gzaigman C Thirty-one jockeys eagerly waited for the starter to sound September 9th. This day had dawned bright and sunny and was just the day to hold a derby at DIercy Downs . W'hat a race? It was a photographic finish. The score- board showed that President , ridden by Shirley Klopp, came in first. that HVice-Presidentu with Betty Btlae Devine as jockey placed, and that HSecre- tary and rr'I'reasurer , ridden by Flargaret Lang and Atlary Jean Devine respectively showed. The Initiation Day handicap was not an easy race to judge, for all seemed to be riding Sportsmanship -the horse which led all the way around; There was the English Assembly race too, in which the jockeys were leaders of the literary chase. Colonel C expresses the anxious hope of these jockeys when he says that he wishes to the Seniors 0f ,41 all the winners possible in the future. Imj!

Iigzazy During the past year the intellectual workshop of the school was the library. Here the students assembled to reflect upon their problems, to conduct the research work required, and to pursue their own Original studies without the supervision of their teachers. The ability to find and to use books is one of the main attributes of an educated person, and many a future scholar of 31ercy got her acquaintance with books in our school library. Page 42
