EDUOATIOxti r3.L EQUIPMENT'
Exeter High School has won an enviable rep-
utation among the Secondary Schools of Huron
County, and its'raPid, development has meant
much to the Citizens of the Southernp ortion of
the County. Until a comparatively recent date
the Work wascarried on as a Continuation
School, but it became apparent that large oppor-
tunities were opening outin this conxmnnity
for a really progressive_ High School. A small
beginning' was made as a three teacher school,
but in 1921 it was realized that a fourth teach-
er was required to properly cover the course of
studies and to gi'v'e that efficiency to the teach-
ing staff which would bring the best results,
Co se uentlY a
u v Science laboratory va
s
equipped and a Science Master placed in charge
of the work.
The wisdom of this step in advance was -ap
parent' in a striking manlier when the 1922 De-
partmental Examinations were reported. Al-
though Upper School classes had been organized
for the first time just the previous September,
out of 59 papers written on, 60% were success-
ful., *In Middle School out of 231 at-
tempts 78% were successful and of these 56%
took honors. In Lower School out of 316 at-
tempts 86% were successful and of these 60
took honors. Over 80% of all papers written
on throughout the four forms were passed, with
honors in 54% of these. Little wonder that
this remarkable showing was the talk of the
whole district.
But this splendid demonstration of efficiency
on the part of the teaching staff of Exeter High
School had another result, When the Fall term
of 1922 opened there were so many registrations
of new students attracted by the excellent re-
cord of the School that the Board was obliged
to ,provide;; more accommodation and engage a
fifth teacher.
The 1923-1924 term will open on September
4th, with only two changes in the Staff. Hr.
E. J. Wethey, M.A., the principal continues at
the head of the Department of Mathematics.
Miss Ross will not only take the Latin and
Frenel 'as formerly, but will also teach Upper
re
School Latin and.Miss Torrance will ag&in teach
the subjects she had last year. The Board has
been particularly fortunate in filling the vacan_
cies on tixe Staff. l+'or the position of head of the
Science Department, Mr. Henry Bowers, B.A.,
au honor graduate and Specialist in Science and
Mathematics, of Trinity College, Dublin, and a
Specialist in Seieuce of Toronto University has
been secured. : Mr. Bowers is a young man of
great promise and Exeter High School is to be
congratulated upon this acquisition to its Staff.
Theother vacancy will be filled by the appoint-
ment of Mr. J. 'H, McQuarrie, B.A., an honor
graduate of Queens University in History.
Exeter High School is now fully equipped so
that whether the student is seeking the Teach-
er's
s or a University education, he
will find at Exeter the best facilities for, his .ca-
reer. Moreover,. Exeter Nigh School will aim to
give a good general education to those who may
desire to improve their knowledge, irrespective
of the professions.
SCHOLARSHIPS
The Board has provided a list of attractive
Scholarships for each'Forni so that effort may
be stimulated and encouraged and ability suit-
ably recognized.
ACCOMMODATION FOR NO-N-1,.ESIDEN `S S
Railway
y connection With nearby villages is
such thatall the class iieri`ods can be attended
without serious loss of time. This means a great
deal to those coming from outside points. The
student will find at Exeter, both in the excellent
High School Library and in the large Public
Library, additional help iu his studies in the
many books of reference and of general liter._
ature available.
The Board of Education cordially 'invites
the students of Exeter High School District to
avail themselves of the facilities provided here,
and undertakes to use every endeavor to keep
the standard of efficiency high, so that, with ap-
lication on the part of the student, the best re-
sults may be obtained.
High School Training is a necessity -not a
luxury.

A *new high record of pro-
duction was established by Cana-
dian, newsprint, mills during May
with ' 110,252 tons, an increase
of nearly 10,000 tons over the month
of ' April and 15,750 over May of
last year. The daily productionduction in
May was 4,084 tons, the highest in
the history of the Canadian indu`s-

Following the : opening of the
Banff -W indermere Motor Highway,
Lieutenant Governor Nichol of

Several new air stations are to be
opened in , Ontario and Quebec in
the near future for the, purpose., of
extending the forest area to be pa-
trolled by airplanes.: A base is to
be established at. Ramsay Lake near

Ontario work will radiate; opera-
tions being carried op at Orient -
Bay, Remi Lake and at least two

If tlfe' Canadian ire -war exports
of flour are considered as 100, the
Dominion's average export total
between 1921 and 1923 can be con-
sidered as 207. Comparatively,
pre-war exports of the United
States ;being ratedi-at 100, its pres-
ent export is at the rate of 147.
This indicates that Canada has
more than doubled her export trade
in ' flour while the United States
has increased its' trade by 47 per
cent. Before the war Canada ex-
ported 3,832,000 barrels, while at
present her exports average 7,885,-
000 barrels a year.—"Journal of
Commerce.

Mr. Georges ;Delrue, one of the
most important personages of
France arrived in Montreal by the
S.S. "Minnedosa" to take up resi-'
dence at St. Johns, Que. Georges
is two and a half years old and has
spent most of his life with his grand
parents in Tourcoin, a small town
on the border line of Belgium and
France. The journey from the old
homestead, via Antwerp, Georges
made alone but never out of sight
of the watchful eyes of the officials
and servants of the company.
Major General Lord Lovett, a
passenger on the Canadian Pacifica
liner "Montcalm, and delegate to
the British Empire Forestry- Con-
ference, Ottawa, said in connection
with his investigations into Cana-
dian forestry methods and applied
science, "England has but a small
forest area in comparison to Can-
ada, nevertheless, her forests were
depleted two-thirds to meet the
emergencies of the War, -and now
we are determined to recover this
doss` by practical reforestation. We
have been working at this for the
last three years and expect to make

Tests of ceramic clay resources in
British Columbia are being plan-
ned this summer by the British
Columbia Government. The tests
will be made under the auspices of
the Department of Education and
the Department of Indnstries. There
are many varieties of clays in Brit -
dish Columbia and some are reported
to be particularly suited to the,
manufacture of high class pottery,
ware.
A'' recluction of express rateson
westward moving business between
Europe and Canada was announced
by the Foreign Department of the
Dominion Express 'Company re-
cently. This reduction on westbound
shipments follows a similar cut on
shipments from Europe to' Canada
made a little while ago, and amounts
to a reduction of approximately
twenty per cent. on the trans -ocean
trip. The rates came into effect on
July 9 between all points in Canada
and Europe.
