,The topic of',this week has been the
recent school dance. All the worries
and headaches' were Soon 'erased when
it was learned that the school went
•considerably over their expenses and
a cheque will be soon given to the
Russian Relief. 'Those _who were
there admitted that the c1ance was a
big success. and expressed their opin-
ion that the school should have more
dances. However, there was a notice-
able decrease in the number of 'lower
form students in attendance. Still,
this is easily understood, since a stu-
dent will not come simply to :stand
against a wall all evening.. Certainly
lxo student can attempt 'to learn to
dance on a boor crowded with expert
dancers. Many people, including one
or two of the'. teaohers, 'stated that
small dances .should be- held once a
month to get these students out ,and
thus bring 'up the attendance of a fu-
ture dance. ,Perhaps soinething can
be done about this question if it is
brought into the light.
Second Form is to be congratulated
for welling the most tickets.... It is..en-
thusiasm such as, theirs that gets
,things done in a stool.
Are, you interested in badminton?
If so,� you will certainly want, to at-
tend the exhibition game on Friday
and 'learn the 'ins' and 'outs' of .the
game. `. Who knows perhaps there may
be a ;future • ba_dminton champion in
our sabool.
War Savings Stomps took°a slight
•drop •t1?ia week after rising consider-
ably up the charta week .ago. This
must have been an "off week," but it's
to be hoped there won't be another
teat Week.
The following editorial was written
Y Bwith)
PREVIOUS iris the aeiliool dame, but
would suit any school event:
The Oblivion .Of School Boards
Members of the •school, board should
be those who are ,parents ef children
;oiug , to. the. school. Quite often the
memberis Of ",the 'boded, isolated from
Pupils of the school, do not know ex -
ac the circuanatances of different
cases issuing in the institution. If the
members of the board bad children
going' tq the Collegiate, they would
thereby obtain an inside view of the
troubles arising, and perhaps some-
thing could be done to counteract
these difficulties without too much
red tape.
. For instance, a good example is
staring the Arts Club in the face over
the m,at'ter of student prices for the
coming drance. The school board has
set the .said price. • On the ' school
board there are two members only
who lime some or daughters attend-
ing the Collegiate. The others have
no children going to this school, and
in some cases they thave had no con-
nection with the school in this man-
ner for over five years, These mem-
bers of the board, a ho have children
attending Collegiate, can afford to
have their sons or daughters pay their
s'et price. On the other liand, there
are dozens of students in this school
who ' cannot afford it, but would have
a better chance of ,atteiding .,the
dance if the price is lowered: . To
make a dance a success, every stu-
dent should turn out. Can it be a
success if the students cannot afford
to pay an admission fee set by a
board who evidently does not realize
the facts concerning the price, of • ad-
missdon in our school? •
Questions Of the Week- .
What certain studentie bored with a
chemistry class, invented a magic pen-
cil which with the slightest wave of.
the .hand, would hang in mitt -air?
"Hocus-pocus"—better get that book
open!
Did you know •that some students
are privileged to leave before the
noon -bell rings? At least that is
what a certain student :thought and
began to put his overshoes on. Too
Abad the teacher stepped out into the
hall before he was through. It might
have been the "perfect get -away!"

._There w.es a good attendance
Wed-.
nesday afternoon at the Red Cross
meeting held in the hall, it being the
last day of the six weeks' course on
Health, Home Nursing and Emergen-
cies. Miss .A, M. Sterling, R.N., of
Bayfield, in her very capable manner,
gave' some very • helpful and worth
while instructions, which were enjoy-
ed.: by all. ,An average of 45 took the
course. At the close of the meeting
Miss Sterli`p.g was Galled forward and
following an address by, Rev. Reba
Hern, the president, Mrs. Geo. Reid,
presented her with an overnight case:
Miss Sterling made a very suitable : e •
ply. A dainty lunch was served arid
all enjoyed a social half-hour. The
meeting closed with "God Save the
King."

he will tell you. that here . seared stiff
of what ds going to happen when this
war is over. Why? Ueoause he haa,
already had a taste of ddepresalou, and
he didn't like 1t. Thousands upon
thousands of Canadians have, for the
first time in years, been able to hold
their heads high ,because of the false
prosperity that war had brought. They
are sure "of food, -clothing and. shel-
ter, so long as the war lasts, but are
they sure of even that after.victony?
I say that > our poet -war planning
should' have started before the war, If
dt had, the effort of Canadians, to se-
cure an early victory would have been
different, entirely different.
Let us aaherefore, do some post-
war planning as a victory incentive.
Let us give our fighters, both Military
and 'civil, •something beyond a mere
existence for which to fight. Let's
show them a future worth fighting for.
There are many post-war plans being
developed and many ef these are
practical and workable plans 'that will
only require a little- co-operation to
assure their success. Give some of
your time to the plan that appeals to
you most, but for God's sake and
your awn, de some post-war planning.
- "My 'personal appeal to you is in
behalf of aviation, the future industry
,of this great•nation. Before victory is
won, we. will have some two hundred
thousand mets and women in the R.C.
A.F. and another hundred thousand in
the aircraft industry maknte the wea-
pons. of aerial warfare. It is true that
we cannot hope to keep all, of these
people profitably employed fh peace-
time aviation, nor do all of them wish
to remain in the industry, but a large
percentage of those` under 30 years'
of age will still want to keep 'em fly-
ing.
"In our war effort we are creating
two gigantic reservoirs of education.
The aircraft employees and the per-
sonnel-of,the RJC.A,F. In the factor-
ies we are spending millions in the
training of aircraft mechanics in the
construction and servicing of aircrai{t.
In the air force • We are spending bil-
lions for the training of riggers and
fitters, administrative and air person-
nel. Let us use these reservoirs of
education for the benefit of our coun-
try. Let us give those who wish to
stay in this aviation industry an op-
portunity to do so. Let. us make vic-
tory something more than just win-
ning the war. Let us make it a vie -
tory that means peace, prosperity and
an -opportunity far all our people and
the millions more that will want to
come to our Canada because here is
a country of opportunity.
"It is .said.'that 'many of us spend
half our time wishing for things we
could have- if we didn't spend half
our time wishing.' "You all know of
the various organizations that have
campaigned for the past 25 years for
good roads. Through their efforts we
today have good roads; and an auto-
mobile industry that has been a bless-
ing to us all. We can make Canada a
leading „nation in International Air
Coxpmerde and in National Air Com-
merce if we will 'but develop airports
as we have developed godd roads.
The part your community, -wall play
in this great new industry is fer your
to decide. If you Will plan. your part
now by securing an airport site and
by encouraging neighboring commun-
ities to secure airport sites, you will
belaying the cornerstone for id. share
of the ,prosperity that aviation can
bring.
`'.Having secured a site and having
set aside funds for its development,
you have 'assured ' employment for
many -of your returning ,heroes. You
will have created a new source of em-
ployment that .will be only the little
adorn from ethical the. massive oak
will grow. A network of I:irpor•ts all
over Canada will permit .the establish -
M'; of feeder lines connecting all of
our smaller communities. with our
present air lines and our larger cit-
ies: No place in Canada will be more
than a few hours from any other place.
At certain strategic locations,- Canada
rnust have airports' that will accom-
modate the great airliners of the fu-
ture, so that we may maintain the
proud place in International air traf-
.fie that we have enjoyed irt. interna-
tional rail and steamship travel.
"When this war is over. we will
have the planes, the men and the abil-
ity to crack down more of our north-
ern frontiers, to uncover more of the
God-given wealth :that waits to serve
otrr needle, Our forests, our minerals,
our water power will call for new com-
munities and with new communities
comes new hope, new life, new pros-
perity.
' "Let's do some posit -war planning.
Let's yell it from the housetops. Let's
tell our fighter' and Oar workers that
we are doing somet•hipig about a bet-
ter Canada after victory. Every indus-
try can develop ,plans• for its own in-
dustry. Co-ordinate those plans with
other industries and agencies and yon
will soon realize the value of post-
war plans as a victory `incentive.

Good Breakfast
A good breakfast is a good start for
any day...
.Too often breakfast is the "Cin-
derella" of the day's meals. Lunch
and dinner are fussed over and dress-
ed up -while little Cinderella is .either
completely ignored or only given the
most cagual treatment. In the fairy
tale, Cinderella did most of the work
too ---and so it is with breakfast.
The majority of people do tseir

the morning and to do this work with-
out undue fatigue, a good breakfast
is absolutely essential.
