KEN GAMSBY ORONO -- The second meet- ling in the Orono School of the parents of Grades 7 and 8 who are seeking further information) on the new secondary sch-~' educational program was ! recently. About 20 parents were present. They were informed of the science, engineering and trades) % facilities being offered for the students of Durham District High School Area. A panel of three people from Port Hope took part. W. E. Tramner, chairman of the ad- visory committee for Education- al Training of the Durham Dis- trict High School Board, was chairman of the panel. P. J. Bigelow, principal 'of Port Hope New Composite School, was unable to be pres- ent, and Mr. Witherspoon, prin- cipal of Orono High School, sub- stituted. Mr. Arnold, who will be the director of Vocational Training in the New Composite School, was the third member. Before introducing the other members, Mr. Tramner explain- ed that the role of the new Com- posite school would, with its special vocational aspects, play a prominent part in the new pattern of secondary school edu- cation. | Brochures from the Durham} District High School Board} were distributed to the parents| showing the new program as it| |would be applied in the Durham} District High School Area. Mr. Witherspoon, substituting for Mr. Bigelow, used Mr. Bige-| low's prepared text to illustrate how the three streams of edu- cational achievement were di-| vided to suit the needs of all! types of students in the new pro-| gram, | Pe ao Say A oat a Here is an ancient picture | 5 sappol ad wi ; ting 'the small number of parents} of the south side be oe that attended and said he was| Street east -- from Simcoe to not sure that there would be} Celina streets Note the wood further meetings. en sidewalks picture in this IN THE DAYS OF OSHAWA'S WOODEN S$ ™ taken around 1890 near the central downtown area at the Four Corners.

(CP)--The longer a former prisoner is on parole the better chance he has of staying out of jail, says C. A. M. Edwards, regional of- ficer here of the National Par- ole Service. "A short - term parolee is more inclined to go astray." Mr. Edwards, whose office serves an area from Trenton, Ont., to the Quebec border and almost all of Northern Ontario, said that of convicts it has as- sisted, only four per cent have gone back to prison. This compared with the na- tional average of 7.7 per cent in 1960.

WHITMAN' WATERPROOFING CASEIN QUESTION: 1 want to apply a waterprofing preparation to my cellar walls. These have a casein paint coating which doesn't come off with water. How can the paint be removed from the concrete? ANSWER: Ammonia is a sol- vent for casein. Some casein paints can be scrubbed away with a weak solution of ammo- nia and water, others require full strength ammonia. Be sure to rinse off all traces of the ammonia afterwards with plen- ty of clear water. Or the paint can be sanded off. MILDEWED PORCH SHADES QUESTION: Our home has a large front porch, complete- ly sunproofed with green balsa- wod shades. Today, I observed that mildew has formed on parts of the shades. In view of the cost of the purchase would like to take steps to pre- vent these shades from deteri- orating prematurely. What do you recommend? ANSWER: Remove all mil- dew, by scrubbing the affected areas with a stiff brush and a household chlorine bleach solu- tion, allowing to remain on the we surface 4-5 minutes to kill any) spores, then rinsing with plen- ty of clear water and let dry. Mildew developes in the pres- ence of moisture and the wood surface of the blinds is prob- ably not completely sealed all over against the entrance moisture. Apply a mildew- profing preparation, at many housewares and mar- ine supplies dealers, following label directions carefully; or coat all surfaces of the shades with a layer of good quality spar varnish or shellac, thinned half-and-half with denatured alcohol, being sure the surface; is thoroughly clean and free of any trace of soot, grime, wax, etc. PUPPY ODOR IN CONCRETE QUESTION: Our concrete basement floor was covered with linoleum at a time we kept a puppy there. Although we mopped up each time he} wet, upon taking up the lino-| leum we found it had soaked) through into the cement.
