241 received graduation

It states that in 1967-68 more
Secondary students than ever
before planned to attend
universities and that, the
Province's new community
colleges werealso attracting an
increasing number of secondary
school graduates.
Teachers' colleges were
winning out over schools of
nursing in attracting Grade 13
girls. For years, the report states,
the two have been about equally
successful in enrolling Grade 13
girls but the teachers', colleges
have• now moved ahead. In
1967-68, the report states, 3,297
Grade 13 girls entered teachers'
colleges _ while 1,593 entered
nursing. However, nursing also
attracted 1,045 Grade 12 girls.
Of the 57,799 boys studied in
the 1967-68 school year, the
main. groups were 20,036
entering employment, 17,844
planning to continue their
education in Ontarid and 11,335
who did not -know their plans at
the time of the study. in
addition, 3,569 were
unemployed and 2,409 left
Ontario. Of the 20,036 who
entered the employment market
in Ontario, 5,949 became
laborers, 4,333 entered trades
and 2,520 entered clerical work.
Of the 57,799 boys, 31,006
received graduation diplomas
and of these 13,881 were
honour graduates. An additional
3,775 boys received certificates
of standing in two-year progranis
or certificates of training. in
occupational courses.
There were 6,924 boys who
" received, ,statements of standing
on partial completion. of their
courses. A total of 13,r60 boys
left secondary school -without
certificates or diplomas. •
The 53,047 girls studied in
the 1967-68 school year
included 17, 612 planning to
continue their education, 17,389
entering employment, 8,549
whose plans were unknown and
'2,183 who left Ontario. There
were also 2,069 who left school
to be married, and about_.3,500
who were unemployed.
The number of graduation
diplomas and honour graduation
diplomas was much the same as
that for the boys with 14,024
girls receiving honour graduation -
diplomas and 17,367 receiving
graduation diplomas.
In addition about 7,000 girls
(approximately the same
number of boys) received
statements of standing on partial
completion of their courses.
There were 1,788 girls receiving
certificates of training in
occupational courses, and 926
who received certificates of
standing in two-year programs.
,A total of 9,944 girls left
secondary schools without
certificates.
Almost all of the 733 boys
and 3,39,5 girls intending to go
to teachers' colleges held honour
graduation diplomas.

There are 1,2.30 students
enrolled at the Doon campus of

Kitchener this fall, President J.

in Clinton last week
"I'he, new . community college

Many students enrolled in
technology courses receive
industry support; said Mr.
• Church. Every company which
helped with bursaries for tuition
last year renewed its
commitment this year and two
companies doubled their
contributions, he added.
Construction of buildings at
the new campus is two to three
weeks behind schedule, Mr.
Church said," but orientation
went well last week and the -
students seemed to take the lack
of space,in stride. ...
Stanley Norton, a
representative of the Dept. of
Education, commented that
there was an opening in the
province's community colleges
for every qualified applicant this
fall, although not every one was
able to enrol in the 'course he
most desired. Most did get their
first -choice course selection,
however, Mr. Norton said.

Achoo achoo!
The season for sneezes,
coughs, sniffles, fevers and
influenza is fast approaching,
and with it mother the cook,
laundress, ''.shopper and
housecleaner takes on the.
additional role of home nurse.
Mothers should plan a routine
to fit sickroom chores into
family life. This relieves some of
the extra strain illness in the
home brings to them and other
family members.
The drug industry -sponsored
Council on Family Health in
Canada says you can save
yourself worry and extra steps
by making out a work plan.
Write down what needs to be
done for the patient, the home
and the rest -of ,he family, then
fit them together so everything
can be accomplished.
The council says ' little
children get into accidents when
they are hungry or insufficiently
supervised, so regular mealtimes
must be maintained. Make sure
your children are in a safe play
area while you are in the
patient's room.
And there's more to being a
good home nurse than knowing
how to give medicine properly.
A cheerful attitude and
pleasant atmosphere in the home
are also important aids'. to
recovery, says the council, a
non-profit public service
organization, •which promotes
family health and safety.
Here are some professional
guides to help you think like a
-nurse:
Wash your hands whenever
you deillfOthirnd for the patient,
and . again • after .your task is.
completed. ,
Keep bed linens. free frOrn:. .
wrinkles and crumbs, whicuu can .
cause discomfort arid bedsoxes.
Be careful notjt.o shake .dust
or lint into the ai* of the room
when changing bed linens. And
use a damp cloth'when cleaning
the sickroom ... dust can be
discomforting to a sick person.
If the patient is a small child
or helpless adult, place chairs ,
against the side of the bed to
prevent t'he patient from rolling
over the side.
If there is no regular bed` table
for servingli_ meals, adjust an
ironing board so one end
projects over the bed.
Try to make trays. neat,
attractive and colorful when
preparing and serving meals.
Change the- patient's position
frequently, to avoid continuous
pressure on°any skin area, and if
the pressure of covers bothers
th4 patient, , use a roiled -up
blanket or pillow at the foot to
lift the weight. •
Ventilate the room, but make
sure the patient is not in a draft.
Let out stale air and let in fresh
air by opening the window from
the top and bottom. If there is
no screen to protect th, patient
... improvise one. Place chairs
between the bed and the
window and cover the chairs
with blankets.
The council also advises'
mother to urge the family to
keep noise to a minimum,
because ill persons are unusually
sensitive to noise.
Hospital convention will .study prevention
