CHARLES H. PEARSON Strathroy, Ont. How much more elder art thou than thy looks. Educated at Strathroy Collegiate Institute, he entered London Normal in 1923. At both places he formed many firm friendships and distinguished himself by his high standing, and will in time be- come one of the outstanding pedagogical masters in our fair dominion.

Graduate of Delaware Continuation School, also of Strathroy Collegiate. James is a reg ' lar feller in sports and in the social world. HOWARD SAUL Orangeville, Ont. He road much; he is a great observer; and He looks quite through the deeds of men. Howard passed his early years in the town of Mitchell, winning English scholarships, athletic championships, oratorical prizes, acting as editor for the M. H. S. paper, and reading the classics. It has been prophesied that e ' re long a professor ' s gown will grace his scholastic shoulders. CARL J. SELTZER Tavistock, Ont. We like him for his modesty, which serves but as a candle to his virtues. Tavistock regretted Seltzer ' s departure for Stratford; Stratford still misses his merry voice and helping hand. London will truly be an empty place when Carl is gone, for who could replace this cheerful comrade and helpful friend. D. B. SHAW 26 Wellington St., St. Thomas. Student, athlete, gentleman. Aye. every inch a man. This has been Bruce ' s record at the St. Thomas Collegiate as well as the Normal School.

May his future be great as his past has been glorious. J. CAMPBELL WEBSTER 46 St. Anne ' s Place, St. Thomas. 1 would that my tongue could utter the thoughts that arise in me. During his collegiate career, as in the Normal School, Danny was always prominent. Doing more than his share for the student body, taking an active part in athletics, and dispensing humor of a real sort. He was the natural choice for the editor of this Year Book. ERIC M.
