Let everybody try and get at least one new exhibitor for our fair this year. Sports at High School On Monday, Sept. 8th the annual meeting of the Flesherton High School Boys' Athletic Society took place. About forty boys in all were present, with the last year's Presi- dent, MacLeod, in the chair. The election of officers was held and Jack MacLeod was again elected Presi- dent. Mr. Lawrence was elected as Honorary President, with Geo. .\kins as Vice-President. Alex. MacLean was elected Secretary - Treasurer. Each form elected two representa- tives on the Executive. It was de- cided to organize baseball and hockey teams, as the school has some excel- lent material, and should go a long way. It was decided to hold a field day about the first week of October. It is probable that some other school will be asked to compete, and the boys are already hard at work prac- tising. The boys are asking for the co-operation and support of the peo- ple in their athletic as well as educa- tional endeavors. On Tuesday, Sept. 9, the girls of the High School met and elected their games captain for the year. Eliza- beth Bentham was elected to fill that position. The girls are hard at work practising for the soft ball games, and will also take part in the field day events. Much speedy material is on hand and good teams should re- sult.
