- 1 I Year’s Most Events Presented In Ross T H B — BATTALION TT— rz— l Junior members of the Ross Volunteer company found the price of last fall's anguish of in- itation not too great, as last week end they rollicked, with their senior brothers, through three days of fun and pageantry. Exceeding all else in brightness and social good humor were the dances. The first, and most spark ling of all, took place Thursday night—the Queen’s Ball—in honor of Queen Polly Jordon, and her es cort. King Eddie Jarman. The royal pair took their velvet throne at the south end of the mess hall annex, while the Court swayed in to the gentle crooning of Red Mill's and George Hill's orchestra. Later.

Saturday, the week-end reached its climax, with a drill in the after noon. and Farewell Ball that night. Usually, when an organisation announces a certain mot iff for thetr dances we are inclined to laugh up our sleeve. Nirte times out of two, the “woodland scene” turns out to be scraggly bushes, and the ‘ modernistic” merely hay- yrire skyscrapers. Not so the Parisian street of the R Vs!

Orders for sac personal cards Thursday and Prid^r of this week from 1 until 5pm in room 119 of the Main Building, according to H. C. Wandler, chair man of the senior mittee. It is raqt half the amount of the order be paid when it is placed, with the other half to be paid* uoon deliv ery of the order. The cardboard invitations are 24c each and the leather-hound invitations 39c. as compared to 2Sc and 47c for those of last year. Seniors are asked to place their orders on the two days designat ed, as this will be necessary to in sure adequate time for the tx-M workmanship and service. The committee has made arrangements with the engraver for students to furnish their own name plate for additional cards if they wish. Those desiring this service should bring their plate when they make their order. I have my'pipe and I have my thoughts. A gentleman needs noth ing else.—Count Vasco de Gama.
