UNDER PARENTAL EYES
TECHNICAL DEMONSTRATION VISITORS’ DAY AT COLLEGE THROWING its doors open to -*■- visitors, the Seddon Memorial Technical College carried on yesterday afternoon as if it was oblivious of their presence. The idea was to give parents and others interested a view of the inside working of the many departments and to prove to them the value of the technical and commercial training given at the school. Big machines turned over, electrical appliances stuttered and emitted sparks, and chemistry experiments went on in front of parental eyes. Metal-workers and wood-workers showed the progress they were making with their trades, and the girls demonstrated their cooking and their dressmaking. The many visitors were not left entirely to their own devices, but were shown ovfer by a guide system. It is the board’s intention to open the school again to-morrow.
