D.M.C. I. BREEZES 73 Watching smoke rings rise in the air— Lazy enjoyment we cannot share!— Listening to radio, song and dance, Wish they’d give us half a chance! From insult unto injury we seeming¬ ly do pass As he turns to me and kindly says, ‘My lass, School days are best, men all agree.” But I don’t; do you? Oh, gee! —A. D.

72 D. M.C. I. BREEZES she gets it. She pulled us through all our baseball games successfully and , so far, our basketball. We may have lost two games of volleyball, but we won one. We were in the final de¬ bates and our class paper received second place. Greta Neal had the highest P.T. marks in the school and Margaret Davis is vice-president of the Junior Glee Club. Miss Smith, thinking we were studying too hard, said a tally-ho would do us good. So away we went “tally-ho-ing.” We Often Wonder— Why Jerry does not like sports. Where Elizabeth learned to play basketball. How Mary sings so beautifully. How Ethel grows so fast. Why Margaret Davis eats so little. From The Breezette— THE HOMEWORK LAMENT When school is ended for the day And we homeward wend our way, Laughing, chatting all the time, Cheerily our voices chime! Oh, how happy we would be If our evenings were but free! Free from homework, toil and care, Free to spend them anywhere! But, alas! we must not think so; From the work we must not shrink so. Teachers say, “Exams are near, Easter-tide will soon be here!” Think we then of business men, Who don’t work from nine till ter.! Our father sits in easy chair, Smoking his pipe. (It doesn’t seem fair!) More Style With every change in Season Holt Renfrew present the newest style trends—authori¬ tatively and exclusively. Prices here are most moderate—a constant reminder that quality and good value go hand in hand. molt, Renfrew Co. LIMITED PATRONIZE OUR ADVERTISERS
