EDMONTON NORMAL SCHOOL FIRST AID Over two hundred students attended First Aid Classes under Miss Hastie’s skilful supervision. With so many enrolled, three classes had to be formed, one of which met Wednesday nights, one on Friday afternoons, and one on Saturday mornings. Although our time this year had been shortened consider¬ ably nearly all the students attended faithfully, and were credited with the required number of hours to qualify them for taking their final examination. The classes took the form of interesting lectures by Miss Hastie during the first hour, followed by practise in first aid principles on various “patients” during the second hour. The course was terminated by an oral examination conducted by a doctor secured for the purpose. In addition to the fun, we had the gratification of successful work, for all of us qualified for the first certificate. “FIRST AID” “First Aid to the injured” Is Nurse Hastie’s cry. Some two hundred students To do or to die. Splints to the right of them, splints to the left of them. Bandages and reef-knots—they tied the best of them. Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays too, All members attended, we give them their due. They acted as patients and helped us to see, What a real first aid case is likely to be. Peter Bodnar pretended his leg had been broke, And Bill Hansen splinted him—it wasn’t a joke. With tears in their eyes the students stood by, And watched Bill splint Peter as there he did lie. And then there was Aaron, alas and alack, Stretched out on the floor, with his poor broken back. They tenderly raised him, to Nurse’s instruction, Onto a stretcher of proper construction. And then the jaw bandage—it really was funny The patient looked just like a big Easter bunny. And poor drowned Sadoway, gasping for breath, Saved by resuscitation from horrible death. The exam had been scheduled—the examiner obtained And for those who succeeded, a certificate gained. S o now, friends and patients, all joking aside We know our “First Aid Rules” by which we’ll abide. E. SNOW, Class F.

AURORA, 1941-42 63 • In comparison with other years, the “Lits” this year have been few and far between. For this we may blame inadequate space and insufficient time for practise and performance. These factors prevented us from attaining our objective of “every student on the stage at least once during the year”. Considerable re-organization of our committee was necessitated during the term when some of the original members left to take up schools. However, in February the “Lit.” blossomed forth in a picturesque St. Valentine’s oper¬ etta and pageant, under the supervision of Dr. Tuck and the direction of Thelma Sutherland. The leading soloists were Vivian Millin and Henry Repp, Martha McCormick and Mike Pawliuk. A feature of the operetta which was greatly appreciated by the audience was the fine dance number under the direction of Peggy Freeman. Our March programme honored the sons of Erin in the play “Spreading the News” which was sponsored by the Dramatic Club. The leading roles were capably taken by Mildred Larsen and Jim Soneff, with Henry Repp directing and Dr. Dickie supervising. A pleasing musical production, “Ireland Sings”, directed by Peggy Freeman, and a delightful rendition of selections from “H.M.S. Pinafore” by Mrs. Higgin’s Glee Club rounded out the program. To all who helped we say “Thank you”.
