"We are endeavoring to give the pupils of Oakville: and Trafalgar a school second to none," he said. "This high school area board is the keenest of which I have been a member.

I don't consider sports and athletics a waste of time, but we must have a well-rounded life," he maintained. Mr, Dunlop stressed the im- portance of students not drop- ping a subject that does not ap- peal. "There is an epidemic of this that breaks out' frequently in high schools," he pointed out. "I would like to say very seriously" if you don't take every advantage of keeping up with every sub- ject you will be sorry. I speak for, those who have come to me to consult about their course and find that they cannot enter their chosen field until they pick up the subject they have drop- ped.

The Ontario Society for Crip- pled Children are holding their annual Easter Seal drive from March 1st to 25th. In the month of March there is always what is known as 'Donut Week," and the Ontario society is asking the help of the Girl Guides in handling the sale of donuts in their respective localities. This 'does not in any way take the place of the annual cookie day in May, and no funds whatever are retained by the Guides. They ask that the Guides begin canvassing immedi ately, the donuts to be delivered at one time between March 15th and March 20th, specific date to be announced later, A cup is be- ing offered to the company in the province which leads in donut be good citizens." sales in ratio to their member- Hello Homemakers! ing of potatoes daily is a rule in tie five-star plan of good nutri- One serv- tion.
