THE WEALTHY ORGANIZATION t Again this year the hard-working Library Club members have contributed their part to the general welfare of the school. The Club is sponsored by Miss Ellwood, and under the direction of Sylvia Willms. At both the school and county meets, the Library Club had a profitable hot dog booth. The work done in the library is often unnoticed by the students, but every member of the Club deserves a great deal of praise for their splendid work and co-operation. — 14 —

Nineteen Fifty c+ 9 - PHOEBUS -(T ' fO A WALK IN THE SPRING Junior Poem Let us take a walk through the wood, While we are in this imaginative mood; Let us observe Nature ' s guiding hand, Throughout this scenic, colourful land. Along a rocky ledge there dwells A fairy with her sweet blue-bells; Singing and dancing through the day, Enchanting all things in her delicate way. A brilliant blue-jay scolds a rabbit, Lecturing him on his playful habit. A lovely butterfly flits through the air, As though in this world it hasn ' t a care. The many birds give their mating calls, Lovelier than the Harp in Tara ' s Halls: A wary doe and her speckled fawn. Creep silently along on their moss-covered lawn. Water cress line the banks of a stream That is the answer to a fisherman ' s dream; Teeming with trout and large black bass That scoot for cover as we noisily pass. The v-line of the geese reappear, Showing that spring is actually here; The swampy marshes are full of duck, In the water and on the muck. The air is filled with a buzzing sound, From above and from the (ground: The air is heavy with the scent of flowers, Of new buds, and evergreen bowers. This precedes Nature ' s endless show, Of all things, both friend and foe, Living in her vast domain, And under her wise rule and reign. Thus within her kingdom lies, Filling scenes for hungry eyes; Also treasures of this natural world, Which, if watched carefully, will be’unfurled. —David Suzuki — 13 —
