RETROSPECT
In the v/eeks ahead of us, we see
swimming, tennis, camping, hiking, and
all the other summer sports of which we
are going to take advantage.
We v/ho
have been at Milne over a period of
years know hov/ fine it is to have a vacation, but WQ also remember the feeling
of gladness which we experience when we
return in September, It's always good
to got back - to see old friends and to
make new ones, to enjoy our classes,
(and even to worry over them a little)
to meet new teachers and now subjects,
ani to spend a nev/ year in Milne, This
year has gone by very quickly, it seems
to me. I remember so easily last winter, vihon v^e were just getting settled
It
back into the Milne routine again,
or
seems as if it were just a month
so ago that we v/ere looKing forward to
Christmas, then to New Year's Day, Then
then
the .7iUin-Sigraa dance came along.
Spring', rjid in no time at all the
S, A, formal. And here v/o are now, studying for exams. Just as quickly as tliat,
it soems to me, the year has flown by,
(Continued in noxt cclumii)
(Continued from column 1)
Of course, wo all hc.ve h£id our
"minor collisions," such us the history
test v/e didn't study for, or that awful
to;.;.chor, or the time we forgot to do
something important, but all in c.ll, I
thinlc we've had a pretty good time.
We are going to miss the Seniors
noxt year, rjid wc suppose that thoy are
going to look fondly back upon the many
privileges that thoy have hcid while workking and playing at Milne, Farewell,
Senlprsi Y/o'v/lsh ^ou the very" best of
everything in your future lives, and
hope that in the other schools or business .that you will be associated with,
you will show to others the high ideals
that Milne has set before you.
Just stop and thinlc a minute. Don't
lock back over the few unhappy moments
you may have had - think of all the
other things which you have enjoyed, and
be thanl:ful for them. It may not go
down in history, but it has been rather
a great year, hasn't it?
EEAR Y E , HEAR Y E !
Come, come, all ye lads and lassies, lot's all get together for a jolly
day of fun tomorrov/J Let's don our most
casual clothes (girls, your slacksl) and
be off to Lyons Lake, which will be cur
rendezvous for the day.
There v/ill
be
mcaiy
competitive
sports, among them, the forty-yard dash,
the hilarious one-legged race, a potato
race, a baseball game, and other diversions to entertain both participants and
spectators. However, it is not advisable to practice for the dash or other
races in the halls of Milne, for some
people are quite sensitive about being
knocked down, and they just wouldn't
understand*
This is the first annual outing,
you know, so let's all show our school
spirit, Milnites, how about it?
LiBR/iRY NOTICE
Watch the dates on the books you
borrow from the library. All books are
duo on June 11. (As usual, books are to
be returned on the Thursdriy before Regents begin*) Students who need books
after this date will be permitted to
borrow them for overnight use.

QUIN:
I'he guotatlorxS which were scheduled
to be from aeorge LicDcnald were dispensed with due to important business.
Officers for next semester were
elected as follows:
President- Lillian 'Walk
Vice Frosident- -Jean Ambler
Treasurer: Barbara Knox
Corresponding' Secretary- Frances Seymour
Recording? Secretary: Lois Nesbitt
Critic: Marjorie Pon'd
IvIistress-of-Ceremonies: Carolyn Hausmann
Marshall: Margaret Charles
A representative from each class
was appointed by the president to assist on the Quin outings Jean Ambler.
Betty Boyd J and Elisabeth Simmons,. Vivian Snyder was appointed to take charge
of the foods.
When most people hear of an autobiography, they think of a very dry,
boringstory® However, personal Histury, by Vincent Sheean, is"a very in"terlTsting autobiogrr.phy of a newspaper
man, Mrc Sheoan attended mr.ny of the
international conventions and other interesting- gatherings.
Wherever there
was trouble, the author of this book v;as
to bo found. He attended the signing of
the Treaty of Lciusanne, the Morocco Rebellion, and a great number of interntional disputes.
Personal History is something rather new in the way of autobiographies; it
hoQids one's attention to the very end,
and one is led thjrough the intriguing
tangle of strange happenings in foreign
lands in a very absorbing manner© I'm
sure that anyone v/ho is at all interested in true adventures thc.t have really
been actual experiences would fine Personal History very interesting to him,
