Brigantine
calls at
Goderich
The Brigantine
PATHFINDER, from Toronto,
called at Goderich last Saturday
on its way back from a training
trip to northern waters.
dCaptain Maurice Smith
brought the ship into port under
the command of her youthful
watch officers using soundings
and arrived at the dock at 3 a.m:
She left late- Sunday.
During her stay here the crew
was taken on a tour of the town
on a bus provided by the town
and in return " the ship was
thrown open to visitors. Captain
Smith had the sails„hoisted and,
the vessel sailed around the inner
harbour for an hour under the
command - of 16 'year old
Executive Officer Cooke. The
skipper stayed on shore and
witnessed with the rest of the
onlookers one of the finest
examples of seamanship .
'displayed here for many years,

Private music lessons
•
planned for Brookside
At Monday evening's Huron
County Board of Education
meeting, board members voted 7
to 4 in favor of permitting Mrs.
Ruth Alton, RR 7 Lucknow to
give private music lessons''at
Brookside Public School,. during
school hours this corning. year.
- The proposal was adopted on
a trial basis from September
1970 to June 1971 at which
time the experiment ..will be
reviewed with a view to
establishing policy applicable to
the school system.
John D. Cochrane, director of
education, . said students are
allowed up to one half day per
week out of class to take private
music instruction, according to
the department of education
statutes.
,It was felt, added Cochrane,
that permitting the music
teacher to; conduct classes in the,
school would 'cut down on—the
,time students would have to
spend away from class.
"It will take onlya little
better than a half an hour this
way," argued • Cochrane.

"Otherwise the students could
