Exrltanp By KENNETH ROBERTSON, Secretary What stronger bond is there between schools than the exchange of school magazines? These publications, carrying with them friendly suggestions and beneficial criticisms, greatly aid us in producing a better Year Book. We regret that so few copies of other publications were received last year. However, we are continually soliciting new friendships and if our Year Book should reach any school, with whom we are not in touch, we would appreciate your magazine in return. Many thanks to those we have heard from. “The Optimist”—Calgary Normal School. An attractive, well-balanced and inter¬ esting publication. A little more humor would be an asset. Your Literary section, especially the poetry, deserves praise. Good work, C. N. S. “The Bugle”—C.H.C.I., Calgary—Yours is an exceptionally good magazine. Con¬ gratulations on your excellent exchange. Might we suggest a more elaborate cover design ? “The Bugle” is truly indicative of a school full of “pep.” “The Analecta”—C.C.I., Calgary—Here’s a well-organized publication. The cover is striking and everything inside of it deserves commendation. “The Techalogue”—S.L.C.I., Saskatoon—A really snappy first issue. Might we suggest longer write-ups for the graduating class. Your cuts are numerous and good. Best of luck for further publications. “The Tech-Art Record”—Calgary—A fine variety of departments. Your “Sparks and Splutters” are very bright, especially the cartoons. How about placing the index to your sport’s cuts right below. “Dollingdonia”—Dollingdon, Ontario—A splendid magazine, well organized in every way. The talent of your school is well indicated in your Literary sec¬ tion—One of the best we have seen. “The McMaster Monthly”—Hamilton, Ontario—One of the few exchanges produc¬ ed monthly. A sound, comprehensive treatment of school life. “The Grumbler”—Kitchener, Ontario—A bright, newsy and unusually well-illus¬ trated book. We welcome your exchange. “The Unicorn”—Melbourne, Australia—A distant exchange, a real book, a good laugh. See you again next year. “The L.C.C.I. Review”—London, Ontario—Congratulations on your remarkable edition. What about some biographies ? An adequate view of the numerous activities of your school. “The Tiger”—L. C., Spokane, Washington—This is by long odds the best of our exchanges. The material is exceptionally well arranged, the art work is an inspiration and the humor is really diverting. Altogether this publication is truly refreshing.

Page seventy-two YEAR TSnXWBXB By BETTY COLLEY (!) Stealthily! Hush! That was better. No one would ever find out. Old man Hershaw looked awful with all that blood on his face. Served him right. He shouldn’t have been such a fool as to trust a clerk with his secret, especially a clerk that he had tyrannized over and driven like a slave for twenty years. Well, now, it was the clerk’s turn. It had all been so easy. The old man had been alone. No one heard the shot that killed him and left him oozing out blood all over the office carpet. The sec ret safe had easily yielded up the money it contained, and now the clerk just had quietly to leave the building and catch the steamer to America, on which his passage was already booked. It was all so simple! And to be free, with money to live one’s own life! Careful! Not safe enough yet to give way to one’s feelings. Caught! Trapped! Like an animal deep in the hold of a ship. In irons, too! Who would have thought he would have been found out? All on account of that busy-body of a secretary! What had she been snooping about back at the office after hours ? She had her eye on the old man’s money, too. That was why she had put the police on his trail. Jealousy, nothing else. And now to be sent back to smoky, foggy old Tondon, to be tried, convicted and hanged. No freedom after all. What was that? The ship had struck something! Already it was listing to one side. The water was trickling in under the door. Good heavens! Was he to be drowned in a hole without a chance? Why didn’t somebody come? They wouldn’t bother with a murderer. He wouldn’t have a chance. Hurried footsteps in the corridor. Surely they would hear his cries and have mercy. Ah! Someone unlocking the door! The water was waist high. Hurry to the boats. On deck at last. The ship was sinking quickly. The boats were over there. What ? They were gone. Quick! To the rail. The last boat was rowing off. They couldn’t wait for a murderer. He’d have to jump for it. He was smothering. Would he never rise to the surface? Ah! It was good to suck air into his bursting lungs. What was pulling him? Oh! It was the ship sinking and sucking him dow n. Hurry! Strive harder. He was winning. It wouldn’t get him yet. What was that which had struck him ? A black box floating in the water. Good! It would carry his weight. Horror! It was a coffin. Someone in it too. It was shifting from side to side as the box rose and fell in the water. What if it was old man Hershaw? Nonsense. That was his nerves playing him tricks. Hershaw was in England, probably buried by this time. Still, what a gruesome raft it was! Would he be able to stick it out until he reached land somewhere, or would he go crazy and slip off into the green depths of the sea? The ship’s boats were all out of sight. He had no provisions. Nothing-. Even his clothes were soaked with salt water. No company but a dead man! No boat except a coffin. . . . Would the thing never stop? Slump, slither, smack. Incessantly. It was driving him mad. Every time the coffin rose on a wave, the thing inside slithered from side to side. Well, it was saving him, wasn’t it? The old guy was doing some good even after death. Hershaw wouldn’t. He’d be in the ground. Why must he think of Hershaw! If only he could reach land. He was so thirsty. Every gust of wind and every dash of spray was torture to his exposed limbs.
