It is decidedly an important issue that the senool grounds be made to look beautifui vecause enâ€" vironment has a great deal to do with the feelings of the students toward their place of learning. Tournament May be Held Between Clubs A student‘s club to engage in the beautification of the grounds is to be crganized under the supervision of Mr. W. O. Langdon. A club of this nature should be able to do a great deal toâ€" wards improving the appearance of the school grounds and it will also instil in the members a knowledge which will be of use to them in later life. The club will also arrange for suitable deâ€" corations for Coranation Day. St. Matthew‘s Men‘s Club Considering the Matter. Arnprior Chronicle: A. D. F. Campbell just was not taking any chances in the viceâ€"president‘s bonspiel; tucked a wishbone in his pocket and carried it through the two final games. And his rink won the prizes. Another decision which will be beneâ€" ficial in many respects is the formation ol a nutrition course, to ‘be instituted next autumn under the supervision of the Canadian Red Cross. The course will last for eight weeks and the classes will be held one night a week. The usual general business followed ccnsisting of the minutes being read and passed, and the discussion of salarâ€" ies and monthly accounts. The regular business meeting of St. Matthew‘s Men‘s Club was held on Monday evening and some time was spent in arranging for the meeting next Monday evening when St. Paul‘s Club from South Porcupie will be their guests.

Sims of Coâ€" balt, who is moving from North Bay to Kirkland Lake in a short time. They are thinking of grranging tourâ€" raments at St. Matthew‘s and the idea shcould be received with enthusiasm. A. G. Bridger, who for the past four vyears has been mining editor of The Rcuynâ€"Noranda Press, left that poâ€" siticn last week to join the staff of Bidgocd Kirkland Mines in the Kirkâ€" land Lake camp. Mr. Bridger who was amongz those pioneering Cobalt, Porcuâ€" pine and cther mining camps in this North, did an unusually able job for the Rouynâ€"Noranda Press, whose mining news has gained the deserved reputaâ€" tion for authenticity and knowledge ¢f the situation.
