The Board of Education has purchased the large lot at the north west comer of Clifton Avenue and McMillan Street and has accepted plans for a line new building to be erected thereon. This building is to be one of the linest in the country. It will have accommodations for lifteen hundred pupils. It will make provision for all courses of studywAcademic, manual training, commercial, and domealic science. It will have two gymnasiumse-one for boys and one for girls-a swimming pool, and ShOVK er- baths. It-a laboratories for physics, chemistry, and biology will lie fully equipped with the best that modern knowledge can provide Its fine large auditorium will seat about fifteen hundred. SepErate study rooms will be provided in order that pupils may not be disturbed during their study periods by recitatiohs of others. The library, too, will have coup modious quallers, In short no pains will be 5pared to make the new building complete in everr particular. No one can say with certainly when the new school will be ready for occupancy.

ObiooidoIbdoododo-ooddotoooodobiooooooooooooooooodoooooooooooooooooooooooooo I .3 CLASS PROPHECY .9 One day the girls of famous nineteen-seven Decided that earth would really he heaven, If only lthe men were taken away And they alone were allowed to stay! Howevelg since this was not to be hatL And thinking conditions very bad, They agreed a city'of their own to found, And all to do their share to be hound. They left their native town in tears, Full of hope and courage and many fears. They landed at length in a remote land, Far from home and a helping hand, A palace they found there large and old, And strong enough to hold the whole fold: Furnished with very fine taste and style, And altogether a grand old pile. In selecting ofhcers, especially the Mayor, They realized they'd come to pulling hair: Therefore they voted that by initials They would proceed to elect their officials. Macke for Mayor was a very fine choice; Sautow for Secretary was called by each voice; Suit the stenographer then was made; Wood the one who all wages paid. 19 .0000... 0.0.0.000... CIOIOOOOOOOOI...

X0 graft and no boss we insisted upon- We had come for pleasure, and also for fun. To satisfy our desire for pleasure He had, to be sure, more than one precious treasure. Miss Albert and Smith for us did sing; 0ft with their praises did our voices ring! tevington and Edwards books did write. Nor did they for the honors fight. Miss Grad and Powell could well recite; To Government House did the Mayor them invile. And there entertained the belles of the timee Miss Hargrave, Koch, and others mince Berne. Davis. Davidson, Rolth. Darrow, Fisher, Ries, Evens, Roifs. But pleasure was not the only thing. For our memories still to Old Hughes did cling: A body of learners instructed our claim Embshofi Le Count. Sehweninger. Strautman. They lectured on many original topics: r3esides these. Belmer Spoke on her trip to the tropics, And many an interesting lesson in Engiish XYas given by Knapp. who in this was dis- tinguished.
