The Spike or Victoria College Review June 1914

Olla Podrida

page 37

Olla Podrida.

The Rescue Officers are good-working soldiers of this corps, always on hand when wanted. Ensign Bath and Lieutenant, with music and song, and Captain Stevens, with the brass.—War Cry.

We don't know the Lieutenant; but we should like to meet this Captain.

Engagements.

To-Night!

Thompson-Payne Pictures, Foresters' Hall, at 8 p.m.

To-Morrow.

Supreme Court, 2 p.m.

* * *

Professor Hunter was in the chair, and about twenty new members.—Evening Post.

No wonder the chairs in the common room are always being broken! But how encouraging for the new members!

The two younger bridesmaids wore cream voile dresses, trimmed with silk lace insertion, and wore satin bands around her heads.—John Bull Jr.

Evidently a modern Cerberus or Hydra.

The report and 45 members were present, including balance-sheet were read and adopted.—Evening Post.

We wonder who adopted them.... Are you an "Orphan," P. J.?
