As we join in that celebration, it is interesting to note that Kelvin’s history goes back just half-way to the time of the incorporation of our city, for the school was opened for classes in January 1912. Since that time Kelvin has contributed to the city thousands of graduates who have helped in making her history. Many of them wrote an imperishable story of valor and sacrifice in two World Wars, and some of them died that we might live in a free democratic society. Many others have achieved distinction in the business, professional and political life of our city, province or country and in the world beyond our borders. We would like to think that all of them have been good citizens. As a parting message then, to the members of our present graduating class, I would say, “The extent to which your curricular and extra-curricular activities at Kelvin have fitted you for civic responsibilities in a democracy, is the measure of our success as a staff. May all of you be worthy citizens not only of your city and country, but of the world-wide society of mankind.” May I now add a word of farewell to our Vice-Principal, Mr. W. K. Maxwell. A friendship of twenty-five years is impossible to assess, nor can I express how deeply I am indebted to him for his able, loyal and efficient assistance in administer¬ ing the affairs of this school. I can only say— “Thanks for everything, old friend; good health and happiness.” Page Three La Verendrye Sighting the Forks, 1738 ON YOUR SEVENTY-FIFTH ANNIVERSARY INCORPORATED AS A CITY NOVEMBER 8, 1873 Ifo-un, Zdita ' i Saul . ' JfHIS year the citizens of Winnipeg are celebrating the seventy-fifth anniversary of the incorporation of our city. Among those citizens are the students of Kelvin School whose ancestors, with faith and perseverance, built the city in which we live. During the past seventy- five years, with the staunch heart of a pioneer, Winnipeg has devel¬ oped from a frontier town into the fourth largest city in our great Dominion; its high ideals reflect the character and courage of the people who built it, and present a challenge to its citizens today. Have we, now students of Kelvin who are soon to be citizens of Winnipeg, the courage and determination to maintain those ideals? The events of the past year at Kelvin have amply proved that Kelvinites are rapidly developing these attributes of citizenship. You need only read the story between the lines of our year book to realize the truth of this statement. This year, the year book staff, in co¬ operation with the students, is producing a book which, we hope, is symbolic of the willingness of our fellow students to participate in all aspects of school life with enthusiasm and co-operation. The editorial staff has attempted to break away from the conventional pattern of previous books and to assemble what we hope is a more complete and up-to-date record of school life, with emphasis on pictures and articles which will appeal to the reader twenty years from now. Dividing pages, individual pictures of the graduates, and running headings are only a few innovations in our modernization plan. We have made these changes at the suggestion of our school¬ mates. The year book is certainly a stepping stone, even though a small one, over which Kelvinites may pass to more significant achieve¬ ments by which they may help their city, province, or country. Truly, we Kelvinites have been fortunate in having real oppor¬ tunities in all projects of our school and student council to test and strengthen our ability as members of the high school community. What we have attempted to do now as students, we can later build upon and add to as members of the larger community of Winnipeg. Therefore, with an enthusiastic school life as our foundation, let us follow in the footsteps of our ancestors and break new trails which will develop better citizens of which our city and our country may be proud.

' VN NOVEMBER 11, 1948, Kelvin students assembled before the Memorial to pay their annual tribute to those brave and courageous men and women who laid down their lives that we might live in peace. Here at Kelvin we honor especially the 284 former members of our staff and student body who died in the past two wars. The names of all former students and members of the staff who fought in both wars are inscribed on the walls and in the two Books of Remembrance as a constant reminder to us of our duty to them, to ourselves, and to those who come after us. In his remarks to the Grade XI and XII students, Dr. Willoughby stated that we must dedicate our¬ selves to the supreme task of building the peace, that it is not enough for these men and women to have fought so valiantly, and that we must see their sacrifice has not been in vain. We must search our hearts and foster in them attitudes of good-will, sympathy, and understanding towards all peoples. Mr. Maxwell, addressing the Grade X students, told them that we must work for peace, not take it for granted, and that we must never forget our debt to those who gave their lives that we might enjoy the rights and privileges of a world at peace. Both speakers urged that we learn everything possible about the United Nations, understand its strength and weak¬ nesses, and work to make it a success. When Dr. Willoughby and Mr. Maxwell had concluded their remarks, wreaths were placed before the Memorial by Mr. Kelly, Mr. Duncan, Mr. Kerr, and Mr. Kennemore. After a two- minute silence, the last post was sounded. During the service, the choir, under the direction of Miss Anderson, sang the ever-lovely “O Valiant Hearts.” The service closed with the singing of “O God, Our Help In Ages Past” by both choir and students.

For twenty-nine years he has carried on his work in the same quiet, efficient manner, and on June 30th, unless prevented, he will just as quietly slip out the side door as he has done for so many years. Wallace Kingdon Maxwell was born of United Empire Loyalist stock, in the town of Moore’s Mills, in the province of New Brunswick. There is no information available concerning his boy¬ hood days, but it can be assumed that he was a quiet child. It was not until he became custodian of the school funds that he learned to raise his voice in protest, and then only when some member of the staff attempted to raid the treasury for a cause of which he did not approve. After graduating from the Provincial Normal School in 1902 he taught for three years in his native province. “Go West, young man,” was taken as a personal command, and in 1905 he was teaching in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. One year later he came to Winnipeg, leaving the teach¬ ing profession to enter business. But the urge to teach was stronger than the desire to accumu¬ late wealth, and in 1920 he again took up his life work. During the succeeding years, by his quiet, thorough, and kindly manner, he made for him¬ self a place in the Kelvin School that may well be envied and admired by others. In September, 1945, he was appointed Vice-Principal, a position he filled with dignity and ability. He was well qualified, being an honor graduate in Arts from Manitoba, B.Paed. (Honors) from Toronto, as well as having taken post-graduate work at the latter University. The good wishes of thousands of students and scores of teachers who knew him and worked with him will accompany Mr. Maxwell when he retires in June. May he have many happy years in which to enjoy a well-earned rest with his friends, his hobbies, and his memories. Walter K. Mulock Page Nine Mm. Qialtam (letilel This year Kelvin has suffered a great loss in the retirement of Mrs. L. M. Gra¬ ham, who has been connected with our home economics department for the past twelve years. Before coming to Kelvin, Mrs. Graham taught for a number of years in other city schools. Popular with both staff and students, Mrs. Graham was an active member of many committees, taking a special interest in opera costumes. She is now in England for a two years’ stay with her daughter’s family. From all accounts she is enjoying her visit in the Old Country. We wish Mrs. Graham every happiness in her retired life. Mary Brown Ann McLean Stajjjj Gltancj,e4, We wish to extend a very warm welcome to Miss O’Donnell, who succeeds Mrs. Gra¬ ham in the home economics department. She recently came from Earl Grey School. We are sorry to have Mr. Lyons leave us. He did splendid work in teaching his¬ tory and other subjects, and also gave a great deal of time to vocational guidance. He is now teaching at Daniel McIntyre School. Returning to take over his post in voca¬ tional guidance once more is Mr. Thomp¬ son. He is also teaching several other sub¬ jects. We missed him during his year’s leave-of-absence while he was doing post¬ graduate work, and hope sincerely that he will stay with us for many more years. We have no doubt that Mr. G. Duncan, away for a year’s leave-of-absence, is thor¬ oughly enjoying life under sunny Cali¬ fornian skies. We hope to see him back next year, complete with tan. Our congratulations to Miss Shack, who, we are pleased to report, has been pro¬ moted to the position of principal of Sar- geant Park School. We wish her success in every way. In place of Miss Shack and Mr. Duncan we have Mr. Rene Hoole from Daniel McIn¬ tyre, a great asset to our dramatic and musical activities, and Mr. LeNeveu of King Edward School. It is our hope that they are finding their work at Kelvin enjoyable. Mr. Chisik has been appointed to the staff this year in replacement of Mr. Mu- lock. Mr. Chisik was engaged in doing special electrical work in the Kelvin shops for a number of years. We feel that the departure of Miss Nel¬ son, secretary to Kelvin for six years, is a great loss to us. Having prepared for a teaching career by obtaining her Univer¬ sity degree and ' by attending normal school and business college, Miss Nelson began her teaching career at The Pas. Later she came to Winnipeg. After holding various positions as both teacher and stenographer, she came to Kelvin. At present she is teaching at Virden Collegiate. We wish her happiness and success. To Miss Baldwin, who recently replaced Miss Nelson, we extend a hearty welcome. She came to us from Lord Roberts, where she held the same position of secretary. We have with us also, this year, Miss V. Anderson, assistant secretary. We feel sure she will like her position here and hope to see her for a good long while.

GENIUS AT WORK TYPISTS ' HAVEN VALEDICTORY ADDRESS Delivered by Paul Henteleff at the Graduation Exercises on June 11, 1948 Dr. Willoughby, Col. Churchill, and Friends: J AM proud to have been chosen the vale¬ dictorian of this graduating class, but my pride is equalled by the pleasure I take in recalling the many facets of life at Kelvin. To appreciate our love for this school just listen to us singing our school song. In our voices you will hear heartfelt sincerity, for today we must say good-bye to that which has formed the core, the pur¬ pose, and the rhythm of our lives during the past two years. In the future we shall remember our high school careers lovingly, because we went to Kelvin, within whose red brick walls we spent our working hours at hand-carved desks, and without whose walls we played on spacious, muddy fields. One may ask what there is about our school that arouses such affection. Let us see. On entering her cherished portals, you are immediately impressed by the halls. Between periods you say see therein, lines of exemplary neatness. You may also ob¬ serve the forbidden gatherings about the water fountains, the cascading rushes to the gymnasium, the tasteful decorations, and the heaving floors. This, however, is only the physical Kelvin; this is not the Kelvin that educates us, the Kelvin that offers us many, many extra-curricular ac¬ tivities, nor is it the Kelvin that provides us with lasting friendship. Here at Kelvin we were offered a great variety of courses; we were prepared for higher education, for business, or for industry. Here we had the advantage of a large library, of well- equipped shops and laboratories, and of spacious detention rooms. During class¬ room activities we were occasionally en¬ tertained with transcribed music which leaked into our ivory tower from the out¬ side world through Kelvin’s modern ven¬ tilating system. In the field of sports we were offered an almost endless selection of activities. Who will forget our rugby team, our volleyball, basketball, and track teams, their successes and failures, their pictures in overwhelming array along the almost endless corridors? Who will forget the school opera, the timid try-outs, the practices beginning before the rise of sun and ending after it set? Who will forget the ticket sales, the rehearsals, the per¬ formances? We shall remember the school socials, not too numerous, but always suc¬ cessful. Few of us will forget any of these things, for this was school-life, one of our most treasured experiences. However, all our activities were not con¬ fined within the bounds of Kelvin School. One of the most significant of the activ¬ ities of Kelvin students was participation in Winnipeg’s newly formed, all-high- school newspaper, Interhighlites. Perhaps some of the happiest days at Kelvin were those on which we rested from the ardu¬ ous and engrossing activities of the past week, by slipping down in our desks be¬ hind our papers, which kept us up to date on sports, music, and, for the boys at least, the “shy guy’s” latest methods of winning girls of various types. A still more signi¬ ficant phase of school-life was the whole¬ hearted support of the Canadian Aid to Children’s Fund. Through this campaign we shared the responsibility of the com¬ munity and took our places beside millions of other Canadians as citizens of the world. In all our activities, athletic, artistic, and academic, our teachers and principal played a far more important part than we were often wont to admit during the year. Now, however, we sincerely thank them for being our coaches in all activ¬ ities, our Sesame to knowledge in the classroom, and our friends on the playing fields and outside the school. As we leave Kelvin, with all our cher¬ ished memories, I recall three words of the poet Catullus, three words which seem to summarize all our feelings on this day: “Ave et vale!” “Hail and jarewell!” Page Fourteen GawyuziulcUio-HA, 7a jHea inXf, StudesiU, 4?a 1947-48 JgVERY year awards are given to a number of outstanding students in Grade XI. The most sought-after award is the Governor General’s Medal, which will be given to Bill Brisbin at graduation in June of this year. He receives this award because of the prominent part he took in school activities last year. A newcomer to Kelvin from Montreal, he was president of Room 34, and an important member of both the rugby and senior basketball teams. However, his academic work suffered in no way, for he achieved an average of 82.2%. This year Bill is taking Grade XII at Kelvin, where he is living up to the high standard he has set for himself. He plans to attend univer¬ sity next year. Two students, a boy and a girl, are chosen each year, because of their academic standing, for Dux Scholarships. They were won in 1947-48 by Carol McMillan of Room 37, whose average was 88.9%, and Paul Henteleff of Room 27, with an average of 88.6%. At the graduation exercises in 1948, Carol gave the salutatory and Paul the valedic¬ tory address. This year, Carol is taking a science, and Paul a pre-medical course at university. To the boy and girl who are considered likely to make good citizens of our country, are given the Dux Citizenship awards. Pat Hamilton of Room 37 and Neil Wood of Room 34 were chosen for this honor. Pat was editor of the Kelvin Year Book last year and was also prominent in our musical activities. She had an average of 89%. Neil was secretary of his class and obtained an average of 84.4%. Pat is taking Grade XII at Kelvin and next year expects to attend university. Neil is now taking science at university. Paul Henteleff, Marion Rose, and Dorothy Pen- ner brought Isbister Scholarships to the school last year. To these students go our wishes for success in their chosen careers.

THE JUNIOR CLASSES 1948-49 (lao-m «2 The scene is Kelvin, the class, Room 12, as, in the early morning, a straggling line waves farewell to Miss Anderson and tramps out to meet the foe. With courage and determination, these individuals tackle geometry, leap the hurdles, and beat the typewriters. Unwavering, they capture the French, travel the roads of geography, and imprison within their minds the words of poets and other authors. They pass the ball with unfailing energy, many of them making the junior volleyball championship team, and the room team which won Grade X honors. Their lusty voices have soared to the rafters in various musical events. T ' hus, at the end of the day, Room 12 returns victorious.

This is the room for which the girls and teachers have been waiting. We have ' brains? looks? personality? We also think that we have the material for a great rugby team. Thus far we have had good luck in our various athletic activities, and we are hoping for even greater success in the future. Racun 16 Room 16 has spent an enjoyable and profit¬ able year under the guidance of our class teacher, Mr. Young. Besides our regular studies and shop work, we took part in the following activities: soccer in the fall, basketball through¬ out the winter, and the track and field events in the spring.

As the rosy glow dims and fades, we recall all the activities in which we took part. Among these were inter-room and inter-school volleyball and basketball. Merle Rabinovich, our popular president, and Pat Murdoch, who held the positions of vice-presi¬ dent and school council representative, were both on our room volleyball team. Mary Caliguere, our sports captain, tried her best to keep the girls in line. A few of us managed to get into the operetta. Among these was Donna Clifford, our social representative. Room 17 wishes to thank Miss Carey for all she has done for us throughout the year. R.oa+n IS Draw near and listen to the final chapter in the archives of Room 18 for 1948-49. At the year’s close, we review with happy memories and many misgivings the year’s events. In the social spotlight, Bernice organized two parties: the first a wiener roast and the second a house party. Both provided mirthful moments and lots of fun. Connie, the long-suffering presi¬ dent, and Doreen, the sports captain, toiled unceasingly to keep order in the classroom and corridors, but to little avail, we might add. Myrna, our council representative, and Irene, our secretary, spent the year battling over the room accounts. Miss Sprung, a fellow conspira¬ tor in all our plots and plans, forgives all, we hope.

Our many activities of the year have included lively par¬ ties, volleyball and basketball competitions, as well as academic pursuits, in all of which we did very well. We wish also to express our appreciation to Miss McGregor for making our first year at Kelvin a successful one.

Tom Crawford 1 , our sports captain, tries in P.T. periods to keep us in order; whereas Reg Thompson, our council representative, is always trying to arouse our school spirit. Jim Wilson, Lionel Ernes, and Bruce Woods looked after our social, literary, and musical life. Together they make a delightful trio.

(laam 2.4- As we look back over our Grade X year at Kelvin we see a long line of ghostly figures passing in review. If we look closely we can see that it is a group of girls bicycling down a windy highway. It is Room 24 on its way to a room party—a wiener roast. Then the scene changes. The shadowy figures become clearer, and we see them dancing and singing. What?— It is the opera, of course, with a goodly sprink¬ ling of Room 24 girls taking part. The picture fades and another group takes its place. These girls are playing basketball. As the whistle blows, they beam with pride, because the girls of Room 24 are now the Grade X basketball champions. Another shift of scene, and we see our class officers—each of them doing a splendid job. We see Miss Hamilton helping us with our difficulties. But as we watch, the figures grow dimme r, and we are left with nothing but pleasant memories. R.ao n 30 We started out the year by having our room elections under the direction of Mr. Borland. Roddy MacCharles was elected president by a large majority While Doug Ross was voted into the office of school councillor. In the field of sports, we entered everything possible with our muscular sports captain, Jim McCormack, at the head of our enthusiastic group of athletes. We had several basketball practices which we found were needed in order to overwhelm all the other teams. John Bradley, our indispensable ticket representative, served us faithfully dur¬ ing both the opera and rugby season. Altogether Room 30 had a busy and prosperous year.

Ro-a n 33 The intelligent pupils of Room 32 shuffle drowsily into the room and remove their coats. The girls, showing some signs of life, rush to the mirror to comb their golden locks and to restore their “beauty.” The boys discuss sports in a secluded corner. Mr. Kelly rings the bell. SILENCE? Roll call. When the period bell rings, the class forms into two lines. After a brain-teasing forty minutes, the first period ends. The day drags on much the same. By study period, five hours later, we have acquired our detention slips and two hours’ homework. Restlessly we wait for four o’oclock. The bell buzzes, books close, and in five minutes the dust settles again. Thus the day ends. foam 35 The co-educated of Room 35 can surely boast of a smooth-sailing and successful year. Ac¬ complishments have been many and varied, achieved by our sincere striving for superla¬ tive standards. The academic achievements, athletic activities, and social swirls throughout the season have all toed the mark with grand results. The boys’ room rugby and hockey teams be¬ wildered opposition and teachers by the start¬ ling color-scheme of their sweaters. The girls, showing more taste, bought class rings, pins, and bracelets which they now wear everywhere. The girls also sang in an outstanding fashion in the festival. Probably the best feature of Room 35 is the atmosphere of real companionship. Many thanks go to Mr. LeNevue, our under¬ standing teacher. We agree that the year was well spent.

Page Fifty-two NJOW that the academic year is drawing to a close, it may be said that the 1948-49 school council has enjoyed a rea¬ sonable measure of success in its various enterprises. Indeed, we can assume that the council has earned a permanent place in the life of our school. Just how prominent that place will be is dependent, naturally, on the calibre of Kelvin’s future councillors. However, if they are as enthusiastic and co-operative as this year’s members, the future is as¬ sured. Most of the students are familiar with the council’s activities and responsibilities, such as sponsoring all school dances and contributing to the production of the year book. Little can be said about these, other than to record the fact that the council did a very fine job. But, with great pride and satisfaction, we report the year book was greatly aided financially by our Year Book Dance. And pride’s warm glow increases when we point to the immeasurable success of Car¬ eers Day. Under the sponsorship of the guidance councillors and the school coun¬ cil, the whole student body co-operated to make this event a notable one. Many favorable comments were made by the visiting speakers regarding the students’ sincere interest and fine conduct, and they are to be congratulated. Towards the end of the year the publica¬ tion of a school paper was planned. An¬ other new project, a theatre party in aid of the Junior Red Cross, will end the year’s social activities. Now, the concluding lines have been re¬ served for a special note of thanks to all the staff members whose work and advice were invaluable to the year’s council. Their efforts are deeply appreciated.

As its part in the ceremony, the mixed choir sang the traditional an¬ thems commemorating this day. The Christmas Carol Service took place on December 12, at Crescent Fort Rouge Church. On entering the beautifully lit church, one heard the voice of Joan Chal¬ mers singing Christmas Eve Is Here, and then the full choir, in procession, singing Masters In This Hall. The program con¬ sisted of selected Biblical passages, tracing the Christmas Story, recited by choral readers who were directed by Miss Sprung. Thus the various carols by the choir and soloists were linked with the story of the birth of Christ. A trio, Elaine Hamilton, Joan Cameron, and Richard Elsey, sang The Angel Gabriel. The shepherd’s songs and the carols of the Three Wise Men were rendered by Elizabeth Thompson, Derek Best, Charles Grierson, Ralph Hugo, John Lee, Rodger Munson, Bob Newman, Gor¬ don Young, and Bill Wilson. The service was closed with the congregation and choir singing Adeste Fidelis. The Gilbert and Sullivan operetta, H.M.S. Pinafore was presented at the Playhouse Theatre by students of Kelvin on February 8, 9, 10, and 11. The operetta was a success, thanks to the fine per¬ formances of the choruses and the splen¬ did work of the cast. Iveagh Foreman and her jolly tars danced a merry Sailors’ Hornpipe between the acts. This year proved to be a good one for Kelvin’s music. The girls’ choir won in their class in the Manitoba Musical Festi¬ val, singing Elgar’s, My Love Dwelt In a Northern Land, and Spring, by Gustav Holst, for which they received very high marks. Unfortunately, the choir was un¬ able to compete for the Earl Grey Trophy because of the Easter school examinations. Joan Sinclair THE J. S.

This trophy was presented to the 31st Manitoba Musical Festival by the Kelvin Grads’ Mixed Glee Club, in recognition of the services and teachings of Mr. J. S. Little, principal of Kelvin High School, 1932-1946. It was felt that in some small way the Grads wished to pay tribute to a true lover of music, who took such an unending and personal interest in for¬ warding musical appreciation among his pupils. It was through his inspiration and guid¬ ance that Kelvin students were led to a deeper understanding of fine music, which is the basis of every-day living. A book containing the signatures of the teachers and students who contributed to the trophy has been sent to Mr. Little. Page Fifty-five Qa ieen, IdJal Qsieat Succeed,. . . QN Thursday, March 10, the first “Careers Day” in Manitoba was held in Kelvin. Through the co-operation of the school council and the staff guidance com¬ mittee, some fifty of Winnipeg’s most prominent citizens were brought to the school to enlighten the students on the courses at the University of Manitoba and on the opportunities in several other voca¬ tions and professions. Members of the ethics committee, under Hans Pfister, were particularly responsible for making the plans, arrangements for speakers, and the working out of individ¬ ual time-tables. Some of the representatives of the Uni¬ versity were: Dean Waines, Dean Mac- Ewan, Dean Tallin, Dean Mathers, and Dean Fetherstonhaugh. Many other mem¬ bers of the staff also spoke on various courses. A few of the industries were represented by Mr. A. Murphy, Mr. Moray Sinclair, Mr. W. Cave, Mr. J. M. Caldwell, and several others. Each student heard four lectures from the following: dentistry, requirements in business, banking, technical and vocational school, arts-general, medical assistants, arts-psychology, personnel, agriculture, science-general, interior decorating, educa¬ tion and teaching, commercial art, stenog¬ raphy and secretarial work, railway ap¬ prenticeship, radio broadcasting, com¬ merce, chemistry, biology, architecture, advertising, civil service employment, in¬ dustries, engineering, marriage, medicine, geology, law, home economics, retail sell¬ ing, pharmacy, national employment, music, nursing, social work, physiotherapy, and insurance. Thus, on Thursday afternoon, each stu¬ dent was given an individual time-table, designating at which lecture he was to be present each period. At the end of the afternoon, the guest speakers were received by Dr. Willoughby and Mr. W. K. Maxwell. The students were represented by President Jerry Jew- ers, and Vice-President Shirley Harkness. In this way, the afternoon ended as one of the council’s major sucesses. Everything was efficiently planned. The guests were well received and felt sure their time had not been wasted, and the students them¬ selves showed a great deal of enthusiasm toward the program! It is to their credit that such a favorable impression of Kelvin was made upon the guest speakers. “Careers Day” could not have been such an outstanding success without the un¬ shirking efforts of Mr. R. T. F. Thompson and his committees. It is hoped that “Careers Day” will be¬ come an annual event in Kelvin. Israel Asper KELVIN GIRLS’ CHOIR Qun School So-enti f lt e ie angled . . .

The extra events included varied entertainment, such as debates, films, and special parties. jbebate An interesting debate, “Resolved, That Laval did more for the good of New France than did Frontenac,” took place in Novem¬ ber. Helen Scurfield and Claire Woodcock of Room 37 took the negative of the debate while Gerald Jewers and Cameron McMil¬ lan of Room 27 upheld the affirmative. A close decision in favor of the not-so-weaker sex was handed down by the judge, Miss Ferrier. film about Russian opera and ballet, an excellent visual explanation of Operation Mulberry, and a Frank Sinatra feature, entitled The House I Live In. There was also a film on the Olympic winter games, featuring Canada’s own Barbara Ann Scott. On February 24, the Grade XI and XII classes were shown a film giving the high¬ lights of the 1948 East-West rugby game between Calgary Stampeders and Ottawa Roughridgers. Following the showing of this film, the candidates for King and Queen of “Press Night Prance,” the Year Book dance, were presented. The film and presentation of candidates were repeated the following afternoon for the Grade X classes. MidceUaneoud fCelvut ' d £uj%esi Saledtrien On January 11, a rally was held to boost ticket sales for Kelvin’s presentation of H.M.S. Pinafore. Mr. Hoole directed selec¬ tions from the opera. Following this, Mr. Gilbert gave an inspiring pep talk, ex¬ plaining the inter-room ticket sales com¬ petition. January 28 and February 4 were the dates on which the two parties for Kelvin’s super-salesmen were held. The first party was attended by Rooms 22, 24, and 25; the second, by Rooms 41, 37, 39, and 27. The programs featured everything from Mr. Palmer’s excellent rendition on his saxo¬ phone to an equally excellent, although somewhat different, performance by Kel¬ vin’s own “Victor Borge.” Proceedings were conducted on both occasions by Bill Wilson. Last fall a number of classes viewed a bicycle safety film. Following the show¬ ing of the film to each class, a discussion was held concerning the problems of Kel¬ vin’s cyclists. On the afternoon of February 17, a num¬ ber of movies were shown in the auditori¬ um. They included two films on France, a One of the first major events of the year was a typing demonstration, given on Sep¬ tember 27 for the benefit of all the typing classes. The demonstration was given by Miss Sophie Michas of the Underwood Company. It was a very interesting pres¬ entation, and Miss Michas’ skill was an inspiration to all who saw her perform. Mr. Lyons, the former headmaster of the famed Rugby School of England, was one of Kelvin’s first guests of the year. He interested the boys very much with his account of school life in his native land. The girls, on the other hand, enjoyed a fashion show. This was presented on October 7 by Miss Carol Good of the Edu¬ cational Division of the Dominion Patterns Limited in co-operation with the home economics department of Kelvin. The girls enjoyed the programme and appreciated the many wardrobe suggestions given. On the third anniversary of the signing of the United Nations Charter, a simulated radio programme, specially prepared for the occasion, was presented. The pro¬ gramme was given by four girls from Room 24 for the Grade X classes, and fol¬ lowing this, it was again presented by four boys from Room 27 for the benefit of the Grade XI and XII classes.

Op-eA-a Panty To celebrate the successful performance of H.M.S. Pinafore, an opera party was held on February 18. All the cast and stage hands en¬ joyed a pleasant evening, highlighted by spark¬ ling entertainment. Sandwiches, cake, and cokes were served. Mr. Ward is to be thanked for instructing us in square dancing which was introduced at this function. Thanks are also due to Joan Oameron and Bill Wilson for or¬ ganizing this splendid party. Co-ed The girls got the Kelvin social season off to a good start on November 12 with their annual dance, this year named the “Spinsters’ Splurge.” The boys, looking handsome in unique corsages of carrots, flowers, buttons, bows and candies, danced with their dates to the lyrical music of Charlie Cruiksbank’s orchestra. Mr. Kerr look¬ ed unusually charming in his ingenious corsage. Our thanks are due to Ginny Auckland for ex¬ cellent organizing and officiating as mistress of ceremonies. ' Ilie ' Ifean. Poole a tce The “Press Night Prance” was a most success¬ ful dance and also gave needed assistance to the year book. The highlight of the evening was the election of a king, Ron Morlock, and a queen, Iveagh Foreman. Entertainment was both varied and amusing. We are proud of our council for arranging such an enjoyable affair as “Press Night Prance.” Q iade Ptf Chance The Grade XI dance, “Harvest Schmoon” had as its theme A1 Capp’s novel creations, schmoos. This motif was carried out in the decorations of schmoo balloons and in the big prizes of the evening, lovable, wooden schmoos, manufac¬ tured in Mr. Ward’s wood-turning shop. Music was provided by Eaton’s Band Box. Q icuie X Social The two Grade X dances took place on November 19, and February 25, in the gym¬ nasium, where Kelvin feet kept time to recorded music. Skits were uprorious and at the last dance, the students tackled the intricacies of square dancing. Our thanks go to all who made it a success. Q iaduatio i 5ba+tce On the night of June 15, the halls of Kelvin once more looked down upon the crowd as¬ sembled for the annual Graduation Dance. The girls of the graduating class looked even more charming than usual in their attractive gowns of all hues, and the boys were exceptionally handsome in their smart suits. The grads danced to the lyrical music of Charlie Cruik- shanks’ popular orchestra. Food was served in the auditorium where entertainment was also provided. This festive affair was a most successful termination to our high school life. Claire Woodcock Clara Storwick Page Fifty-nine A Qante. jpsi £ue ui Qjsil . GIRLS’ SPORTS COUNCIL Left to right: Diane Gillespie, Joan Kerr, Isabelle Galas, Geraldine Watkins Doreen Runcie, Miss Duncan. M’OT so very long ago one of our senior girls ’ said to me, “I wish we could play like other schools—just for the fun of playing.” Now that is a very thought-provoking statement, as I am sure you will all agree. Do we in Kelvin, then, not play just for the fun of playing—do we play only to win—and is winning not a worthy objective of our sports activities? I think it is, provided that we can do both—play for fun, and also play to win. After all, if we play only for the fun of playing without any thought of winning, why bother practising? Much of the value of sports lies not in the actual competi¬ tion, but in the realization that one can’t expect kindly disposed fates to hand one the victory, and that it is only by dint of hard work through weeks of practice and training, that one can We All Play ' Vulleyball “Spike it! C’mon, you kids, just two more points!” These were the words which echoed through Kelvin during the inter-room volley¬ ball season. The girls of Kelvin who took part in these games, and there were many, gained something from them even if their team did not win. Volleyball promotes good sportsman¬ ship and teamwork, without which a sport can¬ not exist. There was many a game with such a close score that the victorious team was not known . . . and iallzethall This year’s inter-ro om basketball season was supported by many enthusiastic players from every room. The score in all games was close. Indeed, in the junior division, contests ended in a tie on several occasions. In the final battle for the Grade X championship, Room 24 won out over Room 35 by a score of 9-0 to emerge as the junior champions. In the Grade XI-XII division, Room 41 nosed hope to be victorious. Let us remember also that only one school, or only one room, can win, and that there are of necessity several losing teams—so— “Here’s to the men who lose! The touchstone of true worth is not success; There is a higher test — Though fate may darkly frown, onward to press, And bravely do one’s best. Here’s to the men who lose! It is the vanquished’s praises that I sing, And this is the toast I choose: ‘A hard-fought failure is a noble thing; Here’s to the men who lose!’” R. Duncan until the final whistle blew. Then the victors would give a mighty cheer and the defeated players would try to console each other with the hope that they might win their next game. Room 12 won their way to the junior champion¬ ship, while Room 39 came out on top for the senior girls. In a slightly one-sided game, Room 39 captured the school championship from Room 12. Congratulations, Room 39! Judy McPherson out Room 38 by a score of 6-5 to cop the senior laurels. In an exciting game between the two winners Room 41 was defeated, giving the school cham¬ pionship to Room 24. I am sure all the girls would like to thank Miss Duncan for her successful efforts in arranging this year’s excellent inter - room basketball schedule.

However, those who were chosen showed that they merited their positions. It was a heart-breaking year for the juniors, because they lost the championship by a single point. Except for this one point, they won all their games by lavish margins. The seniors did not experience any too pros¬ perous a season either. They lost many of their games by extremely small margins; however, they never admitted defeat until the final whistle had sounded. We would like to thank Mr. Kerr for his interest and fine coaching.

HEALTHY mind in a healthy body” has been talked about for 2,000 years. Recog¬ nition of the two-fold development of the indi¬ vidual is -of even longer standing. Kelvin boys -have seen -the value in healthy physical development and have shown their enthusiasm for both intra- and extra-curricular sports ac¬ tivities. Hundreds of man-hours were put in on the gridiron last fall, while other boys worked on -the soccer field. Later, basketball brought out dozens for four months’ condition¬ ing. The skaters, swimmers, skiers, snowshoers, curlers, and bowlers all gave of themselves and drew dividends in health and pleasure. This year, for the first time, the boys had the oppor¬ tunity of wrestling their way to a fine physique. Then, finally, five hundred boys broke out into the spring sunshine to burn up the tracks and pound down the runways in preparation for our field days. This year’s work would fore¬ cast a continuation into adulthood of healthful recreational activity. In the inter-high sports, Kelvin has had some disappointing losses, but at the same time has come through with a reasonable share of wins. It was wonderful to see some of our boys, al¬ though outclassed, fighting on, until, through sheer grit and determination, they brought glory to themselves and honor to Kelvin. We wish those who are leaving the best of luck. May they keep up the spirit which carried them along so well while here. W. S. Dunlop All (laa+nl Play Saccesi .

The players exerted their best efforts to win four league games, only to be eliminated by Gordon Bell in the semi-finals. In its initial game, Kelvin ran wild over Daniel McIntyre, winning by a score of 17-2. Then, sucessively, the Katies defeated Isaac Newton 15-4, Gordon Bell 14-1, and St. John’s 20-17. There were three decisive factors that con¬ tributed to these four victories. First, the Clip¬ pers had two of the finest coaches in the league; second, they had a driving will to win; third, they had great teamwork, a quality which is absolutely necessary if a team is to be victorious. The two coaches, as you know, were Huck Welch and Jack France. These two men gave much of their time and knowledge to building a team which had drive and determination. Every day after school there was a practice in which every player gained some knowledge of rugby. It was hard work both for players and coaches alike, but eventually this hard work paid dividends, for Kelvin, the underdog, in its first league game defeated Daniel McIntyre and continued to win in the three remaining league games. Little can be said that has not been said about the semi-final game against Gordon Bell. However, the fact that there were no excuses for our defeat, exemplifies Kelvin’s good sports¬ manship. The players of the team wish to take this opportunity to express their sincere thanks to Huck Welch, Jack France, and all the teachers connected with the team for their efforts and interest shown throughout the season. We also thank the student body of Kelvin for their wholehearted support at all games during what we consider was a successful season.

Half the season had elapsed before this fact was rea¬ lized. The team then put on a sustained drive in which they defeated Daniel McIntyre by a score of 4-0. This victory moved them into second place. This brought about the game against a top- notch St. John’s aggregation with the city championship at stake. St. John’s booted in a pair of counters to take a 2-0 lead which they managed to maintain despite a powerful offen¬ sive launched by the Kelvin eleven in the later stages of the game. On behalf of the whole team, I should like to thank Mr. Borland for his time and excellent coaching. Tom Bailey success with its junior soccer team. One thing, however, was strongly in evidence. The players had the never-say-die spirit. In the first three games the Kelvin crew were scoreless at half time, while the opposing team had as many as three goals to their credit, but at the end of the encounters the grim determination of the team resulted in three tied games. True, we were not winning, but on the other hand, we were not losing. All hopes of a championship faded in the fourth game in which the opposing team administered a 2-0 drubbing. We would like to express our thanks to Mr. LeNeveu for his invaluable work in coaching our team. Milton Cooper SENIOR SOCCER BACK ROW: Neil Buchanan. L.

Under the able coaching of Mr. Dunlop, the team lost only three games of an eight-game series. In the first half, Kelvin won three games and lost one. In the second half of the series, we won two and lost two. In the final game, it was do-or-die for the Kelvin squad. St. John’s, however, was too strong for Kelvin and edged us out of the play¬ offs by a score of 34-29. T ' he team wishes to thank Mr. Dunlop for his coaching and management. Jack Marshall GunMuuf. Sweep! Sweep! Sweep! Those were the words which echoed from the Port Rouge Curl¬ ing Club when Kelvin’s curlers invaded the premises. The hopeful enthusiasts of today, bonspiel winners of tomorrow, lined up into fifteen rinks this year. With many of last year’s skips returning to the fray, Kelvin again led the way in city high school curling interest. Eleven rinks were entered in the high school bonspiel. However, the ancient but popular sport would never have been so efficiently managed without the untiring efforts of Mr. Borland and his assistants. Israel Asper In the annual inter-high ski and snowshoe meet this year, Kelvin captured third place. In the keen competition, Katie skiers were second to none in sportsmanship and fighting spirit. Gordon Richardson emerged as individual star of the meet, winning both the open slalom and one mile point-to-point races. The boy’s slalom team took second place in the team event. Dr. McCullough also deserves recognition for his fine organization and supervision of the skiing. Gordon Younger fluniai fia6.fz.etfall The 1948-49 junior basketball team began the season with great spirit. The first game, a closely contested battle, ended with Kelvin on the short end of a 21-18 score. This seemed to be the story throughout the season, for Kelvin lost five games by close, but convincing scores. Then the Katies seemed to gain new life, winning two games and losing one to Daniel McIntyre. Kelvin also played three exhibition games against St. Boniface and Ravenscourt. Many thanks are to be given to Mr. Thompson and Bill Brisbin for their interest and fine coaching. Rod Hardy Swimming Again this year, Kelvin’s inter-high swim¬ ming team came through with a victory. Even the underrated Grade XII team splashed to a second-place triumph. Although credit is due to every participant whose combined efforts brought the swimming crown to Kelvin once more, recognizition should be given to a few in particular: to Mike Mon¬ tague, for organizing the team and coaching at the practices, and for his fine swimming at the gala; to Dean Hillsman, a tower of strength to the team; and to Glen Scott, Ross Parke, and Garnet Bell for their good work. Our thanks also go to Mr. Saunders for his help and guidance. Don Frame en-P in fio-udi+Kj. During February of this year, twenty boys, representing Kelvin, participated in the inter- high ten-pin bowling tournament which was held in the Bowl-Arena Alleys. Though none of Kelvin’s teams were victorious, the Grade XII team came the closest to placing. Credit goes to the other teams who did well in view of the fact that their members had not bowled more than one or two games of ten-pins before. With practice, we look forward to a more suc¬ cessful season next year.

The various division winners played to deter¬ mine the ultimate champions, Room 40 in the Grade X section and Room 33 in the Grade XI-XII section. After a hard struggle, the power-packed Room 33 team succeeded in defeating the underrated Room 40 by a score of 29-24. The organizing work of Mr. Newfield and the supervision of other teachers was appreciated by all who took part. Conrad Crust Ontesi-Ho-o-m JlocJze This year the inter-room hockey was suc¬ cessfully conducted on a knock-out basis with the games played every Monday and Thursday at the Sir John Franklin rink. In the Grade X loop, the Room 35 sextet was victorious over its aggressive competitors. A goal-hungry Room 30 copped the Grades XI- XII title without much trouble and then went on to down the fighting Room 35 team and cop the school championship. All participants are grateful to Mr. Biglow and Mr. Popiel whose patient management and hard work made the hockey possible. Ed Medville Kelvin fyielA . . .

Rigg THE CYCLE By Barry Iliffe, Room 36, Grade X “■pAPER, final paper.” The strident voice of a grimy newsboy sang out above the roar¬ ing and honking of the city traffic. The head¬ line that the young fellow was so diligently shouting obviously aroused the curiosity of the pedestrians, for he was surrounded by a crowd of eager customers. Near the front of the group stood a tall, young man who had managed to reach the newsboy’s stand to make his pur¬ chase. He pushed his way back through the crowd glancing at the featured headline which he found so interesting. This was startling news for it affected one of the most esteemed and popular figures of the time. Noticing a con¬ veniently located fire-hydrant against which he might relax while he gave his full attention to his reading, he settled himself as comfortably as possible and proceeded to read the story beneath the headline: “Bridgewater county in Kentucky wit¬ nessed one of its most tragic fires today, when the million dollar horse-racing estab¬ lishment of James S. Creighton burned to the ground, resulting in the death of all but one of his family, the only survivor be¬ ing Sidney, his fifteen-year-old son.” The man looked up from his journal and thought for a moment, perhaps wondering what the future of this homeless lad would be. Then, rolling up the paper, he continued down the hot sidewalk until he disappeared in a crowd of jostling people. Sidney Creighton, the only remaining son of the late J. S. Creighton, was standing in front of a large door which bore the inscription “ H. J. Dawson, Lawyer. Walk In.” He was a small, pleasant-looking boy dressed in a neat sport First: “The Cycle,” by Barry Iliffe, Room 36, Grade X. Second: “Tho’ We may Roam,” by Joan Cohen, Room 24, Grade X.

He was undecided or perhaps slightly timid at entering the office. Until now, Sidney had led a protected life. All that he knew had been taught to him by a private tutor, the lessons being given in his own lavish home. His father, who wanted his son to be happy, had bought him almost anything he desired. But today his future had been marred by the crumbling of timbers, the flash of fire, the pungent smell cf smoke, of melting heat and screaming horses. His home, the estate for which his father had sweated and toiled for many years was gone, and a great deal wor se, he had lost his family. Nevertheless, Sidney, despite his sheltered life, had the courage to take this great loss in his stride and now, with a firm step and a deter¬ mined smile, he opened the heavy door and strode briskly into the lawyer’s spacious office. Mr. Dawson recognized the boy at once and with a cheery “Good afternoon, Sid.” bade the lad sit down. This good-natured man had been the family lawyer for years, and as the executor of the late J. S. Creighton’s will, he had asked Sidney to ccme to hear it read. Mr. Dawson pushed his chair back, stretched out his legs and began to read while Sidney sat up very straight and listened attentively. Page Seventy-four Sidney left the lawyer’s office satisfied but puzzled. His father had been a queer man, no insurance, no savings; all the family had owned was lost in the fire except the eight-section piece of good Kentucky pasture-land on which they had built. Sidney realized he could have sold this land for a great deal of money, but his father bad wished that the land he had worked so hard to get might never be sold as long as there was a Creighton to own it. Financial problems, however, were not worrying Sid now, for he was on his way to start a new life. Col. Edward Barett, a friendly rival of the Creightons, was fully aware of the riding skill of the lad and had offered him a place in his gang of exercise-boys. Sidney, who had always lived in a family of horsemen, realized that he would be happy nowhere but on a ranch and therefore had accepted the offer. After a morning of travelling through typical Kentucky bluegrass-lands, Sid’s bus stopped in front of a large house, the sumptuous home of Col. Barett. The boy jumped off the bus, walked up the gravel driveway, past a big automobile and around to the stables. At the sight of the thoroughbred colts playing in the lush grass pasture, his heart was filled with joy. He had been brought up among colts like these, and big red barns and silver silos like the ones that were before him now. A light wind blew the odours of the ranch to his nostrils. The smell of new leather in the saddler’s shack, the sweet smell of burning willow, of fir-tree hedging, of fresh-cut hay, the warm smell of the sun shin¬ ing on the cedar shingles on the roof of the barn, of the many different horse liniments, of new rope hanging from the saddle, the smell of the cowboy and his horse, and of the blacksmith’s leather bellows all reminded him of his old home. Wonderful smells that seemed to render him motionless and senseless. But at last he remembered what he had set out to do, so pick¬ ing up his bag, he turned and walked to the building marked “Office.” Once again he had a home. Sid enjoyed being an exercise boy. His fellow workers resented the quiet boy at first, but they soon realized he could ride as well as the best of them and was just as amiable. As he became more experienced, he rode as an apprentice jockey in some less important races. Because of his ability, he made a great deal of extra money by occasionally riding a winner. The papers used flattering adjectives to describe Sid’s riding, and even said that the young “booter” would some day become one of the greatest jockeys of all time. But nature was against it. Sidney, who was growing rapidly, could not keep under the jockeys’ weight limit, despite his attempts to diet. The inevitable hap¬ pened, Sidney could no longer ride the Colonel’s thoroughbreds. Hard work was the watchword for Sid now. As a stable boy, he spent most of his time in the acrid air of the barns, currying horses and sweeping out their stalls. It wasn’t as easy as riding and a great deal less enjoyable, but he stuck to it. Ten years passed. Sid, a big man in his middle twenties, had worked up to the position of assistant foreman. Col. Barett thought highly of the tnterprising young man, for, being a per¬ fectionist, Sidney did everything he undertook skilfully and intelligently. Often he laboured until late in the night, finishing up odd bits of work. It was natural that he was made foreman two years later. Sid’s plans began to take definite form—he had inherited from his father some of the best pasture land in the country and he decided that some day he would build his own establishment on it and regain for his own stables the fame and reputation which had been his father’s. As foreman, he had a great many responsibili¬ ties and his hours were long. He denied himself the joy of recreation in order to save his money. As time passed, comments were heard around the barns such as “Good old Sid is going nutty,” but Sid persisted toward his goal. It was a happy day for Sidney when he was promoted to the well-paid position of ranch superintendent. However, he still scraped and saved like a pauper. The new work required perhaps more attention than ever, but was diversified and pleasant, so the now greying man was finding life more enjoyable. Never¬ theless he continued to work as hard as he always had. He even rode horseback from place to place to save himself the cost of operating an automobile. One day, the Colonel called the head staff to a meeting. He explained to them the trouble they were having in obtaining fresh, unalkaline water for the stock, a fact most of the men realized already. The Colonel asked his staff to try to think of a plan to overcome this draw¬ back. It was Sid who figured out the method of pumping water from Deacon’s pond, an alkaline water-hole, to a purifier on the ranch by power from four large windmills. This sys- stem saved the ranch thousands of dollars a year and Sid was soon promoted to the position of general manager. Thereafter, Sidney earned a great deal of money and was soon able to take steps toward making his life-long dream come true. For twenty years he had designed and redesigned his plans and now they were on the verge of being fulfilled. It is easy to imagine his joy while he watched the caterpillar trac¬ tors digging foundations for his stables on his land. He built five barns, large enough to stable two hundred horses. His equipment and buildings were of the most modern design. Every day he worked from dawn till dusk. Hard work coupled with determination pro¬ duced results and very soon his stables’ colours were rated highly by the racing world. After developing a number of extremely successful horses, the stables of Sidney S. Creighton were firmly established. ' He built more bams, im¬ ported more horses, hired more trainers and built his own race track. At last, with this extremely profitable busi¬ ness, Sid could finally slow down. He enlarged his home, bought some big cars, joined men’s clubs and began to take life more easily. Yes, Sid had reached his goal. True, he had worked hard, but at last his life’s ambition had been realized. He was the owner of one of the most successful racing establishments in the country. By this time, almost everyone had heard of Sidney Creighton. To the lowly shoeshine boy sitting by his box on the corner, Mr. Creighton was a legendary figure of fablous wealth. To the stooped old man propped against a fire- hvdrant reading a paper which he had just bought from a newsboy on the corner, his name was nothing more than a link with the distant Page Seventy-five past, for the newspaper which he was reading carried the blazoned story: “Bridgewater county in Kentucky wit¬ nessed one of its worst fires today, when the two million dollar racing establishment and stock of Sidney S. Creighton burned to the ground. Mr. Creighton and the entire household lost their lives in the blaze.” The tall man pushed ' back his hat, tucked the paper under his arm and ambled down the hot sidewalk until he disappeared in a crowd of jostling people. THO ' WE MAY ROAM Joan Cohen. Room 24, Grade X rpHE train’s whistle called out through the -L gray gloom. To most of the passengers, the whistle meant little, merely that another six miles of the dull journey had been covered since the train had made its last stop—but to a young man, slouched in his seat and gazing absent-mindedly at the dreary expanse of snow outside his window, this whistle meant that in less than ten minutes the engine would be pull¬ ing the train into his home town, the little village he had not seen for five years. “We’ll soon be there,” he muttered to the fat man curled up on the seat opposite. His only answer was the heavy breathing of a sleeper. “Soon be there,” he repeated to himself as a slight tremor of excitement ran up his spine. Then he was again overtaken by that feeling of gloom and depression, which had, in the past few months, made itself so well known to him, and he thought of the last time he had seen this country. He had been full of plans then, full of high hopes of becoming a great concert pianist and composer. His most cherished ambitions were about to be realized, for he would soon be hailed by the world as another Chopin or Mozart. However, something had gone wrong. In spite of the people he had drawn to his concerts, and in spite of his many compositions which had been published, he had, of late, been haunted by the feeling that he had not succeeded. Marvin remembered the first time he had been aware of this feeling. He had arrived at the city of Vernon two days before his scheduled concert. At the station he had been met by a small group of reporters, who gathered around him, calling out the usual questions and taking pictures. Escaping from them with some diffi¬ culty, Marvin had taken a taxi to his hotel. There, in his spacious rooms, he had sat down at the piano—his rooms always contained a grand piano now—and his fingers had begun automatically to spin through “The Flight of the Bumble Bee.” At its completion, he had continued to sit with his hands resting on the keyboard, his eyes fixed on the cars racing below, as his mind suddenly became heavy with the thought that he had failed. What had gone wrong? Where were the crowds which he had imagined would have to be turned away from his performances? How did all his compositions manage to find their way to the back of music shelves? Why did he not become the first-class musician he had always expected to be? Suddenly he rose, making his way, with his long stride, toward his manager’s suite. “Jock,” he called, opening the door of the fat man’s room, “we’re going to rent the biggest hall in the city tomorrow night, and we’re going to throw a party. Invite the whole town; run a big announcement in tomorrow’s paper.” “But . • . !” the other stuttered. “No buts, Jock,” he replied. “I can afford it.” The party was only a momentary success, for back at the hotel afterward, the feeling swept over him anew. He played to a larger audience than usual the following night. They called him back for many encores and applauded him vigorously after each selection. That night Marvin was content. His scheduled tour took him all over the country. He spent less and less time alone at his piano, and more and more time out in crowds, where he did not have a chance to feel dejected. One day, however, that feeling pounced on him with more force than ever. “This is no good,” he admonished himself, “you’re running away from yourself and your music is going to suffer by it.” Page Seventy-six “Jock,” he burst in upon the sleeping man. “Cancel the rest of the concerts. We’re going home.” “Home?” the man questioned, rubbing his eyes. “Yes, home,” Marvin replied. “But . . . ?” “No buts, Jock,” he warned- “Pack your clothes.” That night they boarded a north-bound train for the town of his birth. During the next two days the landscape faded from the greens and yellows of California into the browns and greys of the northern states. Now they were almost home, within a very few miles of the Manitoba town that Marvin had all his life referred to as home. The train was at last in the station. Marvin, glancing through his window, saw that Jock had, against his orders, written home of his coming, for half the town was at the station to greet him. From out of the crowd, Marvin was able to pick the faces of several of his friends. He noted, -as he was climbing off the train into the midst of the cheering crowd, that old Pop Calligan’s face was more wrinkled than ever, •that Janie Cooper’s freckles and long pigtails had disappeared, and that she was now an attractive girl with beautiful hair, combed in the latest style. Before he knew it, he was back at his little three-room bungalow, with his mother and dad uttering all the words of admiration which proud parents always do. “ . . . and we’ve arranged a party for you tonight at Kugars. All your old friends will be there,” the mother eagerly informed her son. “That’s wonderful, mom,” he said, wondering why it seemed as if he had never been away. The party was a merry affair. Although it had started out rather badly, with everyone acting shy and stiff toward him, a famous per¬ son whom they had not seen for five years, Marvin, with his talent for handling an audi¬ ence, soon changed his role from that of a stranger to that of an intimate friend. At about ten o’clock, Marvin slipped out of the big house. The party was in full swing, so he know he wouldn’t be missed for a little while. He wanted to be alone for a few minutes, to try to organize his thoughts- It was really good to be back, surprisingly enough. He hadn’t expected things to be like this. Funny how easy it was to slide into the old place. Why, he could work on his father ' s newspaper as he had done when he was a kid, if . . . However, he didn’t want to think of that now. He wanted only to bask in that feeling of con¬ tentment which had been growing on him all evening. The crisp, cold air of the ideal winter night closed in upon him as he reached the summit of the hill overlooking the town. At the foot of this hill, partly hidden by the bare branches of the trees, were the lights of the party, shin¬ ing up at him. Ahead of him lighted by the pale yellow moon and stretching straight out toward the horizon, was the road leading back to the country from which had just returned. And a melody began to form in his mind—a melody inspired by the whispering wind in the pines and by the twinkling stars. Marvin knew that his search was ended.

FROM INDIA TO ENGLAND David Garson, Room 34, Grade XI. M Y father was employed in the army, and when the time drew near for his retire¬ ment, after great thought, he decided to make Canada our future home. At that time we were in Secunderabad, in Hyderabad State, the large state in the centre of far-off India. My sisters and I were, naturally, greatly thrilled at the thought of the long sea trip ahead of us, of the new places we were going to see, and of actually going to Canada, the last place we ever dreamed of seeing- The next few weeks were a hectic time for us all, as there was much packing to be done. A month later, an order from headquarters to my Dad stated that we were to move to Deolali Camp, near Bombay, in two weeks. This camp was a waiting place before embarkation. Frantic packing was now going ahead—time was flying, and to me it looked as if only half the work was done. I believe my parents hardly slept in those two weeks. From early morning of one day to the small hours of the next they would be at it, until the final day of our de¬ parture. It was a sad day when we left. There was a host of our friends and relations to say good¬ bye. My father’s staff, with our household servants, faithful slaves that they were, gave us a royal send-off with many garlands of flowers —this being the Indian custom. After a month’s enjoyable stay in Deolali Camp, we moved to the Officers’ Hostel in Bom¬ bay to await further orders. This hostel was beautifully situated on the sea-front. During meal-times we had a grand view of the sea. We saw many ships leaving harbour, and I pictured myself as being on one presently. Our stay in this delightful hostel was not long, for soon we were listed among the pas¬ sengers to sail for Southampton on the “Atlan¬ tia.” This was a German ship during World War I captured by the British and later con¬ verted into a hospital ship in World War II. Now it was re-converted into a passenger ship. It was of 15,000 tonnage and carried about 900 passengers, braving staunchly the rough seas. Fortunately for us children there were a great number of boys and girls going to England. Except for two rough spells of short duration, the first when we neared Aden, and the second, a day before we got to the dreaded Bay of Biscay, the voyage was pleasant. I enjoyed every bit of the nineteen days on board- We had swimming, dances,—when I made myself scarce-—recorded music, music contributed by some of the passengers, community singing, cinema shows, and horse-race games. At the racing one night, our luck was outstanding for we won five out of six races. The races were quite appropriately named: The Aden plate, The Albiers plate and The Bay of Biscay plate, and so on. On the fifth day after leaving Bombay we arrived at Aden. The sea was lovely and smooth. Were we excited to see land? Hardly had the ship been tied up when young Arab boys swam from the shore for the boat where they dived for coins thrown by the passengers. We were allowed to go ashore here. Looking at Aden from the sea is a beautiful sight. We took a taxi into the interior. Our Arab driver insisted on taking us through the burnt and tumble- down areas where the Jews and Arabs had fought. Eventually we persuaded him to show us the world-famous wells that store the town’s water, as it rains once in seven years. The wells were bone-dry and the water had to be piped twenty miles and had a brackish taste. Our ship had stopped at Aden to refuel and to take on water! For the next couple of days, until we got to Port Said, we drank tea and coffee rather than drink the water. Four days later found us at Suez. No one was allowed ashore. Vendors in little boats came alongside our ship and by means of ropes got their wares aboard. The vendors them¬ selves perched on the tops of the masts of their boats and shouted their wares. When we went on, the ship had searchlights fixed on the bows to guide us between the red and green lights of the canal, as there is only enough room for one boat to go through. At the far end of the canal, at Port Said, more vendors with their little boats came long. We then sailed into the Medi¬ terranean- On some occasions we saw land and when this happened everybody rushed to the side. We sailed quite close to Pantellaria (an Italian stronghold in World War II). One night we saw the lights of Algiers and, in the early hours of the morning we passed Gibraltar. We passed through the Bay of Biscay, which was, strange to say, quiet as a duck-pond. Presently we sailed into the English Channel. We had to anchor off the Isle of Wight for the tide. From where we saw it, the island looked quite out of this world. There were large stone houses, probably manors, set in lovely lawns. Oh, what a setting for an artist! Soon we arrived in Southampton, nineteen days after leaving Bom¬ bay. I was more than glad to get my feet on Old Mother Earth again! The first st ep I took on land I fell although the ground was steady, no rolling or pitching at all. Thus ended my trip from India to England. Page Seventy-eight MY LITTLE LADY Rosemary Matthews, Room 39, Grade XI. | M OST people have a natural curiosity con¬ cerning people and things. My curiosity was aroused when I came upon “My Little Lady” which I should like to tell you about. No one knows the story of her past, because long, long ago when I first discovered her, she was unknown and unwanted by everyone. I could not understand how anyone could pass her by unnoticed. In my opinion she stands out above anyone else I have ever seen. By the end of my story you will know what I mean, but i first let me tell you how I found her before she became famous. In a small, insignificant v il¬ lage many years ago, as I was walking down the main street, I discovered her sitting at the cor¬ ner on a long, narrow bench of crude work¬ manship- Her shoes were made of simple peasant design and canvas, and they peered out from under her long, full skirt of cotton broad¬ cloth which was a rich red color. Around her waist she wore a tight-fitting bodice of black ( silk which she had probably acquired from somebody‘s cast-aways and which fitted her pleasantly plump body to a “T.” She wore a thin printed blouse, and over it a coarse- heavily knitted woollen shawl draped across her shoul¬ ders. Over her almost white hair she wore a snug woollen bonnet which matched the colors in her pretty blouse. On her wrist there hung a tiny money bag, and when she lifted her arm high up, displaying her wares, the pennies in¬ side jingled around together and her jolly round face wrinkled up like a prune as her eyes lit up with the smile. The children passing by were enticed to buy from her by the twinkle in her eye and the chirp in her voice as it drifted through the air to them. But still I haven’t told you what she was selling. Well, to do this I must give away part of my secret. She was selling balloons, and Oh! My! what balloons they were. They consisted of all colors of the rainbow: red, yellow, blue, green, violet, orange, and pink. These balloons reminded the children of many things, such as big round juicy apples, delicious bananas, solid green limes hanging on a tree, saucy blue plumes dangling just out of your reach, lovely sweet oranges, and of fluffy candy that every child dreams of. The children thought of these balloons as fruit and candy because they were always hungry. Now, the dear little old lady who was selling these balloons appealed to me in many ways. First of all, she was born of simple country folk who were friendly and honest. Secondly, that she made her living by this trifling occu¬ pation, because she loved to watch the faces of the people in the street. She knew everybody in that tiny village and nearly everybody knew her. When anyone new came to the village, she made it her business to become their friend. She didn’t gossip, although she knew every¬ body’s business, but she was just a kindly old lady who wanted everyone to like her, and this is how I met her- Upon arriving in this village one day I in¬ quired of an acquaintance how I might find some interesting tales that I could use for the magazine for which I worked. She immediately suggested “My Little Lady.” Of course when I met her she knew all about me. She was what I wanted and so we seemed to “click” right away. She liked to talk, as I soon found out, and before I knew it she had told me practically all her family life. She had come out to the new world when she was only seventeen and she had be¬ come the young bride of a prosperous farmer. They had enough to get along on and in time they had raised a family of two sons and a daughter. One of her sons had been killed in the war and the other had been a cripple from birth. Her only daughter had grown up and married the village shoemaker. Her daughter and son-in-law kept her now, and in her earlier life she had had many personal exciting ad¬ ventures, many of which I used for my stories. Now, for some reason or other, this little lady and I became very close friends, and every time I went to that little village I never went away without visiting her. I always knew where to find her because she never gave up selling her balloons as long as she lived, and even thereafter. Ever since I met her I have had the growing desire to write a character sketch of her, but I never quite had the nerve to ask her permission, but when I finally did she was very pleased and helped me a great deal with it. In time I became so attached to this little lady that when I was talking to my friends I got into the habit of calling her mine. Now I would like to recall to your memory something that I mentioned before. That is the fact that she never gave up selling her balloons as long as she lived and even thereafter; for today, “My Little Lady” is the world-famous Royal Doulton bone china figurine, “The Balloon Lady.” Page Seventy-nine INFORMAL ESSAYS . . ON WRITING AN ESSAY Clara Storwick, Room 12, Grade X. J ULIUS was going to write an essay. It was going to tfe an essay for school, and was quite compulsory, or Julius would never have considered it. Oh, Julius had never written an essay before, but if a man called Einstein could think up a theory, surely Julius could write a mere essay. Carefully adjusting his glasses, Julius settled down to his work seriously- He sharpened his pencils, arranged his erasers, laid out his paper, and pounded his pillow into a comfortable mound. Then he seated himself, and came face to face with the first stage of writing an essay. Now, all essay-writers are confronted with this dismaying stage, or the first lap of the journey. If you, on writing an essay, have ar¬ rived at, and succumbed to this experience, you will surely sympathize with poor Julius. This is a period when all semblance to an idea rushes from the head, and all power of thought takes a “leave of absence” for a short while. The brain is filled with a fog, and rigor mortis sets in. Usually, the victim is overcome, and swears off essays, but sometimes this stage is passed without too much mental detriment. Now take, for example, our Julius. He is a young man of determination; he is strong- willed, brave, and persevering. For three hours and some minutes Julius struggled with his brain-child, during which time there were many brow-moppings and chewed pencils, and an abundance of blows for the poor defenceless cushion. Finally, our hero rose triumphant. He had decided what his essay was to be about. Carefully, in his round, neat handwriting, Julius wrote the title at the top of the white page before him. Then he settled back with a deep, satisfied sigh, and surveyed his work. Yes, indeed, it looked very promising there at the top of the page before everything else. Everything else? Julius paused and regarded the paper with a completely blank look. Poor Julius! Before realizing it, he had run smack into stage number two. He should have been told that this essay business had a lot of tricks up its sleeve, leading the poor innocent one to another hurdle, just as he reached the ground from the last one. You will, I am sure, recognize stage number two. It is an old pal, you will say- It deals mainly with the problem of how to begin your ramblings. It involves many chewed pencils with broken leads being mercilessly deserted in the wastepaper basket, along with a quantity of waste paper. One can, with skill, devour half-a-dozen pencils, and waste the same amount of paper, during this period. Returning to Julius, we find he has survived, and is beaming fondly at his first lines, at the cost of the equipment afore-mentioned, and after hours of toil. But wait! What is that we see? It is the poor cushion, quite lifeless, pounded to a pulpy mass. However, it is still doing its duty, for each punch produces a few more lines in the essay. After adding the finishing touches to his second production, Julius finds himself ap¬ proaching stage number three. Here, the ob¬ stacle is to decide what to put into the essay. Having once passed this, the brain overdoes itself, and, taking over the duties of a diction¬ ary, it pours forth reams of nonsense, as the writer finds the paragraphs slipping past, far beyond his control. Here we are, back with Julius, who has been writing unceasingly for “eternities,” and has paused, with feverish eyes, to regard with amazement what he has accomplished. Examin¬ ing it closely, he realizes that these senseless seribblings were emitted by his own hand, and the thoughts by his own brain. Noting the hour with glittering eyes, he decides to end it all! Julius has reached the fourth and last stage. He is considerably weakened now, and does not know whether he can endure to the bitter end. Gripping his last pencil in his leaden hand, he drops his heavy eyes to the paper, repeating to himself, over and over: “I must, I must think of an ending!” His pitiful wail rises to the chimney tops, and echoes back to him, and still Julius slaves on. Working far into the wee hours of the morn¬ ing, Julius is observed to write a few words with heavy hand, rise slowly from the desk, give the limp cushion a last feeble blow, and stagger doggedly to bed. Do not be discouraged by this touching tale, essay-writers. Remember, Einstein wrote a theory. Anyone can write an essay!
