At | long tables, gay with flowers and | streamers of the tri-color, thé girl under-graduates- of "Good old | Queen's" and their guests, amongst |} whom was Miss Charlotte Whitton, Ottawa, president of Queen's * Alumnae, enjoyed their dinner and with the coffee came the toasts, Miss 'Gertrude Milliken, president of | Levana, presided and gave "The| King." Mré. W. E. McNeill, dean of | women, proposed the toast to "The | University," responded to by Miss King. Miss W. Gordon proposed "The Levana Society," and in a brilliant speech showed the import- ant place Levana took in the life of the university. Miss Marjorie Booth responded and referred in her bright speech to the new woman's resl- dence, "Han Righ," saying that the proposition to tax the members of Levana a small sum to go towards the fund would be met with ap- proval by the society. "Our Guests," proposed by Miss Douglas, was re- sponded to by Mrs. Norman Miller and Miss Hilda Laird. The latter who has recently returned from Geneva where she held'a post in the Secre- tariat of the League of Nations, gave _ Rn interesting account of the inner working of the League. Miss Whit- ton gave a stirring speech in which conveyed a message from the Slumnae. She spoke of college tra- dftions, of the origin of the cus- tom .of the students not wearing their caps and gowns until Univer- sity Day, October 16th, and other _ traditions of Queen's student body. . Miss Whitton also spoke of "Ban Righ" on which the work is now be- gun, and the dream of the Alumnae is promised realization in the near (future. Miss Kavanagh played a plano number during the evening, and Mies Anna Corrigan sang, both 'receiving hearty applause.

That some teachers in thé Qntario public schools have drawn the at- tention of school nurses to extravage antly painted faces, and in some schools if a girl is found to be too gally bedaubed, she is set out of the room tp wash her artificial com- plexion. "1 is not so-much a bit of talcum powder I object to," said one principal, "but there are many slips of girls who go in. for a regular make-up, and it makes them rather ridiculous. Probably their mothers do the same thing at home, and fit may not be fair fo blame the girls for Yt all."

Every boy and girl, at some: tinfé*or other, has enjoyed this Jobby, and cer- tainly there are few: so fascinating. To ¥et the best out of it you should make a really serious study of postage stamps, and learm the dif- ferent values of the rarer kinds. By this means you will be able to make careful exchanges, ana you will always enjoy the thrill and longing of hoping 't a valuable stamp---even are never actually luoky. Most children ruin their speci- mens by sticking them down in the album with gum, so that they can never be taken off withqut cutting or tearing the paper. / The correct way to stick them down is to use proper mounts, which you can get from any shop where & you 24g doi they sell foreign stamps.
