SAMARA 21 Peggy McLaren. — ' ' Toil is the law of life, and its best fruit . Peg is our baby, although she is trying eight of her Senior Matric. She very thoughtlessly decided to get measles when we were in the middle of writing these notes — all our sympathies to you, Peg, but you really didn ' t miss a thing. She is headed for Switzerland next year to become a great skier (to quote her), and to do a little studying as a side line. She is determined to become an aviatrix, or failing that, to drive a train — there is certainly nothing small about her ambitions. Stop Press. — It being a woman ' s privilege to change her mind. Peg has just informed us that she may be going to Paris instead of Switzerland. Well, folks, you ' ll see her if, and where you see her! Marion Ellsworth. — ' ' Her love of youthful sports . Marny joined us as a House Senior half way through the first term, after a bout with her appendix. Preferring the society of their measles to that of the prefects, much to our chagrin she and Pat retired to the infirmary for a few weeks after Christmas. She is a prominent member of Fry House, being their Sports Captain and Pat ' s very able assistant. She is planning to go to school in Paris next year, that is if she can be persuaded to get off the boat, and it will take some persuading, from what we gather. Her none too lofty ambition is to ride an aquaplane on her head. She will probably end by being a circus acrobat ! Her weaknesses are sports in general, ice-cream cones, radios, and curling peoples ' hair with tongs. HEAD GIRLS Ethel Southam; Genevieve Bronson.

20 SAMARA MoiRA Leathem. — All kin ' o ' smily round the lips . Minnie is Head of Keller for the second year, an honour that we think has not been accorded to any other girl and she is determined that Keller shall again win the House Shield. Every now and then she deserts us on a Friday afternoon to honour Montreal with her presence. Although on these occasions we miss her at the tea-hour, we are partly consoled by the delicious selection of food with which she provides us (Not until we have duly paid our 10c, we might add). Minnie, like Yennifer and Ethel, has spent all her schooldays at Elm wood, and we are sure that when she leaves this year she will be greatly missed. She is 3 of a very select form, commonly known as Senior Arts. The other % are the aforementioned Yennifer and Ethel, and it is this minute but very import- ant form that causes Miss Martin many anxious moments. Patricia Galt. — Thought is deeper than speech ' Pat is the competent Head of Fry House, and up till now she has succeeded in leading Fry to the front ranks. She is the only dancer amongst us, and it is with awe and pride that we watch our colleague gracefully fht around the stage. We are eagerly looking forward to the time when Pat will come to German class with her homework all done. (In case Miss Elliot has not noticed this fact, dear Readers, please do not mention it !) Another of Pat ' s misdemeanors is that if a piano is not to be found she drums incessantly on any avail- able piece of furniture. Very good for her music we are sure, but for the furniture — ? We have at last found the secret of Pat ' s scholastic successes — she wears glasses to impress the mistresses! She glibly informs us that she does not need to wear them, and then continues to do so — shame on you, Pat! Elizabeth McLelland. — Her unextingui- shed laughter shakes the sky . Liz spurned the office of House Senior after a trial of eight weeks, deciding that she would rather wear a prefect pin. We always did think she had good taste! She is Fiction Librarian and valiantly tries to extract twenty-five cents a term from her customers. As Sports-Captain of Keller, and Vice-Sports Captain of the school, she exhibits her sporting instincts to the full. Liz is the only one of this year ' s officers who is coming back next year — Good Luck to you, Liz, and may your success continue! When next we hear of her it will probably be as a famous jockey in the Grand National or a newspaper reporter. Whichever you choose, Liz, don ' t forget at least to send your old friends an autograph.
