20 The Analecta Halr irtury Schooldays!—What a host of vivid recollections rush into our minds at the mere mention of that magic word. Memories of close friendship, hard- work, escapades punished and unpunished. Memories not only of cheer¬ ing crowds of fellow students at games and sport meets, but of those days, when walking home with our books under our arms we were able to say: “I learned something today.” What graduate could ever forget the dances, the concerts, the banquets which colored our school life so brightly? The teachers,too, will be remembered, not only by their unselfishness in sacrificing time and energy for our advancement, but by their peculiar mannerisms. Each will stand forth in our minds and will be called by fond “nick-names” in after years. We who pass out of the doors of our beloved school do so with our courage bolstered by the feeling that we have something solid, something above value, behind us, backing us up, as it were, in all our endeavors. And so, to the school which has been so successful in every sphere of school life, and will, we hope, continue to be so for many years to come, we bid farewell! Ivan Smith.

The Analecta 21 THE HONORS OF CENTRAL HIGH Each year it is with the highest expectancy and the greatest interest that we await the announcement of the winners of the Bennett Scholar¬ ships. It is our fervent hope that the honors may fall upon some of our comrades in Central High. These scholarships were first offered in 1922. Since that time twenty-eight of them have been awarded. Of these, Cen¬ tral High may boast of having fourteen won by her students. Central may claim even more honor when it is understood that this competition is open to all the students in the High schools in Calgary and that only half the scholarships have been won by students in High schools other than [ Central. This indeed is a credit to our school and an honor much to be ! coveted by any school. To win such a scholarship a student must obtain the highest average mark on the June exams. For this reason not only are these students to be applauded, but also the teachers who, by their fine imparting of knowledge, were able to make it possible for the students to win such distinction, are to be strongly commended. The following Bennett scholarships have been won by students of Cen¬ tral High School: 1922— Grade XI—Donald Simmons; Lesley Lillian Calder. Grade XII—Marshall Edward Manning. 1923— Grade XI—George Stanley. Grade XII—Lesley Lillian Calder. 1924— Grade XI—Wilbur B. Chellis. Grade XII—Isabel Landels. 1926— Grade XI—Arthur R. Cragg. 1927— Grade XI—Alfred Stiernotte; Patricia Parker. Grade XII—William P. Taylor. 1928— Grade XII—Alfred Stiernotte; Patricia Parker. 1929— Grade XI—Margaret Agnes Smith. A matter of more general interest is called to our mind. It is that of the recent results of the June, 1929, examinations. We are informed that of the 114 diplomas awarded in Grades XI and XII of Central High School for Normal and Matriculation courses, 34 were honor diplomas. Another banner added to the flagstaff of Central High! To those obtaining dip-
