Love
Love.. The essence of beauty.
The sweet lingering remem-
brances of fleeting moments and
golden drops of burning passion.
Love is the most beautiful thing
• in the world. The most essential.
Love melts , a caged and frozen
heart. It makes you laugh and
sparkles your eyes with the
glitter of joy,. It makes' you cry
and . wrenches your heart into
tearful fragments.
When a child is born it thrives
on love. Love fills its small dark
world. and soft caresses soothe
its.lonely whimpers. It seems to
be that we cannot survive without
:he warmth of love.

Interview

E. Madill S.S., and occupant of
room 206, was born and raised in
Dufferin County. near Shelburne.
His secondary school education
came _from Shelburne High
School. with post secondary
education from•the University of
Western Ontario. After univer-
sity Mr. Farnell got into the area
of electronics.. For eight years he
worked in the Canadian Arsenal,
near Montreal, for the Korean
War. After this Mr. Farnell got

effective speaking club which is .

Lions and the Oddfellows group
•
...Lions
and March.
Mr. Farnell feels that school
spirit is •good and that when it is
needed it's there. In comparing
the school spirit of the two
schools in .which he has taught,.
Mr. Farnell feels that the spirit at
Sydenham was better because it
'was smaller. at that time and, he
feels. easier to have a better
school spirit.
Mr Farnell says he likes F. E.
Madill. and he is pleased with the
administration.
Outside the school, Mr. Farnell
is busy in the Anglican Church.

Christmas is just around the
corner. Everyone is running
around doing last minute shop-
ping and worrying about his
money disappearing too fast.
People pushing and shoving their
u ay through the stores.
That is not`the way to think of
Christmas. It is a time of
feelings. Depression can set in. It
could be that you cannot afford'a
present for your sister or that you
feel left out because you are not
in the Christmas Spirit. Whatever
the reason, this is the season to
smile at your enemies and shout
"Merry Christmas” wherever
you go. Many of us feel happy and
loving from the festive season. As
soon as 1 bought my first present,
I was in the Christmas spirit and
can hardly wait for the 25th.
It isnot the gift itself but the
time and thought that someone
spent on looking for that special
gift for you. A simple "Merry
Christmas", expressed in a
special way just for you can
mean so much. It takes only a lot
of thought to please so many. We
are all capable of that.
Jesus Christ was born, to us
many years ago. He represents a
symbol of birth. He has continued
to live in our lives and show us
love. A love that continues not
just ,until the end of this year but
all the ones to come. It is just
easier for us to express our love
at Christmas than any other time
because of the exchange of gifts.
• When we were young children,
Santa Claus represented the jolly
old man who came around on
Christmas Eve to give all the
little boys and girls presents. As
we get older, we tend to laugh at
the thought, of believing in Santa
Claus, "Who says there isn, t
one?" Doesn't he show us how
happy we can he at this time of
the year? His red suit represents
love. The old man symbolizes
Christmas is for all ages. Every-
one feels the same at •Christmas
time. Santa Claus touches all
hearts alike.
•
Christmas is a special time of
the year and we all have to
participate in making it a good
time for everyone else. In that
way, we make it a time to
remember for ourselves without
even trying.
