The earth was beautiful until man moved over it. And man said, "Let there be dark- ness", and there was darkness. Man said the darkness was good and called it security. And there was no evening and no morning on the seventh day before the end. Then man said, "Let there be na°genal governments to divide and control us in our darkness. Let there be leaders to lead us in our darkness, so we may know our enemies." There was no morning on the sixth day before the end. Then.man said, "Let us create an army to control men's bodies and minds, and -. let us extend our darkness all over the earth. Let us create rockets acid bombs to " kill faster and easier and at a distance for we must protect our security." And there was no morning on the fifth day before the end. And then man said, "Let us travel to the moon and planets and stars for we C must extend our security — while the other men starve on earth we will reach for the stars" — and there was no morn- ing on the fourth day before the end. Then man said, "Let us create escapes for ourselves. Let us have drugs and pep pills, goof balls, tranquilizers, ad- vertisers, opiates, barbituates, LSD, STP, SEX, for we are troubled by reality since it disturbs our security." And there , was no morning on the third before the end. And then man said, "Let us create God in our own image lest some other god compete with us. Let us say God thinks as we think, hates as we hate, and kills as we kill." And there was no morning on the second day before the end. And on the last day there was a great noise on the face of the earth, and there was silence. The blackened earth rested to worship the one true God. And He saw all that man had done. And in the silence over the smouldering remains - He wept. a or rro r AffidgetXy, fry! basketball Our midget � Mustangs were entered in the championship; tournament February 27 at Listo- wel. istawel.

The students are very energetic and dedicated to the cause of getting the play "Anne of Green Gables" ready for their perfor- mance in May. The auditions were held in Mid - January and since then they have practised every Monday through Thursday from 3:30 until 5:00. This type of dedication is very, commendable and should be re- cognized by the rest of us. Last Saturday night the cast went to Kitchener to view another performance of "Anne of Green Gables" to see how others performed and how they could improve their own perfor- mances. Getting prepared for a perfor- mance of this calibre is no small job and should not be taken for granted. If anyone saw last year's presentation, "Fiddler on the Roof', they know that the stu- dents of F. E. Madill are truly capable of putting on a "Class A" performance. "Anne of Green Gables" is sure to be a great performance, so be sure not to miss it.
