'll Ili .X'lJRAIAl-l'TE .yd f-G53 LQ CLASS B-Retro-Spectus Class B are we, peppy too, No one can accuse Class B of lacking dramatic ability or of being Brainy, fully. never blue. T must have been an inspiration which came to the one who wrote our class yell and described us thus. Class B's motto is, Silence is Colden, but the reputation we have gained seems to belie this for we are known as 'ithe noisiest class in the history of the Winnipeg Normal School. Never mind, when we have had some thirty-two years teaching experience we may be more sedate and not so peppy. That first day at Normal, September oth, ic,z7, is one never to be forgotten. The hearty welcome by the staff and the members of Class D forms a pleasant background for all our happy memories of the year. The formality with which we greeted the members of our class soon wore off and we are now friends. The machinery of our classroom has been operated very smoothly under the control of the following capable officers: Mr. liARL CH,xMBERs, President. Miss MILDRED BuR'r, Vice- Presitlentg lN4R. JOHN ODDSTAD, Secretary. They have been supported by Miss ANNE DICIKISON and MR. JoN LAXDAL and the Literary committee, headed by our youthful dramatist, MR. PETERKIN. Class B has taken second place to none in the matter of sport, though we may not have won many games. Led by Mr. LEWIS WALKER and Miss Dixvir-Qs we have stood side by each in the battle against other classes in basketball and curling. To be sure the basketball often turned out to be a basket bawl lwhen we discovered that the score was against usp but we exhibited our ability toi Play the game and play it fairly, llfleel the otlals against you squarely. l take it that it would be a wise inference that Class B has made a name for itself in social activities also. Gur class parties held on October oth, November ibth, iozy, and February 24th, and March z3rd, ioz8, were to say the least great successes. The auditorium was attractively dressed in our colors, blue and silver. Young hearts were happy as we danced Sir Roger de Coverlyn and l-lobo l-lop -a rather mixed medley. backward in displaying it.

JoHN ODDSTAD, and MR. CARL SIMONSON contributed their genius to the success of the school play, The Torch-Bearersf' They tried to make a confirmed cockney out of the woman with the wink. Ch! classes A, C, D, E, dont you wish you had to your credit the pride of performance that we have had in our Lits7 On October oth, we portrayed Swinburns Making of Man. lf you wish to see the perfect man who arose after all our endeavors, lock at Mr. Walker. Our nightingales, Miss BRINDLE and Miss BURT supplied the rest of the programme. November ioth saw the presentation of tableaux of famous pictures. We really must congratulate the audience who either knew or guessed the names of these. We won't mention any wrong guesses. And oh! the Melting Pot and Clementine In the former, the various nations were mixed as metals in their fusion and Miss Canada arose. The latter, Clementine, was-well, funny would be a very inadequate word for it. Need it be said that the members of Class B are all out to succeed as teachers? No. We can only look ahead, and should some of us in the future be able to make a lasting contribution to the teaching pro- fession we will be glad to reflect a good deal of the credit on our teachers, and particularly on lX4iss MCLEOD, our class teacher. XVe might say much of what the future will hold but we'll leave it at that. H0 l l l A Sv.: Twenl 3'
