brate the end of mid-year examinations

ard Rice, with Julia SilnondS and James
Irish ex-oficio members. 1t is hoped that
a large number of high school students and
alumni wifi attend this dance.
i, meeting of the student council was
held recently. The principal business was
the decision concerning the silver Il which
is to be awarded to those who become
members of the Honor society. At last it
was decided that the r submitted by the
College Shop should be used, if it could
be reduced in size. A motion was made
and carried that pupils having 50 per cent
in IS hours of prepared work should re-
celve four units Another motion was pre-
scented that the number of units earned
during the first year in the course should
count TO the full toward the silver f
awards, though no one is eligible for cleo
ton before the middle of his junior year.
This motion was carried unanimously.
The suggestion was made that the names
of the members of the student council be
included in the secretary's report and that
at each meeting the roll be called.
The cantata. Pilgrims of 1920, repeated
last Friday at the Home for the Aged
by the Thursday night classes, was very
much enjoyed.
The orchestra will resume its weekly
rehearsals this week Thursday.
On Thursday there was the most sue
cessful fire drill of the year. for the build
ing was cleared of grade and high. school
pupils in one minute and 80 seconds.
To the honor roll for the full term the
name of Margaret Edith French has been
added.
On the bulletin board outside room 4
during the rest of the year circulars from
advanced schools and data regarding op-
portunities for high school graduates viii
be placed. As the data will be changed
from week to week, many members of the
senior and junior classes who have not
fully decided upon what they will do after
they graduate will find suggestions of in
terest.
For number of reasons it seemed best
to include in the honor roll of the fall term
all whose average was so per cent or more
in the studies taken. For the winter and
spring. term, however. the honor roll will
include only the names of those who have
80 per cent or more in each subject taken.
