Yes, it has been a successful year as far as activities are concerned, so for .SEAFORTH LUMBER Ltd. D.&H.

Basket- ball results needn't be scoffed at either -the Juniors came close, which was some comfort, and the Senior, both boys and girls, al- though not anywhere near the top, displayed real sportsmanship in their playing, as *ell as their los- ing. The dances, although some complained, were all too infre- quent, were very well attended. Of course the biggest success was the At -Home itself -everyone was sat- Isfied with results, those concerned received a special glow of content- ment.

(By Japes Scott) INQUISITIVE . NEIWHBOR I imagine that there are quite a few people in these parts who know, have met or know of Dr. W. Sherwood Fox. In the first place, he is a summer neighbor and spends a good part of each year in his rambling cottage overlooking Lake Huron, up in Goderich. Sec- ondly, he used' to be the President of the 'University of Western On- tario, and was in great measure re- sponaible for making Western the power it is in Western Ontario ed- ucation today. In that capacity he got around what might be called his large constituency and got to know a lot about us, our children and our needs. Not a native of these parts, he has got very interested' in every- thing which goes on here and about, and, what's more, although you might not expect it from so learned and intellectual a man, he has got one of the 'biggest bumps of curiosity you're likely to find any - Now there are two ways of being nosey. There is the inquisitive neighbor who is always prying into the other fellow's busineas, all too often hoping or she will unearth some dreadful scandal which will set the local tongues. a -Wagging for weeks'. In fiction that is the way the curious small -towner is too of- ten portrayed. Of tourse, I am not denying that there are some such among us, but they are not so com- mon as a city -bred writer seems to Then there is the other kind -the sort who is just plain curious be- cause he is truly interested in our doings, in our past, in the kind of life we lead and why. He makes a pretty good neighbor, and that is the kind of fellow Dr. Fox is. Lately he has been turning his attention to our neighboring county -Brude---antl the results will be a book which will be published this fall, called "The Bruce Beckons." Naturally, I haven't had a chance to read this yet, but Dr, Fox sent me a summary of what be has put into it, and. he has got plenty. He has to be a very inquisitive man to cover such things as the flowers which grow on the peninsUla, the "sky -pilots" who have served there, the tales and legends of the old- timers, the settlers, and the woods- men who first came, the shipwrecks along her coastline, etc., etc. But one of the best things -and best tributes to Dr. Fox too -is the fact that the people of the Bruce were the ones who wanted him to look into their affairs, who helped kith with full co-operation for his book, and who are, supporting the financing of it. By the way, the book is almost a 'hundred per cent Western product with the writer, the illustrator - Clare Byce, of London -and the mapinakers, all people who live near Mt. And as I thought about all this, and admired the example of the people of the Bruce Peninsula who are interested enough to make sure that a proper book by a friendly neighbor is written about them and their ancestors, I couldn't help but grow a little wistful for some simi- lar venture for us , right here in Mr. Ervin "Dick" Jacob, farm manager for the Huron county Home at Clinton, is seen taking delivery of a new Bell "Imperial" ,-threshing machine.

Some students might, however,, find this quotation by Tennyson more to their way of thinking: "0 God, that I were dead!"

I might also add. here ray apologies if by chance I have annoyed or pro- voked anyone, especially in my 'question of the week'. I hope you have all taken these good-natured- ly in the way they were -meant. This is the fervent wish of the "To the Old Seniors, Success, In all that they try; To the New Seniors, Luck, And to all, Good-bye!" So long, folks, and the very best of luck!
