Good luck boys and keep up the good record. tension of the council that the chocolate bars aren't selling. It was moved by Janet McKinley that the price of the chocolate bars be lowered to 50c, The council will be selling at a loss but it- was thought that a slight loss would be better than stale chocolate bars. These bars will be on sale in the School Shop. This motion was seconded by Brenda McKinley. After discussion, it was moved by Wilmar Bakker that the students' fees be raised to $5 from $3 dollar. The student's fee has remained the same for about the last 10 years. This will enable more student council sponsored events next year. This motion was seconded by Dave Counter. On behalf of the__.

Thompson then this meeting Although fnany people felt that this year decorations were the best in their memories, the attendance was down this year as compared to past y ears , with only • 83 paid couples at' tending. Since there seemed to be no drastic mistakes made anywhere, why the loss of $900? We carefully budgeted all of our expenses tillthey totalled ap- prox(mately $1.600 so again we ask why the loss? This drastic loss of money can be attributed to several causes, one being the date. It seems that although we planned on April 30 as the. date for our formal, Goderich Collegiate also planned their formal for the same night. We at C.H.S.S. have often changed the dates for dances for the Goderich high school, and were determined that this was one time that we would not change. As a result, it seems that we were the ones to suffer over this discrepancy. Also many grads are under the impression that a formai is a "stuffy" affair. but those of us who attended (even the ones who couldn't dance) found that a formal can really be a lot of fun. Naturally the music is different to the rock 'n roll we usually listen to, but it is always nice to have a change. As various methods to remedy this type of loss in the future it has been suggested that we should cut down on decorations, having only a minimum as compared to this year's extravaganza; also, we should spend more money on the band as one person was noted for voicing that they thought "this year's band would go to sleep on us." One person suggested we should license the formal, but if the formal is to be a social function for students this action would not Permit the majority of the student body to attend. In closing I wish to state that a majority of senior students feel that the formal is one social function that .� should continue. Also, one must remember that the At -Home is a function for grads and past grads, not just for the community and that its organization should be aimed at them. Long live the At -Home! ust ask Annie! People and prejudices seem to go together as a pair but to me, parents and prejudice should be married. Everybody has prejudices but parents with teenagers, especially show their negative feelings whether it is directly or indirectly. Parents' prejudices include whether the kids drink, smoke, work or dress dif- ferently and they are con-$ stantly shown. Parents fee.' that unless their "children's" friends are exactly who they would choose. they are no good. In many cases parents use their influence over their sons A C.N.S.S. 5TUDENTS DAM'S A L MAR a1I) .\ \ .tip BE A Q BLOOD DONOR 0 or daughters in order to try and prevent them from associating with people they dislike. In most cases these assumptions are false, however they fail to admit their mistakes and I would love to hear parents apologize. The world has enough prejudices to start with, without adding millions of parents to the list. It is true that nobody is perfect and that nobody is really equal (because of education, en- vironment and opportunities) but maybe if the people with so many "differences" could get together. then maybe a new and better race could develop after all what is so 'great about you and me and our neighbours. If we couldn't produce a more superior race we could• at least get rid of all our lesser people. you never know we might even be able to find world peace or at least family peace. r 1 The Central Huron mixed choir, Called 'tousle , appeared last Tuesday night at the Centennial Band's spring concert.
