Selwyn House School - Yearbook (Montreal, Quebec Canada)

Text from Pages 1 - 60 of the 1938 volume:

jfuretnurh We wonder how many of our parents realize how much has been done during the last two years to increase the general efficiency of the School F The same high standard has been maintained, Scholarships have been won at various schools, Common Entrance exams have been negotiated without any failures, and Selwyn House boys invariably top the lists of Matriculation results and Prize-givings. .-Xnd to all this we have added: .-X bus service to take boys to and from School without any extra charge to parents. A Library of about a thousand books, from which boys can borrow any day after school. Some four hundred books have been taken out this year. A Singing Class which has shown great enthusiasm and improvement, has put on a very successful concert of its own, and has taken part in the Quebec Musical Com- petition Festival. :X Help Room in which any boy who, through absence or for any other reason, is having trouble with his work can obtain individual assistance. :X fifteen minute period, every morning, devoted to a study of the Scriptures. :X Ski-ing Instructor who gives lessons on the Mountain four afternoons a week, and large and small parties of boys are taken to the Seigniory Club and the Laurentian Mountains. .-X great improvement in the facilities for skating. The School has the use of three rinks Y the School rink, Coliseum, and the rink on the XYestmount Grounds. An arrangement with the Park Toboggan N Slide Club which makes every boy in the School a member and enables him to have full use of the Club House at all times. An arrangement with the Y.Bl.C..-X. which allows us, as soon as the weather breaks, to have the use of an excellent Gymnasium and a very competent Instructor, a good swim- ming pool, shower baths and dressing rooms, and the exclusive use of these facilities during certain hours.

Most boys chose The Flgriect ol' Modern Transportation and Communi- cation on the I.it'e of Our Times upon which to write, and two excellent essays were written by Y. Goldbloom and KI. I.ittle. There was little to choose between them, and the ad- judicators finally awarded the Prize to Goldbloom, whose style more than offset Little's material. bk nk Ill SELWYN HOUSI-I SCHOOL MAGAZINE HOLIDAY TASK, 1937 The book set for last summer's reading was Charles Kingsley's Westward Ho! The six best answers to the examination held at the beginning ofthe Christmas term were written by VV. Palmer, D. Cleveland, H. Scott, D. Blaiklock, C. Stairs, and F. Gurd. It was difficult to name the prize-winner, but Hnally Palmer was selected. All boys who sat for the paper and satisfied the examiner were rewarded in the usual manner by being given a half-holiday. Holiday Task for the summer of 1938 will be set later. if lk all SCHOLARSHIPS AND SUCCESSES VVe congratulate the following boys who gained Scholarships last year: f M.

With the discovery of Anierica the positiun was changed. lt was nu longer the centre of the trading world, hut it is still the centre of the pwlitical worlds of France, Italy, and lfnglantl. It is essential to the interests uf' France that the area of water located between the Straits of Gibraltar, and Cursica, with Elartlinii, he kept free from the influence of any l9l SELWYX HOUSE SCHOOL MAGAZINE foreign power, other than Great Britain. That is why she views with alarm the occupa- tion ofthe Balearics by Italy, and also ll Duce's encroachments in Spain, and she may well show alarm, for in the event of any trouble on the continent, France could be cut OH by the lllediterranean from her African Empire, a Mediterranean alive with submarines, at her back door, whose bases would be conveniently located in one ofthe Balearic Isles. Separated from France, the colonies would be at the mercy of Mussolini, who could attack through Libya. France would also be cut orl' from her immense, and badly needed, re- servoir of black soldiers. It is not hard to see the concern which France may well feel over her position in the Mediterranean, and it is easy to understand that her best policy is an alliance with Britain. The INIediterranean has been, and is called, the backbone of the British Empire. However, people are beginning to realize that this thought is rather exaggerated. The cutting of Britain's trade routes in the Mediterranean would certainly not mean a severing from India. Long before the Suez Canal was constructed the British controlled India by way of the Cape of Good Hope, and received her merchandise from the East, and the people at home didn't starve, because of the lack of a canal. In all only about l9'Z, of the British imports pass through the Mediterranean, and of these about 1102, are obtained from countries bordering on that sea, and most of these could be brought from other countries or via the Cape of Good Hope. Nevertheless, the predominance of any nation other than Great Britain in the Mediterranean would constitute a serious menace to the British possessions of Egypt know nominally independentl and Palestine. Since the fall of Napoleon in 1815, England has ruled supreme in the Mediterranean. With the advent of Mussolini, and the vigorous policy which he is pursuing, the situation has altered. The great naval base at Malta, so strategically located when Italy was under the influence of England and France, is now no longer safe: it is within short flying range of Sicily, and could be readily wiped out by bombers from that island. This fact is ap- preciated by the Admiralty, as is shown by the fact that in the late fall of '35 when the fleet was lying at anchor in the great bay, orders were received to put to sea at once under full draught for Alexandria. The reason for this was the report of the Intelligence De- partment ot' a plot to wipe out the fleet, by the Italians, at the same time troopships were to be headed for Alexandria carrying Italian troops. The newspapers never printed a report of this, any more than they are allowed to tell of the immense concentration camps along the coast near Alexandria, complete with heavy guns, anti-aircraft weapons, and giant searchlights, all constantly manned. It is hard to believe the state of colossal pre- paredness which is maintained around the Suez Canal, and there is every reason to expect that a considerable sum of this year's defence appropriations will go towards defences in the Mediterranean. The one country to which the Mediterranean means so much, whose aims we have not discussed, is Italy, the supposed re-incarnation of the Roman Italy, which two thousand years ago ruled over Mare Nostrum , and now, it seems, tries under the able leadership ot' Il Duce , to do so again. Mussolini plays on the dread of the democratic countries for war, to achieve his ends. If one of Il Duce's bluffs was ever called, and a showdown were necessary, the Mediterranean might indeed once more become Mare Nostrum . The British l10l FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 1937-1938 and French fleets would in all probability have their bases at either end ofthe Mediterranean Sea, as it would be suicidal for any warships to try and pass through the narrow strips of water between the island of Pantellaria and the mainlands of Italy and Africa. Italy is, as everyone probably knows, a long strip of land in the shape of a boot, protruding into the Mediterranean Sea, no part of it exceeding 200 miles in width, and some parts of it less than 90 miles, therefore she is extremely vulnerable from the air. I'nder the leadership of Mussolini, Italy has in the last fifteen years regained a prestige in the world which has never been excelled since the days of the Roman Iimpire, and Il Duce has shown only too clearly his desire to be a second Caesar. He has under his command a first class war machine, which proves itself a strain on the country's revenue in times of peace. This war machine would, in time of war, have to be supplied with food and raw materials. As Italy is far from self-sustaining, she would be in a bad way for provisions, if both the Straits of Gibraltar and the Suez Canal were closed. NIussolini's interest in Spain is perhaps explained by this need of provisions, for if Franco wins the war, he will then be indebted to Mussolini. Spain is rich in many of the essentials of war, such as grain, fruit, mercury tan essential in the production of high explosivesl, iron, copper and zinc. While both ends of the Mediterranean might be blocked, Italy could still receive supplies from a neutral Spain. However Spain could not be expected after a prolonged war to be able to supply Italy with all the raw materials that she needs, even if she possessed them. Mussolini has therefore turned his eyes in the direction of South America, and particularly 'Brazil. In Brazil, he has been carrying on a very successful campaign of Fascist propaganda which has seen, doubtless as one of its results, the advent ofa new Fascist dictator in the shape of Getulio Vargas. Brazil is rich in nickel, oil, iron, copper, and rubber, these products could be shipped across the Atlantic to I.isbon, transported across Spain, and shipped over the Mediterranean to Italy. There is a dark-horse in the Mediterranean in the shape of Turkey, not the decadent Turkey of the last days of the Ottoman Empire, but a new and virile Turkey, with a modern airforce and mechanized army, a deadly menace to the welfare of Palestine if she were to be on the side of Italy, and a valuable ally to Great Britain, olfsetting the inHuence of Greece and Rumania. Turkey has as its supreme ruler Mustapha Kemal .-Xtaturk fthe modern Constantinej, a cruel, bitter, and iron-willed man who has made a nation out of a crumbling Empire. The latest move that Mussolini has made to make the Mediterranean situation more complex, is to announce himself to the world as the Protector of Islam . By means of subtle anti-British, and anti-French propaganda, he has sought to stir up trouble against the British and French administrations. The Duce finds in the discontented Arabs of Palestine, a fertile soil in which to plant his seeds of rebellion. His object is, apparently, to keep them almost at a boiling point until it suits his plans to have a holy war. He seems to overlook the fact that if the Moslems have a holy war, it will naturally be directed against all infidels , including the Italians. Another method by which Mussolini hopes to lessen the influence of the British and French governments, who constitute his worst rivals, is to discredit them in the eyes of the world. All countries look ultimately to Britain to uphold the peace of the worldg Illl SI-ILWYN HOUSE SCHOOL NIAGAZINIR Mussolini therefore causes nasty incidents to take place, like the torpedoing of British and other neutral shipping. 'lihere is little doubt as to whose submarines are responsible, but if Britain were to charge the Italians outright, it would be asking for trouble. Britain is, it seems, willing to take any number of slaps in the face in order that the peace of the world may be maintained, and that she may have time to fully rearm. There has been one well known Englishman, who recently declared that Italy did not want warg that she wanted in fact nothing more than to implant her cultural superiority on the INlediterranean countries. I wonder what this gentleman considers culture l Surely he does not regard the Abyssinian war as a cultural expedition. So far we have discussed the Mediterranean situation. Wie turn now to the near Past. Most people who read the newspapers know something of the trouble that is at present going on in the British mandate of Palestine, and 1 don't think that there is much that 1 could say that would be of any news. However, if when looking at a map of the Near East, you happen to glance at the other end of Arabia from which Palestine is located, you will doubtless see the names of Yemen and Hadrhamaut printed there. If your map happens to have been printed before 1935, under the word I-Iadrhamaut you will see a thin red strip, showing that this particular piece of Arabia is British. Now if your map was printed after 1935, and before March of 1937, you will notice that a thin red line has been drawn on the map enclosing what is really 100,000 sq. miles of territory. This means that this portion of land has become sub-iect to British influence, and again, if your map is really modern, you will note that this piece of territory about which I am writing, is now shown on the map by a solid red marking, in other words since the beginning of 1935, Britain has acquired 100,000 sq. miles of Arabian territory, in defiance of all treaties with the Arab rulers of that territory. You may say, How was it done ? It was done by Peaceful Penetration , a familiar phrase, one that is connected with the present Sino- japanese war. I do l1Ot mean that Britain went to war with the natives, as did the Italians in Ethiopia. The method adopted was quite simple. First a Resident was sent to several of the more important towns. When his authority was disputed, as was natural, troops were sent to back it up. If any of the tribes showed any signs of an uprising, they were given notice that they were to evacuate their village, as it was to be bombed. Small wonder that the British now have two colonies in Arabia. The first reason for this so-called Peace- ful Penetration was the rumoured discovery of oil in the Hadrhamaut, and the second, was the Government's belief, that if they did not annex it, some other country might try. So the next time you wish to raise your voice against the outrages of any country, think first if there is not some precedent for it in British history. In conclusion, we have seen that the continued predominance of Britain in the Me- diterranean would, to use a slang expression, put a spoke in the wheel of any designs which Mussolini might have on the colonies of either France or England, and we can also understand that Italian predominance in the Mediterranean would in all probability lead to a war. lt therefore seems to every country's advantage lwith the possible exception of ltalyj that the Mediterranean should remain dominated by Britain, and not by Italy. lt is unfortunate that the peace of the world does not mean enough to Mussolini, in spite of his frequent speeches, in which he always reiterates his desire for peace, that he should not be willing to allow matters to stand that way. D. C., Form 6. lPfm.vf' nolf : Since the above was written in February last, the political situation has changed considerably. l'id.1 I 121 FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 195' -1958 The :fathers Rlattb. In the long and dreary winter, In the cold and cruel winter, When the masters get lumbago. And the braves put on their mittens, Comes the Father's tribe to fight us, XYith its sticks and skates and sweaters, To battle with the tribe of Selwyns With their coats of black and yellow. Comes the mighty chief named Culver With his tomahawk and buckskins, With some others big as mountains Holding scalps of many Selwyns, Struthers, Cleveland, Huestis, Tetrault, Deadly with their bows and arrows. Led by Blaiklock, the W'abasso, From the lodge came many Selwyns, Out on to the frozen waters, There to meet the deadly Fathers, There to do or die in battle. Arrows Hew in all directions, And the battle grew more furious, Till Mackenzie, the great umpire, Brought a pipe from his coat pocket, Said to Culver and to Blaiklock, Let us smoke the peace-pipe, brothers. Blaiklock smoked the pipe and fainted, Culver smoked it and was dizzy, So both tribes without their leaders, Fell to laughing and rejoicing. To our lodge then came the Fathers With their squaws and their papooses, Brilliant in their beads and war paint, Straight to Gitche W'anstall's wigwam, Drank the hot drink made of hemlock, Ate the bison killed by Oscar, Banished all their fears of homework, Pledged to tight again next winter. l13l P. G., Form 5 SFLWYY HOUSE SCHOOL INIAGAZIYI-i Q Ulirip to QEurope On September 29, 1937, we left Montreal for New York to spend six weeks in F.urope. ln New York we went up to the top of the Iiimpire State Building. It was very exciting going up at fifteen miles per hour. At the Yup the visibility was ten miles, but sometimes it is forty miles. However, we got a splendid view. There was P big telescope, and in- struments for telling how strong the wind was blowing and from where it came. At twelve o'clock our boat, the S.S. Gripsholm , left for Gothenberg, Sweden. The Normandie was in dock near by. It is very streamlined, especially in the bow where the decks are covered for some distance back. Most of our passengers were Swedish, and they danced Swedish dances in the evenings. There were lots of games, but I liked best deck tennis and swimming. W'e sailed between Scotland and the Orkney Islands, and on the ninth day we arrived in Gothenburg, which is a very good port and has many streets that are canals. W'e went to visit some friends in Oslo, Norway, and climbed high above the city to a part called Holmen Kollen which has a fine view of the Oslo tiord and of the international ski jump. W'e took a night trip across the mountains to Stockholm, Sweden. The Grand Hotel is on a canal and opposite the Royal Palace. From my table in the window where I studied, l could watch the boats go back and forth. All traF'ic goes to the left in Stockholm, and between the street and the canal bank there is no fence to protect the cars from the water. W'e saw soldiers and a very good band going to the change of the guard at the Palace. W'e visited Skansen, the open air museum, and saw very old houses, a bake shop, a printing house, and an apothecary's shop. In the houses they had beds built into the side walls. The stoves were made of tiles that looked like bathroom walls, and the walls were whitewashed and decorated with paintings of flowers. The windows were made of lots of little panes and were not very big. The door keys were very large, some of them a foot long, and were kept in a cabinet in the entrance hall. There were deer and other animals in the park cared for by I.apps from Lapland. The roofs were very overhanging and sometimes had sod on them with grass growing in it. We climbed a tower with 374 steps from which we could see much of the city and out toward the Baltic. At the inn the waitresses wore dresses in the costumes of the different districts of Sweden, and the or- chestra also. They played old folk tunes. We had warHes with sugar on them for tea. I bought a hunting knife made of Swedish steel and put it on my belt and carried it all the rest of out trip, except in the evening. W'e had lunch in Bellman's Tavern, very old and way down under the ground, where artists used to go, and we visited the Thiel Art Gallery where we saw many paintings by I.illjefors of rabbits and foxes, and in the garden, statues and very huge trees. The city hall is very beautiful. As we went in we saw on the roof golden statues shining in the sun. When we got inside there was a guide who could speak German. The first hall is called the Blue Hall and from it very wide stairs go up to the main Hoot. There was one council chamber with a table made from all the kinds of wood that grow in Sweden. There were some very big coloured glass chandeliers, some of them six feet high and very beautiful. One long hall was painted by a prince of the Royal family and was quite nice. ll4l FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 1957--1958 The banquet hall is called the golden hall and is all lined with tiny pieces of glass in mosaic patterns representing the history of Sweden, and pictures from nearly every country in the world. From Stockholm we went by way of Tralleborg to Sassnitz, Germany, across the Baltic Sea on a train ferry. Each separate car of the train was jacked up so that it could not possibly roll. The funnels were only about ten feet high, and the boat seemed very long for its width. From the train windows on the way to Berlin, Germany looked very orderly, especially the trees. In the Schnellzug to Breslau we talked to a man from Hamburg about many things. Although our train was going 90 miles per hour and the telephone poles went by in a Hash, he told us about the Hamburg flyer which goes 100 miles per hour. lt is not so long and has only first class cars. He said Germany needs colonies to raise more food, especially apples, which now come from Canada. In Breslau, we visited the Rathaus and the University which has no campus and has buildings very close together. One day on the way to our friends, house we met a man who asked for money for the Winterhilfswerke . He gave us little books all different, but all about Hitler. We saw a parade of boys who are called the Hitler jugend. In the Foersters' garden there is a beautiful big tree, but they are not allowed to cut off one big branch which is in their view because the Government says it is not necessary. VVe went by motor car to a village called Obernigk and passed some very large barracks for soldiers and some camourlaged motor cars. They were painted green and dull yellow. .-Xt the beginning of Obernigk there was a sign - Hier griisst man mit I-Ieil Hitler . On the way to Berlin we passed through many forests, and in each forest the trees were the same size in excellent rows, the first ones being twelve inches high, and all the way up to nearly twice as high as an ordinary house. lYe stayed at the Hotel Bristol on Enter den Linden which is a very wide clean street with two rows of very little trees. Yve saw Hitler's house and the Kaiser's house which has a very big front, and they both have bal- conies for speaking. We went through a big park and out to the Olympic Stadium which holds 100,000 people. Four towers which seem to come out of the ground are meant to hold flags. One night we went to the opera Arabella by Richard Strauss. There were men in very fine costumes at the door with huge gold chains around their necks. Each link was about six inches long. The music was rather slow and the costumes were gorgeous. We visited the zoo where we watched some very lively sea lions who have a lovely bath. But it was most interesting to see the snakes being fed in the reptile house. On the way home we visited the tomb of the unknown soldier, which looked like a dark garage with only a soldier walking up and down in front of it. On the way to Karlsruhe very early in the morning, we saw about thirty men on a country road marching with shovels on their shoulders and no band, but in perfect order, just like real soldiers. Karlsruhe is a very old-fashioned city with a very big castle in the centre, a pretty little zoo, and some very amusing signs at the corners of several streets. VVe crossed the Rhine river and came to Strassbourg which is on one of its branches very near by. The cathedral has only one real tower but it is very high and we climbed up to the top. It was quite exciting because you could always see down to the ground, and the view from the top was nice. In the old part of the town there are very narrow streets l15l SELWYN HOUSE SCHOOL MAGAZINE and the upper floors came out over our heads. IVe went a little way into a boat like a covered raft where some women were washing or pounding clothes with wooden sticks to get the water out. Next morning my father woke me very early, and told me we were going on the fastest train in France to Paris. The country was lovely and very hilly as we went along the river Marne. I wanted to go up the Eiffel Tower more than any thing else in Paris. But first we went to visit the Exposition. At the entrance there were Hags of every country of the world. Inside we looked out from a terrace at lots and lots of water falls, which were very richly coloured, and at the Fiffel Tower not far away. On the Russian building there was a very big statue of a man and a woman, the man holding a sickle up in the air as though he were going to throw it at somebody with an overhand throw. The German building had a huge statue of an eagle. I do not remember the outside of the Canadian building, but inside there were pictures of gold and silver and copper mines and pictures of the Canadian Rockies and stream-lined trains. There were furs and a woman making thread on a spinning wheel and all around her things she had made. We saw some Siamese twins who must have a tragic life, and we tried out television. We rode up and down the mall in a tiny electric taxi. The Eiffel Tower is the tallest structure, except the Empire State Building. The elevator has two stories and goes up one of the legs of the tower and then up through the center. We could see out plainly all the way to the top, because the tower has no walls, just plain girders. From the top we could see the Seine full of boats, and the Exhibition grounds looked like an ants' racing course because the people were so small. The sun set before we came down but it was very light. We came down very fast, but by the time we reached the ground the lights were on and it was quite dark. That evening we went to the Opera Comique and saw The Barber of Seville which is very funny. The music is lively and the singing was nice. There is a priest in the play who is very, very funny, and the barber is especially funny. The Arc de Triomphe looks like a very big stool, highly decorated with carved figures and stands in a large round place. Underneath there was the tomb of the unknown soldier. All that shows is a large copper plate about thirteen feet long with a hole at one end where a flame comes out. It is fed by oil and it never goes out. The edge of the hole must be very hot, but it is made of copper so that it will not melt. The lettering is made of gold. There were heaps of flowers around the tomb, and many people looking at it, but no one there was sobbing. My mother and I walked down the Champs Elysees toward the Place dc la Concorde. There were many shops full of cars we had never seen before. Ive took a taxi to the shopping district, and the chauffeur was smoking a pipe and had his shirt sleeves rolled up and was singing or whistling or talking to a taxi man beside him when we were in a traffic jam. One evening we went to hear Lohengrin H. The music was very loud and very solemn all the way through. The halls and staircases of the Opera are huge and very grand. At the Louvre I remember two famous statues. The Winged Victory stands at the top ofa stairway. She has wings and her clothes seem to be flowing back and some think she was a figure at the prow of a ship. We could see the Venus de Milo from a long distance down the hall as she stood in the centre of a large room. She has no arms, and she seems to be resting. I do not think she is very beautiful. ll6l FOR THE SCHOOL YE.-XR 1937-1938 Northern France has many small trees and neat houses and is not very hilly. XYe arrived at I.ille after dark and looked for a l.incoln car, number 454316. When we got to the border of Belgium the chauffeur talked very jokingly to the customs ollicer, a huge gate Opened in front of us and shut just barely back of our bumpers. From then on to Courtrai the roads are cobbled. There was a bell in the church opposite the house where we visited which clanged several times a day. Once I counted 162 times. lVe went to the market where they had huge lumps of cheese, flowers, vegetables, coloured clothes f but mostly cheese. The most interesting thing was an electric washing machine which was going by itself at the side of the road. There was a very old watch tower in the centre of the square. We took a picture of one of the dogs that was harnessed to a bicycle to help pull a load of milk. On the way to Ghent we saw il small castle not much bigger than a house surrounded by water so that it looked like a towering island. In Ghent we saw the Castle of the Counts with very old walls that went down into the water, and the guild houses which were on the banks of canals going in every direction from where we were. It was raining when we motored to Ostende. There were many thatched houses and windmills with huge wings which furnish power for work on the farms as well as pump- ing water. We saw a grey battleship lying at anchor near the chalk clitls of Dover, and my father showed me the hospital where he lived after he was wounded during the war. I was glad to get to England so that I could talk my own language for a while. The country on the way to London is very pretty, and there are lots of very big trees scattered about, not in rows. One of the most interesting things we saw in London was the Tower, which should be called Tower . After the Middle Tower and Byward Tower we passed the Traitors' Gate where in olden times the prisoners entered from the river. The White Tower is the main building. One thing in it is a model of the Battle of Waterloo with all the tiny ligures of soldiers and horses and cannon. 1Ye went up a narrow winding stair to St. hIohn's Chapel, which has a lot of huge stone pillars. There are rooms full ol' old armour, very interesting. XYellington's sword is very large and decorated with jewels, but it was a pity we could not see the blade, for it was in the scabbard. The horses' armour did not go around the body, but there were spikes around the eyes. The armour ol' I-Ienry VIII is very, very large. In the Bloody Tower there were Beefeaters all over the place. They are dressed in old fashioned red costumes with black hats and carry fancy stalls. We saw many dungeons, but I liked best seeing the Crown jewels which are in a small room in a huge round glass case. The King's crown has .1 huge diamond, and the ruby given to the Black Prince, and in the royal sceptre is the largest diamond in the world. VVe went to climb the Monument which is the highest building in London, because I like towers. It was built in remembrance of the Great Fire of London in 1666. The inside of St. Paul's Cathedral is very beautiful and has lovely coloured windows. But the whispering gallery is most interesting. It is high up at the base of the dome and has a bench going all the way around with no spaces between. A man whispered about the history of London, and you would put your ear to the wall any where, even exactly opposite, and it would sound as though he were talking right in your ear T Down in the Crypt we passed a long line of tombs, and saw a huge carriage built in eighteen days. Il7l 'x SELWYN HOUSE SCHOOL MAGAZINE At Madame Tussaud's Exhibition of Waxworks, the people certainly looked very real. There are Hitler, lots of Kings and Queens, and Shakespeare, and Sir Malcolm Camp- bell and many interesting tableaux. There was one of Clive in India when the natives were just going to kill him. The day we saw the changing of the Guard, Queen Mary drove by in an ordinary limousine and everybody said quietly, Queen Mary We looked at Buckingham Palace from every side and watched the sentinels walk up and down before their boxes. Opposite are two big gates into the park, one dedicated to Canada and another to South Africa. We walked down the Mall to the Admiralty Arch and on to Trafalgar Square with a statue of Nelson in the centre and four huge lions. I fed the pigeons a little, but they were very dirty. They would land on my head, shoulders, arms, and everywhere. In the London Zoo the most interesting animals are the elephants. They would nod and shake their heads, and they understood when the man told them to flap their ears, and seemed very, very clever. Some of the penguins are very big, and they waddled about as though they had heavy snow-shoes on. One day we visited Oxford and we went to Merton College because that was where my father lived when he was there. I thought it would be very dull to live there, but the sport places must be cheerful. Then we went along a street to Magdalen College, where Thomas Iwolsey went. Xve walked along I.ong Wall Street to visit some friends. Later we motored out to Boar's Hill for tea and had a lovely walk. On Yvednesday, November 3, we left for Southampton, and sailed on the S.S. Aqui- tania for New York. The sea was quite rough and one day the wind was so strong that the boat was tilted sideways for two hours. The swimming pool was closed most of the time. The Aquitania was launched in 191-I and has always been on time. VVe arrived in New York harbour in the early morning, and I watched the tugs pull the ship into dock. We returned home on Wednesday, November 10, having been away six weeks lacking twelve hours A. P., Form I. Q.-Xge 101 sbeltnpn Zlauusz.

In advance of Their Majesties' own Procession there were earlier Processions of those going to the Ceremony. The first of these was the Lord Mayor of I.ondon's Pro- cession. It was followed by the Speaker of the House of Commons in the Speaker's Coach. Then certain members of the Royal Family and Representatives of Foreign Powers left Buckingham Palace with escorts, and drove to the Abbey in motor-cars. The Prime Mi- nisters of different countries of the Fmpire, Representatives of India and Burma, and Colonial Rulers followed shortly after. The next Procession consisted of more members of the Royal Family including the two little Princesses and Queen Mary. Then came the King and Queen in a gold coach drawn by eight cream-coloured horses with an escort including his brothers, the Dukes of Gloucester and Kent, the heads of the Army, Navy, and Air Force, a large number of Indian Princes on horseback, and Yeomen ofthe Guard. The streets all along the route were lined with stands, which were full and besides that great numbers of people stood, many of whom had been there all night. The streets that the Procession passed along were so changed by the decorations and stands that they could hardly be recognized. The weather was dull, and soon after the King and Queen had left the Abbey to return to Buckingham Palace it began to rain, I was fortunate to witness this marvellous spectacle from a position near West- minster Abbey. H. H., Fmm 3. Ulbz war hettneen Qlhina ann Elapan. For a long time Japan was hardly known to other Powers because no people were allowed to go there or to leave. Then suddenly Japan opened up all its ports and let people go in and out. But she still had too many people for her size, so she decided to tight for some more territory. She took Korea and Formosa from China. Then she started to force the Russians into war by pushing into Russian territory. In this war she took Port Arthur and the southern portion of the island of Sakhalin from Russia. The Caroline Islands and other islands that once belonged to Germany were taken by her after the Great XVar and she now had a very powerful empire. A few years ago she made Manchuria into an independent state called Manchukuo, with the former Chinese Emperor as its ruler. The present war was started by Japan pushing into Chinese territory and refusing to go back. There was no actual declaration of war but the Japanese claim that the Chi- nese started it by firing upon them, which is true. The Japanese have captured Peiping and Nanking and have penetrated the Chinese part of Shanghai. There is a lot of trouble about the International Settlement because the Japanese have killed several British soldiers and have sunk the U.S.S. Panay, which was sent to protect .American citizens. The war may perhaps end with the British Empire and the United States taking sides with China.

It was on a bright july morning that a party consisting of my mother, brother, a friend and I were going to Skye from Dulnain Bridge, Morayshire, on bicycles. VVe left at 7 A.M. for Aviemore which was twelve miles away. There we boarded the train for Inverness, crossing a most exciting viaduct, also Culloden Moor. VVhen we reached Inverness we had to get into another train for Kyle of Lochalsh. On the journey we saw some lovely mountain scenery. About L30 P.M., we suddenly came upon the Coolins and blue Loch Carron. A few minutes afterwards we arrived at Kyle of Lochalsh. It was a lovely sunny afternoon with deep purple shadows on the hills. From Kyle of Lochalsh we took a boat for Portree, a sail of about ly? hours. My brother thought that Portree was too trippery , so we went to the Post OHice, where they told us about an hotel about nine miles outside Portree. It was called Skirinish Ifarm Hotel, Skeabost Bridge, and was managed by a Canadian from VVinnipeg. We lost our way, but finally got on to the right road after bicycling into some chieftains' garden and passing an old stone with some interesting markings on it. It was a perfect hotel and we slept well that night. The next day we took our bicycles out of the garage and rode towards Uig. We had only gone a few miles when my brother's tyre punctured. After it had been tem- porarily mended we lunched beside two standing stones. :X minister, who was haymaking in the field, told us a traditional story about them. He said that long, long ago the people lived chiefly on deer. Then the deer went away and the people had to Gilt shell-fish. The deer came back and the stones on which they had broken the shells of the shell-fish were put up on end as a memorial. VVhen we got to Uig we had a swim in the bay, except my brother who had to have his tyre properly mended. On his return, he told us a story about the men in the garage. One was mending a car and the other his bicycle. They were talking in Gaelic but every now and then the word back-axle would come in. Apparently Gaelic isn't modern enough to have a word for back-axle. We bicycled home and as we looked back we saw the blue Atlantic and beyond that the brown hills of the Hebrides. The next morning we left Skye. lVe travelled with two Americans whom we had met on the journey there and followed the same route as before. At Carrbridge we got out of the train and bicycled back to Dulnain Bridge, nine miles away. C. S., Form 3. Q Qinmparisun ut Qllummunism with jfastism. Communism and Fascism are the result of previous oppression or bad government. Communism arises from the discontent of the masses, while Fascism is the doctrine of an energetic group which suddenly takes control of the government, by force, if ne- cessary, and its success in doing so is assured by the mere fact that its predecessors are as weak in supporting their rights as they were in their way of ruling. l20l FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 193'-1933 When a group of Fascists comes into power, their leader becomes a dictator, and his word is law. The Fascists do away with all unnecessary laws' and practically eliminate waste in government. Some of the weak points in Fascism, however, are that its methods are too drastic and that the freedom of the citizens is greatly lessened. There is, also, greater risk of war, because a dictator does not have to consult anyone but himself, and has no dread of an election in the near future. Usually when a country becomes Fascist, it regains its self-respect, and after every- thing has been put in order at home, the leader tries to enhance his prestige by fostering the country's ambition to expand, which usually leads to a war. Communism is very much opposed to Fascism in that it is a system of society in which common property is the recognized form. Fascism is national, while Communism is international, in other words Communism is the poor man against the man of property, while Fascism is an efficient but tyrannical form of government adopted by a particular country. Communism not only contiscates property to redistribute it as it sees fit, but con- scripts labour. Communism pampers the labouring masses, while Fascism shows no partiality to any Special class. :X Communist country is governed by the masses for the masses, while a Fascist country is willing to sacrifice the individual for the good of the state. Russia and Italy are, respectively, examples of the Communist and Fascist nations of the world. In Russia, the low type of man has triumphed, while in Italy the higher and more intelligent men are still at the head of affairs. For instance, Mussolini is a much better type of man than Stalin. The chief trouble about Fascism is that if the wrong man becomes dictator, life is liable to become as dreadful as it is in Russia. The chief trouble about Communism is COMMl'NlSNI. KI. C. Form 6. The Eesnriptinn uf a iBi:ture. The picture which I am going to describe is called Una scena in Venezia CA scene in Yenicel. It was painted by a Venetian artist, Francesco Guardi, who lived from the year 1712 to 1793. The size of the picture is one foot, two and a quarter inches high, by one foot, nine inches wide. The foreground consists ofa number of people standing on a piazzetta with gondolas tied to it. The people on the piazzetta have powdered hair, and very grand costumes with gold lining. l2ll SELWYN HOUSE SCHOOL MAGAZINE There is a canal behind them, on which two gondolas quietly glide. There is a church on the left, and a terrace on the right. They are joined by ll small bridge, so that people can walk from one side to the other, while the gondolas are passing underneath. On the tops of the roofs ofthe houses there are galleries, where people often go up to watch the boats go by. It is noon, and the sun is shining brightly upon the amber-coloured houses which are held up by supports which are driven into the bottom of the lagoon. The clouds are as bright as the heavy costumes of the Venetians who are standing on the piazzetta. All is going well, all is quiet, and everybody is happy. I. S. C., Form 3. iiaumetnurk.

Not long ago I was fortunate enough to be able to take a trip round the world. On january 7th, 1936, I left New York with my parents and sister, reaching Bombay, India, on February Ilth. Ifn route we called at Funchal, Madeira, and Las Palmas, in the Canaries, where we saw all the important sights, and at Cape Town and Durban in South Africa. I thought both these cities very pretty, and especially enjoyed seeing the Zulu war dance and the Valley of IOOO Hills near Durban. Upon arrival at Bombay we saw the Towers of Silence, and then entrained for New Delhi, where we met Lord and Lady Hillingdon. We next went to Peshawar, and then drove up the Khyber, passing through Lundi Kotal, from which we could see Lundi Khama, a small village near the frontier separating India and Afghanistan. From Peshawar we went to Lahore, and then returned to Delhi, where I attended a duck shoot, and proceeded to Jaipur, where we stayed at the palace of the lNIaharajah. There was a tiger hunt here, but we had no luck. On March 2nd we went to Udaipur, where we saw the Peacock Palace and the Wlater Palace, and arrived at Agra on the next day. There we saw the famous Taj Mahal and its beautiful screen. Thence to Gwalior, where I attended two tiger hunts. Here is an extract from my diary: f as INIarch 7. This morning we waited until 10 a.m. for news of the tiger, and were so excited when we heard there was one in the beat. We soon left for a place 42 miles out of Gwalior. Our cover was situated on top ofa cliff, and we were looking down into a ravine on one side of which was a river and on the other a small jungle. just in front of us there were two openings cut in the jungle so that we could see the tiger. A few minutes after the beat started he came into the l23l Sl-',I,WYN HOl'Sl-I SCHOOL NI.MiAZlNlr. first opening and Dad fired two shots, hitting twice.

We then went through the Yomeifmon Gate into a courtyard and took off our shoes to enter l34l Rani and the head shikari fired to put him out of FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 1937-1938 the most beautiful room I have ever seen. Afterwards we saw the gate which leads to the tomb of the first Shogun, and on it is the famous carving of the sleeping cat, carved by a left-handed man. :Xt one of the temples here two girls danced, each holding a sword. Then came Tokyo, where we saw the Imperial Palace and various Embassies, the Detached Palace and a marvellous War museum. We then left for Myanoshito where we saw the Dream, Roman, and Mermaids' Pool, and in the morning we left for a pass in the mountains from which to view Fuji. This mountain suddenly bursts upon one as one comes through a tunnel and round a bend, a surprisingly beautiful sight. On our way home we saw the long tailed fowl with a tail 2-l feet long.

I left I.ondon one week-end in July, 1937, to see the Naval Display at Portsmouth Dockyard. The first display which I saw was an air attack on I-l.XI.S. Coventry. This ship is heavily armed against air attack, and she is called a Floating Anti-Aircraft Battery . :Ill is quiet on board the ship, a bugle blares .-Iction Stations , and the men come tumbling up from below and man the guns, wearing gas-masks. The aeroplanes Csix in numberj that survive the barrage, bomb and machine-gun the ship. Then they proceed with all haste to return to their base, or aircraft carrier. The second display was a submarine attack on a Q-boat. The submarine suddenly rises from the bed of the ocean, and proceeds to send a party of men to the boat which it has just disabled. Suddenly along comes a seemingly harmless tramp! Her captain is on the bridgeg a few men are sitting in front of the fo'c'sle, and two men in the stern, by a deckhouse. The submarine turns upon its new prey, tires a shot across the tramp's bows, and orders her to heave to. She does so, and some of her men get into a boat, and row towards the submarine with the ship's papers. The two men in the stern rush to the deckhouse and push it over, and a six inch gun is revealed Y The first shot is a miss, but the second knocks off the periscope and the submarine is blinded. If she submerges, she cannot see to fire a torpedo. She decides to stay on the surface and iight it out. Two sailors jump to the quick-iirer on the submarine's deck. The battle rages on lboth sides firing blank shellsl when it can be seen that the submarine is beginning to list Qthis is done in the display by slowly filling one of the ballast tanks J, but the submarine's gun has started a fire in the tramp ithis is actually done alsol. However, the game is up, and the submarine slowly sinks beneath the surface. The tramp does the best she can with her tire and slowly sails away, victorious Y These were but two of the many fascinating displays I saw, but they were my fa- vourites. I saw there many famous ships that most people remember, such as the Nelson lthe largest battleship in the worldlg the Queen Elizabeth Cwhere all the German admirals came to sign the :Xrmisticelg the Iron Duke lthe flagship of -Iellicoe in the Battle of -Iutland, and other admirals J: the Indus of the Indian Navy fthe only ship in the Portsmouth Review to be painted white l, and the air-craft carrier Courageous . These, and many other ships, also, added tremendous interest. P. R. J., Form 3. Zliropital Jfisb. The principles of an aquarium are very simple. Fish breathe oxygen, which they obtain from the water, and exhale carbon dioxide. Thriving plants absorb the carbon from the carbon dioxide and liberate oxygeng this allows a high oxygen content in the water, so no running water is needed. It is best to have in the aquarium, a heater, a thermostat and a thermometer, to keep the temperature at about 75 Fahr. A dark green fungus grows on the side of the l36l FOR THE SCHOOL YE.-KR 193' t-1938 aquarium, on the sand and on the plants, this is called algae, and is caused by excess light. However, it is very good for the fish although not pretty. Plants should be planted in well washed sand, and the prepared tank Cwith water in itj should be allowed to stand for about 36 hours before the fish are put in. Scientificalfy, fish have two namesg the first is usually descriptive, and the second Latin. There are many kinds of tropical fish, which are divided into two main groups, namely egg-layers and live-bearers. With the live-bearers the eggs are hatched inside the body of the female and the young come out alive, but with the egg-layers the eggs are expelled and hatch outside. Of all tropical fish the Guppy is probably the best known, but if I were to call it Lebistes Reticulatus, you would not know what I was talking about. Ir is a live-bearer and comes from Venezuela. There is one fish that is particularly interesting, viz. the Siamese fighting fish or Betta Splendens. If two males are put together they will immediately hght to a finish. Yvhen breeding time comes on, the male blows a bubble and coaxes the female to lay her eggs into it, after the bubble nest has been filled, the female is driven off or killed. In about two days the eggs hatch and the young come out. The babies may be under the father's care for three weeks, but after twelve days they are usually ignored or eaten. Some of the fish I have in my aquarium are as follows:- Neon Tetras: they are a new fish and have a very luminous bright blue stripe on top and a red one underneath. Pristella Riddlei, Br. Guiana: Y- they are absolutely transparent, you can see all the bones. Black Mollienisia, Southern l'.S.:I colour, coal black. Of all hobbies I think the keeping and breeding of Tropical fish is probably the most interesting. c. A. xv, Form 3. Iss raquettes nurhigisnnzs.

L.-Xge 73 The Utims Machine. lfor the second time within a year, the little schooner Toronto sounded her way carefully through the numerous reefs and shoals outside the large, uncharted, tropical island off the coast of South America. Two months ago they had sailed between the same dangerous reefs, with the Object of charting it. They had gone into the interior, and, in a small clearing in the dense jungle, they had found the Time Machine. They had not then known its purposeg and Skipper Aloe Uwens, the old salt who owned the Toronto , had produced a battered old kodak and taken two or three photo- graphs of the machine. These photographs he had shown to the Royal Society in London. None of these distinguishshed scientists had ever seen a machine that even slightly resembled it. Thus it was that Skipper Owens, as he navigated the reefs for the second time, carried as pas- sengers, two eminent scientists, Professor Stillger and Professor London. This time they had a little diHiculty in locating the Machine but after Houndering through the lusuriant vegetation for about twenty minutes, they saw the sun glinting on it, some distance away. The two scientists dashed up to it, followed by that part of the crew that had not stayed on the ship. There was a large covered platform beneath the main part of the machine with a huge leyer in the centre, and two or three low benches around. The men were cooling ofl l29l FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 1937-1938 on the benches, when suddenly Skipper Owens slipped and fell on the metal floor, his arm pushing over the lever. There was a roar as the machine, suddenly and startlingly, came to life. They could see little of the scenery, only glimpses once in a while, as through a semi-opaque wall. Tliey saw huge forms looming up near the machine, but frightened by the noise, Qthey afterwards discovered that they were giant sauriansl, they would lumber away. At last, as suddenly as it had started, the machine stopped, there was a click and a slight whir and the semi-opaque screen vanished, and, for the first time, they could see the forest outside. But it was a forest so utterly alien, so diFferent from any forest any of them had ever seen. Then London, who had been conversing with Stillger in low tones, exclaimed: I think this is the vegetation that existed in the Jurassic Period of the Mesozoic Era, some 90,000,000 years ago. Skipper Owens gasped. Phew l murmured one of the men, 90,000,000 years before I was born l Stillger, who was well known in London as a naturalist and a palzeontologist, was in his element. He was expertly netting small specimens of the animal and insect life that abounded on the swampy ground. London, who was a mathematician, was sitting quietly in the shade, ignoring the buzzing insects, his pencil working at lightning speed. Skipper Owens, glancing over London's shoulder, saw nothing but a mass of weirdly arranged algebraical symbols and equations. Suddenly one of the men came stumbling blindly through the undergrowth, bleed- ing from a dozen CLItS and deep wounds on his arms and head. Look out , he screamed insanely, they're coming, alligators with wings! six yards longf almost got me... and he collapsed to the ground. Stillger cried out in a panic-stricken voice, To the machine, quick l or you'll be mincemeat.

London pulled the lever back to its original position. Five missing, eh F Not a hope for them, poor fellows, he said. By some miracle of chance, they had pushed the lever back to its former neutral position, and as they walked back towards the ship, London was muttering to himself, VYhat a boost to science, warping the space-time continuum, this machine will have to be transported to London, to be used for scientific purposes.

The name of the picture about which I intend to write is The l.aughing Cavalier . I don't suppose anyone knows why it was called that, for its correct title is The Portrait of an Otlicer . It was painted by an artist named Franz Hals. His father and mother were very rich. Most artists, it seems, come from poor families, but it just happens that this great artist belonged to a rich one. He liked to paint simple pictures of children, or of people. This picture was painted in the early seventeenth century, about 162-I, just about the time when Pieter Paul Rubens was also painting some of his masterpieces. VI'hen I was over in Fngland last summer l visited many museums. One of these, in which is The Wallace Collection , is where the original portrait of The Laughing Cavalier hangs. The artist is very fond of auburn. He uses this colour mostly for hair. The pic- ture, as you know, is of an oliicer or cavalier. He is wearing very thick clothes. Starting at his head, and thence down to his waist, they consist of a very large hat, under which his hair shows. Here Hals uses the auburn hue. Then, around his neck there is a white lace collar. The rest of the clothing that he is wearing in the picture is a very heavy, em- broidered coat. He has lace around his wrists. The rest of his body and legs cannot be described, the reason being that the picture is only three-quarter length. Although he is called The Laughing Cavalier , his expression is not merry, but haughty and slightly sneering. I like the picture of The Laughing Cavalier because it looks so real, just as if he were looking in through an open window at you. No detail of any sort has been left out. The lace around his wrists and neck are painted so perfectly that the holes in the pattern of it can be distinguished quite easily. The whole picture was painted very in- geniously. Franz Hals was a great artist! C. .-X. Q. B.C.-Xge 115, Form 3. The jfigbt with Quliatb. Now the Philistines gathered their armies together, and said that they were going to send out their strongest man, and that the Israelites had to send out their strongest man, and the two would light, and if the Philistine won, the Israelites would be their slaves, and if the lsraelite won, the Philistines would be their slaves. The Philistines sent out a giant named Goliath, who was six cubits and a span in height. The Israelites sent out David, who was only a youth, and Saul armed him with a coat of mail, and he put a helmet of brass upon his head, and girded him with a sword and told him to go and meet Goliath, but David said to Saul that he could not go because he had not proved the armour, and he took it off. Then he took his stat? in his hand and took live smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in a shepherd's bag which he had, and his sling was in his hand, and then he went up to the Philistine. Then the Philistine said that he would feed David to the fowls of the air, and the beasts of the land, but David said to Goliath: You come to me with a sword, and with l30l FOR THE SCHOOL YF.-XR 103' v 1938 a spear, and with a shield, but I come to you in the name of the Lord of Hosts and God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.

Anybody in Windsor Station at 3.30 a.m. on Saturday February llth might well have wondered at the seemingly endless stream of boys wearing some garment in yellow and black colours. These were the S.H.S. boys on their annual week-end jaunt to the Seigniory Club, under the extremely strict charge of Mr. XVanstall, Mr. VViseman, and Mr. Greenlees. Upon entering the station we put our bags on one truck and skis on another, and quickly made our way to the train, where a special carriage was waiting. Yvhile some of the older boys stored luggage and skis in the smoking room and compartment between our car and the next, each of the younger boys quickly grabbed a seat for himself and his special pal. Then as the train pulled out of the station you could hear exclamations of Ah, , . . at last we're off f and Goodbye, Mom Y The only eventful happening on the train was the formation of a pool for the Maroon- Rangers game on the first goal, and the first goal in the game to be played that night be- tween Cleveland and Blaikloclgsponsored by the older boys who wheedled money out of even the Masters. Two hours later a very happy bunch of boys climbed out of the train and jumped into the waiting sleighs. A few of the luckier boys got rides in dog sleds up to the Club. On arrival there they took their bags up to their rooms, then there was a general rush towards the dining-room. After dinner we all went over to the 6th fairway where the senior jumping was held. The crust was unfortunately rather hard. After this everybody went and played billiards or skated until 5 o'clock, when the swimming was held. No prizes were given this year, but the boys had the fun of a plunge in the Club swimming pool. After supper, during which the band,by special request, played Veni vidi vici and Bei mir bist du schoene , the boys who were going to play hockey and those who wanted to Watch, got ready to go down to the rink, about a mile from the Club: the rest remained to see a special movie. In the hockey game Cleveland's team won by 4-2, and no wonder, for his goaler, Sam Ramsey, being able to speak French to the spectators from the village, and playing a very good game, was cheered on tremendously by the vil- lagers. After the game we all piled into the sleighs and returned to the Club, a tired but happy band. Then we went slowly up to bed. Next morning we had breakfast at 8 a.m. and afterwards in trucks and cars went to Valley Farm, another house owned by the Club. Here the Senior and Junior Downhill were run off on a hill a little way from the house. After this came the Junior Jump, the crust under about an inch of powdered snow making ski-ing conditions rather difficult. After lunch of rolls, soup, celery, and chicken in puffed pastry, the Junior Slalom was held, followed by the Senior. The latter was very hard, with extremely sharp turns, which were made all the more diHicult by the fact that the crust was scraped clear. We returned to the Club and packed our bags, having tied up our skis. During supper the Ski Manager, Mr. Shephard, very kindly consented to give out the prizes, after which came three cheers for him and the Club. About fifteen minutes later we got into the sleighs and went to the station, where the boys entrained for home, tired but triumphant. B. I.., Form 6. l33l SFLWYN HOCSF SCHOOI.

The game was one of the most interesting to watch of the Fathers' matches to date as the teams were very evenly matched. At the end of the game the score was 6 all, and it would be hard to say which side was the more aggressive. For the Fathers, Mr. Molson, who scored two of the goals, and Mr. Stairs, who scored one, were splendid on the attack and Mr. Huestis played an excellent defensive game. Mr. Culver, in goals cleared some hard shots very nicely. For the School, Blaiklock, Palmer, and Fleming were outstanding as forwards, whilst Lemesurier and Strong in defence were very hard to pass. Sutherland played a good game in the nets. The scorers for the school were Blaiklock ll H, McConnell Cl J, Ballon Cl J, Fleming QD, Palmer ill. I.eMesurier and Birks each earned an assist.

To risk one's own life to save another or an ' similar deed of distinction is classed as heroism. 3 y , The pages of history are full of wonderful deeds which have been performed by men and women. Boadicea fought heroically to keep the Romans from Britain's shores. She took poison rather than be taken prisoner by them. Florence Nightingale was the hrst nurse and woman who risked her life amidst dirt and disease, to look after the soldiers in the Crimean War. Joan of Arc was another great heroine with wonderful courage. Grace Darling with her father braved a storm in a small row boat, to rescue sur- vivors ofthe Forfarshire, which struck a rock on the Farne Islands. There are great men who have distinguished themselves to further the interest and industry of their country. Sir John Franklin, with his brave men suH'ered all sorts of perils, and lost his life discovering the North West passage. Lord Nelson, when wounded, covered his face, and shining orders, so that his sailors might not recognize him and become discouraged. General Wolfe, by his bold and daring plan, captured Quebec. In the Great XVar many heroic actions were performed by men in the trenches as well as the ofhcers in command. We have our every day heroes, viz., a person jumping into the water to rescue another in danger of drowning. Men who go down into mines to rescue miners who have been entombed, fliers who risk their lives in the interests of flying, and firemen who so often lose their lives trying to save our homes and our lives . . . all such are heroes.

The River St. Lawrence is a great commercial waterway of Canada. It is very important, as it has two very important cities on its banks, namely, Quebec and Montreal. At its mouth are the islands of :Xnticosti and Newfoundland. The former has been the object of the newspapers' repoiters, as a syndicate of Germans has tried to pur- chase it. The Government would not pass the act. The River St. Lawrence connects the Great Lakes with the Atlantic Ocean, so Montreal and Quebec carry on a great trade with YYindsor, Detroit, Sault St. Marie and Ottawa. The last city is situated on a tributary of the St. Lawrence, named River Ottawa. This river meets the St. Lawrence at St. Anne de Bellevue, a town situated on the western end of Lake St. Louis, a large lake near Montreal. The River St. Lawrence's banks are densely forested, and are of great value for their timber, some of which is made into paper. :X lor of paper is exported to other countries. A line bridge crosses the St. Lawrence at Montreal. It is called the Jacques Cartier Bridge. Another bridge crosses the River at Montreal. It was erected to commemorate the Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria. Near Quebec, another bridge is to be seen. It is built on the cantilever style. The River St. Lawrence is noted for its wonderful scenery. .-X tributary of the River, the Saguenay, has this distinction too, and many people go to it from all parts of North America, to see its scenery. A steamer takes one up the river. If one likes one can stop at Murray Bay. One of the famous sights of the Saguenay is Cape Trinity. l36I FOR THE SCHOOL YE.-XR 193'-1938 This is an immense cliff, standing about one thousand feet sheer up from the water. The Canadian Pacific Railway has built some splendid hotels along this route. The River St. Lawrence is very historic. Near Quebec, many battles have been fought, between the English and colonists from New England, and French settlers. In the end Quebec was taken, and Canada became an English country, but the French settlers remained and one can often see an outdoor oven along the banks ofthe historic St. Lawrence. On St. Helen's Island, an island in the St. Lawrence, one can see an old fort and blockhouse. These were built to repel raids of wild Indians on the town of Montreal. The fort is being rebuilt by the Quebec Government. It is very interesting to see the underground passages, running from the fort to various parts of the island. I think the River St. Lawrence is a very interesting river, and I always like to ex- plore it and enjoy its beauty. D. D. P., Form 2.

In spite of some bad weather which curtailed practice, the cricket season of 1937 was very satisfactory. XYith Five old Colours , Little, XYregg, Stairs, Palmer and Tom- linson to supply the experience and enthusiasm, the team soon shaped well. The first match was not played until late in the season when on Nlay 20th the bnder l5 Eleven journeyed to Ottawa to play Ashbury, and won a single-innings match by 4 wickets. Ash- bury batted lirst and were all out for -H, Palmer taking 5 wickets for I9 runs and D. Stairs 3 for 9. ln reply we had scored 60 for the loss of six wickets when stumps were drawn, XYregg contributing a fast 16 before being caught. The return game, played on the McGill Campus on 'lune Sth. was a two-innings match and also resulted in a win for Selwyn House. I 39 1 SI-IIAVYN HOUSE SCHOOL Nl.-XG.-XZINE Mike l.ittle won the toss and put Ashbury in to bat, and his decision was justified when Ashbury were dismissed for 49 runs, Tomlinson stumping 2, Palmer, XYregg and D. Stairs accounting for the other eight wickets. Our turn at the wickets produced 58 runs, Palmer and lYregg being the highest scorers with 22 and I5 respectively. ln the 2nd, innings Ashbury scored 45 in quick time and then made a sporting declaration, leaving us half an hour in which to make the necessary 37 runs. Thanks to a flashing 21 by Wregg, the Ashbury total was passed with 6 wickets in hand. The l..C.C. match played at Royal Avenue on June 2nd ended in a draw owing to a delayed declaration. Batting first, our score mounted slowly against steady bowling to 85 for 5, George Stairs making a line 37 not out, when we declared with an hour left to play. Time came with the l..C.C. score standing at 60 for 6 wickets. The only Cnder 14 game of the season was against B.C.S. played on the McGill Campus on May .list resulting in a victory for Bishops by the wide margin of 69 runs, B.C.S. scoring H4 to our 45, Gault with 14 being the only one to reach double figures. Qlinluurs M. Lillfe H936 -37j. Captain. A hard-hitting hit or miss batsman who made up in enthusiasm what he lacked in experience. Captained the side well and always ex- celled in the field. D. Stairx Cl936f3'7l. A fine all-rounder who batted and bowled consistently well. XYas especially invaluable as a bowler, and a brilliant fieldsman at mid-off. .1'. lfregg ll935e36-377. With Palmer and Stairs was the mainstay of the attack. NVith a much improved length from the previous season his medium paced bowling was always effective. An erratic batsman who made hay while the sun shone. His ll in the 2nd innings of the Ashbury home game won the match for us. IV. Palmer Cl936f37D. The best all-rounder in the team, brilliant in the field, bowled a steady good length ball, and a line natural bat. Will be the strength of Selwyn House cricket next year. R. Tomfinrozz C1936-37j. Kept wicket excellently all season and had a number of wickets to his credit. As a batsman attacked the bowling hard but lacked defensive strokes and so was usually out before getting set. H. Gaul! fl937D. A very useful opening batsman who could usually be relied on to wear down the bowling. Excellent in the field. Should develop into a really good batsman next year. G. Slain Ql937j. The only left-hander in the team. Had a good eye and hit hard, being especially good on the leg side. His 37 not out against l..C.C. was the best innings of the season. B. Linh- H9371 Could make good use of his baseball technique until bowled by a straight good length ball. With the development of a few defensive strokes should become a very useful batsman. C. Palrlz 119371. Batted only twice in four matches so had little chance to show his worth. Very keen and showed great improvement from the previous season. Will be useful next year. H01 FOR THE YEAR 1937-1938 V. Goldbloom Q1937j. An unorthodox batsman handicapped by lack of experience, but made up for it by his usefulness in the field. T. Bfaiklork Q1937J. Keen in the field but lacked batting experience, and had little opportunity through going in late. Should be of great use to the side next year. jfunthall 1937 Played 5 - Lost 3 H Drawn 2. The 1937 Football season was very disappointing. The Under 15 team played three matches, losing two to Ashbury and playing a scoreless tie with L.C.C. In general the team was younger, slower and less skilful than their opponents, and showed an inability to take advantage of the scoring opportunities offered by their opponents' errors. The forward line consisting of Fleming, Culver, Palmer, Gordon and Birks indivi- dually all went hard, but concerted attacks were frequently spoilt through poor passing and tactics. As a result, the halves, Goodall, Strong and Thompson, and the backs, Little and Blaiklock, often had more than their fair share of the work. Blaiklock at right back always managed to clear well, his kicking and placing being greatly improved since the previous season, and the opposing forwards always had to make a wide detour to get round Pudden Little at left back. The halves were perhaps the most effective part of the team, marking well and always looking for good openings. The Under 1-l team played one match against a very fast and clever B.C.S. team and lost by 6 goals to 1. The Under I3 match against L.C.C. ended in a scoreless draw. Our Special Correspondent on the Sidelines H.F.S. 1 sees all, hears all, misses nothing 1 reports as follows: f .Against B.C.S. Under 1-l, played at Lennoxville on Oct. 23rd. This game was a tie, both teams showing the same faults. Corner kicks were exchanged and a penalty kick was given against us for charging. No one played an outstanding game, but Le- Mesurier in goal kept up his reputation. There was too much Hy-kicking and not enough good passing. Against l..C.C. Under 13. Played at L.C.C. on Oct. 28th. Draw 0-O. The Selwyn House team was the stronger of the two but did not put enough pep into the attack. There was quite a lot of unnecessary fumbling of the ball. Ballon and Dobell both played well but were not supported by the rest of the tea m. If this support had been given S.H.S. would have won easily. Passing very poor as usual. T' Against Ashbury. Under 15. Played at Ottawa on Oct. 30th. Lost l -5. UThis was the only time that our team perked up in the whole season. In the first half LelVlesu- tier in goal and Little and Blaiklock at back all worked very hard as Ashbury kept launching attacks. The second half saw our forward line launch their drive. Several times they were repulsed by Ashbury who scored in the meantime, but at last they were able to push far up and scored on a free kick taken by Goodall. Faults- poor marking and the usual lack of team play. The return match against Ashbury played on the Westmount Grounds on Nov. -lth, conhrmed Ashbury's all-round superiority and was lost Of-l. l4ll Sl-LWYN ll1ll'5l- YCHINJI.

Sixes There were twelve teams in the Sixes this year, captained by Gordon, Fleming, Cleveland, Palmer, Patch, Leblesurier, Little, Gurd, R., Blaiklock, Goodall, Birks,Strong. :Ks usual defensive tactics were the order of the day, and although the scoring was not high there were many good games. The finalists were Gordon and Palmer, with Palmer coming out the winner. PALlVlER'S YI:-ftlennings, Dobell, P., Morgan, Peck, Paterson 1, Dobell 2. Zlauckep 1938 Played -I - XVon 2 - Lost 2. This year, with a good foundation of ice on the school rink before X'mas, the hockey season got orl' to a good start. Tim Blaiklock was elected Captain, and backed by Eve old Colours of the calibre of LeMesurier, Cleveland, Strong, Little, and Goodall, he had no difliculty in filling the vacancies. After a practice game early in the season against L.C.C. the forward lines fell into shape, Gordon playing in the centre of one line to Blaiklock and Goodall, while Palmer was between Birks and Ballon 1 on the other line. Later in the season Fleming replaced Ballon as a regular member of the line. With Sutherland putting up some fine displays in the nets, Blaiklock was enabled to bring Lehlesurier out from the goal in which he had done such fine service for the last two years, to do an equally line job on the defense with Little. On the other defense line Cleveland was all-powerful, and was ably backed up by Strong. The season's matches were opened with an Llnder 13 match against L.C.C. played at the Coliseum on Jan. 19th, and was won 2 - l, Culver and Blaiklock each netting the puck. Apart from the scorers, Ballon 1 and Ballon 2, Goldbloom and Gault all combined well up forward, while Strong, Stairs, and Shuter gave line covering to Sutherland in goal. The first Under 15 game was against L.C.C. on Feb. 16th. and was lost 0-3 to a faster, heavier and all-round better team. But the improvement over the practice game earlier in the season was very marked, and the team is to be congratulated on keeping the score down to a 3 goal margin and a scoreless first period. On Feb. 18th. Ashbury visited us and we tallied a spectacular 6 - 1 victory on the Coliseum ice. The whole team were at their very best, passing, checking, and making the most of every opportunity that was offered. Thegoal scorers were Birks, Fleming, Blaiklock, LeMesurier, and Gordon C21 l43l LNI vi MIN SIQIJYYY IIUl'SIi SCHOOL SIAM,-XZINI-Q The I'L'flll'II gzimc alt Axlilmury on lfclu, loth was lcv xiicccwtiul, Axlihury being on uii' top forni while wc put up lint gi poor ilixplgiy .ir Ivor.

In spite of the excellent conditions in the Laurentians, the mountain was often in poor shape so that there were less opportunities of taking advantage of Mr. K. Smith's tuition than had been hoped. On Feb. 19th. a team of four consisting of Palmer, Strong, Gordon, and Fleming entered for a junior Inter-School meet on the Wiestmount Mountain. In competition with two Westmount High teams and teams from Montreal High and St. Leo's, the team came third in the 6 mile cross-country relay, each member doing a 114 mile course which was hard packed all the way and in places icy. The team also entered the Downhill but was not placed. l45l 1 A I T. I.. C L1 I Q L1 LJ , 'J Q A ..a. f Lf x.. I A L. LJ +5 I A A U L1 x.. 11 A Q K LJ LJ 'S Z A!

Much preparatory labour was performed by our Scouts in setting up the exhibit in our booth, and the members of the Troop who spent a large part of the holidays working at the exhibition enjoyed the feeling of satisfaction which comes from the experience ofa hard -iob well done. Our exhibit could not have been a success without the generous loans of saddles, harness, etc., from Major G.C. Riley, Dr. M. C. Baker, the late Mr. C..-X. Bradbury, and parents and friends of our Scouts. Su m m er Term : On May llth the Troop was represented in the Kings Scout Parade at the Corona- tion Day celebration on the McGill campus, by King's Scout M. Little. The Scout Half Holiday occurred on June Sth. We went up to the Mountain and had a programme of games, harried by a cloud of mosquitoes. Large amounts of ice cream and sandwiches were consumed by the Troop. Rockets were set ol? by Scout Scott. Patrol Leader Chevalier and his Patrol Second B. Little presented prizes to Scouts Thompson and Baillargeon of their Patrol, the Foxes, for good scouting. The Scout prizes and awards for the year were presented at the School Prize giving, and are to be found in the list of prizes elsewhere in this magazine. Iyiflfff' Term.

Patrol l,eader l.ittle has passed the pilrts of the Sphinx Patrol course which have been given so far this season. Patrol l.eader Chevalier became a member of the Sphinx Patrol last year. The Sphinx Patrol consists of Patrol Leaders who have passed a special course of training in leadership given by the Boy Scout Association. Our Troop has been complimented by the Scout authorities on the excellent record its Patrol Leaders have maintained, ever since the inauguration of the Sphinx course, in achieving membership in the Sphinx Patrol.

Neither spoke, yet as they strolled leisurely up and down in the cool night air there seemed to be a vivid sense of awareness, a tension existing between them. The boy felt strained and was thinking ff thinking furiously, and the damp sweat stood out upon his brow. For him the moment of crisis had arrived, the moment in which he must speak to her, tell her his true feelings, plead with her even, or forever call himself coward. .-Xnd yet the words refused to come, his lips seemed like barriers which held his thoughts imprisoned, rendering their utterance impossible! Inwardly he was cursing himself for an utter and abject idiot. Oh why, why, wasn't he able to speak ? Surely it couldn't be so very difficult. Thousands of young men went through this same thing every day of the year and here he was balking at the first jump. Of course she was dif- ferent, he told himself. She might laugh, and he couldn't stand that. Still - The woman was looking at him. She touched his arm. Bill , she said softly. What is it ?

The bar- rier was shattered that hitherto had rendered him helpless, he no longer felt afraid. He spoke, and his voice carried assurance. Yes , he said, there is something. It's only my cursed bashfulness that has held me back up to now. He paused and took one of her hands in his. .-Xuntie , he went on, XYill you lend me fifteen dollars F I spent all I had coming here tonight, and I'll need it for the races to-morrow STEVIE LE-XCOCK, lU.S.1.
