(Chronicle photo) e're all done By Marian Doucette "Tis the season to be jolly!" may be true but, there ha're not been many jolly souls romping about CHSS this week but rather half asleep, inactive students who only gain energy once that dreaded test paper is set down before .them. One would think they would be jolly after 'their exambut they only groan "I could kick myself for being so stupid. 1 did that whole question wrong.' Thenthey drag books out of their lockers to'' study for the next exam. Tomorrow night though, these. sa me half dead students will become those jolly energetic souls of the' season and our burden of exaths will shift on to our teachers. 50 hear architect speak More than 50 people from Goderich, Clinton, Exeter, Kingsbridge, Bayfield, and surrounding area met at the Little Inn, Bayfield, to hear special guest, Brian Garratt. speak on the exteriors of historic buildings.

Of course it was always the latter, and consequences left no from for mercy or s,oft- nesal Three couples were brought 'on stage, "given a German phrase and told to act it ..out using the "ap- paratus" - a bowl of Jello, What. of course they didn'ttx know was that the phrase meant "Give the a kiss' .My, how those folks misin- terpreted. But what made it funny was that we knew. Which leads me to something that's been bothering me: In the past four years, where in the devil have they been hiding a "sound- proof" room backstage? Hum ,.. sounds suspicious. At any rate, : more con- sequences were handed out. People were being trodden on (in more ways than one) by a strange looking horse, weird - looking "fairies" were popping up here and there, and at one point. Ruth Colciough had a dozen people going through the most painful gyrations on stage! Perhaps the mast humorous skit was the "initiation" of three in- nocents ' into the "Ougah- Boogah" Tribe? A tribunal consisting of Sue Tyndall, Doug Riehl and Brian Lobb made sure that the initiatees were thoroughly "doused" so to speak, with the whole idea. However, the main in- stigator. Sue Tyndall, had the tables (or should I say "chair") turned on her. At any rate, I'm sure the laughter could have been heard from quite a distance after that skit was finished.

Joe "Super Cop•. doll. arrived finally at CHSS. Some letters were answered. For example Mr. Reidy. Mrs. Weary and Mr. James all got presents which Santa knew they would treasure and use (with the possible exception of Mrs. Weary's present!).
