These literary meetings were greatly enjoyed by the members of the class. They consisted of speeches, scandal, and ak Pk as Adam had his troubles, No doubt, in days of yoreg But no one said when he told a yarn, l've heard that one before. Current events, which proved very helpful and enjoyable. After the Christ- mas holidays we continued these meet- ings, but instead of having the regular program, we had several debates in which the pupils put forth every effort to have their side win. During the latter part of Ianuary we, along with the two first forms, held our tobogganing party. This briefly outlines our form activ- ities for the year, but it would not be complete if we did not mention the fact that we also do our part in the athletic activities of our school. One of our members, Phyllis Stainer, plays defence on the Iunior Basket ball team. So it must seem clear to all who read that Form I C is no insignificant unit among the forms of the B. H. S.

Pk Pk Pk A SURE CURE A Scotsman who was a bad sailor was crossing the Channel. He went to the captain and asked him what he should do to prevent sea-sickness. Have you got a sixpence'? asked the captain. Aye , replied the Scot. Well, hold it between your teeth during the trip. ik Dk Pk I was going to have some sponge cake as a surprise for you but I confess it has been a failure. VVhat was the matter'?,' I don't know for sure, but I think the druggist gave me the wrong kind of Sponges. City Girl Cpointing to a wild plant by the waysidel- YVhat's that? Country cousin- That's milkweedf' City girle- Uh, yes, that's what you feed the cows on. Bk Sk ak A duel between two German students in which both were slightly wounded, was a matter of only three minutes and, of course a couple of seconds. BANG Oh, would I were a bird, she sang, And each disgusted one, who listened, to himself did say- Oh, would I were a gunlu vs ff :ic It was once said that if anybody begins to bully you, a good remedy is: first, very slowly divest yourself of your coat, looking the offender squarely in the eyes, then still looking him in the eyes slowly take off your vest and roll up your sleeves. If by that time your opponent has not shown any signs of weakening you had better pick up your things and start running. Pk Ik Pk An Englishman, a Scotchman, and an Irishman were in a boat. The water was getting rough and they were afraid that they would all be drowned. The Englishman knelt down to pray: the Irishman took off his hat, and the Scotch man jumped over-board because he thought the Irishman was going to take up a collection. :ll Pk :ll One day a farmer went into a hard- ware store to buy something and the hardware dealer said: Why don't you buy a bicycleff No, replied the farmer, I would rather buy a cow. VVell, you would look funny riding a cow, wouldn't you.? asked the dealer. Yes, but I would look funnier milk- ing a bicycle.
