It calls for volunteers to form a scouting squad To strike the foe, and strike him fast, And bring back data for the main attack; A difficult, life-staking task.III The soldier hears this call, and ponders: \u201cShould I join the daring dash And risk the loss of life?\u2014 Or should I stay here, soaked but safe, And leave the others to this task?Like Theseus, of days of yore, Should I face my Minotaur?\u2014 Or should I shun away from death, Another Paris, coward, mouse?Shall I like Hercules go forth To conquer all with whom I battle?\u2014 Or shall I come back dead, Cold and pale, like stone?Shall 1, like Dave of Israel, Stand firm and brave, and face the odds So strong against me, yet prevail Against the foe that threatens Freedom?\u2014 Or shall I stay here, soaked but safe?\u201d Just at that moment, overhead a missile flew, A cannon shell launched by the infidel; It struck the tent where dead and wounded lay, And there a great explosion rocked the earth .The soldier now decided, getting up: \u201cSo shall I go; For the foe, the infidel awaits me, And with him certain death.But I and other Hectors them must face, For with them waits eternal glory, victory \u2014 And God\u2019s good grace!\u201d It rains on.Stewart Grant, Grade IX Lindsay Place High School THE EDUCATIONAL RECORD July - September, 1963 CONTENTS Announcements «ooo A AA AA A A Programme for Progress .i H.S.Billings In Search of Quality ee eee are a srr sas ee encens H.S.Billings The Fourth R \u2014 Red Cross \u2026.E.Lorraine How Teacher Leadership in Health .Metropolitan Life Insurance Company Improving the Chemistry Programme in Secondary Schools.E.C.Powell Literature .Grades IV to VII .Marguerite Horton 152 Using Trade Books with Superior Children Donald Merryman A Book Is a Book Is a Book à.Mrs.Donald McCabe Printed by La Tribune Inc., Sherbrooke IRIE EO ein rate dt nero ITN TA de rte 140 THE EDUCATIONAL RECORD Mr.Robert N.Wyse, of Lachute, who will be Inspector of Secondary Schools, was born in Boston and educated in Moncton, N.B.He received B.A.and B.Ed.degrees from Mount Allison University and has done graduate work at McGill.Following graduation in 1949 he was Principal of Bass River High School in Nova Scotia.In 1950 he joined the staff of the Lachute High School as Science specialist and has occupied this position for the past thirteen years.Mr.Wyse has been actively engaged in professional activities as a member of several sub-committees appointed by the Protestant Committee and the Provincial Association of Protestant Teachers, as Chairman of the School ç Board of St.Andrew\u2019s East and as Director of the Lachute and District Home and School Association.Mr.Wyse will inspect schools in the Counties of Argenteuil, Two Mountains, Montcalm, Joliette and Terrebonne.Mr.Murray Baldwin, Inspector of Secondary Schools, is a native of Ayer\u2019s Cliff.After graduating from the local high school he attended Bishop\u2019s where he obtained a B.A.degree and Class I teaching diploma.He has taken graduate work in School Administration and in the Supervision of Instruction.Mr.Baldwin taught for five years in St.Eustache sur-le-lac and administered schools in Terrebonne Heights and Chomedey.Since 1961 he has been Superintendent of Schools in Greater St.Martin.Mr.Baldwin will inspect schools in Gaspé, the Magdalen Islands, Quebec Labrador and Ungava.Mr.Ernest R.Tetreault of Pointe Claire will be Supervisor of French in the Protestant schools in the Counties of Argenteuil, Papineau, Chateauguay and Huntingdon.Mr.Tetreault, who is a native of Granby, was educated in Waterloo High School and the Institute of Education;
