It is satisfactory to see that they stand sixth on the list of the best hundred units of the Empire. Will you kindly convey my special congratulations to Lieut. S. J. Batt on these results. With all good wishes, yours sincerely, R. W. ffennell. GIFTS T0 THE SCHQOL For many years we have allowed ourselves to think of the day when we might own a sound projector and be equipped to show motion pictures at the School. That day has now come. Through the generosity and thoughtfulness of Mr. J. B. Mackinnon we are the proud owners of the latest model of sound projector and already three separate showings have been given, two in the Senior School and one in the Junior. It is proposed to map out a programme of films to be shown for the term, these will be mostly educational but there will also be a number of purely entertaining ones. Topping and Lloyd are skilful operators and when we have the proper speakers in the Hall it will make an ex- cellent theatre for showing films. The School is deeply and lastingly grateful to Mr. Mac- kinnon for this wonderful giftg he will bring, through this projector, many entertaining and instructive hours into our lives. if Il' 5 I O Mrs Barry German brought several most interesting books to the Library. il Il I 8 8

Then the Major is sick again and I have just that much more to do. You see when he is on the job he runs into town every morning and deposits the canteen money in the bank, gets the mail and does all the odd jobs so that when he is away I have to do all that and it takes up a couple of hours every morning. Anyway last week we shut down the Mill on Wednes- day night and did not start her again until Monday morn- ing. Thursday we picked one hundred and twenty men from the company and took them to a nearby soccer field and began to brush up their foot drill and marching for the coming inspection. Naturally a great many of them were rather rusty and we broke them up into small squads for the morning. In the afternoon we went through the whole ceremonial drill as it was to be done on the inspec- tion on Sunday. We took great pains in making the men wheel without bulging when in column of threes by placing three stakes in the ground at the point where they changed
