Hold back these envious hordes. What ho! -a princely Gift. O marvellous!-a package more rare than jewels. O gold-and-white covered cubes of ecstasy! Long have I wanted a box of that great Western comht Neilson's jersey Milk Chocolate and never coulcll get one through because of the greed of my attendants. Let this thrice welcome stranger be rewarded above the first of my subjects. In such impassioned terms did the Sultan of Khorassan greet Iacky Canuck frizn Canada as that intrepid lad journeyed East in search of adventure and, having saved the greatest of his trading treasures, a 5 dozen box of Neilson's Iersey Milk Chocolate Bars, for the eye of the Sultan alone. was duly and properly rewarded with the lordly position of Grand Wazir of Khorassan. Then by establishing a fleet of aeroplanes between the Court and the Neilson plant in far away Toronto he was able to maintain a constant stream of cases of Ne-ilson's Chocolate Bars for the Sultan's private use and thusmade his position doubly secure. Of course, in due time, he shared the Sultan's throne and bossed the Kingdom. nl' anna f THE BEST MILK CHOCOLATE MADE .- Patronize Our Advertisers. VOX LYCEI Autngraplpa VOX LYCEI 127 J. 8: T.

This issue of another Vox adds one link more to a chain which Q tends to cement the continuity of this school in a peculiar manner, i Q To those who are in attendance at present, it is of considerable in- ! terest, and as years roll on, it becomes more valuable, because it . will recall so many associations spreading over different activities. ! How many requests we have from ex-students for copies of the g Vox for the years in which they attended! ! Upon a few falls the responsibility of laying the plans, select- ! ing suitable assistants, creating interest, and classifying the S material chosen from a promiscuous mass. These silent workers i receive less recognition for their expended energies, still, to them i belongs the credit of bestowing an atmosphere upon the magazine, i which is felt rather than hailed with applause. g Such an Annual as this plays a special role in school life. i There are some students who would pass through our halls un- i known, were it not for some sketch, poem, or bit of humour to i which his name is appended. In the same manner do we remember i our rugby half-backs, b-oxers, tennis stars, and musicians. NYhat ! i an asset it is to have some outstanding trait, which may have been i cultivated in leisure hours! : Various motives may have impelled those who have contributed i to the magazine: they may have longed for a new experience, or i for a share in a competition, or they may have felt the urge of i loyalty to do their share in keeping this publication up to the high Q i standard of those of former years. If successful they have reaped i joy as their reward, which will drive them on to greater efforts. g Herein we may have the lowly beginning of a distinguished i journalist, a famous playwright, a popular cartoonist, or a keen i business man. Any school activity that would help students to i decide what they would like their life-work to be, provided they i have the mental energy to carry on, would be of greatest import- i ance in moulding ideal citizens. And is this too much to hope for i from the Vox Lycei? i F. A. STUART, MA., ! i Principal. i ! ofqnilxiuiuiniui11101010 1oininxuiuioin1u1u:u1u2o:uioiuiuicrioiozc .2.

Xu Q . . ri Tw f fffm, ,,,c....,. .N Editorial Although the personnel of this year's Yox staff has undergone an almost complete change and has been severely handicapped by lack of experience, we modestly hope that this handicap of 'new blood' has been overcome by the co- operation existing among members of the Vox staff and by the enthusiasm that has been exhibited by the student body as a whole. The competition held this year for a new cover design produced a large number of very creditable contributions. A great 'deal of difficulty was ex- perienced by the Vox staff in choosing the winning design before linally decid- ing on the one submitted by Miss Margaret Beckwith, Sli, which is presented in this issue. The drawing submitted by bl. Barber, -lll. is worthy of honourable mention. ln this connection we wish to thank Mr. Hood for judging the draw- ings and choosing the best two from which we in turn made our choice. L'nfortunately, during the winter term, Bliss bl. Muir, MA., our popular Ad- visory Editor, was taken ill and under doctor's orders was forced to resign this position. Mr. H. C. Mann, BA., former Advisory Editor of the Vox, most kindly resumed this duty in order to help us out. XYe are very pleased indeed t.o see that Bliss Muir has sufficiently recovered from her illness to allow her to resume her teaching duties and also take this opportunity to thank Mr. Mann for the great interest he has taken in the Vox Lycei. The advertising problem this year proved to be a diflicult one indeed, owing to the heavy stock slump which tool: place last tall. However, even with this great obstacle confronting it, our advertising staff collected about 391100. worth of ads. Under these adverse circumstances Gordon XYhite and his capable staff are to be most heartily congratulated on their splendid success, This year, as in other years, we have again 'pooled 'our advertising and printing with our sister school, the Glebe. Although the chief purpose of this arrangement is to reduce expenses, nevertheless it also accomplishes another end, namely, that of encouraging the mutual interests and good-will between both schools. In conclusion we most sincerely hope that this yearls issue of the Vox has maintained the high standard of former editions, and wish to extend to future Vox staffs our heartiest good-wishes that they may attain or even exceed the success of 1930.

D. T. Atkinson, MA. to the principalship of Collingwood Collegiate. llr. At- kinson in l1is jovial way was always able to disperse the gloom of a lililll lesson and his aptitude for humorously illustrating such portentous lessons was often astounding to his somewhat bewildered pupils. XYith the great eliiciency which he showed as teacher and cadet administrator, his success at Collingwood is as- sured, Let us give Mr. Meng, his sucessor in the cadet work, our utmost support. Miss li. R. Guthrie, BA.. who strove to instill in us a knowledge of French and S1JZ'llll5ll, and was always of great assistance in Concert preparations, is now enjoying married life as Mrs. XY. l. ljarvock, residing on Daly Avenue. Miss Guthries engagement a11d subsequent marriage set many a Lisgar lassie's heart a-flutter. Miss N. I. Hills, BA.. popular member of last year's English staff, has given up teaching for the present to enter the Civil Service, which she declares to be less profitable but more enjoyable . Miss l. C. Brown. H..-X. is filling Klr. 1Atlii1lSOH'S place very efficiently. She comes to us from Cornwall Collegiate Zlllfl her home is in Brockville. Miss R. Hills, B.,-X. was formerly on the start of Exter College and Hr. G. A. Tilden. BA. was at XYattford High School. We wish the 11ew members of our staff every happiness while with us. g During the autumn term a movement arose to change the colours of the school, wl1ich were considered by some to compare unfavorably with those of other schools. The movement was sponsored by Mr. Drulard and Mr. Blake. who pointed out that the present colours did not contrast enough. Several mass meetings of the boys were held and many vivid colour combinations were sug- gested. Many of the older pupils held out for what they considered to be the traditional school colours and it was decided to retain the original royal blue. Beyond that. opinion was very much divided. Conditions now seem to be al- most in status quo. Another essay competition was held by the Canadian branch of the British Empire Service Legion during the fall ter1n and much interest was shown by all the pupils. The peculiar character of the topic selected by the Legion, My Impressions of XN7ar after re-reading Col. MacRae's poem. 'In Flanders Fields, 2-1.

On going to press we learn that Miss bl.

This year we have been hon- oured by many who have brought to us various messages. 10-i XYinning teams brought to us three outstanding visitors. Mr. John Murphy, president of the Ottawa and District Lawn Tennis Association, presented the Murphy Cup to our girls' tennis team. To the boys' ski team, which carried off all Interscliolastic ski-ing honours for the fifth time, Mr. C. E. Mortureaux, president of the Ottawa Ski Club presented the Southam Trophy. Shortly afterwards Mr. D. Kirby, president of the Cliffside Ski Club, presented the Kirby Cup to the Lisgar team and the Grey Trophy to john Currie. All these visitors expressed their pleasure at being with us and also the hope of again having the opportunity of returning next year. XVe assure them a most hearty welcome. O1 Last November, Rev. C. G. Hepburn paid us a visit. He spoke about Armistice Day and XVorld Peace. The school was greatly pleased with his address and is looking forward to his coming again. O On the occasion of the presentation of diplomas and prizes, Mr. G. O'Leary, well-known Ottawa journalist, gave the school a most interesting talk on Books and Education, one that in material and presentation was well adapted to his audience. This excellent address is printed in this issue of the Yox. O1 Shortly after the opening of the winter term, Alderman York took time to visit the school that he might tell the sudents about Ottawa's traffic laws. His speech was most helpful to those writing Fisher Essays on this topic. 101 More recently, Miss McGeachy, a Canadian member of the Information Section of the Secretariat of the League of Nations at Geneva, paid us a visit. In a clear and interesting way she explained the work and the objects of this fine organization. Such an address is particularly welcomed by members of the fifth form who are studying world history. 10-l Inspector R. W. Anglin, of the Provincial Board of Education, paid his annual visit to Lisgar on April 7. On the morning of his arrival, he spoke a few words to the students from the platform of the Assembly Hall, expressing the hope that his stay would be both beneficial and pleasant to all concerned. He remained four days and then inspected the Glebe school, Before leaving Ottawa, he returned to us on Thursday, April 17, and delivered a most inspir- ing and much appreciated address, the theme of which was 'Spring and its various Interpretations' K.

A form of school government in which the students took part was an innovation at that time. but subsequently, many schools have modelled their Council after ours. 1.01. From its rather humble beginning, the Student Council has blossomed out until now every organization in the school comes under its jurisdiction. It consists of fifteen members. The Honorary President of the Council is the school principal and the President is the President of the Fifth Form. The Glee Club, Drama Club, Boys' Athletic Association, and Girls' Athletic Association are represented by their respective Presidents, the remaining student members being the Commanding Officer of the Cadet Corps, the Editor of the Vox, and a Secretary. Four teachers, one of whom is Financial Administrator, represent the teaching staff. Perhaps in the very near future the number of Lower School members will be augmented. .,O . At the beginning of the school year, it is the dutv of the Student Council to see that the ohicers of the various school organizations are installed. 0?l The financial phase is, perhaps. the most important of the Council's duties. The Annual Concert is practically the sole source of revenue. The funds are placed in the treasury to the credit of the Student Council and. after due dis- cussion and investigation, that body apportions the grants to the different or- ganizations, when, through their representatives, they present their budgets at the beginning of the year. 1O The Student Council meetings are held in the school Library on the first Monday of each month. At these, both members of the staff and students work in harmony for the betterment of the whole student-body. At every meeting, the most weighty problems are discussed and disposed of in a manner creditable to a more august assembly. .....O Associations between teachers and students have been most genial during this year's term, the duties involved pleasant. As the end of the school year is rapidly approaching, we take this opportunity to express the hope that future Councils may enjoy equal success and prosperity. R. A. Sheppard. Vth. 28 VOX LYCEI 'vs 243' Y' The Senior Lyceum The year 1929-30 is one more success added to the record of the Senior Lyceum. The attendance has been only moderate. considering that both upper and lower school were eligible to attend, but the students who were present have declared themselves delighted with the prograinines. Much of this success is due to Mr. Newton Murray, the first term president, who, with the help of the executive, ably guided the Lyceum through the trials and troubles of reorganization. The same energy was manifested by Miss Gwennyth Grant, the second term president, who, with practically no aid from executive or committee, presented a number of excellent programmes. The third term president, Mr. Percival Cawdron, has, at the time of writing, yet to demonstrate his ability, but if he can carry on the good work of his predecessors, which we know he will, his success is certainly assured. The entertainment of the first term was pretty well confined to musical pro- grammes while that of the second term included a French programme and a debate. The annual French meeting was an unqualified success. Those taking part exhibited a wide knowledge and great command of the language. To the staff of the Department of Modern Languages, and particularly to Miss Muir, and Mr. Lalande whose untiring efforts in behalf of this meeting were the largest factor in its success, the Lyceum extends its heartiest thanks for this, one of the most pleasant, as well as the most instructive, meetings of the year. In the short space allowed us, it is hardly possible to give each department of the Lyceum's activities the attention which it perhaps deserves, nor to ex- press to each one separately our appreciation of his or her part in the success of the year. We thoroughly appreciate, however, the service of all pupils who have acted on the executive or taken part' in the programmes, the kindness and unfiagging interest of the members of the staff who have acted as critics, and judges of the debates, and the interest and activity of our members as a whole. lack Cullen, IIIB..

DEACHM-XM evo TOM funior Lyceum The Lyceum, during the season 1929-1930, has been most successful, the Presidents for the three terms being Miss Judith Stothers ILC, Grant Deachman HB, and Miss 'Babs' Edge H.D. It was decided that the method of form pro- grammes be renewed this year. To arouse enthusiasm in the Lower School, a shield is to be given to the form supplying the best programme. Miss Judith Stothers and Grant Deachman, presidents of First and second terms, were very efficient and carried out their duties in a commendable manner. We hope Miss 'Babs' Edge has the best of success the third and last term. The officers of the Junior Lyceum wish to thank the members of the staff who acted as critics during the year. We also wish to thank those who attended the meetings and the many who contributed to the various programmes. Miss Dorothy Lathe IE, proved a very capable secretary and to her thanks are due. I.

The founding' of District Grammar Schools showed the progress of the province in population, since it was the policy of the Government to subdivide large Districts into two or more smaller ones with new centres in each of which was established this kind of school. Some kind of advanced school in each District centre was deemed indispensable as soon as the District was organized. ln llytown, Trustees were selected and a school Board organized at once to do the ground work and hew out the way for the new advanced Grammar School, which the Government desired to found. A principal was appointed and arrived in May 1843 to open the School. His name was Thomas XYardrope. one of the First graduates of Queens Cniversity which had been founded at Kingston in 18-ll. Xlardrope was a young man with a charming personality and a gracious manner as described sixty years later by Dr. George Kennedy. one of his old students. After a brief experience of great success he resigned the mastership to become Minister of the newly formed Free Presbyterian Church. XYhen the then Mr. Xkiardrope arrived at Bytown there was no school ready for him. XYhat could he do but confer with the Trustee lloard, which was al- ready organized. lt consisted of the Rev. Dr. Strong, whose son became Rt. Hon. Mr. -lustice Strong' of the Supreme Court of Canada,-lglishop Phelan, Rev. l. Cruikshanks, Mr. joseph Coombs, and Mr. G. B. Lyon-Fellowes4iive very competent representatives. ln a few days, a frame house on XYaller Street, near to Daly Avenue, was rented and fitted up for the purpose. Rev. Dr. Strong' was the first Chairman of the lioard, and had the honour of inauj.1'urating' Gram- mar School education in this city. lt had not come too soon, for many people were looking' for it, and from the tirst day one modest school-room was comfort- ably filled. There were two teachers who divided the work between them. Such was the beginning in 1943. The students were all boys, English and French speaking, Protestant and Catholic. They got along agreeably from thefirst and the school was a cause of great enthusiasm amongst the parents. Splendid pro- gress marked its work from the First day. The girls had to abide their timel The Grammar School became a splendid asset to the little llytown. the baby capital of the new Dalhousie District. It was a great inducement to settlement in and near Bytown which, in turn, rapidly forged ahead. It was a light in a new centre and evidence that the finer ideas of learning, of the cultivation of the minds and souls of the youth were of first importance. The Crest of the School is an inspiring' one .-Xlere Flammamf' Those pioneers were progressive people. lt was well that in the growth of Ottawa's material wealth and population, learning had from the outset an honoured place-for culture, and all therein implied, in a new city, in a new land, is absolutely essential in order that the highest type of manhood and womanhood be possible. lt means good citizen- ship, good home-life, good legislation and a happier and more contented and progressive people. liytown became itself an entity. self-sustaining and self- supplying its peoples needs, mentally as well as physically. The second Chairman was Dr. Hamnet Hill, who with many others in later years, notably J. P. Featherston, George Hay, Hon. Senator Cleniow, James VOX LYCEI 31 Cunningham, Dr. john Thorburn. G. B. Greene, H. Robillard. Thomas Birkett, and John I MacCracken, rendered good service in High School education. It is true that in the great summing up of things it is the teacher who makes the school and gives personality to it. It is true of the Public and Separate Schools as well as of the High Schools of Ottawa. She has had teachers of high ideals, scholarship, noble and line exemplary moral character on her staffs, from the first, and I think it is true that no School Board would sanction or encourage any other class of Teacher. The Ottawa Collegiate Insti- tute has noble traditions and ideals. and an enviable record in scholarship and learning, unsurpassed by any other school of its class in Canada. Its students spread its fame long ago in our leading Universities. This is in one sense a splendid heritage, lint it is one which imposes a heavy responsibility on the present statis and the students of this city. It is a high standard to maintain, to advance and to hand to posterity,-this line tradition, this educational pres- tigel From 1843 to 1374 the Board of Trustees carried on the Gramar School in rented Buildings. as if a Grammar School were only a temporary necessity! They then secured a very, very small site at the corner of Lisgar and Canal Streets ,contiguous to Cartier Square at a cost of about 33000. In 1874 the city limits were Lisgar Street,-then called Biddy Sreet. Upon this small site, seemingly considered a long distance then from Xlellington Street, was erected :1 substantial stone School, providing good basement accommodation for both boys and girls separately, and in addition three other Hoors for the school classes. It contained an Olhce, a Library Room and three Class Rooms on the ground tioorg four Class Rooms and a Laboratory on the Frst Floor with a rough, spacious, unfinished Assembly Hall on the top floor. Xlfithout any annex this building was satisfactory for the next eighteen years, when four additional class rooms were added on the South,-Lisgar Street side-making a new front to the Building. To these four rooms, were added later three new rooms on the top floor of the new wing, which had not been completed before on this storey. Still later in 1902 the East XYing was added near to the New Driveway. The huge west XYing was added some years later and contains the fine Assembly Hall still in use. As each of these wings was added the rooms in the old original building were remodelled somewhat to adapt them to tit in with the newg but the old 1874 Building, with its Oriel XYindow and the North XYalls. still re- mains intact and renders as good service as it did when it was alone. It is this Building with its three additional wings which forms the Lisgar Street School of 1950, and it stands in all its ancient glory as the Mother Schoolu of to-day, from which have grown up The Glebe School. The Tech- nical School' and now the new High School of Commerce. The old Mother School has a great hold on the older families of Ottawa. On its historic Roll of Honour are inscribed names of many of the sons and daughters of earlier generations back to the year 1861. older even by thirteen years than this Mother School itself. Its position is being maintained well by the able body of Teachers whose labours in its service, whose varied and unchallenged scholarship and skill, and whose organization to meet the demands of modern civilization, stand high in the judgment of the Education Department. It would be impossible to maintain its standing were- it not backed. up by many of our ablest citizens, who, as Trustees, take pride' in the Institution.

For many years have I watched the crowd at Easter time surging to Bermuda-that coral-built isle of the Atlantic -but time would not permit the venture, until Christmas '29 brought with it a few extra holidays and twenty-four hours after arrangements with the C. N. R. were completed, I was on my way. I went by Halifax in order to get the longer Ocean voyage, but many did not enjoy this part as it is the roughest part of the ocean I know of. If one reaches the island after 4 p.m. he remains anchored outside till morning, as the entrance to the harbour is a seven or eight mile winding channel, cut out of the coral reefs which lie beneath the watery surface. Bermuda takes its name from an old Spanish voyageur, -Iuan de Iiermudez. and consists of several hundreds of small islands connected in many cases by bridges. Hamilton is the chief town with a population of two thousand five hundred out of a total population of twenty thousand, one-third of which is white. I arrived on Christmas eve and what a surprise: no shrieking of motor horns: no rattling of tram-cars: just the pitter-pat of the horses' feet as they ambled along from dock to hotel. I have often heard of a green Christmas. but this was my first experience and what a difference! A swim in the morning, tennis in the afternoon. and a dance in the evening. It is like a moving picture without the talkies. In fact the whole life of the Colony to a Northerner. is almost one of monotonous quiet . All travel is done by bicy- cle. carriage, or boat. Little wonder there are no motors. They would scarcely get up speed before they would have to apply the brakes as the group is only twelve miles long and three or four wide. There are many interesting things to see but with only a week one must select. The Aquarium has a magnificent collection of hundreds of fish to be seen at close range. The 'sea gardens' form one of the chief sights where you 34 VOX LYCEI sit in glass bottomed boats and peer through at the various colours of coral and fish twenty feet below. The dockyards. the home of the British North Atlantic fieet, is also worth while. The Islands form the top of an oceanic mountain of coral. and the roads, cut through this coral rock. wind between cedar trees, or hedges of red and white oleander, while most flowers grow in profusion everywhere. The roads are white, the buildings are white. in fact, nearly everything is white, as all such arc made of coral. The climate is semi-tropical: no frost. no snow. It rains easily and sud- denly, but in half an hour everything is dry again. The temperature varies from fifty degrees to seventy-five degrees seldom going below sixty degrees. At noon on Christmas day it was seventy degrees. One might continue to write for hours of the beauty and the quiet. of the colour and the restfulness of such a gem, but time and space do not permit. so let me conclude with 'when shall we meet again?'

They are carried out by ocean liners, and are wonder cruises from 2.000 to 5.000 miles longer than the voyage to Europe-filled with scenes of unusual charm to engage the interest of the traveller. Leaving Los Angeles, the voyage is for the most part in placid seas and under cloudless skies. The ship's course is always near land. The high, blue mountain ranges of the Pacific coastline, the palm fringed strands of coral islands and keyes tropic peaks. tipped in clouds, old Spanish cities. and finally the sandy beaches of the eastern seaboard, follow one another in dissolving scenes of an entrancing panorama. On every voyage the ship pierces the serried spine of the Continental Divide at the Isthmus and also calls at gay and colourful Havana. For days. one steams in brilliant sunshine over sparking waters of cerulean blue: for nights one is under the spell of the star-gemmed splendour of southern heavens. or of tropic moonlight. :Xpproaching the Canal from the Gulf of Panama. one sees a coast of hazy- blue and lofty mountains, sometimes hung with light. fieecy clouds. The ship turns at the Canal entrance and goes alongside a fine, large government dock at Balbow. the city built by Americans as their official headquarters in the Canal Zone. One strong impression of the Canal settlement is their distinctively Ameri- can character. Not only has a native been made the hand-maiden of the engineers, but the old careless. irresponsible standards of living that have hitherto existed in the towns of the Isthmus have given place to the manners and customs of the North. Yet the old style of life on the Isthmus exists still in Old Panama, which adjoins Balboa, and is immensely interesting to the tourist. It is a bit of the Old XYorld set down beside the sparkling blue waters of the Pacific. In the ship's passage through the Canal. the First striking feature. after passing through Mirafiores Locks across Miraflores Lakes and raised 85 feet above sea level by the Pedro Miguel Locks. is of course Gaillard or Culebra Cut, with its towering rock sides-the very backbone of the continent. Next is the VOX LYCEI 35 strange, exortic beauty of Gatun Lake, through which the ship steams at a level which is above the hilltops of adjacent valleys. Across Cwatun Lake lies the great Gatun Dam, and the Cratun locks beside it that drop the ship 85 feet to the level of the Atlantic. Six miles further, and the ship passes Colon the old Cristobal and the new. the towns at the Atlantic end of the canal. From the Panama Canal the ships of the Panama Pacific Line proceed direct to Havana, arriving there in four days. Here the stay is long enough to permit an automobile tour around the city, a most attractive place, with its houses of soft pink and blue, its narrow picturesque business streets. its venerable cathedral, its broad esplanades. its large hotels and its friendly cafes-and everywhere its laughing people: talking a patois of lisping Spanish that sounds strange to American ears. From Havana, the remainder of the voyage to New York seems short. The ship has the current of the Gulf Stream with her. Coastwise shipping is seen, and usually the New jersey beaches are in view for some time before the High- lands of Navesink and Sandy Hook are passed-guardians of the gateway to New York Harbour. Finally passing Ellis Isle Quarintine in the early morning of the eighteenth day of the voyage, you get a glimpse of the renowned statue of Liberty, through the mist and fog, and steam into harbour just a little unhappy that the entrancing sea voyage is over. ERIC BLACKBURN-III-H. lfwtfz a Lisgar Boy on Board a Destroyer A few years ago, when I was in the Navy, I had a very thrilling experience in a rough voyage across the Bay of Biscay, which is notorious for its terrible storms. The ship, on which I was a member of the crew, was a tiny destroyer, a lean greyhound of the sea, which was bound for Esquimalt via Africa, South America, and the Panama Canal. It was built very long and narrow, for speed, the upper deck being only eight feet above the water. lVe left Portsmouth one raw, cold day in March, steaming past huge battle- ships that towered over us, past the Royal Yacht and Nelson's old flagship Victory , saluting each in turn, and then out on the uneasy waters of the English Channel. Here we encountered the infamous Channel Chop, which materially decreased the number of those who were enjoying the view on deck. During my watch on the bridge from eight p.m. to midnight, we en- countered many ships of all sizes, from gargantuan liners. passing in a blaze of lights, to fu:-sy little tugs, blowing their whistles in imitation of their ponderous sisters, as well as a few belated fishing smacks, with their clumsy brown sails. tacking harbourward. We reached Eddystone lighthouse, the scene of Grace Darling's heroic exploit and here I was relieved from duty. VVhen I came on watch again at four a.m., we had entered the dread con- fines of the Bay of Biscay: the world was a vast heaving mass of grey-green water, each wave breaking over the ship, and 1naking it extremely dangerous to move about on deck. The ship was performing many queer gyrations. rolling over until it seemed she would surely capsize, and then lurching back on the other side she would bury her nose deep into the giant comber. coming up m a smother of foam. I struggled up the companion-ladder to the bridge, and arrived, gasping and half-blind from salt water. Our sister ship was faring as badly as we were, and very often all that could be seen of her was the mast- 36 VOX LYCEI head, showing over an intervening wave. The remainder of my watch is a painful memory I would rather overlook, as I began to feel a bit queer, and ceased to take an active interest in my surroundings. The sea was so violent, that the ship was obliged to slow down to six knots, and our speed through the water was barely three knots. Meals became very sketchy affairs, attended only by a few hardy souls. I had lost all interest in meals until supper, when, fortified by an afternoons siesta on the iron deck, I partook of a few sea biscuits and some cold ham. Dishes seemed to have sud- denly been imbued with life and had to be watched very closely to prevent brcakages, which would call down upon one the just wrath of one's shipmates. The washing up afterward was performed under the greatest difficulties, and was a triumph in the art of balance. That night was the worst of the storm: the wind was like the howling of a thousand demons. and blew the spray up into my face with great force-like shot thrown into it. My sea-sickness had left me, and I began to enjoy the grandeur and power of the storm, which was now at its height. At times the wind would drop to a calm, and then, seemingly, would blow with increased force. During one of these periods. a ball of St, Elmo's Fire, a curious manifestation of static electricity, perched on the mast-head for a moment and then vanished. This at one time was regarded with superstitious awe by sailors. Farly in the morning, a stupendous sea struck the ship, and the mast snapped off at the maintop, crashing down in a tangle of writhing stays and aerial wires. At each roll of the ship the mast swung around in a huge arc from its stump, a veritable scythe of destruction, threatening to wreck the bridge and the wireless cabin. The pipe of the bo'sun's mate shrilled out. Clear lower deck! All hand muster on the bridge! The watch came tumb- ling up from below in various stages of dress, wiping the sleep from their eyes and scrambling up to the bridge. Then began the dangerous task of securing the whipping mass of destructive wreckage. A half hour of terrific effort and we succeeded in lashing it safely down. The aerial was a hopeless tangle. I swarmed up the stump of the mast and rigged a temporary aerial. From my precarious perch it seemed as though I would be dipped under the water at each roll. - Early on the following morning we passed the Straits of Gibraltar. leaving the storm behind. H. Carstens, IIIA. lfwtfz a Lisgar Girl in England Land! At last after an uneventful voyage across the Atlantic, through the drizzly fog of a typical English rainy day could be seen the green cliffs of Land's End, visible a short time after passing Eddystone lighthouse. VVe continued sailing parallel with the South coast of England. Toward evening, lighthouses, one after the other along the coast, flashed out their messages of warning. At daybreak the next morning, the white cliffs of Dover with the sun streaming down on them, presented a beautiful sight. As we sailed along. these cliffs gradually lessened in height until they were very low. Groups of farm houses and cottages with whitewashed walls and thatched roofs dotted the landscape. During the afternoon of the following day, the mouthgiof the River Thames was reached. At Gravesend on the Thames, we saw several battleships and the Government dockyards. Farther on the river narrowed and the busy traffic of ships passing up and down announced the fact that we were nearing London. VOX LYCEI 37 On board everybody was rushing and bustling. Passengers were hurriedly packing last-minute boxes. Stewards were preparing for landing. London was in sight. After an exciting time waiting for the ship to dock, we said good-bye to it, and were on our way to Fenchurch Station, London. On arriving at Fenchurch Station, having sufficient time, we decided to walk to Vtfaterloo Station in order to see something of the city. This was my first sight of London: London with its noisy and numerous busses, crowds of bustling people, modern stores and tea rooms, picture houses and theatresg and then the other London, the London of historical days with its famous Parliament Buildings, its Tower, its Bridge, St. Paul's Cathedral and XYestminster Abbey. At Waterloo Station, we took a train for Bournemouth, a town on the South coast of England. Owing to the crowd, we had to take an end coach. We then travelled steadily for three long hours. I thought the train rather rocky, but did not mind it very much. About 9 p.m. we finally reached our destination, after what had seemed to me to be an endless! journey. From the station. we were: whisked home in an automobile which was driven 'round street cars and stopped at nothing. In England they have very few traffic regulations. As this was my first experience of English travelling, I thought to myself that it might be very good. but that I would have to get used to it before I could enjoy it. Vlfell, I did eventually get used to driving without traffic regulations and from Bournemouth took many motor trips. the most enjovable ones being in spring time. The soft note of the cuckoo is the first herald of an English Spring. Blue- bells and primroses, covering the low hills and valleys like a carpet, are the next arrivals. Daffodils grow wild by the roadside. In more cultivated parts rhodo- dendrons in great profusion present a mass of scarlets, whites, mauves, and pinks. In sheltered places, deep purple and white violets give out a fascinating perfume. In summer, the children fiock to the sea-front and play in the foaming breakers and on the sandy beach. ,In autunm, mauve and white heather and yellow gorse cover that wild open space known in England as 'the moors.' The leaves on the trees change from green to bright yellows and scarlets. Then winter comes with its foggy and rainy days. Qccasionally snow falls and in the northern parts small rivers freeze over. This is a big event for the school children who get out their skates and have a 'great time.' Unfortunately, the ice does not last very long. ' Winter is the time when the manufacturing cities, such as Sheffield and Leeds, seem particularly dirty and dreary. The cold, damp, sticky fog clings to everything and leaves behind a trail of dirt and soot. XVhen a fog is particularly heavy it is impossible to see the light from the street lamps. In this season the fire-place-the only heating apparatus of most English homes-is most appre- ciated. Members of the family cluster 'round these fire-places with their faces burning and their backs freezing. So the winter passes and spring comes once more. But the English get hardened to their winters and though they do not like the rain and fog, they take them philosophically. One cannot forget the scenery of England. It is beautiful. It vividly recalled to my mind Rudyard Kipling's poem, The Glory of the Gardenf' in which he pictures the beauty and order of the English countryside: l Our England is a garden that is full of stately views. Of borders, beds and shrubberies and lawns and avenues, With statues on the terraces and peacocks strutting byg But the Glory of the Garden lies in more than meets the eye. CHRISSIE HANBY-I-E. 38 V O X L Y C E I lfwilz a Member of the Staff in Holland' To the tourist who has been privileged to travel through Switzerland, gaze in wondering admiration at Mount lllanc, Mount Pilatus and the hlungfrau, Holland may seem at first strangely flat and uninteresting. However, this sensation soon passes, for Holland has a fascination, a picturesqueness, distinct from that of any other European country. It was during the summer. of 1928. when Amsterdam was getting ready for the Olympic Games, that we had the pleasure of visiting the country. Flags of every nation waved merrily in the breeze-the city was cn fifvf' Trade, carried on with the East India Company, has made Amsterdam a city of wealth and importance. It is the seat of the diamond trade of the world. Here diamonds from Africa are cut, polished and set. But there is another side to Amsterdam, it was the home of Rembrandt. Here we see his most famous painting, Anatomy, and many other treasures. The Hague has a population of four hundred thousand, and is the capital of the Netherlands. The royal palace, called the House in the XVood, has a very plain exterior, but the inside is very beautiful. China and Japan have each furnished a room in it and seemed to vie with each other in the splendour of ornamentation. The chandelier in the Japanese room is composed of cups and saucers of the finest. most transparent porcelain. The walls of the Chinese room are beautifully adorned with birds, painted on rice paper, but their plumage is real. The art gallery has been decorated, both ceiling and walls, by famous artists. There are chairs of tortoise shell and brass, tables of ebony and a clock presented by Napoleon I., which indicates the day, month and year as well as the time. The library contains one million volumes, But the distinctive feature of Holland is that wonderful network of canals, through which the commerce of the country is distributed. In Amsterdam alone there are four hundred canals and eighty bridges. The cleanliness of Holland is proverbial, but the industry and resourcefulness of the Dutch people is equally noteworthy. A great deal of the line agricultural land on which the cattle graze, making Holland a famous dairy producer, has been reclaimed from the sea. Dykes keep back the encroaching ocean and windmills also check its ravages. lYhat the automobile is to America, the bicycle is to Holland. On a fine day one may see hundreds upon hundreds of young people travelling alongside the canals on their bicycles, taking an outing. D. A. 3lacKAY, M. A.

In their presentation XYho's Crazy Now? they scored a distinct hit, and caused many a sore side. This was due to the hard work of our new director, Mr. A. H. Irwin, B.A., and to 'Weldy Graham, our president, who selected the play. The cast included Lillian de Glloqui. Dorothy Rainey, Bob Dunne. Robert Laughton and IYeldy Graham. At several Lyceunis the Drama Club presented short skits. Taking roles in these were Hilda Salmon, Dot Rainey, Hugh Bedford-Jones ,Gerald Rickwood and XYeldy Graham. The Drama Club has again had the honour of playing at Glebe Collegiate and at other entertainments. and promises another production in the Spring Term, if it will not encroach upon the examinations. And in conclusion may we take this opportunity of thanking both Miss I. C. Brown and Mr. A. H. Irwin for their invaluable assistance and the great interest they have taken in our club.

Mary Ogilvie, IIIE. 40 VOX LYCEI The Eighteenth Annual Concert It has come-and gone-and some happy memory remains with everyone who helped to make the Eighteenth Annual Concert a huge success. Many impressions crowd in upon one's memory. be it some sweet cadence that caught the fancy, some bit of humour that delighted the imagination, or some grace of motion that charmed the vision. To loyal graduates and friends of Lisgar who Hocked to the school both evenings there was offered, as well as a good show, the opportunity of meeting old school friends and of treading the dear old halls once more. The result of it all was most gratifying indeed to those in charge of finances. The Chairman of the Concert Committee, Mr. E. Lapensee and his assistants, doubtless watched the curtain ring down on the final performance with a feeling of justifiable pride and satisfaction. Their efforts were crowned with success. According to precedent the performance was divided into three main parts -a musical revue, an athletic exhibition, and a play by the Drama Club. Punctuality being one great feature of life at Lisgar, the Concert com- menced well on time with a rousing overture by the School Orchestra, under the skilled baton of Dr. Bearder. Two other excellent numbers were rendered during the course of the programme. Though we sometimes appear to take our Orchestra for granted, we all deeply appreciate the work involved, the marvellous results achieved, and the consequent cheery iniiuence on our school life. The opening chorus Heigh-ho, Everybody was a pleasing ensemble of beauty and youth. XVe do not know just how much of the former to attribute to the magic of Miss Shaver and her assisting artists, but we do know that the appearance of the latter was greatly enhanced as a result. The members of the Glee Club staged another bright number If You're in Love, You'll XValtz, during which four couples of waltzers par excellence presented to the audience the charms of this ever popular dance, Six jolly boys with Ted Kent as soloist made a decided hit with their song Time to Go. Indeed the musical revue revealed a number of highly talented soloists in the various branches of the arts. Lois Bothwell, who needs no introduction to a Lisgar audience, sang The Piper of Love, and once more charmed everyone with her rich lyric soprano. Miss Gladys O'Neill and Hugh Bedford-Jones sang very gaily Something's Happened , and delighted all present with their dancing also. Their bright smiles proved infectious. Miss Freda Farmer entertained her audience with a humorous monologue in modermstic vein. Her outstanding ability as an elocutionist won hearty applause. and she responded with a popular encore. Lillian de Olloqui. our versatile Fifth Former, provided moments of sheer delight to lovers of the violin in her solo Friday evening, as did Max Ginsberg the second evening. Their beauty of tone, finish of phrasing and authority of interpretation made us realize that we have reason to be proud of two such musicians in our midst. Indeed we know that Dr. Bearder places great con- fidence in their ability, as also in that of the talented pianist in the school orchestra-Harris Crowson. Ethel Quinn's solo performance-an acrobatic waltz-was a classic. Her sweet grace captivated all. VOX LYCEI 41 . Quite in a different mood, but excellent in their own way were the Lisgar High Steppers, a group of nine very chic looking misses who portrayed vividly the ups and downs of modern dancing. Their rather difficult number was performed with ease, due to their careful training by Miss Gwendolyn Osborne. The Girls' Athletic Exhibition staged by Miss Smith included a set of Danish exercises-a unique display of glorified arm and knee jerks done to peppy tunes. This number called for intense practice and a clear head at all times. The perfection of execution revealed both. The blue and grew' cos- tumes were most effective. ' As a second number five girls with Miss Ethel Quinn as soloist gave a very pretty and graceful interpretive balloon dance- Bubbles , in Grecian costume. Miss Smith was the inspirer and director of this feature also. The Boys' Athletic Exhibition gained a place of honour through the skil- ful performance on the horizontal bar of ten boys, under the direction of H. Carstens. The musical accompaniment was very effective, and at points of exceptional daring and brilliance the momentary suspension of the music height- ened the effect. joseph Lieff's work was spectacular, and typical of what Mr. Drulard can do with his boys. The two midgets did their stuff at a dizzy height with a precision and ease which greatly amused the audience. A pleasing interlude in the programme Friday evening was the presence on the platform of Mr. F. A. Stuart, Principal of Lisgar Collegiate. In his brief address he welcomed the large audience and expressed his gratitude for their loyal interest in school affairs. I-Ie also thanked the members of the Concert Committee and their assistants for their untiring efforts in preparing such an excellent programme. Saturday evening Mr. Stuart had as his guest Dr. Mc- Dougall of Glebe Collegaite, who delivered the Principals address. He is always very welcome on Lisgar Assembly platform, and was in his usual good form. The one-act farce produced by the Drama Club was screamingly funny- literally speaking-for there was lots of screaming and lots of fun. Mr. Irwin who filled the role of Dramatic Critic this year was showered with congratula- tions on the results of his efforts. Robert Laughton, a newcomer to the Lisgar stage proved himself to be a very winning crook, and his histrionic ability was a revelation to all. Miss Lillian de Olloqui was typical as a maid of sixty-five who was completely over- come by her first head-on collision with Cupid. Her excellent acting received merited applause. Robert Dunne showed that he had mastered the art of bring- ing in trunks, and as Officer Muldoon later in the play, his Irish brogue was most convincing. Perhaps the most dflicult role was that of Armadillan, the little chocolate- drop maid, played by Miss Dorothy Rainey. She was inimitable, and could do more things with a duster and a pair of rolling eyes than anyone we have ever met. Her piercing screams must have been practised on real burglars. Weldy Graham, well-known to Lisgar audiences won immediate favour in his comic and clever portrayal of the much misunderstood and abused Professor Timothy Twitters. We feel sure that if VVeldy were to walk down Kemptville main street in that coon coat and silk topper plus his make-up, Premier G. Howard Ferguson would be almost forgotten in his native town. Such a talented group of actors We feel could attempt something perhaps more pretentious another year. We wish them luck! 1 Much of the success of the 1930 Concert was due first to the lnspiration which comes from a packed house both nightsj For this we must thank Mr. Meng who did noble work in pushing the sale of tickets. In the second place 42 VOX LYCEI the whole progrannne was handled without delay, thanks to the keen calcula- tions of Mr. Strader and his trusties behind the scenes. Like the proverbial rose born to blush unseen they carried on mystic operations akin to the un- loading of Barnum and Baileys three-ringed wonder in the good old days. li. Rickwood. Director of Stage: S. XYallace, assistant: A. R. Tilley, Director of Properties, and Mr. XY. Smeaton. Director of lighting, and their Connnittees did much to make the Concert a success. Nor do we forget tiordon Ogilvie and his efncient Cadet ushers, who en- deavoured to make each one in the audience comfortable. A bevy of fair Lisgar maidens ministered to the inner inan between acts, with tempting fudge and other varieties ot loud tor the Gods. Mrs. Lewis was was the unseen force behind this successful movement. The Concert Connnittee appreciated very much the kindness of A. Frei- inan Ltd., and the Little Theatre for the generous loan of stage furnishings, and that of XYillis X Co., for the use uf the piano. And now we must cease being fondly retrospective and abandon our hunt for the elusive synonym. However we would like to say that as a newcomer, our initiation into Lisgar Annual Concerts has been a tliorouglily pleasurable experience. l. C. ISIQOXYN, M, .X.

Neyer before did thc school look so cheery, jovial and beautiful as on that night when more than two hundred young folk danced away one of the most pleasant occasions of their school life. And not only was the At Home a social success, but a decidedly Financial one too. The Boys' Gymnasium was transformed beyond recognition with bunting, streamers, Bags and gayly decorated Christmas trees. The Ciirls' Gymnasium and the Art Room were also expertly decorated by lsobel Christie's squad. :Xclding greatly to the beauty of this uncxcclled scene were the gay frocks and gorgeous evening' gowns worn by the young ladies: and many an ex-student sighed to think of what he is missing. Much enjoyment was added by the presence of Dr. and Mrs. McDougall, who with Mr. and Mrs. Stuart, Mrs. B. S. Lewis. Mr. and Mrs. Strader, Robert Sheppard and Miss Marguerite Boyd, received the guests. The music was sup- plied by an excellent orchestra under the skilled baton of Les Stanley, and dancing' continued from 8.30 to midnight. Great credit is due to Miss Muir and Miss Smith who headed the refresh- ment committee. and whose knowledge ot culinary art was not a small factor in making' the 'fAt Home the brilliant success it was. Thanks are also due to the At Home committee at large, and to the many teachers who helped make the occasion more home-like by their presence.

Thus Dr. Bearder was faced with the problem of breaking in some of the students from the lower forms, an arduous task to say the least. After a short time, however, these soon became accustomed to orchestra 'life' and ever since September the orchestra. we think. has been improving steadily in its rendering of selections. Even it it is not quite so large as might be expected for the size of the school, the quality of the music produced does not suffer from it. Still, Dr. Bearder is looking forward to the day when our numbers will reach fifty, for, during the past few years the average attendance has only been between thirty and forty. True, once in a while the consciences of the lazy ones prick them and they, temporarily, come up to help us out, and then it reaches forty-live or so, but what we need most, instead, is a definite number of players who will turn out every morning. Those who turn out at present are not only benefiting themselves by so doing, for in many cases, it is the only practice they get, but they also help to brighten up the morning exercises of the school. Indeed, what would the opening exercises be like without an orchestra? im -A vox LYCEI Then, too, besides playing the lighter pieces on regular school mornings, heavier operatic works are attempted at our weekly practices, held at lZ.3O each XYednesday noon, under the able direction of Dr. Bearder, and onlv those who have taken part can realize the kick we get out of the playing. i This year three new songs were introduced into the morning exercises and they met with instant approval from the students, who apparently enjoy new pieces as well as we. A fme orchestra pin was also obtained and proved very popular. In conclusion, on behalf of the orchestra executive, let me extend a hearty invitation to any player who has not as yet joined our ranks to come and take his place in this, one of the school's most vital organizations. A. I-I. CRQXVSQN, IV-A. Books ana' Education From an address by M. Grattan O'Leary, Associate Editor of The Ottawa journal, delivered before the Students of the Lisgar Collegiate Institute on December 19, 1929. I speak to you as one who. compelled to leave school at the age of thirteen, has had reason all through life to know and to appreciate the value of educa- tion. And the education I have in mind is not that which merely teaches men to remember, but rather that which teaches them to think: the sort of education which helps men to debate a thing through to the truth: the quality of learning which Lord Morley had in mind when he said that an educated man was a man who knew when a thing was proved. There are several ways, I suppose, by which one might secure an education of that kind. But I suggest to you young people today that there are few better ways of doing it than by cultivating now and maintaining throughout your lives a knowledge of the great writers of the present and the past. Literature alone will not make a good citizeng it will not make a good man. History, indeed, affords all too many proofs that scholarship and learning by no means purge men of rancor, of vanity, of arrogance, of what somebody has called a murderous tenacity about trifiesf' But what I do hold is that books help us to distinguish the false from the true: assist us in interpreting virtue and justice: awaken within us the diviner mind and rouse us to a consciousness of what is best. That, after all, is education. I am far from supposing that everybody is born with the ability for using books, for reading and studying literature. On the contrary, I frankly admit that the habit and power of reading with reflection, comprehension, and memory all alert and awake, does not come at once to the natural man any more than many other sovereign virtues. YVhat I do venture to press upon you is that it requires no superhuman force of will in any young man or woman to get at least half an hour out of every day for disinterested reading. Some will say that this is too much to expect, and the first persons to say it will be those who waste their time most. Now, in half an hour you can read fifteen or twenty pages of Burke: or you can read some of the greatest masterpieces of prose or poetry. I ask you to multiply that half-hour by 365, and consider what treas- ures you will have laid up by the end.of the yearg and what happiness, fortitude and wisdom they might give you during all the days of your life. Not that you should try to read everything. The object of reading is not to dip into everything that wise men have ever written. In the words of one of the most winning writers of English that ever existed-Cardinal Newman- VOX LYCEI 47 the object of literature in education is to open the mind, to correct it, to refine it, to enable it to comprehend and digest its knowledge, to give it power over its own faculties, application, Hexibility, method, critical exactness, address and ex- pression. May I stress, for just a moment, the word 'expressionl? As a journalist, I am often asked by young men how they may learn to write. Frankly, I am not sure just what should be done. But I do beg leave to doubt, with all respect to those who are your teachers, the excellence and utility of the practice of over-much essay-writing. I have very little faith in rules of style, though I have an unbounded faith in the virtue of cultivating direct and precise expres- sion. But you must carry on the operation inside the mind, and not merely bv practising literary deportment on paper. It is not everybody who can command the mighty rhythm of the great masters of human speech, who can equal a Macaulay or a Gibbon. But everyone can make reasonably sure that he knows what he means, and whether he has found the right word. These are things that cannot be gained by writing for writings sake. They can be found only in thought, in a true love for the glories of our English speech. It is something we should all try to cultivate. For we Canadians are notoriously deficient in our use of English. XVe are prone to sneer at oratory and eloquence, to ignore the value of correct expression, to extol the virtues of the strong silent man . It is all a profound mistake. Vkfords, after all, are what distinguish man from the animal, and they have been the great agency through which liberty and civilization and all mighty human causes have pro- gressed down through the centuries. XVhenever I dwell upon these things, I think of what was once said by Mr. Rudyard Kipling at a Royal Academy banquet in London in 1906. It was then that Kipling used his immortal phrase describing the beginning of human speech, how a 'masterless man' arose and discovered words that 'became alive and walked up and down in the hearts of all his hearers'. And continuing, this great English phrase-maker said: 'The magic of literature lies in words, and not in any man. XYit- ness, a thousand excellent strenuous words can leave us quite cold or put us to sleep, while a bare half hundreds words breathed by some man in his agony, in his exultation, or in his idleness. genera- tions ago, can still lead whole nations into captivity, can still open to us the doors of three worlds, can stir us so intolerably that we can scarcely bear the look of our soulsf And two years later Kipling used equally inspiring words in an address to the Royal Literary Society: 'Gut of letters, and letters only, have proceeded, since history be- gan, those words which have gained men single or in mass-those phases by which the world has striven to live-for which the world has sometimes been content to die. After all, the phrase-the naked phrase-is the power which makes or umnakes the king- doms and the glories'. And so my advice to you young men and women this morning is to culti- vate and sustain a love for good books. They will teach you more of life and truth and beauty. They will give to you a deeper appreciation and understand- ing of the majesty and the glory of the heritage of our English speech. They will encourage you in victory, be your consolation in defeat: be your truest friends and companions when you yield to the conquering years. -I- Ia CORPS CADET TH E 94th OF' OFFICERS V05 LYCEI Casey. e, I.. rri Cu J H.'w S. ru y. eaton Emi - ,O E42 0 5 IEE ,td 'UM E5 , 2-.2 IIE - U1 IEQ 20 KU 59,5 urs: -2- 55 :- Omni ! lei O ,E-65 IIB :Im .U .ng DSO' 2 :E O V1-u ES OE nf I. 2 EE 2 'U E 2 VOX LYCEI 49 21.9 . fi Cv T- T X. f 9 ' in if it 1 I 1 E ZF -U:-7 ' Cadet Corps . The- Cadet Corps, the medium through which our school is directlv 'tsso ,X ' 1 . ,- ciated with our Federal Government, is an extremely valuable organization. By Joining the Corps, a student shows that he has the right school spirit, and that he wishes to learn how to work with his fellow students in har- mony and with precision. The old slogan, join the Cadets is having effect, and we are proud to say that this year's enrolment is considerably greater than that of last year. This increased interest in the Corps gives the officers renewed hopes that Lisgar will distinguish herself in the coming inspection early in May. 1Ve were unfortunate to lose Mr. XY. D. T. Atkinson. our Cadet Administra- tor, who did such fine work in managing the Corps. In June, last year, Mr. Atkinson by accepting the principalship of the Collingwood Collegiate Institute, was forced to leave us. XVe, the members of the 94th Corps, wish him every success in his new office. Mr. Atkinson's place has since been ably hlled by Mr. L. H. Meng, who is well known to all of us, having been associated with the school for many years. Knowing Mr. Meng's ability as administrator, the school may rest assured that he will do everything in his power for the improvement of the old 94th. G. S. Ogilvie-Yth. The 1929 Cadet Inspection The increased freedom of movement gained in having the 1928 inspection on Cartier Square was a deciding factor in having the 1929 inspection at l.ans- downe Park, where there was still more room for the Brigade movements. The Brigade consisting of Lisgar 94th, Technical 775th, and the Cwlebe lO7Oth formed up on the Glebe School campus on the afternoon of May 17th. It was then taken over by Brigadier S. Stanyar and marched to Lansdowne Park, where it was formally inspected by Lt. Col. B. E. Boak, D.S.O. The procedure of the inspection was an exact replica of previous years and thus does not need further description. After the- inspection the Brigade formed a hollow square and the McGuire Cup. emblematic of the best company on par- ade was presented. The Glebe A Company showed its superiority on the March Past to win this coveted trophy. Silver medals were also presented to 'J1 TEAIVI OOTING SH VOX LYCEI Hirsch. hnan, F. H. Marr ott, J.

The Brigade then reformed line and marched past in column of route before the saluting base. The Battalions then disengaged, and each company dispersed but not one cadet left until he had received his full quota of ice cream and ginger ale, refreshments which have been a pleasant feature of the last two inspections. G. S. Oglivie, Vth. The Cadet Dance The Cadet Dance, assuredly the most colourful of all school dances, took place, on the night of the inspection, in the Glebe gymnasium under the capable management of the Glebe Corps. The dance was open to all those cadets who had been on parade that after- noon and who had lady friends to accompany them, as a stag line was not allowed. Besides Cadets, there were many visitors from the various units of the Ottawa Garrison, whose full dress stood out in marked contrast with the khaki of the Cadets. Dancing commenced about nine o'clock, and after seven or eight numbers the Grand March took place, led by Dr. and Mrs. A. H. McDougall. The Grand March was followed by refreshments, after which dancing was resumed and continued till midnight. It was, undoubtedly, the most successful and pleasant dance of the year. G. S. Ogilvie-Vth. Shooting ' On contemplating the details of this year's shooting one hesitates whether to cheer or to lament. At first glance the latter would seem to be the fitter, for were we not, soon after the summer holidays, forced to enter in the King George Match a team which lacked no less than six of the eight members who com- posed it the previous year? For what could we possibly hope from a team of novices with only two old hands to steady them? But, stay your tears for a moment, a surprise was waiting. No! Wfe did not find that the team had learned to shoot by mail, but it seems that three or four had been practising during the summer, and besides, to our ranks came a sharpshooter from Nepean High School. Let us see what happened. E Headed by Forbes Hirsch with eighty-nine and ninety, a truly remarkable and almost incredible score, considering the conditions of the match. our mus- keteers swept on to secure a magnificent total, one which gave them third place in the Dominion-wide match. They were only twenty-seven points behind the winners of first place, our contemporaries from the Glebe School. For having contributed their share in the good work done, we thank the volunteer markers from both schools who by their efficient services did much to make the scores what they were. Credit is also due to Mr. Carter who coached the teams. In the case of indoor competitions we may mention first the Laura Secord, which is noteworthy chiefly because our Bruce fMacCallumj dropped only one point out of a possible century and also because our teams secured third place in it. This means a pound of chocolates for each member of the team. As an item of interest, the Glebites bagged first place in this match too, and to them we extend our heartiest congratulations. 52 VOX LYCEI At the time of writing, only one stage of the D. C. R. A. match has been fired, and thus, little can be said about it. If anything is to be regretted this year. it is the fact that too few pupils of the school are participating in this great sport. Hence. herein, cadets are re- minded that the range is o tl fi l are welcome. Before closing, we desire also, to thank those officers of the 38th Battalion, who made it possible for our cadets to shoot xx ith tl t ' l ' h pen te rst tiree afternoons of each week, and all ...e - - ' ta unit curing t e summer holidays. G. E. R.. Vth. Szgnallzng This year the high standard of signalling in the Lisgar Collegiate was fully maintained. The cadets got off to a good start with the two courses held in the fall. One of these courses was in Cadet Semaphore. the other in Cadet Morse signalling. They were open to the cadets of the Teclmical School and also to those of Lisgar and Glebe Collegiates. Lisgar was well represented at these courses. Then, this spring, a more advanced course was introduced, which had never before been open to Ottawa cadets. A cadet, to be able to take this course. had to hold certificates in the other two above mentioned. It is worthy of note that the candidates for this course were entirely, with the exception of one, recruited from the ranks of Lisgar Cadets. Those who took the course are to be highly commended on their good work, for they rank now among the best qualified cadet signallers in Ottawa. H. G. Marriott, Yth.

XYe were still in khaki, and on full pay augmented by a liberal allowance to buy haggis in lieu of the ancient cod- hsh and Australian veal, known to the vulgar as rabbit, with which the govern- ment had fed us at camp. After a couple of months' lectures, we were unex- pectedly told that we would have a month's holidays for Easter. I don't know whether the Army authorities knew about this or not: but we certainly didn't enlighten them, and we accepted the days of rest with gratitude. After loafing for about three of the weeks in Edinburgh, two of us found ourselves slightly wearied of our diet of oatmeal porridge, and decided to try the potatoes in Ireland. Each of us had-mirabile dictu-about fifteen pounds of good old British currencyfso we planned a trip, in typical Yankee tourist fashion,-six days to 'do' the country. As you shall see, we 'did'. Roy, my companion, tl call him Roy chiefly because that was his real namej was a breezy XYestern lad from the Railway Corps. After vainly trying to coax a few other of the boys to come with us, we set off alone, took the night boat from Glasgow, and landed in Belfast long before breakfast the next morn- VOX LYCEI 53 ing. XYe must have stayed in Belfast all of two hours, and then decided to 'do' Dublin in the afternoon. We 'did'. lVe spent the afternoon and such part of the night as we foolishly did not give over to sleep in that delightful spot. and then went to Cork early next morning. The town we did' in the record time of three-quarters of an hour, kissed the Blarnev stone two hours later, and went on to Killarney that evening in order to 'do' the lakes the next dav. Wie got in about dusk. Finding the dining-room at the hotel closed, we hied up town to find the wherewithal to replenish the inner man. Going past one humble spot-they all looked humble enough-we espied a red-headed girl apparently in charge. Roy's great weakness, among others too numerous to mention, was tor is it 'were', Mr. Mann?l lasses with Titian locks. So we forth- with entered. Pause now. a la Henty. for some contemporary history. XYe were in the heart of the Sinn Fein country. The Easter rebellion was but three vears back, and the country was seething with the discontent that afterwards! broke out into open hostilities. There had been no conscription in the country. It was filled with young men who, we had noticed with sad regret, paid scant respect to two august Canadian oflicers of the sublime rank of Lieutenant: in fact thev were inclined to scoff at us. Some of the later bickering with the police had already begun, and there was at that very time martial law in Limrick. which was, T suppose. about fifty or seventy-five miles away. But back to our muttonsl Enticed by the appearance of the auburn- tressed damsel, we entered the tea-FOOIU, or whatever it was. But immediately we had wished we hadn't: for it seemed to us that the entire male population of Killarney was in the background, and they seemed to have forgotten to put out the mat with 'illelcome' on it. I don't suppose there were more than ten of them altogether, but even that seemed about eleven too many. However, Roy had a Military Cross, and I am not built for speed, so we kept our dignity.-and our seats. It didn't increase our feelings of ease to any noticeable extent to hear numerous mutterings behind our backs, particularly after we had made gestures of friendship, which were turned down cold. And then. all but two went out. That didnlt help either. NVe wished they had stayed where we could keep our eye on them. However, we finished our refreshments. and finally engaged the younger of the two remaining Irishmen in conversation. By this time we had taken off our overcoats: and the 'Canada' badges on our tunics-there were none on our top-coats-lent an entirely different aspect to the affair. Before. we were merely British Officers, loathed and hated: now we were brothers in arms, sufferers under the cruel heel of Britain. It transpired that Mick, the younger Irishman, was the 'swateheart' of the fair ludv whose amber locks had brought us in. The other chap, who possessed a walrus moustache and whose name I forget, had some similar interest in the proprietress, a rather angular lady of uncertain age. Then there was a dark- haired little flapper of possibly sixteen, and apparently unattached, whom we for obvious reasons christened 'The Map of Trelandf Tempus fugitted. There was some sort of curfew law in the town and the shop windows had to be closed: but by this time we had established an entente cordiale all round, and we were invited to a rather dingy back room, where more eatables and drinkables were produced. Somehow or other we got to singing, softly, lest the police get inquisitive: and after we had got rid of a few Canadian airs, Mick took up the burden. He had a fine untrained tenor voice, and he crooned away at some of the old mournful Irish tolk songs. Then he .went on to a few songs of the rebellion and of these later times. the first of which is C Libl'?-'VY CJ. nw lghiixrsissrr-girOS'LfQSt 0 I Business Training VVILL INCREASE YOUR CHANCES for SUCCESS HE object of all education 1 is the development of the l individual to the point where he leads the largest, full- est, and happiest life.

The title is f'lYhack fol la diddle , which means absolutely nothing at all: it is just like the 'fol de rol rol' of some of our own songs. There were about five verses. all containing the most exaggerated sentiments of loyalty toward Englandg but one was supposed to see that the singer meant the exact opposite of what he said. The first verse and the chorus ran:- XVc'll sing you a song of a land we love. Oh, God bless England! is our prayer. xvimr fs! la diddle lol la ai do day. Whack fol la diddle 101 121 di do dar.

Of course Mick sang several other songs of a similar natureg but this, both words and music, particularly struck my fancy. and I asked where I could get a copy of it. So the next day before we went to see the lakes, -ludy met me and escorted me down to a store where with a great deal of Hush Hush , I was able to secure a copy of this and a couple of other songs, along with a few Sinn Fein souvenirs, all of which were very much forbidden at that time. There is very little more to tell. affecting this part of the story. XVe had another similar party next night in the same place, but on neither night would Mick let us go to our hotel alone, as there had already been some trouble in the neighbourhood, and Mick was a bit afraid of what some of his compatriots, not knowing our kind and noble hearts. might do to us. And the little Map of Ireland undertook to embroider us a couple of Sinn Fein flags to send to us in Scotland for souvenirs, but she got into some sort of mix-up with the police over her patriotic activities: and when her room was searched, the flags were found and confiscated, So we didn't get them. As to the words of the song, as they are known to the students of the O.C.I., I plead guilty to perpetrating them. But I also plead as excuse that they were written in a big hurry, for reasons which shall appear. In the spring of 1927. the Lyceum was at a loss to know how to conclude its season: so some of the staff suggested a teachers' program. At that time we had on the staff four or live who could land wouldl put on anumber each, besides a body of whole-souled choristers who agreed to form a chorus. VVe had to have music right smartly, and I put the words you know to the old tune in a big hurry for fear the chorus would back out. A Incidentally this meeting of the Lyceum was a startling success. Some of us rather feared the outcome. It was just possible that we might be the reci- pients of some unwanted coppers tossed at us by the unsatisfied cash customers -a thing not entirely unknown in the annals of the 0.C.I. However we seemed to capture the hearts of the audience right away by taking a high F in the chorus of the hrst song. XX'e intended this as a serious effort but the audience took it as a joke. which is perhaps just as well. Anyhow, everything else that we did that afternoon was regarded as high humor. Four or five of the staff contributed stunts, all the way from playing the piano handcuffed to delivering foolish monologues: and the program was brought to a conclusion by the initial singing of 'AUp with the Colours of the O.C.I. , after Miss Muir had explained and fervently blessed it. ' Some time later, Mr. Bearder provided an orchestration and put it in your morning repertoire beside Mother Machreen and A Song of Canadaf' XV. D. T.

However, speaking frankly. the Short Story competition met with a rather poor response, especially from the ripper forms. The advancement of literary work is the chief aim of our Vox l.vcei, which has long held a leading place among school periodicals. In many cases our contemporaries have even used it as a pattern for their own maga- zines. Is Lisgar to lose this honour, this prestige? Fortunately, the few short stories that were submitted were good ones. Miss Beatrice Orkin, IYA. was awarded first prize for her very unusual and humorous story, entitled. 'Stand and Deliver! tljleaself Second prize went to David Petegorslqy, IIID, for his story entitled. 'Carson's Queer Revenge' The Poetry Department met with a much better response. In this section Miss Sydney Harris, IIID, won tirst place for a very beautiful poem, 'Regretf which sounds a note of deep sorrow. wlohn Kettles. also of IIID, was awarded second prize for his fine descriptive poem entitled fThe IYaterfall.' The French essays submitted were also of high calibre. First place was won by F. .-X. Zuana, IYI3. for his contribution entitled. 'La Musique' while second prize went to A. H. Crowson, IY,-X. for his essay on that topic so familiar to Lisgar students, L'Esprit de Corps.' The high standard of Lisgar's Art Department was ably maintained by our capable and hard-worlcing art staff. composed of E. lleahen. Illi, and rl. l-larber, IVB. Due to their efforts we were able to make quite a number of suitable changes. We have already referred to the Vox Cover Competition in our Editorial. In this competition Miss M. liecltwith. IIIE, was awarded the premier prize of 551500. The prize for the best page of cartoons was won by E. lieahen. IIF, for his contribution. In connection with these Literary Competitions, we are very grateful to the following two committees of teachers, Messrs. D. A. Gilchrist, BA., H. C. Mann, HA., and I. Dunlop, B.A., for judging the short stories and poems, and to Miss I. Muir. M.A., Miss M. Shaver, and Mr. L. Lalande, HA., for selecting the winning French essays. To these members of the staff the Vox extends its heartfelt thanks for the capable and willing manner in which they co-operated with us in making this department for our magazine a success. e XV. F.

Two Gentlemen of Verona, My starveling bull Ah, woe is me! ln pasture full How lean is he! Thus chanted Paul, French and poet tself-styledib wagging a mocking linger at Andre, the well-to-do but meagre host of Le Petit Cochon Nou. It was the crowning insult of a long chain of the like offences extending throughout the whole winter, during which Paul, Rudolf of talents musical whose native land was Brunswick, and Anthony. a hopeful artist of English extraction, had lived on his reluctant bounty. Not even the contemplation of their unpaid bills. which Rudolf had considered worthy of setting to music, could have raised his fury to so high a pitch. This particular quotation of Paul's had always caused his rage to simmer, and this morning it boiled over at last. lVith an inarti- culately profane exclamation he reached for the poker: several waiters came to his assistance and the next moment the three friends were rushing into the street, their personal effects propelled by the muscular efforts of Andre and his athletic garcons du cafe, whizzing past their ears. A battered portmanteau, catching Paul between the shoulders, caused him to utter an agonized yelp. A huge roll of music manuscript flew by. and An- thony cried out, There goes your opera, Rudy l And Rudy, without slackening his speed, replied, No matter. I dedicate it to art. But a pair of trousers, hurrying by as though imbued with life, drew quite a different song from the painter, who with a startled cry, disappeared around the corner in frantic pursuit. They came together again in the park, where they sprawled, panting on thc grass, and took stock of the situation. lt was all my fault . said Paul remorsefully, but that brute Andre ought not to cook so spare in the midst of all that lovely food ...... Food , he added wisfully. Ah, food! He was silent awhile, only murmuring to himself at intervals. Food ..... food. XVell what are we to do now? snapped Anthony impatiently. l'm starved and you don't get us anywhere talking like a pastry-cook ! The trousers had coyly eluded him and the rag-tag artist was not a little nettled. Paul, thus recalled to earth, suggested poisoning Andre but Rudy dismissed this Utopian dream as too impracticable. Finally, Anthony, disgusted with their futile argument, turned on what would have been a heel in a less ancient pair of shoes, remarking sarcastically, XYhy not rob a carriage l To his amazement Paul began dancing for joy, exclaiming. You have hit it, mon ami l V And even Rudy, ever meek and non-committal, admitted that the idea had possibilities.

For lack of more formidable weapons, Anthony fashioned them muskets and rapiers from broomsticks purloined en route.

Rudy, being the most agile, was on sentry duty in a tree. The artist, below, began to grumble that he was still hungry. Your wonderful project , he growled to Paul, not hlling our stomachs yet. Be patient , urged the poet. llc shall have money ..... . At which point, Rudy, crying out that a carriage was approaching, promptly fell out of the tree. However, as his friends were directly below him, he landed on them, breaking his fall and very nearly their necks. Get ready! cried Anthony nervously. when the natural confusion was over. They moved forward. gripping their broomstick weapons gallantly. and waited. Thus it was that Etienne Charles Henri Leonard de La Pre d'Or, fifth Comte de la Montaigne, driving Parisward with Jeanne. his bride. after a wedding-journey in Normandy. was suddenly confronted by three pallid youths in amazingly patched garments, clutching at muskets with sweating fingers, and evidently suffering from an ague which seemed to have affected only their knees. Stand and deliver! cried Paul. unconvincingly. Your money or your lives ! Anthony's voice cracked, giving it an almost pleading note. Rudy appeared to be working himself up. Finally. in a terrible voice, which sought to cover his quaking heart. he thundered. Potzblitzmillionendonnerwetter l l After this there seemed no more to be said on the subject. It remained with the Count's attendants, who numbered a coachman and two footmen, to make the first move. They made it. They Hed summarily, the coachman alone pausing to fire a solitary shot at the highwaymen, Fortunately. as according to his custom he turned away his head and closed his eyes at the moment of firing. The ball passed through the window of the carriage at right angles to the direction in which it was fired and did no more harm than to sting a donkey in a field nearby. The rest of this scene must be pictured as punctuated by the resentful braying of the astonished beast. Then Paul, slighly emboldened by this unexpected success, called loudly. Come out of the carriage, or you are dead men. The Count and the bride, the former poker-stiff with rage descended into the dust of the road. At sight of the latter, the eyes of the three friends bulged. The mere tracing of ink on paper cannot hope to describe her charm, her grace, her utterly devastating loveliness. Suffice it to say. that the only impulse of the gallant fbut hungryj trio was to crawl into the ditch and pull it in after them. There wa-s a long silence, during which the donkey emitted a few hollow moans. Then Rudy, realizing that someone had to begin, gave Anthony a sug- gestive shove. The artist was hurled against Paul, whose mock weapon flew from his hand, while he himself was precipitated into the dust at the feet of the Countess. After that pandemonium reigned for at least ten minutes, during which the Count told them just exactly what he thought of them, and Paul, recognizing the advantages of his location, told the amused Countess his tale of woe. 58 VOX LYCEI XYhen a comparative silence was restored-Qcomparative, I say, for the donkey was still airing his grievanceb,-the Countess observed cheerfully. I must say, Etienne. that you have a very poor taste in desperadoes. Let us take these villians home and feed them, They may prove interesting. Really, Jeanne , the Count was annoyed but had no desire to ruftie the feelings of his bride, you do pick up the most impossible people. No , as she started to speak. I will not hear another word. As for you , he turned on the three menacingly, you scoundrels, I will see that you are soundly beaten. The highwaymen gave themselves up for lost, and their knees knocked to- gether like castanets. But the Countess was a woman of resource. Really, Etienne . she said reproachfully, you are rather horrid, parti- cularly as our servants have resigned. That , replied the Count, thoughtfully , is another thing. If you will take care of our carriage you will escape punishment this time. But , he added grimly, I will make sure that you do not attempt to cut our throats on the way home. The Countess winked quite distinctly at the three friends with the eye remote from her husband, and. acting on a common impulse, they flung them- selves yapping at her feet. IYhen the eloquence of their gratitude was some- what abated they leaped onto the carriage, Anthony on the coachman's box, and Paul and Rudy behind. They moved off at a brisk pace. lVhen they had disappeared from sight. there peeped out from the prickly hedge which ran along the ditch, the mud-spattered faces, pale to the nose-tips. of the Count's late retinue. The donkey, not seeing them and therefore assuming that he had lost his audience, ceased his lamentations and lay down to rest. IIE.-XTRICE QRKIN, IVA. , Carson s ueer Revenge A letter for you, sir , said Sorrel the school postmaster. handing Simmons a dainty pink envelope. XVhat on earth is this? No stamp or anything. Some stupid joke I sup- pose. Have you got one, Carson? he asked his room-mate. No, I haven't. but don't you think you'd like to know what's in it P sug- gested Carson who was rather curious to know the contents of the letter. Simmons tore open the envelope. Inside there was written a note on pink paper. Simmons read it aloud. Messrs Firth, Parson and Price request the honour of your company at a supper to be given in studies IJ, E, X F, on Thursday evening at eight o'cIock. The invitation had evidently been compiled from an At Home card. The boys had introduced Chicken and Beans , in one corner in place of Music and Dancing. In the other corner were the mystic letters, 'R.S.V.P.'. Oh boy! study supper! But' how is it you aren't going Carson? I always thought you and Firth great chums , asked Simmons. Yes, we were. And I was in good with Price also. Can't see why they haven't asked me , said Carson mournfully. f'XVe're going to have some time , remarked Simmons. Chicken and beans, nothing I like better. And what's 'R.S.V.P.'? VOX LYCEI 59 That's a good one , laughed Carson. I bet you thought that it was somthing good to eat. lt means 'Reply si vous play'. That day ,the study supper was the talk of the school. Going to the supper, Carson? he would be asked time and time again. No, I don't think so , was usually Carson's reply uttered in lordly manner. XVhy, you've been asked, haven't you? would naturally be the next ques- tion, the boys not understanding how anybody could refuse such an attractive invitation. Then Carson would have to make the humiliating confession that he had not even been asked. When boys on far less intimate terms with the givers of the supper expressed their intention of having 'a jolly good time', Carson's blood rose to the boiling point. 'Revenge is sweet'-and he determined that the trio of hosts should feel the full weight of his anger. lt is easier to determine than to do. But at last, he devised a plan by means of which not only enter- tainers but also entertained would suffer. His first act was to procure a large medicine bottle. Concealing this under his coat, he stealthily made his way to the inhrmary immediately after dinner when he knew Mrs. Simmers would be dining. Mrs. Simmers was the 'needle woman' of the school but also acted as 'medicine man'. She kept her doses and cures in a cabinet in the infirmary. The door creaked noisily as Carson entered the room. From the cabinet he took out several bottles, the contents of which he knew had an exceedingly vile taste. He poured a little from each into the bottle which he carried. XYhile doing this he was musing. XVhat should he say if he were caught extracting some of the contents of the cupboard? The sweet tooth with which most boys are blessed might prove suflicient excuse for purloining jam, but who would think that any boy would steal medicine for the mere pleasure of taking it? XYhen he had finished obtaining the desired mix- ture, he retraced his steps just in time to avoid Mrs. Simmers. So far so good-or so bad. Carson felt very uncomfortable and very guilty and almost decided to give up his plan . But as he was walking through the schoolroom on the way to his desk, he encountered Firth, formerly his great- est companion. XVith a refinement of cruelty, as Carson thought, Firth greeted him as if nothing had happened to mar their friendship. Carson's temper once more arose. He thirsted more than ever for revenge, and a minute later behind his desk, he gloated over the smell, as he thought of the punishment in store for the hosts and their guests. Carson spent most of his time that evening shaking the bottle and found to his satisfaction and intense delight that the compound became nastier and nastier, as the ingredients were mixed together. Next morning when he came downstairs, his first act was to apply the cork to his tongue. The taste almost made him ill. He flattered himself that no more odious mixture had ever been brewed. The opportunity for the completion of his design came after school in the afternoon. So great was the interest in the supper that every detail of the preparations leaked out. At last, Carson received the welcome news that Firth and his colleagues were cooking the provisions in the studies. Carson took up his station at the foot of the study staircase. with the medicine bottle next to his beating heart, and awaited developments. Up above, he could hear the preparations for the feast busily going on. Every burst of laughter, every rattle of the tin saucepans made him clutch the bottle more tightly and swear revenge more deeply, Finally, it was evident that the chickens, beans and other dainties were safely deposited on the fires in the 430 VOX LYCEI studies. The three cooks descended the stairs to get a little fresh air. As soon as he was free from observation, he darted up the staircase into the first study. It was his intention to visit all three. But he had no sooner entered Price's room, than he heard footsteps ascending the stairs. There was not a moment to lose. He poured a quantity of his mixture into a pot on the fire, and without even glancing at its contents turned to tlee hiding the bottle under his coat, as he ran. On the threshold he ran into Firth and thought he was caught red- handed. Looking for me. old chap? asked Firth calmly before Carson could make up an excuse. I was expecting a visit from you. XYhy didn't you accept the invitation before? XYl1y , stammered Carson, I wasn't sent an invitationu. Didnt we? How awfully stupid! XYell, you're coming now .... not a word. You must come. Terry. we made such an absurd mistake. Firth would take no denial, so at eight o'clock, Carson, the most miserable boy in creation put in an appearance with fifteen other jubilant companions at the studies. A more magnificent spread was never provided anywhere. There were chickens, ham jellies, beans, pickles-and what notl The other boys fell to recklessly, but Carson not knowing the contents of the pot into which he had poured his compound, refused all boiled food, pleading a bilious attack, but gorged himself with ham, pickles and cheese. All through the feast, the fear of discovery was hanging over his head like the great sword of Damocles. Suddenly a terrible thought presented itself. XVhat if the ingredients, harmless in themselves, were to form when combined a deadly poison and make him a wholesale murderer! To his intense and unutterable relief, the supper passed off without anybody dropping from his seat as he had expected. As the supper was about to break up, Parson said: Boys, I've discovered something new. It was trying our chemistry ex- periment with ammonia. After I boiled it, it had a much different odour from which it had ever had. I'm going to be famous. l'll be known as bl. L. Parson, the man who-hm-hm-discovered ..... Here a pillow thrown in his face by Price cut him short. The ,boys departed. As Carson was about to leave, Price said to him. Awfully sorry about the invitation, old man. How did you enjoy yourself? I enjoyed myself immensely , stammered Carson, which we may add, was a slight perversion of the truth. - D. XY. Petergorsky-sIllD.

But ah! beside thy power is beauty found- The pretty rainbow in thy spray Doth vie, perhaps surpass the warmest tints That learned artists can display. The Hery sun reclines in the distant west, The falls no longer glitter bright- And in that fleeting pause 'tween day and night In Nature's beauty they are dress'd.' The falls reflect still richer colours now, The colour deepens orange to red- And darker grows, as sinks behind a cloud, The setting sung then lo! 'tis night.

KETTLES-HID. 62 VOX LYCEI La Musique Parmi tous les arts qui forment notre heritage des temps anciens, il y en a un qui surpasse tous les autres at cause du plaisir qu'il procure,-celui-ci est la musique. Depuis des centaines d'annees, que dis-je. depuis les premiers siecles de la civilisation la musique occupe beaucoup du temps de l'liomme. Aujourd'liui elle tient une place dans notre vie egale at toute autre torme d'amusement. Le theatre, la salle de danse et tous les endroits publics ou l'on trouve des amuse- ments, sont egalement agrementes de quelque sorte de musique. Meme les eglises de nos jours ne sont pas completes sans l'orgue. Voici un temoignage qui prouve la necessite de la musique: sans -elle les vues svnclironisees ne pour- raient exister. I-e progres de la musique des son debut se clivise en trois periodes: la premiere ou fut introduit l'instrument du genre du tambourg la cleuxieme, celle de lintroduction de la Hute: et la troisieme. celle ou la premiere lyre fut connue. Le tambour, le premier instrument musical qui parut sur la terre fut graduelle- ment perfectionne et enlin fut suivi des instruments de percussion de nos jours, -les cvmbales, les castagnettes. les tambourins, etc. La flute, a son tour, fut suivie cle nombreux instruments it vent--les cors, les cornets at pistons, les trompettes, les clairons, les clarinettes et d'autres. Puis on arrive a l'instrument at cordes, la lvre, qui, croit-on, eut son origine en Egvpte. Apres celle-ci, la liarpe, la guitare, le violon, etc., devinrent bientot connus. Cependant cliaque instrument musical peut etre retrace 51 une de ces trois origines. Le tambour fut employe par les sauvages pour accompagner leurs danses. D'ailleurs, dans toutes leurs ceremonies religieuses il leur fallait le tambour. De plus, les sauvages croyaient que le tambour leur donnait la victoire dans les combats. l.es cors et les trompettes furent employes en guerre par les sauvages des temps modernes. Ces instruments faisaient un bruit si etourdissant et si eltravant que leurs ennemis se sauvaient en desordre. Mais ils emploverent aussi ces instruments pour donner le signal d'un assaut et le rendre plus formidable. D'autres sauvages croyaient aussi que les clairons dispersaient les mauvais esprits, Enfin on voit que l'origine du tambour et de la trompette est reculee. Mais telle n'est pas l'origine de la flute. Cest l'amour. L'l1istoire nous dit que les sauvages de l'Amerique du Nord se servaient de la Hute pour courtiser. Ceci nous indique que la flute a toujours ete bien delicate. ljliistoire nous raconte aussi que la lyre etait l'instrument des menestrels, et qu'ils en jouaient comme accompagnement ou comme prelude a leurs cliansons. Ce n'est qu'apres des annees de travail et beaucoup de progres accomplis qu'on a pu produire des instruments musicaux comme on en a maintenant, mais ils sont toujours construits sur le meme principe. De nos jours ces Vieux in- struments ainsi que les nouveaux ont un but bien different, car ils sont employes par des musiciens artistes, et non pas pour effrayer le monde mais pour le clivertir. Des fanfares et de grands orcliestres nous font de la musique Cquelque- foisj. mais nous ignorons comment ces instruments ont are inventes. Quoiqu'il en soit, nous sommes trop interesses a la musique pour que nous puissions nous en passer. Il y eut un temps ou elle fut bien appreciee en Europe: elle l'est encore mais cette appreciation est plus grande en Amerique. Enlin on peut ajouter que le gout du peuple actuel pour la musique promet at cet art une longue vie sur ce continent. F. A. Zuana. IVB. VOX LYCEI 63 I Esprit cle Corps Lyesprit de corps commun aux etudiants est quelque chose dyintarigible, quelque chose de sensible mais diflicile ei expliquer. Cependant, dans la vie de tout etudiant, l'esprit de corps doit etre un des elements les plus importants. Il est absolument necessaire fi la formation complete de son intelligence et de son caractere. Que dire de l'esprit de corps dans les sports? Il est vrai qu'un chacun peut avoir des gouts ou des aptitudes marques pour tel ou tel sport, mais le succes d'un groupe sportif depend de la cooperation de cliacun de ses membres et de tous les etudiants en general. S'ensuit-il de cela que les etoiles soient negligees? Pas le moins du monde. Mais l'esprit de corps ne signifie pas seulement un soutien support sportif, mais aussi et principalement un aide qu'il apporte dans les etudes ou l'eleve accumule lenergie necessaire pour faire face aux problemes futurs de la vie. Il est donc de toute uecessite pour un eleve qui veut reussir d'etre impregne de cet esprit de corps. Mais son ambition dans les etudes, stimulee par l'esprit de corps, peut prendre deux formes. Elle peut etre egoiste en ce sens qu'il desire arriver at tout prix sans avoir egard aux moyens employes. Elle peut etre noble en ce sens qu'il a ei coeur de faire briller dans toute sa splendeur et augmenter meme la reputation de son ecole et de ses professeurs en devenant un eleve modele dans toutes ses activites, soit intellectuelles soit sportives, Cette derniere ambition est la seule desirable et l'eleve imbu de cette am- bition est certain de reussir dans la vie. Notre cher vieux Lisgar est rempli de traditions, de souvenirs. de coutumes. Nest-ce donc pas notre devoir a nous de les maintenir toujours et comment le faire? Eb bien! En cultivant cet esprit de corps cliez nous tous: quel en sera le resultat. Notre clier Collegiate prendra de l'expansion, il s'affirmera par les liommes et les femmes qu'il forme, il oc- cupera comme par le passe et avec plus d'lionneur peut-etre, une place enviable dans le domaine scientifique, politique, industriel, commercial et litteraire.

The phrase Circumstances over which I have no control. was used by XVelling- ton in a letter concerning some affairs in which his son was mixed up and with which he declined to interfere.

Teams in rugby, hockey and basketball. although not having much to boast of in the way of championships, showed Ottawa the way regarding good sportsmanship and fighting spirit. The selling of Athletic Tickets has been one of the few disappointments up to date. The fact that a membership in the Athletic Association helps to provide the necessary funds to maintain all athletic teams and also to buy crests for members of interscholastic as well as interform teams. seemed not to effect some of the boys. We hope. however, that they will soon change their attitude and help support our Athletic Association. Interform sports. in rugby. basketball and hockey have been successfully concluded, and with spring comes the thought of softball, which will hegin as soon as it is dry outdoors. For Lisgar to have winning teams, necessitates good material and the whole- hearted support of the entire student body. We all know that the material is not lacking, but we do know, that we are not getting the support we should get. Lack of enthusiasm shown by the student body is Lisgar's present Obtstacle. Let us hope that next year this obstacle will be overcome when our teams go out to battle for the old school. R. FISHER-IV-B. 23 5 3 O 5 E GJ 'P S f fi O tm mm O .i !

VOX LYCEI 69 Senior Rugby The Senior lnterscholastic Rugby league, composed of teams from Glebe Collegiate, Ottawa College, Lisgar Collegiate and Nepean High School. has ended for the l9Z9 season. These teams showed exceptional rugby ability in the many close and interesting games that were played. The Glebe Collegiate team however was superior to those of the other three schools and finished its schedule without meeting a reverse. The remaining teams hnished in the order mentioned above. Although Lisgar Finished third it gave the leaders a hard Fight before succumbing to them. Indeed, if Lisgar players had turned out more consis- tently to practise, Lisgar possibly would have been higher in the standing. lt has been rumoured that if the players ot next year's Lisgar senior rugby team do not practise more steadily and conscientously than was the case this year. there will be no team representing the blue and grey in the league. The members of this years team have seen their folly and hope that the next team to represent Lisgar will take the hint and benefit accordingly. The team was composed of many individual stars, the most prominent of whom was -lohnny Edwards, the captain and quarter-back. The backneld was ably looked after by Alf Gratton, Ken Baird, -lerry Slattery and ,lohn Currie. Constituting the secondary defense, Lisgar had Fisher, Henderson and Carroll. The line, although not a heavy one, was composed of tireless workers such as Murray. I-lerman, Campbell, Way, Bertrand. Grundy. Blaginnes. Wallace. Worden. Crawdron, Brash and Laughton. tl. F.

Unfortunately, they did not. In the league. comprised of Glebe. Lisgar, High School of Commerce, and Ottawa College, they succeeded in winning half their games, and were tied for second position, when an awkward situation developed with the result that no cham- pions were declared. This year's team, certainly, did not possess the same ability as the cham- pionship squad of '28, but the main difference. and the one to which the lack of success may be attributed, was the indifference towards practice. The fellows did not turn out early enough in the season, and when they did begin. practices were very irregular. They failed to realize. evidently, that it is only by constant drill in fundamentals that latent football ability may be developed. Players on this years team were Kettles. Donaldson, MacDougall, Crab- tree, Clauson, Davidson, Jack. 1. Zelikovitz, J. Zelikovitz. Larocque. Sheppard, Abramson, Hough. Dunne. Forbes. Meehan, MacCallum, Brown. Smyth, VVallace, Swerdfager.

TERFORM SPURTS Rugby A very successful schedule of Interform Rugby was played this fall, more than two hundred and fifty boys playing fn twenty-two games. The Upper School Team represented lVth and Vth forms captured the cham- pionship of the school in a sudden death games with IIB. champions of the Lower School, which ended with a score of ll-O. XYhile the whole team played well under the able coaching of Bedford-Jones, special mention should be made of XV. Ade in the backlield, Bickerton at quarter-back and Hudson at flying wing. The First Form Championship was won by 1DC who lost the Lower School title to IIB in a great game ending 17-6. IA showed their superiority over the other teams to win the First Form Junior Championship. All the games were marked by an enthusiasm and good sportsmanship that promises well for future Interscholastic teams. Mr. Drulard is to be congratu- lated on the way he arranged the schedule and in securing good referees for the games. R. Fisher-TVB.

As each played the other twice, a long schedule resulted, and over one hundred and eighty games were played. So keen was the completition, that at the end of the regular season it was necessary for four teams to play off for the school championship. Two teams, IF and HB, in the Lower School were tied for first place and in the Upper School a tie also resulted between Yth and IYAC, making necessarv a series between these teams in order to see which two would plav off for the school championship. ' In each case a sudden death game was played and as a result ll: and Yth were the hnalists. In this final game. one of the most outstanding upsets in the history of interform sports took place, IF defeating the lfpper 'School Cham- pions by a score of ll to 9, and thus winning the school championship. R. F,-IVR. Hockey Interform hockey had a very successful season at Lisgar this year. Eighteen 'teams were entered, and each played the others once, totalling over eighty games. XVhen the regular schedule was over, eight teams were far ahead of the others, and a special series was arranged for the school championship. The Upper School teams representing Vth, IV-D, Ill-A, lll-li, played off and Vth finally won the Upper School championship. ln the Lower School, ll-H won the championship by defeating teams representing I-A, I-D, and I-F. The Championship of the school was then decided when Vth played Il-B the final game of the season, Il-B winning by a score of 2-O. The committee in charge is to be congratulated for the interest they took in the league, obtaining the Auditorium for these final games. This feature made the league much more successful, and in future years it is hoped that this rink will again be procured for the interform teams. R. F.-IV-B. Baseball At the commencement of the 1929 baseball season, a question was raised as to whether the existing hardball league should be disbanded in favour of a softball league.. In a vote taken the latter type of baseball was chosen, to the regret of most of the older boys. Nevertheless, the competition amongst the various forms was just as keen as formerly. The first form championship was won by I-A who lost the lower school honour to the strong II-B team. The Upper School championship was more closely contested and only after five games had been played HI-B were declared winners over IV-D-IH-E. ln the subsequent playoff H-B were successful over the HI-B team. An innovation in school sport was created in that the teachers of the school chose a team to play an all-star school team. In the first of a two game series, the teachers surprised the students and won handily. However, the students turned the tables in the second game thus deadlocking the series. It is hoped by the boys that this competition will be taken up where it was left off last year as they would like to play the teachers again. G. F. H.-Vth.

The series of two games was plaved in the early days of March, judging by the large crowd which attended both games, more interest was taken in the leagues games than has hitherto been the case. Qnly after a hard and gruelling struggle did the Lisgar boys concede vic- tory to the Glebe team. The Lisgar team consisted of Gordon Henderson, Swede Bertrand, Johnny Edwards. Bud Fisher, Hugh XYay, Ralph black, Harry Grundy, Bob Laughton, Lenny Brown, and Hank Smyth. H. 'XX ., X th. , funior lntersclzolastic Basketball This year Lisgar, unfortunately, was unsuccessful in defending' its 'lunior E. O. S. S. A. Basketball title. However, we have nothing to be ashamed of, as Mr. Drulard was forced to place on the floor a new and inexperienced team, all of last year's champions being advanced to senior ranks. In spite of the fact that Glebe had a heavier and more experienced team, Lisgar put up a line game. It was not until the last minute or so that Glebe was certain of winning. The members of the Lisgar team were :- Corrigan, Laughton, Macdonald, the Zellies', Hector and Horatius Ben- wick, Kuntz, Checkland and Garton. D. J. D.-IVD. funior Basketball- City League Considering the lack of interest among the senior boys, and the line teams which competed in the City League, Lisgar did very well in junior Basketball this year. At the first of the season it was seen that the teams representing Britannias and Princess Louise Dragoon Guards would finish far ahead of the others, and an interesting struggle took place between the remaining three teams. Close games with Glebe and Diamonds were played, and at the time of this writing, Glebe is in third place with Lisgar fourth and Diamonds last. Although outclassed by Brits and P.L.D.G., the boys were found fighting in every game, and gave a good account of themselves. Those representing Lisgar were :- Forwards: Grundy, Clauson, Carroll, Baird, Daze and Fisher. 1 Guards: VV:-ly, Laughton, Rourke, MacManus and Barber. R. F.

Sv rd Edwa J. gg vox LYCEI -N 7Z fuvenile Basketball Une of l.isgar's last hopes for a basketball championship this year falls on the shoulders of the Lisgar juveniles. Mr. Drulard has turned out one of the best teams that has represented the school in the last five years. At the time of writing, they have succeeded in gaining a play-off position in their league. and, for their opponents, they will have no other than their old rivals, the Glebe. The Lisgar 'luveniles are built up around their scoring ace, Henri Bertrand. Swede , as he is known around the corridors of the O. C. I., is rated as one of the best centre players that has ever performed in this district. His Hoor play is the feature of every Juvenile game, and his pivoting, dribbling and pass- ing are unexcelled. The forwards are -lohn Edwards, Ralph .lack and Leonard Brown. Johnnie and Ralph are about the two hardest workers on the team, and in Lennie Brown they have an able aid. The backbone of the defence is tiorilie Henderson, whose generalship has been like tonic to his team-mates. XYhen the crisis of a game arises, it is generally Gordie who starts the team on their rally to victory. He is ably assisted on defence by Dune Davidson and Charles Hank Smyth. Hank , although lacking in poundage, makes up for it by his aggressive and steady style of play. :Xlthough Dune is not so fast as the other defencemen, his blocking and shooting are usually a menace to the opposing team. C. B. T. M., IIIB. flfliclget Basketball This year two midget teams were formed, the Midget Pls and the Mid- get Ones The HA team was outclassed in the league due to inexperienceg however they tried hard at all times. For this team S. Kydd played centre, supported on the wings by H, Ritchie, H. Kuntz, C. Donaldson and F. Corrigan. The guard duties were shared between H. Garton, E. MacDonald and Murray. The Une team fared better, finishing third in the league and only losing a playoff berth to Glebe in the last game. R. Benwick, and bl. Horwitz played centre with I. Zelikovitz, bl. Zelikovitz, j. Lewis and I. Cornblat on the wings. D. Molot, D. Benwick, M, Abramson and A. Katz played guard. F. CorriganfIVB. Bantam Basketball The Bantam League this season was a good one. A new member, the High School of Commerce, was added to its ranks. The call for aspirants for Lisgar's 1930 Bantam team brought out many new players, and consequently, their somewhat faulty showing may be attributed to their youth and lack. of experience. Nevertheless, they deserve due credit for trying to the last whistle. Indeed, Mr. Drulard was well satisfied with their play. The personnel of the team was as follows :- Forwards :-Caven fqcaptainj, Checkland, Mcllfeekin, Lieif. Cohen and Wliseman. Guards :-McMorran. Leikin, McDougal and Schieman. G. D. IIB. 7R TEAMS l.L.

Much new material has been developed and before long the school will, no doubt, be represented by a team which will not only compete, but also win, Last Hay, I.isgar was represented by a team of twenty in Montreal. at the McGill Track Meet. Here its members made a verv creditable showing, de- feating some of the fastest sprinters from both Ontario and Quebec. Next the annual Indoor Track Meet came along last April, and here our boys again demonstrated their ability. In this meet they were not only success- ful in winning the Senior Relay but also carried off first place in the Senior Sprints. In this connection special mention is due Hugh XYay for his line showing. Again in September a team of twenty-live was sent to Renfrew to compete in the E. O. S. S. A. Meet. As some of the members of last year's team had graduated, Mr. Drulard was forced to recruit new members, many of whom had never taken part in track and Field competition before. Considering this handi- cap, Lisgar did very well indeed. S. G. SLATTICRY-IIIB. Boys , Tennis During the months of September and October. the boys' annual tennis tournament was run off with a fair amount of success. I say with a fair amount of success, for the lack of school courts prevented many players from partici- pating, and this rather detracted from the spirit of competition which is sup- posed to characterize a School Tournament. It is very regrettable that we can not have a school tournament played wholly on school courts. Indeed the running off of the tournament this year was made possible only through the generosity of the Rideau Lawn Tennis Club, and especially of Mr. E. Condon, who provided courts for the tournament finals. Keen competition, though, was evident in the tournament, and out of the fifty odd entrants, the following were the winners: FORM CHAMPION RUNNER-UP 4th, 5th and School A. H. Crowson IVA D. L. Shore IVA 3rd S. Hobart IIIH XY. Snaith IIID lst and 2nd M. Meagher IIB D. Snipper IF In the interscholastic tournament play, Lisgar's team, composed of Hobart, IVay, Shore and Crowson, fared rather disasterously. In the match with our Olebe rivals, Lisgar won only one event out of four. This may be accounted for by the fact that the Glebe team had a much more coherent, smooth-working com- bination play, the result of a team trained on school courts. As this is my final year at Lisgar, let me express the sincere wish that our school may obtain new tennis courts very shortly, and that thus a team may be prepared which will regain Lisgar's lost prestige in this branch of sport.

Their stunts were quite spectacular. three of them performing the danger- ous Flyaway , the first time that this feat has been accomplished by a collegiate gym team in Ottawa.

Swimming, like most of the other sports in our school, has suffered a slump this year. The main reason for this is the inconvenient hours that are allotted to Lisgar. The first few Saturdays saw several enthusiastic mermen working hard. in the tank, to master speed and the game of water-polo. But now only one or two Lisgar pupils are seen at the Glebe pool on Saturdays. This is not very encouraging to Mr. Christie, our coach, who is trying hard to make swim- ming an active sport in Lisgar. It is quite possible that there will not be any meet this spring unless a greater interest is shown. The meet held on April 20th, 1929, was very successfully carried out under the direction of Mr. Christie, Mr. Drulard, Mr. Campbell and Mr. Fraser of Glebe before a record number of spectators. Eric Blackburn and Douglas Holmes tied for Senior Honours. R. 'lack was winner of the Intermediate Honours but there were only two contestants. No. Junior Champion was decided upon, as the only entry failed to appear. The meet closed with a water-polo match between the two rival schools. which was won by Glebe.

J The season 1929-SO was in every respect the best the Lisgar Ski Club has ever had. The Ski team won all the lnterscholastic races and an entirely new idea of having hikes up the Gatineau on every Saturday turned out a decided success. The credit for the success of these hikes was due to the untiring efforts of Mr. Blake of the teaching staff. He arranged for the busses which left the school on Saturday morning at 9.30 a.m., and when other business kept him from attending the hike in person he had an able assistant in Reid Tilley. The annual school race was held on Saturday january 25th and was won by Cyril Darch with John Edwards second and Gordon Ogilvie third, As Harold lvorden and John Currie were to be in the Ottawa Ski Club Champion- ship race the following day they acted as officials and were allotted positions on the team. The Lisgar Ski team for 1929-30 therefore was composed of, in the Southam race, 'lohn Edwards, Cyril Darch. Harold XYorden and -lohn Currie. In the Kirby Cup race where a team of five men is required these four with Gordon Ogilvie made up the team. The Lisgar Ski team proved to be a crack team annexing the Southam Trophy and the Kirby Cup. The Lisgar Collegiate won further Tnterscholastic honours when john Currie won the Cray Cup for the fastest time in the Kirby Cup race. Lisgar also came to the front in the races held by the Ottawa Ski Club, when Harold NYorclen and john Currie each won a Senior Preliminary race. Cyril Darch also won a junior Preliminary race and John Currie won the Ottawa Ski Club Championship race, Now that the Lisgar Collegiate has won back the Kirby Cup from Glebe it is to be hoped that she will produce a team next year strong enough to de- fend her laurels. 1. cum-ie, tvs. ,i,,1,,1,,1,,1,,, ,1,,,,,1,,1,,1 10101 103: izzszgfz .zezvqpvzcz -: -: :wear-'E' !

Early in the year the above executive was elected by the members of the Athletic Association. Later, the officers of the various Clubs in the Association were elected at meetings of their own. Every girl in the school, with the ex- ception of a few lateconiers, is a nieinber of this organization having paid her thirty-Five cent membership fee. Under the capable leadership of Miss Smith, the girls have had, up to date, a very successful year in every branch of Athletics. This year, instead of having the girls participate in every branch of sports. as has been the custom in former years, Miss Smith has endeavoured to have each girl center her activities on the one for which she is best suited. XVe are very grateful to the board for the showers which they have in- stalled and hope that they will keep up the good work. As the point system worked out very successfully last year it is being continued this season. At the end of the year, cups won in accordance with it, will be presented to the winners oi each group. The enthusiasm that Lisgar girls. especially those of the lower forms, are showing for every branch of athletics is exceedingly gratitying, and it is hoped that they will continue to show as great an interest in the future.

The Lisgar girls covered themselves with glory during the past season, win- ning both Junior and Senior Ottawa Interscholastic Basketball Championships. The Seniors went to Cornwall to play Morrisburg in the hrst game of the E. O. S. S. A. play-offs. Here Lisgar, after a doubtful start, staged a wonderful comeback to finish on the long end of the score. Next the team went to Renfrew to play in the semi-finals. The end of this game found the two teams tied and in the few minutes overtime the Renfrew girls managed to come out on top. However, whatever laurels the girls may have lost in basketball they won back many times by the sportsmanlike manner in which they accepted defeat. In the meantime the inter-form basketball games are being run off but, hav- ing been delayed by the concert, the Final results are unavailable for publication. M. A. L., IYD.

The volley-ball season of 1929 has been unusually successful. Customarily, the Lower School students have excelled in their enthusiasm for the game. but this year largely because of the fine weather and the additional attraction of the new outdoor courts the Lpper School snapped into it with unusual zest. The play-off between Forms III-E and Yth proved III-E to be the champions of the Upper School. In the Final game of the Lower School I-H won the victory Over II-C. VVhen III-E and I-I-I met, the enthusiasm was the keenest. I-I-I was victorious and now holds the school volley-ball championship. C.L.B.-III-C. Swimming Club Honorary Prvsidvrzt-Mr. A. G. Christie.

At this swimming meet. great enthusiasm was displayed by the girls of both the Upper and Lower Schools. The hlunior championship was won by Dixie XVaine of IID: the Intermediate by Mary Renwick of IIA, and the Senior by Norah Donnelly of Vth. The proficiency test, which was started last year, was carried out again this year with a few changes. This test has proved to be very helpful in bringing the girls out on Saturday mornings. I.
