LEST WE FORGET The Junior High School students of Earl Grey assembled at St. Lukes Anglican Church to observe Rememberance Day. A beautiful and deeply moving program had been especially prepared for us. Joyce Jar- owski and Brenda Stevenson read the parable of the good Samaritan. The choir sung a lovely and beautiful hymn 0 Brother Man, Fold to Thy Heart Thy Brother. Mr. White read the Honour Roll. A two minute silence was followed by the Last Post. The quiet and beauty of the service will linger in our memories. Avon Holland — Room 13. THE SCIENCE CLUB A science club was organized by Mr. C. F. Smith, our science teacher, in the last week of Febru¬ ary, consisting of eleven boys from grades eight and nine. Meetings were held in Room 10.on Fridays at noon. The chief project of the year was a science display com¬ posed of a series of experiments presented before the school and the public attending the variety concert. Other accomplishments of the year were experiments with light and microscopic work. Fred Dampier — Room 13 — Gr. 9- 31

In charge of the Sea Shanty scenes were Mr. Lawson, Mr. Guy and Miss Crook- shanks. The girls were dressed in gaily coloured old fashioned costumes, and the boys wore sailor outfits. The Sea Shanty consisted of songs and dances. Rooms 22 and 15 put on the play ' The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. The cast under Mr. Patterson’s direction did a fine job. A group of boys under the super¬ vision of Mr. Labovich did a series of tum¬ bling acts. Miss McVeigh had a group of boys and girls square dancing and Joan Lounsbury sang a western song and played her guitar. Jack Olinkin and Ricky Kidd did three Homer and Jethro comedy acts. The audience roared with laughter as the boys did a very good job of their parts. Some young scientists under the direction of Mr. Smith put on a number of ex¬ periments. These were both educational and interesting. We would like to extend our appreci¬ ation at this time to the members of the staff, Miss Hodgson, Miss Crookshanks, Mr. Lawson and Mr. Guy, and all the boys and girls who helped make the concert a success.

The Canteen was organized in the fall and has speedily improved under the leadership of Elizabeth Squires, and Bob Lazaruk, the vice-president. Much help has also come from the other members of the executive, Brenda Stevenson - secretary, Julie Spilchak - treasurer, and Geri Torack and Garry Okospki - social representatives. We wish the best of luck to ' The Cools , Dave Young, and Garry ’Satchmo’ Okopski a swell bunch of guys who played on several occasions at our Canteen. We also wish to thank Mr. Dolman and Mr. Nelson and the parents for all the kind co-operation in mak¬ ing our Canteen a success.

Every 24 hours, 12,000 98 pound bags of flour are made. 25,000 bushels, which is equal to 15 carloads of wheat is ground into flour each day. 2 inch metal ropes control the power on all eight floors of the mill. There are wooden columns all over the mill which have inside them buckets which carry thousands of bushels of wheat per hour. The flour is sifted through a number el2 cylinder which is finer than a silk stocking. There is $50,000.00 worth of silk used for these screens in the factory. A machine called a gravity separator takes any dust out which happens to be in the cream of wheat. Dust is sucked out of the flour by fans and put in bags, which are sent down to the main floor. The wheat is all washed before it is milled. The three main things done in the mill are: 1. storing, 2. cleaning, 3- pre¬ paring. There is one man in the mill who does nothing but oil the different machines all day long. It is said to be good milli ng when they have no flour in the bran. Jean Cooper — Room 27.
