L. h week an article will ap- pe-,r, written by a student who participates in the featured club or group. Drama Club By Mary Ann Schaefer, XIII The Drama Club of Wingham District High School is a very enthusiastic group this year. It's fifty members are under the direction of Miss Susan Welsh and Mr. Mark Forest. The club meets once a week and is given instruction on the fundamental principles of acting. The highlight of the year is the play given at the spring con- cert. This play is chosen by the s tudents themselves. Vari- ous manuscripts are studied and th, n a vote is taken. Once the play has been decided, poten- ti 1 actors and actresses try for a part. This is accomplished by numerous readings, the final st''.ection of the cast being made :he leaders. However, the drama club is ea,t only open for those interes- ted in acting. :lake -up, cos- tumes, props, and stage-man- aging are all committees on which students may serve. The play for this year's con- cert has already been chosen and the club is busy working on it. Because of the enthusiasm on the part of both the students and their leaders this should prove to be a very successful event. Comments from Student Council The Students' Council would like to remind the boys of the upcoming Christmas Prom on December 22. Time is running out. Never before have the boys had such an opportunity to save money on a formal dance. Remember that the Students' Council is providing corsages. Please contact your class rep- resentative if you are planning to attend. The Council has recently made a grant of $350 for the Camera Club so we expect to see more activity and perhaps an increase in their member- ship. It was the hope of the Council in making the grant, that the purchasing of some photographic equipment might lessen the cost of the yearbook in future years. The student body would like to thank the public for support- ing this year's magazine drive. Total sales were about $3,600.- 00 of which the Student Coun- cil will receive about $1200. for their use. 0--0--0 I would like to inform the students that this column i s o - pen to anyone who would like to submit an article or their point of view on some matter.

Terry Merkley took the part of a beneficent St. Peter.—Yearbook Photo. High school students and stu- dents home from college look forward to parties as part of the Christmas festivities. A good. rule for fun and fel- lowship at those parties is: keep it simple, All the ingredients necessary .are congenial people and good food, Buffet service is often ideal for this kind of informal enter- taining because everything can be prepared in advance, free- ing the host or hostess for mingl- ing with the guests. Easy to prepare, yet substan- tial party fare, can be a tray of assorted cold cuts and cheeses. This, together with plenty of bread and relishes, such as pickled celery sticks and rad- ishes, can satisfy hearty appe- tites without creating a major production problem in the food department. Here's a recipe for a bever- age that will suit nearly every tasts. It's neither too sweet nor too tart. GOLDEN HOLIDAY PUNCH 6 cups apricot nectar cup honey 1 cup lemon juice 1 quart ginger ale Dash of almond extract Pinch of salt, Chill the ingredients thor- oughly and combine just before serving. This recipe makes about 21 quarts. An even simpler beverage to prepare is condensed canned beef broth served on ice with- out diluting. Just add a dash o Worcestershire sauce, if desire' Hi -C Program Includes Carols BELGRAVE-The Hi -C Group of the United Church met on Sunday evening.
