At present 310 pupils attend from distances as far aways as Molesworth and Moncrieff. Principal James Axt- nnann, of McKillop Township, heads a staff of eight teachers, two less than was needed with the section school system. Designed by architects Dun- lop, Wardell, Matsui and Aitn ken and built by .Monteith -Mc- Grath Ltd., Waterlog, the school is situated about a .mile south of the village of Ethel on 30 acres of land purchased from Sterling, Hoot ,,,(23 acres) and Glen Eckmier (seven acres).

TrusteeWilfred Shortreed, of Walton, introduced the guest speaker, who was thanked by Donald McDonald, RR 2, $rus- sels, vice-chairman of the school board. • Dr. Stewart discussed the new freedoms of today which he outlined as being the free- dom to excel; the freedom to believe; the freedom to choose and the freedom to live a full life. The old freedoms of ex- pression, worship and freedom from fear and want, he said, were now out -dated. Inspector Kinkead, on behalf of the Trustees and Ratepay- ers Association of Ontario, pre- sented a Bible to Principal James Axtmann. He said the school had been built to facili- tate the teaching of a -new kind of education. , l&s. Stewart Steiss, of Rl3 A; renovated int; their residett00- "We have no intention of car- rying on the same kind of edu- cation here as we did before," said Mr. Kinkead. , He encouraged parents to be- come aware of the 'kinds ,of ed- ucation now available for stn., dents not wishing to go on to university. "In our high schools' today," said Mr. Kinkead, "5¢ ger cent of all pupils are enrolled in courses other than the five-year course - these are the students we used to call drop -outs. No child wants to be called a drop- out and it is up to, ua to: pro- vide something for them." He suggested that in the fu- ture a college of applied arts would be built within 20 miles of the Grey Central School, giv- ing students • a further oppor- tunity for education beyond the gecondary school level. As part of the program the Grey Central School choir sang a number of selections under the direction of music teacher Brussele, the former Madeline Quipp, of Rlt 1, Monkton. Reeve Cliff Dunbar, of Ethel, speaking on behalf of Grey Township Council, cbngratlllat- ed• the school board. Members of the board include Mr. Pearson, Mr. McDonald, Mr. Shortreed; Norman Hoover, of RR 3, Brussels, secretary -treas- urer, and traatte Allan McTag- gart,, RR 2, Brussels, and Sam Sweeney, of RR 1, Ethel. Members of the teaching staff are: Mrs: Stuart McNair, Mrs. Joe Martin, Mrs. William Camp- bell, Miss Margaret MacGre- gor, rs. Sam Sweeney, Miss Anne Cardiff, Dale Coghlin and Mrs. Tim Dilworth. Mrs, Campbell, now residing in Ethel, has taught for 30 years, all but 11 of them in Grey. Her other years were spent at a school southwest of Listowel known as the College School. Mr. and Mrs. Campbell reeently purchased Ethel Pith, lic School, SS 11, which they Courses Provide Added Education The Federal Government has recognized the fact that in this age of speed it is' necessary that a Canadian not only must have a higher level of educa- tion but he must keep improv- ing that knowledge. It has therefore entered into an agree- ment .with each Porvince to •rnake existing educational fa- cilities available to adults in different categories. Canadian Vocational Training Programme 5 has been devised to train adults who qualify, in a skill and at the same time raise their academic level. The programme in Stratford is un- der the direction of the Board of Education and Mr. C. L. Searcy is the co-ordinator. The school is held : in the new $3,- 000,000 Northwestern Secon- dary School on Forman Ave. Any one is qualfied to attend school on the programme who is unemployed, over the, age of 16, has been out of day school for one year, and who is con- sidered to. be- capable of im- proving their knowledge,' Unemployed means anyone who is not working a total of 24 hours per•week. This could be ,a • housewife who has never been employed or a person who lost employment the day be- fore application for Pragramme 5 is made. Various skills are being taught for both "men and wo- men. Some people think it would be too hard to make the transition from normal life to one of study; however, there have been 590 trainees who have entered this course in Stratford to date and 180 have graduated, while another 79 have upgraded themselves by at 'least on grade academically. There are. 79 still in school who will probably -graduate but have at least progressed on grade. Therefore, 57% 'of the intake have learned to study all over again. The ages of trainees going through this school range from 16 years to 63 years. The governments have also realized ;that a person could not go from 10 to 20 months with- out any money, so, they have made it possible to award sub- sistence allowances to trainees, who qualify, for the time spent attending school. The amounts vary to family conditions and' places of residence. A Six buses owned' by the school board transport the pupils to Grey Central. Bus drivers are James Armstrong, Ken Mepon aid, Murray Hoover, Bob pull- ningham, Doug Evans and 'Don Armstrong, all of Grey.
