AUTO ELECTRIC 355 JOSEPHINE ° STREET 357.1416 A MOTHER'S DAY CONTEST STORE Trip to museum for Latin classes BY CATHY WENGER The Grade 11 and 12 Latin students experienced an unusual adventure last Thursday --a field trip to Toronto. You may wonder just what relation such a voyage would have with Latin. We visited the Royal Ontario Museum where we actually saw, things that we have been learning about f o r the past two or three years. At 9:10,fifty-three excited students, along with Miss Bes- wetherick and Mr. Dennis, La- tin teachers, piled themselves into every available nook and cranny of the working bus. Ac- commodations were somewhat cramped, but with three in a seat and chairs in the aisles, we were finally set to shove off. We ar-iived at the museum at about 12:30. The trip instilled quite an appetite in the students, so be- fore starting our explorations in the building we ate lunch. Hun- ger pangs satisfied, we got down to business. The students were divided into groups, and taken on a guid- ed tour of the galleries pertain- ing to our Latin history. We were then given time on our own to pursue our own particular in- terests. There wasn't nearly enough time to even catch a glimpse of all we wanted to see. By three o'clock we were ready to head for home. There was a mad rush of students as they stampeded to the bus-, hop- ing to grab a seat in which they wouldn't have to double up. Re- covering from the exciting af- ternoon, a few people taught a bit of sleep on the way home. By the time we reached Blue - vale a rumor started up from the balk of the bus., informing us that two of the girls were missing! At first we laughed. That's the kind of thing you read about, but never witness. Well, we witnessed it! •Sure enough we had left two behind. Luckily the girls had relatives in Toron- to, and were able to get home safely. Miss 'Be andlvir. innrs are to be commended for their courage in hearding our 'boist- erous group on the expedition. We appreciated it! Assemblies to be held on ..Mondays A new idea was introduced into, the school agenda on Mon- day. It was the Council's idea that the students should be more informed about what's going on around the school. Every Monday at 9:10 the student body will file into the auditorium for an assembly. The announcements of plans for upcoming events in the school ,will be made a t this time. • Monday's trial for this plan seemed highly successful. • . G�fodb Easter Thankoffering The Easter. Thankoffering meeting of the Goforth Evening Auxiliary of St. Andrew 's Church' was planned by Mrs . Jack McBurney, convener, as= sisted by . Mrs. Ken McKague, Mrs. James Lee, Mis. Gerald Smith, Mrs. J. Alexander and Irlma Casemore.• Mrs. McBurney and Mr s. Smith read the Easter lesson from the Bible. An illustrated meditation on the life of Christ from the cradle to the cross and the resurrection was given by Mrs. McKague and Mrs. J. • Moffat singing the solo selec- tions. An Easter poem was.read by Mrs. McBumey, and Mrs. Alexander led in prayer. President, Mrs. Ed Beard, conducted the business and the minutes were read by Mrs. R. MacDonald. Mrs. Smith ded- icated the offering. .Mrs- H. Bateman played the music from Iandel's Hallelujah Chorus as a piano solo. Mrs. G. Fish introduced the speaker, Mrs. Lome Sparks of South Kinloss, who has worked with .her husband as a mission- ary in China and in many parts of the United States. • She took as her topic, "How God 'An- swers Prayer" and gave many personal examples of the power of prayer in the life of a Christ- ian. "We must trust In God for things both small and great, Linda Martin, Rick Gardner, Garry Chambers, Judy Riley and Rita Ritsema in the hall between classes .., Math students credit to school Talent seems to be shining forth all over the school this week. ,Not 'only do we find we , have a host of young actors and actresses in our midst, butywe were pleased to hear that we have a few mathematical whizzes in the. crowd also! Reports of the math compe- tition ranked F. F. M a d i l l teams high in both the junior and senior competitions. The Juniors did exceedingly, well! We're proud to report that Joe Kerr stood first, Brad Elliott second and John Ackert and Irmo i?ubelaar were tied-fdr third. Three of these students -composed the team which stood first in the Division. The Divi- sion extends roughly from Or-. angeville over to Waterloo -Ox= ford, and from Elmira and Exe- ter to Goderich and Wingham. e sprat, w�ilx receive a r .esa `►errlhd us affords: The Seniors also made a good showing. They stood 48 out of, 338 schools in the district. The' team was made up of D o u g Garniss, Don Procter and Doug Wheeler. Other entries from the school were Kaye Wood, John Turvey and Bob Black. We're equally as proud of these students. " Debut May 1, 2. We've heard a lot of talk about the upcoming school play entitled SFTHOTWTG. Like to know more about it? The trans- lation of the title is "some fun- ny things happened on the way to graduation. " The play was written by Anne Oldfield. It is a report of amusing incidents occurring throughout her high school years. This is not an ordinary play. You may be surprised to hear that it includes musical num- bers. You didn't know we had talent like that in the schooldid you? Mr. .Jones reported that the cast includes forty some young talents but in total, well over one hundred students are invol- ved since much behind th e scenes work is required for the production. ,,, The play, at present is sched- uuled to alto lace hurssday and Friday nights, May 1st and 2nd. All fingers` are crossed that the success will be 'd emand ing enough for a production on Sat- urday, May 3rd also. All involved, including teach- ers and students, have devoted a great deal of effort to SFTHOTWTG and have well earned, the fame which we're sure they'll get.
