TRAFALGAR ECHOES FROM Simpson Street, Trafalgar appears a modern building; in fact its corner stone was laid in 1956 by the Rt. Hon. Vincent Massey. However, around the cor- ner on McGregor Street is a re- minder of the old school — a much worn, carved door, saved when part of the bviilding was torn down. Another noteworthy door is found, or perhaps lost, behind the shelves of the library. Lost indeed, for from the hall it does not appear even to exist, covered over as it is by a wall of blue. In that same hall hangs an etching of Admiral Nelson at the battle of Trafalgar. Farther along is our collection plate, which con- tains copper from Nelson ' s Victory, and was cast in 1905, the hundredth anniversary of the battle. There is a similar navy memento in the gymnasium, a shield presented to the school by Lord Strath- cona, one of our most distinguished trustees. His picture also hangs in the library corridor, in company with those of various other members of the board. There too is a photograph of Donald Ross, our founder. Besides setting aside money for the construction of the school, this gentleman asked that the motto of his family, Spem Successus Alit, become that of the school. He also bequeathed to us the portraits of his wife and sister-in-law which now hang in the middle corridor. It is on the record that Donald Ross left to the school his microscope and telescope, but they have long since disappeared. The subject of the old school is a very entertaining one, and, from the copy of the Magna Carta beside the junior locker room to the portrait of Mary Stuart opposite, the building and its contents never cease to surprise. Heather Marshall, Arts VI, Fairley House THE HOUSES 1964-65 THE HOUSES have all done very well this year, and although the final results will not be known for a while yet, we realize that everyone has worked very hard and been a good sport. The first main event was the House Competition which took place in November. The theme for this year ' s plays was children ' s stories. Ross House [19]
