This Week At the Seaforth High School
(By SHIRLEY FRIEDAY)
Mother Nature smiled gently tioned for their 'passing, tackling,
etc.' Not being too well acquaint-
ed with rugby, I suggest that one
of the sports periods be set aside
to teach the girls the techniques of
rugby, as I ,heard from many that
I am not &one in my ignorance.
The cheer leaders must be ad-
mired for their school spirit, to say
the least. There seemed tobe near-
ly as much controversy and excite-
ment among Goderich and Seaforth
girls, as out on the rugby field. A
Battle Royal ensued and the girls
almost resorted to blows! Don't
worry, kids; a team that can't ev-
en take success good-naturedly
isn't worth bothering about.
• Having a Scotty dog as a mascot
is a very novel idea. We hope you
all noticed '"Mac" decked out in his
ribbons of red, black and yellow.
He sat and surveyed the crowd
with a look of mild interest, and
not •a bark out of him throughout
the whole performance. The main
;-roblem seems to be what to do
with him when the girls are occu-
pied.
Cars decorated with streamers
and signs, drove quietly about town
—there was no singing or blaring
o1 horns to announce this victory,
-down upon the world and gave us
a sunny day for the big game of
the season. But Fate stepped in
and played a wicked' trick on us—i
we lost. Seaforth was' off to a fly-
ing start, obtaining the first touch-
down in the first quarter, and gain-
ing another point soon after. And
so it went, but suddenly Goderich
seemed to receive renewed energy,
for near the end of the game they
made two touchdowns, winning
with a score of 10-6. Art Bolton
was our hero, gaining for us •the
touchdown and "Fog" Johnson con-
tributed his efforts to get the other
point. Many others should be men -

but don't forges 'gang', this is oR,-

we can win too. We caste close to

:The fact that fire prevention is
necessary was -never 'brought home
80 forcefully as it was to the stu-
dent of Fourth Form the other -day
in the lab. One of the alcohol
lamps had been upset, -the flames
started to spread, but were quick;
ly put out with the fire extinguish-
er by, Mr. Morrison. It was only a
minor incident, no—not 'serious you
may say, but the matter of fire,
slight as it may seem, is not to be
scorned or laughed at. Let this be
an example to all of us to obey
the rules, not only during Fire Pre-
vention Week, but at all times.
I know you people are wondering
how long these elections are going
to go on, but these, I hope, will be
the last. Form representatives for
the Athletic Society are: Girls—
Marg. Archilles, IX; Beth Boyd, X;
Pat Lane, XI; Shirley Frieday, XII;
Hannah Pepper, XIH. Boys—Geo.
Love, IX; Bob Allen, X; Geo. Sills,
XI; Geo. Shaw, XII; Gord. Mc-
Kindsey, XIII. The girls held a
meeting in the library in the pre-
sence of Miss Galivan last Friday.
It was decided that there would be
no volley ball team this year, at
least not to compete with the other
schools, the reason being that
there is only one gym and that is
needed for basketball practice. We
hope this meets with your approv-
al; we'd rather have a good team
as two poor ones.
In Assembly Tuesday, Mr. Plum -
steel congratulated the students
who had entered the ploughing
match, It appears that we bad a
fine bunch of entries from Seaforth
High School, since one, at least,
took a prize in each event. These
students carried off most of the
prize money and had the highest
standing.
Will wonders never cease! We
had another boy as talent this
week. Jim Perry played, "Let Me
Call You Sweetheart" and "The
Happy Farmer." Girls, you can't
let us down like this! Isn't there
someone who can sing, act, dance,
or play something?
Question of the Week?
What Third Former decided that
it would be much swifl.er to fly
down the steps than to take them
one at a time as the normal per-
son does? -

Notes on Fire Drill
It is the policy of this school, in
case of fire, to move the children,
not only quickly and quietly, but
carefully, from the school building.
Under sudden impulse' caused by
the fire gong, the children are in a
hurry to reach safety and are in-
clined to run. This we avoid by
having the youngsters walk quick-
ly, but not run, to the nearest
exit. To prove that the youngsters
are under the control of their
teacher, one bell signifies that the
youngsters are to stop where they
are immediately. If they fail to do
this. they are out of control.
When the children reach the
playground, they line up in their
own grades under their room teach-
er, then counted to see that all are
out of the building, and remain
out until they are told to return.
When wooden stairs are still in
use, fire can easily cut off an es-
cape exit. To prevent the children
from forming a regular routine, a
red light is hung at different exits
(signifying that area blocked).
They must then turn toward an-
other exit. Thus the children are
trained to be observant and care-
ful.
While dismissing the youngsters
as quickly as possible from the
school is our objective, we wish to
do it safely.
To the Editor
October 19, 1950.
Editor. The Huron Expositor:
Rumours have been started in
Seaforth that the Seaforth Cham-
ber of Commerce has been oppos-
ing the presence of the Canadian
Comstock officials in town. The
Comstock Co. has the contract for
the mechanical changeover from
25 to 60 cycles, These rumours
are not true and without any foun-
dation.
The Chamber of Commerce will
co-operate with this company in
any proposition it may make, and
will work with it wholeheartedly
for the betterment of the commun-
ity.

Mentally III
There is nothing more shameful
in mental illness than there is in
any bodily sickness. Many cases
of mental disturbance can be cured.
i1 taken in time and correct treat-
ment given at the onset. When any
child or adult shows signs of such
mental sickness, diagnosis by a
physician should be obtained—ex-
pert cape may cure the condition.
Don't Quarrel Before Children
A child who grows up in a
family where there is constant
bickering and argument is likely to
develop a feeling of being unloved
and unwanted that may affect his
adult character. Very few families
can escape occasional squabbles
among the grownups, but such
family arguments should be saved
until the child Is hitt present.
