H, Nasmith On the afternoon .of Friday, Feb- ruary 27th, the Toronto Evening Tele- gram: sent 'its: moving pictures to be shown in the auditorium of 'the High School. This was an opportunity that was certainly worth taking advantage of by all those who possibly could. The prime objective of the pictures was to show the work of the Tele- gram's British War Victims' Fund in those regions which were subjected to severe blitz attacks of the enemy. These pictures also showed the fine organization and training of the Royal Australian Navy and the work of the British 4nd Canadian Navies in con- voying the necessary supplies to Eng- land from the distant parts: through waters made dangerous by the Ger- man submarine menace. Another pic- ture dealt. with the work of the Roysdl Canadian 'Air Force and in it were shown the dangers of thoughtless talk about war work. All this and many more interesting revelations made the picture one to be remembered for a long time. Those who saw it may havé reason to think twice before spending money which could be used to help the victims of bombings with- out incurring any great sacrifice.. . Next Friday, March 6th, there is to be a double-header basketball game at the High School, followed by a dance. "The first game between the High School girls' basketball team and at 7.00 p.m. This game will be fol- lowed by one between the High School boys' team and a boys' team from the town. Both should prove closely con- tested," . The- proceeds realized from the admission fee of 26c. are to be used to help defray the cost of the High School's new Victrola,, which is to be the source of music for the evening. For 'the evening of March 20th sent preparing a program as an en- tertainment to which the public will be invited. Among the items to be presented there will be musical selec- tions under the direction of Mrs. L. Switzer; dances prepared by Miss FE. Shaw, and two one-act plays, "A Distant Relative" by W. W. Jacobs, and "Hyacinth -Halvey" by Lady Gregory, supervised by Miss Spooner. An admission fee of 36c. for adults and 20c. for children, will be asked at the door. To you we extend a cordial invitation, res EDITORIAL (Marie Armstrong, P.P.H.S.) Hens are Now Coming Into Their Own Not until rationing of eggs was in- troduced did people notice and give the mother of the barnyard her full share 6f respect. Everyone has taken her for granted when the morning egg was brought to the table. Since egg rationing has been established, English men have been lamenting the disappearance of their morning "hen fruit", To make matters worse, dleticans claim many hair troubles come from lack of this important, yet hitherto insignificant item on the menu. Just in the short time since the Wartime Food Control Board made this an- nouncement, hair disorders have been assuming the proportions of casualty lists, The so-called "city slickers" will now be tempted to beg the farmer for a precious egg. Yes, the day is coming when the sons of the land can be regarded enviously for his good crop of hair by the "half-bald man of the city". To insure our future hair growth, perhaps we should invite a few hens to take up their abode in that but-of-the-way corner of our backyard, Rationing sugar and shortage of farm labor to hoe the sugar beet crop presents a problem that will need con- sideration if selective service becomes a fact.
