Highlights
Arpund School
The last few weeks Grade 13 have
been busy preparing essay and essay
plane for the English teacher, Miss
Davis. Most of the students have
Written on “The Decline of Courtesy
Towards Women” but those who
were less interested in courtesy
trends chpse the topic, “Punctuality
Pays!” These essays have now been
handed in and. students are awaiting
the criticisms that will aid them in
their next attempt.
A short ime ago the students of W.
D.H.S. conduced a MacLean Hunter
Magazine Drive in Wingham and Dis
trict. The profit that was made from
this campaign.was used to purchase a
grand piano from Mrs. Anderton. This
piano has now been installed in the
auditorium. This piano belonged to
the late Mr. Anderton of Goderich,
who, for several years, taught music
at W.D.H.S.
Marguerite Ford, Grade 13, has been
chosen queen of the school to repre-
sent W.D.H.S, at the annual tour and
banquet in London sponsored by the
London Free Press, The students
from Western Ontario High Schools
Will tour buildings such as Western
Ontario University, CFPL T. V. Stat
ion and the London Free Press. After
this tour they will attend a formal
banquet to be held at Western Univer
sity cafeteria. Marguerite will be re
quired to write an essay on “My
Home and My Country” before at
tending the Queen's Day in London,
to be held in early spring. The stud
ents wish Marguerite Ford success in
writing her essay and advise her to let
Miss Davis inspect it before she seals
it. *
A few weeks, ago I told you about
the oak branch that Ivan McKague
procured for the Grade 13 Botany
Class. When the twig was brought
into the school it was a dull brown
colour but now the students have ob
served green buds bursting open. JEven
if there is no sign of spring outside
the sphool, there are signs of new
life in the school.
The students of W.D.H.S. are proud
to think that most of the Wingham
Juveniles are W.D.H.S. students with
the excepion of Gary Storey and Bob
Carter, of Blyth. These boys have
showed good sportsmanship at home
and away from home and they de
serve credit.

Don't be hindered in your work by the
"nerves”, headaches and gastric disturbances
resulting from defective vision. The only
safe plan is to have your eyes examined at
least once a year. It’s the smallest invest

If you realize what a large

“buried” in letters.
Special Commercial
If you have been unable to see any
Special Commercial students lately,
just blame it on the piles of "mailer”
material in our room.
You may wonder what a mailer is.
To the best of my knowledge it is an
immense group of circular letters
which are mailed to all households in
a community and the surrounding
vicinity,
vicinity
district,
literally
The first of the process was getting
the addresses typed on the envelopes
from the huge list of names of resi
dents completed by some “knowing”
individual, with this step completed,
we continued to arrange the material
to be sent, and “stuff’’ the envelopes.
Sealing the envelopes proved an easy
task for it seemed to portray to us
that the end was in sight. However,
we found we were wrong—the envel
opes had yet to be Counted into groups
of twenty-five and then stamped.
When the “mailer” was finally pack
ed into boxes, each group to go' to a
specific location, we knew we had
completed our job. We felt rather
proud for we decided we had helped
a worthwhile project, as well as learn
ing quite a bit for ourselves. Good
luck to the Easter Seal campaign!

An easier and more efficient method
of student training is found in the
experiment in education now being
adopted in many schools in the United
States. It is known as the Semester
system, and recently it has been
adopted by'some schools in the Prov
ince of Alberta.
In short, this new system means
more concentration on a subject in a
shorter period, with final examin
ations at the end of each Semester.
The effect* on, and help imparted to,
a student in the elimination of a long
list of subjects he must write at the
end of the school year is obvious.
This new venture in the organiz
ation of the subjects in the Ontario
High School Curriculum will receive
its first test in Ontario at the Ontario
Ladies’ College, Whitby, in. September
of this year.
The Semester system has been used
for four years in Alberta and in sev
eral States in the U.S.A., notably in
California, with exceptional success.
The necessity of carrying all subjects
for one year and of dividing the time
for study into six or more parts is
obviated. The student will CbriCen-
trate on three subjects for half tho
length of time and will be able to do
better work.
Furthermore, the taririoh sometimes
found at the end of the year'when
a student is fading a final examination
in all subjects is overcome, If a
student should fail in an examination,
under the Semester plan it would not
be necessary to repeat an entire year
but only one Semester.
At the Ontario Ladies’ College six
major subjects—English, Social Stud
ies, and four options—-will be placed
on the Semester basis and apply to
