THE ROSTRUM 57 Il cherchait quelque chose qui lui rap- pelerait sa maison. Tout a coup il en- tendit un bruit dans la fenetre a Cote de lui. Il ti11t son fusil plus etroitement, et il regarda de l'eelat du soleil a l'obs- seurite de la maison. Une petite fille penehait cle la fenetre et le regardait gravement. -Bonjour, soldat. Vous etes un solclat amerieain. n'c't:'s-vous pas? -Oui. -C'est bon. --Comment savez-vous parler mon lan- gage? dit-il comme il eommenea a rechapper de sa surprise. -jiai appris a parler anglais des voy- ageurs qui passaient par ici. Avez-vous des bonhons? Les autres Americains avaient toujours beaucoup de bonbons. Les Allemands nien avaient pas. Au moins ils ne nous en donnaient jamais. jean ouvrit sa ration et chercha un morceau du chocolat. -Quel age avez-vous? dit-il -Moi, jiai sept ans. Mon petit frere a cinq ans. jiavais un frere aine aussi. je ne sais pas ou est-il. Maman ne me permettra pas de parler de lui. Avez- vous trouve des bonbons? jean donna le Chocolat a la petit lille et la regarda. Elle eut le meme air Comme sa soeur, Ruth. Elle a le meme age aussi. Il aurait aime a savior si Ruth s'etonnait ou fut son frere. -Comment vous appelez-vous? de- manda-t-il a la lille. -julietta. Les autres Americains miap- pelaient julie. Comment vous appelez- vous? --jean. Manquez-vous les voyageurs amerieains, julie? -Mais oui. Ils m'etaient tres gentils, et ils me donnaient beaucoups de choses. je ne sais pas des Allemands. Maman ne me permettait pas d'aller pres dieux. je ne sais pas pourquoi elle me gardait dieux. -Cietait la meilleure chose. -Mais les Americains sont retournes maintenant. Il ne faudra pas que je reste toujours a la maison. -Non. jean pensait ensuite cle Ruth. Elle serait eertainement miserable siil fallait quielle reste toujours a la maison pour se garder dies Allemands. Ou se conduirait-elle eonnne julie siavait conduit? jean ne sut pas. Il fut heureux quiil ne dnt jamais savoir. -Viendrez-vous dans la maison, jean? Maman sera content vous voir aussi. Puis jean entendit l'ordre que le convoi se mit en route ensuite. -je dois aller maintenant, julie. -Retournerez-vous quelque jour et viendrez-vous a me voir et miapporterez- vous plus de bonbons? -je l'espere, mais ne tracassez pas. Il y aura beaueoup diautres soldats et ils auront les bonbons. Le eonvoi se mettait en route. -Aclieu, soldat, et merei beaucoup pour les bonlbons, dit-elle avec un sourire. jean sourit aussi et liagita Ia main. Sois honne. je miarreterai a vous voir et votre famille si je retovrne par cetta route. je pense que je reviendrai bientot. jean marcha le long de la rue a cote du eonvoi. Il ne se sembla pas aussi poussiereux maintenant. Il y avait un gentil vent. Un oiseau ehantait ailleurs. I I mareha vite. Ce fut un peu comme sa maison. Les gens furent a peu pres de meme partout. Il sourit a lui-meme. julie fut eertainement beaucoup comme Ruth. Il penserait souvent a tous les deux. Ce serait un aller et un retour. Kay Lovejoy ,44.

Donna XVelts '44, COMME SA MAISON Le convoi alla lentement par la grande rue du petit village italien. Il fit tres chaud, et la poussiere des cent camions pendit dans liair. jean marcha a cote dfun des camions. Les epaules se pencherent, et il traina les pieds. Ce ne fut pas seulernent parce qu'il fut fatigue, quoi- qu'il nfeusse pas dormi pendant deux jours tandis qulon avaient combattu pour prendre ce village. Non, il ne fut pas fatigue. Maintenant il se fut habitue a co1nbatt1'e. Le convoi s'arreta lentement. -Nous aurons quinze minutes pour nous reposer ici, hurla un oflicier. Faites attention que vous ne marchez pas dans une trappe allemande. lean poussa un soupir et il chercha autour de lui comme la poussiere com- rnenca a se fixer. Les batiments furent construit du pierre et de l,argile. Beau- coup dleux eut les trous des projectiles dans leurs cotes. Les rues furent etroites, et il lui semble que les gens, qui demen- raient ici, n'avaient jamais entendu diun porche. Ce ne fut pas certainment comme sa maison. Cela fut ce qui l,agita.

During the basketball season the club prepared and served a supper, at which the squad of Rosary High School, Hol- yoke, and the home team were entertained. , Although the Homec Club, as has been the way with the other clubs cf C. H. S., has not had many opportuni- ties to hold meetings, We feel that on the whole it has been a success. The girls have got a lot of good and a lot of fun out of it. STUDENT COUNCIL Of course the most important organi- zation in our democratic school is the Student Council. Sixteen members, twelve from the High School and four from the Junior High, are elected by the various classes to represent them in the Council. Mr. Clark is faculty ad- visor. This Council makes decisions confronting the pupils and work for the grncral welfare of the school. This yearis officers were elected as follows: President . ,. . . Maxine Nesbit Vice-President . . Dora Taylor Secretary-Treasurer .. Aylmer Crafts Some of the various things that the Council has brought under way are the appointing of Donna Welts as Head Li- brarian, electing Loraine Lewis as Fi- nancial Secretary of the school, carry- ing on a March of Dimes through which S15 was raised and sent to the President, appointing committees for selling war stamps, and appointing committees to supervise assemblies and socials. The Student Council expects to travel to Augusta this spring to the State Student Council Convention, and there they will get good ideas for the betterment of the school. M. White ,47.
