Das Wirtschaftskomitee. Eine Schule, in der man gerne weilt und studiert, musz rein und ordentlich sein. Als Wirtschaftskomitee haben wir darnach zu sehen, dasz unsere Schule in solchem Zustande ist. Das Einteilen und Regeln der verschiedenen Arbeiten, die dazu gehören, ist Auf¬ gabe des Wirtschaftskomitees. Die Knaben sind in Gruppen eingeteilt und kehren alle Tage die Schulzimmer aus. Die Mädchen besorgen abwechselnd das Staubwischen und das Polieren der Möbel. Auch sorgen die Knaben dafür, dasz stets frisches, kaltes Trinkwasser von einem Stadtsbrunnen herbeigeholt wird. Täglich holen sie auch die Post und bringen sie zur Schule. Das Kommen der Post ist eine Stunde, worauf viele Studenten warten. Es ist eine Zeit, die viel Freude aber manchmal auch Entäuschungen mit sich bringt. Unser Sonntagsschulkursus wurde gut besucht. Dafür zu sorgen, dasz alle Lehrer und Gäste Mahlzeiten und Quartier in den Tagen bekamen, machte unsere Beine laufen. Es war uns eine Freude, mit den Personen von vielen verschiedenen Orten bekannt zu werden. Wir waren froh, auch diesen Dienst für den Herrn tun zu dürfen. George Rempel. Covering Grounds 47

Calendar of the School Year Oct. 29—Registration. Oct. 30—First day of school. “Frohes Wiedersehen.” No. 4—Before coming to school—Two students, Elizabeth Hildebrandt and Jake Olfert unite in holy matrimony. “And they lived happily ever after.” No. 11—Our “Eröffnungsprogramm.” Dec. 4-7—Sunday School teachers’ course; good attendance. Dec. 11—George Reimer comes back from a three weeks’ trip to Mexico. Dec. 14—Mr. Frank Epp speaks on “Youth” at our weekly mission prayer meeting. Quotable Quote: “Man cannot live by bread and football games alone.” Dec. 15—Marie goes home to Leamington, Ont., for her Christmas holidays. Dec. 22—“Familienabend.” Dec. 23—“Weihnachtsprogramm” and Christmas holidays. Jan. 7—Back from our two weeks of supposed leisure. Five new students have joined our ranks in the Halls of Learning. Welcome! Jan. 10—We all looked our very best; pictures taken for the yearbook! This is also the memorable day when Marie most emphatically informed third dass as to what’s Biblical. Mr. Teichroeb, unnoticed, walked in and heard most of it! Now he knows, too! Jan. 14—First “Probepredigt” of the year by Eddie Cornelson. “Well begun is-”?! Jan. 15-17—Examinations to finish off our first term. Jan. 21—Mr. Harry Martens speaks to us on the A.U.G.” degree (Approved unto God). Missions committee shows a most challenging film, “Missionary to Walker’s Garage.” Jan. 22—Mr. Harvey Toews informs us on Voluntary and Summer Service. Jan. 26—The Billy Graham film “Eastward to Asia” shown in our auditorium. That wistful expression on the faces of our third dass students can only mean one thing: they heartily wish they’d seen the film before they wrote their essays on “Evangelism.” Jan. 28—Birthday party and Social sponsored by the Student body in honor of Mrs. and Mr. Rempel on their seventieth and seventy-first birthdays, respectively. Jan. 30—Lenora, Elva and Tina have reached the most crucial stage in second dass, viz., public speech before the dass. That woe-begone look on their faces would touch the most relentless heart—except Mr. Wiebe’s, that is! Jan. 31—A sudden interest is shown by first classers in the book “Bobbsd hair, bossy wives and women preachers.” I wonder, now, could “Exegese” have anything to do with it? Feb. 1—“All through the week.” A beautiful Friday and almost everyone departs for home. “Goodbye, Wa-a-nda!” Feb. 9, 10—Some forty students take a trip to render programs in the “wild and woolly west.” Churches visited are Rivers, Lena, Crystal City and Whitewater. Feb. 16, 17—Another excursion east, to Steinbach, Grunthal, Spencer and Arnaud churches. Feb. 20—A little girl, Linda Marie, has come to take up permanent residence at the home of Mr. and Mrs. H. J. Gerbrandt. Congratulations! Feb. 22-24—Mission Conference. Mar. 2, 3—Programs rendered in St. Elizabeth, Pigeon Lake, Niverville and Springstein. Mar. 4—Third and fourth dass students spend a most enjoyable day visiting C.M.B.C. Mar. 19—Re-yearbook, 1953, “Remember when?” No, we still don’t remember the Monday morning when all the students knew their “Choral” from memory. Mar. 25-29—“Dornen bei den Rosen,” nämlich die Examen. Mar. 30—“Familienabend.” “Es ist bestimmt in Gottes Rat, dasz man vom Liebsten, was man hat, musz scheiden, wiewohl doch nichts im Lauf der Welt dem Herzen, ach, so sauer fällt, als Scheiden. It is with a feeling of mixed emotions that our graduates realize they never again will return to “Elim” as students. But we do thank them for their contribution towards making this a year of wonderful fellowship and adding to our störe of cherished memories. Mar. 31—“Schulszfest.”
