The girls hope to learn how to colour their pictures before the emi of the school year. SKIING This vt-:ii saw an unprecedented suc- ciss for the ski enthusiasts in the school. The skiers had several successful moon- light hikes. The most important thing as far as we are concernwil is that our skiers won the Central Ontario Interseholastic Ski Charn- I pionship Meet by virtue of having the most points in the final standing. All the more credit is due them because they took a very small team to Huntsville where the meet was held. However wr take an added interest in the Noi-them Ontario and Ontario Championship Ski Meets because the members of the team were much to the fore in both. At the interscholastic events at I-Iuntsf ville, Jim XVyatt won the senior slalom, the combined downhill and slalom and placed eighth in the cross-country. Fred Beattie won the senior jumping, the C0111- bined jumping and cross-country, placed third in the senior slalom and fifth in the senior downhill. Jack Durrell tied for first place in the intermediate downhill, took second in the cross-country and fourth in the jumps. Phil Owen took second spot in the senior downhill. Phil also placed second in the senior jumping and fourth in the cross-country to give him second ranking in the combined jumping and crossecountry. Don Beattie, junior, was third in the combined jump- ing and cross-country. Jim Doc Wyatt, number one mem- ber of the team, had a little tough luck at the Ontario meet but emerged from the contests at Temiskaming as senior slalom champion of Northern Ontario.

THE COOKING DEPARTMENT A word of commendation should be said for Miss Bennett and the girls of the Vocational Department who on several occasions provided refreshments at school functions. Among thcse were Commencement, the District Oratorical Contest, the Annual School Play. the School Dance. the Hockey Banquet. and the Rugby Banquet. The chief project of this department was the dinner served for the Regional Conference of the O.S.S.T.F. On all these occasions a great deal of labour was involved, The cordial thanks of the entire school is due Miss Bennett and the girls for their splendid efforts. THE DEBATING SOCIETY Miriam Schneebalg, IIIA Coll. In our school, there actually exists a society which not only affords pleasant afternoons to its members but also helps them considerably when it comes to giving oral compositions. This is the Debating Society. This year under the able leadership of Miss L. Hamer and our president, Ross Charlton. we progremed considerably. The members although not numerous could without exception announce in their turn the weekly meetings, to the assembled school, without any noticeable agitation. Current events were debated by all with a will and our enunciation was improved by the numerous drills in rhythm. There were also the spelling matches and quiz programmes, during which the members tried their best, as if their lives depended upon it. Two members, Sadie Hockman, winner of the Verse Speaking Contest, and Ezio Cappadocia, champion of the Northern Ontario Oratorical Contest, brought honor to the Debating Society and proved its n r'. ie it Our sincere thanks go out to Miss L. Hamer, who gave her valuable aid during critical times and who .never spared us encouragement. 0 qc
