THE MUSE g The Stunt Group under the excellent management of Nora Cot- ton has done yeoman service this year. They put their Christmas play on at the and will take part in the junior and senior stunt contests there in March. The Handicraft group has had as yet only two meetings, but under the direction of Betty Fisher and Miss Sutherland will likely accom- plish much in the arts of interior decorating, and we hope they will be free to make the favours for our coming banquet. The Swimming groups, junior led by Eleanor Roberts, and senior led by Kay McCrea have had several meetings at the The junior girls have taken part in the swimming meet, and we hope that more girls will enter the senior meet in March. nuns The Glee Club under the able leadership of Miss Russell have taken part in the club programme and helped with the new school song which won second place at the competition in January. We are hoping to hear from them again in the near future. -GLADYS KIPPEN, MLC. LEAVES Along a path, beneath the trees, There lies a pile of fallen leaves. Both beautiful And wonderful, As they rustle gently 'neath the breeze. The wind swoops down and slowly lifts The leaves about, in lustrous driftsg And to and fro They gently blow, Most beautiful of nature's gifts. In spring their tiny buds peeped thro', In summer. were of greenish hueg Till, summer gone And autumn on. They fall, to show the sky's deep blue. -HELEN SEWEL, ZC. L 133 I

THE MUSE CAMP Tapawingo-which is Indian for Place of Joy-is the name of the camp. which is near Parry Sound on Georgian Bay. And it cer- tainly is a Place of Joy to the girls from the Toronto high schools, who camp there together after examination time in the city is over. There is everything to make any kind of a girl happy-a morning dip to pep you up, a longer swim in the afternoon. hikes, games of baseball and volley ball, boat trips, canoeing, interest groups such as nature study, handicraft, reading and dramatics, and then in the evening the campfire or perhaps some other interesting program- a stunt night or a masquerade. Some of us perhaps will remember longest the quiet time in the morning that each camper spends alone. Just a few moments set apart for thinking. Or perhaps some of us will remember the even- ings around the campfire as we watched the stars come out or when we joined hands about the slowly dying camp-fire to sing Good-night and Taps , We remember these times the longest because it is at such times. that we come to understand better the magic spell of camp which makes life more interesting, more worth while and more oi' an adventure for us. Where the dark forests clasp the shore, Leaning low. Where the soft breezes watt bird lore. To and fro. Where the ripples break and beat. Where blue sky and forest meet, Where the air is fresh and sweet Let us go. -A. E. S. MAIDS OF MALVERN INTEREST GROUPS The Social Service group under the leadership of Lorraine Lush and Miss Cunningham have done splendid relief work this year. At Christmas they sewed and filled over fifty large stockings, and through the splendid response of the pupils have sent five large bundles of clothing to the Neighborhood Workers for distribution. .lust now they are busily engaged in sewing babies' layettes for a needy family, whom they have undertaken to look after till summer, sending a hamper of food each week. Throughout the Winter more clothing would be gratefully accepted. The First Aid group with Edith Martin in charge and Miss Gt-otlinan as instructor have completed five of their interesting les- sons in home nursing. One of the meetings will be open to the school ni which a doctor will illustrate the method of resuscitation. It is to be hoped that the pupils will respond heartily to this worth-while meeting. 14321
