This new course was introduced in Grade IX last September. For fif- teen years, a choice of subjects was allowed pupils upon their entrance to high school. Experience has shown that very many students were not then in a position to make a suitable selection. It seems to me that a very large proportion of the failures under our former system was the result of this inability to choose subjects suitable to the abilities and aptitudes of the scholars. Since all the students will not attend the same length of time and all cannot profit most from the same course of study, our educational authori- ties must provide instruction in as many useful branches of learning as pos- sible and help the students select the subjects that will be most valuable to them after leaving school. Besides, they must so arrange the content of each subject that the students will have knowledge and training of definite value when they leave school before the completion of their course. All the students now take the regular Grade IX course in the Hrst year. During this year, the students and their parents must decide upon the most suitable choice for the coming years. It is probable that in Paris High School there will be three main courses commencing in the second year: I. The academic for those who will enter the professions, II the commercial for those who will seek business positions, III a general course, without La- tin, for those who do not Wish a specialized training. Thus, in the second year, there will be compulsory and optional sub- jects. Time will not permit a student to take all these subjects. In many cases, the pupils and their parents will be able to make the choice without any advice. But there will be a few who may wish further information and guidance. Such students and their parents are cordially invited to consult the principal next May or June. Our young people will not be able to profit most fully from this new course unless there is the fullest co-operation between the parents and the principal. It is my earnest wish that each parent will consider thisla per- sonal invitation to consult with me concerning any educational problem. C.

Barrett PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 3 Message jfrum the Baath uf Duration Again we wish to extend congratulations to those graduating from our school, and to wish them every success. May we urge them to continue their educational endeavours, whether in college, in the store, or in the fac- tory. Although many services have been curtailed or discontinued during the recent period of unrest, those of education have been continued without in- terruption. For this, governments and educational organizations are to be commended, and those interested should be grateful. The importance of education is thoroughly recognized because of its past record, and no sacrifice must be considered too great to continue its excellent services. Its value cannot be estimated in terms of dollars and cents, and its dividends can best be stated in terms of endowment to indi- viduals of character, judgement and knowledge. At this season of the year, we extend to the pupils and staff of our High School our best wishes for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. F. H. Jeffery, On behalf of the Board.

At the early age of five she began her school career at the Central School, and graduated in 1930, winning the Third Penman Scholarship. During her years at P. H. S., Gwen was a member of the executive of the Girls' Athletic Association and of the staff of the Quill. To-day she is a member of this year's graduation class and will receive Junior Matriculation and Commercial Diplomas.

GEORGE LYNDON BOSWVORTH CAnd then the whining school-boy with his satchel-And his shining morning face, creeping like a snail unwillingly to school.-Shakespeareb George Lyndon was the gift of October 27, 1919, to Mr. and Mrs. George Bosworth. After running the family machine eiiciently for some years, Lyn decided to embark upon the royal road to learning. He began his education in 1925 at Central School, and in' 1932 passed his entrance and entered Paris High School, where he soomprovefl ,himself a popular favourite among boys and girls alike. Q Lyn is graduating this year with his Junior Matriculation, and is now studying radio, television and sound engineering. All his friends wish him the best of luck. 9 Q E. M. C. -. f 7-2 bl 4 RITA BRADLEY October 21, 1919, to Mr. and Mrs. J. Bradley, Nottingham, England, a daughter, Rita. Such was the announcement that heralded the entrance of a tiny, dark-haired baby into this great big world. Her parents studied the situation, and decided that England was not quite large enough in which to raise a child, especially a girl. Thus it was that at nine months of age little Rita set out for the wide open Canadian spaces. Paris, Ontario, was her chosen destination. When she was five years old Rita commenced her educational career at Paris Central School. After a few short years she finished her public schooling, passing with first class honours and capturing second prize in the Board of Education scholarship awards. During the five hectic years spent at Paris High School she delighted many audiences with her beautiful piano solos, and many a crowd with tastefully prepared lunches Cshe served on lunch committee after lunch committeeb. Now her high school days come to an end. Rita won the Latin Scholarship donated by Dr. Geoffrey Bell in honour of his father. She graduates this year with the best wishes of the '37 graduating class. She is now attending Day's Business College in Brantford. Good luck pal! Keep your chin up! E. J. P. Ru, 'B .1 .4 5 IL, PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 5 VERA MARGUERITE BRADLEY One day, back in 1916, a certain Haxen haired infant made it quite clear by much cooing and crowing that that day, August 10th, was of public interest if for no other reason than her arrival. She was Vera Marguerite, daughter of Mrs. Bradley and the late James Bradley. Her earlier years were occupied by dolls and mud pies and numerous other matters of interest to the very young. At the age of six she entered Paris Public School. From here she graduated in 1929, and continued her quest for knowledge in the halls of good old P.H.S. She obtained her Ju- nior Matriculation in 1935 and left school. On thinking over the matter of education seriously Vera decided to re- turn to school last fall and now has completed her Honour Matriculation. Throughout her sojourn at P.H.S. Vera was immensely popular. She held the offices of Treasurer and Critic in the Literary Society, and this year was successful in carrying off the Modern History Scholarship awarded by the Imperial Order of the Daughters of the Empire. At present she is attending lVIcMaster University. We all join in wish- ing her much success and happiness. 4 I 5 'I J.K.M. ,gg gb MILTON L. G. BROOKS On Nov. 8th., 1917, a second son came to bless the home of Mr. and Mrs. Sidney B. Brooks in Burford Township. After due consideration, for it was an important question, the proud and happy parents decided to call this lit- tle blessing Milton. And so it was. For five years Milton lived at home, but in 1922 he was seized with Wanderlust and decided to move. Thus it was that the Br0ok's family took up their abode south of Paris. The following year Milton entered Public School where he soon demonstrated his ability in the three R's. In 1930, de- sirous of attaining even greater scholastic heights, he enrolled at Paris High School. For six years Milton worked diligently till at last his efforts were rewarded and he became the proud possessor of his Sr. Matriculation. During his stay at P.H.S. Milton took a prominent part in school activi- ties. He was President of the P. H. S. Choir during the first year of its ex- istence. Besides his musical C?j duties he found time to assist on the staff of the Quill, to take part in Field Day and last but not least to win the Ma- thematics Scholarship for 1937. - Milton is at present taking First year Science at Queen's University, Kingston. We shall expect to hear great things from him in the future, and there is every indication that he- will more than fulfil the expectations of his many P. H. S. friends. G. H. J. 6 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK IVO JACK BROWN May 3, 1917-All Paris was bathed in the warm spring sunshine, the silence broken only by bursting buds and babbling brooks, when suddenly the waiting breathless thousands-well, Mr. and Mrs. Brown at least-were rudely and very noisily awakened to the fact that a new and dangerous menace to the community had arrived in the struggling form of none other than-Jack Brown! For ten long years he stormed up and down Banfield street and made life very, very interesting for the teachers of Paris Central School, and then he was quietly removed to St. Thomas. After a period of ten months, much to the relief of civic officials, he was moved to Stratford and three years later to Brantford. Here, Jack seriously took up the sport, which made him later so popu- lar with Paris sport fans, baseball. In inter-form, inter-school and inter- city games Jack never failed to star behind the bat. CWe take the liberty of adding that he gets along quite well when going inter young ladies' homes, thank youll , ' On his return to Paris, despite his diligent studies and concientious work as a druggist after school, Jack's generosity and ready wit soon esta- blished old friendships and claimed him many new ones. As Editor. of the Quill, and especially as staff reporter during the year of the Mad Fourth, fForm, to you 19353 his geniality and spontaneous humour always provided a bright spot in the otherwise routine Literary meetings. Though he is at present ably Hlling a position at Crooks Drug Store, we hope he never loses sight of his ambition to be a doctor. His natural un- selfishness and clear thinking are his positive guarantee of success. W. L. R. Wfgy ,LTL FRANKLIN KEITH BROWN On June 16th, 1919, the curtain rose for the first act in the life of Franklin Keith Brown, son of Mr. and Mrs. Welland Brown, of Paris. The second scene shows Keith toddling off to Paris Central School. The settings for the next scenes are St. Thomas Public School, Stratford Public School and Brantford Public School. He was successfull in passing his entrance in Brantford, 1932. In September, 1932, he enrolled at the Brantford Col- legiate Institute. For one year he absorbed history, geography, algebra, etc., in that noble school. In 1933, urged by a desire to return to his birth-place, he moved back to Paris. In that year he crossed the threshhold of P.H.S. for the first time. From the very first Keith was very popular with his fellow students. He was twice form reporter for the Quill, and lst Vice-President of the P. H.S. Athletic Society. He took an active part in all athletics, and played on the Junior and Senior Basketball teams for two seasons. Kieth is graduating this year with Senior Matriculation. At present he is working in Fraser I-Ii1born's clothing store in Paris. We wish you the best of success in' the future! R. P. W. PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 7 LESLIE CECIL COHN Happiness filled the home of Mr. and Mrs. Max Cohn on Sept. 8th, when their son, Leslie, made his advent in the year of 1917. His first seven years were spent tive miles north-east of Drumbo, but finding this part of the country too small for his adventurous mind, he left with his family for Hamilton. Here he passed one and a half years, which were spent in Pub- lic School. His next home was at Windsor and in this city in 1931, he pas- sed his entrance. But the call of his birth-place beckoned him and he re- turned to Drumbo. In the Continuation at Drumbo he studied well. His ability as an athlete was aptly shown by the prizes he won for his school in the Drumbo-Plattsville-Princeton Field Meets. After spending three years in the Drumbo Continuation School he journeyed to Paris, for his Senior Matriculation. His Senior Matriculation was completed at Woodstock Col- legiate the following year. The next year he spent at Paris. This time he took Commercial Work. During the year he assisted in the school choir along with other activities. Leslie is now in Toronto and all his school friends take this opportunity of wishing him every success in the future. G. S. C. , ,,. .i I V MARION GRACE DENNIS In common things that round us lie 3? Some random truth she can impartg The harvest of a jolly eye That lives and shines upon her heart. On October 27, 1918, Mr. and Mrs. D. L. Dennis received the gift of a little bundle of femininity whom they later called Marion Grace. At a ten- der age Grace began her education at South Ward School. She later went to Queen's Ward School and then to Central. In 1931 she passed her en- trance and entered Paris High School, where she spent six years. Grace was always active in school activities. She was editor-in-chief of the Quill for the spring and fall term of 1936-37, she took a very able part in the commencement plays, and was on the Editorial Staff of the Year Book in 1935 and 1936. Grace is now in training for a nurse in Victoria Hospital, London. All her friends join me in wishing her every success in her chosen profession. E. M. C. il.... . JAMES FREDERICK ELSON James Frederick--we never called him anything but Jimmy -Was born in Ayr on October 9th, 1917. When his mother could no longer endure his mischievous ways she decided 'to send him off to school. Thus it came about that Jimmy entered Kitchen's Public School at an early age. HOW- ever, in 1926, the family moved to Paris, and James continued his educa- tion at Queen's Ward, and later at the Central School. He was successful in passing his entrance examinations in June, 1931. September of the same year found Jimmy among the first formers in P.H.S. His sunny smile and ready wit soon won him favour with his fellow students. He took an active part in school life. He was ofteneform report- er for the Quill, and was once Secretary of the P.H.S. Literary Society. He proved himself an able actor by his brilliant portrayal of Admiral Brice in the play Green Stocking at Commencement 1935, and as the Chinese mandarin, Wang Chu Moo in Told in a Chinese Garden in 1936. At present Jimmy is working in the Watkins 8: Co. Right House in Hamilton. We all wish you great success in the future! R. P. W. IWBQB 8 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK MARJORIE ADELINA GILLIES Marjorie Adelina Gillies, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Gillies, inhaled her first breath of Paris air on May 22, 1919. After a few years, much to the relief of her parents, Marj. started on her educational journey. In 1932 Marj. passed her Entrance and was admitted to the P.H.S. halls of learning. During her sojourn here, she won many friends with her pleasing manner. Marj. displayed her athletic ability by winning in 1935 the Girls' Senior Championship. She also proved to be a skillful player on the School Basketball Team. To the Quill , she contributed the Girls' Sports. This year Marj. is taking a Secretarial Course at Day's Business Col- lege in Brantford. We all wish her good luck and success in the future. .L G. 1. H. GRAYCE ILENE I-IEANEY V Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Heaney, of Windsor, were blessed with a third daughter on Dec. 16, 1920, in the person of Grayce Ilene. She kept every- one on their toes for the first four years of her life, then, to the relief of her parents and sisters, she began her school career at the tender age of five. Grayce entered Patterson Collegiate in 1933, and had just spent an en- joyable term there when her parents moved to Paris. In 1934 Grayce en- tered Second Form at P.H.S. and continued for the next three years. Her quiet, pleasant manner won for her many friends. Grayce showed her sportsmanship by always enjoying a game of basketball. As she has graduated with her Junior Matriculation, Grayce is now at- tending the Brantford Business College and is taking the ,Secretarial Course. Best of luck Grayce, and may success be yours while taking the course and in securing a position! M. A. G. s if RUTH ELIZABETH IIICKSON It was on October 8th, 1919, that Ruth ventured out of the everywhere into the here. As her place of residence in the here, she chose the home of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Hickson in Ontario's most beautiful town, Paris. She was so pleased with her choice that it was not for six years that she was able to tear herself away and go down the hill to Paris Public School. There she found that her long curls figured prominently in a sort of Thread the Curl game that her companions played with her curls and their lead pencils. After a couple of years of stout endurance, Ruth cut off her troublesome curls and, putting childhood behind her, soon passed out of the confines of Public School into P.H.S. Even at this early date, Ruth showed promise of her later fame as one of the foremost laughers of P.H.S., and even then she tackled Latin with a skill that augured well for her later success with that subject. A mine of Latin information, Ruth was not selfish with it, but generously passed it on to any lazier and less well-informed classmates who begged her guidance through the maze of tenses, moods, genders, and declensions, and was al- ways ready to entertain them with surprising recollections of their early misdemeanors from her 'memoirs' In Chemistry period, her ready gene- rosity with the Sulphuric Acid bottle was sure to pep up any experiment. A student of no mean ability, Ruth graduates from High School with her full Honour Matriculation next year. She intends to enter training in Toronto General or Toronto Sick Children's Hospital. We're sure she'l1 be just as fine a nurse as she has been a schoolmate. M. E. J. 1 SP PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK ,yi 9 iq Q 99 .a MARY ELIZABETH JEFFERY On April 10, 1920, a daughter, Mary Elizabeth, was born to Dr. and Mrs. Jeffery. Mary's original ideas were already blossoming forth, so that Mrs. Jeffery found it necessary to send her to school to 1926. Mary was so clever that she soon bid farewell to Central School and entered Paris High School, but when she graduated in 1937, she was so averse to giving up her studies that she decided to take an honour course in English at Queens. which she will be doing next year. Mary capably fulfilled the offices of secretary of the Athletic Society, Athletic form representative, prophetess, and other offices. Everybody wished they could again have the pleasure of electing her. Mary loves arguments and the wide open spaces. She is widely known as the outdoor girl, since, missing scarcely a day, she traverses the hills and dales not far from the vicinity of Paris. It has been said that she resembles Garbo, the only exception being that she isn't the silent type. At present she is very industriously taking three subjects at school, and the first year Latin of University. Next year, she will continue her studies at Queens.

Under sunny Paris skies she lived a life of peace and contentment until January, 1923, when the Larin family moved to Hoosick Falls, New York. Betty, a five year old mischief, was taken along. After residing in Hoosick Falls for one year, they were influenced by the restless Betty to change to Bennington, Vt. Here Betty started down the royal road to learning by attending the Francis de Sales Academy. She graduated from this noble institution in June, 1932. However, in May of that same year her family returned to Hoosick Falls and Betty continued her education at H. F. High School for 0116 year. In June, 1932, they returned to 'tgay Paree, and thus Betty came to our halls of fame. From the very first she was very popular because of her sunny disposition. She took an active part in school life. She played on the Girls' Basketball team for two seasons. She served on the staff of the Quill as form reporter and was once secretary of the Literary Society. On September 1, 1937, Betty entered St. Joseph's Training School for nurses. And may I join with the P. H. S. pupils in wishing her success in her chosen profession? R. P. W.

The exact place was the home of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Lee, 14 Forbes Avenue, Guelph, Ontario. In order that George could begin his education at Keg Lane School, his family moved north of Paris, when he was a little lad. At the age of seven he was sent to Keg Lane School, and after many trials and tribulations he passed his entrance in 1933. . ln September he decided to extend his knowledge by attending Paris High School. During the years spent at P. H. S. he proved himself an able scholar and won many friends. This year he is graduating with Junior Matriculation. At present George is farming with his father north of Paris. We wish him lots of luck! , W. J. M. HAROLD SPRINGER LEE Harold, better know to the world as Speed, was born at the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Lee on Governor's Road, on January 12th, 1917. After spending six years in growing up to be a speedy CU little man, he was bundled off to the South Ward School in September, 1923. Two years later he changed to Queen's Ward School. Four more years were spent in the Central School before he passed his Entrance in 1930. During the years he was at P.H.S., despite his quiet manners, he gained many friends. ' At present Harold is attending Brantford Business College. A11 the P. H.S. pupils join with me in wishing him success in whatever future he de- cides upon. .. ' R. P. W. S M NORMAN KENNETH LINDSAY The gentleman is full of virtue, bounty, worth and qualities.-Shakespeare. On the memorable day of August 1, 1917, Norman Kenneth, son o Mr. and Mrs. R. G. Lindsay, made his appearance into the world in the ittle village of Ayr, Ontario. He later decided that Ayr was too small for him to display his manly qualities to good advantage, so he moved to Paris with his family. Norm passed his entrance in 1931 with honours, and entered Paris High School where he soon won many friends. He was always active in school activities, especially boys' sports. He was secretary-treasurer of the Boys' Athletic Association in 1936-37. Norm is now working at Penmans in Paris, and we all wish him every success. E. M. C. PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK ll DAVID McLAREN ' David came to this fair world on August 10, way back in 1918, in the thriving metropolis of Drumbo. His earlier life was spent in harmless mischief. At an early age he was bundled off to the Drumbo Public School. When he became too clever for that hall of learning he continued, natur- ally, at the Continuation School of Drumbo. He received his Junior Ma- triculation from that school in 1936. In order to further his knowledge he came to P. H. S. in September of that year. After spending one year in our far-famed school he decided to give it up and return to the sod. At present he is helping his father on the farm near Drumbo. He has hopes of becoming a licensed undertaker, and is serving his apprenticeship with an undertaker at Drumbo. R. P.

Her early years were spent on her father's farm where she used to feed the chickens and generally get into mischief. After five and a half years of exasperating and tormenting her mother. Elizabeth, at the fair Easter time, was trundled away to begin a new and intriguing life at the White School house. In the year 1932 Elizabeth pass- ed her entrance exams with honours. The following year she spent as a first-former in the Ayr Continuation School, but the next year she registered as a pupil in the Paris High School. During her four years at Paris, Elizabeth always passed her subjects with flying colours and especially in fifth form did she show her ability. Through- out her school life in Paris Elizabeth endeared herself to her large circle of friends and was indeed a 'swell pal' to all of us. At present Elizabeth is staying at home, but next year she hopes to en- ter Toronto General Hospital. May you have the best of luck and every possible success in your chosen career. B. T. M Q0 12 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK KIETH ALEXANDER MILLER On October 2nd., 1918, a new character was introduced on this great stage . This was Kieth Alexander Miller, son of Mr. and Mrs. Alex. Mill- er, born at his present home on No. 2 Highway, near Paris. After spending six years managing his family domain, he started to South Ward School in Sept., 1924. In 1926 he continued his education at the Central School. He graduated from there in June, 1931, and the following September he came to P.H.S. halls of learning. During his six years at P. H. S.

For seven years he initiated his mo- ther into the delicate art of child-rearing and thereupon proceeded to Keg Lane School, accumulating there sufficient knowledge to satisfy the Board of Examiners and gain entrance to P.H.S. During his career at this school Walt has not only obtained his Junior Matriculation but, by dint of a cheerful and quiet disposition, a host of friends. At present he is assisting his father in his plumbing business and attending night school in Brantford as a side line. D. G.

The first few years of his life were spent at his home on East Broadway St., in the beautiful town of Paris. And then school days came! Jimmy's preliminary education was obtained in Paris Central School. Here the shy little lad was a joy to his teachers because of his diligent ef- forts. Great was their sorrow when he graduated in 1930. In September of that year he came to brighten the halls of P.H.S. Dur- ing the years he spent there he proved himself an able scholar and won many friends. However, he decided that he needed a change of atmosphere, and left P.H.S. to take up a position in the Bank of Montreal, Paris. Jim is still working there, and we know he will go far in his chosen profession. . R. P. W. we ---A I MARJORIE JEAN PERRY Always cheerful and Smiling, A friend to all. Jean, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Perry, was born in Rich- wood on Dec. 10, 1921. When only a few months old she moved to the farm where she is now living, about three miles south of Ayr. At the tender age of five she started on the Road to Learning which lead her first to the White School, and then to Paris High School. At both schools she proved herself a clever scholar, and won for herself many warm friends who will miss her. She graduated with her Junior Matriculation and her Upper School English. Jean is home now trying to work French and Latin into her varied household duties. Good Luck, Jean! E. M. M.

Her flrst six carefree years Verna spent where the sun shines brighter, the air is purer and the birds sing sweeter-home on the farm south of Paris. At the end of that time, however, it was decided that she should get some education, and so she attended Perley School for six more years, at the end of which she passed with honors into Paris High School. Her years passed here have been very successful, for besides her stu- dies she has shared in the athletic and literary activities. Numbered among the clever students she has won two medals for Legion Essays. She was Editor-in-Chief of the 1936 Year Book, Treasurer of the Literary Society for the Spring term of 1937, Treasurer of the High School Choir of 1936-37, and played on the Girls' Basketball Team for the last two years. This year Verna graduated with flying colors, and is Valedictorian for her class of 1937. At present she is attending Hamilton Normal School. We, your classmates, wish you the best of success, Verna.

On May 8, 1918, a tiny visitor, later named Louise Grace, came to re- side at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Sovereign. After managing affairs at home for a few years Louise decided to begin her education by enrolling at Stone School, Paris. In 1931 she passed her entrance and crossed the threshhold of Paris High School. Louise was always active in school af- fairs, especially the social activities.

TAYLOR His smiling face and cheerful voice Dispelled the gloom everywhere. Out in Swift Current, Saskatchewan, on May 31, 1917, Mr. and Mrs. John C. Taylor were blessed with the gift of a son whom they called Glenn. Glenn's adventurous life led the family to move to Eston, Saskatchewan. It was here that Glenn's mother died in 1922. Shortly after the Taylor family established their domicilefin Drumbo, Ontario. The next year Glenn com- menced his education at Drumbo Public School and passed his entrance in 1930. After attending Drumbo Continuation School, he came in 1934 to the Paris High School Halls of learning. Glenn played an important part in athletics at Paris, and is now on the tennis team of Western University. Glenn excelled in English. In 1934 he won the Paris Legion Essay Contest, and also a prize for a short story. He was awarded the Helen Smith Scho- larship for proficiency in English in the June examinations of 1935. Glenn was Editor-in-chief of the P.H.S. Year Book published in December 1935. This proved to be the most successful P.H.S. Year Book up to that time. For the Fall Term of 1936 Glenn was President of the Literary Society. He was a very popular student at Paris High, and worked willingly and cheerfully at anything assigned to him. At present Glenn is in his first year of Eng- lish at Western, and we all know he is going to make good. We're all wishing you the best of luck Glenn. ,751 y, I M. L. G. B.

I believe I'll rest there for awhile, said the stork to himself on the sixteenth day of August. But lo when he resumed his journey, he had left his shopping bag, and thus the yard of Mr. A. S. Taylor was cluttered C?J with a white parcel. When Mr. and Mrs. Taylor undid the wrappings of this peculiar looking bundle, they found a smiling little black-haired girl whom they christened Mabel Eleanor. Mabel troubled her parents for six yearsg then thinking that Edication would tame her down, they sent her off to Keg Lane School. Did Edication take the pep out of her? Decided- ly NO! She topped the class and passed her entrance with honours. At High School her funny bone, giggle and sunny disposition gained for her many friends. In studies she was hard to match, and this year cap- tured half the scholarship awarded for French. Mabel excelled also in Athletics. She was our Athletic representative in forms III, IV and V successively, and was a swell guard on the school Basketball team. This year she is fitting herself for the business world at Day's Business College. Best of Luck Mabel in the career which you have chosen! V. M.

PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 19 7a1ediotory Mr. Butcher, Teachers, Fellow Graduates, Friends: It is with great pleasure that I address you to-night as Valedictorian of the 1937 Graduating Class. What would we graduates do without our beloved Commencement ex- ercises in Paris High School? They are the 'Beacon' towards which we strove, when in 1932 about eighty very new sailors embarked on the great ship 'Knowledge' guided by the experienced captain-Mr. Butcher, and his efficient mates-the staff. To-night from that great lamp, which has kept alight for us burning upon honour, loyalty, love and co-operation, will come the sparks for rekindling friendships. And after to-night when each gradu- ate set sail, captain of his own bark upon the great sea of Life, we trust that those students whom we leave behind will never let the lighthouse lamp grow dim! As soon as I entered the gymnasium sweet memories came back to me. Memories of Literary meetings, P. T. periods, basketball games and At- homes. Pleasant memories always live, and I am sure that the good times spent in P. H. S. will not soon be forgotten by this graduating class. It is hard to express in words our feelings on leaving school. At ex- amination times I know that everyone of us has said to himself, I'1l be glad when I am through school. Is it not true that far away fields are the greenest? In the past months we have learned that high school days are carefree days and it is with regret that we say that for us they are gone, never to return. Our years here did more than offer us knowledge. The foundation was well and truly laid during the years we spent in Public School but the real structure that was to be ourselves began to take shape when we entered this building. High school offers wonderful opportunities to develop a per- sonality. Day by day we learned to overcome greater difficulties, and just as a wall is built of bricks, character is built of days. But best of all, we were able to meet new friends and continue with old friends. Sincere, warm-hearted friendships helped us more than any other influence and as we sail still farther on we shall always remember that new friendships are silver, old friendships are gold. ' Paris High School is truly a school of which its pupils and graduates may be proud, and l know of no other reason for this than the excellence of its staff-principal and teachers alike, and the kindly interest and co-op- eration given by the Board of Education. Our teachers are always ready to give us their best either in or out of class periods. Thank you, Mr. Butcher. Thank you teachers, for your helpful direction and the interest which you have taken in our welfare. Now, after turning the pages of yesteryear, we come to the pages of to- day. You who are pupils here this year will one day pass beyond these doors, and it is my hope that the memory of the time spent within these walls will be as happy and as pleasant as mine. On behalf of the 1937 Graduating Class it is an honour and a pleasure 20 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK for me to pass the torch on to you, and wish you, most sincerely, every success and happiness. Dear fellow graduates let us ever keep before us this poem, written by Longfellow- LIFE Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime, And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time:- Footprints, that perhaps another, Sailing o'er Life's solemn main, A forlorn and shipwrecked brother, Seeing, shall take heart again. Let us, then, be up and doing, With a heart for any fate, Still achieving, still pursuing, Learn to labor and to wait. VERNA M.

PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 21 Prophecy for Form V 1937 While going to school yesterday, I reached the corner just in time to see a big silver zepplin stop at the edge of the road. Startling red letters on it said: SPECIAL CENT-A-YEAR EXCURSION INTO THE FUTURE- THE OPPORTUNITY OF A LIFE-TIME. As I jumped on board, a Hash of white light blinded me and a voice that sounded somewhat familiar said, Well lassie, how far do you want to go? Emptying my purse, I found that my net proceeds were 200, so, figuring that 20c would take me 20 years into the future, I said, As far as 1957! Though I still saw no one, I heard the Voice giving strange orders that sounded like a night-mare Chemistry formula- 3 2 4Fifth Form of 19373 x Q20cD divided by Julius Ceasor plus H SO 2 4 The zeppelin rose, and it seemed that almost immediately we reached a park vaguely like the Lions Club playground in Paris. But, instead of benches, there were easy chairs, and instead of a wading pool, a long sandy beach with waves lapping the shore. There the zeppelin landed, and the Voice shouted: Everybody out! Change here for 1958. As I stepped out -the door, a small card was thrust into my hand, which said, Go next to Snoop and Snoop, the Deadly Detectives. Looking about, I saw James Elson over in the corner of the park, mounted on a huge box marked SOAP , He was addressing a large crowd of Knock 'Em Down Strikers-among them the Georges QGarner and Lee?-who looked fero- ciously at me as I hurried past. Soon I saw the sign Snoop and Snoop, the Deadly Detectives over an office door and entered. There I found Ruby Watts, who had realized her life-long ambition and had become a detective. While busy with a couple of clients tthey were Teresa Murphy and Ethel Sinclair, anxious to have tracked down the brute who had stolen their Inviso-Eyelashes under false pretencesj she gave me a newspaper to read. On the front page was a pic- ture of Grace Dennis and Louise Sovereign in nurses' uniforms, receiving something from a smiling official. The subnote explained that they were being given the special award for the nurse who had the most soothing ef- fect on the jaded eyes of her patients over a four-year period. They had tied for the honour. An ad. on page two praised in Howery phrases the merits of the finest appetite-teasers in the world, Luscious Tummy Temptersi' Elizabeth Maus, it seemed, was the now wealthy creator of its wonderful formula. A note added that the world-famous singer and leading soprano of Universal Opera, Rita Bradley, would star on the radio program to be broadcasted the following Thursday, under the sponsorship of the makers of Tummy Temp- ters. When the clients had gone, Ruby came over to me. As was natural to one in her profession, she had followed the fortunes of all our former class- mates, and proceeded to tell me about them. She said that- David Maclaren was exploring a newly-discovered island where he be- O 22 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK lieved that grass-skirt grass had first been cultivated. He was exploring it on behalf of an old friend and class-mate, Glenn H. Taylor, who was col- lecting material for a book on the subject. At the time, it seemed, Glenn had gained great fame as a writer of thrillers, but, believing that his name belonged among those of the literary giants, he intended to raise it to that position by his proposed book- The Rise and Fall of the Grass Skirt. Barbara Telfcr, who had started the Hrst aeroplane taxi-service to the Moon, had on her last trip, been lost and had discovered a brand-new pla- net which she was calling Tennis-Land, and which she hoped to make a sort of Tennis-players' Heaven. To emphasize the Heaven impression, Barb had persuaded Grace Heaney to meet the earth-folk at the gateg Grayce's aides were to be those two red-heads, Loretta Wilson and Marg. Nash. Vera Bradley, as we had always predicted, had ended up in Hollywood. Now known as the lovely Lily Pond, she was thrilling thousands of movie- goers with her fatal methods of ensnaring the hero. Gwen Bemrose, too, had been lured by the silver screen, and her dramatic talent had won for her the coveted Tear-Jerking Trophy. Milton Brooks, known as the Demon of Wall Street, had cleaned up millions on the stock market and was still adding to his hoard. He devoted his spare time to designing Bigger and Better Bird Houses, and also had founded the annual prize for the most outstanding work in Canadian Sculp- ture. Marion Wreaks had won it the preceding year with her striking con- ception, in marble, of The Turning of the Worm, while Catherine Mit- chell had been the runner-up with a life-like presentation of The Snail on the Thorn. Mildred Sibbick was now a perfume-sniffer in Dorothy Watts' perfume salon. People were coming from all over the world to have these two ex- perts create a new perfume especially for them, for Marge Gillies and Betty Larin, who had joined the ranks of the bridal rich , they had concocted two distinctive perfumes-Glamor-O-Smellio and Hotcha-Patootsie. Don Simmons, who had risen to fame with his song hit, Strolling Through the Cemetery, was still writing successful popular songs, in be- tween broadcasting as a top-notch pianist. Speed Lee, Don's featured vo- calist, had astonished the whole civilized world by his ultra-modern 1957 interpretation of the old-fashioned Swing, Joyce Priest had become so famous as a dress-designer that the fashion centre of the world had changed from Paris, France, to Paris, Ontario. It had been Joyce who had decided the great question of the style of ladies' gas-masks during the Second World War, basing her decision on the inside style-information provided by Jean Perry. Ethel Henderson had opened a kindergarten school and been very suc- cessful for he ran it on the principle that the pupil is always right -and how could such a school fail? Walter Miller, the schoo1's financial backer, took a fatherly interest in all the pupils and proved it by presenting an an- nual prize to the worst all-round student. Jack Wilkin and Keith Brown had made good in the automobile and aeroplane industry. Their newest model was a combination aeroplane and automobile which did not require gasoline as fuel, but ran on potato peel- PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 23 ings. In one of these machines Felix Miller and Lyn Bosworth had colla- borated and won the Interplanetary Aero-Auto Championship in the 1958 Speed Games-one fed it potato peelingsg the other steered. Jack Brown had become a very prominent doctor and had astounded the medical profession by finding a cure for Spring Fever. Its potency had been successfully demonstrated upon several sufferers from that malady- Norm Lindsay, Hazel Lowe, and Leslie Cohn. Ruth Hickson, Mabel Taylor, and Verna Pottruif had opened a Cosme- tic Shop. Ruth, who had been so fond of Chemistry experiments at school, had one day discovered the formula for the famous Snowflake Cream- guaranteed to melt away wrinkles. Verna and Ruth treated their wrinkled customers, and Mabel handled the finances. The famous pianist, Jean Mar- tin, played soothing music to the nervousppeople who were having their wrinkles melted away. One of their most frequent customers was Jim Mur- ray who came daily to have his wrinkles smoothed. On learning that their shop was next door, I decided to pay them a visit. I took leave of Ruby, found the place, and rang the bell. It rang! and rang! and rang! .... and wakened me up just in time to hear the teacher say: Class, stand and pass out! MARY E. JEFFERY. To our King and Queen Our King is one whose name will ever liveg For, though he led a happy, quiet life, And Home has ever been his throne 'till now, His manly heart has 'countered bitter strife. He lived the life of ordinary men He tasted life's unpleasant toils and woe. He played the game as any man would play. Or lost or won but smiled upon his foe. Our Queen is one we honour and revere A happy family was her foremost care But now she must give up that precious crown For one, not loftier, but so much more rare. These are our King and Queen.

AUDREY BROOKS. 24 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Coronation Celebration in Paris On May 12, 1937, there took place, in London, England, the most stir- ring and colourful drama witnessed in recent years. It was the coronation of George VI and Queen Elizabeth. In honour of this great event, a meet- ing of the Paris High School Literary Society was held on May 11. The Honorary President, Doctor Munroe, reviewed in detail the ceremony of the coronation, and related several very interesting stories concern- ceremony of the coronation, and related several lnteresting stories concern- ing the Crown, the Sceptre, and other regalia. Mayor Allan Scott presented Coronation Medals to the school, and President Vera Bradley accepted them on behalf of the students. The poetess, Audrey Brooks read her Corona- tion poem, and Mary Jeffery, the prophetess, read the prophecy of the 1937 graduating class. The meeting closed with God Save the King. The medals were distributed to the students as they left the meeting. Under the able direction of Miss McKenzie and Miss Rae a float was decorated to represent the school in the Coronation Day Parade. Needless to say, the P.H.S. float was awarded one of the prizes. ' Coronation Day was ideal in the morning and evening, but in the after- noon, a good deal of rain fell. The parade, part of the municipal celebra- tion arranged in Paris, was very successful. Leading it was the Paris Band, and following in order were the Police Department, the Mayor and Council, the Paris Branch of the Canadian Legion, the Women's Auxiliary of the Le- gion, the Boy Scouts, the Girl Guides, the Fire Department, floats, decorated bicycles, and cars. The parade route was from the corner of Market and Capron streets to the Municipal Park, and was such that everyone in town had a chance to view it. At the park, a brief religious service was held. It began with the hymn O God Our Help in Ages Past. The exhortation was given by Reverend Captain H. F. Cocks, M.C.g the prayer by Reverend L. R. Ballantyne, B.A.g the scripture by Reverend A. A. Barnes, and the address by Reverend Cap- tain H. F. Cocks. During the course of the service, several choruses were sung by the children of the Paris public schools, led by Mr. George A. Smale, and accompanied by the band. The service closed with the National Anthem. The Mayor then presented the school children with Coronation Medals. The 'judges announced the winners of prizes for various entries. For decorated Boats, the first prize went to the coach and guard, the entry of the Lions Club, the second to the L.O.B.A. patriotic Hoatg the third to the Cana- dian Legion patriotic floatg and the fourth, of course, to the P.H.S. Indus- try and Learning float. Prizes were also awarded for marching, decorated bicycles and comic entries. At this point in the programme, Mayor Allan Scott made a very appro- priate address, which ended the morning service. Since the weather was clear in the evening, a great crowd assembled at the Municipal Park to see the fireworks. The Boy Scouts marched to the park, carrying torches with which they set the huge pyre afiame. The enor- mous bonfire threw a great light over the park, showing in its ever-chang- ing brightness, the eager, upturned faces of the crowd. When the fire began to die, the Boy Scouts started off the display of fireworks. Then for half an hour, the sky was filled with myriads of coloured lights which brought gasps of delight from the watchers. And thus ended the great day!

'QL' - ' O N O Literar ' Society The Literary Society of P.H.S. is the students' own. A nominating com- mittee composed of one member from each form draw the slate and after a week's electioneering the students vote by ballot to choose the executive. These with the advice of the principal, who tactfully keeps himself as much as possible in the background, direct the activities of the Literary. Elections are held in September and January. Meetings attended by the whole school are held every two weeks, the programmes being presented by a different form each time. The forms riv- al each other in their efforts to be entertaining, a condition which adds much to the success of the meetings. Music, plays, readings, etc., make up the programmes. Often the presentations are supposed to be humorous and sometimes are funny. The first Literary meeting is always Initiation when all newcomers, be they first or fifth formers or even members of the teaching staff, must play a piece, sing a song, or tell a story. No programme is more appreciat- ed. The Quill, the students' journal, is read by the Editor-in-chief at each meeting. An energetic and resourceful reporter for each form gathers news and presents it with a scintilating brilliancy of wit, and students who receive their ambition by receiving personal mention are often quite staggered by the result. The Literary Society sponsors all social activities which assures the suc- cess of the Field Day Dance, Commencement, Junior Night and the Senior Prommenade. BARBARA E. SUMMERBY. 26 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK School At Ho me The annual At Home was held last March, on Friday the thirteenth. As usual, it opened with the Surname Contest. To get partners for this, the girls lined up in their basement and the boys in theirs, then each filed out to meet his partner. In this contest Kathleen Butcher and Don Simmons succeeded in guessing correctly the largest number of names. Next, all joined in the game f'Musical Elbows, which is somewhat simi- lar to Musical Chairs. Each time the music stopped Milton Brooks, as master-of-ceremonies, drew two names out of a box. Those whose names were called then had to drop out of the game. This was continued until all had dropped out. The next feature of the evening was Bingo in which everyone par- ticipated. This was very much enjoyed, especially by those who were lucky enough to win a prize. Refreshments were then served by the members of fifth form, thereby bringing to a close a very enjoyable evening. GLADYS SCHUYLER. The Senior Prom The '37 Senior Prom was certainly not the most brilliant dance ever held in P,H.S., but for those present, it was a success in the important sense of the word. The gym, decorated in red and black, our traditional school colours, looked very striking indeed. The expressions of the dancers weav- ing about in the appropriately subdued light, showed their approval of Howard Traver's excellent music. In the two novelty dances, the lucky couples were Audrey and Milton Brooks, and Rita Bradley and Elmer Yean- dle. Punch, much appreciated by the thirsty, was served by Jim Cameron and Bill Campbell. Dancing lasted till midnight, when, at the first stroke of the clock, our local Cinderellas, in the company of their own Prince Charmings, tripped merrily home. Due to many social affairs in surrounding communities, the Senior Prom was, alas, a financial failure. Many of the illustrious members of our school must have been swayed by that old proverb, Distant fields look greener. Consequently, a rather small crowd supported the dance. But our teachers, always dependable in emergencies, very kindly made up the deficit. And so, there was nothing to worry about. Colloquially A good time was had by all! Mary Mogan. PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 27 Junior Ni ght On Thursday, February 25, 1937, the annual Junior Night was held at Paris High School and the Auditorium was filled to capacity. The program was a varied and entertaining one and I honestly believe that I am not ex- aggerating when I say that this year's Junior Night was the best ever. Pre- ceding the opening, our school pianist, Walter Williams, performed at the piano. After the singing of O Canada, Mr. Butcher, who was the chairman for the evening, welcomed those present and expressed the wish that they would enjoy the program which was to follow. The entertainment began with a chorus from Lower School, under the direction of Mr. Smale, and accompanied by Walter Williams. They sang three excellent songs, Skye Boat Song, with Dorothy McCrow as soloist, The Volga Boat Song, and Canada, Dear Land of Minef' A short debate followed by the pupils from Second Form, the subject being Resolved that travel in Canada and the United States is more desir- able to the Canadian than is travel in Europe. The chairman was Herbert Monteith, and eleven members from the audience acted as judges. The de- baters, chosen by members of the Second Form, were Jack Muir and David Moss, who upheld the affirmative side, and Frances Inksater and Agnes Maus, who supported the negative side. The decision was awarded in fa- vour of the affirmative side, Eight members of Forms IA and IB presented a dainty performance of a Danish Minuet. The dancers, trained by Miss Rae, were: Doris Gillies, Audrey Sibbick, Joyce Emerson, Myra Simmons, Marie Crump, Verna Priest, Mable Brooks and Lydia Dix. The pianist was Eileen Lee. A whistling solo followed by Polly Ashby. Walter Williams then gave an interpretation of the composition Minuet. Three pupils of the Com. Class gave an interesting typing demonstration showing the value of music to improve the rhythm and speed of the typists. The demonstration was given by Gwen Bemrose, Teresa Murphy and Ethel Sinclair, and conducted by Miss Taber. They typed 30, 40 and 50 words a minute very easily and smoothly. Mouth organ duets by Charles Matthias and Leonard Garner were enthusiastically received by the younger mem- bers of the audience. Form IA sang a quaint French song, accompanied by Eileen Lee. One of the highlights of the evening's program were the offerings of the Senior Commercial Instrumental quartette, comprised of Ethel Sinclair, Loretta Willson, Lloyd Richardson and Harold Rickwood. Form II and Junior Commercial presented a dance performed by Edith Dodds, Agnes Maus, Frances Inksater, Kathleen McDonald, Gladys Ste- phens. Doris Young, Joyce Graham and Betty Wickson. The pianist was Barbara Telfer. Miss Rae, director of the dances, was presented with a lovely bouquet of roses. The remaining items were Dancing Song by IA, a recitation by George Billings, English folk-song by IBQ accordian solo by Harold Rick- 28 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK woodg and a folk-song and a three-part chorus In Venice by Form II. The concluding number introduced something entirely different into the program, when the Junior Boys gave a demonstration of tumbling. The athletes were trained by Mr. Bernhardt. The Junior Night Program closed with the National Anthem. Following the program, the visitors inspected the students' work which was on display in the different rooms. Teresa Murphy. Remembrance Day Service On Wednesday afternoon, November 10, the students of the Paris High School met at a Remembrance Day Service to pay tribute to those valiant men who gave their lives that there might be peace on earth and good-will among men. O Canada was sung at the opening of the service. Mr. Butcher then called upon the Reverend Mr. Cocks who announced the Winners of the Paris Legion Essay Contest. O God Our Help in Ages Past, that hymn which has brought comfort to all generations, was sung. The Reverend 1VIr. Barnes, who had graciously consented to come and speak to us at this ser- vice, spoke of the significance of Remembrance Day, the idealism of the men who fought, and the difficulties which the League of Nations has to combat. He above all challenged youth to play the man, and become conversant with the trend of life. Following the close of his speech we stood while the Honour Roll of our school was read, and bowed in silent tribute to our dead and all they died to win. The service was closed with God Save the King! Jane Fair. The Paris High School Choir We are indebted to the splendid leadership of Mr. G. A. Smale, of Brantford, for last year's successful school choir. Under his capable in- struction the vocal talent of P.H.S. was organized in October and continued until June examinations commenced. The choir officials were: President-Milton Brooks. Vice President-Grace Schuyler. Sec. Treas.-Verna Pottrutf. Librarian-Leslie Cohn. I Pianist-Jean Martin. At Easter, fourteen members were selected to attend the O.E.A. meet- ing in Toronto. They were Rita Bradley, Barbara Telfer, Marian Wreaks, Ethel Henderson, Barbara Summerby, Verna Pottruff, Joyce Priest, Leslie Cohn, Stuart Cowan, David Moss, Walter Williams, Russel Clarkson, Milton Brooks and Gordon Parsons. These were joined with the representatives from many of the other high schools and collegiates to make up a massed PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 29 choir of two hundred pupils under the direction of Mr. P. G. Marshall, of Simcoe. Miss Norma Papple, of Brantford, was the girls' soloist and Mr. Bruce Rogers, of Simcoe, was the boys' soloist. An orchestra of one hun- dred pieces was also in attendance, representing schools from widely scat- tered points in the province. A choir of the Toronto public school children of 195 voices together with the Secondary School Choir and orchestra was given half an hour during their concert over the radio and their perform- ance drew very favorable comment from the press. P.H.S. was extremely fortunate in having such a proportionately large number to represent ii in this choir. The night before the concert in Massey Hall a banquet and dance was given in the Oak Room at the Union Station for those who were in the Sec- ondary School Choir and the Orchestra. On May lst the High School Choir attended the Musical Festival held in the Brantford Collegiate Institute where they sang O Happy, Happy' Fair , The Hunting Song , and Drink to Me Only with Thine Eyes . A concert was given in St. Paul's United Church on May 17th by the High School Choir, with the guest artist, Mr. Arthur Moses, and his accom- panist, Miss Alice Monture. Towards the end of the programme the presi- dent, Milton Brooks, presented Mr. Smale with a music case to show the choir's appreciation for his training. After the programme a reception for those who took part and for the High School Staff was held in the basement The choir was reorganized this year with the following officers: President-Eoin Currie. Vice Pres.-Donna Potruff. Sec. Treas.-Walter Wintemberg. Librarian-Gladys Schuyler. Pianist-Mary Mogan. Mr. Barrett has succeeded Mr. Smale as instructor, the latter having been appointed supervisor of music in all Brantford's Public Schools. Barbara E. Summerby. Stars Above Pines Last night I watched the stars above the pines, They wheeled in slow majestic ways: To some they tell the future and are signs, To me they are the kings of other days. They shine like lights, far up above the treesg They are cold, and brilliant, wise, yet kind, They change not whether there be calm or breeze, Or hail or rain or sun or wind. Yet oft their light is hid by storm and gale, Their light is dimmed by riot of the world, They do their part, we cannot wail To them because the tempest 'round us curled. They are cold, and high, austere and bright, As I watch the stars above the pines. ' They still are like the kings of old to-night, And still they are the omens and the signs. Audrey Brooks. 30 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK A Tragedy of the Orient The British military camp lay just outside the city gates in that hot, damp section of India, the Punjab. It was early morning, but already the air was becoming very warm. The bazaar was welcoming its first custo- mers. At the gates of the city, an argument was going on between the sen- tinel at the gate and a tommy who had the day off. But I warn you, you do not know India. I advise you to wait for one of your pals. You know the natives are always looking for trouble, and they find it often, too. I don't quite see your point, and I don't see any danger, replied the young soldier, 'tthere are soldiers here and soldiers there and soldiers all over the country and yet you tell me I am taking my life in my hands going down there alone. You are only telling me how little you know about this place. British- ers have little power in those crooked streets. If you wait for a pal or two to show you the works-well maybe you will understand what I mean if you don't. With a disgusted Humph the young tommy strode proudly through the gates and down the street out of sight. The sentinel wagged his head slowly from side to side. He's too determined, too obstinate. He's going to look for trouble and he's going to Hnd it. That sentinel knew India. The boy marched along arrogantly, inwardly fuming. An untouchable stepped before him, bowed low, then spit con- temptuously at the ground a few inches from the tommy's feet. He paid no attention. He was too busy with his thoughts. Another untouchable re- peated the performance. The boy did notice and resented the act. A third time, and a fourth the scene was presented. By this time he saw how low he was being classed-below an untouchable. He drew up to attention be- fore the fourth offender and in plain English demanded what he meant. In a moment a leering grinning crowd of untouchables gathered. He was hem- med in-he was trapped. There was no escape. They closed in. With a wild burst of repentance he saw what the sentinel meant-he had not known India. The crowd gathered closer still-he could feel their skinny fingers grasp for him. He held himself erect for a moment more, then made a wild plunge-his last. The natives seized their opportunity to find trouble. That day the sentinel wore a troubled expression, and at night reported quietly, One more missing. Audrey Brooks. PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 31 be Quill While glancing through an old edition of the Year Book, not long ago, I chanced on an article relating the history of The Quill. It 'was quite a revelation to me, for during my years at P. H. S. the origin of The Quill had been a deep mystery to me. Supposing that there are others who are interested, I have tried to give a brief account of The Quill and its his- tory. When the P. H. S. Literary Society was organized in the fall of 1925, a school paper was also suggested. To Albert Smith fell the honour of becom- ing its first editor. It was his successor, Robert Wishart, who gave the pap- er its name The Quill and its distinctive motto Calamus est major glad- io. CThe pen is mightier than the sword.J In 1926 it was decided that the staff of The Quill be appointed for only half the school year, from September to December, and from Decem- ber until June. The paper, written by the staff, was to be read by the edi- tor-in-chief at the meetings of the Literary Society. From 1926 to 1937 The Quill has flourished, written by one brilliant staff after another. Old ideas and suggestions have been adopted from for- mer editors and many new ones have advanced. The Quill is still a source of interest and amusement at the Literary Meetings. The Spotli ht on the Quill Fashions: October lst. fEdition1.D The girls are all a-dither over the new school uniforms that are about to make their appearance. The idea of a uniform has had an enthusiastic reception from the lower forms, and many of the upper formers intend to adopt it. Boys' Sports: fEdition 2.3 October 22nd, The basketball season was officially opened last week when the new Junior team tangled wilh the Seniors. The result was Juniors 23, Seniors 15.

MB Boys' Athletics Last year P. H. S. entered only a Junior Basketball team in the W. O. S. S. A., and was grouped with Simcoe and Kitchener. The first game with Simcoe and both games with Kitchener were disastrous to our team, but playing at home against Simcoe we won decisively. The Junior schedule finished, teams were chosen in the schools. After a long series, Glenn Tay- lor's team emerged victorious. The outlook for this season is much brighter, since there are possibilities for both a Junior and a Senior team. Hockey was revived last winter when games were played to determine the winner of the Robinson Cup. Only two games were played. The first was won by Lower School over Middle Schoolg the second was a particular- ly good game when Lower School surprised everybody as well as themsel- ves, by- defeating the powerful Upper School team. P. H. S. once again took a large number of athletics to the Waterloo College Invitation Meet in Kitchener. We placed second, thus losing the George Hainsworth Cup, which we had won the previous season. We con- gratulate Meaford, the new champions. We hope to send a strong team to recapture the Cup next May. The greatest Ontario Annual Boys' Track Meet was held in London, Ont., on May 23rd. P.H.S. sent eight contestants. Herb. Monteith won the Junior Pole-Vault with a leap of over nine feet. This feat won him a three weeks' vacation at Lake Couchiching Camp. Arden Miller Won the individ- ual Juvenile Championship with a First in the High Jump and a Third in the Broad Jump. Gordon Parsons placed fourth in the Intermediate Quarter Mile. We extend congratulations to our Pole-Vault-Champion, Herb Mon- teith. Herb won the All Ontario Pole-Vault Championship at Lake Cou- chiching last summer. Softball once again was played by Members of P. H. S. This Fall, games were played between the Forms and between the All School team and an outside team from Paris. The weather for the Annual Field Day on September 29th, was excel- lent. The three champions were Junior, Jack Brefittg Intermediate, Greg Cocksg Senior, William Burt. Sylvanus Apps was present and helped by judging the track events and pole vault contests. BILL BURT. Y 'Y Athletic Champions-Page 94.

In by-gone days sports were considered too strenuous for girls, but girls of this generation are more athletically inclined and look forward to taking part in the var- ious sports which may interest them during their years at school. It has been shown that' physical training not only produces strong, healthy bodies, but also clean, healthy minds. Girls now see the benefits derived from phy- sical culture as well as the fun and excitement. Our school has always held a respectful position with regard to sports and in the future we may be sure that it will do its best to improve its record. Various sports attract our attention in accordance with the seasons. In the Spring and Fall, baseball and track and field events occupy the main portion of our schedule. Our annual Field Day was, as usual, a great suc- cess. Congratulations are extended to the champions-Frances Inksater, Mary McKeen and Margaret Luker. Owing to the delay in opening the Simcoe High School, the Simcoe-Burford-Paris field meet was not held. In the winter basketball as an indoor sport has no competition, even though the girls did attempt a hockey game, which turned out to be much more amusing to the spectators than to the players. The success of our activities is due mostly to our most efficient teacher, Miss Rae. And so, as this edition of the Year Book has been issued, we are now looking forward to still more fun and pleasure in the near future. RITA GRANTON. The Girls' Hockey Game Last winter, near the close of the Hockey season, the girls of Paris High School decided to have a game of hockey among themselves. Lower School was to play Middle and Upper School. When the great day finally came, the girls hurried to the arena, some with hockey sticks, some without them. Since the goalies were not ready on time, the game was held up for a few minutes. Soon the goalies made their appearance on the ice and Glen Taylor, manager for Middle and Upper School, sent out his line-up, and Les Cohn, manager for Lower School, sent 'out his line-up. The referee, Mr. Bernhardt, dropped the puck, the girls got into action, and the game was on. The girls, unaccustomed to playing hockey, were not able to handle their sticks very well. Some were having a hard time to keep on their feet. The girls, not knowing the game, continued to play after the bell had been rung because of an off-side. Each time the bell rang, there was a change in the line-up. The puck rolled from one end to the other and back and forth. The girls were getting a great thrill out of this game, while some were also get- ting a great many spills. Middle and Upper School started off well by scoring two goals, but Lower School was not to be beaten. Three times they put the puck past the goalie and her assistants, who had squatted on the ice in front of the net. The hour soon went, and the game was over. Some of the girls felt pretty weak at the ankles and knees, while others felt fine. The girls liked the game very much, and have decided to play more hocky in the near fu- ture. BETTE KELLEY. PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 37 Baseball In place of the Paris-Burford-Simcoe meet a Baseball tournament was held on the 20th of October. First and second forms united to play against Junior Commercial. Such enthusiasm was displayed by the first formers that the game ended with Jr. Commercial being defeated by the score of 20 to 13. Since this game came to end after four o'clock in a slight rain, the second game of third and Senior Commercial against Fourth and Fifth was postponed until the following Monday. Fourth and Fifth in this game com- plained of the cold because they could not find enough to occupy themsel- ves. Fourth and Fifth were the winners with the score of 25 to 22, which shows that it was a very close game. The First and Second Forms were apparently so enthused at winning that they challenged the winners of Upper School to a game which to tell the truth, was hardly what you might call a game. The Upper School show- ed themselves much superior to Lower School, which was easily seen by the score, 28 to 6. With these games the baseball season was closed. Rita Granton.

The desperate cry rang out through the stilled room, its tone portraying the intense feeling of the woman who was leaning across the table with hand outstretched. Her pointed finger was directed at the other who crouched at the far end of the table, the knife clutched, dagger-like, in his dirty hand. He glanced menacingly at her, but now she was in complete control of the dangerous situation. His eyes lost their glaze. Aw shucks, Ma! I can't eat with a fork! PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 39 Views of a Professional Hockey Player Perhaps the most difficult thing for a young hockey player to realize, when he is beginning a professional hockey career, is the fact that he is really playing side by side, or against, those players whom he has looked upon with awe and admiration for many years. The rookie, as all new players are called, usually meets these players at the training camp, where every- one assembles two or three weeks before the season opens to be put through a period of conditioning, to prepare them for the strenuous winter cam- paign that is to come. This training period is so rigorous that it is almost a necessity for the individual player either to keep in good condition during the summer, or to prepare himself some weeks beforehand, by some means or other, in order to be in fair shape before the training starts. The training routine itself usually consists of an hour of physical culture and two hours of golf in the morning, and hockey practice in the afternoon. Due to the great number of players at the camp, the hockey is always divided into two shifts each of which lasts an hour and a half. Anyone who reports to camp a great deal overweight, or in poor condition runs the risk of having to do double duty, which means that he has to work on both shifts. The result is that almost everyone reports in pretty good shape and thus lessens the amount of work that is necessary for him to do. The time spent at Camp is perhaps the most nerve-wracking that a young player will ever experience. It is a period of testing, and on his showing during those two weeks depends his fate for the coming winter. Will he be successful in making the Toronto Maple Leafs, or will he be sent to their farm team at Syracuse for further experience and seasoning? The training period closes with several exhibition games. These games form very important tests for young players who hope to make the grade. After they are finished, the team is chosen. and for the fortunate the first hurdle has been passed and they enter the National League where the supreme test awaits them. The opening night comes, the new players report to the Arena, get dressed and skate out on the ice. The referee blows his whistle and the game begins. The rookie, more nervous perhaps than ever before, sees the big question mark before his eyes. Will he make good or will he fail? He has the puck, no more time now for questions that only time and his own ability can tell. The hockey itself usually begins in the first week of November, and lasts well into March. The teams are divided into two sections. There is the Canadian section made up of the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Montreal Maroons, the Montreal Canadiens and the New York Americans. The American section has the New York Rangers, the Detroit Red Wings, the Chicago Black Hawks and the Boston Bruins. According to schedule each team plays forty-eight games. The first three teams in each group enter the play offs, the winning team becoming the holder of the Stanley Cup, which is emblematic of the World's Professional Hockey Championship. To a young player first entering professional hockey, the prospect of playing in the large cities of Canada and the United States is very alluring. If he has not been fortunate enough to have visited these cities before, the great amount of travelling that is necessary becomes very enjoyable and is looked forward to with a great deal of pleasure. However, as the places 40 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK are seen more often, these long fast trips become tedious and the travelling is not enjoyed to the same extent as formerly. Perhaps one reason for this is the fact that the team very rarely stays in one place for any length of time, usually arriving in the morning and leaving immediately after the game. Of course this does not give us very much time for sight seeing, be- cause we must spend most of our spare time resting up for the game that evening. Most of our travelling is done at night, which saves time and is also easi- er on the players. At iirst it is somewhat difficult trying to sleep on the train. This is especially so after a game when every move seems to be gO- ing through your mind again and again, and you are making plans for the next time. However, the players have a private car and everything is as comfortable as it could possibly be. Usually by the end of the season these overnight train rides are taken as a matter of course, and do not bother yOu a great deal. Now you might ask, just what do the players do when they arrive in a city to play a game? Most of them have breakfast as soon as they arrive at the hotel, and then go to their rooms to rest. After lunch they go to a theatre, perhaps, and report back to the hotel at five o'c1ock for dinner. For dinner we might have steak, baked potatoes, toast and ice cream or custard. The meal before the game is the only one that the players eat together, and this only happens when we are away from home. The team travels to the Arena, to the station and to and from the hotel in taxis. The players are divided into groups of four with one chap res- ponsible for them, who pays for the taxis and sees that they arrive on time and so forth. At the hotel there are two players to a room, and these room- mates are the same the year around, as are the four who go together in the taxis. This arrangement does away with a great deal of confusion and makes certain that no one will be left behind. While in Toronto, daily practices are held with the exception of Sun- day and the day of a game. They are for the most part quite strenuous, especially if the preceding game has been lost, and they form a very im- portant part of our conditioning activities. As the season progresses con- ditioning plays a less important part, and more stress is put on the perfect- ing of plays and team work. Not a great deal of importance is put on the players diet for the simple reason that each person is striving to play as well as possible, and usually knows what is good for him and what is not. He knows that it is in his best interest to stay in good condition, and in the great majority of cases will be as careful as possible not to eat or drink anything that is liable to do him harm and impair his playing ability. The season now is officially over, the rookie is no longer a rookie, but a seasoned performer. True, he still has a great deal to learn, but his year's experience should be of invaluable aid to him during the coming season If he has been successful he puts his skates away with the profound hope that next year will also be a good one for him and he will continue with his fine work. If he hasn't been as successful as he would have wished, he looks forward to the next season with the hope that the experience gained from a year of professional hockey will aid him in making a success of the game that he has elected to play.

Dear Students of P.H.S.: As I write these few lines I am just beginning to realize what it means to break away from one's school and one's associations, and to start out in a new phase of life. We left Paris on the night of September 30th on the eight o'clock boat train. Travelling through a long weary night we arrived in Montreal at eight o'clock the following morning, Friday, October lst. We took a bus through the narrow side streets and quickly reached the Cunard dock where the Letitia and Ausonia were berthed, both to sail at ten a.m. To me the boat seemed awfully small. However, the Letitia is quite a fair-sized boat, and once aboard I soon realized that it would be quite easy 'to lose oneself. ' Shortly after the hour of ten two tiny energetic tugs fussed alongside, and we left our berth amid one shower of rain and another of coloured streamers. Friday continued dull and wet, but the ensuing days were gloriously clear and fairly mild for the time of year. By lunch time on Saturday everyone was getting acquainted and on Saturday evening the first dance was held. Everyone was up by eight o'clock in the morning, and from then on until -lunch time there was the regular routine of deck games. After lunch we either played card games or lotto, or went and watched the horse rac- ing. After dinner there was always a dance or community sing or a picture show. The days aboard passed all too quickly and on Saturday, Oct. 9th, at 12.00 noon we disembarked. First of all our baggage was placed on the tender Skirmisher in the Mersey River, and then we followed, taking twenty minutes to make the trip from the Letitia to the quay and thence to the customs' office. We had spent six days on the open sea after leaving the St. Lawrence River. The river shores were beautiful with the myriad of Autumn tints, and on leaving the land behind many of us had felt rather homesick, but this was soon replaced by seasickness. For my part I was only sick one day, but that was one day too many. It did not take me long to discern numerous differences in English life and customs as compared with ours in Canada. Railway services are much more speedy and efficient than ours in Ca- 52 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK nada. For instance, it took well under two hours to complete the journey from Liverpool to Nuneaton, a distance of over one hundred miles. And that train is not considered fast. British Railways are only commencing to streamline their expresses, but in the last year or two they have made tre- mendous advances. Another thing that struck me particularly was the courtesy of every- one I came in contact with. They seemed so eager to say Thank you, Sir. Even if you collide with anyone he will say I'm sorry, sir, no matter if it is quite evident you are to blame. I'm afraid that in the Land of the Maple you would be gruffly told to look out where you were going. I really believe that Canada is far superior as regards to the planning of towns and cities. Of course towns in England are much earlier in origin, but even now not much has been done to improve the narrow streets that may have been sufficient in 1066 but certainly not now. Quite often houses are built alike along a whole street so that if you come home late at night you have to take your chance on striking the right house. Electricity is used in these modern homes, but in the older sections gas is still used for lighting, heating and cooking. ' There is much more formality in dress in this country. It is not con- sidered proper for a boy or man to go out without wearing a suit coat no matter how warm the weather. Then, too, school girls and boys must wear either uniform or cap. The educational system is different also. For instance physics are taught all through the secondary school, whereas we take the subject only in Form III. Mathematics farithmetic, geometry, algebra, trigonometryl are also taught each year, while we take algebra and geometry on alternate years, and trigonometry is not taken until Form V. So you in Canada may con- sider yourself lucky. As far as I can ascertain, the cost of living is cheaper here than in Ca- nada. Wages are also higher than those at home. One does not see or hear much of war preparations. Occasionally mili- tary planes ily over and posters are to be seen advocating joining the mo- dern army. Sports are radically different from those in Canada. There are not nearly so many golf courses here, but tennis has attained tremendous popu- larity. Ice hockey is just gaining favour, but Held hockey is the main sport for school along with football and cricket. Lacrosse and basketball are girls' games here, boys would not think of playing them. I suppose I have rather exceeded my space but there are so many in- teresting things to write about that I could fill page after page. But I really should close. Wishing everyone at Paris High School suc- cess in the coming seasons, I remain Yours sincerely, GORDON T. PARSONS.

Oh I did-well anyway, after my operation I went to see my cousin who lives on a farm. He's a very distant cousin, at least I hope so. When I meet him on the street he is no relation to me at all be- cause, well, he has that somewhat seedy, uncouth look. Well I went to see this distant cousin, thinking I would rest up a bit before I had to start into the stress and strain of society again. Rest? My land and heavens, they don't know what rest is on a farm. They sleep at the oddest hours. Why, they go to bed before eight o'clock and they actually get up at four a.m.! Oh dear! I seldom used to get to bed before four and I got up long after eight. The first thing that happened, Mirandy, she's my cousin's wife, asked me if I could get a few potatoes. Of course I didn't want to appear entire- ly helpless, so I said I would be glad to. She gave me a monstrous pail. I was certainly hoping she didn't expect me to fill it, because I couldn't carry half that many, especially after my operation. Then she told me to get a fork at the barn. The potato patch was behind the barn. I couldn't under- stand why they kept their forks at the barn and I couldn't understand why I should need one. And I set out to the patch empty handed except for that enormous pail. I came to some beautiful bushes, about two feet high. I was sure they were potato trees so I pulled one up. I knew from reading a book that potatoes grew under the ground, but I still can't see why. After pull- ing several I felt a decided Weakness in my backg so deciding the potato crop had been a failure I returned to the house. I almost forgot to mention the smell at the barn. I felt much sicker than before my operation! I did tell you about my operation did I? Oh, I did-well when I got to the house PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 63 I told Mirandy sadly that there were no potatoes, and, in horror stricken tones, Mirandy told me I had destroyed little I-Iiram's school fair tomatoes. I had no sooner recovered from that when little Matilda came dashing in and wanted me to come out to see the calf. Now I had really never seen a calf before and I had a faint idea it was a big animal used instead of hor- ses long, long ago. I went outside and there was a baby cow-the dearest friendly little creature. But I couldn't see any calf until with a shock I discovered that a baby cow is a calf. As I said before, it was the dearest thing, so I thought I would be brave and pet it a little but the beast wanted to bite my hand. I'm sure it was vicious because it kept reaching for my hand with its ears laid back. Then to my greatest consternation cousin Hank came along driving something he called a pig before him--a most hideous brute. Oh my, I was scared. I clung to the nearest tree for support until he got by. I was still frantically searching for smelling salts when I felt someone tug at my skirt. I looked around and I am sure my mouth dropped open a foot when I saw that wicked vicious calf chewing content- edly at my skirt-my best tweed skirt. I yanked it, terror-stricken and ran for the house in record-smashing time. The horrible creature took after me blatting or bellowing or howling, or whatever a calf does. It put its head away down and kicked up its heels. To my everlasting shame there stood cousin Hank laughing his head off. He told me Calves ain't got no sharp teeth er nuthin'. I was too puffed out to speak. It took me until supper to find myself again. Dear me, I was so ex- hausted I could have given anything for a good soft bed to fall into. I for- got to tell you that they sleep on straw mattresses on that farm. Imagine! Oh dear me, it was terrible. Every move I made, made more straw poke into me. Well to get back to supper-cousin Hank thought he would tease me so he said Hey Susan, send the cow down this way. I shuddered all over and replied, You bring a cow in here and I pass out. I was again dumbfounded when I learned that by cow he meant the milk pitcher. By this time I was feeling worse than I did just after my operation, so I decided to get back home as soon as possible. I thought it would be only polite to stay the night, so I went to my room with the perfectly honourable intention of going to bed and to sleep. No sooner had I settled myself, des- pite the hard stiff sharp straw, than I heard a most terrific' rumpus just below my window. People were yelling and there were terrible squeals. I put my head out the window to see what was the matter and the answer I got was, Never mind Susan. Everything is O.K. now. A mare got out That's all. A Mayor? Do they keep mayors locked up? If so, what for? I didn't find out until the next morning, when I rose after a sleepless night, that this mayor was not a mayor -but a mare It seems that a 'mare is a horse. Well, I soon packed up and left. The stress and strain of society was a rest after the perfect bliss and calm of farm life. How do farmers stand it? Of course, it was worse for me since I had just had an operation- by the way, did I tell you about my operation? A MATHEMATICIAN WITH AN IMAGINATION.

The following is the Phophecy composed by a num- ber of pupils. Jack Wilkins deserves special credit.J I am on the good ship Empress of the Future. The day is stormy. The ship is rolling, and so is my stomach. The storm gets worse. I rush to the rail. Here I become so sick that I fall into a heavy stupor, and wake up twenty years in the future. Through my powerful television-radio I can see all over the world. Turning the dial here and there I see: A large grave-yard. The old grave-digger is David Broomfield, who had to retire as a horse doctor because of an unsuccessful operation on Beth Pond's darling cat. David was accused of having killed the cat for revenge and jealousy. When Beth turned down his proposals again and again, and lavished her affections on a cat, David nearly lost his mind. At the present moment he is talking to Walter Cracknell, Mayor of Canning. There, he said, is the grave. Poor Erle! he's heartbroken. To think that when Joyce passed away he should have been in the Ling Sing Ho Penetentiary in China for robbing a poor widow! I-low well I remember seeing him in days gone by walking the floor with a bawling infant, while Joyce was attending the picture show. A surge of the ship brings me to my senses. I stagger to my cabin and fall into the berth. I see stars, and can dimly make out Douglas Newell visiting the man in the moon. He is offering the old man a huge chunk of cheese. The old fellow is asking him curiously who poured the water on the driver's seat of his superrocket plane. I change the wave length. A dark jungle road stretches out before me. Suddenly Betty Kelley, Margaret Kelley and Barbara Telfer hobble hur- riedly into view. Close behind come huge savages carrying a missionary soup-kettle. They reach out for the brave women. Just then static blurs the picture. I turn the dial. Louise Simmons is standing before a kettle. The cook is sprinkling over the water, salt and large amounts of pepper. The Cannibals dance around with hungry looks. Suddenly Louise dashes away and disappears among the trees. The next scene portrays a circus. Lloyd Richardson is eating razor- blades and electric-light bulbs. Watching Lloyd closely is the Reverend Austin Parnall and his charming wife, Verna Pottrulf. The Reverend Aus- tin is doing his best to look disgustedg but his eyes betray keen excitement. partly because he is eager to go into a nearby tent to watch the famous hulu-hulu dancers, Margaret Richardson and Margaret Nash, and thereby get materials for a sermon against the evils of hulu-dancing. Deacon John Richardson and his wife Mabel are supporting the Reverend Austin. Mabel has broadened out, but John has become very thin from dragging his wife's 200 pounds around on his arm. I turn the dial to 27456758 kilos. Suddenly I see Jack Wilkin looping the loop at Camp Borden. He has just returned from the Chinese-Japanese war, where he distinguished himself by dropping a big bomb on Marshall '66 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK War-Lord Chang Whang Whoo Mitchell. Captain Wilkin takes no credit for his feat. He says it was like aiming at a ten acre field, or a duck pond. But de does regret having wiped out the husband of Marshalless Lang Rang Marie CJefferyD, who laments very much the disappearance of her husband. Captain Wilkin often feels that to make things right he ought to marry the widow. ' I turn the dials next to Drumbo. There I peer into the dental parlours of Jack Martin. He is fitting a set of false-teeth into the mouth of Bar- bara Summerby. He goes about his work so tenderly that I feel safe in pre- dicting that he will soon fit a ring on her finger. A burst of music comes over the air. I listen. The announcer says, You are listening to the violin of Donald MacDonald, the second Rubinoff of the Air. The band strikes up. My dog begins to howl as though his tail were in knots. - The program changes. The winner of the international hog-calling con- test is modestly speaking over the air. This, folks, he thunders, is Al- bert Smith. When I call softly, the hogs can hear me twenty miles. I never let my voice out to its full extent for fear of causing a cyclone. The an- nouncer later stated that when Albert murmured to his sweetheart, I love you the blast of his voice deafened her for life. Again the program changes. The announcer is advertising a famous book-The Art of Getting A Husband-by the Misses Rita Bradley, Marian Wreaks and Isobel Inksater. None of the girls are married yetg but after years of trying they know the ins and outs of the game. . I change the scene. Before my eyes there comes a room. Around a table playing bridge are seated Ruth Hickson, Walter Miller, Catharine Mit- chell and John Coates. Judging by the ugly looks that fly around when a bad play was made, I came to the conclusion that I am looking at two hap- pily married couples. The home is evidently that of Mr. Coats, for a pro- fusion of dandelions is everywhere. Next I turn to Hollywood. Before me is a studio. Surrounded by a bevy of beautiful and adoring girls, and wearing a monocle is the Director, Sir John Alderman, who was recently knighted for proving beyond all doubt that Santa Claus in his youth was a boy-scout. John is directing a scene in which the old favourites, Thomas Reading, Verna Gedney and Ella Grieves are playing. None of these actors has changed much, for they have all had their faces lifted more than once. As usual Tom is sadly puzzled. He can't decide which of the charming girls he should marry. At one moment he thinks it will be Verna because of her motherly waysg but when Ella turns the old orbs on his brow, he changes his mind. Suddenly, as the plot pro- gresses, Thomas falls into a deep mud-puddle. Ella runs screaming for the fire-department, but Verna dives in and pulls out Tom. Tom marries Ella because Verna turned him down when the water washed off his wig. As I continue to sleepily turn the dial, I come to a baseball game at a picnic. The stout married women are playing. Helen Miller, now Mrs. Cracknell, is up to bat. The ball leaves the pitcher's hand. It spins along. A crack like the report of a gun rings out. The ball seems to be coming right for me. I duckg but to no avail. With a resounding whack it strikes my head-and I find myself sprawling on the cabin-floor. PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 67 Around the World with the Movies I Met Him In Paris. We had One Night of Love in which I affect- ed a Conquest , We went to Spain on our honeymoon, but on The Road Back we got caught in a revolution and Uunder Cover of Night we had to take The Last Train from Madrid. We changed to an aeroplane and after l3 Hours by Air we arrived in Bonny Scotland , and at The Final Hour dashed up the gangplank to take the Showboat for America. I heard The Singing Marine, and went below to see a man in evening clothes and a Top Hat sneaking out of our stateroom. Our cabin was in disorder and soon I learned The Awful Truth that The Masqueradern had stolen my diamond necklace. We set the G-Men on the trail, then stopped worrying as they were Ready, Willing, and Able. We went on deck, and as I was sitting tucked Under the Red Robe the police brought up Public Enemy No. 1 with my necklace. We docked at New York, and after spending A Night at the Opera and A Day at the Races we follow- ed the old saying Go West Young Man and flew to San Francisco, where we stayed at a Hollywood Hotel. The next day we took the China Clipper to Hawaii, where we saw a Waikiki Wedding , and then contin- ued to China where we took the Shanghai Express. We heard that All's Quiet on the Western Front and returned, to continue our honeymoon in Spain. MARCO POLO What Other People Think of Me I will try to let you know what other people think of me, though I don't know what you will think of me for writing this. I might as well start at the first. When I was born I was very young, which was probably due to the fact that I wasn't very old. I wasn't very big, but my feet touch- ed the floor. However, I passed that stage, and in my first year of school I was one day accused of playing truant to play football, but I soon showed the teacher how wrong she was by producing a string of fish. However, she did not seem to see my point. To make matters worse I knocked the mar- ble clock off the sideboard. The teacher asked me if it had stopped, and I replied No, it has gone right through to the basement. One cold day I took a bus, and upon entering its warm interior, I had to keep sniffing. A woman sitting near me asked if I had a handkerchief. She seemed shocked when I replied, Yes, but I am not in the habit of lend- ing it to strangers. A little later on in my life I was thought very kind when one rainy day, noticing some clothes on a line, I knocked at the door meaning to tell the owners. However, there was no one home, so I collected the clothes and put them in the dog kennel to keep dry. I fear the dog had the same idea, and when the clothes were found they were in rags from the dog's teeth and claws. I think their opinion of me changed. By this time I had reached the grade in school where they insisted that we memorize The Village Blacksmith. I have an idea that I became a 68 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK little mixed with some other poems, for I struggled through with this: It was the Village Blacksmith That sailed the wintry sea, And the skipper had taken his daughter Under the chestnut tree. Her hair was thick and black and long, Her cheek was like the snow Week in, week out, from morn 'till night You could hear her bellows blow. And children coming home from school With measured beat and slow, Like a sexton ringing the village bell When the stormy winds do blow. I couldn't have gone any further even if the teacher had stopped me. One day we had the misfortune of having a fire in our cellar. We nev- er had a fire in our house before, and I didn't know what to do, so I sent a post-card telling the fire-department I would keep it going until they ar- rived. When they did come a week later, what the chief told me can't be printed here. I could guess what a friend thought when on asking what to do for in- somnia, I told him to sleep it off, I think for a change, that if you have read this composition you must have insomnia, and you had better sleep them both off. DIMPLES 8: CURLY , The Aeneid of Aenias, the Cat I sing of arms and of a man Who tied a cat to an old tin can, The cat and the can tossed about and how, And then the cat said: Me-ee-ow. The top came ol? ye old tin can And socked in the eye that awful mang Then 'twas the man who said Me-ow And Aeneas said Oh boy, and how. The man, in anger, chased the cat Right onto the back of a vampire bat. The bat, astonished, took to Bight And lit cn the ocean at dead of night. Out of the sea then Neptune rose, Awakened from a peaceful doze. He cursed that bird and its passengers too And in awful fright away they flew. He reached for them with his toasting-forkg They fell on the sea like a floating cork. PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 69 Gnarl, Snarl, Snarl said Neptune then, As he twirled his beard and counted ten. You're in my power now you know, I'l1 smash you on your starboard bow, I'1l mow you down you so and so's, I'll twist your neck around your toes. I'll bust your beak with an awful squeak, I'll pull your tail till my strength doth fail, My ocean will froth around your ears, While the years roll on for years and years. sr Neptune then kicked up his heels And frolicked around like a couple of eelsg The fish they danced the Virginia reel And smacked their lips at the thought of a eal. m But the fisn were thwarted in their plan, For the bat remembered the old tin can. He flew away at crack of dawn And left his riders to trail along Back he came with the can in his clutch, And it grew to a fish-net at his touch. He caught tne fish and threw them far- They fell in Neptune's royal car. N- tried to rise, but slipped, fell down, And the poor old fellow broke his crown. He found it to be not gold, but ting It gashed his throat and sank right in. That was the end of Neptune, you see. Now to return to the other three. Aeneas, who was the brains of the gang, Burst into song, and all three sang. Back from the scene of their thrills came they- Enough thrills for them for many a day- They parted firm-sworn friends for life And each took unto himself a wife. -All this seen and recorded by the Flea in Neptune's Beard fthe one that could swim.l Who is After the Thin Mann? Gladys Phipps. Where is Betty Cameron going for Michaelmas? I wouldn't Dare tell. Whose theme song is Walking on Ayr? June Clancy. When Betty Cameron was a very little girl, she was asked to pray for warm weather to relieve her grandmother's rheumatism. Betty knelt down and said, Oh Lord, please make it hot for Grandma.

The programme commenced with the singing of O Canada . Mr. But- cher, as chairman, then gave a brief review of the year's work. In many ways, the past year had been unique. The results on the Departmental ex- aminations were better than in recent years. The graduating class of forty- one was the largest in the history of the school-thirty-four were to receive Matriculation graduation diplomas, six were to receive commercial diplo- mas, and one was to receive both diplomas. The inauguration of night classes in commercial work was to be particularly noted. In conclusion, Mr. Butcher drew attention to the encouraging sign of better times in the fact that graduates, on leaving school now, were finding employment. Dr. A. S. Dunton, Chairman of the Management Committee, was called upon to present the medals to the athletic champions. Wishing the winners continued success, whether as students or graduates, he told them of the belief of the Board of Education in the integral part that sports and physi- cal training played in the educational system. Such activities trained for life, giving alertness of body and keeness of mind. Medals and awards did not mean that you were successful in beating someone. They meant that you were able to maintain a standard of efficiency that enabled you to come first. Congratulating the athletes for their achievements, Dr. Dunton then presented the medals to the following: Frances Inksater fsenior cham- pionl, Mary McKeen fintermediatej, Margaret Luker fjuniorb, William Burt fseniorj, Greg Cocks fintermediatel, Jack Breffitt fjuniorl. Two choruses entitled May Day Dance and Twilight were enjoyed by the audience. Those taking part were Evelyn Bee, Audrey Brooks, Eliza- beth Guthrie, Barbara Summerby, Grace Schuyler, Gladys Schuyler, Arlene Tom, Elsie Veit, Stuart Cowan, Donald Currie, Eoin Currie, Walter Wintem- berg. Mary Mogan was pianist. Dr. Jeffery, in presenting the diplomas, spoke of his pleasure in ex- tending congratulations to the very large graduating class. They had at- tained this second stage in their education by completing their secondary school work. Yet they might have a feeling of sadness that they had not worked harder, that they were not considerate enough of their teachers, or that they were parting with friends. This was the past though. Now one was thinking of the future. Dr. Jeffery stressed the fact that their education is not finished. An education is acquired by very hard work. It is not the facts, but the dis- ciplining of the mind that forms character. Education trains one to reach judgments. Character, knowledge and judgment added to hard work mean power. They give one force to carry forward to a life time of crowning PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 73 success: they make one considerate of others and helpful to the weak, they make one clean in one's habits. One is more certain of success and better able to retain one's self respect if one remembers Know thy Creator in the days of thy youth. Wishing the graduates every success in long, happy and useful lives, Dr. Jeffery presented the diplomas. The chorus sang two more numbers, Happy Fair and O, No John. The hearty applause of the audience showed their appreciation of the splen- did results obtained by the training of the voices of these students by their director, Mr. Barrett. The chairman called upon the donors of the Honour Matriculation Scholarships to award their special prizes. Gladys Schuyler was presented her scholarship in English by Miss Helen Smith. Miss Smith, on congratu- lating Gladys, spoke of the wide range of the subject of English, and the wonderful avenue to knowledge it opened up. She hoped that much profit and joy might be obtained from this study. The King George V Memorial Scholarship in Modern History donated by the I.O.D.E., and presented by Mrs. Wickson, was received by Vera Bradley. Mr. Charles H. Baird on pre- senting the Mathematics Scholarship donated by himself, congratulated the winner, Milton Brooks, on being so successful in such a hard subject. On behalf of Dr. G. W. Bell, the donor, Mr. Butcher awarded the Latin Scholar- ship to Rita Bradley. The French award, donated by Mr. William Young, was presented to two graduates, Mabel Taylor and Ruby Watts, by Dr. A. S. Dunton on behalf of Mr. Young. Verna Pottruff, the student obtaining the highest standing in the Upper School examinations, delivered the Valedictorian's address. Comparing commencement exercises to a beacon that guided one safely until the light- 74 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK house was reached, she urged those students who remained, to never let the lighthouse light grow dim. Thanking the teachers and Board of Education for the help that they had given, she hoped that the students would have as pleasant and happy memories as the graduating class had. It was a plea- sure and honour for the graduates to pass the torch on to them. Verna's well expressed remarks and charming manner were very pleasing and com- mendable. f Dressed in colorful costumes, the girls of Fifth Form took us back in imagination to the days of Old England, as they danced a country folk dance. The maidens and youths of the dance were Grace Schuyler and Elizabeth Guthrie, Audrey Brooks and Rita Granton, Elsie Veit and Gladys Schuyler, Ruby Watts and Louise Simmons. Evelyn Bee was the pianist, and Miss Rae the director of this delightful dance. Jean Martin gave a piano solo which won continued applause. The au- dience was favored with an encore. Before introducing the play, The Dear Departed, Mr. Butcher ex- pressed his thanks to all those who had given of their time and energy in furthering the success of the events of the eveningg to Miss Rae who had trained the girls for the dances, to Mr. Bernhardt who had instructed the senior boys in their gymnastic work on the parallel bars for the Monday evening entertainment, and to Mr. Smith, who, in addition to taking the pictures for the Year Book, and reading the copy for it, had directed the play about to be presented. The scene of this one act play, The Dear Departed, is the sitting room of a small house in an English towng the time, one Saturday afternoon. The play opens with Mrs. Slater fHazel Pearsonj and Henry Slater, her husband fCharles Barnesb, both in mourning, awaiting the arrival of Mrs. Slater's sister, Mrs. Jordan fMary Moganj, and her husband, Ben Jordan CWilliam Griffinb, to whom they had sent the news that Mrs. Slater's father had died that day. CHe had come home intoxicated and had sunk into a corna.J On meeting, the sisters express great grief, but we soon find out that their interest is .centred-in the distributioniof their father's belongings. Jea- lousy and acquisitiveness appear. Has Grandfather's insurance premium been paid? Mrs. Slater's little girl CEdythe Lewisj is sent to her grandfa- ther's room to find his keys.. Returning quickly, the terrified child declares grandfather has got up. The mourners are thrown into a state of conster- nation by the sudden appearance of grandfather fWilliam Campbellj. The latter, realizinglhow seltishsliis daughters are, declares his intention of changing his will, leaving his possessions to the one who makes a home for him. As the sisters veie with each other in trying to win his favour, he an- nounces that there are three things he must do on Monday. In the first place he must go to the lawyer's to have his will changed. In the second place he must go to the insurance office to pay his insurance. In the third place he must go to the church to get married! This astounding statement PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 75 ends any further arguments. After the play the graduates congregated in Second Form where a re- ception was held in their honour by the staff of the school. Mrs. Butcher and Miss Cowan poured coffee while the members of Fifth Form served re- freshments. Later the graduates returned to the gymnasium to enjoy a dance. The Commencement Concert was given again on Monday night, with two added numbers-a lively and vivid Jester's Dance performed by the girls, under Miss Rae's direction, and skilful gymnastics on parallel bars, by the boys trained by Mr Bernhardt. Both these events received great ap- plause. FLORENCE E. RODMAN. -i,,L.L Mr. Butcher: How much time did you spend on your Algebra? Jim Hastings: Six Hours. Mr. Butcher: Eh! I mean-pardon?

Paris High School Alumni Association Each year a class of graduates leaves Paris High School never to return again as students. For years, nothing has been done to keep these graduates in touch with the friends of their school days. For quite some time our Principal, Mr. Butcher, has felt that some or- ganization was needed to keep these graduates together. So, on November 20, 1936, he called a meeting of the 1936 graduates after the Commencement Exercises. The idea of an Alumni Asociation was enthusiastically received and a temporary committee was appointed with Douglas Moss as chairman. This committee sent out a questionnaire to all the graduates from 1924-1936 -over two hundred in all-asking them if they were in favour of an Alum- ni Association, with an annual Reunion at the school. - Some hundred replies were received-all favorable. So, a meeting at the High School on December 28 was arranged. About sixty-five or seven- ty graduates were present. Each was given a copy of the proposed Consti- tution which was discussed point by point and several changes made. A nominating committee composed of Jean Reid, Edgar Nash, Murray Lee, Isabel Smith and Tom Briggs was appointed and brought in a list of nominations. Vote was by secret ballot and the following officers were elected: President, Terry Flahitfg First Vice-President, Sylvanus Apps, Sec- ond Vice-President, Allan Wellsg Secretary, Phyllis Telferg Treasurer, Doug- las Moss. The nominating committee also suggested about fifteen names from which the executive later chose the following committees: Business Committee-Kenneth Hatch, Marie Taylor. Social Committee-Marguerite Bringloe, Eleanor Flahiff, Berniece Wil- son, William McCrow, William Rutherford. During the year, the executive has sent out several circular letters to the graduates whose addresses were available. The executive has been working under difficulties, one of which is lack of finances, but they are planning a Dance and Social Evening at Christmas and are counting on all the graduates to support them and establish the Alumni Association on a solid foundation so that it may grow from year to year.

Seip, Mgr. Sinners Repent The night is ideal for a murder. Outside pitch darkness and heavy fogs envelop the town. In the house at the farthest end of the street are two new occupants. Out of the darkness in this house comes the sound, pat, pat, pat . . , , foot-steps sounding in the room below the one in which the occupants are sleeping. One girl, wakening up, and hearing the soft noise, nudges her friend and asks her advice. At the sound she promptly hides her head under the quilts. She tries to encourage her friend to go and find out what the noise is. While she is thinking it over, the unknown begins to ascend the stairs. The girl had wild thoughts. She had read of people being murdered while they slept. At last the Unknown had reached the top and very slowly but surely comes toward the room. Nobody breathes and the Unknown comes right over to the side of the bed. There is a deathlike silence, during which the one girl thinks of what she should not have done, for example, the time she took a handkerchief from a certain boy. Suddenly her thoughts and the dreadful silence are broken by a whining Meow. C. R.8cE. J.
