ZM MERCHANTS Edward Maxwell As this is the first year that there has been a second year merchandising class in the Eastern High School of Commerce, most of the teachers are watching us very closely. There are a few athletes in the class, Clumpus, playing junior, and Airey senior baskeijball. Airey also played junior rugby, while Maxwell played senior. Two honour students of the class are Bailey and Edmonds, Bailey having over 82 per cent in the Midfyear exams, while Edmonds had over 70 per cent. Another active person in the class is Nat. Wise' man who plays a banjo in the school orchestra. A PAGE FROM 3A's DIARY Bruce Blandford Monday: Many yawns and nodding of heads, with an occasional loud snore from the far corner. A swim in fourth period, succeeds in rousing a few stu' dents. Tuesday: Some one throws a shoe. A riot starts, and soon the whole class is drawn into the fray. Not content with elastic paper shooters, two stratef gists bring into action a portable howitzer, finner tu-be, with shorthand book or rubber shoes as ammunition., Wednesday: Proceeded 'to auditorium and slumbered through five speeches. exhibif Ab. Tuero makes first public tion of his two famous pieces of art, The Fisherman, and the Lady at the Fountain. Thursday: Whoopee! Midfyear results are posted.

Friday: All talk centred Dance, to be held in GLIMPSES 3B Frank Leslie We started our academic work with the pleasure of having Misses Hunter and Binnington. School work in 3B is a source of delight with their presence, which gives the touch of colour. We wonder why three of our members have such a fondness for Balmy Beach Dance Hall, especially on Saturday nights. Here is the answer to the question, Why aren't the boys as clever as the girls in this school? We have Roy Smith and jack Sawyer as rugby players. jack Walmsley, Arthur Marr and Harry Long are swimf ming champions of the class. The latter two also represented 3B on the Senior Basketball team. Room 204 is also the home office of: Russell Smith, winner of the announcing contest last year. Wil' fred Williams, specialist on the tromf bone, and Crville Pollard who earned third prize in a city oratorical contest. 3C ALPHABET Edith Hamilton A is for Anderson, scream of our class, for Becky who with honours does pass.

3DS6 ACTIVITIES F rank Dennis Mr. Woods decided to let the pupils teach a lesson in literature. Oh boy, what a time! Every one has taught his lesson and heaved a sigh of relief. Only a chosen, or, to be exact, a gifted few will teach in the latter half of the year. The class has now eleoied a Premier, Leader of the Opposition, and Speaker of the House, and Mr. Woods acts as Gov' ernorfGeneral. The two party leaders appointed their followers, and the Speakf er of the House his SergeantfatfArms for somethingj. The S. at A. is supposed to keep law and order. The'Premier, Jack Gill, has been presented with a list of problems with which he and his cab' inet are to deal. What the result of our class government will be yet remains to be seen. 4 3S1 BROADCAST jean Macleod This is form 3S1 speaking from room 211 in Southfeast corner of the Eastern High School of Commerce. Our class is one that participates a great deal in all of the school sports In volleyball after many thrilling games we won the title of Upper School Cham' pions. Also in swimming, basketball and badminton the girls have done their best to uphold the honour of the form. In the first round of the interfform def bates we came off with flying colours, but in the second round, though the girls did their best,. we were defeated. Also a number of our class are in the Girls' chorus and are doing their part to make the School Concert a success. Our Class Paper, namely, 3S1 Loudf speaker, turned out a huge success thanks to the way in which the girls ref sponded. VIGNETTES OF 3SZ Grace Murray Did it ever occur to you: Where Margaret Liesmer got so many brains? Why Alma Campbell always forgets E ighty-two her French book? What Betty Chittenden wrote on her book one shorthand period? Why Misses Davis, Surphlis, and An' thony are so quiet? How Lenore Hague keeps her hair curled so perfectly at the back? How Betty Woods sleeps in school without snoring? How Evelyn Hulbert keeps that School Girl Complexionv? How Doris Hurst is able to take down every letter dictated in shorthand periods? Why Marjorie Horsfall does her ad' ding out loud? How June Philpot always manages to find her place in her book when caught napping by a certain teacher? How Misses Philips and Chittenden got 100 marks in Bookkeeping? 3S3 NEWS Gwen Helliwell In the aquarium of SS3, we have Irene Savage, the Human Fish, and Sadie Aus' tin, the Shorthand Shark. The songbirds of BS3 are Mabel Duke, Lily Semple, Mae Wilson and Joyce Webster. They attend regularly the Glee Club meetings. 3S3's Volleyball team did good work this year. Those whotook part in the games are Sadie Austin, Ruth Taylor, Joyce Webster, Mae Wilson, Della Wrigglesworth, Margaret Clark, Nan Craig, Mable Duke and Lily Semple. Although they lost the final game to 3S1, they played Central Commerce and succeeded in bringing home the bacon, and also a few bumps and bruises. Despite the fact that we students of SSS work very hard every day, we still find time to hold several social events each week-usually in Rooms 102 and 104, at 3 o'clock sharp. 3S4 ROMANCE Vivianne Clarbrough One GRAY day as old BARTHOLOf MEW was strolling by the river BROCKLEBANK, he saw the village CARPENTER busily engaged in mend' ing two TRUNKS.
