THE LIFE AND LETTERS OF FOUR DEE A form With lots of spirit is 4D, A better class of studes you'd never see, As field day found our form well out in front Thanks to the careful training by Mr. Hunt. But the promised chocolates were so long in coming We thought we'd wasted all our efforts running. So eager are some students that at noon If they do happen to arrive too soon And find themselves locked out and Wish to study, They simply thro' the transom force their body. 'Tis not long after we've all gained admission 'Till Art assumes his antic disposition, He has a seat constructed with such science ,That it collapses under slight appliance, As outwardly he smiles with affectation That these his efforts meet with acclamation. But as for Dodge, a man of high-jump fame, Our teacher says his nature suits his name. And so sans more ado We will present to you The characters that one may see VVithin the walls of old 4D. Dunc Tullis-Oh, cursed spite that ever I was born to go to school. Phillis BradyE Come round and see me sometime. Arthur Wilson-My Frances doth study at Kingston, Oh bring back my Frances to me. Heartsick Art, leader of the Garlic Squad, is a dance convener, advertising manager, etc. Bernice Cowan-If basketball were a key to studies, I'd be be- yond the farthest door e'er now. Charles Bartlett-Collector of excused slips Cdon't call me a lyrej and Walking tickets. Harry Guest-is the cause of Mr. Doxsee's Worries. Gus sees red every time. V Lyle Scott-4D's contribution to the ladies?-He also warms a seat in 4C. Jean Anderson- Strong men have run for miles and miles Whenever little Jeanie smiles. QThat's what Mr. Fyffe thinksj. Forbes W. R. Cavanaugh-the original heart-breaker, eX-presi- dent of the Stooges' Council, Mr. Hunt's private secretary, etc. Wilmotte White-4D's Lady of the Frozen Lakes. Lloyd Grant-Another 4D sheik, but he doesn't spend any more time there than he can help. Bob Husband-Bob shines in scholastics. Irene BrownMThe big threat to the 4C girls. Garry Nelson-Her heart's elsewhere, at the end of Albert Street South-fortunate Campion. 52

1. Ti-TE LIFE AND LETTERS OF FOUR DEE The Life and Letters of Four Dee which gives promise of being one of the finest works of its kind, is rapidly nearing completion, and should be of the press very shortly. This new work is quite novel. It is being issued in forty volumes, each member of Four Dee having compiled, figuratively speaking, during his four years at Central the contents of one volume. Each book is, in truth, a record of experiences, activities and thoughts of the author, and a measuring stick of his intellectual and social development. Progress may be traced as one turns over the pages of eachcvolume. The contents of these books should be of great value to the authors both now and in the years to come. The effort, time, and personality which each has put into his autobiography should assure to him satisfaction and inspiration in the years to come. Each author, indeed, will be the recipient of a royalty which, though not rated in dollars and cents, will enhance his capacity to render finer service and enjoy a fuller life. Glancing over the table of contents of each volume, one notices that the books vary substantially in content. Some have laid greater emphasis, for instance on Science, from these should come some of our leading doctors, dentists or research chemists. Some have devoted a large section of their books to English, history, and public speaking, law, politics and journalism will no doubt receive a contribution from these. Other have apparently had in mind the engineer or the actuary, since they have placed mathematics Brst in the books compiled by them Again some members of Four Dee have made worthy contributions in athletics which will doubtless afford them a life-long interest. Two helpful and inspiring chapters have been contributed by members of Four Dee who served in the capacity of president of the Students' Council. Indeed, every phase of school activity has been well written and illustrated in The Life and Letters of Four Deef' One of the finest chapters in each volume of this unique set of books might be entitled: My Central Friends. Perhaps no section will live longer in memory or yield greater satisfaction than this. In the light of developing experiences at College or elsewhere, each book will require frequent and progressive revision to keep abreast of the advancing thought and widening horizon of the author. The dead-line for copy for the present edition is June 30th. Our sincere hope is that each volume may be considered Worthy of publication and that The Life and Letters of Four Dee will be complete in Forty Volumes.
