Ninety-eight Y SPECIAL ISROOM 208 Betty Huser has a sense of humour to help her over rough spots, namely, in the short- hand transcription exam., writing about a cake instead of a cape and asserting she could get one made to measure. .-Klan Sharpe obtained the place of honour in our excuse list by saying, I had-um-a lot of correspondence to attend to.'l Geraldine 3IcLaughlin's amiable nature seems to put her one excuse, 'KI haven't got it done, over extremely well. Kay Provan encourages those short in sta- ture, by telling that after an absence she's never missed by the teachers, which is rather helpful. To future French classes we leave the one answer that fits all questions, Ie ne sais pas . Familiar words: Vous allez tomber. Taylor, je pensef' Edith Kerr found herself in an embarrass- ing situation recently. During bookkeeping period, she was asked if she had brought a note and thinking she had been asked the next question answered: I haven't quite fin- ished writing it yet. An explanation, how- ever, smoothed matters over. We wonder what attraction lies in the audi- torium at 8.30 a.m. To a future Special 1, we leave one line of poetry which is especially apt when doing homework, The night is far spent. the day is at hand. -,IOSEPHINE WI.-XRNEY, SPECIAL TWO FORM NEWS How cha do!!

I was left in deep thought. which remained with me for the balance of the day. Special Three is not a form to declare loudly its fine characteristics, but we have some. Deeply buried in room 311 are many fu- ture geniuses: you may laugh but we have what it takes. We have humour, expecially in the north-east corner: we have red-headed. gray matter . la male member girls.l We have dignity presiding at the front: we have friendliness throughout the room. and good, good school spirit adopted towards our adopt- ed school for the year. FLORENCE Ranroan TI-IE CO-OPERATIVE CLASS IN RETAIL MERCHANDISING People have more fun than anybodyf, IYith this idea in the back of their minds. a group of students and teachers got together to form the sixth Co-operative Class in Re- tail Merchandising. After careful thought ani' consideration, the personnel of the class wa decided upon and work commenced. Outside of solely scholastic endeavour, the chief work of the class was the organization of a Merchandising Club. and the organiza- tion and production of the Class's Annual Demonstration and Display. Both matters have been dealt with successfully. The Dis- play on February IS. was an unqualified success. Indirect and modern lighting was featured this year. Out of the large group who commenced the class, only Eda Davies. Freida McKenzie, -lean Scott, Paul C. Attallah and Earle S. Dillon remained to organize and produce the Display. I E.-tR1.E S. DILLON.
