There are a number of students at school who are anxious to learn to dance, a desire which most young people now have. On Friday after- noon from four to five most of the pupils gathered in the auditorium and had an opportunity partially to realize their ambition. Many of the students who can dance took the beginners in hand and gave them instruction as well as they could. Records played on our radio-victrola were the source of our music. The small sum of five cents was charged each pupil to be used for purchasing new records and Var Work. As favorable comments from the pupils were received, we plan to have a dance every Friday after- noon from 4 to b. In last week's notes the Literary and Athletic conveners were stated crroniously.

After the last world war the Canadian government decided to celebrate the conclusion of the war by a public holiday observed under the name of Armistice Day, A bill was passed naming the 11th of No- vember, the day on which hostilities ended. Each year since then we have set aside that day in remembrance of our soldiers." At eleven o'clock in the] morning of November 11th, it has been the custom to observe a two minutes silence and church services are held in remembrance of the fallen. Not until the outbreak of the World War in 1914, did Canada reveal the extent of her loyalty to the Mother Country, or of the loyal effort which she was capable of making. Canada threw herself into the struggle with- out reserve; and while her contribu- tion to the war effort of the British Iimpire seemed small in comparison with that of the Mother Country, for a country of her means and popula- tion," it was magnificent. - To trace here the course of the wai, which lasted for four and a half years, and was fought out on all the seven seas and on a dozen fronts in Europe, Asia and Africa, would be out of place. The part played by Canadians will always be remembered. The First Canadian Division reached France in February, 1915,after the struggle on the western front had passed its first phase. The war had degenerated from a war of movement into a struggle in which cach side faced the other in-long lines of , entrenchments. The Germans hofied to break the deadlock which had {ken place and conceived the plan of aunching a grand attack on the left of the Allied line, opposite Ypres in Bel- sium. On April 22nd, they released against the Canadians and the French colonial troops, who were manning the Ypres sector, long vellow clouds of poison gas. The other forces fled but the Canadians closed the gap and held the breach for three days until rein- forcements arrived. When they came out of the trenches, there was a bat- tered remnant of their original num- bea, Ypres, as the struggle was named, the Canadians were recognized as among the best troops on the western front. "It means more to be a Canadian to- day," it was said "than it did before the sccond battle of Ypres." The re- putation which the Canadians thus won at the outset, they sistained until the end. It was the Canadians who made: many of the most successful attacks in the protracted Battle of the Somme in 1916; it was they who stormed Vimy Ridge in the spring of 1917; it was they who captured the last ridge at Passchendale in the third battle of Ypres in the autumn of 1917 and it was they who constituted the "spear-head" of the British attack in northern France during those hun- dred days" when the Germans were battered back to the Belgian frontier. After the_ Armistice, the Canadians were among those chosen to cross the Rhine and occupy German territory; and the German people had the un- wonted experience of hearing from the Canadian regimental bands the strains of The Maple Leaf Forever and O Can- ada, Next year Armistice Day will not be an official holiday but on that day I am sure we will always remember the heroic deeds of our Canadian soldiers. oP -- -- IN MEMORIAM 4 HOOD--In memory of a dear son and brother, Dick Hood, who was killed November 16th, 1939.
