He carries with him our bast wishes for his success and happiness. In a recent Guardian we noticed a fav- ourable review of Rev. A. J. Belt ' s ( ' 74- ' 76) book, ' ' From Jerusalem to Jerusalem ; on which we congratulate him. J. (). Browne ( ' S - ' gj) stood first in the re- cent examination held for candidates for Holy Orders by the Bishop of Manchester. A. D. Strathy ( ' 9o- ' 96) has left the Traders ' B.tnk and goes into a stockbroker ' s office. We have to thank him for forwarding Dibb ' s letter to us and we only wish that others would follow his e.xample. M. S. McCarthy ( ' 83- ' 9o), one of our most loyal Old Boys, is practising law at Stratford in partnership with J. Idington, Q C. D. McM. Rogers ( ' SS- 92) and E. S. Senkler ( ' 87- ' 94) are pursuing the same profession at Victoria and Brockville. Several more Old Boys have gone or are going to the Klondyke. V. M. Ogilvie ( ' gi) has gone as guide to a party. J. S. Cart- wright ( ' 9o- ' 93) and E. Evatt ( ' 72- ' 73) have also started. We wish them all success in their (juest. L. M. Lyon ( ' cS5- ' 93) has returned from England and is now in Toronto. A. L.

K. McLaren ( ' 86- ' 92) has been gazetted lieutenant in the xiii Battalion — his father ' s regiment. If the McLarens only do as well by their regiment as by their School they will add lustre to an already distinguished body. We are glad to be able to say that E. F. I ' uUen ( ' 96- ' 97) has recovered from his accident last term. All of us miss his bright face and wish he were back with us once more. R. P.

THE CRICKET CLUB. The meeting of the Cricket Club was held on March 29th. With the limited space at our disposal, and considering the amount of cricket that finds a place in this number, we have thought it well not to publish the averages which really belong to the past school year and have appeared in the daily papers. The prospects for 1898 are very fair. Dug- gan is Captain and s!iould get a lot of runs and be well backed up by Saunders, Patter- son and Reid. The bowling promises to be better than last year; Hindes and Saunders will be our mainstays, and Hammond and one or two others shape well There are two candidates for tl.e wickets, and among the youngsters several very |)r( !nising cricketers. But we must work harder at the nets and in practise than last year. {juX every one, no matter who he is or on what crease, make it a personal matter to see that our xi is good, by doing his best himself Read Saunders ' letter everybody, read it and mark it well. Let us play the game in its true spirit, not merely to win — that is pleasant we all know, but a very secondary consideration— but (or itself and for true love of sport and with all our might, For, as the old song truly says, Cricket is a noble game. ®lt) 360 6 ' (lolmun. OBITUARY. We regret to have to announce the death of H. Abbott, Q.C. ( ' 74- ' 75) who died in Florida on March 5th from heait failure. Though comparatively a young man .Abbott l ad a distinguished career. He served in the militia from ' 78 to ' 84 and again in the Riel rebellion. He was elected a Vice-President of the O. B. A. in ' 95 and always showed a deep interest in all matters concerning the School. Frank }. Morgan ( ' 8 - ' 91 and ' 93- ' 94) died at Cleveland on February 26lh of consumption. To the last he spoke in most affectionate terms both of the School and of the Headmaster : it would be hard to find a more loyal old boy than Morgan shewed him- self Charles Gamon ( 77 - ' 79) was drowned in Collingwood Harbour last December, and his body was only recovered on March i8th.

Annual St ' HscRiPTioN , --- 50 cents. 1 — The Trinity term is perhaps the busiest, as well as the pleasantest, of the year. For many it has a pleasure tinged with regret from the thought that it is the last they will spend under the roof where they have made many a friend and spent many a happy day, and for others who have never been here for a summer term it is a revela- tion that more than compensates for the necessarv dulness of the winter months. So far this term we have nothing very special to chronicle. As usual several are going in for the University and the R. .M.C Exams, and we hope they may win honour for their School and for themselves. The School Exams, will begin about the 21st or 22nd of June, and we would remind all that, even if they have not used their time to advantage, there are still three weeks and much may be done in them. Trinity term, too, is the cricket term, which means much atT.C.S., though, unfortunately, we have hardly had as successful a season, up to the present, as we could have hoped for ; but failures must not dishearten us. The eleven is improving steadily, and in our next number we hope to tell a different tale. There is lots of talent; hard work is all we need, and who would not work to win a victory for the School in the great matches of the year ? It is pleasant to be al)le to announce an increase in numbers this term, which we hope will be more than maintained in September. May we be allowed to .say a few words about the School grouiuls and the duly lying on everyone to do his share in keeping them tidy ? Certainly there has been a marked improve- ment in that respect this term, but there is still room for more, particularly in front of the School. Orange peel, photograph plates, an occasional sponge or ink bottle, news[)apers and envelopes may be a pleasing form of garden decoration in some parts of the country, but our tastes are, as yet, hardly educated to such giddy heights. ' Ihe ties, too, now in vogue are liable to scorch the grass rather than to act as a fertilizer, and we have failed so far to see the beauty, much less the usefulness, of pieces of stick, stones and candy bags on a cricket ground. How- ever, the man who sharpens the mowing machines may possibly give us some infor- mation on this point. Seriously, though, let everyone do his best to keep the grounds tidy. We are proud of our buildings, grounds and situation, let the pride take a practical form. We are requested to state that tlie sum of $20.46, which was collected to put up the names of the Prefects in the Prefects ' study, and which the Head Master has held for some vears, has been handed over in trust to the Treasurer of the O.H.A. The sum is totally inadequate for the purpose for which it was intended, but possibly it may be augmented, and the names then put up. We wish to draw the attention of Old Boys to the dates of the School matches. Ridley is at Rosedale on Friday, June loth ; U ' C.C, at Port H )pe on June 25th. .At both of them we hope to see a goodly num- ber of Old r.oy.s. The xi play in Hamilton on June i ith. We had hoped to jirint the first of a series of articles on the history of the School in this number, hut Dr. Osier, who has promised to write it, was unable to finish it in lime.
