Sceae I. Form V. Room-Enter most of the form to the strains of a march. Lexie: Shivers, but what'll we do this after- noon? Marjorie: Do you know the exercises? I hope so. We'll need to. Edna: I can look on and ltugh. I wish you luck, though. Bebe: Good luck to you in the match this afternoon, Neste. Jesse: Sh -- ! Don't make so much row, Nesta! [(Noise lessens. Margery: What's the exercise on the rings? Ellen: Two half-turns to a double and un- twist the same. [Enter Kathleen. Kathleen: Talking about gymn., are you? Glory, but we'll need to do our best. [Quiet as Miss Steedman anters. Scene Il. Form V. Room-Afternoon--Present Jessie and Marjorie. f ":'tr Kathleen. Lyle and Ne ta, then Bebe. Kathleen: What are you doing? Mending books? Can't stay to help. Nests: We've just heard the results of the IV.'s competition. IV. ('. won! Lyle: Yes. They got 128 points. So we're *.le first in the school so far. [Enter Ellen. Ellen: You're wrong, Lyle! Miss Brock- way just told me they got 124. So we're first alone. Coming, Nesta? [Two go out. Enter Lexie. Lexie: I've Just heard the results. Let's hope none of the Thirds do better. Beb: Wouldn't it be nice to win something for a change? We've done nothing striking yet. Lyle: We weren't bad at athletics, nor at basket 'ball. And we'll have the Shield next year, too. Then there's swimming yet. Bebe: Nesta played awfully well against Margaret, didn't she? I wonder who'll get the colours this year, Nesta or Ellen?

Although our minds are filled with thoughts of the fast approaching Senior, nevertheless we have spared the time to write our form notes, purely for the benefit of the other members of the school. We shall be- gin 'by wishing the best of luck to the Fourth Forms, our partners In datress. The whole eleven of us have entered for the Sonior, and our one desire is that we may do as well in the exam. as we have already done in sport. We won the Basket Ball Shield after a hard struggle with IV. C. and HIII B.. but it has not yet returned to our room. Last year 'Sixth tied with Fifth, so 'that the present Fifth has claimed it for this term. in tennis we have to play IV. B. in the finals for the cup, and one of our members, Margaret Hay- men, has Just won the Upper School singles championship. In our school athletics we came fourth, ,but were well represented in the Interschool Sports. The end of the year is very close, and although we are looking forward to the holi- days, when the exams. will be over, yet all of us, especially those who have been right through the school, from Preparatory to Sixth, will be sorry to leave, and will ever recall with pleasure the years we spent at school. Scene I. FirstCourt during match V. versus IV. B. Marjorie: Well, this Is the last game. Anyway, we're five points ahead. Jessie: Yes. and Ellen and Lexie won their first match, so we ought to get this. [Pause while the match '! played. 'Jessie: IV. B. have won after all, Gwen. Don't say, "I told you so!" Bebe: I wonder who'll win the finals. VI or IV. B.? Merijorle: It's time we were going. What tram are you catching down, Jessle? [(Excunt all, laughing ad discusing the match.
