ITHE' ECH. ES SICKNESS We have been unfortunate in having two valued members of the staff absent on account of sickness, namely. Miss Murphy, Head of the English Department in Vocational School, and Miss Faint, Head of the Modern Language Department in the Academic School. We have. however, been fortunate in getting substitute teachers who are doing good work. Miss Dorothy Henry. B.A.. a graduate of the school and of Queen's University, has been taking Miss lNIurphy's work and will continue to do so until the latter returns. lVIrs. Hill, who attended the Peterborough Collegiate Institute as Dorothy Bamforth and who subsequently took a brilliant standing at Queen'sxUniversity, took the Senior French and German during the month of January. On February the first Miss ltlargaret White. B..-X.. an honour graduate and specialist in French and German of Toronto University, entered upon her duties as teacher of Senior French and German during the temporary absence of lWIiss Faint. DEDICATION VVc are pleased to learn that t.his year's Echoes is to be dedicated to lNIr. I.. J. Pettit, BA., Head of the Department of History. lNIr. Pettit joined the staff in 1908 at the time when I undertook the duties of principal. I have always found him a loyal colleague and one who has rendered invaluable assistance in the varied extra- curricular activities of the school. I can bear testimony to thelact that upon him the honour has not been undeservedly bestowed. H. R. H. Kenner. ' 1 I -'wi'-. .l , .' ' W j, . X llzfwiggf' 'i A . .

' 'FCA' 4 ' - The following news items may be of interest to recent graduates of the school: ATTEN DA N CE HE attendance during the present school year has bee11 about the same as it was last year. The highest enrolment was in the month of September when 1097 pupils were i11 attendance. FOOTBALL Although we won no football championships. yet the season was in many respects a satisfactory one. .X large number of boys regularly turned out for practice and more teachers than required volunteered their services as coaches for the various teams. The Senior team was good. but lacked the necessary weight. Lindsay with a heavier line and fast half-backs won the district championship without a single loss and their team is to he congratulated on its season's record. Our Junior team was also put out of the running hy the Juniors from Scugogville. For some reason or other there are some hoys in the school who have the neeessary weight hut who refrain from donning the moleskins. VVe are thus seriously handicapped in having to play against heavier teams. The boys who pass up football lose a good deal of valuable training for thc battle of life. FIELD DAY This year lhere has been a marked revival of interest. in track and field events, and the most successful Field Day of Sports in the history of the school was held the Qnd Friday in October, Entries for the various events were up in the hundreds. Those responsible for organizing the sports are to be congratulated on the success of 'heir efforts. ltlr. F-haw of the Ovaltine Company is donating to the school two per- petual challenge cups. These will be much appreciated. COMMENCEMENT The annual t'ommencement was quite a success. The Hey. Dr. Barr was the guest speaker and he gave some valuable advice to members of the graduating classes. The principes alumni were Jack Couper and Gladys Carvolth. The social hour in the Qymnasium was thoroughly enjoyed. while the dance of the graduating classes at night was the best in the history of the school. THE AT HOME The Students' Council are to he congratulated on the marked success of the annual At Home held during the Christmas holidays. The gymnasium was beautifully decorated. the orchestra gave splendid satis- faction, refreshments were served in an orderly manner. the gowns were charming and the deportment of the revellers was examplary. Our At Home is coming to be considered as the dance of the holiday season. -H-
