D. M.C. I. BREEZES 5 ITH much hesitation and misgiving we, the editors, have sent this one and only edition of the “Breezes” for the term 1930-1931 to press. Surely this is a very auspicious occasion, it being the fortieth birthday of the Collegiate magazine. Fortieth? Yes, way back in 1891 “Breezes” was organized. True, it has not been known throughout its entire life by that appellation. During the Great War it was published as “The Optimist” and for several years appeared as the “Mercury.” However, in the hopes of further linking up the associations of the first Collegiate with the present one, it reverted to its original name. “Breezes.” On glancing through the annals of the Daniel McIntyre we find that our school, since its organization, has made startling and wonderful progress. In the year 1882 it had its beginning in the upper half of a residence on Louise Street, with Mr. J. B. Fawcett as its principal and. seven pupils as its entire enrollment. In the same year it removed to the Carlton School; but soon having an increase of forty-three pupils, larger accommodation was deemed necessary and the Central School was chosen as its new abode. Here, incidentally, the first woman student entered to take a Matriculation course, thus establishing a precedent in favor of the education of the weaker (?) sex. On the 12th day of February, 1892, the Central Collegiate on Kate Street was formally opened and with an enrollment now of three hundred and ninety- three students, here took up its residence and. here it remained until 1917. Then, once again facing the necessity of a larger structure, it removed to the Isaac Brock School. “The Optimist” of 1918 records the following item: “The year 1918 finds the Collegiate established in its new headquarters in the Isaac Brock School, one of the most beautiful buildings in Winnipeg and situated in most picturesque surroundings in the west-end.” Finally, in 1922, the Collegiate found a permanent home, we hope, within the walls of our own Daniel McIntyre Collegiate Institute, of which we are justly proud, a structure of great beauty, with spacious halls, cheery class¬ rooms, an excellent library, well equipped laboratories, Household Art and Science rooms, and an enrollment of twelve hundred, and fourteen students.
