reply If you this reply worthy of you have permission to use as you see fit As children wend their way daily to school parents are deep grateful for all efforts by teachers in their childrens behalf The greatest need day by day In the eyes of parents is that their children will have teach ers with cheerful personalities Often a child will come home and remark Teach er is in a good mood today An other day when asked how school is going will come the Is nothing but old Parents know full well that there are day at school as in the home when everything seems to go wrong A teachers patience and forbearance ore quite often taxed to the break ing point A cheerful person ality maintained even under the most adverse conditions will in the end best In Over an extender period of time teacher will demand by her own personality the co operation obedience and integ rity of her pupil SIii these days when the cost Of Hying is so high teachers must cooperate with parents in keeping the cost of

foot the bill This correspondent can quote an when his child came home the opening of school with a lengthy list of books that must be purchased One book op that list costing over was purchased and was never mud during the entire school term That same text is now obsolete and might as well be thrown in the garbage Parents on the whole do not object to punishment cither cor poral or any other form admin istered to their children if their children deserve punishment All we ask is that care bo ex ercised In verifying beyond a doubt exactly who should be punished Teachers and parents are mutually not Infallible No thing defeats a childs respect for cither teacher or parent more completely than to receive undeserving punishment If punishment must be admin istered let it be done quickly without prolonging the childs fear of what Is going to happen to him fear of pend ing punishment can destroy a childs appetite and undermine his health to a degree that may retard scholastic progress expect Die teachers of their children to provide In school an atmosphere of cheer ful and happiness where child can work and piny with other children and know no of injustice or unfairness Wo as

to Mayor Vale Before the option had been taken the property committee of council hod planned to sell the property as individual building lots sustained yield is started ho said He decried the shameful lack of proper forestry water and wildlife practices In On- J Taylor of the Kilbour En gineering company explained the survey of Fairy Lake and its purposes The town engineer told us the background of Fairy Lake As I understand it there is a wide public approval to make the lake beauty spot and recreation area Through the survey we can estimate the quantities of silt on the bottom of lake and record the depth of water A purpose in view is to remove the silt and build up an entrance or strip of grass on the cast bank next to the railway tracks The lake would be narrowed and deepened causing increased water velocity which would keep the lake clean from algae and undesirable plant growth he said In Aurora three to five acres of nice water with a good flow now exist We will carry out a survey on the ground and see what effect a dam would have to deepen water to a useful depth for recreation purposes Mr Taylor said Frank Newmarket who is interested in the fate of Fairy Lake suggested raising the level of the dam I am not in favor of decreasing the area of the lake he said One of the first things we should do is to contact all the Interested parties before we do anything said Mr Taylor One farmer said that Fairy Lake level never was so high Contrary to statements by old timers that the old dam was higher than the present one he said the river level on his farm south of Fairy Lake never was higher Dr VanNostrand a farm own er near said that after all Newmarket and Aurora could do little about the volume of water in their rivers We farmers around Creek are the custodians of the water which supplies your Fairy Lake and your pond In Aurora he said He said that conservation practices in Whitchurch would have much to do with water levels in the watershed Local residents interested In a Fairy Lake cleanup attending the banquet were impressed by the interest in the authority Several said there Is hope for Fairy Lake yet Night Classes Regisbtttfon At High School NextTue
