Poor Little Dog Terra is the Latin word for Hland' ' and is derived from the same root as the verb torrere, which means to be- come dry, or to heat to parching, or to scorch. Thus the earth is the dry part of the earth's surface as opposed to the sea. Terrier is a small dog that goes down into the terra into the burrows of animals, and thus the name terrier is derived from the same root as terra and torrere. Could you call a terrier a hot dog?

CRESS, Pres. The South Collegiate Parents' As- sociation has opened another year with renewed vigor and energy, and is look- ing forward to the co-operation of both parents and teachers toward a more successful year than has ever been experienced. The afternoon tea held in the Fall of last year, at which the parents of the South school's pupils were given an op- portunity to meet their children's tutors, proved such a success that it has been decided to hold just such another af- ternoon this term. The attendance of as many parents as can possibly Come will be another real boost for our organization. The presentation of medals donated by various members of the Parents' Association, Board of Education mem- bers, and other interested persons to those pupils of the school who have shown proficiency along various schol- astic lines, has become a custom at the annual meeting of the Association. Ev- ery parent member wishes those teach- ers who have so quietly and unob- trusively helped these scholars achieve their success to know of their apprecia- tion and understanding of the efforts and time they have expended toward this end. A word of thanks is also due the School Orchestra which helps so im- measurably to brighten the Association's meetings. Every parent's interest in his child's scholastic welfare is naturally taken for granted, and in just such a way do we take it for granted that he or she will be interested in the organization which promotes the students' welfare. As our Association grows in size so are our meetings and activities growing in benefit and entertainment, and we know each parent will not show him- self indifferent to this opportunity of becoming a member. MRS. A. CREss, Pres. Parents' Association. wk as ae CREENA WALLACE: What does a doctor have that a teacher must have?',' MARG. RICHARDS: Patience.

I - KA' IN CONSPECTU COLOSSEO Editor, HAZEL PHILLIPS, V B. ED1ToR's NOTE: We have never attempted a Latin page before. The reason, I suppose, is that Latin is thought to be so for- midable. Now we present to you a collection of Latin articles, songs and quotations, and ask you to decide, when you have read both the Latin and the French, which you find easier and which you prefer. And as for German! We hope to have contributions from the students for our next magazine. Then, all ye students of London South, Caesar will have nothing on you CCaesa1' vos irridere non poterfiij, and our Latin page will be original! And, I pray you, do not criticise too harshly this beginning. -H. M. P. Puer et Poma Erat in agro arbor, in qua poma multa erant. Puer poma vidit. Prima luce in arborem ascendit et decem poma ab arbore removit. Iam ex ar- bore descendere oportuit et ab agro discedereg sed agricola, qui puerum viderat, magnum canem in agrum duxit. Tum puer perterritus magno clam- ore locum complevitg sed auxilium afuit. Agricola appropinquavit et puerum ita monuit. Poma non tua sunt. Cur poma aliena ab arbore removebas? Non aequum erat. Fur es, et canis fures mordebit. Bonus puer esse debes. Tum puer exclamat: Hnumquam iterum fur ero. Nunc can- em ex agro educ. Agicola risit, canem abduxit. Puer incolumis relictus est, sed poma amis- erat. Bonum consilium agricolae post- ea memoria tenuit. Songs and Poems Servet regem Deus Servet regem Deus Diu vivat noster rex Magnanimusg Victor incedito, Faustus felix esto, Diu turno in regno- Sic oramus. Munera quae tenes Optim a illi donesg Diu regnet rex Leges nobis tuens, Laudes nostras merens Ac studium diligensg Vivat noster rex. 0 Canada O Canada, majorum patria Frontem refulgens aurat purpura Tua dextra gladio suflicit Fidem servat liberam, Tua fama splendida respicit Heroum gloriam, Virtus tenax, servet domos Defendat aras, protegat filios. Exaudi Deus da fidem, fer opem. Mica, mica, parva stella Mica, mica, parva, stellag Miror quaenam sis tam bella! Splendens eminus in illo, Alba velut gemma, caelo. Quando fervens sol discessit Nec calore prata pascit, Mox ostendis lumen purum, Micans, micans per obscurum.
