THE PERROQUET We went! First to the show, ay, there's the rub, For in that show of thrills how time did go. There Was a silence in the theatre, The air was tense and still, Then came a loud explosion- Just Evelyn's gum, said Bill. 'Twas half-past ten, when we arose And wandered up the street As joking, joshing, gay a crowd, As you would care to meet. We swooped upon the Mutch's And with one accord cried Eatsl The boys ate all the sandwiches, And likewise all the sweets 3 And Mr. Allan liked them too, 'Specially one good chocolate cake, With all the gooey icing- It Wasn't hard to take. At last the midnight hour rolled 'round, And we prepared to leave. We thanked our lovely hostess Most sincerely, you may believe. We scattered far and wide again, And Madge was all alone. Oh, Madge, cried Ken, Mr, Allan says, I've got to take you home. Ken Walter Cpolitical speechb-I want reform, I want educational re- form, l want house reform, I want- Fess Fairley-Chloroform. 2C MUTTERS You saw many of the form notables performing in the concert, but modesty prevents us from mentioning their names. We console Allison McDonald, Joyce Norman, and Tony Geisinger who, through illness CPD missed the Easter exams. It's a tough life alright. Even those who were to be in quarantine that week were fooled. They wrote in the sewing room. Tough luck, but remember: First you don't succeed- We see by Mr. Campbell's Book that 2C is still in the running' xfor the greatest number of detentionslips dur- ing the last term, with 2A and 2B as runners up-as usual. fx? -'x lv Cfzg? ,::: ,Ar-17 5? is U J' .

THE PERROQUET 2A PANDEM ON IUM By popular demand-excerpts from The Perroquetn- 2A is a happy throng-when the bell goes, buzz, buzz. The Highlights-they were all dimmed. We won't discuss the details for nooks and crannies some foundj of our sleighing party-enough said. The lunch served was delicious, for verifica- tio11 of this ask Bruce or Maurine. Apparently Don fancies the Scottish lassies-especially those of the Mac- Donald clan. What price popularity? Ask 2A. Teachers have made it a habit for hobbyj of entertaining the lively members of the form at tea parties, where hard work is amply served to all. This original type of entertaining is not relished by the honored few, ask Dot or Eleanor. Seen Around 2A- A scarcity of teachers. Don Matheson replenishing his pea- shooter with a mouthful of rice. Dot Layng wondering what is Wrong with the teachers Cwhat no detention slipsj. Leland Seig-earnestly and illus- tratively discussing the theory of blurping. Isabel Goodal-diligently cracking gum. Jack Carmichael, Bob and Don, fumigating the room by blowing through empty pipes. H.P.C. clan busily discussing the art of charming. John Cargoe-Well, 'tis spring when a young man's fancy turns- Pat Bing- Ex-opera singer chant- ing: I've never been caught before. Ernie- She loves me, she loves me not. Is there a Doctor?- Obviously 2A's wisecraoker has been Inortally afflicted by Dan Cupid- symptoms of the sickness are a dreamy look and a propensity for hanging around 2F. Oh, Doctor, save our Donald. 2B BALLADS Mr. Allan's theme song- They put all the Yeggs in My Basket. 51' Z Ultra Ken Walters- The Lady in Red. Bill McNally: The Farmer Takes a Wife. Evylyn McLachlan - Lovely Lady. Ruth Swartzneld- I Feel Like a Feather in the B1'eeze. Colne hither all ye Centralites, Come stand beside my knee, I'll tell ye of the form party Of dear old form 2B. 2B or not 2B, that was the question. Whether it was nobler for the form to suffer The slings and arrows of indigestion Or to take up books against a sea of troubles And by studying, end them. To stay, to go, To go, and by going to say we end The hours of studying and tribula- tions That studies are heir to. 'Tis a con- summation Devoutly to be wished. To go, we went, 64

The list of dopes and their doings continues, but ho, hum, who cares? The 2F Funny Fairies Frolic The Form of greatest form spirit- nobody contributed but the reporter, and it was terrible. Well, Wade on my Frank 2F stands for two F's, the Funny Fairies. And are we Funny? Yes, sir. Aroon and Harold lead the threaten- ing hordes of wise crackers, which may or may not prove the superiority of mind over matter and vice versa. The Funny Fairies Fashion Form News. One day as Mr. Fyfe came in, a series of howls, chuckles, laughs and other noises was coming from the class. The horrible sounds continued until he said: Alright, alright, which shows us what he thinks of our sly remarks. This Form News would get the gong even in Central-and it does. 2F Funny Fairies F rolic Further- There was a young lady named Min, Who was so exceedingly thin That when she essayed To drink lemonade-- She slipped through the straw and fell in.
