This Week At the Seaforth Dined nigh School
(By GISELA HELBIG)
Exams
School activities have come
to a standstill. Yesterday be-
gan the bane of all students—
the examinations. Let's not pur-
sue the point any further!
Staff -Team Volleyball Game
It seems that the staff are
the volleyball champs of SDHS.
Last Thursday the staff team,
composed of Miss Cocks, Miss
Slavin, Mr. Cosford, Mr. Dob-
son, Mr. Godin, Mr. Murcjie and
Mr. McConney, beat down the
Senior girls' team, 15-11. The
score indicates that the two
are quite evenly matched, so
the girls are dreaming of re-
venge in the future—perhaps
next year. How about it?
Trip To Toronto
On Wednesday, Nov. 22, Bar-
bara Holland, Darrell Schnei-
der, Allan Patterson and my-
self had a wonderful trip down
to Toronto to see the opening
of Parliament, as the guests of
the Hon. C. S. MacNaughton.
Mr. Silas and Mr. Plumsteel ac-
companied us — Mr. Sills to
drive, and Mr. PIumsteel to
keep us out of mischief.
Before we had dinner at the
Royal York, we were shown the
second floor of the hotel, where
many clubs hold their big con-
ferences. Every province also
has a room on this floor, with
the coat of arms on each
door. Along the hall is a beau•
tiful wall-to-wall carpet with an
all-over design of the coats of
arms and the official flowers of
each province. No wonder these
clubs are always holding con-
ferences! Who wouldn't want
to go to a beautiful place like
that!
At two o'clock a chauffeured -
car whisked us to 'the Parlia-
ment Buildings, which were al -
FUNERALS
DR, LOUIS G. PRENDERGAST
The death occurred in Long
Beach, Cal., on November 22,
1961, of Louis G. Prendergast.
In his 75th year, he was the
descendant of a pioneer Tuck-
ersmith family.
Born in Egmondville Jan. 13,
1886, the son of the late John
Prendergast and Margaret Finn,
he left the area as a youth. Sub-
sequently he graduated in den-
tistry, and for many years prac-
tised in Chicago. Recently he
ready full of people. There we
recorded our names "for pos-
terity", in the huge visitors'
book, which contained t h e
names of people from all over
the world. Soon we went to
find our seats in the gallery.
There were about 500 people in
the assembly room, and some
of the relatives of the Members
had chairs on the floor of the
Chamber, to have more space,
The situation was so crowded
that the Sergeant -at -Arms' desk
was not brougl4 in until the
Lieutenant -Governor had left,
since there was room only in
the aisle.
Everyone rose and the Lieu-
tenant -Governor entered in a
magnificient uniform, leading
his lady, clad in a lovely white,
sequin -embroidered gown, and
preceded by about 25 colorful-
ly -uniformed officers. After ev-
eryone had sat down again, the
Speech from the Throne was
read, outlining all the things
that the Legislature planned to
do before March (they must
work very hard to get every-
thing done!). The speech was
presented to Premier John
Robarts, and then given to the
clerk. The Lieutenant -Governor
tipped his hat to the Premier,
then left, followed by the offi-
cers.
The mace was put on the
table; Parliament was in ses-
sion. The Speaker read the
prayers that are traditionally
read before every meeting of
Parliament. The Premier
introduced a bill for the first
reading to officially begin the
business of the year; then the
Leader of each party spoke
briefly. Mr. Robarts then mov-
ed that the Throne Speech be
considered the next day, and
that the session be adjourned,
When we came from the gal
lery, Mr. MacNaughton had a
photographer ready for us, so
that we would have a souvenir
from our trip. After we had our
picture taken, we moved to
wards the reception room. This
involved some standing, since
there were 700 or 800 people
with the same purpose in mind.
Finally, we reached the room,
lit by a huge chandelier blaz-
ing with countless candles, and
shook hands with the Premier,
the Lieutenant•Governor, and
their wives, who were all just
as gracious as if ours were the
first hands they had shaken.
fler tea (or coffee) and sand-
iches downstairs, we went
ack to the Royal York and set
it from there about 6:30. We
opped for supper on the way
ome, but managed to get home
nd more or less in bed by 11
clock.
That day was certainly mem-
orable for all of us, and I know
that the others will join me
in heartfelt thanks to Mr. and
Mrs. MacNaughton for their
warm hospitality, and to Mr.
Sills and Mr. Plumsteel for get-
ting us safely there and back.

Irvin Sillery, who had been
nominated for council, said he
had not intended running, but
now hadn't decided.
The chairman reviewed the
work of the area board. He
was disturbed about trends to
central schools and wondered
whether, as a result of pita -
sures in this direction, work
done in maintaining the school
plant might be wasted.
Cleave Coombs, vice-chair-
man of the board, told of re-
pairs that had been carried out
and which included new heat-
ing plants in Schools No. 1 and
No. 4.
Verne Alderdice, who had
been nominated as trustee,
said he would consider.
George Falconer, township
representative on the Clinton
Collegiate, and James McIn-
tosh, who represents Tucker -
smith on the SDHS Board, re-
viewed work of their boards.
Mr. Falconer felt the renumera-
tion of trustees should be In-

THE TOP TWO STUDENTS among boys and girls at

bank loans.
Difficulties in collecting ar-
rears were explained in answer
to a question by James M.
Robertson.
Sewer Plans Ready
Plans for an extension to
Seaforth sewers are awaiting
Municipal Board approval, Dr.
J. 0. Turnbull said. The pro-
gram involves $180,000, and is
the first step in a program
which ultimately will provide
town -wide service. Dr. Turn-
bull said he was retiring from
municipal life—not from lack
of interest, but through lack of
time.
Councillor John Flannery,
chairman of the fire and water
committee, said there had been
few fires this year. He had
been reminded by Chief Scott,
he said, that this situation could
change quickly.
Councillor Thorpe Rivers,
who had chaired the street com-
mittee, said there had been
some problems, but all had
been met. He suggested a
change in accounting procedure
whereby money recovered as a
result of custom work be cred-
ited to the street account,
rather than to general account.
The chairman of the property
committee, Neil Bell, recalled
difficulties that had arisen in
the granting of building per-
mits and felt a change in pro-
cedure should be made.
Councillor Carl Dalton, nom-
inated for reeve, said he would
like a little more experience be-
fore thinking of that. He was
concerned about tax arrears
and the wisdom of considering
sewers. He reviewed police ac-
tivities and suggested unneces-
sary mileage was being cover-
ed, As far as building permits
were concerned, he favored any
permit that would produce more
taxes.
PUC Chairman Reports
Frank Kling, PUC chairman, re-
viewed progress that had beeri
made during the year in carry-
isrOut a long-term plant im-
prov�ement program. The prim-
ary loop about the town had
b e en completed, additional
street lighting provided, and a
number of water mains replac-
ed. He told the meeting he
planned to retire this year.
Representatives of other
boards who spoke, included J.
A. Cardno, of SDHS Board; Mrs.
A. W. Sillery, chairman of the
Public School Board; M. Etue,
of the Separate School Board;
Mrs. J. M. McConnell, of the
Public Library, who said mem-
bership at the library increased
during the past year from 800
to 1,088.
Answed Questions
Following reports, the meet-
ing was thrown open to ques-
tions from the ratepayers. Ques-
tions ranged from the police
department to garbage collec-
tion, and included sewer prob-
Iems, parking meters, baseball
diamonds and unattended fires
in lanes parallel to Main Street.
for 12 meetings didn't reflect
the demands being made on
trustees today.
Mr. McIntosh explained the.
arrangement between SDHS
and the proposed composite
school at Clinton. He said
while town pupils were not car-
ried by buses, the cost of bus-
es was borne by all municipali-
ties, including the towns.

ENGEL—CASLER
Dorothy Casler and Robert

ficiated. The couple will reside

A SMILE OR TWO
"Do you know the difference
between the English, Scottish
and Irish?"
"No, what is it?"
"We11, in leaving a train, an
Irishman walks off without
looking to see whether he has
left anything behind; an Eng-
lishman looks back to see whe-
ther he has left anything; and
a Scotsman looks back to see
whether anybody else has left
anything."
Hunter: "I met a big bear
in the woods."
Excited Friends: "Did you
give him both barrels?"
Hunter: "The heck with both
barrels; I gave him the whole
gun!"
Old Jim lived in a shanty by
the river. When cold weather
came he put on a mangy coon-
skin coat whenever he went
wandering. One evening some
duck hunters spied what they
took to be a bear advancing on
them through the riverside
brush. Before Jim could shout,
one pulled up and fired. The
hunters rushed him to a hospi-
tal where a nurse immediately
undressed him and bathed him.
"You don't take a bath very
often, do you?" she sniffed,
scrubbing vigorously.
"Nope," Jim countered. "Ya'
