PAGE TWO Prose THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1931 Rhumba and All Giddy Glides Banned By Dancing Maestri New York.--The Rhumba of Cuba fame; the fox trot, rapid tango and other giddy glides were ordered banished from ball- rooms by dancing masters from many states in convention here, In their place, a new four-four rhythm, described as a "dance of decorum," was evolved after spir- ited discussion which had en- grossed 150 dance exponents for a week. The new dance tempo, its back- ers explained, is faster than the waltz. It somewhat resembles the tango and consists of five movements, each of which was worked out by a different person, and, after much fitting and cut- tin,, inserted in the pattern which song-and-dance writers will be ex- pected to follow in the coming society season. . / : re Become a Pretzeleer 8] There's a mew order--the Order of Pretzeleers.

ORMISTON and Chronicle.--Teleph Leaving to go to her home in Toronto on Thursday afternoon last, after a visit with the Cam- eron family at Port Whitby, Miss Isabelle Scott, fifteen-year- old daughter of Mr, and Mrs, W. A. Scott, former well known residents of Whitby, has not been heard from"since, and her P are dingly anxious about her. They have enlisted the aid of friends and the police in locating her. The missing girl, who is well known in Whitby, after a visit with Mr, and Mrs. Cameron at Port Whitby, left Thursday af- ternoon at 3.30 by Grey Coach Lines bus for her home at 3 Normanna Avenue, Toronto. The bus driver states that he remembers the girl getting on the bus but does not recall when or where she left. The parents FORMER WHITBY GIRL REPORTED MISSING - LEFT HERE WEEK AGO did not become anxious about her because of the fact that when she did not return on Thursday as intended they thought that she had decided to remain in Whitby a few days longer. However, as the girl remained absent, her parents wrote to the Camerons at Whit- by, only to learn that she had left for their home on Thursday last. Isabelle Scott is a tall girl, 15 years of age, and any informa- tion concerning her will be most gratefully received by her par- ents, Mr. and Mrs. Scott at telephone Melrose 4529, Toron- to, or at the Gazette and Chron- icle office, Whitby. Mr. and Mrs. Scott are well known here, as Mr. Scott was a former member of the Ontario Hospital staff for some time, Dr. Robert B. McClure, F.R.C. S., and Mrs. McClure, who have been home on furlough from Fermosa, for a year, left Whitby this week, and on Sept. 26th will sail for China to resume their former work in the Honan Mis- sion. Their many Whitby friends, who regret thelr depar- ture from the town, wish for | them a sdfe journey and Godspeed in their work. Mrs, McClure is a Whitby girl, formerly Miss Amy Hislop. | "The New Outlook," official { organ of the United Ch'irch of | Canada, in a recent issue has the folowing reference. to tha re. turn of Dr. McClure to China: "Dr. Robert B.

PUPILS OF HIGH SCHOOL URGED TO EMBRACE WORK Principal and Trustees Gave Addresses at the Opening When the High School opened on Tuesday morning for the new term, the Assembly Hall was filled to the doors. Indications were that the registration this year will be the largest in the school's history. It will probably be the end of the week before the total enrolment is known. On the platform in the Assem- bly Hall for the opening exercises were Principal Arthur Archibald, Dr, C. F. McGillivray, secretary of the Board of Education, and Trus- tees George A. Ross and G. M. Goodfellow. The chairman of the Board, Dr. H, Bascom, sent through the secretary his regret at being unable to be present. In a brief address Principal Archibald told old and new pupils that they were assembeled in one of the oldest secondary schools In the province, and one from which had gone forth many who had dis- tinguished themselves in all parts of the world. The opportunity to tollow their example was to- day held out to every pupil in the school. Hard work, diligent stu- dy, and the best use of the facili- ties provided for a good educa- tion, were some of the things de- manded of those who would suc- ceed. Mr. Archibfld asked the pupils to be careful of the proper. ty of others, more particularly of property owned by the school. Destruction of either could not be tolerated. He pointed out that in this time of depression it had meant a great sacrifice on the part of many parents to send their children to school. There was therefore more reason for taking care of the educational equipment provided, and for an expression of appreciation on the part of pupils by embracing the opportunities given them to se- cure a good education. The prin- cipal referred to the fmportant announcement made recently by the Department of Education to the effect that pupil candidates | who receive 66 per cent and over in the various subjects of the Middle Schoolg, and are recom- mended by the certificate of the teacher, will be exempted from writing on the departmental ex- aminations. Here was an oppor- tunity, Mr, Archibald stressed, for all middle school pupils by working hard to obtain the 66 per cent. and over and thereby avoid the worry and strain of depart- mental examinations. Mr, Archi- bald made it very plain, however, that the teachers would not grant the marks required to pass with- out writing unless they were earned. : ! In closing, the priffcipal ex- pressed the hope that every pupil would enter upon his or her stu- dies with a determination to {achieve success, and to 'maintain the fine reputation of the school. Appropriate remarks were made by Dr. McGillivray, who hag been identified with the Board of Education for over 40 years and has attended 40 High School openings; Trustee George A. Ross, a member of and former chairman of the Property Com- mittee, and Trustee G. M. Good- fellow, chairman of the School Management Committee. The opportunities for obtaining wis- dom and understanding, and for | accomplishing something tangible | in such important realms of sci- | ence, art and religion, were stress- ed by the speakers, CONFERENCE OF CHURCH LEADERS OPENS IN WHITBY In conference at the On- tario Ladies' College today are prominent men of the United.
