Last term's O.T.C. programme was a larger one than is usual for an Easter Term, but at the same time it was very popular and exceedingly instructive, and we would like to take this opportunity of thanking all those who have helped in any way to make it such a success.

Dickenson, where they took their Certificate "A" Practical exam. All four are to be congratulated on passing, and we would like to take this opportunity of thanking Lt.-Col. V. A. H.
