Bell, principal from 1898-1921, whose exact classical scholar- ship and contagious enthusiasm for advanced education, fostered such ideals among' the graduates of the last generation, and caused the citizens of Paris: to be justly proud of their High School- It seems peculiarly fitting that this Year Book, a revival after a lapse- of two years, should be dedicated to the memory of Mr. E. W. Moss, whose work as principal. of the Paris Public Schools 41914-19343 endeared him to all with whom he came in contact. To his pupils, he was ever a friend and counsellor, to his teachers, an inspiration and guide, to his fellow towns- men, an unselfish and self-sacrificing leading citizen who gave all his leis- ure time to the work of his various offices in the educational, fraternal and philanthropic organizations of the community. None but his most intimate friends will ever appreciate the marvellous courage with which he carried on his work during' the last four years of this life, often while suffering intense pain. Without complaining, without self-pity, he worked for the good of others until the last summons came. As the limited accommodation at the Anglican Church made it quite impossible for his many ex-pupils at P. H. S. to attend the funeral, the staff and students held a simple memorial service earlier in the day in our own school. After a suitable hymn and a reading from the tenth chapter of St. Luke's gospel, the principal said: We are gathered this morning to honour the memory of one of God's gentlemen who gave his best for education and for the good of the com- munity. I read the story of the Good Samaritan because Mr. Moss has ever been a friend to those in need. You who knew him well recall many in- stances of kindness shown by him. You who did not know him well have heard of many such acts. May the memory of his life be an inspiration to all of us to consecrate our lives to the services of humanity, With this thought in our minds, we shall stand in silent tribute to the memory of our departed friend. Mr. Moss's many friends among the staff and students of Paris High School feel honoured that they are permitted to dedicate this Year Book to his memory. C.

These books will become valuable to those who are now passing through their training period, and will be treasured in years to come. I am glad of the measure of success which has attended all your activi- ties during the two years that have passed since last you published a Year Book. The Beard of Education has felt that there have been hardships in several ways, owing to overcrowding: but teachers and scholars alike have risen to the occasion, and perhaps these difficulties have only been step- ping-stones in the development of courage and will-power. Although you have had disadvantages, you have many things to be thankful for. The health of the school, generally speaking, has been good, due in no small way to the excellent physical training you are getting through sport and gymnasium work. I must also add a word along educational lines. Canada is calling for young and fresh minds to come forward and help bring back that prosper- ity which we are all hoping for. You have had splendid opportunities, and it should be your aim to fit yourselves for whatever lies before you. Just one more thought. In order to be successful in life you must live clean, honest lives. During the Great War our young men gave health, wealth, and, in many cases, life itself, in order that our beloved country might be free, and that you, the young people of to-day, might have a chance to develop along lines that make for a great people and a great coun- try. True success lies, not in what wealth we accumulate, but in living lives that will be helpful to our neighbors and an honour to our God. Let us, then, be up and doing With a heart for any fate. Still achieving, still pursuing Learn to labour and to wait. V George L, Telfer. THE BOARD OF EDUCATION George L. Teller, Chairman. John F. Cameron Dr. F. H. Jeffrey Col. A.

Qflhrin wart jlllluss Mr. Eldrin Wert Moss was born in 1883 at Wales, in Stormont County, Ontario. He spent his early boyhood in that town, and attended the Public School there. On graduating from Morrisburgh High School, he attended the Ottawa Normal School. He taught six years in Eastern Ontario .first in a rural school just outside of Morrisburg, and later at South Mountain, where he did Continuation School work. In October 1912, he came to Paris as Junior Fourth teacher. After two years, he was appointed to the p1'in- cipalship of the Paris Public Schools-a position which Mr. Moss held until his death. In August of 1917, Mr. Moss was married to Miss Margaret M. Shep- herd. In the years which followed, two children, Douglas, and David, were born to them. In 1930, Mr. Moss underwent a serious operation at Hamilton Hospital, from which he appeared to make an excellent recoveryg but, later, he was again stricken. Despite his infirmity, Mr. Moss continued to fulfill his du- ties, struggling bravely forward as long as he could. Shortly before his death, he was again made a patient at the Willett Hospital. Even ther Mr. Moss did not lose hope, his mind was with the work to which he longed to return. On Sunday evening, April 15, 1934, Mr. Moss passed quietly away. His work was completed. Although everyone admired and respected him, few of us realized until then, how great was the esteem in which he was held by his fellow men. All his former pupils realized that he was their friend, and adviser. His associate teachers miss him greatly, as do all who knew him. The numerous offices which Mr. Moss held, bear witness to the esteem in which he was held. He was a prominent official of St. James' Anglican Church, and gave considerable time to the Boy Scout work of that Church. He was a Past President of Brant County Teachers' Association, treasurer of the local branch of the Children's Aid, and a member of the Library Board and the Horticultural Society. Mr. Moss was also a member of two lodges, St. John's A.F. and A.M., and Grand River Lodge, I.0.0.F. He lived quietly-for others-not for himself. His work was always done efficiently and to the best of his ability. Mr. Moss's greatest joy in life was making someone else happy. That best remembered portion of a good man's life, His little, nameless, unremembered acts Of kindness, and of love. Wordsworth Tintern Abbey . Edgar J.

' 45- -wwf., ' PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK l1itur'5 age In a Year Book dedicated to the memory of Mr. E. W. Moss, it is indeed fitting that we should write an appreciation of his character, for although always unobtrusive, he was an outstanding member of our community. When I first entered Public School, I came to know Mr. Moss, as did the other students, as scmecne whom we were to look up to. That impres- sion never changed. It still persists in my mind, and I am sure that all my schoolmates feel the same. We always honoured Mr. Moss and respected his judgment, Although I was never in Mr. Moss's class, yet I knew enough of him to honour him and obey him. We, as students, did not realize then as we do now that he was untiringly patient, always interested in his students, schol- astic welfare, just in his decisions, and perservering to the end. I Mr. Moss always did his duty, and yet not because it was duty, but be- cause he loved to be of service and give of his strength to help others. On some days he must have been tried to the limit of endurance and be- yond: yet his creed was always to act and to serve. Carefully he kept Ambi- tion's flame alight in the minds of his pupils, and joyed in the trust that was his of moulding them for the life that was to be theirs. For Life was before them, but behind him. Yet experience of pain and suffering never chang- ed his attitude, and he always faced the future with courage and determina- tion. And so we pay tribute to the memory of Mr. Moss, and know that great is his reward. For peace will walk with him along the way, And sit with him while gentle shadows fall: Oh, it is sweet towards the end of day To hear the voice of Home, and heed its call. i...,...1...-.,. We have always included in our Year Book a biography of our graduates in the year when they leave us. This time, however, we wish to go a little farther, and add a write-up of two of our graduates of recent years-one, the most brilliant scholar who ever left our school, and the oth- er, the most brilliant athlete. Sydney Gould, renowned student, and Sylvanus Apps, famous athlete, you have a well-deserved place in our Year Book. , Laura M. Wilkin, 5 Editor-in-Chief. In bb PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Graduates MARGARET HARLEY BUCK An open-hearted maiden, true and pure. The permanent visitor who arrived at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Buck on June 10, 1916, was given the name of Margaret Harley. The bur- den of being baby sister to five big brothers was a lot to place on such small shoulders. But Margaret proved equal to the task, and survived all the trials and tribulations. At the age of six she tripped off to Keg Lane School. From here she graduated in 1929 with honours, winning the first Penman Scholarship. Inspired with a desire for greater knowledge, she graced the halls of P. H. S. for the next five years. Margaret took a keen interest in every- thing, but chiefly the four o'clock bell. She was very enthusiastic where basketball and softball were concerned, and showed her interest in .sports to such an extent that she was elected president of the Girls' Athletic As- sociation during the 1933-34 term. She was also a worthy member of the staff of the Quill. 1 , , Margaret has her complete junior and senior matrlculation, and has forsaken P. H. S. for other interests. To say that she is missed would put it mildly. At present she is taking a secretarial course at Day's Business Col- lege in Brantford. She hopes soon to go out into the world as a woman of business. We all wish Margaret the best of success in her chosen pro- fession. E L M VERNA LOBEEN BUCK Q a Her smiles, her sweet and charming way, Turn clouds to sunshine, night and day. On February 20, 1918, another care was added to those of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Buck, Keg Lane. It came with the arrival of a little girl whom they called Verna Loreen. Her first few years were filled with childish mischief. At the age of five, Verna began her school career at Keg Lane School. She was so clever that she skipped a couple of grades. Verna also receiv- ed honourable mention in public speaking. Passing her Entrance with honours in 1930, Verna, known to all her friends as Tom , enrolled at good old P. H S. She took an ac'i rt . . ve pa m school affairs. She was chosen captain of the softball team, anti played can the school basketball team. Vema also helped out on Field Day. The 1 . I . . ee Club chose her as its president for the spring term. Everywhere Verna went, her sunny disposition won for her many friends. At noon hours, she would be the centre of a merry group of stu- dents. This year Vema completed her Junior Matriculation. At present she is remaining at her home, and in her spare time she is following her study of music. We all wish her the best of luck. l J. c. JEAN EDGAR BLACK On the cold stormy morning of January 23, 1914, Jean Edgar, the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Black, inhaled her first breath. At an early age, desirous of visiting new lands, she moved to Strathclair, Mani- toba, where she learned the arts of walking and talking. When the time came for her to tread the paths of learning, her parents returned to Paris, and Jean enrolled at Central School. She passed her Entrance in 1928. The following autumn she entered High School, where she attended faithfully, completing her junior matriculation in June, 1934. At present Jean is at home, and we wish her every success in whatever she undertakes. 6 D. E.

Jonathan, or as most of us know him, Pat , the son of William S. and Margaret Bailey was born on March, 1915, at Greenesland Co., Antrim, Ire- land. Jack attended the Model School at Carrickfergus, and later spent six years at Wallace Memorial School at Lisburn. Jack, being unable to content himself with life in the .land of the Sham- rock, came to Canada in 1928, and entered the noble halls of P. H. S. While Jack was here, he proved a very able scholar, and we will al- ways remember his jovial character. Jack completed his Junior Matriculation and his Upper School in J unc. 1934. He is now engaged in the noblest of all professions, that of tilling the soil. Good luck, Jack. Yoiu' many friends at P. H. S. wish you the best of success in the future. H. A. K. LORNE SYDNEY BROOKS ' Darne Fortune cast a benevolent smile upon the home of Mr. and Mrs. Sydney Brooks, near Muir, Ontario, on the 22nd of January, 1916. It was on this date that Lorne made his first acquaintance with this mystery call- ed life. For the next few years he ran his father's farm until he Was the age of five. At this point in his life, his father decided he could get along without him so his parents started him to school at Muir. Here Lorne laid the foundations for his career of winning scholarships, but Muir was doomed to misfortune for Lorne and his family moved to their present home on the second concession of Brantford, just out the Mile Hill , from Paris. South Ward School was the first in Paris to benefit by this move, but Lorne was anxious to favour as many schools as he could with his presence, so he next attended Queen's Ward, and finally Central Public Schools. At the age of thirteen, he passed his entrance, winning the Third Penman Scholarship. During his sojourn in P. H. S., Brookey was active in many spheres. He played on the W. O. S. S. A. Basketball Team, he was the human steam- roller of the rugby team, and he was always active in field day events. He won the oratorical contest in 1931 and although he did not win the district contest, we wish to congratulate him. In the academic phase, Lorne reigned supreme, he was proficient in all subjects, but when it came to Mathematics, even Einstein's throne was in danger. When he graduated in 1934, he won a scholarship at Western Univer- sity worth S250 for Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Physics and two oth- er pzgsliilmked first also for: Chemistry or Physics, English or Mathematics, and three other papers. He ranked first also for. Mathematics. However, having won the first scholarship, the others reverted to the next highest. AS a result of this scholarship, he is now attending Western University. We expect to hear great things about him in the future and we Wish to take this opportunity to say: Good 1uck ! 7 M. A. McG. PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK AGNES JEAN CAVAN Who is a friend both kind and true, A general favourite with us, too. On June 16, 1915, the stork, that sly old bird, paid its first visit at the home of Mr. and Mrs. David Cavan, dropping off a baby girl, whom they later called Agnes Jean: Jean spent the first seven years of her life at home, helping her moth- er keep houseg but in 1922 she was forced to leave these carefree days be- hind, and begin her school life. After spending seven years at the South. Ward, Q,ueen's Ward, and Central Schools of Paris, she passed the Entrance Examinations with Honours in 1929. Although Jean did not play an active part in the school events, she was always ready to lend a helping hand, During five years she spent at. Paris High School, her sunny disposition did not fail to win for her a place in the hearts of many friends, In 1934, Jean graduated with complete Junior Matriculation. But Jean has not said good-bye to good old school days, for this year she is attending Day's Business College at Brantford. Her High School education, together with her present training, should enable her to follow' a successful and pro- fitable business career. Her old Fourth Form friends wish her every success. V. L. B. HAROLD ETHERINGTON HTigerU HNip9l Harold, the third son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Etherington, first saw the light of day on September 19, 1914, in Paris-Prettiest Town in Canada. Nip. as he was later nicknamed, began his school career at the age of seven. 1-le attended all three public schools-for two years South Ward tried to rid him of his childish pranks, then Queen's Ward- held his atten- tion for Shree years, before he finally made his way down to Central School to complete his public school education. lt was not until the fall term of 1928 that Harold honoured dear old P. H. with his presence. He spent six years under its famous walls, learn- ing the finer arts of living before he graduated in 1934, While attending P. H. S., Nip won many friends, and seldom lost any lsauf les institutricesb. Harold has always been a fond lover of books. To-day, one may find him spending his spare time in the Public Library, b Whate'er may be your profession in life, good luck to you, Harold, old oy. A. B. F. ALEXANDER BELL FERGUSON Alexander Ferguson, more commonly known as Scotty to his many friends, was born in Paris, May 16, 1916. He is the second son of Mr. and Mrs. A. Ferguson. He started his public school career at the armouries in 1922. In 1924 he moved into Central School, and five years later he passed his Entrance. In September of 1929 he wended his way to the renowned P. H. S. The first year he took his place along with the rest of the irst formers, absorb- ing much knowledge and laying an excellent foundation for his future years. When the second year rolled around, he began to make his presence known in sporting circles. He carried the red and black colours in track competi- tion, but his outstanding performances were in basketball, for he played on the school team during the last three years. He also is a softball pitcher of renown, having played on two junior championship teams in as many years. While at school, 'Scotty had quite a musical career, playing in the Paris Band and the school orchestra and since graduating he was naturally turned to music as a vocation. He is now playing in Fern.

On the last day of the year 1913, 'Old Father Time' brought little Wil- lie into the light of day. He was a fine little fellow, and for the first few years of his life he was able to keep himself busy with little tasks about the farm. At the age of six he bcgan to broaden his little mind by attending Keg Lane School. It was here that Willie first began to learn the art of stock- judging, at which he later became an expert. In 1925, he won a trip to Guelph for judging at the School Fair. In 1926, he graduated from this little school, and in the fall began his career at Paris High School. After attending this school for two years, he left to work on the farm, but unable to resist the attractions of our House of Rest , he returned in 1930. Again he began his judging. In 1931, he won a trip to the Royal Win- ter Fair in Toronto, during which time he was a government guest at the Royal York Hotel. In 1933, he was crowned with the highest honours- a trip to Chicago, and in the same year hc was a member of the Brant County Judging Team. In 1934, Willie graduated from Paris High School, and is now studying Agriculture on a farm a mile north of Paris. Good luck! Willie!

Although he was born on an unlucky day, Mur- -ray's fortune was not lessened in the least, and his arrival certainly was good news to his father. Murray, for the first six years of his life, acted as chief supervisor on his father's farm, four miles north of Paris on No. 24 Highway. After re- ceiving his preliminary education in the little red school-house at Wrigley's orners, he entered High School in 1929. For the next five years his sunny smile brightened the halls of P. H. S., and during this time he won many friends. He was a clever student and a member of the 1932 track team. Murray is now at home on the farm, using his geometry deductions to cutivate the fields, his French to milk the cows, and his Latin to make the hens lay feggs?b. We are all certain that he will make a prosperous, up-to- date farmer, and join in wishing him every possible success in his chosen profession. T- W. W. G. JOHN HAROLD HIGGINS Always smiling and cheerful, to everyone a friend. John Harold Higgins, better known as Speed to his many friends, gave forth his first squeal on May 14, 1913, in our fair town of Paris. He was the second son of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Higgins. He entered the Paris Separate School at the age of 'tix and passed his Entrance in 1927. Thereupon he entered our halls of learning in quest of higher education. Throughout his sojourn here he impressed one by his quiet cheerful- ness. For everyone he had a cheery smile, and he was never known to frown or gi-ouch. He also took part in the social activities of the school life, and at our At Home he was always a prominent figure. In basket- ball he took an active part, and although he was never a brilliant star he was Iallwagg anxious gotkplay the game.

DELMAR WALTER nnfr Delmar Kipp was born June 13, 1916, in the village of Princeton. He spent the first few years of his life in ease and comfort, but at the tender age of five, he was sent off to the Princeton Public School. There he toiled over his studies until the year 1929. In this eventful year, he passed his Enrance and embrarked on his high school career. This seemed to pro- gress quite favorably, and in the year 1933, after four years of hard work mixed with sports, he graduated from Princeton Continuation School. Then determined to secure more knowledge before beginning his struggle with life, he enrolled' at Paris High School. This year he is graduating from Paris High School, and intends to set- tle down and look after his farm. He has always been very much interest- ed in sports, and his favourite pastime is hunting. In fact, in any of his spare moments, one may glimpse him heading across the fields with his gun over his shoulder. L- R. V.

Murray McGill, noted musician, past Editor-in-Chief of the Quill, and ex-President of the Literary Society is the kind of student that Paris High School simply must appropriate. From the day of his birth, the seventeenth of January, 1916, the gods have Watched over Murray and directed his life along useful paths. The first was the path from the house to the barn on his father's farmg the se- cond was the path to the Stone School, which he trod from his sixth to his twelfth year. He kept to this narrow way so diligently that he won the First Penman Scholarship at his Entrance examinations In P. H. S., Murray displayed his outstanding ability b winnin th , , Y 8 e QIILUIIIOI' Clgatorical contest and, two .years later, the McCormick Matriculation nze urray held an enviable position in the social and literary life of the school, he made friends with everyone and was liked by all. This fact is pro- ven, because Murray was elected President of the Literary Society twice and was Editor-in-Chief of the Quill twice. After having run the race and finished the course at Paris High School by delivering the Va1edictorian's address, Murray has entered on his degree course at the Ontario Agricultural College in Guelph. We all wish that his climb on this new path will take him to well de- served success and happiness. The shining throne is waiting But he alone can take it Who says with Roman firmness .

For six years, Connie, as she was known to her friends, played in sand piles, and amused herself with paper dolls. In 1922 she began her quest for knowledge. This led her through four different public schools, all in Paris, until, at the age of twelve, she passed with honours her examinations for entrance into High School. In five years more, she had completed full Junior Matriculation and Honour Matriculation in nine papers. As she was clever, it was unfortunate that illness prevented her from writing her examinations last year. Credit, the highest percentage ever giv- en to those who fail to try the examinations, was granted her on her class standing throughout the year. This year Constance is staying at home in Paris. I am sure that her school-mates join with me in wishing her success and good luck in the fu- ture. QV - L. J. c. H 3 3 J VERNON WILFRED MARTIN Verne is a prominent Paris boy, and needs no introduction. He is the eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Martin, and was born on April 4, 1916. At the age of six, this little blonde-haired boy decided it was high time he had started on his search for knowledge, and so he began his school-boy career at Paris Public School. For six years he graced the halls of this school where he was noted for his novel methods of getting into mischief. In 1928, due to his ever-increasing thirst for knowledge, he left public school and started his career of fame at P H S During his sta at P H. S. . . . y , , which we wish could have been longer, he took a leading part in ali our school activities and held practically every office in both the Athletic and Literary Societies. In 1929, Verne began to show his ability as an athlete by winning the Junior Athletic Championship. During the fall term of 1931, Verne had charge of the Classified Ads section of the Quill and was on the Year Book Committee. The sam he Won the Intermediate Athletic Championship. e year' 1933 was Verne's big year as well as his last. During this year, Verne was president of the Literary Society for the Spring term. Once again he showed his athletic ability by winning the Senior Athletic Championship, d b t ' ' an y s aI'I'1I1g in both the basketball and rugby teams. At present Verne is in New York taking a course in printing. We all join in extending to him our heartiest congratulatiops, and in wishing him every success. I V D. M. JOSEPH FRENCH LEOROY MEGGS 3 Joseph, third son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Meggs was born on March 31, 1915 at Falkland. His first few years were spent in keeping the Meggs household in a state of excitement, until at the age of six he broadened the scope of his activities to include Paris Public School. In 1928 he was suc- cessful in passing the Entrance Examinations, and thereupon he entered these our noble halls of learning. . At P. H. S. Joe proved himself an industrious student, and was a well- known and well-liked personality. In school he preferred the study of Ianguagesg in his spare time he turned to hunting, and the enjoyment. of outdoor life. ln 1934 he graduated with complete Senior Matriculation, and is now studying Commerce and Finance at the University of Toronto.

QuQe a disturbance was created in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Miller upon the arrival of their first and only daughter, Lenore, Who' first saw the light of day on April 112, 1915. During the pre-school age childish mischief took up most of her spare time. u O At the age of seven she began her quest for knowledge, if such it was, at Moyle's School. In 1928 she gave up this carefree life to enter Paris High School, passing her Entrance with Honours. During her six years of High School life, Lenore laughed her way into the hearts of all who knew her. In 1932 she won Mrs. J. K. Martin's Scholarship for proficiency in Junior Matriculation papers. Being a good student herself, Lenore was al- ways eager to help someone elseg thus, she spent most of her last year in teaching some fifth-form boys intricate problems of mathematics. However, she did not spend all her time in this manner because she served as fifth form reporter of The Quill during three terms. This year Lenore graduated with complete Junior and Honour Matricu- lation. At present Lenore is amusing herself at her home, but in the near future she expects to enter Hamilton General Hospital. Her many friends wish her every success in her chosen lplrofesgon. HELEN PRUSS Helen was born on June 4, 1916. Her home was on the fifth conces- sion cf Blenheim, about two and a half miles south-west of Drumbo. At the age of five, she began her education at the Public School of Springhill, about a mile from her home. Here she attended school for seven and a half years, and at the age of thirteen she tried her Entrance at the Drumbo Continuation School and was successful in passing her examinations. The next fall she entered High School at Drumbo, and spent four successful years there. During this time she drove a horse to school. She scarcely ever missed a day, and was seldom late. At the end of four years, she had com- pleted her Junior Matriculation and had graduated from Drumbo Continuaf tion School. She planned to attend P. H. S., and in her year there gained nine subjects for her Senior Matriculation. Not satisfied with the results of her labours, she did not wish to end her education there. At the Hamilton Normal School she can still be seen bending over a desk, deep in the study of grammar and arithmetic. So kind and gentle the livelong day She makes all happy who come her way. M. R. MADGE ROUNDS Madge was born on February 7, 1916. Her home was situated on the tenth concession of Blenheim, about four miles north-east of Drumbo. She resided there until she was four, and then she went with her parents to hve about half a mile north of Drumbo. From here her first steps toward an edu- cation began at the Public School at Drumbo. ln three years' time she mov- ed again with her parents to the eighth concession, where her home still is. She remained a pupil at the same school, passed her Entrance at the age of thirteen, and entered the Continuation School. For four years she plodded through the Wearisome routine of ,mathematics, languages and agriculture, and in the end gained her Junior Matriculation. With the ambition to rise still higher, she continued her studies at Paris High School, and in one year completed her course of nine subjects for her Senior Matriculation. Not yet willing to leave her studies, she decided to enter Normal School, and for the 1934-35 term will be found still bending over her books. With a wish to put her name on the pages of Time She bends o'er her studies from five until nine. H.

Dorothy, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Rutherford, first awakened to the light of day on July 31, 1916, at Hillview Farm. She spent the first few years of her life playing with her elder broth- er, and received the nickname Jimmy. ....., ,.... . At the age of six she began her quest for knowledge at the South Ward School, and she finished her public school studies at Queen s Ward and Cen- tral Schools. In 1929, Dorothy passed her Entrance examinations, and then attended Paris High School for the next five years. She completed her Junior Ma- triculation at the end of four years. The following year, she returned to school to take up Commercial studies. At present she is working at the Paris Creamery. We wish her cw success. J. E. B. WILFRED RYERSE On April 29, 1917, Wilfred Ryerse made his first appearance at Simcoe where he lived for the next five years. His parents then moved to a farm south of Waterford and here, at the age of six, Wilfred began his ed'-1Caf101'1 at the Cherry Valley School. It was at this little country school, no doubt, that he laid the foundation for his future studies, which already have helped him win many honours. In 1927, his parents moved to Princeton, and here Wilfred again resum- ed his course of study at the public school. In 1929, he passed his Entrance at the age of twelve, winning the Nelson Shield for receiving the highest honours at the Entrance examinations. In the autumn of the same year, he entered the Princeton Continuation School, and during the following four years, he climbed the rocky path of knowledge very successfully. ' Two years later he was awarded the Lloyd Hughes Memorial Scholar- ship for obtaining the highest percentage in second form. In 1933, Wilfred was secretary of the Literary Society, and in June of that year, he graduated, receiving the Teacher's Special Prize in French Composition. ' Last year, he attended Paris High School until the middle of June. The family again moved, this time to Hagersville, where Wilfred tried his final examinations, meeting with great success. This year, we all wish Wilfred the best of luck as he continues his stu- dies at Hagersville High School. Z- H. S. CHARLES WALTER SCOTT ' Walter was born on the seventh day of May, 1915, on the con- cession of Blenheim in the County of Oxford, one mile from the village of Richwood, Ontario. At the age of seven, he branched out from the parent- al home, far enough to begin his public school education in the local school. Passing his entrance in 1928 with Honours, he took one greater step still, and continued his career at the Continuation School in Princeton. Here he spent four successful years completing his Middle School. He then came to Paris, where he spent two more years, during which he energetically took part in every branch of athletic and scholastic activity. and very ably fitted hiiirsself for a future career, proof of which is his excellent examination re- su s. Walter is at present in Hamilton taking a course at the Normal School, from which we undoubtedly believe he will come out as able a teacher as he was a student. 13 J. A. T. 'PW K 'v qs 5 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK DONALD ISAAC STEWART Donald Stewart, son of Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Stewart, was born in Paris on December 19, 1914, an event which marked the beginning of a very promising childhood. After receiving his elementary education at Paris Public School, Donald entered Paris High School where the many parts he played in its various activities are too numerous to mention. On the staff of The Quill , Don held practically every office at one time or another, in- cluding the position of editor-in-chief. As a columnist, he showed outstand- ing ability, and his weekly commentary on P. H. S. in the Paris Star during the term 1933-34 was considered one of the highlights of that worthy news- paper. During Don's later years at High School, his contributions through the offices of secretary and president of the Literary Society were of great value to that part of the school's life. His executive ability was probably exemplified at its peak when he acted as assistant-coach of the P. H. S. rugby team during the seasons 1932 and 33. Perhaps Don's greatest achieve- ments dwell within the realms of music. He played in every school orches- tra during his High School career and also in the famous Paris Band. Incid- entally, he is now a member of one of the district's most popular dance or- chestras. When Don graduated with Senior Matriculation in nine papers, Paris High School lost one of its most valuable students, for his pleasant manner, wit and humour, and kindly disposition will be missed by both students and. staff. However, our loss is the gain of Brantford Business College where Don is now in attendance. i- R. R. T. . HENRY SMITH Henry has led a varied and active life. He was born in Lethbridge, AI- berta, on the seventh of July, 1915. Henry began his school career at Leth- bridge and carries many happy recollections of his life there. In 1925 his parents moved to Ontario and settled near Etonia. Henry continued his edu- cation at Sunnyside Public School, and in 1929 passed his Entrance. Since ambition was already budding in his breast, he once again turned westward. Princeton Continuation School was the scene of his next four years' action. He had all the requisites of a good pupil. An agile and inquiring mind, to- gether with a dispositon which made learning a pleasure, soon marked him as an exceptional student. He graduated from Princeton in 1933, leaving' an admirable record and a host of friends. The next year he entered our halls as a member of Fifth Form and continued to display his exceptional ability as a student. His year was very creditable, receiving passes in nine subjects. He is now attending the Normal School at Hamilton and we wish him the best of luck in the future. All that maid could wish or man admire. -- R. C. KATHLEEN LILLIAN SMITH Kathleen made her first appearance into Paris on the critical date of April 21, 1916. However, at the ripe age of six months, deciding that she'd seen enough of Paris for awhile, she left for England. She remained here until the end of the Great War. Returning to Paris to begin her school life, she attended Paris Central School and entered Paris High School in 1929. During her stay at Paris High School, Kathleen took part in sports and literary activities. She was also an active executive of the Quill staff. On obtaining her Junior Matriculation, she secured a position in the of- fice of the Penman Company. Truly we may say: Help for any time, Fidelity at all times Steadiness and readiness, Through all her senior year. Perfect Kathy, golden-headed Kathy, We're sorry that your graduation's here. 14 V.

YEAR BooK RUSSEL REID TAYLOR Gananoque, Ontario, will always be famous because of the fact that it was in that town, on September 9th, 1917, that Russel R. Taylor was born. For two years this bouncing baby boy basked in the warmth of his infant innocence, annoying everyone in general, and then, taking his parents with him, he moved to Chatham. Here he received the greater part of his prim- ary education, attending the Public School and the Collegiate Institute. In January, 1932, Russ came to Paris and took up residence with his aunt and uncle, Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Crooks, Jane Street. This change mark- ed the beginning of two of the happiest ears f h' 1 y o is ife. ed the beginning of two cf the happiest years of his life. D . h. . . . urmg is soJourn with us, Russ proved himself to be outstanding in every sphere of school activity, especially in sports. He played on every organized school team, representing P. H. S. at the W. O. S. S. A. Track and Field Meet three times and at the Ontario Scholastic Meet twice. Special mention should be made of his ability as a basketball player, rugby star and high jumper. In connection with the Literary Society, Russ very capably filled several prominent offices, and his work on our school paper, the Quill, was always of exceptional merit. In the summer months, Russ is engaged as a director in one of the larg- est boys camps in the Dominion, which fact alone bespeaks his ability and popularity. This year Russ graduated with Senior Matriculation and ob- tained a very high standing. He is now taking a four-year course in Com- merce and Finance at the University cf Toronto from which he will gradu- ate as a Bachelor of Commerce. Suffice it to say-We'll never forget him' and we all wish him every success in the years to come. ' - D. I. S.

For five years Roger led a gay, free life about the home. Then to have a little peace and quietness at home, Roger was sent off to school at Tyrrell. For seven long years he struggled with his studies, and finally passed his Entrance in 1928. For four years the pupils of Simcoe High School were obliged to have him in their midst, and it was probably with a great sigh of relief that they saw a moving van pull out for Princeton carrying the worldly goods of the Veits. After two years of hard toil at Paris, he graduated in 1934 Roger has since then, become a man of the world, and he is playing the- part of the labouring man. D. K.

The first five years of her life were spent in harmless mischief with the other children of the neighbourhood. At the age of six, Phyllis began her worldly career at South Ward School. After seven successful years in Public School, she reached the age of greater reason, and passed her Entrance in 1929. Phyllis entered High School, and spent two very exciting and eventful years in Forms IB and IIA. At this time she decided to change to a Com- mercial course.

Q Principal Butcher welcomed the graduates and guests and expressed his sincere appreciation of the continued support given him by the citizens of Paris. In his brief resume of the school activities he drew attention to the recent Inter-school Field Meet held at Burford. Three new handsome silver cups were on display-the Senior Boys' cup, presented by Tip Top Tailors and won this year by Parisg the Harold Trophy for Junior Boys, won by Parisg and the Robinson Cup for Girls' Events which was later present- ed to Mr. A. E. Judge, Principal of Burford High School, to become the temporary possession of our neighbours. Mr. Butcher thanked Mr. John Harold and Mr. C. B. Robinson for their continued interest in our school. He also congratulated the Burford girl athletes, but assured them that P. H. S. girls intended to bring the cup back to Paris in 1935. Mr. Butcher remarked that of our twenty-eight graduates many have gone on to further study in the Normals and Universities of our province. He extended congratulations to Lorne Brooks our outstanding graduate who won a Scholarship at the University of Western Ontario, and who also qua- lified for two other scholarships. This year for the first time diplomas were to be awarded two of the commercial graduates, Irene Ball and Phyllis Brown whose work has been highly successful. It was with extreme pleasure that Mr. Butcher announced the donation of four new Honour Matriculation Scholarships of twenty-five dollars each -the Helen Dickson Smith Scholarship in English, the Dr. W. N. Bell Mem- orial in Latin, presented by his son Dr. Geoffrey Bell, the George E. Tay- lor Scholarship in French, and the Charles H. Baird Scholarship in Mathe- matics. Medals were presented by Mr. George Telfer, chairman of the Board of Education, to the Athletic champions of the 12104 Field Meet- to Frances Kitchen Uuniorj Betty Kelley, Doris Shannon and Barbara Telfer Ctied for Intermediatej Frances McCrow CSeniorD and to John Kennedy fJuniorJ Keith Miller flntermediatel Donald Hickson CSeniorJ. He then presented the prizes donated by the teaching staff to Laura Wilkin and Ruth Gilbert for their success in the Poetry Contest, to Ruth Durham and Glenn Taylor for the best Senior Short Stories, and to Audrey Brooks and Evelyn Bee as winners in the Junior Short Story contest. Mr. Charles McCausland, chairman of the Management Committee then presented the graduation diplomas. Murray McGill, now an undergraduate of the Ontario Agricultural College, delivered the Valedictorian's address in a very creditable and con- vincing manner. As he looked back over the five or six years spent by most of the graduating class in Paris High School, he recalled his own early im- pressions as though he were passing through a foggy haze while the goal seemed so remote. Now they have all reached that point and are looking out towards a still dim distant future. With great sincerity Murray pointed out to the present students the benefits and privileges they enjoyed here. He and his fellow-classmates acknowledged their debt to the Board of Edu- - 17 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 'cation and to the citizens who supported the school through very trying times. He expressed their Qll3l,llLllCl6 to the staff whose competent instruc- tion and personal contact meant so much to them. With deep feeling he spoke of the friendships made at Paris High School, friendships that would never wither nor be forgotten, but that would be more deeply cherished, fever-enduring as the years passed. The three choruses given by the First Form Singing Class were greatly appreciated and much credit is due their director Mr. G. A. Smale, A.T.C.M. From the Village Steeple Pealing with its orchestral accompaniment was very effectively rendered, The orchestra, also under Mr. Smale's direction, is to be complimented on its fine selections. We are pleased indeed that these pupils gave of their time and talent to make our Cornroenccment a Success. The closing number of the program, and to many the highlight, of the evening was the presentation of t'My Lord in Livery by members of the Fifth Form, ably assisted by Alfred Gibbons of First Form in the role of a little page. The other characters were: Sybil Amberley-Elleene Munroeg Laura-Helen Wilking Rose-Elsie Blackg Spiggott, the butler-Edgar Nashg Hopkins, the footman-Emory K.nillg Lord Thirlmere-Alex Barron. The clever interpretation of each role gave to the play its full Mid-Victorian flavour. The old English home the quaint pretty costumes of the girls, the gorgeous livery of page and footman carried us back in spirit to the year 1850. The spirited acting and graceful dancing of the minuet won the hear- ty applause of the audience. Miss Ramsay is to be highly praised for her success in directing this play which was one of the best ever presented at Paris High School. On Monday evening the Post Commencement Concert delighted an equally large audience when the play and musical numbers were repeated. Hazel Folsetter favoured us with a very witty reading Towser must be chained to-night. Norman Seip rendered two violin solos in his usual ac- ceptable manner. Helen H.

During the-. past few years this expression has often been on our lips, and we were proud of the fact that we were members of this splendid school. This an- nual event, however, is a landmark, a sign-post on one of the corners of the hghway of life, and tonight the graduating class turns that corner. We can hardly say we experience a feeling of regret because this was the goal we aimed at when we entered these halls for the first time, yet the very- wcrd 'last' strikes a sensitive chord in our hearts, and so it is that we har- bour this rather indefinable feeling as we gather here to-night to say good- bye. As we look back over the past, we recall the first day we made our Way to the school on the hill, with much uneasiness and trembling. A new class was embarking upon the quest of higher education, a very new class in the eyes of the second year students. That first year, the first part at least, was something of a mystery. We lived in a foggy haze, seemingly not able to- gain the true perspective of things. We gazed in silent wonder at the migh- ty fifth-formersg and the possibility of acquiring that high and majestic po- sition seemed very remote. As the years went by, the leaves seemed to fall off the calendar with increasing rapidity, until at last the months slipped by like telephone poles when viewed from a fast-moving train. Finally, the thought that we would have to leave our High School suddenly confronted. us. It was then we realized, as we had never realized before, how near and.. dear to us the school and all its associations had grown. As we stood on the steps before we left last summer, there came float- ing back to us many treasured memories of our sojourn here. We vividly remember the Field Days, the Burford-Paris-Simcoe Field Meets,the literary meetings, our at-homes and school dances, the basketball games, and the de- termined searches for the baker at recess. Do you wonder that we stopped and thought for a moment before we went on? And so it is with every class, in fact with us all in every walk of life. We are wont to take so much for granted that it is not until these treasures have flown that we realize what we have lost. We are so apt to gain the at- titude that The world owes me a living, that we miss much of the enjoy- ment of living. It is to try to overcome this attitude in some measure at least, that we wish to mention to you students, who will inhabit these halls, some of the opportunities and privileges that you enjoy. In so doing we will at the same time express our appreciation of these benefits, which, we frankly admit, we accepted as a matter of course while here, but since we: no longer have them, we recognize their true value. Q You owe a great deal to the Board of Education which you have, and. to the citizens of Paris who support it. They are always interested in your welfare, and their continued interest during the rather trying situation of the last few years is to be commended. Perhaps in no way is their interest more strikingly shown than in their selection of the teaching staff. Here you enjoy a great deal of personal direction both in and out of class periods: this is one of the major differences between High School and College. Then, too, you have your various societies. The Literary Society is an organization to which you should all give your heartiest support. I have no doubt that many of you feel, at times, that work in this society is ratlier irksome and is to be avoidedg however, I assure you that the excellent advantage, which its training affords in after life, makes it well worth your 'whilez In addition, there are your athletic functions backed by your Athletic Societies. In this sphere, however, your success this year, and in previous years, shows that Y ou are striving to maintain the reputation that athletes of this school have 19 . I 1 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK maintained in the past-and are still maintaining in the present. There is one other circumstance which we perhaps fail to recognize more than any other, ln a smaller school such as this, more freedom and privilege is granted than. is permissable in the large collegiates, where necessity enforces restrictions. Here you become more or less one big family, each helping the other. Let me take this opportunity, now to say thanks, on behalf of the graduating class of year '34, to all those who are responsible in any way for these con- ditions which we have enjoyed so much. Paris High School will occupy a permanent place, a permanent position in the hearts of us all for reasons other than the academic knowledge gain-A ed here. For many of us it is the only connecting link of our lives. Most of us never saw one another before the opening day of school one September morning, some five or six years ago. Since then we have worked together, in study and in play, up the ladder of high school life. During this period we have come to know each other very intimately, and many close and en- during friendships have been formed. Friends, Paris High School may van- ish, the latin verbs and the binomial theorem learned here, may be entirely' forgotten, but the friendships formed here will live on. Already we are widely separated, scarcely any two of us following the same path, but there is present, always, this connective influence. As the years roll by, we will become more widely separated, but unlike so many things of life which wither with the years, these bonds of friendship will become more cherished and more enduring. , Thus it is we leave. It is true that this is our farewell, yet We cherish the thought, tonight, that we have a school and friends to which We hope to return many times in the future. But now we have reached the summit. Be- d r hi h school career is written in indelible ink across our page of hin us ou g , life. Before us our roadway stretches away into the future, but before we ' h h 1 w love so well. start on that Journey, we take one more look at t e sc Ngorra le A. MCGHL ,...i..i-l. Our Autumn Leaves Ne'er before such a wealth of leaves, Such reddish-crimson, golds and browns, Have I beheld in years gone by, Or ever shall before I dieg Leaves of every kind and hue, All rustling in the .Autumn dew- The leaves, in spring, so fresh and green, To this old world new joy did bring, Made spirits light, and sad hearts gay, A source of pleasure every d'ayg But ch! the leaves of the dying year, As for me, are the ones most dear. The leaves of our blest Maple tree, Red-stained, yellow, gold and bronze, A hood of colour bright do throw O'er the hills and valleys low. No, the leaves of the Waning year Are not the cause to shed a tear. Leafy boughs of this Northern clime, , Ere their greens turn to flaming reds, Must stand the trials of wind and rain, The storms and gales, but not in vain, For no life ever showed a gain That had no sorrow, sadness, pain. The leaves of Autumn are the best Of all the whole year throu' For they, when death is nigh, display The page of life in bright array. Ah yes! the leaves of the dying year As for me, are the ones most dear. 0 Ruth Gilbert 2 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Prophecy of 1934 Graduating Class Let us turn the pages of time and journey twenty-five Years into the future. As we stroll down a side street of a very peaceful town, we come to a small white bungalow covered with green vines and rambling roses. We see on the verandah an elderly man and his wife, peacefully rocking in their chairs, enjoying the beauties of the summer sunset. The old gen- tleman is reading his evening paper and as he puts it down, to speak to his wife, we see that it is Mr. Butcher who, after having taught school for' forty years, has retired from that occupation in which he was so success- ful. Well, mother, he remarks to his wife, I see by the paper that a cure for cancer has been discovered. It also says that the man who discovered this miraculous cure is Dr. Adam Miller. Why, By Jove, that's the little red-headed boy I used to teach at Paris High School. 'Well, well , returned Mrs. Butcher, Is it not strange that every sin- gle member of that very class has been remarkably successful in later life? And you aways used to say that it was the most backward class you ever taught. Yes, it is strange, said the elderly Mr. Butcher. Now you take Robert Cowan, the little Princeton lad. Bob after practising law, drifted into po- litics and has recently held portfolios in four different federal cabinets. Murray McGill is another to make a name for himself. You will recall that, while he was in his last year at high school, he edited the Paris High School column in the Paris Star under the name of Sextus. 'l'After his great success there, he took up newspaper writing as an occupation and now he is associate editor of the New York Times . You will also remember Jesse Jasper who is now writing short stories for Cosmopolitan and oth- er prominent magazines. Two of that class are now in the ministry, Alex. McLaren and Harold Kennedy. Alex. has a large church in Windsor, while Harold as you know is Moderator of the United Church of Canada. Harold Higgins is at present the Bishop of Hamilton. Three of the boys are farming and all are' doing extremely well. Llewellyn Depew and Will Guthrie both have large farms near Paris and Joe Meggs is head of a government experimental farm in Saskatchewan. Margaret Buck is now with the Sun Life Insurance Co., and Verta Kener- son is Dean of Women at Western University-neither Margaret nor Verta ever maivied. Three of the boys of the class pursued athletic careers. Wil- fred Ryerse took up professional wrestling, and while at the peak of his career was known as Strang1er Ryerse. After making considerable money during his career as a wrestler, he retired and bought a large interest in some company that makes cellophane. Harland Kempthorne in his young- days starred with the Toronto Maple Leaf Hockey Team, while Walter Scott, after playing baseball for the New York Giants for many years, is now manager of that same team. Donald Stewart and Verne Martin both pursued theatrical careers. Don, after several years of comedy work on 21 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK the stage, went to Hollywood where he has done very well in short com- edy pictures. Verne has been producing musical comedies on Broadway for several years. 'Dick Murray took up aviation as his life Work and I must' say he has been extremely successful. It was he who perfected the new rocket planes for the New York to London Trans-Atlantic Airway. Delmar' Kipp and Roger Veit have been partners in a milk industry for twenty years, and now operate the largest dairying industry in Canada. Four of the class pursued the teaching profession. Lorne Brooks, after a brilliant university career, began lecturing at Toronto University and is now professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University. Jack Taylor is now director of athletics at Toronto University and it was he who coached the Canadian team at the recent Olympic games at Paris, France. Helen Pruss and Lenore Miller taught school for several years near Paris, but later both married and settled down. I understand also that Jeanette Mur- ray and Madge Rounds were married soon after leaving school. Jeanette's husband is now Chief of Police in the' city of Hamilton. Constance McK.ie' became a nurse and is now superintendent of the Montreal General Hose pital. Murray Hamilton and Henry Smith both took up engineering as occupations. Henry now belongs to the firm of Golberg, Golberg, Golberg, Golberg, Golberg, Golberg and Smith, consulting' engineers hz. Winnipegg while Murray is chief engineer of the Ontario Hydro-Electric Power Com- panyp Yes, mother, concluded Mr. Butcher as he picked up his paper, That was truly a wonderful class and it gives me aa great deal off' pride to think of how well each member has done. We return back twenty-five years, through the pages of time and see this class whose destiny I have just set forth, seated in their desks in the lap boratory of Paris High School. I must say that they do not give one an impression of brilliancy- quite on the contrary but what does this matter now that we have found out that through the course of time, this class will blossom forth, displaying its hidden genius and taking prominent plai- ees in the outside world. Russel Taylor, Prophet. C' The prophet is wrong. This student was not the editor of the col- umn in The Paris Stany ' i The class had been told to write a composition on a bitter ending. The teacher gave as an example of such this concluding' paragraph, And the ship sank. Such a bitter end for the voyage! The next day Don Simmons handed in this as his composition, t'Our dog' chased our cat and bit 'er end. After all these years, remarked Craig Sowden, who had come back after twenty years to' lecture in Paris, I miss' many of the old faces with which I used to shake hands. This is a skyscraper, announced the guide. The old lady sighed and said, Oh my! How I'd love to see work! PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK The Years Between During the years 1932 and 1933, no book was issued to tell the public of the activities at Paris High School. A detailed account of all these ac- tivities cannot be given, but, in order to have a permanent record of the intervening years, it has been thought advisable to include in this Year Book at least the highlights of this period. Let us consider first the happenings of 1932. In the Literary Society for the Spring Term, Sylvanus Apps was president and Dr. Jeffery was Honorary President. The Editor-in-chief of The Quill was Gordon Miller. Vera Cruickshank was president of the Girls' Athletic Association and Syl- vanus Apps was president of the Boys' Athletic Association. The girls entered a team in W.O.S.S.A. Basketball for the first time, but were defeated in the first round by Brantford C. I. The Junior Boys' Bas- ketball Team won three out of four games with Brantford. They were beaten by one point on the round with Kitchener C. I. for group honours. The Junior and Senior Oratorical Contests were held on January 29, when Edgar Nash won the Junior Boys', Elleene Munroe the Junior Girls' and Vera Cruickshank the Senior Girls' Contest. On February 8, Vera went to Kitchener where she came second in the W.O.S.S.A. District Orat- orical Contest. The Junior District Contests were held in Paris on February 12, Edgar Nash was first and Elleene Munroe was second, in their respec- tive contests. Inclement weather in the fall of 1931 made it necessary to postpone the Burford-Paris-Simcoe Athletic Meet until the following spring. It was held on May 11 at Simcoe. There were no entries in the girls' events from Burford and Simcoe, so our girls did not compete. The boys of our school won both the Junior and Senior cups. At the W.O.S.S.A. Field Meet held in London on May 21, 1932, Sylvanus Apps made a new record of 11 ft., 63f4 inches in the Senior Pole Vault. He was first also in the Senior Running Broad Jump. In the Intermediate class, Homer Wilson was first in the Half-mile and Verne Martin was third in the Running Broad Jump, while Russel Taylor was first in the Junior High Jump. At the Provincial Field Meet held in Toronto, Sylvanus Apps was again first in the Senior Pole Vault, Homer Wilson was second in the Intermed- iate Half-mile and Russel Taylor was third in the Junior High Jump. For the fall term, Mr. Chas. McCausland was Honorary President and Murray McGill was president of the Literary Society, Lawrence Cassady was Editor-in-chief of The Quill, Margaret McArthur was president of the Girls' Athletic Association, and Homer Wilson was president of the Boys' Athletic Association. The annual Field Day was held on October 5, when the Athletic Cham- pions were: Senior Girls-Olive Robb, Intermediate Girls-Hazel Peberdy, Junior Girls-Verna Gedney, Senior Boys-J ack Taylor, Intermediate Boys -Russel Taylor and Junior Boys-William Rutherford. The Burford-Paris-Simcoe Athletic Meet was held in October at Bur- ford. The Paris boys won both the Junior and Senior Cups, but the Bur- ford girls won the Girls' Cup. On November 10, the Annual Remembrance Day Service was held. Third Form had charge of the service. Mr. Cocks was the guest speaker and gave an inspiring address on The Great War. At the Commencement Exercises on November 25-, Sylvanus Apps was Valedictorian and diplomas were presented to twenty graduates. A one- act play Brothers-in-Arms , under the direction of Miss Ramsay was giv- en by the senior students. The usual post-commencement concert was held 23 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK on the following Monday evening. The commencement program was re- peated with the addition of a few musical numbers. For the Spring Term of 1933, Mr. Charles McCausland was again ap- pointed Honorary President, with Murray McGil1 president of the Literary Society. The duty of Editor-in-chief of The Quill fell upon Donald Stewart. The executives of the Athetic Associations are elected in the fall, and hold office for a year, so the presidents were the same as in the fall of 1932. Q February 2 was Junior Night. Joyce Priest was winner of the Junior Girls' Oratorlcal Contest while Allan Veall won the Junior Boys' Contest. 'These two speakers ably represented P. H. S. at the W.O.S.S.A. District Contest held here on February 15. Joyce Priest succeeded in coming se- cond in the Girls' Contest. The annual School At Home was held on February 17. There were Labout two hundred present and everyone agreed it was the usual success. We were honoured on May 3, by a visit from the famous Hart House String Quartet. Members of the Board of Education with their wives and a few of the local musicans were present and all enjoyed the pleasant hour of music supplied by the Quartet. On May 4, at seven a.m., when Mr. Tate opened the school door he was greeted by a dense cloud of smoke. Rushing to the gymnasium, he found that fire of unknown origin had started around the platform there. He succeeded in extinguishing it unaided. The gym. was a total wreck and the smoke had blackened the walls, floors and ceilings throughout the entire school. The pupils had a vacation for two days while a large band of men cleaned up and made the school habitable again. At the W.O.S.S.A. Field Meet in London on May 24th, Keith Ratcliffe was second in the Juvenile Running Broad Jump and also second in the Juvenile High Jump. Mrs. Ferguson Spooner of Chengtu, China, a former teacher here, don- ated a pair of Chinese panels as a prize for a poetry contest These were b won y Jean Reid on her poem May Day. This poem appears elsewhere in this book. In W.O.S.S.A. Basketball, the Junior Boys' Team won three out of four games of a double schedule with Ingersoll C. I., but were beaten by Aylmer H. S. The Girls' Team and the Senior Boys' Team were eliminated by Brantford C. I. The Honorary President of the Literary Society for the Fall Term was Mr. George L. Telfer and Donald Stewart was president. Murray McGill was editor-in-chief of The Quill. Margaret Buck and Ve president of the Girls' Athletic and Boys' Athletic Associations respectively. Fine weather on September 27 played an important part in making the P. H. S. Field Day a success. The champions were: Junior Girls-Betty Kelley, Intermediate Girls-Laura Wilkin, Senior Girls-Hazel Peberdy, Junior Boys-Douglas Verity, Intermediate Boys-Donald Hickson, Senior Boys-Verne Martin. On October 12 the Burford-Paris Simcoe Field Meet was held in Paris, when all three cups were won by our school. Not bad, eh? The Paris Post of the Canadian Legion donated medals to the pupils writing the best essays on Canada's Part in the Great War. The winner in the first forms was Ethel McDonald, while Verna Pottruff's essay was the best from second form and commercial. Helen Wilkin wrote a fine es- say that she not only wonthe medal for Middle and Upper School, but the Legion presented her with a special prize at Commencement. 1 . At the Remembrance Day Service on November 9, Mr. Edgar Harold visited us. He brought to us some of his own impressions of the horrors of war. 24 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Laura Wilkin was first in the Poetry Contest with her poem Shylock. Her prize was a pair of silk panels donated by Mrs. Spooner of Chengtu, China. The Commencement Exercises were held on Friday, November 24. Evelyn Woods as Valedictorian expressed the regrets of the twenty-one gra- duates at leaving Paris High School. The program, with the addition of dances by the girls and an exhibition of tumbling by the boys was repeat- ed the following Monday night. Mr. W. Kenneth Gibb, B. Comm., was a member of the Staff of Paris High School from September 1932 to June 1934, when he accepted a posi- tion at Burlington High School at an advanced salary. He taught the com- mercial subjects, and was always willing to aid the pupils in their extra- curricular activities. Phyllis Telfer. Dedication of the Flag and Flagstaff On May 23, 1934, in a simple but inspiring ceremony, A Canadian Jack, the symbol of our loyalty, honour and freedom to the whole British Empire, was presented to the Paris High School by a former graduate and well- known resident, Miss Helen Dickson Smith. Promptly at three o'clock, the students marched to the front of the school where a number of guests, the members of the Board of Education, and those interested in our school, had assembled. Under the direction of Mr. George Smale, we sang the Maple Leaf. Miss Smith then presented the flag and flag-staff to the school, declar- ing, If one building more than another should fly the flag of the country, it is the building in which the youth of the country is trained for good citi- zenshipf' In a few, well-chosen words, Mr. George L. Telfer, on behalf of the Board of Education accepted this generous gift. Our Principal, Mr. C. Ward Butcher, welcomed the guests to this, pre- sentation and dedication of the Canadian Jack . He expressed his gratitude to Miss Smith for her generosity, and his pleasure at the transfer of her af- fections from the old High School to the new. The Rev. W. F. McConnell, a member of the Board of Education, offer- ed the dedicatory prayer, thanking the King of Kings for the building up of this great Empire of which we form a part for the unity of the Empire, and for the freedom and liberty of all men, gained by the noble and her- oic sacrifices of our fellow-citizens. He called upon Ahnighty God to help us remember our responsibility as members of that Empire and to each in- dividually aid in elevating Canadian character. Verne Martin, president of the School Literary Society hoisted our flag, and as the Canadian Jack reached the top and unfurled in the breeze, all saluted and sang the National Anthem, God Save the King. Today it flutters in the breeze, a flag belonging to the Paris High School, a well-chosen and greatly appreciated gift presented by one deeply interested in school life, a reminder of our duty to king and country.

The meetings are held during school hours and every student is expected to attend. The efficient Executive controls the society, and conducts the meetings. Each form in school is responsible for the program for one meeting, and remarkable talent, both musical and dramatic is shown by the pupils. Our teachers are interested guests only. At the beginning of the school term a committee is chosen which nom- inates students for the various offices. The pupils vote and the elected executives hcld office for half a year. An eficient and enterprising executive held office for the Spring Term of 1934 under the leadership of the President, Verne Martin. During their term of office, two successful social evenings were held-the At Home and the Senior Dance. At the beginning of the Fall Term, the heads of our Society decided to hold a dance after Field Day on Oct. 3. This Dance was a great success due ' ' ' h- e. Our meetings this fall have been to the untiring efforts of those in c arg more humorous and more enjoyable than ever beforeg may they continue to be so. And so our Literary Society, all praise to you and may you continue your successful efforts. 26 Isabel K. Hunt. PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK UWB r-N W' OR Quoin Fall Term Staff, 1934.

Since the primary edition of the 'Quill , in 1926, it has been the custom for the first editorial of the year to state the date and day when school op- ened and pupils joyously returned to resume studies so lightheartedly for- gotten two months before. In order to uphold this tradition, it is hereby proclaimed that school opened Tuesday, September the fourth, with an en- rollment of two hundred and eighty-seven pupils and nine teachers. That day is now a long-forgotten memory of the distant past. Future events are of more importance in school life, for instance the examinations that are looking ahead and the Christmas holidays which are not too far away. A young woman goes upstairs at 7.45 to dress for the evening. She is 19 years old and weighs 102 lbs. State the wait of the young man down- stairs. 27 .PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK The. following is an idea which will do away altogether with the nuis- ance of irrigating farms. The brainwave is to plant a row of onions next to a row of potatoes, The onions will make the potatoes' eyes water and they will irrigate themselves. Another bright idea is to obtain light from dahlia bulbs for use in the north country where the bear never sees his shadow. The dahlia. bulbs must be got very young and brought up to the idea that they must give. light- They are going to include Ivan Watt in the company to supply the necessary number of watts in. their bulbs. There has been for thousands of years in fact since. 586, B.C., a quest for the Lost Ten Jewish Tribes. Rumour has it that these have been found wandering about the lower hall of Paris High School and they still seem bound to the trails and customs of their forefathers who studied Caesar's 'Bellum Gallicumn so diligently and untiringly-or did they? A student in English Composition thinks that footsteps in dry leaves sound like Joe E. Brown eating cornflakes without milk. Fashions-Last Qui1l?', a fourth form boy was mentioned, as a model dresser for the boys but I am afraid his position is being usurped by our 'Fifth Form Flash who makes quite a picture with his fiery red hair and. sapphire blue sweater. Here is a story about a house and three people. There lived in. this house a pretty young girl, a bright young widow and an old maid. They all had a date that night so they agreed at breakfast the next day to say morning as many times as they had ben kissed the night before. The next day at breakfast the pretty young girl. came in and said Good morning, it's a fine morning isn't it? The bright young widow came in and greeted them, Good morning, good morning, it?s a fine morning, this morning, If it's as nice a morning to-morrow morning as it is this morni.ng, it will be a nice morning to-morrow morning. Next the old maid came in and said How- dy Y! Athletics. -Soon the girls will be taking up basketball again. Fifth wants to have a team which will easily beat the rest of the school. High and mighty effect again, you know. Basketball is forging to the front in boys' athletics at present. Paris is entering two teams in the W.O.S.S.A.-Junior and Senior teams.

Now the waiting time is over All the sullen storms are gone, And a breath of wondrous sweetness Speeds each rose-enchanted dawn. In the vestry of the woodland Tree-top choruses begin, And each bird voice thrills with worship As it chants the morning hymn. Down a lane that leads to nowhere Violets trail their skirts of blue, Winsome messengers of Maytime Smiling through a mist of dew. There's a note of tumbling laughter Running through the brooklets song, For the ecstasy of rythm As it rushes madly on. Long brown roads are twisting, turning, Haunted by the steps of men Gay or weary, ever plodding Upathe hills and down again. Pussy-willow buds are bursting Velvet soft on every stem, Luring us with magic language Through the swamps to gather them. Soft the south wind weaves a story Of the forest pools so deep, With their prisoned shafts of glory Where the sunlight lies asleep. And the pipes of Pan are ringing High and clear at every noon, Calling vagrant hearts to follow That elusive golden tune. Mutely primrose dusk approaches Lulls the pulsing world to rest, And a lamp of burning beauty Lights the chancel of the west. Fragrant night enfolds her kingdom Silver washed beneath the moon, 29 A J PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK And a wistful clinging perfume Drifts from apple trees in bloom.

Shylock 'They had called him a cursed dog of the Jews They had spat on him day by day, Till unchecked hatred ruled his breast, And his thoughts-how bitter were they! Now he stood alone in the crowded court, Alone 'mid that mighty throng, And raised his voice in passionate plea Of justice for his wrong. His daughter, his loved one Jessica, Fled with a Christian man And the two sealed bags of ducats Wrung from the Christian band! There sat the proud Antonio, Ria1to's merchant prince, But gold he had loaned out gratis, And Shylock had hated since. Antonio! Antonio! Was that the only name Which Venice 'marts could boast? Why should that merchant have the wealth That Shylock longed for most? The wealth! Ah, that he had no more, All power he was beyond, And Shylock claimed the pound of flesh That should foreclose the bond. But now there stood before the court That learned man of laws, And begged of him to mercy show And bade him, Shylock, pause. Show mercy to that Christian man Who mocked his loss and gain, Who scorned him and who spat on him, And then forgot his pain? Never! The word rang through the court And echoed back again, Not for all the wealth in Venice Nor for all her powerful men. In the dead silence of the court No word of his was missed, And as the anger surged his breast Impassioned words he hissed. 30 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK You say I am a cringing Jew Ranked less than any cur. You think that I should suffer wrong, And not a hand bestir. Antonio hath sworn his oath, I claim that he must meet The debt he owes. The pound of flesh Will be revenge most sweet. And I will have what I most crave! Deny what I beseech And all the freedom of your state I will at once impeach. Up rose the learned judge and said, Take thou of flesh tny pound. But if, in weighing it, the scale Is one jot heavy found, Or if one drop of his red blood Shows in the balance there, Thy wealth and life are forfeited Thy goods to him repair. Your plot against Antonio's life Doth give him legal right To half thy goods. Down on thy knees Beg mercy for thy plight! 7 The merchant spoke. These terms I state, I will forego my share If you accept the Christian faith, And this condition bear. He paused, and then went on to say, And half thy goods bestow Upon thy daughter Jessica. And then-they let him go. The anger in his soul was spent. To leave the court he turned. He did not know his bitter words In many a heart still burned. He was an old and broken man, And he was lonely, too, And they had turned him out in hate For he was just-a Jew. H Laura Wilkin Note:-Mrs. Spooner fnee Miss Ferguson, former teacher of Enghsh on our staffj of Chengtu, China, gave special prizes for two poetry con tests in 1933. May Day won the first place in the spring contest, Shylock in the fall contest. 31 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK To Adventure Adventure, oh adventure , is the voice that comes to me, A wild and swift irnperious call beside the wave-tossed seag And all my heart is with the breeze, and all my spirit cries To know the joys of roaming free with winds and seas and skies. Majestic days of sailing ships they say are now gone past, But in my dreams a pure white sail goes scudding by so fast, And I can see the green palmed shores beyond the bounding main, The vivid tropic colours in the seasons of the rain. Now into this my reverie break gulls in rhythmic flight, Winging up to higher realms where is nor day nor night, And oh that I might fly with them 'way out across the bay 'To Samarkand in Asia or the land of wild Cathay!

Wilkin, Poetess, Spring Term, Restless First Prize, Poetry Contest, 1934 'There's a whisper in all the swaying trees, There's enchanting rhythm in every breeze, I can never resist the call to me When woodland sprites sing wild and free. The bubbling stream casts bewitching spells, Dimpling and gurgling through moss-brown dellsg I dream of bright, paths in the sun - kissed sprinf Where the elves and the fays are beckoning. On the starlit nights when the witches fly .And the moon is dappled by clouds on high, The imps of unrest within me stir: I'm off for the glade where the bat's wings whii l'm akin, in spirit, to velvet beesg l'm a part, I feel, of the tossing trees: I'rn a yassal to nature's sovereign power From the flush of dawn to the twilight hour. And sometimes when winds from far over the moor Are piping to me with enticing allure, I'l1 answer those wild elfin tunes from the heights, And fly with them ever on moon-drenched nights. Laura e' .Y A I P Wilkin. Twilight Second Prize, Poetry Contest, 1934 What a lovely gift thou art! oh twilight! ' Faint light as the day travels down the west, Thou sweet, warning messenger of the night, Who tells 'tis time weary limbs to rest. Thou. the mellow keeper of one, brief hour, With calm, silver light dost thou wrap us 'round. As a fair child asleep in grassy bowers, Dost thou breathe to the world peace, pure, and sound. The breeze retires to its nest in the trees, Of honey sweet, the bees have had their fill, The warbling birds have ceased their melodies, And all the whole, wide world is lying still. Up comes the moon, a face of pale, white light, For her nightly journey she doth prepare Up the steps of heaveng but 'tis not night, For in the west still flicker tints so rare. As the lovely moon sheds her silver light 0'er Nature's humble worksg as a Great Hand Studs the sky wth sparkling diamonds, bright, Twilight, soft as a dove, slips from the land. 32 Ruth Gilbert.

Paris High on the banks of the River Grand, Where hills like watchful guardians stand The fairest town in this fair land- Our Paris. When the soft winds of balmy Spring, To gnarled old trees fresh verdure bring Therein sweet songsters daily ring In Paris. Again when Summer waves her wand, O'er hill and dale, o'er stream and pond, Then fairy land indeed has dawned In Paris. But Autumn comes on stealthy feet A-slipping down each winding street, The glorious vision to complete In Paris. When Winter brings her mantle white And spreads it o'er each frosty height. The River glistens in the light Of Paris. So, Summer, Winter, Spring and Fall Each season has a luring call, And hearts are held in beauty's thrall In Paris. Mary R.

Alex. Wilson Basketball is gradually coming to the fore in P. H. S. Athletics. Mr- Smith is a very capable coach and takes a keen interest. in the Junior boys. Last year, Paris High School. entered a Junior and a Senior team in the W. 0. S. S. A. Both Paris teams were matched with Galt. and. Brantford. The Juniors first game was at Brantford and after a hectic struggle. ended in a 22-all tie. The J unicrs defeated Galt with home and home games quite handily. In the return game with Brantford at Paris, the Juniors were ncsed out by a 28-22 decision. By this defeat, Paris lost the chance to re- present the group in the play-downs. The. Seniors, on the other hand, won, the first game on the Brantford floor but lost to them in the return game in. Paris. The Seniors then lost to Galt in a keenly contested match by one basket. They redeemed themselves by defeating Galt on their own floor. Galt defeated Brantford by one basket in Brantford, thus avoiding the pos- sible three-cornered tie and eliminating Paris. After' both teams were put out of the running, several captains were chosen and teams picked from. the school. Excellent games resulted. This year, P. H. S. has entered a Jun- ior and a Senior team again. Practice is well under way and good teams are expected. P. H. S. was represented last year at the annual Track and Field Meet in London on May 19, by Russel Taylor and Lloyd Bradley. Russel Taylor was second in the Intermediate High Jump, clearing the bar at five-foot-six which is a mighty good jump. Lloyd Bradley was entered in the 100 yds., and although he did not reach the finals, gave a good account of himself. Volleyball was one of the main games in P. T. classes last year. Verne Martin and Speeder Higgins provided the thrills when their great teams 34 Intermediate Boys. PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK cla hed. Exciting games resulted from the keen rivalry of fourth and fifth. The thoughts of having 'a rugby team were abandoned until next year, -owing to the time taken up in training for the Field Days and also the lack of players at the practices. Games between classes took place with keen rivalry. There is much promising material for next year and it is to be hoped that P. H. S. shall again be famed for its rugby team. On October 3, the annual P. H. S. Field Day was held. The track was 1n good condition, thanks to the Board of Education. The day was ideal, Th com etition Was stiff with 'each with typical fall weather prevailing. e D event keenly contested.

It takes more than keeping one's nose to the grindstone of study to make up a High School career. Athletics must and do play a part. G11-is sports are somewhat different from what the bfrg,-'s enjoy, but we do have the privilege of baseball and basketball. Outdoors in the beautiful weather, or in the Gym, during the winter, we get the benefit of periods of physical exercise and rest from study. Besides these Physical Training periods, we have the Gym after four o'clock on certain daysg and it is then that the interform schedule is to be played c-ff. I can't tell you much about the Field Days, because they are being written up by other students, but I can say that they were successful, and that sportsmanship was displayed throughout. And now, no more of Girls' Athletics until the 1935 Year Book is pub- lished. 0 Laura M. Wilkin, President Junior Girls. 60 Yard Dash-rancis Kitchen, Annie Ferguson, Hazel Lowe.

PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Paris Winners at Burford-Paris-Simcoe cet The annual inter-school Field and T1'-ack Meet has once again taken.1tS accustomed place in the school life. Despite many unforeseen difficulties, the meet was a decided success. There was sfme doubt as to whether the meet would be held this year, owing to the fact that Simcoe could not pro- vide suitable accommodations. However, Burford offered the use of their grounds, and made splendid preparations on very shcrt notice. The weather man was very considerate, and saved a clear sunny day for Saturday, October 13. The events were keenly contested, and the points were well distributed. The track events, which are possibly the most interesting events from the spectators point of view, were especially good. They were held on the track at the Fair grounds and provided many tense moments for those on the side-lines. The programme was well planned and the events passed off swiftly. Almost before we realized it, the meet was over. However, a further treat was in store for us. The Burford students had obtained permission to have a dance after the customary refreshments had been served. The dance is a recent innovation at the inter-school meet, and it is to be hoped that it may become one of the traditions associated with the annual day of inter-school competition. A lunch, in which quantity vied with quality, was served in the school. After lunch, the floor was cleared for dancing and specially provided radios made their appearance. During an intermission, the ribbons were distribut- ed. Some of the cups have changed their resting places for the next year, but that is to be expected, and, if some of the cups have left our halls, it is not because we were disinterested, or that there was any lack of zeal in our efforts.

Remembrance Day Service The students of Paris High School assembled in the auditorium on November 9, to pay tribute to the silent graves in Flander's Fields. The Principal, Mr. Butcher, presided during the service. The service commenc- ed with the singing of O Canada , after which Mr. Butcher read the names of those High School students who gave their lives in the Great War. The student body then sang that well-known battle hymn O God our Help in Ages Past. Rev. 1Capt.3 H. F. Cocks M.C., was the guest speaker for the service. First of all he announced the winners of the Legion Essay Contest and commented on the excellence of the essays. Capt. Cocks then spoke on How Canada can Promote World Peace, dwelling on the possibilities of World Peace and pointing out the obstacles in the way. Capt. Cocks said, War is not glory nor is it refined. There will never be a war to end war, but one of the ways Canada can promote peace is to seek a clearer under- standing of peoples of other lands, and thus strive to avoid racial antagon- ismsf' After this stirring address, two minutes' silence was observed and the service closed with the National Anthem.

I first saw the sun rise on the Indian Reserve, but pray don't presume that I am an Indian although I do wear feathers. My feathers are French blue, I think it is called, with large white polka dots in very even rows. My cheeks are painted white to match these spots. On each side of my face is a blood-red sideburn-very appropriate ornaments. I am a most handsome bird known as Mr. Guinea. My friends are Indians even if I am not. I have always been used kindly by them and am not in the least afraid of their approaches. Since my owners recognized me as the most handsome of the flock, they selected myself and two beautiful wives to stay on their farm while the others were sold. My wives were always jealous of each other. I had to use great tact in the distribution of dainty morsels. The farm where we lived and adjacent farms were thoroughly searched for a suitable nesting place for each wife. We investigated every fence corner, bush, hedge, and even a few patches of weeds. It was in a patch of burdock one of the hens decided to make her nest. Every day she laid an egg for about three weeks after which time she deserted me for the nest. The other hen soon followed suit. I was extremely lonely, roosting by myself at night and wandering aimlessly about through the day. Then suddenly one day I heard one of the hens calling excitedly I wasted no time, but with all possible speed raced to her side. What a beautiful sight I beheld! Little balls of fluff, supported by frail, yellow legs. I immediately began gathering some of the numberless little gnats which filled the air. I was no longer lonely. In the morning I heard a sharp voice calling me to duty. With flying legs and outstretched wings I hurried to my charge for the day. All went well until a second family was hatched. This hen called as did her predecessor. I started to fly to her. Almost immediately I heard from behind me the command, Come back, come back. I turned obed- iently. What could I do? I give myself credit that I solved the problem in a very wise way by enticing one mother to accompany me to the other mother's nest. The second brood was quite as charming as the first, but I did not freely enjoy their loveliness. My life was now a torment. To keep peace between two very jealous mothers and to feed two very hungry broods was beyond my ability. As the summer advanced, the children grew and in time were able to fight their own battles. I was relieved of quite a bur- den. Moral: Take it from me, an experienced Guinea rooster-don't be at bigamist. Audrey Brooks. The editor wheelid her chair aramid and pressed a button on her desk.

Name cf magic mystery, meeting' place of East and West, metropclis of antiquity, how you stir and sadden the hearts of many with your gilded treachery. Dick Cruloe swore softly. How he hated Shanghai, now, and hcw he had loved it but a short while ago. Had he not been the financial genius who cou1dn't possibly lose? Had he not been one of the East's most lavish entertainers, the most popular host in Shanghai? And now, he was but a piece of white flotsam floating aimlessly in this sargasso sea of the East. The parched faces of his equally destitute yellow brothers the wondered gloomily if a white man and yellow could be brothers J loc med about him everywhere. Even the Tiny Buddha seemed despondent and gloomy, as he sat on his aged altar. Farther down, by the quiet Chinese stream a frail old man sat at the foot of a tiny shrine, the type of which dot China from east to west, from north to south. Cruloe had met the old man a number of times. They were Upardners out of luck, both English and therefore as Anne Shirley would say, kindred spirits. Today as Cruloe came to their rendezvous, he notic- ecl hcw tired and lifeless his old friend was. Quietly he slid down beside him and together they stared out over the quiet waters Cruloe was aroous- ed from his reverie by the other's hard, steel-like voice. Win only fifty now Cruloe, but I have nothing, absolutely nothing to Icck fgrward to, nothing to keep me alive. I should be a respected major in the British Army in Calcutta now but .... He ceased and his burning eyes sought the sordid, repulsive scene be- hind him. When no spzke again, salty tears stood in his eyes and his voice was strangely gentle. You see, lad. I came out to India with my pretty little English wife twenty years age. I have never seen a woman quite as beautiful as she with her gflfcn hair, blue eyes, and pink and white skin. Well, I was a private in the army posted at Calcutta. My wife was a favourite with everyone. She had a lovely disposition. She was too good for me. I know that . . now. I guess that I was bcrn to be wicked. I tried, only my Heavenly Father knows how I tried but I couldn't go straight. We were moved to Burma and there I surrendered myself completely to the wine cup. My colonel, because he admired and pitied my brave, little wife, kept word of misconduct from his monthly reports. Gradually liquor lost its effect and I developed a mad craze for drugs. My wife Wilted gradually, like a lovely flower. I was in the cell fir disorderly conduct when she died. Something' snapped inside of me. My old pride in my uniform and my position fled I, I . . . deserted. Cold, bitter tears flowed from his drug-crazed eyes. Roughly he grasp- ed Crulce's hand and into it thrust a dirty scrap of paper and muttered bro- kenly Take this .... winning ticket in . . . in Sweepstakes. May God bless you! The old man tottered off very slowly. Curiously Cruloe unfolded the paper. Yes, it was true-it really was the winning tcket. Across his mind flashed many glorious plans as he stood idly staring at this piece of fortune so strangely his. The breeze was increasing, but in his preoccupation he noticed it not. Suddenly his whole body shook-the breeze had stolen his for- tune. Dumbly he watched as the ticket fluttered down upon the disturbed waters and vanished. Richard Cruloe laughed bitterly and a cruel smile passed swiftly over his tight lips. Yes, he and the old man were the play- things of fate-the puppets of the gods. 40 Ruth Durham PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Destiny Second Prize, Senior Short Story Contest. The northern night was bitterly cold and the keen wind cut like the steel blade of a naked sword. The hard snow crackled and snapped under the runners of Corporal King's sleigh as he sped northward behind his dog- team. King gloried in his dogs. Well did they deserve their reputation as the speediest and hardiest huskies north of Edmonton. To-night he was gamb- ling his life on these very characteristics but the odds seemed to be against him. His sprained ankle was hurting hfm again so that every move was torture but he grit his teeth and forged on. Mile by mile passed in a hazy, half-comprehensible fashion until finally unable to endure the agony any longer, King made camp in a copse of pine trees. He threw the last of his dried fish to the dogs and then crawled into his sleeping-bag, too exhausted even to light a fire. Soon despite the pain he fell into a feverish sleep. The yapping of the hungry dog-team roused King the next morning. A foreboding calm hung over everything. Heavy clouds blotted out the sun and the feel of snow was in the air. He heated the last of his tea over a small fire and gave his remaining biscuits to the hungry dogs. Warmed by the fiery liquid he managed to harness the restless dogs and to commence once again his dash for life. Despite his injured ankle, King considered that he had a fair chance of reaching Fort Norman and safety before nightfall, provided the snow held off. But the gods seemed to be against him. When he was scarcely five hundred yardshfrom his former camp, the first snowflake floated lazily down, brushing his cheek like the clammy hand of death. Thicker, faster, fell the snow until the trail became almost indistinguishable. Once again the gods mocked King. Sandy, his lead dog whimpered and halted to lick his bleeding feet, cut to shreds by the icy snow. To his dismay King saw that every dog was in a similar condition and he was forced to lessen his pace to a mere walk. At the end of five miles the snow was falling so thickly that he was unable to see the trail. Once more he pitched his camp in a small hollow. For a day the blizzard raged while King chafed at the delay. Every hour he and his dogs were growing weaker and their chances of safety slimmer. Finally on the morning of the second day the blizzard stopped and King resolved to make a dash for Fort Norman, three miles away. He stumbled on behind his staggering team. Only a half a mile to go, he could even see the Fort, when the storm broke again. Writhing and twist- ing a blanket of snow swept from the west and engulfed the struggling fig- ures. King cut his dogs loose from the traces and stumbled forward. He tot- tered, fell, staggered to his feet again and went on. His feet refused to move and he fell again. He stirred uneasily and snuggled into the deep luxur- ious snow. Its softness and warmth surrounded him and he drifted off into unconsciousness.

Above the British Empire there swung a flaming sword, upheld by a slender cord, and on its blazing tip there glowed a great, red drop of blood. In the world below men schemed and plotted evil, and the warlords of Ger- many turned loose their great, grey fighting hordes on defenceless Belgium. 'The sword grew smeared with blood, the slim thread snappedg the great blade fell, and plunged straight into the heart of Britain. The titantic struggle of the Great War began. From far across the sea fcame Canada, and gripped in her strong, young clasp the beseeching hand of her Motherland. Glorious was her answer to the call of the Sword! When the bugles sounded, when the trumpets blaredg when the guns belched forth their deadly fire, into this burning, seething hell she flung her youth, the flower of her manhood-a living sacrifice to a greedy, grasping God of War. Canada sent her boys to the Great War with high hope that it was tre- mendously worth while. In her eyes was the sight of vision-in her soul a desire to serve. And how well they fulfilled the trust committed to them! In every rank of overseas service they were found. Their names were written on the roll-calls of the Expeditionary Force, the Naval Service, the Royal Air Force and the Red Cross. And in every branch they won renown for their loyal support and magnificent service to the Allied cause. On the battlefield they won an unparalleled reputation for gallantry and determination, and were recognized as among the best troops in the Allied armies. Undoubtedly, they saved the situation for the Allies time and time again. At Ypres, in 1915, they faced one of the most terrible at- tacks in the history of warfare. But they stood their ground with desper- ate courage until reinforcements arrived. That day, but for them, the ene- my would have made a great advance. ' The reputation they won at the outset, they sustained until the end. It was they who made the most brilliant and successful attacks at the Somme, in 1916g it was they who captured the formidable German defen- ces at Vimy Ridge and Passchendaele, the following yearg and it was they who constituted the advance troops in the assault that smashed the famous Hindenburg line. On November the eleventh, just before the signing of the Armistice, they entered Mons, and had the war continued, another ac- complishment would have been added to their glorious list. The Naval Service, also, owed some of its success to Canada. The vessels in the Canadian Naval Service included every type of warship known-cruisers, submarines, training-ships, destroyers, and a large flo- tilla of motor launches for harbour defence. These ships were manned by over five thousand Canadians, principally members of the Naval Volunteer Reserve. In addition to those serving on Canadian vessels, nearly two thou- sand were recruited to the Imperial Navy, and many of them won distinc- tion in this field of service. 42 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Of great value for the purposes of war was the Royal Air Force, ands in its ranks were 12,000 Canadians, skilled aviators and daring scouts. At least one-third of the pilots and forty per cent of the officers in the force were Canadians. In the latter stages of the war Canada became a reservoir from which the R. A. F. drew much of its best material, and not a few achieved reputations as aces, Captain W. A. Bishop, a native of Owen Sound, Ontario, held the record for the number of planes brought down on the British front, and so far as is known only one German airman and one French airman exceeded his wonderful record. In the Red Cross work Canadians played a splendid part. Besides doc- ber of two thousand four hundred tors and surgeons, women to the num went overseas to do their bit. And they did a wonderful work. Theirs wete the hands that strove to relieve suffering and paing to cool the aching browg to take the place of mother, sweetheart, and wife. Their war was one against disease and death. They toiled and slaved to the limit and be- yond it, with amazing endurance and force of will and nerve. Forty of 'these noble Canadian women laid down their 'lives for the Cause, and their services were of incalculable value to the Allies. No less glorious than the exploits of Canada's sons and daughters on the battlefield were the heroic efforts of those who stayed at home. With whole-hearted patriotism every energy was bent to assist those abroad, and the economic aid which Canada gave to the Allies was as highly esteemed as her overseas service. Their work was not, perhaps, spectacular. They suffered in silence: they gave up their loved ones without complaintg they remained behind to toil quietly and indefatigably at the work the others had laid down. In the munition factories they turned out 75,000,000 shells. They manufactur- ed and packed millions of barrels of flour and thousands of pounds of beef. They loaned S800,000,000 in Victory Bonds to the government for war pur- poses, and willingly paid heavy taxes to furnish the interest for these bonds. In this home work, too, the women played a noble part. They replaced the men who were called to the colours, in the commercial and industrial life. They took their places in banks, and offices and factories. They took a share in agricultural duties, and assisted in the motor transport work. Women's clubs and societies all through the country diverted their energies to special war work, and were of the greatest service. Thus, Canada contributed to the success of the Allies in the Great War. She bravely gave her sons and her daughtersg her economic aid and politi- cal supportg her spirit of love and idealistic self-sacrifice. And she contin- ued giving until the end, drawing upon her last resourcesg until a silence pervaded the battlefield--an alien silence, unknown since the fall of that blood-stained swordg until that sword was withdrawn from Britain's war- sore, aching heart, and peace reigned supreme once more.

To-day, war-clouds are lowering on the horizon, darker even than during the years preceding 1914-1918. Canada entered the last war with the belief that she was doing her part to end war and to make the word safe for democracy. But in 1934, it is gen- erally acknowledged that no such result was obtained and that the last was a mass muroer firm which no lasting advantage was derived. Some countries are apparently preparing for war, and this forces other countries to maintain and increase their defensive armaments. They regard peace as a dream, something which, if ever attained, will not be for years to come. Statesmen in some countries to-day seem to have given up working fcr peace, and instead, are trying to form alliances so that eventually they will be members of the strongest party. How, you may ask, can Canada with her ten million people influence these mighty nations, so that once again, they may turn their eyes towards the golden altar of Peace? The best answer to this question is contained in the one word Example, A country is just the sum total of the individuals composing it, and it is as ready to follow a fine example as you or I may be. The cause of war to-day is not the desire for war on the part of the mass- es of the people. The individual as an individual is against war, but as a mass we are very weak in expressing our opinion. Canadians seem to have difficulty in realizing that the world is an armed camp and that the nations are supplied with the deadliest weapons ever invented. Propaganda is the chief cause of war. There are certain men in the world who desire war. These are the munition manufacturers who make vast profits by selling mu- nitions to opposing countries. In their greed for money, they give mislead- ing statements to newspapers, which they often control, in order to stir up hatred between countries. If their efforts are successful, war is the result. So great is their power in some countries that they control the foreign po- licy of the government of that country. These munition manufacturers, who make vast profits out of the country, often decide the question of war or peace. Canadians and people of other nations seem to have lulled themselves into a false security by thinking that all they have to do to maintain peace is to cry out Down with War and We want peace. They forget that war is a social disease which spreads easily, and that unless action is taken to combat it, an epidemic breaks out. People are trying to attain peace to- day, but their efforts are mainly ineffectual, chiefly because they are work- ing on the wrong system. Their hearts are not in their work, because they do not believe that a lasting peace is possible. Canadians who desire peace must work on a Christian basis if they wish to reach their goal. One of the precepts of Christianity is to love your neighbour as yourself. When Canadians learn this principle, the day will come when peace will not be a golden dream but a reality. 44 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Canadians must educate themselves in the ways of peace. It is their duty to learn to co-operate with other countries and not to put their own selfish ambitions first. In order to promote peace, special attention should be paid to the moulding of the minds of the Canadian youth, so that they may be brought to realize that war is a curse and that peace is a blessing- It is especially important that young Canadians be educated to recognize this fact because they, in the years to come, will control the destinies of the world. The people of Canada must abolish the fanatical patriotism which blinds their eyes to all countries except their own. If they truly desire peace, they have to acknowledge that arbitration and conciliation should be the foreign policy of their government. How much better is arbitration than war as a means of settling international disputes! To forward the interests of peace, Canada has to support various organ- izations, such as the Canadian Legion, which advocates peace instead of war. It is their objective to promulgate the peace movement and to de- velop and organize public opinion for peace. They are trying to teach the Canadian peope not to be hasty in coming to decisions, but to think calmly regarding the question of war. They know that non-thinking people do much to spread the germs of war and therefore they are giving Canadians every opportunity to learn to think along these lines. The cause of peace must be taught in the schools and churches throughout Canada, and from their earliest childhood Canadians ought to be schooled in the ways of peace. Theatres should be made to use their great influence to tell the people of Canada that the adventure of peace is far more glorious than the horrors of war. The government of Canada should support radio broadcasts which pro- mote the cause of peace, and encourage the publishing of pictures in news- papers. These pictures can aptly describe to the people of Canada the hor- rors of war. Canada is a member of the greatest peace society in the world, The League of Nations. Here is her greatest chance to proclaim to the world that she desires peace. But Canada has to learn to use the league as part of her public life. Through the agency of the League of Nations, Canada can do her part to abolish war propaganda and war-profiteering. She can take advantage of the League to stir up a vigorous and live public opinion for peace and to stamp out purposeful misrepresentation. The League of Nations is the strongest agency obtainable for the discouragement of war. Through the League the nations can present a united front to any war-like country. They are able to erect world-wide tariffs and boycotts against the would-be conqueror and to nip her ambition in the bud by refusing to grant her any credit. The League of Nations can become what the nations of the world wish it to become. If the nations genuinely desire peace they can ob- tain it. Canada must and can learn to use the League in the cause of peace. She can cast her vote in the League against the strengthening of armies and navies and support arbitration as a means of settling disputes peacefully. Canadians have to make up their minds about the wrongs of war. They must see to it that the government of their country is a strong supporter of peace. They cannot evade the question any longer. They have to get rid of all the confusion and face the question squarely. When Canadians learn to spread the knowledge that war is disastrous and destructive, not con- structive, and to disseminate that knowledge throughout the country, the world will have a concrete example of How Canada can work for World Peace.

If you do know your Physics, you've got nothing to worry about. If you don't know your Physics, you've got two things to worry about-whether you get caught or not. If you don't get caught, you've got nothing to worry about. If you do get caught, you've got two things to worry about-whether you get detention or not. If you don't get detention, you've got nothing to worry about. If you do get deten- tion, you've got two things to worry about-whether you get your question right or not. If you do get your question right, you've got nothing to worry about. If you don't get your question right, you've got two things to worry about-whether you're going to pass in Arithmetic or not. If you do pass in Arithmetic you've got nothing to worry about. If you don't pass in Arith- metic, you've got two things to worry about-whether you have to take your report home or not. If you don't have to take your report home, you've got nothing to worry about. If you do have to take your report home, the spanking you get is all due to not knowing your Physics.

They robe their graceful limbs in shorts of red, orange, yellow, green, blue or violet, and strut vainly up and down the field, displaying their physical charms before us poor mortals who are not supplied with spidery legs and elephan- tine feet fthe apparent requisites for success in Field Day antics.J The Standing Broad really tickles one's sense of humour. The strutting athlete poises daintily on the spring-board, toes curled artistically over the edge, knees curved in Grecian bend. She throws her arms about like a fly- swatter, tucks her knees under her chin, and soars through the air like- Cthis time the simile is the fly itselfb. After several moments' battle with the elements, she comes back to earth with the spectators whistling Here come the British with a bang! bang! Then we must protect our sensi- tive ears from the deluge of choice invectives as the jumper discovers the few paltry feet that she has covered. What a tax on her vocabulary! QNote: The High Jump follows the general rule of procedure given above, except that the jump is vertical. For the benefit of First Formers, may I add that vertical means up and down.J Another form of gymnastics that vastly amuses the by-stander is the Target Throw. The prospective pitcher for the Varsity team approaches the pile of heaped-up baseballs Qcatch the veiled sarcasmb, finally selects one to her liking and returns to her point of vantage before the target. CPer- haps she knows that she is expected to hit one of the red, white and blue lines, and perhaps she doesn't. If she doesn't, she tries to impress us with the fact that she does, if she does ..... ditto.J She closes one eye to get the perspective of the bul1's-eye, twists her arm about qlike cranking a car, you knowj till she tires of the action, and then flings the ball in the general direction, of the target. Sometimes she hits it, usually she doesn't. After everyone has had a try Csuccessful or otherwisej someone gives a lesson in mental arithmetic, and adds up the points. CFor those who don't know, the highest score wins.J The Distance Throw and Throwing and Catching the Baseball are after the same style as the above, with but a few minor details changed. In the former, brawn takes the place of brain, and in the latter, you throw the ball at your partner instead of the target. The relays and dashes are lots of fun. Some girls are lined up with their toes on one side of a white line and their heels on the other. When they hear the report of a gun which is supposed to go off, but doesn't -- till the fourth or fifth attempt-they pick up their heels Chow did that ex- pression originate?b and run. They must not stop until they feel a rope running into their stomachs at the other end Cof the track, I meanj. May l repeat again, lt's lots of fun! By this time the would-be champions have decided to postpone their gymnastics till another year, and betake themselves, as quickly as their new-found dignity will permit, to the imposing structure of the booth. Here they proceed to gobble down poor, defenceless little doggies until their funds for their friends' generosityb gives out. Then they walk se- dately from the field, their aristocratic noses elevated, and self-satisfied smirks adorning their classic features. 63 Helen M. Wilkin. PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Si Lowdly to His Friend in Princeton Hello there Hiram: , Gosh, Hiram this is a swell school, but boy, I certainly am Sleepy- You know its a lot different here than in Princeton where. pa blows the lamp out at 9 o'clcck. I don't like people to think of me as Just a hay-Seed, S0 I never go to bed before 9.30-Gosh sakes but my red f1aI1I161S ltch- Ma Was down Sunday and made me put 'em on-and besides I only had three spares to-day. The first day I was here I got up at 4 o'clock, as USUH1, but when I went down stairs there was nobody there, so I took my mouth organ and started to play, Turkey-in-the-Straw . Mrs. Lotta GOSSID, thats my boarding-house lady, came down stairs and said if I ever got up at such an hour again she'd have me taken to Hamilton. That would be swell, wouldnt it, Hiram. I bet I'd have a lot of fun in Hamilton. I'd soon have a lot. or friends, too. As she went back up stains, I heard her mumble something about-f'off .... the head -but when I later looked in the mirror, I couldn't find anything missing, so I guess she didn't mean mc. What I really wanted to write to you about was the school. Say, Hiram, you ought to see the pretty girls down here, they sure knock your eye out . How's that expression? You can say that to Matilda sometime when you're out riding in the buggy. There's one girl here, Ever Joyful Cameron, and the other day, I was going through the lower hall, she rushed out, mussed up my hair, pulled my tie, then she laughed in the most horrible manner. I guess I blushed, cause she said I looked like a dead- beat. However, she is a member of IVth form, so I just didn't pay any atten- tion to her. Hiram, I'm going to tell you something now, but you must nev- er breathe a word of it to anybody. I think the members of IVth form are crazy, and so does everyone elsef They are called the Lost Tribe of P. H. S. Since they have no form, they just go wherever there's room for their classes. They stride through the halls, crash up and down stairs, slam doors just as though they owned the school. But this is what convinces me they're crazy. I was down in the hall the other day and seeing all the boys standing around in a circle with their hands in each other's hair, I thought I'd watch, One of the boys, Willfully Lazy Rutherford, a very peculiar person, who goes around at times all hunched up pretending to be an ape. He even scratches himself,+said UGO . Then all the boys started and made such a mess of each other's hair that it took a whole period to get it combed again. After they could muss up their hair no more, they proceeded to pull out ties and shirts, grinning all the while most ferociously. The girls just sat there looking on until Always Jumpin Sutherl d snickered, then Fully Lengthened Grigg and Wonderfully FooIish McC1?:w proceededdto muss up her hair. I thought it was very brutal and ungentle man y an I was going to force the boys to leave her alone when I heard Isn't Jealous Brown, the boy who is always imitating foolish radio comed- ians, whispered to the other boys who promptly started in my direction so I left. But remember you must never mention what I have said. The stu- dents are quite proud of the school, and so in order that there be no blot on its name IVth Form is never mentioned. The boys of the school should certainl be health . - cess the Jackson baker comes to the sch0o5I and is sigyiplymnigibiilybst :lie boys. Yesterday I asked Heavily Bearded Wells if I could help buy some. He put his arm around me in the most friendly fashion asked , h mlucli moneizy Ithad, ltlook the seventy-five cents I showed him andmshoutirvtg t t ' ' a was rea ing t e crowd. I had one tart, it was pretty good too. As soon as the boys buy all the supplies of the baker-Gee, this underwear certainly does itch-the' girls walk up the sidewalk in front of the school casting appealing- glances at the boxes of tarts, cakes, buns and pies in the boys' hands. But they never offer the girls any. They're awfully hard- hearted. I gave two of the girls some cakes the other day and ever since the boys have- called me A weakling succumber to the unappreciative fem- ininity , whatever that is. I guess thai don't all understand the fine points PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK of my character. Mr. Butcher ccmes to the door every recess to ring the bell and just stands at the door watching the boys eat. I suppose he's hungry, too, but feels that it is beneath him to eat with the lowly students. The other day in Latin period, Miss Cowan asked me to conjugate a verb. I didn't hear her and asked Just Handsome Murray what it was and he said Betteraskor . So I replied: Betteraskor, betteraskari, betterask- atus sum. Every one laughed. I guess I'm not very bright in Latin. I don't mind, though, because Mr. Butcher says my brain isn't developed yet, but queer things do happen. Maybe someone has taken a school typewriter, I haven't heard. There's a boy in Vth form who struts around with his head up in the air and his chest out just like that prize rooster I had at the school fair. The way he talks to and argues with Miss Ramsay in English period is just ter- rible, and what he says is so silly. Demure Maiden Schuyler told me was the -'s son. I suppose that makes a difference. Gee, I've got a composition to write for to-morrow, so l'd better get busy. The last time I went without my composition done, Miss Ramsay said the best thing to do was to ignore me completely. I guess I'll write about the time I thought I saw a ghost at our place, but it was only pa in his white flannel nightshirt. Your old pal, ' Deleted by the censor. Si Lowdly. 1,l.i1..-. NEW CLUB ORGANIZED AT P. H. S. It was quite a surprise to many of the boys to learn that some of our enterprising girls had organized a decidedly novel club, The Free, Inde- pendent and Idiotic Association of Gigglersf' It is rumored that the girls felt that there should be greater uniformity in the technique of giggling. Ac- cordingly, they formed this semi-secret society where those who had passed a preliminary, probationary period might meet for practice, self help and gl:-ineral improvement in the most ancient and difficult task of proper gig- g ng. The Club has a number of principles upon which it is founded. Some of these are: Q19 Only those who can giggle at least 99 per cent of the time can join. C25 The latest, most modern and effective method of laughing must be used. You must form your mouth into an artistic oval, place your ton- gue against your ivory tusks, let the giggle rumble right up from the soles of your feet, shake your Adam's apple, and make its exit by way of the afore- mentioned oval in the pretty 175 face. C33 When you have started laughing, don't stop for at least 15 minutes. It just isn't done. d At the last meeting, held on Oct. 35th, the following officers were elect- e : Chief Giggler-Ruth Durton. Assistant Laugher--Grace Dinsmore. Secretary of Hee-Haws-Audrey Streams. Treasurer of Guffaws-Helen Bonn. Instructor of the favoured candidates in the rare art of infectious mirth -Betty Camden. The candidate who wishes to enter this far-famed club, must go through all the initiation rites. Blindfolded, she enters a darkened room. All about her in tones and half-tones rings ghostly laughter, grinning faces appear and disappear. Then a Voice bids her exercise her vocal chords by giggling in various keys and pitches. She stands before the raised platform and practices peal after peal of laughter. Finally, a report of her progress is handed to her. She discovers the door and-escapes with one last burst of scared merriment. After her initiation, she has certain duties to perform to uphold the honour and prestige of the society. She must indulge in a giggling fit daily, preferably during classes, she must steal,bor1'ow or beg new membersg she must teach others to laugh long and loudly fthe method approved by the recently-formed societyj. Last of all, the victim fa free translation of memberj must swear al- legiance to her giggles in spite of trials, tribulations, lines, detentions, pun- ishments, retributions, nemesis or bribes.

Together in one room. 67 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Sydney H. Gould The name of Sydney H. Gould has always been connected, more or less, with one of the finest scholastic achievements ever recorded at Paris High School. Syd's almost uncannv performance of winning, or qualifying, for six scholarships upon his graduation from our school, is an accepted fact that every boy and girl from that time has regarded with a slight amount of aweg the writer, however is more concerned with a resume of that which is not commonly known, and that is, what Sydney has done since Senior Matriculation. Leaving Paris in 1925, he registered at the University of Toronto, where he became Gold Medallist of Victoria College, in his first year. Then, to prove that this success was no accident, he proceeded to make the winning- of it a yearly occasion throughout his Victoria College course. His univer- sity graduation in 1929 was followed by the announcement of his being awarded a Kellogg Scholarship, carrying with it the privilege of three years study at Yale University. Syd. accepted the scholarship, and at the end of his term became the proud possessor of his Ph.D. Coupled with this acquisi- tion, was the Fellowship of the American Classical Association enabling him to continue his studies at the Archaeological Excavations in the American School of Classical Studies in Athens, Greece. At the termination of his European course, Sydney returned to Yale University, where he lectures at the present time. This little summary of Syd's wonderful success is written by a class- mate of his, who, as he reads over the above, is inclined to the belief that a prophet is indeed without honour in his own country! We never realized we were up against such opposition! Terrence F. Flahiff. i. i.-i. Sylvanus Apps On Friday, November 25, 1932, the valedictory address to the depart- ing class of 1932 was given by Sylvanus Apps. He had by then entered McMaster University and already begun there to carve for himself a niche in the hall of fame. Many reports and stories of his athletic and scholastic prowess came back to us who had been his team-mates in sport and friends in class. 1-le easily made his place on the hockey, rugby and track teams of his University. He later became a member of. the Hamilton Olympic Club, and it was as a member of that club that he came to be widely known in Ontario as a pole-vaulter of great ability. But to us in Paris, it came as a very great surprise when we learned that Sylvanus had taken first place in the pole vault in the British Empire Trial Games for the Canadian Olympic Team, which were held at Hamilton, last July. Therefore, it was with a great deal of interest that we watched the pa- pers for news of the British Empire Games held at Wembly Stadium in ' 68 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK England. Finally, one morning our eyes beheld in huge headlines across the sporting page of our daily papers: S, APPS WINS POLE VAULT FUR CANADA. I am sure that it was with a great deal of pride that we all read this announcement. A home-town boy had not only brought fame and glory to himself and the place of his birth, but also to the school where he began his great athletic career. We remember well how he practised on our campus, night after night, in preparation for the W.O.S.S.A. Meets, held in London, Ont. There, in 1930 he made the Junior W.O.S.S.A. record of 10 feet, and in 1932, the Senior record of 11 feet, 63A inches. It was in London, England, on August 6, 1934, that he set a new British Empire record of 12 feet, 9 inches, a mark that we all hope will be beaten only by himself. In honour of his remarkable achievement, on August 21, the Town of Paris tendered him a civic reception and presented him with a gold wrist- watch. Later he was also honoured at a banquet in Hamilton as a mem- ber of the Hamilton Olympic Club. So, Sylvanus Apps, we, the members of the Paris High School salute you. Your name will always remain deeply enscrolled in the annals of the school. For, you are, without a doubt, the greatest athlete that ever entered our portals. May you always keep your same high standard of clean living and clean sportsmanship. And so, in closing, we dedicate these words to you: lt mattered not whether you won or lost, But how you played the game. Jack Cunningham. 1 w - rl' 1 xl .lux ,-gf 'I -,X ,' ' Q ', 1' 1 it lf'v1,+, e Qliayifj Pg N . 4 ll 9 ll I fx if 'flf Qlf 7?y,. 'G ef . Sad' -ef -OW -5..

R 7 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK FDANCE On May 15, 1934, Jessie Eileen France, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James H. France, passed away, after a brief illness. Eileen was born in 1915 at Almonte, Ontario, where she attended the Public and High Schools. She entered Paris High School in 1930 but due to ill-health, was forced to leave in December, 1932. She later return- ed for a short time in the fall of 1933. Never very strong, she was however always cheerful and bright and earn- ed a wide circle of friends. BDODKS One of the saddest deaths among the pupils of Paris High School was that of Alan Clayton Brooks, who pass- ed away but two hours after an accident which happen- ed on his way home from school, December 1, 1933. The late Alan Brooks, son of Mr. and Mrs. Morley E. Brooks, was born in 1919 on the Brooks' homestead, Burford Township. He attended the Perley School and after two years in the Central School, Paris, passed the Entrance examinations. Although Alan had been only three months in the High School, his kindly personality and honesty won for him many friends who mourn his loss. BDADLEY There passed away at the Willett Hospital on Fri- day, November 30th, 1934, David Lloyd, son of the late Mr. James Bradley and Mrs. Bradley. Born at Paris on August 6, 1918, Lloyd attended the Paris Public School and entered the High School in the fall of '33. At school Lloyd distinguished himself as an athlete, when at the Field Meet in 1933 he was runner-up for the Intermed- iate Championship. Although he did not win at his first W.O.S.S.A. Meet, held in London last May, he made a very creditable showing in the 100-yard dash. Lloyd was fatally injured while diving in the Nith River on July 19 last, and for months bore with heroic patience untold pain and suffering. A boy of fine physique and modest bearing, manly, honourable, and clean-living, Lloyd endeared himself to all.

It needs the co-op- eration and support of willing friends, both within and without the school. This year that support and co- operation has been unstintedly given, and our gratitude and appreciation are great. Without the continued assistance of local and out- of-town advertisers it would be impossible to finance this hook, of which we are so proud. We give to them our sincerest thanks, and hope for their assistance in fu- ture years. We are extremely grateful to the Paris Branch of the Canadian Legion. Their interest in education was expressed once more in awarding prizes to the pupils of the school for the best essays on What Canada Can do to Preserve World Peace. Thank you, Legion! Our appreciation is also due to our staff-advisers, Miss McKenzie and Mr. Smith, who have given un- grudgingly of their time and advice, to Mr. Butcher for all his ideas and assistance, and to Miss Phyllis Telfer for typing our material, thus sparing us many hours of writing. We express our gratitude to the staff of the school for their interest in our literary achievements. By giving prizes for short stories and poetry, they have stimulated greater love of literature in our hearts. We sincerely hope your interest will continue, oh members of the staff! 3.3..g..g..g..g..g..g..g..g..g..g..:.4--:up-:o-:o-:--:-o:--:v!vv2w20-Z-- -Z' 'I Z Z Z I !' 7f'I I I' '5 3 Z I 2 ! ?'Z Z I 'l Z 2 I 5 I ?'Z I'i' I 'I' Q0 'I' 555 n.. 0:0 'I' 0:0 0:0 0:0 0:0 Q0 'I' .3 0? 0,0 0? 0 Q aio 0'o 2 's 'o 0' .if 0 0.0 .g. 0?
