94 Gln 'Echoes Torm III fllnbustrial ffsrts LADIES and gentlemen, I present you wit.h a scene in a Collegiate supper club. Standing at the left as you enter is the head waiter, Arthur ltlillard. For a dollar tip he will sneer and cross his arms. For a ten dollar tip, he will smile and cross his mother. Down in front is Bill Harris who is having supper with Jean Blewett. a follies baby. Raymond Collet. flirting a bit, has just entered with Alma Moffat. who seems a trifle annoyed. At the first table are Har- old Choate, Alma llilburne 3.l1Cl Bob Doig. Bliss hlilburne is actually smiling at one of Bobby's stories, which proves she can be polite under any circumstances. At the next. table are Alex Thorne. Edna Revoy and Clarence Collins. Behind Stewart Gardiner and Jean Hatchet, the only two dancers on the floor, sit Ernie Castle and Audrey Doig. Mr. Castle, millionaire auto mechanic, has been reported engaged to every girlie in the school with the possible ex- ception of the Armstrong sisters. On the right we spy Dorothy Blade, Jim Rogers and Lorne Gange and Geo. Benze. At the extreme right Viola Sexsmith, Stanley Darling, Alfred Mattucci and Arthur Jones are being interviewed by Peter- boro's second best columnist, Alvin Met- calfe. Because of an important meeting called by lNIr. Corneil, Douglas Abraham, Don Coughlin star hockey playersg Boyd Stinson, notorious gambler, and Nlr. Harrison, the only man able to play a banjo with his feet, were absent from the party. COLULINIST A. LASENBY. News of Tform IIIZX fflnbustrial lifts IN the draughting class of Form IIIA there is no time for play. Don Cough- lin is V81'y serious and would not even think of talking to Mike Conroy or making faces at anyone in particular. Brady has turned to poetry for peace, but Joe Bencze just uses his imagination. Ivillie Harris takes delight in teasing and greatly amuses two fellows in the persons of Keliele and Darling. In the shop set aside for those electrical genii and presided over by II1: Weams, the atmosphere sometimes becomes very warm. That sprightly little Frenchman fRay Colle-tj just loves an argument while working, and once in a while ltlil- lard will grab a hickey, and between lusty heaves will attempt to satisfy the yearning. Lorne Genge just delights in work if he doesnt get his hands dirty making t.hreads. If not working he enjoys watching my good work, Next come those very smart boys who wreck cars. I know Choate would be glad to help me with one. Just the other day Ernie Castle told me he was going to turn in the old grey mare on a well- used car so that he could ride around town like Stew Gardiner who is always singing. Trucking.', Leonard Copson, the midget of the mechanics group, adores that great, big. tall, Greek-bodied Rodgers. Doig usually has a joke to share. Next but not least are the machine shop specials. When one passes the door, those aproned men of industry are busy deforming pieces of steel. Earl Woods just likes to ask dumb questions and rattle money, but 'iGable Stinson waves it by with a grin and a droop in his eyes. Harrison, llaloney and hIattucci are always attentive in their work-when the eye rests upon them. As this is not always possible, t.he mice play while the cat is away. For some reason or another Jones doesn't like his present seat, but has to abide with it. Abraham and lVIet- calfe B11jOy the diversion and rest in the science room. Under BIr. Corneills private care, his fledglings have good care. Alex Lazenby and Thorne are just working out a mar- velous scientific invention-but won't talk. This concludes the news of good old Forin 3.
