THE BRUSSELS POST, NOVEMBER 29, 1978 15
There will be many happy,
and many not so happy faces
coming through the doors of
Madill this week. Teachers
have started to return the
examination papers from the
exams held over the last
week-and-a-half. The school
page staff would like to offer
some thoughts, to console
those who might not have
done as well as they thought,
and to reinforce some atti-
tudes for those who did do
well.
1. Failure teaches success.
2. In great attempts it is
glorious even to fail.
3. When glory comes, loss of
memory follows. - French
4. Ifis a worthier thing to
deserve honour than to pos-
sess -it.
5. Genius does what it must,
and talent does what it can. -
Edward Robert BulwerLytton
6. Be prepared for the worst
but hope for the best. -
Benjamin Disraeli
7. Misfortunes one can en-
dure .they come from the
outside, they are accidents.
But to suffer for one's own
faults - ah! there is the sting
of life! - Oscar Wilde
8. Your own mind is a sacred
enclosure into which nothing
harmful can enter except by
your permission. - Arnold
Bennett
9. The greatest mistake you
can make in life is to be
continually fearing you will
make one. - Elbert Hubbard
10. The trouble with most
people is that they think with
their hopes or fears or wishes
rather than with their minds.
- Walter Duranty
11. In seeking wisdom, thou
'art wise; in imagining that
thou 'hast attained it, thou
art a fool. - Rabbi Ben-Azai
12. (and in conclusion for the
As well as simplyteach-
ing the art course, our new
art teacher has been using
the school halls and staff
rooms to display the students
art. The practice has been
enthusiastically welcomed by
the staff, and should be a
motivating factor for the
students, as recognition of
creative ability makes the
expression of that ability
more worthwhile.
This is the third Week we
have featured Journal Draw-
ings on our page, and now
we would like to tell you the
academic purpose of them.

dent. The purpose Of the

teaching is only the art of

purpose of satisfying it after-
ward. - Anatole France -

CONGRATULATIONS!
Mr. Elliott one of the math
and business teachers from
Madill, was as "proud-as-
punch" Friday November
17th, when his wife gave
birth to' a 3120 gm (give or
take a mg) bouncing baby
boy. Brett Douglas was taken
home from the hospital last
Wednesday and Mr. Elliott's'
haggard appearance Thurs-
day morning was a clear
indication of Brett's healthy
lungs. Mr. Elliott reports
that he is concerned with
Brett's progress since he
can't hold a basketball yet,
but the proud father says
that his dribbling is superb.

1. used as a visual record of
discoveries
2. to develop ideas and
imagination, and
3. to encourage self-
expression through the
identification of feeling
(often therapeutic).
Each student initially
chose a symbolic object to
draw realistically from home.
With this drawing they also
wrote down why, they drew it
and what it represented to
them. The succeeding
assignments' involved adding
actions to this object. They
have had to make it disinte-
grate, drip and whirl. These
actions are problems the
students must solve, and
they are forced to think and
use their imagination.
