SAMARA 31 EDITORIAL (Continued from Page 8) friendi thronged to the school and, once Again gave us their unfailing support and helped us to make the event a success « We were very pleas- ed • and proud, too, we confess - to be able to haod over to the ' Save the Children Fund the sum of one thousand dollars The staff of Samara feel that we owe our readers an apology for making them wait so long for their magazine. Owing to several printing difficul- ties, it was impossible to print the magazine at all last year. But, feel- ing it was important to have a record of last year, we have endeavoured to combine in this copy of Samara the school reports of both years. This year it is impossible to print Samara in the usual way. We are, therefore, experimenting with a new process of printing. We hope it will meet with the approval of all our readers. In the past we have been given invaluable assistance in printing Samara by Mr. Rowley S. Hooper. Since our last publication, the Photo Gel- atine Engraving Co. has moved from Ottawa to Toronto, and so the time has come to attempt a magazine with- out his help. All former magazine staff members will remember with grateful appreciation the keen in- terest and extremely helpful support that Samara has received over a period of many years from Mr. Hooper. For this we all owe him our most sincere thanks. Grateful thanks are also extended to Miss Chappell and Miss MacAskill for their cooperation and hard work which made this magazine possible. The time is fast approaching when some of us will be closing the door of ElnNvood behind us for the last time as Elmwoodians. But, no matter how far away our various paths of life lead us, Elmwood and all con- nected with her will always hold a cherished spot in our hearts. To those who remain, we say only that we hope you will find as much hap- piness and pride as we have in attending Elmwood. JANET CALCWHELL (Con t from Page 25) chasing mice in her room, she spends a great deal of her time feeling a- round to turn off alarm clocks going off elsewhere, but we understand, Jan senior metric affects people that way Her future is indefinite but Elmwood will feel a great loss with her guid- ing influence removed.

32 SAMARA 1 Ckristmas Tea and Entertainment In aid of the Save The Ckildren Fund If there is one day when Elmwood shines, it is the day of the Annual bazaar, for that is the day when the when the projects which the girls have been working on for weeks come to their fulfilment. This year, because of the scarcity of certain materials and other diffi- cult conditions, we decided to call our fete, Tea and Entertainment. We wanted to be per feet ly fair to our visitors and not to lead them to expect too much; however, in the end the bazaar was fundamentally the same as it has been in previous years. Last year (December 1945) nine hun- dred dollars were j aised for the ••Save the Children Fund. In spite of handicaps, this year (December 1946) Elmwood was able to send one thous and dollars to the same cause. Miss MacLean again managed the sale of tickets, assisted by Angela Christensen and form representatives. Miss Chappell headed the raffle comnit tee with Daphne Wurtele assist- ing. Many lovely raffles were dona- ted and the school would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who presented gifts. Miss Dixon resumed her post of tea mistress and with the aid of the senior girls, made that department a great success. The sale of candy and jam was led by Miss Adams with the help of Margot Peters. As usual this department was one of the most popular. Mademoiselle Juge directed the hand-craft table; Miss Johnston and Miss MacAskill helped in the very successful organization of this com- mittee. The white elephant table was super- vised by Mrs. Hancock. Mary Patteson and form representatives assisted her. Thanks to the many donations and to efficient cooperation throughout the school this table made a good profit. The book-stall, under the able management of Margaret Maclaren, did a brisk trade in second-hand books. The upper cloak-room was turned into a check-room which was effici- ently operated by Wendy Hughson and her committee. The small check-room fees added up to a substantial con- tribution to the FUnd. During the afternoon, the child- ren of the first and second forms presented a Nativity play; the lead- ing roles were taken by ■ ' lar gar et Gill and Judith Kelloch. The play, which was charming in its child-like sim- plicity and reverence, was directed by Viis s MacAski 11. Fo 1 lowi ng this , Fry House presented the winning House play, ' Thirty Minutes in a Street. ' Elmwood is indeed happy to think that in the past two years, the whole-hearted efforts of staff and pupils combined with the generous response on the part of parents and friends has made it possible for us, through these two events to give one thousand nine hundred dollars to the cause which all of us realize is so deserving of our supp ort.
