THE NORTHLAND ECHO 63 Mr. Firth would die of fright .Our answers scare him so. But through it all we stand intact, United in a group. Our fame is an established fact In the intellectual loop. When our successors read this poem In a thirtieth century storm They will compare with Caesar's Rome The fame of our Fifth Form. Miss Duff: Does this train stop at South River, conductor? Conductor: Well, if it doesn't there'll be quite a splash. Parashat: Miss Hamer: How do they make the silk of a parachute strong enough to support the weight of a jumper. Russ. Stephenson Cundertonel They feed the silkworms spinach! XA COMM. MISS A. WALKER MARION FERGUSON, Rep. Two girls standing in the corridor having a little chat. Miss Gardner has a special crush on I. O'Hare. How come? She wanted her to stay after four so they can walk arm in arm around the corridors. Miss Walker, talking to Iris Stevenson: What happened to your arm, Iris? I fell and sprained it yesterday. I think that's just as bad as a break, don't you.', I don't knowg I haven't tried that yet. IIA CommerciaI's Overseas Box During the month of October and Novem- ber the pupils of IIA Comm. have experienced the joy of preparing an overseas box. They put forth every effort to assist the issue. There is one point which I wish and must emphasize and that is IIA's knitting. It is lovely. Scarves, wristlets, and socks have literally been pouring in. The knitting shows pains-taking care. They have done and I am sure that they are still doing marvellously with their war work. Into our box went food, knitted articles, to- bacco and shaving articles. We fully intend to send out another box later on and it will be even better than the first. We only hope that Sapper Robert Colyer, to whom it was sent, en- joys receiving it as much as we have enjoyed collecting and packing t.he material. BY ERIN L1-:E Between you and me Going into Mr. Baker's room one day, found broken-hearted written in extra large letters on the board.

Louie Nunner grows two inches. Cecil Cole starts to shave. Moe Otto comes to school on time. Rodney McAuley's hair turns white. Beryl Enborg does her homework. Lorne Smiley is either the Outdoor Boy or Fresh Air Fiend . He likes the windows open. Robert Gillies wants to know if the flight of time is speeded by the spur of the moment. Why do all the female teachers call Grant Darling by his first name? XI COMM. MR. J. E. BAKER Eleanor Rennick, Representative. 1940-41 Wanted: Wanted by Jack White Some one to love, Some one to kiss and caress, Some one who'll keep all my buttons sewed on, And see that my clothes are in press.
