Ed Beard explained that courses are shorter *tow addoffer a greater variety Of .choices. Over • 200 students are enrolled in the ;Tuesday and Wedneaday night - classes; all adults and mostly women. "For some reason night courses in this area just don't attract men," Mr. Beard said He explained that even courses on snowmobile repairs, electronics, welding and defensive, driving - are ineffective in attracting more men to night school: "They just don't show up." Problems with enrolment have -dogged the night school for tnany years, with many projected courses cancelled due to lack of interest. But there's no lack of interest evident in the adults that do attend the classes. Mr. Beard said the most popu- lar courses are the "Metrics Made Easy" course, -offered free `by the Board of Education and, surprisingly, the hairdressing course. The upholstery class at- tracted so many students that it was finally split into two sessions Currie's euchre BELGRAVE — Currie's School euchre was held in the com- munity rooms on Friday evening with four tables in play.

The school is ' e a red to "more courses to fewer people" - he said, but a greater enrolm oat would be appreciated. A gr€ ' ter number of students interested in attendingnight school could mean an even greater variety of courses, provided, of course , instructors for these course ; could be found. —Mr: and Mrs. Elmer Wilkin- son left last Tuesday morning to spend a few weeks in Florida.
