49. msn sy ,gg Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves Many years ago there lived in Arabia, a poor man called Ali Baba. One day while Ali was searching for fuel, he came upon a band of robbers leaving a cave. As he listened he heard them say, Close, Sesame. After they left, Ali Baba, remembering the words of the robbers, went to the cave and said, Open, Sesame. The door of the cave opened and Ali Baba entered. Inside he found treasure of every kind. Before he had time to take any of the treasure, obstacles began to confront him. He had forgotten the magic words. And to make matters worse, the robbers had returned. Ali Baba was caught. But by careful planning and study, and with the help of Morgiana, his comrade, Ali Baba overcame each of the forty thieves, and gained his share of the vast treasure. The magic words stood fixed in his mind. The door to the coveted chamber opened to his command. Thus Ali Baba became happy. His fellow men recognized him and he gained his rightful place in life. Each student of our school is an Ali Baba, a gay adventurer, who, aside from his daily work, finds time to pause and Search in the great cave of activities, for his share. It is hard to gain admittance to the coveted cave, for one must possess the magic words that open the door. Like Ali Baba, he must overcome each obstacle separately, then is the treasure available. Ali Baba was not greedy. He took what treasure he needed, each student should also take only those activities which he can manage. Thus the door of activities is open to you! Enter and take your share! 'MXM Qa.!'X,lSi'Q.l'X,l'X 'iawwazlaii
