By this avenue, more than by any other, they will be admitted to the best opportunities of business or professional lifeg and, by the addition of industrious habits they will be enabled to accomplish most, whether they work for themselves or enter the employ of others. But, in addition, it will be found necessary to practise what is commonly known as thrift. It is said that James J. Hill, the great railway magnate was once asked what he considered the most important element of success, and his reply was: Are you able to save money? If not, drop out, for you will lose. Thrift may be regarded as a substantial and vigorous growth of one's 1'esources, and a development of progress in the individual which benefits himself and others alike. R. H. TURNBULL. Hon. Pres., Jan.-June, 1928 To the Teaching Staff and Pupils of Paris High School: At this time when you are preparing the third number of the Year Book may I congratulate you upon the excellence of the previous Annuals and ex- press my confidence that this the third number will be an even greater success. This confidence is based upon the fact that in all departments of its activities the Paris High School not only maintains its creditable record -of former years but its history is one of progressive achievement. This progress must be very gratifying to the faculty and is also a matter of which as a com- munity we may be justly proud. To the pupils especially I extend congratulations upon the opportunity afforded by our splendid equipment for laying broad and deep the foundation of a strong moral, mental and physical development upon which to build a superstructure of character and citizenship. In striving for and obtaining an education the student not only acquires a knowledge of facts and figures which have been arranged in convenient form and presented in text-books but in the process he or she undergoes a mental development not otherwise obtainable during the earlier years of life and which will later prove to be a most valuable asset. No one can master one subject or perform one task without becoming better fitted to master or perform another and it is this development which forms one of the greatest benefits of an education. All students are not endowed with the same mental equipment, some are quicker than others, some are more practical than others, but all benefit by concentrated efort and the extent of the eiort is the measure of the benefit. It would appear also to be a mistake to decide that the student who is not quick at school should drop out early and thereby forfeit all the benefits which accrue from a thorough course of study. Each stands in need of the greatest possible mental development and the boy or girl who fails to make the fullest possible use of our educational institutions enters upon his or her later years materially handicapped. f C. A. McCormick, Hon. Pres. Sept. to Dec. 1928 5 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 'E f A i!'r. - 7 iifl nf ' 42 if-fr Q za 45 as :--- ,, L UNIVERSITY MEN IN BUSINESS t'It is being remarked that the City of London, England, is becoming an annex of the universities since so many graduates now find employment there. This connection between commerce and education is more pronounced in the United States. In London it appears that the heads of large businesses re- strict consideration to first-class honors men. The subject in which they graduated is of quite secondary importance, as the first-class is held to be evidence of intelligence and capacity to profit by subsequent training. A general recognition of the value of higher education in commercial life would be very welcome. It is evident that in Great Britain, Canada and the United States the university graduate is entering commercial life in large numbers. The English practice, noted in the quotation, of preferring men of high scholarship is most interesting. To a college man it seems thoroughly sound in theory, and it would appear that business leaders find it sound in practice. Teachers might well commend this practice to their students. Toronto Globe, Nov. 3, 1923. Many ot' the pupils of the Lower School imagine that they have obtained a good education if they go to a high school for a year or two and then attend business college. A careful consideration of the above article, and also the advertisements and other writings in this book will convince these pupils that true education comes only from years of hard study and that the good posi- tions are held by those who are willing to spend much time in preparation. I wish to draw your attention to the advertisements of the schools and universities in the Year Book. Many of our former students attend Toronto University, our debating and oratory is really under the auspices of the Uni- versity ol' Western Ontario at London, and our principal is a graduate of Queens We urge you to read the advertisements of these universities and to write their registrars il' you wish further information. Robinson and Brantford Colleges have always trained some of our graduates. This year Robinson Business Vollege has offered two special scholarships to celebrate the opening oi their school in Paris. Read all these advertisements, especially the one telling about the advantages of Paris High School. We students are very grateful to Mr. Mc-Cormick for his matriculation prize. We hope it will encourage our pupils to work harder, and that it will become an annual donation. We also thank the merchants and business men of this town and elsewhere who have so kindly made our Year Book a success by their advertising. Betty Burt. Editor-in-chef 6 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Graduates WILLIAM BRUCE ADAMS This man thinks too much, Such men are dangerous. Bruce was born at Toronto October 27, 1909, at 4 a.m. fThe only time he was up so early.J When he became of age his parents, Mr. and Mrs. George Adams, sent him to Keele St. Public School to obtain a few moments of peace. There, Bruce's brain-power developed remarkably. He passed his entrance before he was 12 years old and at once attended Humberside Col- legiate Institute. While there he was noted for athletics, receiving some medals and cups. He excelled in baseball. In 1927 he attended Paris High School during the fall and spring terms, spending the winter months at Humberside Collegiate Institute. While here he took lower school botany and Zoology and such upper school subjects as enabled him to complete his course for a first-class certificate. At present Bruce is attending Toronto Normal School. Our country is lucky to have such a brilliant student to im- part knowledge to the younger generation. B. B. ERIC CYRIL APPS Some are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon 'em. -Shakespeare. September 21, 1910, marks the beginning of Eric's walk in this great highway. Brantford claims the honor of being his birthplace, but Mount Pleasant cherishes most of his boyhood days. VVhile very young Eric's great ambition was to seek knowledge, so we find him attending the public school at Mount Pleasant. In June of 1923, he was successful in passing his entrance and the following September he graced Brantford Collegiate Institute with his presence. Fortunately Eric recognized the error of his way and saw the advisability of attending a High School of a high calibre, consequently in the fall of 1926, he put in his first appearance at P. H. S. During the two years that Eric attended Paris High School he succeeded in obtaining his complete junior matriculation and eight subjects of his Honor Matriculation. His academic standing was always very high. On various occasions also Eric exposed himself to sport activity of a kind. He filled a space in the rugby line-up, he sometimes starred for fifth form's hockey team and he played at basketball very enthusiastically. Baseball was also one of his weaknesses, and had it not been for some distressing circumstances at very critical moments his team might have won the league. Possibly Eric's greatest hobby was stamp collecting and to that he devoted much time. Eric is now attending the Dental College at Ann Arbor, Michigan, where he is continuing his studies in order that he may, before long, rank among the professional men of the country. We wish him every success in life. F. W. P. MARY STEPHENSON MACMILLAN BLACK I rise and eat and work and sleep Just like all other people. -MacLean. Mary, elder daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. Black was born in Brantford on the twenty-seventh day of October, nineteen hundred and eleven. Residing at this time quite near a public school, she early in life attended kindergarten. At the age of five Mary moved with the family to Paris where she began her school life. In nineteen hundred and twenty-three she was successful in passing her entrance examinations. While in High School Mary served as secretary of the Literary Society, also on the Year Book staff. She was one of the four members of the debat- f7 I PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK ing competition at Woodstock and Owen Sound, her ability as a public speaker was again proved when she came second at the oratorical contest held at Stratford, third in the contest held at Brantford and fourth at Hamilton. She graduated in nineteen hundred and twenty-eight with complete junior matriculation and seven upper school subjects. At the present time she is attending Business College in Brantford. H- F- L- BERNARD LUTHER BROWN Hang sorrow! care will kill a cat And therefore let's be merry. -Withers. Bernard, or Bernie as his friends and associates called him, is the only child of Mr. and Mrs. B. L. Brown. He was born in Paris on March 15, 1910. Bernie spent his early adolescence attending the Paris Public School. In 1922 he passed his entrance and entered High School in the same year. Here he spent six very pleasant years and took part in a number of varied activi- ties. He played softball, basketball and was a member of the school hockey and rugby teams. As regards the literary side of his High School career, he was on the staff of the Quill in the spring of 1927, and on the finance committee for the 1927 Year Book. In 1926 Bernie passed his Junior Matriculation and then spent two more years in the Upper School acquiring additional knowledge to help him along the road of life. Last year Bernard graduated and is now attending the School of Practical Science where he is taking a course in Chemical Engineering E. C. A. ARTHUR LANGFORD TEDDER CULLUM Blessed is he who takes himself seriously, For he will create much laughter. Arthur, only son of Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Cullum, was born in Norwich, England, in November, 1909. VVhen a year old, he came to Canada with his parents and took up his residence in Paris. He spent his early days keeping out of mischief until in 19223 he passed the local entrance examinations with honourable mention. From that date on t'Art. gradually rose from obscurity to fame. Always of a studious nature, he was among the best scholars and also took an active part in all school life, being several times on the executive of school organiza- tions. Art was also an athlete. He was a prominent member of the track team and competed at London in 1926. Besides this, he played hockey, base- ball, rugby and basketball with considerable skill. He graduated from our halls of learning last June and became a live-wire reporter of the renowned Brantford Expositor. He is at present cruising along very nicely and de- lights in rounding up sarcastic Mads. Art wants to grow a patriarchal beard, heaven forbid and Allah forfend! In conclusion we extend to him our heartiest wishes for a happy and prosperous future. T. A. VV. DORIS VELMA GARDNER And ne'er did Grecian chisel trace A Nymph, a Naiad, or a Grace, Of finer form or lovelier face! Scott Doris, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Gardner, first saw sunlight on August 16, 1911, at the city of Brantford. At an early age she decided to seek a different abode and choose Gay Paris. Here she played with the other children until the call for school sounded. Doris with a number of her play- nizrtes went to the Public School. From the Public School she graduated in IJL4. D'uring her four years at Paris High School Doris held different offices. Last year Doris proved to be a distinguished debater. It was with good sportsmanship that she entered all school events. Needless to say we miss her a great deal and wish her every success at Day's Business College, Brantford, which she is now attending. H. M. C. 8 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK EMILY ETHEL HOWARD Shadows of annoyance never come near me. Emily, the elder daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Williaiii Howard, was born in Paris on April 19, 1909. At the age of six years she entered the Paris Public School, passed her entrance examinations in 1923, and attended the old High School for one year. She, along with the rest of the students, moved to the new school. In 1928 Emily graduated with her Junior Matriculation. She was always a good sport, played on the softball team and on Field Day too, was successful in carrying OH some of the awards. This year Emily is taking a hair-dressing course at the Marvel Academy. Toronto, and we all wish her the best of success. D. V. G. HAZEL FLORENCE LAURIE She can be as wise as we, And wiser when she wishes, She can knit with cunning wit, And dress the homely dishes. Hazel, the only child of Mrs. and the late Mr. Robert Laurie, was born on a farm near Drumbo. June the 20th, 1903. She received her early educa- tion at the Richwood school, and moving to Paris at the age of eleven, passed her entrance from the Paris Public School, in 1923, with honors. Hazel graduated from the High School in 1928 with complete matriculation and Upper School English. She is at present remaining at home, and we all wish her every success in whatever she undertakes. H. S. B. MARION EUPHEMIA McCAMMON She is steadfast as a star, And yet the maddest maiden, She can wage a gallant war, And give the peace of Eden. flVIarian-George Meredithb Mr. and Mrs. J. P. McCammon received a very valuable Christmas gift on December 18, in the year nineteen hundred and ten, in the person of a baby girl-Marion. During the first five years of life Marion played with her dolls, just like the rest of the girls in the neighborhood, and agreed with her big brother on everything but the subject of cats. As Marion had at least twenty-five yards to walk she started to Central School at the age of six years. In the year nineteen hundred and twenty-three she graduated into High School where she remained for five years. During that time Mickey as she is known to her P. H. S. pals, was the life of every form and more than once visited Form 1B along with the rest of us. She was critic of the Literary Society for one term and filled that office very well indeed. Marion is graduating this year after completing her matriculation with the exception of Latin. She is spending this year at home, but hopes that next year may see her at school again preparing herself for a business career. I.M.S. 9 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK INEZ ELAINE NEWELL To those who know thee not, no words can paint! And those who know thee, know all words are faint. One snowy morning about three o'clock on the seventh of February of the year nineteen hundred and ten, a bonny baby with flaxen hair and deep brown eyes, was born to Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Newell. Inez Elaine was the name they chose for their only daughter. Inez spent a very happy childhood on her parent's farm, playing with her younger brothers. There she acquired a strange liking for snakes and other creeping things which later proved an asset in P. H. S. zoology class. Her favourite haunt was the cemetery across the road and she still delights to tell of the ghosts which she has seen walking along the Woodstock highway. Her school life started in nineteen hundred and seventeen at the Stone School, where she steadily progressed, passing the entrance examinations in nineteen hundred and twenty-three. Inez was always a favourite at P. H. S., her sunny smile and keen sense of humour brightening those around her. She took a real part in school activities. The Literary Society was delight- ed many times by her beautiful solos as well as Oh Canada, which she played for a year as pianist of the Literary Society. Another of her gifts is public speaking. She represented P. H. S. at three different times in W. O. S. S. A. debates and each time was a credit to her school whether in success or failure. She won two silver medals and a book of poems for oratory. During the spring term of '28 Inez proved very competent as president of the Literary Society. Her chief delight in athletics was putting the shot, although she could never seem to succeed in winning the laurels from the Burford girls at the meets. Last year she tried eight U. S. examinations and was successful in all. She is now taking a first-class teaching course at Hamilton Normal School. We all join in wishing her the greatest of success. C. A. W. ISABELLE MARGARET SINCLAIR Happy am I, from cares set free, Why are they not all contented like me? Isabelle Margaret l Mike J Sinclair was born in Paris on December 5th, 1909. Her earliest years were spent in harmless mischief. At the age of seven 'tMike began her primary education at the Central School, passing her entrance with honors in 1922. The following autumn Isabelle started her High School life in the former school on the hill. During the next few years Mike was prominent in the Girls' Athletic and Literary Societies. In the former she held the offices of president and secretary-treasurer. In the latter she was pianist and twice secretary. Mike did all in her power to advance the 1926 and 1927 Year Books, and was on the editorial staff of both. Mike was an A-1 sport and to say that she will be missed is to put it mildly. She graduated in 1928 with honors, having completed her Lower, Middle and Upper School subjects. Her plans for the future are uncertain, but we wish her success anyway. Mike may be seen any morning dashing over the Hats to the general office. M. S. M. B. GLENN ARNOLD WENTWORTH Tis said for every why he had a wherefore. Glenn Arnold Wentworth, the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. George Went- worth. was born on February 26, 1912, in Paris. He attended Paris Public School, and passed the entrance at twelve years of age. He then entered Paris High School, and after an attendance of four years, he graduated in June, 1928. Glenn was a very popular student and an expert softball player, having the happy faculty of knocking home-runs. He has served both on the school 10 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK hockey and track teams and is also an ardent rugby enthusiast. His hobby is collecting stamps, but he has several other interests, the chief of which is gardening. At present Glenn is managing the staff of the Bank of Toronto, Paris. He leaves us with our best wishes for a happy and prosperous future. E. C. G. ELLEN AGNES WISHART A clever wee lass, wi' a lang pedigree. Rock-a-bye baby was the song which issued from the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Wishart, Curtis Ave., after April 28th, 1910, for that was the day that Ellen Agnes arrived. She was the last of the Wishart family, having three older brothers and an older sister to wait on her. At the age of seven, Ellen started her school life, attending the South Ward School for a few years, and later the Central Public School. Here she was fortunate in winning a fire-prevention medal, awarded for the best essay written on fire-prevention. All through Public School Ellen came first in her classes, and when she was thirteen she passed her entrance examinations, winning the Board of Education prize. The following term she attended the old Paris High School, moving up to the new High School in the spring. During her five years here, she was a great help to the school, not only in her high standard of examinations, but also in the Literary Society, where she was prophetess. She was secretary- treasurer of the Girls' Athletic Association and took an active part in the W. O. S. S. A. debates, upholding our school against Wooclstock, St. Thomas and Owen Sound. Last year Ellen won the bronze medal at our senior oratorical contest and the year before the gold medal. She graduated in June with eleven Upper School subjects. At p1'esent she is attending Toronto Normal. We understand that Ellen intends to teach Domestic Science.

To the students it is a bright spot in the year, and to the parents it is a time of exaltation, for it never fails to inspire those older to see the young people striving to take advantage of the opportunities so bountifully provided and thus equip themselves for the struggle of life upon which they are soon to enter. Principal Butcher occupied the chair, and said the chairman's address would take the form of a series of announcements. First he thanked the Daughters of the Empire and the Women's Institute for the prizes provided by them for the senior oratory contests, and he was hoping they would be able to do so again for a similar contest to be held January 25th. He also thanked Mr. R. H. Turnbull, honorary president of the Literary Society for the spring term of 1928, for his generous contribution towards the expenses of issuing the 1927 Year Book. Personally, and speaking for the school also, he appre- ciated the co-operation of the Canadian Legion, who have offered a trophy for competition in oratory to take place on Empire Day of each year. And last, but by no means least, the chairman announced with marked pleasure that Mr. C. A. McCor1nick, honorary president of the Literary Society, had con- tributed a prize of one hundred dollars to the student in form four showing the greatest progress, the object being to encourage the lucky student to con- tinue at high school. This announcement was received with very hearty ap- plause by the audience. The junior oratorical contest was announced to take place Jan. 11th, and mention was made that as yet no prizes had been donated for this important event. Following these announcements Mr. Chas. McCausland, chairman of the management committee, presented prizes and medals as follows: Short story prize winner, Terence Whitbread, Dorothy Elson and Dorothy Flanagan fequall were honorably mentionedg athletic medals-Senior girl champion, Isabel Burtg junior girl,, Edna Salesg junior boy, Andrew Thompson, inter- mediate boy, Geo. Aitking senior boy, Joel Ebyg first Penman scholarship, Murray McGillg second Penman scholarship, Bernard Johnsong third Penman scholarship, Dan Herliheyg and Board of Education prize, Kathleen Danford. Mr. McCausland rather expected a prize for the winners of the softball game last summer, when the Board were victors, but the supply gave out too soon. D'r. Barron, chairman of the Board of Education, then presented graduation diplomas to the following: Mary S. M. Black, Doris V. Gardner, Emily E. Howard, Hazel F. B. Laurie, Marion McCamm0n, Inez E. Newell, Isabelle M. Sinclair, Ellen A. Wishart, Bruce Adams, Eric C. Apps, Bernard T. Brown, Arthur Cullum and Glen A. Wentworth. Dr. Barron followed with a few words of congratulation, and said while it might seem the finish for those receiving diplomas it was really the begin- ning of their life work. He said it was said the German student was asked at graduation What do you know, the American, What can you do, and the British What are you, and said it was what we are that decides our destiny. Character and influence were the attributes that counted, and he was sure the students leaving Paris High School would uphold the best traditions of the British Empire. Miss Ellen Wishart delivered the valedictorian's address, and it was up to the standard the school maintains. It contained many expressions of appre- ciation of the continual help of the teachers, of the pleasant associations in the classroom and on the athletic field, of the high type of the young people 13 I 1 Q 'A-I i I' .Q . la -n' l' 1- I' -11. -I f LE.

She concluded by saying as a graduating class we leave these familiar halls and lose contact with many who are nobly filling our places. We lose our places and connec- tions, but the memories grow more precious, and our affections for you and the school will never pass away. We do not bid you a long last farewell, for that would be too mournful, let it rather be the old, kindly, aiectionate part- ing, good-bye and good luck. This was followed by Sussex by the Sea, but if the men of that famous province are as slow arriving as the boys were, the scrap would be over before they got there. The girls started well and the chorus, when reinforced, ended vigorously. Then followed the play Ulci on Parle Francais, put on by the students and directed by Miss Cowan. It was well acted and kept the audience in laughter throughout. The various parts were taken by Betty Burt, Marguerite Bringloe, Phyllis Telfer, E. Gould, Fred Pascoe, Joel Eby and Helen Churchill. There are many accomplished vocalists and instrumentalists among the students, and a vocal duet by Betty Aitken and Kathleen Danford, and piano duets by Pearl and Alberta Holmes and Mary Kenerson and Dorothy Mc- 5Ccl?'1iiiCc58 were much appreciated.-W. G. Pickell in Star-Transcript of Dec. t , J . The Post Commencement Concert, Dee. 5, 1928 A worthwhile innovation this year was the repetition of the play and the musical numbers of the Commencement program, along with other attractions, on the following Monday night. A crowd, which filled the auditorium until the ultimate square inch of standing room was occupied, testified to the popu- lar demand for such a concert. The piano and vocal duets which had been so much appreciated on Com- mencement night were heard again with no less pleasure. Additional music was provided both before and during the program by Mr. Jas. Tate's new electric phonograph. It was unfortunate that the huge crowd somewhat dampened the beautiful tone of this machine, but those who were not too near enjoyed the classical standard selections played. Another novelty was the presentation of two folk dances by the senior girls, who we1'e prettily garbed for the occasion in old-fashioned dresses of pastel shades. The dances were very pretty to watch, and showed the result of long practice under the capable direction of Miss Rodman. The third form girls gave a club-swinging drill, which also showed evident training. An item, of which Paris audiences never seem to tire, was the pyramid- building by the senior boys. All of them from the shortest to the tallest, showed great agility as they climbed into various formations, or rolled and dived across the mats. The players who had presented ici On Parle Francais with such evident ability on Friday excelled themselves on Monday. Each member of the cast seemed actually to live his or her part, and that is the highest test of histrionic ability. Much credit is also due to Miss Cowan, who so ably directed the staging of this production. We are also much indebted to Mrs. Adeney who so kindly consented to come and favour us with some selections with her orchestra. After the crowd had dispersed, many of the entertainers enjoyed an hour of. dancing under the supervision of Miss Brett and Miss Rodman. And so, with this celebration, a very successful entertainment was brought to a close. 14 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Valedictory Address Mr. Chairman, Members of the Staff, Students, Ladies and Gentlemen,- Your invitation to deliver the valedictory address of the graduating class of 1928, is an honour I fully appreciate, at the same time I realize the re- sponsibility which accompanies the honour. With such a responsibility as this honour entails, I like to feel that whatever ideas I express to-night, whatever praise I offer, whatever challenge I leave, may have the hearty support of my fellow graduates, because as valedictorian I feel it my duty to express not my own wishes only, but those which are held in common among my classmates. We all wish to leave a vital message to those who are left to fill our places, and we all wish to speak a word of appreciation to those who so successfully guided us through the intricate paths of knowledge to those awful June examinations. This scene to-night may seem conventional, but reallv it is no common- place occasion with us because it speaks of exercises and conclusions in life which will never die away. Each year a class graduates from this school and it may seem an ordinary procedure but each class in itself is distinct and quite original. Each class has its own distinct and original message which it wishes to express both to those who have guided its way and to those who have longed to reach its enviable place. When we started last September the halls were resonant with happy voices and bright with friendly smiles. Happy holiday memories were lost in the happier thought of renewed friendships to be continued for another year. Little did we think of what the future had in store for us either of work or play, pleasure or pain. We were soon engaged in what seemed irk- some duties, whose value can only be appreciated at a later date. VVe learned that our teachers were sympathetically hoping great things of us and with this inspiration, we progressed happily together until the days of reckoning came and we were weighed in the balance and the weighing I am happy to say, showed that most of us were not found wanting. But with that event we passed into the annals of the history of P. H. S. And yet it is not as though the connection were severed completely be- cause the friendships we have formed will live in our memory. Often we shall think of you, who are left to maintain our school's noble traditions. We shall think of the hours of sport we enjoyed together, the high hopes we had for our school, and our ever-changing plans for the future. We hope that our memory will not be our only means of comfort but that we may be blessed with actuality and often meet you face to face and have an old time chat. We have faith in you, we are expecting great things of you and may I suggest that without the power of concentration, without a firm determination to conquer, you will not attain success. And after all what is success in life? These are familiar words but their meaning is somewhat illusive and vague. May your idea of success in life be to do something distinctly virtuous and worthy of your heritage. May you be successful, stimulated by the thought that our interest in you never ceases. You are being given a chance to make a success in life. More and more we are coming to the time when only the well educated individual is being sought for and promoted. But it is not enough simply to be equipped with a knowledge of various subjects. One must also cultivate his mind so that he can grapple successfully with the practical problems that he has to attack. Knowledge and your ability to use it will be your great assets, and so in years of preparation do not neglect either. You have a school of which any town the size of Paris would be justly proud. You not only have this excellent building and equipment but above 15 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK all you have a staff, supported by a Board of Education, which leaves no stone unturned for your welfare. The Literary Society of which we are all proud has the hearty support of your staff because they realize that in this institution you have an oppor- tunity to develop your talents along many lines of activity. P. H. S. has the unique honour of being the only High School among many collegiates in the debates of the Western Ontario Secondary Schools Association. In this association your representatives have surpassed many from the larger col- legiates in debating and oratory. Your school has an academic record of which you may be proud and which it is your bounden duty to uphold. In athletics P. H. S. has often carried the honours off the field and all have realized that All work and no play makes Johnny a dull boy. Yet these have not been stressed to the exclusion of the academic work. This is the heritage of which you have become heirs. May such a history of the past stimulate you to rise so that you may gain still greater heights of glory and honour both for your school and yourselves. VVe feel a sadness in being forcibly separated from such a heritage, a sadness which no one can quite appreciate who has not passed through our present experience. We owe much to this school and this staff as well as the staff which preceded you. Some of us have attended these class-rooms and walked the same halls for five years, others for less, yet all feel the same sadness in parting because we are severing a chain of associations which can never be quite the same now that school days are over All that we are and all that we shall ever be has to a large extent been determined by our High School days and if we fail we cannot lay the blame to another's door, and if we attain success or distinction in any of the chosen professions of life, we shall always acknowledge with gratitude the support which this school has given us. As a graduating class we leave these familiar halls and lose contact with many who are nobly filling our places. We lose our places and connections but the memory grows more precious and our affection for you and the school Will never pass away. We do not bid you a long last farewell for that would be too mournful, let it rather be the old, kindly affectionate parting, good- bye and good luck. Ellen A.

Say which of you fellows is Joe Harris? A tall, muscular lad in spikes and running regalia, separated himself from a dozen similarly clad figures and dashed forward to meet the messenger. I'm Joe Harris! VVhat do you want? Here's a telegram for you, was the curt reply, f'Sign this, and the boy thrust forward simultaneously. a book, pencil and yellow envelope. VVith feverish haste Joe dashed off his name and tearing open the envelope read: Return home at once. Father killed. Mother. Joe's lips quivered slightly and a mist filled his eyes. All the joy and fellowship he had enjoyed during his five years at Glencoe Preparatory Schooln seemed to fade in his mind and in their stead loomed a dark and dismal future. His father dead! It seemed incredible for only a week ago . . . . All ready, Harris, you must win your last event-the school's honour . . . VVhy, what's the matter, lad? You're white as a sheetln Joe hastily thrust the message into his sweater pocket and then gulped out a low Nothing O'Brien, the coach, although he knew that something was wrong, did not press the boy to a disclosure but instead he placed his hand on his shoulder with a cheerful: All right, son, get in there and do your best , and he strode away. The young athlete stood perfectly still, his mind revolving what the coach had said to him. Finally he pulled himself together and a look of grim determination came into his eyes. He must win! The honour, ah, how that word was drumming in his ears now! The School's honour was at stake. He would fight to win and then . . . The six o'clock special roared into Glencoe City station and slowly slacken- ed down with a hissing grinding sound of applied brakes. Joe Harris, carrying only a small valise, ascended the carriage steps, made his way into a partly occupied coach and sat down. His face looked drawn and fatigued. The train started and he glanced at his wrist-watch. Five minutes past six! By half- past eight he would be home and tears came into his eyes at the thought, he, who but an hour ago had been carried off the school campus on the shoulders of a lusty, carefree, cheerful mob of admirers! Vainly trying to conceal his grief from the other passengers, he turned to the window and watched the miles roll by. A tap on the shoulder brought him around face to face with the conductor. Ticket, please, he asked patiently and Joe produced his pass from his pocket. Precisely two hours later, our hero alighted from the train to the plat- form of the dimly lighted station of Jacksonville. Here he hired the only conveyance and soon he was rattling homewards. Immediately the car stop- ped, Joe hastily paid the driver and, half running, half stumbling, he mounted the veranda steps. His mother met him in the parlour and, without a word, he enfolded her passionately in his arms, his pent-up sorrow breaking all bounds. The time has shifted two weeks in advance of this last episode. Joe Harris is one of the many freshmen patiently waiting for an interview with the head of Marsden University. After a long wait his turn comes and he is ushered into the president's office. Williani Wallace VVorthington, plus several degrees, wheeled around in his swivel chair and beckoned the youth to take a seat opposite him. Joe com- plied instantly although he felt somewhat fidgety. The head opened the con- versation with, Joseph James Harris. Have I you aright'? Yes, sir! was the prompt response. You wish to take up civil engineering I see. Yes, sir. Well, it's an extremely difficult course but by diligent studying you'll succeed. I find your certificates and recommendations excellent and I sincerely hope you will cherish every hour spent in this institute. And now, since my 17 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK time is limited, I must be brief. You will report to Mr. Eastman in number four dormitory at nine o'clock tomorrow morning and he will look after you. The head finished, and after shaking hands with the newcomer, dismissed him. Days afterwards, when Joe was settled down to his work in earnest, he was strolling leisurely towards the football field whence were coming the cries of animated youths. On the Way he was accosted by the coach of the team who came to the point at once with I say, Harris, a friend of mine at Glencoe tipped me off that you were a mighty good halfback. Go to the club- house, borrow a suit from Jenkins and report to me! Joe blushed but then said steadily, choosing his words, I'm terribly sorry, sir, but I'm through with sports. You see, sir, with my studies and er-with the job I'm applying for as janitor's helper, I can't possibly spare the time! The coach scrutinized him closely and then replied frankly, I like you Harris and the chances are that you're a real player! You come and try out for the team and I'll fix it so that you get that job. On the other hand, if you don't accept, no job! As this was seemingly the only way out now, Joe accepted the offer and fifteen minutes later, he was lining up with the scrub players. Say, coach, that Harris is a wonder! Look at him break away! He appears to be a great find if he doesn't get a swelled head! Brent Bosworth, the captain of the regular squad, addressed the coach in this manner as they stood surveying the 'turnioil from the side-lines. The last named made no reply but in his eyes gleamed the light of satisfaction. As the players were filing towards the club-house, the coach called Joe from among them and when they were alone, he said to him, Harris, I'm going to break all my steadfast rules by giving you . . . a fresh . . , your colours. Furthermore you will be given a tryout against Stanford, our greatest rival, next week, and I hope that you'll come through both for your mother's sake and for that of the 'Golden Brown' Joe felt a lump rise in his throat, but controlling his feelings, he said modestly, Sir, I certainly appreciate your confidence and I'll do my level best both for the school's honour and for my mother. With this, he ran off in pursuit of his fellow-players. The coach followed him with appraising eyes until he disappeared and then musing, said to himself, He won't disappoint me, he's too plucky! PART II. The Grand Finale. The years have fiown by since last we heard of Joe Harris and now we find him, grown to manhood, escorting his mother to a seat in the huge auditorium. His graduation night! It seemed incredible and yet it was true! In another few minutes he would be called forward by the president of the university and be presented with his parchment and his scholarship. Hark! The chairman has paused before presenting the last diploma. Now he is once more addressing the assembled throng: Ladies and gentlemen,-It gives me a great deal of pleasure to present to you this evening one of the most out- standing young men ever educated within the portals of this university. D'ur- ing his four years here, he has proved at all times most reliant, studious and courteous. He is, this year, the winner of the handsome scholarship presented by the Royal Society of Engineers, which reflects still more honour on his parents, his college and himself. I might add that the aforesaid society has appointed him to a very noteworthy position and I am certain that you will now vouch for his popularity. Will Mr. Harris please come forward? We leave Joe Harris at the end of his admirable school career and now steadily mounting the ladder of success. He saw his vision and had the courage to fight to attain it, buoyed up by his own will and honour. Finis.

Eby Ronald Gorrie Critic William Barlow THE SPRING TERM The bustle and excitement of elections having subsided, the first regular meeting of the term was held January 16th. The past president, Fred Pascoe, occupied the chair, and after giving a brief resume of the work carried -on in the Literary Society, called upon the newly-elected president to take charge. Miss Inez Newell, the successful candidate at the election, in a few brief well- chosen words, extended her thanks to the members of the society for upholding her in the previous elections. Each member of the executive was then called upon in turn, to express his or her appreciation for having been elected to office. The main feature of the program was a debate Resolved that annex- ation to the United States would be in the best interests of Canada. The affrimative side was upheld by Helen Churchill and Doris Gardner, and the negative side by Reba Gilham and Isobel Burt. No decision was given for the debate, it being merely a trial for the girls before they debated at the Kitchener collegiate. The meeting was adjourned by singing f'God Save the King. Possibly one of the most interesting meetings of the whole term was held on Feb. 22nd. The system had been adopted of allowing each form to be in charge of the program for at least one meeting. Third form was therefore providing the entertainment for this occasion. O Canada was sung in opening, and the minutes of the last meeting were read and adopted. Form III. then presented the program which consisted of a Mock Trial, the plot of which is as follows: A young married 111211 from the South was accused of stealing a chicken by Miss Marian Notsoyoung. It appears that Miss Notso- young had retired to a secluded little spot, where she was endeavoring to spend the rest of her life in peace. This esteemed lady kept pet chickens, in which she took much pride. All evidence pointed against our southern friend, who had been seen several times on the eve of the robbery, in somewhat sus- picious places, yet none of the many witnesses could actually say he was carry- ing a chicken. The wife of the southerner had been given a one dollar bill for household services rendered, which she claims was spent to purchase a chicken, for a party that was in the process of preparation. The pastor of the African mission was called upon to testify to the integrity of the southerner, who took up the collection each Sunday at the meetnigs. Many witnesses were called upon by the defendant, as well as the prosecution, but no direct evidence could be obtained either way. The jury was asked to retire and bring in its verdict. Their decision was guilty, with a plea for leniency. The judge, taking this into account, allowed the prisoner his freedom, on suspended sentence. The leading characters in the role were: Prisoner, William Barlow, prose- cutrix, Phyllis Telferg lawyer for defense, Orval Miller, lawyer for prosecu- tion, Margaret Flahiffg parson, Robert Richardson, judge, Fred Pascoe. The last meeting of the spring term was held on Empire Day, May 23rd. After the customary opening, f'The Quill was read by its worthy editor, Ernest Gould. For this last meeting we were most fortunate in securing our honorary president, Mr. Reg. Turnbull, to give a short address. Mr. Turnbull outlined very clearly the true way to success in the business world. 20 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK He emphasized particularly the need for thorough training, and the advisability of remaining at school as long as circumstances would permit. The only way to attain the highest results, continued Mr. Turnbull, is to exercise continual application., With a few personal experiences, Mr. Turnbull closed his ad- dress by wishing all candidates at the June examinations every possible suc- cess. This being the last meeting of the term, the prophecy was read by Ellen Wishart, concerning the future of the graduates. This prophecy appears elsewhere in the book. The orator, Orval Miller, delivered an original oration, which met with heartiest approval. The meeting closed with the singing of the National Anthem. THE FALL TERM With its usual promptness and precision, the Literary Society conducted its nomination meeting on Wednesday, September 12th. Fred Pascoe acted as chairman owing to the fact that last term's president, Inez Newell, was one of the successful graduates, and was therefore not in attendance. The nominations quickly dispensed with, a most interesting innovation was presented. For some years past, no satisfactory form of initiation had been devised, but this year, in order to allow those who were beginning their High School studies for the first time, to feel a part of the school, they were allowed at this meeting, to come on the platform one by one, and give enter- tainment to the assembled school, by singing, reciting, dancing, playing, or giving a speech. Each new-comer took his or her part exceedingly well, and the new idea could undoubtedly be considered a success. The meeting closed promptly at four o'clock, by singing God Save the King. The most satisfactory way of procuring a program for the Literary So- ciety, has been found, by allowing each form to take its turn. On Oct. 29th Form V. took charge of the program. The only male pianist in the form, Hugh Wilson, favored the audience with two most excellent numbers. Fol- lowing this the main feature was then delivered in the form of a Mock Rural School Board Meeting. Ernest Gould acted in the capacity of chairman, and during the course of the meeting many humorous topics were raised for dis- cussion. The audience did, in a marked way, show its appreciation of this comic rendering. Wilma Carr and Helen Churchill displayed their musical ability by playing a pianoforte duet. After the reading of 'The Quill the meeting was brought to a close. On Nov. 16th Form IV. conducted a first-rate meeting. The chief item of interest was a one act comedy entitled, The Dearest Thing in Boots. Orval Miller who represented the proprietor of the shoe store, had a young son, Richardson, whom he desired to become acquainted with the business. The father set forth several hard and fast rules, to be followed closely bv the son, while practising salesmanship. With every customer who entered the store, the son caused some unpleasantness because of his close adherence to the rules, and in each event the father stepped in and saved the situation. Finally the son becoming disgusted with the shoe business, decided to retire from it, without his father's knowledge. He did so, and later presented his father with a daughter-in-law, Whom he introduced as the Dearest thing in boots. Form III. in its meeting on Nov. 23rd, went to a great deal of time and trouble to give the audience an idea of how a Millinery Opening should be conducted. Mary Elson taking the leading part of inilliner, very cleverly undertook an entirely impromptu conversation with every customer who entered the store. Clifford Cunningham acted as the milliner's chore boy, and was continually being upbraided for his numerous delinquencies. Much mirth was exhibited throughout the presentation, and third form is to be con- gratulated on its contribution to the Literary meeting. It would be well nigh impossible to write in detail the countless points of interest that have occurred in our society during the past term. Our society has always aimed to develop the many and varied talents that exist in our school. We believe that, year by year, we are accomplishing our purpose with better results, yet there is still much room for improvement, and it is the earnest hope of the retiring executive that the spring officers will by far exceed our feeble attempts. Fred P35006- Z1 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK A WINTER EVENING The bright and shining sun does darker grow In shades of lavenders and pinks The white and dazzling fields of drifted snow Seem soft and dim as the sun sinks. The fluHy clouds which all the day were flown, By the cold wind, now seem to slip To catch the rose petals which the sun has strown And each turn to a fairy ship. With small pink sails and frothing waves below Bound for a sweet, enchanted isle, Yonder where castles loom and flowers grow As the sun catches a rosy smile. On large and massive banks of darker clouds The pine that when the sun was bright I.Vas green, becomes deep black and slowly nods As the winds foretell the approach of night. Now lower sinks the sun and lower still And dimmer grow the objects near Till I can scarcely see the old windmill And yet I feel no trace of fear. For when the distant mountains hide from sight That big and wondrous setting orb. The stars come out and fondly greet the night And night does the daylight absorb. And soon the moon comes rising in the sky And sheds its mellow light o'er all, The dreamy hills beneath the moonbeams lie And silent slumbers softly fall. And then the world is wrapped in happy sleep VVinds are quiet, noises cease, The twinkling stars their silent watches keep And the still earth is ruled by peace.

W6,1'Q proud of our fair school And of our pupils, too, They'll guard and keep its honour bright, And work, and dare, and do. Remember those who once were here, But now their spirit's fled, For overseas in sunny France, They fought for us, and bled. In memory of all our boys Who sleep in Flanders fields W'e'll hold the burning torch on high And wield it through the years. So within these halls of learning We are meeting day by day, As friends and comrades, playing What the sportsman calls fair play. VVe have some clever orators Who for our school win fame, And many a victory in debates Have our contestants claimed. In athletics, too, we're doing iine, But 'tis not for the glory of fame But the spirit of school which calls us all, To play, play up, and play the game.

Ogrlidulilltess SATURDAY, APRIL 20th, 1953 one Alter Thirty Years of Fighting a Woman Enters the Canadian Senate Special by Kathleen Blackburn to Monday Evening Post-Women are in their heyday of Power and privilege. Grim determination on the part of the women of Canada has succeeded in breaking down the barriers of cus- tom and prejudice. Women through- out Canada, whether doctors, lawyers, merchants, chiefs, Conservatives or Liberals will delight in victory. What happiness they will enjoy! To Miss Hazel Laurie falls the unique honour of representing Cana- dian women in that assemblage of supposedly sage men. Paris may well be proud of the brilliant political career of this talented lady. Having the fitting background of ten years in the Ontario Government, Miss Laurie was the one to Crash the gate on Government Hill in spite of the con- tinued and persistent notices such as A woman is not a person and must be kept out. The B. N. A. Act, the Supreme Court decision-all have been overcome and a woman reigns supreme in the Senate chamber. To the life of Ottawa, Miss Laurie brings a lively enthusiasm and un- bounded energy. Her zest for social life and her delight in meeting the senators amaze the older hostesses of Ottawa. In spite of the pessimistic predic- tions that the world would decline when women took public offices and superseded the men in business and in every walk of life, the contrary seems to be coming true as the last 25 years show. Ed. note-iOld 5th of 1928 will join heartily with me, I am sure, and with this whole city in congratulating Miss Hazel Lauriej. VVar Again Between Two Eastern States Special-The Zulu warriors of Cen- tral Africa have dispatched a large fleet of submarines there at once.

Old Hat Worn by Napoleon Brings 315,000 at Auction. Paris, April 19, 1953-One of Na- poleon's hats, a well-worn specimen, has been sold at auction for 315,000 to Miss Inez Newell, when home on furlough. The only explanation that can be given by friends for Miss Newell having bought the hat, is that in her younger days she took Modern history while at P. H. S. She always liked history and wished a tangible reminder of those old days and those old associations tall grads. of '28 will understand her expendi- ture of so large a sum for so small an article.J I 1 Q 'A-I i I' .Q . la -n' l' 1- I' -11. -I f LE.

DISCOVERY tCopyright throughout worldl Special despatch-A friend, in the person of Mr. Alpheus Lovett, janitor of Paris Collegiate Institute, found the following letter between the boards in one of those old-fashioned movable desks which reposed in 5th form, now the music room: Nov. 11, 1923, P. H. S. 330-4. To my sheik, lBruce Adamslz Since this is the eleventh day of the eleventh month on which day so many years ago such a momentous event took place. I am stealing this mo- ment from my mathematics to write a very important letter to you my sheik. This was the heavenly half hour when we sat side by side across the hall making those unheavenly gases. Ellen had to come and sit down be- side us and I tried to send her otf after some water. That was the day Miss Flanagan caught you steadying my hand on the school lamp. But now this half hour is the dullest in my whole life, so dull that I found no pleasure in the smells of chemistry and have lapsed into sorrow and have set this half hour aside as a memorial to you. Those rides home with my sheik! But surely I don't need to put my thoughts on paper. You can read between the lines, can't you dande- lion? Honestly tell me whether you asked Ellen to send you an autographed Year Book? She says you asked her before me, but then I know you wouldn't treat your little Inez like that. I hear Bet calling me so I must go. Your loving ex-chemistry and ex- history class-mate, Egypt. Inez Newell P.S.-In after years when this you see- I wonder what my name will be? Ed. Note-Poor Inez, disappointed in love has gone away from all that could remind her of it, She is now sewing for the United Church on Sun- rise Island, South Seas, having train- ed at Union Theological College and Ladies' Training School, Toronto. Once recently when she was here on a flying visit she asked me how Bruce was. When I told her he had mar- ried another girl, she laughed. I guess she was seeing through a joke. THEATRE NEWS Imperial Theatre all this week. Vaudeville Acts, including Miss Anna Williams, world's famous comedienne. World's News-Mr. Eric C. Apps, formerly of Paris, now footman to the aged Henry Ford, the following news is flashed: Having worn out eight skipping ropes and 19 pairs of shoes, Eric C. Apps, age 41, -of Beverly Hills, Cali- fornia, has reached the half-way mark in his cross-country rope-skipping en- durance contest. Ed. Note-Those who knew Eric in P. H. S. will quite understand how he would be physically able to accom- plish such a feat of endurance. BIRTHS, DEATHS and MARRIAGES Apps.-At the in-law, Mr. H. T.

THE MONDAY EVENING POST, APRIL 20, 1953 Three MARRIAGES Tough-Sinclair Paris Presbyterian Church, Paris, was the scene of a very pretty wed- ding on Saturday, April 19, at four p.m., when Isabelle Margaret, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. Sinclair, became the bride of David Tough, only son of Mr. and Mrs. A. Tough. The ceremony was performed by the Reverend B. M. Brown. The couple intend to spend their lives in Scotland carrying the gospel to the shepherds in the hills, the fishermen of the sea and the tillers of the soil. Ed. Note.-Former 5th formers of '28 may wonder why these two were not united in the holy bonds of matri- mony before. Let me explain-D'avid was very much in love with Isabelle, fort amoureux, as the French say. But although they had been walking out for years the lad could not sum- mon up the courage to ask the ques- tion. But one night a brilliant idea came to him. The couple were Roamin' in the gloam1n, '-that reminds me of a verse- One nicht in the gloamin' W'e were trippin' side by side I kissed her twice and asked her once If she would be my bride, She was shy and so was I And we were both the same But I got brave and braver On the journey comin' hame - when he suddenly asked Isabelle to step into the local cemetery with him. What on earth for, Dave? she ask- ed, with amazement. Something very important Isabelle, he urged, as he practically dragged her into the kirk yard. Hurrying along to the corner of the cemetery he suddenly stopped beside a group of tomb- stones. Ma grandfather's lyin' here and ma faither and ma mither an' your faither and mither and all your folk are lyin' here. Now Isabelle how would ye like to be here wi' me some day? N.B.-This is strictly private but authentic. PERSONALS The Rev. Bernard McCullus Brown preached very interesting sermons in Burford last Sunday. His topic for the morning service was The man who had no parents-the son of Nun. For the evening service Judas went and hanged himself. Go do thou likewise. SPEED OF CEPHENEMYIA REACHED VVITH AEROPLANE Col. Donald Crozier on a trial flight on April 16 has eventually tripled the aeroplane speed record of 300 miles an hour of a few years ago. Being a graduate of Mechanical Engineer- ing at the University of Toronto and having had years of experience in Hy- ing, Crozier is the man who would be most likely to accomplish such an extraordinary exploit. The speed of that speedy creature of South America, The Cephenemyia fly, has been surpassed, a creature which travels 400 yards a second. At this speed of 900 miles an hour Crozier expects to travel round the world every other day conducting sight-seeing tours. Reservations may be made now with Colonel Crozier for evening trips across the Atlantic. Several parties from Paris, his home town, expect to spend an evening in old London this s L: m mer. Soon milady will say to hubby at 5 p.m.: VVill you fly across to Paris and get me a new evening dress for the dinner to-night. And be careful of the crowds on the highway between mid-Atlantic and Spot-High Point. KNITTING CLUB'S WORK WAS HELPFUL The Paris Women's Knitting Club met at the home of Miss Marion Mc- Cammon to hold its last meeting for this season. Although the member- ship is limited to twenty the club has accomplished a good deal under the able presidency of Miss McCammon. That kindly lady has of late years benefited the community greatly by her benevolent works. It is worthy to note also that Miss MCCRIIIIIIOH has opened a feline hospital and shelter near her home and takes a kind interest in their welfare. This may lead to the forming of a Humane So- ciety in Paris. During the last year 440 knitted ga1'ments were distributed to the following institutions:-Salva- tion Army, Brewery Mission, Crippled Children's Hospital and Old People's Four THE MONDAY EVENING POST, APRIL 20, 1953 Home, all of the above mentioned being in Paris. Ed. Note - The organization of this knitting club re- flects much credit upon Miss McCam- mon and shows clearly her kindly heart and untiring efforts for the bettering of her fellow citizens' lives. Prominent Bachelor Pastor Arrested and Fined by Lady Cycle Officer. Miss Betty Burt after a long chase on Wednesday night last succeeded in stopping the Reverend Bernard Brown on the Paris highway, and arrested him. Miss Burt has done remarkable work in keeping down the speed on our highways, and this arrest illustrates her utter disregard for precedent and reflects much credit upon her. Ed. Note.-Those of us who knew those two personages in days gone by may enjoy a little joke all to ourselves over this affair. Miss Burt you will notice and Bachelor pastor. Of course being in a public position such as mine is, I cannot say, any- thing, but I chuckle to myself. Miss Burt wasn't running after him. Oh! No! Wait and see whether she really did catch him. A cycle officer is a good position for a spinster who does not wish to seem to be running after the opposite sex. CThis letter was written to the editor of this paper by Thomas Briggs.J Kalliste, which is translated Most Beautiful Corsica. : Dear Editor,-I write this letter in renewing my subscription to your valued paper. I want to thank you especially for having delivered it to me every day by air. They say, Read it in the morning while it is news, but your paper is news when I receive it. And now a few words concerning myself. Worn by the incessant de- mands of a large family I sought se- clusion among the sylvan solitudes of this sun-kissed and wind-caressed Isle of Corsica. The very thoughts of Napoleon. Colomba and Orso and others sooth my perplexed brain. Here I live among the simple pea- sants sleeping on hay, eating of olives, nuts, figs and vegetable soup. I am impressed by the quaint and colourful costumes of this passionate, hospitable people. I delight to sit on a hillside watching the sun set on the blue Mediterranean and to listen to the stories told by Hle grand-peref' Every winter I go to Paris and am employed by Jeanne Paton as the leading model in men's wear in that metropolis. But what I delight in most is the pleasant air and custom of Corsica. I can truly say with Napoleon, I would know my fair Corsica even though I were blind if I could get the perfume of its garden. Yours truly, Thomas .Alfonso Briggs. Ellen Wishart, Prophetess There was a sound of revelry by day, And Fifth Form had gathered about her then, Her flappers and her dumbells, and bright The sun shone o'er fair women and brave men. Eighteen hea1'ts beat happily: and when Ray arose with his voluptuous swell, Jean's eyes looked love to his, which spake again, And all went merry as a dinner bell. But hush! hark! a deep step strikes like a rising knell. Did ye not hear it! No, 'twas Fourth Form snoring, Or Bob's Ford rattling o'er the stoney street. On with the row, let noise be unconfined, No work at all, when youth and pleasure meet. Till teacher rushes in with flying feet. But hark! that heavy step breaks in once more, As if the halls its echoes would repeat, And nearer, clearer, deadlier than before! To your seats! 'tis the principal at the door. 26 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Armistice Day The annual commemoration service for those who gave their lives in the Great War was held in the Paris High School gymnasium on Friday, Nov. 9. After singing O Canada the chairman, Mr. Butcher, made a few appropriate remarks and then read the names of our Heroic Dead -graduates who, while fighting for freedom and liberty, fell for the great cause. The pupils of the school then rose and reverently joined in singing the hymn so frequently used during the period of strife, O God Our Help in Ages Past. Rev. J. S. Adamson very kindly consented to give us a brief address for the occasion, which proved most impressive. Mr. Adamson gave some personal reminiscences concerning some of his friends among the fallen, including an account of the death of Nursing Sister Dorothy Baldwin, who was killed in the bombing of a base hospital. He also expressed the feeling that the dead seemed to be very close to us during the two minute silence observed in their memory. Mr. Adamson closed his address by repeating a most appropriate poem, the last of which is as follows: The one I loved was marching In the ranks as they passed byg I spoke his name, I clasped his hand, Looked into his smiling eye. Keep faith in life in sacrifice, Keep faith with a million dead, Stand by the right, fail not the good, Were the simple words he said. Following the address Marguerite Bringloe very beautifully recited that war-famous poem, In Flanders Fieldsf' This was followed by the whole school rising and standing with bowed heads during the two minutes' silence. The meeting closed by singing the National Anthem. Mrs. Nouveaw-Riche: He's getting on so well at school, he learns French and Algebra. Now Ronnie say 'ow do you do to the lady in Algebra.' Hamilton aviator: Wanna fly? Dimps: O-o-oh yes! Aviator: Wait! I'll catch one for you. Betty B.: 4'The world is a stage. Fred: Yes, and all the speaking parts are given to women. Row.: See that girl over there ? Terry: Yes. Row.: Well she bought a dress on the instalment plan and she has the first instalment on. My love is like a red, red rose, Until she powders well her nose. 27 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Afggifgf E2 -' ' - --1 n- .

The judges, Dr. Detvveiler of London, Rev. J. P. Watts of Waterloo, and Lt.-Col. Monteith of Paris gave their decision for the negative, the score being 3-2. The same afternoon at Kitchener Helen Churchill and Doris Gardner argued in favour of the affirmative side of this debate but failed to convince the judges, who gave their decision to the negative which was upheld by Conradine Schmidt of Waterloo and Nancy Devitt of Kitchener. The score was 3-2. The judges were Rev. Sperling of Kitchenerg Mrs. J. A. Appleby, Paris, and Mr. M. E. Passet the neutral judge.-H. B. C. ST. THOMAS-PARIS As a result of the debate with Kitchener, Paris and Kitchener were tied. The tie was broken by a debate with St. Thomas on February 20, 1928. At Paris Grace Mcllroy and Marion Spencer of St. Thomas took the af- firmative side of the debate, '6Resolved that Lloyd George is a greater states- man than Gladstone was. The judges gave their decision in favor of the negative, which was upheld by Doris Gardner and Isobel Burt of Paris, the score being 3-2. The same afternoon at St. Thomas the Paris girls, Ellen Wishart and Inez Newell upheld the aiirmative side, while Gwen Sells and Helen Keillor of St. Thomas took the negative side of this debate. The judges gave their decision in favour of the negative with a score of 3-1. H. B. C. ST. MARYS-PARIS The boys' first debate of this season was held with St. Marys on the same afternoon as the girls' debate with Stratford. This was Nov. 2, 1928. At Paris Gordon Bell and Franklin Barrett of St. Marys so ably argued the af- firmative side of this debate that the judges gave their decision for their side. Joel Eby and Ronald Gorrie argued well on the negative side but could not break down their opponents' arguments. At St. Marys Orval Miller and Robert Richardson, speaking on the af- firmative side, convinced the judges by their eloquence and thus won the debate. J. Lurtch and Burt Brovm of St. Marys argued Well on the negative side.-H. B. C. STRATFORD-PARIS The first debate of this season was held on Nov. 2, 1928, with Stratford, the subject being Resolved that Trial by Judge is preferable to trial by Jury. At Paris Evelyn Rossiter and Eleanor Gonder took the affirmative side and Jean Stockton and Wilma Carr the negative. Although the affirmative side argued wisely and well the judges gave the decision in favour of the negative. At Stratford the affirmative side of this debate Was so ably upheld by the sisters, Betty and Isobel Burt that the judges gave their decision in favour of Paris. Christine Copus and Jean Stapleton of Stratford argued well on the negative side but failed to break down the afirmative arguments. H. B. C. 29 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK PARIS-KITCHENER In the debating contest held on Dec. 2, 1928 between Paris and Kitchener the Paris High School girls won and lost, being victorious over the Twin City girls at Paris, but losing at Kitchener.

The judges were Mrs. E. O. Apps, of Paris, Mrs. Smith, of Kitchener, and Miss Mason, of London.

Misses Irene Peterson and Phyllis Telfer upheld the affirmative side of the debate. The judges for this debate were Dr. Austin Dunton of Paris, Rev. G. T. Munes, Kitchener and H. B. Christie, of Brantford. H. B. C. SENIOR ORATORICAL CONTEST The Senior Oratorical Contest, which also took the form -of selecting our representative in the Canada wide contest fostered by the Toronto Daily Star, was held on Friday, February 24th, 1928, in the gymnasium. Mr. Butcher occupied the chair and called on the speakers, all of whom presented splendid orations on the subject of Canada's Future. Each address breathed a spirit of patriotism and held an appeal to ideals. The speakers were Inez Newell, Betty Burt, Ellen Wishart, Margaret Flahiff and Mary Black. During the judging a humorous debate took place, following which the late Mrs. iDr.D Sinclair on behalf of the I. O. D. E. who had so kindly donated the prizes, announced the winners and presented the prizes to Mary Black, Inez Newell and Ellen Wishart. During the evening Mrs. Adeney's orchestra rendered a number of musi- cal selections which were greatly appreciated by all. DISTRICT ORATORICAL CONTESTS The Junior Oratorical Contest OV. O. S. S. AJ for our district was held in Stratford. Our representatives were Mary Black and Earl McDonald, who were both successful in obtaining second place in their respective contests. Mary Black represented Paris High School in the Toronto Star Oratorical Contest. She upheld the honour of the school by coming second in the semi- finals at Brantford Collegiate, thus qualifying her to enter the district finals at Hamilton, where she was eliminated. 30 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK The End of the Rainbow The thunder rumbled hoarsely out of the west-the sign of a coming storm. It was yet dark as Joan Aynsley heard the old grandfather's clock dovmstairs solemnly strike five times. The wind rose higher and higher and the storm became wild. Second by second its ferocity increased-then a tense moment- the heavens became as light as day for a full sixty seconds-and with a terrific roar, which seemed to rend the heavens, the storm broke. Once more the world settled quietly to rest as the last echo rolled in the distance. Joan slept and she had a dream. The sun was shining after the storm and a rainbow appeared in the sky. I wonder if it is true that there is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, she mused. I should love to go and see. Suddenly a small sprite appeared. If you wish to go to the end of the rainbow, it said, I shall give you the passport. Take this, as she handed a piece of paper to Joan, and, if you desire your wish to be granted, read this passport aloud. Joan obeyed and read. iI, Joan Aynsley, wish to go to station indigo at the end of the rainbow' Not long after she had said this seven fairies appeared, dressed in red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. They carried with them a fieecy white cloud and told her to sit down in it. This she did and soon found herself sailing up and over the rainbow-then down, down, she went until she arrived at station indigo. When she stepped out of the cloud she saw the pot of gold, standing a short distance away. She went towards it, but much to her surprise it vanished, and turning around, she found it behind her. She tried to get it several times but it always vanished and re-appeared. Finally, it remained still and she was just bending down to pick it up when she felt a Violent shaking and awoke. Joan's mother was standing by her bedside when she opened her eyes. Goodness, I had to shake you to awaken you this morning, she said. Hey, miss, you'll be late for school, shouted her brother George. He was answered by a great yawn on the girl's part. However, she happened to be ready for school at the usual time. Joan was in fifth form in high school, and that day, the Principal an- nounced to the class that a scholarship would be given to the pupil who passed with highest honours in the senior matriculation examinations at the end of the year. I will try for it, she thought, but she had rivals-Jean Durvan and Dennison Cranson were also going to try for the prize. Days passed on-Indian summer faded and old man winter put on his frosty garments. Christmas came, and with it came examinations. Joan studied hard and she ranked first in the class, she had beaten Jean and Dennison. The chill winter days passed slowly away. One cold day Joan came home from school at noon shivering and fevered, and her throat was very sore. The doctor was called, and he said that Joan had a very serious attack of diphtheria. She lay still on her bed, burning with fever for two long weeks, then slowly she began to recover. Very weak was the girl who had been so ill. Her days of convalescence were long and dull and dragged on through the last week of February into the first of March, seeming almost interminable. Then one day, about the middle of March, Joan was allowed to return to school. Never before had she been so glad to go back to her lessons. She knew it would be hard work at Hrst, but she managed to get her work up in a 31 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK very short time, as she was very clever. Joan could not try the examinations before Easter, but she returned after the holidays fully prepared for the tests. Much to her surprise, Joan ranked second, that May, to Dennison Cranson. Although there is not much chance for me, she reflected, I shall try for the scholarship. It seemed almost impossible for a girl who had lost so much school work to win a scholarship, but after having ranked second she thought there would be no harm in trying. As the time for the finals approached, Joan felt that, with the aid of her teachers she had mastered practically everything. When the time came she Went to school eager and excited. As she tried her examinations, one by one, it seemed almost as if she were dreaming, they all seemed too easy to be real. Joan felt sure of passing but the prize, she thought, was not for her. After six long weeks of waiting, Dennison Cranson picked up the local paper one day and was reading it when he noticed the following: Joan Aynsley, clever high school girl, wins scholarship. He rushed to the telephone and called her up to congratulate her. What for? she said. Did you not know you won that scholarship?,' No,,' she replied. George Aynsley has been playing another of his foolish tricks, I'll wager, came from the other end of the line. As soon as Joan left the telephone, she ran to her brother. George, she said, You have the letter with my exam. results in it, and you have had it for several days. He smiled, and handed it to her. Don't feel badly, old girl, was it not worth waiting for? Just as a brother would do, she thought,- keep a girl in suspense! Joan sat musing that night. I had a dream once about a rainbow. There was a pot of gold at the end. Could it have meant this prize? Ah! I have reached the end of the rainbow, and I have found my pot of gold. Dorothy Flanagan. FIFTH FORM Burt was Wilson QWill's sonb he and Thomson tTom's sonj both loved the same girl.

This year we hope to have more games against other schools. The team consisted of the following: Wentworth, Deans, Harmer, Briggs, Brown, Bradbury, Richardson and Eby. BASKETBALL Basketball is gaining in favour. Last year the inter-form competition was a great success with much good-natured rivalry among the classes. Fourth Form managed to capture the laurels. SOFTBALL Teams were chosen again this fall. However, the schedule was not finished because of increase of interest in football. A rugby game, Upper vs. Middle, had to be postponed because of extra bad weather each time the game was to be played. 35 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Field Day, 1928-Fall The annual Field Day was held on September 26. Competition was better than ever and the judges had a hard time choosing the winners. As in former years, the mile and half-mile races were run off the previous day be- cause of the lengthy program.

The weather being favourable many spectators were present to cheer the participants in the sports. The senior cup was closely contested by the Simcoe and Paris teams, but the former carried oft' the honours and for another year have possession of the cup. Next year the Field Day will be held in Simcoe as a result of their winning the senior cup. The Simcoe Junior Boys Won their cup by a large margin of points and as this was their third victory the cup will remain with them. Paris girls are consistent in winning and hold the new cup donated by Mr. C. B. Robinson. At the conclusion of the events the girls of the Simcoe High School served refreshments at the school. The cups and ribbons were then presented and after a short programme the visitors departed for home. Athletics play a prominent part in our school life and we hope to be able to carry them on in future years with as much spirit and zeal as we have in the past.

The editors of the former papers have been very successful, and the new ones have a high standard to uphold. But we cannot do it alone. It is for the benefit of our school, and surely for such a high and Worthy cause we can all spend a few moments of thought and make this term's volume bigger and better than ever. THE EDITOR SUGGESTS A good Way to prevent cheating during examinations is suggested below: 1. Students will march to class under guard of police equipped with sawed-of shotguns. 2. VVill be stopped at door and searched for contraband notes, etc. 3. Before entering class-room each student will be submitted to psycho- logical examination to determine Whether or not he has any idea of cheating. Class-room will be decorated with such notes as Honesty has its re- ward. Think before you Cheat. 5. Each student must wear blinds and place a handkerchief in his mouth. 6. Students and teachers will enter together and the doors will be locked and sealed. 7. Students will sit two seats apart with two teachers standing between each two students. Teachers will be armed with blackjacks to inspire re- spect. . 8. Additional teachers on the outside will Watch through peepholes in the walls. 9. Highly tuned dictaphones will be concealed behind the pictures to catch the slightest sound. 10. When the student has iinished his examination a lie detector will be used to find whether he has cheated or not. Before marking papers teachers will deduct ten points from each paper, on the possibility that the student has cheated. A TRAGEDY In Dimp's wardrobe, a moth once appeared, Exceedingly hungry was he, He downed some shear stockings And speedily cleared A bundle of fine lingerie, Ate four evening dresses, and then passed away. VVith a sigh of profound resignation, An inquest was held on the following day, And the verdict was Death from starvation. We have just thought up a bullet-proof way to get rid of a cat that al- ways comes back:- I. Take a long walk, the cat will naturally follow. VValk all day without stopping for meals. The kitty will work off all its surplus avoirdupois, fading to a mere shadow of its former self. Now put the pussy in a room and turn out the light. Obviously the shadow will disappear. At least one of our teachers evidently believes in 'thot baths. Third Form pupils are not aware if it is the custom, but one day after making a strong solution in chemistry class, and on taking down notes, they were told to tip the test-tube sideways and slide into it.

Barlow reports that he is taking great interest in the folk dance practises as he has seen enough through the keyhole to thoroughly stir his enthusiasm. 40 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK The Debt of Gratitude tBy Old Topj In Three Parts PART I. The scene was wild and picturesque and would have delighted the eye of any artist. Against a background of the wild, natural beauty of the forest stood a group of men. With his back to a large tree stood a white man of medium height whose garb proclaimed him a priest. He was of rather slender build but his quick, active motions displayed more strength than the massive limbs of some of those around him. He had evidently reached middle age, his dark hair being slightly tinged with grey. His face was not handsome, but was made striking by the strong lines of character shown there. He had a broad, intelligent forehead, large dark eyes, an aristocratic nose and a square chin, an evidence of the strong character within. Before him, in a semi-circle, were about twenty Indians in their native dress. Immediately in front of him stood one who was evidently the leader of the group. He made a striking figure in his gaudy dress, being slightly taller than his comrades. This was Hawkeye. an Indian brave who, with several others of of his tribe, had come to hear the message of the missionary. The missionary spoke earnestly to the little group for a short time and then they parted, the Indians to go back to their camp, the priest to the mission-house. Edward de Montcey was a missionary who had come to this new and wild country because he desired to do some good service for God. He had been sent to the new settlement at Montreal and this had been his first real ex- perience with the Indians. He wasn't sure whether it had been a success or not but was inclined to think that it had. If he could have seen the scene at the Indian camp he would not have been so optimistic. The few who had attended Father de Montcey's little service were favour- ably impressed and their greatest desire was to learn more about what the missionary had been telling them. They now wended their way to the tent of their chief to tell him about the service for he had sent them to hear what this man had to say. On entering the tent they found a council of Indians already assembled to discuss this bold move of the white men, who had made a settlement so far up the river. The majority of them were inclined to iight the white men and force them to go back to Quebec. Hawkeye took his place as leader of the party and told the chief and the assembled Indians all that had occurred during the little service and although they saw nothing in what the missionary had either said or done, with which they could find fault they decided to pursue their old course and drive the white men from Montreal. They closed their council by forbidding anyone to attend the missionary's services. Q Unaware of all this Father De Montcey held his little services daily. He got a few Indians from the various tribes to each service and if he missed those who had attended his Hrst service, he never said anything about it. One thing he did notice, however, was that Hawkeye, the leader of those who had attended his first service, was very regular in his attendance at the services. The missionaries had already had a small church built and were hoping to have some converts among the Indians. Father De Montcey believed that Hawkeye would be one of the first to be converted. Between De Montcey and Hawkeye there had grown up a great respect and liking which was fast ripening into friendship. De Montcey knew from what little had been said that it was at his own peril that Hawkeye attended the services and that sooner or later the chief would find out and that would mean punishment for Hawkeye. This, however, did not weaken the new faith that he was fast acquiring through the teachings of Father De Montcey and 41 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK although, being an Indian, he was not demonstrative in his love, in his heart he almost adored De Montcey as the emblem of all that was good and manly. De Montcey was not insensible to his devotion and many were the talks they had together. Hawkeye even broke through his natural reserve to tell De Montcey of his love for the chief's beautiful daughter Wanda and of the hope- lessness of his love because of the inferiority of his rank and also because he had as his rival Wolf, the chief's nephew who, because of this relationship was higher in the chief's favour. Wanda really liked Hawkeye better than Wolf, and he, aware of this fact, saw that his only chance for her affection lay in disgracing Hawkeye that he might fall in Wanda's estimation. One evening about the middle of summer, Hawkeye, returning from the missionaries' service was surprised to see a number of other Indians searching among his possessions. He angrily asked them what they were doing and one of them drew him aside and told him that The Sacred Snow-White Fawn's Pelt had been stolen and that they had traced the footsteps of the thief to that spot. Secure in the knowledge of his innocence, Hawkeye waited quietly while they finished their search, but what was his dismay when one of the Indians suddenly produced the lost pelt. Poor Hawkeye! He didn't know what to think! He knew he hadn't stolen the pelt, but who had? Then it came to him in a flash! This was Wolf's doing. He had sworn that he would ruin Hawkeye and this was his way of doing it. The shock seemed to deprive Hawkeye of all power of thought and action. He was dimly conscious that he had been surrounded by a number of warriors and that he was being led towards the council room. He entered and was thrust into a seat where he was left for some time with his four guards. Presently he began to realize that the room was gradually being filled by a crowd of people. He was made to stand and then he heard a voice speak- ing to him. Presently he sat down again but he didn't seem to realize what was going on. Then suddenly he came to life. The thing which brought him back to consciousness was the voice of the chief saying, To be expelled from the council forever and forfeit the name of a warrior. What did it mean? Oh, he remembered now. Wolf had taken the pelt and had hidden it in his robe! He must tell them that, but his chance was gone. Followed by a crowd of hissing women and disdainful warriors, he was driven from the council- room and from the camp, and what hurt him most was that Wanda seemed to despise him as much as the others. Left alone at last, he wandered out into the forest toward the great river. Seating himself he reiiected on the events that had taken place. What was the use of living? Scorned by Wanda and despised even by the women and children, what was there to live for now? Ah! that was the only way out! He would throw himself into the river and escape all further torment. Rising, he stretched his arms heavenward and cried: Oh Great Spirit, I--. He broke off, his quick ear detecting a footstep. Turning, he confronted Father De Montcey, the last person he wanted to see in this-the hour of his disgrace and shame. But it was impossible to feel resentful for De Montcey, laying a brotherly hand on his shoulder, led him to a seat on the rocks. For long hours they sat together thus on the rocks, this priest of God and this broken and disgraced man who had come to find that life was not worth living. In the early morning hours when the light was beginning to show on the eastern horizon, a watcher might have seen an Indian brave emerging from the woods with a radiantly happy face while from time to time he would repeat in a low, happy voice, There is much to live for-- much-much. PART II. The great day had arrived and the Indians were gathering in great num- bers at the meeting place. It was the big day of sports and games, looked forward to by every member of the tribe. They had all clustered together, talking and laughing, some seated on their horses, some standing and some sitting on the ground. The only one who had not joined thisgroup was a lone rider, seated on his horse, watching the others from his position at the edge of the precipice. This was Hawkeye 42 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK who, although he could not take part in the games, could not resist the temp- tation to come and watch. Suddenly, in the midst of their chatting and laughing, there was a great commotion. A rearing horse, a piercing scream and the whole assembly was in an uproar. Those who had presence of mind and courage enough to do so, turned in their terror to see what was really wrong. What they saw was a wild, frenzied horse plunging across the plain towards the great canyon, where certain death awaited it and Wanda, who clung in terror to the horse's neck. One of those who saw this danger was Wolf, who although he was rather mean and small-minded was no coward. Instantly perceiving Wanda's danger he flung himself at the horse's head as it dashed past. A shout of applause was raised by the crowd, but was soon hushed when the dismayed onlookers saw the form of 'tWolf fall limply to the ground and the horse go plunging on. The chief and several of the other warriors ran to Wolf to give their aid, but the eyes of the onlookers were fastened on the plunging ho1'se. Was there no hope, then? Hope was beginning to die in the hearts of the watchers, but suddenly some of them noticed Hawkeye, seated on his horse, out there by the precipice. But even this ray of hope soon faded. Was he not a traitor and a coward? He would never risk being knocked over the precipice, even to save Wanda! But they were wrong. Leaping from his horse Hawkeye ran a few yards forward so as not to be too near the edge of the precipice and then stood still, awaiting the approach of the maddened horse. He had not long to wait for the horse came plunging rapidly towards him. Calling to Wanda to hang on he leapt at the horse's head. He was more successful than Wolf had been and the onlookers saw, with a sigh of relief, that the horse was soon standing safe on the plain. Meanwhile the chief, who had been occupied attending to Wolf now rode across the plain to where Hawkeye and Wanda were standing. He advanced toward Hawkeye saying in a sorrowful voice: My brother I am sorry that we have so wronged you. Wolf has just confessed that he was the one who stole the pelt and that he hid it in your robe. After your recent act of bravery I am afraid there is much-almost too much-for you to forgive. Hawkeye looked up quickly, the light of great joy in his eye and having saluted his chief and Wanda he mounted his horse and rode quickly away. This seemed strange to the crowd but they did not know that for Hawkeye the happiest part of the day was yet to come. He had yet to visit Father De Montcey and tell him of his new happiness. Reaching the mission-house he found Father De Montcey in his garden and, rushing to him, he poured into the astonished man's ears his happy tale. It was not only a tale of happiness but it was also a tale of gratitude to the one who had saved him from destruction by his own band-who had saved him that he might enjoy the new-found happiness-this new-found glory! PART III. It was about a month after the incident just related and the feelings be- tween the white men and the Indians had not improved. On the contrary the Indians had become even more hostile to the white men. Although there had been no definite outbreaks among the Indians, the white men had become well aware of their hostility, and were doing their best to win their friendship. With this idea in view the leaders of the little settlement had planned a fair. To this fair both Indians and white men were invited. There were to be games and sports and the Indians were to be given presents. They reasoned that if the two races mingled together more the natural result would be a feeling of friendship. A good crowd had gathered and it seemed as if the plan might be a success when an event occurred which showed how utterly it had failed. About the middle of the afternoon Father De Montcey was standing. con- versing with a little group of Indians, one of whom was Hawkeye. During a 43 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK lull in the conversation Hawkeye turned around and began to watch the crowd. Suddenly he gave a violent start for he saw his chief standing upright not forty yards away with his musket pointed. He grasped the situation in a minute. The chief aimed to kill Father De Montcey. What could he do? He couldn't, within the Indian laws of honor, shoot his chief and he couldn't within the laws of love and gratitude stand by and see De Montcey killed. These thoughts passed through his brain like a flash and with the same rapidity he saw what he must do. The next moment De Montcey felt himself seized by the shoulders and thrust behind someone. Turning at the sound of a shot he saw Hawkeye fall to the ground. He fell on his knees beside him to see what he could do for him. But Hawkeye was dead--shot through the heart-having paid in the fullest measure his debt of gratitude. Dorothy Elson FUN AND CHAFF TO MAKE YOU LAUGH Don't cry girls and boys because vacation's over.

And just where did you say this boulder came from? enquired Jim Graham. The teacher quietly replied that the glacier brought it down. Then up spoke the inquisitive one again: And where did the glacier go? Oh, said the teacher, It went back after another boulder. I understand you'1'e not calling on the French teacher any more. No, Every time I was late, she made me bring an excuse from my mother. 44 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK QR ALE ' ATS FFRQM THE BENCH cor-4 .. 7 ' q,av e,, BWN OW sry 'wrss QVC' , L es 7. ,..Q,. i ,, .

Just as We go to press We learn that both our boys and girls debate in the third series, ie: the semi-finals. The girls won three debates out of four, the boys won one debate, Won two by default, and lost one. 45 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Form News FORM 1B POEM The 1B. pupils are said to be bright, So we take this privilege to prove it's right. Thora and Doris are ou1' Mutt and Jeff. And to a question are always deaf. Andrew and Lloyd are very shy And are always glad when the girls say good-bye. Margaret Ames is the rose of the room, She tells us what is the latest perfume. Edna Sales is our girl champ. this year, Hurrah for Edna, hear 1B cheer. Ed. Pottinger with the teachers can't agree, And thus causes them much misery. Evelyn Scott, a country lass, Answers questions for the rest of the class. Joe Meggs is the butcher's son, And is always mixed up in the mischief and fun. Bernard QHJ and Laurence are two good scholars, Whose vocabularies could not be much smaller. Kathleen and Helen are the tailor's twins. Which is which? they're alike as two pins. Ernest and John in cares and worries alike, Often after four have their lessons to write. Lorne and Doris are students to fear, For if you're impatient they get on their ear. Cecil and Elsie are mischiefs ,tis said, But coming to business they have good heads. Merland and Leta are Very smart girls, But both their heads seem to be in whirls. Harold Cunningham a studious lad would be, But since he has taken with the girls no hope can w The other two Helen's could not be much slower, But they get to the pass mark and often over. Harold and Allan are calm and quiet, We are sure you will not deny it. Ruth Lediett is last in her row, But in doing her lessons she is not quite so slow. George and Louis come from the farm, At 5 a.m. r-r-1'-rings their alarm. Have you heard of Kester and D'ick, Who, when given their lessons are sure to kick. Etherington and Rowlett are hunters of fame, But when they return they have no game. Dan Herlihy is an interrogative lad, Whose questions are becoming quite a fad. To write of ourselves would be waste of space, So we'll sign our names in some other place. 9 S99 Bernard Johnson and Andrew Thompson FORM II. POEM Now if you'll read this little poem I'm sure you'll be delighted, For Form II.'s names are given here And all their doings lighted. First there's George Aitkin a fine athlete, When he dashes the hundred he's hard to beat. There's also Bob Featherstone and Sylvan Apps When it comes to pole-vaulting they're no saps. 46 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Lawrence Cassady is our handsome sheik, At him the girls all want to peek. Bob Buck and Ada are a merry pair They take detention without a care. Then comes the three P's, Paper, Paste, and Paint They stand for Don Stewart, the form's little saint Then there's Stan. Smith, who sits in aisle three, He'll never get married 'cause he wants to be free Gord Miller wants to pass first every time, For, if he succeeds, with Manita he'll shine. Wilfred's plus-fours make us feel sad, But Hilda says they are the fad. Harry and Marie are small but bright, To see them together is quite a sight. Leone Gardner is une petite fille aussi But geometry theo1'ems she does not see. Since Clarence Maus to Form II. came, His head will hardly hold his brain. Donald Black is our mighty half-back But if he doesn't improve he'll get the sack. Lanky Jim Graham has oral comp. fame, But most of his speeches give you a pain. Jack Cunningham is a plumber's son, To fix your pipes he'll come on the run. Betty and Donnie are a queer pair, We think we'll show them at Paris Fair. Elsie Boakes is a girl slim and tall, For her any laddie is apt to fall. Marjorie and Rose are feeling very sad. They can't find a boy when they're the fad, But Winnifred has turned the trick, And sure looks pleased when out with Dick. The Schuyler twins are thin and sleek, And come in late just twice a week, While Allan Wells though twice their size, Is able in the morn to rise. Harold and Willie are lovers bold On Dorothy Rand they sure are sold, But Evelyn Woods and Agnes Wall Feel sure the boys are due to fall. Jean Reid is very fond of red, So George he wears it on his head Bertha Cracknell is jolly and kind To go with Llewellyn she doesn't mind. For music sweet just hear our Peter, He knows his tune, also his meter. Merv. Plomley can also play a tune, But he uses a dishpan and a spoon. Marshal D'eans is our grammar star, But when it comes to Latin he doesn't get far. Marie McKinnon is a quiet little maid, She's very prim and of course very staid. 47 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Elsie Richardson is in love they say, But the boy can't be found so he must be away. But Ernie McCormick is back to Form II. And we're watching closely to see what he'll do. Now if you've liked this little poem, And read it through without a groan, You're the kind of a man I'd like to meet, For that's what I call a mighty feat. FOURTH FORM HOTHOUSE Don't you like our hothouse collection? The flowers all suit us to perfectiong And though we do seem rather dumb- VVe keep the others going some. By the flower beside each name You may learn our present fame. Betty Aitken-Bouncing Bet. Marguerite Bringloe-Wild Gooseberry. Isobel Burt-Bittersweet. Margaret Flahiff-Hollyhock. Dorothy Flanagan-Tumble-weed. Reba Gilham-OX-eye Daisy. Agnes Oliver-Virginia Prune. Marion Parker-Century Plant. Irene Peterson-Smart-weed. Marie Taylor-Mum. Phyllis Telfer-Snap Dragon.

FORM 1A Now for 1-A the form of renown VVho never shirk from a Latin noun: First comes Albert who sits at the back, When it comes to good work there's nothing he lacks. Jack Bailey is an Irishman bold, W'ho is a shark at math'matics we're told, On the rugby team Denis is called Snap For he tackles like an old bear trap, But for Murray, the subject of history, Is to be sure, the greatest mystery, So's Ken Fraser in 1-A A serious chap I must say. Harold Kennedy is a big burly chap But in school he's kind of a sap. As Mike Newell is on the team, VVe shall not criticize heem. 48 Murray Lee PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Vern Martin is a man of might, And they say he's very bright. Jack Taylor is a farmer's son, But he's always around when there's mischief done Some say that Allanls gonna be a mess But I think that he'll be a big success. W'illiam says Here's to my Wife, live wonder who I wish him good luck and the same to you, In school I don't know about Donald's brain In fact he hasn't all he claims. You oughta see Gordon in the gym., He doesn't care about life or limb. You never can tell, 'cause teachers say Clifton is as bright as day. Last comes Tom of all the boys He certainly makes a lot of noise. Now for the girls, Who do the fancy whirls. The girls call Olga a right good scout, As she finishes all she goes about. Frances Garrat is short and sweet, Who comes to school five days a week. Kathleen Danford learned dancing a while And now you ought to see her go. Barbara with nifty feat , Can step half-way across the street. Ruby Ames is almost as long, I haven't it done, is her favorite song. Margaret is our little sheik, Who knows her lessons every week. Amy Cruickshank in class is so zealous, She makes the other girls quite jealous. Lorene Mackie has red hair, But all the boys think she is fair. Mildred Gould talked during French, And long ago received a front bench. Jean Black is a dark young lass, Whose ambition is to head the class. Now for Edleen who sits at the front, If she's lost the place just watch her hunt. Then there is Lillian an artist they claim, I've quite forgotten her last name. Alberta Holmes is our Algebra star, ago Who in from the country comes ever so far. Frances Gerow is neat as a pin, But for studies I dinna kin. Mildred Marsh from her work never shirks, But oft and again your collar she jerks. Little Lona is a dean, Nearly as big as a baby bean. Lenore Miller is a country girl, 'Whose ambition is to have fair curls. Sadie Howard is an athlete, But, however, she is very meek. Muriel is from the Wilson family, And her boy friend is very manly. Miss Brett does all her duties, Scolding all the little beauties. This ends the poem I wrote so fast, My name? Well, I shall write it last. Clarence VN ood 49 THE STAFF C.

Form Four! Clever Form! Irritated father: How is it, young man that I find you kissing my daughter? How is it, young man ? Alpheus: Great! Great! Joe: You're too conceited about your beauty. Tom: Why, no I'm not! I don't think I'm half as good looking as I really am. Donalda: Is it true that the sheep is the dumbest of all animals? Bob: Yes my little lamb. Alton: Would you care to go for a nice long walk? Dorothy R. ieagerlylz I should say I would. Alton: Please don't let me detain you! Dimps: Say, did you know I was a magician? Reba: Noi how come? Dimpsz I can turn a car into a driveway. Nurse: Whom were you operating on to-day?', Doctor: A fellow that had a golf ball knocked down his throat at the links.', Nurse: And who is that person waiting so nervously in the hall? A relative ? Doctor: No,, that's the golfer, Alpheus Lovett, he's waiting for his ball. Fred fto his fatherbz Did you go to Sunday School when you were a boy? Father: Yes, my son I always went to Sunday School. Fred: Well, dad, I think I'll quit going, it an't doing me any good, either. Hugh VVilson fell down one day and injured his hand. A week later, when he was getting better, he asked the doctor anxiously: When this hand of mine gets well shall I be able to play the banjo ?,' 'Tertainly you will, said the doctor. t'Thanks, you're a wonder, said Hugh. I never could before, but I've always wanted to.', 50 - PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK FIFTH FORM MENAGERIE Once upon a time V. Form was a very wicked class, and although the boys and girls were really kind at heart, otherwise they were atrocious. Teasing the younger pupils was a chief source of delight and if those innocent children did not obey their haughty commands, they were promptly set on the fountain. The poor teachers were driven to distraction by these roaring Ojibways, who were at one time hiding in the cupboard from them, at another sticking gum in their books. All day long they drew weird pictures on the walk, played with marbles or dumped the wastepaper basket to watch the janitor sweep it up. Now it happened that the inspector at this time was really a wicked fairy, and when he came to this school, renowned all over the country for its riots and upheavals, he determined to put a stop to it. As he entered those once- learned halls, he heard the awful commotion above him, and in his anger he took up his magic walking stick and cast a spell on the terrible Fifth Form. Alas! they were all changed to animals, and what a catastrophe. Alpheus' neck extended ten yards, towering above the rest, as he took the form of an elongated giraffe, while Ronald, reading Life in the corner, barked his de- light, as all fat seals do. Squeak, the monkey, gazing from his lofty perch on the window perceived Betty Sutherland, the turtle, waddling up the walk at ten-thirty, and also Donald Crozier, an old cart-horse, galloping in the front door pulling Porky Briggs fby a stringj who was grunting pathetically. The roaring man-eating tiger was no other than Joe, who threatened to devour any teacher who entered the room, frightening poor Helen Campbell, the contented cow, endeavouring to gracefully climb into her desk. Betty Burt very athletically rolled her bristling form into a little ball of fat, as the porcupine, to take her usual sleep under the radiator, while a grisly black bear, the former Helen Churchill, poked her with a compass. Terry the police dog, tried his utmost to keep order, but alas! at that moment, Fred and Wilma, who were hiding as usual in the cupboard from the teachers, were changed into a crocodile and an elephant, breaking the door and caving in the wall by their huge forms. Poor Phyllis, the hippopotamus, tried in vain to squeeze through the door and an old hen, formerly Jean, was fighting with awful Oscar, the osculating ostrich. . A terrible shriek was heard and in rushed Ernie the laughing hyena, as white. as a sheet. In his hyenic language he told them to run to safety, and Phyllis had just broken the door and climbed upon the teachers' desk, when in walked Ray, the skunk. At this time the inspector, thinking that they had learned their lesson, charmed them back to their natural forms and ever since the Fifth Formers have been obedient and good children. INTERVIEW WITH ARTHUR CULLUM With shaking knees and trembling hands, we entered the huge establish- ment of the Brantford Expositor Building at Paris. The angry click of twenty type-writers filled the otherwise calm air. We were met at the door by Arthur Cullum, who was convalescing nicely after his recent illness, and who had a Stroller cigarette, dangling loosely in the side of his mouth. He greeted us with a Latin phrase, and waved us into two roomy barrel chairs. VVe asked him his opinion on the problem of Advanced Theology, and the question of Oxford Bags for children in arms, and he replied very gravely: My dear sirs, as you doubtlessly know, the Senior High School Algebra states, that for all real value of X, there are certain equations whose solution may be more easily aHected by making a change in the co-ordinatesf' We were deeply impressed by his knowledge, and were going to ask some more serious questions, when his stenographer ente1'ed, and we were compelled to eave. 53 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK MESSAGES FROM THE DEPARTED Farming is much better than school, yet sometimes I long for some fun such as we had in 1B. -VValter G-b-rt.

INTERVIEW WITH ERIC APPS We dropped off a west-bound freight train at Detroit, and after clinging tenaciously on the back tire of several taxis, we finally entered the spacious assembly hall of the Michigan University. There was Cyril Apps, farranged in a salmon-coloured shirt, which was slowly fading to a crushed strawberryh, pondering over his four thousand word criticism on the works of H. G. Wells. He seemed pleased to see us and kicked our shins affectionately while saying: I am deeply interested in the complicated question of the extermination of the mealy-bugs from the tripe of Alaska. As I intend to speak on this sub- ject at the next meeting of the Antedilevian Society, headed by Professor Gangrene, I would be greatly indebted to you if you would assist me. We asked him how he felt, and he replied:- I am suffering from a cyanotic congestion of the incomnensurable capil- laries of my voluminous physiognomy, and this renders my appearance as black as dichlorotetrahydroxybenzene. -This was too much for us, we took the east-bound freight back home again, and with a sigh, we entered our noble halls of learning once more. 54 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Letters to the Editor Dear Editor- My name is Dimps. When I was a child I had huge dimp- les, but now since I'm growing up they are fading with the years. How shall I regain my lost charm? Your fading Rose, Q D1MPs. Dear Fading Rose,- My child you're not eating the proper food. Take five raw potatoes a day, and also one large hubbard squash, well cooked, with a cake of yeast, which will make you rise and therefore fill out your gaunt cheeks. If your hair tends to rise too, use Stacomb. On rising, rub the face vigorously and violently for half an hour with a mullen leaf and you will regain all your faded complexion. Sincerely, THE EDITOR. Dear Editor,- I am letting my hair grow. How shall I do it? BETTY SUTHERLAND. Dear Miss Sutherland,- D'on't cut it, of course. THE EDITOR. Dear Editor,- I fear I am in love. What shall I do? GORDON OSCAR THOMSON. Dear Gordon Oscar Thomson,- Speak to her only with thine eyes, Give her fair speechless messages, is all I can suggest. THE EDITOR. Dear Editor,- Realizing your marvellous mathematical ability, I take this opportunity to ask a favour of you. Alas, I am in dire distress and all because of this problem: A car KXJ starts out from A to B ten minutes before a second car Qyl leaves B for A. The speed of X is twice that of y and the speed of y is in- versely proportional to the number of hospitals along the route. X goes to- wards P, halting every 4 13!15 minutes, and y goes towards R, halting fre- quently. If 'both are held up in a trafic jam, state which car arrives at its destination first. Yours, THOMAS BRIGGS Dear Mr. Briggs,- I am sorry that you are ill. Might I suggest Beecham'S pills eight times a day as a refreshment? Algebraically yours, THE EDITOR. 55 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK FORM IV-CSenior Middle Schooll Helen Campbell-M.S.-Alg. 2, Phys. 1, Lat. Authors C, Lat. Comp. 1, Fr. Authors 2, Fr. Comp. 1.

PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK La Cinquieme Classe Fait un Pique-nique La Cinquieme Classe desirait faire un pique-nique parce que c'etait leur dernier an dans les salles d'instruction du lycee de Paris. Puisque les eleves memeles plus influents ne pouvaient pas pendre un conge pour cette occasion importante il etait convenu de le faire dans leur etude quand il n'y avait ni institutrice ni professeur presents. Par consequent on ecrit les invitations et les envoya at tous les eleves de la classe. Frederic Pascoe qui est plein d'idees dreles Suggera qu'on fit le pique-nique le vendredi 13 mai. Elisabeth Burt qui est editeur de notre Year Book l'avait aide at faire les plans. Alphee Lovett et Ronald Gorrie etaient tres faches parce qu'on ne voulait pas leur permettre dlinviter leurs amies de Brantford. La-dessus ils dirent qu'ils ne voulaient pas venir mais ils finirent par le faire pour obtenir des rafraichissements. Hugues Wilson voulait inviter aussi son amie de la Quatrieme Classe. On entend dire cependant qu'il aime Wilma Carr qui nous aide beaucoup at nos debats. Gordon Thompson et Terence Whitbread, deux savants de la classe n'aiment pas l'idee de ce pique-nique mais quand Ray Harmer leur dit qu'il venait seulement a cause des rafraichissements ils deciderent de venir aussi. On arrangea qu'Helene Campbell et Jeanne Stockton chanteraient Les Jours d'Ecole accompagne d'Ernest Gould sur sa Guimbarde. Quand on demanda a Phylee Grant d'aider a leur programme tout ce qu'elle dit c'etait sauce de pommesf' Helene Churchill et Elisabeth Sutherland sont deux brunettes de la classe et bienqu'elles ne prissent pas parti a la programme ils ne manquerent pas d'assister a l'eVenement important. Joel Eby et Thomas Briggs deciderent d'apporter une epreuve instantanee pour faire des portraits de leur camarades fou casser l'epreuve instantaneeb. Les garcons habiles pensaient qu'ils apporteraient les rafraichissements et bien entendu les filles etaient bien d'accordg mais celles-ci se demandaient quelle sorte de dejeuner ils prepareraient. Enfin le jour arriva. Les rafraichissements furent cachees dans l'armoire et tout etait pret. Il y avait un air inexplicable d'excitation dans la salle et tout le monde etait content quand la derniere institutrice fut sortie. Alors ils commencerent at jouer aux billes qu'on avait apportees. Quand Frederic Pascoe eut gagne toutes les billes des autres il dit que leur programme se donnerait. Ainsi commencerent a chanter Helene et Jeanne. Mais mal- heureusement le maitre Superieur se trouvait dans la deuxieme Classe fla salle voisinej. Il entendit le bruit et vint voir ce qui se passait. Il ouvrit la porte et demanda aux eleves une explication. Silence! On ne dit rien excepte le maitre superieur. Il faut marcher tout de suite a la DGUXIOIUG Classe. Vous y ferez vos devoirsf' Et les rafraichissenients? Mais oui-on les mangea apres quatre heures mais vous savez la saveur etait perdue. Marie Taylor LE PRINTEMPS Heureux qui voit passer l'hiVer Paraitre le gazon Fleurir chaque hoblon Bien des coeurs se sont emus De ces signes de joie Que le printemps envoie.

Please, Miss, I heard father say they smelt it. Roy: My girl has a heart like a hotel-room for everybody. Every time she sees a taxi she gets paralyzed from the hips down. She has pullman teeth-an upper and a lower. She uses flour for talcum powder and when she gets hot she breaks out into biscuits. 61 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Registration List CFall Term 1928D FORM V.

NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS My resolutions for 1929 Have taken quite a different lineg And now the new year has begun, I'm trying to make my school-Work fun. Latin and French are no longer a drudge, I eat them up like so much fudge, I used to toil o'er mathematics, But now they're merely acrobatics. O'er literature dull, I once did pine, But now I find the stuff sublime, From chefmistjry the mist has fled, Success is but a jump ahead. With the reason Why it's all such fun, I'll end the story I've just begun, Perhaps my secret you have guessed, With the best of teachers I am blessed. Ernest: A sensible man doubts everything. Only a fool is certain of what he savsf' Gordon: Are you sure?

PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Paris, nmans, and Prosperit Paris and Penmans have a lot in common. Paris is Penman's home town. And Penmans exerts such a great influence on the Town that when Penmans is prosperous Paris is also prosperous. This fact alone is sufficient reason for all Paris boosters to buy Penmans products. But there is still another reason. The other reason is that Penmans Underwear, Hosiery and Sweaters are famed all over Canada for quality and value. No competitive product offers a bigger return for your money. These are points which every citizen will do well to remember-for the benefit of him- self and the benefit of Paris. 78 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Glhriatmaa C5615 KEYSTONE ROSE or BLUE PEARL FRENCH IVORY TORTOISE SHELL YARDLEY'S and HUDNUTS TOILET SETS KODAKS CUT FLOWERS SHEAFFERS PENS Russell Sandercock Rexall Druggist Junction Garage and SALES ROOM Capron Street EXPERT REPAIRS ON ALL MAKES OF CARS BATTERY SERVICE ACETYLENE WELDING P.

PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK II FOREWORD Is learning your ambition? There is no royal road: Alike the peer and peasant Must climb to her abode: Who feels 'the thirst for knowledge, In Helicon may slake it, If he has still the Roman will To find a way, or make it! Saxe. Education is training of mind, body and spirit. No one expects a person to develop his physical powers fully in a short time and without much exercise, difficult and at times unpleasant. It is equally true that it takes years to bring the mental powers to the highest state of development. Mental growth is the result of concentrated study which may not always be a pleasure and usually requires great will-power. If a student really studies, his mind develops and he acquires mental power. The longer and harder he studies, the greater power he develops. The high school course is difficult and few, very few, can succeed without much home-study. It is true that a few can pass the examinations without this extra effort but frequently they fail in life because they have not received the mental training that comes only from mental exercise. At P. H. S. we encourage athletics, debating, oratory and the literary society because these activities train our students for living. It takes moral courage to stand before an audience, it requires self-control to play the game and lose, at times students must make sacrifices for the good of the school. Thus, We try to inculcate toleration, moderation and self-control. Paris High School does not train men and women for professions nor for business positions but it does give them a training, an education, a mental development, that will enable them to master the specialized training in the universities and normal schools required for admission to the professions. This same training fits students to become exceptionally successful at business colleges. Many university graduates are appointed to high positions not because they will use the information gained at college but because they have acquired the ability to master the intricate details of large organizations. To a lesser degree our graduates with a high standing on Honour Matricula- tionlsxaminations are fitted to rise to high executive positions in the business Wor . Many students feel that they are unable to finish their high school course, others seem unable to pursue their studies after graduating. These should have the Roman will to find a Way or make it. The business colleges give night classes. The universities give extra-mural instruction whereby matricu- lants may obtain a B. A. degree by home-study without attendance at the university. Thus there is a road to learning for all who will to climb. Oh, if we draw a circle premature, Heedless of far gain, Greedy for quick return of profit, suie Bad is our bargain. That low man seeks a little thing to do, Sees it and does it: This high man, with a great thing to pursue Dies ere he knows it. That low man goes on adding one to one His hundred's soon hit: This high man, aiming at a million, Misses an unit. Browning.
