School seems like a funny
place to be,
When I'd rather be sitting
under a tree.
But they say we must learn
to read and write,
And you are not allowed ever
to fight.
School is the place where
pencils and pens,
Make their homes and cosy
dens. '
Paper, typewriters, sewing
machines,
Which teachers think •are
very keen.
But just wait to see what we
must eat,
In the cafeteria; so tough,
the meat.
And texts, quizs and exams
galore,
They always seem so much a
bore.
The thing that we look forall
week,
Friday night is what we
seek.
But Monday mornings, hear
the groans,
Aches and pains all through
our bones.
Morning announcements
ring through the air,
Homerooms buzzin', They
don't care,
Math, Science, Typing, we
must take,
And many more to take the
cake.

Boys fighting for backseats,

nterview
I enjoy reading and liter-
ature and I like students. I
also have an 'aunt (I was
named after her) who was a
, teacher and she seemed to
have everything, so .I be-
lieved teachers had every -
thing "
Do you enjoy teaching just
English or would you like to
broaden your horizons?
"I have taught phys. ed.,
business practice and his-
tory but I like English best.
You could say that I have
narrowed my horizons."
Which grade do you- find the'
most pleasure to teach?
"I like the different grades
for different reasons. The
grade nines are fun to teach
because I can mother them,
ask them if they made their*
beds and they are so inno-
cent. I enjoy teaching grade
12 students because they are
like adults and are blooming
authors to me."
If you had not become a
teacher what other field
would you have gone into?
"Nothing else, except a do-
mestic engineer."
Could you define what
teaching means to you?
"To teach is to lead stu-
dents through life with all its
opportunities and help them
to appreciate the world. I be-
lieve that the little quotation
on my coffee cup says it all:
'Learning is a pleasure;
teaching is a joy."'
What do you believe is the
correct age for a teacher to
retire?
"There isn't one but then I
wouldn't want to decide that
for anyone else."
What else has been the
highest point in your
teaching career?
"The fact that I have
taught successful writers
like Alice Munro or times
when my students win aagk
tests for their writing ab.. y
or when they respond with
enthusiasm to a piece of
literature
Does it bother you when a
student from your class
fails?
"Yes, because I like to see
people succeed at what they
attempt especially those who
could have done the work
and did not. I am upset when
people do not meet their po-
tential ; do not achieve the
best that they can."

Book re vie w
Where Eagles Dare
BY CLINT PEWTRESS
Although Where Eagles
Dare has been on the market
for a few years now I feel it
hasn't received the credit it
really deserves.
In this novel Allistair Mac-
Lean shows a flare for de-
scription and accuracy for
which he is famous, taking
the reader first from cold
and foggy England to the
snow covered , . Bavarian
Alps.
From the beginning of the
story a strange cloak of mys-
tery envelopes the plot and
its characters. The story and
plot move at a breathtaking
pace until the final few pages
when MacLean does an ,ex-
cellent job of tying together
the string of events that
make the story such a grip-
ping one:
The general plot is that of
murder and spies in the
British intelligence service;
and a deadly charade that is
to completely trick the war-
lords of Germany. MacLean
has done an excellent job of
weaving fear, confusion and
the ' arrogance of Hitler's
elite.
Where Eagles Dare is one
of MacLean's many breath-
taking books!

It bothered me. Don't ask
why. It just did. I often
wondered what went through

this. Just then, disturbing
my thoughts, I felt sonie-

sheets, I saw two amber eyes
reflecting the moon from my
window. It was Scrappy, my

ignore him, but it did no
good. Scraps began to tickle
my toes with his whiskers.
Finally, too tired to be
amused, I gave him a bunt
on the nose with. my foot. In
reply, Scraps just wriggled
his way up through the
layers of sheets and placed
his head beside mine on the
pillow, looking at me with
large sad eyeswhich seemed
to say "Be my friend?" In
spite of myself, I giggled and
gave him a pat. He began to
purr and closed his eyes con-
tentedly. Soon the purring
stopped, replaced with soft
snores.
Suddenly I understood.
Maybe the girl in my class
just needed a friend. I de-

with a little luck . . . just
maybe ... she might smile

The roll call taken from
the 14th chapter of the gospel
according to St. Matthew;
was answered by eight
members. Mrs. Procter read
two articles entitled "The
foundation of Christian
Ethics" and "Bear One
Another's Burdens".
Mrs. Harold Jardin pre-
pared a program on the Nes-,
tle boycott which is sup-
ported by the Anglican
Church of Canada. By avoid-
ing purchase of items manu-
factured by the Nestle com-
pany and other companies
controlled by it, we can
make our objections to their
actions felt.
In the poor countries of the
Third World, free samples of
infant formula are given to
mothers of new babies, who
are discouraged from breast
feeding their infants. Due to
poverty and poor sanitation,
the families cannot continue
to purchase the product and
when it is diluted with con-
taminated water, it results in
serious health problems and
death.
Plans were discussed for
the bazaar and tea to be held -
November 14.
' The meeting closed with -
prayer, grace was sung and
lunch served by the hostess.
