DRESSMAKING AND MILLINERY 1 MAXINE SCHULDT Calgary It’s not surprising how quiet the room is when Maxine is absent. She’s very fond of out¬ door sports.

Thomas Have you never heard the trill of a bird In the top of a maple tree, When snow streams run from the heat of the sun, And Chinooks are blowing free ? Have you seen the crow wing over the snow As he journeys up from the south; Or heard with a shiver the wailing quiver Prom a skulking coyote’s mouth? Page twenty-eight When pussy willows are waving billows Tossing their mantles of white, And the crocus’ bloom like a spinner’s loom Is weaving a tapestry bright, Then the robins appear with their song of cheer To build a home of love, And we joyfully sing: “Here comes the Spring!” As we thank the God above.

Page thirty THE LITERARY PROGRAMS TTHE first term Literary competition set a new high in school 1|L entertainment. The Composites were successful in winning the cup, but only by a narrow margin. All agree, however that the originality and variety of their program was deserving of first place. The Motor group placed second in this competition by reason of a program of high literary quality. They showed a marked improve¬ ment over last year. The many complimentary remarks passed about the Dressmakers Lit. testify of a very pleasing program. Aero pre¬ sented a splendid variety program. The Electrics will long be remem¬ bered for their original presentation of “Romeo and Juliet.” The Art class, who unfortunately were required to give the first presenta¬ tion, made good use of the short time at their disposal to prepare a Lit. which was very well received. The Winter Term Lits. showed improvement in almost every class. The Composites were again successful in winning the cup but they were hard pressed by the Farm Construction class, who for the first time were presenting a program as an independent group. Greater variety in methods of presentation and in material was shown during this term. Worthy of special mention in this respect are the radio program of the Dressmakers; and the quiz contest staged by the Motors, who used the Dressmakers as worthy opposition. The student body ones a debt of gratitude to Miss A. Veenen- daal, Mr. N. Safran, and Mr. D. C. Jones, who acted as judges for the Fall Term; and to Miss M. Miller, Mr. R. E. Byron and Mr. N. Safran, for similar assistance during the Winter Term. THE SHOOTING CLUB HOOTING got away to from the number who a: progress. The club has history. a late start this year, but, to judge re attending, it is now T making rapid now the largest membership in its Four new Savage sporting rifles equipped with aperture sights were purchased at the beginning of the season. The system of target lighting has been greatly improved. These two factors have resulted in much better marksmanship. The club, which is under the direction of Mr. Wagner, meets every Wednesday and Friday from 7:30 to 10:00 p.m. A silver spoon is given for the highest score in every 350 rounds. Only one spoon has been awarded so far this year. Karl Riep won this award with a score of 99 out of a possible 100. We hope that many more members will attain this degree of accuracy before the season is over. There has been an increase in the number of lady members and they have achieved very good results. The highest lady’s score was hung up by Marion Koch. Arrangements are being made to join the Dominion Marksman¬ ship Association. This should make for keener competition among the members. The members next year are assured of a perfect season, with the new rifles just nicely broken in.
