Then at last, on a lovely spring day, April 15, Mr. Van de Wat-er handed a bright new spade to Mr. Moon to turn the first sod. The people who had worked so hard and waited so long for the new addition could visualize it already erected. This is a great day for us, said Mr. A. M. Snider, head of the Building Committee and chairman of the sod-turning ceremony. For fifteen long years we have waited for this moment. Twin City mayors Brown and Hilliard expressed their pleasure at the new addition, and both agreed that it would be a day to look back upon with satisfaction. Sharing in the ceremony, officials of the schooQ board, Mr. Ziegler, and Charles Greb, president of the Students' Council, wielded the spade. Led by Mr. Ziegler, three cheers and a tiger were given to the school board who had worked tire- lessly to make the project a reality. Another cheer of approval greeted the announcement that the remain- der of the day was to be a holiday in honour of the event. Shortly after students had rushed to their lockers, a bulldozer slowly moved the auto shops, and the noise of hammers and crow-bars could be heard tearing down the old house which had been converted into class-rooms. Room was being made for the new, spacious, well-equipped addition. The sod turned! Soon the corner- stone!

It can't be! . . . but it was, . . . singing advertisements in Latin! Then Johnny's face brightened for coming from the radio now was the sound of a man's voice. Why, he hasn't changed a bit, he thoughtg he talks the same now as he did back in 1946. I'll bet that's . . . His convictions were confirmed when he heard coming from the radio . . . on tonight's programme was Mr. J. E. Boonus from Lexing- ton, Kentucky ! Finally a waiter approached Johnny's table and waited. A perfectly natural thing for a waiter to do, Johnny thought, but then he realized that he was expected to order something. Hastily he grabbed for the menu and with some embarrassment pointed to Adulescens Eiusdemque Occiso Annosf' The waiter looked at him rather queerly and then retreated to the kitchen where he bawled Meat balls on one! Just then Johnny realized he would have no money with which to pay for his meal, and so rose rather quickly, and made his way to the door. He just made it, when in his excitement he tripped and fell heavily to the floor amidst a roar of laughter. Johnny Jones Z Johnny looked up meekly at his Latin teacher. Since you find these classes so dull that they put you to sleep perhaps we could find something to interest you after four! Young man, report to my room at four o'clock! Yes Ma'm. Johnny said as he crawled dismally ,back into his seat. 6,0111 pl i111 ents . Canada Cabinets and Furniture Limited KITCHENI-IR. Oxrxmo

The weasel shot for the soft unprotected throat of his adver- sary. But the heavy loose hair which the marmot still retained from the previous winter served also as a protection from the weasel's sharp white teeth, and he tugged and twisted furiously with- out doing any serious damage. The marmot's greater size gave her an advantage and she forced her opponent back against the rear of the den, until he was forced to free his jaws from the mass of fur. The vengeful mother renewed her grip on the weasel's fore-quarters. worrying and shaking the strug- gling creature until her teeth met with a crunch on his backbone. The lithe struggling body suddenly went limp. It gave one convulsive quiver that ran from the head right through to the tip of the tail, and then lay still. The mother, releas- ing her hold, cast a longing glance at the dead foim of her young one lying beneath the body of the weasel. Nemesis had been swift. The peace-loving marmot hurried from this place of death. Wearily she made her way up the cliff and rejoined her family in the snug hollow at the base of the trees. During the night the storm broke. The clouds parted and the stars sparkled brightly once more in the trees. The moon appeared and bathed the grey rocfts. the tree-tops, and the rushing river in a soft silvery light. Peace had re- turned to the cliff-dwellers. Cmnpliliie-rits nil K fffffff ff we f DISTINCTIVE CLOTHES tform-1' Que-eu and llulu- Str:-vis - lxitrlwmw'
