belts, to be cooled, sorted and packed for shipping. It was one of the most interesting processes the Club has ever seen. The girls, too, had an interesting time seeing all types and forms of chocolate and cocoa prepared. As a very acceptable finish each student was given a bag of chocolate samples and a refreshing drink of hot chocolate. Both parties arrived at the Queen's Hotel at 1 p.m. Here they all had dinner together in a private dining-room. The food was excellent and plentiful, and how they ate! Everybody then had a good rest in rooms specially placed at our disposal by the generous hotel management. At 2.30 p.m. we set out on a sight-seeing tour of the city under the direction of two very witty Irish guides. The buses took us right up the mountain to the Westmount Lookout where a wonderful panorama of city, river, land and distant mountains is spread out to view. Other places visited included Brother Andre's famous Shrine, Notre Dame Cath- edral, various parks, and finally the docks where we were shown through the C. P. R. liner, The Duchess of Richmond. We were then allowed two free hours to window-shop and get our own supper Where we wished. By 6.30 we were all rounded up and on board the buses ready for the trip home. At Hawkesbury we stopped for fifteen minutes, and certainly livened up the town. We arrived back at the Collegiate about 11 p.m. after just about the biggest and best day of our lives-a very appropriate Grand Finale to our Science Club year. We are very grateful to our Club sponsor, Mr. Bullock, who arranged all the details ofhthe trip-and there wasn't a hitch any- w ere. The Perth Trip N SATURDAY, May 4, Mr. Bullock and about forty Science Club mem- bers boarded a large O. E. R. coach and headed for Perth, on the Club's first outside trip of the year. We reached our destination about 10.00 a.m. and after making arrangements for dinner at the Perth Hotel, proceeded to the factory of the Perth Shoe Company. There the oflicials divided us into groups, and 'the efficient guide assigned to each group showed us the manufacture of women's shoes from the designing-room to the finished product. The factory is a large one and we were in- formed that there were more than 11,000 pairs of shoes in the process of manufacture. We then walked a short distance to the J ergen-Woodbury plant, where soaps, creams and cosmetics are manufactured. Here the head chemist showed us the plant in its entirety, the girls being especially interested. Most of us managed to procure samples of the various soaps as we went along. ' The next stop was the Perth Hotel, where we were served an excellent meal, followed by a few impromptu speeches from Club members. After dinner we had an hour and a half to do as we pleased and the majority took this opportunity to see the town. About 4.30 p.m. we re-assembled at the Perth Hotel and returned to Ottawa feeling we had had a very worthwhile and enjoyable trip. . - Pk wk Pk When I feel like exercising, I just lie down 'till the feeling goes away.

In the near future it expects to visit Beach Foundries, Connor Washers and the Canada Cement Plant. In addition, plans are being worked out for trips to Cornwall and Montreal. To finance these out-of-town trips the Science Club sponsors various activities. This year it has been host to the students at a moving-picture show and has arranged after-noon dances and the annual Science Club Dance. In conclusion it may be stated that the club, which came into existence through the initiative of Mr. Bullock, could not have continued to exist without his splendid support as sponsor.

Sk S4 all The Montreal Trip T 6.30 a.m. of June 8th in a drizzling rain, 65 members of the Science Club ' with undampened spirits, left the Collegiate in two de-luxe buses for Montreal. Lead by our musical assistant-sponsor, Mr. McGregor, and our leather-lunged redoubt- able president, Joss Gordon, we engaged in lusty sing-songs and yells for the greater part of the way. This, no doubt, helped to chase the rain away for the sun was shining brightly long before we reached the first toll-bridge. About 10.30 a.m. at Montreal West a halt was made to re-arrange the gang. Forty boys in charge of Mr. Bullock piled into one bus and visited the nearby Con- sumers' Glass Factory, while all the girls and some boys along with Mr. McGregor proceeded almost across the city to the Fry-Cadbury Chocolate plant. Both parties were very courteously re- ceived and the various processes shown and explained in detail. The boys saw bottles of all sizes and shapes made. Theytraced the procedure through fromithe raw Ingred- ients of broken glass, special sand, borax, etc., to the great gas-fired furnaces from which the molten glass flows out Intog the blowing moulds. From these the red-hot bottles were carried away on huge moving Lux GLEBANA Page 59
