Nlewtonvillle A miscellaneous Bridal Shower was held on Sunday afternoon, March 4 in our Church Hall, in honor of Miss Evelyn Stacey.

Our congratulations to Miss Silvia Ruegger, of this area, who was the winner in the Canadian Junior Girls' Cross- Country Running in Toronto recently.

Attending the Gideon dinner at Solina, Friday evening were Mr. and Mrs. Melville Jones, Mrs. Mary Vinkle, Rev. and Mrs. A. Tizzard, and Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Boughen. Mr. Jim Adams spent the weekend with Mr. and Mrs. Gerry Adams, in Toronto a week ago. Local people among those attending the "Wilderness Family" show. at the Capitol Theater, Port Hope on Friday evenîng included Mr. and Mrs. Roy Tompkins and famiiy, Mrs. Lena Clysdale, Mrs. Irene Burley, Mr. Phil Gil- mer, son, Ken, daughter Kim and friend Rosalie Facca and Mrs. V. Gilmer. On Saturday evening, Mrs. Bea Jones and Mrs. CM. Jones attended a birthday party in honor of Bea's cousin, Mrs. Ethel Kelly at the "Extendicare Area" of Peter- borough Civic Hospital. About fifty friends and relatives enjoyed a social afternoon in honor of Mrs. Kelly's 9th birthday. One day a student stormed into my officeand said, "I quit." This young man was obviously angry and upset. He put his scbool books on my coun- ter and as he started to walk out the door I said, "do you have time to tel me why you are quitting? He said, "gnot really", but nonetheless he responded to my invitation to sit down. It seems that this young man had had a disagreement witb one of bis teachers. There was some question over homework he was supposed to have done and when the teacher asked him about it there bad been some words between tbem. In anger the young man bad stomped out of the room, vowing neyer to return. Wbile the situation looked- ex- tremely important to the student at the time, it of -course, seems relatively unimportant to him now. The student's reaction of quitting scbool was out of ahl proportion to the problem and of course in retrospect be -can't really under- stand why be reacted s0 extremely. The fact is; however that we ail go to extremes at times. There are ahl kinds of reasons for this to bappen. Tbings like fatique, illness, worry, tensions, fear and even love can all upset us enough thatwben some lit- tde thing bappens we may "blow up. " The student in this situation had been working evenings for over a week. He was painly exhausted and when the teacher questioned bis homework, it was just too much. People do get angry at times. People do slam doors, yell or stomp away. People of ail ages do this,,but when that person is of school age, dare we let them ruin their life by their anger? Sometimes when students get angry it may be just Saturday afternoon visitors with Mrs. W. Gilmer included Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Gil- mer, Islington and Mr. and Mrs. Phil Gilmer. Another successful Teenage Dance wasc held in our Community- Hall, Saturday evening, with over 100 in attendance of various ages. Inez Boughen was in charge at the door, while Lena Clysdale, Jean and Jack Ogden helped with the sale of potato chips. Highlight of the evening was a little celebration in honor of Wallace Boughen's birthday with the sînging of "Sweet Sixteen" and an attractive birthday cake, made by Carolyn and Kim Gilmer, enjoyed by as many as possible! Our best wishes to Wallace as well as to others of the "Birthday Gang" namely: Douglas Redknap, of Oshawa, Grace Ton of Newcastle, Edith Johnston of Toronto. Mr. Wm. Stapleton, Bow- manville and John Ton, Port Hope. Janet Paeden and Jim Adams were the Greeters at our Church door, Sunday morning and the theme of Rev. Tizzard's sermon was "Peter - One of the Twelve". The Choir's selection was "The Old Rugged Cross",.

They have to be told in no uncertain words to behave properly and if they do not, then they will have to suffer the consequences. However; if the bad mood is brought on by circumstances not totally un- der their control, it may really be a type of appeal for help.. Angry people have a bad habit of cornering tbemselves. They say tbings or do things whicb they wouldn't normally say or do and they find it next to impossible to recover. -A student who storms out of a class saying be's going to quit, bas cornered bimself. He bas told the world, loud and clear what be is going to do. It's very bard to back down after one bas done sometbing like that. It's not just the fact that it's bard to back down, the person may bave insulted someone or said ru de things and bow can that problem bte overcome? These problems are solved by someone taking the time to say, "hold on a minute, sit down and let's take a look at this situation." A littie cooling off time, a littie understanding, a big look at the consequences ahead if this action continues, and support to face the problemn in a manly way and deal witb it sensibly go a long way. The student wbo came into my of- fice that day and said that he was quitting, didn't q uit. We managed to get everything back on a positive direction. It involved our taîking, a meeting witb bis teacher and a bard look at what, bad to change so it wouldn't bappen again. It would have been so easy to have let that fellow quit school. He had cornered bimself, but recognizing that fact, we gave him an out, so he didn't ruin bis future. I think be learned from it. p.m. Bible Study in Church Hall.

The second game was worse, the Toros iosing, to Cobourg, a team they just can't seem to beat. Once again David Waldie haunted the Toros as he had one goal and three assists for four points on the five goals. NOTES - The weekend play was sad after a very successful span in which the Toros averaged about 30 shots on goal per game, went four games without a ioss before losing to Cobourg. They have been playing good, funda- mental exciting hockey, and hopefully the team can put it all together before the up- coming Collingwood Tourney. H7oper 'S Je vwellers 29 King St. E.
