On the night of June 23rd our
Graduation dance will be held in
the auditorium. This dance - is
open to the public, and any stu-
dent who wishes to invite someone,
may leave his or her name(s) on

On Friday, May 27th, the elect-
ions for the 1955.:56 Students' Coun-
cil was held in Mr. Dobson's room.
'The executive of the Students'
Council turned out to be: presi-
dent, Bill Flannigan; vice press'=
dent, Joanne Beuermann, secret-
ary, Doran Stinson; treasurer,;
Sally Nott.-
The
ott:The reason that the election
was held at the end of this year,
rather than at the beginning of
next year, was that these officials
would have the opportunity to at-
tend some of this year's meetings.
It also will enable school activities
to—lie started immediately under
a Student's Council.

Oh! But it was a cold, wet day.
That was the day we had our Cadet
inspection. While the girls froze,
the boys were just right, so they
Isay.
Nearly everyone agreed that the
inspection looked. much better at
the Lions Park, rather than at the
Community Centre. Even the band
declared that they played much
better at the park.
The cadet dance showed a good
attendance of cadet uniforms. Mr.
and Mrs. Dobson and Mr. and Mrs.
Whitely chaperoned the dance and
Ken Wilbee's orchestra supplied
the music.
Here we go picking stone's to-
day, stones today, stones today.
That, people, is the theme song of
the boys from first form to fourth
form.
The large field to the right of the
school is to be used as a rugby
field in the fall and no one wants
to break his nose on a stone. So,
when thetenth period bell rings,
and Mr. Plumsteel says. all boys
from nine to twelve outside — is
there a rush to a door?—oh no!
But, nevertheless, the stones
must go and perhaps we . might
have some basketball players next
year, even though bushel baskets
are bigger than basketball nets.
Thursday, May 26th, the Home
Economics girls of grade 12 enter-
tained
ute -tained the teachers, their wives and
children at a buffet dinner. The
dinner, which was to be held at
6.00, was held up by some unknown
means and didn't start until 7.00.
Everyone claimed that they were
not trying to starve anyone.
At the beginning of next week,
pictures will be sold, which can be
used as bribery, to show that men
can do dishes.

"The 'Children's Aid Society is
dependentt on every citizen.'." John

er, said that for the 12 years of his
political life he had been interested
in the welfare of children.
Thomas Pryde, Exeter, also ex-
pressed his interest in child welfare
and said that by being a member of
the, welfare board he had received
a great insight into social problems
in -institutions and he found that

Society a great humanitarian work
and assured the audience that a
full-time probation officer is to be
appointed in, the county of Huron.

visor of Welfare for the counties
of Huron, Perth, and Bruce, spoke
briefly.
Reeve N. Scoins, Seaforth, who
was introduced by Mr. McMillan,
said: "Money used in Huron County
C.A.S. was well handled, and if you
crab about your county taxes, as
everyone does, remember that only
half a mill is used for the work of
the Children's Aid Society."
J. Doig, reeve of Tuckersmith,
said he appreciated the honor of
being appointed by -County Council
as chairman of the finance com-
mittee, and stated, "The grants to
C.A.S. are never questioned by
council."
"Approximately four thousand
visits are made each year by the
staff of the C.A.S." He further
stated that a detention room is to
be indorporated in the new county
building, where a child will not be
considered a criminal, but rather
a wrongdoer.
Warden Earl Campbell, who is
also a member of the C.A.S. com-
mittee, brought greetings trona the
County Council.
Harvey Erskine, Huron County
treasurer, and secretary of the C.

eral years, told the history of Hur-

her staff and two foster mothers,
and also commended Wingham hos-
pital board on their fine coopera-
tion.
Miss Clare McGowan, assistant
director, dealt with her responsi-
bilities towards the Official Guard-
ians office which requires a comp-
rehensive report whenever parents

ents, she stated that both parents

foster homes, she said that every
child needs a good home where he
is loved and wanted.

er if this were deemed advisable,

juvenile and family court, and in
probation which is voluntarily done
by the society pending appoint-
ment of a probation officer in
Huron.
Miss Gertrude Wilkes, foster
home investigator, outlined the re-
quirements the society looked for
in prospective adoptive homes,
stressing particulary• the need of
boarding homes --where foster par-
ents were uncritical of a child's
background and mita, were pre-
pared to give warm, understand-
ing care to a child who was emo-
tionally disturbed and therefore
deeply unhappy.

Simpson and Miss Marie Lyddiatt,

and- Mrs. Ninean Heard,' Holmes-
ville, represented the foster homes
