DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION
It gives me great pleasure to send the message of Ayood wish to the magazine published by the English literary association of Wijayaratnam Hindu Central College, Neaombo.
English is taught as a second language in Aovernment schools, especially teaching the second language, Natural skills Listening, speaking and Artificial skills reading a writing are centered in the Teaching learning process.
I am sure the English literary association will concentrate more on our natural skills listening and speaking with the other artificial skills because, English is not the mother tongue of our children.
While implementing "School based assessment" in our institutions, The English literary association of Wijeratnam Hindu Central College will join hand in hand with the alevelopment of cognitive, psychomotin, social skills and exemplary affective and personality traits.
I amativen to Understand that this is the first occasion an English magazine is published at this unstition under the aguidance of Mr. S.A.G.A. Fernando or Mrs. M.L.M. Fernando.
I wish to put om record, onur appreciation to the dedicated principal Mr. N. Ganashalingam, Deputy Principal message Joseph Peris T. Thawaragah Mrs. G. Murgan and the staff för enhancing co-curricular activities with the curricula activities.
I wish the English literary association all success it it's

There is a saying that "A man with no knowledge of English is half baked" We get to know so many things in this modern, dynamic world through the International English Language. Hence, it is our bounden duty to make way for the children the future
Aeneration, to attain proficiency in the language in every aspect.
I am very glad to say that "The English Literature Day" is being celebrated for the first time in the history of the school during my tenure as Principal.
Associations of this Category help to bring out the latent talents of the scholars to the limelidht and ultimately mould them to be balanced citizens in every aspect of life.
At this juncture, this Association is Publishing a 'Souvenir' of which I am, very Proud and Happy.
Finally, I congratulate and thank the "Patron' who is the prop of this Association, the other member teachers, the President, the Secretary, the Treasurer and the rest who shouldered every responsibility as their own to bring this 'Souvenir' to form.

I am Happy to aive this message to the School Literery Association Souvenir the staff I have inevitab as a long standing member of been asociated with every step taken by the school during the last two decades. 貂懿
I have taken special note of the growing interest of th children in the field of English education confined basically to the classrooms in the seventies and eighties a new awareness in much in eridence in the nineties bacause of the everwidening horizons and the possibilities of reaching them through the mass communication media. The realisation that this reach is made easy in variahl through the knowledge of Ehglish is both timely and commendable. I am happy that our students are equal to the challenge.
The teachers concerned must be lauded for encouraging the children to undrtake and helping them to successfully complete this venture. While hoping such ventures will continue in the future too. I think it is fitting to end this message with a few : 'ords from Alexander Pope.
"A Little knowlege is a dangerous thing Drink deep or taste not the pierian spring Their shallow droughts intoxicate the brain And drinking largely sobers us again.
"The heights by greatmen reached and kept Were not attained by sudden flight But they, while their companions slept Were toiling upward in the night.

In 1905 Albert Einstein the famous scientist, worked out a mathematical formula for the conversion of matter into energy. According to this formala if one gram of matter is converted into formula energy, it would produce 90,000 billion foules of energy. The atom bomb is the product of this great formula.
The first atombomb oft
vaporized and a huge
atom bomb, uranium 235 or plutonii, sed. Tivo pieces of these metals are put in a metal case separately when some body intends to explode an atom bomb, these two pieces are bought in contact by a scientific method. The neutron coming with the cosmic rays initiate the fussion which results in an uncontrolled chain reaction, This produces a huge amount of eneray. This is what is known as the explosion ofan atom bomb.

WHAT Is DIAMOND J
O
Diamond is the most precious substance in the world. It is the hardest material known so far. It cannot be cut by any metal, or for that metal by anything. Diamond can be cut only by a diamond. Metal say impregnated with diamond powder is used for cutting the diamonds.
Diamond which is the pure crystalline form of carbon is obtained from mines at 900c, it starts burning slowly and combines with atmospheric oxygen to form carbon clioxede. At 1000C, it gets converted in to graphite. At higher temperatures the rate of information of araphite is faster.
It is a good conductor of heat but a had conductor of electricity. Its thermal conductivity is five times greater than that of copper. Until 1955, diamond was obtained only from mines but latter certain synthetic methods for its manufacturer vere also aleveloped. Diamond obtained fronu mines is called natural alliamond, where as the one made by synthetic methods is called artificial diamond. Afica is the biggest source of natural diamonds. About 95% of these come from this continent Before they come to the market for sale they are cut into different shapes and polished. The shine of diamonds is not spoiled even after hundreds of years.
Synthetic diamonds were made for the first time in the world by the general electric Co. of USA in 1956. In the synthetic process diamonds are produced from graphite. In high temperature furnaces graphite is converted into diamond. Synthetic diamond resembles the natural diamond in many respects. These are Aenerally used in jewellery and industry.

One man's meat they say is another man's poison. what is regarded as important by one man may not be regarded in the same way by another. However three things I value very much in life are health, a good reputation and money of his life.
A man may be well educated and learned or a man may be very rich, or he may belong to a very aristocratic family-or he may be very clever and skilful but if his character is not good he will not be respected or loved by others. A good reputation is not something that comes to us casily. We have to build it up' and once it is built up we must see that we don't mar our good reputation. Most important of all things is a good reputation,
Health is also important to every one of us. to study well, to take part in sports, to go through the rough and tumble, of life, even to serve our country and for so many other purposes a man needs good health. Without good health a person will not be able to develop his talents, Even a rich man will not be able to cnjoy his wealth unless he is in good health. A person who does not enjoy good health will have to find an easy job and such jobs are not easy to find. Even if a man obtains a job he will not be able to work for a long time unless he is blessed with good health.
Life has always been beset with difficulties but today it is best with even more trials and to get oway from all these difficulties a person should possess the gift of aood health.
Money too is something important, Today we all know that there is hardly anything we can do without money.
Everything is up in prize and so we need more and more money to meet our day to day needs. But though money is important, we must be careful about the way we get the money. This is very important. Equally important is the way we use the money, knowing the value and importance of money, we must not waste it. We must try to make the best use of it.

WHAT I CONSIDER IMPORTANTI
One man's meat they say is another man's poison. what is regarded as important by one man may not be regarded in the same way by another. However three things I value very much in life are health, a good reputation and money of his life.
A man may be well educated and learned or då man may be very rich, or he may belong to a very aristocratic family-or he may be very clever and skilful but if his character is not good he will not be respected or loved by others. A good reputation is not something that comes to us easily. We have to build it up' and once it is built up we must see that we don't mar our good reputation. Most important of all things is a good reputation.
Health is also important to every one of us. to study well, to take part in sports, to go through the rough and tumble, of life, even to

A person who does not enjoy good health will have to find an easy job and such jobs are not easy to find. Even if a man obtains a job he will not be able to work for a long time unless he is blessed with good health.
Life has always been beset with difficulties but today it is best with even more trials and to get ovay from all these difficulties a person should possess the aifi of dood health.

We are the children Have done no wrong to anyone Tell us, what have we done? We are the Children Crying for the fearless morld ill
There is something common in the world That is par!!!
We cannot understand What they're fidhting for lll

ཛོད༽ GOOD MANNNERG
Good manners are important. A man is known by his manners. A bad mannered person is no better than a beast. People send their children to good schools so that they become well mannered. Good manners win love and respect.
Good manners means that we should be good to others. We should behave micely" We should not hurt others by our action or speech. A man is judged by his behaviour. Good manners should be acquired and cultivated.
We should always observe dood manners. We should be courteous and polite. We should thank for the service done to us. While talking to others. We should be slow and patient. We should allow others to speak soft. We should see that others do not feel bored whit our talk. Never put a finger into nose or ear while talking.
Consideration for old, sick, women and children is important. When travelling we should try to accommodate others. We should help the old, the sick and the blind to cross the road" Plucking flowers in the public park is a had mannen: A birdie talking in a library When sneezing put your handkerchiefon your mose and say "sorry"
If we behave in such a way we can make the world a happier and better place. Good manners create friendship and afood will. It is a sure path to success and happiness.
