This is the first year of Branton Junior High School and of our School’s year¬ book. It is good that we have been able to get a yearbook under way this year, for now it is possible to have a pictorial history of our School from the day it originally opened. There are many ways in which the yearbook may be improved, and next year’s yearbook staff should start thinking about them early in the term. The two things which should be considered first are, we believe, a good name for the book and better pictures of the students and teachers. However, next year’s staff is bound to have some good ideas on this subject. It goes without saying that much of our inspiration came from our teachers — especially our principal, Mr. Borgal. We hope that future editors and yearbook staffs will be as fortunate as we are, in the teachers who will come to Branton Junior High School. GEORGE FOSTER One E. M. Borgai. Principal ' s Message . . . The first year of operation of Branton Junior High School is drawing to a close. I trust that it has left you with a sense of tremendous satisfaction and a thrill of accomplishment. We have had a full year. Your program has been geared to the top in every line of endeavour. In both regular studies, and extra curricular activities you have set up standards that will establish precedents for future years. I wish to con¬ gratulate you upon your private effort toward the progress of the school as a whole. Individually, your success in school can be measured to a large degree by the attitudes and habits you have established. I hope you have learned to be industri¬ ous, co-operative self reliant, and dependable. Pay attention to the bothersome and humdrum necessities of life. Be regular and enthusiastic in all your work and play. These character traits and habits will stay with you and will be assets to you in any walk of life. I trust that everyone of you will have the best of health and happiness in future years. E. M. BORGAL Two Message From The School Board . . I am proud to bring greetings and best wishes through your first year book, from the Calgary School Board to the students and staff of Branton Junior High School. This book marks a successful effort on the part of numerous students and teachers. It will remind you of many outstanding events and personalities, of great worthwhile victories and a few insignificant setbacks, of your athletic teams, your wonderful operetta, school parties, friends, and naturally of your scholastic efforts. I believe that those of you who have worked hard will have a worthwhile inner satisfaction and feeling that you have done your best. I trust that this will apply to most of you the extra-curricular activities which you chose and especially in your studies. On the road of Life true success and happiness comes only to those who establish a worth while goal and then work faithfully and diligently toward ir. Your school was named for a good, sincere, and industrious man with laudable ambitions. You could do no better than to emulate these virtues. In addition to congratulating all of the students and staff on this fine book and all that it signifies, I would offer my best wishes for your future endeavors. GOOD LUCK, LOU GOODWIN, Chairman Message From The Superintendent . . . Please convey to the students of Branton Junior High School and to the Year¬ book Staff my congratulations for their decision to publish a yearbook in this, t he first year of operation of this school. I am sure that all students will obtain lasting benefit and pleasure from this venture. To all students, and indeed to teachers, the yearbook becomes a treasure house of memories, but to those who participate in its production it brings a very special and valuable educational experience. Your school bears a good name and I trust that it will establish a fine repu¬ tation for initiative and creativeness through the implemention of projects such as the publication of a yearbook. Yours very truly, ROBT. WARREN, Superintendent of Schools. Three Message from Mr. Branton . . . after whom our school is named! It is with pleasure that I write a message to the students of the Branton Junior High School for their first Year Book. The students of Branton Junior High School are in an unique position in that they are the first student body to be enrolled in this new school. This may be con¬ sidered an honor, but with it comes a challenge and a responsibility. The future success of this school depends much on how well the foundations are laid upon which a tradition for academic attainment, a high standard of fair play and sports¬ manship and a worthy school spirit are engendered into the minds and hearts of the student body. The accomplishment of this is your challenge and we sincerely hope that you, as a student body, will successfully meet it so that you may, in the years to come, be proud that you had a part in the founding of Branton Junior High School. I make a second challenge to you individually, as young students entering upon a high school career. You should be aware from the start that the way is long, the grade is steep, and you must be prepa red to give of your best. There is no substitute for hard work; there are no short cuts — no primrose path leading to the acquiring of a sound education. This comes only by your will to achieve. I commend to you that you set your sights high. Apply self-discipline to the end that first things come first — that is, that those things which endure and give qualityto life and character have first place in your thoughts and efforts. You are passing through the most important years of your life. Your future success and happiness largely depend upon how well you use these years. Some day when your high school years are over you will step out into a very competitive world, demanding a high standard of ability and efficiency. Be ready and equip¬ ped to meet this challenge. Mrs. Branton and 1 have noted with interest and pleasure the success that your school has already attained in the realm of sports and congratulate you. We wish you further success in the days to come. Sincerely, W. A. BRANTON Four A Happy Class R.

The Students’ Union had a successful year under the capable supervision of Mr. Borgal and Mr. Darrah, our teacher sponsors. The executive chosen in the September election consisted of: President — Valerie Brock 1st Vice-President — Roland Laing 2nd Vice-President — Carole Casey Secretary-Treasurer — Jackie Homeniuk Grade 9 Social Convener — Delano Lee Grade 8 Social Convener — Bryanne Davidson Grade 7 Social Convener — Ronnie Aiello The room representatives were chosen from each room. They were: 9A Linda Drew, Russ Turner 9B Nola Verigin, Gordon Fairhead 9C Don Blair, Shonnie Guy 9D Carolyn Baldwin, Bob Pike 7A Gordon Sheppard, Diane Parkyn 8A Florin Korman, Sharon Irving 8B Sandra McWhinney, Chris Clarke 8C Walter Spanier, Vanna Mickle 8D Bob McBean, Karen Kunelius 7B Jack Templeton, Sandra Wusyk The meetings were held about twice a month in the Council Room. The meet¬ ings followed regular and quite business-like procedure. One highlight of our activities was the donating of money for the Hungarian Relief Fund. The sum of $103 was contributed by the teachers and students for this worthwhile cause. Our special activities included mainly a few parties and shags (after school), Easter and Christmas. These were capably handled by our social conveners. The Students’ Union also lent a hand for the selecting and buying of the school rings, pins and crests. As this is the first year of Branton’s Students’ Union we hope we have set a good example for those who shall follow. The success of the Students’ Union was mainly due to the co-operation and support of students and teachers. Keep up the god work, Branton, and Good Luck next year! Valerie Brock.

Twenty-Seven Twenty-Eight The Official Opening of Branton Junior High School Chairman Dudley Ward announced the singing of ‘Oh Canada’. Following this a pantomime, directed by Miss Elliott and presented by several students, effectively portrayed the main activities, both curricular and extra-curricular, carried on at our school. The platform party were then introduced. They included: Mr. E. M. Borgal, Principal Mr. R. Warren, Superintendent of School Mr. H. E. Panabaker, Assistant Superintendent of Junior High Schools Mr. L. W. Bessell, Secretary-Treasurer of the School Board Mr. Lou Goodwin, Chairman of the School Board Mrs. E. Leew, School Board Member Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Branton. The two honoured guests of the evening were Mr. and Mrs. Branton. Mr. Branton has held the important office of Building Superintendent since 1911, but retired this year. Following the introduction, Fran Van Sant and Vicky Wade beautifully sang two duets accompanied on the piano by Mr. R. Darrah. In Mr. Goodwin’s speech, he compared schools of yesteryear with those of today. He then pointed out why Mr. Branton had the great honour of having this beautiful school named after him. He mentioned two of Mr. Branton’s main char¬ acteristics—his devotion to duty and his unfailing good humour and wit. In his reply Mr. Branton stated that students of today should make the best of their educational opportunities. A brief description of the school was given by Mr. Panabaker. The school was then declared open for public inspection. Following this tour of inspection, which proved a revelation to everybody concerned, coffee and doughnuts were served in the school’s very attractive lunchroom. Thus ended a most memorable event at Branton Junior High School. FLORIN KORMAN (8A) Report on Social Activities Branton’s first shag was sponsored by the Students’ Council on November 13, for all the students of the school. To everyone’s delight classes were dismissed 15 minutes early, and everyone congregated in the auditorium to buy pop and candy. Dancing got under way about 3.45 with Grade Nine social convener, Delano Lee, acting as M.C. Almost everyone participated in the variety of dances, including waltzes, the ever-popular jive, and a few round dances; Bingo, Broom and Squat Dances were liked very much. Jackie Hamilton and Doug Blair were the lucky ones to win prizes. The proceeds of the admission and selling of pop went to the treasury of the Students’ Council. The Hi-Y Boys received the proceeds of their very popular and successful candy sale. Our second shag was sponsored by the Photography Club on Tuesday, Decem¬ ber 10, from 3.30 till 5 p.m. A great many students took part in the ‘Spot Dances’, ‘Bingo Waltzes’, ‘Squat Dances’ and several Jives. The happy winners of these were: Tiny Tomlinson- Ruth Bennett, Ronnie Aiello-Paula Brock, Ronnie Aiello-Lynne Erickson, Jack Con- nors-Nola Verigin. We all received an added treat when four of our teachers demonstrated their dancing skills: Mr. McKie, Miss Murray, Mrs. Gavinchuck, and Mr. Borgal. We wound up with the ‘Home Waltz’ shortly before five o’clock. Everyone had a most enjoyable time. Our first school dance was held on February 8, with Grades Eight and Nine attending. The auditorium was gaily decorated with hearts and cupids. Social convener, Delano Lee, got things under way shortly after 7.30. There were many novelty dances and contests, with an added treat given by our “Grand Ole Opry” Group who had performed for us in the morning. At the end of the dance pop and spud-nuts were served in the lunch room. The Grade Sevens also held a sock-shag in the Lower Gymn shortly after Christmas. Sandra Wusyk was a very good M.C. Mr. McKie, Miss Murray and Miss Anderson showed some nice dancing.

AT YOUR ICE CREAM DEALERS Thirty REPORT ON THE OPERETTA On March 21 and 22 of this year, the romantic musical comedy, “The Gypsy Rover”, was ably presented at Branton Junior High School at 8.00 p.m. under the direction of Mr. Robert Darrah, and Miss C. J. Elliott. The accompanist was Pat¬ ricia Colvin, grade 9 C. Rob (afterwards Sir Gilbert Howe) . Mark Hornby Lady Constance (daughter of Sir George) Vicky Wade Meg (Rob’s foster mother) .. Carolyn Bond Marto (Meg’s husband) .. . Tom Tait Zara (belle of the Gypsy camp) .. Carol Harris Sinfo (gypsy boy in love with Zara) . Roland Laing Nina (Sir George’s second daughter) . Karen Jackson Capt. Jerome (Capt. in English Army) Robert Lord Lord Craven (an English fop) .. Delano Lee Sir Toby Lyon (a social butterfly) . Don Blair McCorkle (a London song publisher) . Darrel Williamson Lackey ... Robert Maxwell Chorus . about 120 voices Children in Fairyland Chorus ... B. Bishop, D. Parkyn, L. Ericksson, B. Brown, R. MacKinnon and L. Wood Fairy Dancer . Linda Drew Briefly, the story is about the love affair of Rob (who is an English noble¬ man stolen when small and raised as a gypsy) and Constance, the daughter of Sir George, an English gentleman. When Rob came into his estates, he married his love and they lived happily ever after. There are also love affairs between Nina and Capt. Jerome, Zara and Sinfo and comedy scenes between Marto and Sinfo. There were various committees which assisted with the operetta besides the actual players. The props and lighting were under the supervision of Mr. Marson with several of the shop boys assisting. Mr. McKie was in charge of the scenery and was assisted by some of his art students. Miss Anderson organized the make¬ up while Mrs. McPherson was responsible for the costumes. Mr. Steele and Miss Murray took over the ticket sale (which sold 50c rush and 75c reserved) and pub¬ licity. The programmes were printed free by the Hudson’s Bay Company. The operetta played to a full house on both nights. Net proceeds were very encourag¬ ing and will be used to supply school equipment not normally supplied by the School Board. Because over half of the students in the school were involved in one way or another in its production, the operetta was considered a very worthwhile school project.

Thirty-Five BOYS ' SPORTS Boys’ sports have fallen into two categories during the past year. Most of the boys have participated in a House League sports program while some have qualified to participate in Inter-School sports. Inter-School sports opened the year’s activities with both a Junior and Senior team entered in the league. In the double knock-out competition the Senior boys lost their first games to Queen Elizabeth and Colonel Macleod and were eliminated from further competition. After this elimination they went ahead to play exhibi¬ tion games with Balmoral and King George teams. The Junior Boys, coached by Mr. Scheer, fared a little better as they went to the semi-finals before being eliminated by Queen Elizabeth. All of the games played in both sections were close scoring affairs and the boys can be proud of their efforts. With the advance of the fall season the picture changed to a House League program for Touch Rugby. The air over the adjacent park area was filled for a month with passes, kicks and yells of excitement as three teams, Ron Aiello’s Grade 7’s, Lori Desreux’s 8 D’s and Tiny Tomlinson’s 9 D crew churned and scrapped their way to victory. During the period from November to early April activity in the sports program was confined to the gyms. Badminton was the one sport that flourished throughout this entire period. Three tournaments were played, — a boys’ and girls’ doubles tournament, singles tournament and to finish off a big mixed doubles tournament. People from all of the grades participated and had a great time playing and knocking birds down from the rafters. The victors of the Grade 7 mixed tourna¬ ment were Betty Mainwaring and Ricky Hiscox with Linda Menzies and Ron Aiello, Paula Brock and Ken Riefsnyder tied for second place. The Grade 8 and 9 Mixed Tournament produced many close and exciting games with the seven top couples participating in an Inter-School Badminton tournament at the Glencoe Club. The stalwarts representing our school were Val Brock and Tom Tait, Marion Cook and Don Blair, Vicky Wade and Rich Leb- sack, Mavis James and Ron Rowe, Nola Verigin and Ron Clowes, Judy Peschke and Ted Lawson and Jackie Hamilton and Tom Voykin. Volleyball was another winter sport and a boys’ House League flourished during November and December with all grades participating. Games were arranged with Queen Elizabeth with Grade 8 and Grade 9 teams participating. We are glad to report that the boys won the complete set from Queen Elizabeth. During the early spring a Mixed Volleyball House League was played which involved most of the people in the school. Ron Aiello’s 7B team won their section while Dexter Daniel’s 8D group took the laurels in that grade. In the Grade 9 tournament Carol Harris’s team is leading in the Volleyball at the present time. Basketball, of the Inter-School variety, was one of the sports highlights of the year. Both the Senior and Junior All-Star teams were picked from members of the House League teams. The Junior Boys’ team, coached by Mr. Marson, managed to win one game during their schedule while the Senior Boys coached by Mr. Steele, had a fairly good year winning three games and losing three. Preparations for track are under way at the time of writing and everyone is hoping for the best. Also in prospect, after Track is completed, is baseball with both House League and Inter-School competition planned. Thirty-Six JIM MAURO THE BOOSTER CLUB Last October the Booster Club, consisting of two representatives from each room, was formed under the direction of Miss Murray and Mr. Steele. From the representatives an executive was chosen consisting of: Donna Paterson, President Paula Brock, Vice President Lori Desreux, Secretary Treasurer. In the activities of the club this past year, were included a Dance Club, opera¬ tion of a Lost and Found and organization of House League activities. Money raised by the Booster Club through its operations was used to help to pay for a set of twenty-four boys’ Basketball uniforms. The sale of school crests has been handled by the Booster Club and also they have procured small crests to award to some House League teams and crests for the outstanding athletes in the school. We were fortunate in receiving a donation of figures for three sports trophies from Strohan’s Jewellery. These will be used for House League awards in the school. Thanks are also extended to Mr. Marson for the making of the bases for these trophies. We wish to thank all of you for your support in giving Branton’s first Booster Club a successful year.

Papers were issued every second month and nearly all rooms had one hundred percent subscription. Our school exchanged papers with other Junior High Schools throughout the city. This gave us new ideas as well as an opportunity to see what other schools were doing.

Handball, until now has been played chiefly by members of the Y.M.C.A.’s, gone over in a big way in Branton Junior High School. This game was made possible by the perfect set-up the lower gymnasium provides. There are two courts of ample size. The concrete walls provide a hard smooth playing surface and the hardwood floor is resilient enough to be comfortable. Handball, until now has been layed chiefly by members of the Y.M.C.A.’s, firemen and policemen of the province. Judging by the enthusiasm of the Branton students for the game it would be a success in any of the schools. Handball is a wonderful conditioning game. It requires a fast eye and develops quick reactions. Its big advantage over most sports is that it develops both sides of the body equally well. A good player must learn to use his left arm as well as his right. Handball has been played enthusiastically at Branton all year, chiefly at noon and after school. Although it is basically a boys game we had about 8 girls who took part at noons and developed a first class swing adding some style to it as well. Sixty-four boys, mainly from Grades VIII and IX took part in the final tournament. The winners of the doubles trophy donated by Mr. Borgal were: Bob Wilson and Bryan Huggard. They were closely followed in skill and strategy by: Tom Faulkner and Delbert Huggard Dave Peers and Tom Voykin Bob Pike and Russ Turner Ross Rowe and Lorie Desreux Richard Lebsack and Bob Inverarity Champions - Bob Wilson, Bryan Huggard.

If it were not for the shoe, people would crowd around the equator to keep warm. The shoe was not invented by any one person. The shoe probably originated with the Babylonians. Their idea was a piece of hide (usually from either a donkey, rhinoceros, or some other local animal) held to their feet by a strap which ran between their toes and joined another strap around their heel. The purpose of this “shoe” was to protect their feet from sharp stones, hot sand and broken glass from coke bottles which passing chariots had thrown along the highway. Since then, 15,921 shoemakers have contributed to the shoe’s improvement. Today the shoe comes in all shapes and sizes. There are big ones, small ones, tall ones, short ones, heel-less ones, toe-less ones, and shoe-less ones. The uses today also differ from the time of the Babylonians. Today’s uses are 1. spanking little boys’ bottom when they are bad; 2. housing the old woman who lived in a shoe; 3. throwing at a chorus of cats in the middle of the night, and 4. tying on the back of a “Just Married’ car. P.S.—Some use them for walking. GEORGE FORSTER, 8A My Lessons They laughed when I sat down at the piano—some fathead had pulled the stool away. After that unfortunate mishap I decided the piano was for the birds, so I started the accordion. The accordion has several modern names, such as the squeeze box, the wrinkle machine, or the standard version, the stomach pincher. My first lesson got off with a bang, when I couldn’t get the straps to fit properly. First, I got it on, but soon discovered the straps were too tight, for when I opened the bellow, then closed them, I half tore the shirt off my back, and almost thought I had dislocated my shoulder. Then, I got it so loose that the accordion was down to my knees. After fifteen minutes of putting on, and taking off, I finally got the accordion to fit quite well. I settled down in my chair, to get on with my lesson, only to find that I had a 48 bass accordion instead of a 32 bass. Now after several lessons they’re actually trying to play with one hand stretched a foot or more out, trying to find which button to play, to watch the music, press half a dozen keys at the same time, and trying to count out loud. Next, after play¬ ing half a dozen pages of music you discover repeat bars, and so after all you’ve been through you have to start over again. They say it’s a pleasure to be able to play the accordion. After all I’ve gone through, all I’ve accomplished is a sore stomach, sore wrists, sore shoulders, and a pair of crossed eyes. After all this, if your plan is to take up the accordion for something to do, let me tell you there is no easy way to success. Take it from me! Forty-Three CAM INGLES Mistakes In this fast moving world there are many so-called experts. But from what I can gather the reason they’re where they are is because they know how to cover up their mistakes. For example if a dentist slips with the drill or makes a mess of a tooth he just pulls it and throws it away, in fact some dentists will pull them all and try to sell you a whole new set. When a lawyer can’t win a case for his client he doesn’t need to worry because if he wins, the man is innocent and the lawyer gets a pat on the back because everything likes to see the guilty punished. The school teachers cover up their mistakes of the year by blaming the student and failing them. But the doctor has them all beat because of he makes a mistake with the slip of the knife or a wrong diagnosis, he sends his patient to the undertakers, who benefit because of it. This is the case in all professions. So a suggestion to all hard working school students, if you are planning to make a name for yourself in the business world just learn how to cover up your mis¬ takes better than the other fellow.

Graduation Ball VALEDICTORY We are very proud and honoured to be the first class to graduate from Branton Junior High School. I am sure we all remember the thrill of the first day; coming to a brand new school with its shiny class rooms and modern equipment. We were indeed very fortunate to have such a lovely building and fine staff of teachers in our important final year of Junior High School. Usually grade nine is made up of last year’s class mates. This year we have come together from different schools, from different teachers. This has given us an opportunity to make new friends and take part in new and varied activities. Branton has no tradition but in the future we will be her past, so we have been doing our best all year to establish fine precedents. Our main project of the year was of course the Operetta, to which every individual, teacher and student alike contributed many long hours of planning and practising. Aside from the splendid work done by the actual performers much was done behind the scenes Forty-Eight by way of stage properties, make-up, costumes, advertising and ticket sales, to make the whole project a wonderful success. The real success of our Operetta lay in the co-operative spirit that day by day drew us together in one common goal. Sports have also played a big part in our year, with the Branton Senior girls win¬ ning the volley-ball and basketball championships. Throughout our class rooms and throughout all the activities there has been an underlying feeling of deter¬ mination and drive to make this year a memorable one. All this naturally turns our thoughts to those who have played such an im¬ portant part in our individual successes. I refer of course to our teachers and parents. We are deeply grateful to them for giving so freely of their time, patience, interest and understanding guidance to our every problem whether it be big or small. Up until now the choice has not been ours whether to go to schoo l or not. We have received the foundation of our education, something for us to fall back upon in later years. Now it is for us to decide what we will build on this founda¬ tion. I am sure with the training we have received in co-operation and citizen¬ ship together with the wonderful Branton spirit we will continue to higher goals. We will have other graduations but this one we will remember as being both a happy and a rather sad event, as we will leave these surroundings which have become so familiar to us. Our places will shortly be filled by others just as eager and determined to succeed. It is our sincere wish that the valuable experiences we have enjoyed will in due time be theirs.

Must be willing to travel.” Two ladies arrived at the ball park just as the batter hit a home run. They watched the game quietly until the same batter, several innings later, hit another home run. One of the ladies leaned over and said, “Let’s go. This is where we came in.” The Hard Way: Slippery ice, very thin, Pretty girl, tumbles in. Saw a boy on the bank, Gave a shriek as she sank. Boy on bank heard her shout, Jumped right in and pulled her out. Now he’s her’s very nice, But first she had to break the ice. A French teacher, who was trying to get a hard lesson across to the class, said, “If you say a word ten times you will have it for life.” As the teacher looked around the room, he heard one of his girl students saying in a low voice, “Tom, Tom, Tom, Tom.” A Mother tiptoed into her little boy’s room, to keep him from being frightened during an electrical storm. The child opened his eyes and mumbled, “What’s Daddy doing with the TV set now?” Mrs. Gavinchuck: Delano, can you tell me how iron was discovered? Delano: I heard my father say they smelt it. The decrepit old car drove up to the toll bridge. “Fifty cents,” said the gateman. “Sold”, replied the driver. Doctor: Was it while you were on the football team that you got hurt? Boy: Oh, no, sir. It was while the football team was on me. Visitor: Is your brother planning to marry? Little boy: I don’t think so — he’s studying for a bachelor’s degree. “Company attention,” barked the ser¬ geant. “Every man lift up his left leg and hold it straight out in front of him.” A nervous rookie held up his right leg, next to his buddie’s left leg. “O kay,” snaped the sergeant. “Who’s the wise guy holding up both legs?” A motorist, filling in an accident re¬ port, wrote: “I was backing out of a parking space, and by the time I had backed out far enough to see what was coming, it already had.” DE OF BRANTON In the Egyptian room of the museum, two boys stopped before a mummy in a mummy case bearing a card with the notation: 2453 B.C. “What do you suppose 2453 B.C. means ?” whispered one boy. “I don’t know,” replied the other? “Unless it’s the license number of the car that hit him.” Mr. Scheer: What is the outstanding contribution that chemistry has made to the world? Gary: Blondes. Mr. Smith took his niece to the ballet. The little girl watched the ballerinas dancing on tiptoe a while, then turned to her uncle and asked, “Why don’t they get taller girls?” A teenager sent his girl her first orchid. Enclosed was this note: “With all my love and most of my allowance.” Definition of quadruplets—Four crying out loud. A fat man and a very thin man col¬ lided on the street, to the annoyance of both. The fat man looked at the thin man and sneered: “From the looks of you, there’s been a famine around here.” “From the looks of you,” retorted the thin man, “you caused it.” Doctor: How’s the boy who swallowed the half dollar? Nurse: No change yet, Doctor. “George?” Asked the biology teacher, “where is the elephant found?” George scratched his head in despair and then brightened. “The elephant,” he said, “is such a large animal it’s almost never lost.” He: If you owned two ducks and a cow what would you have? She: I don’t know. He: Quackers and milk. Confucius might have said: To be able to speak in many languages is valuable, but to be able to be quiet in one is priceless. Doctor: And what is your age, madam? Patient: I never tell my age, but as a matter of fact I just reached twenty- eight. Doctor: Really? What detained you? It is nice for children To have pets, Until the pets Start having children. Fifty-One HAMMILL MOTORS LTD.
