Badminton is off to a smashing good start and as soon as the fields dry out, soccer will be kicked off. Students are making odd re- solutions-half of which have already been broken-for the third term, swearing that this time they would be the dedicated dedicated angelic students our teachers long for. Of course recent inclement weather has put rather a damper on school activities but our student body hasn't been inactive. Hobbs has many clubs and organizations and it really isn't that hard for a determined student to find something to do to keep away from those cold winds. There's house league badminton running running right now as I already mentioned, and that is run and organized by Frank Kolb, Janet Magee, and the school's physical education teacher, Mr. Coles. Also there is gymnastics gymnastics run by Mrs. Lomax, French Club, organized by Mr. Smith our French teacher, the Dungeons and Dragons Club, supervised by Mrs. Hill, the drama group instructed by Mrs. Hill and most noon hours the library and science room are open to students wishing to finish work. With gymnastics and badminton, students are encouraged encouraged and instructed 9s to how to better their athletic skills. The French Club is mainly to encourage students to take an interest in Canada's French culture. In the drama group, students are instructed by Mrs. Hill as to how they can improve their acting skills and as for the Dungeons and Dragons Dragons Club...well, we'll save that for another time. As you can see, our students are kept busy with extracurricular extracurricular activities. As a matter of fact, this year has been one of Hobbs' most involved involved and spirited yet and I'm sure that before the term is out, students will once more be asked to "Show us their school spirit!" I am equally sure that they will again. Cindy Holder WWW#:- ' KM6 KM.

The displays illustrate the rapid evolution of money in Canada. The first paper money issued was "playing card" money, in common use for approximately 75 years in the colony of New France. Few examples of this money exist today, probably because retention after the redemption date was punishable by death. Later, bank notes were issued by private bankers and merchants, predominantly in Lower Canada. During the pre-Confederation 1850's and 1860's, banks obtained charters charters and issued their own currencies. currencies. The central bank, the Bank of Canada, was created in 1934 and given sole responsibility for the issue of paper currency in Canada. In 1935, the first paper notes of the Bank of Canada were issued, with each denomination denomination being bilingual for the first time. During the next 15' years the chartered banks were requested to decrease their notes by percentages. By 1950, in accordance with the program, chartered banks paid to the Bank of Canada sufficient funds to redeem the amount of their notes still in the hands of the public-over $13 million. The last note of the Bank of Toronto was issued in 1937 and the Dominion Bank issued its final note in 1938. Today, few people see anything anything but Bank of Canada notes except in collections or exhibits. Commenting on the display, branch manager, W. L. (Bill) Belfour said: "We are very pleased to bring this collection of old bank notes to Bowmanville. Bowmanville. I hope that many people will get a chance to come into our branch and enjoy these fascinating examples of our past." The exhibit will be on display display until June 3. Women are by no means the only people who enjoy rummage sales. Alf Garrod of Newcastle Village is a hearty, red-blooded sale goer who makes some pretty good finds at local bazaars. The gear Mr. Garrod is shown with above is not necessarily representative of the items he traditionally picks up. Instead, he was hamming it up for The Statesman photographer. Mr. Garrod attended the Bowmanville St. John's Joannas rummage sale last Friday in the church hall.
