The Student Council is hav-
ing a Christmas Prom on the
22nd of December. This is the
last day of school before the
holidays. The Marcadoes are
playing for dancing from 9-1.
It seems that the expenses
for a formal hold back many
students from corning so sever-
al items have been banished in
order to lower the costs and en-
able more students to attend.
The Council is going to supply
the corsages for each girl. The
boys will not have the expense
of a corsage but the girl will
still receive flowers which are
one of the luxuries of a big
dance, The dress is semi -for-
mal, This does not mean that
everyone has to have a new
dress. Why riot get out last
year's? Why not get out the
sewing machine and make a
new one or alter the old one?
Proms are often thought of as
stiff, straight-laced affairs.
This need not be. It is up to
the individual what kind of
time he or she has. I hope
many students will realize this
fact and come to the Prom and
enjoy themselves.
A Christmas Toyland theme
is being carried out in the de-
corating of the gymnasium.
Lunch will be served at the
dance.
The cost per couple is $2.50.
This includes a small corsage
for each girl. Boys, don't lose
any time in arranging a date
for this big dance. The 22nd
will be here before we know it!
Curling for beginners is
every Monday and Wednesday
after school and Saturday morn-
ings, The schedule is arranged
and all curlers are asked to fol-
low it,
The Purple house won the
boys' volleyball championship
for house -league sports during
the first lunch. Congratulations
boys.

Explorers Met Sunday Morning
BLUEVALE- The Explorers
met on Sunday when the roll
call was answered with a Christ-
mas
hristmas hymn. Keith Elston took
np the offering and it was dedi-
cated
edicated with prayer. The gifts
the children had taken were
dedicated.
Mrs. Ross Gray continued
the story, "The Golden Coin".
The boys were helping to take
lumber down the river for the
hospital. They saw elephants,
one of which was sick. They
reached their village to find
everything had a peculiar si-
lence. Dod was met by a huge
black elephant which chased
him as he ran to the courtyard,
and with his mother climbed a
tree. The elephant was the
one they had seen before and
it had a sore foot. The keeper
caught up with the beast just
as it charged the tree. They
gave the elephant a sedative
to make it sleep.
