COLLEGIATE GRUMBLING'S
Written Weekly by as Husky a Pair of Grumblers
As You'd Wish To Meet.
. What a breathless- week! No news!
No news, and still no news! We are
so busy doing nothing, (as far as
the paper is.concerned)•that we don't
know from where our next breath is
coming. I can just hear someone re-
marking, "sour-castic-like/' "through
your nose, you dope!" Nuff said.
There must be some copy lurking
somewhere, in the dim, addled depths
of otn brain -trust! Ah! Behold, a
light breaks through the -murk! No
longer shall we •fill space with grum-
blings. No longer shall we shed cro-
codile tears over the fate of our new-
born journalistic infant. The ' next
Paragraph, 0` readers, will be news,
(;`0'h yeah?" says the sound -effects
machine.).
Ladies, and gentlemen, allow us to
present herewith a poem, which Mr.
Fines,, our dearly beloved mathemati-
cal teacher, narrated to us, during
one of his infrequent moments of
reminiscence. He had just told the
class of a little incident ' which re-
minded him of his school days; when
13iggart, that pleasant -faced, curly
headed genus from Upper School,
remarked that it must have been a
very long time ago. That Iad has
no tact whatever, drat him, foiled
again!! However we had better
quote before this case assumes Gar-
gantuan proportions. The, poem:
.My sight is growing dim .
I can no longer see
But! Ho, here comes brother John
Bringing my glasses to me. .
Our favorite sport, now that the
football has been stored away in
moth balls, basketball, is not suffer-
ing for lack of enthsuiasm. Mr.
Fineshas itis. youthful proteges prac-
tising regularly, Not that they need
it, but practice makes perfect. All
anter -form girls' basketball games
have been cancelled until after com-
mencement. That certainly suits "ye
editors." They -(the editors) are
now taking a course entitled, "How
to be calm and composed in the pre-
sence of young' ladies." The teachers
are Holmes and Mr. Franks.
Senior boys are all in readiness
for their -coming fray with Wester-
velt on November .19th. We suppose
the Senior girls are also prepared,
but, of course, we cannot question
them on the subject until we obtain
permission, Mr. Franks and Holmes
who are now busily engaged reading
Virgil,
Recently a notice appeared on the
bulletin board. The notice read as
follows: "For sale,one football, just
requires bladder and cover, -lacing in
good, condition." Will person who
made above appealing offer please
communicate with Boys' Athletic
Society. They desire, according to
President Hovey, to make provisions
for future needs. Was it Shakespeare
01 Miss Beattie who said that there
was nothing like casting a wary eye
to the horizon,
If, by chance, you should - see a
group of gloomy persons walking a-
bout who are students of C.C.I. don't
be surprised. It is just another
Isymptom of sufferers of that common
malady—tests. We are sorry dear
pupils to utter that word. It appears
that lately one of the more learned
'members of the staff thought up the
idea of tests to well, we do not
know why they thought of this idea,
:Certainly no sane; broad-minded per-
son whose equanimity had not been
greatly disturbed would have propos-
ed such an idea. We, the pupils, .are
up in arms. 011 well, what's the use?
We can visualize every teacher say
ing, "You can consider yourself for-
tunate. Why, when E went to school
---," and so on into the )light. We,
the more farsighted, consider it but
another of the drastic methods em-
ployed by the staff to satisfy that
inward craving of revenge when they
see old age creeping on and seek
some heats to avoid it.
IQuite recently, in fact, only yester-
day afternoon, we had occasion to be
an eye -witness of a very interesting
scene. The chief actor was a dimin-
• utive young gentleman, ' Cowan by
!name, who hails from Fifth Form.
�His speech was as follows: "Then I
togk�her in my arms like this." ,In
!his arms he was firmly embracing an
object known as a waste -paper bas-
ket. Probably just a passing recol-
lection of his thrilling experience at
Initiation.. Interesting how love acts,
n'est-ce pas, ma there Laubepine.
! We have not fulfilled our name, the
' Grumblers. It is qiute difficult, real-
. ly
eal.ly too difficult. We are certain, how-
ever, that you would rather take a
trip into our editorial offices when
' we, your devoted employees are mak-
!lug
ak-!ing composition. You enter the room
' very quietly. Pardon us, the sec-
retary admits you. Before you are
two stern-faced males: One is fever-
ishly tapping a typewriter with one
finger, alternately emitting indistin-
guishable groans, and trying to chew
gum and eat an apple at the sante.
time. You are intrigued by him. The
other half of the editorship is peace-
fully reclining on a sofa emmersed in
the blissful depths of a love story.
Occasionally he affectionately strokes
his rather minute moustache: Peace-
ful chaps, these fellows, agent' they?
Oh, yes," answers the pretty, sec-
retary, "they work in shifts." No,
they receive no remuneration for
their efforts. Yes, very patriotic.
Good -day."
• And so you have an insight into
the lives of the men who make the
Collegiate Grumblings possible, those
heroic souls who struggle and serape
for the honour of G.C,I. A hint to
the wise is sufficient.
Until next week we bid you,
