Davidson and little son of near Brucefield spent Sunday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Lawson. EBENEZER • The October meeting of the W. A. of Ebenezer was held at the hone of Mrs. Charlie Williams. .The meet- ing was opened by the singing of a hymn, followed by the scripture read- ing by Mrs. Fred Lobb. Also she led in prayer. The roll call was ans- wered by the different uses of flour sacks.. Mrs. Martin gave a reading, Mrs. Bert Lobb and Joy gave a duet, Mrs. Herbert read a letter of thanks from Edith, Mrs. Black, thanking the W.A. for the little gift they sent her. The 'November meeting is to take the form of a social, inviting the com- munity. A special program will be prepared. The program committee is composed of the following; Mrs. Law- rence Biggins, Mrs. Bert. Lobb, Mrs. Ira Merrill and Mrs. Carman Teb- butt. The meeting was then brought to a close with the use of a hymn, after which Mr. Herbert pronounced the benediction. The hostess served a beautiful tea. Quite a number from around here attended the anniversary service at Holmesville en Sunday. Mrs. Herb. Oakes had the misfor- tune to fall and break her left arm.' Mr, Harold Lobb returned home this week after being away all suin- 1001•. The men are busy on the Sixteenth doing road work. Great to have celebrities among us, isn't it? We regret to observe that there is a decided lack of school spirit in the O.C.I. The ranks of the rooters were thin and few at that game on Thurs- day. How about a little enthusiasm," you supercilious people. The team needs some inspiration, goodness knows. Oh 'scuse us—we almost for- got. E. Carmichael from Seaforth was hurt in the second period of the game. He was not badly injured, for he got up again and went on with the play. We hope he is not a fugitive from justice, but we are doubtful—he was so very loathe to give us his name for publication. Also we should lilte to correct a slight error in printing; probably it was the fault of our writing, but we didn't intend to call the Seaforth team "brats". That is an error. We don't know what it was, but "brat" is a word we never, never us. (We don't know either. But we're sorry—Ed.) Also we mustcorrect ourselves on a technical error which we made two weeks ago. If you reinetnber, we said that First Form Lost the Inter - Form relay because they dropped the stick. Miss Sadie Elliott, one of our revered ex -students and well-known authority on sports (see Miss Elliott's new pamphlet "The Track Athlete's Bible") assures us inpained tones that one does not •use "sticks" in re- lay races—one uses "batons"—accent on the last syllable, please. Kindly excuse our ignorant :disregard for technicalities. Hereafter we' shall look upon a baton as a baton, with proper reverence. We also observed with displeasure that none of the three plays, even in their funniest or most pathetic places were sufficient to ,bring, a gleam of interest or. faint e a fan suit to the gum faces of two young men in the aud- ience. If there expression r was Y on es it their faces was s one of disap- proval. n proval. With Spartan (or poker -Tao - ed) rigidity they sat in solemn silence. throughout the performance, After that they put on their hats and went out, evidently feeling' they had -wast- ed twenty-five cents. Oh hell. Mr, Fines told this one, A First - Former came to the offipe one day, approached Mr. Fines and said: "Say, do you know where the library is in this school?" Mr. Fines debated the point 'men tally, for some minutes and respond- ed, "Well, I've been here some time and I think its the centre room up- stairs—there's a bust of Juno in •one corner, and if you know Juno to see her, you'll get it."
