representa- tie from the bell telephone company here in condensed form is some of the material she presented when you are speaking on the telephone do you wonder it you are saying just the right thing do you find yourself disturbing others because you have not remembered to jot down a number in a convenient place or you have neglected to dial in the proper manner if you think any of tnese questions at any time take note of the following when dialing a number al ways use the index finger bring it around the dial until it touches the silver rest and let the dial return by itself make sure the number you are about to dial is correct noth ing is more annoying than to receive a call from an ooops im sorry i must have the wrong number person be sure to write the most frequent ly used numbersin a convenient place if you are not certain of a number use a directory thats what its published for dont trust your memory when answering a business phone employ a phrase such as smith sons miss jones so the caller will know what com pany he has contacted and to whom he is speaking try to develop a system bv which you will always know where your employer is and when he can be expected to re turn if you must leave the phone any length of time excuse your self and give the reason for your absence throughout the conversation use a pleasant tone of voice even if youre upset or depressed this will always win you friends and influence superiors re member you are the voice of your company when the call has been com pleted sign off with a cheery goodbye and always wait un til your caller has hung up be fore returning your phone to the cradle it is wise for you or your boss to make the calls that you or he need to make never depend upon another person to make your calls for you when you can make them yourself if you are asked to make a call make certain that you have all the information straight in your mind when you receive a call make sure that you have copied all the required informa tion on a pad that should be kept beside the phone at- all times when you receive a call never let the phone ring more than two times drop any work you are doing or eexuse your self from conferring with others and answer the call at once when you are phoning allow the phone to ring several times before hanging up editorial racial equality what is it that makes the white people begin to move out of a community when negroes mine in what is it that holds back the negro and makes him an outcast even though he is no longer in slavery and when a school is desegregated what makes white parents take their children out could it be blind prejudice or is it just that negroes are black and we are white after all ou or i rmoht have been born with black skin black and white were meant to harmonize like the keys of a piano or look at this news print the white part makes up the substance of the paper but what good would it be without the black letters you are reading white people often feel the negroes are a lazy unintelligent race and perhaps they are some of them but it is factual that in even crowd there is good and bad what if we the upperclass white society were judged solely by men such as president kennedys assassin would people accept us many people say i believe wholeheartedly in integra tion yet it is thesame ones who avoid living in mixed neighbourhoods or instinctively grasp their childs hand a little tighter when walking through a negro section let us imagine the negro race had become the dominat ing racial group you are a oung white boy aspiring to be a scientist mother is a cleaning woman father is unemployed education in this iilthy white slum area is poor or noneistant and money does not grow on trees you wonder how it would feel to be respected as an individual and not to have little children cry and point out the white man but life is a deadend you will come and go without leaving a mark but who will care of course this is not the case the white people are the dominating ones but give it thought for someday things may not be so convenient and we the white people may be begging for a decent chance to survive then and only then will we realize what the negro race suffers and the need for racial equality something to think about by alfred campbell interviewing mr smith beth paisley 10b mr smith attended a school in toronto until grade 13 from there he went directly to the university of toronto where he spent four years however he hadnt yet decided what he want ed to be before making up his mind he was determined to see something of life he travelled across the country to western canada and then down the states working as he went feeling that he would like more education mr smith went to london england where he studied for a year returning to canada he took up the teach ing profession when asked why open house york county hospital addition the board of directors of york county hospital extend a cordial invitation to attend the open house and inspection of the new east wing addition wed march 25 from 330 to 530 pm and 7 pm to 9 pm because of the limited parkin space you are invited to make use of a special bus service to and from the plaza parking lot davis drive and yonce st newmarket everybody talks about study but who does anything about lt wisdom is the principal thing a wise man once said therefore get wisdom and with all thy getting get under standing these are a few suggestions on how to study or to use a better term how to learn 1 learn for a lifetime you may study for an exam to morrow and do pretty well at it too then forget what you studied forever afterward that jolly little man who pulls the drawers in and out in your mind takes his tip from you and whatever you say a day a week a month a year a life time goes 2 try to see your sub ject asa whole not iust as parts that are somehow or somewhat related youll see better and faster where youre going not only that youll see where you are now and thats important and youll be less apt to be like the man who couldnt see the woods for the trees 3 look for relation ships not only within the sub ject itself but with other sub jects they are there you know and if you want it that way each course can be a voy age of discovery for you 4 keep a separate note book for each subject it lends dignity to the course helps keep your notes integrat ed properly and gives a big healthy boost to your own morale 5 keep a dictionary alongside you and use it you cant have a language without words and you cant know the language without knowing the words and to know the words you must have a dictionary 6 learn the vocabu lary every subject has its own vocabulary therefore if you would go places learn that specialized vocabulary as soon as you can and learn it well it will stand you in good stead when you need it he said he felt it to be an honest occupation and selected english because to him it was the most interesting subject to teach en larging on this he went on to say that language and literature are not necessarily the most important things in the world but they bring us close to the important things such as the mystery which we call human character why are we here why are we what we are why do we all have separate exist ences mysteries arent things that can be solved but what can and ought to come to a greater and greater realization of the presence of the unknown mr smith began his teaching career at gravenhurst where he spent four years before coming to stouffville this is his third and last year at stouffville he has enjoyed teaching here but feels he would like to go back to university of toronto and work on his master of arts for mr smith this will involve a teaching fellowship he will give three hours of lectures a week attend other lectures and mark innumerable essays the teaching of english in mr smiths opinion allows for more flexibility in planning your course set rules are fine but tend to make the subject mono tonous mr smith likes to pre sent his subject in his own way learning should not become pro saic reading is hard work talking is hard work thinking is hard work but as mr smith says any hard work is reward ing mr smith will be greatly mi- sed and his absence felt bv all but we wish him good luck in the future 7 read ideas not words those hentracks on the page dont mean a thing it is the ideas they convey that move worlds look through the words and lay hold of the ideas behind them 8 read by phrases not by lines dont be caught by the marks a printer makes on a page its that idea however complex or compound that is ready to leap from the authors mind to yours that is really go ing to count in your education 9 try to capture the major thought if the au thor is a good writer he will make sure that there is one sentence at least within each paragraph that will convey his most important idea after you have found that idea under line it if the book belongs to you of course so you will have no trouble finding it again mark it intelligently 10 ask the author ques tions these are not to throw doubt on the authors assertions but to understand clearly what he is driving at ask the ques tions for your own information such as why when where how who what and so on 11 make a brief sum mary of the days les son the boiling down will have a unifying and cohering effect that will help to fix it in your mind 12 rephrase the mate rial in your own words in either oral or written speech you may do this a paragraph at a time or in larger subdivis ions 13 put the book down and go over the whole lesson in your mind here the vacancies will show up most clearly and you will rea lize what specific areas need the most strengthening 14 outline each days material this wilt help you see the material as a whole and give you a grasp of the relative imoortance of all its parts 35 get a study buddy the weakness of one would be counteracted by the strength of the other and both would sur vive the boy who eatsjjd eng lish will always be giaa for a helping hand from a science shark and vice versa 16 finally i would say be interested not only in the subject or in that particular area of the subject that comes easy but in every thing just as our bodies are fear fully and wonderfully made as the scripture says so with the universe and all other things nothing should fall outside the orbit of fascinated investigation of the fellow or girl who really wants to learn somewhere up ahead all lines meet it is our privilege to follow them to ob serve their relationships and to see them at last converge meantime we can bless the glorious god who has so en- dowed us that we can exult in the endeavor moody monthly end how true this last statement is as a last and final word re member that it is never too late to pick up the lost strings and bind the tic with god eree again he will lead and guide us through everything in our life including our studies if only we will ask it of him he will freely give nothing is too great or too small for god for every one that asketh reccivcth and he that sccketh flndeth and to him that knock- cth it shall be

this article examination time is here linda dafoe 9b every time that you tune in your radio do you hear the fa miliar line are you suffering from etp exam time panic does it worry you lets face it kids exams are once again upon us and no amount of wailing moaning o beseech ing is going to change the situa tion there is only one thing that you can do about them and i guess you have heard enough about that already to many people exams have many different meanings to the adventurous they are excit ing and you must admit that the adventure of sitting for an hour and a half watching others scribble down answers that you dont know is quite exciting exams are new worlds to con quer for the ambitious un known worlds to most of us and they invite the intelligent person to express what he re ally feels without the embarass- ment of appearing showoffy to me exams are another of lifes trials with which you must put up and while you are at it you may as well do a good job the actual writing of the exam is not nearly so interest ing as the atmosphere surround ing it the tenseness and frigid- ness enclosing the corridors and closed classroom doors excites me just watching the reac tions of people is delightful the strong silent ones who know what the score is the nervous pacing handclasping individuals who knows that he should have spent the time with his books instead of his girl and the forced highpitched gig gles and hlarity which is the worst of all whatever part of the follow ing days that you like or dis like the most bear in mind that life has its ups and downs and exams are just another of those downs fashion models cornell university offered a certificate in journalism in the year 187579 before the days of journalism schools rudeness is a weak mans im itation of
