PHIL OMA THEAN SOCIETY During the year of 1911 Philo. has been a great success. This debating society is one of the most important factors of the old school, as it en- ables the fellows to become good speakers and debaters. V VVe had a good set of officers during the first term, and as a result the society was Well conducted, affording good speeches and hotly contested debates. At the beginning of the second term the ntembers of the second form were admitted and made their initiation speeches, some of which were -very funny but well spoken, con- sidering that it was their first attempt. The debates, which were held every Tues- day from 1.3o until 2.oo, are not only a source of pleasure to the fellows, but a great benefit to them in after years. It is the sincere wish ofthe class that this society be carried on with great success during the remaining years of its existence at the old school.
