Seven Teachers for'H. S.
A seventh teacher ha been engaged
by the Wingham High School Board
in the person of Mi. A. Chas. Ander-
son, NB.A., who is a Wingham boy well
known to the students of the school.
The H. S. Board are finding a good
deal of difficulty in getting acconto-
dation and the Inspector has been ur-
ging for some time that an addition
would have to be built to' the school
Unless some steps are taken to-' pro-
vide more accomodation the Govern-
ment grant will be cut off, and flans
Wingham will be at a great expense
in making this sum up yearly.
Splendid New Road Book
An entirely new form of road guide
is being published this week under the
direction of A. A. Briggs, Advertising
Manager of the Dunlop Tire & Rub-
ber Goods Company Limited. The
book, the culmination of more than
two year's work by the author, has
had for its object the compiling, pri-
marily, of mileage information he-
tes-een every point in the Province, but
it also serves as a condensed. guide 1.0
summer hotels,' camp sites and golf
clubs, and provides data on every
scenic trip of note within the area cov-
ered.
Its chief object, its author, Mr.
Briggs, stated yesterday, is to make
O visit by road to Ontario's many sum-
mer resorts both easy and pleasant.
In the volume Toronto, as the Capital
city, is taken as the pivoting point, and
a series of maps follow in sequence
around Lakes Ontario, Erie, Huron
and Georgian Bay, Starting at Tor-
onto again — Or continuing on from
Gravenhurst—the motorist has it con-
tinuous passage north and northwest.
Commencing at Toronto once more
the journey is continuous east or north
or east and north. The tourist, of
course, using the book, can map out
his own course on any basis he likes,
since the various subdivisions include
the names of points of interest which
are not shown on any of the standard
