BALL BY BOB BEATTIE This year W.D.H.S. wel- comed a new teacher to its commercial staff in the person of Mrs. Ball. Born in Saskatchewan, Mrs. Ball received her elementary education in Winnipeg and her secondary education in Tim- mins, Guelph and Toronto.

She is married and has three sons, the eldest now working in Guelph; one in high school and one in grade eight; and hasone daughter who is studying music at the University of Toronto. Her outside interest is mainly in the church as she helps her husband in his church work. Since her marriage to Rev. George N. Ball she has lived in Manitoulin, West China and Western Ontario. Mrs. Ball finds from her ex- perience in living in West Chi- na that the students do not seetn to realize how good they have actually got it compared to the teenagers of West China who are lucky if they have a 'chance to learn how to read land write. She believes that it is about time students realized the numerous facilities provid- 2d by the schools and to make ,etter use of them. Mrs. Ball is enjoying what she calls the other side of the fence, as she has been a house- wife for many years, and she very much enjoys the compan- ionship of the charming staff with which she is working. The entire student body joins in wishing Mrs. Ball many years of teaching success at W.D. H.S.

The committee recommend- ed "that since the Ontario Agri- cultural College and Macdon- ald Institute are now part of the University of Guelph, and since students of each take courses other than those of agriculture and home economics, consider- ation onsideration be given to revising the terms under which scholarships are awarded." REQUEST MINISTER TO CONSIDER ADDING TO SCHOOL CURRICULUM GODERICH--On recommen- dation of the county's legisla- tive and educational commit- tee, presented by Reeve Ken- neth Stewart, McKillop, coun- cil concurred in a resolution from North Norwich township proposing that private schools operated by various groups be brought up to the standard of public schools in the same area. Reeve Stewart, speaking of the report, noted a lack of in- terest in civic affairs by ele- mentary and high school stu- dents, and also a lack of know- ledge on the part of these stu- dents in matters pertaining to all levels of government. The place to remedy this would be in the school curriculum, He therefore moved: "That we re- quest lion, W, G. Davis to con- sider the possibility of adding to the present curriculum, at the level the minister would deem proper, a study in government procedure at all levels." This was adopted, and copies ordered sent to the member for Iluron and to other county coup- ci15. Patty Cutter, Mary Joan Corrin and Audrey Coultes at the last football game Library Club The Library Club has been under the direction of Mrs. Mc- Cauley for three years. There are 34 new members and 12 experienced ones. Last year each of the old members put in over 20 hours of work and one member put in 40 hours. This year one member, at least, al- ready has 12 hours to her credit. (I say her because out of the46 members there are only two boys.) The club's purpose is to gain experience in working with books and to assist Mrs. Mc- Cauley. Besides learning to sign books out and to put them away, we can classify books, do minor mending and general- ly keep the library a smooth - running affair. We are proud of our library and our library club. Mrs. Smith: Does your hus- band play poker for money? Mrs. Jones: I don't think so, but those who play with him do.
