or more pictures to the school, to be sold<br />
at a Grand Auction. The sale was widely<br />
publicized, bpth by posters and through<br />
the contacts of the pupils. All Toronto<br />
knew of Jarvis’ wonderful Picture Sale.<br />
When the pictures had all been assembled,<br />
a number of the students carefully carried<br />
the paintings from the school to the Central<br />
Y.M.C.A. where the public auction<br />
was to be held. The net profit was seven<br />
hundred and sixty dollars. Half the proceeds<br />
went to the painters, the other half<br />
to the school.<br />
The Book Sale was organized by Dr.<br />

Fred Corcoran, 2C<br />
Every morn at half-past five,<br />
Long ere the rest of the world is alive,<br />
My alarm clock rings and tells me it's time<br />
To rise and earn my daily dime.<br />
Throwing papers at steps and door<br />
Is a way of improving my batting score;<br />
I try to aim them straight and true,<br />
And the ones I miss arc very fciv.<br />
Within my paper, what will they find?<br />
News and views of every kind,<br />
I never have time for myself, to see,—<br />
Everyone reads my papers but me.<br />
When I see the last big house appear,<br />
I hurl the paper with a cheer.<br />
I’d gladly do papers day and night,<br />
If the last of the houses was always in<br />
sight.<br />
Arriving home at seven o’clock<br />
I find no one up with whom to talk;<br />
So I sit me down and write this ditty,<br />
And hope the “<strong>Magnet</strong>” will show some<br />
pity.<br />
Hardy in much the same manner. It was<br />
on a smaller scale and therefore held at<br />
a private home.<br />
They were not backward in social life<br />
either, as was proved by the monstrous<br />
Bazaar and Dance held at the school. Even<br />
the desks were removed from several of<br />
the rooms in which the fete was to be held.<br />
Candy and novelties, some of which were<br />
made by the pupils, were sold As an added<br />
attraction, fortune-telling booths were<br />
set up.<br />
You see, Jarvis was just as busy then<br />
as now.<br />
Students Plea<br />
Harold N. Segal, 5A<br />
I find that I’m writing<br />
With heavy, sad heart . . .<br />
1 find that I’m writing<br />
In pain from the start . . .<br />
So please have the goodness,<br />
The graciousness too,<br />
To give me a sixty . . .<br />
I’d do it for you!<br />

John D. Grube, 2C<br />
Oh graceful goldfish gently gliding<br />
In your bowl or pond,<br />
Tropic Isle or coral reef,<br />
Of these were you once fond?<br />
Would you rather swim at ease<br />
With all the oceans yours?<br />
With sharks and myriad other fish<br />
Arid herons from the shores;<br />
Or would you rather stay at home<br />
A Disney picture-show?<br />
Or arc you just as happy here,<br />
In any H-2-0?
