VOX FLUMINIS 25 GRADE V AND VI PLAY RADES V AND VI were delighted with the idea of having class- room plays for it gave every girl in the room an opportunity to act. The choosing of the play proved quite a problem, but once we heard Rumplestiltskin read we knew what we wanted to produce. ' During the course of preparation we met several difficulties. Some leading characters would be sick and absent for ten days, which considerably delayed our progress. However, at the time of writing, we feel almost ready for Tuesday afternoon, May 12, and are looking forward to 'our opportunity to show our mothers and friends what an enjoyable little play Rumplestiltskin is. The cast is as follows: Miller ....................................,... ........

GRADES III AND IV THE fairy play Golliwog in Fairyland or How Edward The Teddy Bear Became a Knight was presented by Grades III and IV in May. The cast was large and some of the girls too-k double or triple parts. The costumes were greatly enhanced through the eHorts of Nancy Wallick, who supervised the making of the flowers used in the play. Some of the scenery was kindly loaned by the T. Eaton Co., the remainder was made by the girls. The cast hopes that the audience received as much pleasure in seeing it as they did in presenting it.

The Specal Glee Club is a group of girls specially chosen from the Senior Glee Club. In all there are twenty members. The group first sang at the Teachers' Convention in St. James. They sang a group of five songs. The girls belong to the Junior Musical Club, and in this connection have sung over the radio and at a meeting of the club. At present they are preparing to sing at the Musical Competition Festival. Already Iris Norman has won great success by coming first in her class. We only hope that the rest of the girls will have the same success. Much credit andpraise is due Mrs. Dempsey who has carefully coached the girls and kept up their spirits by her own enthusiasm. We hope we will hear more from the girls after their work at the Festival. JANET BARTHOLEMEW, '37, York Hall. THE SENIOR PLAY This year the Senior Dramatic Club produced Charles Dickens' Christmas Carol, under the capable direction of Miss Carter. The part of Scrooge was admirably portrayed by Shirley Muddiman, who was supported by an able cast. The charming musical back- ground was supplied by Mrs. Dempsey and the Senior Glee Club. A large audience was in attendance and their approval was shown by their hearty response. MAURINE STUART, '36, York Hall. FRIDAY NIGHTS LAST year the only Friday night get-together that was held was such a success that it was decided, with Miss Carter's per- mission, to have more of them this year. Accordingly, not long after school began we held our first, on the eighteenth of October. The Senior teachers were invited and grades nine, ten, eleven and twelve. We all met at the School and went together to the Winnis- peg Rink. Not many had been on roller-skates before but it did not take long for the beginners to get their skating-legs. We returned to the School for refreshments, after which we danced in the gym. The next Friday night was held on the fifteenth of November, in the form of a hike. This time the Junior teachers were invited
