that something remotely approaching

"Stee-rike three!" yelled the um-
pire, and then he wondered why all
the players protested. It seems that
the erstwhile victim up to bat beet
not swung at the ball, and the pitch
was something over three feet off the
target. 'Doilbtles,s Howard is the first
umpire to offiejate while lying flat on
'his stomach in sweet repose. Need-
less to say, he was replaced rather
quickly.
Yes„ baseball's back again. We held,
an all -school softball tournament on
the last day of school before the Eas-
ter holidays, and although it wee a
bit chilly, and, the ground was a bit
mucky, we had a grand time.
* * *
More baseball! This isn't exactly
baseball, but apparently the Grade 9
boy are really trying to get their
arms in shape; they're practising with
chalk and erasers in school hours,
Their aim improved rapidly„ so that
in a few minutes' time the instigators
of the fray had to take cover behind,
beneath and around the movable
desks. What say you keep your pitch-
ing practice confined to the 'field, fel-
lows? It would save a lot of deten-
tions. wouldn't it?
While the boys use up their excess
energy playing baseball, the girls
have taken to badminton. While I
have always held the personal opin-
ion that girls are cruel, heartless
wretches, 1 never thought the fiends
would go so far as to bat a poor de-
fenceless bird back and forth across
a net!

Open Hettel is the next event on
S.H,S.'s social calendar. It is sche-
duled, for near the end of this month,
and will, of course, be "bigger and
better than ever." Isn't it always?
This year a few new features are
planned:. Members of the Camera
Club intend to demonstrate develop-
ing and printing of .negatives in ord-
inary light. There will be various dis-
plays of work done by the students,
and the students of Grade 12 plan.to
produce a class magazine which will
be on display at an Open:House/nigt.
It will have various department-
fashions,farm news, jokes, sports,
"advice to the love-lorn," and others.
By the way, if you know, of any who
might be in need of "advice to the
love-lorn," contact Mary (Dorothy
.Dix) Lane, and she will handle it.
The Drama Society's, minstrel show,
which has been in rehearsal for
mouths now, will be produced shoat
ly. I believe it is scheduled for Open
House Night, now.

Mt, Mrs. Haney
(Continued from Page 1)
presented Mr. and Mrs. Haney by
John Oldfield, while E. P. Chesney
read the following address:
To Warden and Anna:
Once on a time on the 2nd concession,
A lanky young man sought a wife;
'The same is a farmer's most precious
possesion,
For s.he's not for a month -she's for
life.
He looked them all over, but one
caught his eye,
An auburn haired maid from the vil•
lege;
The young man looked hard, then he
gave a deep sigh,
Said "I'd sure like to pillage the vil-
lage."
But he didn't quite dare to do any-
thing drastic,
So he courted the maid in the most
approved style;
He convinced her his love was quite
real. and not plastic,
Se she took him for life, without ev-
en a trial.
And tonight all the neighbors and
friends of the pair,
Have gathered together to give them
a gift,
To wish them prosperity, happiness
• rare,
And, in setting up house hope 'twill
be a big lift.
