14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The Choir There were many friendly faces missing when the choir reassembled this term, among them Wade, Taylor i loboel, Gilbert, Palmer, Grier, Stokes, Hibbard, all from the Bass section. Caldbick, Crowe and Hawke i from the Tenors and Prower from the Altos. Without exception a more faithful, cheerful and use- ful lot of boys could not be more missed by any Choir- master and our sincere thanks are theirs for assistance. Nor must the Trebles be forgotten or their contribu- tion in time and effort be overlooked, Strathy, Peters. Lawson and Woods who were treble leads, also Moffitt and McKinnon, all have moved up to the Senior School and are not in the Choir pending vocal adjustment. As the Choristers were called upon to do the majority of the work in the Pirates of Penzance , both principals and chorus, entailing much extra practice, opportunities to prepare special music for Chapel services were curtailed considerably. We hope somehow to remedy this, this year. We welcome many new members who have volunteered to assist us. The Choir at present is as follows: Bass-Curtis, Taylor i, Campbell ii, Campbell iii, Law- son i, Deverall, Thompson ii, Pearson, James, Dalley, Powell. Tenors-Goering, Stewart, Watts, Newcomb, Graham and Boulden. Altos-Cooper, McKenzie, Butterfield, Bovey, and Tench and Ketchum from the J.S. Trebles CJ.S.J--Wilding, Farley, Levey, Spencer, Mc- Cullagh, Willoughby, Price, Woolley, McDonough, Symons. Anderson, Norman, Hunt, Clark, Seagram and Southam. Probationers-Fitzgerald, Meredith, Nevin, Osler ii, Strathy and Richardson. .i.... ..Ti -

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 who merited this privilege. Just before the feast was to begin, a stranger entered and declared that he was the only man present who deserved the honour of sitting at the King's right. On finding that he was the blacksmith, the man who had done all the hard work and who had made the tools for those who were now getting the credit, the King immediately invited him to take the disputed place. This story, he pointed out, shows us that it has been largely the work of the unknown and unrecognized which has given us the great heritage which is ours. It is the duty of everyone to strive to live up to the principles of Christianity, for it is only through Christianity that we shall achieve progress, happiness and world-wide peace. In closing Mr. Crisall quoted Tennyson's famous lines Be loyal to the Royal , from which comes our challenge to help to lead the way to a better world, through the fel- lowship of our Lord, Jesus Christ. On Sunday, October 7, the Headmaster spoke in Chapel. He quoted the qualities mentioned by Field Marshal Viscount Montgomery as being vital in war and now more necessary than ever in peace. They were discipline, leader- ship and morale. The only worthwhile discipline in a democracy is self discipline, leadership comes through at- taining character C the sum of one's best thoughts and experiences translated into action J and respect, and morale is the product of faith and confidence in oneself and one's ideals. The Headmaster mentioned some gold ore which had been given to the School and said it reminded him of the vein of gold in every human beingg it had to be discovered, one had to dig for it, and then refine it. To-day we are at the cross roads of world progress. We have more power at our command than ever before but if We take the wrong path, become fearful and hostile, we shall slip into a dark age. God is our hope and strength and we must be doers of the Word and not hearers only.
