SHERBORNE Remember catching breaths of fresh air . . . Friday nights . . . kitchen is closed, so return that green cup . . . when Melanie fell down on her head . . . Joanne neatly tied in her bed . . . the monk ' s dinner . . . agonies of munchies gripping us all . . . the flooding toilets . . . phone calls from Leon and Cathy ten feet above ground . . . the days before holidays. Hester Vair BUCCLEUCH It was a really great year we all must agree. We remember trying to teach girls from down south how to skate, and all the new girls lining up to have their ties tied. We all thank Liz for her sports activi- ties. We all often wonder what it would be like to be a day girl? But look what we would be missing! Thank you, Buccleuch House. You have made it a great year for me. Faith Reid AINSLIE An Ainslie House with the Ainslie Angels? It has been, so far as anyone else can see, a fairly quiet year. With flurries and worries before the dance, and a funny Christmas play put on by the staff. With the New Year came sun tans and changes and the exams which we feared. With boyfriends on Wednesdays and freedom on Saturdays and friends through the week, I think we ' ve made this the greatest of years. An Ainslie Angel

r hoarding hoarders MacNEILL . May we remember we are seniors. A position to spector thoroughly. Chicken is kept to the end rooms at night. No whipped cream shaves — as the hot water supply is tight. Emergency trips to the infirmary, a cough is to be attended. I.D. kept to one person — (this rule in cases may be extended). Laundry bags are a definite must inside rooms. Likely story was Sarnie ' s when he said in boarding you bloom I ! Ann Hutcheson MAIN We may be little, this little house of nine. But we ' re so cute and sooo divine. Our House Mothers, Miss Williams and Mrs. Pleau, Know our behaviour is a covering show For the real angels that we are, All coming from countries afar. You know we ' re like an exploding mine. This sweet little house of nine. Linda Bernard 5

CHOIR REPORT Zing, zing, zing a little zong for me. And so the choir has this year, for sure. Their first engagement was at St. Andrew ' s United Church on Bloor St. in October, when the girls replaced the regular choir and sang two anthems. Before long, December came along, bringing the Carol Service with it. The Carol Service was especially exciting this year, as it was held in a new church, St. Paul ' s Anglican Church to be exact. Some three thousand people came to hear Branksome at its best. The choir sang especially dulce ; this was proven by the fact that Dr. Peaker, who is the organist at St. Paul ' s, asked them to return and sing for a Sunday morning service. As of now, a date has not been definitely set. Two days before school ended for the Christmas holidays, the choir hopped on a bus which was to head for the T.D. Centre. For the second year, at Christmastime, they filled the ears of bank tellers and bystanders with carols familiar and non-familiar. But fear not, friends, for ' their singing has only just begun , for the spring will bring more music, as the annual Spring Concert will take place in April. Now I would like to take this opportunity to thank Mrs. Coutts, Mrs. Cook, the executive, and the choir, for doing such a great job this year. I should know; I ' ve been there! ' Keep singing, y ' all, Lindsay
