C. I. students were surpris- ed to see -their respectable and con- servative principal masquerading as a peculiarly sinister -looking China. man, 'last Thursday night. We had observed that; a dangerous -looking Oriental was presiding at the "B;l_. go" booth; but we,had not recognized him, until someone observed that the Bingo boards were arranged in . a geometric design—a11 squares arid right angles like a chequer -board, (Is it checker or chequer?—just one of those words like racket and racquet. --.- you feel that you're wrong no matter how you spell it.) "This is a sort of geometric ar- rangement isn't it," someone said. "Mr. Fines would be in his glory here—," And so he was — complete with pig -tail, pyjamas and dark -glasses. Strange, but true. We have noticed' that First Form- ers are rather like birds, don't you Mink so? They're ;given to making peculiar noises—you know—tlie chic- kadee says "chickadee" and the owl says "wh000" or something•, and by the same token Ken Cooke shoats "Givens" or "Gus" at intervals for 110 apparent reason, and when he'sees Dorothy holland he acts differently -- crying "Hack! .hack!" Rather like a duck. Bob Draper has his peculiar cry, too.. He makes remarks like "Goalie; Gordie!": when he happens to see Cora Streets or, Sybil Mackenzie. Queer habits these First -Formers have, don't you think? We are pleased to hear that Jcan Cornish is "getting' along fine" She will miss the exams, though, her Bis= ter assures us glumly. The poor kid! 1 And while we are on the subject of casualties—Tor Cooke --- an ex - student of our Collegiate—received al rather severe blow oil the head last Thursday night.' We sincerely ]tope that he will not soon recover. (By the way, he is, one of the people who read this column to "see how many mis- takes she makes this :week.") Oh pray that God would bless Father Phelan's ministry. After the Mass four young men, namely: Messrs. William Kelly, Jr., William Hoffron, Jr„ Simon Halla- Ihan, and Earl Healy, approached the altar railnig andasked for tete attention of Father Phelan. bar. Hoffron read a very appropriate ad- dress congratulating Father Phelan and extending the good wishes of his ' friends and presented him with a purse, the gfit of the parishes or Clinton and Blyth. They said that henceforth the world would know hire as Father Phelan, the word father taken in its true and literal sense, namely, teacher and spiritual father. They then asked Father Phelan for his blessing, Father Phelan nnacle a short reply, thanking them and etencling his good wishes to everyone who had helped him to become a priest and said that it was not due to any per sonal efforts but entirely tothe grace of God for which be wished to thank God. Then the people approached the altar and Father 'Phelan gave them his priestly blessing during which Father Sullivan .sang "Just for :To, clay. ". The music for the Mass was fur nishesi by the combined choirs of Clinton and Blyth churches. The or- gainist was 'Mrs. W. Lave of Clinton,. sister of the newly ordained. After leaving the church; Father Louis J. Phelan and Father W. J. Phelan and Mr. Thos. Phelan of 'Sagi- naw, Minh., Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Lane and the ministers .of the Mass and Sisters front the Sacred Heart Con. 'Vent, proceeded to the home of bin.' and Mrs. James Phelan, where Mee. Mary Phelan, the greatest treasure of the Phelan family, also lives, here a beautiful dinner in honer• of the newly ordained was served. During the dinner Rev. M. Sullivan, Rev. B,- Gaffney, and Rev,' Papuette spoke a few words of congratulations to the Phelan family. In reply Rev. W. J. ?Minh gave' a short speech of appre- ciation. to al'1 those who helped in any Way, then Rev. L. J. Phelan seconded the words of his brother and also ex- tended his thanks to everyone. Manny thanks ar•e extended to Charles: Nicholson; and Mrs. John Gresby, who helped so faithfully and ably with the dinner, also to the three charming young waitresses, Misses Margaret Heffron, 'Marie pettier and Mary Phelan. STANLEY Mrs. Charlotte Elliott, one of Stan- ley's most loved and esteemed resi- dents, passed away at the home of her daughter, Mrs. R. S. Reici, at noon on Sunday, May 31st. Mrs, El- liott was the widow of the late Ro- bert Elliott, Goshen Line who prede- ceased her by twenty-three years.

C. I. students were surpris- ed to see -their respectable and con- servative principal masquerading as a peculiarly sinister -looking China. man, 'last Thursday night. We had observed that; a dangerous -looking Oriental was presiding at the "B;l_. go" booth; but we,had not recognized him, until someone observed that the Bingo boards were arranged in . a geometric design—a11 squares arid right angles like a chequer -board, (Is it checker or chequer?—just one of those words like racket and racquet. --.- you feel that you're wrong no matter how you spell it.) "This is a sort of geometric ar- rangement isn't it," someone said. "Mr. Fines would be in his glory here—," And so he was — complete with pig -tail, pyjamas and dark -glasses. Strange, but true. We have noticed' that First Form- ers are rather like birds, don't you Mink so? They're ;given to making peculiar noises—you know—tlie chic- kadee says "chickadee" and the owl says "wh000" or something•, and by the same token Ken Cooke shoats "Givens" or "Gus" at intervals for 110 apparent reason, and when he'sees Dorothy holland he acts differently -- crying "Hack! .hack!" Rather like a duck. Bob Draper has his peculiar cry, too.. He makes remarks like "Goalie; Gordie!": when he happens to see Cora Streets or, Sybil Mackenzie. Queer habits these First -Formers have, don't you think? We are pleased to hear that Jcan Cornish is "getting' along fine" She will miss the exams, though, her Bis= ter assures us glumly. The poor kid! 1 And while we are on the subject of casualties—Tor Cooke --- an ex - student of our Collegiate—received al rather severe blow oil the head last Thursday night.' We sincerely ]tope that he will not soon recover. (By the way, he is, one of the people who read this column to "see how many mis- takes she makes this :week.") Oh pray that God would bless Father Phelan's ministry. After the Mass four young men, namely: Messrs. William Kelly, Jr., William Hoffron, Jr„ Simon Halla- Ihan, and Earl Healy, approached the altar railnig andasked for tete attention of Father Phelan. bar. Hoffron read a very appropriate ad- dress congratulating Father Phelan and extending the good wishes of his ' friends and presented him with a purse, the gfit of the parishes or Clinton and Blyth. They said that henceforth the world would know hire as Father Phelan, the word father taken in its true and literal sense, namely, teacher and spiritual father. They then asked Father Phelan for his blessing, Father Phelan nnacle a short reply, thanking them and etencling his good wishes to everyone who had helped him to become a priest and said that it was not due to any per sonal efforts but entirely tothe grace of God for which be wished to thank God. Then the people approached the altar and Father 'Phelan gave them his priestly blessing during which Father Sullivan .sang "Just for :To, clay. ". The music for the Mass was fur nishesi by the combined choirs of Clinton and Blyth churches. The or- gainist was 'Mrs. W. Lave of Clinton,. sister of the newly ordained.

Mary Phelan, the greatest treasure of the Phelan family, also lives, here a beautiful dinner in honer• of the newly ordained was served. During the dinner Rev. M. Sullivan, Rev. B,- Gaffney, and Rev,' Papuette spoke a few words of congratulations to the Phelan family. In reply Rev. W. J. ?Minh gave' a short speech of appre- ciation. to al'1 those who helped in any Way, then Rev. L. J. Phelan seconded the words of his brother and also ex- tended his thanks to everyone. Manny thanks ar•e extended to Charles: Nicholson; and Mrs. John Gresby, who helped so faithfully and ably with the dinner, also to the three charming young waitresses, Misses Margaret Heffron, 'Marie pettier and Mary Phelan.
