' $ $ Before the a last six weeks a over a gre deal of work has to be packed nto it. Thos poor char- acters • Grade IX are starting to get ` e feeling of army life. Every tenth period (weather per- mitting), they are drilled up and down in front of- the school until I'm sure they can't tell their left foot.' from their right. All this preparation is for the Cadet in- spection, which will be held at the Lions Park, or in the arena, on Wednesday, May 25, at 2 o'clock. �. t $ The first dance since before the Easter exams is to be held this Friday night. Music will be by the Austin Carter Trio, with ad- mission 50c a person and 75c a couple. So, boys, it looks as if it's going to pay if you go with a girl, especially if you can per- suade her to go "dutch". Now this dance is to be in the form of a "jean dance," with appropriate penalties being handed out to those who don't remember to wear the outfit required. Question of the week: Who passed • Math?
