Yes; another year 'is almost over,
except for the final exams which start
next week. That's really the only

surd and little the , difficnliy was. I'm
sure Mr. Fox often thought he'd ziever,
get it through some •plapil's head's
that a minus .in front of a bracket
changes the signs inside that bracket,
.hut he didn't give up. He continued
to help, that person. Mr. Morrison
likely thought' we'd .]sever remember
to use hydrochloric instead of sur
phuric acid to make carbon dioxide,
but in his capable manlier' everyone
soon learned to use the correct Chem.;
,cal. - •Mr. Slettery probably thought,
"iIow can anyone be so stupid?" and
wondered if we would ever learn our
conjunctions,' or ever be able to dl's-
tinguiah one•, case from another. Miss
Fennel, too, must have thought it
.hopeless that even after all that drill-
ing at the board, we still didn't make
the verb endings agree with the ,sub-
ject, or that reflexive verbs are.: al-
ways conjugated with "etre.'? 'Ntiss
McMillan has reason to wonder how
we could., be so clumsy and awkward
in • our P.T: exercises,; if we'd ever
learn to do the polka correctly, er if
her sewing classes would ever be able
to sew in straight lines. And last,'
but not at all the least, Miss Belch.,
I'm sure she thought it utterly hope-'
less that we'd ever remember our
dates, for instance, the Battle of
Hastings, 1066, or the Bill of Rights,
1689. Then, ••in our spelling, she could•
almost be sure of. someone, putting
an "e" on cat.
yes -I'll bet there was many an in-
stance when every teacher was •exas
peratedl and felt like giving up, and if
everyone was like me -I don't blame
the teachers! But on behalf of every-
one, I'd like to thank all the teachers
for their encouragement and assist-
ance during the past year, and wish
them a. very happy and refreshing
summer vacation.
Well! Well! A new girl student in
the schogl, or was it for the moment
just •a' transformation? No, I guess
it was neither. It was 'just Davy -
Wilson. He came out of the girls'
door one after four with half a dozen
girls .-on ;each arm.. His new 'name
was "Penelo.pe," and everyone shout-
ed their greetings to him, • as a; new
girl friend and extended their wishes
for him to come over to their house
for the evening. -Gee, ul
Davy,'
Wodn't
that be nice? But Davy,' don't you
think you'd better stay over on ,your
own 'side?
Last Friday we. were entertained by
some pictures, the last for this year,
but we had his 'word that if he is
in this,districtwe would continue to
have• pictures next year..
'' Monday we • were delighted again
with a song by our lovely Lois Whit-
ney. She sang that fascinating song,'
"Amapola." Thanks a lot, Lois, and
whenever you're. here again you'll
come and 'see ,ns again,..Kpn't yqu?
Boy! "Young man 1-1uisser must
have -been 'hungry • one m66tnng, so
hungry that he had to chew !grass • t�

there 'so thoughtfully, looking ' just
like a cow! Others "thought so too,
because someone yelled out to him:
"Are you ready to .milk yet?" Poor
Francis, we know you just wanted
something to cries- on -nerves.. you

of something else, s toothpick per-

Eleanor, it isn't summer. yet! You
might catch cold getting wet so soon.

• It is fortunate for 'mankind that
science bas kepttpace with,the spread
of garden pests.. In pioneer gardens
there were no potato bugs. no.. cut
wdrms and little disease. Today, 'un-
fortunately, ,there is a special pest
for almost ebery flower and vegetable
and more seem to appear e'ach year.
However,. also appearing are better
sprays, dusts and other control mea-
sures, some of hem like the new DDT
and 2-4-D being revolutionary in'•re-
sults.
As insect or disease usually strike
suddenly and in force capable of de-
stroying the whole garden in a few
days, experts advise being continual-
ly on the alert and also having a sup-
ply of • defensive material on hand.
The best protection is a healthy gar-
den, grownfrom good disease -resist-'
ant seed, wall cultivated and free of
weeds. The latter is iglportant• . as
bugs harbor among weed .growth
waiting until the .garden stuff iss.big
enough for a raid.
Generally speaking there are three
methods of attach and all are easily
recognized. The1°e are bugs that eat
holes it the foliage. Poison will get
these: • There are bugs that suck out
the juices and the plant will, wither,
These must be attacked with it spray
that will burn. DigeaSe banally hits
the plant cells aiid causes withering
'or rot in blackish. •spots. Chemicals
1(k'e.sillphiir are ailed, in' this, ease.
of plants do.
This too -early planting, also, has
another disadvantage. Usually alt,
seed or space is used up too soon
and even if weather Is favorable .the
result is too many vegetables ready
for the table in July; not nearly en-
ough coming along in August and
September. The experienced garden -
Usually it is possible to get'ready-
mixed• powders or spray concentrates
that contain a combination of chemi-
cals that will control both kinds of
bugs and most diseases. Often one
good .treatment will be enough, but
with things like leaf hoppers and pot-
ato bugs which lay eggj, two or three
successive treatments to get the
young ones will be needed. A cheap
Sprayer. or a porous sack for the dust
will be all that the• average gardener
requires. Most chemicals lose their
potency in time so a fresh supply
each season is necessary. Above all,
the important hing is o be ready for
immediate counter attack before the
enemy gets out of control. •
Avoid These• Mistakes
Two of -the, commonest „mistakes of
the average gardener, especially the
one of limited experience, are plant-
ing
lanting far too much too soon and not
planting enough in late May and
June. During the •first warm weeks
of spring practically every human be-
ing has the urge to get out and dig.
He rushes to the pearest seed store,
gets supplies and is liable to put in
a whole lot of things which should'
never be planted until the soil"'and
air warm up premanently.
Sueh a course usually reaults in
lona and discouragetnent. Peas, greed
seed and a few hardier floWers. and
vegetables don't mind quite a lot of
cold and wet, but the great Majority.
er will always divide his seed into at
least three parts -risking the first £""' •:
little ahead of the regular -planting
time.. putting in •lite second about the
normal time,'and saving the last un- '
til at least two to three. weeks ,after
that. This gives hiin a, •contineone .
supply of the very freshest vegetables'
right through the season:, • -
