LOYOLA COLLEGE REVIEW 29 See Naples and then die ' A proud saying... But I say now “See Quebec and live forever!” —Kirby, The Golden Dog. GEORGE L. MILL. Seven years ago a small boy claiming the ancient capital as his home town and the Quebec Commercial Academy as his former seat of learning joined the class of ''Special Latin. He was known to us as George Mill. To-day the dignified philosopher George L. Mill takes his leave, and the student body of Loyola College are quite prepared to go into mourning. George has established an altogether enviable record here. He is an excellent student, and one of the most versatile athletes the college has had in recent years, truly a rare combination. He is of a retiring disposition and a man of few words. In fact one might safely say that his speeches—few and far between as they are—are noted for their terse- ness and brevity. He has been the main-stay of the ‘advance guard” of our foot-ball team for several seasons. He is known to be one of the pluckiest men in Interme- diate Rugby.

Some shout him, and some hang upon his car To gaze into his eyes and bless him. — Cowper. LORNE PARKER. Our scientist “par excellence” de- parts this year leaving behind him a trail of scholastic triumphs anyone might well envy. Besides frequently leading his class in the monthly honour list, he invariably carried the day in the field of mathematics, thus testifying to the certainty of success in his future career of Science. Never an ardent devotee of the time-honored institution of ' C.O.T.C., he turned his hours to more practical channels during the past year when he and his fellow mates gathered together upon sunny after- noons to measure the geometrical exactitude of parallellopipeds, whilst oft and anon, the stilly silence would be rudely disturbed by the staccato Companee—Shun of the zealous Sergeant-Major putting the “Буез” through their paces. No need to wish him success, for of that he will have a generous share due to his great capacity for work, his natural abilities, and last, but by no means least, his high ideals and pleasant disposition.

Eddie needs no introduction to Loyola — students. He is known to everyone of them, and all who know him cannot but be im- pressed by his charming personality While in no way slighting his splendid capabilities, it might be said that it is through this personality more than anything else, that he has so won our confidence. Many and varied have been the offices he has held, and, be it said to his credit, in everyone of them he has proved himself a true son of Loyola, who, in all things, places self- interest last. It is with certain pride, mingled with regret that Loyola bids him farewell; pride for his achieve- ments, regret for his departure. He is going from us in body, but in spirit he will always be with us and we shall hear that infectious laugh ringing through the corridors. We bid him farewell with the hope that his splendid qualities may win him such a place in the world as they have among us. Intercollegiate Debate; 725; Prefect, N.R.S.

CECIL MacNAUGHTON. During his four- year sojourn at college he has been an ardent supporter of the Maroon and White, never missing either a football or hockey match in which the college teams have participated. He has earned for himself the reputation of being one of the most conscientious and ambitious students of his class. His punctuality in attending lectures and C.O.T.C., his great love of philosophical discussions, his oratorical ability, his glowing eulogies and bitter invectives, will only make his absence more pronounced. We entertain no doubt whatever with regard to his career, because Cecil, ambitious, straight-forward апа рег- severing, will not be discouraged by the obstacles confronting him in life. We take this opportunity of extending to him our sincere wishes for his future success. | | Class Hockey, ”23, XC m Class Baseball, '23, '24, 725; Inter-Class Deba

30 LOYOLA My life is one demd horrid grind. —Dickens. BASIL С. PLUNKETT. Тһе stu- dent body of Loyola College will suffer an irre- parable loss on the 8th of June through the departure of a dapper youth from Sarnia known to the world at large as Basil G. Plunkett. Basil came to Loyola from the Almonte High School in September, 1921, and has been very prominent in all college activities, social and otherwise. He has two pet idiosyncrasies—cultivating a mous- tache and concentrating on tennis. He possesses a keen sense of humour, which, in addition to his true Irish wit, has contributed largely to the great pop- ularity which he enjoys. While Basil has been with us for the short period of four years, he has manifested his sterling qualities in more ways than one. We are genuinely sorry to see this sin- cere and earnest student take his de- parture. Basil is one of the most forec- ful speakers in our Mock Parliament and is an amateur actor of no mean ability. We feel very confident that “Bas” will prosper іп whatever path of life he chooses to follow. He carries COLLEGE REVIEW “-- with him, іп leaving his Alma Mater, the sincerest good-wishes of each and every Loyola student. Advert. Staff, L.C.

Les belles actions cachées sont les plus estimables.— Pascal. GERARD PATENAUDE. This quiet, unassuming youth came to Loyola from St. Mary's College in September, 1924. During his short sojourn in our midst he has always shown a great interest in class, as well as college activities. “Раб” arrives at nine o'clock sharp іп the morning. Never before, very seldom after. Pat is noted for his ruddy com- plexion, engaging smile and for his ability as a lacrosse player. He is a steady worker and, in short, possesses many fine qualities. We are sorry to see him go and we regret that we did not know him sooner. He is one of thë savoir faire type, cool, calculating and imperturbable. He possesses an equanimity of temperament which combined with his resourcefulness will always stand him in good stead. Lacrosse, '25; Radio Club, '25.
