BETTER ENGLISH The ship, Better English, has landed safely on the isle of February, and Miss Spencer, commander-in-chief, has allowed the army on board shore leave, only one condition, that they use better English always. The ship, sailing through this term, encountered bad weater, sharks, dangerous reefs, and everything imaginable to turn her out of her course, but she got through safely with a majority of her cargo still undamaged. Alas and alack! The wounded soldiers were not given the privilege of going to the exciting baseball game between the Better English teams. Don't let the errors get the best of you while you are on leave. P. T. A. The P. T. A. of this term has had two executive meetings and one regular meeting. An evening meeting was also held in january, Sargeant johnson being the speaker. The officers of the association consist of Mrs. Sarah Wil- lingham, president, Mrs. Helen Moxley, first vice-president, Mrs. Anita Vacher, second vice-president, Mrs. Margaret E. Murdoch, secretary, and Mrs. Mary Barnes, treasurer.
