Pupils were encouraged to illustrate their studies by drawings in their note books, he said, and showed one book, a Grade 8 pupil | had beautifully illustrated. | The study of Canada was being stressed this year and in this con- | nection, a film showing life in the newest province, Newfoundland, | was shown. This was a film in color entitled, "Newfoundland Scene'. It showed life in this rug- ged® island where people worked and lived with very little change from their grandfathers' day. It made one feel how very fortunate one was to live in this part of the Dominion. Mrs. Lloyd Courtice, president, presided at the meeting. One min- ute's silence was held at the be- ginning of the meeting in memory of the late Queen Mary.

For two years the couple had been planning to come to Oshawa to join Mrs. Liddell's father and mother, Mr, and Mrs. John Mc- Lachlan and her sister, Mrs. Wil- son .Stauffer. Finally they were able to book passage on an Italian ship, sailing from Southampton to Halifax, which meant travelling almost the length of Great Britain first, and then the long journey by rail from Halifax. Mrs. Liddell was surprised to see so much snow at Quebec, and was delighted to find when she reached Montreal that it had disappeared. In the short space of a week the couple have settled down with Mr. and Mrs. Stauffer; Mr. Liddell has already started on a job and Mrs. Liddell is expecting a call to work at Ajax any day.

The disease may [leave tragic after effects such as tuberculosis, bronchitis, impaired hearing or even mental trouble Immunization against the disease is easily available. | Mrs. | ( To her it is all too good to be true. '"We have been planning to come for so long," she said, "but at home today it's just impossible to save. I was earning three pounds a week, which is about eight dol- lars, and out of that was deducted over three shillings for national health insurance, and pay-as-you- earn income tax. Food prices are pretty high, so that the average working man or woman doesn't have much money left to save." Mrs. Liddell is full of enthusiasm for everything she has seen so far. She is astounded at the local super- market and the display of meat and fresh vegetables and fruit, and she" is. eagerly anticipating a hockey game "on ice". She is not 80 sure about baseball. 'Isn't it like rounders?' she asked. "One thing we shall miss is the football pools", she ventured. "Everybody has a go at the pools each week. Once I won over eight pounds. You try to forecast the results of soccer matches in the English and Scottish leagues, and at 5:30 on a Saturday after- noon when the results of the matches are announced over the radio everybody listens with bated breath. You just don't dare make a sound." i | | | { | | JOIN EASTER Don't Waste the Begin Your Business Training NOW!
