Howsam of Weyburn, Sask., has been a recent guest of Mr. and Mrs. R. Somerville, ~ Mr. Howsam was a member of the delegation that recently waited on the Government petitioning that the wheat price be set at one dollar per bughel. He considers the present bonusing system for non-production of wheat to be poor legislation as with dollar wheat the farmer could pro- "duce ten times the amount of the bo- nus with the proceeds of an ordinary wheat crop of 20 bushels to the acre. In view of the relatively high price for wheat on the American market, there séems to be no good reason for refusing dollar wheat. The Chicago price is now $1.32 per bushel. Pr o> H.

Nasmith Un the evening of February 6th the Grade XI English class sponsored a Victory Banquet in which they enter- tained, as their guests, other pupils o1 the High School. At first glance, this might seem to be a rather far- fetched method of teaching English. the banquet, however, had a dual purpose. In the first place it was to stimulate the sale of- War Savings Stumps and Certificates, In the second place it was to give some of the pupils a little experience in mak- mg speeches for special occasions, such as, chairman's remarks, propos- ing and responding to toasts, making a speech of presentation or acceptance for rewards and giving an address. It was carried out in detail with all the seriousness attached to a more elaborate banquet. ) Special programs, appropriate for the occasion, were made by the pupils. Within thé covers of these programs were the menu for the banquet and the order of the pro- gram which was to follow the meal. Toasts were made to the guests and the services including the Army, Navy and Air Force, and all were responded to in admirable fashion. There were also some presentations made. These were War Saving Stamps which were given by the form teacher to the pupils who had prepared and delivered before the morning assemblies of the | High School the best speeches on Can- ada's War Effort and methods of boosting the sale .of War Savings Stamps and Certificates. The students who had-the honour of receiving the awards ~ were Beth Griffen, Clare Glass, Marie Armstrong, Gloria Hard- ing, Irene Mulligan and Wilmot Phair, The main speaker of the evening was Beth Griffen who gave an appropriate address, entitled "Lend for Victory". Clare Glass ably and graciously per- formed the office of chairman. Credit goes to Miss Spooner who supervised the undertaking as an English com- position project and to Grade XI for the success of their Victory Banquet. On Friday 13th at 3.26, Grade -X will be in charge of the Literary So- ciety program, It is divided into two sections: first, a one-act play entitled "A Photographer's Troubles"; second, two musical selections by Grade X. A series of talks is being given in the morning 'assembly periods by the students of the school. These talks, entitled, "A Fact a Day About Can. ada", portunity for platform speaking and also to give the rest of the school some insight into the Imporianee of our country.
