xd & CARTWRIGHT HIGH SCHOOL NEWS by Carol Rushton Here we all are back at school again! This year we have a grand total of 97 students, if I count right. Big school eh? Well you'd sure think it was big if you saw the spirit shown by all. We had our grade 9 initiation day last week and I must say I congradulate all the 1976 grade 9's for being such swell sports. After all, they did have to parade around in funny outfits, war paint, had to recite tongue twisters to the entire school, and as if that were not humiliation enough--we sold them at an Aucution sale! As far as costumes, the girls had to wear long-johns, with shorts over top, T-shirts with bibs over them, news- paper hats, one contruction boot and one high heeled shoe. The guys had to wear pyjama bottoms with a homemade diaper over top, button shirts tied at the waist, must have a tail and carry a stuffed animal, The most common footwear was one rubber boot and one running shoe. All round there was lots of fun and smiles, even though an unauthorized stray egg or ripe tomato might sneak into the picture once in a while. We made rather a lot of money on the selling of "slaves". In fact Mr. Pais- ley was heard to jokingly consider selling all the kids, if the prices kept up. All in all, the student council made $50.00 in the selling of grade 9's, to older students. The slaves were only slaves for the day and their chores Hospital Auxiliary News Hospital Auxiliary met in the hospital on Monday, September 13 with 26 ladies in attendance. President Mrs. Pugh called the meet- ing to order and all repeat- ed the auxiliary prayer in unison. Minutes of the June meet- ing were read by the secre- tary and adopted. Fifteen thank you notes were read in appreciation of gifts re- ceived by new babies. In absence of the treasur- er, Mrs. Pugh gave the treasurers report which showed a encouraging bank balance. ° Camille Crosier gave a detailed report on the Tuck Shop finances which indicat- ed a busy and profitable summer, . ) Our administrator, Mr. Brown, was present at the meeting and spoke briefly on the new equipment which hus been ordered and hoped it would be ready for use by November. Marion Webster reported 42 boys and 22 girls born in hospital since April. The auxiliary will supply wool to any one who will knit boo- ties to keep a supply on hand. We are greatly to Sea- grave U.C.W. for the dona- tion of a lovely layette to the hospital and to other friends for their donations of hand knitted articles for the Tuck Shop. Joanne Hueston reported on the volunteer Program in the hospital and explained a new work record for the workers. She also asked for more volunteer workers to join in this program. The fall conference was announced for Sept. 22 in Port Hope and a good repre- sentation is planning to attend. - The Hospital Auxiliaries Convention will be in Tor- onto, Oct. 24 to 27 and our President and Vice Presi- dent will be delegates to attend from our auxiliary. A committee was appoint- -ed to purchase a rocking chair for the children's ward. Meeting adjourned and lunch was served by Mrs. Fisher and Mrs. Mozienko. -Mrs. Gertrude Wanamaker Correspondance Secretary BAHA'l FAITH You are Invited to an Evening with ARINI & ROB JONES From Australia On Wednesday, September 29 - 8:00 p.m. Port Perry Courthouse Sponsored by Baha'is of Whitby ANALDA Garden Centre Dutch Bulbs - 'Daffodils- Tulips - Hyacinths Bulbs for Rock Gardens Top Quality e Evergreens e Chrysanthemums e Trees e Shrubs WINTERIZE YOUR LAWN WITH CIL \ WINTERIZER or WINTERIZER-WEEDER.

Cindy Grieve made use of her slave,Brian Dalton, to carry her to all her classes. All is fair in slave trade! We all welcome our new grade 9's and hope they realize the advantages of going to our school. Among . other things, having lockers with keys either helps you to always keep track of where your keys are, or get you used to being locked out of things. I'll bet you that former Cartwright students lose their car keys a lot less then former pupils from other schools. Also, contrary to other larger schools, our halls are extremely short if not non- existant, developing an appreciation for walking on the proper side, and keeping your body off the floor. You see, school can be fine if we all hang onto our keys and watch where we walk. Looking around me, I can see that everyone seems to be back in the old grooves of school life once again. It's hard to believe that we left at all, except for some dark- 'Grade 9's initiated, sold by Auction er sun-tans. Things are con- tinuing on as usual. The guys are out in the football field killing each other and trying to look like candidat- es for a "Tide" commer- cial. If someone asked if you would sell him your dirty, ripped-up shirt for $65.00 would you sell it? 1 one up! Our Outer's club is off to a good start this year. Last 'week they held a swimming and canoeing test in prepara- tion for the canoe trip in Algonquin Park, scheduled for October 1st weekend. Also planned is a school trip to Ottawa in October. The only real proof that this is a new school year, is that no one has fallen down the stairs yet. Last year I believe we started a little earlier in that category, but we blame it on the stairs instead of the shoes anyway. Homework has started all ready. Isn't that depress- ing? Boy, before you know it, we'll all have learned something. What's this? Pens? Pencils? Paper? Do you mean we have to 'take notes"? Gasp! This could be serious.
