SEAFORTH HIGH SCHOOL
PLANS EXPANSION
The Seaforth High School Board
has entered upon a. plan of great ex-
pansion o educational facilities'
which will be made available to the
highschool students of the Seaforth
Area. Pupils now in attendance come
from the Township of Hullett, Mc-
Killop, Hibbert, and Tuckersmith
and Grey, it addition to the town of
Seaforth. To accommodate the in-
creased attendance, a large addition
was erected in 1988 at a
$48,000. of which only $23os0 if
now outstanding -in debentures. Thus
the ratepayers of the Seaforth High
School Area have but a small debt
to liquidate.
For the ;lost 7 years in addition to
the regular academie courses leading
to college and university, the Board
has been providing courses in home
economics, agriculture, manual train-
ing, physical training and music. It
is the intention to enlarge some of
these courses, particularly thatin
agriculture and to add a special
course in business education. The
present bus service now serves Mc-
I{illop and is expected to be 'expand-
ed to cover additional: territory as
soon as the registration of pupils
justifies the expansion.
A tour through the Seaforth
High School is a revelation to per-
sons
ersons who are not acquainted with
modern educational methods and any
one would be well repaid by paying
a visit to the high school to see and
inspect the present greatly expanded
facilities.
A specialinvitation has been pub-
lished to the ratepayers' and parents
of prospective pupils in the .. Sea -
forth Area, -to be held in the Sea -
forth Town Hall at three o'clock on
the afternoon of Tuesday, March 19.

DIRECTOR OF TORONTO CO.
Charles C. Dynes, K. C. of Ham-
hirci, President of the Toronto Mu-
tual Life Insurance Company, we-
t
'e-
(ported substantial increases in new
,business, insurance in force and to-
'tal assets as evidence of another
year of progress for the Company,
In his address to the Annual Meet-
ing, Mr, Dynes said, in part, 'It is to
tie a, natter. of personal gratification
to be able to report to the policy-
holders, members in fact of this
Company, that their Company has
cone through the difficult war
years proud of our contribution to
victory, with assets unimpaired, and.
now financially in a stronger posi-
tion than at any time in its history.
"The incentive to thrift and saving
in this country is being jeopardized
by the persistent pressure of a cam-
paign for low interest rates. The
holders of high-grade bonds are en-
titled to a moderate interest return
on their savings invested that way;
the trustees of the premium paid to
them by over four million life insur-
ance policyholders in Canada are in
the same position. "It is the savings
of individuals which compose the
wealth; in other words, the well
being of this country. On the other
hand, it is the wastefulness of indi-
viduals which occasions the impov-
erishment of the State. Every thrifty
person may be regarded as a public
benefactor, and every thriftless per-
son as a public enemy.
