This Week 'M the Seaforth Mg
(By Jackti9
The tenz:perature rises ---our spirits:
-go down; and with 'repsen, too, ;Phot
Tamen are coming; in fact they start in
two week's, on Friday, June! 11. Flo,
ams mean study, and who wants to;
or is able, to studs these .sunny; wart
days and sul't><y\ nights; But the
studying must -be done, ere say the,
teachers, We've had a. bit of a re-
spite from that disagreeable tattle late-
ly. 'Last Friday' our long-awaited
Cadet inspection took place in the
morning and we had the rest of the
day off. Monday, the 24th, was a
holiday also, of course . so that com-
e pleted one of those all -too -rare events,
a long week=end.
Friday morning a gratifyingly large
crowd of friends and relatives of the
Cadets, and some members of the
. High School Board, were on hand to
watch the inspection. All in all, the
whole show went off well, in spite of
the C.Q„ some jerk named Wallace,
who manages W mess up some of his
orders. The other Wallace, 31m, who
was drummer, did a ire job, and aid-
ed our„marchang greatly. Major Reid
. •was the inspecting officer, accompan-
y._ ied by Lieut. Irwin. Major Reid, in
his address to the Cadets at•the close
of the inspection, commended all on
their fine work. C. A. Barber, chair -

gratulated cadets, officers and in.

V(zilsQn,
Friday afternoon the R.C,A.F, Radio
School at 'Clinton sent a bus down
and took twenty-four boys and Mr.
Silcox up to the school for the after-
noon. For conrvenience, the ' large
group was split into two smaller
groups, and each took the same tour
of the station. Besides the conduct-
ed tour of the living quarters, class-
rooms, kitchens, dining and recrea-
tion rooms and the heating plant,
many displays of the uses of radar
in flying and ground work were
shown. In addition, two moving pic-
tures were shown, one on camouflage
and one on the workings of the air
raid warning, plotting and defence
system used during the war. W.O. 1
Lewington gave a talk, explaining
briefly the principles and basic work-
ings of radar. W.O. Watson was in
charge of the tour.•

S.H.B. and environments have tak-
en
aken on the appearance of a farm late-
ly. There is the beehive, where 6,000
of the little buzzers' are working bus-
ily, (Incidentally, shortly after their
arrival from S•outb Carolina, or was
it North Carolina, some of the boys
had a certain gullible First Form
Miss almost persuaded that the bees
had taken the morning train back to
Carolina. How about it, Miss B?).
Then there is the henhouse, henless
right now, and in the field south of
the high school campus, a test plot
Of seer beans bas been sown, along
with the other ordinary garden vege-
tables. Probably the next thing will
be the purchase of a tractor or team
of horses, and the moving of the
whole school out into the country.
That looks like the end of it for
this run; it seems that everyone is
too absorbed in sleeping or studying
to cause much mischief, so that's
lacking this week. If the teachers
weren't working so hard on reviews,
etc„ they would probably enjoy the
peace and quiet!

MacDonald's Dough Girls, played
their first scheduled game Wednes-
day evening at the Lions Park against
Brussels. The more experienced Brus-
sels lassies proved too much for the
locals, although it was 'anyone's game
up to the last two innings. The en-
couraging feature of the locals, how-
ever, is the fact that they show
marked improvement every time out
and promise to be in at the top when
the season's schedule ends: The Anal
score was Brussels 13, Seaforth S.
League President Dr. Paul Brady
presided over an executive meeting
of the Legion juvenile softball league
on Wednesday night, when the sche-
dule was drawn up.

sr•ish and O'Shea's. Tigers this. Thurs-
day evening. There will be no games
scheduled. after June 9 till July 3, in

doubt in anyone's mind that the
fact still remains:

New Dual -Purpose Sheep Promising
In 1935 a sheep breeding program
was begun at the Dominion Range
Experimental Station at Manyberries,
Alta. Romney Marsh rams imported
from Oregon were mated to selected
native Rambouillet ewes of the best
available type. A consistent policy of
inbreeding with rigid selection was
followed. The result is a new breed
of Canadian sheep now in the mak-
ing called Romnf'let, a,corbination of
the names of the foundation stock,
Romney and Rambouillet. The new
breed shows encouraging evidence of
its ability to assume the role of a
dual-purpose sheep that can withstand
climatic extremes and at the same

In Eastern Canada, where sheep
production bas been declining in re-
cent years, many experts agree that
a change in the type and breed Of
sheep for commercial production fs
imperative. Meanwhile, work in this
direction is being projected by the
Dominion Experimental Farms.
