In an interview with a grade • thirteen student some of the views of the- upper school stu. dents are reflected. "The new freedom for grade thirteen . is good as it gives us a chance to test our own- responsibtlity:" "So-called 'school spirit' is •hidden. It is not school spirit in the true sense of the word. It is, in reality class spirit." "Some teachers place stu. dents from the 'A' rooms on a higher mental plain than stu- dents in '13','C', or'D'rooms." "The students' council is run mainly by the executive and a few senior students. ,,The young. er g ales don't really care, or are too afraid to speak out." "The school flag is sharp."

The term architect, has beefs, used. to describe master -buil& ers since the dawn of history. It is known as themother of the arts." ' In designing a building the architect must consider the factors of space, strength Of • its parts. and materials news. sary,. He then uses this infor. nation to create a building that Will • serve its purpose and at the same time impart a quality of beauty to the observer. The architect prepares sket• ches for a client after consul. Cation concerning the use and position of the building. He then prepares working drawings and writes up building instructions called specifications. The architect advises the owner on the selection • of the contractor who is to build it. Throughout the construction .period 'he gives advice to the contractor and conducts? inspection of work. mamship and material. The architect may be self. employea ane carry a start or assistants or he may be em. ployed by other architects, governments or businesses. Working conditions are pleas. and p�but some evening work is egta nate between the drafting board in the office and inspections and consultations at the building site. An architect must have an interest in the arts and a ta. lent for drawing. He should have a creative and original turn of mind. Since he is con. cerned with strength and costs a practical point of view is necessary. He must at once be a creaGtive artist, a practical scientist and a business man: -'- The entrance standards to the profession in Ontario require the architect to be a graduate of a university school of ar- chitecture. The University of Toronto, aid McGill University have -chools of architecture. Th.. Grade XIII requirements are English, Mathematics A, Physics and two other courses.

The person works in an archin tect's office as a junior assist• ant and over a period of years and evening school courses may be permitted to sit for the examinations. This preparation ° will usually require from ten to twelve years. • A young graduate usually finds employment with a prac. using architect to gain •exper. ience. Following this, he may become an associate or partner or open his own office. Pro. motion depends largely On na. tive ability and application to work. The architect's fee for designing and supervising the construction of a building is based on the building's cost. Fees range from six to ten per. cent. The average income for architects and engineers re. ported for federal income tax in 1960 was $15,670peryear.Since the prices of buildings has risen rapidly slope then, it would seem the architects' feeswould have gone up as well. Architecture offers a chal. lenge in that each buildl'ig de. sign is different in shape and materials. There is a great op. portunity for self-expression and certainly a keen sense of satisfaction Fomes from creat. ing a building. It is not a profession for someone who wants to make a lot of money early in his car. ver. The student must wait a icing time to realize an ade. investment. Two related occupations are architectural technologist and drafting technician both of which require Grade XII or entry'as an adult student.
