authorized aa aeoand clasa matt poet office dopt ottawa itfembar of the canadian weekly newspapers aaa and tta ontario quebec division of ttie owjta the editors column respect our public park it has been drawn to our attention that young sters and juveniles have been wrecking valuable prop erty and defacing the grandstand at georgetown park and we write these lines to point out the folly of such actions and the great disservice being rendered to one of the towns finest natural assets georgetown has a park to be proud of a good track a lovely setting with gbod ball diamonds shade trees the armouries the fall fair pylon and the grandstand and judging stand these latter two are not exactly things of beauty bemg rather badly in need of paint but they are stur dily constructed and had been put in good shape by the town men in readiness for the fair next month however much of this work has been nullified by the andalism mentioned above an examination on monday levealed specifically that several boards had been deliberately pulled from the bottom of the judging platform and two or three railing supports re moved inside the building a few broken bottleg were m evidence and although the floor wae reasonably clean at the time we are told that on frequent occasions the sanitary facilities elsewhere have been ignored in fa vour of this more convenient spot th grandstand has also had its share of damage and boards have been loosened and pulled off and a couple of doorways at the back of the stand pulled off their hinges chalk writing and pictures are also liber ally plastered on the back wall many of them not fit to mention it is extremely discouraging for the men who had put the park m shape for th fair to find their work has to be done over and it is indirectly a loss to the town for the time spent on this means that other things wi have to be neglected we make a plea to those who read this to be more careful and to refrain from wilfully damaging public property parents can help by reminding their young sters tha the park is theirs to enjoy not destroy and that they should not do there what theywould not do at home waste cans would help while on the subject of cleaning up the park we wonder at the same time if something could not be done about cleaning up the downtown streets the lit ter of papers and garbage which remains on main st all day sunday is an eyesore to resident and visitor ahk several mornings weekly the town men sweep the streets clean but they cannot be expected to do this job on sunday morning too much of the trouble is caused bv the lack of any type of waste can on the street and if these were provided at strategic points and educational campaign launched we think improve ments would be noted how about the town or the laore club womens institute or some other public spirited organization providing waste containers they would have to be solidly constructed of the type used in cities a cleaner main street would be a great asset f georgetown school examesults good the middle school examination results which appeared in last weeks herald reflected much credit on the teaching staff at georgetown high school and on the students themselves for an outstanding record in 152 subjects written by 34 students there were only nine failures these being divided among three students noteworthy particularly are the results attained by douglas latimer who topped his class with ten firsts and douglas alexander who followed closely behind with six firsts and four seconds both boys also wrote upper school zoology and got secbnd class hon ours in that douglas latimer has the distinction of heading his class in his complete four years of high school and we predict that he and others of the fourth form class are heading for brilliant futures as they con tinue their education the ex is back for the first time since 1941 the canadian nat ional exhibition m toronto is on again and george- towners as alwayshave been flocking down to see can adas greatest show being threeparts scotch the edi tor is waiting until press day on friday to visit the how when he is a guest of the exhibition for dinner hid has several free attractions

wonder if well find one of ken mcmillans nags in it now reminiscences of ghs by howard f oram the upper school examination re sults appearing in the newspapera prompted me to get out some of my old school records and i located the results of the old form 1 or commer cial examination in the county at halton in 1407 the subjects were reading drawing geography botany and writing with bookkeepingi and commercial transactions at qhb an of these subjects except reading were taught by mr mclaughlin and i can think oi no one more capable for these particular subjects than he for drawing and botany he was par ticularly good miss hutt taught reading and taught it remarkably well the results at georgetown were v c barber j p belisle honors h a bracken j a clark c p cross w j graham j g hender bon
