Society, The programme was by far
the best of any yet put on. Miss L.
Ord assisted them in their prepara-
tions.

ty minutes to four and it was a quar-
ter after six before the programme
was over. Before four Mr. Hartry, of
Seaforth, and Dr. Bennett, of St. Thom-
as, each spoke briefly to the Students.
Mr,
Hartry gave them some practical
education on how to plant a tree and

"I Ain't Got Weary Yet," Readings
were given by Miss Helen Grigg,
George Horsely, Bert Stamen, and W.
Kyle, all of which were well applauded.
Willis Vanligntond gave two instru-
