Alembers of the Seaforth Lions OltaTb gathered at their Park on Wednesday afternoon to transform every available square inch of land into a carnival ground. The four- teenth annual Lions Carnival will begin on Wednesciv, July 13, and continue for three nights. Previous- ly the carnival was held only two night, Wednesday- and Friday. The Lions, during their bee, erected hundreds of feet of snow fence, built stages and booths, and began the installation of special wiring. The work will continue until carn- ival time. Determined, that this year will see the best carnival yet, the com- mittee in charge has spared no ef- fort or expense to ensure that the program and arrangements for the three nights are the best that can be made. The members of the club will be called upon to expend extra time and energy in order to make this new three -night carnival a success. A big change this year will be the holding of the dance on the tennis courts across 'the highway from the park proper. A refresh- ment booth has been built beside the courts and additional help pro- vided to render quicker and better service to the dancers. Different programs have been planned for each evening, with prize drawing at the conclusion of the entertainment. Friday evening will be climaxed with a grand dis- play of fireworks. The committees in charge of the carnival are: General committee, F, Kling, chairfnan, J. Turnbull, G. R. John- ston; program committee, G. Mc - Gavin, chairman, A. Y.

No eooner do the dioors close for the summer holidays than gangs of workmen descend upon the-b)xildings to make necessary repairs and any remodelling that the authorities have decided to do. The boards meet regularly during the summer months to plan for pupil accommodation, teaching staff and to survey curriculum needs and building requirements. At the Seatorth Public School there will be few changes of any kind. Then teaching staff will re- main the same, with the exception of D. N. Eastman, who has been appointed principal, replacing P. B. Moffat, who resigned because of ill health. There will be no major changes in the building, according to M. McKellar, secretary -treasur- er of the public school board. The only work to be done will be that of making necessary and urgent repairs. The District High School Board met on Tuesday night to survey the bus routes. Because of the ad- dition of parts of Grey and Morris to this area, it will be necessary to place another bus in service, according to M. A. Reid, secretary - treasurer of the board. This will make a total of live buses bring-, ing pupils to Seaforth High School. It is not yet knovvii how many more pupils this extra territory will mean, but the survey will de- termine this in time for the board to plan pupil accommodation for next year. The 'teaching staff will remain the 'same, with the excep- tion of Mise Doris M. Smith, of New Hamburg, who has been ap- pointed an additional teacher. Changes to the building will in- clude the remodelling and redecor- ation of the principal's office and painting of the halls. Heretofore, there was always an ice hazard in the wintertime above the front en- trance. An attempt will be made to remedy this by insulating the roof in the area surrounding the door and the- erectiou of a canopy above the entrance. Following a delicious lunch and after the games and races had been run off, Mrs. Harold Nicholson was made the recipient' of a lovely sil- ver set prior to hear leaving the school after five years, service.
