Brentwood College Magazine e € ditorial •linn in minium ■liiiiiiilinrmrrliiiiiii iiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiih- S WE are about to add another page to the past year with satisfaction and a just pride in the accomplishments which mar- ked it. So often, the growth of a school is measured solely by the rise and fall in numbers. If this were true, Brentwood might be said to have remained Sphinx-like — but such is not the case ! Growth, as we know it, comes by doing, and evidences of this statement are found in the formation of the Cadet Corps; the success at games; the completed Tennis Court, and the fine results obtained in the Departmental exam- inations. Since a school grows and prospers by what is put into it, those concerned in these activities and achievements are leaving behind something tangible for future Historians to build on, for the boys alone are the makers of the School ' s history. Brentwood ' s history, w£ look over [Page Three]

Brentwood College Magazine School Notes FTER MANY years of valuable service to the school, Miss Egerton, Head Matron, left us at the end of the Lent term. The esteem we felt for her loyal and unstinting service took tangible form in the presentation of a hand-bag and cheque on the eve of her departure for California. It is the hope of all that she will enjoy good health in retirement. Her place has been filled by Mrs. Ley, who came to us in the middle of the Lent term. To take the place of Mr. C. A. S. Legge, who left us to do post-graduate work at Harvard University, we welcomed Mr. H. B. MacKay of Nova Scotia. Owing to ill-health, he left us at Christmas to return to the east. Madame Sanderson-Mongin agreed to fill the breach and came out from town to take the Matriculation French classes. The science department was augmented with the arrival of Mr. A. G. Bricknell who, with Mrs. Bricknell, we welcomed at the beginning of Lent term. Capt. Levien acted as Housemaster for the Upper House, taking the place of Mr. P. D. Taylor, who was accepted for duty in the R.C.N.V.R. Though in a milder form than in past years, German Measles spread through the senior element of the school for some weeks without showing signs of abating. The Sick-Bay quarters were somewhat overtaxed, at times. During the winter, a large group of seniors took advantage of P.T. classes, supervised by one of the instructors of the Provincial Recreation League. A. W. Gillespie was invited to read the lessons at Evensong in Christ Church Cathedral following the Youth Rally Service in May. The splendid display of manual training shown in the library on Speech Day was supervised by Mr. Sturrock. The completion of one of the new tennis courts was the occasion for much rejoicing. The whole school were responsible for this concerted effort. i i i Our congratulations are extended to: Lieut, and Mrs. Taylor on the arrival of a daughter. Robin Young, who. made a successful showing in the scholarship examina- tions. [Page Five]
