It has been a gala year thus far. f We must not forget to mention the fact that our room contains Eileen Roles, Secretary of the Junior Council, of whose success we are duly proud. Nor could we forget the parties we have had this year, includ¬ ing a tramp, a toboggan party, and a masquerade. Our members have diminished rapidly during the last few weeks, many of our girls having entered the business world, and the rest of us are hoping to follow them shortly. A Gifted Seer was heard to remark a few days ago: “Methinks these girls of Room 15 are not all going to be mere steno’s. I see in the future private secretaries, bookkeepers, prima donnas, a concert-violin-

However, we were soon ushered into the cheery atmosphere of Room 6 and our spirits speedily revived. But what a year was in store for us! Homework! Homework! And more homework! Somehow or other we managed to scrape through with the aid of several parties, and a picnic, at which, although it was not Saturday night, we all received a bath. Then came the June examinations. The majority of us some¬ how or other kept above the water and returned in the autumn to com¬ pose, with the aid of “7” and “11,” Room 15.

Who’s Who—And Why Who keeps the home-fires burning?—Our Engineer. Who holds the highest position in Daniel?—The janitor on the second floor. Who are the Winnipeg cut-ups?—Its barbers. Who makes his way by keeping late hours?—The night watchman. Who has the most pressing work of all?— ' The tailor. Who’s the biggest loafer in town?—The baker. Who is our greatest athlete?— ' Our mathematics teacher. (You ought to see him run up a column of figures.) Who makes all the blunders in Room 15?—The other girl. Who tells the girls of Room 15 where “to get off?’’—The bus driver. —W.C. ROOM 6 As the Breezes’ representative, and one person liable to do the most damage, I have been politely requested to give an account of the terrible sins and crimes of Room 6 during the past term. Room 6 is a ' Commercial class of boys and a Domestic Science class of girls, so we get along famously. Not many fights or quarrels take place, but when they do, the Council of Peace, William Miller and Jimmy Robertson, brings them to a close. Room 6 has an irresistible attraction. Even Joe McCracken can¬ not stay away for more than two days at a time (Saturday and Sunday). ' The inhabitants of Room 6 like most of their subjects, but they find Science very inconvenient at times, especially when their instructor asks the class to bring a skeleton structure of an African elephant or a tap-root system of a pine tree for studying purposes. Much to our regret the school term started a month late last year, and it was with joy and gladness that we tramped back to school on October 1st. However, we skipped over a few months’ work and en¬ joyed a toboggan, snowshoe and house party, a it which nearly everyone attended except Murray Keays, who couldn’t find his toboggan. Christmas came, and to our regret we were compelled to discon¬ tinue our extensive studies for a period of ten days. The after-effects passed, however, and one by one we straggled back to school to continue our very interesting work. And now—Spring has come, and not one of us can resist the temptation to be outdoors at every possible chance—during school hours. One cannot study very well in warm spring weather, and Ron Clement does only two and one-half hours of homework each night, so it says on his report. At the conclusion of the term, those who are fortunate enough to graduate, will pass out of our lives forever, and many a tear will be
