Erinitg Qlnllvgr Srhnnl KPHYID 4 hitnrial. After a long Term at Woodstock we have had ample opportun- ity to realise how fortunate we have been in securing Woodstock College for a temporary home. With the big change came several minor changes, which we think have come to stay: chief among which is the small study. The fire was a veritable disaster, but out of the Old School's ashes will rise a noble building, or rather group of buildings, which will defy comparison throughout the length and breadth of Canada. This we shall owe to the generosity of many Old Boys and friends and to the indefatigable spirit of our Headmaster. On Speech Day plans were on view which undoubtedly bear out the truth of the above and we hope that those who managed to see them will carry away a better idea of our prospects than any words of ours can paint. Then also, the Headmaster outlined the pro- gramme of building for the next year, which amounted- to this, that possibly by September, 1929, and certainly by January, 1930, two Dormitory and Study Houses, Class-Room Building, Dining Room. and Gymnasium with swimming pool will be completed, the latter in November, 1928, in view of the needs of the Junior School. Enough for the futureg with such golden hopes before us let us take care of the present with thoroughness in scholastic and physi- cal application, for it is almost a certainty that we shall not auto- matically take our places in the new School. but shall have to show promise compatible with the nobility of the pile and the sacrifice

ff TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD of those who made its completion possible. The gratitude that we feel for all the sympathy and practical aid lavished on us can best be expressed here. From far and wide we have been the recipients of kindness, material and spiritual, and as the Record goes to every corner of the globe, through these pages we are sending a compre- hensive message of sincere thanks and hope the Schoo1's future justifies your confidence in us. We beg to acknowledge the extremely generous donation which came to our Library Fund from the St. Andrew's College prefects. S200 will go a long way towards laying the foundation of a new library in Port Hope. Many, many thanks, St. Andrew's! We are also grateful to Trinity College, Scotland, who sent the sum of their last Sunday's offertory for use in the new Chapel. And we still have a heart full of gratitude for. Mrs. Gordon Osler, Mrs. Britton Osler, Mrs. Cartwright as President of the Lad- ies' Guild. Mrs. Jemmett and Mrs. Gibson for considerable gifts ,in the form of furniture to beautify our new surroundings. ' Cricket was not without its bright spots, though we won only one Little Big Four game. The Upper Canada game gave us a thrill as the issue was in doubt till less than 15 minutes from time. The fielding was good all round in this game and some mighty strokes on both sides enlivened the proceedings, but above all Thompson is to be congratulated on his splendid 66 not out which undoubtedly won the game. And lastly let us wish those leaving us every success in their examinations and to all a happy holiday.
