THE PART THAT OUR SCHOOLS PLAY IN THE DEVELOPING OF G-OOD CITIZENS FOR OUR COUNTRY Velma Williams, XID Schools play a very important part. in the developing of good citizens for our country. Schools prep-are us for the business world and teach us the things to ex- pect from our fellow workers and citizens. First of all the purpose of school is to teach ns to think, so that when we have finally settled in our place in the business world, we will be a4ble to meet our problems with patience and under- standing. It should also help us to enter a university or learn the trade which will be our final training for the business world. Schools also teach us co-operation so that we may work and live togeth- er with other people. Sports help to do this for they teach us the great value of co-operation and thought for our fellow men. In schools we learn of our country, of its developments and of its indus- tries. NVe learn of its trade and commerce, things which good citizens should know. Schools teach us, too, of our government so that we may be able to vote for proper men to help govern our coun,try. We learn of other countries and the difference of leadership and dictatorship, so that we, as good citizens, may h-elfp to keep a free Democratic country. ' In school we learn to spe-ak and write English properly. We also learn other languages, so that we may have a better understanding of the foreign countries. They he-lp us, to-o, if we visit these countries to speak the proper language and thus learn the custo-ms off the other countries too. . We learn in school to appreciate good music and books which is so es- sential in the life of every citizen. All these things and many more, which we learn in scfhool help us to be- come better citizens, and so to live together efficiently and happily in a better country. -f+55-O-?3+- d Mr. Johnson was giving a demonstration on the properties of acids one ay. Now, he said, I am going to drop this fifty-cent piece into this glass of acid. Will it dissolve or not H No, Sir, replied Bud C. Then perhaps you will explain to the class why it won't dissolve, replied the teacher. Because,7' came the answer, if it would you wouldn't drop it in. ...Er-g-ian One day John was chewing gum in school and was sitting with his feet' sprawled out in the aisle. VVhen the teacher saw him, she roared out, John! Take that gum out of your mouth and put your feet in. 9

THE VALUE OF PHYSICAL ED. Gene Forde,XIA I Boys and girls, men and women, should at all times keep themselves in good condition and health by physical training. High .school boys and girls are now reaching the age where they are most likely to be taken by some dis- ease. The teen-age is the time in life where incurable diseases such as Tuber- culosis and Cancer are most likely to come upon a person. Good training means good healtnh, and a person who is in good health usually d-oes well in his studies at school. Since physical t.raining aids health, and health is a very im- portant factor in high scho-ol life, the school curriculum should leave some space -open for gym periods. Every high school student, both boys and girls, should have at least two hours each week of physical training. Good exercise is good for the body and muscles and adds graceful car- riage and charm to the appearance of a person. Good exercise, to-o, teaches good posture and good posture is an eye-catcher to people. Physical instruc- tors say that Boise is more essential to true beauty than perfectly- moulded features. Incfhes of bulgy fat can be lost without strenuous exercise and this should ad-d to the appearance of high school students. Therefore, it should be compulsory that high school students be given physical training, and that a regular programme of such training be introduced into all our schools. -..gr-g-ig., THE I. O D. E. BURSARY The I. O. D. E. Bursary for the 1948-49 term was awarded to Margery Jean MacLean, daughter of Rev. and Mrs. A. Frank MacLean, of 262 Bentinck Street.
