More than two hundred and fifty members from throughout the province, and invited guests attended the luncheon on October 19 at which Frank Miller was the guest speaker. "I don't object to a person making a fair profit out of health care, if, in the end, the cost of services is less than if the state eliminated the profit motive", he said. He told members of the association that'he would do his best "to keep them in business" in view of the efficiency and economical administration of nursing home care, In comparing the costs of nursing homes to that of homes for the aged, which are state controlled, he expressed the opinion that nursing homes need to be kept going. In view of rising costs facing nursing homes, he told members that he was already considering an increase in payment to nur- sing homes to be negotiated with the Association. Nelson Scheifele of Craigholme Nursing Home in Ailsa Craig attended the three day meeting. It was an historic meeting. Tuesday members representing long term care groups in other provinces met in London to form a Federation of Long Care Associations. The new organization will provide a national 'Voice for health care professionals serving the long term care field in Canada.

There., were some problems. The problemswer, not as,,ANtensivel as some rumours wonlci.! have them however. For example from what I have heard one would think that there were scores of drunken students engaged in a Bacchanalian debauch. I have heard that there were 56.0 grade 9 students arrested. I have heard that there was great damage done to the school. I have heard that it was quite bad at the next dance which of course we haven't had yet! For the sake of the students' council who offer the dancesand for those students who do behave properly let me state the facts: 1. A number of students had been drinking. These were almost entirely grade 9's with a few grade 10's. 2. The police did charge 6 people of whom 2 were students. 3. The police did warn 9 others some of whom were students. 4. There was no damage of any kind. 5. The general behaviour at the dance was not especially to my liking but then neither was the band. The question of course is what is to be done as far as dances are concerned. Neither the Students Council, the staff nor myself are interested in having all sorts of difficulty about dances. We simply will not have dances if student behaviour warrants that decision. Teen-age drinking is a social problem that will not go away if we stop dances but at least the school and the students council and the prefects won't •have to cope with it. Students are, therefore, warned that the dances will be stopped as they have been at many schools if drinking persists as a problem. After the next dance a decision will be made as to whether or not it will be the last one and it will be, the last one unless it is much better handled by the student body. The following points should be noted: Drinking is not allowed and persons who have been drinking will not be admitted. The sign-in procedure is meant to allow South Huron boys to By JOY SCHEIFELE stressed the value of good eating In keeping with Nutrition habits at their October meeting Week, the members of the held at the Masonic Hall in Ailsa Riverview Women's Institute Craig. bring girlfriends or South Huron girls to bring boyfriends Who are not students. It is not meant to allow students to sign in just anyone who is not a student. The sign-in procedure -will vhe tightened up. We will discuss with 'the Student Council and the Prefects the probability of persons leaving the school after 10:30 p.m. not being re-admitted, The general behaviour must be acceptable. While the last dance was not as bad as some rumours have suggested, it was not as good as it can be. It is up to the students whether dances continue or not. You have one more chance. J. L. Wooden Thanks To the Editor — Guardian I would like to express my thanks to the Students' Council for the contribution made by the Council to Commencement. Without this contribution' com- mencement would be much less outstanding than it is. Phil Knight deserves particular com- mendation for his handling of the awards presentation. I would also like to thank the staff for their contribution. The teaching staff provides the Honour Student Dinner and three awards of $100 each. Red and the custodial staff, Doris and the office staff and Jenny and her staff do all of the work in connection with the Dinner and Commencement. Our- thanks to them. Commencement and the Honour Dinner proceeded ex- tremely well. A successful evening such as this is possible only because everyone is so cooperative and helpful. Thank you. J. L. Wooden, Principal Theft concern To the Editor: I would like to comment about an area of concern which has arisen once again during the past few weeks, This is not a new issue but a recurring problem. This is the problem of students stealing from each other, Every year we have instances of theft and every year people around the area talk over the telephone and Over the back fence about how dreadul the students ADVANCE BOOKINGS The school is very heavily booked during the evenings and on weekends. Groups or in- dividuals who are interested in booking gym space should call the school well in advance, The evening class programme is underway with about 25 classes. Anyone interested in evening classes, 'either with suggestions or an interest in teaching should call the school. We will be offering another group of courses in January, are at the high school; how awful the stealing is. Stealing is an unacceptable practice. We will suspend students for stealing. However, that is not my point at this time, my point is ▪ this: stealing has not reached epidemic proportions. Students do not go around clutching their purses or wallets or coats to keep the thieves away, There have been instances of wallet theft from locker rooms just as there has been every year for the 22 years that I have been here. Most of the time we have difficulty proving who did the stealing. Sometimes we do find out and suspend the person for the maximum allowable period. But the number of instances is small and would be non-existent if students would lock up their valuables. I hear from parents, of grade 9 students especially, about how other students steal things from lockers. This has happened. Most of the time it happens because students give each other locker combinations. Often people claim items are stolen when they have been lost. We have piles of lost articles which go unclaimed every year. In any case let me repeat that, yes, there are thieves at this sthchinogosl satnnd len.yTes, he pocecouprleencheavoef theft seems to be a cyclical phenomenon. There will be a number of instances all at one time. It is a matter that concerns us. It can only be stopped if students cooperate with the staff to prevent theft in the first place and to help catch the thieves if there is an incident. One lastpoint the percentage of thieves among the s tudent body is probably less than it is among the general population but that small number gives everyone a bad name. Everyone ends up being branded as a potential thief because of the actions of a few dishonest people. It can be stopped entirely if everyone cooperates.

Mrs. Nola McEwen presented a paper on nutrition. She too urged members to be aware of food values and plan menus ac- cordingly. She reminded members that milk is an im- portant part of good diet. "Junk foods are all far too -readily available", she warned. The problem of inadequate lunches provided by schools was discussed and the need to support groups trying to im- prove the situation.
