improving the calendar by deng wrlggleaworth 1 wonder how many of us know that there is s word calendar as sociation which is solely dedicated to the introduction of a world cal endar which will be a vast improve ment upon the present system among the improvements are the following the present calendar has unequal quarters 00 01 and 02 days while the world calendar has equal quarters 01 days each the present calendar has months of irregular length while the world calendar months rim in a regular rhythmatic pattern 31 30 30 31 30 30 etc 1 tie present calendar months vary from 24 to 27 business days while che world calendar months run 26 business days each the present calendar has grass hopping dates never twice in succession on the same week days while the world calendar has days and dates always agreeing from year to year since four quarters of 01 davs each add up to only 364 days every year there is a worldsday dedicated to goodwill cocperation and peace this comes on the day after the 80th of december alan each leap year thcro is a leap year day dedicated also to goodwill cooperation and peace it falls on the day after the 30th of june both these days arc civic world holidays i wonder how many of us would like our birth days on the same day or christmas always on a monday or labour day always monday the 4th of septem ber or easter always on a sunday april the uth this certainly gives us all food for thought if this new calendar is adapted throughout the world it will bo much more efficient than out3 present ralenrtnr system what last years specials are doing pat

some person has done a worthy thing for this ichonl he or she will receive due mention here there fore this column is the representa tive of justice in our school paper my first beef is against the stud ent not all jut a few of the noonhour students vou have re ceived permission to use the double room as your eating establishment during noon hours yet one rainy day several unthinking students with muddy boots left their muddy sig natures in said room you do not act in such manner at home we hoe unci therefore should not ut school if you do not appreciate what la being done for you by the school board look around and with those who appreciate it enjoy it by using common sense and judgment in my opening gxiragraph i sto- ted 1 also gave out praise well id like to praise the teachers for put ting up with the initiation activi ties and the party including init iation especially mrs hess who opened her ltome economics room to the student council to keep the pop cool in the refrigerator and the sandwiches in one place in addi tion she allowed itudcnta to use her room to prepare the sandwiches and cookie fors the party thany you mrs hess some students arc complaining about the rule which prohibits any one from cntciing the school until 1 pm at noon however this should affect the town students very little because surely by the time one is in high school one can judge how long it takes to walk to school and gauge the time accordingly to arrive between one and onefif teen in rain or cold weather this is only common sense students who come by bus to school have the pri vilege of staying within the school all noon hour if they wish but once out may not come back in until one oclock board rules demand noon hour supervision of students and the staft has fqund 99 per cent of th students have cooperated wil lingly- and courteously editorial dob tucther another year oi 3 rs and ft has rolled around with oils new season has come some improvement these being chiefly a new addition to the cus tie and s newly reoguntted high school newspaper the school is being completely reocgunlted as is high tulei thlc uutson many new facs are to be seen on our high tules still

the paper all tills would bo only theory if it were not for mr hlcin of the herald his slendld cooperation and donation of this space also not to be forgotten is our long sultering mr armstrong who along with commercial spec ialists deciphers our writing and traikforms it into typing also this year miss parkinson and principal j i lambert have agreed to help us witli advice end cooperation tto make our undertaking uorth while with all these improvements wc in tend to make this paper something ofwhich chs students can be proud student council plans active 5455 season this year the student council was form at immediately after thtr open ing of the term and efficiently wc hope huidlcd it first major student activity the annusl initiation par ly it is the aim of the council this year to make the best possible use of its facilities and to try to fully represent the students of gils the council is larger than lost year as there are 0 classes now the largest number yet at chs two
