This present period is distinguished by a machine technique and a scientific method. which have been contributory causes ot' over- production, unemployment and all the troubles with which we, who have lived through these years of depression, are so familiar. Scores of articles have been written by scientists. econo- mists, philosophers and ordinary wayfaring men dealing with these questions from every conceivable angle and suggesting remedies. On one point they all agree, that the future must bring vast changes at which we can only conjecture. The dominant tendencies of one age have always proved to be the guideposts to the changes of the next generation. If one can judge then from the signs of the times. the greatest changes will come in industry and education. which, of course, will revolutionize life as we now know it. One writer prophesies that within fifty years there will be socialization of industry with a consequent breaking down of the cap- italist system. All public utilities and natural resources will no longer be privately owned, but will be run by the state with the profits for the people. In our recent Federal election. hun- dreds of candidates entered the race on such platforms. but the results showed that Canada is not ready for drastic changes, although there are thousands of people clamoring for them. The government of the future will be even more in the interests of the common people. Insurance for unemployment, sickness, and old age will be as commonplace as mail delivery to-day. There will be no extremes of luxury or poverty, no crowded cities and slums. and men will live and work under ideal conditions. In fact, there will be socialized control of both work and wealth. Page Fourteen The activities of school education will have to change to suit the new objectives in life. High schools will, therefore, be largely technical in character. where everyone must prepare to earn a living. Only those who show special ability will be allowed to enter university. High school and university education will no longer be a badge of social distinction: the play-boy spirit will be as dead as a dodo. for the schools will really be a practical preparation for life. Popular adult education will be more Wide- spread than it is to-day. Special emphasis will be laid on music, drama. dramatic art, litera- ture, and economics, as familiar parts of the life of the ordinary man. XVe may or we may not like the prospects of of such a future, but it. cannot be denied that there is much to think about which it behooves us to approach with independent, inquiring minds. It is. therefore. the duty of all sane- minded people who wish to preserve the best of what the past has bequeathed us, to study earnestly and sympathetically these economic and social problems with the hope of solving them. The key words to the future are progress and youth. The progress will certainly be determined by the kind of youth being produced in our schools and colleges to-day. If, during the process of education. they develop and retain the good habits of thoughtful study. co-operation, careful, wise investigation, with an inquiring, unprejudiced mind, the future will be safe in their hands. Having safeguarded and provided for to-morrow as intelligently as possible, they should be able to approach with confidence whatever the future may bring. -Gordon Jeffery, IV C. Education - Its Hims WORLD so complicated as ours must continually take stock of its educational methods. Few there are in existence today who believe that our social system is above reproach. and one and all are looking to education to blaze new and better trails. Education has always been considered the best means of preparing Youth for the vicissitudes of Fate. It' it is to continue so. it must obtain methods and subjects of study which will foster inde- pendent thinking and reasoning. The principal aim of education should always be to improve from generation to generation the mental outlook of the general populace. To be able to read and comprehend is valuable. but to be able to think and reason in some measure about political problems is THE ORACLE still more important. Plato and Aristotle, per- haps the greatest thinkers of all time. agree that education is the very root and life-blood of political progress. To say that education, even if this ideal followed, will be a panacea for all the ills and troubles that oppress us is without doubt an exaggeration, but we can and do say that it will be of great assistance. -Gordon Jeffery. IV C. My Qpinion of Morning Hssemblies T has often struck me as a profound mystery why we all seem so dull, and our teachers so unbearably irritable, on Wednesday morn- ings. One particularly gloomy Wednesday morn- ing, as the forty-four minute stroke of the nrst period clicked by, my head suddenly struck the desk. as I dozed in peaceful slumber. I awoke with a start! It had dawned on me! I had missed my regular morning invigorator, assem- bly in the auditorium. An age old proverb says Absence makes the heart grow fonderf' In keeping with this axiom,-the more I miss assembly, the more I long for it. Unless stimulated by a lusty song or school yell, we do not seem quite awake as we wearily trudge towards our desks. Having a forty-five minute dose of us to look forward to, a sim- ilarly affected staff is present to greet our arrival. fHoping you will keep the secret between you and me. I believe. despite their stern mien and disapproving glances, they enjoy assembly as much as, and, if possible, perhaps more than we do.D Seriously, though, I Consider the privilege of meeting in auditorium a real treat. Without it, our school life would certainly be extremely boring. It brings a great variety of entertain- ment--song, news of the school and its occu- pants, hilarious skits, and, to remind us where we are, notilication to report our reason-or shall I say excuse ?-for skipping detentions to the ofiice, immediately after adjournment. Speaking of the entertainment provided during our assemblies, one feels greatly indebted to the forgotten group, those who work behind the scenes to prepare slides, musical arrangements, and skits to amuse us. Their work, although not openly praised enough, is appreciated by all, I am sure. So, here's to auditoriumg may it live long and last longer! -Charles Hoare, IV C. SOUTH C. I. British Economic Recovery RITISH economic recovery has not been an overnight one. but a gradual change. The policies adopted to relieve the dire situation were carried out according to the British tradi- tion-in a dignified manner. There was no blare of trumpets. no broadcasting of details of the plan. At the time of the British crisis in 1931. the Labor Government was in power. The leaders of this party were opposed to suspen- sion of the Gold Standard. for they felt this would mean loss of international prestige. They were urged by the bankers and financiers to try drastic economy measures, but this would have meant a big increase in unemployment. Inability of the leaders to decide on a definite policy led to the resignation of the Labor Government. A National Coalition Govern- ment, which adopted an Off the Gold Stand- ard and higher tariff policy, was then formed. Even Phillip Snowden, a Labor representative in the new government, who was originally a rank Free Trader, advocated the high tariff. as he felt this to be a necessary measure for British recovery. The co-operation of the Brit- ish people generally aided materially. They carried the burden of taxation uncomplainingly. accented the conversion bonds and poured into the British exchequer their old gold. The policy of 'teconomyu was gradually dropped. Wealthy people were urged to spend, and as the rate of interest fell, business men were pressed to borrow. Building societies experienced a boom, and conditions in general began to improve. The recovery policy was capitalistic rather than socialistic, so that the confidence of the capitalists and iinanciers was restored. The mental attitude of the entire British nation became optimistic. Britain was well on to recovery before the world realized that some expert internal financing was being done and, after 1932, Britain's recovery aided some in the alleviation of the economic crises in the world as a Whole. -Jean Jarmaine, IV C.

GOLD MEDAL ESSAY - BY LLOYD STEVENSON HE most obvious way in which Canada can contribute towards world peace is by sup- porting Great Britain and the League of Nations in their efforts for international amity. Lord Cecil's recent Peace Ballot has shown con- clusively that the British people are peace- minded, and Great Britain's tremendous power and prestige a1'e on the side of peace: the other nations of the Commonwealth can strengthen this influence by their loyalty. The League, though hampered, perhaps, by too rigid a cove- nant, is still the world's best guarantee against war, and should receive Canada's whole-hearted support. It is commonly agreed that the pressure of increasing populations in the countries of Europe is one of the causes of war. Canada. being a large, underpopulated country, can help to relieve this pressure by welcoming immi- grants from Europe. Government restrictions on immigration might be relaxed somewhat without endangering national interests. Since nickel is an essential for the making of armaments, Canada's predominance in nickel production has forced upon her a grave respon- sibility to the world community. Canadian nickel should not be exported to an aggressive belligerent in time of war-in the present case this means Italy. This restriction, subject to the decision of the League, should apply also to wheat and other exports, even although applica- tion of League sanctions will mean a loss to Canada of approximately 53.250000 annually for the duration of the Italo-Ethiopian war. For more than a century Canada has lived at peace with her neighbour, the United States Republic. This continued peace has been built on the foundation of mutual trust and friend- ship, and comparatively low tariffs. Protection not only diminishes trade, but it transforms the competition between economic groups into a strife between nations. If Canada is able, by reciprocity arrangements with other nations, to lead the way in lowering tariff walls, she will have made a material contribution to world peace. But Canada's relation to the United States has another significance: the strengthening of the bond between the Republic and Great Britain. It has often been declared that if SOUTH C. I. 4. i X S .

And Canada can do much to bring about this union of purpose. It has been said that education for peace means a diminution in the intensity of the emotions and passions and loyalties which make war possible. Canadian children should not be encouraged to be ardent, aggressive 'tpatriotsf' Our system of education should foster a con- ception of the human race as a whole, and of the interdependence of nations. Moreover, this conception should form a part of the adult education in Canada: immigrants from Europe should not be urged to give over their old attachments altogether, but rather to let them flourish side by side with their new loyalty to Canada, so that the new Canadians may become, in a measure, world citizens. . . .

Fefe Plays Strange Tricks at Times, as Bill Morrow Found Out BILL TUBBY MORROW lazily uncoiled from his very comfortable reclining posi- tion in the swivel chair. Something seemed wrong today. Something was making him rest- less. Bill reached for his hat and coat, locked up his oflice and decided that, since the boss was away, he would take a half-holiday. He descended the long, straight stairs to the busy street below. The barber shop clock showed just nine minutes to two, on this fine, sunny afternoon. He greeted the barber. Hi, Tony. Going to Ethiopia to fight? he asked jovially. I might as well, for all the trade I get, mourned the little Italian. There's been just nine people in here today. Business is great, he added sarcastically. Tubby smiled and strolled on. For diver- sion he counted the cars parked along the street. Just nine in this block, he muttered, his brow puckering. About the middle of the next block, as Tubby sauntered on, a hurrying pedestrian bumped him heavily. dropping a suitcase which he carried. Sorry.l' apologized Tubby. rather annoyed. He was mildly interested to see the stranger quickly regain his balance, clutch the suitcase tightly and hurry off without apologizing. the stranger. His quest was short. for the stranger turned to the right and descended a short fiight of stairs. after nervously glancing up and down the street. Tubby was just in time to see him enter a door at the bottom and carefully shut it. Tubby made a mental note of the street number. 'LNine-ninety-nine is the number-say, why all the nines today'?'l mused Tubby. And why on earth did I wear myself out following that guy? I must be going nuts. After a Tom Collins at the nearest re- freshment haven, Tubby felt braced up and full of pep. He decided to go to the races at the polo grounds. First race is at three o'clock, thought Tubby. Just time to get my car and get there. Half an hour later our friend was grunting at the rail beside the track, while two pon- derous gentlemen enthusiastically shoved their elbows in his rather prominent stomach. But Tubby was as enthusiastic as they, and repaid them. plus interest. Tubby sighed mournfully as the first two races were won by numbers nine. Just before the third race Tubby felt in his pocket and remembered the weekly pay envelopes for his firm which contained a total of iive hundred and some-odd dollars.

British partici- pation in this event was not decided upon until the end of January. 1931, leaving only a short time before the race-a time considered insufh- cient for the testing of new planes and engines. Thus it was necessary to develop the designs that were successful in 1929. Externally the 1931 S6B planes were simi- lar to 1929 S6 craft, the chief difference immediately perceptible being the much longer fioats on the new machines. The internal differences were many more in number, and very marked. The 2,300-horsepower Rolls- Royce racing engine -- 211, more powerful than the 1929 power plant but only 6122 heavier-required much larger radiator sur- faces. Water cooling radiators therefore occu- pied every possible inch of the upper and lower surfaces of the wings and the upper surfaces of each float. Oil, requiring similar cooling. was carried in the tail fin, and cooled by passing through radiators located on each side of the fuselage. This increased the efficiency of the oil cooling system by 40'l. Fuel was carried in tanks within the floats. From there it was forced by engine-driven suction pumps to a pressure tank in the fuselage. Much more fuel is put in the star- board float than in the port one to counteract the propeller torque. equivalent, at full throttle, to 500 pounds. On steeply banked turns, due to the great centrifugal force, the fuel supply is cut off, and the engines have to be fed from the pressure tank. When the plane was travelling at speeds between 350 and 400 miles per hour, due to slight inaccuracies of design, a fiuttering of the control surfaces was noticed. To overcome this. small streamlined balances and flaps were built on the control surfaces. The kind of propeller employed seriously affected control on the take-off and landing. The new one, 102 inches in diameter, compared with the other of 114-inch diameter of 1929, caused violent swinging to port. even with full starboard rudder. This was finally remedied by using a propeller 109 inches in diameter. The Rolls-Royce racing engine used by Flight Lieutenant Stainforth on his first attempt produced 2,300 horsepower, an in- crease of 400 horsepower over the 1929 engine, with an increase of only 100 pounds in weight. When using a special fuel containing a high percentage of alcohol, a minor adjustment on the motor raised it to 2,600 horsepower. To effect this change. the twelve-cylinder HV engine had a new supercharger added to it. This supercharger. located in the V of the engine, draws air into the motor at the rate of 250,000 cubic feet per hour. To nr the new design around the nose of the craft, a new type of connecting rod had to be made. With this change, one twenty-five minute oil was used at the rate of 112 gallons per hour. This rate was finally reduced to 14 gallons per hour, with the pure castor oil enter- ing the engine at 80iC. and leaving it at 140iC. With all these difhculties overcome, the S613 was able to set up a world's record of 340 miles per hour over the Schneider course, to win the famous Schneider Cup permanently for Britain. Although this same plane reached a speed of 408 miles per hour for a new world's record, Francisco Angello flew the Italian Macchi sealane at a speed considerably in excess of this during recent trials in Italy. However, when we consider that the Italian plane was built in 1934, six years after the original plans for the Supermarine S6 were made, we can easily see that such an advance is only logical, and does not lessen Britain's achievement. IN MEMORIAM South was shocked by the loss of Jack Parr, who was killed in an automobile accident east of Lambeth on June 1, 1935. Jack had been a pupil of South since 1933, and in that time he made many friends and leaves many happy memories. Tragic, too, was the death of his collie, Napoleon. After five days of grieving, the dog died, heart-broken. A fine dog and a fine master-We tender our deepest sympathies to his family. G. D. SOUTH C. I.

Translated by Lloyd Stevenson, V B .f 2, ,,, LARK THE ORACLE li Mickey - - H Strange Pet AST spring a nature-loving student brought to the Normal School a young red-tailed hawk which he had found alone in its nest. He thought that it would be interesting to raise the lonely bird at his home. But as this proved to be a more difficult problem than he had anticipated, he decided to present it to the Science Master at the Normal School. Prepara- tions were made at once to care for this shy. keen-eyed youngster that he might be well pro- vided for in his artificial surroundings. Since he was always on the alert. and preferred mice to any other diet, he was christened Mickey Mickey became the centre of interest at the Normal School. A platform was erected beside a basement window, where he could bask in the sun and survey the campus. The most difficult problem was to provide him with mice. Very often he was obliged to satisfy his voracious appetite with pieces of raw beefsteak. It was great fun to watch Mickey jump onto those hunks, hold them with his sharp, curved claws, and tear off morsel after morsel. He soon came to be considered a pet. He recognized his name and accepted petting readily. He liked company and was pleased to have his friends talk to him through the window. It was interesting to watch him as he sat with his head on one side, looking as if he wished to say, Won't you come in .Pu Gradually he developed real feathers which grew and grew until we thought he should be able to Hy. He occasionally made excursions about the basement, but not on wing. To try his pinions he was frequently taken outdoors and tethered by a long leash. For the summer Mickey was taken to Park- hill, to be introduced to a newly formed falconry club. Mr. McKinnon, who was training the hawks, kindly displayed some of the accomplish- ments of his bird, Lad. He would whistle and she would come Hying from a distance to perch on his gauntleted arm. Probably Mickey would be an apt pupil and be able to perform that same stunt, when he had become acquainted with Mr. McKinnon and realized that he was his friend. We felt sure that in September Mickey would be back in London, a keen falcon, who would prove to be a great asset to the city by ridding it of a few perky, prattling starlings. But we were doomed to disappointment. When we went for Mickey, we learned that he had lived only three days. Experts were of the opinion that he had died from rickets and indi- gestion. Mickey evidently needed many more mice and rats and less beefsteak to keep him in good growing condition. Perhaps if he had had some cod liver oil added to his diet, he might have been able to soar to the high trees at which he gazed for so many days through the window. Tl-IE SWAMP i SOUTH C. I.

Tommy's report was offered for her comment. Well this looks as if your fears for his progress were groundless: but is there no class standing given? Mr. Brown smiled. Class standing on reports creates a spirit of competition and often gives rise to feelings of jealousy, so it is no longer reportedf' Next morning Grandma telephoned Aunt Eleanor and told her about the favourable report from Tommy's teacher. Aunt Eleanor said she liked that word, trying, it showed honest effort. During the second month Tommy main- tained a stolid silence regarding school matters. One day father, projecting his mind into the past, remembered that the letters of the alphabet played an important role in his early school life. He cautiously approached his son on the subject. I suppose you know your alphabet by now, Tommy ? Oh yes, answered the young hopeful. What letters come after 'A'? inter- rogated father. All the rest of 'em, came the ready reply, as Tommy rushed out the back door. The second report laid the father's peda- gogical efforts low and raised the family hopes high by stating, Still trying.

As the iirst term neared a close, Tommy often returned home with torn blouse, frayed pants, presenting a generally dilapidated appearance. No amount of judicious ques- tioning, howeyer, threw any light either upon his progress or his conduct. Father seemed to understand small boys of school age and silenced the family's questions in no uncertain terms. Ever since that lad started to school you have suspected him of something. First it was his standing. and when the reports settled that, you all pile onto him about his conduct. Let the boy be a boy. That eveliing the term i'epoi't came and was eagerly opened.

For generations his fore- fathers had always been butlers to the best English families. Benson was more adventurous than his ancestors, for, thirty-two years ago, he had come to Canada, when he had entered into the service of his present master, Colonel Jarvis. For Benson, time had but heightened dignity. One day, before entering to announce the arrival of Mrs. Healy's car, he paused outside the living-room door. Mrs. Healy's falsetto voice came to his ear. My dear, I would never take the risks you are taking. I think it is very foolish of you to keep your wonderful necklace of diamonds here. You know. in these days-the servants-. Here Mrs. Jarvis interrupted her guest: 'tWhy Helen, our servants have been with us for years. I'd as soon dis- trust my own mother as I would them. They are devoted to usf' The harsh voice grated: Oh, you never can tell,-and you know that butler of yours has a face which I've never liked. Give him a chance and he'd do the worst possible. Benson stiffened, even though his mistress indulgently replied: Oh, you must mean Benson. Helen, he's one in a million. He's the perfect servant. Benson coughed, entered the room and announced the arrival of the car. Being a perfect servant. he did not stare coldly at Mrs. Healy. These words would not, ordinarily, have been noticed by Benson, but since he had not been paid for four months. he allowed himself to slip, and think-a thing which is never done by a perfect servant. He knew that the famous Jarvis necklace was an heir- loom and insured for 2i5250,G00. He also knew that Colonel Jarvis had lost his fortune in the bankruptcy of his iirm, and that the safe in the wall, which held the necklace, was old and fiimsy,-had been once broken, and had been mended imperfectly. Benson had, paradoxically, a true love of detective fiction and, like all amateur detectives, had a cherished perfect crime. When he went to bed, his plans were complete. The next night his employers were dining out. Having seen the Colonel and his wife to their car, Benson returned to the library. Drawing on a pair of gloves. he soon forced the safe with the aid of a cold-chisel and a poker from the fireplace. The job took about ten minutes. Dropping the necklace into his pocket, he returned to the servants' quar- ters. Later he hid the necklace behind a brick in the cellar. One of the maids discovered the robbery the following morning and soon there were detectives all over the house,- dropping ashes on priceless Persian rugs, and proving to be general nuisances. Benson's alibi was perfect. He had eaten, returned to his quarters, and played cards with another servant until the return of his master.

URING the Seven Years' War in North America, the war which determined the an English officer named destiny of Canada. James Cook served his king on a man-of-war, downfall of Quebec. This and witnessed the oflicer, whose name was later to appear in the history of Canada's great sister dominion, soundings which made it Australia, took the possible for the English ships to navigate the St. Lawrence, and so to bring about the down- fall of Quebec and the conquest of Canada. France, deprived of her greatest colony in the north, began to consider the possibilities of Australia. But Holland claimed the country, and Spain's pretension could not be ignored. None of these nations, however. made any attempt to colonize the land, and Australia still waited for an active claimant. In 1770 Captain Cook sailed westward from New Zealand, and, cruising along the east coast of Australia. landed at Botany Bay, where he planted the British Hag. It was a fateful occa- sion, that autumn morning now more than a hundred and sixty years past, that marked the beginning of England's interest in Australia. That was in March. On June 11th. after a trying voyage, during which his ship was all but sunk, and most of his ship's company died of fever. Cook docked his vessel at Deal, in the south of England. 'We can picture him striding up from the quay in his blue coat and white knee-breeches, bearing a message whose tre- mendous import not even he could guess. Sixteen years passed. and despite the danger of being forestalled England continued to neglect Australia, and probably would have done so still longer had not her hand been forced. For some time it had been the custom to transport political prisoners and other unde- sirables to the American colonies. especially the Southern States. But the American revolu- tion closed the door. and in 1788 Captain Phillip arrived at Botany Bay with the Iirst transport of convicts to settle in Australia. This beginning did not augur well for the future of the new land. Nevertheless, it must be remembered that the great majority of the transported convicts were unfortunate political offenders. and very few were criminals in any real sense of the word. Page Twenty-six During its early history the penal colony at Sydney had a very unhappy existence. But con- ditions gradually improved, and many free settlers began to come across from Great Britain and to take up farms and sheep runs. Those convicts who were disposed to Work were assigned to these settlers as labourers or servants, and were paid small Wages. When their sentences expired, many of them took up land and became enterprising settlers. As the free population increased, the colony began to protest against the transportation of convictsg opinion in England turned against the practice, and it was finally discontinued altogether. Although the system did not give the new land a fair chance, Hit provided, to quote Professor Trevelyan, a convenient base, and a method of communication with distant England, very necessary for the first stages of colonization which speedily followed. ENGLAND CONFIRMED CLAIMS So the island continent awoke to the light. Spain laid claim to itg the Dutch named it New Holland g France designed it for her owng and Captain Cook claimed it for England. But of these four nations, England alone confirmed her claim by colonizing it. Bold explorers now began to push inland, braving the frown of nature, and carrying out their task in the face of incredible difficulties. Lawson, Wentworth and Blaxland succeeded in passing the barrier of the Blue Mountains, which limit the coastal strip where settlement was begun. The frontier moved swiftly inland. Squatters took up land on the Bathurst Plains and founded Australiats pastoral industry. Exploration continued. The names of Leich- hardt. Eyre, Sturt and MacDouall Stuart are cut large in the story of Australia. Their expeditions covered thousands of miles, and gave much important information about the country. Sturt, perhaps the most famous of them all, explored the Murray-Darling river system, and was probably the first white man to see the rich land of the river basins, thou- sands of acres in extent. Navigators had mean- while been exploring the coasts, and the voyages of Bass and Flinders resulted in the accurate charting of the coasts of Tasmania, and many miles of the continental shore-line.

But in 1851 the discovery of gold gave new impetus to immigration. When the f1l'St mad rush had somewhat subsided. many of the gold-seekers procured blocks of land, and settled down to become farmers and sheep-herders. The offer of free land to settlers was a further inducement to the people of Great Britain and Ireland to come out to the new con- tinent. In this way Australia acquired a stable population made up of virile, self-reliant Britishers, tempered by a new environment. and given stronger initiative and resource. The years fled swiftly by. Each of the six States made steady progress: but each was sep- arate and distinct from the others, and there were customs duties between State and State. Mutual jealousy between the neighbouring col- onies was detrimental to trade and retarded gen- eral development. But there was a national spirit growing in the land, and, in 1899, proposals for federation were submitted to the people for a general vote. The proposals were accepted: and with the consent of Great Britain, the Common- wealth of Australia came into existence in 1901. The union of the states of Australia was in marked contrast to the similar union which took place thirty-live years earlier in Canada. The Canadian statesmen of that time took the matter into their own hands, and there was no plebiscite. And while the federation of the Canadian provinces took place more than three centuries after the founding of the first colony, union in Australia came little more than a hun- dred years after the landing of the first settlers at Sydney. Australia proved her worth as a nation dur- ing the catastrophe of the World War. Since then she has borne with fortitude the winter of an economic depression, and is now rejoicing in the springtime of returning prosperity. INDUSTRIES AND THEIR FUTURE For many years British freighters discharg- ing at Australian ports sailed empty to China to load cargoes of tea. But. due to the exertions of John Macarthur, who came out to Sydney as an ofiicer in the New South Wales Corps, merino sheep were introduced into the country, and presently small amounts of Australian Wool were sent to England on the returning ships. Macarthur bred sheep scientiiicallyg and pro- duced the Australian merino, a hardy sheep, with a heavy fleece of line wool. In thirty years the expansion of the industry had changed the balance of forces in the wool world and had made Australia's greatest contribution to the strength of the Empire. Ever since the time of Macarthur wool- growing has been Australia's most important industry. It provides approximately half of the annual income of the nation, and gives more employment in the country than any other occupation. How vitally important, then, is the future of the industry, not only to those im- mediately engaged in it, but to the nation as a whole! lCuntinued on Page 663 ,jE'i:-- SOUTH C.

The show was just as salty as its name implies: Jack tars galore rolled from the quay to the tavern, and made love in true sailor fashion to the comely village maidens of Barnstapoole. The delightful little plot was concerned with a slightly complicated love tangle, but the end brought happiness to all, including Bill Salt, bluff boatswain of the Bounding Billow, whose bungling ways caused all the trouble in the first place. Though the plot was well developed, the operetta was, of course. essentially musical. Sweet, beautiful music, both vocal and instru- mental. formed a variegated background for the action and provided the show with some of its most exquisite highlights. Perhaps mention of some ot' the enjoyable numbers should be made here, however, I believe that to those who did not have the pleasure of hearing them, the names would mean nothing, while those who did hear them have not forgotten them. Scenery. costumes and lighting were all well nigh perfect, providing the air of almost professional smoothness which was character- istic of the show. Mr. Allin, who organized the operetta, and Mr. XValter Dixon, who assisted in the final production and staging, were co-directors. A tremendous amount of work was neces- sary to make the operetta a success, and all their time and talents to this end are deserving oi' the highest praise. -Ross Anderson. Page Twenty-eight Grchestra News N musical and dramatic efforts as Well as in T scholastic, oratorical and athletic accom- plishments, the year 1934-5 was a decided success in London South Collegiate. The enroll- ment in the orchestra during the year proved to be the largest ever reached, as there were over fifty active members. In the absence of Mr. Byles, Mr. Brown very capably took over the leade1'ship and a very high standard of musical perfection was attained. During' the year the orchestra contributed to many programmes, both for morning audi- torium and Literary Society meetings. It also provided entertainment for the Parents' Associa- tion Evening, the Oratorical Contest and Prize Night. However, the most important perform- ance was the accompaniment for the operetta, The Nautical Knot, and a great deal of extra time was put on its improvement. In addition to musical activities, the orchestra held its annual picnic at Mr. Won- nacott's farm. The visitors and members we1'e organized in deiinite groups with a leader for each. Perhaps the most exciting was the Scavenger Hunt and many of us learned how hard it was to get Mr. Graham's signature. When a good appetite had been worked up by various games, and, in some cases, by carrying water pails, each group cooked weiners and other delicacies over its own tire. This year the orchestra is somewhat smaller in number, but the various sections are well balanced. There are. however, some sections still unrepresented, and any new members would be gladly accepted. We welcome Mr Byles again as our leader and are looking for- ward to just as good a year as the last. -Betty Ferris, IV C.

The proportion of First Class Honours lobtained was a source of great satis- lfaction to the staff and friends of this school. As a result of their excellent foundation We are quite repared to predict some excellent ecords will be made by graduates of fthis group in their university courses lor other branches of more advanced study which they may select. Three pf this graduating class were awarded scholarships by the University of Western Ontario on the results of the 1935 Honour Matriculation Examina- tions. The General Proticiency Scholar- ship for highest standing in English, History, Mathematics and two Sciences, of a value of 360000, was awarded to Leverne Williams. He also ranked for seven other scholar- ships of smaller value. His splendid record of ten first class honours was quite in accordance with what we had learned to expect throughout his course. The scholarship for highest stand- ing on Biology, Physics, Chemistry and any other two papers, of a value of 330000, was awarded to Ross Anderson. Along with this award. Ross ranked for four other scholar- ships of the same or smaller value. He had eight firsts and one second class honours on his nine papers. A Special Tuition Scholarship for London South Collegiate Institute for highest standing on nine papers of Upper School work, of a value of 3250.00, was awarded to Joan Break- SOUTH C. I. spear. She had iirst class honours on all of her eleven papers, and ranked for three other scholarships of smaller value. To these scholarship winners and also to several others who. as under- graduates won University of Western Ontario Scholarships this year, we wish to extend our heartiest con- gratulations and to convey to them the assurance that our interest in their future success is exceedingly keen. Mr. Thomas E. Wilson of Chcago. an old London boy and graduate of the Ontario Agricultural College, offered three scholarships, each of a value of 315000, to be awarded each year to students graduating from the London Collegiate Institutes and desiring to enter the O. A. C. at Guelph. Ernest Grove was awarded one of these scholarships this year. and is now in attendance at that institution. Carter Scholarships Early in November the Depart- ment of Education announced the winners of the Carter Scholarships in the various counties throughout the Province. Three of these are awarded in each county, or in some cases groups of counties, for highest stand- ing on ten papers of Upper School work. For Middlesex, Leverne Wil- liams was awarded the Second of these, value 36000. and Joan Break- spear the third. value 34000. Whiskard Scholarships and Other Prizes, 1935 The late T. G.

SEVENTY EAT!-IOMS DEEP DAVID SCOTT F it is a book written in a personal, straight- forward, yet very interesting and thrilling manner that you are seeking, allow me to recommend this very one. The author, David Scott, is a well known British journalist whose writings have most certainly given us, through his descrition of the Works ot' the Sorima Sal- vage Comany. a marvellous insight and under- standing of the dangers and perils connected with deep sea diving. Scott himself spent several years as an observer on the flagship of the company: therefore. he speaks with much authority. The Sorima Company. during its career. was the leader of all such concerns. Perhaps the two most famous wrecks of which it had control were the Elizabethville. Which sank near Belle Isle. France. after being tor- nedoed bv a German submarine: and the Egvnt. which toundered in the Rav of Biscay off Ushant. The ease with which operations were enacted on these hulks. although both lay in verv ditficult locations. spoke well for the potentialities of the company. and seemed to promise well for its future. Except for the unfortunate end of the concern by the sinking of its flagship, no doubt greater projects would have been accomplished later. In conclusion I say that the reader may cer- tainly be assured of receiving very valuable, interesting and extremely educationaly mate- rial from it. -Don Miller, IV A. THE ORACLE PILGRIIVIS QI: TI-IE WILD ' ILGRIMS of the Wild is the story of the pilgrimage of two lovers. It is told in the simple, vivid style of a world-famous Indian half-breed known as Grey Owl. He himself is the first characterg his Wife, Anahareo, daugh- ter of an old line of Iroquois chiefs, is the other. Their home is in the Canadian wild, where they are brought so closely in contact with the beaver that the almost human qualities of these animals win for them the respect and love of these two people. They endeavour to realize their vision of protecting and preserving the life of these little people of the wild. The struggle to provide these sanctuaries has been a long and hard one and is still not completed. Only by Grey Owl's great love of animal life, his strength of character and his perseverance, has he been appointed Protector of Wild Life. In this position he has been able to ensure some safety for the beavers, which are the friends of the rapidly vanishing red man. Grey Owl's intense love of living things, his noble character, his dauntless courage and determination and the spirit of the Indian race are so strongly felt that the story is a living one. Pilgrims of the Wild cannot help but add many new friends to Grey Owl's long list as well as bringing closer to him the older ones. -D. McColl, IV B. TI-IE I-ICUSE of the FOUR WINDS JOHN BUCI-IAN HF you have liked any of Buchan's previous books, you should not fail to read this one. The House of the Four Winds completes the series dealing with the adventures of Dickson McCunn and his friends, which was begun in Huntingtower and carried on in Castle Gay. The same characters remain in this book as in the other two, with the introduction of some new ones. The hero of this story, Jaikie Galt, goes on a walking tour in Europe. He comes into an imaginary country called Evallonia. where plans are being made for a revolution. From this point the story moves at a rapid rate. The monarchist party tries to obtain Jaikie's sup- port, and another party, called Juventus, attempts to do the same. He refuses to help either one and hereupon the leader of the Juventus retains him by force. The chief, who was educated at Cambridge with Jaikie, is per- suaded by the latter that it would be best to unite the two parties. Many difficulties arise and Jaikie goes through numerous perils with- out any visible progress being made. At last, by a brilliant and daring idea on the part of Mr. McCunn, the head of the monarchists is put on the throne. This book is written in the same interest- ing and fast-moving style that made the Adventures of Richard Tannay so well liked. I think that this book is well worth reading and that it should prove interesting to anyone. -Christian Jenson, IV C. f FRIENDS Men count their money to measure their Wealth, And add up their treasures of goldg But each day they labour they build up a treasure That cannot be counted nor sold.

I wish that I were as eloquent as Cicero, so that I could make you understand that your years while at South Follegiate will be the most cherished ones you will ever have. I shall endeavour to express my thoughts and feel- ings as I look back over the short and tleeting years ot' school life, and try to discern through the misty shadows ot' the future, the pathway which each, in his own way, follows. As we pass from our youth to more mature years, one light seems to shine before us. burning brighter than all others. appealing to our im- agination and promising, if we strive hard enough, to be our one goal in life, that we alone can reach. All dangers and dilticulties, which at first seem insurmountable, can be over- come, if we never let the light. which will forever be our guide, fade from sight. We must continually press for- ward and upwards to our goal, until it is attained, for there is no royal road to learning. of fun and a good way to get acquainted with everyone, al- l l il i I l I ll 1 , l Initiation!

No greater success could be oursg our dreams had come true! At last we had arrived at the goal toward which we had been striving for years and years-we were now about to enter First Year at South. Can you imagine anything mo1'e thrilling than that! How proudly we accompanied our parents to interview Mr. Graham. He talked mysteriously of Latin, Algebra and Botany. unknown subjects we were about to study. We had heard our big sisters and brothers talking of rugby and basketball games. They we1'e cer- tainly proud of the fact that they went to South. Now we were as good as they were, for we had reached the age of discretion and could enjoy all the privileges and delights of high school life. For the first few days, it is true, we felt a little awed by the huge buildings, the learned looking teachers and the great number of strange faces we saw around us. This feeling soon wore off, however, as we became familiar with our classmates and our teachers. There was. of course, the great ordeal of initiation yet to be experienced, but even the thought of that could not scare us. In fact I think most of us rather looked forward to it, for, after all, wear- ing a bow in your hair and putting your middy on backwards is not so very terrible. As the year went by we found our high expectations more than satisfied tespecially in the way of homeworkb. In some Way or another we acquired the idea that our year was by far the most important class in the school-at least I'm sure we did. for every first year since has had that idea and we were no better. The pros- pects of second year did not invite us particu- larly and we would have remained in first year tif all our classmates had stayed with us, of courseb. This year we are once more setting out for a different institution with a few of the same feelings, perhaps, but a little sobered by five years of high school. There was no principal here to discuss our courses with us beforehand, unless we asked for him especially. No mysterious hints of un- known subjects were heard until a few days after applications were put ing then we received permits to register with a list of the subjects to be taken. There, for the first time we saw such names as psychology, economics, and I, at SOUTH C. I. least, began to wonder whether my feeble brain could take in such subjects. After this came the ordeal of registration. No timetable was neatly Iilled out and handed to us: oh no. the only timetable we did receive was a list of sub- jects and the time at which they were to be taught, from which we proceeded to make out our own schedules. After a strenuous morning spent at this occupation came the most heart- breaking tor rather pocketbook-breakingj part of all-the payment of fees. Now that we have really started it is not so bad. The subjects are quite diflicult but will probably become easier. We do. of course. see professors in their long black gowns, but we get used to even that. How we will feel about University four years from now may be an entirely different question. but just now we think it's lots of fun and lots of work. -J. B. Youre Lucky! 'M going to quit school and get a job. This time-worn phrase is taken up year after year by many a dejected soul who, if he carries out his threat, invariably pays for it in the not too distant future. Why should he be dejected? Who wouldn't be with examination results hitting a new low? But remember, you get other chances in school and. with perseverance. can win out in the end. In the business world second chances are few and far between. If the reader's mind has been harbouring such thoughts he should banish them forever. Should he leave school. all too late he will wonder why he didn't spend that year or two on education, especially when time means as little as it does when one is young. Jobs are scarce-good jobs are scarcer, but it is not impossible to get one-even a good one -if you have the ability. ambition and the education that is demanded. Of course we need experience: but who are the people who advance into the better positions ? They are the people who have behind them experience plus a good education. Take the advice of one who of necessity had to leave school to seek employment. Go on as far as it is possible. Remember education counts now and will count more and more in the days to come. Go on and win! -Neil Patten. Page Thirty-seven - .-- artery-aeirifir VWNV- 57 1-ff. as 1 4 12? 1 -K K V X I H f R 5. , -. .fwaqi is 5 f 1 inning 1 IIIINUUE 1 I , f sr .fi .

This is the Dunlap Observatory. situated about twelve miles north of Toronto and half a mile east of Yonge Street on a height eight hundred feet above sea level. The David Dunlap Observatory was the gift of Mrs. J. D. Dunlap to the University of Toronto as a memorial to her husband. The late Mr. Dunlap and his wife were both very interested in astronomy and it was because of this interest and through the suggestion of Dr. Chant of the University of Toronto that Mrs. Dunlap so generously made this contribution. The Dunlap Observatory, which was for- mally opened on May 31, 1935, consists of two buildings: a steel structure which houses the big reflecting telescope with its seventy-fours inch mirror, and an administration building. The circular steel building was the most difficult to construct. To avoid heated air currents which would interfere with the obser- vations, the circular drum and the hemispherical dome have double walls. Air is permitted to enter the building by an open space at the base and circulates to the top, leaving through baffle plated openings at the top of the dome. At night the building is thrown open and the temperature within quickly assumes the out- side tempe1'ature. Even in cold Weather the structure cannot be heated because of the hot- air currents, and the observers have to Wrap up warmly. The dome rests on rollers on a circular Page Thirty-eight track and may be rotated so that an opening may be made to face any part of the sky. Thus an extremely wide radius of action is given to the telescope. The huge reflecting telescope, which the building contains, consists of a mirror and a heavy supporting framework which directs it toward the sky. This mir1'or is 74 inches in diameter, 12 inches thick and 5,000 pounds in weight. Because of the rotation of the earth, the mirror is continuously moved by mechanism to keep the desired object in focus. Great accuracy was required in the construction of the great mirror and it has been determined by measurements and by photographs that in no place is its surface at fault more than one- millionth of an inch. The Administration Building is a short dis- tance from the dome. It supplies the Observa- tory with a suitable office for the study of the results obtained by the immense telescope. In this building there are also a library and an auxiliary telescope with a 19-inch mirror. Before the Observatory will be really pre- pared to do any valuable astronomical work, it will have to accumulate a basis of photo- graphical knowledge of the universe. This can only be obtained after several years of diligent labor. Practically all the work done will be carried on by means of these photographs and, therefore, great. care must be exercised in securing them. As soon as these fundamentals are taken care of, the David Dunlap Observa- tory will undoubtedly take a leading part in the eternal strife for more universal knowledge and will attain a foremost position among the observatories of the world. -Graeme Cameron, IV C. T H E i O R A C OL E Tl-IE MCDDERN MARVEL 'JTSTANDING developments which have been taking place in the field of metal- lurgy rank copper as one of the most important metals of the decade. When one thinks of the variety of new uses for this metal, one must be impressed by the great volume of research that was necessary to find out what copper can con- tribute to the Power Age. Copper has long been used as an imp1'over of steel wherever maximum strength is required and corrosion resisting qualities essential. Although it strengthens steel, copper does not increase the carbon content. but leaves the alloy free for welding purposes. Beryllium-copper is another alloy. and it is used in diverse ways, such as the making of tools with hard, sharp edges. A cold chisel tipped with beryllium-copper will cut a rolled steel bar with ease. Hammers of this metal will forge iron with the greatest facility. In addition, its great resistance to fatigue makes it especially suitable for the manufacture of springs. But to find out all the really significant uses for which copper is being prepared. one must visit the mill. There, copper-chromium, copper- manganese, copper-molydenum, and copper bearing steels are being investigated in the research department in the hope of making some new startling discovery. Most copper developments in the practical stage are a direct contribution to the consumer, In particular, building materials of copper and its alloys are being substituted for steel. It is now possible for a man to have a home of steel rust-proofed by copper, with a copper roof on which is a patina of age-old green put on in a few weeks. In the kitchen, the copper plumb- ing and stove will probably outlast the owner. If his house is an old one. he may redecorate it with transparent colored shingles of copper. Then, if he wishes to commute to the city, copper-lead bearings in his car will allow him to travel fast with little fear of a burn-out. This increase in the employment and the uses of copper may be traced to the genii of modern applied research. Its resistance to corrosion combined with the qualities of strength and hardness resulting in its alloys make copper a formidable opponent in the con- tinual challenge of industrial progress. -Gordon Jeffery, IV C.

Under the able leadership of Mr. Calvert numerous students answered the call of the wild, and shattered the silence of the woodland with their heavy footsteps and harsh whispers Rising with the sun, they armed themselves with field glasses and notebooks and, pushing into the wilderness, took up the search with zest. A Hash of crimson-a delighted whisper -and pencils scratched the words 'tScarlet Tanager ! The call of tee-cher, tee-cher. sent them stumbling on to find a rarer specimen- the sombre little oven-bird. After filling pages with hastily scribbled words the tired students followed their guide lwho did not seem at all fatigued! to the car. Resting in its modern cushioned seats-so dif- ferent from the grassy knolls of the woods- the bedraggled bird-lovers were borne swiftly homeward to be received by parents, groaning over torn apparel and unsightly shoes.

RITERS and speakers have terrified the people by lurid descriptions of the death, destruction and chaos that an aerial attack on a citv would produce. As for me, I do not lselieve that an attack on a prepared city could be successfully carried out. The following is my theory concerning an attempted raid: A squadron of huge bombers takes to the air for an attack on an important city. Above and behind it, for protection, cruise two or three squadrons of attack-planes. As the armada nears its objective, ground-detectors pick up the sound of their motors and a warning is flashed to the endangered city. Immediately, fast intercepters roar into the sky to meet the oncoming enemy. These planes Page Thirty-nine impede the approach ot' the Q-'Ilt1l'ilY Iieet long enough for their own attack and pursuit planes to join the battle. If the attacking lieet suc- ceeds in overcoming this difficulty, it still has to run the gauntlet of deadly accurate anti- aircraft guns to reach its objective. Even though two or three of the bombers do succeed in reaching the metropolis, they still present no danger. In daytime, if they are carrying explosive bombs, they could not hit their targets because they would have to Hy high enough to escape the danger of a straiing from ground machine guns. At night. when they might be able to Hy low enough, they could not see their targets. If they are carry- ing gas bombs, they still can do no damage. Gas can hurt no one if it cannot reach the lungs. People, especially in Germany and France, are now being trained to don gas masks or enter gas-proof chambers at the first warning of an air attack. Consequently, the gas can reach no one to do any harm. What reason is there to terrify people with the aspect of deadly air raids? If you live in an unimportant city. the enemy will not bomb you: if you live in an important city, it will be protected, and the enemy will have small chance of dropping bombs on you. So-why worry? -Leonard Wray. IV C. l-IEAVY WATER LITTLE over a year ago Professor H. C. -L Wrey announced the discovery of heavy hy drogen and heavy water. Hydrogen has an atomic weight of one gramme, heavy hydrogen an atomic weight of two grammes. If this heavy hydrogen is united with oxygen, heavy water results. To distinguish hydrogen and heavy hydrogen, the latter is called Deuterium, and the heavy water Deuterium Oxide. Deuterium Oxide has a density of 1.074 as compared to that of water at 1. Its surface tension has been found to be the same as that of ordinary water. The exact proportion of heavy water in rain water has not been hxed, for results of experiments vary from one part in 4,000 to one part in 9,000. The most accurate experiments have placed it at the now accepted value of one part in 8,500 Page Forty Deuterium Oxide reacts more slowly tha11 does ordinary water. Photosynthesis is reduced by one-half when it takes place in concentrated Deuterium Oxide. Another reaction, that of making methane gas from aluminium carbide, is only IQ.. as rapid as with ordinary water. Deuterium Oxide is produced by reheated electrolysis of water, the residue each time being a greater concentration of the heavy water until the final residue is over 99'J heavy water. The Imperial Chemical Company in England, and the Norsk Hydro-Elektrisk Com-- pany in Norway, are producing it in saleable quantities for experimental and practical pur- poses if desired. There is a sample sealed in a glass phial on exhibit at the University of Western Ontario. This was received from the Norsk Hydro-Elektrisk Company. -Leverne Williams, Arts '39, U.W.O. MICROPHONE to LOUD SPEAKER N article that explained the whole science 4 of radio. even if it were possible. would be a dry, text-booky one. Therefore I do not intend to explain the why and wherefore of it-it would take a person much, much more versed in radio than I. This, then, is a short outline of the changes of electrical energy from the sound wave's entrance into the microphone to the reproduction by your loudspeaker. The low-frequency sound waves of a person speaking set up liuctuating electrical currents in the microphone. These feeble currents are greatly amplified by a series of thermionic tubes. When they are changed to a high- frequency by other tubes. the currents pass through another stage of amplification and are delivered to the transmitting aerial. These electrical currents, surging back and forth very rapidly from the aerial to the g1'ound. cause an atmospheric disturbance which sends out waves similar to those set up when a stone is dropped into water. These waves travel through the ether between the surface of the earth and an atmospheric layer of ionised gas. which reHects the waves in a curve following that of the earth. The waves are then picked up by the receiving aerial and changed into high-frequency currents. These currents must, however, be amplified before they can be of practical use. Next, they are passed on to a detector tube, which lit- erally cuts the frequency in two. The currents, after another stage of amplification, can now be changed back into sound waves by the loud- speaker, reaching us as the voice of the announcer. -Leonard Wray, IV C.

Mais, peut-etre, ne savons-nous pas qui ils etaient, ni ou Gotham se trouve, ni ce que signifie exactement Les Sages Fousf' Voici l'histoire: Gotham est un village de Nottinghamshire, et un jour sa Majeste. le roi Jean d'Angleterre, qui allait vers la ville de Nottingham, ordonna que ses aides passassent a travers le pre cle Gotham. Alors on croyait ces jours-la que toute la terre par ou le Roi pasasit, devenait une route publique. Les gens de Gotham, qui se tenaient a leur pre, s'arrange- rent pour empecher le Roi Jean de le passer. Le Roi. rendu fache par leurs facons, envoya ses officiers pour faire une enquete dans le village. Quand les officiers arriverent. ils trouverent oueloues-uns des habitants qui criaient et faisaient de bruit au bord d'un petit lac. Ils tenaient une anguille au bout d'une ficelle et essavaient, disaient-ils. de la noyer dans le lac. Ils en virent d'autres qui faisaievit rouler des fromages le long de la route. Ils dirent c1u'ils envoyaient leurs fromages au marche de Nottingham. Les autres habitants du village se con- duisaient dans une facon egalement ridicule. Les otiiciers partirent at moitie amuses et at moitie degoutes et annoncerent que Gotham etait un village de tous qui ne meritait pas l'attention du Roi. Mais d'autres personnes. qui savaient plus de cette histoire. dirent qu'il y avait des fous tres sages a Gotham. et ainsi la phrase Les Sages Fous vint a signifier de la folie simulee dans un intention raisonable. -Eleanor Fothergill, V A. SAINTE GENEVIEVE AINTE GENEVIEVE est la patronne de Paris, parce qu'elle sauva la ville d'une attauue par quelques hordes barbares d'Attila.

Saint Germain, l'eveque d'Auxerre. lui donna sa henediction. Genevieve. quand elle etait encore jeune. entra dans le service de Dieu parce qu'elle croyait qu'elle avait ete de-die au hon Dieu. Quand ses parents moururent. Gene- vieve alla at Paris ou les gens commencaient at croire qu'elle etait prophetesse. En 451, Attila. roi des Huns, et ses hordes envahirent la Gaule qui etait le nom ancien de la France. Il ravagea plusieurs villages et massacra ceux qui tomherent a ses mains: ei Paris le peuple voulait s'enfuir, Sainte Gene- vieve leur persuada at rester at la ville. en cleclarant que le hon Dieu voudrait les sauver. Elle avait raison. car les Huns ne vinrent pas, plus proche qu'Orleans. Parce que les Francais, les Romains et les Gaulois se reunirent pour defendre la France. ils les vainquirent et les Huns furent chasses. A cause cle l'inHuence sur le roi Clovis et sur la reine Clotilde, le paganisme a ete exile de Paris. La premiere eglise chretienne, hatie gl Paris, a ete connue par le nom l'Eglise de Sainte Genevieve.

Die kleinen Kinder lernen im Kindergarten die Spielregeln. Sie tragen in die Schule ihre Schachbretter so naturlich wie die kanadischen Kinder ihre Bucher tragen. Man lehrt sie das Spiel jede Woche wahrend drei Monaten des Jahres- Januar, Februar, und Marz. Die Kinder gehen in die Schule jeden Monat des Jahres. aber im Sommer haben sie Stunden nur im Vormittag. Im Nachmittag arbeiten sie in den Feldern, Weil die blosse Industrie die Land- Wirtschaft ist. Diese ist die Sage von der Quelle von Schach. Als Heinrich II von Deutschland ordnete, dasz man einen gewiszen Baron ins Gefangnis wirft. wurde der Gefangene zu einem Turm in der Mitte der Stadt genommen. Hier lernte der konigliche Gefangene bald Schach spielen, um die langen Stunden zu verbringen, und er wurde dafur sehr interessiert. Er zeichnete einen Schachbrett auf der Diele von seinem Kerker, und machte Schachfiguren aus Holz. Weil er allein spielen muszte, machte er seine linke Hand den Gegner von seiner rechten. Bald Wurden die Bauern, die die Tur von Zwciundvicrzig seiner Zelle huteten, fur das Spiel interessiert. Der Baron lehrte sie es spielen. Sie lehrten ihre Frauen und Kinder. Gleich erstreckte sich der Ruhm von Strobeck uber dem ganzen Deutschland. Schwarmerische Spieler kamen von allen Richtungen an. um mit den Land- mannern zu konkurrieren, und die meisten von ihnen gingen geschlagen ab. Uberall wo Leute in Strobeck fur Unter- haltung und Erfrischung gehen, finden sie Schachbretter und Figuren zum Vergnugen. Die ganze Stadt lebt Schach Von fruh bis abend, Menschenalter nach Menschenalter. -Dorothy Rogers, V B. MUNCHEN OR dem Groszen Krieg wurde Munchen die Hauptstadt von Bayern, eine Stadt von der Kunst und der Kultur ohne modernen Ehrgeiz. Es war nicht in der Handelswelt besonders wichtig. Heute ist es eine emsige politische und kommerzielle Stadt, Welche taglich immer geschaftiger wird. Adolph Hitler und seine Nazis waren fur diese Veranderung meistens verantwortlich. Da Hitler in der sudlichen Gegend geboren war, wollte er naturlich Munchen die neue Hauptstadt Deutschlands machen. Er errichtete das Hauptquartier in Munchen und viele Nazi- Fuhrer kamen da, uni zu wohnen. Dieser Einflusz der Bevolkerung liesz die Rader von der Industrie drehen. Bald muszte man Raum fur die Ankomm- linge machen: also wurden Viele Gebaude mit ausgedehnten Grunden errichtet. Sie folgten nicht den Amerikanern, die Himmelkratzer mit vielen Stockwerken bauten. Die Grosze davon war maszig, aber sie konnten sie im Notfalle Vermehren. Heute richtet man neue fortwahrend auf. Obgleich Munchen eine nolitische und indus- trielle Stadt ist. hat es auch Museen, Universi- taten und Paliiste von der Kunst und der Musik. Seine Lage in einem Tal Voll von Naturschonheiten mit den Alpen nicht weit entfernt macht es sehr anziehend. Man denkt, dasz Munchen in der Kunst und dem Vernugfen auch Wien ubertreffen wird. Das neue Munchen hat nichts Von dem alten Zauber verloren. aber ist modernisiert und erweckt geworden. Es War Weissagt. dasz. obschon Munchen zu verfallen schien, es die bedeutendeste politische Stadt werden wurde. Dieses Ver- sprechen scheint auf dem Weg' zur Erfullung zu sein. -Jean Jarmain, IV C.

Byles. Our speaker for the occasion was Major R. H. Beattie, Zone Representa- tive of the Canadian Legion, who delivered a very inspiring address. The singing of the hymn For All the Saintsn con- cluded the service. As a witness of the cere- mony, the thought came to me that the sincerity of those tak- ing active part in the program, combined with the whole- hearted co-operation of the student body was ample proof of the very deep gratitude we have in our hearts for those men who fought and died for us.

The charming fair sex of South Collegiate are just ginger peachy in our estimation. They are beautiful beyond compare- have exquisite personalities, and are interesting to the 'nth degree. Their intelligent repar- tee would be the envy of any raconteur of the legitimate stage. When we of the stronger Q71 sex are in their presence, do they bore us? Decidedly not! On the contrary, we are spell- bound by their unlimited en- thusiasm for the subject at hand. Is it a harrowing experience to trip the light fantastic with these ethereal modern Eyes? Again we say, decidedly not! Their dancing is something which, in enjoying, one can ex- perience but not explain. These few facts are not only at the time of writing but forever uppermost in our minds and hearts. i THREE GAIN I . I I I I I I CITY HONOURS Tom Parker Second in W.O.S.S.A. Marla-loll Cillnnrr Public speaking is a subject which has had more and more attention devoted to it in the schools in recent years, much to the discomfort of a great many students, for whom it is torture to give a speech in class. They blush and stam- mer for three minutes or so, and then sit down with a great sense of relief and with the air uf martyrs who have been com- pelled tu undergo a terrible ordeal. By these compulsory speeches, the contest is nar- rowed down to the usual num- ber of two girls and two boys in each division. In the Senior Girls' Semi- lfinal Contest Betty Lee, Eileen Knowles and Amy Turnbull were those to compete in the school iinals, and Junior Girls were represented by June Deacon and Madelon Gilmore. In the Boys' Contest, Tom Parker and Henry Carruthers were successful as Seniors and Gordon Kidd and Ralph Vllaugh as Juniors. A large audience turned out to hear the speeches on the final night. The contestants were evenly matched and there was much difficulty in selecting the winners. In the Senior Girls' division, Betty Lee, speaking on Has Drama Im- proved Sin c e Shake-speare's Time '? carried off the honours and Madelon Gilmore, speak- ing on The Life of Edith Cavell, was judged the Junior winner. Tom Parker was suc- cessful in the Senior Contest with the topic The Armament Industry-a Menace to World Peace, and Ralph Waugh was Junior Champion with the sub- ject The Passing of the Indian. At Central a few weeks later, South was represented by Betty Lee and Madelon Gilmore, who were successful in capturing both Junior and Senior city honours.

Parnell lin the evening oi' May Silst, 19255, the banquet hall of the South Collegiate was the scene of a very enjoyable dinner, South Sketch, London, December 6, 1935 1 1 given in honour of the gradu-i ating class of HHS5. Proniptly at 6.30. the students gathered for their last. banquet nt South and entered an colourful room decorated in blue and white. Upon sitting down to the table, ai pleasant surprise ziwaited each guestg in front of each plate was laid a clever- ly designed menu. The double pages inside were laid out with a page for the menu and a page for autographs. l'lt'lll'kI.tl l each ltfflll oi' foo-l, huinourous extracts from Shakespeare 01' Vihrdsworth were inscribed. Before the meal had progressed very lar, autographs covered the page of each menu, which will no doubt brovide pleasant memories at a future date. After a dinner, the equal of which could only be found at some country church supper, the chairs were pushed back and everyone settled at ease. Due to the regretl'ul absence of our president, Iron Fraser, the ceremonies following the dinner were presided over by Henry Carrothers. After an introductory speech by the chairman, a toast to the school was given by Toni Parker and replied to by Mr. Graham. At intervals throughout the eve- ning we were entertained by those two master musicians, who are no strangers to South, Bill Hartry and Keith Coates. The evening continued in the form of a toast proposed to the graduating class by Miss Mc- Canius. The touching words of that toast had a deep effect on all those present and espe- cially upon those who were leaving South for good. The toast to the graduating class was replied to by Eileen Knowles. The dinner was brought to a close by a fare- well speech givcn by Ernie Grove on behalf of the gradu- ating class. Tho entire credit of that evening, which will long be remembered by all those pres- ent. goes to our president, Mr. Arnistrong, and our vice-presi- dent, Mr. Ireland. If it had not been for the valuable advice given by those two gentlemen the dinner would not have been the outstanding success that it was. ,TRIBUTE PAID 1STUDENT PORTRAYS , OUR FIRST YEAR TO MAJOR BOWESL TEACHERS' DREAM Margaret illlllllllllljif The wheel of fortune spins, Around, around she goes, Where she stops, nobody knows.

A student might easily change this to the teachers side and our side. They always conflict. Even in choosing an model stu- dent, there would be some cause for argument. The teachers, in their wise matter-ot'-fact way, demand that, above ull, a scholar do all his homework leven if it does take all nighth, listen atten- tively lnever moving a geom- etry caser, and keep awake in all classroonis. They tell us that Latin verbs, the law of length. and history dates are far more iniportaut to the model scholar than the olil tin Ford rattling past the window, or the fact that it has begun to rain on the day scheduled for ai rugby gkilllff. All these and many other attributes make up the tear-her's model scholar tI'vc never seen one! J. The pupil, however, takes a non-practical view. To him, a model student is one who can spend his evenings as he pleases and yet. have the good fortune to know the word for which he is asked in the Latin vocabulary.

He knows how to cram for examinations, an'l always gets through by the skin of his teeth : yet he en- joys life, never appears to have any worries of his own, and cares not how many he gives the teacher. BIG RESPONSE TO BASKETBALL DANCES Aileen Cook. Last year South had three basketball dances, held follow- ing the games, one with Sarnia, one with Windsor, and one with the Old Boys. The three games were very exciting and were well supported by South students. The .Juniors were victorious over Sarnia Juniors in the iirst game. The dance following the game certainly was lots of fun. The music was supplied by Doug. Townsend. The feature of this dance was a tango by Mr. Dinsmore and Dick White. The next dance was held after the Windsor game, in l l I 1 w l l l l l J 1 l i l i l Peggy Ellwood First year. There was one -one whom everyone viewed with surprise. From his size, he might be taken for a Middle or Upper School student. My hopes mounted rapidly. Per- haps First Year was growing up. Then, dashing around a corner, I almost tripped. Look- ing down about the level of my knees I saw a poor, innocent First Year who had tried vain- ly to get out of my way. My high hopes took a long skid out of sight. There was one of the usual size of First Year- ers, the smallest of human be- ings. Enough of that, how- ever, for no doubt we in our turn were the school. First good points. One of the they possess is enter into the spirit of things - to be a help, not a hind- rance. At the girls' party they took their initiation in the best of spirits. They knew not what dark fate was approach- ing them, but they certainly enlivened the party. Then, school spirit. It has so many different meanings: to be quiet in auditoriumg to turn out to the school gamesq to help the teacher in classy and to aid in all the numerous things that raise a school's standard. First Year has tried to do them all. They are by no means the worst offenders in auflitorium. They delight in watching games. Anywhere you may see a First Year valiantly cheering for Tom, Dick and Harry. I don't know, but I think they're just as good as those about to leave school. When you add up everything, you can see we've got a First Year to be proud of, and one that will be a real credit to the school in future years. So here's to you-First Year. despair of the Year has its niany virtues the ability to which the Windsor team won the W.O.S.S.A. title. At the dance Jack Callahan's orchestra played. The basketball season was brought to a close by a game between the Old Boys and South Junior and Senior teams combined. After this game, the nnal dance of the season was held. Elmo Johnston and his orchestra provided the peppy music. These very informal dances were enjoyed by the students and we are all looking forward to them again this year. South Sketch, London, December 6, I935 THE PERFECT SEX We, the girls of L. S. f'. I., have been asked to writc our opinion of the boys ann what is the matter with them. lVell, here goes, boys,--no hard feel- ingsfjust the plain truth! Take it and like it. First of all, we should like to say what lovely dancers the boys are. Oh, yes, we really mean it. They are such egootl dancers that it is impossible for a girl to go to a dance in san- dals. If she has the courage to wear them, she is limping: for the next week or so. Next, we should like to com- ment on the good looks of all the boys. They are all so haml- some. They either have Roman noses lroamin' all over theirl facesl or otherwise. They al- ways have their hair cut, combed, and ,'-.generally walk like young men of eighty. This would not be complete without saying'somethin1,: about ,Q '-5' 96 rv 4- ..., their manners. We all agree that they are well mannered. Have you ever been in a hurry at one-twenty-nine and dashed around a corner to collide with one of the weaker sex? tnat- urally I mean a boyl. Of course you have --and what did he do? Why, gave you a dirty look and said in the nicest of tones S-l'-R-A-M. Oh my, but they are so well mannered! As for letting' a lady pro in or out of a door Iirst, why the boy always does does what? He walks very nicely to the door and then, when he sees you are nearer to it than he is, he rushes at breakneck speed to open the door--but not for you! His one purpose in life seems to lie to uct into that room Iirst. UI' course, there are exceptions and we certainly appreciate them. .-Xtler you liaye read this, don't you think that the boys at our school are perfect?

Formerly, in our school, there has been no stimulus for participating in intra-mural sport, other than just the desire to play. This year the suggestion has been made that interest in these activities be increased by the awarding of points. These would be given for belonging to a team in baseball, basket- ball. volleyball, tennis, or bad- minton. Of course, the mem- bers of a winning team would receive more than a team which is not so successful. A referee of a game, or the captain of a team would be awarded extra points. Even in drill periods, co-operation and completeness of uniform would be recognized, Record would be kept of the number of points earned by each girl. If a girl showed herself to be outstanding in the majority of the activities sponsored by the Athletic As- sociation, she would earn enough points to entitle her to wear a crest in recognition of her athletic ability. Under no conditions could one be ob- tained in less than two years, so that those who earned one would fully deserve it. At the present time, the only girls in the school who are eligible for a school crest are those who excel in basketball. By this system, all the girls in the school are at least able to' win a crest, although the requirements are high enough to make them something to be valued. This idea, as far as we can discover, is received with great TENNIS CHAMPIONS, l935 LIVELY INTEREST SHOWN IN TENNIS TOURNAMENT Mary Fraser This year's tennis tourna- ment was perhaps the most successful one South has ever had. The entries were very numerous and all the playel'S made a good showing. There was great enthusiasm both among the players and the spectators. Of course, every entrant could not win, but we all hope that next year there will be another chance to dis- play the ability of South's future tennis stars. Standing' Ileft to right! A. Gorslon, V.

Already this year, greater in- terest has been shown in the sports. It is certain to arouse keen competition within the school. Girls who are already good in sports will have their ability recognized, while those who :ire less interested will be aroused to take part in more activities. Another way in which interest might be increased would be to have a wider variety of sports. For instance, a golf tournament, such as the boys held, could be organized by the girls. There are probably just as many girls who play golf in the school as boys, if not more. But they have never had a chance to show their talent. Then perhaps we could have a swimming meet. There are many girls in the school who are good swimmers who do not excel in other sports. This would give them the opportu- nity to enter into something I they really enjoyed and receive credit for it. The fact that we have no swimming pool of our own pre- sents a very real obstacle to Icarrying out this proposal, but possibly the obstacle would not prove insurmountable. These are just a few ideas that might improve our girls' sports programme which would be, we believe, eagerly accept- ed by the girls of the school. lf you like the idea, say so! INTER-FORM BAS Last ycar's form III C, under the leadership of Miss Hilliard, I . . organized a Junior tennis tour- nament. The whole form ini- mensely enjoyed it and keen rivalry was shown among the I participants.

They carried it od' very nicely but, not satis- tieil with a few of the laurels, they put on a second skit, The Tragedy of the Land of Mob, a very witty and thoroughly enjoyable play. Ruth Blane, a first year youngster, amused the audi- ence with a recitation. Then B, Govan and M. Cum- ming sang two duets. Follow- ing this was the Third Year presentation in the form of an amateur broadcast from an orphanage. It certainly caused a lot of laughter. Next, six 5 ' girls amazed the audience with I an exceptionally fine exhibition uf tumbling. The Fourth Year acted Cock Robin. The unique combina- tion of Cock Robin and Mae West' went over big with the ,g'irls. Following this was a Fashion Parade in the form ofa March of Time, the Fifth Year con- tribution. They had everything from kiddie-cars to bathing beauties in it. All the girls except the Freshies then retired to the gymnasium. These First Years were led there in forms. They were a colourful picture in their green rompers, with red roses, and hair tied in knots. Blinclfolded, they went through the rigmarole planned by the Initiation Committee, who cer- tainly worked hard and well. Then Miss MacFarlane blew her whistle, the signal for lunch. At approximately 11 o'clock the familiar notes of the Na- tional Anthem told us that the girls' party was over for an- other year. It was once again a huge success, thanks to Miss Mac-Farlane and Miss Hilliard and their capable committees who worked unsparingly. 6 South Sketch, London, December 6, l935 5e1i0fTeamMf1'Q00d5h0wi'1s Even though we did not win the city championship in Senior Basketball for the year 1934-5, I feel quite sure every member of the team derived a great deal of pleasure from all the games. Our team finished in second placeg this fair measure of success was due to the en- thusiasm, interest, and effort each member of the team put into her work. As there were only live members of the old team left in the school, a new squad had to be formed. The forwards were exceptionally accurate, the guards blocked and intercepted passes very well. Their playing shows clearly the excellent training of Miss MacFarlane, their coach. The members of the team, reading from left to right, were: 1. Joan Smith. Joan was a very valuable member of our team. Due to her height, she was able to capture rebounds easily, and as a new forward she showed considerable prom- ise for future teams. 2. Marian Cox. Marian was a regular on our line and played centre forward. Last year she was our very able and much loved Captain. Every member of the team was inspired to do all she could when Marion was on the floor. She was easily the best forward in the series. The accuracy of her passes and the lightning speed of her movements were a delight to the spectators. We deeply re- gret having lost her to Tech. 3. Olwyn Lloyd. Olwyn, al- though not a regular on the forward line, never failed to give her best when she was called upon. Her passing and shooting were not exception- ally good, but she did a great deal for our morale when our spirits were low. 4. Viola Ling. Viola was one of our regular guards. Her guarding was very effective. Frequently by intercepting a pass, she prevented the oppos- ing team from scoring. Viola will not be with us this term. 5. Dorothy Banninga. Doro- thy played as a substitute on the guard line. Her calmness in the face of a crisis proved to be a real obstacle to her opponent. , djs- . I ' ' -L .mn rd -, . V x .I. Smith. M. Cox, O.

Unfortunately, Joan will not be with us this season. 7. Jessie Clarke.Jessie played fuard on our line-up. Her play- 'ng was not very spectacular but she was fast and intercept- ed passes cleverly and conse- quently proved herself an effec- tive and valuable member of our team. She, too, has joined the ranks at Tech. S. Ruth Carling. Ruth was a substitute guard and served last year for the first time on a Senior team. Her playing showed considerable promise. 9. Betty Shurman. Betty also served her first year on a Senior team last season. Be- cause of her speed and accur- acy she won a place on the forward line. We were all proud of Betty's good showing. 10. Jean Wood. Jean was a very valuable member of our team. She was unquestionably one of the best guards in the city series. Her unusual abil- ity to jump overcame her han- dicap of height. She was without a doubt the pivot player of the guard line. We are sorry to say that Jean too has left us this year. 11. Nancy Santo. Nancy played the position of regular l 'forward and was a very valu- able asset to our team. VVith- out Nancy, Marion Cox woulfl not have been nearly as suc- cessful with her combination plays as she was. Nancy was very adept at feigning a play in order to trick her guard. We are very sorry Nancy is not with us this term. 12. Margaret Stein. Margaret played on the forward line, having made a position there after serving on first and Sec- ond year teams. Although last year was her iirst year on the Senior squad, she played as a regular during the last part of the season. Her lack of height is a disadvantage, but her speed and accurate shoot- ing make up for this handicap to a great degree. Her inter- est in the team was at all times unfailing. i CENTRAL! SAYS SOUTH Mary Fraser Great was the dismay and anger of South students when they discovered their goal posts in a very lowly position on the rugby field. It seems that Cen- tral won a rugby game, for the lirst time, and we1'e feeling very gay over the victoy. They were, in modern phraseology, going to town. South's im- mediate reaction to this out- rage was merely spiritual: but Central will soon be made to pay. Of late years there has been more rivalry between South and Central than with Beck. Perhaps the fact that Beck is in a different section of the city and some distance away has contributed to this. The general feeling of the student body of South for Central is a friendly one. VVe consider Cen- tral a formidable rival in sports and academic attain- ments: but we certainly thought they were good sports- men. Concerning these schools it is certainly a case of faraway fields look green. After sound- ing the opinion of South stu- dents toward Central students it was learned that not a few of our South fellows go for the Central girls in a big way. Now don't get puffed up, Central, for it is also a well-known fact that the Cen- tral boys are intensely inter- ested in our own co-eds. Taking everything into con- sideration, we will have to con- cede the fact that Central is a great school and worthy of our highest esteem. JUNIORS ENJOY lContfnued from Page 1l games in the auditorium. The games this year took the form of tournaments in table tennis, checkers and crokinole. They were won by Gordon Winder, Herbert Tripp, Vivian Need- ham and Harold Birmingham, respectively. Refreshments were served during the evening in the lunchroom, which was dec- orated for the occasion. I think everyone who was there will agree with me when I say that this was one of the best Junior Parties South has ever had. NEW WINNERS IN BADMINTON Last season proved to be a very successful one as far as lfadminton was concerned. Both those who had played before and those who were just begin- ning to pfay showed great en- thusiasm. Two nights a week were devoted to the game Ulltlfil the guidance of Miss MacFar- lane and Miss Hilliard, who kinilly gave up those evenings to our pleasures. In March a tournament was held. It was divided into two sections--a regular champion- ship tournament and a consola- tion tournament for those de- feated in the first round. This meant that both beginners and more seasoned players had a chance to gain recognition. The consolation tournament was won by Dorothy Thomas and Muriel Grant who defeated Mary Fraser and Joyce Stauf- fer in a very close match. The championship was won by Libby Pegg and Anne Gor- don when they eliminated Elea- nor Fothergill and Margaret Cumming in a hard struggle. Concern as to the outcome of the tournament was not limited to those taking part in it. Even non-players showed keen interest in the outcome of these matches.

I I I I I I Sooih Slfeich, London, December 6, I935 COLOURFUL SETTING FOR RUGBY DANCE Perhaps one of the nicest things about last year's rugby season was the final scrimmage I in South's gymnasium. In honour of the boys who so ably upheld the name of their school on the rugby field, one of the final dances of the school yeai was given. Throughout the fall term the rugby dance was awaited with eager anticipation by the mem- bers of the school. It certainly satisfied to the uttermost our fondest dreams and it seemed as if everyone was there dressed in his Sunday Best. In a rugby setting-goal posts at either end and the yard marks along the sides- the boys proved themselves just as proficient at tripping the light fantastic as at giving a gr-od account of themselves on the gridiron. The music, which was supplied by Doug. Townsend and his orchestra, made us want to dance on and on, but unfortunately the hands of the clock raced around to 11,250 and we had to wend our way home. May we then express our sin- cere appreciation and congratu- lations to the Boys' Athletic Association, to whose efforts we owe the night of December 21, 1934. -Barbara Chantler.

The elimination round was so arranged that the forms of each year played together, with the exception, of course, of fifth year, which had only one team. To add spice to the games, all the referees were chosen from third, fourth and fifth YEZIFS. In second year, ZA was suc- cessfulg 3D led the third year listp and -LC came through with flying colours in its year. The fifth year team was elimi- nated in the first round. In the semi-finals, IZA played 3D in a very keen struggle, 2A coming out the winner. Then the remaining teams, 4C and -IB, played OH. Here again the teams were evenly matched, and the game ended with a very low score, 4C winning by one run. Perhaps the most interest- ing of all was the final game between 4C and 2A, with a decisive victory for 4C. The batteries of the two teams were as follows: -IC: Pitcher, L. Slattery, Catcher, M.

If you have not, you should get it from the school library as soon as possible because it is really worthwhile.

She describes the right way to sit, stand, walk and workigiving inter- esting methods of learning a good posture habit and curing a bad one.

Eliminated in the Semi- Finals-Coach Freeman's Team Turns Tables on St. Thomas. After four unsuccessful at- temps at a Junior W.O.S.S.A. championship title, Coach Free- nian's hopes were realized when the Juniors returned home with the coveted trophy tucked safely under their belts. Alex. Hofstetter, t h e Galloping Gopher , having captained his team through the season with but only one defeat, at the hands of the powerful K.-W. squad, brought the first VV.O.S. S.A. Rugby title to South Vol- legiate and also to London. Vonsidered green at the first of the season, even by local supporters, they soon showed their ability t.o handle any threat which might stanzl in their way of a championship. A great deal of credit for the team's success was due to the steady, plunging, little quarter- back, Tom Woolley, who gen- eraled the team from start to finish in a manner equal to that of Bobby Coulter, an'l to the consistent booting of Abe Frith: however. the tackling and blocking of the line was the deciding factor in their victory. Oust K.-VV. 14-12 Taking advantage of a home crowd and field South rolled up a 13-point lead on a rain- soaked gridiron. In the return game in Kitchener a slightly over-confiilent London team found themselves up against a v a s t l y improved tricolored squad. South was decisively beaten 12-1. This clean, hard- hitting outfit was the second best contender for the cup and provided the majority of South's opposition. London Gains 1-Point Lead, 9-8 Playing in another drizzling rain, they proved themselves real mudders. Snatching an early victory from a cocky Blue and White team, they downed the visitors by a close margin: game ended 9-8. CAPTURE W. 0. S. S. I-I.

From 20 yards out Keene tried for a placement but it went wide for a single point. For the next few minutes London seemed to have an ad- lvantage in the play, but Irwin broke through fast and inter- lceptcd a lateral pass in centre tield. He was tackled by Wool- ley after a run of 25 yards. Orchard and Snyilcr plunged for 8 and Louch booted a field goal. Several fumbles recovered again by St. Thomas, and a long run by Frith on the receiv- ing end of a punt paved the way for London's second point. lAt the end of the first quarter.

When South's Senior hockey team defeated Tech. in the second game of their schedule this year, they broke a losing streak that had continued for some years, The team this year fought through their group only to be nosed out by the fast Tech. squad in the final game of the series. Mr. Dinsmore's squad played smart hockey and deserve credit for a very enjoyable season. The players are also to be congratulated on the manner in which they practically fin- anced themselves, each person contributing for every practice. The first game was a fast, hard-fought one which went to our old purple-and-gold clad rivals, Central, 2-0. In the next game, the team provided an upset by defeat- ing Tech. As Tech. had previ- ously beaten Central, it now ticd up the series. The boys outlasted Central in the return game and won by a 2-1 margin. The group championship was at stake when South and Tech. met in the final game. At half- ,time South led 2-1, but Tech. came back in the last half to score three goals.

After many hard practices under the coaching of Mr. Dinsmore, the squad took the ice against their most bitter rivals, Central. The game was close, ending in a tie, 2-2.

A week later, the return game with Central was played, but this time South took the lead and kept it. The game resulted in a 2-1 victory for Central.

THAMES VALLEY GOLF COURSE SCENE OF FIRST TOURNAMENT The members of IIIC are proud of their champion golf player, Ian Innes. The first annual golf tournament of the L.S.C.I. was held at Thames Valley Golf Course on Septem- ber 28th. This tournament, promoted by Mr. Freeman and Jack Woolley, was the initial golf tournament in the school and was a decided success. Entrants were very enthusias- tic and the entry of twenty- eight will undoubtedly be in- creased very much in 1936. l l At the linish of the regular IS-hole round. Doug. Parnell and Ian Innes were tied with the lowest scores of 87. In the deciding hole to determine the winner, Innes won the match. one up. In Class B, which included boys having all previous scores ovcr 45 strokes for the 9-hole course, the low- est score turned in was 95, by C. Cole. Humour was supplied by the star foursome comprised of Ron Chapman fclub breaker, club loser and ball loserl, Don Filmore, Dick Wlhite and H. B. Dinsmore. It was suggested that next time this group in- clude an adding machine in their equipment. The prize winners were: Class A, Ian Innes, 87, Doug. Parnell, 87, B. Miller, 939 Class B, C. Cole, 95, W. Kearns, 96, G. Martin, 100, D. Case, 101, T. Owen, 1053 High Gross, H. B. Dinsmore, 1-10. Runner-up, J. R. Chapman, 138. Well, folks, another year has rolled around and South Col- legiate is expected to turn out another hard-fighting, spirited group of griflders as an entree for Senior W.O.S.S.A. rugby. Although the prospects for a good line were rather slim, Mr. Dinsmore collected a few of the boys who were turning out and had them in shape when the first whistle blew, opening the starting game with Central on October -ith. The game was a real hard tight for South. but they struggled through to victory, 7-0. On October 10th. the second game was played, this time with Sarnia Collegiate on a very wet and muddy gridiron at Tecumseh Park. This slowed South's fast backfield but they showed themselves to be cap- able mudders. The pigskin was handled as if by professionals -Sarnia gathered up a fumble behind South's touch line, giv- ing them the major score and the game, 5-1. The third game. another tough battle in Sarnia. was played oH' on October 25th. The blue-and-white team defeated South by the narrow margin of Il-2, and this gave the Tun- nel City the series. Sarnia admitted it was the hardest game of the series. The South backfield had been changed around owing to the absence of Jack Kennedy, stel- lar halfback. The score might just as easily have been 3-2 for South, because South played a brand of rugby that was hard to beat. The fourth and linal game of the series was played at Te- cumseh Park again, on Novem- ber 6th. This game gave to South the city series and the McHale cup, when they defeat- ed Central by the score of 18-10. All I can say for this game is that every member of the squad played his best brand of rugby. Players: Harry Kimber, Keith Caspell, Don McKenzie, Stew Clarke, Ad Shaw, Bill Par- sons, Abe Phillips, 'tWalt Raimer, Ian Symington, Don Fillmore, Bud Mitchell, Bev.

I O South Sketch, London, December 6, I935 JUNIORS WIN FOR THE FIFTH TIME Junior Rugby this year start- ed with a bang. Practices be- gan early and nearly fifty boys turned out. With the help of a few of last year's regular play- ers, Mr. Freeman built up a light but snappy rugby team of championship calibre. In the city series, South proved to be the strongest team. They were scheduled to meet Beck C. I. in the first game on the former's own Field. The game was a wide open one in which our Juniors swept over the far more experienced East End team with a 6-3 win. In the second game, South met their old rivals, Central,r at South, and beat them with an overwhelming score, I3-0. The third game clinched the grou p championship when South once more beat Beck on the latter's field in a hard- fought but equal battle ending in a 3-0 score. The Anderson Trophy will remain a part of the South Collegiate for an- other year. This is the fifth consecutive time in which the trophy has matle South C. I. its home. The last game of the city group was a wide-open game in which our rivals scored their first points of the season. The game ended in a 2-all tie. With the winning' of the city froup, the Juniors met 'Wood- stock in the iirst of the VV.O. S. S. A. playdowns. This series was based on total points to declare the winner. The first game was held in VVoodstock, in a cold drizzling' rain, which, however, failed to slow up the garnet-and-gray's speedy style of play, but rather seemed to help them in an endless march towards VVoodstock's goal-line. The total score was 26-O, which included every possible method of chalking up points. In the return game South found a greatly improved Woodstock team to battle with at Tecumseh Park, but again won, with a '7-0 score. This Igame ended the Woodstock series with a total score of 33-0. This win entitles the Juniors to a home and home series with Kitchener. Let's go, Juniors! The VV. O. S. S. A. cup is just around the corner. VVe extend our hearty congratula- tions on your success to date, and wish you luck in your com- I ing battles.

BOYS' ATHLETICS WELL SUPPORTED Winning athletic teams cost money to support, and as South's teams lived up to for- mer reputations last year, a great deal of expense was in- curred. Our Junior and Senior rugby teams and the Junior hockey and basketball teams were all city champions last year, necessitating out of town trips. In this respect, our Athletic Society of last year deserves credit for their expert financ- ing of these trips. They car- ried on in spite of adverse conditions and always came through with the necessary funds. We hear talk on the subject of where all the money goes, but only a small per- centage of the financial outlay is ever made known to the public in general. The Athletic Society Executive of this year is very fortunate indeed to have such good conditions re- garding the finances of the Society made possible by the good work of last year's oifi- cers. I,et's get behind the Soci- ety this year and give it a real helping hand. -G. Dowdell, VA. JUNIOR RUGBY TEAM I Back Row D. Maidens, J. Walker, A. Newton, C. Element, E. Jackson, A.

The South Juniors opened the season at the Technical School and defeated the well- coached outlit by a 20-13 score. Playing at home for the first time, the Juniors continued their winning performances by outclassing a young hut hard- lightingr Beck team 17-11. South's next adversary, Cent- ral, proved to be the biggest obstacle in their path for the championship, but they were finally overcome by virtue of a last-quarter rally and South emerged with its third con- secutive win, 17-10. The next three city games were all taken by South, but not without a struggle. South took a high scoring game from close with a thrillinu' 110-lt' win at Vcntral.

Freeman SENIORS ARE OUSTED BY TECH. The Senior team of last year made a creditable showing. Mr. Freeman was faced with the task of building up a new squad. Several members grad- uated from the Juniors and when the season started Mr. I-'reeman had a well-balanced team. The opening game with Tech, played on Tech's gymnasium, resulted in a 17-12 win for Tech. The next game was with Beck. on South's Hoor, Beck linding themselves on the short end of a 22-13 score. Central, our old rivals, next visited us anil South came out on top with a 17-11 verdict. Once again Tech defeated us only this time on our own iioor. This game was the best game of the season, and Tech only in the last quarter pulled ahead to win. South played their return game with Beck but this time lost out. It was a close struggle with the score 16-15 as the final whistle blew. South lost to Central, 14-12, in the final game of the series. The team was unfortunate in the last two games, but they worked well under the coaching of Mr. Freeman. However, last year's Juniors reached the W.O.S.S.A. finals and we hope that this year they will repeat their perform- ance only in senior uniform. The line-up: Forwards: D. Green ICapt.J, K.

ECHOES FROM THE DRESSING ROOM Who hooked the laces out of my shoes? Come on, Miller, give me my towel so I can use it once. Hey, Keene! have you got .in extra sock 7 These are just a few of the questions which haunt the dressing-room night after night. When there are forty or iifty fellows in one small dressing- room they sure can raise one big racket. If it wasn't for Miller's passion for somebody else's towel and Mitchell's in- clination to remove the laces from the nearest shoes, the locker room might be an enjoy- able place. Many times you wish you could get dressed in peace, but just get away from that clatter for a few days and you wish you were back. When practice is over and both Junior and Senior teams reach the dressing'-room at the same time, it's just one big Push and shove to get some of the hot water before it is all gone. Incidentally, when every- one is on the way home you can always see McKenna tying up the last shoe lace while either Mr. Freeman or Mr, Dinsmore wait patiently at the door for His Majesty to remove himself from the dressino-- room. 5 If anyone is really curious, they should drop around in the direction of the gymnasium and listen to George Dowde-ll's ve,-- sion of Annie's Cousin Fannie -I am sure that it would be well worth your while, -Doug. Parnell, VA, OF THE YEAR Mr. Ireland Does Good I Work i T' ' ' ' I Just what the Senior At Home would amount to was a .natter of considerable concern. What with the flu epidemici ind colds, things looked ratherl discouraging. But it is sur-N prising how quickly studentsi recuperate when a party is approaching. So it happened that on the evening of January ' 25, 1935, a large number gathered in the auditorium, sniliiing, or otherwise, ready for the big event of the year. After Mr. Ireland had brought things to order, the accordion player led a grand march, headed by Ernie Grove, master of ceremonies, and his partner, Nancy Santo. This just seemed to set everybody in their high- est spirits. I The gymnasium took us coin- pletely by surprise. Never be- fore had we seen a more strik- ing ballroom! The orchestra stand was exceptionally well set off. The dark blue, light blue and white streamers came out from it in fan shape over the entire gymnasium. I I I -- We had looked forward to Al. Keene's orchestra since his visit to the school a few we9kS before. He turned out to be even better than we had ex- pected. The Pierce Twins sang and :lid a couple of spectacular dances, accompanied by Dick White in his usual rhythmic manner. Anne Gordon and Dick's duet, Flirtation VValk, pleased everyone. Several nov- elty numbers added variety to the dancing. Even Mr. Ireland found great delight in making the girls' balloons bang. A tem- pora1'y stand had been set up in one corner, where ginger ale and cookies we1'e enjoyed dur- ing the dancing. As favours, the girls received a small box of l-Iunt's chocolates, but we noticed most of the boys got more than their share of them. On the whole, the evening was delightful and I am sure those present will be eagerly awaiting this year's. Every senior should strive to make this At Home better than before, though we admit this a pretty hard record to beat. We are indebted to Mr. Ire- land and his competent staff, who had worked for so long a time to make this the success it was. I -Mary Thomas, V B. SOUTH'S ORATORS FOURTH FORM CLAIMS PROVE WINNERS lCuntinued from Page II Fred Norwood, winner of the challenge, was a close runner- up in Juniors, to give South an almost clean sweep in the W.O.S.S.A. finals for the dis- trict. In the final contest for the boys, held at South, Tom Parker was given second place for all Western Ontario, and later. at Woodslee, in a one- room school with temperature . . . lfor further details apply Mr. Urlinl, Madelon Gilmore was judged runner-up for Junior Girls. Our orators did very well this year, and South is proud of their achievements, but a great deal of the credit must go to Miss McCamus for her splendid coaching of the speak- ers. Let's keep up our good reputation for Public Speaking, South, and break all records next year! IContinued from Page II els: and we feel that they de- serve the heartiest congratula- tions the school may tender them. IYC is again victorious! This time it was the first to complete the sale of Students' Activities tickets. Although there was a good deal of com- petition, our position in the lead was never seriously threat- ened. Notwithstanding the fact that no prize for this achieve- ment has been forthcoming, we feel that we have all gained something by this test of our eiiiciency. IVC holds the unique posi- tion of being the one form in the school having a banner. Leonard Wray was responsible for this excellent piece of work. The banner is fastened over the blackboard at the front of our room, Room 13, VVe hope, before the year is out, to be able to mark many achievements on it, so that it may become a symbol of IV C's enterprise. -Barb. Kains, IV C. South Sketch, London, December 6, I935 I 3 THE MODEL TEACHER Helen Trace i Do not be surprised if, when you walk into one of our class- l rooms some day, you seel everyone chewing gum audi talking. while the teacher reads the comics. or just patientlyl waits for the noise to cease. For this is Utopia not what the word Utopia usually im-- plies, but our own special L. S. C. I. brand of Utopia, broughti about by our teachers. They suddenly became perfect over, night, and this is the result! For instance, suppose the teacher sees a student at the' back of the room, chewing' gum. Does she order him tol dispose of it in the basket, as' of yorc? Not a bit of it! So, that he won't feel lonely and embarrassed, she gives every- one else a stick. Behold teacher and class now chewing, in unison. What a friendly? feeling prevails! And how wc love our school work! Exams are now a pleas- ure, whereas they used to be a, nightmare. Remember that' grand and glorious cram thei night before and that terrible' feeling the next morning, when we found we didn't know any- thing anyway'! Remember how we gazed lilankly into space, while the brilliant student! across the desk scratched his pen for an hour or two without , stop? Sweet memories? Yeah! But now things are differ-i Bill Pace ent, thanks to our teachers. We'll get through whether we study or not, for they have a new marking system. Everyone above fifty is marked on a basis of how much they know, as before, but those below fifty are marked on the basis of what they don't know. So you whose marks used to come to the grand total of nine, now tind yourselves with ninety-one. These are model teachers! Perhaps the best thing yet about them is that they don't give detentions. Instead, they sentence you to tive minutes hard labour playing noughts and crosses with them at the blackboard, or send you to the corner store to get an ice cream cone, and then conveni- ently forget what they sent you for. ln conclusion, a word to the First Year. YYc no longer say it with flowers. VVe say it with a new funny paper or the latest edition ol' Punt-h. '1'ou'lI find that when your teacher is buried in funnies hc's much more likely In for- give you for not doing your homework than he was when there was nothing to do but stand and glower at you, But he was not a model teacher then! STUDENTS FAVOUR GRACLE PARTY Un Friday night, February 22nd, a very successful gather- ing was held for those who had worked so hard on the produc- ,Q li! tion of The Oracle. It began with a sing-song, ably led by Bob Miller in the absence of Ernie Grove. Dick VVhite as- sisted Bob at the piano. After a half an hour of sing- ing, those who wished to dance assembled in the gymnasium, where an orchestra, made up of students of the school,unde1'l the direction of Jack Callahan, was in attendance. For those who did not wish to dance, there was a variety of games in the front of the auditorium which were enjoyed by everyone who participated in them. Lunch was served in the gaily decorated cafeteria, which showed the hard work of the committee in charge. The dancing and games continued until eleven-thirty. With the singing of God Save the King, The Uraclc party was over for another year. lf more of the students real- ized what a marvelous time we have at The flraclc party, Miki Valvert would find The Oracle sales lioundsg and the editors would not have to plead so often or! so pathetically for articles. lt is to be hoped that with the point system for articles, ad-, vertisements. and sale of Uracles, which was inaugurated this year, more people will be able to attend the most enjoy- ablc party uf the year. EX-STUDENTS ARE HONOURED The students who have won the distinction of having their Gladys Steele increasing hy leaps and' names engraved on South's Honour Tablet have by their daily conduct exemplified the fundamental principles of greatness. This has not been achieved by a single effort, but by the accumulative result of chivalry shown in all activities and contacts of school life. This year, at an impressive auditorium ceremony, three names we1'e added to those al- ready enrolled on the tablet. Doris Blackall's name was presented by Miss MacFarlane who, in a few apt words, acknowledged South's appreci- ation of Doris' cheerful, sunny influence exercised in girls' activities and other depart- ments. No committee and no party was complete without her presence. Mr. McNeil put forward Bill Pace-'s name as eligible for the Honour Tablet, and reminded us that in leadership, sports. and all activities,Bill displayed always the spirit of keen, clean sportsmanship. Mr. Allin presented the name oi' Owen Cousins anal recalled how unseltishly he had given ol' his talents both as a musi- cian and as l'1ditor-in-Chief of the Oracle. Bill Pace, on behalf of the three ex-students, thanked the stati' and school for the honour paid them. Although this reward merit- ed by these students is the highest honour that South can bestow upon them, we feel that no honour would ever be worthy of them.

I. Page Sixiyffive +4I -W l31 AUSTRALIA! II'rIllIiluucil Yi-um l':Iu4' 21+ The depression brought a general realization of the great moment of wool production, and the full co-operation of Federal and State God- ernments is now assured to Australian sheep- raisers. Other factors colour the prospect for wool- growing. Although most of the land available for pasturage is now in use, the clearing away of scrub may yet open up new acres. ln the Artesian Basin in the northert part of New South Wales fa region devoted entirely to breeding sheep for wooli the number of sheep per acre increases from west to east with the rainfall. This demonstrates the need for con- siderable moisture, and gives rise to the con- jecture that irrigation will also increase the area available for sheep-raising. Too much moisture, on the other hand, causes foot-rot and other diseases among merinos, and the raising of Romney Marsh sheep, an English breed adapted to moist pasturage, may be found profitable in some coastal regions where it has not yet been introduced. New woolen fabrics and an artificial leather made from wool have recently been evolved by science. and promise new outlets. New market- ing opportunities have also been presented in recent years, notably in Japan. The invention of substitutes for wool has not proved as great a detriment as had been apprehended. Improved prices are encouraging wool-growers, and the outlook for the wool industry is indeed bright. Next to wool, wheat is Aust.ralia's most important export. Victoria and New South Wales possess the main wheat areas. although South Australia and Western Australia are also important producers. Professor Edward Shann, of the University of YVestern Australia, believes that the wheat export industry may some day outgrow the pastoral industry in financial weight and inter- national reputef' Other experts hold the same opinion. It has been pointed out that only about one-twelfth of the land which could be used for wheat-growing is now devoted to it, and that improved methods of wheat raising will increase the yield. The average yield per acre has already been greatly advanced. and as the population grows holdings will become smaller and tillage more intensive, so that the yield may some day approach that of the wheat-growing countries of Europe, although such a prospect is rather remote. Development in this direc- tion, however, is certain to continue. It is a sig- nificant fact that since 1901 the export produc- tion has been increased by more than 150,000,000 bushels. :Continued on Page 1' Page Sixty-six .v.v.v.w.v.w.-,,.,.v.v.v.v.,.i.v.'.'.V.v.,.v,,. .w.v.w.v.v. ,,.,.w.,,.,. ,w.v.

This is due, of course, to the depressed condi- tion of the wheat market. and the wheat industry will probably advance as general world conditions improve. Early in December, 1934, the Australian Wheat Advisory Council recom- mended that the quota should be fixed at 120,000,000 bushels. if a new wheat agreement between the major exporting countries is reached. Which quota will be accepted remains for the future to decide. By-products of the staple wool industry are the mutton and lamb which form a part of Australia's meat export. More important than these is the export of beef, in which the Com- monwealth is coming to rival South American countries. Queensland is the largest producer among the six States, and Great Britain and Belgium are the chief buyers. Distance and the problems of transport once handicapped the industry, but gas refrigeration has made it pos- sible to carry chilled beef half way across the world, and the trade is now growing rapidly. In October of this year 119343 the Stuart Star sailed from Sydney, bound for London with the largest shipment of chilled beef which has ever left Australia. At a luncheon on board the vessel Mr. Main, Minister for Agriculture in New South Wales, declared that there is much country in that State capable of producing beef, SOUTH C. I. and that, with foresight and appreciation of the position, there will be great expansion in the industry. Dairying is the principal industry of the coastal belt. Beginning in the south, it rapidly displaced other occupations, and has come to figure largely in Australia's export trade. It is now carried on for the most part in conjunction with agriculture and sheep-raising. Dairy cattle in Australia thrive in the open throughout the greater part of the year, and in this respect Australia has an advantage over Canada, where the cost of fodder during the long winter months reduces the profit of dairy- men. At one time England's huge import of butter from Denmark and Sweden prac- tically controlled the price of the Australian article. The position is now almost reversed, and Australia's export of butter and other dairy products to the United Kingdom has multiplied its value, and is holding its own against all com- petitors. All of Australia's exports have more than doubled their value since the turn of the century, but dried fruits and dairy products have shown the greatest increase. There is still room for expansion. An extension of the co-operative system in dairying has been recom- mended by experts, and while this will facili- tate production, Empire trade agreements assure a continued and growing market. Not only does Australia export large quan- tities of canned and dried fruits, but she also sends valuable shipments of fresh fruit and lCont.inueil on Page 7-in Page Sixty-nine ff ff Club House Olives v if , Nat1ona1 Cab Ltd. imported and paeiced by i METCALF 7700 1- Gorman, Ecker-t8c Co.

Principally due to the great care shown in grading and packing. Australian pears have displaced Californian pears in the British market. and have been bringing nearly fifty per cent more per case than the Californian product. Apples from Tasmania and Victoria command high prices in Great Britain. where they rival the apples from British Columbia and the Niagara valley. In 1933, Australia established a new record for exports of raisins and Sultanas to the United Kingdom. and the total of 43,000 tons of Australian raisins imported by the homeland was by far the largest from any indi- vidual source of supply. Nearly twenty per cent of the currants and dried apricots imported were of Australian origin. The United King- dom is also Australia's most important external market for canned fruits, and this branch of the industry grows stronger every year. The 1934 interstate conference of the Aus- tralian Apple and Pear Export Council was held at Sydney early in October. The fifty delegates attending were growers and shippers represen- tative of all the States. The need of much closer co-operation with New Zealand in the regulation of the apple trade with Britain was stressed by the chief speaker. and it was sug- gested that the move for co-operation between Empire producers ofered a solution of the dif- ficulties. The provision of more adequate cool storage was also discussed. The outlook for the fruit industry was thought to be encour- aging. Australia produces a wide variety of fruits, including pineapples and bananas from tropical Queensland, and the market is ever expanding. In 1922 Australia produced some 2,500 tons of sugar above local requirements, and the sur- plus has rapidly increased during the succeed- ing years until, in 1931, an excess of 291.500 tons was produced and sold in Empire markets. This phenominal increase has been brought about entirely by white labour. In the early days of sugar cultivation in Queensland. natives from the Pacific Islands. called Kanakas, were imported in large numbers to work upon the sugar plantations. But many abuses crept into the system, and it was ended shortly after Federation by the initiation of the White Aus- tralia policy. With a process of natural selec- tion and gradual acclimatization to supply an increase of White labour in the north, there is hardly any limit to the expansion which may take place, particularly if irrigation can be called to the aid of the industry.

Y V U , . g ls .K . Ctlheed 1'6Sr1Gll?3GO5EgLEE1I1g tfa1c1iIiEiSs sfdf Australia's forests are principally hardwood, although afforestation of pine promises a greater production of softwood timber. The Commonwealth produces a great variety of hardwoods, most of which belong to the family of the eucalyptus and are quick growers. Her annual export reaches a high figure and the demand increases year by year. In reality Australia has a very limited area of commer- cially valuable forests in comparison with the large size of the continent, and the conservation of the forest resources is a vital problem. The Forestry Bureau of the Commonwealth Govern- ment co-operates with the States' Forest Departments in the control and development of wooded areas. The activities of forest oflicers in managing the judicious thinning of the forests and in the prevention of fires, and the Government conduct of extensive research work have been important factors tending to the con- servation and improvement of the timber asset. Gold mining to-day is vastly different from what is was in the time of the gold rushes, and mining in the Golden Mile is becoming more expensive every year as the shafts sink deeper. Many other fields have been quite worked out, and the poppet-heads of the old mines stand forlorn against the sky. Relatively little gold has been obtained in the last ten years, and Australia's most valuable mineral products are coal, copper and iron, while silver, zinc and opals are also found, and the tin mines are only SOUTH C. I. mining, since the market is almost unlimited. Australiais secondary industries, while not of such great importance as the primary indus- tries, are growing steadily. Each of the primary industries has a corresponding secondary indus- try. and the manufacture of woolen fabrics, the canning of fruits and the production of iron and steel wares employ many hands. Extension of hydro-electric power will affect the future of manufacturing in Australia, and the prospect is full of encouragement. DOMINIONS CLOSELY ALLIED The people in the various conquered prov- inces in great empires of times past were all akin in their desire to break away from the tvranny of the oppressor. But the people of the self-governing dominions of the British Empire of to-day are one in their allegiance to the mother country. For this and other reasons there is a close kinship between Australians and Canadians. Canada and Australia are the two senior British dominions. The Empire spirit binds them together. When. in August. 1914. war flamed in Europe and Great Britain was drawn into the struggle, both Canada and Aus- tralia. were prompt to give assistance, sending large contingents of troops, and continuing their support throughout the duration of the war. Facing a common enemy, the two young nations were brought together and the kindred feeling was intensified. fContinued on Page S73 Page Eighty-three TRAINING COUNTS LONDON'S SECONDARY SCHOOL Pupils are making good with the London Life.

Canada has delegated Senator Arthur Meighen as her official representatiy'e at the celebrations of the Victoria and Melbourne Cen- tenary, and his visit should contribute to the kindly relations. The Inter-Empire Sports have also fostered good feeling, and twelve Canadian schoolboys are at present competing in Aus- tralia and New Zealand. The two nations, Canada and Australia, met together at the Imperial Economic Conference in Ottawa in 1932. Their representatives meet continually at Empire colloquies. Bonds of blood and spirit, trade, social and political rela- tions link Canada and Australia across the intervening ocean, and the passing of the years will only serve to strengthen the tie. saws onslgyltvt Elay batit l sanctuane magnifiquc ou ses cendie ont ete place Son sanctuane pendant la Rey olution a ete iuine et le cenflies de la pationne et du sauyeui de Pails a ete biule dan la Place de Cieye Dans le Pantheon il y a beaucoup de belle peintuies qui celebient se bonn actions Les hiancais iey eient sa mem miie et elle est unc des saintes le plus umees de la Fiance lean Wlcflladdeiy V B IVCIXIIQTEAI.
