Bothwell for his services as Censor. His duties were Particularily heavy this year. ADVICE TO GIRLS By Fay Menton. Dear Fay- I am in despair. I am very taci- turn and when in company I find myself unable to speak. Please tell me how to overcome this fault. Is my nose an asset or a liability. Yours expectantly, Helen Keenleyside. Dear Helen- You ought not to be in despair. Just because you are an unique per- son don 't get discouraged. Your fault is a quality that few possess. Cultivate it. As for your nose I would not term it an .asset or lia- bility but aw necessity. Yours Fay. Middleton-Couldn't we get some funny pictures for the Annual ?

Y , A SENIOR ' 'AH FETE All members of the Society world will be pleased to note that Pussy in the Corner , Drop the Hand- kerchief , and Ring Around a Itosyn are back and in full swing. This was very much in evidence at the Senior AH party last night. Some of the more risque mem- bers wanted to play Bull in the Ring but it was thought impossible as Bates, Cunningham, Vennels, and Mac didn't appear. But always re- sourceful Lovering and Harris hap- pened to drop in and so the game went on with full swing. Misses Balfour, Peebles, Andrews. and Longworthy surprised the form a great deal by eating chocolates: this habit was promptly suppressed as being demoralizing to the rest of the form. The party broke up with singing Qvery mildlyb Vile Won't Go Home Till Morningn, but unfortunately the invitations said eight o'clock, so all members went home, remarking that they had had a Very pleasant and model evening. Those taking part i11 the program were: Bill Mid- dleton who favored the audience with a violin solo, and who needless to say was not encored, and Harry Paulin, who delighted all with his melodious and rangy voice. Keefler gave a recitation. Staff Correspondent. Extract from D-avid Harris 's 1lOt9S--H:Bu1'11S7 style is rich and is founded on the Wholly Scriptures.
