This is the new Se- cord School, situated on Secord av- enue, 250 yards outside of the city boundaries-and within two minutes’ walk of the Danforth car line. Al- though it is a county school, it in many respects out-rivals some of the best schools in the city. , Beside all the modern equipment inthe way of medical rooms, teachers’ dining and rest rooms, etc., there is a full- sized swimming pool, a gymnasium and a girls’ playroom. The school is a splendid barre ag of community enterprise. Beg iias Yoel Hedey OW meiktRe a Hy TTT - oc . A SHREWD FINANCIER (Typographical Journal).

Dr. Cohn Waugh, Chief Inspector of Schools for Ontario, address-) ed a large gathering, which over- | flowed the hall in the basement of} the school, last evening. He con-! gratulated the people of School Sec-! tion No. 26 and their School Board| upon thefe enterprise. He was of the opinion that special considera-| tion should be given to county schools on the borders of cities, and advocated the recognition of what he called ‘‘city zones.” Mrs. (Canon) Plumptre, in a brief address, said that if the child was the heart of the home, the school should be the heart of the community. She urged the people to regard the schoo] as a community centre. Mr. Andrew Grant, Chairman of the School Board, presided over the meeting. Among those who spoke were: W. H. Bessey, Secretary-Treds- urer of the Board; Inspector §W Campbell and Reeve Miller. +9 he program for the evening: in- under the direction of Miss D.

Such com- plaints us chicken-pox, measles and whooping cough are constantly go- ing the rounds ‘here. The children bring the disease home to other mem- bers of the family of all kinds is much more prevalent in families rep- resented in the schools. One appar- ent reason for the prevalence of meas- les is that children are kept out of school only. as long as the rash stays on their faces and are then hurried to school at the stage when the infection is the most likely to be com- municated to others. This is a mat- ter that should be looked into. Surely the local Board of Health has means at its disposal of remedying or at leastly greatly improving this con- dition. Certainly it does not exist to the same extent in the cities and in some other towns. Walkerton has a local Board of Health and a lot of people would certainly be glad to see them take active measures to prevent the constant spread of disease throughout the town through the a- gency of the schools. A Dangerous Job— Walkerton Times—Mr. W. J. No- lan, a car-checker of London, was in Walkerton on Wednesday soliciting alms for an artificial limb to replace the left arm he lost near the elbow as the result of blood-poison develop- ing from a wound caused by a piece of stove pipe wire pricking his thumb while putting up pipes eleven months ago. The way the male folks here responded to the appeal showed they sympathized deeply with the man and the-manner in which he got hurt. Putting up stove pipes was always a détestable job, but this is the first time we learned that it was danger- ous as well. Local women should take warning from this unfortunate mishap and not let their bread-win- ners risk themselves too much with the pipes.

It wasn as speedy as the tractor, but it wa was stants and reliable. Then ‘pitting the turnips” was a big job in November that every settler had to look after. The big pit was dug by the barn and covered over with a sloping roof of boards and sod, and here the tur- nips were put in cold storage. Some- times, too, the pits were not made well and would fall in. I have known more than one man to be buried alive in this way in the turnip pits. Using the Poverty Stick “Another task that many a pioneer lad will recall with ‘memories of ach- ing arms, and perhaps of bumped heads, is wielding the flail or pov- erty stick in his father’s barn. In my youth, even where the regular thresh- ing machine was used nearly all the settlers used the flail to thresh their peas, which were an important crop in those days when. plenty of sheep were always kept. At this time of the year the (boys used to put in a good many hours flailing the peas on the floor of the barn. It was a great antidote for November chills. “Then October and November were the months for rounding up the coons. That wasn’t exactly work, for the coon-hunters’ clubs were more for pleasure than profit. At the same time the coons were always a real menace to the farmer’s corn, and be- sides everybody wanted to lay in a good stock of coon oil for the win- ter. This coon ofl, as you know, was greatly in demand as a dressing for the top-boots which every settler wore in those days. “And of course the coming of win- ter made it necessary to get in plenty of logs to keep the old hearth burn- ing. For the big clay fire-place was the heart of the pioneer’s home. When November nights grew chill, there was no hanging over a hot-air register. The great back log flamed on the aundirons and the whole fam- ily, with perhaps a few neighbors. would gather round the cherry blaze, swap yarns, and sing the good old songs. Then perhaps the young folks would clear the room, a fiddler would mount the table, and the ‘call- er-oc”’ would start a strathspey or some of the old square dances where the boots of the lads would clog the floor into a deafening thunder. The wolves might howl in the distance outside, and keen November winds might blow through the forest, but in the log palace of the pioneer the coming of winter was not a dreaded thing.” Predicts Aeroplanes -tives’’ 50c a box, 6 for $2.50, trial size, 25¢,.
