Note and Comment By the Editors Let us take this opportunity of thanking Mrs. Carr-Harris for the very great service which she has done in looking after the short-story club. She has had to work under almost insurmountable difficulties-little time and the interference of other activities to mention a few,-and has succeeded nobly. Also a great deal of credit for the success of the section is due to the kindness of Mrs. Thor- burn, who so kindly consented to judge them. 1- 'A- if This year we are trying in every way possible to give our advertisers a square deal. So, when next you buy, patronize our advertisers. me -A- -A- The credit for this fine magazine, which we present to you this year, goes to the fine editorial staff which has co-operated to the fullest extent. ul- ak if A school magazine, in our estimation, should aim to be a radio announcer of all that goes on in the school. If we have fulfilled that ideal, by portraying every side of school life, and have in- terested every student, we feel that our magazine has served its purpose. 1- at an We wish to acknowledge most gratefully Mrs. Roses kindness in donating five dollars for the best short story and general contribution. al- 1- 'k The number of poems which have been con- tributed this year is simply amazing, and I hope you will not think that the ones not published are not worthy of it, for that is not so. lt is simply that we have tried to pick out a representative choice of the entire field. 1' 'A' 'k Our thanks to lack Walker and his competent staff, who have so ably put over the campaign which enables us, with the circulation, to put over the Oracle. Good work, lack! xi' i' il' In this year's cover. we hope that we have something unique, something to be proud of. Never before have we had so difficult a choice when it came to picking the cover, and we think you will like this one very much. 'le t 1: Unemployment OST people seem to think that in the past few years unemployment has been at its worst. Some even look upon it as the root of all our economic evils. Alarmists are loudly de- nouncing the Machine Age, with its advent of 12 new inventions, claiming that it has displaced thousands of men. However, let us look back thirty years and see what conditions existed then. No unemployment statistics were kept, but that does not mean there was no unemployment. There was no relief orga- nized by a sympathetic government but practi- cally every family was burdened by some derelict relative or friend. The destitute and out-of-work, who today would clamor for relief from the government, sought shelter with their more fortu- nate relatives. Thus the number of unemployed was shielded from the public eye, while today those seeking relief are very much in evidence although no more numerous than before. The Machine Age, instead of displacing men, as the alarmists claim, is opening up many possi- bilities for them. Countless new industries have come into existence in the last thirty years. The automobile, aeroplane and radio have created new industries whose possibilities are not yet fully realized but which are still broadening in scope. These industries are absorbing thousands of men who would otherwise be out of a job, and recent inventions may well lead us to believe that many other fields will soon be discovered which will also demand their quota of men. -Graeme Cameron, V A. An Appeal for Dramatic Talent UR former Governor-General, the Earl of Bess- borough, who was greatly interested in acting, is known to have said, A nation is incom- plete without a national drama. Cannot the same be said of a school? For a few years past, some of the members of our staff have worked very hard to produce plays, with little or no response from the student body. Why is this so? ls it because we have no one with dramatic talent in the school? l think not. Perhaps it is because not enough students have an opportunity to show their ability, as usually the cast of any play is chosen from the select few. We might suggest, then, that when the next dramatic production is begun the students be given a chance for try-outs for the various roles. This system has proved very successful in other amateur organizations, and should work well here. A Dramatic Society would provide a means for the students to study acting and stagecraft. So, then, come rally round, ye would-be Bernhardts and Barrymores. The play's the thing! -Gordon Kidd, IV C. fContinued on page 585
