For style, staying-power and the way it follows your every movement, you'll never find a more satisfying "partner than a Sport Shirt made of Viyella fine twill flannel. In this light, finely woven, soft-textured material there's a reserve of strength you would hardly believe possible. The rich appearance of Viyella 'actually improves with washing'· -its comfort remains unchanged to the last. Possessing the unique advantage of absorbing excessive moisture and radiating it, thereby obviating dangerous, clamminess, 'Viyella' guards against chills when resting after a game,

Thanks

I should like to take this oppor- tunity of thanking my colleagues for the help they have given me In running the school during Mrs. Stark's absence, and for the hard work they have put into the pre- paration for this afternoon's per- formance, a performance which I hope you have all enjoyed.

I should like to add a few words of thanks to the Mothers for all the trouble they have taken in pro- viding such very charming

costumes for the children. We have all appreciated the assistance they have given us in this way, very Imuch.
