The jeans dance. which was held last Friday night, with hopes that en- ough money would be made to rescue the two societies from the cellar department of the treasur- er, had no such luck. The even- ing ended with the organizations five "dollars deeper in the cellar, when they should have been fifty dollars ahead. The orchestra was good; there was lots of room on the floor to navigate, and there was an as- sortment of dances. So what hap- pened? Has everyone Iost what little school spirit they already have? Oh, well, the less people, the more chances of winning prizes: The spot dances went to Greta Pfaff with Paul Stapleton, and Alice Ann Nixon with Doug Scott. The elimination dance was won by Joe Williams, along with Mar- ilyn Meda, a student from Clin- ton. "Let's make it thiundaP' ACASUAL phone call, and "this Sunday" suddenly becomes an extra special Sunday! Whether the call comes from miles away or just around the corner, the invitation seems so much more personal, more inviting, when you hear it over the telephone. Old and young alike turn to the phone when they're in a hurry. A round -up of the gang, a family reunion, a holiday dinner, a big date — it's faster, more exciting to telephone! And even the blow of bad news can usually besoftened by a sympathetic voice. Next to seeing the people you care about is hearing their warm, familiar voices.

This day, weather permitting, will be the school's annual field day, where both girls and boys will be trying for the honors of junior, intermedi- ate and senior champions. Every champion will try to sweep his field in points in order to obtain the Cup presented to the athlete with the most points. A suggestion to divide the school into two teams, with the loser to provide the food for, say, a wiener roast, was advanced, but, remember, only suggested. Actually Cadet inspection al- ways seems far away until you finally have to get out and really march. On Tuesday, everyone in the school, plus a few stragglers picked upon the way, began the long session of left -right -left, un- til the late afternoon of May 25, when it will be gone and passed. The Band was out in full swing with new tunes, including "Jingle Bells." Here's hoping the weath- eeF isn't either too hot or too cold for that piece! Question of the week: Bob, was that a different girl than usual Friday night? Brussels Death Said To Be Natural Mrs. Garnet Wildfong, 55, well- known former school teacher at Dashwood, died in Victoria Hospi- tal, London, on Wednesday from head injuries received in an auto crash at Dashwood Monday night. She, was turning into the Hoff- man Funeral Home when her car was in collision with one driven by Elmer Keller, of Dashwood, and she was hurled into the roadway. She was attended by Dr. Gulens and taken to South Huron Hospi- tal at Exeter, and later to Victoria Hospital, London. Constable C. Gibbons, of the Ex- eter detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police, said no charges will be laid.

Suitable Tools For getting in close to tiny flowers or vegetables, for weed- ing and a few other delicate jobs, it may be necessary to get down on knees or knee pat's but with a little care a great deal of the ord- inary garden cultivating and plant- ing jobs can be handled with a minimum of stooping. Spades, forks, Dutch hoes, spudders and many of the hand cultivators can be purchased with good long han- dles which permit operation with- out any back -bending at all. All of these, and other tools too, in- cluding the lawn mower, it should be remembered, will work easier and faster if their cutting edges are kept sharp. For this purpose an old file will be handy and a little oil will, also help. Huron Farm News Fine weather the last half of the week enabled •many farmers to finish seeding spring grains. `Grain fields seeded during Easter week have came up quite evenly and suffered very little from the heavy rains later in the month. Considerable acreage of Garry and Roxton oats and Montcalm barley have been planted under contract. Officials report farmers slow in signing sugar beet contracts, with only 1,000 acres being contracted to date. Indications are that the white bean acreage will be down considerably from last year. Al- ready a number of livestock have been turned out to grass. (Continued from Page 2) purposes must be found, reports J. F. Bowen, Science Service, Ex- perimental Station, Summerland, B.C. Unfortunately many of our rivers have become contaminated by wastes from household and in- dustrial waste water. As it is of- ten necessary to use water from such sources, it must first be made safe, otherwise disease such as typhoid may be spread in the water supply. Suspended material may be re- moved by settling and filtration. Settling is carried out in large tanks or • reservoirs, the coarser material, mud, sand, etc., being allowed to settle out. Fine sus- pended or colloidal material may be precipitated by the addition of aluminum salts, after which the water may be passed through beds of sand which act as filters in re- moving the finer material. These treatments are necessary in areas where the available water con- tains suspended material. In reg- ions fortunate enough to have a source of clear water, free from suspended material, such treat- ment is not needed. The final treatment whether the water is naturally clear, or clari- fied by artificial means, is chlor- ination. Chlorine is a heavy greenish yellow gas having the property of forming hypochlorous acid when dissolved in water. This sub- stance is very active chemically, reacting with 'organic material in water and having a germicidal ef- fect on any bacteria present. In practice, liquid chlorine is metered into the water supply af- ter chemical tests have determin- ed the amount necessary. The concentration of chlorine is esti- mated in parts of chlorine per million parts of water. A slight excess of chlorine or "residual" is allowed, usually about else -half part per million. Attempts on the part of public health authorities to implement chlorination of water supplies us- ually meet with opposition from various segments of the public. Since the arguments • against chlorination are usually based on faulty premises, it may be in- teresting to discuss them. The most common statement "chlorine is poisonous, therefore it should not be used", is apparent- ly based oh the fact that elemen- tal chlorine is an "irritant gas, and will if inhaled, have serious ef- fects on the lungs. However, chlorine does not appear in drink- ing water in the gaseous state. Being a very active element it combines readily with organic and other materials present in water. In this form it is no longer .a gas, nor is it an irritant in the con- centration normally used, meas- ured in parts of chlorine permil- lion of water. In the combined state, chlorine in water is no more toxic than is table salt, another chlorine compound, of which the average individual uses consider- able amounts. The unpleasant flavor said to result from chlorination is oddly enough due to the use of insuf- ficient chlorine in the treatment of water. Since part of the chlor- ine added reacts with organic ma- terial present, a sufficient excess must be added to give a "resi- dual" 'of, chlorine. Otherwise the chlor phenols formed by reaction of . chlorine with organic material will persist, causing unpleasant flavors. In summer camps, farms and homes using well water or water from sources open to contamina- tion, it is a wise precaution to chlorinate the home supply. This may' be accomplished by the addi- tion of a few drops of any com- mercial hypochlorite solution to each gallon of water. No flavor results, but the water is rendered safe.
