hKs in everyone. Now that she is delivered from the bondage of bell and clock, we wish her the best of health and happi¬ ness in the pursuit of her many in¬ terests. H.M.S. ADDITIONS TO KELVIN STAFF Among Our new teachers this year we have Mr. Sellors in the art room. Mr. Sellors came to us from Aberdeen, and their loss was certainly our gain, for he has proved himself to be an ex¬ cellent addition to our staff, in every manner. Miss Wallace came to Kelvin from Laura Secord. Previously she was an “exchange” teacher in Richmond, Eng¬ land. Before going overseas she taught at the General Wolfe. Miss Wallace made her place in all our work and activities very rapidly. In the person of Mr. Cross, wo have a former Kelvin student back with us. It is Room 14’s privilege to claim him as their class teacher. He taught at the General Wolfe prior to coming to Kelvin. We welcome Mr. Cross back to Kelvin. We convey our heartiest welcome to Mr. Hughes, of Room 28, an addition to the language department. Coming to us from Luxton School, he success¬ fully coached our speedskating teams to victory. It has not taken Mr. Hughes long to make his place with us. Congratulations To: 1.
