COLLEGIAN, 1937. the Senior Girls' Championship runner-up for the Uuniorl Inter- runer-up for the Uuniorl Inter- mediate Boys' Championship. H. Furlong B. Linley, J. Preston, M. Graham were either on the rugby or the hockey team. 4C was certainly proud of her sportsmen. Lorne Small and Don Savage, in the both violinists played school orchestra, which, by the way, was a credit to the Collegi- ate this year. Several of the boys and girls were in the C-lee Club. Ernie Long did especially well in Mr. Bryan's shooting classes obtaining at one time 98 out of 100 marks. In the annual oratorical con- tests Phyllis Thompson and David Holmes were the repre- sentatives. Phyllis carried off first prizeg she also took part in the school play in the role of Mrs. McSpadden. Marjorie Clark and Jean Hope both took part in the Festival. I think this is ample proof of 4C outside interests being crown- ed with success, and I think it is also a good record for a fourth form. WE OFTEN WONDER WHY Marjorie Harris enjoys the walk from 40 to 3A? How Anna Roberts measures a gram? What attraction the table in the lab. has for Al Furlong? How tacks rest serenely on the seats of the desks? Why Marjorie Clark admires the nightingale? Why Alma doesn't like June in January? Where Bill Manning gets his knitting practice? Why Linley wants to be a mechanic? Why 4C has such a good repu- tation? For answers-apply to above named. CLASSIFIED ADS. Wanted Somebody to do the homework of Ken. Cunningham who has neither the time nor the am- bition. Please apply at once. Ken. Cunningham, 4C. Wanted A soft siphon for Phyllis Thompson during Chemistry periods. Apply Mr. Adamson, 4C. Wanted A lie-detector to see who really put the tack on Anna's desk. Apply Mr. Burnett, 3A. Wanted A few substantial wooden legs, nicely carved. Apply A. Cameron and M. Harris, 4C. Page Sixty- four THIRDS Step right up this way, ladies and gentlemen! See the best wax works in town! These fig- ures in their youth comprised the marvellous form of 3A in the 1936-37 term! See their effigies in wax as they were later in life when they reached the height of their prominence. Here is Mr. Bissonnette, their mathematical instructor, who in his very best mathematical man- ner versed them in that branch of arithmetical analysis known as the science of algebra. Next we have Angus Camp- bell, theologist and taxidermist, who valiantly struggled with the great theory, Things equal to the same thing are equal to each other. Then there is Ruth Colclough, culinary expert, whose recipe for Miel cake Choney to youj was her world acclaim. The recipe: 2 cups flourg 2 cups baking pow- derg 2 cups flour, 2 cups buttery 2 eggs not beaten, 2 cups honey and molasses rnixedg 2 cups flour. Next there is Donald Doherty, that noted designer of feminine fashions, who was made famous by his inspiration of slipping a gold kid waistcoat, bordered with bright blue, over a black short- sleeved dinner dress, with a vel- vet cape in a changeable orange and blue adequately covering the gown. The next figure represents Mil- dred Capper who became Bar- oness Sillie de Willy who was notorious for her exclusive din- ners and private yachts. And Raymond Frost, the croon- er, made more hearts than one flutter when he sang his famous Song for the Dessert. Here is Gilbert Gillies, stock broker, who because of his won- derful gift at mathematics the always got 100 in Geometry? was enabled to make and lose for- tunes daily by issuing a stock sheet, which told what the stocks would sell at to-morrow instead of merely what they sold at to- day. Now there is Ken Anderson who became a radio announcer. His wife made an account of everything he said: Short His- tory of Anderson Sayings, com- plete in two hundred volumes. A sample:- Here we are, home again! Hello, wifey! Oh, what a sweet little wifey! Has she got everything! Oh my, is this fun! What a riot! What a wife! Here's dinner, and what a dinner. Are we enjoying ourselves! Are We! I'll say! STRATFORD, ONT. A large crowd is gathered around a magnificent wax fig- ure crowned with sleek blonde hair. She Won distinction in the literary world as a great editor. For sixty-seven years she toiled upon a stupendous anthology which she completed in her ninety-ninth year, It consisted of thirty-seven enormous vol- umes and bears the title, The Library of Useless Knowledge by Nora Dorland. On the statue of Frank Bailey, the politician, is an appreciation: His mind was open as everyone knew, But his mind was vacant. Oh! too true! This must have been known be- cause they sent Friend Bailey to the High School Parliament. In a prominent corner, con- cealed behind a door stands the figure of a great scientist, Pro- fessor Charles Dunham, P. H, D., P. D. Q. His great contribu- tion to nature study was a vol- ume entitled t'How to Tell the Birds from the Flowers. The leading articles were How to Tell a Lark from a Larkspur? and How to Tell a Sparrow from Sparrowgrassf' A group of young girls is gaz- ing in a speechless ecstasy of admiration at the statue of Will Eckert, the famous astronomer of the twentieth century, who planet-ed little moonflowers in his garden in the hope of raising baby moons on which to exper- irnent. The young man represented in the Napoleonic attitude is Lloyd Gilroy. He was the best demon- strator of Take-Off corn- plasters and bunion reducers. A bent figure carrying a spade is Ken Farrow, who had high banking ambitions, but who turn- ed out to be the fastest ditch- digger that ever lived. The long-haired figure in the thread-bare coat is Bob Appel, poet laureate, noted for his love lyrics. He visited the jail at the height of his career to give the poor prisoners a sample of good literature. The prisoners were summoned in from breaking stone to listen to his poetry. After hearing five of his lyrics they all rose and implored the guards Take us back to the stone quarries. . This august statue clad in sombre black commemorates David Benner, an undertaker, who bravely undertook to bury all international feuds.

Smothered laughter and excited giggles lent variety to the remainder of the lesson, for the sleeper must be allowed to take his rest. Ken. Harrison suggested that we sing Sleep My Pretty One. However, the pretty one was left undis- turbed till -Glen Harris careless- ly closed the door in returning to the room near the end of the period, when Rip Van Sam came to, much surprised to find the interest of the class focused on him. Kenneth, did you take your teaspoon of Lux last night, be- fore you said your prayers'? is a frequent question of Miss M. Ross. The slouching form of Ken. Harrison has attracted our teacher's attention, and she has prescribed a nightly dose of Lux to prevent shrinking. As no im- provement has been noticed, the dose has been increased to one tablespoon.

We have figured it out that if Coleman had passed a quarter of the times he has failed, he would have graduated with the class of '97. We have also discovered that the number of times he has been caught chewing gum divided by four times the number of notes he passes to Ruth Arbogast, each period, is equal to the poundage required to lift Mt. Everest over the Woolworth Building. In the wonderful form of 1A Two girls sit and talk all the day, They make a great noise And flirt with the boys, Joan and Joyce are their names, so they say. Mr. Sinclair-How does it happen you are late again? Bridges-Well, there are eight in our family and the alarm clock was only set for seven. Therels a splendid old school on the hill, With pride it doth all of us filly At a class or a game, our spirit's the same, For we study and play with a will. STRATFORD, ONT.
