TFL. M Uii so cc As she descended the stairs, Barbara heard a subdued hum of voices from the drawing room and wondered who could have called after all: then. opening the door, she entered the room and found it full of fashionably-dressed men and women. On seeing her enter, Mrs. Cox-Richardson rose and remarked to the man seated beside her. Here is Miss Smith at last: I believe we can begin now? With everyone staring at her, Barbara slipped into the nearest chair as the man spoken to rose, gathering up several documents. Instantly. with a shufiiing of feet and a clearing of throats, all attention turned in his direction and he began to read. Only then did it dawn on Barbara that this was the reading of Uncle Paul's will. But still she saw no reason for her presence, and was wondering Whether she was needed as a witness perhaps-she had never . . . and to Barabara Smith the sum of sixty thousand dollars and any of my books that she may wish to have. The precise voice broke into her thoughts with this amazing statement. Barbara glanced up startled. Had she rmlly heard that? It must be right, for everybody was again staring at her. and a sudden buzz of conversation swung over their heads. Through the monotonous reading of the rest of the will. Barbara was filled with gratitude for her friend. With dim eyes, throbbing throat and clenched fists. she recalled the sound of that patient voice saying. Some day I will repay you. He had really done it, and now she would be able to get Dad well again and give Mother a little more enjoyment. -M. PRICE. SHE TASTED PRAISE They gave the golden goblet of success, O'er brimming with the rich Wine of applause: She drank it all, and, filled with happiness, She rose among the stars-and knew the cause. All night she walked the clouds-the Milky Way Was made a scarf for her young shoulders proudg She let the stars by handfuls, as in play, Drip through her fingers-and she laughed aloud. And when, at dawn. on high Olympus' height, She watched the rose-mauve gauzes drift apart. The morning star, of purest silver bright, Came near, and left its light within her heart. -RUTH SHEPARD.

THE ORATORICAL CONTEST The oratorical contest this year was well contested but poorly attended. The poor attendance discouraged the speakers to a great extent, and as a result they did not do their best. Russia proved to be the favourite subject of the speakers, as no lt-ss than three boys spoke on Russia. The girls' contest was as good as the lioys but the speakers seemed again greatly disappointed by their audience. The results were as follows: mai
