Official Opening Held
Of Zion Central School
CARLOW, Nov. 2.—About 150
people attended the oMcial open-
ing ceremonies on Friday evening
of the new, $40,000 Zion Central
Sohool, located at the inter-
section of concessions five and six,
Colborne Township.
Chairman of the pa°og'aan was
rlohn Dunbar, chairman of the Col-
borne Township School Area.
Guest speaker was Hugh Hill, . of
Goderich, who has been for many
years associated with the municip-
al life of Colborne Township.
Mr. Hill traced the develop-
ment of "learning" as opposed to
"education." He poitnted out that
all the education one would re-
ceive in public school, high school
and university is not the ultimate
in learning. While , the Russian
scientists obtained education it
MRS K. FINNIGAN
was, nevertheless, their desire to
find out more about something
they had never been taught that
resulted in the creation of Sput-
nik, he said. He credited "learn-
ing" for this achievement. "All
the learning we might get will
avail us nothing if we are not
willing to impart our knowledge
to those with whom we come in
contact," - he said. "By so doing,
we ° will play on important part
not only in our community life
but also in broader fields."
The changed picture of education
in the rural areas was credited
by Mr. Hill to a failing off in the
population of the rural areas. To-
day it is found more economical
to transport pupils to centrally
located schools rather than oper-
ate a larger number of schools at-
tended by far too fess pupils, he
said.
He said the same influence was
being felt in agricultural life where
autorpation is replacng old time
ffarmi ng. The time will come
when farming will be done by re-
mbt<e control, he said. It all added
up ° to the fact that individuals do
not enjoy the security they once
did, nor do the nations of the
world, he said.
Lauds Co-operation
Reeve John Rernigihan told of
MRS. RAY FISHER
the increasing costs of providing
schools over the past years and of
hovy , the township council had co-
operated with the school area
board.
School Inspector G. G. Gardiner
said that most of the children in
rural Ontario are still occupying
post-war class rooms. For this
reason, he said, it was a pleasure
to see Colborne Township with a
new school equivalent to that of
modern schools that have been
recently built in other areas of
Ontario.
The formal presentation of a
plaque was made by Neil Lowery,
representing the Colborne Area
School Board, to Mrs. Kitchener
nigan, principal of the school.
This plaque is to be hung in the
school to mark the occasion. It
contains the names of the teach-
ers now there, Mrs. Finnigan and
Mr& Ray Fisher, and the following
trustees: John' Dunbar, chairman,
Neil Lowery, Benson Straughan,
James Prest and the secretary -
treasurer, William Watson.
Mr. Kalbfleisch of Zurich, the
contractor, was present and ex-
pressed pleasure on being awarded-

More than fences were de.
posited in the mall box at .the
front of the Goderich Post Og-
gon Hallowe'en night.
When a apeannber of the staff
went down to the basement
the next morning to collect the
outgoing mail from the box
into which it falls from the
street deposit ebuute, he was
greeted with an unusual
"meow." Then, a frightened
kitten jumped out of his all
night confinement in the box
and headed for freedom. It
had been pined in the chute
by Hallowe'en pranksters.
That wasn't the foot time the
box had harbored other than
legitimate mail. Once a pigeon
was placed iin it and at other
times some humorists have de-
posited various unmentionable
pieces of ladies' wearing ap-
parel.

rom Leaves Ruin Washing
Reeve E. C. Fisher received a
barrage of phone cads from com-
plaining housewives to the effect
that the sanctity of family wash
day, Monday, was being violated.
The violators were none other than
people burning leaves. The smoke
was leaving the white clothing
with a tattle -tale grey, they said.
Reeve Fisher told Town Council
last Friday night that possibly
some arrangements could be made
not to start up the tares until
about 4- p.m., in order to give the
clothing on ; ; +e family wash line
time to dry.
Town Clerk S. H. N, late tried to
=call some by-law about anoke
nuisance that would take care =.f
the situation but could not recall
any offhand. He said the only by-
law he could recall was one which
said that all su h fires must be
extinguished by dusk.
The matter was referred to a
eommibtee for consideration and,
in the meantime, bylaws respect-
ing the matter will be looked into.,
