Miss Winnie Melanson has been welcomed into our residence. Miss Melanson is going to work at the Millsite Offices for Fraser-Brace. As a matter of fact, she worked for this company be- fore and is, therefore, quite familiar with a number of their employees. We want to wish you the best of luck, Winnie, and we hope you like it here. -o0o0- Irene Edmonds spent this weekend at her home in Dorion. We hope you had a good time, Irene. -o0o- During the week, nothing outstanding happened -- just the usual trip to Schreiber but the girls didn't get to the big dance this week as the taxi didn't show up - - much to everyone's disgust. -o0o- A few of the members of House 16 had their first baseball practice on Sunday as some of you probably noticed. I think you will agree that we sure needed it! At least, we wont shock you so much the next time. -o0o- CHURCH SERVICES At a short church service in the Reereation Hall on Sunday, May 25th, Mr. Lavender intro- duced Rev, Harrington of the British and Foreign Bible Society. Rev. Harrington spoke briefly on the importance of the Bible in the present-day life and of the difficulties involved in intro- ducing the Bible to peoples whose languages have never been set to print. The service offering was donated to the Society. Mr. Lavender announced a change in the hours of church service. Next Sunday, the service will be held at 9:00 a.m. in the Reereation Hall. It is hoped that this hour will be more con- venient for all. -o0o- ONTARIO CONSTRUCTION COMPANY NEWS By E.C.Stormont ae cee ee cae er es ree ere Due to continued cold weather our softball team has had little opportunity for practice work but I understand the boys are all set to go just as soon as they receive that challenge. The playing field should be completed this week but we still await those volunteers to assist in grading work. HOUSE SIXTEEN REPORTING Page Three -o0o= Mr. and Mrs. T. A. Rigby are on a fishing trip to Nipigon. Son, Alec, joined them for the 24th of May holiday. Rumour has it that he received an S.0.S. to assist in landing the big ones, -o00- DOMINION CATERING NEWS By Doug Aherne The response to the ration book appeal has been very poor to say the least. This is definitely the last week before we turn in the delinquent names. For those who have made appli- cation for ration books, we shall endeavour to secure forms this week. -o00= During the past week there has been an epidemic of lone and dying cowpokes, but nobody seems to be the worse off for it; in fact, it is highly appreciated, as this rumpus takes place in the interior of two giant Seeburg Symphonolas placed in either commissaries. These nickel persuaders are in constant use to the delight of our terpsichorean fans who faithfully beat time with toe and heel. -o0o- With all due apologies to our student body, we would like to present some of our indispens- able D.C.Staff: Paddy Hayes, Comeau 43; H.H.Smitch, Bouchard 42; R.Populaskas, Terrace 47; S.Challon, P.A.46; T.R.Wocowicz, I.P.P.40. india Tut, tut, girls, don't go the whole way down to Rossport for a home-cooked meal, just pop in around meal time, we'll be "pickled tink" to fix you up. -o00- Who says that Dominion's Bull Cooks aren't the best treated of the lot -- just witness our boys driving around in Packards, smoking big cigars and not a finance corporation within miles. -o0o-
