Perhaps some oi the students will be inspired ta some day take part in the debates they saw put on in the House af Commons. The other film was even more unusual in that it was written in French. Les Miserables by Victor Hugo is not unfamilian ta anyone but having it in French does not clanify it any. It wasn't as bad as that bowevcr. Ail the upper sehool studenta bave read it in French and many others have read it in English. Before it began, pamphlets wene distributed' which explained the setting and gave a bnief outline ai the story. The pic- ture was projected in three reels which gave one a chance ta read the pamphlet and keep up ta date. At the end of the second reci. there was a five minute break which might be classed as a sev- enth inning stretch. Second forin treated the whole school ta a slight snack since they had a little too much food at their party the night before. Well, today Is the last day of sehool until a week from Monday. To-night the Literary Society is sponsoring the "Easter Prom" at the High Sehool Auditorium which, by ail reports, will be quite the thing. Oh yes!

The 1,500,OOOth telephone niay be ane af the three scheduied ta be installed in Bawmanville ta- day, accanding ta A. A. Gillespie, local managei. Reviewing the growth of the Bell facilities in the post-war period, half a million telephones have gane into service sînce the beginning af 1945, which is equal ta the increase for the 21-year periad from 1923 ta 1944. The mil- lion and a quarter mark was reached in August, 1947, and in- stallation has proceeded at a record pace ever since. Each month 12,000 new telephones are being installed to meet the con- tinuing high demand. In the finst three months af this year the sys- tem bas added 37,000 telephones. The backlog of applications for service remains high with 82,000 waiting in Ontario and Quebec. Here in Bowmanville thene are 119 orders .to be filled, Mn. Gil- lespie said.
