From Left to Right: Liz Camp, Co-editor; Lynne Houwing, Advertising Editor; Felicity Smith, Co-editor. EDITORS ' NOTE Dear Reader, We sincerely hope that you will enjoy this year ' s Samara 78. The commence- ment of the year saw the designing of a new cover by Christine Humphreys; we hope that you will find it to your satisfaction. Another new addition to the year- book was the Teachers ' Questionnaire from which we were able to write a brief synopsis of each member of the faculty (the truth comes out, girls! !). We have noticed that in past years the Juniors are, to a great extent, left out of Samara, and that the magazine seems disproportionately oriented towards the Senior School. We have tried to correct this by devoting more pages to Junior activi- ties and sports (now the Grade Eight girls will NEVER forget that week in Ap- ril when a class of Ashbury boys descended upon them!). We have also tried to include in this edition of Samara the changes that have occurred at Elm- wood during the year - such as, for example, the new look of Closing. Most of all we have attempted to capture the moments which have made this year unique and that, in times to come, will distinguish it from any other. When you ' re old and gray we hope Samara 78 will help you to relive the many expe- riences you have had at Elmwood. We will be pleased to hear your comments on this year ' s book, and the best of luck to next year ' s Editors, Candy Warren and Beth Swift.

Wanda Carole Schmidt, or Mommy as she is often known as, comes from Minto, New Brunswick. Apart from teaching Maths and English, Mrs. Schmidt stud- ies such complex Urban Concepts as how to get from Elmwood to the I. G. A. Her outside activities include collecting Brownie packs and stars, and doing arts and crafts. Mrs. Schmidt would also like us to mention that she owns Lutino Budgie named Bird (How enterprising Mrs. Schmidt!) P.J. Scott (Pen), place of origin is England. Her earliest am- bition in life was to be a gardener, then an archaeologist and later to explore the world. In those early days she was often heard to murmur Today the garden, tomorrow the world . Mrs. Scott ' s interests, apart from teaching English and Drama, include playing tennis, eating bananas and greengages while listening to Claude Debussy playing the harmonica. She also firmly believes in ' Woman ' s Understated Superiority ' . Mrs. Turkington hails from the Emerald Isle and has been teaching History and World Politics for longer than she would like to remember! Her many talents are usually expended on taking those budding Elmwood diplomats to Commonwealth Conferences and U.N. Conferences, as well as driving a rac- ing green Honda Civic. According to popular belief Mrs. Turkington speaks Gaelic in her sleep. Madame White est nee a Brighton, Angleterre. Elle enseigne Le French. Ses interets sont le sewing, le quilting, le reading et le loafing. Elle aime beaucoup le food, elle parle beaucoups de food, elle aime toujours dire II faut vivre pour manger pas manger pour vivre. Apart from all this Mme. White can often be heard early in the morning (12 noon) mumbling Where am I going? Who am I? Never mind, Mrs. White, if you teach French what can you expect? Unfortunately, owing to a previous engagement at Carnegie Hall with the Elmwood Philharmonic, Mrs. Chapin was not available for interviewing.
