"What a smell!" as -they ran Pint of

'they just couldn't stand it, so 'they

Ryan, even lost her 'voice for a few
minutes!
But that wasn't the, only smell last
.week that the,, (kids Of the• S.H.S. gat
hold of. For ' a'•few days, everytime
anyone walked' by ,the school campus,
he either held 'his nose or ran as. fast
'as his legs would carry "him, for
raro,nd that vicinity some "fertilizer"
had been spread ,on a 'lot across -from
the' school, and it just. didn't smell
like clover! ,One girl exclaimed, "If
this is spring weather, bring, back
the winter!" Another yelled, "If this
is. what the country is like, give me, -
the city!" However, we don't...sz tell.
it anymore, and there are. tv%. ,lion.,
sible reasons why: First;beta!ts�e,;
maybe we're used to the sinal ' pde, ^;

Tuesday morning we'.had the *iv-.
ilege of- listening to 'one .of the finest,
speeches ever presented in the• High'
School.. Mr. Arnold Turnbu'll,..a gradu-,
ate of the school, now secretary with
.:the 'Imperial Life Insurance Co. 'In
London, England, 'talked to us abaft'
' the civilian life in London during :the
• •years 'of war. Never did an hour pass
• so quickly. for us, because' the talk
was about the blackouts;' the .man*
of bombing and especially the •-r#',
tions,
truly - intrigued us; M Torn
bull said that they, .over in Englan,
couldn't picture a country having
most everything they 'wanted, andel,
i, most as much •of it. as they wantid
and he said 'he thought it would', e'l
hard for him to •get back onto his
diet, when .he goes' (back over. 'Yes,
I'm :sure we in Canada, can't even im-
agine what they have gone through
for us. Have we really' considered
how well we have got along during
this war Compared to other countries?'
We may have been without butter or
sugar for a couple of daysv, but-"tliey
over there went without more 'than
.. butter' and sugar for more than ' a
couple 'ef days. And if anyone I who
ever complained of not being able to
buy somethi heme-here, had heard
that speech, he would want to' take'
'back every word of complaint he .,ever
said. Yes, It really 'was a wonderful
•epeec.h,' and we hope you visit• us
again next time you. are home, Mr.
^fi urnbull.

Discussions aboutexams-are quite
frequent in upper school these days.
Kids, ,were •talking, about how• much
sleep they should get -;during exam
time. They didn't agree that getting
up early in the morning or staying
,up late at night was any good. Doris
Ferguson • says: ,"Why, that's when" I
get most' ofl my sleep—when I'm writ-
ing exams!" And Don Munn brightly'

(Continued from Page 1)
other of the school areas'i'.The county
council then adopts a bylaw incorpor-
ating' the requests of the municipali-
ties and the new system becomes ef-
fective on 'the succeeding January 1.
At this time a new board, consisting
Of one representative from each of
the municipalities , forming the area,
one representative. from the county,
and one each 'from -the public and
separate schools in the •town in which
the school is ,lpcated takes over oper-
ation of the school.
Mr. Duffin pointed out' the situa-
tion that would_ arise should, say,
Wlugham• not form an area and Me•
Killop did not enter • the Seaforth
area,. VI/Ingham requires a new school,
halt the 'cost of which would be borne
'by that portion of the county at large
which was not contained in a school
area. This would mean that McKillop
would contribute to a school in Wing -
ham through the township's, county
rate.
"Reeve. Dorrance • told the meeting
the reason the council wished 'an. ex-
pression from,. the ratepayers before
committing the township. A petition
had been: receivedfrom ratepayers in
the northern portion of the township
requesting the continued operation 'of
the present system and ratepayers in
.the'-east`..h'ad advanced z'epresentatons
concerning the operation of the Dub.:,
lin continuation school. He read,' a
statement indieating the cost of sec-
ondary schools to the .township .since
1938; which follow: '1938, $2,387,79
1939, $2,671,21; • 1940, $2,,708.65; ' 1941,
$2,770.98; 1942, $3,071.12;' 1943, $3,-
377.59; 1944, $3,700.00; 1945, $4,090.05.
These figures include the per pupil
day cost' and the 50 per cent county
at large cost. In 1945 from the town-
ship there were 2,857 pupil days at
eaforth, 519 .at ' Brussels,. 2,833 at
Dublin, and, 119. at Mitchell,- If it 'was

The Seaforth high ..ac hMQl is now, Pp-
erating . olt . an average of $150 ,per

Fear was expressed by J. M. Eckert
that the cost of traniiPprtation would•
have 'a tendency to 'inerease as de-
mantis- for • house-tp.bouse service
erase. He questioned', the equity .0f
the proportion, of cost as between
'the urban and rural+° '.municipalities.
On, a per capita basis $'eafoyth would
pay -$1.20, while VicKltlop would Pay
$3.55. Mr. Duffin pointed out that ,the
tax is based on local assessment, not
"the equalized assessm.eiit and since
looalt' rural assessments are on an
average 15 to 209 Per Gent lower than.
the equalized and the re=verse is true
in case•of urban centres.; this reduces
the differenceby at leant 30 per cent.
There is the added 'factor that in
towns the citizens pay in many eases
og two assespments,'their residences
add their businesses: .
Education should be planned in
such a way that it is available equal-
ly to all, regardless Of location, Gor-
don Megavin told the meeting. This
makes necessary busses. While "it
might be .of slight 'benefit to certain
sections of the , township to remain
out of a school area,' the requirements
of all the citizens throughout the
township as a • whole far outweighed
any" slight disadvantages, he felt.
ln' answ.er to a query by the chair-
man, Mr. Duffin said pupils in a school'
area -could attend schools other than
the area ,school if (a) another school
was closer and more convenient, and
(b). if another school provided facili-
ties or courses not available :in, the
area school..'' In such cases the costs
of the pupil would be a charge against
the school area and this expense
would be partially, reimbursed in the
normal manner by, grants. Chairman
C.. M.' Smith., df the Seaforth Board,
advised the meeting approval • had
been granted for a commercial course
and application. had• been made fo'r an
agriculture department. •
The necessity.,of the township tale
ing action .at this, time -was pointed
out by Mr. McKercher. If there was
delay, other ' townships' may' enter
other areas and at a later date when
McKilloli did -renter the area, the as-
sessihent. would thus be considerably
lower and the cost. higher.
• Queried as to the existing deben-
ture. debt of 'the Seaforth. school,
Secretary M,. A. Reid said the unpaid
balance. was $23,000; •on Nyhich annual'
payments covering principal and..in-
terest amounted to',$2';110.83.
Summing up ,the discussion, Mr:
Duffin 'said the. decision rested ,on the
council: While consideration must be
given to small groups, experience has
shown 'that many sign 'petitions• with-
out f-ulL,•information, but later change
their minds. In arriving At a decision'
