This is the day when the new members of the student b ody are supposed to be recognized as part of the high school. Were we ? I wonder. Oh well, it was a lot of fun.

Every time we met a senior we had to bow and say “I am your slave.” Ugh! First off, we were taken through the torture chamber. What a dismal thought.

We could hear the seniors whispering, “Where are the matches? Oh, here they are. No, no, you initiates hold on to that firecracker.” Then BANG. The boys jumped, the girls screamed, and the seniors laughed. It was only a paper bag full of air. This started the afternoon off with a bang, and I mean a bang. The rest of the afternoon the initiates cleaned the gym floor with toothbrushes. Imagine! Toothbrushes! Then we had to roll eggs around the floor with our noses. Don’t you feel sorry for us? I did. But just wait until I am in grade twelve. I pity the initiates then. —Marion Fockler,. Grade IX. HAROLD THE MIGHTY This is the story of my life. My name is Harold.
