Editorial Yes, another year has rolled around and another group of aspirant students have almost completed their efforts in the halls of London Normal School. lVe were guided to go there by a smouldering spark of desire to be a teacherfa spark which the masters have so fanned that it now burns brightly. Let us see that this spark does not smoulder, smoke, and die out, but let us at all times be keen and alert to apply what we were taught. This has been one of the most pleasant years of our lives and it now almost lies behind us. As we leave it now, it will be one mingled with feelings of both joy and regret. XYe are sorry that the time has come when all good friends must part. Soon we will be scattered over a wide area far from one another, but we hope the seeds of friendship, sown at London Normal, shall remain firm and steadfast. DONALD SQYIRE. Editor. Principa1's Message To THE CI.Ass OF 194445:- Some of your grandmothers and grandfathers passed through this Normal School in its early days. That you are able to stand on their shoulders to-day was made possible by their pioneer labours in teaching. They were individu- alists in their work, you begin as a member of a professional organization. They were inclined to be more arbitrary in government, you will be more democratic. Their aim was largely the imparting of knowledge, yours is the training of citizens. The curriculum to-day is much more child-centered than formerly. The home and the school both realize much more fully to-day the need of hearty and intelligent co-operation. Your grandmothers married and raised families and so we hope you will eventually. And we hope also that, because of your earnest teaching efforts, your grandchildren will be enabled to stand in turn upon your shoulders. DR. C. E. MARK.

The Second Term Literary Society The second term Literary Society Executive conducted its lirst meeting on january 26, 1945. Each programme has a special theme. May we recall some of them to your memory?- Irving Berlin, Stephen Foster, St. Valentine, St. Patrick. Think back to the stories told, in their own inimitable style, by Edythe Percy, Betty Thompson, Margaret Knowles and Mar- garet Bell. Remember how we discovered the excellent Literary talent when each Form contributed a love parody on a popular song at the St. Valentine's meeting? Another afternoon was made interesting by Mrs. Calvert's illustrated lecture on Glimpses of Nature through the Eye of the Camera. Our Hnal programme of Truth or Consequence displayed the talent of both the students and members of the staft. This amusing entertainment was conducted by Betty Thompson. When the world was saddened on April 12, by the passing of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, a memorial was arranged by Form III, under the direction of Mabel Morgan. Throughout the year we have been very grateful to Muriel Rogers for her kind co- operation as pianist. Although this is not a complete record of this term's programmes, we hope that it will serve as a reminder of the pleasant hours spent in Literary Society meetings on Friday after- noons.

After Hours Kin- dred Hearts Move nn, Outside peeping in. lVatch the Birdie. faciai Heart Hop Hearts were certainly hopping on the evening of Thursday, February 15, when the Literary Society sponsored a Valentine Dance. Adding to the festivity of the evening were the critic teachers, portraying their second childhood at games in the Library. Vllhile these events were in progress boys and girls with one accord flocked to the brightly camouflaged Music Room where dancing was in progress. Although the ladies were in the majority, the gentlemen had a wonderful time doing the rounds. Following all these strenuous activities a sumptuous and plentiful supper was served by smiling waitresses. Miss Facey and her entire committee gave us all a splendid party and an enjoyable evening. MARGARET BELL. Yet To Come We have had a few entertainments through the year, but the best one is yet to come. A Maytime banquet will beheld on May 7. At this will be revealed the winner of the election for May Queen. After the banquet, there will be a dance, at which we all expect to have a wonder- ful time. But why do we have this banquet near the end of the term, you ask? The answer is thisfto supply us with enough morale to write our examinations. The days of testing will be from May 28 to june 1. Then! Hurray! Here come the full-fledged teachers' DOROTHY E. CHANDLER. Ha1lowe'en - Hallowe'en Season found the students of L. N. S. scurrying about in great activity. Our first big social event was to take place. The Glee Club was to present an operetta, so the Student Parliament followed it with a Hallowe'en Party. The music room was appropriately decorated and everyone was in festive spirit. Dancing for the evening was held in the music room, while games were played in the library. Margaret Bell, President of the Student Parlia- ment, seemed to remember every detail necessary for the success of a party. The active service boys who attended, echoed the feeling of the students-never had they spent such an enjoyable evening. ETHELWYN DANIEL. Visitors During the school year, many capable men and women spoke to us on varied subjects. Through their visits we learned many interesting facts about the education of our land and our friendly allies. ' Some of our visiting friends were: Dr. Chen, recently returned from China, Dr. Struthers, Inspector of Auxiliary classes, Dr. Amoss, who paid us two enjoyable visits, Dr. Stanley jones, speaking to us on Evangelism, Rev. Colgrove of Western University, London, Rev. Dickson, recently returned from Formosa, Miss McCallum representing the O.E.A., Mrs. Calvert of London, Dr. George Little of Toronto, Dr. Kingston of Western University, and Dr. Stearn of McMaster University, Hamilton. All these and many others we welcomed to our midst and enjoyed. MARGARET BELL. Page Sixteen ::P4wJLw Boy s' Athletics Owing to the lack of the male species in this institution for the training of peclagogues, sports at London Normal School in the term 19-14-19-I5 were sadly curtailed. However, under the leadership of Barry Moore, a basketball team was put to the fore sporting such names as Donald Squire, Bill Speake, jack Neale, Bob Reid, Ralph Lucas, and Barry Moore. This squad was composed of six of the seven budding men teachers. After a few brisk practices Barry Moore contacted his old Alma Mater, South Collegiate. for a game. This was played at the Normal School before many students. Sorry to relate, we lost. Since many of the six players had never seen a team before, the first half was terrible. However, we improved as the game went on to come within ten points of the winners. The score was 26-16 with Moore leading the way. Our second and third games were also with South. XVe defeated a second-string team 36-18, but in our visit to the immense gym. at South, came out on the short end of a 28-26 score against the regular team. Being short-handed, South, with plenty of reserves, were able to score on a fast breakaway in the dying seconds of the game to win. Moore again led the scoring for Normal School with fifteen points and the rest divided between Lucas, Reid, and Squire. For our fourth game we played the Knox United Church team at their gym. After play- ing an exceedingly rough game we found ourselves on the top end of a 42-35 score. After Christmas we tackled another Collegiate junior team. This time it was the Technical School. The first game was at the Normal School. Perhaps the rafters and smallness of the gym. handicapped our opponents for we trimmed them to the tune of 54-27. In this game Squire led the way with twenty-two points followed by Moore with sixteen and Lucas with eight. Shortlyafter we invaded the gym. at the Technical School. Here, for the first quarter we were completely lost on the huge floor. At the quarter we were behind 9-2. How- ever, we quickly found our bearings and won a hard-fought game 32-20. Our seventh game was against the Knox United Church team again. This was again at the Normal School. Handicapped by the loss of the left forward Lucas, and the resulting strain on the rest of the five players, who were required to play the full game, we lost a tough game 29-23. Our eighth and what proved to be the final game was played against the Beck juniors. Vl'e entered this game with only five players, due to the absence of jack Neale. Misfortune struck when early in the first half, the left forward Lucas was tripped on a breakaway and suffered a badly twisted knee. However, the Beck team loaned us a player. Although this player fought hard for L. N. S. he did not fit too well into our play and with this handicap we lost by a close score of 29-27. After the game, it was revealed that Reid also played under difficulties. It developed that he had a severely injured back and aggravated this in the game. So ended our basketball season. I would like to give a lot of credit to Barry Moore, the captain, and by far the highest scorer on the team for the organization and leadership of the team, and to Bill Speake, xx ho not a high scorer was a mainstay at guard, breaking up many plays that likely would have netted points. Also to lanky Don Squire, who looked down from the clouds to scare many smaller boys away from the ball and grab it for us. Also very worthy of mention is the work of jack Neale, Bob Reid, and Ralph Lucas. Altogether we had an excellent time, had lots of fun, and broke even on the season with four victories and four defeats. Now we are looking forward to baseball. Since there are so few boys we will have to split up among the girls to form teams. This activity is looked upon with interest and I know we will enjoy it. RALPH LUCAS. Page Sevenieen Girls' Athletics Come on Red, Come on Gold, Come on Normal, Knock 'em cold. It was amid great jubilation that the Normal School Girls' Basketball team of '45 did knock 'em cold, winning four of their five basketball games, With such high school stars as London's Margaret Knowles and Dorothy Thorpe, Ridgetown's Edna O'Neill, VVind- sor's Betty Thompson. Eileen Daugharty, Beth Gatlield and Mabel Morgan, Blenheim's Irma Cudney, and other players such as Eleanor McCormick, Bernice Wenig and Pauline Morley, the girls of '45 defeated such collegiate teams as London Central, London South and Beal Technical. Not content with defeating mere Collegiate teams the team, spurred on to greater heights, defeated the lassies from Western's Brescia Hall. In the opening game played in Cen- tral Collegiate gym. against the then undefeated Central girls we, sparked on by an aggressive forward line, made up of Morgan, Knowles, McCormick, Cudney, and our versatile O'Neill, who shone on both the forward and guard line, and a strong line of defense composed of Thomp- son, Thorpe, Daugharty, and Catfield, walked off with a 19-9 victory. Elated by this victory we managed to eke out a 10-5 victory over the cage team from the north, namely, Brescia's Six. Being a little too confident, after defeating our neighbours here in the south, the South C. I. Sextet by the score of 17-12, we lost our second game to the Centra! lassies by a 17-12 score, but only after a hard fight. Alas and Alackl After such a disgrace we came up from behind in a hard tussle against the Technical girls, winning our last game 12-3. - Thus completed a very successful Basketball Season! In the Realm of Basketball at L. N. S. in '45, we salutefaliss Prendergast for her won- derful coaching and organization of our team. Donna Long, our time-keeper. Lorraine Hodgins, who was regularly on hand as score-keeper for our games. Margaret Lyman, for her untiring efforts in arranging our games and managing our team. Marg. was unanimously chosen by members of the team as manager and it can be truthfully said that the Normal School never had a more efficient manager. HIGHLIGHTS IN THE WORLD OF SPORT What member of the girl's basketball team appeared at all games wearing a form-fitting white jersey? What two members of the girls' basketball team were seen stopping all buses on Dundas Street East about five minutes before our opening game, looking for a suitcase containing the uniforms of approximately tive members? Vllho left the suitcase on the bus? How late were we in starting the game? XVhy did these two members insist on riding all over London when they finally located the missing suitcase? You're forgiven this time, Marg. and Betty. Hope it won't happen again! . What member of the team knew Central Collegiate sufficiently well to supply those members of our team whose uniforms had been left on the bus with Central uniforms? Did you go to Central, Dorothy? INTER-FORM BASKETBALL VVe congratulate Eorm 3 on winning the inter-form basketball championship in a tourna- ment held during the winter months. The tournament took the form of a six game sei ies. However, to determine the championship team, play-offs were held between forms 2, 3, and 4, After three hard-fought battles Form 3 came out on top. We extend hearty congratu- lations to Jean Martindale. Form 3's captain, and members of her team. ELIZABETH GATFIELD. Page Eighleen What Progressive Education Means It means that in your teaching you: Guide pupils to learn by doing worth-while things. Help pupils to grow towards physical, emotional and social maturity. fhallenge pupils to think constructively by well selected problems. projects or enterprises which they do under your guidance. Avoid too much lecturing and telling, but rather stimulate pupils to think things through for themselves. Begin with their experience and ueconstruct and enrich it by co-operative developmental methods. Manage the class as a co-operative group that each may contribute towards enriching the knowledge, the attitudes, the skills and the appreciation of all. Conduct discussions by clear-cut questioning which requires pupils to think clearly. Remember that pupils' answers are for the benefit of the whole class. Praise keen observation. clear thinking and neat work. Avoid dictating notes to be learned. Permanent records in pupils' notebooks are to be the findings of the whole group working in co-operation with the teacher. Make blackboard summaries brief, systematic and meaningful from the contributions of the pupils. Use the inductive procedure wherever possible and guide the class to reach and express generallzationsfthe Search-Discovery method. Make use of panel discussions especially for reviewing science, agricultural and social topics. In this, require correlation with composition, spelling, enunciation and pronuncia- tion. Encourage creative endeavours by sympathetic co-operation through suggestive remarks and illustrations or demonstrations. Make the school room and the out-of-doors largely workshops where pupils are stimulated to End out truth and acquire abilities and skills which are useful in their subsequent thinking. Recognize four stages in the' creative process namely preparation or gathering materials, incubation or unconsciously elaborating what has been gathered, inspiration or becoming somewhat aware of the solution of the problem, and verification or subjecting the new idea to systematic reasoning. Realize that any topic or problem which requires the learner to organize his thinking develops creative ability. Maintain a keen interest in the activities of the work-a-day world outside of the school and correlate these with activities of school life. Listening to radio broadcasts for schools and visiting local industries should be helpful. Supplant the old idea of making the recitation period a procedure of questioning to repeat the words of the textbook with the new idea of proposing, planning, evaluating and dis- cussmg. Drill on fundamental facts, rules and principles after they have been motivated or made purposeful by clear-cut teaching. Effective drill establishes the habit of accuracy and skill. GEO. XY. HOFFERD. Page Ninelecn My Profession liver since I was a small child, my main ambition has been to be a teacher. Why, someone once asked me, do you want to be that? just think of the exciting life you would have if you were an airline hostess. Or if such a life requires too much energy for you, you could be a secretary, who takes life easily, sitting on a chair all day. If even this doesn't suit you, you could benefit humanity by being a nurse. But a teacher! Bah! Mark my word! You will be a nervous wreck in two years, and no one will appreciate your efforts. You will be the target of all the community gossip, too. lf you don't believe me, just wait and SVC. Your arguments are right in some degree, I answered. But now let me tell you all the pleasures of being a teacher. To begin with, I know I shall like the nork. It will be thrilling to know that I have revealed to some young mind some of the wonders of science. I can imagine the sensation I shall get when some child finally understands why the area ofa rectangle is length X width X 1 square unit. lt will be similar to the feeling I had when, at last, l could distinguish the difference between combinations and permutations. Yes, it will be a hard fight, but think of the trium- phant victory! And who wouldn't rather work with the active minds of young children than with account books, or hypochondriacs? I am sure I shall be amused countless times with their peculiar expressions. and childlike views. Fancy the stimulating experience of kindling the mind of some youngster who might become a second Sir Ernest MacMillan! But even if you do not consider these as motivating forces, I still have other reasons for wanting to become a teacher. One is the fact that the future life of the nation is largely in the hands of the teacher. Since there is a very slight chance that someday I may be a member of parliament, l can find satisfaction in knowing that some of my pupils will probably, someday, in some way, infiuenee the political life of our country. And teachers are powerful factors in guiding children to see the truth and to have good characters, and well-informed minds. Thus, it is clear, teachers affect to a great extent the future of our land. Then, too. I have selfish reasons for choosing this career. The first is that I have a weakness for wanting holidays. XYhat other profession allows one to have two months holidays every summer, and two days holidays every week? None, of which I know. The second selfish reason is that teachers now have quite good salaries. Now what other vocation, I ask you. has as many advantages as teaching? My friend could not suggest to me any profession with more arguments in its favour than teaching has. Now. in case you have to stand up for our profession. just reinforce your argument with these lines: For me is the life of a teacher, I love the young boys and smart girls, If I teach them with zest and with interest, lily reward will be worth more than pearls. You may have your excitement or patients, Or scrub all the live-long day: But I shall have children to work with, And shall make my work interesting play. Now, if you are in doubt of your future, And like youngsters better than pay, Your life is all laid out before you, just pick up and follow the way. DOROTHY E. CHANDLER. Page Twenty Star Gazing at Western U On March the 12th, between the hours of 7 and ll, the Normal students of '45 found their various ways to the lyestern Observatory. The night air was chill and clear. echoing such interrogations as XX here is it? and XVhere do we go from here? Finally we viewed its small domed shape ahead and we were greeted by cheers of fellow' students who had been more fortunate in Ending their way. As our eyes became accustomed to the brightly-lighted room we saw Dr. Hofferd and Kliss Conover demonstrating a few of the mysteries of the sky with the planitarium. This illustrated on a smaller scale the relationship of the various planets to the sun, and how they all, like the earth. rotate around the sun. XYhen we climbed to the dome we gazed around us in the gloom. l-lveryhody seemed to be everywhere, but finally we distinguished a line slowly moving to mount a ladder and gaze through the telescope. Twinkle, twinkle. little star. How I wonder what you are llp above the world so high, Like a diamond in the sky. From the telescope they would proceed to the roof to scan the heavens with the naked eye or by a smaller telescope. Through the large telescope we observed Saturn and its rings, the crescent of Venus, and the brilliance of big jupiter. The answer to our many inquiries concerning Venus is that it has phases just as does our moon. This was all we could see of our Solar System. On the roof, through the smaller telescope, we again gazed at Saturn, jupiter, and the Pleiades of Taurus. Those who were waiting for use of the telescope scanned the skies with the naked eye for Pleiades or the Seven Sisters shaped like a small dipper, and Orion, the mighty hunter, with the three bright stars of his belt and two dogs following him: Taurus, whose head forms a V, and the shoulder marked by Pleiades, the Heavenly Twins, at whose feet Saturn rested: Draco found between the big and little dipper, and Leo whose head is marked by a sickle-shaped group of stars. Because of the interesting sky studies with Dr. I-Iofferd and this penetrating outing to the observatory we believe that the Normal Students will now adopt the following new version of the old poem: Twinkle, twinkle, little star. Now, I know just what you are: XYhen into the midnight sky, lYe, the spectroscope apply. The only new star discovered was by Barry Moore, who found it on the ceiling of Brescia Hall. VVe extend our thanks to the University and to Dr. Hofferd, for this opportunity. BI-IRNICI-Q WENIG. MURIEL ROGERS.

XYe are all breathlessly awaiting news of the collapse of Germany, the ultimate end of heart-ache, anxiety, suffering and toil for many people, Arising from this, there is much planning and many suggestions for our future Canada and future world. Many of us are dreaming of that world and picturing it, a world where in short justice and the four freedoms prevail. a world based on the wondrous Sermon on the Mount. Some argue that this world will never be. No dream or ideal is ever completely rea- lized. Or, if it is, that ideal is unworthy of us. XYe belittle ourselves in planning it for it has not been placed high enough. A man's reach must exceed his grasp. Our desire should be to strive unceasingly, to stretch forth our hands farther and farther so that our dream of a true Canada, where justice and truth are supreme, maybe realized. It will not be easy. VVorthwhile things are never easy to achieve. Thus, as the battle dies and the guns are stilled, when the work of some has Hnished, the duty, the privilege of service for others-for us will commence, and our day will dawn in the building of a new and better Canada, a new and better world. XVe should strive for better in- ternational relations. This is necessary and inevitable if wars are to be removed from the face of the earth. However, before we are enabled to understand others, we must first understand ourselves. Thus, let us think of Canada, of her past, of her future, so that our privileges and duties may be clarified. Canada-that vast, spacious and beauteous country-our country. Are not our hearts stilled and struck with awe when we think of her splendours of hill and vale, her blue sky, her quiet countrysides. the peace and contentment prevailing within her walls? In many respects the old axiom is true, that, as has been the past, so will the tendency be for the future. Many have failed, forgetting that the past has gone, the present is with us, and so to speak, has its innings for to-day. Yet the future alone is fraught with unlimited possibili- ties. Lessons learned from the lessons of the past should be constructive guiding posts for the future. This is true of Canada. Much of the past of Canada has been glorious, some has been failure. Vllhen America broke all ties with Great Britain and became a free country, Canada remained true as did many people in the United States. These people were forced to wind their way to Canada, among unbelievable hardships and difhculties. They did not falter. They have been a wonderful blessing to Canadian life and a source from which many of our best statesmen have come. Confederation in 1867 was in itself a great movement, so much so that politicians are loath to tamper with it and improve it. Yet we must remember that Canada is still young, not yet one hundred years of age. How can we expect her to be perfect with all obstacles removed? Vilhat nation has not undergone conflict in its birth and growth? It is quite evident, however, that Canada has leaped into recognition in the world during the last few years. Canada is a nation composed of all races. having an important geographical position and marvellous productive abilities. She is blessed with raw materials and mineral wealth of unbelievable magnitude. Above all, she is blessed with preponderance of blood that recognizes the merits of Christianity and what it has done for other peoples, as well as how the lack of it has darkened the lives of other peoples. Thus, I believe Canada's future is rich and endowed with great justified hope for even greater progress in the future than in the past. In this great progress of Canada's future we, as teachers of the men and women of to- morrow, are honoured in our task of htting and preparing young Canadians that they might live in close relationship with other nations and peoples as close friends and neighbours. In so doing, let us make evident the glory of our Canada and the blessings that God has bestowed upon it. Let us be thankful for these blessings and share them with the less fortunate in all countries, as well as those found in Canada. May we realize that of this heritage and these wonders of wealth, beauty and opportunity that have been granted us are ignored, if they are not given a chance to grow, if they are not appreciated, but buried in the sand, we may find them taken away as the talents were of old. The decision rests on us and future generations. VVe know what this decision will be Our Canada will grow true, strong and just, our world will live in peace and happiness, thriving in the joy of work and love-the joy of living. Vile shall always remember Churchill's voice, deep and determined, while ahead a dark and unknown path loomed as he uttered the words that shall live forever- VVe shall not fail. Now, as victory is nearing, as our future path is again unknown, let us, believing in our task, withfconfidence, hope and above all faith, keep whispering those never dying words, We shall not ail. JUNE F. LEE. Pu ge Twenty-two 720-ebay, THE NORMAL LIFE Why did I come to Normal School? My friends and neighbours askg And many times I'ye wondered why I tackled such a task.

Miss Emery had a hard, hard task To teach us how to draw, And even though she did her best Good art she never saw.

Up in the gymn we stood up straight And still had lots of fun. llc wished to be agile as she. Our teacher-what a hon! The library was always full Uf laughing happy folk, Miss Gahan had her troubles, But she always saw the joke. I think the dream of all of us Is just to have a chance To teach a model lesson, And before the critics, prance, Some time we'll all be out of here, And what a joyous day, lVc-'ll teach the kids, and for a change We'll have the final say!

DREAM ISLAND I saw the peaks of mountains Against the purple sky, l saw the tips of tree-tops Rise up into the sky. There were no birds of thunder Plundering sights like these, For war had passed this island And left it to the seas. I hope the mews and peewits Find shelter in those boughs, For the winds that whip the island, Themselves are birds of war. The snow will cover this island As it comes drifting by: The tips of the changing tree-tops VVill blend with the indigo sky. Then spring will come in April, And summer will come in june, But always the island's a picture, At dawn, at dusk, at noon. I spent a year on the island, I saw seasons come and go, And I captured one lasting picture, Silhouettes of the peaks in the snow. lX'lARG,XRp.'l' litem..

Page Twenty-four FAITH The earth is but a dreary place, A place of woe and war, It stands upon a precipice Hemmed in by space's door. Some people laugh and others cry, Some people sing and dance, While others live in death's dark vale, These never had a chance. That's what the pious man might say When offering a speech! But me? I think this earth is good If you but work and reach. Our Fathers slaved to make this land A place of love and peace, Our attitude blots out their aim Till this returns-wars shall not cease. So gentry of this rich, clean earth Break down the fence of hates, Instead, build up a bridge of love That faith alone creates.
