62 As usual, Mr. Gibson had heard about the idea and had warned Miss Ewing She was ready waiting for us, even had the waste paper basket emptied so that it would be sure to hold the gum, Oh, my goodness! It s nearly midnight and I still haven't chosen a topic. Oh well, I'll just get up early toemorrow morning, and write it before I go to school?

61 There's Always Tosmorrow by Mary Lanktree Gr, XII Yes! I, too, heard.that statement WAn essay will be handed in two weeks from toedayn. But did I pay any more attention to it than to let the thought linger in the back of my mind? Of course not. True, I remembered that the dead line was approaching, but there was always toe morrow coming. u As the last night has so quickly arrived, I suppose it is time that I should commence the ordeal. I am quite comfortable, reclining in an easy chair, the radio close by, and a dish of candy at my side, Since this thing has to be done toenight, I guess I'd better choose a topic and get 'crackingos Now, if I could think up a good excuse I wouldn't have to hand my essay in until later. I could tell Miss Kidd that I'd had a headache, but then she'd say I should have had it written before the last night anyway. That would be all the sympathy I'd get from her. Or maybe I could say that we had had company galore on the weekeend, but Miss Kidd always says we should have enough will power to make ourselves do our homework, so that wouldn't take any longer to write the comp than to think up a good excuse, Now, whoever could write an essay on neckties? I will admit that plenty could be said about some of them. The one that Ike Mitchell wears! Why it's practically a chapter by itselfl With that horrid snake on the front of it, I can almost imagine it taking a bite out of his throat Y It must be quite harmless as nothing has happened yet, And that bright red one I see flashing down the hall ever so often 2 I suppose his girl friend has him wear it so shenll know for sure it's he. 'Noses and Ears' Q why they are such small features that no one pays much attention to them! Noses cost girls plenty though, they have to keep that dull finish on them. But ears are either too big, or too small, or else they stick out too far, Most of them work all right, though, regardless of how they look. Here's a good topic, 'Persuading Father'. If that wasn't such a wide subject I could write on that, Poor father! He thinks he has ten dollars slipped away to buy a new saw, but when he looks, it's gone. Oh yes, he'd wondered where I had gotten the wherewithal to buy that new skirt. Incidentally, I run a sort of one way charge account with him. I borrow but never pay back, And his opinion on my new coat! I probably shouldn't tell about father's troubles, I'll see if there is something else I can write about, I wonder what about 'Apologies to the Teachersn, It probab- ly wouldn't hurt some of us to make a broad confession of some of the stunts we've tried to pull Q like the day all of grade eleven went marching into their home room, chewing gum for dear life. However, the effect was spoiled.

when we crossed the border into the States, Jean Clowes - Grade Twelve Home Ee. Trip to Rochester Q 4-.Cm Guam gg., by Edith de st. Aubyn XII WWe're offiu Yes that was our cry when Miss McPhedran and Mr. Cline left the school with grade twelve Home Economic girls for a trip to Rochester U.S.A. Mr. Cline led the way to Brampton but there Miss McPhedran took the lead. we were thinking about all these poor students getting out of school. was asked where she was born. Do you know that she couldn't remember. That's just how excited we all were. Everything had gone well until then. WWhat's that sme1l?W Miss MePhedran asked. Wlt must be rubber. Oh my gracious therels a flat tired. Mary Lanktree wanted to be of some help so she offered to work the jack. IPm.sorry to say that she didn't have to, because a truck driver fixed the tire for us. When Mr. Cline came back we continued on to a garage where all the necessary repairs were made. V Little happened until we reached Rochester. Ted, Mr. Cline's brother, met us and we were escorted to the Y.W.C.A. What interested us most here were the elevators, the type which you operate yourself. Of course, many of us made unnecessary trips from floor to fl0Cro Bang? Rattle! Itfs a miracle that the management of the NYU didnft give us orders to be more quiet. we made quite a noise at our night gossip circles and our midnight snacks. I suppose they knew that we weren't going to stay long. U On Saturday the group separated into pairs and we started our shopping excursion. I think we must have bought everything image inable. My advice to everyone is to take twice the amount of money you think is necessary and then maybe youull have a penny or two left. After coming back from shopping some watched television, others rushed to the recreation room where they played such games as pingepong, and the rest ran from.room to room. These activities seemed to cause many of us to be hungry, so we headed for a restaurant. we were surprised to find that the exeellent food we ordered was quite reasonable with our purses. Saturday night found us sitting in the balcony of a theatre. I forget what the nam of the show was. After the show we raced home in the rain. Thus you see that it rains in Rochester as well as in Orangeville. ' A slumber party was our entertainment Saturday night - I should say Sunday morning. Posted at the door was Marg to warn us when Jean D. and Miss MePhedran were coming. We packed ourselves into the closets. As usual there was plenty to eat and lights didnnt go out until after 2.15 a.m.
