Jus-t like to remind you that most
things can he good or had, and that
goes for examinations. Exams can "be
"beneficial if they are used to help
you fill in the gaps in your learning, and if they help you to understand better what you liave "been studying all year. Exams can "be had if
they stimulate you to nervougness
and fear, Practice looking on exams
as an oxDportunity to further your
education.
Believe it or not, they
are designed to help you here at
Milne, not to make life hard for
you.
Good luck and a pleasant summer to you. all,"

v;hen Power is accused of a large robbery
v/ith the rest of a g m g , and is released
from prison on bail, then escapes, and
practically breaks his wif6*s
(Alice
Faye's) heart.
