VOX FLUZWINIS Page Thirty to see if you can make a successful get-away without having them pulled off you. Finally, you emerge from school looking heated and dishevelled but really having enjoyed yourself. Another Riverbend day has ended with the usual locker-room scramble. -Pat Collard. Grade X. DEUTSCHE OSTERBRAUCHE In der Eifel hat sich eine ganz eigenartige Sitte erhalten. Am Ostersonntag stellt man dort in der Mitte, der Marktfleckens einen Korb mit roten Eiern auf. Man legt diese Eier in einer langen Reihe auf der Strasse. In der Zwischenzeit muss ein andrer. der Laufer, in die nachste Stadt zum Burgermeister mit einer Botschaft laufen und mit einen Wort vom. Burgermeister zuriickeilen. 'Wer zuerst seine Aufgabe lost ist Sieger. Er erhalt den grossen Korb mit den roten Eiern. -Shiela Paget. LA BERGERE . La bergere habite une petite maison sur la montagne. Tous- les jours elle vient garder les moutons de son papa. Son grand chien policier garde les moutons, aussi. Elle mane les moutons, tous les matins, de sa maison au grand chene au bord de la route ou elle regarde les gens qui passent. Elle apporte un livre avec elle, et l'etudie quand elle est fatiguee. Elle aime regarder les moutons et rester sous l'arbre tout le jour. A cinq heures et quart elle retourne a sa mere et at son pere et passe le soir avec eux. Elle s'appel1e Charmaine et elle est tres, tres belle. -Shirley Johnston, -Grade VIII. JE REGARDAIS PAR MA FENETRE Je regardais par la fenetreg je voyais la grande route blanche, les voitures. les passants et les champs. Il est samedi et je viens de retourner du marche. Quelques passants sont des paysannes qui viennent de retourner du marche et d'autres sont des automobilistes qui sont allees se promener en automobile ce beau jour. Des gens se promenaient en voiture avec de beaux chevaux. Je voyais une voiture tiree par un ane. La grande route blanche est pleine de poussiere parce qu'il y a beaucoup d'automobiles et de voitures. Dans les champs les enfants qui sont mes amies .jouaient et la bergere gardaient ses moutons. Bientot j'ai ferme le fenetre a cause de la poussiere et suis entre dans le champ jouer avec mes amies. -Nancy Morgan, Grade IX.

Page Twenty-nine VOX FL UMINIS TRAVELLING WESTWARD We travel the dusty road till the light of day is dim, And sunset shows us spires away on the worldis rim. Travelling-what a vision that one word may call before us,--over hill and dale, through woods and mountains the enchanting scenes unfold. From the gateway of the West to the western seaport of Canada we may see various beautiful panoramas. As the first morning's sunshine dawned we were gaily travelling through the hilly districts of Manitoba, beautifully green and carefully guarded with their many stately trees. The water bub-bling along in the brooks provided variety to the scene. Travelling through Southern Saskatchewan we came to the hot, dry, rolling plains. Though some of the plains were dry others were covered with golden wheat. As we left the wheat fields we came into the ranching districts of Southern Alberta. Soon we saw the foothills of the rockies rising out of the morning mist. When we reached them they seemed to close in on us. Such towering grandeur forming many distinctive shapes is not seen in any other part of the world. We saw many cold glacier lakes, making small green patches on the sides of the tall snow-capped mountains. Many cold streams trickling down the mountain sides formed emerald lakes and reflected, in their glassy surface, the beautiful stately pine trees which cover the mountains. When leaving the highest peaks of the rockies we came into a deep green valley where rivers flowed slowly among the orchards. Trees laden with luscious fruit were plentiful. In Vancouver we felt the change to the sea ,climate and when crossing to Victoria where we intend to spend the winter, we saw the burning ball of fire sink into the sea leaving its crim- son rays reflecting on the ocean. A -By Nancy Morgan and Catherine Walton, Grade IX. THE LOCKER ROOMS Any Riverbender knows that at five o'clock the chief meeting place is the locker room. The cause may be the release from school or any other similar reason. However, the line which holds you back during the day, then breaks and it is one for all and all for oneself. When you come down from study the chances are ten-to-one there is a shoe or glove missing and to find it amid the throng of laughing and yelling girls is utterly impossible. If such is the case, I should advise you to plant yourself firmly in front of your locker and stay there if you can. At last, about half an hour later, the crowd has dispersed and you may begin your search in peace. After crawling over the floor and covering every bit of ground thoroughly, or craning your neck to see if your lost belongings are on top of the lockers, you will more than likely find them tucked away in one corner of your own locker. You don your hat and coat and peer around

Il a vu quelquechose dans la vitrine d'un magasin qu'il a trouve tres joli. Mais quand il est entre dans le magasin, et s'est dirige vers la vitrine pour le regarder mieux, on l'a traite tres mal. La nuit commencait at tomber. Joseph a trouve son chemin hors de la ville, et a decouvert qu'il etait perdu. Ah,,' s'est-il dit Je fermerai mes yeux et marcherai toute la nuit. Et il l'a fait. Naturellement il s'est heure la tete plusieurs fois, mais le pauvre Joseph etait trop fatigue pour le remarquer. Enfin il est entre at la porte d'une maison, et s'est affaisse sur le plancher profondement endormi. Le matin, il s'est leve, il a regarde autour de lui, et- Mon Dieu! je suis chez nous ! a dit Joseph, et a commence a manger. -Betty Ray Parton.
