The girls had a splendid volleyball team this term, being defeated only in the final game. We intend to do even better in basket- ball. Our Four S One-der public speaking club is really a wonder. tAsk Mr. Rowe.Q We have programmes in the auditorium every Fri- day, which are arranged by our committee. Our class has several High Society Mem- bers, who are: Winnie Kay, President of the Students' Council: Elsie Kearn. Secretary of the Students' Councilg Betty Swindlehurst. Editor-in-chief of the Echo: .Xlice Kerr. Pre- sident of the Girls' Athletic Club: Edna Muir, Secretary of the Girls' Club. FLASH! I I Due to the efforts of Mr. Woods and the splendid actresses in 4S1, we have presented Ninety-four NEWS three very successful plays. although the last one did turn out to be a farce instead of a drama. FLASH! FLASH! Mr. C. L. Rowe stated last Friday that he would like to get Winnifred Kay up on the stage in the auditorium acting the witches' cauldron scene from the play Macbeth , Common Rcmarks Oj TCtIL'lIt'I'S To -lS1: Mr. Powell: But thats getting away from the point. Miss Barrans: Use the little finger on the back spacer. Mr. Rowe: E--nun--ci--ate your words cl--ear--ly.'i Miss Atkin: Dont be lumps, now. Mr. C. R, Smith: What we are aiming for is accuracy. -PAT. GREENMVAY EASTERN ECHO FROM THE 4S2'S-102 Did you know there was such a form as 4S2? Most of the people around this school don't seem to be aware of this fact. As one of the girls was complaining. we're just neglected, pitifully neglected. They even for- get to send any heat up to our room. and then wonder why half the class, well. perhaps not quite half, but a good many of them are away from school with colds. I think the trouble is we're absolutely lost. invisible. un- der the huge pile of Commerce 8: Transporta- tion notes, bookkeeping sets, perfect copies. and endless other tasks the teachers seem to delight to throw on us. It really is a shame. and we feel we can't hold up much longer. so. if you see a class with wrinkled. furrowed brows, losing the rosy blush of youth, thats 4S2! We're not exceptionally bright. but as good as most of the other forms. I think one teacher expressed the opinion of all our teach- ers in saying. Youre a very likeable class, and lim very keen on you. We may not have many honour students tleave off the ni and you will be nearer the truthl but are we downhearted? After all. we did win the volleyball championship, and our pros- pects in basketball look very cheerful to us. so theres still some joy in life. Speaking of brightness, the girls certainly showed the boys up on the November re- ports, so the boys all obtained positions be- fore the Mid-year examinations, However, just as soon as the results were out, two of them came strolling in, and the other two will soon probably make their appearance. Well, we've filled up all the space we're allowed. so cheeriof -AIAUREEN Loaman NEWS OF 4GM As far as 4-G are concerned we have had a very successful t???l year. Several of our members-Marg. Fitt, Margaret Scott. Ruth Garlin, Roy Cotton. Mel. Norton, Don Potter, Bill Flynn, and Lorne Charleton, are on the Echo Staff, and Frank Woodrow is Treas- urer for the Students' Council. For some reason or other, we have the reputation of never letting Miss Atkin down. There is always someone who can kindle the spark of knowledge. Miss Barrans is very disappointed in our EASTERN ECHO typing. but well do or die. Before we make the grade. we shall probably die. We had all come to the conclusion that the depression was over. A few weeks ago Marg, Scott treated herself to a new refill, but by the time she had settled her debts there were about four sheets left. Now we are back in the same old rut-refusing to lend any more paper. We will soon be able to say that we are graduates of the Eastern High School of Com- merce. We have had an enjoyable four years' stay here, but are looking forward to the time when we are to have our place in the busi- ness world. We thank all the teachers who have so patiently laboured to teach us the rudiments of business. and may we ever be a credit to them. When we look back may we never regret that we chose Eastern Commerce as the starting place of our business career. sELs1E ANDERSON. RE-ECHOES FROM 3A Three A is heartbroken, and the examina- tion results are not the cause. To be very frank. we are ashamed. Our Mr. W'm. Parr has failed to knit his usual number of squares for the Girls' Club and when we asked the reason he replied. because I don't know how. Pal. ln school sports, SA has been rather dull, in fact I might even say out. All the boys were enthusiastic over our rugby prospects but the schedule disappeared like powder on a girls nose. In football we were deeply hu- miliated at being eliminated by ZD, but were consoled when three overtime periods were necessary for 4G to defeat 2D. Our last hope for school supremacy is baseball and it is in this sport we believe we shall excel be- cause we have a couple of Hubbells, and Gehrigs in the class. Three A is extremely proud of its Public Speaking Club and Class Paper, both of which are under the direction of Mr. Car- son. The Speaking Club is presided over b B. Rhodes and the Paper is edited by Telfer. Both proved themselves worthy of the class's confidence in them. -ROBERT G. VICKERS BCM NEWS-FLASHES We are a combined form of girls' account- ancy and merchandising. We are very en- Ninety-Hue thusiastic about our various sports-although we've won no honours, but received loads of fun and lots of punishment. tBoth the boys and girls.: WE NEVER SAY DIE! We'll show our worth in the coming volleyball gamesf If We shine in our debates-and do we ever get laughslff tYou never saw such a class for argttingl. We have detentions galore-all because of our noisy chatter, gossiping, and giggling-fof which each teacher is complaining. One of our many highlights is that of the SILVER CL'I ', that is proudly displayed in our room. The girls of SCM beat the stenc- graphy classes in a typing contest-although we have half their periods in typing. Not so bad for a noisy class. Being editor of the gossip, I think a little of same is not out of place, so here goes: Is Deannie really interested in ALL 3 A? -SYLVIA SEGAL HIGHLIGHTS OF 3Sl Girls' Sports The Feminine section of 351 have not won any laurels in the realm of sport so far. hav- ing played through the volleyball series with- out capturing the championship, but we won't let the basketball crest slip through our fingers so easily. Boys' Sports The Boys were more fortunate in their Soccer games than the girls in their Volley- ball. They reached the finals and were de- feated by 4G after playing overtime, with a score of 2 to 1. Sofia! Events These have been many and all have been a decided success, We have had four parties. three at the home of Rose Over, and the other was a surprise t?J party on Eleanor Fleming. Even if everyone that was invited did not turn up, those who did enjoyed them- selves to their hearts' content. The 1956-37 class of SSI will long be re- membered in the annals of the Eastern High School of Commerce as a class that were al- ways ready for a good time, ucarlv always had their work done and who were good sports all the way through the game. I don't think that any more need be said. -RUTH KRAISMAN. FLASHES FROM 3S2 As you probably know, 352 is supposed to be THE third form, talthough we hear con- Ninety-six trary remarks. which we are beginning to be- lieve ourselvesl. We had a very good volley-ball team this year. under the capable supervision of Anne Matheson. We did. in fact. reach the semi- finals before we were defeated. Our basketball team is doing well too, for, so far, we have won all our games except one. which we tied. Our basketball captain is Betty Meikle. As to our aquatic results, four of our mem- bers are studying life-saving. and are trying to win their Bronze Medal. We also have within our four walls, the Tennis School Champs.. Margaret Wice and Bella Marnock. At Commencement, they re- ceived cups for this achievement. So, with these tit-bits of news ringing in your ears, we. the girls of 3SZ, sign off for another year. sjessna MCALISTER. 383 FORM NEWS Oullahan. Donaldson, Clayton.

During bookkeeping period, she was asked if she had brought a note and thinking she had been asked the next question answered: I haven't quite fin- ished writing it yet. An explanation, how- ever, smoothed matters over. We wonder what attraction lies in the audi- torium at 8.30 a.m. To a future Special 1, we leave one line of poetry which is especially apt when doing homework, The night is far spent. the day is at hand. -,IOSEPHINE WI.-XRNEY, SPECIAL TWO FORM NEWS How cha do!!

FLORENCE Ranroan TI-IE CO-OPERATIVE CLASS IN RETAIL MERCHANDISING People have more fun than anybodyf, IYith this idea in the back of their minds. a group of students and teachers got together to form the sixth Co-operative Class in Re- tail Merchandising. After careful thought ani' consideration, the personnel of the class wa decided upon and work commenced. Outside of solely scholastic endeavour, the chief work of the class was the organization of a Merchandising Club. and the organiza- tion and production of the Class's Annual Demonstration and Display. Both matters have been dealt with successfully. The Dis- play on February IS. was an unqualified success. Indirect and modern lighting was featured this year. Out of the large group who commenced the class, only Eda Davies. Freida McKenzie, -lean Scott, Paul C. Attallah and Earle S. Dillon remained to organize and produce the Display. I E.-tR1.E S. DILLON.

You ask why? You want to know? lYell the reason was that Harvey Porter of ZD was the one elected. Another feather in 2D's hat was the pre- sentation of the swimming cup to last year's best swimmer of Commerce. Ralph McCut- cheon of 2D was the winner. In the Honour standing Harvey Porter. mentioned before, received a standing of S4 to pass into second form. WE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW: lYho's the blonde, that strong, tall, and handsome Venn met?

At Volleyball we almost gained the top, but 2 G proved our lYaterloo. At Basketball we hope to be surpassed by none. We are glad to welcome Dorothy Parsons back to school again after a long period of illness. Owing to illness our form teacher, Miss Elliott, has been given leave of absence and Miss Hounsom has taken over her duties. PVC Should Like To Know Why- Ruth always walks along to Room 313.- We heard he was a rugby hero? Is that right, Ruth? The 4'Three Musketeers are always late for the penmanship and geography classes? Millie walks along the Danforth in the gen- eral direction of Greenwood every time we have first lunch period? Elaine wants to be promoted to 3S5 next year? She says it's because the room is on the first floor, but we think different. -YBIARY BANNER 302 WITH ZF IN Although we haven't done anything excep- tionally well in the field of sport or 'fwalked away with any championships fso farj we really do have our fun. However, our basket- ball team appears to be stepping Con each other's toesj along fairly well. One Hundred-two By the results of our current event read- ings, 2F seems to be unconscious of the world- ly doings, or perhaps there are more interest- ing things to occupy their minds. Our class paper, unfortunately, was not ready in time for the Erlm contest: however, this was not the fault of the editors. The contributions did not pour in-the many tal- ented members of the class appear to be too modest, but they are quite generous with their noise. After all is said and done, 2F is a swell class of girls. and as time staggers on so must ZF. +LILLI.-KN LLOYD. 2G FORM NEWS As we dream by the fire, the crumbling coals shift. and while the smoke curls upward a nebulous vision appears-Room 501 of E.H. SC. Through the mist we hear the voices of our fine teachers. They are. we reflect. gentle voices which have good cause, at times, to wax: vehement. The mist clears and we see a class of 40 young ladies. some working, some smiling, but most talking. They are a fine group of girls and harbour within their midst. many an honour student. In the field of sport they are most prom- ising, and all entrants conduct themselves in a fashion worthy of conimendation. Unfor- tunately we were unable to obtain the volley- ball championship, but it was a close game, and the best man always wins. However, we are after those basketball games. We are by no means devoid of vivid per- sonalities, and are proud to be the claimants of some very fine debating ability. One by one we recall the many sport and social activities of which our class has an in- tegral part. But now the vision fades. and we are forced to reluctantly close. So with sincerest thanks to all our teach-ers, 2G says, Au revoir. 'LYNN PARFETT. ZH FORM NEWS Our class paper, due last Christmas, is out at last. Maybe it was worth waiting for. but just wait until you see the results of the class paper contest! The volleyball team, captained by Mary Kavanagh, got as far as the semi-finals. but we hope to do better in basketball. The ZH volleyball team played the Tech, team.

B.A. fjfillfiplll TO THE STUDENTS OF EASTERN COMMERCE: It is well for us who are older in years not to forget that life con- tinually renews itself in the boys and girls of each generation, and that boys and girls always look out upon their world with hope and confidence, The world changes but slowly, the rules of the game remain much the same. Your comrades of yesterday, today and tomorrow who play the game according to the rules, who construct the future on the foundation of the past, can go forward with confidence that the men and women of your generation will maintain the traditions of the race to which you belong, and will make Canada a good country in which to live. You have my very best wishes for success in your task. W. KE.-KST. EASTERN ECHO Seven 5' 1A si ,PH 5 A in Q Q . , 1 4. .r ' 5 . . P, ' -i-P DFTPMJ I-uh i I i I I..

We feel that we have been very fortunate in securing suitable illustrations for the carrying out of this theme. We regret that. due to a previous ruling which barred Governor-General Tweedsmuir from contributing Uforeworrlsu to school magazines. we are unable to print a message written by His Excellency. We have the honour, however. of publishing a personal portrait of His Excellency. which was sent directly to the Iirlm. o NEW FEATURES We have endeavoured to introduce several new features in the 1937 issue of the Echo. Two new departments, the Music Depart- ment and the Photography Department, have been established, and we hope that they will meet with success. Another change is the division of the Literary Department into two groups-fSenior and junior. The size of the magazine has been in- creased to 8 by ll , and the number of pages has been increased from 104 to 120. We hope that these new features will add Ten to your enjoyment of your school magazine. Also. we wish to take this opportunity of thanking all e teachers and students - who have contributed to whatever success volume nine of the Efzsferlz Echo! achieves. 0 EASTERN COMMERCE Our school is growing steadily. This year. it was found necessary to add two portables. as well as several other forms. In all. there are twenty-one Firsts, eleven Seconds. seven Tbirds. three Fourths, three Specials and one Co-operative Merchandising Class. The total enrolment in September, 1936, was l.961. 0 STAFF CHANGES Several changes have been made in our teaching staff since last term. The new ad- ditions are as follows: Miss Pinchin. from Runnymede Collegiate Institute: Miss Thatcher. from the Ontario College of Edu- cation: Mr. Rae, from Jarvis Collegiate In- stitute. These teachers. although they have been with us but a short time, have proved them- selves to be very popular, and we hope that they will enjoy being members of the staff of Eastern Commerce. EASTERN ECI-IQ A very popular member of the teaching staff left us at the end of june, when Miss Ker was married to Mr. Egerton Ryerson Young. Also. we regret that Miss Elliott has been unable to be with us since last October because of illness. but we have been fortunate to have Miss Hounsom with us during that time. 0 ECHO STAFF Several members of the Echo Staff have been employed since September. We feel that they should be given some recognition fo: their part in the work of the Echo. The former members of the Echo Staff were:fA Lillian Challis. Exchange Editor: Lorne Charleton. Humour Editor: Crawford jones. Literary Editor: Douglas Lancaster, Short Story Editor: Lucy Reuhens. Assistant Art Editor. 0 IN MEMORIAM Since the last publication of the Ifclm, the deaths of two line students. Marie O'Connor, of 3C, and Winnifred Bell. of IK. have occurred. We wish to extend our deepest sympathy to the families and friends of these young girls. in their recent loss, 0 THE EDITORS' CONVENTION On Friday and Saturday, November oth. and 7th., five members of our Echo stag at- tended the eleventh annual convention of high school editors of Ontario. This convention was held under the auspices of Sigma Phi Fraternity of the University of Toronto, and was conducted in a most satisfactory fashion, We were addressed by many well-known people engaged in magazine work upon such topics as Paper and Type Faces, Binding. Ad- vertising and Circulation, Art, Photography and Make-up of Magazines. These lectures were very entertaining, as well as instructive. We were able to learn still more by visit- ing the Daily Star, Macleans and Brigdens, Limited. EASTERN ECHO In the evening, a banquet and dance was held, which gave those who attended an op- portunity of becoming better acquainted with their fellow editors. Although the convention is over, the facts which were learned there are still impressed upon our minds. and we hope that they have enabled us to turn out a school magazine which meets with your approval. 0 A RENOWNED PHYSIOLOGIST john james Rickard Macleod, MB.. Ch.B.. D.Sc.. Ll.D.. F.R.C.P.. F,R.S.. Regius Profes- sor of Physiology in the Cniversity of Aber- deen, who died at his residence in Aberdeen on loth March. 1935. gave distinction to the Cniversity of Toronto and to the City of Toronto. The Eastern High School of Commerce congratulates The Aberdeen Grammar School in numbering among its distinguished graduates a gentleman of such refinement: a scholar of such kindness: a scientist of such distTnction. He was known among us in Toronto for his quiet manner. for his genius as an organizer. and for his confidence in the pos- sibility of development in Canada. The discovery of insulin was the result of ardent co-operation in constructive re- search , In this co-operation young Canadians obtained distinction. Dr. Macleod added to that which he had already secured, As a man. he had a rare capacity for friendship. He was kind and thoughtful. His high mind gave him a pre-eminence enjoyed by few. In a country. relatively new, men of genius have rare opportunities. They give a push in beginnings. They start the new land by in- spiring its people with the results of tradition and culture. This is the gift of men like the distinguished Aberdonian to Canada and to Canadians: and Canadians dare to believe that in time they will justify by their con- tribution the confidence of men who have brought the culture, the tradition and the hopes of other lands, particularly to other parts of the British Empire, to the Dominion of Canada. W. G. FRIsBv Eleven MR. JAMES CUNNINGHAM Among the guests at the Commencement Exercises of this school year was a Scotsman, Mr. james Cunningham. He was quit-e ill on the night he attended and he did not live long after. Perhaps it was a Scotsman's love of learn- ing which made him take such an active part in the Workers' Educational Association. of which he was the President for Toronto. He had a mind nicely-balanced, a quiet and un- obtrusive manner. a genuine love of the high- est. and a belief in those who toil and in the possibility of their cultural accomplish- ment. Mr. Cunningham was a member of the Advisory Vocational Committee, to which he brought a wide interest and a quiet belief in the benefit secured from attention to educa- tion, W. G. FRISBY 0 EARNING A LIVING Earning a living is dull to those who know not how, who are compelled to work solely under direction without being sufficiently master of their tasks to stand above them. The securing of skills is an element in culture. The effort is refining. The accom- plishment leads to pleasant participation in work. The more highly one is skilled, the freer is his mind for creative occupation. We rise by means of our skills to that which requires greater skill for its expression. W. G. FRISBY 0 CGNGRATULATIONS Miss Winnifred Kay certainly deserves credit for the splendid record she has es- tablished during her stay at Eastern Com- merce. When she was in IM, Winnie obtained S7- in her Mid-year examinations, which was very remarkable. Twelve Mr. Keast was very much impressed and called the young lady to the office in order that he might have a look at this clever student, much to the confusion of Winnie, who wondered how her name had got into the black book . She was an honour student also in her Second and Third years: and in her Fourth year she climbed to 90 . This is the first time in eleven years that 90:5 has been obtained in the Fourth year. Not only is Miss Kay diligent in her studies. She is very active on class volleyball and basketball teams. She can always be de- pended on to take part in outside activities and is always ready to assist in anv way possible. ' Her popularity was proved by her election to be President of the Students' Council. It is an honour which Miss Kay deserves, and it certainly is evident that her often numerous duties as President of the Council, have not interfered with her own work. Eastern Commerce is proud to have Miss Winnifred Kay as one of its students. EASTERN ECHO ECHO CONTESTS The division of our literary material this year into senior and junior departments ap- proximately doubled our contests. and ad- ditional recognition to contributors was given by the awarding of hrst and second prizes in most contests. All contests were judged by five judges, in most cases including three teachers and two students. and awards were made entirely upon a basis of total points as indicated by the decision of individual judges. In several cases the judges were very critical of the careless set-up of material sub- mitted. but in general we feel that the entries reveal evidence of promising ability. The Echo hopes that next year the response to the contests may be more general. Our cover this year was designed by Don. Potter of 4M. There were several very fine entries in this contest. and honorable mention certainly is due the following: G. Altpeter. 4G: M. Kelleher, IB: l, Nightin- gale. ZF, and M. Saunders, -lG. The Senior Essay Contest required the opinions of seven judges before the hrst award was tinally made to Ruth Kraisman, 351, and the second award to Edna George, 351, Yery close competition was provided here by Elsie Anderson, 4G, and Olive Kay. 451. The Senior Short Story award went to Alex. Gillies, 351: the second award going to Ruth Garlin, 4G. and honorable mention to Madeline Mason. 3C. The Poetry Contest was an open contest. and the Senior School regained its leadership here with the first award being made to Dorothy Sigmund, Special One. and the second award to Olive Kay. 451. Honorable mention was earned by Ruth Crook. ZF. and Helen Bradshaw. Special One. The judges were especially interested in the quality of the entries for the junior Essay Contest, which gives detinite promise of better things for next year. Here the hrst award went to Donna Kilpatrick, ZC. and the second award to Dick Ritchie. ZC. The points were considerably scattered by the judges in this contest, and honorable mention must be made of the entries of Verna Smith, 2F: Elsie Hill, ZH: and Marybelle Mullan, ZH EASTERN ECHO The junior Short Story award was made to Marguerite Eide, ZH, and the second award to Douglas Boase. ZC. with honor- able mention being earned by Elsie Hill, ZH. Humour Contest awards were made to Bob Harvie, IG. twho, incidentally, has assisted the Echo greatly this year with his cartoon worklg Alex. Gillies. SSI. and George Reeder. 4G. Souvenir copies of the Echo also will be presented to the following win- ners of the Poster Contest: Marian Wang- land. 451: Mona O'Hearn. SSS: Lillian Roberts, IA: Kathleen Wilson. ZG. and Mel- vin Norton. -lG. The Echo will sponsor similar contests next year. and expects more and better entries. We really do believe that there is sure to be literary talent among nearly two thousand young people. and the chief pur- pose of these contests is to uncover that talent. And. just a word of advice-do not attempt only dramatic and tragic themes. You will notice that our senior short stories have a very pronounced sense of the tears in things , although Gillies also did reveal a sense of humour. It is likely that you will do your best work when writing sincerely of your own experiences, Some literary material published was not entered in contests. and the Echo Staff re- grets that it has not space to publish more. The Class Paper Contests did not draw so many entries as we had expected, but the Senior Contest certainly did provide a problem for the judges. Once more we had to call upon seven judges. and even then Spicy Bits, 351: 35-Vs Cl01'0IIllfi01I Special, and .elcfal .Yf:.rtru, SSS. were left exactly tied. The 5A E.rq11.'rc was also a close competitor. ZH's Echo Jznzior, in the Second Year Con- test. won a clear decision over ZC's Echo- rllr and The ZA Esquire. School Daze by IK was awarded first place in the First Year Contest, with close competition being pro- vided by ll'lE' IA ClfI1lIIlIFl'4'f Chong and T115 Gale by 1L. May we suggest to the first year editors that they try to produce more original literary material and lessfindeed much less-very personal gossip . Thanks, entrants and judges. and we are sorry that the Echo has space for only a really limited amount of the material that has been available.

Albert Frederick Arthur George. 15th. Duke of York, and second son of George Y. known chiefly for his interest in welfare work and frank efforts to be friends with labour leaders. had succeeded to the British throne vacated by Edward VIII. On December 10th. last, George VI re- luctantly but proudly became Kilitll 5hYlY his wife became Queen. Let us learn something about their lives before either of them dreamed of ever becom- ing King or Queen of an Empire. The King has always worked in the in- terests of the common people: he has studied working conditions, and has done his best to improve them. For this reason he was called The Industrial Prince . Boys activities also interest him greatly. and he established a summer camp in Kent which is attended by the sons of workers. He never misses a year in visiting this camp. and pays the costs of running it himself. During the War, he served in the Navy under the name of Mr. Johnson. Never was he accorded any favours or preferences over his shipmatesg in fact. many of them did not even know there was a Prince in their midst, He would work in the black holds of the colliers during coaling, and would lend a hand with the slings when time was scarce. He took part in the famous naval battle of Jutland and was commended for his cool- ness under fire. lt is hard to imagine our King thus shar- ing the perils of the common people, but now, after working and striving with them, how well he must understand his people. Worse for him than battle hazards was the physical defect of stammering. He was also very shy and nervous and extremely disliked appearing in public. However. he never shirk- ed a speech or disappointed his public. and by sheer perseverance and courage he over- came these defects. It had been a long hard uphill fight. but finally he achieved success. The King is a very good dancer, and an EASTERN ECHO ,I fi by XYINNIFRED KAY, 451 expert tennis player. having taken part in several tournaments at Wimbledon. On April. 26. 1923. as Duke of York. he married Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, the fourth daughter of the Earl of Strathmore. the head of an ancient Scottish family, which has played a considerable part in history. Their ancestral home is Glamis Castle, con- nected with which are such names as Bonny Prince Charlie , Mary. Queen of Scots, and Lord Macbeth. Here in this delightful old home, Lady Bowes-Lyon and her favourite brother. David. played about in the great rooms and long corridors. and tended to their many pets. She led a normal. happy life, and therefore has grown up to be possessed of such virtues as radiant friendliness. unassuming intelligence. and robust strength of character. The two children of the present King and Queen. Princess Elizabeth and Princess Mar- garet Rose. have won their way into the hearts of all the Empire. The palaces at Sandringham and Balmoral will resume the aspect they wore under his late Majesty, King George Y, and the courts there, as well as in London, will be quiet and, dignified they have been since the days of Victoria. The new Kings first accomplish- ment-eand it would be hard to imagine a !l'Glllt'l'7lS to resume. as though there had been no break, the same scale of the life which has characterized the British Throne for 'i hundred years. Together this King and Queen will rule with many of the qualities which made King George and Queen Mary revered, thus strengening the bond of affection 'for the Crown which has become one of the strongest bonds between the nations of the Empire. At the time of his Accession, the King closed his speech by quoting his late fathers Silver Jubilee message and beginning what we hope will be a long and successful reign: f'My wife and I dedicate ourselves for all time to your service, and we pray God may give us guidance and strength to follow the path that lies before us. t'God Save the King! Fifteen KHIHIFJIV uv 7114 Tumvzln Slur 1f'c.v1'1111'11.vfw' Jbbej' 5ix,ee,, EASTERN ECHO ' ' by ELSIE KEARN, 451 The merry peal of bells and the discharge of artillery in Hyde Park and from various ships stationed in the Thames River usher in this great day of days-the crowning of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth. Cheering crowds line the streets of gaily- decorated London from Westminster Abbey to Buckingham Palace, which is the route the royal procession takes. Now there is a great swelling cry as a beautiful golden coach drawn by six cream-coloured horses. moves slowly and with great dignity between the lines of wildly excited people. People looking down from flats and apart- ments - people from foreign lands f people who have never before witnessed such a glori- ous pageant and who probably never will again, all of these have come many miles across oceans and continents and at great cost to see this ceremony that has been a part of Merry Old England since the time of Wil- liam the Conqueror. Now the coach has reached the Abbey door: the King in his crimson robe, accompanied by the Queen, descends to the Abbey, which has meanwhile been filled by the nobility and peers of all the countries of the world. Upon their entrance everyone rises and the trumpets strike up the National Anthem. His Majesty, having taken his seat on the Chair of State, bows first to the members of the Royal family and then to the foreign ministers. The religious ceremonial of the Coronation is more splendid and elaborate in England than in any other country of Europe, being so faithfully founded on former historic events. The anointing of his Majesty, which has been continued for upwards of a thousand years, takes place after the signing of the oath, the King being seated in King Edwards chair and four Knights of the Garter hold- ing over him a rich pall of cloth-of-gold. The Dean of Westminster pours some of the Holy Oil from the Ampulla ta vessel shaped like a golden eaglel into the Spoon. and the Archbishop then anoints the King in the form of a cross on the crown of his head, on his breast, and on the palms of both hands. The Sword of State has been girded on him prior to the coronation. His heels are touched with the Golden Spurs just before the crown- ing, and during the ceremony he is invested with several robes and takes the Orb. Other regalia used in the service are the bracelets. sceptres. crowns and swords. The Queen. however. is anointed only on the head. and she is not called upon to take the Orb nor be invested with special robes like the King. Four duchesses hold over her head a pall of cloth-of-gold. According to custom, the Pearl Sword. car- ried by the Lord Mayor of London, is pre- sented tat the city's western boundaryl to the King who touches its hilt and returns it to the Chief Magistrate. The Lord Mayor then mounts and carries the Sword of State before their Majesties. This is one of the most ancient privileges in the greatest of the worlds cities. The King and Queen. now King George YI and Queen Elizabeth, leave the Abbey by the west door, His Majesty now in a purple robe, and take the return procession along Victoria Embankment, up Northumberland through Trafalgar Square, Pall Mall. St. james Street. Piccadilly Circus. Regent Street, Oxford Street, Park Lane. Constitution Hill and home to Buckingham Palace, where their duties will begin.

It is in two sizes and in both silver and gold. The medal bears the heads of Their Majesties King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, Eighteen EASTERN ECHO The Crown Jewels If the person who said, L'neasy lies the head that wears a crown, were thinking of the British Crown, he spoke a great truth. For the Imperial Crown. originally made for Queen Yictorias corcnation, weighs no less than three and one-half pounds. The chief jewels in it were taken from older crowns and from the Royal collection. The most famous jewel in the Crown is the Great Ruby. Since it was presented to the Black Prince in 1367, it has had an event- ful history. In 1415 it was worn by Henry Y in the coronet which encircled his helmet at the battle of Agincourt. After the battle it was found that a piece had been chipped from it. .VX tremendous blow. aimed at the King. had been turned aside by the ruby. Follow- ing is a list of the jewels in the Imperial Crown: 2,800 diamonds, 377 pearls, 17 sap- phires, ll emeralds and S rubies--a collec- tion which would make anyone forget. Tl10ll shalt not covet. .-Xt the Coronation, Queen Elizabeth will be crowned with the Queen Consort's crown -a golden circlet set with precious stones. The Queen Mothers crown has set in the front of it the famous diamond, The Koh-i- noor, or Mountain of Light. This stone has had a fateful history. Any man, so runs the prophecy, who wears it will be cursed with ill-luck. History records that no less than four Eastern rulers who wore it died a violent death. However, in 1840 the East India Company obtained possession of it and presented it to Queen Victoria, Prior to the actual ceremony of crowning, the Sword of State is girded on the Sove- reign. In the Regalia are three other swords -the sword of Mercy. which is blunt and unpointed: the Sword of Spiritual justice. which is slightly pointed, and the Sword of Temporal justice, which has a keen edge and a sharp point, emblematic of the sharpness and keenness of English justice. just before the King is crowned, his heels are touched with the Golden Spurs, which have no rowels on them. The consecrated oil with which the King is anointed is kept in the Ampulla or Golden EASTERN ECHO by OLIVE KAY, 451 Eagle. This is a vessel of gold in the shape of an eagle with wings out-stretched. The anointing spoon is also of gold, having a finely chased bowl, and in the handle are set four pearls. Four Sceptres will be used in the Corona- tion ceremonyfthe Royal Sceptre, with its cross of gold and jewels, which contains the largest drop-shaped diamond in the world: the Queens Sceptre, with the cross of gold and jewels. which dates back to the corona- tion of james Il, and was made especially for his consort, Mary of Modena: the Scep- tre with the Dove, which is borne in the Sovereigns left hand, and the Queens Scep- tre with the Dove. The emblems of sovereignty of the coun- tries of England. Ireland and Scotland are a pair of gold bracelets, first made for King Charles after the Restoration, .Ind then there are. in addition to all these wonders, the Orb of Gold. with a cross of jewelsg the smaller Orb of gold set with jew- els, which was made for Mary ll: the St. Edwards staff, which is a sceptre of gold. four feet, seven inches high, supposed, at one time, to have contained a portion of the true Cross: and the Queens Ivory Rod, mounted in gold and enamelled. Apart from the actual Regalia, but still a part of the Crown jewels, are several beau- tiful specimens of Royal plate, some of it as old as English Royalty, but some, in com- parison, quite modern-only two, three, or even four hundred years old. The Crown jewels are all kept in the Tow- er of London. heavily guarded. They are cov- ered by only a glass case, but any person who broke the glass would set the alarms all over the Tower ringing madly, Only one attempt to steal these treasures was even partially successful. In the eigh- teenth century, a Colonel Blood did succeed in making off with the jewels, but he was captured and executed. But more important, his loot was recovered, and relnains to-clay the outward sign of the majesty and splen- dor ol the British Crown. 7 Nineteen Lord T7C'66LllSll1IliI' Twenty EASTERN ECHO -i-ite GOVZTDOT-GZDZVGI ' IVe are living in times when every eye is turned upon the central figure of the greatest empire in existence today-the King. In the past year there have been many occurrences which have made the position of King of England an especially outstanding one, In Canada, we turn our eyes instinctively upon the only visible link between us and that great figure-the Governor-General4- the Kings Choice! The position of Governor-General is, with the changing times, increasing in difficulty. There are now so many more demands upon his ability, practical experience and wisdom. Radio, newspapers and the higher education of the common people and their increased knowledge and interest in the affairs of the government and country as a whole, all com- bine to change the position of Governor-Gem eral from a figure-head to that of a very ac- tive and responsible person. Fortunately for Canaria a man who mys- teriously possessed an assemblage of these qualities was found. He is no other than the beloved john Buchan, the admired and re- spected Lord Tweedsmuirf The Eastern High School of Commerce needs no introduction to John Buchan, the author. The English Department has surely exhausted every source of information regard- ing him. A glimpse at our library or at the current book reviews will again tell the story. Indeed his literary fame as a novelist, bio- grapher and essayist has almost obscured his merits as a poet. However, Lord Tweedsmuir is certainly not a bard of inferior quality for at twenty-three he was awarded the Newdi- gate prize for verse. Of his many poems. From the Pentlands, Looking North and South , is regarded as the finest work. The recent announcement of His Excellencys of- fer to establish an annual Tweedsmuir award for the best poem published in the Canadian Poetry Magazine is a notable event in Cana- dian literary development. .Xs a novelist he is probably best known to us. It is rather interesting to know how some of these came to be written. john Bu- chan had long cherished an affection for that elementary type of tale which Ameri- cans call the 'dime novel' and which we know as the 'shocker'. And again in his own words, f'During an illness last winter I ex- hausted my store of those aids to cheerful- EASTERN ECHO - I 1 by RUTH CARLIN, -XG ness and was driven to write one for my- self. That was how The Tlzirty-Nine Sfcpr came into existence. Since then there have been many more, But it is as a biographer that John Buchan will go down in history. He has left us some immortal and unexcelled works in: Sir llliltcz' Scot!! Oliver Cl'0HIIl't'H. .lIoniroxc, and Till' Kings Grace, Gwiijgt' V. In the preface to .lln11froxc, Lord Tweeds- niuir wrote: .lly aim liar flfllll fo prr'.u'1il tl grew! figzzrr in itx tzpprnprialf sctiiug ....

These biographies have fulfilled that aim :rod that earnest attempt to discover the truth has 'been appreciated by millions. The fact that. as -lohn Buchan, he turned his mind successfully to practical business as an active partner in the publishing house of Thomas Nelson and Sons, again shows the versatility of our Gtmvernor-General. This should endear him still further to the students of Eastern Commerce for obviously he has covered some, if not all, of the ground that we hope some dzty to be covering in the business world. To enumerate a few of his achievements, Lorfl Tweedsinuir has been to date: novelist, poet, administrator, adviser, publisher, par- liamentarian, lawyer, soldier. lecturer, sports- man, justice of the Peace for the County of Oxfordshire, and Curator of the Oxford t'ni- versity Chest. His accomplishments are seem- ingly endless. 'l'hus it is apparent that no previous Gov- to Canada more ernor-General has brought ability, practical experience and wisdom than exceedingly for- Lord Tweedsmuir. We are tunate in having him. It is to be hoped that he will remain with us just as long as he is willing, and that. as long as he remains, he may be appreciated to the extent that he deserves. As the Coronation draws nearer, may the students of the Eastern High School of Com- merce come to a fuller realization of the im- portance of the time in which they are living and may their reactions be in accordance.

First .-ltvtzrrlj When you are blissfully dancing in the arms of , . . someone, or listening lo some famous dance orchestra, do you ever stop to think of what music is and how it origina- ted? In the following five scenes I shall try to give you some idea of the origin of our modern music. First let me take you to Africa. It is night- time. The full moon is at its brightest. The deep. mysterious jungle is still. Great, yellow cats silently stalk their prey. Not a sound is heard. Suddenly, like a thunderbolt, out of the night, a dull thud is heard: then an- other and another, and, as each one is heard. the tempo becomes faster and faster. The shadow of a man leaps across the moon, We whirl around and before us we see a huge fire darting red, yellow and blue tongues of flame at us, but our gaze is rivetted on the figure of a man, sitting before a hollow drum. He lifts his hands and lets them fall on the top of the drum and that dull thud is heard again, this time with the patter of naked feet accompanying it. Our gaze darts back In the fire. The picture that springs up in front of us is one of breath-taking savagery. Black men, leaping wildly in the air, giving vent to wild shrieks, their eyes dilated, their bodies shining in the ghostly moonlight, the flames of the fire throwing weird shadows across their faces. their feet keeping time to the quickening rhythm of the tom-tom. Twenty-two Collecting our reeling senses. we begin to realize that we have just witnessed the birth of our modern jazz. Scene two is very brief and is laid in an English court of the early eighteenth century. Beautifully gowned ladies and gallant be- wigged gentlemen can be seen idly strolling around the spacious room or discussing the latest court gossip in groups, The court musi- cians take their seats. The couples take their places. The conductor lifts his baton and the lovely Minuet is begun. Although it is not a modern dance, it would indeed be a grave error not to mention it. Our next trip is to gay Vienna. We are ina large, beautifully decorated ballroom. Through the open window float strains of Johann Strauss's Beautiful Bitte Danube Waltzu, and to these same lovely strains. men and women glide gracefully across the dance floor in rhythm with its smooth-flowing mel- odv.

From one corner comes the pulsating music of the tango. No sooner is the first note heard than the garden is brightened with dancing couples, for the slow. throbbing tango is not to be resisted. The last stage of our trip takes us to Hun- CDLD ANNIEH tSf'nior E.f.ftI,X', Second .fIL't1l'Ifi She sat patiently on the corner, her lined. toil-worn face relaxed into a peaceful smile. The harsh glare of the street light revealed her deep wrinkles, sunken eyes and worn clothes. A stack of newspapers lay on the ground beside her. and yet her gnarled. mottled hands made no move to pick them up. People glanced curiously at her as they passed, but she did not seem to notice. Old Annie, that grand old lady of the news- stands, the darling of the newsboysfwas dead, For the past ten years Annie had sup- ported herself by selling newspapers. Every night at tive o'clock, punctual as clock-work. she had appeared on that corner, complete with her stack of papers. When the nights work was done, she gathered up the remain- ing newspapers. and swept off into the night, as mysteriously and silently as she had come. She was always dressed in sombre black, Her costume consisted of a voluminous skirt, which swept the dusty sidewalks, a woollen shawl, which covered her almost completely, a pair of high buttoned boots, and an old Salvation Army bonnet, perched rakishly at a defiant yet somehow pitiful angle on her EASTERN ECHO gary. We are in a gypsy camp. The sun is hanging low in the skies and the camp is bathed in a warm, yellow light. Laughing gypsy maidens stand in readiness for the eve- ning dance. The fiddlers raise their bows and draw them back in a slow. plaintive wail. The gypsy girls join hands and dance slowly around the fire in a circle, The music bright- ens: the dancers quicken their pace, their bracelets and ear-rings playing a gay accom- paniment. Gaily-coloured skirts swish around brown legs, Brown arms flung high above black curly heads. lips parted in a smile showing pearly-white teeth. flashing eyes that seem to Without music we would not be gypsiesf' So, out of mysterious Africa, sedate Eng- land. gay Yienna. romantic Spain and light- hearted Hungary come such songs as the St. Louis Blues , the Merry Widow Waltz .

She always carried an olfl black umbrella. the joints of which creaked rustily whenever it was opened.

She had a soft spot in her heart for a little newsboy named Jim- mie. a poor, half-starved urchin, who could barely manage his little batch of papers. lYith him she shared her corner, and every night they could be seen, the tall gaunt old lady, her fiery eyes sweeping over the crowd, and the little ragged boy, with eyes looking like saucers in his small, peaked face. No one knew where she lived, or whence she came. She became something of a fix- ture in the city, and she was proudly point- ed out to sight-seers and visitors. She took an almost childish delight in being the cen- tre of attraction, and enjoyed having her picture taken by curious tourists. For ten years now she had plied her trade on that busy corner. She always greeted me kindly, and chatted with me for a few min- utes each night. I came to regard her as a real friend. and looked forward to our night- ly meetings. Old Annie lies in state now, in a luxurious casket lined with satin. Yes. it is a costly Books as Magic Carpets Have you ever travelled in your imagina- tion to distant lands? Have you ever met strange people, queer customs and supersti- tions? Have you ever watched the sun set behind some isolated mountain, shedding its dying rays over the snows and staining them a deep crimson and gold, which gradually fades into a tender, pearly grey and finally into black nothingness? Have you-but I have asked enough. Of course not, you say. It is too expensive. I am too young. But you are not, my friends. I tell you, you can travel. You can watch the sun set in some distant land. You can cross the desert with an Eastern caravan, and at the end of your journey mix with the motley crowd of a glamorous, spicy market. How? Through books. Books are really. truly magic carpets, which, as a child, you dreamed of owning. They can take you to all parts of the world. into the homes of all classes of people, into Twenty-four coffin, donated by her old customers, and yet I cannot help thinking that she would have preferred a plain wooden one. without the trimmings. The room is heaped with flow- ers. and their heady scent hangs heavily in the air. People file by this coffin. people from all walks of life. Statesmen and scholars rub shoulders with thieves and beggars. All petty differences and quarrels are forgotten in the presence of this old lady. As for Jimmie? Well, he still Carries on, with a strained, bewildered look on his little face, as if he cannot understand what has happened. He eagerly scans the faces of the passers-by, and gazes hopefully at her corner, as though he expects her to re-appear in her old black garments, and smile kindly at him. Her stand on the corner is completely hid- den with wreaths. and men touch their hats as they go by. Truly, it is a fitting tribute to a gallant old lady who died, I believe, with a peaceful heart, secure in the knowledge that she had done her best to relieve a little of the pain and sorrow that abounds in this world.

The land of mystery, strange customs and religions: the land where old things are worshipped and new ones accept- ed reluctantly. Or Africa. the country of con- trasts? Hot dry days and then, before you can turn around, unceasing, drenching raing dense jungles, ending abruptly to run into flat'plains, with never a tree in sight. You have a passport to these, and more places. But perhaps you are more interested in romance. Tales of narrow, hair-breadth es- capes. Maybe you want to visit the world in the days when knighthood was in flower. Those romantic ages when glamour and col- our, dirt and squalor were intermingled in- discriminately. Books, however. have another purpose. They are for the comfort of sore and tired hearts, to create laughter when you are in EASTERN ECHO need of cheering up. and to satisfy the soul starved for beauty. In all these. they work their magic, bearing tired souls leagues away from their petty small sorrows and tempo- rarily, at least, banishing greater pains. Now please, if you are weary, or if you desire adventure without knowing just where to obtain it, or if you are tired of your own narrow life, mount your magic carpet and live.

The distinguished conductor comes forward from the wings of the stage, stands for a moment, bowing, in the glare of the spotlight, takes his place on the conductors stand, raises his baton, and slowly, the curtain rises on 'tThe Ballet Roses . The scene on the stage is that of a garden. The greenness of the leaves and the general atmosphere of the surroundings instinctively bring to mind thoughts of spring. The or- chestra begins to play, and, as the soft notes reach the stage, the make-believe earth be- gins to break and from the openings slowly rise the dancing girls, clothed in pink-petalled material, symbolizing a rosebud. Stepping gingerly and swaying unsteadily in all the un- certainty of early youth, they come forward slowly, of the Twenty-five to the front of the stage. With hesitant steps they dance around the garden. The music swells to a fuller tone, the lights become brighter and the dancers burst forth in a new glory. They are no longer the shy, budding bloom, but the full-grown rose in all the colour and beauty of a summer day. With the quickening tempo of the music the dancers whirl around in a fantasy of colour and grace. The tempo soars to a thrilling climaxfand breaks off abruptly. The dancers pause in bewiilderment. The orchestra strikes up again, but in a sadder. softer vein. The light begins to fade, The dancers slowly sink to the ground. The silken curtain is lowered and the audience breaks forth in loud and prolonged applause at the conclusion of The Ballet of the Roses .

How won- derful it was to step upon the magic carpet of Hans Anderson or Grimm and be immedi- ately whisked to the Land of Make Believe. There we had a glorious time with Snow White. Rose Red, Hansel and Gretchel, Beau- ty and the Beast, and the great Giants. To- day we do not believe in such childish fancies but want to visit other lands where the people are real and just as interesting. There seems to be one difficulty to overcome before we can travel and that is the financial problem, but why worry about that when we can visit many lands by walking to the library or bor- rowing books from our friends? Let us step upon the magic carpet of Rud- yard Kipling. and, through the pages of Kim, we see India. The first stopping place is La- hore. After wandering around we arrive at the old Ajaib-Gher, and there, seated upon the old Zam-Zammah is Kim.

What strange characters we have met! How strange their customs are to ours. Now our curiosity is so aroused that we want to see more of India. Kim can take tts no farther. but between the covers of other books are characters almost as interesting. From India let tts travel to the frozen north. No country appeals to my imagination more than our own northlands. There, is the ro- mance of bygone daysAthe fur trade, half- breeds. Indians, and, most of all, the red- Twenty-six coated Mounties.

We must step upon our carpet again and the stopping place is the fishing grounds of the deep-sea Nova Scotia fishermen. ln Cap- tains Courageous the whole process of fish- ing is clearly described. lt shows the perils and hardships the fishermen are forced to face so that we may have varieties of fish on our table. We step upon our magic carpet once more. and this time we are almost home, but let us stop for a moment with Mazo de la Roche at the home of the Whiteoaks. What more could one ask for in a book? The ups and downs of a family, the troubles, the family fights and arguments are all summed up in the word real . We are home once more, back to the wor- ries of school, examinations, and homework. Our magic carpet must be put away until we can find a few moments to travel again. EASTERN ECHO ,, A124 5 S, .lf 'V T, S TQ .x P , -:1- s j .1 Ii ., ' T pi H'I A ' Z..f - . '- ' Jfi - M -V -T-U .

Each house on the Fri-scent was it counterpart of its neighbour. for the breath of a metropolis had long since given each a coating of dirt. dust, smoke and grime. successfully hiding each trace of dif- ference and presenting a dreary sameness to the onlooker. Within the tiny compass of these houses. the Mctlows had spent the better part of their livesfif the comparative can be used in talking of anything so mono- tonously drab as the existence of the Blctlows, There were seven of them. When the in- habitants of the Crescent thought of the llctlows, they unconsciously graded them as Mrs. and Mr. Mctiow, ,linny and the kids . This arrangement is significant. Mrs, McGow had taken on the complexion of the house she dwelt in, her individuality drained dry of any personality, as if each succeeding child had taken a portion of her vitality for its own. After the tirst baby, McGow had called her Ma , and from then on that name placed her in a detinite niche of life as inescapable as death itself. Her name, Yirginia, unable to survive the obscur- ing process that was marriage, had been given to her first-born. But from the day a tired minister had sprinkled that name upon her protesting countenance. that girl had been known as jinny, In her own personal thoughts, however, she was Virginia. Yirginial In a small way that made up for an awkward figure. lifeless hair, poor teeth, and a sallow skin.

She hates .lin worse than a temperance societyu, he once brought out in a sudden burst of wit. This brilliant witticism became a classic in his limited repertoire. to be trotted forth whenever an occasion presented itself- and even more frequently. Blcliow was a weak, vacillating creature. lazy and vinrlictive. who worked off his grudge against the supremely indifferent world by bullying his helpless family, With characteristic stupidity he threw up his job as sweeper in a department store when his independence was threatened by hints from his superors that the quality of his work fell - lf!XXlf' X .1 ff .X - itttttfl my W- I ,X Thirty-one short of the standard expected by fussy and over-particular employers. Of course this was in 1930 when a depression was merely a low level between two hills. His wife said noth- ing. by which she established no precedentg but jinnys shoulders bowed a little more and the downward twist to her narrow lips became permanent. jinny earned 58,00 a week in Ernsteins Trouser Company, where she had worked as a pattern critter since she had left school. She was an efficient worker and was highly regarded by Ernstein himself, an affable jew, who constantly surprised people by treating his workers as human beings. Therefore, knowing jinny's future to be secure and with a light conscience as a result. jinny's father appropriated 7Sc of her meagre weekly earn- ings for tobacco After all, a man's got to have his smoke, don't he? , he told his wife reasonably and indignantly. To this unanswerable piece of logic. she was of course silent. That this meant jinny had to rise an hour earlier to walk to work. was of course unfortunate- but unavoidable. However, hlinny found that even this in- convenience had its compensations. Her daily pilgrimage led past the windows of the large department stores which displayed. with theatrical perfection, the latest in furniture and furnishings. Jinny found an absorbing interest in these inanimate beauties. Some- times, even in the middle of her perpetual Ethel M. Dell novel, she would find herself in the room she had seen that morning, handling the beautiful china, stroking with the hands of a lover the gleaming expanse of the table. feasting her eyes on the gleam of the silverware and caressing with delight the creamy softness of the linen. Then, with the cruelness of .1 physical blow, she would return to her surroundings, and, hastily, as an antidote. would lose herself once more in her vicarious romancings. Her favorite plan was refurnishing their own house. Drying the dishes at night, she would hold forth to her mother, brothers and sisters on the art of interior decorating, which they listened to as a sort of fairy tale. Not even the snores of their father from the bedroom disturbed them. So it went. McGow joined a Communist group and abused an uncaring government jinny still avidly the with a new set of catch-words, walked to work and watched Thirty-two changes in the window displays. One day she stopped short fo admire a beautiful din- ing-room suite 451.11900 - lOl down: balance in twelve equal monthly paymentsj. Though she unconsciously admired the whole. her real attention was rivetted on a beauti- ful pair of silver candlesticks that adorned the table. Although she could not feel it. to her subconscious mind they were a symbol of all her cravings, of her starved love for beauty now perverted into a passion for dead things of wood and glass and metal. Weeks afterwards she remembered vividly the slend- er intricacy of those Candlesticks. tall and gleaming. holding their tapering green candles. That night she described the dining-room to her family, but as an added feature she said. and, Ma, on our dining-room table we'll have candles, green candles, in tall holders. Not just candles. mind you. but green ones, in tall holders. Good Lord! Jinny. what for? . asked her mother. Ain't we got electricity? But jinny was finding something beauti- ful in the handleless cup she was drying and only smiled in answer. Meanwhile, in the morning, the winter wind grew more bitter. Jinny was saving for a winter coat, but her shabby tweed with its mangy collar must suffice a little longer. Now she hurried past the windows only darting glances at them. for bone and mar- row chilled if she lingered. But one morning the candlesticks, the same ones, were again part of a display, and breathless, jinny was compelled to stop. Heedless of the biting wind that moulded and permeated her frail body, she stood and gazed, drinking in each detail but always conscious of those two Candlesticks. like silver flames issuing from the smoky, glowing oak. Then. shivering and with teeth chattering, she hurried on. half-running, to make up for lost time. That night when she returned home, she still shivered although she had a hectic Hush on her cheeks. The next morning she couldnt talk, and, in spite of her fathers worried warnings, decided that it was impossible for her to drag her racked body to work, The doctor was considered. but that night, after a mustard plaster and hot lemonade. jinnys condition had improved and she assured her anxious parent that she would return to work on the morrow. Mrs. McGow attended to EASTERN Ecao her for the night. and jinny, suddenly gar- rulous, returned to her favorite subject -- furnishing the house. f'We'll breakfast sets, and bedroom suites. and din- have couches and armchairs. and ing-room suites. and velvet drapes. and silk curtains-and. ohf Ma.

Smiling, she snuggled lower into sleep. That night Mrs. McGow was awakened by loud. harsh, tearing, animal chokings from jinnys room. Her husband, irritable and confused. was helpless. Frantically. leav- ing him to watch, she ran for the doctor. He. however. with deep anger at their delay in calling him. was useless, Two hours later. in a cold wintry dawn, -Iinny died.

It seems rather unusual I must admit. Robert added thoughtfully. He has plenty of money now: Mother and Father would love to have him live with us, and you know Mother has said that he has developed a dangerous heart condition and should not live alone. But there certainly must be some reason for it. As they were packing, john Morgan, their uncle, entered the room. He was a fine dis- and tinguished-looking man, tall. broad erect.

There was only one bizarre note in this otherwise commonplace spectacle. Borrow- ing on the strength of the insurance money, Mrs. McGow had slipped out and returned with two tall silver Candlesticks and green candles. These she had placed at the head of her daughter. On the eve of the funeral she slipped in and lit them. To her kindly but curious neighbours' discreetly veiled questions. she only said in a small, clear voice-more awful than any paroxysm of grief -- jinny always wanted to have candles. For a moment her eyes were some- where else, and her voice was that of one repeating an echo. Not just candles. mind you. but green ones. in tall holders' As she ended. her voice was brittle and dry as if it might snap at any instant, and then it was replaced with the same un- natural calm, in which you could hear her heart breaking. And in the candles uncertain fluttering light. jinny looked almost beautiful. RUTH G.-XRLIN, 4G nearly white.

On closely observing his face, however. one noticed that it was rather drawn and had the pinched. pained look of one who had known suffer- ing. His eyes contained the vacant far- away look of a dreamer-of one who seem- ingly did not live entirely in this world. He advanced towards his young niece and nephew and smiled kindly upon them.

But .lean was more thoughtless. Why wont you come and live with us, lfncle john? , she asked, you surely don't like this lonely place. A pained look crept into John Morgan's eyes. Dont ever ask me that. child. It is sufficient for you to know that I never shall. I love this place: every thing about it has a sweet association, My only wish is that I may die here. That is why I shall never leave it. That was all he said-that was the most he had ever said. Robert motioned jean out of the room with the whispered explanation, I think he wants to be left alone . A few hours later they had made their adieus and were on the train speeding for the city. And a few hours later. the lonely hgure of John Morgan could have been seen walk- ing slowly along the shore which ran beside the sea a short distance from the Morgan estate, He stopped and looked around and saw nothing to his left but water, coldly reaching in, coldly sweeping out: nothing to his right but the cliff and the dunes beyond. Once more he sensed the horrible loneliness of it all, and his head dropped upon his breast, and his hand ran wearily through his hair. He stood thus for many minutes. Sudden- ly the familiar roar of the onrushing waters broke his troubled reverie. The tide! How many times had he heard it surging in, destroying everything in its path. And yet he had, in his perplexed state of mind. entirely forgotten that it ever existed. Would he, this time. be its victim? He turned and started climbing the cliff-the only way outAas if to escape his inevitable fate. He made his way slowly and painfully, his breath com- ing in short gasps for he realized that he must reach safety. A few scrub oaks up the side offered assistance. He clutched them, panting after the severe strain wrought upon his weakening heart and lay still for a moment. He struggled to raise himself, but the torturing pain and his increasingly dif- ficult breathing made this impossible, He Thirty-four realized that his last hour had come. He had just enough consciousness to realize where he wasfand to recall another, whose tragedy had so changed the course of his life. In- audibly his lips framed once again a few broken words: Elizabeth . . . Elizabeth . . . l'm so sorry . . . I havent been ashamed of you because you were crippled . . . not for a long time . . , never in my heart . . . Eliza- beth . . . l still loved you . . . and I never told you. It was a gay evening in june, 1904. There was music in the air and the beautiful spacious estate of John Morgan was alive with colour and laughter. Everyone was happy and especially so were john Morgan and Elizabeth Thompson, for it was the evening before their wedding and it was a huge garden party being given in their honour by the prospective bridegroonrs parents. Unexpectedly a cry arose above the cele- bratingklittle Robert Morgan, johns nephew and just a baby, had somehow managed to get through one of the garden gates and was in the centre of the road. Coming directly towards the spot was a carriage and two racing horses. It was quite evident that the man in the carriage was drunk. for he had no control over the horses, and to Elizabeth's shame and horror she recognized her own father. The baby, Robert. was standing help- lessly looking at the oncoming horses. Eliza- beth's mind was in a state of frenzy-her john's little nephew to be killed perhaps by her own father-and he was drunk---Oh, how could hefon the eve of her wedding too! With tears in her eyes she dashed forward through the gates, and, just as the horses were almost upon Robert, she clasped him in her arms and turned to carry him off - but she was too late-they were upon her- she could feel her strength leaving. and, with all she could muster, she threw the baby to- wards the edge of the road-she remembered no more, For months Elizabeth lay maimed and disfigured in her little room. At first -lohn came regularly but of course she did not know him. and then gradually his visits be- came less frequent, for he could not bear to see the girl who had once been so alive. now a helpless cripple, cut off from everything that had been so much a part of their lives. On the day that the doctor reported that Elizabeth would always be crippled. john was EASTERN ECHO there. He was terribly shocked and could not believe it. f'There must be some mistake! I can afford the best doctors. Something can be done - I'm sure of it. I won't believe this! He did have the best physicians, but the verdict was the same. Maybe. they said, that in time she would walk with the aid of a crutch and the scars would, in time, disap- pear. but that was all that could be ex- pected. Elizabeth nearly gave up hope at the news but somehow managed to keep her courage. but. when John apparently began to neglect her, she had nothing more to live for. Days passed into weeks and weeks into months. and she was walking now with a crutch. But that was harder to bear than just lying in bed all day. She became almost a recluse. She had not seen John for over a week and decided to go for a walk down near the estate-perhaps she would see him and talk things over with him. There was a dull pain in her heart as she thought of this, for she realized that she could no longer expect him to marry her. But if he wanted to break off their engagement permanently, at least he should have told her. This uncertainty was killing herfshe had a right to know. It was getting dark but still sufficiently light for her to see two tigures coming down the walk between an avenue of trees, One was a rather beautiful young girl, who was. although unknown to Elizabeth, a cousin of john Morgansg she was clinging eagerly to her escorts arm and smiling up happily into his face. Elizabeth looked at the young man -it was john! Her heart died within her at the sight, but she realized the hopelessness of it all, and with a heart-broken sob she departed as quickly as she could. As she was leaving she thought she heard her name-but it was probably her imagination. She was making for the cliff, her distraught mind was becoming calmer and colder-she was no longer afraid. Nothing mattered any more-john was gone forever. so she had nothing to live for-her family cared noth- ing for her, and she, although she had tried many times to feel differently, returned the feeling. She was a helpless cripple and could EASTERN ECHO do nothing for herself. She would always be a burden to some one. She was almost there now and was walk- ing slowly and with great difficulty. Finally, she stood at the top of the cliff a little be- wildered. She heard her name and looked back. It was John: then it had not been her imagination. Her mind racedghe pitied her. that was it, he was feeling sorry for her. But she did not Want his sympathy: she did not want anyones sympathy. A trembling overtook her whole body, but she shook it off and once more the deadly calm took possession of her. It was all over now. She heard john coming towards her: in desperation she advanced nearer the edge of the cliff. Without warning she could feel the edge of the cliff giving way beneath her feet. and then she felt herself falling. falling. down the side of the cliff only to be suddenly stopped by a few scrub oaks. Lifeless, her once lovely happy self. now free from pain and suffering. lay there, for ever still. john raced along until he came to a part of the cliff which was not so steep, and in his haste half fell down the side. But he finally arrived at the spot where Elizabeths body lay. As he looked upon the once beau- -iful face. now so changed by worry and suf- fering both mental and physical, his mind almost wandered. Half-distracted he picked up her body and somehow managed to carry her back muttering as he went: Elizabeth . . . Elizabeth . . . I'm so sorry. . . . I haven't been ashamed of you because you were crippled l . . not for a long time . . . never in my heart . . . Elizabeth. . . . I still loved you . . . and I never told you. At the far corner of a country churchyard near the old Morgan estate in M . . . , there are two little graves. And there are two small :stones on which are inscribed: Elizabeth Ann Thompson--only daughter of Emily Tucher and Neil Thompson. Born July 18. 1880 Died June 25. 1905 john Andrew Morgan-beloved son of May Dee-gan and Major O. E. Morgan Born Sept. 15, 1875 Died Aug. SO. 1920 Above these is written: In death were they united .

Sally's ambition was to star in musical comedies. t'Give her a great, big handfl he said. Mrs. Deane sat outside the glass-enclosed room with other anxious parents, next to a sad-eyed young man with a violin case and a painted girl who looked bored and said these amatchoor hours were getting lousy. But Mrs. Deane had no eyes for the young man or the painted girl. Sally had started to sing. Her voice rose ina happy lilt from the glass-enclosed room. Even the painted girl listened and the sad-eyed young man looked less sad. Then Sally danced, the rhythmic patter of her feet tapping out the tempo of the tune, The announcer was promising great things for Sally. The painted girl and the young man with the violin case had gone inside. Sally was being called back. Mrs. Deane smiled hap- pily, recalling the applause of the days when she sang and danced, but only in the chorus. For Sally she had visions of better things. There would be a star's dressing room and orchids and wealth and fame. But, the program was over now. Sally skipped at her mother's side, clasping a precious package in her hand. It was the gift she had won, and she remembered what the announcer had said about her becoming a great star one day. Sally's feet twinkled across a busy street. A horn sounded and tires screeched on dusty pavement: a thud, a rush of feet! Mrs. Thirty-six hy 3l.XDEl.INE Masox, 3C Deane knelt beside the child. Crowds ap- peared from nowhere.

First there are opera, symphonic and classical music, which are the best there are in this world. Secondly, there is popular music. which we hear by far the most every day on our radios. Opera music is appreciated most by people who understand it in all its ways: classical, a less serious style, is enjoyed by the average music lover: popular by the general public. Lately some men have created some t'stuff called jazz , which is as bad as the name itself. and it also sounds worse. It shows how much some people know of music when they applaud it on the radio. Jazz is not to be classed as music, but should be put aside as a curse to real musical appreci- keation. Radio has its good and bad programs. The following are worth your attention: Ford Sunday Evening Hour, General Motors Program, Metropolitan Opera Broadcast, Firestone Program, Cities Service Program, Philharmonic Symphony Program. SCHOOL 'YMUSIC NOTES The piano recitals at the school on Thurs- days in the first lunch period, have been a real treat. thanks to Mrs. Procunier, the pianist. It is very enjoyable to listen to the pieces selected in school hours, while we are relaxing from the mornings activities. The Girls? Chorus sang at the Commence- ment and the Christmas concert, and is under EASTERN ECHO the able leadership of Miss Howard. The Chorus gave two pleasing numbers at the Commencement, and sang with a very good harmonic tone. MUSIC MASTERS' SERIES J. SA11BRook, SA Those who love piano have been given a wonderful opgortunity this season at the Ea- ton .Xuditorium through the t'Music Masters' Series , consisting of five piano recitals by five world-famous pianists. Amid the refine- ment and stateliness of this magnificent audi- torium, and with music lovers surrounding one, it certainly makes such an event most effective and memorable. Our first enjoyable experience was in Oc- tober, when Harold Bauer. an English pian- ist, opened the series. It was quite notice- able that this musician was a scholar. His own re-arrangement of Handels suite, Over- ture , .-Xllemanden, Sarabande , Couran- te , t'Piece , and 'I-Xir varie . refreshened it and yet did not lessen our appreciation of Handel's skill. The last movement, Air va- rie- , was based on Handels famous UThe Harmonious Blacksmith . Schubert's 'fIm- promptu in A Flat and IJebussy's La Ca- thedral engloutieu were also sensational parts of his fine programme. At our second concert, in December, we heard A Giant of the Keyboard , the French pianist, Robert Casadesus. who showed great polish to his playing. His Schubert number, Papillons , exhibited his superb mastery of the piano. Scarlotti, Debussy, and Chopin were also represented in his programme. Our january concert brought us a surprise: Albert Hirsh, young American pianist of Thirty-seven A i 1 I u . I . ! 2 i . u 1 E H I 3 about twenty-one. Tall, informal and care- free in manner, he gave us a programme re- presenting all types in classics,-Sonatas. Etudes. Preludes, and 'Story Sketches. His style and technique made the compositions of Griffes, Ravel, and Debussy most realistic. Mozarts Sonata in F Major was done with its simple style and Scriabine-'s Three Etud- es suited this type of pianist who rendered them with sympathetic interpretation. With all the delight we received from the performance of these three artists, we were. in reality, waiting for the February recital, because of its artist, Sergi Rachmaninoff. Ser- gi Rachmaninoff is known to-day as the sec- ond greatest living pianist, being surpassed in popular esteem only by Paderewski, who is unequalled for genius in piano playing. Rachmaninoff was born in Novgord, Russia. in 1876. He began his career while still very young and gained his fame before attempt- ing the more difficult piano technique. He is a 'Composer of Originality' with two operas t'The Bohemiansu and The Avaricious Knightvi two concertos: a symphony: a sym- phonic poem: a cantata. Spring : and many pianoforte compositions, his Prelude in C known, to his sat breathless Sharp Minor being the best credit. As for his recital. we at the thought of having such a character in reach of our vision, and what is more. to be given the privilege of seeing him at his 'tri- umph'. His first number was one of Bach's best-known fugues. Organ Fantasia and Fu- gue in G Minor . This was his first number and one of his two best. His wonderful ability at stacatto and cross-hand work revealed him to us as a wizard. His other number, referred to above, was his Chopin group: Yalse . t'Nocturne , Mazurka and Rondo , all of which are well- known to students and therefore delighted them to hear and see these works played by a great master. His own score. Three Etudes Tableauxu, was presented as three different tone scenes as definite as pan- tomimes. Liszt's Sonetto del Petrarcow was a touch of fine elegant romance, and Wag- ner's f'Magic Fire was done as if an orches- tration work. His two glorious encores, Spin- ning Songu. and Liebeslied . his own ar- rangement. brought a never-to-be-forgotten evening to a close. For five minutes the audi- ence applauded. hoping for his famous C Sharp Minor Prelude , but alas, when the genius again appeared, it was only for his final 'au revoir', and the crowd finally went away enraptured with the mysterious beauty of what they had heard. This series of recitals will be completed in March, when we hear a woman pianist of great distinction, Poldi Mildner.

GRC!-IESTl2A NCDTES During the past year the school orchestra has risen to new heights in the field of music, and its youthful members are becoming more accomplished with the passing of every prac- tice. Under the guidance and perseverance of the leader, Mr. H. Tufts. the orchestra is gradually becoming recognized as a great as- set to the school. We have filled numerous engagements so far this season. some of which were at Kew Beach School. the Commencement Exercises, the Merchandising Display and at Woodgreen United Church. The annual sleighing party was of course out of the question this year. The postpone- ment of this event was a great disappoint- ment to the orchestra members and their friends who have enjoyed the previous out- ings. However. plans are under way for a Forty , , by ED. PORTER social. but the exact date has not been de- cided. There are two members of the orchestra this year who should receive honorable men- tion. The first is jim Virtue. whose remarkable whistling ability has brought him encore after encore in his rendition of The Whistler and His Dog. A Whistler who can be heard above a full orchestra is something of which few orchestras can boast. and we are indeed for- tunate in having him with us. The second is Herb, Yates. a new member this year, who has proved himself to be a whirlwind player on the bells and Xylophone. His bells in Goldman's On the Mall has given new life to that famous march. As a well known newspaper columnist says, Or- chids to them.

CommencementY The word echoed through the corridors of liastern Com- merce. as final preparations were made for this reunion of our graduates, The auditorium was beautifully decorated with ferns and chrysanthemums. and the gay school colours were to be seen everywhere. We had with us at this. our llth annual commencement. a number of members from the Board of liducation and also a group of business men. The orchestra, directed by Mr. Tufts. en- tertained us until S pm.. when the doors of the auditorium were opened, and our proud graduates entered. as the overture was being played. Our Principal, Mr. Walter Keast. HA.. gave a short address dealing with the work of the school and the assistance given to the students in finding employment. Misses Muriel and Lucy Reubens played a Two-Piano Selection. Danse Macabre. The audience showed their appreciation with ap- plause for an encore. Now began the presentation of diplomas.

Teachers, friends and graduates then made their way to the North Gymnasium and spent a pleasant time dancing while refreshments were being served in the cafeteria. At 11.45 the evening ended with the Na- tional Anthem and once again the graduates left behind them the school they had learned to know and respect. to fulfil its motto: ENTER TO LEARN-GO FORTH TU SERVE . Valedictory Address, 1936 ' ' Irv ITETER J. HEENAN PETER J. HEENAN To-night it is my privilege as valedictor- ian, on behalf of the graduating classes of 1936, to bid a formal farewell to the Eastern High School of Commerce. Mingled with pride and happiness. there comes a certain feeling of sadness in the realization that though it is a short time since we left and little water has flowed under the bridge, we have completed a period in our lives, which we can never forget. A certain feeling of loneliness also is introduced when we realize that we are no longer under the careful guid- Forty-four ance of Mr. Keast and the members of the Staff. Although we have been provided with the finest training possible, we are left to walk the longest and most hazardous road- that of experience-alone. Whether we shall attain success or not depends largely upon the work we did here. Returning to the school this evening. we recalled dozens of events. which were the realities of yesterday, but which by to-mor- row will be treasured as memories. We re- member the rugby games, when we stood in the rain to cheer on the players clad in crim- son, old gold and black. To lose. what did that matter so long as we kept on fighting until the final whistle? Or perhaps we recall the dances, where the amateurs rather wel- comed a crowded floor, with only the spot- ligl 'ts to illuminate their bad footwork. Per- ha s we smile to ourselves when we remember that unhappy occasion, when, after being ask- ed if our homework was complete, we were told to put it on the black-board. Then our embarrassment made us realize our inability to get by without doing our work, When we entered this auditorium to-night, we were filled with the warmth and affection, that is so characteristic of homecoming. It seems but yesterday since we assembled for morning prayers. Then there were the periods when we would hold our public-speaking classes. or perhaps rehearse twith apologies to Mr. Shakespearel Twelfth Night or The Merchant of Venice. These and many other events of our happy school-days will remain with us. During our four years here our attitudes towards school have undergone many changes -perhaps the greatest towards our teachers. During the first two years we regarded them as god-like beings who moved upon a lofty plane to which we could never aspire. Then, EASTERN ECHO however, in the last two years at dances and through other extra-curricular activities. we came to know them as our friends. Perhaps this more than anything else gave us renewed energy in our work. for we realized that they had faith in us. and were at hand at all times. to help us with our problems. We learned to appreciate the kindly advice of the principal and staff. and saw that their criticism was for our own benefit. Our education at Eastern has prepared us for hours of both business and leisure. Some subjects such as shorthand and bookkeeping are academic as well as practical, which fit us for the business office. Others enable us to appreciate the cultural side of life, Our training would have been incomplete without both. At Commerce our games have developed a spirit of keen competition. team-play. and clean sportsmanship. Of course. this did not come without many hard-knocks, which we found after all were only characteristics of the World of Experience in miniature. At the dances. concerts and other informal activities. we were given the opportunity to meet people. and to enjoy their company, which means so much to young people en- tering social life. As senior students here, we were inclined to think that once out in the business world. we would easily gain success. No more home- work, no more burning the midnight 'l. cramming for exams? But now. what do 'e find? There is still work to do. and much to learn, for, if we are to succeed. we must seek all knowledge possible. To Mr. Keast. Mr. Spence. to the Board of Education, who have so completely equip- ped this school of ours, we owe a debt that can never be repaid. In return, we can but strive to emulate the character and integrity of previous' graduates. and to cherish warm memories of the Eastern High School of Com- merce. To the undergraduates, we have only this message to give: Learn to play the game. learn to play for side and not for self. Learn to obey, so that in due time you may com- mand. Learn to practise self-control, and above all learn to stick-it! Far when the One Great Scorer comes To write against your name, He writes not that you won or last But how you played the game . EASTERN ECHO RUGBY DANCE The annual Rugby Dance of the Eastern High School of Commerce was held on Fri- day. December 4. 1036. Couples. who had looked forward for many weeks in eager anticipation of this event. now danced in the gaily decorated gymnasium from which issued forth sounds of laughter and gaiety mingled with the soft strains of music from Bert Simmons Orchestra. Entertainment was p1'o- vided in the form of a floor show. which was appreciated and enjoyed by both teachers and students. A Russian Dance was presented by three girls of the school. several song num- bers by Audrey Evans. and impersonations by Joe. Murphy. At midnight the orchestra struck up the National Anthem and once again Eastern Commerce settled down to its old routine. TEA DANCE The students of the Eastern High School of Commerce closed the school year of 1936 with a Tea Dance in the north gymnasium. Students and teachers danced to the music of a four-piece orchestra and between dances punch was served to the thirsty merry-makers. .-X similar Tea Dance was held at the end of the week of the Mid-Year Examinations. .-X sign in the hall read.

Next year an earlier start is anticipated for the Dramatic Societys programmes, The Christmas Play w'as our contribution to the annual programme of the Girls' Club. It was entitled The Child in Flanders , by Cicely Hamilton. The Prologue opens with Privates Whittaker. Murdock, and Daoud Khan boisterously entering a French pea- sant's cottage to seek shelter for the night. With considerable difficulty they conveyed to the Frenchman their need of food and shelter. After they had discovered that the peasants wife had just borne a son. they settled down by A. G. Sirrri-1 AND :XLEC .-XNGIER quietly. Their dreams were then the coming of Christ - the events of Bethlehem. The Girls' Chorus, under the direction of Miss Howard, and the stage lighting provided ap- propriate setting for this scene. As the music dies away, the peasant re-enters and wakes the sleeping men. While the peasant is get- ting his lantern to show them the road, the three soldiers discuss their dreams. As they pass under the crucifix over the door that leads to the Arras road and No Manis Land , each one turns to salute the child reverently. The mid-year examination period having come to an end, programmes for the spring term are under consideration. LITERARY AND DRAMATIC SOCIETY Centre Front-R.

Eight and one-half years ago, through the instigation of SIX teachers and TWU graduates. a constitution was drawn up and the nucleus of our present organization was formed. Vp until three to four years ago we tlourished and built up the Iinest association of its kind in the city. We had a large work- ing capital and had established a reserve fund. We enjoyed monthly meetings of both educational and entertaining variety. a magniticient annual dance, moonlight sails across the lake and two excellent plays. All this was accomplished during the worst period of the World Slumpu. Then things started to slide. We promoted the same high standard of meetings. but our attendance dropped. Fortunately, we were able to retain the faithful fifty originals who came out rain or shine, snow or sleet. They enjoyed a good time and were glad to be still associated with the school. Now-why is it the Alumni is not able to attract the more recent graduates to our meetings? Last fall at our annual meeting there were eighteen present and only one of these was a recent grad , the others graduated six to eight years ago. This was not very encouraging to the incoming ex- ecutive, Do you know about the graduates' associationg are you so busy after graduat- ing that you are not able to attend one meet- ing a .monthg or is it that school has become so distasteful that you do not want to be EASTERN ECHO associated with it after you have completed your term? Next fall, when we have our annual meet- ing in October, let the Alumni see a hundred per cent. attendance of the latest graduates. Let us start the '37 and '38 season off with and re-establish the association on solid footing, so that we may have contact with the present students and create an interest which is now sadly lacking. .Xll this can, and will be done if the graduating class co-operate with the a ban g a more a cle tscr present old-timers and turn out regularly to all our meetings. Particularly we commend to you, our Badminton Club, which meets every Friday night in the boys' gymnasium, our Dance and our llramatic Group, This year it was our pleasure to have the l'resident of the Students' Council and the llresident of the Girls' .Xthletics at two of our executive meetings. We sincerely hope the association thus established will be mutually advantageous. May we see YOL' next Fall.

Q Stationery Street Department ' Floor USC YOUI' CGFUZVG More This article is not going to try to put on any photographic dog , Your Photo- graphy Editor isn't even going to call him- self we , or pretend that he expects you to know a Scheiner Degree from a Focal-Plane Shutter or a K-1 Filter. In other words, relax-and lets see if there isn't something we can do about those pictures that don't come out as you want them, or that you didnt even take because you thought you couldnt. About half of the readers of this article will have box cameras of one kind or an- other. A third will have cameras of the fold- ing type, a little more elaborate, with various regulating gadgets. The remainder of my readers, an affiuent sixth, will use cameras with faster lenses and shutters. Unless these are prepared for something quite un- assuming and informal, they should turn at once to the Humour Section, where they may laugh legitimately. No matter what kind of camera you have. you will fall into one of these three general classes: those who take informal snapshots, groups, etc., and the occasional sunsetg those who, with a minimum of equipment and preparation, seek a little effect in their pictures and do a little experimenting along various lines: or, less probably, you are the cunning scientific kind that delight in strik- ing effect, or some special line of photography. If you are to get good results, there is one thing you must do, whatever the class to which you belong. You must get acquainted with what your camera will do, what all the little scales and levers on it mean, and can accomplish for you. Dont wait until the necessity for using them comes up, find out in advance! And whatever the photographic device you are using, camera, film, or filter, READ THE RULES! AND FOLLOW THEM! After a time, by experiment and accident, you will gain judgment and get the knack of taking pictures without reference to tables of exposures, but, if you really want to be certain of getting a certain picture, you cant do better than to follow an exposure table and any other rules which have to do with the picture you are taking. But Where can you obtain information Fifty-four fr by CARL YELL.-NND, Special I that is understandable-information given to inform, not to impress? Well, best of all, from camera enthusiasts. I have yet to meet a Photography Fiend who doesn't brighten visibly at a simple request for aid. Also you can obtain pamphlets free of charge by writing to the Eastman Kodak Co., Rochester, N.Y., or by dropping into the Kodak Store at 114 Yonge Street, here in Toronto. These leaflets deal quite com- pletely each with its particular branch of in- formation, and are very easy to follow. If you like to dig deeper, and really study the principles involved, but without going beyond your depth. you will find it well worth your while to buy and read the annually-revised book, published by Eastmans, 'fHow to Make Good Picturesn. Now let's consider what pictures we can take with our camera besides the ordinary run-of-the-mill we may have been content with in the past. Outdoors, besides pictures of people, you will notice if you observe closely, camera at hand, that there are a multitude of subjects for you to draw upon waiting only for your imagination to make use of them. Flowers, parks, the wealth of architecture for which Toronto is noted, the lakefront. the airport-these are to be had for the taking', by any of you who own or use a camera. If your camera is rapid, hav- ing a lens of f. 8 rating or more, you have the added opportunity of going in for action or semi-action material, street snapshots, and so on, known among the experts as Candid Camera work. Possibly you will have found some sug- gestion which is of interest in the above. But, if you have not yet tried indoor photography, and that quite lately, your biggest surprise will follow. Superpanchromatic film, used indoors along with a Photofiash Lamp, a pair of Photofiood Lamps, or one or more No 2 Photofiood Lamps, will enable you. with the cheapest box camera, to take indoor photos at any time of the day or night. The day is gone when your subject sat so very still, and so very close to the window Cto get all the light possiblel for the age-long exposure of 60 or SO seconds, Similarly, the QCOIIHIZIIFII on page 02.3 EASTERN ECHO Y A 1 '...1.u,.,. im., , X 'G My L vi r ' + 'vfinfe5--M '1 21 - ff- ' , -.- . vg gg , f ew-1'-':15f:.'.' 5 1 ' -' rf ' .- -153 H -. fs SYNGQ I - 3: K I -W7 I .

If there is a war, will we, the youth of Canada, fight, as did our fathers? These are two questions vital to the youth of to-day. We are always having the horrors of the last War, in which our fathers and mothers lost many dear friends and relations, in which many young people lost their fathers, brought to our attention. Yet, while this is being done, preparation is going on for a greater and more horrible massacre than that of 1914-18. Why should we, the young people of to- day, be made to throw away the hope, love and happiness that lies ahead, just because certain nations are acting like selfish people? Yet this is the most likely cause of the next war. Here is what I mean by nations acting like selfish people. One nation obtains a sub- marine, and some airplanes, the nation next door, hearing of this, immediately procure two submarines, and more airplanes than his neighbour. This goes on and on, hostilities becoming more and more apparent, until, finally, one nation, feeling itself superior, de- clares war.

The reason to-day for the lack of expan- sion in Canada is a want of a larger popula- tion, If this is the case to-day, what would happen to this country if all of her young people were sent forth to die on the battle- field? This reason alone should be enough to make any Canadian, man or woman, old or young, fight with all he or she possesses for World Peace . The other important question is: will we fight if there is a war? If Britain is involved the answer is, 'tYes , with a capital Any loyal British subject will naturally want to fight for the freedom of the Empire. Loyalty, however, is not the only reason we should fight, side by side with England. If England were defeated, what would be the next move of the foreign victor? The answer is obvious. The victorls next move would be the conquest of Canada. Why? Because of its vast quantities of undeveloped natural resources, and, above all, its great possibilities for population. Our motto should be, Fight primarily for peace, and Fight for the freedom of the Empire in any consequencef' Fifty-seven ll W6 Could Choose G I wonder how many of us long to throw up this humdrum city life and do what we really want to do? Don't you sometimes feel as though city life were slowly strangling you? Have you ever experienced that restless feeling inside your breast, a helpless desire crying and struggling to free itself and become a reality? If you have, you know what I mean when I speak of the city as a prison. Perhaps you have also thought of a prison you'd enjoy. Will you bear with me, while I describe mine? A rugged mountain range majestically stands guard over one end of the valley, and then like a giant staircase it drops down on either side. On the other end a dense forest rises against a deep blue. cloudless sky. In the foreground stands a large log cabin. Chairs, couches, and tables are manufactur- ed from wood brought from the forest. Soft leather cushions make chairs and couches the acme of comfort. A bear rug in front of an open fireplace makes cold wintery nights a cozy delight, A short distance from the cabin there is a rather small. but deep creek. This basin was worn out of the rock, years ago, by an underground river and is now an excellent swimming hole. However, we must stay quite near the surface, for the water is rather cold at the bottom. For drinking water and to catch fish, we must climb a short distance up the mountain slope. An icy little river trickles over the worn stones, gathering force and volume, and tumbles down a five foot drop, creating a miniature Niagara Falls. It rushes on and then after a short distance it slows down as if infiuenced by the peaceful scene around it. It ambles lazily along until it finally disappears into a crevasse. We find indescribable beauty as, at dusk. the glorious sun sinks slowly down behind the mountains. Its dying embers, like a great tire, tint the snow-capped mountain peaks a blood red. At last its splendor fades and darkness closes down. When we return to this spot a short time later, we are equally speechless as her misty sister climbs steadily up into the vast dark Fifty-eight ur prison by YERNA SMITH, 2F sky. Again the mountain snow is tinted, but oh. how differently! The colours are soft and ingenious, as if a master painter had lightly passed his brush over the scene. Soft orange, splashes of silver, royal deep purple, and a delicate yellow form the colour scheme of our mountain guardians. The forest shines with a ghostly light and a soft breeze car- ries to us the heavenly odour of the pines. The little river rushes past like a Hood of disturbed quick-silver and dashes over the precipice, throwing up a misty veil that seems to have all the colours of the rainbow and more besides. The splashing water sparkles like a thousand jewels and babbles with joy as if it realized its own beauty. The lights of the cabin cast a reddish glare on the still creek, while the moon builds a silver roadway down the centre. But unlike the babbling, conceited little river, the creek bears her beauty modestly, and re- mains silent. Peace, contentment, beauty of Nature, we find all here. We find something to really thank God for. Now, I thank you for your kind attention. I hope perhaps you'll say, as my brother did: Say, you're stealing my stuff.

On each side was a wide field of tall grass wherein dwelt many tiny field mice.

Curiosity got the better of me and silently I Watched the strange antics of that small rodent.

I held my breath when the eager eyes scanned me, but they didnt seem to realize I was not just another piece of furniture. Then it peered down into the darkness below. from whence came tempting smells at which a tiny nose wiggled with delightful anticipation. At last I understood what this venture- some small creature wanted in the privacy of my bedroom. In the basket were some half- demolished jelly beans and several egg shells. and that poor wee mouse was so hungry he disobeyed his stern mother's warnings and let his stomach lead him into danger. He kept up his little game of running, stopping for breath and running again until I was in a bad state of dizziness, even if the mouse was not. Suddenly I gave the bed a shake. The mouse looked startled and fled. The next morning a baby mouse was caught in the trap outside my door. Stock Figures in Fiction f f by ELs1E HILL, ZH To read. is to observe, and one cannot read an average of one book a week with- out observing that stock figures in fiction are not scarce. There are several of these popular CPD heroes or heroines, who have no doubt existed so long for no other reason than that they fit well into the story, and, with a different name tagged on. pre- sent a very interesting subject for a few hoursl reading, to make the book a little longer. Some person once observed that f'The Bible or Shakespeare was the beginning of fiction . Whichever it was, we can blame our choice for giving us such characters as are common to-day. The first stock figure EASTERN ECHO -and the most common-in my opinion would be the typical hero or heroine. This particular main character will continue to labour under great odds, with everyone turn- ed against him as a result of being accused of murdering the wealthy matron's tom-cat. or of not removing his hat in the elevator, until he reaches the final climax by resetting the mayors daughter-or the presidents, which is even bettereand being restored to his original position as chief buttonhole maker, By then the author mercifully decides to withdraw, and leaves the hero to his ulti- mate happiness. Sometimes the story is varied, and the hero is a thoroughly insignificant, ragged, unaspiring urchin, until one day, by Fifty-nine accident. he is found to have tattooed on the nail of his big toe an emblem which entitles him to become heir of an earldom, and a large estate. which is invariably in England. Owing to his nurse dropping him down a hatchway in London, he was given up for good, and sailed away to America, where he became king of his special alley. A sub-division of this is the bad hero. who does everything imaginable to get in the juvenile court. Finally someone appeals to his manhood. and he grows up to be bank president, marries the girl whose hair he used to pull in school, and lives to refiect on his past life in amaze- ment. The second figure is the young, energetic, know-all detective. Quietly he makes his rounds, despite all the snubs of the com- manding officerenearly always a sergeant- until. in the last chapter, bleeding in ten places. he relates the amazing tale of how he escaped from the burning building, cut himself loose with a piece of tin, and captur- ed the band of twenty single-handed with a revolver made of tar soap. Third comes the rich old uncle, who will do nothing to help the destitute grandson or nephew. Forcefully he tells him to depart from the house, and never cast his shadow across the door-step again. When the young relative saves the family fortunes by sell- ing out stock, or by frustrating an attempt to rob the old gentlemen of his corn plasters, he is taken into the now warm bosom of the family. Next, and fourth, is the Public Enemy No. 1, the landlord or the holder of the mortgage. In vain does the erstwhile proud family plead for more time. Never! The villain is firm. The money he must have or the house, At the very moment the tearful family are vacating. up pops the hero, who had gone out into the world to make his fortune, and tells the villain where to get off at.

Broad- men who steal for it away, abound in would make this list hearted. kindly, loving the mere joy of giving story books, but I doubt, in life. Gentle- man jackf' 'tRaftles , or whatever his name might be, makes his scoops with monstrous daring. He must be a ventriloquist, a boxer, an expert at the art of ju-jutsu, a good rider, Sixty a wonderful conversationalist, and must pos- sess a quick finger on the trigger. The day after a typical f'haul he makes the rounds of the slums, dressed in immaculate evening clothes, and showers his gifts on the poor. He continues this life until he falls in love, when the girl undertakes to reform him. She succeeds, and the poor proceed to starve because of the discontinued gifts. My comment on staple figures in fiction seems to lean to satire. and one would think fiction was my greatest bugbear. That is not so, for I enjoy fiction, These are just my opinions on characters who abound in the average book.

ZH tfunior Story, First Awardj I suppose all of us have had at one time or another the pleasure t?J of minding a baby. But I think I can say without contra- diction that the baby I looked after on this particular afternoon was the worst little bun- dle of humanity that ever anyone had any- thing to do with. Baby Elsie was the possession of a lady, who. up until this time, was a great friend of mine, and for this reason she had entrusted her precious lamb to my care while she went shopping. I will admit that I was a decided amateur at this task and optimistically looked for- ward to spending a pleasant afternoon with a sweetly dispositioned baby who would do nothing but sleep, leaving me to read in peace. Alas! for my unfulfilled hopes. When the baby arrived I sat her on a cush- ion placed on the floor with some of my younger sisters toys to amuse her. She was older than I expected and could walk quite well. Seeing that she looked fairly contented, and after watching her amusing antics for a while. I returned to my book and was soon lost in the pages of an exciting novel. The baby' meantime was amusing herself in her own delightful little way. I Mother had bought a small pail of lard the day before. and, having used a small portion of it, 'the lid had been placed on very in- securely. When I missed the baby some fif- teen minutes later and went to find her, there she sat on the kitchen linoleum, plastering her hair, clothing, the furniture and floor with EASTERN ECHO the contents of the pail. all the while emits ting delightful little chuckles of joy. You can imagine with some accuracy my unuttered thoughts. Well, I gave the baby a bath, washed her hair and put on her some clean clothes- relics of my younger days, Then I cleaned up the mess she had made in the kitchen. I then went down cellar and unearthed my old high- chair. dusted it off and sat her severely in it with some of the toys to keep her amused. She cried. Howl after howl rent the air. until I thought my ear drums would surely split. She threw all the toys at me, and I must say that her aim was fairly good. I was forced at last in self defence to put her in her old position on the floor. where, under my watch- ful eye. she played quietly for a time. My watchfulness relaxed after a while and I returned to my book. Elsie then returned to lm' occupations. I'pstairs she went. crawling on her hands and knees and obtaining some help from the friendly bannisters. Into my bedroom she found her way. She pulled wider the already half-opened drawers tl had been in a hurry that morningl and began flinging my clothes about the bedroom. Then she obtained my powder box from the top of the dressing table. Opening it, she spread the contents liberally over my scattered raiment. especially my black serge skirt. How the powder was re- moved from that, only the cleaner knows. Opening my lipstick she made pitty marks , as she called them. all over the silk bedspread. Oh what a mess she made! Then having learned the use of the bathtub, she put in Sixty-one the plug, turned the water on gently and continued on her disastrous way, I was return- ed to consciousness, as it were, by the sound of a terrific crash as she pulled the lace dress- er scarf off my mothers bureau, Everything was broken. Brushes, combs, perfume bottles, creams and lotions lay in a pool of water from the broken flower vase. Even the mirror was broken, which according to superstition means seven years' bad luck, and I certainly hope she got them with interest! Upstairs I flew, accompanied by the wails of the baby who had been startled by the loud crash. In the excitement of cleaning up, I failed to hear the trickling water. until, sit- ting down to rest after my strenuous labours of cleaning up, I heard the drip. drip of the water descending the stairs. Words failed me! The resourcefulness of some peoples' children in amusing themselves is simply marvellous! After order was restored. I returned the baby to the high-chair. stuffed my ears with cotton batting and wrathfully awaited the ar- rival of Elsie's mother.

Although this kaleidoscope of thought may take time to write. it took Sammy but a fraction of a sec- ond to arrange these remarkable deductions in his mind. As this line of thought flashed upon him, Sammy heard a light shuffling in the ware- house next to which he was standing. Sight- ing a door farther down the alley, he decided to try to enter the building. Reaching the door he put out his hand to touch it. Much to his surprise it opened, seemingly of its own volition, and, taking a tighter grip on his nightstick, he entered. His eyes becoming accustomed to the gloom. he started out, tip- toeing down a long hall toward another door. Possibly at the age of three or thereabouts, Sammy could tiptoe quietly, but unfortun- ately that age was long gone by. his present attempt reminding one of a baby elephant tramping on Aunt Marials pet corn.

Without a thought of what had gone before, Sammy galloped Through the Shows Robert looked up from the fire where he was roasting chestnuts as Jack Sothern closed the huge door behind him and came to warm his hands. Such a winter I never saw or felt before, said Jack. stamping his feet in an attempt to return circulation. Jack Sothern was the typical example of the man of the time, engaged in the service of the Hudsons Bay Company. Heavy cor- duroy breeches were tucked into the top of stout. knee-high boots, laced tightly. His thick belted jacket was long, reaching almost to his knees. The doeskin mittens had been purchased from an Indian and were of the best. A knitted woollen toque completed the outfit. Robert drew a wooden bench to the fire and they sat down together. The room in which they were. stretched the length of the building and was the main hall or f'store . Here the Indians brought their furs for trade. Long counters stood along the walls. The rest of the men were drifting in from feeding their dogs or from their various other duties. Roberts attention was arrested as one man entered and stood looking around. Look, said the boy to jack, isn't that Pierre d-2 Gris. from the North-Western Fort across the river? Why so it is. I wonder why he is here? answered Jack. As they watched. Pierre climbed onto a table and raised his voice. The men gathered around as they recognized him. My fellow-traders. he began. I have been sent by our seigneur to eenvite you to our post to-night.

Suddenly he stiffened and strained with all his might to catch the words some- one was uttering on the other side of the pillar. You have done well, Pierre. You shall be rewarded. The fools fell for our scheme at once. Now make haste, and take your dogs. You must meet those Indians before they are seen by the Bay men. They are at Lake Chip- pewa by now.

His companion hurried from behind the pillar and crossed the hall. Luckily, he did not see Robert. The boy made up bis mind. He must reach those Indians first. He raced for the door. There was not time to cross the frozen river and bring back his own team. Hastily pull- ing on his mittens and his toque, he looked around for a team he could borrow. Ah! there was one. lt belonged to Ridge. one of the Bays own men. Quickly he examined the harness and seized the whip. Snowshoes there too. Good. Even as he cracked the whip. and the dogs moved forward, Robert saw the team of de Gris head south as it came from behind the building. What a fool he had been not to get help! Still, he could not turn back now, and he was known as an equal to some of the grown men of the fort, De Gris had not looked back, but Robert knew he must pass him to win, and de Gris would not per- mit that, But he would wait and see what happened. The miles rolled by and suddenly, to his right. Robert saw a dark line. the River Lee, draw nearer. This river was a tributary of the river dividing the two forts, and sepa- rated the North-West fort from Lake Chip- pewa. To cross the river safely, with a team, one must go down the river at least two miles and then come back to the Lake on the other side. De Gris swung to the left to go along the river. Robert hesitated. His way was clear. To win he must cross the river at this point, dangerous as it might be. De Gris disappeared into a small copse of trees. In a flash Robert was out of the sled and strapping on the huge snowshoes. He seized the harness of the leading dog and urged the team onto the ice. Because of the swift cur- rent at this point, the river never froze quite firmly. The huge sled was the boy's chief worry: it was cumbersome, and unwieldy. Three times did its rear runners fall through the ice, and three times did Roberts heart almost fail him as he pulled it to safety again. He was at length forced to test the ice be- fore he advanced, so treacherous did it be- come. He felt the ice heave beneath his feet and with growing horror he saw a widen- ing crack form to his right. Desperately, he urged the dogs on: slipping, tugging, strain- ing, they pressed on, and all the while the black line of water grew bigger and drew nearer, Summoning all his strength, Robert put his shoulders to the sled and heaved. As Sixty-four it flew over the ice and past the danger zone. he followed, but not before he had suffered a twisted ankle and measured his length on the hard ice. He gained the opposite bank in time, and breathed a thankful prayer as he cracked the whip once more. Robert stumbled into the night camp of the Indians, by Lake Chippewa. Exhausted as he was, having walked to ease the burden of the sled. and suffering with a swollen ankle and a bleeding nose, he completed the ar- rangements with the chief for the delivery of the furs to the Hudson's Bay Company a full quarter hour before de Gris drove up. His rivals face, on seeing the boy who greet- ed him, gave Robert great pleasure, but it was not so great as the words of praise re- ceived from the Governor of the Bay fort. My boy, he said, you have done a deed a grown man would be proud of. These furs will mean furthering of our trade treaties. and also an advantage over our rivals. Your father will hear of it from me, and I am sure he will consent now to take you to the Churchill post, which I hear is your greatest desire. At any rate, I will do my best to persuade him. Thank you, sir, said Robert and depart- ed to bask in the praises of his fellow traders. 47 1 If .X .f ,, 5 A f s N390 5,15 EASTERN ECHO l HONOFR STVDENTS tThese Students obtained at least an average of S050 on the February reportb Seated: Harry Green.

The knowledge of this approaching catastrophe brews a sort of desperate recklessness in you, Why not, you reason defiantly. have one final fling before my freedom is taken from me. A condemned man feels the same way about his last meal. By subtle propaganda, the Ex- hibition is suggested as the ideal place to fling yourself. From then on the thing is out of your hands, A street-car whisks t?l you down to the gates, and, trying to look as public-school as possible, you hand the attendant your young brothers free ticket. Once inside, youre done for. A thousand attractions are set up for one purpose-to get your money. A surging crowd of eager victims bears you to the Pure Food building. There you don't have to walk. I have found that by standing still, limbs relaxed and on someone elses feet, I can be carried past every stall and booth in the building, only rising for air every two or three minutes. As you are borne slowly past, you have time to purchase the bags and articles that are shoved in your face. These consist of Sweet Marie bags. Chipso bags. Liptons Tea bags. Uvaltine bags, Kelli-gs Wheatie bags and others. You buy balloons, monkeys, dolls, walking Canes, noise-makers and other useless articles. which your mother will dispose of next day.

Believing that participation in some athletic activity is good for every girl who is physically tit, the Girls' Athletic Society sponsors mass participation. A girl's character is plainly shown by the way she plays the game . Qualities such as co-operation, sportsmanship, honesty and ability to assume responsibility, are all de- veloped and obtained through athletics. Because of the wide variety of sports, it is possible for every girl in the school to tind at least one which she particularly enjoys. Tennis and volleyball are played in the fall' basketball and badminton during the winter months: baseball and track activities receive enthusiastic support in the spring: swimming continues for the entire school year. Our Physical Education teachers, Miss Ruth Campbell and Miss Dorothea Thatcheiy and the Girls' Athletic Executive are re- sponsible for the well organized programme of after school activities. To the Curators of each sport, and the many wholare called on to assist them, we extend our sincere thanks and appreciation.

It does not necessarily mean that the form winning the greatest number of champion- ships will have obtained the most points. for credit is given for participation as well as achievement. As a result. a form which has all its members participating in one or more activities, stands just as good a chance of winning the award as one with only a few skilled participants. The contest promises to be a close one this year. with second forms doing their best to obtain this singular honour. EASTERN ECHO INDIVIDUAL POINTS The Executive of the Girls' Athletic Society hereby certities that, having success- fully completed her academic year. is quali- lied to receive the Senior Honour Letter on the basis of enthusiastice participation in athletic activities, outstanding qualities of leadership and an unfailing attitude of good sportsmanshipf' The girl who has been successful in acquir- ing 1200 points. 300 of which must be for leadership. is rewarded by receiving the Senior Honour Letter together with the above certificate. The junior students try for the -lunior Letter, which represents 700 points. 150 of them having to be leadership points. BASKETBALL Another season has started for basketball, The tournament is now in progress, and any- 3 one who comes down to the gymnasium on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays can see how popular this particular sport is. The senior form aames are just about completed. Special 1, having won every game so far, will play 431 for the upper school championship. The second and third form games will continue during the Iirst tw.: weeks in March. The competition is kein. and it is impos- sible to even guess who the nnal winners will be. First form games will not be finished until sometime after Easter. It has been especially interesting to watch the improve- ment that has been made by these teams during the course of their games. Many thanks to the girls who are assisting in conducting the tournament, and good luck to the team that hope'to be4Champions! .T ..f'14T vefa- Q 'iii , 00 OO GIRLS' ATHLETIC EXECUTIVE Front Row: N.

VOLLEYBALL The volleyball nets are down until next fall and the champions of each form are proudly wearing their crests. The games were run off quickly and smoothly, with six games on every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. 4SZ triumphed over 451 in the upper school linal game. 354 had a close game with 352 before they came out as third form champions. ZI roniped home with the 2nd form championship, defeating 2C. 1C con- cluded the volleyball series by beating IN in the iinal game, Besides the regular games, the winners Eighty and runners-up had the pleasure of playing against teams from other schools. On two occasions we were guests at Danforth Technical and once at Riverdale. Late in November two teams from Malvern, River- dale, and Danforth Technical came here as our guests and we had exciting games both in the girls' and boys' gymnasiums. Refresh- ments terminated a pleasant afternoon. We owe the success of the volleyball tournament to the capable direction of the Curator, Marguerite Ross. and the co- operation of the referees, scorers and time- keepers. .QSTERN Ecno TENNIS The annual Tennis Tournament. open to all girls of second. third, fourth. hfth and special forms was held last fall at Green- wood Park. Once again. the large number of entries was evidence that this tournament is gaining steadily in popularity. Mary Saunders and Elsie Anderson were winners of the Senior group. Bella Marnock and Margaret Wice were the third form champions. Dorothy Jones and Lorraine McGavin proved their superiority to the other second form entrants. These three couples played off to determine the school champions and that honour went to Bella and Margaret. The tirst form tournament will he held in the spring, and we are expecting an equally interesting and closely contested series of games. BADMINTON More than one hundred players welcomed the beginning of the Badminton Club activities this year. Because of the increased membership. it was decided to divide the Club into two groups-juniors and Seniors. The juniors meet each Wednesday afternoon and receive instruction in badminton technique. On Fri- day the Seniors play using the tlight system of tournament that was started last year and proved to be so popular. In the near future we are lookinu forward to havin: four outstanding players from the Toronto Radio and Sports. Limited. They will demonstrate and explain the various strokes. and also Lrive an exhibition of singles and doubles. .Xt present the players in Flight are ranked as follows: 1. Rita Lembke, SS 2.

EASTERN ECHO Eighty-one SWIMMING CLUB SPRAY The Swimming Club has enjoyed an excit- ing and eventful existence this year. livery Friday at A p.m.. from 15 to 20 would-be record-breakers congregate in the pool to practise advanced life-saving. ornamental swimming. and speed swimming. In the three meets to date, our girls have proved themselves more ornamental than speedy. but the closeness of the competition auaurs well for the coming meet on Febru- ary 25, at Jarvis Collegiate. The tirst meet was held at Danforth Tech.. where the Tech. girls managed to splash their way to a close but well-merited victory. The Commerce girls showed to better advantage in their home pool, where the next two meets were held, but had to bow to Danforth Tech. again and to Malvern. The girls are keenly awaiting their new school bathing suits, money for which has been kindly donated by the School Council. ln closing may I. for the Swimming Club as a whole, express thanks and appreciation for the unfailing interest and support given by Miss Campbell. LIFE-SAVING September may mean just the beginning of another school year to a lot of students- but to seventy-tive girls who form the Life- Saving Group. it is the beginning of an en- joyable and valuable period of instruction in swimming.

BASEBALL Baseball is a favourite sport at Eastern Commerce and heads the list of our spring activities. Although the season is not yet open. it is not dihcicult to recall the excitment. of last year. lt seemed that everyone in the school played baseball. for the held was always filled with enthusiastic players. Last spring. every form entered a team in the tournament, which. because of the limited playing time at our disposal, had necessarily to be of the elimination type. All the games were closely contestedfbut to ZF, who were victorious in all their games. went the honour of being our school champions.

The highlight of your magazine was. in my opinion. the short story Respite by james Baker. He is certainly to be congratu- lated for his talent as a writer. The News Section was unusually set up for a magazine, but I think it breaks up the magazine to a certain extent, The Tech. Trzflfr. You have some interesting illustrations. I particularly liked Sea Scape and Ball of the Wild. -Esraziz Osraorr. THE GIRLS' CLUB tCm1tin1zed from page 47.3 gave a suitable Christmas play entitled HA Child of Flanders .

EASTERN ECHO BOYS' ATI-ILETIC JUNIOR RUGBY TEAM The junior Rugby Team, Oh! What 9. Team! What a Team! We lost five league games and tied one. lost one exhibition, but we won two games from the bantams-we could at least beat them. Total games won: 2: Lost: 6: Tied: lg Points: 5. Somehow we just couldn't win. Mr. Carter claims it was due to our inferiority complex. He may be right. The players were as follows: Halves: L. Greenwood. W. Gardner. L. Houghton: Fly- ing-Wing: J. Cossey: Snap: J. Ditta: lnsirles, W. Hately, J. Roach: Middles: J. Richards, D. Sutterby: Outsides: E. Bignell, D. Ritchie: Quarter: R. Cahiil: Subs.: H. Laine, C. Den- nis, G. MacKenzie. R. Parkinson, E. Barry, j. Connor. W. Fry, G, Lunau. M. Herriott, j. Winton: Water Boy: IJ. Dobson. Coach: Mr. W, Doidgeg Trainer: .-Xrchie Grant: Man- agers: Tom. Barry and Gordon Beedham. No one can say that we did not try. be- cause we did. and. considering the size. weight and experience of other teams, we did ex- ceedingly well. It may interest you to know that the Bantam championship was won by Riverdale. the junior championship was won by Danforth Tech.. and the Senior Champ- ionship was won by Malvern. All these teams were in our group, which shows the stiff com- petition we played against. The hardest workers on the team were: Greenwood. Houghton. Hately, Sutterby. Big- nell. Gardner. Cahill, Richards and Cossey, and frequently they found their names listed as stars of the game. Houghton seemed to be the jack of all positions as he played in every position in the backfield and held down a position on the outside wing. 1 'r . .. ig JUNIOR RUGBY Top Row: W. Fry. J. Ditta. J.

Greenwood was the best half back on the team, and, at running back kicks and on end runs, he does not take second place to any junior half-back. In the opinion of many fans, Cossey has been rated as the most improved player and should give a great performance next season We must not overlook the courage of our insides. Hately and Roach. who nearly killed themselves many times trying to splatter their towering opponents over the ground. The spectacular tackling of Bignell. Rit- chie. Fry, Cahill and Houghton was a thrill- ing sight for Eastern Commerce Supporters. Very few points were scored against Com- merce .luniors in the last half of a game and here the tide of superiority would usually change, but a lead is si very hard thing to reduce no matter how hard you play. A very good suggestion was given that we play the last half first and then play as well in the first half as we played in the last half, but we could not figure out how to do it. The rugby season will come again in Sep- tember. 1937. but this time we will have Eighty-six the services of the Bantams and Cossey and Lunau, which should help us secure a play- off position. Rugby is one of the best games invented. so once again I say. Watch Eastern Com- merce go to town next year. BANTAM RUGBY Due to the fact there wasnt enough ma- terial to form a senior team. for the first time in Eastern Commerces history. a bantam team was organized with Mr, Carter as coach and Maurice Hewitt as assistant coach. The training period was short. but Coach Hewitt had the plays down pat. Although the scores were mostly one-sided, they did not indicate the play of the games. River- dale. Tech.. and Malvern were great teams and our line did not contain half as much beef as did those of our opponents. but lfllis made up for a lot of us. Riverdale took us 32-O in the first game and we have no alibis to offer. In the second game. which was played on a swampy field.

This was the first major score against Riverdale in two years. Malvern was a tricky team, and scored a win the first meeting with Lady Luck help- ing them along considerably. The second' ses- sion they looked like a real team and cer- tainly deserved the win, Tech. was the heavy team, and while we held them off for a while, they squeezed out a win. The last game of the season with Tech. was when we showed top form. In the last quarter. Harris and Porto moved the yard sticks seven times in a row. and Talbot threw a perfect short forward pass to Chis- holm for a touchdown. These boys are experienced now, and should show class next year when they graduate to the junior ranks, under the able management of Mr. Doidge. SOCCER With the approach of the fall season, many boys' thoughts turn to rugby, but this year soccer also enjoyed our whole-hearted support. EASTERN ECHO Many of our able-bodied boys turned out with enthusiasm to uphold the prestige of their form, climaxing one of the finest sea- sons of soccer held at this school. Under the competent leadership of Lorne Maclntyre, the boys of 4G could not be de- nied the championship, and for the second year in succession they were the crowned champions of the school, defeating 2D in a bitterly-fought game. the score being 3-Z after over-time. IG led by J. Richards became the lower school champions by defeating 10 with a score of 2-O. Because of their fine playing throughout the season. IG certainly deserved to win. The players of these two winning teams were presented with crests, and the soccer committee. consisting of J. Spofford, J. Cas- tello and W. Mcfieely. received leaders' crests, INTERFORM BASKETBALL The interform basketball league was con- ducted this year with great success under the guidance of Mr. Carter. Mr. Copp and a Eighty-seven committee compost-cl uf rl. llitta, M. Herriott, M, Connor and li. Tnlliot, The various teams showed enthusiasm throughout the basketball season and availed themselves of every op- portunity to practice. much of which was clone in the lunch periods. A preliminary series was organized for the purpose of getting the teams in shape for the regular schedule. After many thrilling Qames, J, Roach was able to lead 10 to the first form championship, R. McCutcheon guided ZD into the charmed circle for sec- ond forms, and A. Marr again captained the 4G Buccaneers to the school honours. BOYS' SWIMMING CLUB This year the same policy has been car- ried out as last year. Each Thursday the swimming club meets, under the direction of Mr. Douglas, for a scheduled list of events. These are handicaps. with the handicaps changing each week according to past per- formances of the swimmers. Each week also has 'its relay races and water-polo games. Rib- bons are awarded to the event winners. These Q are in the school colours: 1st red. Znd gold. and 3rd black, with the printing on each varying to form the school colours. Points are also awarded: 5 for lst place, 4 for Znd. 3 for 3rd, 2 for 4111, and 1 point for enter- ing the event. At the end of the season, a cup is awarded to the highest point winner and medals to the two runners-up. At present it is a very close race for top honours be- tween Bill Stanley with 31 points, Harry jen- nings with 29 points and Trevor Heard with 28, The points of the other swimmers vary as follows: Black: 25, lNIcCutcheon: 21. Lin- do: 19. Lambeth: 18, Legault: 18, Fyfe: 13, Soul: 13, Dobson: 11, Graham: 11, Taylor: 6, Buttrey: 6, Hohs: 5, and Irvine: 3. There have been several swimming meets with other schools and several are planned to take place shortly. As there are no seniors this year in the club, all the meets have been for juniors and Intermediates. The first. against Jarvis, turned out a triumph for the junior team with a final score of 26 to 14 in favour of Commerce. Danforth Tech. Jun- iors and Intermediates also had to acknow- ledge the Easterners' 37 to their 29. The last BOYS' SWIMMING CLUB Standing: R. MacKenzie. T. Heard, L. Fullerton, Mr. P. Douglas. C. Fyfe, R.

Eighty-eight EASTERN ECHO meet to date was an under-sixteen-years-oh age competition with York Memorial. This seemed to suit the boys even better for they scored 47 to their visitors' 10 points. The teams are looking forward with keen interest to the city championships to be held at Hart House. Last year they were nosed out of first honours in the junior events by Humberside Collegiate, but they feel confi- dent of putting up a stronger team this year. THE GYM TEAM There has been a large turnout this year for both the junior and senior gym. teams, and a great deal of good material has been secured. With this material we hope to de- velop an ideal gym team to entertain at a concert or two and possibly take part in an exhibition. The juniors are looking forward to next year, when they hope to be improved enough to compete for the trophy cup presented to the best all-round gymnast. Last year this cup was won by Bill Finlay, who is not with us this year. However, last years seniors, D. Fisk. L. Houghton. S. Vousden and 3. Rhodes are still with the team and they are doing their best to help the juniors in the work, and at the same time prepare them- selves for our annual Gym Tournament. TRACK AND FIELD Pre-season training was carried on in the boysl gymnasium in the early spring as the school yard was not yet dry. The boys were given the use of the gym and the equip- ment after school hours on certain days of the week. They were also given instructions on how to train for the various events for the coming field day. As soon as the back cam- pus was dry, the field equipment was trans- ferred to the yard, and under the able direc- tion of Mr. F. Schnick, the boys were in- strieted in the correct method of using the equipment to good advantage, -s GYM TEAM Bottom Row: G. Venn, E. Sadler. G. Andrews. R. Walkerdine. J. Fraser, S. Dean, R.

The preliminzlries of all the field events, such as the jumps, discus throw and shot put were run off successfully in the school yard. to save time in the finals. The regular Track and Field Day was held in May at the Broadview Y. M. C. A. Track, and a large number of spectators attended, even though it did rain part of the time.

THE SUN GOD'S LAST GESTURE lctlllfillllflll from payr oO.l Hanging low in the heavens in a last des- perate attempt to warm the frigid North, Old Sol is pouring out his rays with glorious in- tensity, rays which cause the chopping sea of ice to sparkle like a sea of floating dia- monds, rays which fill the hearts of the Es- kimos with fleeting warmth and gladness. The Eskimos break into a long wailing chant because their mighty God is sinking rapidly into the depths of the sea. The waves below him dance and splash with glee as they think of another victory over the great god. Once more they are going to swallow him. The gods glory is waning and the golden ribbons fade slowly, then die. Suddenly with- out warning Old Sol takes his final plunge and is lost in the seething waters that roll and tumble victoriously as they devour him. The prostrated Eskimos wail their farewell prayers to the extinguished god and shiver with the fear of seven months' darkness. lk its bk Illr.

Now. no exposure of longer than 10 seconds is neces- sary. and most pictures can be taken with an exposure of from IXZS of a second to 2 seconds. The superpanchromatic or speedy til requires only lg the time for Plenachrome or Yerichrome films, and Vi the time for the slow Regular film. A summary of the merits and costs of these three methods of indoor photography follows: Phototlash: Costly ll5c for each bulb, good for only one exposurej, but with it you can take tine group pictures, and even most action pictures indoors. The pictures on page 55, Four Balls of lYool , Study Period , and Employment Conference were taken with Flash Bulbs. Phototlood tOrdinaryl and Photoliood tNo. Zl: Cheap. The Ordinary Phototlood will give brilliant illumination for about 40 pictures tit will burn for a total of 2 hoursj, while the No, 2 gives twice the illumin- ation of the Ordinary H500 wattsl and Ninety-two will burn for o hours. The prices are 2Sc and 50c each respectively. With the No. Z Bulb, snapshots can be taken with a box camera. Now you can't say the photo-supply experts havent come half-way to meet youf lf you want to take indoor pictures by daylight, this is possible with any kind of camera, and is quite easy. All it requires is that you take an experimental roll or two in advance with the camera you intend to use. Once you have gained the experience this will give, you are ready. with the help of an exposure table, for any indoor assign- ment. The pictures Corridor , The Master- piece , Saturday Bath , and Going Down- stairs? were all taken in the school by natural light, Don't forget, you box-camera users, that the principle employed by a 5200.00 camera is just the same as that used in yours, and that, if you have a box camera with a good lens, your pictures will require a little longer exposure, but may equal or surpass in interest and genuine picture value the results of the former, wherever taken, indoors or outdoors. May I offer, in closing, two further sug- gestions. To each camera user reading this. I would like to say-First, if an exposure rec- ord of some sort kept over a period of a year of each of the pictures you take, especi- ally of those experimenting along new lines you will notice a swift improvement in your camera sense and judgment. And finally, if in doubt as to whether a picture is possible or not, try it. The modern camera, loaded with modern film, is a fine instrument, and, if you will give it a chance, will surprise you by its ready adaptability to many of the most unfavourable conditions. Use your camera more! 7 Yictims of the latest 'flu epidemic should pity Mr. Roosevelt, Poor man! Hes had a code in his head for the last four years. S- Pk PF illr.
