The same applies to the let. In boiling fish such as salmon or halibut, the water should be salted and a little lemon juice or vinegar added to keep the esh light in color.

The third form team t was victorious by a score of 24 to , 16. The play was close throughout, ; with neither team outclassing the other.

There was a good program, consisting of speeches ,a duet, selections from the Orchestra, 2; shadowgraph and the `highland ing.

Newton gave an in- terestling address on Peter McAr- |thur and Olympia Oneschook spoke on Life in a Ukrainian Village." Both speakers are lower school stu- dents who showed that there are ex- cellent speakers in the lower forms. The fourth form paper was read by Lorna McFadgen. Three pantomime-s were well presented, depicting the old Scottish ballads, The Two Sis-' ters o Buinnorie, Edom 0 Gordon, and The Braes of Yarrow. ` On Monday afternoon IIIA. met Form V .in the rst game of the play-offs. Form V. romped away with a 29-17 victory, which leaves them a good margin for the next game. At the end of the first half fth form was leading 15-2. In the second period the third formers came to life and scored 15 points, while the fifth formers just got 14 points. The game was exceptionally fast, and `at times became rather rough. Sandy Ness was by far the best play- Ier, scoring 15 points. Mcillillin scored 8 points and Mclnnis G. For third form, Ken.

The reduction in rates in January - the second reduc- tion within a year - makes long distance telephone service cheaper than ever. You can make it cheaper still by taking advantage of special low rates on anyone calls which are offered during evening hours. From 7.00 p.m. until 8.30 the long distance rate is about twenty-five per cent lower than the day rate. And from 8.30 p.m. until 4.30 a.m. your call will cost you only about half the usual day rate.* Long distance rates are listed in the directory.
