Qlihe Quarantine Among the reminiscences of our College days at St. .loseplfs one will stand out as unique-that of thir- teen days in quarantine. Thirteen is a mystical num- ber, 'tis true and indeed the mystery and doubt of why we were in, and just how long we were going to be in, were rather painful at first, but soon we began to look at things in a happier way. The hand-sleigh riders, cross tag, the walk that con- sisted chielly of turns, were in time most acceptable, Wie ourselves not only acted as, but the noonday slumberers in the apartment, thinking likewise, called out, Children, you must be quiet , Run out and play somewhere else g,and when the lirst warning was of no avail-- l'll have you reported to the managern caused many a timid undergraduate to retreat to the precincts of some room and tell her tale,of distress to the brain- fagged bridge players. However, the dinner gong soon made us forget about it all, especially when one saw a table laden with eats that spoke of home-some, in fact, the very handiwork of the girls themselves. And then, too, we knew that during the three hour afternoon some of us were going to revel in the em- barrassing situations of her who was so unfortunateas to indulge in a game of Truth or Dare . Anything from demanding a nickel of a passer-by to making an angel in the snow was given as a dare . Everyone knows that 'children' like candies, and after such sportiveness in the fresh air we just had to find a messenger to get the Lauras . The smuggling was 'zsometimesn accomplished quite favourably, but at other times we werent quite so successful. llfhen a messenger is forbidden to fulfil his duties to his bond, it his disappointing indeed! But whether we got the candies or not, supper was eaten with equal enjoyment. No one could refuse those delicious cakes land a birth- day cake especiallyj, which were never scantily iced, nor did they taste as if the ingredients were used in scanty measures. Of course 'twas only natural we'd vent our feelings in some Away, so the Hukelelesu discovered the hitherto unknown vocal capacity of some, although we can't say the card players were too pleased with the orchestra. But 'lone certain party was even more hilarious than the orchestra-having imbibed indiscriminately some egg-nogs, prepared by our experienced cock-tail 'shakeiz But quarantine with its ups and downs passed over, and it even seems better when looked back upon than it did just at that time. As a result of it all we are excellent card players, have very melodious voices, are prepared to give lessons in household economics, and can play any childls game mentionable ! l ! ?

The executive called not only on the mem- bers ol the Crusade, but on every girl in the College, to do something practical and charged a reasonable fee to be paid into the Mission Fund. The idea was catching. Soon the notice-boards were covered with professional cards. VVashing, ironing, mending, shoe-shining, mar- celling went on at a terrific rate, while the appetites given 'by such unwonted manual labour were appeased by dainties provided by culinary experts. Delightful indeed were those levees preceded by a hot breakfast while one reclined among pillows. Then if one were possessed of twenty-live cents, one left one's room to the ministrations of the gold-dust twins and returned to hnd it spotless. I Nor were the labours entirely proletarian in character. Coffee for two-essays for twenty , was one cry. Another welcomed sign was Coaching in Mathematics and General Science . Typewriting, too, was done tor the most reasonable ot tees. As Miss Mowcher would say- My! ain't we volatile . Needless to say, the Catholic Missions are some dollars richer for this scheme. Ywnmens ehating The Wfomenis Inter-Collegiate Debating has been a very live activity this year. A series of debates have been held for College championship in Debating and for the possession of the Inter-Collegiate Debating Shield , between McMaster,University and the Colleges at Varsity. In the linal series St. Michael's, represented by Miss Josephine Phelan and Miss Norma Duffy, successfully upheld the contention that Pacif1cism is in the best interests ot present day civilization , against St. Hilda's College. In the second series St. Michael's met McMaster Cwinner ot their groupj in the deciding debate at Loretto Abbey College on March 18th, Miss Josephine Brophy and Miss Margaret Thompson convincing the judges that The dictatorship of Mussolini is in the best in- terests of ltalyu. By this victory, St. Michaels since they had won for three consecutive years the Inter- Collegiate Shield, have it as a permanent possession.
