HS.. NEWS;
'Life. . is slowly. ' regaining • its
nsrmalacy at .deal old L.D.H°S.'
It�-happens* several mines a year,
'like a recurring' :.'epideinic ' • of
• poison ivy. (In case you're 'won-
derirlg what 'this is • all about,
an innocent 12 -letter. word. that
keeps us in nightmares—
"exam-inations.") At the height .of the
disease • the'. victim: is • feverish;
trembling,'glassy-eyed,• weak. in
the. knees, .and a 'littlegreen
around the gills: It usually lasts.
for a `week` or at ,the most, ten
days. Then the saddest andmost.
grievous part. At -this. point ; our:
parents are • considering •shock
treatments to • .electrify 'us ; from
our.. state of sudden "over; -intelli-
gence", this :mumbling of French
verbs through our' . oatmeal •and
the :grinding . of the geometry
'theorems with our "2y ,potatoes".
Oh, it's ghastly! But tine marches
On:. and the disease is cured (by
time only!). It is • needless ;to say
our parentsdo not have to
worry .;about those shock treat-
ments. We've had : them!. 1
YOUR FAVOURITE BEVERAG:
CREAMSODA
• With the '° holiday . season just ,
ahead, itis only appropriate that.
the students should talk of com- •
• ing celebrations. It is rumored
that the girls are planning at
least a -couple of •social functions:
Now we wonder just what? I'm
sure the boys would' like to know.
A Challenge',.:
For a while it looked as though

veiled? Where's 'that : ' fighting.,

of? Surely, you, aren't going to

MISSSHERIDAN,, commenting
on little 'Billy Baulch's 'poem:
"Since your poem' is about 'flow-•.
ers, .• Billy; I 'think , the word '•
"smell':" would be more appropri-
ate. You can stillhave it rhyme •
by substituting "bluebell" for
"mountain. pink".
