Posted in different areas of the school, a small notice. There are no identifying marks on these pages, but one trying to remove them would take significant physical effort. The trick to removing the pages from the walls (if one wants to keep it for themselves) is putting freshly chewed gum on each of the four corners.

"To any and all wishing to go out tonight... don't.

"You've seen what happens any time Hogwarts students do a little moonlighting - we get set up, skewered, and sent away.

"Do yourselves a favour and stay inside. Lock your doors, bespell your windows, and whatever you do... don't be sloppy pigs and leave food everywhere. The House Elves serve us, but they are not our slaves. And on a night like tonight, we don't want them out cleaning when there could be something INSIDE THE HALLS looking for a midnight snack.

"Find a book. Find a boyfriend. Find a badminton set. Find something, but don't find yourself outside of the gates tonight. Hogsmeade is no longer welcoming to us because of a few people. Do we really want that extending farther?"

A poster is printed up in the school. This poster is one one of the walls close to the Muggle Studies classroom itself. The quality is top notch - as in it was done by professionals. (If you look, you can see Veloria Migrondale Printing Associates on the right. They are a fairly expensive company to get.) The size of the poster itself is around two meters at its widest point, and one meter tall. You see a diamond shape with the four crests of the Founding Wizards and Witches of Hogwarts across the center. At the top of the diamond shape, there is the crest of Hogwarts itself. At the bottom of the diamond, there are numerous gemstones shown. Each of the gemstones has the name and its base magical property underneath the stone.

"Which one are you? Whether it be your birthstone, your favourite gemstone, or just something you like, there is a crystal or gemstone perfect for you. Sooner or later, everyone realizes whom and what they are in life, so why not show it off? Come to Diagon Alley and find our wares. Sold in only the finest of locales, we are shown in Paris, London, Berlin, Madrid, and even Rome. We are not cheap, for we use only the finest of products. Our employees are taken only from the best schools - Beauxbatons, Durmstrang, and Hogwarts. Nothing less than perfection in every product we release.

"So then, find us now! Whether it be for yourself, or a gift for your friends, families, or loved ones? Nothing shows your dedication better than one of our works. We are looking forward to seeing wearing us today!"

The poster is from Dragsholme and Malahide Works. There is a contact owl post address for both their products and their apprenticing agency. Anyone doing research into the company will find out that they aren't kidding: they do only hire people from those three schools. On top of that, all of those hired from the schools were women, as if they do not feel men can do a good job.
