FINLAYSON SCHOOL NOTES
EditOr-Anne KOSk1.

At it's regular meeting last Tuesday
evening, the Board of Education voted
funds for the rent of the village hall
for basket ball. Before actually be-
ginning basket ball practice, however,
the boys have to obtain fuel for the
hall, build back-boards, and construct
protecting barriers for the windows
and stoves. This work is progressing
rapidly and the boys expect to have
their first practise Thursday evening.
Enthusiasm among the boys is near
the boiling-point. After the holidays,
it is probable that the girls will also
use the hall for basket ball. To the
scouts of Troop No. 1, belongs the
credit for doing all the work of pre-
pairing the hall for use in basket ball.
They have worked with a will.
The high school girls have organ
lied a new club called T. N. T.
Meetings will be held regularly every
two weeks. The officers of the club
are as follows: Fern Arth, president;
Grace Dignan, secretary-treasurer.
The next meeting will be a Christmas
party, at which the members of the
club will enjoy Christmas tree and
exchange gifts.
Work on the Christmas pageant
is going ahead rapidly. 1t will be
given on the night of Dec. 81, at the
Community hall.

considerable amount of material and

Scatter with one hand, gather in with
two:
What we give freely comes to us
again,
What we withhold goes out from US
with pain,
To vanish utterly. For this is true:
While giving is great creative
power,
Avarice is destructive to the soul
We grasp at trifles, and we lose the
whole,
We count the minutes and forget the
hour.
Each treasure that we hoard and call
OUR own
Is lent to us from natures bounteous
store.
Nothing is ours. We come helpless
alone,
And empty-handed go from earth's
last shore
Save for the incense rising from the
love
We've given. This will follow us
above.

Recently Alfred Lowell decided that we'll was a necessity near his place of residence, and immediately he be- gan the work of sinking one.
 For some reason he desired to per- form the task alone. First he rigged up crane with a swinging boom To this a block was rigged and the bucket hung on the end of one of the ropes. Another rope was fastened to the bottom of the bucket and anchor led to a convenient tree.
 Last Monday morning, when the Gateway scribe visited the scene, MT. Lowell gave an exhibition showing how the contrivance worked He stepped into the bucket and by hold ing onto the anchor rope, lowered himself to the bottom of the we'll, then 21 feet in depth. Filling the bucket he, by standing in the bottom of the we'll, hoisted it to the surface. Then by pulling on the anchor rope, the bucket was swung around to a point 10 feet from the curb and dumped; by slightly harder pull on the rope, the bucket was turned completely up side down and entirely emptied. When it is necessary to return to the surface MT. Lowell gets into the buck ct and by pulling on the proper rope, simply hoisted himself.
