gave a very interesting talk on the treatment of gasoline before it is put on the-market for use. The many and some- what embarrassing questions fired at him at the conclusion of his talk proved not only of interest but also the presence of m.ore than a few car drivers. Perhaps unfortunately for the satisfaction of outsiders the most important achievements of our club cannot be put down on paper but will be of lasting use and pleasant mem- ory to club members. RADIO CLUB The Radio Club this year was under the supervision of Mr. Oliver. There were about twenty-five members in the club which was divided into two groups, one under Clive Farnsworth and the other under Peter Gay. The club did not think that they had enough tim.e to go into the building of any project. Talks were therefore given by various members of the group on the theory of radio as well as on the various pieces of apparatus used. Mr. Oliver was very helpful and assisted the boys on various problems that they ran up against while giving their talks. A tour through the broadcasting room of CKCK was arranged for but unfortunately the club meetings were dis- continued unexpectedly and the radio club was unable to take advantage of this privilege. The club as a whole was very interesting and enjoyable and we hope that next year a largermembership will be attained which will make possible any project which the club may put forward. ELECTRICAL CLUB Feminine members swelled the ranks of the Electrical Club this year and found it just as instructing and enjoyable as did the boys. VVith Mr. Clark as supervisor, the oliicers elected were: President, Vlfalker Fitzgeraldg Vice-President, john Durrantg Secretary treasurer, Dennis Powers. The course of meetings began with the examination of simple electrical instruments. Later invalid irons were brought by members, dismantled, inquired into and rebuilt for operation. The erection, operation and explanation of a complete telegraph set proved interesting. But the long waited for meeting was the trip to the Telephone Exchange which lived up to every member's expectation. A projected tour of the power plant for this season will take place next year, with it is hoped as many interested members as this year. 64

Under the distinguished patronage of Mr. Hunt, and the presidency of Ed. Britten, with the secretary Leonie Bourget, the Club cut up considerably. Two hours were spent at the Provincial Museum in the Normal School studying birds and animals. From these excellent specimens much information was derived. An interesting address was given by Dr. R. C. Riley, who is in charge of the pathological laboratory of the General Hospital, and Max Viminitz gave a paper on the Protozoon paramecium. The latter was followed up with laboratory work but unfortunately the paramecium disappeared from the infusion before the work was completed. Dissection of rats was carried on successfully, so suc- cessfully in fact, that the students were enabled to see the rat's heart beating. VVe might add for the sake of S.P.C.A. supporters that this was carried on while the rats were under anaesthetic, and the rats suffered no pain. Wie extend to those who come after the wish that they may cut-up as happily as did we in our pursuit of the science of Bugology. SEWING CLUB One of the nwost interesting clubs formed this year by the girls, was the Sewing Club, under the able supervision of Miss Wheatley, our Domestic Science instructor. The club was comprised of twenty members with Marion Searle as president and Betty Graber as secretary. Various type of work were done, each girl doing that which interested ber most but due to the fact that the clubs broke up early not sufficient work was completed to be dis- played. XVe sincerely hope that this club will reorganize again next year. ' 65
