Miss Jean Cun- ningham, Barbara Murdoch and Steven Sisson welcomed the guests as they arrived. The guests were served a delicious tumkey banquet by the mnem- bers of Trinity Evening Auxil- iary. Ted Colweih thanked the ladies of the Auxiiiary for the enjoyabie meal on hehaîf of those present and Mms. Stan McMurter replied for the la- dies. The actual Commencement Exercises began at 8:30 in the High School Auditorium. Prin- cipal L. W. Dippeil acted as chaimman for the evening. In his opening emarks Mm. Dippeli congratuhated the graduates and remarked that aithough their average'of 89.4 passes was lowepr than Bowmanvilie's usuai standard of 90 % it was stili 1.5 % highem than the average of the province.

Enables More Courses It is hoped that the wider variety of courses which these speciai ciassrooms wili make possible wili reduce the nuni- ber of students who drop out of school between grades IX and XIII. Aiso by taking cour- ses suited to their abilities they wili be better able to serve their communities, Mm. Reynolds said. Presentation of Table When the varlous diplomas and special awards had been presented, Ivan Wooliey, on behalf of the graduating ciass, pmesented the school with a table for use in the auditorium. The Valedictory address was given by Joan Bartlett. At the conclusion of hem fine address which appears elsewhere in this issue, Miss Bartlett received a lovely floral bouquet from the student body and another from Mrs. J. H.

'rhe majority at first said fire, because if it did strike ;t would cripple the farrn busi- ness. However, the repeated occurrence of sickness made medical and hospital benefits of high importance. Automo- bile insurance is a must for al who drive and owners should avail themselves of much higher coverage at very little extra cost. Ahl thought life assurance Iwas necess.-ry. especîally to young familles where the breadwinner's ie and health were so very important. AIl were sure we did not carry adequate insurance. A few were afraid of cost, think- ing partial coverage was bet- ter than none. Chairman Glen Larmer ex- pressed thanks to our vîsitors and asked the recreationr com- mittee to take over, which we ahl enjoyed.
