provides for the younger members of the School who live in that district.
The past year has been a full, but for most people, a satisfying one, for both in sport and study we have had moderate success The leaving results showed 32 passes out of 33, and the junior were almost as satisfactory.
Last year the Alliance Francoise examin· ations were quite successful from our point of view since many passes and several distinctions were gained in Grades IV· II. Elizabeth Plaistowe is to be congratulated on gaining Third Prize in the State for her Division II paper.
We have continued as usual to support our four overseas protegees, to whom we have sent this year a parcel of food and ciotbing as well as the annual cheque of £13/2/6 to each child. The total amount collected for our Relief and Cot funds dur· ing last year were: Relief, £75/4/10 and Cot fund, £85.
Among the highlights of 3rd Term, 1947, was the revival of a pre-war institution, the School fete, from which by cake stalls, produce stalls, work stalls, tea and all those things which go to make such a function a success, we raised £200 .
Our annual Sp eech Day took place in the Co ttes l oe picture theatre on Thursday afternoon, De cember ll. This event was especially remarkable for the extra excite· men! produced by having our songs re· corded for broadcast transmission . Under the able direction of Miss Hutchinson the performance went off without a hitch. We had a distinguished visitor in Mrs . Ross McLarty, wife of the Premier of W A., who distributed the prizes after making a short but interesting speech .
Not least among the events of the new year was the opening of the Junior Branch in Victoria A venue, Claremont, which now
The beginning of 1948 saw several changes in staff. We were sad to say goodbye to Miss Hope, who has been our French mistress for many years, and is now in France. We wish her happiness in her new occupation We also missed Miss Woods, our capable history teacher. Among those we welcomed were Miss Swan, Miss Smith, Miss Jolliff and Mrs Molyneux. We were happy at the return of our former invaluable languages mis· tress, Mrs Robertson. Unfortunately, she suffered a severe illness towards the end of First Term and has been unable to resume her work among us
We would like to convey our deepest sympathy to Betty Hay, a member of last year's Leaving Form, whose mother died last April. Mrs. Hay was a very popular mistress among the classes in the Junior School.
Owing to the Rev . Mr. Baird's departure to the Eastern States, his place as School Chaplain has been taken by Rev Mr. McMasters, minister of the Ross Memorial Church.
Members of the A.S.C.M. were interested in the talks given by Mr Ron Sparks and Miss Beryl Sweetman, West Australian delegates to the Oslo conference of Chris· !ian Youth, and by the films taken at the conference of the buildings, conduct of the meeting and the many nationalities repre· sen ted.
On March 18, for the first time for many years, the House Swimming Sports were held, at Claremont Baths Everyone ex· celled themselves both in the water and out of it but Ferguson gained an easy first to Stewart, Carmichael and McNeil. •
During this month the School, like every· one else, was excited at the prospect of the Oliviers' visit, and on the afternoon of
Wednesday, 24, marched off en masse to see the special school matinee of Sheridan's "School for Scandal." Our hopes were more than satisfied by the splendid performance which is too well known to describe.
The main event of Second Term was the three play evenings which were conducted at St. Luke's Hall and in the gymnasium for the July Appeal for children. Each class performed a one-act play, and altogether we raised £96. In addition to this we collected during July an extra £64, making the proud total of £160. For the September U.N. appeal for clothing we collected just over 1,000 knitted and secondhand garments, including several knitted rugs. These we set out in the gymnasium during the gym. display which took place at the beginning of Third Term. Under the tuition of Miss Jolliff this display of mass exercises and figure marching was a great success.
The annual School Service was conducted at the Ross Memorial on the last Sunday of Second Term. This went very well, and included an extremely interesting talk by Mr. McMasters, and an admirable rendering of Handel's "Lift Thine Eyes Unto The Lord" by the School choir.
Because of the outbreak of infantile paralysis preventing us from attending public meetings in crowded places, a performance of "Pride and Prejudice" was held at the Cottesloe theatre for the district schools, two days after we returned to School. Jane Austen's novel is being studied by Leaving candidates this year.
The House Running Sports, from Ferguson's point of view were very satisfactory since they finally carried off the colours with 15H- points to McNeil's 148. Carmichael followed with 144 and Stewart with 109 The 50 yards open was won by D. Overington, and the champion runner with 13 points is Janice Drummond.
Despite setbacks like the epidemic of paralysis we have all enjoyed this year with its social events, its excursions and even its examinations. For there are few people who can truthfully admit that beneath their pretentions they do not enjoy the excitement and the tension of an examination with its surprises, its disappointments and its final feeling of achieve-
men! and relief. So may I wish good 1Jck to those taking the pending examinations and those to come, hoping they do as well in the future as they would like to have done in the past.
PREFECTS' NOTES
In the middle of Third Term, 1947, Meg Thomas and Janet Mackenzie were made prefects to carry over with Anne Giles into 1948. A further nine were announced at the end of the Term. These were Katharine Brisbane, Jeannette Davidson, Ethne D'Arcy-Evans, Jean Hayman, Lesley Hooper, Anne Robertson, Joan Stewart, Judith Stewart and Audrey Sutherland. They were to sign the pledge and take office at the commencement of the new School year.
Although we had a promise of a _larger room for our increasing members we were unable to take possession during First Term In spite of the tight squeeze, we managed to fit in until the end of the Term.
During the Term we attended the annual Thanksgiving Service at St. George's Cathedral together with prefects from other secondary schools. The Archbishop being ill his address was given by Dean Berwick.
Towards the end of the term we asked Dr. Summers to afternooon tea. She told us some interesting facts about the schools of today and the numerous problems which arise in them.
Shortly after the beginning of the Second Term we were able to move from our old prefects' room to the new one in the cottage. The room is about twice as large and much lighter than the old room; we are all now able to meet in the room at one time comfortably At mid-Term it was decided to make two new boarder prefects as there were only three at this time to do the work in the boarding house. Also, our numbers had decreased when Jan Mackenzie had left at the end of First Term to take up a positio n as governess on a station in the north-west. The boarders chosen were Helen Twine and Beverley Wilson.
The School dance was held at the Myola lub Hall on the last Friday of Term and s a great success. We must thank all th mothers for the time they gave up to de orale the hall and to getting the supper y for us.
the second last day of Term we inDr. Summers to afternoon tea in our spac ous new room, in honour of the Scho l's birthday, the following day. Althou some of our number were unable had an en joyable after-
As he fear of infantile paralysis kept most us out of public places it was almost impossible to have any outings during e Term. However, we hope that this Ter we will be able to do something together
At th beginning of this Term six of the prefects went to the p l ay, "Enduring as the Cam hor Tree," performed by the senior girl of St. Hilda's. We must congratulate t em on their excellent production.
In conclus on we must congratulate last year's prefe s and the rest of the Leaving Form on the excellent results obtained in the Public fXaminations. We wish all those sittin<JI this year either for Leaving or Junior, th,e best of luck and hope that they will be able to retain the high percentage of passes gained in last two years.
CARMICHAEL HOUSE NOTES
" Play The Game."
This year swimming sports were held for the -first lime for many vears. Congrots to Ferguson for a well-fought victory and to June and Anne as champion swimmers. The l ast few races proved very exciting and the fina l result, a draw between Carmichael and McNeil for third place was much to mutual satisfaction. Margaret Chaffins and Darrell Foster did much to help the House. Margaret winning two even ts and Darrell breaking a record.
Congrats. to Stewart for first place in life-saving. Buck up, Carmichael, and see if next year we can raise ourselves from third position.
Stewart also gained first place in tennis, but we managed a close second due to the efforts of very strong -16 and -14 teams. The -16 team lost only one game out of 72 and deserve great praise! See if we can't win the tennis next year and regain our former reputation.
Although last in hockey it was not through lack of enthusiasm or effort on the part of the team and their able captain, Helen.
For the first lime in many years we won the basketball. Members of both A and B teams were enthusiastic and eager. Practices were attended regularly and every player deserved credit. The least said about sing ing the better. Last, both terms is nothing to talk about. Let's try and reverse the position this term.
The same applies to tidying the grounds. A little more energy and voluntary help would change our position a lot.
Marks for work First Term were very good but unfortunately congrats. must go to Stewart Second Term. Our position now is second but we still have a good chance of keeping the work shield in the House if everyone tries hard.
Best of luck to all for the athletic sports and to those sitting for Junior or Leaving at the end of the year.
Remember always to try hard. It's the effort that matters, really, and always live up to our motto, "Play the Game."
McNEIL HOUSE NOTES
This year we were lucky enough to have swimming sports, and although we have some ou tstanding swimmers, the average McNeilite does not like the water. Congratulations go to Anne Forman, who tied with June Gill (Ferguson) for champion swimmer, also to Jill Underwood, our only representative to break a record. We are thankful to have Anne and Fay to represent us in the inter-Schoo l diving and swimming, respectively. Our heartiest congratulations to Ferguson for its excellent win, and at least we were not alone in the doubtful honour of coming last. The least said the better about our life-saving, and should a member of our House be in
7
danger of drowning, let us hope that a Stewartite is close by to lend a helping hand .
Although McNeil was represented in the School tennis teams, our House playing was not up to the mark. We certainly felt the absence of our former champion, June Lynn. Congrats., Stewart, good work, but buck up, McNeil, and try to do bette r next time, as we have some promis i ng players.
Unfortunately, our efforts at sport cannot be used as an excuse for our far from brilliant efforts in School work. We have a few hard workers, but these are not enough to offset the slackers. Work hard McNeil, and see if we cannot surprise the others.
Although we made a very good effort Second Term as songsters, we are not tops ye t, so keep up the good work, McNeil, and next year show the School where the talent is. Judging from the efforts heard coming from the bathrooms in the boarding house, we have a future prim'a donna somewhere in our midst.
There was great enthusiasm in that most arduous sport, tidying the grounds, during Second Term, and it is very gratifying to be able to say that our bad reputation gained during First Term was lived down. Next Term, show our opponents that we really are a tidy Housel
The h ockey had an exciting finish, as we tied for first place with Stewart, last year's winners. Thanks very much, Jan and Yvonne, for yo.ur capable captaining We hope that our on-coming junior p l ayers will practise hard and keep up this year's standard. Enthusiasm in the backetball was not quite eno u gh, and we definitely need more practice, McNeill Good work, Carmichael, as you deserved to come top .
In all the In te rschool teams, McNeil has been represented this year, but t he r e is still the ne e d for mere co-operation and enthusiasm shown throughout t he House.
As you can see from the foregoing, McNeilites, we are very far from being the perfect House, so hop i n to it and show what you can really do l
Remember our motto--Bua i dh No Bas"Victory or Death."
FE RGUS ON HOUSE NOTES
Last year, with Anne charge, Ferguson gained Champion House and Sport. however, I am afraid we will not well unless we ge t down to work really try h ard. So, Fe r guson, ease, please pull your weight and see f we can do some thi n g about it.
Fi rst of all, the r e were the lenni competitions. I think the less said aboyt them the better where we are concer rr, d. but with Stewart it should be a pet ,_s ubject. Congratulations, Stewart, for corr, ing an easy first. [
A more pleasing result was / that in swimming, where we came firs (. It was really encouraging to see the e husiasm of the girls even though I did actically shout myself hoarse at the bat on practice days. One of the joys of y life was the way the crocodile team w their race without the least bit of practi . Ferguson shou l d do particularly well n the swimming in future years as th have some very promising young swim
We were not as lucky in he basketball, but the teams fought hard ·all the way and through swift team-work/ we managed to win every match. Howeyer, we came second in points to Carmich d el, who have a special advantage in their goal. Keep up the good work, Fergusonites and see if you can gain on your goals next year.
Great enthusiasm shown for House hockey so the matches were always exciting. In sp it e of Beverley's keen interest in the team, Ferguson only came third. Congrats . to McNeil and Stewart who tied for first place.
Having dealt with sport, we now come to the work department. I am very much afraid that Ferguson is sadly lacking in brains, but I think if we all tried a little harder we might bring ourselves into third place. One never knows, and miracles do happen sometimes.
There seems to be more enthusiasm now wit h regards to ground-tidying. I wonder if it is enthusiasm or conscience. Much to my amazement we came first, F irst Term and second last Term, so keep it up. Try to get 10 every day next Term. Fer-

Ab
guson came in the same positions lor singing also, but be careful not to Jet the position drop.
Next Term I hope you all excel yourselves at sport, that is, athletics and especially in School work. Good luck in your Junior and Leaving examinations and also in the future to the girls who are leaving at the end ol the year, and remember always to keep your motto "Toujours en Droit."
STEWAR T HOUSE NOTE S
" Per Ardua Ad Alta."
For the first time lor several years interHouse swimm ing sports were held and Stewart started the year well by coming second to Ferguson but was able to take :first place in life-saving. Congrats. to all t hose who passed their !He-saving tests.
Success attended our ellorts in the tennis teams. A pleasing feature was the keenness ol the players and as there are many promising juniors, Stewart should be able t o retain !irs! place next year.
In spite ol the early promise in our eUorts in ground tidying and s ing ing we slipped in both !rom second place in First 1'erm to third place in Second Term. Only by everyone doing her bit can we improve -so see what can be done this Term.
First Term's work marks were very pleasing, Stewart gain ing a close second to Carmichael. Second Term res u lts were excellent and we now have a lead ol sixteen !rom Carmichael, so keep up the good work and see il the Work Shield can be ours.
In hockey, too , our team was victorious, Stewart and McNeil ty i ng lor !irs! place. We were very sorry to lose Jan Mackenzie, a keen and able hockey player and runner.
· The basketball results were very disappointing and a great deal more practice is needed and more enthusiasm shown.
Congratulations to the other Houses on t heir wins during the year.
Altogether we have had a very sucessful year and have been well represented in School teams and have had live School prefects.
It's up to every Stewart to make their House Champion House, so all play your part and Jive up to the House motto, "Per Ardua Ad Alta"-By Work to the Highest.
HOLLAND-SIN G APORE
In 1936 we went !rom Holland to a new home-Singapore.
We embarked !rom Antwerp on a Swedish steamer which had accommodation lor only 12 passengers. From there we sailed to Hamburg to collect cargo.
There was 20 deg. of frost and the snow lay a foot deep. On account of the cold weather we could not go ashore. From there we continued to Algiers, and coming into harbour we were attracted by the sight of white houses built i nto the mountains and gleaming brightly in the sunshine. Algiers is a cosmopo litan tow n , the main language spoken being French b u t we saw sailors from all over the wor ld. We spent one day here and then journeyed to Marseilles, and then on to Port Said at the entrance to the Suez Canal.
From Port Said we steamed through the Red Sea to Port Sudan, where we went ashore. This is one of the hottest places on earth, with a temperature of about 12 0 deg. F. at noon. We were very glad to leave this port and sailed to Colombo, the capital of Ceylon. We spent a couple of hours on sho r e, and visited the bazaars where we bought the choicest fruits wh ich the country produces-mangoes, mangostines, papayas, etc.
Then on to Singapore, during which journey we saw nothing but air and water. The harbour of Singapore is very beautiiul, and there are hundreds of ships from all over the world, as well as Chinese junks and native prahus.
Disembarkation was very easy because there was no import duty except on auto· mobiles, liquor and tobacco, so it took us only 10 minutes to gel clearance through the customs officials.

Matron Bell left us at the end of 1947 after many years' service to the School. We gave her a crystal bowl as a parting gift and our best wishes for her future.
We welcome Matron Pusey to the boarding house in her place.
The 1947 boarding house included quite a large number of "Leaving" girls, who in consequence, left! Their places wers taken by a few seniors and a number of juniors.
Most of the First Term was taken up in training for swimming sports and the life-saving examinations. The boarders did not shine very brightly in the sports but they were better represented during Second Term in the hockey field. Nearly the whole of the A team was composed of boarders.
Much to our delight the season began just after Easter - earlier than usual. Second Term began badly with the outbreak of poliomyelitis. Dancing classes at Scotch were banned, much to the sorrow of the sub-Leaving girls. However, we were allowed to go to their play at midTerm-our first outing-and went in full force. The precautions against that disease were certainly effective but unfortunately Judy James and Audrey Sutherland went down with appendicitis right in the middle of the hockey season. "Steve"
scared us by going down with chicken pox but luckily was an isolated case.
The School dance caused a flutter towards the end of Term. The weather was disgusting so the School hired a taxi for transport. The first car load-there were three-arrived somewhat early and sat on the doorstep singing "Open the Door, Richard." However, the dance was a huge success.
There were few dormitory feasts at the end of Term as the collections raised were donated to the appeal for the starving children in Europe-a most appropriate suggestion on Doctor's part.
In Third Term the same restrictions prevailed but were lighter if anything. We were pretty busy with the gym. display and House sports at the beginning of Term. A picnic to Darlington was arranged by the School, which, in spite of the demurring beforehand, was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. There was only one serious casualty though many of the girls had their spirits dampened.
In spite of the restrictions it has been an enjoyable year. After all, there's ao life like boarding school, is there? We wish to convey our thanks to the members of the staff and hope that next year will be even more successful than the past one
The hockey season began earlier this year, soon after Easter, and was a great success, although at the beginning it looked as if the J.P. scare would ruin any hope of matches.
On the whole, the team seemed younger this Term, and it was with general despair that we said "goodbye" at the beginning ·of Second Term to our star player and last year's captain, Jan Mackenzie
Apart from the Mistresses and the Old Girls, St. Hilda's was the only girls' team which we played, although the "B" team played Training College "C" team twice. The matches against St. Hilda's were most enjoyable, and so were the refreshments supplied after the last one. This match was a very good one as St. Hilda's were leading 5-4 till P.L.C. "pulled up its socks" in the last two minutes, and broke through to score two goals.
The team gained much experience in its numerous matches against teams of boys. We played three matches against Christ Church. The first match was rather a walkover against us, but in the second match our team really excelled itself to draw 4 all. The shock of this was almost too much for our keen coaches, who never tired afterwards of asking why we could not always combine and defend like that.
We played Scotch College twice, but did not play as well either time as we could have. Both sides will no doubt remember the matches, owing to the number of casualties-! believe one girl still thinks her nose is broken!
The first match again Staff they won 4-3, but although they turned out in full force for their second match, they failed to score by fair means (or foul).
The Old Girls played us twice-the first time they beat us, while the second time our whoie team played very well to beat them 6-2.
Modern School Boys "A" team played us twice, both matches being absolute walkovers for them. If anyone really wishes to see the humiliating scores, they may look at the end of these notes. All the same, we thoroughly enjoyed the matches and appreciated their marvellous stickwork and technique.
Audrey Sutherland, our left-half, had an appointment with appendicitis half-way through the Term, so Pat Graham very ably filled her place. The team seemed to deteriorate towards the end of Term, but probably that was the approach of the School dance which provided other diverting interests.
The "B" team did not have many matches. so we wish them better luck next year, although they played two very good matches against St. Hilda's, and also put up a very good show against Modern School Boys "B" team.
Lastly, I should like to congratulate the whole team on its excellent season and to thank Miss Jolliff for her patience and perseverance with us, also Mrs. Cusack for her encouragement and help.

TENNIS
Owing to the fact that no matches could be arranged, nothing of interest took place in this direction this year. However, two teams entered the Slazenger Cup Competion, of which one team succeeded in reaching the sem i-final. A team of Juniors was entered in the Herbert A. Edwards's Cup Competition, which it won. Members of the successfu l team were: L. Einihovici, P. Watson, M. Watson, B. Mills.

Owing to the infantile paralysis epidemic, organised matches against other schools were impossible this year, but Miss Jolliff arranged several friendly matches for us, against nearby teams.
Four g irls remained from 1947's "A" Team and the remaining places were filled by one 1947 B team player and two new players.
Half-way through the Term Margaret Stevenson developed chicken pox, and so was absent for severa l matches. Her place was ably filled by Anne Giles, captain of the · "B" team.
Both "A" and "B" teams were undefeated throughout the season The match against Teachers' Trai!'ing College proved the mos t exciting, the final score being 27-25 to P.L.C.
The Staff v. Girls was easily the most enjoyable match of the season. Consistent rain made the match more exciting and the staff managed to hold the girls until the last quar ter, the girls finally winning by eight goa l s.
As us u a l much enthusiasm and rivalry was shown in House matches. The experience gained by members of these teams will ensure P.L.C.'s high standard
of play in future years.
Tunic colours were awarded to N. Smith and S. Mills, G. Lynn, S. Cary.
Pocket colours were awarded to J. Eggleston , J. Gill, J. Hayman, M. Pearson, M. Stevenson.

Since Interschool swimming has unfortunately no t yet been re-established, various schools held invitation races at their own school sports. P.L.C. was very successful in all these as we came first in every one and gained several records. At Perth College a diving competition was held and out of the six schools competing, P.L.C. gained fifth position.

For the first time in several years House swimming sports were held, much to everyone's satisfaction. The weather and condition of the water were ideal for swimming and life-saving and novelties were interesting and proved successful. The competition was exciting all the way through and, thanks to officials and girls, we all had a very enjoyable morning. The six new records created were breast-stroke -16, freestyle -12 and -10, back-stroke open and -16 and breast-stroke relay. Open champions, J. Gill and A.

At the preliminary meeting held during First Term the following officers were elected:-
Patron-Dr. Summers.
President-Lesley Hooper.
Secretary-Judith Stewart.
Treasurer-Meg Pearson.
Members of the committee were Pat Burns, June Eggleston and Meg Thomas Miss Hutc h inson. '
The first meeting, held in the gym. early in Second Term was opened by the President. Records, kindly loaned by Miss Hutchinson, were played and competitions arranged. At the second meeting, an mterested audience listened to a programme by members.
Jill Meathrel opened with a piano solo. This was followed by songs from B. Birdseye, R. Sinclair, B. Bice, and piano solos were given by J. Bryning, M. Campbell, B. Bice, P. Graham. W. Merry and D. Morgan then played a duet, followed by a novelty tonette item by P. Hodgekin. An old girl, Pauline McCubbing, kindly came a long and played a delightful Debussy
number. We wish to thank all these members for the pleasure they gave us.
The next meeting was held in Baird House and Miss Hutchinson kindly agreed to its taking a party atmosphere, as it was to be the last meeting for the Term. The attendance was exceptionally good and enthusiastic. Gramophone records kindly lent to us by Miss Hutchinson were played, then a competition of musical excerpts was arranged and was won by P. Graham.
A programme of piano solos was given by P. Burns, M. Thomas, J. Stewart, P. Graham, V. Ellis, J. Davy, A. Bolton and L. Hooper. Then afternoon tea, supplied by the members, brought to a close a most enjoyable afternoon.
For our fourth meeting Dr. Summers and Miss Hutchinson welcomed Dr. Breiner, who brought with him members from the Perth Operatic Company. He gave us a very interesting talk telling us the story of the Opera, "Tales from Hoffman," and his artists illustrated it in song. The memory of this visit will be treasured by the girls who are deeply grateful to Dr. Breiner and his artists for their delightful rendering of this well-known opera.
In conclusion I would like to thank Miss Hutchinson for the innumerable times she has helped us throughout the year, and I hope that next year the Club will have the enthusiastic support that has been given to it this year.
GUIDE NOTES
To celebrate Xmas, 1947, Cottesloe district gave a party to their special proteges, Lady Lawley Cottage, in the Brisbane's garden. We did our part by performing a puppet show of "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," which provided amusement at least. Together with games and tea it was a very enjoyable afternoon.
During the Xmas holidays we spent a glorious week at "Seaward," the State camp site, under the able supervision of Miss Mellowship. What was officially a "Schools and Colleges Camp" ended by being a P.L.C. camp, but we all enjoyed ourselves to the utmost. Not the least of the week's highlights was the arrival of our old Captain, Miss Baird, who has spent three years with the G.l.'S in Germany and Poland, earning herself the
name of the Pied Piper of Hamlin. it is needless to say how much we enjoy having her back wi th us.
The activities of First Term were varied. On the 27th February, the pa trol leaders were invited to a camp fire given by our Commissioner for Schools and Colleges, the inexhaustible Mrs. Hodgkin, for 40 Baltic Guides and Scouts. In spite of, indeed, because of the problem of language, we enjoyed ourselves very much.
On Saturday, lOth April, the Cottesloe Local Association gave a garden party at the Training College to raise funds. We were among the guides and scouts who performed in a pageant representing different countries. With M.L.C. we were France, personified by Joan of Arc.
On the 1st May the company went for a hike to Kelmscott. It was a cool, grey day with light, intermittent showers, but just the weather for hiking. Stalking, tracking and nature games provided fun for everyone, and on our way back found ourselves entangled with a Sunday School picnic.
During the May holidays several guides spent two days with Mrs. Horne at her cottage in Kalamunda. The first day was passed at Rocky Pool, where most of the girls amused themselves falling in with their clothes on. However, Dallas's Yakka, "Daisy" came to the rescue. In the evening they made tea over a fire in the shelter of a gravel pit. A camp fire followed and then they rolled themselves up in their blankets to sleep for the night-that is until midnight when the inevitable "midnight starvation" possessed them. Unfortunately, the following afternoon they missed the bus, but whiled away the following 2;f hours by singing to the tuneful accompaniment of the tin whistle.
From Sunday, 23rd May-29th was Guide Week, which was especially devoted to "Good Turns." Unfortunately, the 2nd Cot!. Guides were too modest to tell us abou t their efforts. On the Sunday was a Memorial Service to Lord Baden-Powell.
On Friday, lith June, we gave the Brownies a party, because, owing to an inability to find a new Brown Owl they have had to go into recess. However, we hope to re-open at the beginning of 1949.
The highlight of Second Term was, of course, our birthday which we celebrated
by a laney dress party at ;'Seaward." Our State Commissioner, Lady Lee Steere, was present, as well as Mrs. Blakey, Mrs. Hodgkin, Miss Mellowship and lots of friends and relations. We would all like to thank Mrs. Cottle for her excellent birthday cake and everyone who helped to make the evening a success. The only thing that marred our enjoyment was the absence of our Company Leader, Katharine Bri sbane, who was attacked by appendicitis the day before. Katharine was to be presented with her Queen's Guide Award, the result of two years' work, but Mrs. Blakey made up for it by coming to our Company meeting at the beginning of Third Term.
Our badge work has not continued very quickly this year, it has been so very full. Several stars and proficiency badges were won, but very few second classes. Keep it up, everyone, and we want lots of first classes next year.
We were disappointed that the display during Youth Week had to be postponed because of the weather, but are looking forward to better luck at the end of November.
Good luck to Pat Hodgkin, who is one of the six guides from W.A. who are going East at Christmas to an Australia-wide camp.
YOUNG HISTORIANS' NOTES
This year the History Club was not formed until the middle of Second Term, so the activities of the Club have been few. The following ·were elected as officebearers by the various forms concerned:J. Davidson, President; J. Eggleston, Vice-President. Committee members: S. Morrison, L. Quinton, B. Bice and M. Green. So far, only one meeting has been held. Leaving A and B put on a charade which, much to the amazement of all participating, was correctly guessed. Then a quiz was conducted, and although the eliminating was difficult, Laurel Quinton proved her talent and won the prize.
We hope to have more Club activities this Term, although many will have their time taken up with exams.
In conclusion, I would li ke to thank Miss Swan for her help and interest in the History Club this year, and to wish all those sitting for exams at the end of the year the best of luck:.
MY FIRST IMPRESSION OF HOCKEY
It was the first Friday of Second Term, and I was to be given my first lesson in hockey.
I selected a very stout-looking stick from the rack, and marched onto the field with the air of a veteran. There was to be a trial game, just to see how everyone shaped. I was given a posit ion on the field and the whistle blew. I didn't know what my position was called and people seemed to take it for granted that I knew which way to shoot-my sole aim was to hit the ball, and hit it I must.
"This game is just about my cup of tea!" I thought excitedly. I was considerably dashed to find that to hit the ball was more easily said than done, and that I invariably missed it.
Suddenly I saw it coming. I put my foot out gingerly to stop it and received a stinging blow on the ankle. I let out a yell and l ooked around for the sympathetic murmurs that usually follow an accident-they did not come-my opponent was by now a cloud of dust on the horizon.
I next tried waiting for someone else to stop the ball, but that wasn't frightfully successful either-! just wasn't in the race. It wasn't until about te n minutes later that some rash person flicked a ball to me.
"Now for it!" I th o ught. This shot I resolved to make so hard, that the very goalie must dodge in sheer fright.
There was the ball. I lifted my stick high above my head. There was a shout of "Sticks!" and someone said cutting l y, Who d'you think you are; Von Nida?"
I tried to ignore these ribald remarks and took careful aim. No one tackled meth&y just waited for me to miss it. As I swung downwards, three things happened: I severely ricked my neck, the ball trickled along despondently for about a yard, and my stick gave someone a nasty crack on the head.
I closed my eyes in anticipation. I could imagine the dark looks of my team mates and one peep at the already purpling eye of my captain just crumpled me up.
Mumbling a timorous apology, I limped pitifully but hastily from the field.
I am now one of the School's most enthusiastic basketball players.

ON END-OF- TERM CONCERTS
It was midday, and I lay in a semiconscious state inspired by sun and sandwiches, on an obliging (or was she sleeping) form-mate. Suddenly our siesta was rudely interrupted as with a mighty heave aside of various inert forms, our form captain sat up in our midst. Into our unreceptive pinna (outer ear to you) she poured the dolefu l news that at some rash moment, we had promised to do the end of term concert. Suddenly, that once hopelessly far-off breaking-up day seemed all too close.
With great effort we searched that space between the aforementioned ears, and from thence produced divers brilliant notions. (What was that nasty remark?) With bubbling enthusiasm we planned a series of items which would leave the rest of the School dazed with wonder (well, dazed, anyway). This enthusiasm became noticeably flatter, like other bubbly things, after about a week.
Owing to the pressure of certain matters such as geog., prac. books and essays, which somehow seem to accumulate at the end of term, our star actresses were still feverishly cramming as they went on stage. There they gave forth with scintillating, if slightly tarnished, wit and stirring, if slightly curdled, speeches. During the most dramatic of these, the audience showed a strange tendency to riotous laughter, but they maintained a dignified silence during our "humorous sketches."
Eventually we managed to struggle through a programme crammed with exciting, though wholly unrehearsed incidents. The prompter, hoarse from overwork, hissed her last word, the curtain thudded down for the last time, and the last (and first) clap died away.
But this is not all (was that a groan?) for the actors have still to perform their greatest feat-to leave School dressed respectably (?) with all their own costumes, properties, etc. This achievement requires a watchful eye ("Where do you think you're going in my mother's opera cloak?" -"Hey, that's my blouse you're wiping your make-up off with!").
After a l engthy passage of time (as from half-way through last period, to the bell), the riot of struggling figures, motley (very) clothes, and despairing groans, clears somewhat. Laden forms struggle
off in all directions, their laces glowing. (Who saiJ burnt cork was easy to remove?)
"Did yov enjoy the concett?" we eagerly breathe down the neck of <J fellow traveller. (This is the usual tliethod of conversing in the school bus.)
"Concert• what concert '' she murmurs vaguely. "Oh, did your clQss do the end of term concert?"
P.S. - No·one noticed one less got out of than went into the school
KEEFI
Keefi was the first Chil1lpanzee to be born in Avstralia. Her were Dodo and Samrr!Y· two Chimpan<ees sent from Europe to Taronga Park by Carl Hagenbeck in 1938.
Early in the morning of 4th May an excited keeper reported that cr baby Chimpanzee hod been born d\lring the night and that Dodo was not <:aring for her b b WJ1en 2 o'clock CO.!lle that afterand Dodo still made no attempt to nurse or care for her baDf: Mr. Patten, the cura tor of the zoo, to take Keefi hom&· For the next three months the stove in tJ:1eir drawing rool1J was kept at jungle temperature.
Keefi' s HPS and palms of her hands an:J feet were pink and she black hmr on her hecld but very little elsewhere.
One daf when Keefi W'crs outside an insurance salesman openecl the gate, c;nd walked jm;ntily th€1 woman s1thng in the garcJen kmttmg httle sarments, occasionally pcJUSing to give a gentle rock to the bassinet beside her The salesman approachetl the, woman, hiS hat and said with CI smile:
"Good '?adam, you have an addition to the family?
"Y " /lid the woman. "\lrould you like esl sv, to s ee her?
She liftetl the mosquito covering the bassinet artd the salesman _ forward to peep. H:IS smile was swttlly transformed into a loo:l< of horror. H& leaped backwards and gazed at Mrs. :Patten. It was Keefi whor.fl he saw.
One day'• when Mrs. went shopping, she took Keefi in a slropping basket
covered over. The butcher saw a little black arm shoot out from the basket and clutch in the air. Mrs. Patten just tucked the arm back into place. On Xmas day Keefi was given a special outing. She was taken to the zoo and shown to her parents for the first time since she was born. When 11 months old Keefi was taken back to the zoo. She was nervous and crowd shy so to help her get used to it gradually she went home to the Pattens every night.
Keefi now lives at the Taronga Park Zoo at Sydey in a special room. Mr. Patten's first act on arriving at the zoo is to go to Keefi, and that is why she is known to many as the boss's daughter.

BOARDING SCHOOL BALLADS
"What are the bells a-ringin' for?" said the infant still in bed.
"To turn you out, to turn you out," the duty mistress said.
"What makes you look so white, so white," said the infant still in bed.
''I'm dreadin' what I've got to eat," her next door neighbour said.
"For they're cooking fry and baconYou can taste it all the day.
"The cook's in form for swearin' For you can hear 'im say:
"'They've taken of me kettle off and locked me beans away
" 'So they're havin' fry and bacon this fine mornin' .' "
"What makes the back line groan so loud?" said the prefect on parade
"We're crowded tight, we're crowded tight," the sixth form sadly said.
"What makes the back line girl fall aown?" said the prefect on parade.
"A touch o' cramp, a touch o' cramp," the sixth form sadly said.
"We aren't allowed to lean our backs against the bars behind, For they're making us move forward and very soon they'll find
That they're squeezing of the whole school up, but
I guess that they don't mind, Still, we're moanin' mighty hard on this fine mornin' ."
NIGHT
The stars are shining brightly In the heavens far away
To guide the weary wanderer Un til the break of day.
If you lie awake and listen To the noises of the night
You'll hear the foxes calling Or the owl upon its flight. When you awake next morning And hear the magpies sing They'll tell you of the night-time And what the day may bring.
W. LOTON.
TWO TRAMPS
On the bed lay an inert figure. As he glanced about his friend's shabby room, Willie Jones's dim eyes came to rest in horror on the bed.
Yes, it was poor old Joe-but surely not dead! He shuffled quickly across to the bed, where one glance at the still form convinced him of the dreadful truth Tears of sorrow came into his eyes-he even mumbled a prayer for his old friend. Willie had called at old Joe's room to invite him out for a drink at the local; and now this! He wondered what to do next.
"S'pose I'd better go an' let the cops know," he whispered to himself, his voice trembling. Old Joe had been his best friend. Only last year he had said he was too old to go tramping around the country any more; and so he had rented a cheap back room with his pensioner's money. Then Willie had gone off on the road again, this time without him. Later he had decided to go back and see how his mate was getting on-and this had happened!
He found a sleepy policeman in the station and reported the tragedy; then together they returned to Joe's room. When they arrived, what do you think they saw?
Joe was sitting on his shabby bed with another acquaintance. Between them was the still figure. Joe's voice broke the silence-
"Best Guy Fawkes I've ever seen, Tom, don't you think so?"

HEROICS IN SPORT
(With apologies to Pope)
Behold our school girls garbed in stately clothes
With tartan skirts and legs encased in hose,
Demure and graceful as a full-fledged swan
And eyes that to the angels could belong. By nature they are gentle, soft and sweet
From curly heads to dainty, little feet.
But lo, what dire events to maids befall
When mighty teams contend at basketball!
For House or School they plunge into the fray
And strive with might and main to win the day.
Regardless of the suffering that is wrought
In stirring contests that are known as sport.
For in the heat and frenzy of the fray
All gentle instincts seem to melt away; The well-set locks are strewn upon the grass
As players strive the leathern sphere to pass.
With vicious thrusts their sporting robes are rent, Their comely forms are battered, bowed and bent.
Yet still the ir spirits swell with noble pride , All thoughts of failure by their souls defied;
They rally to their captain's gallant pleas; Their foes are crushed and beaten to their knees.
For, ever in their hour of greatest need, "Labore et honore" is their creed.
V. CONSTANTINE, Sub-Leaving.
AUX ARMES
So all day long the noise of battle rolled, Beneath the cunning, watchful eye of those Who force cold knowledge down the helpless throats
Of those who have no wish or hope to know
The whys and wherefores of dull, gloomy fact.
We're told that anti-cyclones bring the rain, That sines and cosines really do make sense.
Is that a bitter laugh we hear from there. Alas, poor dullard, now we understand. The same emotion rends o u r heaving bosom.
Rebel!
Take up the flag of liberty. Leave bitter search of knowledge, come with us.
Forget that lack of milk may cause a ricket.
Aw, let's go home and listen to the cricket. -Had it!

TO A DOG
Original Poem. DOG LOVER, S.L.A.
Faithful friend of the h u man race, You with your dark and dusty face, Whose pensive eyes do seek the way By which I come at the e'nd of day
All day long in the broiling sun You have brought the sheep home from the run Footsore and weary you seek the shade As the sun sinks down o'er hill and glade.
Content you are to await the thrill Of a scamper with me to the crest of the hill.
After our- frolic we slowly roam Down the winding road which leads us home.
And there, you dearly love to creep Onto the hearthstone and fall asleep. There you may dream the hours away, My faithfu l friend of the night and day.
OLD GIRLS' NOTES
This year has been a very active year for the Old Girls and many enjoyable functions have been arranged by the Committee. The functions themselves mainly !cLawed the programme as set out last year, but it was pleasing to notice a considerable increase in attendance, and it is hoped that those girls leaving School this year will become members.
Now for some news of Old Girls:Kathleen Lissiman passed A.T N.A. with the highest marks in W.A. Congratulations, Kath!
Margaret Morrisby is in London, and her sister Kathleen will be joining her very soon. Val Bailey and Joy D'Arcy Evans are also in England-Val is continuing her musical studies, and Joy is studying Ora· malic Art. Janet Love was married on July 31st in England to Mr. Frank Anderson.
Others who have taken the big step are Margaret Wilkie, Beryl Turnbull, Connie Livermore, Bettine Birch, Deborah Drummond, Lesley Gibson, and we believe that Jopie van Baaren, who is now living in Holland, is engaged, and expects to be married early next year.
Our best wishes go to Joan Abbott, Deb· bie Sanderson, Joan Melsom and Joyce Me· William, who have all become engaged this year.
We believe Jan Martin and Pam Currie are doing nursing this year. Good luck to you both in your new sphere.
The following are some P.L.C. Old Girls whose daughters have been, or, are still going, to P.L.C.:
E. Giles, nee Barker.
E. Drummond, nee lrgens.
J. Hale, nee Blackall.
G. Roberts, nee Lee Steere.

It is hoped to be able to hold a combined Old Girls' Associations' Ball early in 1949 instead of the number of individual dances that are held by the respective Associations during the year. A combined committee is at work, and it is hoped to make the Ball one of the social events of the year and to have debutantes, if possible. So all those bright young things who are planning to "emerge" in the coming year are asked to get in touch with their secretary or a member of the committee for further details.
