Editor: Robert Corbett, phone 2589 * Phone 703, All Departmafs Entertainment Features Enliven School 'At Home' Work of Whitby High School students was on exhibit last night to parents and friends. The form .of the presenta- tion was such as to make the evening entertaining and in- structive. Events started off with a display of girls' folk dancing in which seven students showed how dancing can 'be part of the physical education q agenda. While the boys gave their. physical exhibition a running commentary via loud-speaker én what they were doing kept the crowd informed. This dis- play was really outstanding with many boys taking part, Four of the best gymnasts, dressed in clownish costumes, burlesqued acts and kept the crowd in stitches but they also 'did some very wonderful gym stunts which brought continuous rounds of applause from the audience. These boys were Sandy McLeod, John Graham, Norman Swenton, and George Winram. Then the visitors adjourned to the assembly hall where a fashion show was staged with Margaret Crumb as commentator. Fifteen girls took part, but each had made her own costume jn her Home Economics class. (Photos of some of the en- sembles will appear in Monday's issue). Girls taking part were Jackie Gordon, Kay Willett, Joyce Simpson, Norma Harris, Marian Archibald, Phyllis Mowbray, Doro- thy Bales, Susan Lott, Marilyn Thorndyke, Eleanor Gledhill, Ca. therine Gledhill, Carolyn Moorby, Dorothy Senko, Maebelle Rowley and Betty Jean Lunney.

Times Do Change Words cannot readily describe the excellence of the "Open House" which was presented last night at the High It was not merely a display of the student's work. Nor was it just entertainment for the scores of parents and friends who attended. Added all up, it impressed one as something offered to the public as a tangible proof that On- tario's educational system is today advancing and preparing far more than it ever has in Even fifteen years ago, the best high schools and col- legiates did not offer the training which Whitby children are receiving today.

First was that it was under their ministry that her own father be- came converted and joined the Salvation Army, The second was recently recalled in a newspaper article. The world~ famous tenor Enrico Caruso was staying at the Arlington Hotel in Cobourg about 1908 as a guest of the proprietor's wife, Madame Al- bertini, herself a famous singer. While Caruso was taking his ease one night on the spacious veran. dah of the hotel, the then-captain and Mrs: Arthur Smith came along with their group and proceeded to hold a meeting in front of the hotel. As the strains a beautiful gospel sonz reached Caruso's ears he was moved to go to the veran- dah rail and raise his powerful voice in song. Not knowing who he was, but recogniing his magnificent musical talent, the Srhiths invited him gto join their group and lead them in a hymn. This he did. Though the story has been retold and altered down through the years, these are the essential facts, vouched for by Mrs. Brigadier Smith, the only liv. ing member of the Salvation Army which Caru® sang on the streets of Cobourg.
