This Week At the Seaforth High School
(By SHIRLEY FRIEDAY)
Did you all enjoy a pleasant boll- 18th or 19th. We are forewarned
day? Okay, don't hit me! I'll take
it back. • of course you didn't when
your conscience bothered you ev-
ery time you stepped outside the
door; you felt you should be study-
ing. The weather may be unpre-
dictable, but there is one thing we
!know for certain—our exams com-
mence on the 11th, the tenth for
some unfortunates, and end the

that they will be tough, Since for
some these will be the last before
they are expected in June. Now
that is nothing to scoff at; 75 per
cent may seem like the impossible
but believes me it is a lot easier
in June having to write a few less
subjects. With this in mind,• the
best of luck in your studying.
The Thursday before the holi-
days was a very busy one. What
with everyone scurrying about
looking fox- dishes, silverware and
this, that and the other thing.
The success of the Junior Farmers'
banquet goes to Miss Stewart and
her helpers who catered to it. The
tables forming a 'Ub looked very
attractive when arranged, and the
meal was said to have been de-
licious by the 70 some present.

Our long-awaited skating party
finally. didtake .place, IUlonday, the
2nd. C'onsideri 1g how close those
exams are gettitlg, the turnout was
surprising. The ice wasn't as
smooth'as it could have been,, but
then what can you expect for noth-
ing; it was fun while it lasted any-
way. About 10 o'clock a broom -ball
game was played with hockey
sticks mostly. Quite a wild game
it was at that! The .boys would
make a terrific swing .only to dis-
cover, that they had missed by a
mile. Don Dale refereed the so-
called game, but since there were
no captains or names for the
teams, all I can say is that the
score was 3-1. The students troop-
ed over to the High School gym to
try out the new records purchased
by the council. As usual the square
dances were received with enthusi-
asm. Gar, should we have a plaque
erected on the spot on the floor
you claimed for your own during
this dance?

of interest, please hand them in
immediately. There isn't much time
left as the llth of this month is
the deadline for the sheets to be

Question of the week? What

STAFFA
The Late Miss A. Davies
Very suddenly early Tuesday
morning, March 27, death came to.
Miss Annie Davies, the oldest na-
tive resident of Hibbert Township,
where she has lived all her life.
One of a family of nine children,
there remains to mourn her loss,
two sisters, Miss Elizabeth Davies,
of Ottawa, and Mrs. Wm. Doig, Jr.,
Tuckersmith, who with her hus-
band and son, llugh J- Doig, have
lived with her recently. Also sur-
viving is 'a nephew, Archie Hog-
garth, Tucltersmith, and two niec-
es, Mrs. J. Wesley Green, Mitchell,
and Mrs. .2. F, Ingram, of Hensall.
Many friends and relatives came
to pay their last respects to one
who was well and favorably known
throughout the community. The
funeral from the family home to
Staffa cemetery was conducted by
the Rev. Mr, Duncanson, of Crom-
arty, and Mrs. Frank Kling, Sea -
forth, a cousin, contributed two
very appropriate solos, accompan-
ied by' Mrs. John McGregor, of Eg-
mondville. Many beautiful flowers
surrounded the casket and a lovely
bouquet of spring flowers was sent
by the Ladies' Aid of Cromarty
Presbyterian Church, of which she
was a member for many years.
The pallbearers were Harold Cole-
man, Alf. Ross, Edgar and Leslie
Butson„ Bert Fell and Albert Smale.

The Editor, The Huron Expositor:
In regards to the. piece in The
Expositor on January 12, 1951, (Td
the Editor), the writer speaks of
stores closing on Wednesday af-
ternoon at 12:30 p.m. The writer
of the article is against it.
I don't believe that he or she
realizes that Wednesday afternoon
is a rest for store workers who
spend 10-12 hours daily waiting on
the public, five days a week, and

five !outs on Wednesday.
While attending high school I
clerked in a store during the holi-
days and I looked forward to. Wed-
nesdayl afternoon as a holiday.
Many business firms have all of
Saturday or Saturday afternoon
off, so why isn't n, store worker
entitled. to ,have a half -holiday in
the middle of the week when it
isn't too busy?
Sincerely yours,
BERT SIiAW, Jr.
Toronto, April 2, 1951.
Editor, The Huron Expositor:
Dear Sir: I was attracted to an
item on the editorial page of your
contemporary (Stratford Beacon -
Herald), in which the following
reference is made to a recent ad-
dress by Gordon Bennett to mem-
bers of the Goderich Junior Cham-
ber of Commerce, on the subject of
'Urban -Rural Relations': "There is
no doubt that the town resident by
becoming familiar with and help-
ing to ease the problems of his
rural neighbors is, in fact, helping
himself and his town. The town is
but a centre about which the com-
munity revolves, and its success is
bound up with the success of the
farming community it serves."—
(Expositor).
That sounds like a timely and
authentic note. It cannot be over-
emphasized that the above princi-
ple of inter -dependence, as between
the folk on the farm and their
urban brethren, is the key to the
solption of many of today's prob-
lems—and not alone in Ontario and
Canada, but no less, throughout
the world.
So, therefore, this urban Cana-
dian feels like sending in one read-
er's approving word. To my think-
ing, it is the function of the free
press to continuously spotlight this
inter -relationship in its news and
editorial columns. May I be per-
mitted the privilege to appending
a. brace of pertinent 'quotes' from
two noted rural minds, to flavor
this little letter—one recorded in
my clipping -book some 15 years
ago, and the other this morning:
(1) "The modern world has pro-
vided mankind with marvels of
mechanical invention, to utilize
and bring to fruition the bounties
of Nature. The same intelligence
applied to the distribution of these
blessings, instead of allowing them
to be exploited for the enrichment
of a selfish t•ew, would solve not
only the pressing problems of our
underpaid and overworked agricul-
tural industry, but it would banish
unemployment; put an end to our
idiotic and criminal wars = the
tyranny of man over man and class
over class, and make this earth
what we believe its Creator in-
tended it to be: a fit earthly home
for those created in His image, to
inherit,"—(Dr. Henry Wise Wood,
Alberta, Nov. 13, 1935); and:
(2) "This (rural -urban) appreci-
ation should not be confined entire-
ly to the producer. but, rather,
should be the concern of every citi-
zen, There is an old saying which
will bear repetition: 'If you wish
to raise the standard of agricul-
ture in any given country, you
must first raise the standards of
the concept of the significance of
agriculture in the minds of the
people who live in that Country."—
(Professor R. G. Knox. O.A.C.: in
Farm Edition, Guelph Mercury,
March 31, 1951).

ers lending an added attraction.

the many neighbors and friends,

ing read by Mrs. B. Moir and pres-
