PHYSICAI EDUCA TION The whole person is one who has a trained body as well as a trained mind and here at Balmoral Hall, Physical Education is becoming an important part of our School programme. A widening circle of opportunities in our games world provides every girl with a chance to participate, and foolish is the student who passes by the opportunity to learn some new skill each year. Increased participation in inter-School games, continued keen and enthusiastic rivalry in House matches and the eagerness of new girls to learn new skills, emphasize the importance of our physical education programme today. For whom is the games programme? The athlete enjoys the challenge which combines an alert mind, enthusiasm, purpose, teamwork and physical stamina. The student recognizes the valuable mental relaxation provided by a games period. A physically exhausting match can sometimes be just the refreshment needed to solve an academic problem. The development of a strong and healthy body is only one of the many facets of physical education. More significant are the character-building qualities, which games seem to instill in the more active participants - comradeship, leadership and sportsmanship. Friendships often develop from competitive spirits striving together to attain a common goal. On the games field and in the gymnasium are found opportunities to lead, and there too one learns a willingness to be led. Most important is the gradual growth of true sportsmanship. Beginning with games in the junior school and right on to the last school match, the student is learning how to play the game fairly and to accept the outcome in a sportsmanlike manner, whether the result be victory or defeat. This surely is a training for life. To set the cause above renown, To love the game beyond the prizef' H. J.

UNITED NA TIONS This December, I enjoyed the experience of being one of three Manitoba high school students chosen to attend a Model United Nations in Mountain Lake, Minnesotag rough- ly one hundred other delegates, from Min- nesota and Wisconsin, also participated. Each attending delegation was assigned a country other than their own to represent. The delegates' objective was to learn the position taken by the adopted nation on va- rious controversial world situations, and to defend the position. The purpose of this was to increase the students' worldwide interests, to make them more broadmindedg for they often had to argue in favor of a policy with which they did not personally agree. As we were the only non-American dele- gation, we represented the United States of Americag this was a difficult task for us, as so many authorities on American policy were present. The first session of the General Assembly opened on a humorous note, for we were NH' introduced to the members of the Canadian delegation who were wearing name tags bearing the Canadian ensign. On our insis- tence they raised a point of order, and the president promised to rectify the situation immediately. This was followed by other epi- sodes, such as the Indian delegation picket- ing the cafeteria, where roast beef was being served, and the Communist Block continually staging demonstrations against the West. But the day was also filled with inform- ation and profitable discussion. We argued heatedly with Russia on methods of enforc- ing nuclear disarmament, and with Britain on the emerging African states. I even had occasion to attack Canadian financial policy on peace-keeping operations. In the evening we concluded with a ban- quet, at which our delegation was honoured by a standing ovation for so successfully giving the conference an international flav- our. Respectfully submitted, NANCY LITTLE vvwvvv v vrvvvvvvvvvvvvvv vv v'v'vv vvvvvvvv -1.2 Balmoral Hall June, 1966 My dear Girls, My letter this year is set within the framework of some well - known phrases. There is something here for each of you. LET SOMETHING GOOD BE SAID. This well-known inscription, carved in the mantel-piece of the Music Room, is for all of us, but today it is for you who are graduating. As you enter the wider world b e y o n d your School days, the choice is yours to condemn, to criticize, to gossip, or ,whenever possible to let something good be said . My very best wishes go with you as you fare forth in new fields. MENS SANA IN CORPORE SAND A sound mind in a sound body Here is a phrase to think about. Canada's youth can well look with some dismay at to- day's world. Your chance to lead or to help your husbands who will be leaders, is coming. Lea- dership depends on a sound mind in a sound body. Use every opportunity to pursue knowledge and form habits of discipline and exercise to develop a sound body. LIFE OFFERS MANY AN EASY PRIZE, CHRIST POINTS THE HARDER WAYQ' This brings to mind the matter of choice. We are all free to be kind or unkind, to deceive or be honest, to be courteous or rude. The Christ in us speaks quite audibly and we hear Him, and yet to avoid punishment, to gain marks or to win t'friends we often choose the easy way. If you are ever in doubt be sure that He is a very safe leader. For those of you who reach the end of this letter I have a special message. It is written particularly for next yearls leaders, but it is for all of you who are returning. September will usher in a very special school year - a year filled with happy surprises ,different opportunities and new challenges. Together with all of Canada, Balmoral Hall is preparing for one of its most exciting years in history. Even now I can see today's graduates joining you with their alumnae- look as they return to honour our opening day on Thursday, September 8. Until then may you all have a happy, happy summer.

Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune . . Y' 'Julius Caesari' Though Form VI completes a twelve years segment of our life labelled Hschool-days , the end of this year for us is really a be- ginning. We have been preparing ourselves for the unknown fields of business, nursing or university, where perhaps some of us will make important contributions through science and the arts or in practical ways, to the com- munity where we find ourselves. At this turning point or tide in the careers and the lives of those of us who will be graduating let us review and assess our years at Balmoral Hall and by doing so try to enrich our future with some plan to carry on what we have learned here. No matter at what age we entered the school, and some of us started in kindergar- ten, we wereall eventually welcomed with a riotous Octo-ber ceremony called Initiation. In our final year at the school we were given the responsibility of running and planning this School Captain Head Girl event as well as other such s-tudent pro- JUDITH DOWLER NANCY LITTLE grammes. We have found many and various ways to serve our school. These opportunities have included singing in the school choir, serving on the library and magazine committees and playing on School or House teams. The house system at Balmoral Hall has given us an excellent means of working to- gether towards a common goal. When we were too young to participate in various school committees, we could serve our house and the school by keeping our shoes shiny and our names out of the Conduct Book. Some of us were called upon to be house heads or school leaders and some of us received the great honour of being appointed a prefect. It is not for us to judge how successful we have been but the experience of self-discipline and the opportunity to lead others has been both challenging and rewarding. These experiences we will take with us and hope to us in new fields. By the time we have reached Form VI, many of us have had a share in resident life. Boarding at school is one of the most interesting and rewarding experiences a girl of our age can enjoy. Who can forget the Christmas dinners, trips to the Ballet, to the Theatre Centre, and the impromptu pizza parties? No matter how far we spread afield what fun it will always be our B.H. friends all across the world. The memories of school prayers, the Christmas Carol Service, and the stirring an- thems the choir has sung, rush back to me as I reminisce and I know that the Closing Even- song and the last day of school prayers will mean more than ever to the graduating class, as it is we who must say farewell and you who must carry on. Even with the gateway to the future open before us, we take this backward glance at our happy days at this school. Be sure that in future years we will return for opening days, for special events and for House prayers. Whether or not this high moment in our life Hleads on to fortune we won't forget our school's traditions, its history and all that Balmoral Hall has given to us. JUDITH DOWLER - School Captain Iffllllt 7, 5lGN-E TS FORGET ME NOT Land ho! The cry, ringing through the early morn- ing mist, was caught up and spread over the deck, finally reaching the ears of the voyageurs sleeping in the crowded hold. A general clamour grew as shaking off their drowsiness, they jostled and shoved their way uo the ladder to the deck, eager for a glimpse of their new land after the long voyage from France. The New World! God be praised! Their excited cries echoed over the water. Although the hold was nearly empty now, its atmosphere remained oppressive, afford- ing no relief to the few people who had remained below. The debris littering the floor made free movement impossible, and the odour resulting from the two month voyage was suffocating. In a small alcove, a young girl shook her head and sighed as the last excited group disappeared up the ladder. In spite of the stench and filth, she welcomed a chance to compose herself before they landed, without the accustomed noise and confusion. Now as the door overhead closed, she sat in the semi- darkness lost in thought. Could it really be only two months ago the she, Helene Pascal, had bidden farewell to her home, her family, indeed, to her youth, and had set sail from France? It seemed an eternity had passed, and yet she could recall vividly, with nostalgia and some bitterness every detail of the events leading to her de- parture. She had been setting the table for dinner when her father had entered the cottage with 1 Q f N 'A 3? 5 as X R if his news. The little ones had run to meet him, and her mother, stirring the soup over the immense fireplace, had smiled her cus- tomary greeting. But that day, instead of swinging the childen to his shoulders, he had stood framed in the doorway, and taking a deep breath, had recited the news which had changed her life so drastically. Helene could still see his face and hear his excited voice as he related the story which was being spread through the village: Mon- sieur Talon, just returned from the colony across the sea, New France fdid not the very name suggest the youth and promise of the land?l was offering to pay one thou- sand francs to any family who would send a daughter to the colony. It seemed this new land, so wealthy in so many respects, lacked wives for her men, and mothers to raise the children who would become the heirs of her bounty. Would it not be a wonderful thing for Helene to travel to this New France, this land of opportunity and so play a part in building the king's empire? Until a suit- able husband was found, she would be able to live with Uncle Gaspar and Aunt Therese, who had sailed to Gaspe ten years previously. And so, scarcely before she had grasped the import of her father's words Helene had found her life completely altered. Of course, there had been a great deal of talk about the wonderful opportunity and experience her venture would provide, but she knew that the offer of money had been the main factor in her parents' decision and she had been hurt and indignant that her parents would sell her thus. Although they lived in need, like so many French peasants. she had always felt aloof from the grasping .Yin and misery of the other families. In her home there had been poverty, yes, but it had not erased their love for one another. Fighting back her tears, she had run for solace, and there, as she wandered along her beloved paths, she had forced herself to accept the future which had been thrust upon her. Remembering the needs of her small sisters and brothers, she had come to think of her venture not as a burden to be borne with resentment, but as a sacrifice to the love which her home and family held for her. Indeed, her parents' talk of oppor- tunity and challenge had ill hidden their pangs of conscience and sense of loss, for they felt genuine sorrow at sending their daughter to face the unknown alone. Had times been better - a larger harvest, a less demanding monseigneur, perhaps .... But such was not the case, and as preparations for her departure continued, the thought that she was sacrificing herself, for her family had partially compensated for her grief in leaving them. But Andre! Nothing could ever compen- sate for the sense of loss she felt at parting from him. Sighing, she reached beneath her sleeping blanket, and pulled out a small Bible, her only tangible memory of home. Pressed carefully between the pages at which she opened it, was a small bouquet of with- ered blue blossoms, forget-me-nots, a fare- well gift from her Andre. As she gazed rev- erently at them, a wave of resentment welled up in her, not against her family, nor against the hardship of her journey, but rather against her new home and the unknown man who would one day become her husband. It was they who had taken her away from France, preventing her inevitable betrothal to Andre and her subsequent happiness. No, grief for her family could be softened by sac- rifice, but nothing could compensate for her separation from Andre. The delighted shouts of those on deck awakened her from her reverie, and her awareness of the rubbish and foul air around her returned. Carefully replacing her precious Bible, she stood up and picked her way through the belongings strewn on the floor to the ladder. She must see New France soon- er or later she told herself, in spite of her effort to sound resigned, she was surprised by the curiosity she felt as she made her way up the ladder. Once on deck, she found a place by the rail and looked out across the sea. Yes, there against the horizon was a black rise which must be the land. Is that what everyone is excited about then? she asked her neighbour, trying to Tcn sound scornful. Yet she could not explain the strange exhilaration which she felt aris- ing in her - surely it was the effect of the unaccustomed fresh air. As the distant shore loomed closer, she became openly interested in spite of herself. For the first time since leaving France, she forgot her homesickness and seasickness, and found herself wondering about the future in- stead of dwelling on the past. What would this New France really be like? In the distance she discerned with de- light the forests which lined the shore. The thought of trees in the New World was new to her, and she found it strangely comforting. Her thoughts turned to her uncle and his family. Would they be very much changed? Ten years had passed since she had last seen them but she could clearly recall her cousins, Jeanine and Pierot, who had been her childhood playmates. It would be plea- sant to have someone her own age to help her at first. She looked self-consciously at her dress, torn and travel-stained from the voyage, and remembered how proud of it she had been in St. Malo. A gift from Mon- sieur Talon to all the girls sailing to New France, it had been her first new dress, but now . . . Whatever would her cousins think of her! She caught herself in surprise, wondering that her thoughts could turn to pleasing someone other than Andre. Yet, as the ship drew into the harbour at Gaspe, she could not help but think about the family and future which awaited her on the shore. The crowds lining the dock cheered as the boat entered the bay, for the arrival of a ship from France was always an event. The passengers alighted first, eyes wide with expectancy, taking in as much of their new world as they could. In spite of a last effort at indifference and scorn, Helene found her- self as excited as her companions, and thrilled at the sights and sounds of her new home. Making her way somewhat timidly through the crowd, she heard someone call her name, and turning, found herself confronted by Uncle Gaspard and Aunt Therese, a little older but otherwise the same, and welcoming her as their own daughter. Behind them were Jeanine and Pierot - how handsome he had grown! - and several smaller cousins whom she had never met. Due introductions were made, and then she was swept to their wagon amid a barrage of questions and laughter. She was installed in the wagon and they were on their way to the homestead before Pierot, prompted by a younger sister, remem- bered the gift they had brought. With some embarrassment, he handed her a sprig of delicate pink blossoms. We thought you might enjoy these as a welcome. They grow wild here in the woods. We call them the roses of New France. As she looked at the ring of smiling faces, Helene was touched. t'Thank you all, she said. They are truly lovely, and I be- lieve I shall save them in my Bible to remind me of this, my arrival in my new land. And as she opened her Bible, a small dry bouquet of blue forget-me-nots fell out onto the dust of the road and were left behind, unnoticed.

I was forced to concentrate deeply - mainly on the end of my pencil. After staring stupidly at a sheet of blank paper for half an hour I decided that this was getting me nowhere and so I made a list of talents. Completing this, I crossed off all those I did not possess. Thus I had a prob- lem to solve - where would I find another sheet of paper? I was quite plain that the other sheet could not be used simply because it was covered with red marks. Using my head I decided that my bountiful, if some- what hidden talents, did not include essay writing. Looking at the paper I discovered many things about me - mainly that swimming. skiing, skating, playing the piano, drawing or dancing were most certainly not among my talents. In defence, I asked an empty room if anyone had all these talents, and knowing the answer, replied, Once more unto the breach, dear friends, to my leaky pen ,torn 'blotting paper and dictionary. Having settled those things which did not concern me I thought upon things that I had done with a certain amount of ability. Listing them, I discovered that during the past summer I had done many such things as mowing the lawn. Mowing the lawn is not easy, it takes skill. The first thing that one needs to know is how to operate the machine. Usually this is very complicated, but ours is different. It is an old 'fpush and it goes type which proved easy on my brain, if not on my arms. Once the machine is going, the rest is easy. .lust watch for all kinds of matter - vegetable, mineral, or animal, since when ap- proaching the matter the mower seems to get a spurt of energy and runs directly for what- ever it is. This can prove embarrassing, especi- ally when one knocks down a minister who has come to visit. It is equally important to be careful not to get a shoelace caught in the blades, unless of course, you have a great desire to be a martyr to automation. I decided that my talent was not mowing lawns, and as my mother was massaging my aching arms, I thought that perhaps my superior talents were better suited to a higher plane of cul- ture. After this I drew an easier breath. Every girl can cook. My first dessert followed one of my mother's meals, but everyone seemed to have difficulty in downing even a small helping of my cake. From this and other culinary experiences I came to the conclusion that my talents were not suited for homemakingg unless of course, an agreeable millionaire comes along and car- ries me away to his castle in Spain, where, dressed only in originals, I shall emerge, oc- casionally, to lecture on how a person with no talents can marry a rich man and live happily everafter.

BRUCE H11 rr lr HOW T0 l05E FRIENDS The old saying, 'LA friend in need is a friend indeed, and Friendship is golden, are just fine for many people, but I often wonder what one is to quote if one doesn't want friends. I have yet to see a saying, poem or article on the art of losing friends - an art that is practised more and more each day. Feeling that such a common art should be given due recognition, I inked my feather, so to speak, and decided to write an article on the subject myself. The first major step to be taken is to be able to cling. Don't let your friend out of your sight. Wherever she goes, you go. Act like a vine and do not let go. Haunt her so that the last thing she sees when she goes to bed is you and the first person she sees when she wakes up in the morning is you. Just for added effect, copy her in dress, make-up, hair styles and activities. Stay with her all day, completely monopolizing her time and never take a get lost hint. Most of all, when she makes plans with someone else, get jealous. Be possessive and make a scene. Ac- cuse her of ignoring you. And don't take sec- ond place to anybody or anything. To take another step in the right direction, you must master the technique of smothering your friend with affection, gifts and praise. Lavish her with expensive presents and be sure she knows the cost. Maul her in -public and sulk if she won't play the best friends act and maul you too. Compliment her all the time, even if she is most undeserving of it. Boast about her to everybody. She will ap- preciate the public attention. You may find that some may need more attention than others and you must regulate your flow of tender loving care to fit the personality. If you cannot gossip. you may be a failure. How can you lose a friend if you don't tell all her intimate secrets to someone else? This brings me to what you should tell fher. Open your heart to her and let her know all your problems, secret worries and complaints. Cry on her shoulder often so that she will feel worried. And above all, be funny. Tell things to her all the time that you find particularly amusing and. if she does not laught, remem- ber -- we all cannot have a sense a humor. The last but important step towards losing a friend is to learn the proper method of em- barrassing her in public. Talking and laughing often does the trick ibut it sometimes takes a little more. You can try flirting, talking back to salesclerks, or singing while on the escalator and, if all else fails, shoplifting and getting caught does the trick every time. If all the above steps are taken and you still cannot lose that friend. forget it. You are just too nice. LAURA JOHNSTON - Form IV Tn r'l1'1 The Goclless Na tion Once we stood victorious ,proud, Praised by many an eye and crowdg We were sure, and strong, and wise, We were hated and despised. Honoured by all who served and loved. Cherished as that sacred dove. Strong nations fell into our way, Toppled from their mighty swayg Lords and princes all bowed down Paying homage to our crown, Dutifully the victims yield While we the victor rose. Now we struggle to survive, Now the hornets not the hive, Once unconquered, now we fall Yielding to another Saul, All our honour, love and praise Loom behind us in a haze. Moclcery besets us now, Unwilling we must slowly bow, Now we realize our act, Now we ponder the true fact, That in our time of strength and power God in us had died. JENNIFER COX - Form IV .THE PRICE of FREEDOM ana' MANHOOD I sat and watched Old Joe gently wheez- ing and staring intently into the fireg his sharp eyes piercing the eerie shapes formed by the jaunty crimson flames. He appeared to be enchanted by the crackling sparks and spiralling smoke reflected in his eyes, and yet I knew he was reliving the past. He would inevitably lapse into a favourite tale. The moon had risen, sending her silvery beams darting amongst forbidden recesses re- vealing night's mystery. Glittering stars care- fully sprinkled, illuminated the heavens and so we two sat silhouetted -against the sky. The fire by this time was reduced to glow- ing embers and I rose to add more wood. Glancing about, I noticed the lush meadow in which we had camped and the forbidding forests closing -us in. Close lby, our horses grazed and this seemed to jerk Joe's thoughts back to the present. His bronze face was weather-beaten and his dark eyes glowed with excitement. At first he spoke slowly and softly, but as the story progressed he be-came more involved and his emotions showed through the working of his face. He told of his early boyhood and life of which I knew something and of a magni- ficent mare which had been bred among their ponies and had soon after become a lucky symbol of -his tribe. When a lad, Joe had guarded her with his life. He would set her free in the hot summer evenings when they were camped lin the foothills and catch her in the dawn. She was an albino with large pink eyes, alert ears and a small head proudly placed on powerful shoulders. In the moonlight her lustrous coat shone. Her gleaming muscles rippled beneath her coat as she galloped across the foothills, her creamy tail and mane flowing out benind her. She was wild with freedom. Each year as winter set in he had had to leave 'her and depart for his winter lodgings in the mountains. When spring arived he would be racing down to the foothills to seek the mare. One beautiful spring when he was sixteen he felt nervous. The journey down was breathtaking. On each side of the path the underbrusih was thick. Large trees, with their leafy limbs lifted high, overlapped one another, forming arches. A frightened deer occasionally bounded across their trail. The children picked dainty flowers and wove them into scened garlands. The delicate vio- lets and buttercups were abundant and their fragrance perfumed the mountain air. It was hard work traversing the mountains with their belongings but there was always the anticipation of a soft bed of pine needles or lush grass beneath t-he stars. I looked into Joe's face and blinked away a tear as I saw this face - sad and yet full of eagerness and longing. He continued after a slight pause. He spoke of the mimicking loon and the hooting owl, the gurgling stream and the splash of rainbow trout. On the last stretch, the wood petered out into a rugged trail of jagged rocks and sharp turns. Sheer cliffs fell to the left and the menacing mountain rose to the right. Aval- anches occurred occasionally and when a care- less foot knocked a loose pebble it would be whirled over the edge in a swirl of dust to clatter to its doom. For one second one would remain rigid with fear and then pro- ceed cautiously. It was a rough beauty and soon the hardy tribe would wind its way down the treacherous slopes into the foot- hills to their summer camp. After helping his family to settle in and completing his tasks, he was roaming the valley looking for his mare. She was always there in the ravine awaiting his return. This year, she stood defiantly beneath the old knoted tree, her head lifted proudly. She whinnied softly as Joe patted her rump and she nuzzled at his shirt from which he pro- duced a tasty tidbit. She chewed it hungrily while Joe stood back to gaze at her. She was in the prime of her life. Her muscles twitched and she pawed the earth. Then she was off like the wind. Joe returned often, sometimes to ride her as she no longer ran with the Indian ponies but had joined a wild pack of renegades. Mid-summer, Joe arived with two lumps of sugar for Misty. The ravine was empty and there was no answering whinny to his whistle. He had ridden his own pinto but he was a sluggish pony. Just as he emerged from the ravine he caught sight of Misty racing across the valley towards the mountain trail and in hot pursuit were five riders shoot- ing and terrifying her. On impulse he urged his pinto into a gallop after Misty. He knew vaguely that he must save her but he would never catch her or her pursuers. Misty had begun to climb the treacherous mountain trail closely followed by the riders intent upon their prey. Joe swept past on his fat pony. In 'his eyes I could read the hatred and disgust he held for the five -chasers. I shrank from his stare and became engrossed once more. Misty's hooves scarcely touched the sur- faceg she was a winged Pegasus. Round each bend she swerved haphazardly, but panic and fear had overcome her and freedom was all she desired. Joe rounded a bend and stopped in time to see Misty swerve and leap into the sky's bosom, arched gracefully, mane and tail flowing out majestically and then she swooped earthward over the c1iff's to free- dom beyond. Joe sat shocked and then turned his pony home down the darkening trail. Five white men passed a sulky Indian lad on the trail. They stared at one another for a minute and they understood. The leader mumbled some- thing under his breath and they passed on. Joe rode home that evening, a boy no longer, but a man who must face the world. He stopped, and his eyes full of hatred looked into mine, and then I understood. It was my grandfather, now a man withered and bent with suffering, who had committed the dreadful deed of which he never spoke. And just as Joe saw my comprehension, I saw his smile of forgiveness. ELAINE WADHAM - Form V It took the world a decade, At least ten years to mould Her steadfast soul and body In pain and sorrow and joy. It took the world one day, An hour of despair to place The forlorn and weary look Upon the young girlis face. E. L. after E. J. Pratt DITTE LANSKY - Form VI Tlli1'fC1'n THE HORSELESS CARRIAGE The sun beat down on the dusty gravel road which led through town. The crowd which 'had gathered was hot and unco-mfort- able although a fresh, perfumed breeze cool- ed the air. The swish of long skirts along the wooden sidewalks was scarcely audible above the laughter of children. It was early twen- tieth century, and horse-drawn carriages were tethered at every availalble post. After all, this was the first time in years that there had been a competition, ia race, in the quaint, sleepy Tethertown. Everyone was excited. 'I'll wager two dollars on the horse and carriage, offered an elderly shopkeeper. 'tl shall double that amount for the car, replied his fat, domineering wife, giving her husband a sharp poke in the ribs with her elbow. In front of the post office at the end of town stood a chestnut mare, harnessed to a light buggy. A plump, elderly man, in a t-op hat and dark suit, stroked the horse's n e c k fondly and chuckled. Give in, son, the gentleman laughed. You don't have a chance! Mr. Lyndale's son stood nearby, polishing the already brilliant chrome bumper on his car. It was la small car with large, thin wheels and high, uncomfortable seats. She's my pride and joy, Harold Lyndale answered, patting the windshield. Her for- mer owner assured me that she would never fail me. Why, he was almost in tears when I took her away. Again Mr. Lyndale chuckled. Will the contestants please get ready, an announcer bellowed from his seat neanby. A fair young lady picked up her skirts and trotted lightly to her husband. She wore a beautiful pastel pink dress land a large, wide- brimmed hat decked with frills and flowers. Are you sure this monster isn't danger- ous, Harold? she asked, drawing in her flowing skirt. Harold kissed his wife gently on the cheek. On your mark! called the announcer. Harold ran his fingers through his dark, wavy hair and adjusted his large, comical goggles. Get set! LSGOYY7 He turned and gave his car a firm, swift crank. A blast of stale air exploded from the back of the car. His father's horse, startled, 1 0'l!l'fCCIl reared and -bolted. The carriage sped into the distance with only Mr. Lyndale's coat-tails visible, flapping in the cloud of dust. Harold cranked anxiously. What a time for his car to fail him! He could feel the mocking eyes of the crowd 'watching him. He glanced around. He saw bright, shiny faces peering at him from long lines along the street, and grinning at him from above. I'l1 catch up! he shouted shaking his fist at the cloud of dust rolling in front of him. He cranked again. His grease-smeared fingers slipped over the handle, and left a large black smear across the gleaming bum- per. Would he ever forget the day he had bought his car home? He had driven up the road in triumph. Dogs had barked, and chil- dren had run along-side. His wife had dashed out to meet him, ther face beaming. Then came the shattering blow! Having sighted the tin can as he called it, his father had burst into gales of laughter, and had had to be helped -into the house. Then, to make matters worse, he had challenged his son to a race with his horse and carriage. If the car won, there fwas a hands-ome money prize. If it lost, as he now felt it was sure to, the car was to be sold. Harold cranked again,.. as. .ifxhe fwere knocking down his opponent. A loud blast, and the car began to chug, and shook vio- lently. He hopped over the door, and smoothed his fuzzy moustache -with this black, grimy hands. Then he pushed the gear stick forward. What a jolt he got! He lurched down the road. On either side, the crowd snickered softly, and ladies hid their smiling faces be- hind their lacy lparasols. The simple, white- washed fences passed in endless lines beside him. Even the small, two-storey 'houses seemed to lean forward in wonder. He pas- sed all the tiny shops which cluttered Main Street, and came to open country with the dazzling yellow mustard fields. He must have travelled about two miles before he saw the finish line. There stood his father gloating, grinning triumphantly, and giving his winning mare a carrot. lt was such a nice car, Harold sighed, feeling very abashed as he putted slowly across the line. Bouquets of flowers fluttered about him. From playful children's hands shot brightly coloured streamers. All around him birds sang and insects hummed. Harold felt gay, although the streamers were not for him, but his father. He stepped out of the car, and leaned against the door, thinking: 'His large, roomy trousers flapped lazily in the wind. His wife ran up to him, but taking a closer look, backed away. Before her stood her husband, looking like a chimney sweep. His face was as white as death from the dust except for several greasy streaks across his forehead and down his cheeks. He had re- moved his goggles and his eyes stood out clean and bold. His dry, cracked lips turned up in a sheepish grin. He and his wife began to laugh. That monster may not win races, giggled his wife. but it obviously has a great effect on you. She's my pride and joy, Harold answered. JANE EVANS - Form III A Spring Wallr As I walked through the woods one day, I heard the sounds of springg The rustling leaves, echoing through the trees The chanting of the brook in time with the breeze. Cardinals in the treetops sweetly singing The bluejay's bold call makes the valleys ring. As I walked through the woods one day I felt the joys of spring. As I walked through the woods one day I saw the sights of spring, Wise old owl peering from his tree, Toads staring idly, looking at meg Swiftly scampering deer coming from the marsh, Busy beavers building dams of bark so harsh. As I walked through the woods one day I felt the joys of spring. ANNE GRANT - Form I Noises Have you ever gone to a matinee When all the audience is girls and boys, And listened throughout the entire play To the various echoes of their noise? There's a snap and pop With no sign of stop. Thereis crackle and crunch And an occasional munch. They shift and prattle While wrappers they rattle. They cheer, then hiss, But not a play do they miss. JANIS MCKEAG - Form III BRUNCHING OUT On our Christmas holidays my family went to Florida. While there we met a family from New Jersey who had two girls about my age, Nancy and Jane. We three became very good friends. On New Year's Day the two families went out for brunch It was served in the Satel- lite Room of the Satellite Hotel. There were two eating areas, a lower lounge and an upper lounge just above the lower level, so that one could look down on the people below. Brunch was served in buffet style. There were many kinds of food, and I did not know what to -have. I decided on an old standaby, scrambled eggs and bacon. Nancy, Jane, and I ate in the upper lounge. Before eating, we talked about the setting of -the room, the place mats, and watched the stars above in the ceiling. The whole room was designed to give the atmosphere of being in a satellite in space. By the time we had finished chatting, 'my brunch had grown cold. 'Ilhe bacon was very tough and with a blunt knife, I found it difficult to cut. Finally I resorted to pulling it with my knife and fork. When it broke, my hand with the knife flew away from me taking with it my eggs. Th-ey went over the edge of the table and down to the next lounge. To my horror the eggs not only went down onto the plate of the lady below, but onto lher that and down her dress! My face, which was alreday beet red, turned redder when she turned around and gave me a withering stare. She then said, Harry, we will have to move! They im- mediately gathered up their food, water, cof- fee and utensils and moved across the room. Now, I never eat scrambled eggs and ba- con unless I am at home. JANIS MCKEAG - Form III THE ECUMENICAI GUINEA PIG The Sunday morning dawned bright and clear. At ten-thirty a group of rosy-checked young ladies neatly dressed in warm coats walked primly towards St. Anne's Church. Their feet crunched on the snow-covered walk as they trod along in the crisp morning air. Unknown to the senior girls in charge, curled in the depths of a winter coat pocket, nestled a black and white guinea pig. He had been bought by one of the girls as a pet for herself and her roommates. We had brought him to church, hoping that his religious knowledge would be improved. We settled down happily to listen to the service and fervently hoped it would help our Fiflrru rodent friend. We deeply feared he was of heathen inclination. Suddenly there was a crash as one of the offering plates fell dur- ing the collection, and we turned around to see the cause of the commotion. But, Tom's reactions were different. Startl-ed by the noise, he wormed his way out of Carol's pocket. He dropped to the floor with a thud. Free he ran, squeaking frantically down the aisle. Too late, Carol realized what had hap- pened. Dismayed and helpless, she looked at us. What could she do? A sharp tap on her shoulder made her turn around to meet the furious eyes of the prefect -in charge. What on earth do you think you're do- ing? she hissed. Carol was speechless. She was saved an ex- planation by the girl's curt command. '!Catch the horrid beast, for heaven's sake! We watched helplessly as poor Carol scrambled down the aisle after Tom. She put the poor animal into her pocket and sat down. The rest of the service was endured in great discomfort. We knew that serious trouble awaited us. The group of girls that returned to the school was a very downcast one. Gone was our enjoyment of the crisp air and clear sunshine. We were all silent and gloomy. Carol was sent up to the Prefects' sitting- room. We sat, awaiting her return. When we heard her running down the stairs, we looked at one another, fingers crossed. Carol's words erased the gloom in the room as the first rays of sunshine clear away the mist after a storm. We can keep himll' We gaped at her unbelievingly. The sharp ring of the dinner-bell cut the silence. Strage to have a common thing like a dinner- bell end such an exciting morning! JENNIFER Weiss - Form II Death Your six white stallions and rich black coach Glide between the gates of fate, Silently stealing through the dark of night Kidnapping weary souls and encouraging hate. Towards the gates they wing their way Judgment passed, they turn each face To the eternal kingdom where love reigns Or to the fiery domain of hell's race. We fear their breath so cola and deadly Which impregnates the very air, For their presence is ever near us Reminding us of our short life, though fair. O Death, linger not upon my threshold! Get thee hence - Thou art too bold. ELAINE WADHAM s r M Y LORD BISHOP On Sunday afternoon, Father appeared with a very important announcement. Children, he said, we are going to have the privilege of entertaining a very dis- tinguished guest in our home on Friday. His nam-e is Bishop Reindorp who is the bishop of Guildford in Surrey, England. Furthermore, he has demanded that all the children be present! Shivers came through us as we listened to these last words. The lbishop had com- manded us to fbe present! As the week passed, all I could think of was our guest who was comfing on Friday for dinner. What was he like? Why had he com- manded us to be present? Perhaps he was comparing Canadian clergy's children to those of English clergy! In my mind, I built up a picture of the bishop. He was a towering figure of over six feet. His hair was a mottled white. His eyes were a cold, steel grey. When they met mine, they seemed to pierce right through me, and I knew that he could tell everything that was going on in my mind. Like many English- men, he carried a cane which he tapped continuously. His voice frightened me. It was hard and cold, and it echoed throughout the house. , As , the Q3 great, . day -grew-5 nearerfrthe figure haunted me. ' Finally the dreaded moment came, when Bishop Reindorp arrived. Mother and Father greeted him warmly and ibrought him in to meet the trembling triibe. When I saw the bishop, I was dumb- founded. All I could do was stare open- mouthed. Is there something the matter, my dear? came the rich voice of the bishop. The family laughed, and I blushed, rea- lizing how ridiculous I must have looked. I stuttered a reply. UN-No, sir, I-I am fine, thank you. When looking at the kind Visage of the bishop which bore a friendly, warm smile and clear, understanding eyes, I had to laugh to myself as I remembered the severe face and steel, grey eyes of my bishop. It was plain to see that my lord adored children, as he sat telilng stories and jokes, his eyes sparkling. Father informed us later that this was the reason for our ordered presence. As the most wonderful evening of my life drew to a close, I breathed a sigh of relief as I thought of how miserable it would have been if Umy bishop had come to visit. JANE HARRISON - Form II Someday I 'll Smile They said he had died, But I was with him only yesterday, Surely they had lied! I remember eyes, Blue as a summer sky, twinkling, gay. Our tender good-byes. He'd write me he said As he kissed me farewell, but now I must Write of him.' he's dead. The words mock me now, But in some future hour, Iill think of fun, The trip in the scow, The day at the lake, Or other adventures of the summer And smile for his sake. J UDITH DOWLER - Form VI THE HA UNTING MEI ODY One warm, summer evening an old lady strolled through the park enjoying the quiet. Violet, which was the 1ady's name, loitered on the paths to enjoy the sweet smell of the blooming roses. The crickets chirped con- ten-tedly in the nearby pond. The park was peaceful that evening. She walked on until she came to the fork of the path. Between the -two paths was an old signpost. To the left the sign read, The Fairies' Garden. The other sign pointing to the right path read, t'The Fairies' Palace of Music. Ah, the old bandstand brings back so many memories, she said as she reached it. When I was young the rustic pillars were decked with flowers, she said to herself. The circle held the band and some dancers too, s-he stated. Dreamy waltzes held the people spellbound. Oh those were the days! she exclaimed. Now thewpaint is peeled, the floor too weak to dance on, and the sides broken and ugly. Sadly she whispered, Those days are over! Only sweet memories are left to replace the music and merrimentf' Suddenly the clear sad notes of a violin gently disturbed the silence. Violet, thinking that she imagined it, began to dance to the music with an imaginary partner. Suddenly she stopped. The music was real! Who played the violin? she asked herself. Silence, then a rustle of leaves, and Violet saw an old man hurrying away. She did not see his face as he fled. Puzzled, she walked home, promis- ing to return the next evening. The next evening Violet returned to the old bandstand to find out who had played the violin for her. Did I hear footsteps? she asked herself. Bent double, she concealed herself behind a bush near the bandstand. Strains of beautiful violin music filled the warm air. Now the tune changed from a waltz to 'Beautiful Dreamer. Freddy, she cried, Come to me! Vio1et! he cried. t'Oh, that's our favourite tunej' she said. t'Yes, the tune played at our engagement, he replied, and at our party afterwards here. Freddy, you went to sea and were said to have been shipwrecked near Africa, she cried. Dear, I am back now, for you, for ever. They were married in a month. Now when- ever they have company, Freddy plays the Beautiful Dreamer, the haunting melody. DONNA ROGERS - Form I A BIRD BEGAN T0 SING Mr. Hodges looked at his watch again. It was seven forty-five. The rain poured down, forming small pools of water at his feet. That morning was dreary and Mr. Hodges felt de- pressed. Even the air seemed drab, for a thin, grey fog had settled. Tall, bleak skele- tons of trees towered above the bench where he was sitting. A sigh escaped him. He was tired and the last thing he wanted to do was to go to work. Today he would go to work, tomorrow he would go to work, and for ages after that he would go. His eyes brightened for an instant. Today he would wait for Miss Valour and walk with her to the office. He was sure she liked him, for she smiled at him every morning when he came into the office. Sitting up a little, he tightened his hold on the umbrella. His face darkened as he thought, But what if she doesn't like me? For no one except Miss Valour ever smiled at him. He remembered the time he had heard two other employees talking about him. Mr. Hodges is an awfully quiet chap, re- marked one. It is a wonder he doesn't fade away, laughingly remarked the other. He grew sullen as he remembered. Frown- ing he mused to himself, I do hope she likes me? Just then he heard the sound of approaching footsteps. Why, hello Mr. Hodges, a friendly voice said. He looked up, smiling, and said, Hello, are you going to the office? Now where would I be going on a day like this? There is hardly even a bird to be found out in this weather, she said laugh- ingly. Srrenlr Do you mind if I join you? he asked earnestly. Of course not, she replied. They walked together for a while, each thinking about different things. I certainly hope Mr. Grenville is in a good mood today, said Miss Valour after a long silence. Mr. Grenville was the manager. He was a large man and loved to talk, especi- ally about himself. He loved to tell others how he had worked himself to the top. Suddenly a car came to an abrupt halt by the curb, spraying Mr. Hodges with water. Would you like a lift? Mr. Grenville asked Miss Valour, coldly ignoring Mr. Hodges. No, thank you, Mr. Grenville, replied Miss Valour pleasantly. Mr. Grenville's face flushed with irritation and his manner became menacing. Are you sure? he said, and opened the car door. Mr. Hodge's face became pale as he waited. Yes, thanksg we prefer to walk, he heard Miss Valour say. Mr. Grenville eyed the two, shut the car door noisily, and drove off. Mr. Hodges though to himself, She did not want a ride, even though it is raining! He looked at her and they both smiled. At that moment it seemed that the rain stopped, the fog lifted, and a bird began to sing. ANN TOWNSEND - Form III Spiders These are my friends, these spindly spiders, Eminent enemies, excellent hiders, Is it they who of pests my bedroom do rid. These silent stalkers, I watched where they hid. In wispy webs where ants are threshing, And floundering flies are caught in the meshing, This fly-catching friend is feeding the birds. In cocoons of silk his dinner he girds. With treacherous teeth sunk deep into flesh, The deep scarlet blood on their limbs is fresh. They waste not their time when waiting to kill, I watched every scene from my window sill. In cobwebby corners where hide the small fishers I seem to be their only well-wishers, For if mopping maids walk into a thread Of unseen stickiness-Swish! The spider is dead. ELIZABETH HAWORTH - Form I Eighteen YOUNG HUNTER Well, Peter, would you like to go? his father inquired absently. Do you really mean it, Dad? Peter cried eagerly. I certainly do, his father said. I think fourteen is old enough to go on a hunting trip. With the discussion ended, Mr. Martin settled -back into his deep, comfortable chair. The curls of smoke from his pipe almost looked as if they were being inhaled 'by the mounted grizzly bear head above A moose and several deer heads with magnifi- cent, antlers were hanging on either side of the huge trophy. A skilled taxidermi-st had prepared them, and their life-like counten- ances gave the room an eerie atmosphere. Peter, returning to his book, On Safari, was lying stretched out on the rug -in front of the fire. The flames crackled merrily on the hearth, casting a red glow on his intent face. His attention was drawn to the swirling mass of flame, and as he gazed into it, his imagina- tion took possession of him. He saw himself on the African veldt, aiming a large elephant gun at a crouching tiger. His finger squeezed the trigger, the huge beast dropped, and he was lifted on to the shoulders of a grateful tribe. In the next few days Peter's brain teemed with plans for the trip. After much deliber- ation he chose a place to hang the head of the deer he was going to shoot. He was deter- mined to have as many trophies to be proud of as his father had. A deer or two th-is season . . . perhaps a grizzly when he became more experienced. That would certainly give him a good start. Already he could visualize the plaques mounted on the wall! To his sur- prise and delight, his father presented him with a gun of his own. Faithfully every morn- ing he went out to practise. How absolutely mortifying it would be if he missed the game on the trip! Peter was sure his father would never again take him along if he made a blunder like that! The day of the trip dawned clear and cold in the November sky. The trees, bared of their leaves, stood stark and grey. Peter and his father, loaded with equipment, set off into the woods. The snapping of twigs and crunch- ing of leaves broke the stilhiess of the forest as they trudged on their way. Then, approach- ing deer country, they became more cautious, and spoke only in whispers. p One morning, while they were stalking the woods searching for deer tracks, Mr. Martin stopped suddenly, motioning to Peter to do the same. Feeding on some moss was a magni- ficent stag, not more than ten yards away. As yet he was unaware of their presence. Peter gasped in sheer admiration of the proud ani- mal. The stag's body was lithe and muscular, with its antlers crowning its head majestic- ally. At his father's signal to shoot, Peter cocked the gun and aimed it. Suddenly the animal looked up, with a frightened, puzzled expression in its gentle eyes. For a moment Peter hesitated, but he had lived this moment so often in his dreams that the next step was automatic. The shot rang and echoed in the deserted woods. The stag dropped to the ground. Staring blank-ly at the dead animal, Peter stood, .paralyzed. He was completely void of emotion or sense. Hfis father rushed over to examine the kill. Good shot, son! Got him right through the heart. I'm proud of you! he said. How- ever, his father'-s praise only made him realize more acutely the horror of what he had done. It was his fault that that magnifi- cent, innocent creature lay motionless on the ground. With one thoughtless impulse he had stilled its heart for ever. Lucifer! What are you staring at? de- manded his father impatiently. Don't tell me you're squeamiish at the sight of a little blood! Unaible to bear the presence of the thing he had destroyed, Peter dropped the gun and ran. SHELLEY MITCHELL -- Form III My Magic Vase Last night, when all had gone to sleep, I to my magic vase did creep, Softly, silently, And there behold it all aglow, Then gently rubbed it to and fro. Genie appeared right at my side, Where shall we go tonight? she cried, Pausing pensively. Without a word my thoughts she knew And back to the days of yore we flew. There were Robin Hood and his men, Chasing the sheriff through the glen, Riding rapidly. With utter glee I joined the band, Feeling the glory of the land. All too quickly the time had fled, And there I was back in my bed, Dreaming drowsily Of my wonderful nightly flights, Stirring adventures, dazzling sights.

NEILSON BY THE SEASIDE I-t was before dawn on a Saturday morn- ing. The sea was stretched out for miles. The calm blue water was covered by a thin mist. The first rays of sunlight were beginning to show over the treetops. There was not a single person in sight. The beach was quiet and still. As the sun cilmbed higher, the sand was struck by the warm, glowing sunbeams. There was not a cloud in the sky as far as the eye could see. A lone sea-gull glided over the waters, occasionally swooping down. Then the tide began to come in. The waves came up farther and farther onto the shore. The first few people appeared on the beach. Coloured umlbrellas went up. The waves crashed against the shore. The chil- dren ran out to greet them and were hurled back onto the sand. Farther out, baskets were opened, towels spread out, and surf- -boards propped up in the sand. Overhead, the gulls could be heard screeching. The chatter of voices from along the beach, and shrieks of delight from children splashing and play- ing in the water were heard. Sails were rig- ged up and sand castles were built. There was excitement in every direction. Everyone was in the best of spirits. SARAH EVERETT - Form II .Yixzetrr u IMPRESSIONS of CHRISTMAS at SCHOOL by a new boarder The Christmas spirit arrives early at Bal- moral Hall. As soon as examinations are over early in December an air of excitement seems to set in. A flurry of decorations, travel ar- rangements, carol service practices, all seem to be part of this Christmas spirit. Commit- tees decorate the gymnasium with trees and the library with nativity pictures and Christ- mas books. Even the ha-lls and corridors seem to catch the Spirit of the Season. Wrapping paper, gifts, surprise and whis- pered secrets all become a part of the res- idence. The high moment was our boarders' Christmas dinner. In our most festive dresses we greeted the staff and some of the senior day girls in Aikins House. Escorted by senior girls and followed closely by Junior escorts the staff were taken to the dining-room. A festive air was created by candlelight, party-crackers, special gum- drop trees and the lighted Christmas trees. It was a big family Christmas dinner with turkey and all the trimmings, end-of-term excitement and happy feelings of soon going home. Dinner was followed by the exchang- ing of gifts from the decorated tree in the common room. Gifts - Christmas cake -- punch and lots of singing concluded the happy event. Even though the choir practised regularly throughout the term, there were many extra concentrated movements of hard work as the time for the Christmas Carol Service approached. Readers, Actors and choristers were all busy in both Junior and Senior School preparing for this Service. But it is all so worth while, so special and such a good end to my first term. That evening we left by bus, plane, train and car for our res-peotive homes taking with us happy mem- ories of Christmas at Balmoral Hall. JANET JACKSON - Form VI FORM III VISITS A DAY NURSERY In the spring term Form III visited the Broadway Day Nursery. This nursery, which is partly su-pported by the United Way, is where many mothers lbring their children to ibe looked after while they work. Here we saw the children at play, at lunch, during their rest, and for their story. Play is very important to children, because it is their work. It teaches them to get along with each other, helps them to learn, and gives them a chance to show their feelings. At the nursery the toys were chosen to give Twenty the children pleasure, and to develop them physically, mentally, and socially. The chil- dren we saw were happily playing together, and with the aid of the staff they were able to draw full -benefits from the toys and their group -play. Before lunch, the children spent a quiet halfJhour listening to stories. The stories were simfple, but they all taught the children something. On the whole, the children were quiet and attentive, ibut a few showed distraction from our presence. The teacher read in a quiet, expressive voice, showing the children the pictures, and allowing them to make comments on the story. We were fortunate enough to see the chil- dren at their lunch. They were divided into small groups, each group sitting at a table with a teacher to serve and help. Here the children are taught good manners, and by a gradual process they learn to like each meal they are served. After lunch each child was given a vita-min. This nursery is concerned for t-he care of each individual child, not only t-he group. The staff were firm, kind, and loving, giving the children a feeling of 'being wanted, and of security. Many problem lchlildren have been sent to this nursery, and we were told of the marvellous changes the staff have been amble to make in them. Those who were once wild and rebellious are becoming calm and loving and those who were shy and withdrawn now make friends. This was an excelleont opportunity for Form III to learn something quite new. SPECIAI PERFORMANCE On Tuesday, February 8th, Forms IV and V attended a special performance by four members of the Manitoba Theatre Centre at St. Maryis Academy. The programme was opened and closed with selections from, As You Lit It . Christ Climbed Down by Law- rence Terlenghetti was a satire on how very commercialized Christmas has become. The opening scene from Ionesco's The Bald Soprano was an ironical interpretation of the problem of communication between an English couple. The Congo by Rachel Lindsay was presented in an oral dance and was followed by Robert Frost's, Death of the Hired Man . The selection of Scene Il Act II of King Henry Il on the clever courtship of Catherine by Henry and his adroit playing on words, provided much amusement for the audience. We look forward to a similar op- portunity next year. CUPID CAPERS Cuipids, heart and candles transformed the dining-room of Dalton House into a place of stately elegance, an appropriate setting for the Cupid Capers banquet. Following dinner, coffee was served in Aikins House. Everyone then proceeded to the gymna- sium where a cascade of red and white streamers and hearts and cupids greeted the dancers. Reign-ing over the festivities was a golden cupid, who did h-is work throughout the eve- ning, as his arrows appeared to hit many a target. CATHERINE VIVIAN DANCE PREPARA TIONS The great success of Cupid Capers was due to the careful planning and thoughful preparation on the part of a few girls. Mary Bruce, the Convener, co-ordinated the work involved in the making of wall decorationsg she also m-ade artistic use of Sheryl Noonan's Cupid. Cathi Bell displayed great ingenuity in decorating t-he diining-roomg as Miss Mur- rell-Wright said, It has never been so beau- tiful . All those who contributed so tangibly to the success of Cupid Capers are to be congratulated. SUSAN CRAMP INI TIA T ION Initiation 1965 was a very eventful night for old girls as well as new. The prepara- tions for Spectaculum Romanum' included activities wfhich varied from furniture-moving to popcorn popping, but once begun, not even a flood of mustard could stop the fun. The evening of entertainment began in the Colosseum with many skill-testing games, ranging from the shot-put to a chariot race. Roman table manners were demonstrated and all the latest medical techniquesiwere ex- hibited in Surgery-a-go-go. After the games were completed, it was unanimously decided to accept the captives as Roman citizens. We then moved up the Appian Way to the United Way in the Forum. Stalls run by each House tempted guests to participate in various money-making but interest-ing activ- ities. Returning to the Colosseum, the prae fectae presented a fairly tale called Album Nix which thoroughly delighted everyone. Any similarity to any other fairy tale is purely accidental! Who could ever forget the cackle of the witch, and the efforts of Latin oration. A hearty sing-song brought to a close a very worthwhile evening in which we raised 5169.58 for the United Way, enlisted some new citizens, and enjoyed a lovely evening back in Roman days.

Rogers THE SENIOR LIBRARY This year the Senior Library committee is pleased to report the accession of many new books. Monthly book donations from the friends of the library were among our most prized new editions. Perhaps the most widely read has been The Albert Schweitzer Al- bum. . Beside these the library ordered and processed 250 books. Some of the title-s are: The Art of India - Goetz Of Hu-man Bondage - Somerset Maughan Sean O'Casey -- Krause The Comfortable Pew - Berton The Fossil Book - Fenton Tennis - Sports Illustrated Complete Poems of Robert Frost Dictionary of the Bible by Hastings Venture to the Interior - Van der Post My Darling Clementine - Fishman . Circulation has been steady and wide use made of the reference books. As usual some students have had overdue books but with the fines collected by Rosemary Condo we have bought a shelf-label-marker. After school on Friday the library has been a meeting place for many committees. Under the guid- nace of Frances Tanner everyone had some 'I'u'1'i1ly fll'-O Circulation ......................... ....... A . Hunt Treasurer .............................. ..... R .

Interesting displays of 'books on musi-c, science, archi- tecture, art and careers, hav-e shown both students and staff the wide range of subject matter on our library shelves and in the picture file. A special thanks to Garrity Smith for her posters. A Library Quiz attracted many contes- tants and stimulated wide research, with Nina Mae Sutherland, Ballatefr and Jean Riley, Craig Gowan winning the honours for the Quiz and Marlene Fandrick, Braemar and Deanna Silvester, Glen Gairn placing first in their section for the title-s-tory. My thanks go to the Library Committee who assisted with the corrections. Perhaps the most useful change has been the completion of the subject file begun last summer by Jane Moody, one of our old girls. Subject, title and author cards are now inter- filed. This year has certainly been an exciting one for me, acknowledging new books, seeing them processed, displayed and finally in cir- culation. We have a library to be proud of and a library committee is a wonderful way to serve our school. TEDDIE NAN CE - Librarian THE JUNIOR IIBRARY Book displays have helped to maintain an interest in reading in the Junior School. Throughout the year, in addition to displays of books on music, composers and hobbies, we have correlated class Georgraphy studies with displays of books on France, Egypt and Scandinavia. At the time of the parents' meeting in March a special d-isplay was created to il- lustrate Mrs. Berry's report on Early Pat- terns in Reading which was given in the Junior Library. At this time the Junior Lib- rary Committee took a new look at Stepping Stones , our guide book in this area, and displayed from our shelves the best in chil- dren's classics. Successful has been the use of small class- room libraries in the junior grades. The easy- to-read books were re-organized according to reading level and subject matter and groups of books were -taken to the classroom for rea-dy distribution, an easy return and con- stand circulation. Approximately 100 new books were pro- cessed during the year and after display, found their way to the right shelf. A library committee from the senior school assisted each day with returning books to the shelves and setting up the displays. SALLY SPOHN - For the Student Committee MESSAGE FROM AFRICA On September 24, Mr. Kiisosankole from Uganda was a guest speaker at Morning Prayers. Mr. Kisonankole told the following story which could be applied to anyone of any age. A naturalist visited a man who raised chickens in the jungle of Africa. Among the chickens was an eagle which had been tamed, and which the ow-ner was sure would never fly away. The naturalist disagreed. When the eagle was placed on a fence, it fell back amongst the chickens, as it did when it was later set free from a tree. However, the naturalist was sure that if the eagle were set free in its natural habitat, it would fly away. He therefore took it to a mountain top and again released it. This time the eagle soared high above the earth. In this story we see the message that a Christian should always be worthy of his special endowments, not matter where he may be. DITTE LANSKY THE DAY IN THE COUNTRY The evening of Saturday, September 8th, brought to a close a third wonderful Day in the Country, held this year, thanks to Mr. and Mrs. G. T. Richardson, at Kelburn Stock Farms. What a day! Thanks to the timeless planning and efforts of the mothers, and the enthusiasm of the girls and the countless visi- tors who came to support us, it was again a tremendous success. Even the weather-man co-operated and after rain had fallen steadily all week until Friday night, Saturday burst forth in bright sunshine. From the bus and from cars, the girls hur- ried to find their varied jobs and were ready as the first visitors arrived. Throughout the day children of all ages competed in games of skill, enjoyed hay rides, fed animals, and in between guarded the riverbank, cleaned up the grounds, helped with pony rides or worked in the many booths. The guests were equally busy. A steady stream visited the home-baking tent in search of home-baked cakes and pies, or were seen laden with farm-freslh squash, eggs, cauli- flowers or pickling needs as they moved away from the vegetable stand. Popular again were the novel items of the handicraft booth, with excting gifts for Christmas, interesting decor- ations and all kinds of clothes for Barbie-dolls. The busy booths were surpassed only by the business at the hot dog and hamburger stands where barbecued foods were ravenously en- joyed, as well as candy, popcorn and cold drinks. Perhaps the highlight of the day's activi- ties for us was the horse racing, for which we had sold numerous tickets. To Braemar's de- light the house with the Blue banner proved to be the champion. The end of the day saw first the visitors disappear and then the cars moving away from the parking lot with tired children hap- pily bedecked with ribbons, indicating their victories, weary but happy mothers with their home-baking, vegetables and handicrafts and the senior students eagerly anticipating the results of another successful Day in the Country.

They were anxious to see the castle because of the knights in shining armour, lances, swords, battleaxes and shields. When they went on Wednesday -they found out that they had to go around with a guide. 'Ilhey followed a party up and down long wide hallways. They were so interested in the orna- ments hanging from the walls that they didn't notice the party was far ahead. Soon Rex turned and asked where the party was. I don't know, replied William. The two boys ran up and down the wide halls calling for the party, but it did no good. It seemed difficult because the voices echoed from every side. Then they saw a door and thought the party had gone through it but it wa-s locked. Rex said, Maybe there is a secret button to get in? So the -boys set to work. They pressed the picture nearby but nothing happened. Then Rex tripped and fell on the toe of a statue and the heavy door opened. They walked in and saw many lovely paintings and rows and rows of books so they thought it was a place for storing pre- cious thing. Then BANG and as the door closed a painting fell. They saw a small door behind the painting. When they opened it, they saw a tunnel and so they climbed through. Finally they saw a speck of light and knew they were coming to the end of the tunnel. Finally when they got out of the tunnel they saw the party and called to them and the guide helped them down. Later they found out that the room they had discovered was a place to store precious books and pantings of an old King and Queen. Men had been searching for this place for hundreds of years and Rex and William had found it.

PAT DABRUS - Grade VI JUNIOR CAROL SER VICE This year, under the direction of Miss Martin, the junior School presented their own Carol Service. It was a refreshing and orig- inal prodiuction. Each class participated in its own portion of the Service, with Choral readings and Carols which everyone sang. Mary, Joseph, the angels and the slhefpfherds were portrayed very naturally. We hope the junior School will have its own Carol Service another year for it not only gave them great plea-sure to display their own talents but provided an opportun- ity for the parents to appreciate their efforts. CLEANING THE ATTIC It was Saturday, a beautiful day and I had to clean out the attic. I hated it! First of all I opened a big chest full of old books. I read a few of them and then stacked them in neat piles in the chest. The second chest I opened was full of old snaps. Some of them were of my mother when she was young. The third and last chest was full of dresses that were too small for Mother. Suddenly, I had a good idea! I got dressed in a plain dress and a blond wig. Then I went downstairs where Mother was working. I went outsid-e and rang the bell. Mother came to answer the door. Oh, hello. I'm your new neighbour, I said in a high-pitched voi-ce. I heard there was a new neighbour, said Mother, Would you like to stay for coffee? That would be very nice, I said. I really disliked coffee. I sat down and Mother brought the coffee . . . I drank a little bit, then spluttered and coughed. What's the matter? Mother asked. Just then the wig felt uncomfortable. By accident it slipped off. Barbara! You've been playing a joke on me, said Mother in surprise. You really did fall for it, I laughed. Well, you better go back and clean the attic, said Mother. Too bad, I said as I wen-t upstairs. I didn't get out of the job of cleaning the attic. BARBARA MORRIS - Grade V THE HAUNTED Mlll An old musty building and not one single person has been near it sin-ce that weird thing has been around, they all said. That afternoon, as Alice walked home, she thought to herself, Oh, they're just old timers. What do they know about it. Why, I'll just go and see it as soon as I get home. What Alice was in for, she didn't know. As she changed from her clean, white blouse and her green tartan skirt to her jeans, she thought, I thifnk they're silly to believe that there is some thing in the mill. Alice told her mother where she was go- ing andthoughtfully walked down the street. Soon she came to where the woods began, and walked through the woods to the mill. Alice walked for what seemed miles, then out of the ground rose a tall and weed-covered build- ing. As she walked closer, the old building seemed, not a frightening place, but a friend. Suddenly, something behind her knocked her down! She was about to stifle a scream when she saw, not the weird thing as she had su-pposed, but a sweet little fawn. She followed it till it entered the mill, then she paused. What would lie ahead. Alice wasn't sure, as she entered the lonely, desolate place. Almost before she stepped in, a weird whistling noise made Alice jump. She turned around quickly to see nothing but a small hole in the wall where the wind had been blowing through, but that wasn't all! Slowly a weird, white figure passed by the hole. A streak of fright passed down her back like a cold hand. Come on now, Alice, she said firmly, you don't believe in ghosts, do you? She made up her mind quickly, and cau- tiously she walked to what seemed like a door and looked around where the strange figure had been. Oh! she screamed with laughter and re- lief, It isn't a ghost at all. It's just an old rag. Why, I must have seen it as it fell from this nail, she pointed at a rusty old nail. What fools they are to believe in such rub- bish. But I'l1 let them have their little game and I won't tell. JANE LAWSON - Grade V FIIN WITH FRENCH On February 16, the parents of the junior students attended a demonstration of a new teaching method of French conversation, con- ducted by Madame Ragot - Bonjour Line . After watching slides and listen-ing to correlated tapes, the students repeated in French the explanation of each picture. This method captures the interest of the young students, and furthers their ability to con- verse in French. Both the parents and the pupils enjoyed the demonstration, and appre- ciated the afternoon of Fun with French. BON!0llR UNE Bonjour Line i-s our new method of learn- ing French conversation. Grades IV, V and VI use this new method. There are twelve les- sons in all. It's easy and enjoyable to learn because the stories are exciting and because of the slides. We have tapes for each lesson and we repeat the words after it. Wednes- days we have a French visitor, Madame Ragot whom we all like very much. We also have a better accent now because of the tape and because we can't speak English at the lesson. We hope that the grades below us will like it as much as we have. JANE LAWSON and BARBARA MORRIS -- Grade V Tll'f'I1f,ll jim' THE GOLDEN Fl UTE .Once upon a time there was a prince Johnathan. To his friends. he was known as John. He had a flute, but what John did not ignow was that it wasga pure? golden flute. He could play his flute very well and when he did the whole castle rang with music. One day John was talking to his father. He heard someone playing his flute. Away he went to see who was playing this flute. He found his flute on his bed where he had left it that morning. Suddenly he saw a lovely sight. It was a Fairy Queen dressed in a gown of soft- est silk. She picked up the flute and said to John, Did you know that this flute is of pure gold? No,'l said John in a hurry. John ran to his father and said, Father, father, this flute is of pure gold. The Fairy Queen said so. His father said, Where did you get that nonsense about Fairy Queens? Go away and let me work. John went out smiling. He knew he had seen a Fairy Queen and she had said, Your flute is of pure gold? .f .- ,vvwl 5 Q KAREN RICHARDSON Grade IV .v i . -'wr i THE MONKEY AND THE WISHES One upon a time there was a little, little baby monkey. A magic fairy came along and gave him a wish. He wished for a big giant flower. He went to his little house in his ground and there this big giant flower started growing underneath him. In the morning he worke up and he found out he was on a big giant flower. It was right by a rainbow. He slid down the rainbow and he found the magic pot of wishing gold that every rainbow has. He made a wish from it and then he made the wish that the flower would grow back down when he got on it. He went back and got on the flower and it started growing back down. He went back to his mother and then they lived happily ever after.

LESLEY DAVID - Grade VI 4 ' . wigw 1 N WINTER FUN lllvmity Sim THE 0UEEN'S COMMAND There was once a king and a queen who had a beautiful daughter. They said that they would give their daughter to any prince that could remove the mountain that stood in front of their castle. ' Many men tried but none succeeded. After a while a young prince tried, while he was shoveling, a little man in a red coat appeared. At first the prince was fightened, when when the little man told him that he could take the mountain away he listened eagerly. When the little man raised his arm the mountain disappeared, and the prince went to the queen and told him what he had done. The queen could hardly believe this and so she gave him another task, If you can catch the six headed dragon, she said, you can have my daughter. - The prince knew that he could never do a thing like that, but he went into the woods where the dragon lived. On the way he met the little man in the red coat. The prince told him wihat he had to do. The little man cap- tured the dragon and put him in a cage and the prince went and told the queen what he had done. The queen, not being able to keep her daughter any longer, gave h-er to the prince and they had a wedding and lived together for many happy years. . ' LOUISE EDWARDS - Grade IV THE HUNGRY WITCH Once upon a time there was a witch that could find no food. One day she went to the forest. She was looking for something to eat but 'she could find nothing to eat in the forest. She went to the zoo to find a big fat bear but she couldn't find anything to eat in the zoo either. Next she started for home. On her way hometlshe came to a pond. She looked for some fish in the pond but she couldn't find any fi'sh. Soon the witch got home and on her table there was a spider. The witch said, I can't find anything else to eat so I guess I must eat this spider. Now the spider heard what the witch was saying and he didn't want to be eaten up by the witch so he said, UDon't eat me up and tomorrow morning you shall find all .the food you can eat. So the witch didn't eat the spider and the next morning she' found all the food she could eat. , , . . SUSAN LAWLER - Grade II THE Fl UTE'S PROBIEM .Once in a village far, far away a golden flute was made. Everybody liked it and every- body played it as often as they liked. People .played it so much that one night it got all worn out. This flute had a fairy who would come whenever he needed her. He called her and the kind little fairy appeared. Sfhe said to the flute, 'tWhat is the matter?,' The flute answered, I have a problem. I have been played on too much and I am out of tune. I can solve your problem. she said. Close your eyes while I wave my magic wand over you, the fairy said. When the flute' opened his eyes he asked the fairy to play him. It was hard for her to handle, but she managed. The flute heard the sweet music and it was right in tune. The flute thanked his fairy and the fairy disappeared. The flute was never o-ut of tune again. Everybody who played it from that day on, heard the lovely music from the golden flute. D VALERIE SHEDDEN 4 Grade III THE MAGIC SPIDER Once upon a time there lived a witch. One day when the witch was cleaning her kitchen she saw a spider. ' Hello, said the spider. Hello, said the witch, HI didn't know spiders' could talk. HWell, I am a magic spider, said the spider. I'1l help you to clean up the house. And in a flash the witch's house was all cleaned up. All the webs were gone, dirty corners were cleaned, and dishes washed. ' 'tWow, gasped the witch. 'Thank you. So from that day on the witch always had the spider for her helper to clean things up. ELIZABETH CALL - Grade II THE WITCH AND THE SPi'DER One day there was a witch and she met a spider. She told the spider that if he took the princess from her castle she would give him a treasure. So the spider went to the castle and took the princess into the garden. Then a prince killed the spider and the king said that the prince could marry the princess. Then one dav, after they were married the prince set off to kill the witch. When the witch saw him coming she made a dragonto frighten him. But the prince killed the dragon. Then he found the witch and killed her. For many, many years the princess, the prince, and the king lived very happily. DEBBIE METCALFE - Grade II Tlrrnljl Sl'l'l'll THE MAGIC MUSHROOM Once upon a time there was a mushroom in the Smith's back yard. Now this mushroom was a magic mushroom. It could grow small or large, but only if it were for somebody else. This mushroom was very sad and lonely. He was the only mushroom he knew of that some- one didn't live in. All the other mushrooms had pixies or gnomes to keep them company. The Smiths had a little girl and a little boy. The girl's name was Mary and the boy's name was Bob. One day Bob and Mary went out to a friend's house to play. When they got back in the yard it started to thunder and rain. They ran quickly to the back door but found fit was locked. The mushroom felt sorry for them so he tried to think of something he could do. All of a sud- den he had an idea. He could use his magic to make himself big. So he grew a little bit, then a little more, then a little more. Then he called Mary, Bob, come here, I have shelter for you. Mary and Bob came over to the mushroom and got under it. Mary said, I wish we could do something for this magic mushroom. There is something you can do for me, said the mushroom. You can get me a pixie to live under me. t'Al1 right, said Bob, I'll go out tonight and get one. That night, about midnight, Bob came rushing into the yard. I caught a pixie! he said. The pixie looked at the mushroom and said it would make a very good house. So they all went to live in the mushroom, and they all lived happily ever after. PATRICIA HOWISON - Grade III The Beautiful Bird As I was sailing one fine day, I sailed into a lovely bay. And in the bay I saw a bird, Which had the sweetest song live heard. The lovely bird sat in a tree, And whispered soft ftoo-it too-ee J. He sang until the day was done, I think he had a lot of fun. BARBARA ASHDOWN - Grade IV Tiwenly eight TINY EU- S ADVENTURE Once there was a tiny elf, who wore a green cap, a green top, and a green pair of shoes. Tiny was his name and he lived in fairy land. One day Tiny went near a river bank and slid in on -the slippery mud. He screamed out, Help, help, save me. A little girl heard his squeaking and ran to the river bank. She saw Tiny and picked him up, and took h-im home. She made him a new pair of green shoes and a green top and hat and then set him free. Tiny went home, and his Mother said, Tiny, where have you been? and Tiny said to his Mother, I have :been at a giant's house who made me a new pair of shoes, a new hat, and a new top. She made them all in green, but Mother, I am never going to a giants' house again. And I believe he never did. SIDNEY MACAW - Grade III Princess, My Dog Princess likes to dig up things, She brings home mittens, socks and rings. Princess is so fat and wide, Her back is broad enough to ride. Princess jumps to ring the bell Who is there you cannot tell. Princess gets such muddy feet, She walks in puddles on the street. LAURIE CAMPBELL - Grade III THE IOS T WAND One day a fairy lost her wand. She was very unlhappy. She was afraid to go out with- out it. She might meet a dragon and not be able to change him into a handsome prince. She sat in her little house and cried and cried. Then one d-ay a boy fairy came and said, Why are you crying? She said, Because I have lost my wand. Don't worry, he said, I have a very good wand. He waved it and suddenly she had a new wand in her hand. Now she was happy again. TANIS EVANS - Grade II 1 I I JUNIORS AT GAMES AROUND THE BIRDBA TH Once upon a time there lived a little fairy. She was a very sad fairy, because she could not dance. Every night she would sit and watch the other fairies dance around the bird- bath. One night when she was watching the other fairies she got an idea. I know, she said, I can go to the magician. So the next day she set off to see the magician. She had to walk. It took a long time. In a few days she got there and she saw a big mountain. On the top of the moun- tain was the magician's home. She said, I guess I have to climb that mountain. Soon she got to the top. The magicians put a s-pell on her that made her dance. She went back to the other fairies and from that night on she too danced around the birdrbath. JOAN ASHDOWN - Grade II THE FAIRY WHO COULD NOT DANCE One day a fairy was playing in the woods. S-he tried to dance but she couldn't so she wen.t home. In the morning she tried and tried again. She finally stopped. She said, I think I will go to a magician. So she did. The magician tried but he couldn't help her. She went home. The next morning, the fairy got up. She said, I still can't dance. Then a boy fariy said to the girl fairy I can't dance either. So they lived happily ever after. SUSAN CAMPBELL - Grade II My Spare Time I like to draw pictures When I have spare time. I get all the fixtures from The room next to mine. With crayons and paper I draw and then colour, A clown in a caper Or a pretty red flower. I sit there for hours Just drawing for fun. Then I get hungry And go down for a bun. MARCIA CAMPBELL - Grade III Frost Frost is but a silver shield, It covers hill and dale and field. It covers icy window panes, And covers winding meadow lanes. Jack Frost has many shapes, you know, And covers all the world in snow. The trees all huddle close and tight, In fear they all will get frost bite. JANE LAWSON - Grade V Spring Spring is here, I hope it'll stay. Let us now go out to play. The birds are singing the sky is blue. All of a sudden there's much to do.

Broomball games, between the school houses, started off the activities, fortunately, the scores were not recorded! Skaters and nonaskaters slid around the ice, with tumbles and collisions t-he order of the day. The finale was the game which matched the fathers against their daughters. There still seems to be some doubt as to the validity of the one goal scored, for a father was seen dropping the ball into the net! How did he get by those fourteen goal-keepers? Then back we went to the school for sand- wiches and hot coffee, and I suspect, a little rest for the fathers! A toboggan slide seemed appealing, so with great enthusiasm, the pro- ject was undertaken immediately, and several runs proved successful. As many of the fathers had never toured the school, this was next on the agenda. It was almost lunch time, and it was difficult to steer the group past the Junior Common Room, with its tempting aromas! However, the tour was completed, and declared very interesting and informative. The after-lunch activity was a round-robin of Ping Pong, but the day's exertions were catching up with eevryoneg the match was very brief. Judging from the comments of the stu- dents, the day was most successful. We all exten-d a sincere thank you to the many fathers who helped to make this such a happy day and we are already looking forward to next year's Father-Daughter Day. JANIS MCKEAG - Form III OUR SKA TING SHA CK At last winter was here with its chilly wind and ice and snow. Out came the skates and sleds which for many are a great part of winter enjoyment. For days we braved the cold and frost-bites. Then an angel of mercy put up a skating shack and we stopped wondering if winter sports were worth it. It was a skater's refuge when tired and cold, we came in out of the cold. For others it was a play-'house where mother watched her snow-pies and spanked her numerous wailing babes. The snow slowly disappeared and it began to be like spring. So the day came when Old Faithful was locked and bolted. For many of us it was like saying adieu to an old friend. SUSAN GARBETT - Grade VI THE BEATIES AT BAlMORAl HAH 'Ilhe plot of this Form III puppet show concerned the Beatles, who went to Beverley Hills. There they met the Beverley Hillbillies. Granny, of course, immediately decided that these pests must be sent away. Off they went to Balmoral Hall, where they displayed shocking table manners, and a generally disruptive capacity in all school af- fairs. Soon they departed for St. John's- Ravenscourt, amidst tears from the girls and sighs of relief from the staff. The play was unrehearsed, and the lines were spoken spontaneously as the plot un- folded. Several Form III girls played two roles, disguising their voices for the respect- ive characters. With considerable ingenuity, the puppets were constructed of bits and pieces of this and that. Although this show did not win an Oscar Award, it brightened one Friday evening for the boarders.

NEILSON WINTER FUN Yesterday we went toboganning. You should have seen us! W-o-o-s-h!! Boy was it fun. And that was a nice steep hill too. Some- times I was allowed to go down the hill alone. And sometimes it was scary! Once my Dad fell off the toboggan and all he did was laugh as though nothing had happened. Sometimes we just slid down the hill without the tobog- gan and it was quite bumpy too! The first time, Mom was too scared to go down the hill. Then after awhile she went down. Whenever Leslie, my older sister went down the hill by herself she always screamed. Then we had to go home. What a lovely day it was. Tl: fl'f.ll U C :IXTH RCJVV - R. Condo, N. Flintoft, H. Gage, S.

'Seeking better things together, through this year we've gained A comradeshiip, and shield or not, its bounty will remain. Thank you all for a wonderful year, and good luck always! LOVE FROM KATHY Tlzirlhu Il BRA EMAR HOUSE Dear Braemar It's very hard to start to write my thoughts to you all As I think of all the work and fun welve joined in since last fall: In School and games you all have tried your best to make us win, At every turn your spirits soared, though your games attendance was thin. Sports Day was our first challenge, and we gave it a wonderful try: We did not win, but were very close, I say wtih an audible sigh - Our Volleyball games were the greatest of fun, and everyone loves to play, And here again we were second best, but had lots fun anyway. High jump and minute shots we then did add to our house contest, We lost the jump, which was too bad, but in basketball shots we were best! Many of you learned to play basektball, and found it could be quite fun. Our two Braemar teams won most of their games, and so, basketball we won.. At the Day in the Country so long ago, we worked to start the year, For the candies and cakes and tickets we sold, to each of you goes a cheer. Our conduct this year was not very bad, but good it certainly was not, And by those of you who lost no points, I know a. hard battle was fought. I 'm sure you remember the joy we had preparing for our House Prayers. The practices and the line-ups, which showed that everyone cares. Creative Writing is almost through, and the Library Quiz is done. 'Twas all worthwhile and I know gave a chance of experience for everyone. And now I find I must say, goodbye, and thanks for a wonderful year To each and every one of you I send a lusty cheer. For working and playing along with me, for your wonderful House Spirit too My thanks once again as I say au revoir and good luck in all that you do.

CRAIG GOWAN Dear Craig Gowans, Another year has been added to the ar- chives of Craig Gowan House. When I think back over the years I have attended Bal- moral Hall, and especially on the day when I was finally placed in a House, I remember most of all the joy belonging to something special. For the first few weeks Itll admit I couldn't remember its name, but still it was my house and I became proud of it and have tried to be loyal to it and I hope that is how you feel too. What is this thing called a House? A house is a body of girls working towards a common goal, which effort for our school binds us into a family with each member supporting each other with as much love and enthusiasm as possible. Yet to me Craig Gowan is not just a House, it's a part of me, and being your House Head has given me the oppor- tunities to know each of you individually. Perhaps we diidn't win the shield this Tllirl-11 foul' year but not every house can be a winner. Your effort I know and your house is the better for it. Think back over this year. Do you remember . . . Day in the Country? Sports Day? Games? Snow Sculpturing? Throughout the year we have stood by our house and each of us knows how well she has lived up to our school motto, Meliora Petens by seeking better things and doing them. My thanks to all and you for your support and loyalty. To Mary and Frances a special thank you for being my strong right hand in the Battle be-tween the Houses. I will always belong to Craig Gowan and will look forward to your invita-tions for House events. Head high everyone and be glad that you and I belong to Craig Gowan House. Good luck for your future! Love, MIDGE, Head of Craig Gowan House Glen Gaim House Dear Glen Gairns: As this brief year draws to a close And all last words are said Let's linger with some memoriesg And then 1et's look ahead. Remember Glen Gairn's Sport's Day fight And all the hoarse-voiced cries? Our well-trained athletes dashed ahead To help us break those ities We held our own in volleyball, In ping pong did quite well, At basketball we scored some wins High jumpers did excel. Our great success throughout the year We cannot overlook - It took both courage and restraint But few names blot- that Book ! Let's not forget creative work The Library quiz was fun, Or the stories, poems and articles And the photography we've done. Thanks to all my loyal Glen Gairns You've made this year such fun. I'll always remember our wonderful times Good Luck and Goodbye everyone. With love, DEEDEE, Head of Glen Cairn FOURTH ROW' - T. VVheeler, A. Hunt, M. Andison, D. Lansky, M. Thompson, S.

NJ . , 7 , 'Ft 'Si Ol' J 4+ 'Y 1 ...M REI-'LECTIONS BY A SCH00l ORGANIST Remembering the days when Linda Leach and Carol Wiebe could play any hymn, Vicki Griffiths and I, being the only two who could play the organ in September, tried to keep up the tradition, although we did not have the experience of Linda and Carol. When I was first asked to play the organ I felt honoured to be asked to play for Prayers but after realizing the responsibility I became rather nervous and then almost frightened. Now, more than a year later, and after a lot of extra organ practice, it is a pleasure. Being called on to sightread hymns at choir practice is a challenge because you feel that you are not capable of keeping up with the singing but now it is fun to try new hymns and accompany the choir in its anthems. When I open the organ in the morning, a certain thrill passes through me just seeing the stops and manuals and knowing that in ten minutes I will be playing the proces- sional for the choir to enter, and that I must be ready at the right moment for to- days hymns. During the year our organists' guild has expanded to include Jan Jackson, Trish John- ston, Laura Johnston, Susan Majury and El- speth Dempster and with Marilyn Williams joining us, if she passes the tests, next year's organists should prove equal to maintaining and even raising the standards of fine organ- ists that Balmoral Hall has always had. CATHERINE MCNAIR CHRISTMAS CAROL SER VICE In 1965 the Junior School had a carol service of its own. Eaoh grade had a part to read from the Bible and a carol to sing. There were Christmas trees at each win- dow and on tfhe trees were lights which the children had brought. Tllirty .sir We filed into our seats led by the Grade Ones. Then we said the opening prayer and sat down. Grades Four, Five and Six sang two carols. T-hen the curtain opened and Mary stood on the stage while the Grade Sixes said The Magnificatf' Next the Angel, Gabriel, came on the stage and one Grade Six stood up and said, Fear not Mary for God is with you. Then the Grades Two and Three stood and sang their two carols while the Shep- herds stood on the stage. Next Grade Four read from the Bible. After that the Kings went up the aisle. Then three Grade Sixes stood and each sang a verse of We Three Kings while the Kings were giving their gifts to Jesus. Then many Grade I Angels appeared and said Peace on earth good will toward men. After that Grades II and III went towards the manger so that they could see Jesus. We left the auditorium singing, Hark the Herald Angels Sing. LORRAINE CRAMP - Grade VI THE ORCHESTRA Early in the year, Forms, I, II and III at- tended a Junior High School Concert at the Auditorium. Later at a Music Appreciation class, we discussed the compositions we had heard and the instruments of the orchestra. After Christmas, we divided into four groups with each group studying one section in the orchestra. Everyone had a job to do. Some did illustrations, some did essays on composers, everyone was busy. The various groups were the woodwinds, the brass, the percussion-s and the strings. Our group did the percus-sions, which was extremely inter- esting. It covered the piano, the celesta, tam- bourine and cymbals, the drums, the glock- enspiel, the bells and a famous well known percussion composer, Bach. Everyone learned something new and everyone enjoyed it. LORRAINE MURRAY - Form II THE MANITOBA THEATRE CENTRE AND BAIMORAI HAIL Great enthusiasm for theatre has recently developed in the school. It has been fostered by the Manitoba Theatre Cent-re and its pro- ductions. Form IV and V attended, at St. Maryis Academy, the second M.T.C. high school tour. The V's were specially interested in the proposal scene from Henry VF One of the most popular pieces of poetry set to music was Death of the Hired Man. Al- though the Form VI's did not see the theatre centre's first tour, the C.B.C. later broadcast their performance of Arms and the Man which we enjoyed. Some of the senior boarders have taken advantage of M.T.C.'s students' tickets for the Saturday, five-th-irty supper performance. Len Cariou charmed many hearts with his rendi- tion of Mac the Knife from The Three- penny Opera. Perhaps the most contro- versial play this year was Andorra Every- one agreed that the standard of production throughout the year was high and the plays interesting. Congratulations to Nina Mae Sutherland who h-as been attending M.T.C.'s Theatre School and had a part in the new play, Nic'hlolas Romanoff which will be playing at Stratford this summer. We suggest that next year even more students get season tickets in order to partici- pate in the world of drama and the rich fare of M.T.C. TEDDI NANCE AIUMNAE DINNER During the evening of January 27th, for the first time in some years, the alumnae of Havergal, Rupertsland, Riverbend and Bal- mor-al Hall assembled. They met in Aikins House, and later proceeded to the dining room of Dalton House. The dinner was a great success, with service provided by board- ers from Forms V and VI. On one side of the dining room there was a table which displayed trophies, newspaper clippings, ban- ners and year books, dating back several years. The pleasant evening concluded with the annual meeting of the Alumnae Associa- tion, at which Jo Adamson Ainsley was elected president. TONI STOVEL THEATRE SCHOOI I was in Grade VI when I first went to a Theatre School production and soon after I registered there for classes. Now at the end of my third year I have studied pantomine, mime, movement and speech. This year I was given the opportunity to audition for a part in a play at the Manitoba Theatre Centre. On Monday, February 14, not even knowing the play, I read in front of Mr. Michael Langham, Artistic Director from Stratford, Leslie Hurry, costume and set de- signer, and Jack Merigold, the production stage manager. The next day they told me I had 'been chosen for a part in Nicholas Romanov, the story of the Russian Revolu- tion of 1917. For most of six weeks my life was spent at the Manitoba Theatre Centre. There were long hours of rehearsing with in- tervals of speech, mime and feeling classes. On opening night March 9th, I was very ex- cited. Gifts were exchanged and wishes of Break a legl', could be heard everywhere. The play ran for two and a half weeks during which I met many 'interesting people. I shall never forget what an experience and a priv- ilege it was for me to be involved so closely in the production of Nocholas Romanovf' NINA MAE SUTHERLAND FORM FIVE HELPS DIG In early October, ten Form V girls, par- ticipated in the world's largest sod-turning ceremony . This marked the beginning of the new Centennial Arts Centre's construc- tion. We signed our names in the Citizens' Book, which will be sealed in the Concert Hall corner-stone for posterity, and those of us who did not bring along shovels bought sourvenir spades. The ceremony was opened by Archbishop H. H. Clark, Primate of All Canada. Mr. John W. Fisher, Chairman of the Canadian Cen- tennial Commission, and Hon. M. B. Stein- kopf, Chairman of the Manitoba Centennial Commission both spoke briefly. Then Premier Duif Roblin rang a large bell - to signify the start of the digging spree. With the sun shining brightly, the band playing gaily, the Canadian flag and the provincial crests flying, all the dedicated diggers dug. After several futile attempts to appear on television, we returned to Balmoral Hall, de- lighted with our participation in such a memorable historic occasion.

At the corner of MAC's FAR- LANE, HARRI's SON, EVERETT Mercier was setting out the COOKing stall, where CAMP- BELL's soup and cheese WEISS was being served. In the distance, the PARSONS were seen talking to the ladies. HOWARD you this EVER happy ETT glorious day? he grgeeted them.

CROSSly the men de- manded a reason' for this, but all the women said was, Get on your HOSIES and bring fback some more supplies! Reluictantly the men ROED'ER horses off, and LEDER, the MEN BRAULT back the desired supplies. Finally, a POW-wow in front of the WELL brought an exciting day to a close.

FORM lll OPL-'RAS Form III music option class enjoyed a season of opera after Christmas. Each group chose an opera and prepared a scene or two for the class. We put ra great deal of hard work into our operas giving up all music classes to research and practice. The results, however, were worth every min-ute of our efforts. From each group we heard a summary of the opera chosen, and a brief glimpse of its composer's life. We say the gay intrigues of a smuggler's life and heard the exciting Dance of the Toreadors from Bizetfe Carmen . The gay ariettas of La Boheme portrayed the simple, care-free, ibut poor life of four young Parisian lovers. We then listened to the vib- rant music and tense story of the heroic, Swiss archer, William Tell . The well-knovvn story of Handsel and Greteli' with Humper- dinck's lilting tunes, :brought pictures to our minds of this childhood fairy tale. We are waiting with keen anticipation for the last opera, Madame Butterfly . DIANA MAJURY - Form III FAM OU5 FORM ONES Which of Form I: 1. Is as shy as Eleanor Roosevelt? 2.

The residence has been larger than former years, claiming girls from Kamloops, British Colum- b-ia to Toronto, Ontario, and from Churchill, Manitoba to Duluth, Minnesota. Miss Craword, our P.E. teacher, has cer- tainly kept us occupied. Swimming is a great success and there has been a very large group participating. Many girls, -in-cluding, Marlene, who could not swim, passed the English Water Survival tests. For those who did not like leaving their horses at home, riding classes are held on Fridays and Saturdays. One of the highlights of our sporting activ- ities was the ski trip to La Riviere and we cannot wait for more next year. Special outings have included the Royal Winnipeg Ballet, the Manitoba Theatre Centre plays, Pop Concerts at the Auditorium, with smaller groups attending the opening of the 27th Legislative Assembly, Othello, the Hol- land Festival, and the Art Fair. We are all looking forward to continuing these interests next year. Despite our continuous struggle against the rules and regulations and our own private spats, we are happy with our boarders' kit- chen, the T.V. suppers, summer picnics, and winter pizza parties.

This Service, planned and directed lby the House Head, Kathy Neil- son and conducted by herself and Seniors, was a first in Balmoral Hall's history. Ballater introduced a new hymn to the School's repertoire - The Battle Hymn of the Republic which has since become a favourite. Cathy McNair accompanied on the piano, Bible passages were read by Teddi Nance and Susan Bracken, and Kathy led the prayers and then spoke at the end of the service about the House System and friend- ship. Supported by parents of some of the Ballater students and joined by the whole School, it was a memorable event which set a precedent. MISS ES TEllE CAR VER One of our most interesting and memorable speakers this year was Miss E. Carver who spoke to us after Prayers on Friday, Decem- ber 3rd, 1965. Born in Jamaica, Miss Carver spent most of her adult life in the United States where for many years, she was an English teacher in Hopkins Grammar School for Boys in New Haven, Connecticut. As a veteran on the road of life, Miss Carver spoke to us as rookies who were just beginning. Always interested in young people, Miss Carver had clearly devoted her life to youth. She defined education as the training of the faculties, especially of the minds of the young. Believing that our faces communi- cate with our eyes as the windows of our souls, Miss Carver amused us when she said that big hair do's only serve to hide empty heads. As Miss Carver closed, she left us with a lovely Christmas thought - that 'igiving is the most wonderful joy in the world. DITTE LANSKY STUDENT EXCHANGE Last summer I was one of twenty-four students who visited Quebec under the spon- sorhsip of the Canadian Centennial Commis- sion. On our arrival in Montreal we were greeted by twenty-four French-Canadian families, each of whom billeted one Mani- to-ban. The first two days of our vis-it were un- usually busyg we went, by bus, along the St. Lawrence to Quebec City. There we toured Laval University, Old Quebec, the legislative buildings, the provincial museum, and numer- ous other landmarks. On our return to Montreal, our hosts intro- duced us to their own city and to the way of life in a bilingual community. We watched locks in operation on the St. Lawrence River, visited t-he site of the 1967 World Fair, and strolled through the botanical gardens. With the hope that we might meet again, we returned home, anxious to tell others of the wonderful time we had enjoyed with our new Canadian friends, and of the many things we had learned about another part of our country. MARY BRUCE BRAEMAR HOUSE PRA YERS After two weeks of intensive training, Braemar House Choir was finally ready for our morning prayers. We had practised our favourite hymns - Take my Life , and Blake's Jerusalem Nancy Little had pre- pared the Parable of the Talents, and Judy Dowler, several prayers, Trish Johnston had planned her talk on Talents and House Spirit. As we walked down the aisle we all knew this would'be an interesting and inspiring event.

Three cheers for Miss Crawford! September - Tests for new girls and they were soon placed in Houses. Games Cap- tains appointed and track and field prac- tices began. October 6 - Sports Day! Track and field events will continue throughout the year with awards being made in June. A quick breath and we were all on hand at volley- 'ball. Boarders' classes in swimming and riding were soon under way. The high- light for some was the Cross-Country Run at Neepawa on October 30th. November - Volleyball matches were played at St. Mary's Academy, Sacred Heart and the Manitoba Institute of Technology. House matches created great excitement. There was noticeable improvement in our volleyball skills December - but some mistakes. Mistakes were recorded as experience and skill was loyally cheered. Congratulations to Craig Gowan, the winning House. January - Basketball season opened. It was good to see the increased interest in bas- ketball this year. January 15th was the Father-Daughter Winter-Capades with Broomball at the Fnurfy four Arena followed by tobogganing and lunch at School. January 24th - Bronze awards presented for Personal Survival Swimming Tests. February - Baskeilball matches with United College, St. Mary's Academy, and M.B.C.l. The memorable event in February, how- ever, was the ski trip to La Riviere. All agreed that this was a tremendous ex- perience and should be continued. March - Basketball House matches kept us busy and there was no doubt that our practices had made possible some fairly lively and closely-matched games. Con- gratulations to Braemar who won the honours here. Due to a large entry the Ping-Pong tournament became a major event particularly in the Jun-ior High School where ............ won the singles. April to June - Junior Captains have taken over the Softball season - D. Ferguson, J. Rankin, C. Tamblyn and A. Ivan. Now we need a warm wind to dry up the field and the tennis court, so that action can begin. Unless you've been to games you won't know what a good year this has been and with such help from the games captains, House Heads and Miss Crawford it has been a wonderful year for me. DIANA KILGOUR - Sports Captain H. Davies, J. Cox, J. Evans, J. Riley HIGH SCHOOL CHAMPIONS CROSS-COUNTRY MEET On Saturday, October 30, 1965, Elizabeth Anderson, Susan David, Janis McKeag, Joan Rankin, Nina Sutherland and Ann Townsend, represented Balmoral Hall and its school div- ision in a cross-country meet at Neepawa. Manitoba. An early breakfast, 123 miles of driving and at 9:45 we were ready to goi In addition to the cross-country race for teams of six from each school, there was an open race for individuals. However, our girls, who had been training for just two weeks prior to the meet, took part only in the team event. lt was a one and a half mile course, which took the contestants approx- imately ten minutes. The course was rough, in fact rugged, with steep hills, sandy ground, and much stubbleg but, in spite of sore feet and some aching muscles, our team came through with the comment that It was hard for the amount of time we practised, but it was fun, even though we didn't place. However, these girls did place in the admiration of their Balmoral Hall classmates, who were proud of their school representa- tion in this event. JUNIOR HIGHSCHOOL TRACK TEAM Fofby firr GRADUATES I966 CATHERINE BELL: BALLATER: 1965-1966 Though a resident of Victoria, Cathi came to us from Lausanne, Switzerland and her fluency in French is envied by everyone. We never see her on the weekends though we hear they are a riot! Next year Cathi plans a busy year in Victoria before she takes a course in hotel ad- ministration at Cornell. SUSAN BRACKEN: BALLATER HOUSE: 1952-1964, 1965-1966 Though Sue was at Branksome last year, happily for Balmoral, she returned and has been an able Prefect, and the editor of the School Magazine, She is interested and skillful in many sports, a member of both the school basketball and volleyball teams and successfully represented the school in the High School Badminton Tour- nament. An ardent supporter of Ballater and its games captain, she is noted for her wreathed smiles, and ripple of laughing . MARY BRUCE: CRAIG GOWAN: 1962-1966 As a capable games captain and prefect, Mary is a strong leader of Craig Gowan. An alto in the choir, Art Editor of Optima Anni, and mem- ber of Studio 91. Mary is also the supposedly innocent member of the back row who pro- vides such distraction. It is difficult to consider her a most pleasing and innocent woman. No doubt, when she graduates from Katherine Gibbs in Boston, Mary will soon become the secretary of a handsome young executive. ROSEMARY CONDO: BALLATER: 1959-1966 'A friend may well be reckoned the master- piece of nature Emerson A friend indeed but Rosemary can often be seen attacking those with untidy uniform, in Ballater House, posting up the weekly T.I.C. list, or collecting fines for overdue books in the library. She is a busy treasurer of the library committee and a member of the student council. After a holiday in Europe she plans to invade United College for further pearls of wisdom. SUSAN CRAMP: BRAEMAR: 1963-1966 She issues not in laughter but in still smiles. Active in the school choir, Sue is also on the magazine executive and uniform monitress for Braemar. She will long be remembered for the e's she continually attaches to the ende of wordse in English class. Are oo cwazy? Only her chemistry teacher knows for sure. She may be a champion in Scottish dancing but her pre- sent plans include French and more French either in Quebec or Switzerland. Good luck, Sue! JUDITH DOWLER: BRAEMAR: 1960-1966 Judy, a prefect and our effective school cap- tain, has been a member of the choir, and a strong supporter of Braemar. As honorary lib- rarian she has devoted much of her time to supervising library studies and as School Captain her special duties have included the energetic Junior lines. Next year will see J.M.M.D. at the University in Saskatoon taking nursing adminis- tration. The River Heights' group will miss her as Ubenignant information was her hobby. JANE DUCKWORTH: CRAIG GOWAN: 1965-1966 Jane is one of the most popular girls in the class - she lives next door to Tache Hall at the University of Manitoba. No wonder she's been absent quite frequently this year. She is well- known for her after-party in her artistically- decorated recreation room, and for her red car which will be missed, from its usual spot on Langside. Fine Arts at Trinity College, Toronto, is her goal for September. We've loved having you Jane. Her serene smile and calmness of manner are surpassed only by her wit and charm. lVIIDGE GOSKO: CRAIG GOWAN: 1964-1966 Midge, a prefect and head of Craig Gowan puts sports at the top of her list of interests but Mount Agassiz ski patrol and the School choir both benefit from her talents. That ski holiday in Quebec slowed her down only slightly - she is almost as speedy on crutches - B.H. will miss her exuberance next year but U. of M. should enjoy her. This maiden she lived with no other thought Than to love and be loved. ALIXE HUNT: GLEN GAIRN: 1958-1966 Golden t?D hair and sparkling eyes! Despite the fact that A1 seems to have some strange but extremely strong aversion to games she has found time to support her house in other ways. She is a strong alto, an active member of the library committee and a member of the student council. Next fall we will see Alixe an artsman at the U. of M. after a summer in Europe. Good luck A1 and bon voyage. JANET JACKSON: BRAEMAR: 19651966 Her voice was ever soft, gentle and low, an excellent thing in women. Jan has been a welcome addition to the residence and to Form VI this year. She is a member of the School choir, one of our organists and a supporter of Braemar House. Next year Jan plans to use her artistic abilities in Interior Design at the University of Manitoba. We'l1 miss your quiet voice and ori- ginal jokes Jan but best of luck to you. PATRICIA JOHNSTON: BRAEMAR: 1959-1966 There's no great genius without some touch of madness. That's. our Trish. She must be mad to be as active as she is: a prefect, an enthusiastic Head of Braemar House, on the Magazine Executive, as ex School Captain is effective in both School and house teams, an organist and in the choir . . . and yet for all that she has time for those 100'.s in Maths. Good luck Trish when you meet the Business Realities in Commerce next year! DITTE LANSKY: GLEN GAIRN: 1953-56, 57-64, 65-66 . . . there is nothing good or bad but thinking makes it so. Everyone at Balmoral Hall welcomed Ditte back this year and say her not only receive her prefect's cord but also become our very able Form VI Pres. Besides this she is head of the choir and School reporter. Her cheerful laughter and amusing bulletin board clippings will not soon be forgotten. What does the future hold, Ditte? Will it be French at the Sorbonne or a Eisit to your native country Denmark? Happy ays! 'o Vfy riyllf NANCY LITTLE: BRAEMAR: 1963-1966 Some are born great as our Head Girl has proved in her lead performance in that memor- able drama Album Nix. Some achieve great- ness . . . practising long hard hours for the School basketball team and in the alto section of the Choir. Some have greatness thrust upon them as in last June when Nancy was elected Head .Girl,.in September when appointed Honor- ary Librarian, in December when chosen to re- present U.S.A. at the M.U.N.A. in Minneapolis, and in February when appointed Chairman of the Vlth Form Club. Next year at McGill should be even more interesting for our Little. GWEN MCQUADEZ GLEN GAIRN: 1964-1963 They say that the best things in life come in small packages, and this proves to be quite cor- rect when referring to Gwen. Our Form VI Striver occasionally managed to tear herself away from her chemistry and physics, to support Glen Gairn as its Secretary-Treasurer and to work on the Magazine Executive. -Her extra curri- cular Nick-tivity keeps her busy, but she seems to find time to tutor her classmates and visit in the residence frequently. We know she will do well in Pharmacy next year. Carry on Gwen! TEDDI NANCE: BALLATER: 1961-1966 Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice, Take each man's censure, but reserve thy judgement. -Shakespeare. Our Head Librarian, whose natural habitat is - what else? - the Senior School library tal- though she is sometimes torn away by her duties as Prefect, Ballater Archivist, and alto in the choirl will always be remembered as the tall tthe better to reach those high shelvesland silent tex- cept when you owe a finel members of Form VI. Next year Teddi plans to study drama at the University of Alberta. KATHRYN NEILSON: BALLATER: 1957-1966 Her talk was like a stream which runs With rapid change from rocks to roses. A prefect and Ballater's enthusiastic House Head this year -- Kathy has been seen at almost any time hunting down runaway Ballaters for games. She was also a Literary Editor for our School Magazine, on the school basketball and volleyball teams, and in the choir. Next year Kathy's going into Arts at University College. TERRY ROGERS: BRAEMAR: 1965-1966 As games captain and a member of both the Braemer basketball and volleyball teams, Terry is a strong supporter of her house. Terry is a member of the magazine committee, the library committee and the school volleyball team. We will never forget her profound remarks during English class and we hope she is successful next year at the University of Alberta, Edmonton. Let me not burst in madness? DEANNA SILVESTER: GLEN GAIRN: 1956-1966 Though this be madness yet there be method in it. An apt quotation for our capable Glen Gairn House Head. Besides being a perfect, a choir member and honorary editor of the School Magazine, Deedee is sufficiently organized to play on the School basketball team and lead her own house team. After ten years as a busy and loyal day girl, she came in to residence for two weeks in order to have missed no part of School life. Deedee takes her friendly smile to U. of M. in the fall. Our loss and their gain. Good luck pal. SALLY SPOHN: GLEN GAIRN: Super-Sal found herself at House Games for the first time this year and much to her surprise, she liked them. Much to our surprise, she was good at them. When not fulfilling her duties as Form VI Vice-President, Head of the Junior Library, or Glen Gairn's Social Convener she can be found going over clothing lists for Europe or working on some old car. Next year will find her in Arts at the U. of M. - Best of luck, Sal! FRANCES TANNER: CRAIG GOWAN: Francie spent most of her winter weekends ski- ing, but managed to take some time off for school. A prefect and a member of the choir, she could be seen processing books in the library every Friday. Having fallen in love with Victoria, she plans to attend university there where she will grow her hair and perhaps attend Arts lectures. Is it true girls who go out with blondes have more fun? TONI STOVEL: BALLATER: Laughter holding both her sides. That is Toni - the Sixth Form's answer to in- stant mirth. As photography editor for the year- book, she is only surpassed by Barney and Arthur. Besides being a prefect and a member of the School choir, she has been an active social convener for Ballater House. Tonie is still decid- ing where to take her jest and jollity' next year. Good luck, Toni! MARION THOMPSON: GLEN GAIRN: Marion came from Virden to grace the resi- dence of Balmoral Hall with her presence. She sings in the choir and is more than just one of those fifteen minute supporters of Glen Gairn games. She plays on the school volleyball team and is Glen Gairn's Games Captain. She's deter- mined to pass Chemistry to be a Lab. Technician next year. What's the attraction in Neepawa, Marion . . .? Late nights and early morn, A banker's often weary worn. CATHERINE VIVIAN: BRAEMAR: Our busy head of residence -- with merry eyes and laughing smile is also a prefect and sings in the school choir. Joe Genius is deter- mined to succeed and when not in the Lab. on weekends she often unwound on the ski-slopes near her home town of Neepawa Cvia Minne- dosa?D Cathi, the farmer's daughter, plans to take Arts at University College with a distant eye on social work. Best of luck always. TEDDI WHEELER: GLEN GAIRN: Because of her extra-curricular activities, our 'wynnsome' lass is seldom seen at Glen Gairn games. However, she is an active member of the school choir and the magazine committee. She is the envy of everyone with her Banff-made tan. Great oaks from little acorns grown. So keep trying, Ted! and good luck at U. of M. PAMELA WILLIAMS: CRAIG GOWAN: Pam, our one-man dating committee has tried to keep Form VI in order during her term as Class President. She is a strong member of the school volleyball team, and the Craig Gowan team, she adds her soprano voice to the school choir, and her smile helps her to solicit ads for the Magazine. Next year Pam plans to enter Nursing Education where we are sure she will be a success with her terrific bedside manner. uint' BAlMORAl HAH CAIENDAR CHRISTMAS TERM-T965 Sept. 8 Sept. 9 Sept. 10 Sept. 18 20 24 Oct. 6 Oct. 8 Oct. 22-25 Oct. 23 Oct. 21 Oct. 26 Oct. 29 Oct. 30 Nov. 1 Nov. 5 Nov. 12 Nov. 16 Nov. 24 Dec. 1 Dec. 2 Dec. 7-9 Dec. 16 Dec. 17 1-'iffy WEDNESDAY, September 7th - Boarders arrive.

Adventure waits beyond your door. And venture into worlds where he may tread alone. Dreams are not vain, but dream you now, no more, Now can he plunge unto the ocean's floor, For knowledge is the magic and the key, Or gouge an eon's dust to the eaith's core. So, cross the threshold to your destiny. Not only does he giant feats, to dare, But, knowledge obligates you for all time But quiet conquests, which his world will share. To strive yet more to learn, and higher climb, Who can foretell which boy among all these And at the summit, life's design is plain Will cause each illness in mankindto cease? To serve your fellows is your final gain. What future mother may give birth to one This is what all our Gods have pre-ordained Whose hands will harness power from the sun For such as may be chosen, and unchained, Or bring about an end to all race hate? To loose the bonds of ignorance, and soar Thus then, this planet could fulfill its fate. Above the minds of little men, for ever more. POWELL EQUIPMENT DESMOND F.
