I understand that the Students' Council has de- cided to go on a shopping spree and purchase some of our owe, which I am sure will be welcomed by all. A' variety of dances were urs the program, such as Paul Jones' elim- ination, spot dance, Sadie Hawkins. The time flew so quickly that when square dances were suggested, lunch was ready to be served and soon everything else was forgotten. Marion Laudenbach and Lesliq Habkirk were the last to be elim- inated. Patsy Lane and Lloyd Eis- ler and Bob Scott and myself won the spot dances. The prizes, I thought, were very appropriate, considering that Easter is just around the corner—they were col- orful baskets filled with candy eggs. In a basketball game against the seniors last week, Fourth Form boys certainly showed up Fifth. It was just a school game which took place in the tenth period, the in- termediates against the seniors. Eric, as usual, was the star of .the game, with 13 points to his credit; George followed with 7; John, Ron and Toby, 2. Con made 6 points for the seniors; Gord 4 and Mike 3, with the final score being 26-13. Tuesday, instead of assembly, Mr. Webber from the Hydro, in- formed us of the necessity of the change from 25 •to 60 cycles. At the conclusion of his interesting talk, films were shown to the•stu- dents to emphasize the benefits of frequency standardization. Exams take place about a week and a half after the holidays. With this in mind, I wish you all a very Happy Easter and pleasant holi- days (now don't spend all your time studying!). CROMARTY Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Keinfeldt with Mr. and Mrs. Frank Bruce.

SEAFORTH Public Utility Commission Citizens of Seaforth The Streets Committee 071 your Town Council is preparing an outline of work to be done this year. To draw up a comprehensive program which will give the maximum benefit to everyone, we require a complete picture of conditions in all parts of the town. You know conditions in your particular district. We are asking your assistance in making this survey. We have_three limiting factors hi the matter of town improvement: the three M's—Manpower. Material and Money. If these factors are treated intelligently with a full knowledge of conditions all over town, we should hope for a marked improve- ment by the end of the year. You will realize that it is not prac- tical to do everything in one year, but you will know definitely what will be done this year. ° Here is the procedure on reporting any faults in drainage, sidewalks, streets, etc. Put it in WRITING; send to the TOWN CLERK, SEAFORTH; keep it brief—just tell us the fault, the location of the fault, and your name and address. We would like to complete this .survey as soon as possible as we expect to have a Government expert on municipal drainage analyze the survey for us. We have a request or two to make at ibis time. Firstly, don't expect YOUR problem to be attended to immediately, although we will investigate every report as soon as possible. Secondly, the members of the Counril are businessmen volunteering their SPARE time in your interests. Please make the reports iN WRIT- ING to the TOWN CLERK—not verbally to members of the committee. We feel this program should show results. we ask your co-operation.

The impression Left behind you. al- though our acquaintance and as- sociations were all too short, were certainly very favorable, and we are sure would have been more so had fate been kind enough to have left yon longer in our community. "However, knowing your affable nature as we do, we know you will not be long making new friends, but also trust that you will not for- get your old ones. We would ask you to accept this small remem- brance of your stay in our ioca.lity,, as a token of our friendship, with the hope thatany time yon should wander up this way in the future you will stop in and visit. — Your Friend's: Mr. and Mrs. Peter Hick- nell, Mr. and Mrs. J.
