Miss Blank. — ' ' Girls, Avhen you whis- per, please don ' t shout so loud ! ' ' Wouldn ' t it be nice if (1) The Faculty went to bed early once a week ? (2) If Evelyn Cook could keep still for five minutes? (3) If they served fruit cake and ices in the tuck-shop instead of A bun? (4) If ]Miss E. didn ' t care whether Upper Frances was a good girl or not? (5) If everyone could go home three weeks earlier than she should, and come back late the next year to resume her studies ? (6) If Mr. Farewell wouldn ' t worry about us when we go three miles on the toot-toot to see a respectable old-maid aunt. Avho abhors cards, theatres, men and late hours?

Not at all, not at all, answered the young lady, politely. The questions are all clear; it ' s only the answers that bother me. ' ' — Ex. jMiss L. (after lengthy discussion on patriotism) — Miss Honolulu, what mo- tives took our Canadian ti ' oops to war? Miss H. (brightlv)— Why, locomo- tives! Student — That is John cutting the grass.
