AU REVOIR TO MISS SPENCE MARGARET SMYTH, 45: EIGHT years ago, at the opening of Eastern Commerce, Miss Margar- etta Spence was one of the few who had the distinction of being a mem- ber of the first teaching staff. Her task was that of teaching the ever- fascinating French language and also English literature and composition. In 1929 she was granted a leave of absence so that she might study abroad, under the Ontario government scholarship she had won. We were happy to have her return the follow- ing year and enjoyed immensely the interesting tales of her trip, which she was always willing to relate. Now Miss Spence has gone, not to return, except, perhaps, as a visitor in the distant future. But we realize that our loss was another's gain, for last March 25, in Knox Chapel, Miss Spence became the bride of Mr. Ly- man Drake, Jr. nuptial festivities, left for Chicago reside. After the usual the happy couple where they now Miss Spence's favorite author is Galsworthy, while Noel Coward, as a MISS SPENCE playwright, also gained her admira- tion. When asked what incidents or experiences she liked best while at Eastern, Miss Spence said that she very much enjoyed her association with the Girls' Club, and that she had a lovely time at the school dances. Her memories of Eastern Commerce, she told us, would always bring a great deal of happiness, and to every student and teacher she wished the best of success for the future.

Five years have passed during which it has developed from a small club into one of the most active organizations of its kind in the province. In reviewing the activities for the past year we find that much has been accomplished, both in material ad- vancement, and in the bringing together of old friends. At the busi- ness meeting last October the general elections for the year were held, and while there was no extensive change in the executive, a number of new members came on to represent the graduates of the two previous years. While the executive can work in perfect harmony for the advancement of the association, and yet be com- posed of members, some of whom have graduated six years previous to others. we need have no fear for the future of the Alumni. The program since then has included one meeting each month in which we have at- tempted to present something not only entertaining but educational. The year 1932-33 marks the form- ing of the Alumni Literary Society under the jurisdiction of Mr. Woods, Fourteen head of the Dramatic Department at the school. Although this society has only been organized for a few months it has already proved a real success. An opportunity to see just what has been accomplished will be afforded at our April meeting when the group present their first play, entitled Dear Departed . On March 3 nearly three hundred members and friends joined together at our Annual Ball, held in the Crystal Ball Room of the King Ed- ward Hotel. Dancing to the strains of Luigi Romanelli's orchestra in the lovely decorated room, brought forth the oft-repeated remark that this was the finest dance we ever held. A number of novelty dances besides the entertainment completed the enjoy- able evening. Thus, on looking back at what has been accomplished in the past, it would seem that the future holds much for this association. Success, however, depends upon the individual efforts of present members and those who will be eligible for membership in years to come. Let's try being boosters of an organization that has already proved its worth so that in 1938 it may be said that the second five years have been just as successful as the first. EASTERN ECHO
