92 D. M. C. I. BREEZES driver could not help them and drove on. Soon a RutherFORD came up and the driver, who introduced him¬ self as Mr. Firth, saw at once that they were out of gas and told them that the ALEXANDER garage was on the comer of WILLIAM and GOWER. They did not know the district very well and the first attempt found them at MAC GREGOR and STEFANSON, just opposite the firm of HEWITT- SON JONES. They asked another passerby for directions, and once again set out to locate the much- needed gas. Arriving there, they saw that the garageman was REIDing the evening paper and the boy was rubbing some SLOANS Liniment on his dog’s sore foot. They thought they would try HOCKEN some gas, but the boy saw them and told his father, who made them DEALY over the money for it, and while a very dejected and embarrassed group left the yard the man patted his boy on the back and said, “WAT-a-SON!” Our friends took the gas back to the car and put it in while the boy combed his un-KEMP hair and said, “Well, so FINNIE our little adven¬ ture, and HOWE!”—Murphy. L. EDWARDS. ROOM 50 Much credit is due to “dear old 50” for the athletes we have turned out. Our volleyball and basketball teams have won many of the games they played. In many of the sports we have had one or more representatives. Harold Mitchell, Jack Thompson and Dan Wood were on the school football team. On the hockey team, Harold Mitchell played many splendid games and Alvin Tracy was on the primary basketball team. Dan Wood was our Manitoba Summer Srljonl July 4th to August 15th, 1931 Under auspices of UNIVERSITY OF MANITOBA and DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION University Courses in Arts and Science; Graduate Courses in Educa¬ tion; Grade XII and First Class Professional Courses; Courses in Music, Fine Arts and Speech Arts; Special Courses in Primary Meth¬ ods and Senior Public School Methods; Special instruction in French and Latin of Grade XI and in Mechanical Drawing of the Pre-Engi¬ neering Year.

D.M.C.I. BREEZES 91 structive crew, or the humorous his¬ tory periods and habitual gum-ehew- ers and maybe add the twenty-four French failures. But such is school life as we know it. We regret to inform you that the changes made in the classes lost to us several of our most talented mu¬ sicians, sportsmen and A1 students, and also our heralded Rip Van Win¬ kle, known to us as Ralph Dick. But we seem to have imported excellent material for all uses, especially talk¬ ing, like Bill Simpson and his Irish friend Tim, and since fair exchange is no robbery, I’m sure we’ll get along fine. Our athletic pupils organized a game of hockey and as usual the un¬ fortunate party was ready with ex¬ cellent alibis. And, finally, the Junior Hop was well attended by forty-eighters, who all thoroughly enjoyed themselves. And so, with Mr. McLeod at its head, forty-eight feels worthy of be¬ ing well in the running in all under¬ takings, as in the past. BOB WYBROW. ROOM 49 Murphy and Jamieson were walk¬ ing along the LOWE highway when they saw their friends, the VICAR’S wife AND-ER-SON, CUMMING along in a magnificent BLOWER super-six car which had an exceptionally long HOOD. DIS-SON was whistling a BLYTHE air, but when he saw the two boys he stopped long enough to explain that the car had KLETKE upholstering and was finished in ma¬ hogany and BURCH. They asked if they would like a ride home and Mur¬ phy got out to TURNER over, but failed. The party sat down on the curbstone to wait for some passing motorist to help them out of their difficulty. The first car that passed was an old MAXWELL, but the JpHNE shoes properly fitted compliment and are a needed ac¬ cessory to the new mode. Of outstanding smart¬ ness are the new mod¬ els of imported Czecho Sandals. MacLeod’s Eclipse pure food products are made in Winnipeg—no better are made any¬ where.

D.M.C.l. BREEZES 93 representative on the school swim¬ ming team. We are proud of these hoys and we hope we will do as well in the Inter- High Track Meet. Due to considerable changes in our room, we have held no social activi¬ ties. However, we hope to get to¬ gether before the term has ended. Officers — President, E. Leveille; Vice-President, C.

We are above par, So heed us when we say: Our class officers are: President, Grace Downie; Secretary, Sheila Co¬ hen; Sports Captain, Doris Searle; Librarian, Marjorie Hill. Another notable personage is our class moni¬ tor, who is no other than Alice Cameron. Although the term is about over, we have had, so I believe, “one” class party. Among those present were the Honorable Students of Room 28 who, we believe, had a fairly good time. It has been rumored that we “may” have a theatre party. You can get other particulars from any of the pupils in June. Of course, as we have so many industrious students in our room we find it quite impos¬ sible to have “too many” parties, as it tends to draw attention from work. Before this station signs off, the class join with me in a hearty vote of thanks to Miss Clarke, who has done everything in her power to make this term a success. N. MEADE. . . Compliments of . .
