Smalley Thou art gone . . . but on my heart Deeply hath sunk the lesson thou hast given And shall not soon depart. Wilfred Sadler 1884-1951 On July 14, 1951, Wilfred Sadler, Principal of our School from 1921-1949, passed on to his eternal rest. Regrettably, his richly deserved retirement was but a brief two years and clouded by a lingering illness. He came to Winnipeg from Scotland in 1910. Holding an M.A. degree from St. Andrews University and having had eight years’ teaching experience in Dundee and Montrose, he was appointed to the Winnipeg teaching staff. In 1921 he became Principal of the Maple Leaf Junior High School (renamed Hugh John Macdonald in 1930), where he remained until his retirement in 1949. During his thirty-nine years of service with the Winnipeg schools, he played a distinguished part in furthering the cause of education. Being a man of keen intellect, wide knowledge, and independent spirit, he had little regard for current practice simply because it was anchored in tradition. He held certain definite beliefs as to the functions of education. To him, the school was a sort of laboratory in democratic living, and he had an un¬ shakable faith in the fundamental decency of boys and girls. He believed that the school should try to develop in the pupils a sense of responsibility, a love of fair play and an honest questioning attitude of mind. During his principalship of twenty-eight years he tried to realize his beliefs. His interest in his pupils followed them into life after school. He often recalled with pride the names of his pupils who had achieved success in public life or in the professions. Among these were Mr. Justice Ralph Maybank, the Hon. Mr. Stuart Garson, now Minister of Justice, the Doctors A. and M. Hollenberg, and others. He was equally pleased to meet those who occupied positions in the ordinary walks of life and to learn that they were doing well. In his dealings with his staff, he was always mindful of their rights as well as their duties. He tried to make it possible for each teacher on his staff to do his best. His contribution to education extended far beyond the walls of his own school. He served on the Advisory Board of the Department of Education nine years, six of which as its chairman. At all times, whether the matters before the Board related to the programme of studies, examinations, or the certification of teachers, he gave freely of his time and talent. His sense of citizenship caused him to take part in many organizations outside of the teaching profession. He was a keen observer of the passing scene and did not stand aloof from the rest of community. He was for many years a member of the local branch of the League of Nations Society and later the United Nations Society, the local Scientific Club, the Family Bureau, the St. James School Board, and was Commissioner for the Western District of the Boy Scouts Association. In all these organizations which he served without ostentation and without fear, his sane judgment and broad mindedness were respected by his associates. In his personal relations he was genial, gracious and sincere. His utterances were vigorous, instructive and stimulating. Sham and pretense he abhorred. His confidence was tempered by a sincere humility. His was truly the cosmopolitan mind—ready to see the good in all without regard to race, color or creed. He will ever be remembered as a distinguished educator, a broad-minded citizen, and as a generous warm - hearted humanitarian. His example will endure, an inspiration to all whose lives he labored to enrich. ■ Left-Right GRADE IX A ROOM 8 First Row Eddie Romaniuk, Dennis McMullin,Eugene Zinco.Mike Krywy,Harold Hildebrandt.L Second Row Lucy Lechman, Mary Pittarelli, Doris Vandel.Steffie Demedchuck, Mr. D.

Maybe the houses where we live look old and weather-beaten, but thera ' is a certain beauty in each if we would only study thorn. Although they are old now, at one time they were considered fashionable. Like our generation, young people consider tho elder people old-fashioned, just like these houses and forget that they were young once themselves. Living in our house all of my life, I havo become attached to tho district and its frienlly faces. Aci-oss from our house.“we haven’t the usual row of hou bs facing us, but the city’s well known General Hospital. As most of you know, in front of it a park with welcoming trees and Howes ' s. in sdmner it is pleasing to s g somo pationta, who have progressed, bCing allowed to come out into “the sunshine and smell the gorgeous fragrance of tho flowors. Being‘allowed to cane out into the park, brings a ray of sunshine into tho livos of tho patients. In the summer the park is like a green velvet carpet and in the winter is like a cape ' of ermine, I believe our park with the blue sky and filmy, white clouds behind it would make a picturesque scene for any artist to paint and be prottd of. In tho sunner wc see nurses in their while starched uniforms wheeling patients in their wheelchairs around the park. At the side of tho hospital, we often see doctors and nurses playing tennis together on tho tennis“c curt in their spare time. Wo ore certainly centered in a medical area. The neighbours seen much friondlior in tho summer, because they got to know each other bettor, when they talk over the fence, or when they arc cutting ar watering tho lawn. In our district there are quite a few olomentaiy schools. Wo see many youngsters wol ' ing to afid frem school. Studying tho or-rpressions of these youngers faces cculd be quite a hobby for seme person. t. At the back of ouf ' liouse, we have the city’s famous Weston Bakeries. Wo often smell the gorgeous fragrance of bread, buns, and cakes iich would make any person hungry.. I think that we have a good transportation service on our route. By taking tho William bus, which stops quite near our house, we can transfer to another bus and got into the heart of the downtown area. Looking at our house on a sunny day, one can soe equisite patterns i arming shadows of lace by tho troos. I think everybody iikes“a district. . ' Jhich is beautified by flowers with their smooth, velvety petals, sweet f ' •agrance and gorgeous colours. If you studied our district, you would find that it is not tho houses, which make up the district, but the people and what nature has provided that makes the district what it is.

By They T.e clman Are you happy in school? I am, and I’m no bettor than you, so why should you ho unhappy? I don’t li.ko“homowork, I don’t think anybody does, but still if we don’t work wo don’t learn. Maybe it’s the toachors you dislike. Teacher; can be fun at times , that is if you keep on the good side of them. After all they are not ogres; they just ; pretend to be strict (at times). Some pupils always says the teachers always pick on me. Do they? Or do you just think thoy do? - Many pupils talk back to the teachers. They don’t moan to bo spiteful thoy just like to do it. Many pupils say, Why should I go to school? You can answer that by yourself. You go to school to loarn, after all, we tho pupils“of to¬ day are tho doctors, lawyers, nurses, etc. of tomorrow. So school is quite important oven though most of us don ' t like it. Nobody can be happy all“the time; problems of some kind will always come up, but chin up, you’ll live. If you have a grudgo against a certain teacher, hobody expects you to like him (or her) but does that mean you shouldn’t like any of the teachers? Be a sport. If you are asked, tc do something for your class or school, cooperate; don’t say ’no’ unless you can’t do the job you have been r .asked to do. • . � _ . Get along with your classmates.

By Mary Pittarolll It is a surprising and somewhat shocking realization, that many students honostiy think they aro studying, when in reality, they are just wasting time. For instance, one student will tell you ho simply « an’t study without the radio blaring. But, ask him a question, and he ’ll look at you quizzically as if you were talking in some foreign language. You can’t learn the uses of the comma while following ycur favorite mystery story. To study, you must concentrato. Perhaps another student will sit down and really study for ten minutes. Then, she decided it’s time for a snack. After enjoying a tasty repast, and a long chatty phone call with hor friend, she is ready for another short dose. She didn’t sit still ' for more than ten minutes at a time. And yet, in the morning she’ll look up at you innocently and say, I thought I’d never finish my homework last night. It took so long.” Then we have the social butterfly - in one minute and out the next. Sfio is the typo you’ll find studying in Snatches between periods. It has“alwgys amazed mo that sho can learn the little bit she does amid such clamour and confusion. There are always some who wait until the last minutei They do their studying before going to bed, fighting a losing battle with sleep and time. I,ast but not least, there is the type Who thinks that when studying is the time to givo yourself a complete manicure with all the trimmings. All this while learning to decline Latin nouns? I could go on forever, 1 ut I think I’vo made my point clear. To study, you need a quiet atmosphere in which you can concentrate. Sot your wholo mind on the subjoct at hand, and don’t stop till it’s finished, no matter what happens. Do this and you can truly say, ,r Ycs, I study.” HOMEWORK By Biyan Collard Oil why was homowork moant for me, A kid wh likDS to play, and see The simple things in life.

BY Richmond loo Lifo is fall of many, many different things - fanny things, and not funny things, niaryoilous things, and not marvellous things, good things, ... and toachors. Toachors aro the Machiavollis of c-ur time, who think of all the tricky and ruthloss moans they could employ ifTorder to extend their powor. “They hove boon, and arc at present, controlling most of the timo, and influencing tho mind of tho lowly oroature-tho boy or girl attending school. As a young child of six mamma ' s llttlo darling” has fallon into tho graspifig hands of toachors who troublo his mind with A,B,C’s, doptrivo his fun-fillod leisure timo with ghastly homowork, and toach him unnocossary facts about unnocossary things. School is so boringl Sometimos a toachcr who craves for tho sound of his own melodious voico may utter account loss nunTJor of u ique sounds and expressions for hours, and on completion, ho will abruptly say, ' “‘ Don ' t hand in a wholo volume when a fow words will do. ,f Is this an example, or a violation of his own laws? guito often they will bo loquacious enough to talk thirty-four“of tho thirty-five minute period t and then at this opportune t imo, toil us to copy down notes that aro on tho blackboard. Toachors aro groat organizers. They have a special volunteer system in which tho volunteer has complete confidence in his superiors, Of“courso, toachors are completely reliable, aren ' t they? - in this volunteor system, you are hand-picked for some disgr coful assignment. It works out fino for the teachers, but tho so-calle l volunteer never knows what may happen next. There are times when a ; tudent, by slioer accidont, forgets to do Ms homework, speaks out of burn, or has committed sano other minor crime. Poor pupils! Unfortunotoly, the dictator has many simple but offoctivo methods to copo with the inu-brpaker. A forget¬ ful student mey find himself scrawling out a tremendous number of signs and symbols which are to bo handed to tho teacher by the next day. You’ve done lines” before, havoMt you? The more persistent law-breaker however, is handlod more offoctivciy. The norvos on tho palms of tho student ' s hands may bo quickly stimulated by tho method famously knows as strapping. As each day whizzes by, tho teacher adds another pleasing, and most delightful day to his glorious past of teaching. “T3ocause“toachers have a most memorable past-timo , and tho Mghest of all heavenly jobs; it is no wonder that many a boy or girl has as his or her ambition to bee one a great teacher. However, after all that ' s boon said and done about teachers, I can honestly say“that they are a real asset to our pers ial life. Through them, and only through thorn, may be achieve our success in life.

THE aafiBCBTIfflE TKB STCRt I TIKE BEST By Christal Rogalski Of all the stories, hooks, magazines, and other articles I’ve read, I find that Bight Cousins ' has boon my choice as the best. Not the best in Literature, perhaps, but in the way of just plain reading for pleasure. This book, writton by the well known L°uise May Alcott, has something more in it than just a story. Rose, the little girl around which the story is centered, has no mother and has rocontly lost her father. Such is the case of many a boy or girl oven if they lose them in a different.way. Wo, who live in a froo country, porhaps do not roalizo this for we never have to foar that our parents will bo taken from us. This point, touched me very much but tho girl herself gave the reader very much to think about. Being quite young in age did not stop her from being what one might call a girl that can keep herself from temptation jt t to help others. For ozamplo, when in her ' toons. She began to-Wear oarrings. She received a pair of tiny onos frem her uncle. Although they wore very dear to her, sho was willing to give thorn up so as to stop two of her cousins from smoking. “Roso folt as though sho lovod semo bettor than crthors inTier group- of roiativos but was ablo to hido this fooling. Very few people can do this and Rose was one of thoso fow. Sho also was a girl of groat patidneo and understanding. This was provofi during tho time when Mac almost lost his oyosight. For Rose it was a roal trial to koop from losing- her pationco with tins restless patient bocauso shd was the only one who cared, read, sang, ontortainod and took him for walks. Rose stood by him through thick and thin. Not many could koop up thoir. pationco to go through that. There wero many more important points but I think the ones mentioned boforo are tho most important. Why do I think so? Horo is why. How many timds must one roalizo that Roso was a model chiIdI Was she perfect? Corbainiy ' not, but sho triod to do what was right. Don’t you think that’s what can bo oxpoctod of all children? Reading this story has holpod mo to be a bit more considerate and pationt with others. What you got out of tho story•depends on ho? you road it. Tho points previously mentioned can’t help but bo seen. But a person that just reads it and has his mind“closod to the story may just find it interesting. To bo ablo “to got all there is of value in this stony one must Troop his mind open to all that is written on each page. You have to bo willing to tako to heart all that is said. Sooing this book has been so interesting to me, why don’t you try it. Samotimos stories can bo tho best toachors. Ralph iff.: But sir, I don’t deserve zoro on this exam.

Eight o ' clock has come once .again, and drearily and slowly I push the covers of my bed to one side.

After a three hour session of school it 3 s bacK home. from about ten after twelve to twenty to one I practice ity piano, and th§“way that I practice would make Mozart turn over in his grave and yell for mercy. After I finish what I call practicing I eat my lunch. As soon as I have luncheoned (if I may be high hat enough to call it that) I onco more hit the roa d to school. Someday I am going to hit the road onco too often, then it win hit back, After spending another two and one half hours in school, I once more collect my school and “ comic books and start for homo From four- to four fortyfive 1 quietly do my homework and othor work missed duo to reading comic books. Disposing of my school books for the ovoning, I set he table. Until supper is ready I practice my piano again. After supper I go to the drug store to meet the boys. ran there we go back to our glorious school. This time our bolovod school is not the quiet, peaceful learning placo that it is in the daytime. This time it is a riotous; roaring., bedlam. Yes, 5b is our sports club. Hero we indulge in tumbling, wooden her so jumping, basketball, floor hockey and wrestling. Around the hour of ten the boys and I, “who nee look like weary moth- oaten nags, cane staggering cut of the school and trip back to the drug store.

I feci that it is im¬ possible for mo to write them and it is only a waste of time. Though I try my best, the idoas don ' t como. It soems unreasonable to expect us to write essays.

THE SEARCHLIGHT 3 VISIT TO THE ART G J.TT Y By Lorno Johnston Sach year tho Manitoba Society of Artists presents an exhibition of paintings, prints and drawings by its members and by outside contribu¬ ting artists whoso works have passed a selection coimittee appointed by tho society ' s executive. Since this is tho senior society of Manitoba, its ' ' show ' usually contains the best work of the better artists. This year four classes wore given the opportunity of seeing the pictures displayed, 8A, 8B, 9A, 9B. My favorite landscape painting.in the Art Uali ary is End of the Day painted by C.F. Ashmore. It is a water color ainting of the end of a day after a hard day’s work on the farm. The _ :mer is unhitching four tired horses from a plough in a field, and nor. by a little colt is nibbling grass. Among the ninety-seven pictures on display, t re were sovoral portraits, A member of the Manitoba Society of Art s ' ts, Jean Eyden, pro¬ duced a splendid water color portrait of a smiling Id man, Mr. Kendal. You ' ve probably seen Mr. Kendal selling newspapers n the corner of Portage and Main in front of Child ' s Restaurant. H. is an old short man with a curly white beard. The artist, in his portrait, reveals the Santa Claus features of Mr. Kendal.

His speech dealt mainly with what tho law is and what it means to the people. After Mr. McWilliams finished speaking. Judge Lindal introduced Mr. Justico ' TJ.B.

Ton Molnar. and pmcst Roimor On May 29th our class 9D, had the privilege of being visited by Mr. Mullahs of the National Bbiploymont Service. Ho told us that there were about 1200 summer jobs available to the boys and .girls of BTinnipog. Ho strossod tho difference botwoon summer jobs and permanent job3. Summer jobs aro those that aro deno during the months of July and August. In this case tho student just takes any job which pays a fair amount of money. TJhon a person takos a permanent job he must censidor it carefully and find out whether thoro is a future in store for him. If you register at tho Bnploymont Service for a job be honest about your abilities and consider the k±ncl of work yoz would like to do. If there is not a job available look for one, When applying for a ob don ' t take any of your friends with you. Be neat and act polltoly. If you cannot got a job by yoursolf chock regularly at tho Employment Office for the kinds of jobs open. SCHOOL IN GERMANY By Jerry Diwishok School in Gormany is different to that in Canada. Since school starts at 8 o ' clock, the children havo to got up early. Whon entering their classroom they sit in thoir dosks till their toachor ccrncs In. Tho toac her chocks tho attendance, roads a story out of tho Bible, and then all stand ahd ropoat tho Lord ' s Prayer. Each period lasts for. one hour, which is foiiowod by a short inborn is si on. Tho boys and girls bring thoir own lunch to school. They oat it in two roccssos fifteen inlhutcs long. Each school has a gymnasium . which is dividod into two halls, one for tho boys and one for tho girls. Tho gymnasium is occupied by each class for two hours each week in the aftornoon. The Gorman childron I 1 V 0 won up to Six days of work and one day of rost. They go to school on Saturday and have only Sunday of which is usually spent in church. But tho time is well made up whon it caiios to holidays. Thoro arc more holidays during tho year which aro also longer. No oxans arc written, but marks aro given from exorcise bocks which aro marked ovory morning or afternoon. The children aro promoted at Eastor and start a now school yoar after thoir throu. wock holiday. Our girls ' senior Team had a very successful year of Volley-ball this year.

This writo-up is to givo you an idea on how this sport is cairiod on. in ovory good natch thoro should be a villain and a horo. This adds to tho excitement of the fight. Tho grado 9D boys of Hugh John Macdonald SehooI aro just tho pocplo capable of supplying us with this, without actually doing any bodily ham to one another. This doos not moan that tho boys fix their fights, as tho torn is us ed in the wrestling world, not by a long shot. It is just that tho boys like to wrestle without toaring oach other apart. Tho odd tino thoro will - be a blooding nose, but noscblocds can cano just as easily in a basketball, football, or hockey game. For instance, just a while ago I hoard of a boy breaking his thumb in a basket¬ ball game. The match of which I an spoaldng pitted the strength of villain Dirty Dusok McCluro, against tho stamina and skill of one Lawrcnco Wakaruk. The fight was on. Both boys faced oach other, sizing up his opponent. All of a sudden McClure rushed at Wakaruk catching him off guard. He lifted Wakaruk in tho air ard threw him over his back, Wakaruk recovered in time, howovor, to grab hold of ono of McClure -s legs;-. ' and pulled him to tho canvas. Tho fight continued with both wrestler s : tumbling around on the mats, neither boating the otter. Thoro woro timos whon McCluro would turn to Ms dirty tactics while reforoo John Ansoll wasn t looking. For instance, McCluro dragged Wakaruk over to tho odgo of tho matefond used His bare knucklos to eye gouge. This action was witnessed;only by myself. —j —jj -i Another ono of Dirty Dusok s foul tactics is hair pulling, but ho pullod that stunt once too often. McCluro had a grip on Wakaruk S ' hair whon Wakaruk landed a solid blow to McCluro s abdomen. Tills cured McClure for tho rest of tho fight. Ono of tho Mgh points cane when McClurcr had Wakaruk s left leg ih a scibsor grip. By semo cute trick, Wakaruk escaped from this painful hold and applied the prossure of tho sane grip to McClure s right arm. McCluro howovor, sonsing tho force of his grip, managod to got his loft hand in lino with Wakaruk s faco. He thon lot looso with a flying-loft, cIbsod“fist and all, which connected solidly on Wakaruk’s nose. Roi.rco Ansoll called a fivo ninuto tino-out duo to a nosoblood. In sizing up both wrostlors, i could say thatllcCluro is a good wrostior who, liko Wakaruk, sho s considorablo skill in breaking holds, hhkaruk, J who incidentally is tailor than HcCIuro, lias a few noro tricks up his sleovo, and knows whon and how-to apply then. Wakaruk is stronger than McClure, therefore giving his holds noro forco. Putting aside these advantages, McClure proves that ho s quite capable Wakaruk. of standing up to iron this write-up, you got the idea that McClure is a no-good guy. On the contrary, he is roally quite nice, whon not using dirty tactics. .frostling is a good sport, and as for ny opinion, if it carries any weight, I would propose that greater efforts be ta ken to further tho development of intcr-rocn wrestling in Winnipog Schools.
