ALICE DUCKETT. Alice was born before the War. The first object to take her fancy was a. picture of Mary Piekford. She has adored Mary ever since with the result that she is the only girl in IV A who has not put up childish things. ' ' Her skill in adopting Kilties is to be admirefl, also her manner- of ap- peasing their scornful Wrath. Her hobby is reading love stories. She invariably falls in love With the heroes. Not content With that, she bores her friends to death .raving about them. Some. day she will ap- pear in the title role in Drury Lane Theatre, London. BIOLOGY CLASS IV. A, R.C.I. Gir1's Athletic Association Much attention is given to the physical training of the girls of R.C.l. Probably this has been done on a, more elaborate scale this year, than ever before, owing to the great interest taken by the girls themselves, as well as, the untiring efforts of the Physical lnstructress, Miss P. McNeill. Sport is an important factor of this training, managed by the Girls? Athletic Association. The associationis executive members are: Hon. Pres.-Miss H. B. Marsterrs, Pres.-Delo Longworthyg Vice Pres.--Helen Smith, Sec.-Bernice Pederson, Treas.--ls-1

MYRTLE WILLOUGHBY . Myrtle VVilloughby first saw thc light of day in the thriving village of Sintaluta where she pursued the even tenor of her way until last yea: she passed successfully the first part of the First Class examination. Look- ing about her for the ideal school ii: which to complete her First she na- turally decided upon the R. C. I, Quietly and unobtrusively she has gone about her work and deserves success. GRACE MCINTO-SH tsl .c is 'fbuxom blithe and debonairt' and very studiousl We really cannot think of any facetiae about Grace for she is very like her name. . We think she will be at nurse and if she won 't she won 't and there ls, as Miss MacNeil would say, an enl On 't. JAMES CONROD is DICK, Stuke's brother you know. It is an-advantage sometimes to have had an older brother in the school. Dick makes the most of it. His ambition is to enter the room as the bell rings. He has made a record in the matter of late entries which is likely to stand as long as Babe Ruth's home run record. His favorite author is Prosper Merri- mee. He frequently borrows .books from Ken Blair Qsee Blair's Bio- graphy.D IRENE WiLsoN was out of this school for at time and in another Qa little red school- house on theiprancej where she pre- sided in a winsome but very stern manner. After her experience, she has decided to become a milliner or a lady barber or something in order to make a living. Her bugbear is the remark. I think we'll have to go slow here Miss Wilsonn. She is very healthy and has no use for Physics. She hopes to be an M. L. A. 21 HARRY FIELDS is a shark at language, French and Latin we mean. He does not suffer fools gladly and is somewhat annov- ed by his enforced association with -and--in 4 A. He will be in great success in life because he has brains and is a HARD worker. It is a pity that Fate does not promise him a partner of his joys and sorrows unless he takes lessons in dashing gallantry from Keefier or Loveriug. ISA WHITEFORD Isa Whiteford-initials are I. W. WV. but they are as inappropriate as a fish in an egg shell. She is 3 hard worker and is a devotee of the arts. Her impromptu verses have considerable vogue among the deni- zens of IV B3 she is a musician of note. But seated at the typewriter she becomes intensely utilitarian and pounds the keys for dear life. Her favorite recreation is holding the soaring wit of Albina Tufts in check. Her ambition is to be a mis- sionary to the heathen in 4 A. WALTER BROWN Why does he take Broad views? Because he comes from Broadview. He was a very model boy in that quiet village but the influence of Blair, Taylor and Norman Brown has been devastating. A pity! His fa- vorite recreations are girls and he is suspected of cherishing a secret passion for-Ah that would be tell. ing! ALBINA TUFITS Albina Tufts is energy personfied. She likes to be on the move. This possibly, is due to the fact that she is a Methodist ministers daughter, and that may account for the rumor that her ambition is to be a movie star. Her favorite recreations are nib- bling ice cream cones and dissecting frogs. She was ia Balfour Oratory Contestant and deserved to be. She telephones to Grand Coulee very fre- quently.

' TENNIS In the autumn, tennis was the starter and never before were there so many names enroled for the game. Our tennis players generally learn in their first. year and the vim, with which these novices play, is astonishing. i On account of the early winter, our tournament was not finished, but a live one to make up is looked forward to this spring. The tennis Club has been organized and the boys are getting busy on the courts. Mr. J. E. Campbell who has done five-fifths of this work in previous years was elected Hon. President. Witli him and Mr. W. S. Holmes, an athletic enthusiast, at the head of affairs, we know that tennis will go with a swoop. Cllook out you don 't get run 0ver.j ' . SPORTS DAY. If it had not been so beastly cold nothing could have been more enjoyable than our yearly Field Day Meet, held this tall. Great credit is due Mr. A. J. Wei1', who occupied the important position of Field Marshal. . The girls were divided into three sections, Junior, Intermediate and Senior. The athletics consisted of running and jumping chiefly. Olive Leitch was the winner in the Senior branch, with Helen Smith a close runner up. Blanche Paquet headed the long list of Intermediates. In the Junior Department, there were many good records, which made it diticicult to determine the leaders. However, Ruby Harper who won the Junior Championship and Flora Musgrave were the outstanding girls. BASKETBALL. All winter long, this joyous game is played in our well equip- 23
