Notes Ad Optima By Irene Mulligan The pupils. of grade XII English Class have decided to undertake a war project in the form-of a letter written at regular intervals to form- er "old boys" of P,P.H.S. now on overseas service. Now that the Chris- mas examinations and holidays have fallen into the limbo of the past, we take heart at the prospect of turning over a new leaf with the beginning of 1943, We are full of good resolutions many of which may perish by the roadside, but we do hope that this firm resolve to write the "boys" will meet a kinder fate. Our first effort was made this--month and letters were posted on January 15th. The next letters are to be ready for February 15th. We realize what it must mean to be at a distance from kin and friends. make former P.P.H.S. pupils remem- ber us question marks they used to know and bring them back to the old familiar scenes of high sto) days at Port Perry. At 8.15, on the evening of Friday, grade XI under the direction of their class teacher, Miss Spooner, will as sume responsibility for the program. It will consist of two, one-act plays, "Brothers in' Arms" by Merrill Deni- son, a Canadian play in the Canadian manner, and "The White Phantom" by Wilbur Braun, a mystery of the hair- raising type, to judge from the screams and other sounds issuing from the school auditorium after school houts the last two weeks. There will be an admission charge of 25c. for adults and 15c. for children, The program will . be followed by a few {hours of dancing. A basketball game and dance will be held in the High School on Saturday evening, January 23rd. The basket- ball game is scheduled to commence at 8:15 in the gymnasium. The com- Ss. 'peting teams will be a team of town 5. boys and a team of school boys. Con- . » sidering the players who aré expected to participate, an exciting game can be assured. Dancing in the auditorium will follow the game. charge will be 25c.

We trust these letters will}: January 29th, merely a week hence, |- The admission |- Even cosmetic companies realized that when they designed special cosmetics to match service uniforms. Now, how, you might ask, can a woman show her femininity under those service clothes, Sir James Bar- rie's famous -line about a woman's charm explains it and that is, "It's a kind of a bloom on a woman." To understand this fully you should be in barracks and see the stern well- tailored sergeant-major, a vision in satin dressing gown with a case of delectable cosmetics in her hand, | According to a census taken men claim army training is giving Cana- ness that they lacked as a result of staying up late at nights while in civilian life. In Soviet Russia a famous woman pilot told a reporter that nedrly all the girls in the Russian Air Force are married and she added their husbands were proud of them. There is no show of masculinity in war plants, In fact, it took a cosmetic bar to bring war production up thirty five per cent. in a few weeks, | The conversation of a group of girls in a service mess or war plant canteen is of families, clothes, hair-do's and most important, their husbands or fiancées, * Just because there is a war on and women are taking part in it doesn't mean there is any less hand-holding. It is just that "on the job" the girl in uniform and in the war plant has learned to think of her work. MARRIED KAUFMAN-PARKER Solemnized Monday morning, December 28th, 1942, in the sanc- tuary of the Church of Christ the King, was a prétty ceremony, uniting in marriage Marguerite Frances Parker, daughter of Mr. Jand Mrs. Wm. Parker, Sudbury, to Cpl. John Dawson Kaufman, stationed with the R.C.E, at Lethbridge, Alta, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Kaufman, of Toronto. Rev. Father J. M. Leacy per- formed the ceremony. The bride was attractive in a street-length frock of bridal blue with black accessories, and a cor- sage of Talisman roses and for- get-me-nots. She was attended by her sister, Miss Irene Parker, R.N., of Detroit, Mich., attired in a black afternoon ensemble, the pale blue collar and cuffs of which were trimmed with seed pearls. Her accessories were black, and she wore a" corsage of pink roses and forget-me-nots. Clifford Parker, brother of the bride, was best man. A wedding breakfast was serv- ed at the Nickel Range Hotel, following the ceremony. Pink tapers and snapdragons decked the table, which was centered by a three-tiered wedding cake. A reception was held at the home of the bride on Riverdale Drive, during the afternoon and evening. Cpl. and Mrs. Kaufman left on the evening train for To- ronto, where they will spend their honeymoon. --Sudbury Star --_-- te Active Service List of Port Perry, Reach & Scugog On Active Service» Overseas Trooper Fred Colbear, 11th Army Tank Battalion.
