D. M. C. T. BREEZES 33 Dorothy Hilton, the comfort of every teacher’s heart, is always ready with an answer, he it right or wrong. We certainly enjoy Ruth Hornibeck’s frequent visits to the class room between attacks of colds, etc., and sincerely bemoan her absence when illness prevents her attending. Evelyn Hull and Loretta Moyse have become noted for their sonorous voices which bellow through the room, bringing back to life with a start the dozing students. Beatrice Deeks surprises vis all by the amount of knowledge she acquires considering that she does not arrive until half the day’s work has been completed. In acquainting you with the members of our class we should not forget to mention Catherine Turpie and Ellen Vosper, our “star pupils,” who uphold the reputation, which we all hope to live up to in June. —E.W., 24.

D. M. C. I. BREEZES 32 Next we see ambling along Little Willie, or we mean Mr. Quayle— Bill is the only original wise-crack artist in the game. Don’t look, but there is the famous Irish clansman, Geo. Clawncy (Clancy). Georgie sure is a wmllop with the girls. How do you do it, Georgie ? Next we have our only student, L. Locke. Then we have the Evasive J. Hamel, and J. Meara, the wise old man. Again, we have Elmer Ross; his hair is to the women as a light is to moths—looks to us like the business end of a blow torch. We also have with us Alfred Johnston, our arch-Mikadoen—per¬ haps this guy can’t sing—perhaps! —K.A.M.S., 55. The better half of Room 55 will now tune in. Talking about base¬ ball, how about Clara Bjornson? Can she swing a mean bat? Zowie! And surely you’ve heard about Marie Mclnnes and Maria Jonsson —anyway you must have heard of Galli Curci, well it was Marie and Maria who taught her all she knows about singing. As for Gertie Chandler, talk about your debaters! I believe it was she who started that “unaccustomed as I am to public speaking” business. Then how about Pat Swinford? The way she slings the ball across the plate is just nobody’s business. And maybe weTe not proud of May Kennedy. I’m here to tell you the ' Seniors sure showed their “gray matter” when they elected May on the Council. —V.B. ROOM 24 The class officers of Room 24 are as follows: President, Jean Treble; Secretary, Kathleen Todd; Sports Captain, Florence Pepper: Committee, Jean Robinson, Catherine Turpie; Breezes representative, Ellen Warford; successful candidate for Senior Council, Kathleen Haney. Now let me introduce you to some of the members of our class. The girls of the Practical Arts group, namely, Doris Henderson, Evelyn Moir, Margaret Grimwood, Elsie Beck, Margaret Evans, Kath¬ leen Todd, and Eleanor Hendrickson, are.recommended to make effic¬ ient and practical housewives, being thoroughly acquainted with the art of meal planning and budget making. This is a hint which should be appreciated and remembered. However, Home Economics is not the only branch of school work in which the members of our class have achieved fame. Theresa Diner, Florence Pepper, Oliva Breckman, and Lillian Butler, are our outstand¬ ing athletes and deserve special mention because of this, although their abilities extend in other directions also. We might mention various other accomplishments, among them Lillian’s marked brilliance in all literary work. Jean Robinson, a scientific shark, is a source of great delight in P.T. periods on account of her enthusiasm.
