The year just closed has indeed been a trying one in many ref spects and yet it has not been entirely devoid of bright spotszn none brighter than the magnificent teamfwork of masters, prefects and boys. And now the School begins a new chapter. What a wonderful significance the word School possesses: that intangible thing which goes on despite change of personnel and curriculum ! And now we look forward to the time when the School will again be an entity, even in a financial sense: and some doubt whether it can be achieved. But some of us have so much confidence in the old School that we believe it can. And so we make the clarion call to the Old Boys, wherever they may beg Let us pull together. You ref present the Past: we the Present: it requires our joint efforts to make the Future. And if each one does his part loyally, the Future will be as bright as the Past. G.H.S.. -5,

School Notes The School was proud to bear its part in celebrating the Silver jubilee of His Majesty King George V. The day was a whole holif day: but in the morning all Boys and Masters attended a brief ser' vice in the Quad, under the Flagfpole, from which the Union jack was flown. The Rev N. E. Smith, Rector of St. Barnabas, and father of one of the boys gave us a most inspiring address. The ceremony closed with the singing of the National Anthem and three cheers for Their Majesties. Pk wk wk els The School extends a hearty welcome to Mr. P. F. Howden, an old Master, who spent the years 1925729 at University School.
