lunch to school. About a handful
of us showed up and we were
permitted to play basko..'Jall toss
across the room 'at noon recess.
There was Vincent Patterson,
Cliff Lowrey, some other girl and
'myself as I recall. We were
tossing' the .ball back and forth
and someone was in the middle
trying to tap it down. I stood ion
the edge,of the teacher's platform
'On the southwest corner. Just
below was a floor register grating
tied by alutninum 'Wire. As I
tried to return the ball, I missed
the platform and the next thing'l

then somehow I'd,-slide down

VinCent Patterson appeared at
the opening with a yardstick. It
was too short, so The .boys lay
down, holding onto each other's
feet, and Vincent came down to
- meet me. I got the yardstick all
right but then let go. After

Foster Fowler always said he had
a very special regard for his first
class at S.P.S.
A fine tribute indeed! Winter
lithe: at sehool was a time for
playing on the lOng slippery slide
formed by the run-off 'from the
eavetronghs.
The most daring pursuits were
the snowball fights which took
place in' the environs of 'the
spowforts erected in the west end
Of school grounds..
As soon as the snow would
pack, 'everyone became engaged
in making snow forts. A,flag was
planted atop the huge pile of
snow which was constructed on
the design of a wall with three
sides. After it was about six feet
tall, it afforded ample firOtectio'n'
for sorties against the enemy and
also against, their attacks. The,
ammunition (snowballs) was
.4 neatly' piled inside for
Convenience and safety from
pilfering marauders.
It was not cricket to make the
* snowballs too hard or icy 'and
throwing at he face was
unthinkable.
This strew war lasted day in and
day out and afforded welcome
relief from mildefgattes such as
Pot and Goose, Poison rag, Red
Rover, Pick the Crow and such
innocent diversions.

The guest speaker, Miss Nancy

Bernice Reid, Varna. Miss Hardy,

Miss "Hardy illustrated her
message on "Mission Today and
World Outreach" with, slides of
Africa, India, Korea and Canada.
She said that Africa has sent
missionaries to Canada and by
the year 2,000, Africa will
probably be the religious centre
of the world.
Miss Hardy emphasized that
the United Church does not send
missionaries 'to other s countries
unless they' are asked for help,
also that the church resource
centre will answer questions and
keep people informed as to what

A favourite. place for toboggan-
ing was Jack McMann's hill.
There wefelt that we literally flew
in space. Going down was pure
'joy, but' coming up again was
tolerated for the anticipation • of
our next run down hill.
I recall a night when we loaded
the big toboggan with eight, all
pushed it together, and anchored
by our legs and arms.
Down we'fled, across the creek
and almost up the other hill since
the snow was hard and crystalline
on top. It Was also extremely deep.
and we hit a p truding stump
buried in it. •
Bodies flew every. way, and
when we resurrected ourselves
We found that no one had been
hurt. •
Laughing, we set off again afid
being wiser as to the possibility of
hidden' objects, stayed on 'the
beaten track.
wAticiig about 8:30, we were
suddenly ,astonn,de ,i by some
myriads of "sho mg stars"
which' aptleared (to our innocent
eyeS) to have sbone just above St.
James Cemetery Before they
expired.
It was undsually dark and quiet
for some time afterwards and
before long we had universally
decided to, head 'for home.
McMann's, had , been kind
enough to construct a changing
place' along one side of ahill.
Inside were bencheS, a pot-
bellied stove, places to hang
clothes and wood to keep the fire
going.
Here we changed our 'skates
(for the skating on' the pond
between, thc hills). Here we
thawed out numbed .fingers and

soaking wet, we took off our wet
