This community was sorry
to learn last Tuesday that
Mrs. Lorne McAllister of
Teeswater, the former
Velma Stewart, had passed
away. She grew up on the
sideroad north of Langside
Cemetery. Here she was a
friend to all and ever ready
to help anyone needing
assistance. The community
extends sympathy to her
husband and family, to her
sister, Mrs. Dave Moffat,
and Mr. Moffat and to her
brother Donald, his wife and
family.
It was also learned last
week that Mack Inglis of
Ridgetown had passed away.
Mack was well known in this
area where he grew to young
manhood and was the main
thresher for the community,
lie had such a large route
that it was hard to complete
it before snowfall. The
community extends sym
pathy to brothers: Tomf
West Wawanosh, Rodney
and family of Earlton and
John of British Columbia,
and sister Pauline and
family of Whitechurch.
Friends in the community
are happy that Mrs. Earl
BONNIE LOUGHRAN'S project on rust won third place in the Grade 6 physical
category in the Wingham Public School's science fair last week. (What's News

I thought March Break
was a holiday! Most Grades
6, 7 and 8 students spent their
time studying for tests and
finishing up Science Fair
projects. Each and every
'student put a considerable
amount of effort into each
and every project, which
were displayed in our
auditorium. As a personal
viewer of all the projects I
will add that not one person
put less than 100 per cent into
his or her science fair
project.
The projects were divided
into two categories: physical
and biological. Physical
projects had to do with non-
living subjects, while
biological projects were
concerned with living
organisms, such as plants
and worms.
In the Grade 6 biological
category, Rob Harrison
received first'' prize for his
project on product selection.
Andrea Grant was second
with moulds and Heather
Bishop was third for her
research on plants.
' Peter Poulin was first in
the Grade 6 physicial
category with his project on
the solar system. Scott Neil
was second with a, battery
comparison and Colleen
Smith was third for her work
on windmills.
Andrew Mann was first in
the Grade 7 biological
division with his "Closed
Ecosystem" project. Hailey
Robertson was second with
photosynthesis and Brett
Gillespie and Chris Thynne
were third with their com-
bined project on cats.
Karen Clugston's project
on erosion was first in the
Grade 7 physical category,
while Jodi Mundell was
second with her work °on
barometers and Bonnie
Loughran was third with her
study of corrosion.
t
In Grade 8, Leanne Sim-
pson was first with her ex-
perinients on alfalfa sprouts.
Cheryl Underwood's project
on erosion was second and
Paul Edwards was third for
his work with plants.
Nancy Walton's study on
"Which are the best fabrics"
won first prize in the Grade &
physical. category. Heather
McLennan found out which
towels and tissues are best
and won second prize, while
Murray Lapp took third with
his project on strength and
architecture.
.I Ili sure' all the judges had
a hard time choosing the
winners and I'm sure as well
that all the students enjoyed
this learning experience
once again this year.

Last Wednesday' the
Kindergarten students
visited the Maple Keys
Sugar Bush at Molesworth.
They, saw how they collected
sap using buckets, grayity
and a vacuum: pump. Sarah,
the pioneer lady, showed us
how the Indians collected
sap and boiled in a hollow
log. She also showed us how
to boil sap in a big black,
kettle and the evaporator.
The sugar shanty smelled
like maple syrup and we all
hada taste.
The students took sap
caught from their own maple
tree and made syrup as a
follow-up to their visit.

Last week a former Golden
Circle School student, Ruth

congratulate Ruth and Barry
for their achievements.

March Break! What a
week ! All the students from
reading readiness in Mrs.
Anderson's class had fan-
tastic times. "It was great
not to have to work," said
John Clugston. Some
children went to the their
grandmas' _and some just
played at home.
—Kira Stuckey
Mrs. MacRae's Grade 1
class has been spending a lot
of time on spring and Easter
'recently. For instance, they
dreamt they were in a world
of green. For spring and
Easter they made bunnies.
One more exciting thing the
students did was have a taste
of maple syrup and they
learned a song about maple
syrup.
—Tonya Stainton
This past week Mr, Lisle's
class has been doing a series
of tests. On Friday of last
week the report forms went
home. We already have
started the last term of
school and many pupils will
be happy to get out for the
summer.
This year the science fair
went really well and Mr.
Lisle said he is really
pleased with the great deal
of hard work and effort that
were put into the projects.

Last week in Mr. Shaw's
room was jumping week.

very pleased with Tim C.-
Currie's second -place finish
in the Remembrance Day
essay contest.
The Huron Hearts
demonstration temn per-
formed in GoderichZurich
