CONTINUINGAkERT,,, Now that the youngsters are back 'in school, I hope that Seaforth drivers will not relax the caution they've been exercising during the summer montbs. Tru.e enough, the chi:dren aren't out during most of the day, but they ARE out on the way to and from school, and during the "lunch. hour". (And in total quantities, such as they never were during the holidays.) And then again, there's a new crop of little ones who are just starting school and haven't had, too much experience in protecting themselves from sense- less or careless drivers. ON STAYING IN SCHOOL Some young peoplemay shudder at the thoughtof it, but the new school term is with .us. I certainly hope that as many Seaforth students as possible :are returning to com- plete High School or technical school, because this is cer- tainly the minimum requirement today in order to have any satisfactory,, control over what kind of jobs will be held over the next forty -plus years. And that can be a .mighty long time to regret. not staying in school a few more years! I hope that parents who grew up when times were different are aware' -of how much our society has changed and are properly determined that their children be as fully equipped as possible before tackling the working world.
