An average xui'al;,Vtaxpayer is pay-
ing at the rate 'of a little •, more
than a .cent a school day, for the
bus service„ and a little less- than
two cents a seismal day for the
other cost's of operating the Sea -
forth High School.
One of the points in which con -
treater Habkirk: takes pride is that
bus routes have been arranged to
provide a maximum -of convenience
to the families who have high
sohool children. Of 108 children
regularly using the bus during
the autumn, 101 ire picked up at
their respective farm gates, or at
the main entrance to the farm.
Only seven pupils have to walk
any distance on a public roadway
to get aboard the school bus.
In the odd -angled road system
south of Seaforth,' in the Chisel -
burst neighborhood, the problem
of arranging two bus routes to
serve pupils to the best advantage
was one to tease the nimblest
brain. This autumn Mr. Habkirk
has revised his routes seveal
times, finally settling on a plan of
one inner 'and one outer loop, the
inner loop zig-zagging so that its
mileage is nearly the same as that
of the outer loop.

The Women's Institutes have
been interested in concrete type
enterprises for 50 years. During
the war the community work fell
off because of the many tangent
things.
Mrs. H•ayes! felt that there are
too many outside appeals for mon-
ey. She advised that the money

Worthy citizens, who' So generously

There are a great many way's to

avenues in this are opening all the
time. We now have the audio-
visual way made possible by the
16 m.m, camera and the sound
truck, with films, supplied by the
.National Film Board. Mrs. Hayes
was very disappointed that so
many adults fail to take advantage
of these showings at the schools.
It lets the children . down; and an
opportunity of real sound education
is passed up by not attending.
Radio listening groups and farm
forums also provide education and
recreation.

spring and fall than the do in
the winter, Mr. Habkirk finds. In
good weather many pupils living in
Egmondville, a mile south of Sea -
forth, prefer to use their bicycles.
When the snowdrifts begin to pile
up, the bicycles go into winter
quarters, and the busses gain pas-
sengers. -
Agriculture is a subject for ev-
erybody who attends Seaforth High
School now. Under the direction
of Lloyd B. Morrison, the depart-
ment of agriculture in the school
has been developed until it forms
a part of the education of every
pupils who goes through the
school, and also reaches out to
make contact with the life of the
rural community beyond the school
walls.
At Seaforth Fall Fair this year
a special department 'was created
for agricultural exhibits by school
pupils; 60 high school students had
entries in the show. At the school'
the students keep 'up bee colonies,
re m eatsS- oseeeear-o' vegetable.
garden. This autumn a group of
Grade 10 pupils have gone on from
learning to research; as an exten-
sion projectfor the, Ontario Agri-
cultural ...Cellege they ar.e...grnwing..
test plots of, six varieties of winter
wheat, and keeping an accurate
comparison of the varieties.
"I think there must be very few
municipalities in Ontario," says
Mr. Plumsteel, "where the local
fair board has done so much to
help the agricultural work in the
school."
Agricultural science is taught as
a classroom subject to all pupils
in Grades 9, 10, 11 and 12; boys
in Grades 9 and 10 get classes in
practical agriculture as an extra
subject. Town boys as well as farm
boys take the agriculture work and
neither Mr. Plumsteel nor Mr.
Morrison can see tbat it is doing
them any harm.
Every boy carries out at least
one home project in agricultural
work, and part of the job of the
teacher of agriculture is to visit
every farm in the school district
that ,has a boy in Grade 9 or 10, to
inspect the. project work being
done at home. Saturdays during
the spring and fall and a good
chunk .of the slumber vacation are
used by the teacher for his visit-
ing work.
Shop work has been taught at
Seaforth for about 10 years, under
the direction of James Slattery.
Now, with the school growing as a
result of bus transportation, the
carpentry and metal -working shops
are busier than ever. The equip-
ment includes such things as a
small- forge, at which the pupils
learn to forge chisels and, punches'
from tool steel, power -driven saws
and drills.
"It's a stimulating experience,"
says MJr. Plumsteel, "to see the
intent and interested look on some
boy's face when he is working in
the school shop, when that same
boy's face may have been dull
and vacant of expression in a
Latin class. 'Pupils can't all be
the same. and there's something
here to catch the interest of the
boy whose nature is to work with
his hands."
In the home economics depart-
-ment, as in the agriculture and
shop classes, no difference is made
between town pupils and farm
pupils. Ail get the same teaching.
As well as the traclltional cooking
and sewing, the Seaforth school
is now teaching the other arts of
home -making —• use of cleaning
equipment, laundering methods,
table -setting, entertaining and eti-
quette. The teacher, Mrs. John
Stevens, can not see that there is
any difference :between town girls
and farm girls in the home econ-
omics classes. As groups they seem
to take to the work with equal
eptitdde, and to show, on the av-
erage, equal degrees of 'home-mak-
ifig abilit$ gained 'by ,home train-
ing 'before they cense to high
soloed.
"If there is a.. difference," said
Mrs. ,Stevens, "It is that the girls
froth the fattns•, eho'w more inter -
eat, Mid are *litho ratite deter n.
ed to learn."

Mrs. Hayes also suggeete'dt 'a
hdbby show. This'' brings every
type of work on display and is a
collector's dream. Recreation is
becoming more and more a plan-
ned project. Recreational directors
are being especially trained so
they can plan, a program of hob-
bles, craft's and social times for
any age group. Many communities
or a :number of smaller communi-
ties -are joining together and hir-
ing these trained directors. Than
eliminates the burden from indi-
viduals or groups, Information re-
garding these is available from the
Department of Education, Parlia-
ment, Buildings, Toronto.
When ,a new project is, contem-
plated, do not put it up to the
people suddenly, the speaker ad-
vised. Have a series of dis-
cussions; run items in the local
papers showing the good points of
it. Let the people have time to
discuss it at home and with their
neighbors. But keep the need of
it before them. Don't get discour-
aged and drop it. The launching
and carrying out of any such un-
dertaking
ndertaking should not be left to a
few leaders who -always carry the
burden in every organization. Ev-
ery, person has some potentiality
and qualification far leadership„ so
use them and do what you are ask-
ed to do.
Mrs. Hayes said in conclusion
that the Women's Institutes have
a great opportunity open to them
now to make history by leading in
the field of community enterpris-
es. They have the strength to func-
tion here, because they are the
mothers of the community embrac-
ing every color, race and religion
in the world. The Institute's mot-
to embodies good sitizenship, For
Home and Country."
Mrs. John Hillebrecht thanked
the speaker on behalf of those pre-
sent. The National Anthem was
sung and the Seaforth Branch serv-
ed • a delicious lunch.
