Frances, we can't figure out whether it is Ward or not. Well at last The exams are over and are we glad? Wanted â€" Extra knowledge for French classes after school. Big Eleanor seems quite worried that Jim hasn't been here lately. Tud'ney believes in chewing gum to make the teacher cross. Bo(b Turney used to come at nine o'clock but now he comes at ten. The Victory on Tuesday gave us lots of excitement. We need an- other holiday. Some people stay home because its sprinkling rain and they have no rubbers. Mustn't be too forgetful M. S. second form would like to know which is worse the arm or the fuss. Blanche is still trying to keep up the morale of the class. Jim has not attended school much lately, you have a good excuse any- way, Jim. • GRADE XI Joyce is becoming a brilliant «tu- dent. She answers quite a few questions in English now. Nancy said she had a good time the other night. I wonder if it was the company or the show which made it good. Mable is very interested' in a certain soldier. Dundalk can be in- teresting at times, can't it Mabel? SEND IN YOUR RENEWAL. GRADE X Second form is anxiously waiting to see how many failed in our Eas- ter reiKirts. Our class is somewhat smaller now, Ted leift on farm service. Barbara is becoming brighter now, she is getting used to spending more time alone. Betty cays her best subject is Math, or have you changed your mind since then? Emma is our whirlwind, she is still improving in Latin David would make an excellent English teacher, if English depend- ed mostly on arguments. He usiial- ly finds something to argue about in each English class. Now since winter has passed, Laurie is usually on time for Latin class. druce doesn't know whether Latin or Mathematics is his best subject. We wish Marion and Shirley a speedy recovery.

More tires are also available for those with special cat- egories, but the supplies for service vehicles yet takes a large part of the tire production. WHAT OF THE FUTURE? (View of Mr. Oliver's Past Record) 1. Will you trust the man who couldn't find 50% of the cost of secondary education in 1938, to fulfil his pledge of 90% now? 2. Is the man who used Provincial Police to "negotiate" labor disputes, going to promote the welfare of Post-War labor in a shrinking market? 3. Is the Hepburn government that maintained Hydro rates at a record high and failed to provide Hydro for rural area.s in anticipation of war-time needs â€" is this government capable of planning and carrying out the tremendous essential post-war i)rogramme? 4. How many County roads did Mr. Oliver provide for the farmers of Grey? Do you want them guaranteeing _\ nur markets and prices in the post- war scramble? 6. Did it occur to Hepburn-Oliver to sell the surplus goods of Ontario in Britain? Who closed London Hou.se when our markets were already shrunk in half? ?• Is it any wonder Messrs. Hepburn-Oliver can't understand the wisdom of a policy of immigration which brings to this Province a market for our surplus products? 8. How else can we guarantee jobs for our returning Veterans? 9. What has Drew to offer that promises more? What basis is there to ex- pect better of him than Hepburn? Vote McCouley and Drew to Help You (Published by Progressive-Conservative Awociation of South Grey) The Canadian government has bought 289,068 acres of ]and for settlement by veterans. Some 98.- 000 acres of this land are in Alber- ta.
