WHAT FRIENDSHIP MEANS

Friendship means giving and re-
ceiving; helping and being helped;
being kind and receiving kindness;
being charitable and receiving chari-
ty; loving and being loved; being
merciful and receiving mercy. All
this and more. And these are the
elements that enter into Pythianism.
Let us keep the ideal ever before us.

Encouraged by their success at
Dead Mans hill the Gerans rushed
in a desperate but futile attack on
hill No 304. In a barren ravine they
were caught under the fire of scores
