TRAFALGAR 1917-1918 SCHOOL SONG Tune, Marching Through Georgia. Fortiter — Fideliter — Feliciter A hundred years and more have passed since Nelson sailed the seas, But still, the flag he died to save, floats hi h on every breeze, And still we keep in memory his year of victories At our good old school of Trafalgar. Chorus. Hurrah! Hurrah! our heroes of the sea! Hurrah! Hurrah! for Canada so free! Then our third and last hurrah! the greatest of the three, For our good old school of Trafalgar! To fill their pails with knowledge ,like a modern Jack and Jill, For quarter of a century, our girls have climbed the hill. The mother climbed before her and the daughter ' s climbing still . To the good old school of Trafalgar. Chorus Hurah! Hurrah! Trafalgar ' s blue and white! Hurrah! Hurrah! we hail them with delight. Whether at games or lessons, we will work with all our might To uphold the colours of Trafalgar. This day to do our duty is Trafalgar ' s motto true. Courageously and happily, we learn to do it too. When days are dark and stormy or when skies are bright and blue We uphold the motto of Trafalgar. Chorus. Fortiter , with courage now we say, Fideliter , where duty points the way. And then the last— feliciter —we ' re happy all the day At our good old school of Trafalgar. 22

They therefore, offer to publishin the next munbers of Echoes the best couple of verses which complete this song. Tune Macushla Trafalgar, Trafalgar Our beacon, thou art ever; Guide us, help us. Our aim to pursue, Teach us in all things. Ever to love thee: To trust thee, to shield thee Uphold thee, all through. Trafalgar, our mainstay In moments perplexing. A firm rock of knowledge Of Nelson renown. Trafalgar, Trafalgar, In fond adoration. We hail thee, we laud thee Trafalgar, our own. MARJORIE ANNABLE. Form II la Tune— Polly, Wolly, Doodle Trafalgar is a splendid school, Which many girls adore. Merry faces you do see. And merry words do pour. Chorus Hurrah! hurrah! hurrah! for good old Trafalgar For Fam off to go, to the Gym you know To play basket-ball. After prayers, come lessons, Much to the girls ' regret, But soon comes recreation. Which they cannot forget. Chorus Hurrah! hurrah! hurrah! etc. 24
