The Huron Expositor, 1971-04-15, Page 7ti REVIEW gradual receding of the snow, which' most of us probably. thought would never go away. While gazing out the classroom window, I spied two cheery little rriess_en- gers of spring, a pair of robins. Hopping here and there, they were really a pleasant sight. Another bright and colourful signpf spring were the dainty snowdrops which I saw poking up through the earth at the base of a tree. And then the sunshine, the warm and glor- ious sunshine. I know that I am not the' only one affected, by spring_ fever, but what more can I say? Ohl I know spring is here! - Sylvia Smith 10A guess they must because it seems for the last four years of my schooling 'at Seaforth District High School, I have not realized • the vast importance of our library as I do now.

As always, the people are eagerly watching for the popular signs which announce the arrival of this wonderful season. Perhaps the greatest sign this year is the Comment Finds Library Valuable By Steve Smith only thro I went to the -library Can a person take such an was. if a teacher insisted that we Limportant source of information read a certain novel or collect t•-77.--,a.s -a-library for granted? - - SoTrie —Sp-ecific information on ,some topic. -• Having a spare recently and not 'knowing what exactly to do with it, I decided to visit the library and amuse, myself by browsing around. I was not amused but amazed at the number of new editiens. From time to time there is a list of new books posted on the bulletin board avail- able, but of course there is never time to look at it thoroughly as We would like.

D. H. S. students visited the University of Waterloo on Tuesday. The visitors exper- ienced lectures on computer pro- gramming, vocational guidance" and the actual use of a computer. They were among students from Secondary Schools' across Western Ontario, The Computer Science Days program, now in its seventh year, is offered and coordinated by the university's Faculty of Mathe- matics. It is designed for first class honbers students from grades 12 and 13 who wish .to learn.,morie about Universitylevel mathematics and computer science. Last year some 6100 students from 260 Ontario high sChOols took part in the program. The schedule is heavier 'this year, as more and more, young people-kook- towards-computing as- - a career field. Past experience had shown that about 15 per cent -of the students had already mastered a working knowledge of some computer language and could be considered advanced. These students, were separated into a special group for a short briefing on how to run a Fortran program on the university's System/360 computer and were then free to run programs for most of the day. „4,4,01,•mt:;•.:* ••••:‘,415.•,• Hansen, also an English teacher, will more than go out of her way to help you find what you are looking for and even to' suggest something to arouse your interest in a specific topic.

I would like to have opinions and any information yoU wish to express. • With your co-operation, we can, make this year's paper a bigger• success than 'ever before. ' A glass-enclosed display case situated outside the Industrial Arts room has. been tp more use this year than it has been since it was built into the. wall when the. new school was completed. Finished articles produced by our own boys taking strop are frequently displayed here for the viewing of the student- body., It also has been used this year by the Marketh2g division, 12-D, when they .set up a good-will display for the Christmas Season. Anyone wishing to display sorne article of interest to the students of S.D.H.S. can" easily obtain' inforthation and permission from Mr. Ring, the head of our Industrial Arts course. g. ' By using this case for a display it allows the students not taking the course or students not yet to that" levelrto see what this subject may involve. It would also show points of interest to look forward to and possibly move you to•create ideas of your own which could be brought into reality by using 'this case . . It is a great way of communicating to someone who is unaware of the various projects assigned to students in various courses. Getting the walls. in the halls of the school painted would have been a task that the decorating committees just would not have been able to work into their schedule'but the school custodians came - through as they always do, when needed. While acting as chaperones, for ' us they kept busy cleaning and making everything spotless for the' big event. This Will 'again' show .how to get a job done the best and most efficient Way possible by working together. Students of S, D. H. S. have already started counting the days left in this school year. In fact in 'my hoi0 room, 12-D we keep track of them daily. When you stop to think of it there is an unbelievable number of days left. Do you have an interesting point to express or Aa subject that you would like discussed or some information you would like to obtain?
