So highly did the Aztecs esteem chocolate that they valued the cocoa bean above gold. Introduced by Hernando Cortez to Spain in 1526, by the end of the 17th century chocolate was the aristocratic beverage of Europe. It was then that chocolate houses were first established. The best cocoa beans are grown in the equatorial zones in the West Indies, West Ah-ica, Ceylon and other countries. Many are the processes of refinement that have been discovered since chocolate was first introduced. Because Neilson's employ the most modern machinery and use only the finest cocoa beans, Neilson's chocolate is so smooth, sb rich, so delightfulin flavour and matchless perfection that it is indeed the best chocolate made.. zsazszf:f,1e:':xga1:S::,afz'ffeeewafee t o an ff g SM A , f JEIQSWXF' - fl M EY J' THE sEs'r MILK CHOCOLATE MADE 5 H5371 4 , v f ,,, . fl , , .sg ' 'i'r. f, ' J' - . :J - ., 1 7- , , rr , . ef- e , 'L4,-i',. fF5 fA ' A fi-Q '1iffi1z.fviff+Q4.,f Eg ......4.-Masai ,f..wa.'hn'k..aqa.e.-......

Attendance for four years, and in most cases tive, is required tO complete the studies in this school. VOCATIONAL SCHOOL In the Commercial Department of the Vocational School pupils are prepared for commercial pursuits. It required four years to obtain a Commercial Graduation Diploma. This may be obtained either through the Secretarial Course for Girls Or the Accountancy Course for Boys. In addition there is a Special One Year Course in purely commercial subjects for those who have successfully completed at least three years of a regular High School course or for those who are graduates of either the Household Arts or Industrial Arts Departments. In the Industrial Arts Department of the Vocational School courses are Offered in Draugh- ting, Machine Shop Practice, Woodworking, Auto Mechanics and Electricity. In this depart- ment boys are trained for industrial pursuits. The length of the course is four years. In the Household Arts Department of the Vocational School girls are taught Sewing, Dress- making, Millinery, Home Nursing, Home Management, Cooking and Applied Art. The length Of the course is four years. I A In each of the three departments of the Vocational School a good general education is given along with the special training in the purely vocational subjects. NIGHT CLASSES I I Vocational Night Classes will open in October, 1938, and will continue until March, 1939. During the past year instruction was given in Cooking, Dressmaking, Typewriting, Stenog- raphy, Bookkeeping, Woodworking, Commercial Art, Machine Shop Practice, Industrial Electricity, Blue Print Readig, Machine Drawing, Auto Mechanics, Macine Design, Armature Winding, Electro-Plating, Tool Design, Mathematics, and Chemistry for Nurses.

Not only is your Headmaster, Dr. Kenner, an educationist of more than provincial reputation for character and scholarship, but the stall of teachers makes a worthy contribution to the enviable reputation of the School. With equipment unsurpassed in every way, and your student body coming largely from homes of refine- ment and culture, it remains For you, my young Friends, to maintain and even enhance the splendid record ol your school. Only in this way can you do your part in the upbuilding of your City and County. And then, when your door of opportunity swings open and you enter life's battle, may John Oxenham's word ring true for you all, boys and girls alilce. You can play a straight game all through, You can fight lilce a knight, For the truth and the right, These are truly great things you can do. Yours faithfully, ALBERT MATTHEWS, April 14, 1938. Lieutenant-Governor of Ontario. Pug? Nine PgT H.R.H. KENNER, B.A., L.L.D JOTTINGS BY THE PRINCIPAI: The recent alumni may be interested in the following news items. A TTENDANCE: The enrolment this year is 1000 pupils with a staff of 39 teachers. STAFF CHANGES: Mr. E. Davies, BSC., who for nine years was director of draughting in the Vocational School, resigned in june last to accept the position of Director of Vocational Training in the Cornwall Colletiate Institute and Vocational School. The staff were sorry to see him leave as he was a most valued colleague, an excellent teacher and a cultured gentleman. We wish him and his wife and family continued success and happiness in their new home. We welcome to our staff as successor to Mr. Davies, Mr, ll'z'!Iz'anz E. -facksaiz, an alumnus of the P.C.I. Mr. jackson left school to volunteer his services in the Great War. He served in the Air Force and was shot down and taken prisoner. In 1930 he joined the staff of the Brantford Collegiate Institute and Voca- tion School and was appointed director of draughting. Last june he resigned that position to accept the position held formerly by Mr. Davies. Mr. Jacksons chief extra-curricular activity is sport. Last Fall he was coach of our Junior Football team. Miss Shirley M. Muir B.A., a graduate of Toronto University, and a specialist in English and History, has been engaged by the Board to act as substitute teacher for Miss Murphy for one year. Miss Muir is an experienced teacher and we were fortunate in securing her services. We welcome to our staff as an assistant in the Household Arts department of the Vocational School Miss Christine Copus B.A. Miss Copus is an honour graduate in Household Economics, Toronto Univer- sity, and a specialist in Household Science. PETER DEMOS: Peter Demos brought honour to himself and to his Alma Mater by winning a 5900 Scholarship at Queens University. This was a provincial wide Scholarship awarded to the pupil with the best class record in the live years' Academic course in his own School. At the annual Commencement Exercises Peter was the Valedictorian. FOOTBALL: All honour to the Senior Rugby Football Team, the interscholastic champions of the O.R.F.U. The boys played clever and clean football, took their victory modestly, and both on and off the field con- ducted themselves as gentlemen. Coach Bamforth has every reason to be proud of his boys. CIVIC BANQUET: Thanks are due and are hereby tendered to Ex-Mayor Macdonald and to the alder- men of 1937 for tendering the champions a banquet and for presenting them with serviceable souvenirs of the great victory. ESPRIT DE CORPS: Who said that the P.C.V.S. students lack school spirit? The wildly enthusiastic crowd at the final game against Runnymede Collegiate Institute gave strong proof that school spirit was never so strong in the history of the School. COMMENCEMENT: The annual Commencement Exercises held December 3rd were even more success- ful than usual. Dr. G. R. Scott was an able chairman in that he kept things moving. Ronald Dick, Peter Demos, Wilda Saunders and Haig Kelly were on the Spot. The guest speaker, Mr. Adrian Macdonald M.A. of the Normal School Staff was at his best. THE AT HOME: The annual At Home sponsored by the Students' Council was a decided success. Miss Edna Borland and her hard working committee under the supervision of Miss Amelia R. Thompson B.A. are to be congratulated on the appearance of the gymnasium. The decorations were decidely artistic and pleasing to the eye, and were the subject of much favorable comment. Stroudis orchestra from Toronto supplied the music for the event and gave general satisfaction. The dancers put the O.K. on the Big Apple and there was no lack of spirited action. The arrangements for the needs of the guests were very complete. The Students' Council are to be congratulated. Mr. Wesley Brown of the Vocational Staff set a high standard for his successors to attain. CORONA TI ON MEDAL: The school has been honoured by the presentation of a Coronation Medal to the Principal. Thedocument sent with the medal reads as follows: G.R.I. Buckingham Palace By Command of His Majesty The King the accompanying medal is forwarded to H. R. H. Kenner Esq. B.A., LL.D.

Toole Pa ge Twelire EDITORIALS Education in the There is probably no more frequent topic found in school editorial columns than that of the merits and values of education. The majority of these articles are highly idealistic in nature and usually regard education as something which has a high intrinsic value In view of the frequent attacks made upon higher education these days it is worth while for any one, and particularly for us students, who are probably not Vely often credited with any deep thought on the matter, to consider this vital problem carefully. It does not require any great deal of investigation to realize the need and justification of higher educa- tion for the young people of today. The world we are soon to enter is a world full of the most dis- tressing and acute problems. Difficult and complex questions of international relationships, social justice, capital and labour for example await us. So familiar have many of them become to us that in many cases we have ceased to search for causes and solutions, and have accepted them as ebullitions of a highly complex and chauvinistic civilization. Yet even a disinterested glance will show that their dissolution awaits only the unhampered and concerted effort of men armed with the weapons which education offers. This amazing and enigmatic difference which separates what may often seem the obvious solution from the sordid reality of the present day world with its blundering statesmanship and ap- palling lack of the finer sentiments of mankind, is something which frequently baffles and discourages the ardour of young people into silent acceptance. The question of how to get the most out of our education and how best to fit ourselves to be of some use other than mere personal existence is one which faces us all. Few generations may claim to have been brought up in a more turbulent and threaten- ing era than the present one. It is equally true, however, that if few have been called upon to face more difficult and discouraging problems, few have been offered such tremendous opportunities to make their age one which will be remembered as one of reconstruction and achievement. ' Surely any honest student of to-day should re- alize the responsibility which lies on the shoulders of himself and his fellows. Unfortunately far too many realize the fact too late or fail to grasp it at all. It should be the cherished desire of every alert and intelligent youth of to-day that he may possess some ability or talent which may enable him to par- ticipate in that great war on the black side of human existence which men from the time of Aristotle, through a series of giants such as Spinoza, Goethe, and Voltaire, to name but a few, have been waging. Not that he may aspire to the heights reached by these stars in the firmament of man's triumphs, but World of Today that he may be one of the thousands of spirits, who' guided by these Titans in every age, have striven to carry out their ideals with sincerity and unselfish- ness and spread again and again a redeeming light over the shady tale of man. It is largely upon the education of the youth of to-day that the success of tomorrow depends. Many of our present day problems are largely the result of ignorance-and its two evil children, bigotry and credulity. Ability varies in individuals, but one thing we can all do. We can at least be determined that when we leave our schools and enter the world, we will do so with minds that are open and trained to thinking for themselves. We can leave with the avowed intention of refusing to fall a prey to the children of ignorance and thus adding ourselves as inarticulate flotsam and jetsam to the burdens ac- tively intelligent men are striving to throw off. If education does this, then it is not in vain. Students! Don't waste your abilities. The world has grim need of them. Remember, the great prob- lems of to-day will not be solved by blunderers. Your brief period in school when the need of your life are still provided for you, is the time of your great opportunity and once its all-too-brief space has slipped away, it never returns. The last generation lies buried throughout the fields of France through no particular fault of its own. It is largely because of their generous effort that we still have the means of education at our dis- posal. Whether we use them or not is up to us. Is the day soon to come when the world will repeat the words of Alfred de Vigny, perhaps best left un- translated: Heureux celui qui ne survit pas a sa jeunesse mais qui emporte dans la tombe son tresor et ses illus- . ., ions. Not if the youth of to-day realizes its duty. R. Dick Fascism: A Question and Answer Probably no word is so frequently on our tongues and in our minds at the present time as the word 'Qfascismf' Almost daily, from our radios, from every newspapers, from the books and articles we read, it is flung at us, and the activities of its leaders form a large portion of the daily news. Two of the world's leading European powers have adopted it as their form of government, a third on the other side of the world is, to all practical purposes, a fascist state, a desperate war is being waged in a fourth in its interest, and a fifth is at the present time being forcefully turned into a fascist nation, Page Thirteen ,Q fi 'I . 'A--Vffnf '-i ?::'g5QU ' ' 5,1 4--1 X. .J ' X Y- 1 XJ if -' 5' .re :n1,' M., ,JI In practically every country small groups, more or less active, bearing the name, Uft1Sl'l.Sfl'H have ap- peared. The question naturally arises: Is there any pos- sibility of fascism becoming a powerful political force here in Canada and the United States? Fascist is often mistakenly regarded as something new, something peculiar to the twentieth century. The truth is that fascism is one of the oldest stories in the world's history. A small but violent minority of the people in a country, under the direction of a few leaders, seizes control of the government and maintains itself in power by the systematic destruc- tion of all who dare to oppose it. All the fundamentals of the fascist creed may be found in the Works of Machiavelli and Nietszche. An unbiased view of fascism can scarcely fail to re- volt the liberal-minded thinker. In place of the ideals of freedom for which men have fought and died through the centuries we find whole nations ready to immolate themselves and those who oppose them to the mad mania for power of a single individual. Dictators, it has been remarked, are a sort of regression to childhood. Fascist countries are cases for psycho-analysists rather than for the League of N ations. Despite the desperate veil of propaganda thrown over them, the results of fascist economy and rule in general stand as proof of the failure of fascist rule. Italy and Germany, renowned through the ages in the worlds of art and philosophy, are more artistically and intellectually sterile and barren to- day than at any time in their history Education in both countries has become mere rote and in- culcation in which the schools are primary grades for the army, bent on instilling everything-even mathcmaticsfwith a pro-fascist bias. This, as Mr. H. G. VVells has pointed out, is the one new thing, and the most invidious one, about fascism. A liberal education would be deadly to its existence. Aristotle, 2300 years ago foresaw Mussolini, the more truculent of the present fascist leaders, who has also, by the way, the distinction of being the world's leading apostate. The tyrant, Aristotle says, must needs make war to keep his subjects occupied. -words which explain Ethiopia and Austria better than whole books could do it. But to return to our original question: Is there danger of fascism in North America? In answer to this let us quote Mr. George Sheldes: The fascist more than any person living today represents the socially and economically deaf, dumb, and blind ruling class, stupid, perverse, de- termined only to remain on top and to crush all op- position. This group is well represented in North America: there are many interests here who would welcome fascism as a means to exploitation and power. What, you may ask, can be done to prevent it? There are many ways, but one applies particularly to us as, students. The fascist governments of Europe are rapidly preparing a nation of mentally- castrated youth by means of which to keep them- Page Fourteen selves in power. The first generation of them in fact will soon have reached maturity. Probably the best protection against a fascist outburst in this country is a body of alert and in- telligent citizens determined to stand each by him- self and not to be gulled and sacrificed by a vicious minority. Neglect to prepare this body is a danger to the well-being of the nation. Fascism may be considered as representative of the problems education must face and solve. It is only by taking our opportunity when it is offered that we can make use of it. Such, at least, is the belief and hope of one who still prefers to say Pros1't to Heil R. Dick Music Appreciation M usic, sister of sunrise and herald of life to be, Smiled as dawn on the spirit of man and the thrall was free, Slave of nature and serf of time, the bondman of life and death, Dumb with passionless patience that breathed but for- lorn and reluctant breath, Heard, beheld, and his soul made answer and com- inuned aloud with the sea. A. Charles Swinburne The words, written by the most purely lyrical and musical of the great English poets, express more clearly than anything we could say the great part music should play in our lives. In our schools the attitude towards music appre- ciation in the past has been curious. Considerable attention is given to developing a taste for poetry and prose, and in a lesser way, for painting. Yes, music, at once the most direct and universal artistic approach to the mind, is almost neglected. Many of our students are indifferent to music, not through lack of appreciation, but simply because they have never heard the best, and have no idea of its qualities. In the end it comes down to the question: Is our education complete without a certain familiarity with the field of great music as well as with the other branches of art? In other words, should the person who counts himself as broadly educated be as familiar with Beethoven's Fifth Symphony as he is with Macbetli. We can see no reason for the neglect of either. We should no doubt be shocked to find a graduate of our school who had not heard of Hamlet. Yet we should be little surprised to find the same person wondering whether Til Eulenspiegel was the name of a mountain or a brand of cheese. There is little doubt that Strauss' masterpiece would be readily enjoyed and understood by him - much more readily, perhaps, than some other things. We feel that, to be complete, education must make us familiar with the best of the wor1d's music. The greatest of musical masterpieces, like the best of the world's books, must become our intimate friends. Nor can we forget the words of Plato: How can he who is harmoniously constituted ever be unjust. R. D1eK Q F7 'i .T 47. A ,L Q g w ,, g I ECHOES EXECUTIVE AND EDITORIAL DEPARTMENTS Back Row: W.

Ge-1. lfaslon 1111111101113 Music in the Assembly Hall Music in the morning assembly is an important feature of our school life. It gives an opportunity to become acquainted with community songs and folk songs which may be a useful and pleasant knowledge in the future. This year there have been several innovations in the regular program of our Morning Assemblies. The most outstanding of these was, perhaps, the intro- duction of the ensemble which, with the help of Hugh Davidson as leader of the singing, took charge of the music. This amateur orchestra, made up of Merrill Smith, piano, Robert Graham, saxophone, and james Lillico, violin, has aided greatly in the presentation of the long-awaited, up-to-date popular songs which finally made their appearance this year. These songs were cleverly introduced by an octette of four girls and four boys. The octette has not, however, put in their appearance for some time, much to the disappointment of the students, who greatly enjoyed their performance. We hope that this idea has not been entirely discarded but that it will, in the future, become a regular feature of the morn- ing programme. There is, we believe, room for still more improve- ment. To begin with, the current song hits while very popular for a time, soon lose popularity. These past favourites, I 'm Shooting High or D0 You Remember, are no longer hailed with delight when they are flashed on the screen but are greeted with loud and prolonged sighs. The singing is thus af- fected and interest drags. This is a rather serious state of affairs and should be remedied. Now, we have somewhere in the lantern room a good supply of the ever-popular favourites which would form excellent material for assembly singing. There is a wide choice of these songs, some of which will no doubt already be familiar, others not so well known, can be easily learned f and in the learning, enjoyed. College and school songs might also be used more often. Some of the better known classics such as C771 tlzc Road to Jlla11d11lay or Santa 1.115111 might be sung and in this way the students would become familiar with them and would learn to appreciate them. With such a choice of songs it would be possible to mark days with a special song. We could have an Irish melody for St. Patricks Day, or a Scotch ballad for Burns' Day and so on. In order to arrange the music, supervise the secur- ing of new songs, and prevent the too frequent repetition of one song, a committee, made up of three or four students, and an adviser, might be appointed. One would be led to believe that there is available a very meagre supply of hymns. They seem to run in cycles of about two weeks' duration, only to begin all over again in a little different order! There is, we believe, a good supply of hymns which have, for some reason, been discarded. The above-mentioned committee could sort out these hymns and arrange them in such a way as to prevent such frequent repetition. They might also secure more hymns of a national or less evangelic type which would appeal more generally to the different religious sects to be found in such a large gathering. R. B. ROBINSON Page F zfteen Acknowledgements In presenting the twenty-fourth edition of The Echoes we should like to mention some of the con- siderable changes which have been effected this year. The most important of these was the re-organization of The Echoes staff last fall. This was done with two objects in view: first, to make a clearer division of the duties of each student on the staff, and second, to make the number of students associated with the printing of the year-book as large as possible. Both these results were attained by the formation of a small student executive composed of an editor-in- chief and nine department editors. It was the duty or each member of this group to choose a representa- tive staff to aid in his work. We feel it a note- worthy fact that almost ninety students had some share in the labours and benefits of producing your 1037-38 school magazine. More obvious to the reader is the change to the larger size. Adoption of this size, prevalent among the larger schools of Ontario at the present time, has been under consideration for the past two or three years but it was only after careful inquiry among the students that the measure was unanimously approved by Tlze Echoes Executive. The competition in Purple Patches was as keen as ex er. It is gratifying indeed to see such interest shown by the students of our school in the literary section, and the winners of the various prizes offered by The Echoes staff may feel justifiably proud of their success. We should like to extend our welcome and thanks to Miss Muir, a newcomer to our school, who acted as chief literary supervisor. Our thanks are due also to Miss Park and Miss McBride, who acted as judges of Purple Patches along with Miss Muir, and to Miss Montgomery, Miss Thompson, and Mr. C. S. Browne, who acted as judges for the art contest. We appreciate also the very valuable aid and advice given us by Miss McGregor, as represen- tative of the Advisory Board of teachers. The Work of the typing staff, who play an important, if some- what unnoticed part, amidst the bustle of prepara- tion for printing deserved our heartiest praise. To all others, teachers and students, who took a part in creating this year's Echoes we tender our sincerest thanks. Our Twenty-Fifth An niversary Next year will mark the twenty-fifth edition of The Echoes. In closing our remarks on this vear's magazine, an edition full of trial and experiinent, we should like to wish next year's staff the greatest success in bringing out an Anniversary Year Book to mark the completion of a quarter century of success- ful student effort.

This year's leader is Wilda Babs Saunders, and we all know 'hat her honoured predecessors loin with us in congratulating her, heartily agreeing with our choice. She is a diligent worker, excellent leader, good sport, and real pal. We illustrate this by pointing out that she has capably lilled two difficult positions-that of secret- ary of the G. A. A. and that of head of the circulation department of our magazine. She plays a fast, even game of basketball as for- ward, and has always earned a high scholastic standing.

HORACL Dr Art: Poctica. i MQCG regor Q His Master was a Woman-Hater by MARION BROWN, VA MacGregor, although born far from the land o' the heather, was as Scotch as his name. He had beet- ling, bristling eye-brows and a long sober face as black as the sins of his irresponsible puppy-hood. His black feather-duster tail waved with something of the gallant grace of a kilt. MacGregor had lived his life-two whole years-in a New York pent- house with the Master. The Master was a hand- some young man with more money than he needed, who had been trying for two years to write the Great American Novel. He was also a woman-hater, chiefly because he thought it sounded old and ex- perienced and suited his ambition. The G. A. N. was not progressing very well, the Master decided that a sojourn in the Maine woods, away from the noise and distractions of New York, would aid in its progress and benefit himself and MacGregor. He loaded himself with supplies and made his way to the cottage set back amid the trees. MacGregor remained behind to investigate the delightful sounds and smells of his new home. About half an hour later, as the Master was pre- paring a meal, he heard a perfect frenzy of excited barks coming from somewhere back of the cottage. He grinned to himself. , Treed his first squirrel, I guess he chuckled. But presently the noise drew nearer and MacGregor hurled himself on the screen-door, barking wildly at the Master to come and see! Ah! Go tell the Marines, said the Master, and began to open a can of beans. But MacGregor con- tinued to awaken indignant echoes in a perfect ecstasy of canine excitement. The Master rushed outside, deter- Accordingly, he packed a portable 'W su N ' mined to chastise the disturber of type-igriter gud ta large supply of I it it she wilgernessdbut tthe dcogfeludid canne goo s- or even an em- ' ' im an trotte , jus ou o reac , bryo novelist must eat - and 3 ' ' i along a very narrow, rocky path, motored to the family cottage in JM Q L still barking at the top of his not Maine. 1, ,fm-w H -- l inconsiderable voice.

' All .MES thing on the ground. Presently they arrived at the lake. MacGregor stood stock-still and stared. It wasn't-it couldn't be water! There wasn't that mchu water in the world! But it was water, he discovered, when he thrust his nose into it. The thing must be a huge bath-tub. How awful! With extreme reluctance he obeyed the Master's command to seat himself in the front of the canoe. He felt his reluctance justified when, as they neared an island in the middle of the bath-tub, a light breeze sprang up from nowhere and rufiied the lake into a thousand glittering wavelets which, to Mac- Gregor's alarmed mind, seemed determined to drown himself and the Master. They reached the island without mishap, however, and MacGregor bounded ashore with a relieved Hip of his tail. The Master, however, gave a grunt of mingled surprise and annoyance for, drawn up on the sandy beach of his own private island, was a bright red canoe. 'lMust be in the woods somewhere, he muttered to himself, I'll Warn 'em off when they come back. Page Twenty Wl1-what lzappevzedf' she asked in a dazed voice. It was the something that caught-and held-the Master's eye. A girl-an extremely pretty girl-lay sprawled unconscious on the path, with a nasty-looking gash on her forehead. A protruding tree-root and stone in the path mutely accounted for her condition. She had tripped on the root and struck her head on the stone. Annoyed at the intrusion on his privacy, strugg- ling somewhat half-heartedly against a desire to handle the girl's red-gold locks, the Master bent over the unconscious girl. As he did so, her eyes fluttered open and the shock almost unnerved him. Never before had he looked into eyes of such deep, dazzling, devastating blue. He had to remind him- self, rather forcefully, that he was a Woman-hater, self-dedicated to the cause of American literature, before he felt able to slip an arm under the slight shoulders and raise the red head to his knee. The girl stared at hirn in a puzzled manner. CCOntinued on Page 811 Evening by GOLDIE TULLY, Ii B COM. The red-gold sun Was sinking in the west, And the long drawn shadows, etched upon the snow, Slowly faded and gave place to limpid dusk, For the world of light is always loth to go. Softly and quietly, the waves of sooty black Roll o'er the earth till all is densely spun, And objects loom against the sky with edges dim- med, Then melt into the purple clouds as one. Storm at Guide Comp by MOIRA WHALON, IIB COM. The weather was very favourable at camp-ex- cept for one day. The blue tranquil water was churned to a black raging fury, and white caps, resembling huge dogs of whipped cream, tossed and battled with their powerful masters, the Waves. The old wooden wharf, rotted with age, creaked and groaned as the swell of the surf rushed over it. The pines, usually tall and stately, bent and waved their branches as the wind whistled through them. Our Union jack was a whirling mass of red, white and blue, as the ropes that held it twisted and turned-but trusty guide knots held. The little weather man, on an adjoining cottage whirled his arms round frantically, till finally, with a resigned air, he toppled to the ground. Two boats moored near-by, pulled and tugged at the rope that held them, and with loud splashes contributed still more to the noise about them. The entire scene was one of hustle and bustle as the mighty wind gave vent to his angered feelings. Towards nightfall, however, he repented, and the mighty roar died to a gentle moan, among whispering pines, as the moon looked down upon a scene of quiet restfulness. Hypothesis by HUGH KENNER, IIC AC. When the winter iirelight fiickers, to and fro upon the Wall Demons of the purple hazes dart about the duskv hall, ' Wild and dreadful, harsh and formless, ever shrink- ing from the light, Ever lurking in the darkness, fragments of the shadowy night, Ever dancing, slow advancing as the flickering fire dies, Ever staxting, backward darting as the fresh-fed sparkles rise. Skipping gaily through the fireplace, soft and gentle, clear and bright, Flash the merry-hearted flame-tongues, sources of primeval light, Dancing blithely o'er the hearthstone, playing briskly up the flue, Ever-changing, ever-constant, ever old and ever new, Ever shrinking and decoying all the darksome forms without, Ever flashing upward, putting these wild enemies to rout. Through the night the siege continues till the shadows flit away, 1 Restless fading and departing at the dawning of the day. Light and darkness, sun and shadow, world and water, good and ill, So the earth-bound atoms struggle, never ceasing, '1 never stil . S0 the windy, wat'ry forces wear the boulders into sand, So the mighty ocean thunders, ever wearing on the land, So the dawning thwarts the darkness and the dark- ness ends the day, So old Chaos and new Order War for Universal sway, Each impassioned force of Nature with its opposite must strive, All the Universe is conflict and the fittest shall survive. Autumn Leaves by ALAN BROWN, IV A Soft songs to sing, and loves in Spring Are happy things that linger, haunting, But loves in fall leave none at all Of bittersweet, or echoed call Of former lovers' distant taunting. The bare tree grieves not o'er lost leaves, But starkly stands content-with reason: With melting snows her beauty grows, Where old leaves lie she cares nor knows, But spreads a new array next season! Oh, autumn loves are easy loves- They come with joy, and go as brightly, For loves in fall are slim and tall, With feet to follow any call As soft as autumn leaves, and lightly! Page Twenty-one One Night by BETTY HUGHES, lll C AC. The soft dark shades of night were fast falling, and here and there, on the black velvetness of the skv, tiny diamonds began to glimmer. The moon came out from behind a cloud, and shone brilliantly on the newly fallen snow. A gentle wind sighed eerily through the apparently lifeless trees, as if it mourned for the lost beauty of the earth. Down in the valley, in the little village, the houses nestled together cozily trying to keep one another warm. Bright patches of light fell on the snow from the unshaded windows of cheerily lit rooms. Inside the little cottages all were not wealthy, but so very happy in their poverty. High on a hill, at the far end of the village, stood a lone, gaunt house. It was a house which seemed to be pleading to be loved. It wanted young laugh- ter to ring through its echoing rooms, it wanted to be loved and to love in return. Long ago it had had such blessings but now for many years it had sheltered only a frail old crippled lady and two ser- vants. Since that day, Oh! so long ago, no laughter or words of love had sounded through its heeding walls. That night that frail old lady sat in a deep arm chair in front of a huge open flre place. The years had not left their mark on her beauty. Still her abundant silver hair, which was done in shining plaits around her head, told of the golden glory it had been formerly. Her skin was still soft and X ,..- 1 fs.- ?f1 High nn a hill, al llze-far end of the village, stood u lone, gazmt house. Il seemed Io be pleading In be loved. Page Twenty-Iwo delicate and on her cheeks was a faint pink tinge, as if ever-blooming roses grew there. But it was her eyes, her ever-alert, yet listless eyes, which drew one's attention. The deep blue of those eyes reflected her whole life, like a deep blue pool in the midst of a forest reflecting the surrounding beauty. In those eyes one read of love and hate, laughter and tears, joy and sorrow! As she sat there reading pictures in the fire, old memories flooded back upon her unwilling brain. If only she could forget! This must be her punish- ment for all the happiness she had ever known. All this aching loneliness from which she had so often prayed that death would release her. Now again these floods of memories came back on the tide of time. She saw herself as in a dream, young, lovely and happy on the day before her wedding, galloping madly over the meadows with Michael, faithful, beloved Michael at her side. She saw him again, in a moment of delicious pain, with the wind rullling through his golden hair, which he combed so savage- ly to keep down the persistent curls. She saw again that fateful fence at which her horse had shied and felt again that terrible piercing pain she had felt when she had fallen to the earth with a dull thud. She again lived through the endless months of agony when strange whispers had floated to her half- hearing ears. The whisper that Michael did not want to mariy an incurable cripple. Then she knew the truth. The horrible bitter, blinding, truth that she would never walk again and that Michael had left her to face the life of an invalid alone. Again she lived through the lonely unloved years, when her only friends had been books and memories. Slowly her head had drooped lower and lower. Then suddenly with a start it was held erect again. What was that noise? Surely no one was in the room with her and yet it had sounded like a soft step. She turned her head slowly and there in the full path of the moon's light stood- Michael! she uttered hoarsely. Margaret!,' he murmured brokenly and in a bound was on his knees before her with his head in her lap. 'tCan you ever forgive me? he whispered. All those empty years I have compelled you to live through, because I was a coward, because I hadn't the heart to see you suffer! I couldn't stand it any longer, Margaret, and so I came to beg you to for- give me. I'm not too late now. My two legs can be yours and together we can mend each other's broken dreams. VVhen the servant came in to put Miss Margaret to bed, she found them thus, side by side, and tip- toed softly out, knowing at last that her mistress's dream had come true. The old house creaked with the ever-increasing wind, happy, finally that love had come within its portals. Behind the Printer's ink The Inside Story of a Headline by EDNA BGRLAND, VA The members of the budding university English Club were discussing the subject of the afternoons lecture on newspaper work. Laurie, the leader in all things intellectual, sat a little apart from the others, thoughtful, and with a bitter twist to his young mouth. Well! exclaimed Paul Hedron with raised eye' brows, Why so glum? Laurie looked up with a startg he seemed to have forgotten the others. Glum? he repeated, I-I was just thinking about a remark someone just made about headings-that there was nothing much to them, just a splash of the biggest words possible. Well, they're wrong! There's a great deal behind a news heading. He looked past the little group that turned as he spoke, past Paul who sat with his hat pushed back on his head, past red-headed Betty, the toast of the campus, past Rolley, the football halfback. He spoke as if to himself, staring into space, drawing the words from his innermost soul, each word fol- lowing the other like a tired runner whose sheer will forces him on. Unknown to the son whom he was going to meet at the station Mr. X. instantly killed last night when the car he was driving skidded and struck the train at the level-crossings. I remember seeing that, exclaimed jean of the tip-tilted nose. Well, what of it? cried Paul irritably. Lets do something! But Laurie interrupted him and Paul involuntar- ily shrank from the piercing gaze of steel-grey eyes. What of it? he cried, Do you want to know really what happened? What the story behind it involved? He sighed and leaned back, his face clouded momentarily and his eyes were haunted, un- certain and curiously wistful. 'iSixteen years ago a young woman died, leaving her husband and a three year old son. Previously the man had loved his son as a part of his beloved young wife. Now he transferred his entire affection to that little chap with all the fire and fierceness of a man deprived of the one he loved most in all the world. And it was returned by a love undivided be- tween two parents. The boy was too young to under- stand death or to realize his loss. For a week his demands were incessant but in a month he rarely mentioned his mother. The man had a great responsibility but his shoulders were broad enough for the task. He had loved his young wife too deeply to love any other and he preferred to risk being both father and mother to their son rather than abandon him to some stranger. He adored the boy and the little fellow idolized his Dad. ' CContinued on Page 851 Snow Storm by CATHARINE WHITE, n B com. ,'Tl1e old woman of the sky is pluvkiizg her while goose. How many times have I been told that, when, as a youngster, I stood at the window and watched the flakes drift down! Now I know the scientific facts about snow, but nothing in a text book des- cribes a snow storm as well as that old superstition. Of course it would have to be a very big goose, for the air is crowded with the jostling myriads of feathery particles. It gives a feeling of immensity to gaze up into the sky and see the apparently un- limited fall of the flakes. They descend slowly, gracefully, as if unwilling to reach the earthg and finally settle down to merge with their companions into a glistening blanket of snow. People say that there is no magic to-day. Did they ever stand and watch a bare and gaunt tree being turned into a fairyland of lacy tracery against a darkening sky? Or see an ugly, oppressive street take on the as- pects of a Christmas card under the softening in- fluence of a good snow storm? And when night falls, what is more comforting than the soft whisper of snow as it drifts across your window pane? To scientists, snow is just frozen water, but to me it is a magician, changing the world from an ugly and everyday place to something that is ethereal in its beauty. Reborn by oteft wesravs, v A To-day I think my soul was born again, A breath of spring, the weary winter done, And like a broken blossom after rain, I felt it growing in me with the sun. The music of fresh waters fillled the air, It winged my heart with love of life once more, Fast with the fading snow went doubt and care I stood re-armed, the shrouded year before. Page Twenty-three DOUbl6 Trouble Dc1ve's Memory Was Weak, and so was Wencly's Ankle by PAULINE STORY, V A 'Twas the Saturday morning after one of the best parties he had ever attended. Dave stretched luxuriously in hed and meditated. Somehow, he rather wished he hadn't made that date for the next Friday though, but then, what could he do? After all, he was dancing with the girl, when that fool Ted came over and asked her to go skating with him on the following Friday evening. Ted was short, cross-eyed and a bad skater besides, and Pat had turned to Dave with pleading eyes. Dave recol- lected that Pat's eyes were lovely, dark and deep-setg the thought of her staggering through an evening of skating with Ted had been too much for his chival- rous nature. He had said to the optimist, Sorry, Ted, but we've got Friday all booked up, haven't we, Pat? And there he was! Of course, there was Wendy to be considered, whom he had been escorting for several months, but she was a good sport, and any- way, shed never know. Suddenly, a horrifying thought struck him, he seized a calendar, and sure enough, there it was! He not only had a date with Pat for Friday night, he also had one with Wendy!

Came Wednesday evening and poor Dave was still in a quandary. He couldn't possibly avoid that engagement with Pat-he hardly knew her. On the other hand, he really wanted to go out with Wendy. With a bewildered expression on his face he stared at his homework and wondered what he should tell who. In the midst of his reveries burst the ring of the telephone. 'lThat you, Dave? came Wendy's familiar tones. That gentleman murmured assent, and the con- ventional inquiry about her health, while his mind with lightning rapidity considered and discarded alibis. I wonder, she said anxiously, after she'd been talking for awhile, if you'd forgive me if I didn't go out with you on Friday? Page Twenlyfour Wonder of wonders! feign disappointment 2- We-e-ll, I guess not. Was he dreaming? Best to If you must. but we're going to have 'Tm terribly sorry, visitors, she pleaded, and I don't see how I can leave the house. All right then, said our hero in his best sports- manlike manner. Shall we make it Saturday? Great! You're such a dear, Dave! Dave hung up with a sigh of relief. Everything comes to him who waits. No doubt about it. Old Bill Shakespeare knew what he was talking about- or was it Bill? Oh, Well, who cared? He danced back to his homework with his mind free from worry. The fatal evening arrived, and off they went to the Park. Pat looked lovely. Her navy ski-suit emphasized the smallness of her figure, the darkness of her eyes, the gold of her hair. She was sweet, too, very helpless and feminine, Dave felt so big and strong with her! But she couldn't ski, and while picking her up was far from unpleasant, Dave nevertheless found himself remembering Wendy's skill. At the top of the slope, Pat shivered and said she would never dare go down a hill like that! Dave again thought of Wendyis tomboy daring. She would have been off first, teasing him because he hesitated, defying him to race her to the bottom. Nothing helpless about Wendy! Finally Dave persuaded Pat that her last minute would not come if she followed him down the slope, and having warned her always to fall sideways, he set off with her close behind. He knew she was close behind because she screamed every time she hit a bump. Suddenly, out of the maze of trees to his right a swiftly moving figure swooped down across his path. It was too late to dodge, he plunged head- first into the snow and the other skier continued a short distance unmolested, then came back. Dave extracted his upper portions from the soft snow and brushed it from his eyes and hair. In the darkness he could make out three ngures, Pat and another couple. One of the others shone a fiashlight in his face, and a familiar feminine voice gasped. Dave! Not you !', It was Wendy. Our hero was speechless but Pat murmured in surprise, You two know each other? Wendy took control, as she usually did, and in- troduced herself and her companion. The latter was a tall, dark boy with an English accent. A1- though his name was Dudley he was very good-1ook- ing, and Pat was soon engaged in animated conver- sation with him. They decided to make it a four- some, and Dudley and Pat started off together.

Here and there, in 3553s, H Xl its course, it is dotted with 24, .Nil ' j -info f ' waterfalls and rapids, but else- where are calm and shallow places. Gne of the most beautiful spots, is the place where a little tributary joins the main stream and Hows harmoniously along with it. The river glides, so easily that one can scarcely see the movement of the limpid waters over the gray rocks and golden sand. Then a drop occurs in the river's course. All move- ment seems to slacken for a moment, then down the water plunges, in a desperate, foaming, volley: the spray flies high, the noise is that of thunder. A waterfall has a magnetic charm. It flows on and on, world without end, and seems to speak volumes, as your gaze penetrates its depth. From the lower valley, the view is different. The water seems to tumble in a continuous confusion, the noise is a steady, muffled rumble as of the last vestige of an echo, tossed among the mountains, the foam seems to swallow all the water that comes down, and then the river flows out between the jagged rocks, growling as if it had been hurt by the fall. Tall grass fringes the borders of the waterfall and some, growing in the stream, thread the waters and create a myriad of tiny ripples. Spray and mist keep the grass around it forever green and moist and fresh, and make it resemble a polished field of emeralds sprinkled with crystals.

He mused aloud while standing there, His words repeat-I'd hardly dare! The little fay thought all amiss, His talk was long-the gist is this: Why through their lives all mortals go, Scarce heeding all that fairies know- The tunes the wind plays through the trees, What flowers say to humming bees, Ne'er seeing all things good and fair, The beauty 'round them everywhere, But plod along their dreary ways, Missing the glory of the days? God gave them eyes to see things with, Souls to know beauty's not a myth, Grew lovely things all o'er the earth To make them glad and give them mirth.

The ships are coming closer now-larger and larger they grow, Like great sea monsters out of the deep, with their sails as white as the snow. The toils and the worries of day disappear with the evening that fades with the light, When the sun goes down behind the clouds to sleep through the silent night. I love to stand on that rocky shore, watching the waves roll by, When the roar of the wind seems to sing a song, and fades at length to a sigh, When the sky is as clear as the ocean below, with the clouds like the drifting foam, And I stand on that shore with my eyes to the west, watching the ships come home. Symphony by B. JACK, IV A, The train of lumbering freight cars, pulled by a labouring engine, Servant of trade unequalled, chanting its Benedictus i'Blessed be the God of Industry, who hath made the train and the engine! The thund'rous rumble of freight cars, the clatter of wheels on rail joints, The great, deep bass of the engine, and violins of the brake shoes Struck a metallic symphony, which, echoing and resounding Came back from the fields and river, echo'ed from the vault of heaven! The Symphony of Industry, in a quiet Autumnal landscape. Then it passed away into distance, and all was quiet in the valley. Dreams by M. WHALON, 2 B Com. I slept, and dreamt that life was beauty, I woke, and found that life was duty, Was my dream then a shadowy lie? No. In my opinion dreams are not lies. They are lovely, wispy clouds, that float about from place to place, clouding one's vision with beautiful scenes, never to be realized in true life, but always vivid in the Land of Make Believe. Dreaming is one of my favourite pastimes. Some people say, Dream- ing will get you nowhere. Everything in this world must be obtained by work. These people have never known the joys of a dreamer. They have never had the power to change summer to winter, twilight to a 'iMagic dawn. They have never travelled on Carpet to find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. They enjoy only material things. A dreamer will always be rich. His store of wealth this dreamsj will never diminish. Jungle Night by JESSIE REYNOLDS, III D Ac.

Page Twenty-six Incidents, l9I6 by BARRIE JACK, IV A It was early morning when the word was given An early April morning, such as in Annapolis, Turns cherry orchards into snowy paradise. I dared not look my comrades in the face- The thought was then too clear, that, on this Side Jordan, we'd never meet again. But over there, toward the German lines we stared, Quite still, but filled with men, we knew, Men like you and me, whose only sin was That they were German, and servants of A master who had set out to rule the world, The world, and you and me. Then it came- The clear note of a whistle over the roar of Mines set off, and toward those spouts Of red and black we rush'd, hurried stumbling Over shell-holes, craters, pits, hearing, as We tore our way through barbed wire, the clatter Of machine-guns, from seeming far away. A man fell, another: I grasped more firm My rifle, and, bewildered, hurried on. The man before me suddenly fell backward, His blood rushed, spouted over me, I flung him aside. Damn him, I thought, What right has he to die just now? I stumbled on-a roaring filled my ears, The clatter of machine-guns grew louder, Death was everywhere, death and mud- Mud, mud, mud-soil of Flanders Wet with blood and foul'd with human corpses. I stumbled, fell, and then I knew that I Was in the German trenches. A man Loomed up before me and I struck him, Pierc'd him with my bayonet, as I had been taught. He fell: Yes, he was dead. From there I fought Scarce knowing why. Men fell before me, Round me, after me, asl fought. Then someone Grasped my arm. Steady, old man, It's over now. Yes, it was over, Done, there in the mud of Flanders. I heard a man say slowly, wonderingly, It will be Spring now in Annapolis, The orchards will be in bloom, and Sabbath Stillness will pervade the countryside. Yes, it was Sunday. I had forgot, I knelt and pray'd. The Gordons ay LLOYD HARVIE, in B Ac. Hark! tfuough the air comes the sound of the bag- pipes, Do ye ken the tune that they play?

Away to the south lies a great lake frozen over and covered with snow. The far shore is in- distinct, but the nearer ones are comparatively easy to discern. They are covered with a white lacework which hides the thick underbrush from our gaze. This in turn becomes tall, straight trees, bared of foliage but with a sort of courageous look about them. Over hill and dale silently flutter the snow- flakes, floating aimlessly in the sharp, crisp air. The whole winter scene is one dear to the heart of a true Canadian. 4 Page Twenty-sewn A Reverie by BARBARA scorr, nu A Ab. As I sit before the fire, Thoughts of fun come fiooding back Of the summer, and of camp, Merry sails, and long, long tramps. And I think of many things, Cabin groups and council rings, Riding, tennis, swimming, too, All the things we love to do. Tall pine trees, birches white, Deep blue sky, quiet night, And I hope when winter's over, To be among them all once more. The Man With the Lantern by BARRIE JACK, IVA Did you ever wake, in your railway berth At some far-away stop at the end of the earth, And see against the velvety night A glimmering lantern-a jewel of light? A hunched old figure, bowed down with work, Patrolling the track where the dangers lurk, Seeking the railroad's silent foes, Searching the man with the lantern goes. Loose spikes, soft tanks, the threatening slide The softening snow on the mountain side This humble figure searches, seeks, Through every day of the lengthening weeks. As your train rolled on through deepening black Did you think that, before you, lze'd walked the track? That beneath the treastle was mirrored the gleam Of his light, on the swollen and wintry stream? No night so dark, inclement, or cold But the man with the lantern, hunched and old, Has gone before, all the night through Making the journey safe for you! Another man with the lantern treads That same steel trackg their two bent heads Have studied the track the long night through, Making the journey safe for you! .f Page Twenty-eight My Ship by RAE BORLAND, mB Ab. I'll sail across the blinding main, In a tall ship with billowed sails, I'll turn around and come back again, And brave the fiercest of the gales. I'll take the helmg I'll man the deck, In a fine barque with polished rails: I'll smack ol' Neptune in the neck, And brave the fiercest of the gales. I'll be Lord Nelson at the mast, VVith a Red-Coat crew that never failsg I'll make the history highlights last, And brave the fiercest of the gales. I'll make the pirates turn and run, Or exile them in barren dales, On Christmas Day I'll issue rum, And brave the fiercest of the gales. But this is a story of Conquests' drums, Of my lingering dreams inspired by tales, I'll do my work till my day comes, And brave the fiercest of the gales. The Woods in Winter by JACK RYAN, IIB cbm. As we enter the woods we are welcomed by the chirping of the winter-dwelling birds, the scoldings of the black and red squirrels, and the odd rabbit scurrying into the underbrush out of sight. The wind is still, and a gentle snow falls, adding to the radiance of the white woods. The tops of the tall pine trees, heavily laden with snow, bend over to form an arch over our heads. Here and there are some sheltered spots where the snow has not yet penetrated, and the gold and crimson tinted leaves lie waiting to be covered by a soft White blanket. A wind has risen now, and is snatching up the snow and whirling it in little eddies ahead of us, and blow- ing it off the boughs of the trees into our faces. As we walk along, we find rabbit and woodchuck tracks, but none any bigger than these. Oyer in the distance a little cabin stands on a hill. Out of its chimney smoke is curling lazily and drifting away. The wind has risen high by now, and is biting at our faces. The sight of the cabin is therefore a wel- come one. The owner of the abode gives us shelter until the storm sub- when we once more turn our sides, steps homeward through the magni- I ficent splendour of the winter woods. BOOK REVIEWS A Lantern in Her Hand by BessStreeterAl:lrich Reviewed by MARGARET LUNDY, Sp. Com. This is a story of a young couple who moved into the western part of the United States when it was first opening up. There they made their home of sod. The story tells of their joys and heartbreaks, of their successes and failures. The author shows how a few homes grew into a large community and then into a small city of which these people were the heart. The lives of the central characters are carried right down to our own day, and we see their children and grandchildren marry. The contrast between young people of to-day and young people of those days is striking. We sometimes think of our parents as old fashioned when they tell us how they acted when they were young. When you read this book you are more capable of understanding the bitter disappointment mothers and fathers of to-day face when their children grow up and fail to make good in the world. I can honestly say I did not find one dull page in the entire book. Every little detail is vividly told. There were times when I wanted to weep for the dear mother in her hardships and disappointments. The grasshopper plague is very real and especially interesting because we can compare it with what we have read of the plague in our own west. You do not need a dictionary by your side to read this book, for the diction is simple. It is not a long book, consisting of about three hundred pages. The print is fairly large, and not hard to read. I earnestly urge anyone who is at all interested in pioneer life to read this book. The FlUH'el' of an by Myron Brinig Reviewed by GARTH COWAN, IVA Ac. The story is told of a snake that began eating it- self, beginning at its tail. But when it came to its neck it had to stop for it could go no further. In much the same way Myron Brinig involves himself with his plot to The Flutter of An Eyelid, one of the best and also one of the maddest books written in recent years. In a brief forenote he quotes in part: She also said that Hamlet, being a little mad, feigned madnessf' This may be an explanation. It is certainly not an apology. The story begins with the arrival of Cason Roan- oke, an outstanding conservative writer of Boston to California. From there the story winds its weird, wild, mystic way to the closing pages, where Mr. Brinig, evidently finding the plot too much for even himself, obliterates his characters by turning them and the golden state into the Pacific Ocean. Cer- tainly a startling ending for a startling book, and one that fulfils its purpose much more satisfactorily than other famous endings as, for instance, The Mill on the Floss. The keen satire of a Swift, the sensitive beauty of a Vllilde, the revolting realism of a Zola and the dry humour of a Leacock are not often all found be- tween the covers of one book. Nor is murder often seen as an exquisite beauty, nor death as an answer to a cry for perfect beauty. Our superficial reaction- ary tendencies scream revolting and our inner- most souls say glorious All this is given us by Mr. Brinig in smooth, masterly literary style. This is a book that will be remembered long after read and that will change subtly the viewpoint and re- actions of the reader. the Post by Sir Leonard Woolley Reviewed by FRANK PAMMETT, Ill A Ac. Here is a very interesting little book on the romance of archaeology which is based on a series of six talks broadcast over the British Broad- casting Corporation by the author. We cannot divorce ourselves from our past: we are always conscious of precedents, not least so when we fiout them, and we let experience shape our views and actions: this is so much the case that when tradition is absent or crystallizes into un- reasoned convention, progress stops, But the past to which we appeal must be, in a sense, our own, precedents set by men conditioned much as we are, the experience of races or of individuals morally akin to us: its value is proportionate to the degree of continuity by which we are linked to it.'i Sir Leonard Woolley in his book tells in a very fascinating Way and with numerous illustrations the work of an archaeologist, and the story of the progress of this comparatively recent phase of scientific endeavour. He explains by actual proof the Value of field archaeology to mankind, and cites several instances where it has thrown light on the lives of our forefathers: Written history tells us nothing about Britain before 55 B.C., archaeology can tell us of British kings in the south and east civilized enough to mint their own coins with dies modelled after the famous gold-pieces of Macedonf' The book includes the following general topics and enlarges on each one in a most interesting and instructive manner: the scope of archaeology, the start of an excavation, work on a town site, what ruins tell, supplementing the written records, grave digging, tomb robbers, clay tablets, and the use of archaeological materials. Cicero sums up for us in a few words the chief reason why we should increase our knowledge of this important subject: Not to know what happened before you were born is to remain always but a child. For what is man's life if it is not linked with the life of earlier generations by the memory of the past? Page Twenty-nine THE WORLD OF SCIENCE Aviation Progress Man Achieves at Last His Greatest Dream by LEO CLANCY, IND. ARTS Ill Since the beginning of time, man dreamed of conquering the atmosphere above the earth on which he lived. Many times he stopped and looked up into the great void of space above him. No doubt he wondered and marvelled at the manoeuvres of birds in flights as they wheeled, circled, soared and glided in graceful fashion on the air currents. Perhaps some one man thought a little further than his fellows. What was the strange force which kept the birds aloft by their outstretched wings and tail? Why didn't they fall as a stone cast off a cliff? What rare ability did they possess that enabled them to stay aloft for hours with an almost effortless grace? And finally, why could not man master the theory of flight as he had mastered all things on sea and earth? This question was left unanswered for many generations of mankind, but always it kept reappearing before the mind of the dreamer as does a mirage. Many a genius sat at his work trying to conceive a device by which man might fly. His first idea might have been a pair of wings strapped to his outstretched arms. Perhaps some bolder and more confident individual tested these ideas. With the great wings of some bird he might leap off a cliff confident he could fly-only to crash to his death on the rocks below for the sake of making discoveries in the science of flight. The earliest known device which might really have flown was drawn on canvas by the great artist Leonardo da Vinci early in the sixteenth century. However it was not until almost three hundred years later that tests of flight were actually tried. At this time man interested himself in balloons and rigid or semi-rigid dirigibles, of lighter than air type usually filled with hot air or gas. It was not until the nineteenth century that man turned his attention to heavier than air machines. After the success of the balloons and of such men as Dumont, Santos and others, men became gradually interested in branches of aircraft. The earliest man known to achieve success with heavier than air machines was a German of surprising intelli- gence by the name of Lilienthal. He constructed several types of gliders in which he Went aloft by running down a slope until his momentum carried him into a graceful gliding flight. After this, aviation became more than just a dream. In America the Wright Brothers achieved success such as European adventurers were having abroad. In 1903 at Kitty Hawk Sand Hills in North Carolina the epoch making flight of the Wright Brothers set the world to excited comment. It was really true! Man had flown in a heavier than air machine! From this time a great haste to fly was manifested throughout the world. Aviation in its infancy saw many disappointments, many fatal disasters, many hopes dashed to pieces as man tried to grasp the theory of flight. Men such as Langley, the Wright Brothers, Curtis, Alexander Graham Bell, and countless others in distant countries must be remembered for the part each contributed to aviation. Then came the horrors of the world war. Im- mediately there was a feverish rush among the nations, each trying to build something more deadly, more destructive than its enemy. Aviation was lifted from its infancy when its value as a deadly defensive or offensive weapon of warfare was re- alized. The cleverest minds of the world were set to work in the designing and manufacture of aero- planes for war. During the four years of the war, aviation developed in one year as much as it would in ten years of peace. Motors were improved, planes were made speedier and easier to manoeuver until the end of the War. Then dawned the commercial period. For many years aviation as a commercial means was thought little of by mankind. Gradually aeroplanes came into use for carrying mail and passengers. A need for a new design, better engines, improved accom- modation, became apparent. As a result aircraft corporations sprang up all over the world. Planes of all designs, large and small, came into use. Pas- sengers who formerly sat in an open cockpit of a two passenger plane exposed to propeller blast, exhaust gas and other discomforts, now reclined in the luxurious comfort of modern transport planes. Great strides were taken until to-day commercial aviation is a huge industry in itself. It is an industry in itself. It is an industry which pays workers and owners well. To-day regular routes for airmail and passenger transportation are carried out to split-second time schedule. Engines, design and the flying of aircraft have developed into a fine science. Always the cry for something better, safer, and faster is heard, and always those behind the scenes are seeking to satisfy this demand. From something that was considered the dream of a lunatic, aviation has grown to its present status, and still it is striving for that peak of perfection it has not yet achieved.

Page Thirty , The Horseless Carriage Many and Amusing Were the Thrills and Spills of the First Automobiles by DONALD CARTER, III Ind. Arts On a day in October, 1892, the first American motor car was seen on the road. This pioneer con- trivance was the labored creation of the Duryea Brothers, proprietors of a bicycle shop at Spring- field, Massachusetts. The car's body was taken intact from a lady's phaeton, complete with whip- socket. Once its ear-splitting one-cylinder engine was started there was no way to control the car's speed: it ran seven miles an hour until it hit some- thing or stopped. Within a few years all sorts of motor vehicles were on the market, electric, steam and gasoline cars. Less orthodox ones were propelled by com- pressed air, kerosene, acetylene gas, ether, liquid air, and illuminating gas. A Chicagoan invented the multiple cylinder engine so designed that when driving on level ground, the driver could disconnect the cylinders not needed and give them a rest. A still more ec- conomical trans- the ever-present problem of animal psychology. How should the well-bred motorist approach the skittish horse that had heard his coming from afar? When they met, the chances were that someone was going to be pretty mad. There were even cases where motorists were shot at by enraged farmers. The mechanical perversity of the early motor car was almost beyond belief. A gas tank sometimes dropped oii. Occasionally, the whole engine fell out. A long journey of seventy-five miles was likely to be ended with stripped gears, burnt out bearings, and clogged valves. At any moment the driver might be forced to take his car to pieces on the road and practically rebuild it, with the usaul as- sistance of idlers and small boys. Failing in this, the car was towed by a horse to the nearest town for repairs. Most of the repair men were retired locksmiths, plumbers, or bicycle mechanics. With little know- ledge but vast curiosity, they usually had a most PQ1'tati0UWaSP,f0' unfortunate influence upon the machinery brought mlsed by a SPUUS GENERA to their attention.

Time cannoi fmprmv fi. do. In those days the officers of a ly ran on mothballs, achieving three miles to the pound of moth repellent. Its chief trouble was that the exhaust emitted fumes as abhorrent to men as to moths, as bad, perhaps, as the fumes of the modern bus. Early in motor history a weakness for reckless superlatives developed. In 1899 one manufacturer assured potential purchasers that, No better will be made. Time cannot improve it. To visualize the vehicles thus hailed, imagine an ordinary buggy body mounted on bicycle wheels. Hang an oil lamp on the dashboard for a headlight g provide a curved steering tiller, a three gallon gas tank, and beneath the seat put a steam boiler, wrapped in piano wire to keep it from exploding. Learning to use the early car was a bewildering task. The driver of one popular car, for instance, had to contend with three handlevers, three foot- levers, two hand-Wheels and a bell. Then there was motor company might expect to be called out of bed at any hour of the night to aid a Stranded Client, What to call the new vehicle was a serious ques- tion. At first Hhorseless carriage was popular. Fearful and wonderful were some of the other verbal inventions which contended for favor. 'fPolycycle, petrocar, autoliacre, and self-propeller, all were in actual use not to mention Hmotocyclef' autogondola or road locomotive. Similarly there was the question of what to call the driver Chauffeur met with disfavour as too frenchified and because it was translated literally to mean Stroker instead motomeer, conductor and motorman were advocated. A Thus, amid praise and ridicule, our pioneer motorists made the first feeble assaults upon the barriers of space and time. They were hardy souls. Their's was a creed of noble simplicity that what one man had built, another man could keep in motion. Strong in this faith, they suffered, endured and conquered to give us the modern motor car. Page T hirty-cme lnterview With a Fire Ranger A Few Words With the Guardian of Ontario's Forests By BETTY DETCHER, Sp. Com. With trembling hand, I opened the door as my host called cheerily, Come right in. I was not nervous but stronger hearts than mine had quaked at the mere thought of ascending the tiny ladder which leads up to a fire ranger's tower. I looked back once, waved to my more timid companions on the the ground below, and entered the stronghold of one of the guardians of our northern forests. Kirk Adams is a typical member of that great body of men who stand guard over the northland. He is very kind and friendly, and willing to answer any questions about his work. How long have you been a ranger? After I had assured him I wouldn't ask his age, he answered slowly, Twenty years. I came up here when there were no roads, only a winding trail through the forest. The last twenty miles were covered in canoes. Why did you choose this type of work ? I asked, wondering why a man born and educated in the city should wish to forsake it as this man had done. The old story, he replied with a laugh, Ad- ventures, thrills, you might say,-'the call of the wi1d.' But there isn't the same thrill now that ex- isted when I first came out here. We have aero- planes, radio, and motorcars to assist us in our work, and it is not so lonely since highways have been built through the forests. For the same reason, he added, Our work has been greatly increased. There is always the careless camper or motorist who leaves behind him a glowing cigarette butt or the unquenched embers of a campfire. Kirk was growing more and more excited as he denounced the thoughtlessness and indifference of some of the tourists who travelled through his be- loved Algonquin. Suddenly he stopped speaking, and, holding up his hand for silence, picked up from the table a pair of powerful binoculars with the re- mark, Look just to the north of the nearest moun- tain, and tell me what you see. At first I could see nothing strange, but as my eyes became accustomed to the powerful glasses I could detect a thin column of bluish-grey smoke ris- ing from behind the mountains. Smoke .,..... . Smoke! l I shouted excitedly, Hurry ...,.... do something !' ' The ranger laughed at my excitement and calmly bent over the radio. Tap-Tap-he repeated the message as he sent it out to headquarters at Whit- ney, twenty miles away, 'iSmoke rising at White Mountain-Investigate, Adams. Turning from the radio he said to me, Now watch the sky over there. Almost before he had finished speaking two aero- planes came in sight, flew to the place from which the smoke was rising, dropped chemicals to ex- tinguish the flames, and fiew off again. Continued on Page 865 Page Tlzirty-two The Man Who conceived a New Universe Einstein, the Worlc.l's Foremost Scientist by HUGH KENNER, II C Ac. His reasoning is the result of one of the highest achievements of human thought. The speaker was Sir joseph -I. Thomson, who was certainly not given to uttering ill-considered words. The thinker referred to was Albert Einsteing his achievment, the General Theory of Relativity. Greater mathematicians than this shock-headed German jew have existed, certainly greater ex- perimentersg but he srupasses them all in the qual- ity of his imagination. Michelson it was who performed the preliminary experiments, and it was Minkowski who gave the Theory its elegant mathem- atical dressg but it took the genius of Einstein to frame for the world a new conception of the universe. Einstein was born in the city of Ulm, in southern Germany, in the year 1879. So backward was he at acquiring the ability to walk and talk that for a time it was feared that he was mentally deficientg on the other hand, his first sight of the compass needle's mysterious persistence made him tremble and grow cold, Perhaps it was then, at the age of four years, that he had the first premonition of the greatness that was to be his in the scientific world. Be that as it may, he soon entered school at Munich, fifty miles from his birthplace, where he distinguish- ed himself in mathematics and in little else. At this time a textbook on geometry, which was not then a school subject, fell into his hands, and he took great delight in working out the problems it contained. At the age of fourteen it was manifest to those who knew him that he was a mathematical genius. After some time the family moved to Italy, whence he was sent to Switzerland to enter the Zurich Academy. Failing completely in the entrance examination, the man was to be ranked with New- ton and Copernicus was forced to do plenty of cramming and submit to a second test before being accepted. Meanwhile, in America, great things were hap- pening in the world of physics. It had long been known that the human creature has no sense of ab- solute motiong he can detect change of position only by reference to some fixed outside point: that is, only relative motion can be sensed. In 1887 Michel- son and Morley performed their famous experiment to determine the velocity of the earth relative to the ether. Their apparatus was almost incredibly sensitive, but the experiment failed completely, and the scientific world was thrown into a quandary until Hendrik Lorentz proposed his Contraction Hypothesis, which partly solved the difiiculty. When Einstein was in his second year at the Academy, he began to see his way clear to a solu- tion of the problem which had been set the scien- tists, and when he left the Institution and started work in the patent office at Berne he evolved what we know as the Restricted Theory of Relativity, published in 1905. CContinued on Page 805 Television by R. HISCOX, II F Ind. A. Many are the results of man's ingenuity through recent years, and many have been his accomplish- ments. Perhaps the most recent invention of modern time is the radio, which is truly marvellous in every sense of the word. However, we are more interested in radio's most recent development-- Television. Television, although still in the experimental stage in Canada and in the United States, has ad- vanced considerably in Great Britain. There, television broadcasts are being executed by the British Broadcasting Corporation, which presents four television broad- casts per week.

This current when used with special equipment can be made to perform remarkable feats which I cannot relate because of limited space. In television transmissions, a photo-cell is used to convert light changes into varying electric currents. These currents travel to the radio station where they are changed into radio waves. These waves are transmitted over the ether, and are received through a radio receiver, which changes the radio Waves back into electric currents.

Therefore, when a light jrujcas img .ffnfioh This drawing is lypfw! of 1116 simplest farm qf teleziiazion apparatus. lamp, being very sensitive to small electric currents, reacts to the el- ectrical impulses sent out by the radio receiver. Thus, if the appara- tus is properly tuned to the transmitting station the picture being broadcast will be seen by looking through the holes in the revolving disk. The sketch will, I trust, further the reader's knowledge of television from tower to screen. Wonders of Science Nothing shows better the immensity of the field of science than the greatest and smallest of its units of linear measurement - the light year and the angstrom. The iirst is equal to the distance travelled by light Cspeeding at 186,000 miles per secondl in a year, while the angstromis1!10,000,000 of a milli- meter. The star we know as the sun ranks among the more inferior lights of the universe. To show just how insignificant it really is, astronomers have esti- mated our entire solar system, sun and all, could revolve WITHIN the space occupied by a gigantic star such as Betelgueux. Page Thirty-three 'BAVEL Alaska by R. ROBINSON and F. TREBLICOCK, IV A Come with us to mysterious Alaska, Land of the Midnight Sun. First imagine yourself sailing out of Vancouver harbour on the summer evening of July 14. VVe soon leave the harbour lights behind us and proceed northward under the shadow of night. Our first stop is at Alert Bay a little Indian village on the north-east shore of Vancouver Island. We Walk up the one and only street passing many little Indian and japanese children who beg to have their pictures taken. At the end of the street we find our- selves in a Weird old Indian grave-yard which is full of genuine family totem poles. The whole place is very rough and unkept and has an appearance of general desolation. Throughout the cemetery, on the topmost branches of many of the tremendously tall trees can be seen little wooden boxes which contain bodies of babies who died before they were a year old. All aboard! and in a little while we are sailing northward once more. We now cross Queen Char- lotte Sound which is the first stretch of open Water encountered by us and which tests our sea-legs. However, this is soon left behind and the boat docks once more-this time at Prince Rupert. This is our last Canadian port-of-call and here all Cana- dian passengers must make out their immigration cards which are to be presented to the customs ofiicers who board the boat at Ketchikan, Alaska. As Ketchikan is the first Alaskan town we im- patiently wait to get through the customs formali- ties. The first thing that impresses us is the main street which is built of planks. Now let us follow the crowd into a curio shop on the main corner. Our attention is immediately drawn to the thousands of trinkets and Indian tokens which are laid out on the counters and hung up on the walls. There is an exceptionally fine display of rare furs in an ad- joining room, the most outstanding of which are the fine ermine skins. Later we go up to an Indian school on the moun- tain side. Our guide is a little twelve year old Indian boy. He takes us first into a classroom where there are several Indian women weaving baskets. Then we go across the hall into a room where there are many Indian children carving out their family totem poles. On leaving we all gather round the little boy and have our pictures taken on the steps of the school. As we return to the ship we pass a part of the fishing fleet which has put in to harbour for the night. The greater part is, how- ever, too far away to come in daily and only returns at certain intervals. Most of the inhabitants of Ketchikan are fishermen and thus the village is rather deserted in summer. Ketchikan's total population is, at the most, one thousand.

A lake in Ireland is the same shape as the island and from this fact comes the legend. This island of sandy beaches, cliffs, mountains, and glens, is indeed the playground of the British Isles, a miniature Switzerland. From early May to late September people flock there, some to rest and admire the beauty of the place, others to spend their holidays in sport and fun. The way to this isle of rest and sport is through the air and over the water. The island boasts of four air ports to which aeroplanes come daily, bringing the more venture- some visitors. For those whose motto is slow but sure the means of travel is small daily steamers which come to the port of Douglas, capital of the island, in three and a half hours, compared with the aeroplanes thirty minutes. As many as fifty thousand people come in one day. The craggy coastline is one of hrst beauties of Isle of Man. Most of the shore is ragged cliff, broken now and then by deep sandy inlets into which the foaming sea rushes, wearing the inlets ever deeper and smoother, making small caves larger, and filling in others with loose rock and sand. Thrilling is it to see the waves throw themselves on the beach, roll closer, then ebb away again. In such an inlet, protected from the lashing sea, there is Groudle Aquarium, natural pit where sea lions make their home the year round. Then there are the Pirates' Caves at Port Soderick where once Norse pirates had their headquarters. With ropes tied about their Waists to prevent themselves from becoming lost, Lake Louise, Near Banff, Alberta people can wander far into these caves, the magnifi- cent work of nature. There is the Calf of Man, a small rocky island to the south of Man. This deso- late isle is used as a bird sanctuary, where many unusual birds, which cannot be found elsewhere in the north, flock in countless numbers. The sea front of Douglas is the finest part of the coast. Powder sand fills the entire distance from Onchan Head to Douglas Head three miles apart. The beach is the delight of all visitors both old and young. The young play in the sand and bathe in the sea, while the old take chairs and gain full benefit from the soft rays of the sun. Behind the beach is a promenade which acts as a break-water and as an avenue for walking and driving. Huge modernistic gardens extend from one end of the promenade to the other. Farther inland are the hills and mountains. VValki11g is the greatest pleasure in these hills, green and fresh, covered most of the year with gorse and heather. Always are they a mass of colour, always do they tempt people to walk up them to gaze at the plains of heather to the north, to look far out to sea on clear days and see the famous mountain of Morn in the blue mists of Ireland. Snaefel, the highest mountain on Man, soars far above the others, enveloped in mist most of the time. The North and South Barrule rank next to their sister, their beauty attracting many enthusiastic climbers. Among the hills are numberless glens, deep and shaded, winding curiously. Always a small stream bubbles over the rocks on its long arduous journey to the sea. Small rustic paths and bridges h ve been built to enhance the singular beauty of the shaded vales, overhung by sweeping branches, through which the sun lilters and plays on the shimmering water and on the clusters of flowers which cover the sides of the valley.

VVe motored along the coast road until We reached Carrickfergus. Here we stopped, in- tending to see the famous Carrickfergus Castle, once besieged and captured by Bruce. It was in this vicinity that William of Orange landed to start his conquest of Ireland. In one of the rooms King john once slept, in the roof over the entrance to the keep I noticed some holes. These, I was told, were to pour boiling lead and oil on the unfortunate heads of the enemy as they passed under. Soon after leaving Carrickfergus We arrived at Lame. As our boat did not sail for about two hours, we wandered around the village looking for a place to eat. It wasn't as attractive as most of the villages I had seen in Ireland. We had our tea in a small, upstairs room where there was a small, round table. The Irish are very trusting, for, as we went out, the proprietress asked us how many cakes we had eat- en and charged us only for those. When we went back to our boat we found that the ship authorities were having a hard time. They were trying to load a cargo of sheep and pigs which simply would not go where they were supposed to. After a while we started. All of the family stood on deck until Ireland faded from view. At dusk we reached Stranraer, which is on the south-west coast of Scotland. When we disem- barked my father went to see about the unloading of the car. Night drew on and still no car. After A Summer Day By DOROTHY PARKHILL lXl The stately maple shakes her tousled head, Early in the morning when all the world seems dead, VVakes and sees the red sun waking, To tell the world a glorious day is breaking. As the sun comes up from its invisible bed, It plays with the dancing waves that have fled From the wild night's tossing wind That blew when the moon had slowly dimmed. Then giving the earth a dazzling smile, It climbs on its upward journey, mile after mile, And with one last, long, lingering ray, It sinks at the end of a summer day. O 0 waiting for about two hours, we could dimly see it being lifted high into the air by a crane and lowered to the dock below. Soon we set off for Ballantrae, where we were to spend the night. After driving for twenty miles along a dark coast road with only the dull sound of the ocean in our ears, we arrived at our destination. Although it was about midnight a welcome a- waited us. The proprietress of the spotlessly clean Scottish hotel had thoughtfully prepared warm food and drinks for us. Soon after we were sleep- ing soundly-our first night in Scotland. Mysterious Night By NORMA RAY :xi O Night! Night! mysterious Night! Why do you hide and lurk in the dark? Tell all your secrets and mysteries to me, What does the pine tree whisper ?-Hark! Do you not hear it behind your cloak? Can you not tell me the song of the sea? Where are the sailors who died in ships? O Night! Night! Tell your story to me. And, Night, tell the moon and the stars also That I'd like to know where they sleep all dayg And why do you creep, like a big, black ghost, From way over there across the bay? Page Thirty-six O Night! Night! mysterious Night li Don't stand, so still, so black, so dead, But tell me the mysteries you hide 'neath your veil, And don't make that oak tree creak o'er my head. Way over there, the cemetery lies. O Night! hearltess Night! Your secret is there, You are the symbol of death, of hateg O Night! wicked Night! let the sunlight glare. But ah, you just laugh and shriek through the treesg You're dead as a ghost, you wonit answer me, As I stand like a fool, begging answers from stone, And you hoard your secrets and howl with glee. al '1 Windsor Castle by aemuce NEWMAN, uxn Direct thy steps to ll'z'ndsor's stately courts-A Explore her halls, Izer towers, Izer sacred fone, And treat thine eye with grandeur. Look aronna' And mark the teeming landscape strew'd with genzs Of archttectnreg mansions, villas, domes, Replete with art and science, taste and beauty. This unsigned verse which I recently read, stirred many pleasant memories. Windsor Castle was one of the historic places I visited while in England last summer, and of it I can write only very briefiy in this short article. The first glance at this massive gray building of round and square towers, set high on the hill overlooking the Thames, is almost suf- ficient reward for the visitor who has travelled far to see it. The picture it presents is one of great dignity and strength, suggesting also, mystery and romance. This castle was first begun by William the Conqueror in 1070, and improved upon by suc- ceeding kings, until the reign of Edward III. He demolished the whole castle and rebuilt the present pile, commencing it in 1350, and completing it in 1374. On closer inspection we find it is composed of a series of buildings. Passing through the Henry VIII gateway, and crossing the courtyard which is surrounded by Towers and servants' quarters, we come to a beauti- ful building which is St George's Chapel. Inside are monuments to many kings and noblemen, great stained glass windows and beautiful carvings of which space will not allow a fuller description. Here are the tombs also of Edward IV, Edward VII, Queen Alexandra, Henry VIII, Jane Seymour, Charles I and the infant daughter of Queen Anne and in the Royal vault lies the late King George V. C The Beloved as he is sometimes calledj. Daily services are held, and here the Knights of the Garter are installed. From here we pass through the clois- ters to the side of the castle overlooking the Thames, Eton College and farther on Runnymede. Again turning, this time to the right, we come to the main part of the building con- taining the State Apart- There is a Worcester set made for William IV, various pieces of Wedgewood made for George IV, two Minton services, one for Queen Victoria, and the other for Edward VII for use on the Royal Yacht, a service of Copeland made for the late King George V and Queen Mary. There are also cabinets of Dresden and Furstenberg China. At the head of the Grand staircase stands a silver suit of Armour made for Henry VIII, also two Sedan chairs made for Queen Charlotte. Among the suits of armour is one made for Prince Rupert, who was Governor of the castle during the reign of Charles II. Christopher Wren designed the Charles II din- ing-room. This is held ready and is used when foreign sovereigns visit in state. In this room there are several very old pieces of furniture many of which belonged to Charles I and james II. One piece, an Elizabethan cabinet of Eastern design, is said to be the oldest article of furniture in the whole castle. In the next room the walls and furniture are covered with crimson silk and the pictures are all by Rubens, so that this apartment is known as the Rubens Room. The state bedroom was at one time called the Council Chamber but is now fitted as a sleeping apartment. The furniture is upholstered in Chinese silk and the walls are covered with green silk damaskg the bed is hung with curtains of embroidered silk. The King's and Queen's dressing rooms are each decorated in cream damask and the furniture con- sists of several cabinets and foot stools. The Picture Gallery is used as a writing room, and the walls are again covered in silk, while in the corner nearest the window is a writing desk and a pair of cabinets. By the door is a small table and mC1'1'CS which are OPCH to PA W wif' I' another cabinet withthe the public only when the monogram of Mary and Royal family is not in resi- 1- I N I nh ' .--,'.--I ,ni William on it, dence.

BANNISTER, v A To try to describe all the amusing things that were looked upon as 'the very latest' thirty years ago, would be impossible in so short an article. I shall concentrate on one thing that interested me, the automobile of nineteen hundred and eight. Here are a few of the ultra-modern features found only on the best mnzlels. The Winton had a douche under each wheel to cool off the tires when the car was running. It sprayed a fine stream of water against each of the tires and was controlled by a hand pump which the driver operated from his seat. The Isotta, fthe Desoto's grandfatherl, car- ried a spare tire on the roof. To get at it, a folding ladder was supplied at no extra cost. For puncture protection someone invented a band of round steel plates which were called armour plate. With them you were supposed to be able to drive over bottles, nails, stones and rocky ruts with- out danger of puncture. No mention was made of the fact that a car equipped with Armour Plate made as much noise as a cross between a stone crusher and a threshing machine. Evidently there were 'back seat drivers' as far back as 1908, for among the accessories available, was a horn called 'the Jericho' which could be op- erated by the driver and passenger at the same time. At least, we can be thankful that there is no such thing on the market today. Some people complain about the noisy horns on our cars of today. Thirty years ago, a great many cars were equipped with a combination horn and siren which could be heard clearly from three to five miles. CC'0n.'z'11ued 011 Page 783 Irate Parent: School work?

We consider this section to be a very important part of The Echoes, as it is only by criti- cism from outside sources that we shall be able to ascertain the true merits and defects of our mag- azine. From our exchange shelves we also obtain many new ideas for the improvement of our pub- lication and solve the many format problems that are constantly arising. Plans for Next Year. Our neighbours, such as Lindsay and Trenton, are well represented on our exchange shelves. From Eastern and Western Ontario we also receive a good number of magazines. The Prairie Provinces and British Columbia have a fair representation. From Northern Ontario, however, we have only one exchange, and from the Maritimes and Quebec we also receive just one school magazine. Before the next publication of The Echoes we hope to build up our exchange list in these two areas. It is also our plan during the coming year to widen the scope of our correspondence so as to in- clude some exchanges from all parts of the British Empire, and a few from the United States. At present we have but one American school listed on our files. So, watch for the new names in this sec- tion of next year's Echoes. Honourable Mention. We receive many fine magazines in our exchange but perhaps the three best all-round magazines on our lists for this year are: Vox Lyce1'fCentral Collegiate Institute, Hamil- ton. Grzunbler-Kitchener Collegiate Institute. Coum1z'ssz'oner's High School Year Book-Quebec Citv. Among our smaller magazines the Taller of Lind- say Collegiate Institute is possibly the best. A General Criticism. On going through our exchanges we find that a certain number of magazines do not make clear in any way what school publishes them. The lack of this particular information is rather disconcerting to outside readers and we would strongly recommend that more attention be given by our exchange friends to this small but important item. With sincere gratitude we wish to acknowledge and briefly comment on the following exchanges: Acta Collegzf, Chatham Collegiate Institute.

Hooper The Election Campaign The annual campaign for the election of the ex- ecutive of the Students' Council was carried out in the last week of September and the lirst week of October. In accordance with established custom, nominees for the odices were presented by the upper forms. The following day the two candidates for president chose sides, and the names Measles, and Mumps were decided upon. The Measles solicited the election of the fol- lowing: Allan Park-President Margaret Lundy-Vice President jean Moore-Secretary Kenneth Rose-Treasurer The Mumps party consisted of: Horace Steer+President Donald Corrin-Vice President Florence Trebilcock-Secretary jim Sands-Treasurer During the ensuing week, numerous clever posters adorned the walls of the school. Then each can- didate in turn delivered his speech from the plat- form in morning assembly. The voting took place in the library and the campaign ended with the selection of the entire Measles party. Page Forty-six With the assistance of Mr. W. Brown and Mr. R. D. Brown, appointed by Dr. Kenner to super- vise the 1937-38 Students' Council, the various activities of the school term were begun. Prepara- tions were made and carried out for Commencement, the At Home, Literary Meetings, and the Operetta. Election Promises The fulfilment of election promises was also a major function of the Students' Council. New school crests each with a large letter P in garnet, were procured and may be received by outstanding pupils for merit only. The school spirit at the Rugby Games was increased by the presence of the Bugle Band and the parading of the school flag. With the aid of the Students' Council, blazers were pur- chased for the Senior Girls' Basketball Team and a junior Team was organized. The Hockey Team, which has won much honour for the school, also originated in an election promise. As in former years, one of the campaign planks was the promise of entertainment. Although it has not as yet been fulfilled, with the purchase of the new Sound Movie Machine, pictures will be shown once a week in morning assembly. JEAN MooRE The Literary Meetings One of the major factors which contribute to the enjoyment of the school year, are the form Literary Meetings. This year they have been es- pecially good. As in former years, the Upper Forms VA, VB, and IVA accepted the responsibility of presenting the first Lit of the season. By way of an experi- ment, the entire program was in the hands of the students. In a speech given by the President of the Students' Council, it was urged that the meet- ings this year be more literary and that there be as little help from the teachers as possible. Several recitations and musical numbers made up the first part of the program. A chorus consisting of members of IVA and VB sang the novelty song, We're Working Our Way Through College, with added spirit in the school yells. The spice of the program was a one-act play entitled Evening Dress Indispensable, put on by VA. The plot centred about the daughter, Sheila, who had gone classical in spite of her mother's efforts to make her like other girls. Her mother, Alice, was a widow, but very young and gay. Alice, her would-be husband, George Connaught, and Sheila's suitor, Geoffrey Chandler, did their best to bring the girl to her senses but succeeded only when Alice accepted a date with Geoffrey, and appeared looking very charming in an evening dress. Not to be outdone, Sheila discarded her artist's smock for an evening dress and announced that she was going out with George. However, after some persuasion on the parts of Geoffrey and Alice, the play ended with Sheila, a different person altogether, going off happi- ly with Geoffrey to the theatre, leaving Alice and George seriously contemplating marriage.

T o m Hooper The second Lit was presented by Forms IVB, IIIA, B, C and D on November 6th. The meeting took the form of a play, portraying the life of Handel. The play Was divided into three acts, each representing one period in the life of the composer. The first act opened with a scene from Handel's childhood. His father, who wished him to become a lawyer, would not allow him to study music, and so he C' 1 f' ,G- NY :I !i,J igwx R' 1 X jggiyf. . 3 X xv F959 YBQE: 'Al 'f35,1gjv i X dt?

He immediately recognized talent and persuaded Handel's father to give him a musical education. Before long, he became famous and his music was played and sung everywhere. He studied in Italy and eventually settled in England, where he gain- ed great renown. At times the English turned against him as a foreign- er and on one of these occasions he left England for Ireland. It was in Dublin that he wrote his greatest work, The - Messz'a1z. The remarkable part of the program was that the students themselves wrote the play. There were numerous musical num- bers, devoted to the works of Handel, which added greatly to the enjoyment of the performance. The scenery and costumes, as well as the splendid talent and literary ability, went toward making it a success. Over forty people assisted in putting on this per- formance.

Vcledictory Mr. Chairman, Members of the Board, Dr. Ken- ner, Ladies and Gentlemen: To-day sees yet another Commencement in the history of P.C.I. Graduates are again present for the formal breaking of the ties of High-School life. Consequently a feeling of sorrow is present-a sen- timent which serves only too well in expressing the great love in the heart of each for P.C.I. Even at this moment, however, the gravity of the occasion does not reach to its full extent. We are eager to explore new worlds beyond our life here, forming new loyalties while strengthening the old. Therefore, we must wait until later years when our spirits will be more settled, for appreciation of our days spent here. In our passage through school life we have all ex- perienced changes. In a sense we are like the fic- titious character Mr. Polly. This man is portrayed by a well known writer as one who at fourteen could not tolerate his father's ignorance yet at twenty-one was amazed at the amount of knowledge his parent had gathered in seven years. Even so, we the graduates have had understanding, and with under- standing has come an appreciation for the tact and method of our instructors. The fame of our staff is spread far and what little might be said here would add little to it. I may say, however, that each and every one of the graduates is sincerely thankful for this experienced guidance throughout crucial years. Page Forty-eight We have been moulded by careful hands that our best qualities, both physical and intellectual, might be brought forth. A greater service can never be done anyone. Now, equipped with ideals and vig- our, it is our duty to go forth and uphold the trust placed in us. If, after having done our utmost, we do not quite reach our expectations, then let us not be discouraged, for, as Browning says: What I aspired to be-and was not,-comforts me. But in order to have honest comfort we must have honest inspiration. We are about to be con- fronted with problems which our own resolve must overcome. Let us then, on this day of Commence- ment, uncover and bring to the light our elusive ambitions and determinations and set forth to con- quer the future-come what may. Visiting Artists On two occasions this term we have had the good fortune to hear three world famous artists, namely, Nicholas Massue, tenor of the Metropolitan Opera, and the piano duo, Etta Cole and Naomi Yanova. These artists have presented short but intensely interesting programmes to a well-filled auditorium of eager students. These programmes have done much to stimulate an interest in better music. a Commencement Exercises On Friday afternoon, December 3, the annual Commencement Exercises of P.C.V.S. were held in the school Auditorium. The school orchestra, directed by Mr. A. J. Weames, played several greatly appreciated num- bers. Following the opening selection by the or- chestra, the chairman, Dr. G. Raymore Scott, made a brief address. The Academic Graduation diplomas were pre- sented by Mr. V. R. Henry, the Commercial and Special Commercial diplomas by Miss Thompson, and the Industrial Arts and Household Arts dip- lomas by Mr. Corneil. Mr. Adrian Macdonald, M.A., of the Normal School staff gave an inspiring and humorous address, in which he urged the gradua- ting classes to be broad-minded, decisive, happy, to have respect for themselves, to do something about their dreams, and to have the courage to take responsibility. The Girls' and Boys' Glee Clubs under the direc- tion of Mr. M. B. Chenhall added much to the program. The girls sang two selections from Verdi's II Tr0i'at0re - Home to Our Mountains and The Nun's Chorus. The boys sang The Lost Chord and as an encore Hop, you Grasshopper, Hop. Mr. H. G. Walker of the Board of Education pre- sented the W. G. Morrow Scholarships to winners in the Vocational Department, after which the presentation of the Nicholls Scholarships to winners in the Academic Department, was made by Mr. K. J. Wightman B.A., I.P.S. In the abscence of Dr. F. C. Neal, Dr. Scott pre- sented the Neal Football Trophy to Haig Kelly, captain of the rugby team, for winning the C.O.S. S.A. Championship. The Ar Silver figures dancing on a black background, a rose and silver rising sun behind the orchestra, over- head festoons of the school colors, garnet and grey, and on the dance floor between five and six hundred lads and lassies stepping to the latest dance hits played by Eddie Stroud and his orchestra. On Wednesday evening, December the twenty- ninth, the twenty-seventh annual At Home of the Peterborough Collegiate and Vocational School was held in the gynmasium with a record attendance of students and old boys and girls. Particular Commendation must be given to the decorating committee, working under the guidance of Miss Thompson, assisted by Edna Borland, whose untiring efforts converted the gymnasium into a veritable fairyland. Mary McPherson and Gerard Creighton were the recipients of the A. XVander Trophies, given each year to the senior athletic champions. A splendid valedictory address was read by Peter Demos speaking for all the graduates. Miss Thompson presented the Penmanship Prize to Violet Hobson, and Miss VVhite the French Prose Prizes, Upper School to Peter Demos, Middle School to Ronald Dick. The prizes for scholarship in Canadian History, donated by the Peter Robinson Chapter, l.O.D.E., were presented by Mrs. Alex. Sollitt, Regent of the Chapter, to jean Moore, Carlyle jacquith, and Eunice Armstrong. The climax of the program came when Dr. Kenner announced to an eagerly awaiting audience the names of the Princeps Alumna and Princeps Alum- nus. Wilda Saunders merited the honour of re- ceiving Mrs. Downey's prize while the Melville C. Robinson Memorial Prize, and the Principals Prize were bestowed upon Ronald Dick. An unexpected award was won by Haig Kelly who received a special prize from Dr. Kenner for his ideal sportsmanship. The Commencement Exercises concluded with the singing of the National Anthem. Following the programme in the Auditorium, tea was served in the gymnasium to the parents and friends of the graduating classes. This tea was sponsored by the staFf. ln the evening the Annual Commencement Dance was held for the graduating classes and members of the third, fourth and fifth forms. Music was sup- plied by George Broadley. Supper was served toward the close of the even- ing. J. M. Home Supper was served at midnight by Messrs. Hooper Sz Sons. All too soon the strains of the Home Waltz echoed through the room, and students and graduates re- alized that once more the Christmas Dance was over. We wish to thank the patrons and patronesses: Dr. and Mrs. H. R. H. Kenner Dr. and Mrs. G. Raymore Scott Mr and Mrs. Wesley Brown Mr and Mrs. David R. Brown Mr and Mrs. W. A.

Cunningham, J, Prophet, S. Ashby, B. Staples, L, Routly The Orchestra Hflllfbfitf is the Universal Language Monteverdi laid the foundation of the modern orchestra when he multiplied the stringed instru- ments and relegated the pianoforte-or rather its precursor, the harpsichord-to a somewhat sub- ordinate position. Between the periods of Mon- teverdi's genius and Haydn's ,there were many experiments made in the arrangement and com- binations of instruments. Haydn added drums and trumpets to an orchestra of strings, Mozart added the expressive clarinet and the trombone. The piccolo and flute were included as novelties and from Mozart to this present, miraculous, twentieth cen- tury, the only additions have been in improvements of mechanism and in variety in combinations of tone-colours. The modern instrumentation, then, has developed gradually but very efficiently, as our own orchestra proves. Following the graduation of a number of our school musicians, the orchestra, this year, started out on a very unstable footing. But with the full support of those members who remained and of those who have just joined our ranks, and of 'the school assembly, we have strengthened our hold and are well under way. We heartily welcome our newcomers: HShirley Ashby, Lloyd Routly, Sonnie Roy, and Betty Wolfe, who play the violin, Don Flett, 'cellog Allan Lockington, bass, Stewart Lock- ington, trombone, Don Ford and Davis Graham, cornet. Doug Moore, jewitt Parr, and Duncan Seymour have graduated from second violin to first. We wish them every success. Pu ge F :fly The Glee Clubs The P.C.I. Glee Clubs got under way this year well before Commencement. Orma Lacheur and Alicia Langley were chosen as girls' leaders and John Hooper and Horace Steer as boys' leaders. At Commencement, the only public event in which the Glee clubs participate under the name of Glee club, the girls sang a few airs from Verdi's Il Trovatoren and the boys sang a sprightly melody entitled 'Hop, you Grasshoppers, Hopl' Shortly after Commencement, the operetta prac- tices started: really a continuation of the faithful turn-out of the Glee Clubs. Here, I think, we must pay tribute to Mr. Chen- hall, without whom there would be no Glee Clubs or Operetta. His untiring efforts and personal interest are the great deciding factors in both. Various teachers, among whom Mr. Wesley Brown must be mentioned, have been most kind in their support, and we thank them. HORACE STEER So far the orchestra has ably supplemented the programmes of the Armistice Day Service of Novem- ber the tenth and of the various Literary meetings. But the big event of the orchestra-year will be our presentation, on the nights of the Operetta, of The Overture from Egmont. We hope you will like it with its special feature of two pianos. We take this opportunity of thanking Mr. A. J. Weames, B.Sc., our conductor, for his fine services, the Students' Council for its Welcome financial backing, and the student body for its splendid sup- port. We are at your service, EDNA BORLAND Princess Zara Once again the pupils of P.C.I. have proved to a large and appreciative audience that high school students can present a musical production worthy of the name. Princess Zara, presented this year, was considerably harder than former attempts, but it was as good if not better than usual. The in- crease in the amount spent on costumes provided a spectacle surpassing any seen on the stage of our Auditorium. The period of the operetta necessi- tated a variety of elaborate costumes which were rented. To Miss Gerrard we are indebted for the making of costumes for the fairies and witches. The story is laid in England. The King, Bucono- core, a senile humorist and anti-superstitionist, is about to resign his throne in favour of his beautiful daughter, the Princess Zara. He is warned by Butterfly, the Queen of the Fairies, that this will bri11g a dreadful retribution on him, but he proceeds with his plans, thus bringing into action the witches' curse. After the coronation, Zara forgets every- thing that happened before. She banishes her father, and her lover, the handsome Prince Florizel, to the kitchen. The rest of the household is hover- ing between a headless or parboiled state, for Zara commands an execution at the slightest provocation. just as she is to have her own father beheaded, the Queen of the Fairies comes to the rescue of the un- happy household. Bringing the princess to her senses with a few stern words, she prevails on her to ask her father's pardon on her knees. This breaks the witchs' curse, and the operetta ends in a final happy chorus from the entire cast assembled on the stage.

Page Fifty-one .EEE The P.C.Y.S. Cadet Corps 1937 was an outstand- ing success. The battalion was well drilled by Capt. K Craig, who was assisted by Sergeant-major Frape. Because of the increased number of cadets it was decided to form a battalion. The senior officers were guests on two occasions of the Lindsay officers, once at a mess meeting and again at their inspection. The Lindsay ofiicers and their instructor were present at our inspection and also at one officers' mess. May 12 was an important date of 1937. The ofiicers, the bugle band and some of the cadets joined in the parade to celebrate the coronation of King George VI. Those who turned out for the parade were rewarded for their faithfulness by be- ing invited to the next olfiicers' mess. The inspection of the battalion was held on May 28, when the 357 cadets on parade were complimen- ted by Capt. de L. Panet, the inspecting ofiicer. Capt. de L. Panet stated that he observed a distinct improvement since 1936. We appreciate the aid given us on various occasions by Col. Dewart and the other officers of the Prince of Vlfales Rangers. Second in command was Major XV. Vlfheeler, with Cadet Majors MacMillan, Demos and Laing in command of A, B and C companies respectively. The I.O.D.E. shield was presented to B company, selected as best on parade. CAMERACLUB H. A. This year the Camera Club entered its eighth successful season. In the last few years, the number of members has been limited to fifty, because of the dark-room accommodation, and this year the mem- bership again reached that mark. The organization meeting was held on September 22, and the officers elected for this year's club were as follows: Honorary Presideizf , ,Mr. V. R. Henry President. ,. .. , ,John Hooper Vz'ce-President . . . Margaret Louden Secretary ,. .Bob Hamilton Treasurer . .. Bill Henry There is no need to recount the programs of the various meetings. Let it suffice to say that the junior members are now developing their own films, and producing excellent prints. The speakers at the meetings have been Mr. V. R. Henry, Mr. R. G. Corneil, and senior members of the club. This year the club was divided into two groups, junior and senior. A selection of prints submitted by all those who felt that they were experienced enough to belong to the senior club was judged by Mr. Henry, and if they showed that the photographer understood the basic facts of the camera, its use, and proper care in developing, the student was admitted to the senior group. Page F :fly-two Both signalling units were under the com- mand of Capt. J. Hooper. The first aid squad was thoroughly trained by Capt. J. Craig. The bugle band maintained its efficiency under the leadership of Capt. H. Davidson. Following the march past and the drill, a hollow square was formed and medals for shooting and cups for the officers were presented. The cups were donated by the Students' Council and presented by the president, George Hall. The D.C.R.A. rifle team obtained an average of 95fZ', while the Dominion Marksman won third place in the Dominion. This year practice is held Monday and Wednesday evening by Musketry Officer Mel- ville Le Gros. The school flag, presented by the Students' Coun- cil was paraded for the first time and served to arouse esprrit de corps. A route march completed the inspection. On the following Sunday, a fair proportion of the cadets attended church parade to St. John's Church. A picnic held at South Beach by the officers and N.C.O.'s concluded the activities of the cadet corps for another year. Mr. Craig and Rev. R. T. F. Brain were guests at the picnic, held on june 9. Our sincere wish is that the cadet corps may march on to a successful career in 1938. RALPH HAGERMAN A valuable piece of equipment was added in the form of a new Recamar 18. A smaller replica of the old recamar, it is a modern, portable camera, with the combined features of the plate and minia- ture cameras. This year the camera club handled the distribution of school stationery as well as the school Christmas cards. Both undertakings were successful, and both added to general interest in the club. We wish to thank Mr. Henry especially for the interest that he has shown in the club. As usual, he has directed the progress of the club throughout the year, and has again caught the interest and devotion of the amateur photographer of the school. J.

Tumer Climaxing years of endeavour, the P.C.I. rugby team finally suc- ceeded in achieving their objective by becoming the hrst team in the school's history to win a Provin- cial Championship. This unique accomplishment, as well as bring- ing honour to the coach and play- ers, is shared by the whole school, who with a line display of school spirit supported the team to the limit. P.C.I. opened this schedule by defeating a strong Oshawa squad on the local gridiron. It was a hard-fought game throughout with both teams displaying good form in spite of the short training season. The final score was 26-0 for the home team. For the next league game P.C.I. journeyed to Bowmanville. Here as always Peterborough were slow in starting, until they became ac- customed to the field. They came back strong in the second half to win by a score of 24-0. The return game with Oshawa Page Fiftyfour Senior Rugby All Hail the Victors! was much closer. Peterborough was considerably weakened by the absence of three regular players injured in practice. This, how- ever, seemed to strengthen the morale of the team, and they pull- ed through winning by a close score of 7-2. , The final game of the group was played with Bowmanville at River- side Park. Although there was nothing at stake, an interesting brand of rugby was displayed. Peterborough held an upper hand throughout and emerged victor- ious on the long end of a 29-O count. Interspersed through the sched- ule were two exhibition games to give the team practice and provide opportunities for experimenting. The game with Malvern Collegiate was played in a sea of mud, neither team having any pronounced edge on the play, although Malvern managed to secure two singles to win the game. P.C.I. fared better with Pickering College, Who, how- ever, scored'more points than any of the opposition up to this time. But the home team proved to have too great a variety of attack back- ed by a strong defence for Pickering to cope with, the final score being 35-5. The first of the playoffs was a sudden-death game for the Lake- shore group honours with the highly-touted Albert College team who, however, failed to live up to their high reputation, but offered stout opposition before dropping a 28-0 verdict. P.C.I. then advanced to the C.O.S.S.A. finals against Barrie. This was another sudden-death game played on neutral grounds- Toronto. This game produced many tense moments but once again the Garnet and Grey were successful with a close victory of 12-5. For the third time the goal was in sight. After much confusion in the arrangements for the game, Nicholls' Oval was finally selected as the site for the O.R.F.U. Senior Interscholastic Championship be- tween Runnymede Collegiate of Toronto and Peterborough Col- legiate. It was at this stage that the school demonstrated its ex- treme loyalty and support which was partly responsible for the splendid showing of the team at such a crucial time. This was the hardest-fought game of the season. A quick march down the field to a touchdown in the opening mo- ments of the game proved to be the necessary stimulus sufficient to drive the local collegians on to triumph. Runnymede pressed hard during the central session scoring three singles, but during the dying moments Peterborough surprised them with an onside kick which re- sulted in a touchdown that was converted. Runnymede did not threaten as seriously for the re- mainder of the game. NVith the final whistle P.C.I. led 11-3 to win the game and the Ontario Championship. A great deal of the credit is due to the coach, Mr. Bamforth, whose untiring efforts were responsible for turning out such a fine team. After several years of near cham- pions, he has at last achieved his long-sought goal. The help and interest shown by Dr. Clark, Dr. Neal, and Dr. Honey was greatly appreciated. The Big Apple The evening of December the tenth will long be remembered by those students who attended the special dance given by Dr. Kenner in honour of our Rugby Team winning the Ontario Champion- ship. Enthusiasm and excitement still ran high over the glorious victory won by our boys, and since the occasion demanded something more vigorous than stately waltz- ing, the evening was dedicated to the intricacies of The Big Apple. Toward the close of the evening there was hardly a student or teacher who had not been initiated into the mysteries of the newest craze of jeepin and Truckin. The enjoyment of the evening was greatly enhanced by music supplied by Hugh Davidson and his orchestra. EILEEN ScHoALEs At a banquet the city fathers very generously rewarded each member of the team with a leather windbreaker in the school colours. The Board of Education's kindness was reflected by a presentation of a lasting souvenir of the occasion in the form of handsome gold sig- net rings bearing a suitable in- scription. JIM HALL B. A. A.

The rugby team, which brought honour not only to our school but to the city is our greatest pride, although we expect our basketball teams to end their season in or near top position. The same is ex- pected from our hockey team whose present standing in the junior City League is quite pro- mising. The B.A.A. owes much of its success this year to the interest shown towards its undertakings by the following teachers: Mr. Bamforth, who combined strategy and patience, last fall. He work- ed with our team supported only by a handful of substitutes and brought to us the greatest athletic honour in the history of our school. He is endeavouring to repeat his stupendous feat by developing a championship basketball team. We offer our whole-hearted support and wish him the greatest success. Mr. Collingwood has devoted a great deal of his valuable time in advising our B.A.A. executive in their every step. Mr. Craig, who is again coach- ing the junior Basketball team with much well-earned success, arranged a very successful field day for all the boys of the school who wished to take part. Mr. jackson came to our school last fall and took over our Junior Rugby team. He has suc- ceeded in stirring up hockey en- thusiasm in the school and is now coaching a successful hockey team. Mr. R. D. Brown who helped to put over our rugby games deserves credit. By his interest he aroused our school to support the rugby teams and thanks to him and other teachers, never before has such school spirit been displayed and we hop it may continue. DONALD DUNCAN Page Fzlftyyive Hockey After many years of inactivity, the school became hockey-minded this season. Daily practices were held during the Christmas holidays. So numerous were the candidates that Coach jackson has a very hard job getting the squad down to working size. :U it by-Y 4 1 THE HOCKEY TEAM Back Rowi R Thornton, B. Parnell, E. Ward. G.

Mortimor A team was entered in the Junior City League and also in the Interscholastic C.O.S.S.A. series. But as we were too late in entering the latter, our efforts had to be confined to the City League. We opened the series with a loss of 3 to 2 against the Monarchs. We came right back with four straight victories against the Bombers, Canadians, St. Pete's, and All Saints which led us into the play- otfs against All Saints. Our team was really flying by then and won handily 6-4. They earned the right to meet the Monarchs for the League Cham- pionship. As The Echoes goes to press the hockey team awaits definite word as to the play-off dates. Win or lose, we will uphold the honour and spirit of P.C.V.S.

Moaizow Field Day Cihk Despite the rather cold weather there was a large number of participants in all the track and field events. The enthusiasm of the pupils and the keen competition showed clearly that field day this year was one of the most successful ever staged. There were three groups, divided as follows: junior-14 Page F ffl ji-six and underg Intermediate-1-1 to 163 Senior-16 and over. Silx er cups were presented at a morning assembly to the group champions: junior: Margaret lXIason Intermediate: Eleanor Irwin Senior: Mary MacPherson The A.

Due to these weath- er conditions no records were broken. Gerry Creighton won the senior championship with an aggregate of twenty-one points nosing out Ross Thornton by beating him to the tape in the 880. Ross collected nineteen points. Harlow Cutting, an intermediate, won the senior high jump by clearing 5 feet 3 inches and Stroyan Leith tied the junior 100 yard record of 2.1 seconds. Don Duncan won top honours in the Intermediate section with twenty-five points. The junior class was won by W. Hall with sixteen. DONALD DIPLOCK Senior Basketball Personell of the team: Mr. Bamfortlz: The coach who gives his time and energy in leading the team to its many victories. Flarence Dai'em.' A forward who always seems to know where the ball is going and gets there first. This is his last year in P.C.V.S., so the best of luck. Clarence scored 30 points during the iirst eight games. jack Dougherty: QDizJ Also a for- ward who works well on the pass ing plays and long shots. Diz's specialty is finding a better way to make difiicult shots. Harlow Cutting: A forward who makes the best of his shooting ability. His close-in shots, pass- ing, and long shots have helped him to obtain 59 points. Nelson Foster: A forward whose long shots and speed have given him 77 points. Nelson usually starts the scoring and adds the last basket of the game. Bill Turner: CSpudl Also a torward who has the knack of jumping up to the baskets for rebounds and then scoring them. He puts everything he has into the game and works exceptionally well with the team. He has obtained 46 points in eight games. 1 , SENIOR BASKETBALL TEAM: C.O.S.S.A.

This is Hymie's last year also. We hope you continue to have an interest in basketball. Ralph ,l0l1l15f0Il.' A running guard and captain. Scored 42 points in the lirst eight games. With only two more games to play and both of them home games it looks as though the district championship has already been won. The members of the team take this opportunity of thanking Mr. Bamforth for his time and splen- did coaching. Also the keen in- terest taken in the team by the teaching staff and the pupils is greatly appreciated by us. Once again Mr. Bamforth's Sen- ior Team has started off the season with a smart line up. The team has scored 278 points with only 112 points against them. P.C.V.S.

Play was very even all 'the way but in the second half P.C.I. went over for a touchdown to win 6-0. P.C.I. AT BOWMANVILLE. This was perhaps the best game of the year. P.C.I. played hard all the way but came out on the short end of a 2-1 score. LINDSAY AT P.C.I. Owing to the very muddy Held that day good rugby was impossible but P.C.I., spurred on by the taunts of the press, went out and defeated the highly-rated L.C.I. team by a score of 7-6. P.C.I. AT OSHAWA. Feeling vgry good after our win from Lindsay, P.C.I. went to play the return game with Oshawa. We were met by a very much improved team that showed its superiority by de- feating us 7-2. BOWMANVILLE AT P.C.I. This game was very close all the way but P.C.I. just failed to win by a few yards. Final score: Bowman- ville 7, P.C.I. 2. Page Fifty-eight JUNIOR RUGBY TEAM Back Row: B.

I Mr. Craig-:With but two of last year's players with which to form the nucleus of a team, he has rounded out a team which we hope will be a credit to him. KEN GILLESPIE P.C.I. AT LINDSAY. In Lindsay we met our worst defeat of the season at the hands of a very strong Lindsay team. The score was 28-0 for Lindsay. Nuff said! This game ended the schedule with Bowmanville on top. Con- gratulations to them! During the season P.C.I. played two games with Lakefield High School and two with Grove Seniors. By every man being a Simpson, Grove were able to defeat us in both games but by very small mar- gins. Against Lakefield High we had better luck and won both games. We were very glad to see Dwyer, Elliot and Scriver graduate to senior company after the junior schedule was over. It is hoped that many more of the juniors will be seen under Mr. Bamforth's guiding hand in future years. Great credit must be given to our coach, Mr. jackson, for the work and time he put forth in try- ing to form a winning team from a group of fellows, some of whom had never played rugby before. Here's hoping for better luck next year. KEN GILLESPTE GIRLS' ATHLETICS Basketball Isabel lfl'ray.' Because of her fine personality and her over power ing ability as a player, she was elected Captain of the team. Her speed on the Hoor combined with her hefty passes makes her the best guard we hai e. l'l'iIda Samzders: Babs is a regular forward, who although one of the shortest on the team is one of the fastest. Her long shots are so accurate that we can place Babs at the top of the shooting list. Doris Clover: GuardwShe plays such a good defense game that even the best of forwards has a hard time to get by. Linden Reed: Guard-This is Linden's first year as a regular player. N o member of the team has proved more capable of handling the ball than Linden. as many baskets for the team.

Helen Beafty: DefensevThis is Helen's first year with the team. She lills her position well and will make a strong player next year. Ruth Dalliday: Alternate guard and forward has proved reliable in both positions. Ruth, also a newcomer to the team, will Betty Mliddf6'l0ll.'

Executive Among the various phases of our school life, physical culture in its dillerent branches holds a prom- inent place. Early in September nominations were made for the offices of the Girls' Athletic As- sociation and the executive elected as follows: Honorary Presfdezzt--Miss Dorothy Brisbin President-Mary Macpherson lf z'ce-Pre5z'de11teBerle Johnston Secretary-Doris Glover Treasurer-Irene Gandy The Gym Display A new venture which proved very successful was the Gym Display which was instituted in the school last year. It was re- ceived with such enthusiasm by both parents and girls that in the future it will be an annual affair. Its success was due to the able direction of Miss Brisbin and Miss Bailey and also to the splendid co- operation given by the girls. The program consisted of gymnastics, games, and folk dances, demon- strated by the various forms. The Gym Display closed with the sing- ing of the school song, which was composed by the pianist, Mrs. Foster. Wiener Roast Immediately after school on the 14 of October, 1937, a large num- ber of girls could be seen hurrying down to the gym to take part in the Wiener Roast presented an- nually by the Girls' Athletic As- sociation. There were about three hundred girls present, all of Whom enjoyed themselves immensely. Games and contests, under the supervision of Miss D. Brisbin and Miss INI. Bailey, formed the major part of the program. This was followed by supper Cconsist- ing of wieners and ice-creaml, dur- ing which a merry sing-song, led by Gwen Bond, was held. The program closed with a Grand March and the vigorous rendition of the school yells. Badminton This year a Badminton Club was formed by the G.A.A. in the school. Each Friday and Satur- day afternoon a lively crowd ap- pears in the gymnasium to play this new and fascinating game. As yet it is not quite in full swing but we hope to form an interesting club which will long take a place in the athletic activities of the school. This year's executive includes: Captain-Isabel Wray Secretary-Wilda Saunders Treasurer-Joan Ottewell MARY MACPHERSON Volleyball The interform volleyball games proved very successful again this year. In the Vocational School III Form Commercial played Spec- ial Commercial for the right to play the winners in the Academic school. Although defeated by a score of 17-15, Special Commercial deserves praise for their cleditable showing as they do not take P.T. and had no opportunity to prac- tise. In the Academic school the hefty VA team defeated IIIA by a score of 31-8. In the final game Academic VA proved the superior team and downed Commercial III by a score 27-11 to win the interform cham- pionship.

BRICKBATS VOL. 24 PETERBOROUGH COLLEGIATE AND VOCATIONAL SCHOOL 15 PAGES STARTLING E POSE OF FIFTHS FORM V A THREATENS LIBEL SUIT Reporter Goes Into Hiding To sit down to write the V A Form News, and banish all thoughts of Fifty Years Hence and V A in Ninety B.C. is in- deed difficult. There is, however one good reason for so doing. As a matter of fact, it would be heartless to speak of what was to become of the members of our form, but to write it would be to set down fair grounds for a libel suit. It might also be said that it is out of respect for the feeble life which guides this pen that I refuse to dig up the buried fsomewhat poorly, in some casesl past of these same budding citizens. Did I say citizens? Well, not of Peterborough, we hope, al- though can't you imagine Si Park as Mayor, with a council of such gentlemen CD as Ken Gates, Bill Cranford, Bill Mc- Kinlay, and the like? One might be afraid it would be a long and tedious meeting, how- ever, if Councillor K. Gates were allowed to propound his lengthy and pun-spattered ar- guments. Especially so if such argumentative minds as Bill Cranford were allowed to con- tinue his points. But there I go, off on that VA's Future tack again. There is but one great ob- stacle to the progress of this otherwise blossoming form. Somewhat obscure, perhaps to those of us who do not tag along with the form all day, neverthe- less it is visibly reflected in the sad and morose faces of those poor students who come into close contact with it. As a mat- ter of fact, it has been the sub- ject of a good deal of thought on the part of the great thinkers of the form, and Le Penseur Dick has immortalized it in the form of an epic poem.

As I walk- ed along looking at the forty-six storey building on the corner of Charlotte and George Street CEaton'sD, I bumped accidently into the tall, handsome Tom Hooper. We decided to walk along together. I also noticed that Tom raised his hat and had a pleasant smile for all the ladies who passed. He was still the heart-throb. During the conversation which ensued, we quite naturally be- gan to talk about the days of 1938 in our old form VB. Tom was able to supply me with in- formation about the boys, and I in turn was to tell him about the girls. This was one way of keeping track of our class mates. He told me that Lloyd Louden had become a doctor. Can't you imagine him pulling out your appendix? Horace Steer had blossomed into a wild cow- boy, but he still liked to ride in the moonlight on quiet roads, Funny things happen sometimes. Can you imagine Hagerman af- ter spending all those years at P.C.I., manufacturing dolls? As we crossed the downtown inter- section, just humming with noise, who should be standing in the centre of a traffic jam but our old pal Pettersone? He was actually wearing a policeman's uniform with white gloves on IOO. Then I began my part of the conversation. I couldn't help but tell him about the fifth form love-birds.

The club was formed so we could have the fun of run- ning a club instead of a common and dry Oral Composition per- ind. Miss Bailev was the founder of the club and the first meetings were carried on under manage- ment of Mr. T. McMillan as Chairman, Mr. A. Lockington as Secretary and Mr. J. Easton holding the permanent job of treasurer. Other chairmen and secretaries throughout the year were as fol- lows: Chairm en Secretaries Mr. Whiteside Mr. Walling Mr. Easton Mr. Carter Mr. Andrews Mr. R. Francis All members of the class acted as bankers, manufacturers, busi- ness men and what-have-we. All the class competed in a contest to see who could give the best talk in the term. A collection had been taken up in class for prize money to buy any book that the winners wish- ed. Mr. Grose Mr. L. Clancy grabbed first prize with his talk of What keeps a plane in the air, and Mr. Doc Turnbull ran a close second with an address on Diesel engines. Class Room Gossip Pro. T. Corneil, the mad scientist of the Vocational School has just completed and patented his wonderful invention for Scotch Teachers, The Torch Special, a guaranteed fool- proof ink-well. The Pro. claims that it is im- possible for any student to place blotters, bits of paper or any substances into the ink and humanly impossible to remove anything including ink. The Pro. has also been experi- menting with a work-less solu- tion for dishwashing. In doing dishes the Pro. way, use a solu- tion of Potassium Chloride, Sodium Cyanide and dechlorodi- tinoronetene in any solution ratio, and dishes are dumped in- to this.

Mar- garet jackson is a professional nurse. Can't you imagine her taking your temperature and cooling the fevered brows? Betty White had taken the high road to knowledge by taking Miss Montgomery's place at P.C.V.S. We all remember Lenore Lewis, the songster of morning assem- blies. She is now taking Kate Smith's place on a radio pro- gramme. Glen Allen and Cor- ona Hanbridge have both done well. Glen is a Hootchv Koot- chy dancer, and Corona an artist's model. If you just turn the pages of any fashion book you will see Noreen McAllister posing in a stunning bathing suit. You will find it has a soothing effect on the eyes. I Hutfy would like to know how Francis can sit next the Pro. desk and get over 90 in an exam without being caught copying. E. P. was quite astounded the other day, to find that Arleigh Murray is a fan dancer in an exclusive night club. As we passed the Examiner Bulletin board, I saw that Isabel Wray was well on her way to fame in the six day bicycle race. Dorothy Smith and Phvllis Nesbitt are beauti- ful mannequins for Paris gowns. Beryl Franks surprised everyone by eloping with a handsome mil- lionaire. Verna Allen is very much up in the air-a hostess on an air-liner. I also heard that she flirts with the pilot. As we passed one of the many little oflices near East Avenue, I hap- pened to notice a great big sign with PSYCHIATRIST on it. You know, one of those people who try to tell you what your mind is made of. And then in one corner, in very insignificant letters was Helen Latimer's name. Now can you figure that one out? Just then who should come tripping out of the office but Helen Miller and a whole brigade of Pekinese? Now I wonder what she was doing in a place like that? Now Tom just couldn't pass a peanut store. And do you know, the clerk was Phyllis Dawson? Well Tom, I must leave you now, I've got a date at the Town Hall, and I guess I don't have to tell you what for. D. W.

Editors-M. Hooper, l. Whalon, A. Gallagher MARCHii938 or vol.. 24 VVith a sigh we see the last piece of copy leave for the printers. Gladly we turn to our well-earned rest, only to find that the worst is yet to come. The editorial has to be written. Thirteen inches must be filled with readable matter. Well, we've filled them, but as to the second stipulation, we have very serious doubts. Although several schools have been using the newspaper form for School News, Sports, etc. this is the first time it has been used in The Echoes, and there has been a great deal of work entailed in the change. A large amount of any credit which this section merits is due to the able assistance of our three co-workers-Margaret Hooper, Iris Whalon, and Alice Gallagher. Regarding the change, the comments of the student body are invited-favourable or otherwise-and if this section is continued in the same manner next year, they may be printed in this column, thereby saving the editor a great deal of trouble by filling up a space that this year she has to cover with her own comments. First Forms To give a new twist to an old tale-- The first forms we have always with us, but what a disappointment they are this yearl Not only have they changed their name to Ninth Forms, but they are a dreadfully precocious crowd, rarely doing things that a first form is expected to do Csuch as losing their way eight times a dayj. They have failed dismallv to give rise to the usual crop of Have you heard about the Frst form that .,,. P , jokes that usually predominate during thc first term. There is just one way in which you can tell that they are first formers, and that is, they get their form news in on time. But they'll get over that-all the other forms have. Seriously, however, we consider the new first year course to be of great value to the pupil. It is a well known fact that there are a great many mislits in both sides of the school, and this mixed course seems to be a practicable way of solving the difficulty. A pupil is able to see just what subjects he excels in, and can continue accordingly, thus perhaps saving several years that otherwise would be wasted. Perennials It was our aim this year to give you something new and startling, but some of the old perennials crept in- A day in form so and so, form so and so fifty years from to-day,', etc. Indeed, as one frantic reporter exclaimed, there wouldn't be any form news without them.

The school will very soon be taking on the appearance of a barracks, if all reports are true, for there arc no less than 12 musketeers in our midst! Count them for yourself. If anyone would ask us what is the most popular word in the dictionary, we would say illustrious After cutting it about fifty times, we finally gave it up as a bad job and shut our eyes when we came to it.

We have a very excel- lent form this year with a num- ber of highlights. The girls won the Junior Volleyball cham- pionship, the boys organized two hockey teams and have be- gun to play games, two editors for The Echoes were chosen from our ranks, but wait till you hear about the pupils! I did not think any form could possibly have a person that can come late, forget his books, mis- place his locker key, and come without his spelling done all in ONE DAY. But it takes IIB to produce such a specimen. Though Ken Bolam gets good marks in bookeeping, don't be fooled. His ambition is to be another Walter Winchell. A-tish-oo! This is Dr. Ken- ner's advice to all, if you wish to pronounce S-c-h-i a-r-i-z-z-a. If you see a fellow in a blue suit looking moonstruck, it's only George Easton putting his heart and soul into his Advice to the Lovelorn column. But it really takes Catharine White to do something dramatic. The other day she announced Qbetween coughing spellsl that she had swallowed a nail, thus ins Phenomenal Pupil causing great consternation a. mong pupils near enough to hear. Then Katie held up a badly shorn finger and announced I bit it off, and accidentally swal- lowed it, and now it's stuck go- ing down! The inkwell in Chamberlain's desk always seems empty. Can it be that the Modern Miracle drinks it? Instead of saying Hello , Dorothy Symonds says, Howdy Stranger. Try as we may we can't break her of this habit ac- quired for our Literary Meeting. As usual, the flame of genius burns brightest in the weaker sex. Our gifted poetess, Moira Whalon, regales us with selec- tions from her repertoire at every opportunity. Our only regret is that we haven't space to print the gems of her collec- tion. Newsy Note for Nosey News- Hawks: This year IIB started their own class magazine called Buzzes of Two Bees !

This is much to the detriment of Miss Smith, who cares not a little about Georgie We have on the girls' side a GIRL LEADS GI RAFFE DOW III D Through the Glass Someone gives me a subtle delinition of a reporter-with bravado I repeat it: 'A reporter is somebody who does not do anything himself, and when somebody else does, he goes and tells other people about it. Well spoken, who- ever you are. and someday we'll think up a biting definition of an Echoes reader. Oh, well, on with the news. If the Junior Girls Basketball team did lose their lirst game, it was not for the want of blondes. This form is well represented in that team by Goldie Shaw. She is also the G.A.A. represen- tative. Earle Routly is a member of the Students' Council as well aS of the hockey team. Bob Gar- ner is on the Echoes staff and is the B.A.A. representative. Shortly after Christmas, Bill was overheard speaking to jack Roper. What is your impres- sion of harmony, Jack? jack said, A girl wearing a polka dot dress leading a giraffe down main street in a dust storm. Still peering through the glass it is possible to see Bud Miller either studying history or mak- ing a sketch of some member of the fairer sex. Smiling Smed- SPECIAL COMMERCIAL fC0ntinued from page 611 that they won't shine in pub- ic. Recent reports from Holly- wood show that our ambitious quartette, the Misses Jean Fow- ler, Isabel Conroy, Helen and Louise Hickey, is gradually climbing the ladder of success with a new version of the Big Apple. Betty Jack has turned out to be the class heroine. She saved our reputation by unearthing, at the minute, a very humorous skit for the Lit programme, which, to quote Mr. Shearer, went over with a bang. Page Sixty-eight Betty Detcher, our German fiend, startles us saner minded individuals by popping out with a lengthy story. Speaking of foreign languages, Beatrice Ma- hood confides that there is on language like shorthand for your diary. Now for the weather reports: the calm in the vicinity of Special Commercial lockers caus- ed by the entrance of Julia Dew- art and Beth Stewart, nos mademoiselles les plus gentilles, was suddenly changed into a violent hurricane. This pecu- liar phenomenon was about to be investigated when, lo! and behold! Miss Wolfe reached her locker and the hurricane ceased. mor is likely doing extra algebra homework. Some people think Wolfe should have been a fox because he is so sly. On the other side of the room is Our Second Deanna, Mary Robson, who sang a solo at the Literary meeting. Shirley Zacks must be on the advertising staff of the XVrigley Gum Company. This form has made several unsuccessful attempts to have debates for Composition but the same thing seems to hold it up each time-a suitable subject. I suggest they resolve whether or not it was necessary to use a glass to find any news in Form IIID Academic. KIDNAPPING PLANNED II A Commercial Contains Potential Kidnappers As it is my duty to tell you all the news of II A Commercial, I shall try to do so in as interest- ing a way as I can. I inter- viewed several of the celebreties in the form. My first interview was with Miss Inez Killoran, the noted singer of Irish Ballads, particularly When Irish Eyes Are Smiling. Miss Killoran is very gay and like all Irish people very witty. My next interview was with the chorus girlsg Irene Forsythe, Dorothy Mitchell Janet Kearns, Mary Campan- aro, Doris Downer, Hazel Hunt and Frances Latimer. They are all great kids and their one am- bition is to grab off a rich guy, which is nice work if you can get it. Audrey Murray and Adeline Morrocco, the famous tap dan- cing team, were also on my list of Who's Who. but owing to the number of their male admirers I was unable to get near them. Alice Gallagher and Shirley Brown, the president and the This completes this year's resume of Special Commercial's news. We shall not be with you again next year! We hope! T. T. FOUND IN IX I very promising young singer, namely, Miss Pitchford. Our globe trotters are Miss Newman and Robert Roy, both having travelled to England last summer. Miss Newman is a Girl Guide and Roy a Boy Scout. A perfect pairfj Don't you think? There are two of our boys on the Junior Rugby Team, Mc- Pherson, who plays outside and quarter, and McWilliams who plays inside. McDermitt, Rutherford, Mac- Claren and Margeratt are po- tential stamp-collectors. The wood-makers are Meeks and Margeratt, while Richard- son is our man-about-town, and Moore the night-hawk. Miss Parkhill is improving her writing to a great extent. Keep up the good work. Miss Rahmel seems to have a good chance to win the Penmanship Prize. Our sole representative to the Camera Club is Mills, and O'- Donnel is the only member, from our form, of the West Enders' Hockey Team. Ode to Rupert: Am he gone? Haw he went? Has him left I all alone? Can I never go to he? Can he never come to I? Oh! it cannot was. Misses Park, Plumpton, Pepe, and Plunkett, form part of the alliteration in the form, also Misses Nesbitt, Nolan, Nichols. The attempted whoopee by Messrs. O'Brien, Roberts, O'- Toole and O'Brien in a certain class had better cease lest an ear be inclined their way. C. N. secretary of the Literary Society, were very gracious. As they were, however, in a big hurry, Cas usualj, I wasn't talking to them long. Alice G. refuses to talk about a certain violin play- erg hence I didn't get much in- formation from her. Our Girl Companion Bureau, consisting of Mary Conlin, Eil- een Collins, and jean Carter, af- forded another interesting inter- view. These girls are hired for five dollars a night by some lone- ly forlorn chap who wants to see the town. Here's your chance boys. They all like their work and who wouldn't? Ruth Mor- den, the great orator, refused me an interview. Doris Bradley and Madeline Gilgour, the sew- ing girls, gave me a demonstra- tion of their work, and I must say they're going places. Miss Ruth Dalliday, the noted girl athlete, has deservedly won many medals. Keep going, Ruth! Well, since this is all the space I have, I must end my interviews. B. M. FORM Nisws, P.C.V.S., 1938 9 SECRETS or SCIENCE UNFOLDED III B Ungrateful Most intelligent readers, al- low me to present for your enter- tainment our illustrious form, although I am afraid I cannot do justice to such a dillicult task as this. As the nine o'clock bell rings there is usually a rush of a few stragglers and always the three Musketeers, Rogers, juby, and Carlisle, trying to beat the i nal bell by a few seconds. In Literature classes we tried very hard to carry back our minds to the times of those illustrious writers of the dim ages. Those who forget their books either sit with their friends or go to sleep thinking of the long hours to come before school is over. During the Chemistry periods, the secrets of science are un- folded to us by our teacher, Mr. Graham. We all have oppor- tunities to try experiments for ourselves, trying to get results that are often very hard to find. Many times we either break the apparatus or in some other way spoil the experiment, much to the disgust of Mr. Graham. As we trudge our weary way along the halls to the History period again, it is necessary to travel back on the wings of time to learn of the daring and im- portance of our fore-fathers in Canadian History. In this period, some are catching up on lost sleep, while others are dili- gently trying to remember what they had prepared the night be- fore. The next period, French, Miss Montgomery tries very hard to instil into us some of the line points of French, both in grammar and translation. Dur- ing Composition periods, Miss Howson endeavours to remind us to bring either an essay or a book statement that she has asked for some time back. Ger- ald Juby and Mr. Zavitz usually go to work on another solution for a problem that has already been worked at the board. The other mathematical subject is Algebra, through the difficulties of which we are guided by Mr. C. S. Browne. The girls of the form go to Miss Brisbin for P.T., while the boys go to Mr. Bam- forth to be put through a num- ber of exercises that will either make or break them eventually. Latin, the last subject on the list we think, especially the double period on Tuesday after- noon. When I recall how most of our thoughts travel back to the time of the Romans, what we could do to them I shall not place on paper. The four o'- clock bell sounds to end what some person has said to be one of the happiest and carefree days of our lives. I am sure we all agree with that person.

I'pon entering the classroom open all windows. This chills the room, opens tht- thermostats and robs the room of needed heat. 2. Be cheerful. When in dif- ficulties, whistle. It shows that you have nothing on your mind. 3. Keep in shape physically. Practice broken-field running by galloping down a crowded cor- ridor. -I. When going around a corner, cut in close and accelerate. You will find you can bump twice as many people by this method. 5. Stay in the corridor until the bell rings and see if you can en- ter the room before it stops. You will find this a fascinating game.

Do your Maths. in the English period, your French and Latin in the Physiography period and so on. You will thus lend variety to a monotonous life and show great individuality. 7. Don't be enthusiastic. If you know the answer to a ques- tion refrain from raising your hand. Let those do so who don't know the answer. This makes the class interesting. C. H. PICKPOCKET TAKES CAKE Poet Praises II B Miss Moore looks over her gaudy class, Wondering if any of them will pass. They are such dunces and such saps, And they have all such homely maps. A description of them I shall try to give, How can such specimens of man- hood live? Marshall is tall, broad, freckled and red. Dorothy Cathcart is sure well fed. Taylor and Miss Edmonds are a romantic pair, have been imparted in a more dignified manner, but that's the way with Dummitt. Great laugh- ter-followed by Miss Howson. Come, come, children, don't laugh at the poor child's intir- mityf' Eleanor Doyle should certain- ly be awarded a medal for her tests in the cooking room. She promoted an idea in surgery that no doctors have ever yet attemp- ted. In her paper she stated that the use of fat in the body was to grease the lungs. The in- formation will be very useful to the medical profession. Our girls' athletic work this season was somewhat abbrevi- ated. We had a relay team. It was a good team, a splendid team. When the great day came for the relay race, three of the members relayed altogether. That left only two on the team. and for that reason we say it was abbreviated. BECQMES TYPEWRITER The nurse must have cracked a joke over the cradle of Kenneth Elliot, for he has been laughing ever since. If you see somebody coming down the hall with a tread like a plough horse, it's not Harold Lloyd but Lloyd Crane. There is much in a name. It sometimes means more than size. Dr. Dafoe and Norris are both small. Norma Elcombe believes in a machine age. Everything she does runs like clock-work. Her highest aspiration, so she says, is to be a typewriter. She didn't say whether Remington or Un- derwood. Mary Darling is timid and shy, but She'll be somebody's darling by and by. Sylvia Duignan can use her feet as well as her head. She ac- quires fame as a tap-dancer even though she does sometimes for- get her can-z'er-sa-tzi-on. Betty Estlick and her brother may be affectionate and think the world of each other, but when they meet on the stairs, she glares at him like a lion- tamer, and he glares back like the lion. C.C. jean Cox is the girl with the Mae West hair. Gable Constable likes going to shows, Walter Morrow has a long red nose. Corbett and Stanley are photog- raphers fine, Chate is the guy who can string the line. Andy Scott is our muscular man, Wally Crouter is a II-C fan . CF. MJ When it comes to pick-pocket- ing, Sproule takes the cake, And McKnight for the girls is very good bait. Chalmer Gillespie is a hit with the girls. Wilson Henry is the lad with the curls. Ferguson and Merret love go- ing to school, Madeline Spence is aloof and cool. fCOI1fI'NllPd on page 74, 'E cAMPI3EI.I.'s DAIRY PRODUCTS PASTEURIZED MILK, CREAM, BUTTER BUTTERMILK, ICE CREAM If It's Campbell's It's Creamy VITAMIN D MILK Phones : 2210 - 2211 Page Sc-I'rIIiy Foam Nliws, HOMEWORK BUREAU ESTABLISHED IN IIC Form 2 C Acadmic seems to have an epidemic Of feminine frivolity this year, For each bewildered laddie must be driven nearly gaddy By two'n a quarter lady- friends, we hear, Of whispers and chatters who could talk a doll to tatters We have our share-Miss Ashby and lVIiss Waite.

Roade, and his side hitch, Wel- bourne, are always seen talking to girls in the halls. Strange as it seems, you never see them with the same girls twice.

MIRACLES HAPPEN IN IX D We have gone far enough into 1938 to know that it holds bitter sweet for us. The bitter part is our reports and the sweet is our skating party. We skated grace- fully Cor otherwiseb around All Saints Rink and then had our refreshments at Marguerite Grose's home. I think Bernice Greatrix would like to skate like Sonja Henie. Isn't she original? We could write a book about our class, but time and space do not permit it. Leslie Graham really rivals the sunset with his blush. If you have a good imagination Vou can picture Al- don Gourley and Eric Gladwin appearing studious. Then we hear the six School-Girlateers, Greta Harvey, Gladys Gally, Hannah Florence, Audrey Fer- guson and Edna Greir. Don Ford, Don Flett and Davis Graham are in the orches- tra. I guess the age of miracles has not ended yet. There are the F owlies-V enice and Gerald, or if we are too early, they are just not there! Then there is Leslie Fife, who has Miss I-Iick's permission to talk in classroom. Really, don't you think it might be wise to let Doreen Hill ask questions? She might make a good lawyer someday. There also are those who work railway time, stops included, but we won't be personal. Then there is Fannie Gishruan, our little big girl and our diminutive play- boy, Bill Greatrix.

This trip will be mostly a sight-seeing tour. GUM DINTS WASTE BASKET IX G Restful QQ Form Even if teachers do claim IX G is a restful form, we do have our good points, mostly in the form of thumb-tacks and some straight pins. One of our teachers, Miss Park, to be sure, is still peeved, but how was Tony to know that his gum would dint her waste paper basket. A few of the political members of the form haven't reached an agreement yet as to which of the members would be most sur- prised if Jack Perry failed to ask for a slight loan until the fol- lowing Tuesday. We don't know how shocked Miss O'Connell would be if Phyllis Marshall did bring her Composition book for a change' Another mystery of the form is why, when Harold McAdams has to stay in after school, the agent for the Keene bus should call for him when he doesn't even live in that direction? Who said they didn't like Science? just watch Muriel McCarrell and Bob Parnell per- form experiments with Mr. Cor- neil's new inkwells. Let someone ask why Mr. Richardson gives Marion Mac- key a reserved seat, why Miss Bailey advises Katy McTeage to specialize in ballet dancing for a stage career, and why Jack Moore is so partial to American Beauty collars and ties.

S. A. KING IN FORM IX E There are two boys who keep us posted in the radio world. Stroyan Leith and Ken King are especially good in this line of work. Jim Joiner is doing a little boxing these days. Does that account for the battle scars? Two important characters in IX F are the Lockie twins who are always good little girls. CNote -except when they are notlj Loomis is the form representa- tive when it comes to herring fishing. If Harry Leahy would wake up and live in the French class we would probably lie down and die. Not many forms can boast of a King in their midst. Vive le Roi! Everyday we look anxiously to see if by any chance Miss Leonard has both her Books and her P. T. outfit, if Miss Beryl Lee has grown any overnight, if Miss Johnston really and truly has her gum, and if Lupton's moustache has caught up on him. Tom Lillico must drive his mother crazy asking her ques- tions. A recent debate shows that it would not pay to get into an argument with Teressa Laws or Colin Jack. We have discovered that al- though Connie Lewis seems to hear nothing, see nothing, and say nothing, she can caricature everybody to some purpose. The first week of the nevi term began all right till the second period Monday morning. IX j.'S FINANCES TEMPT THIEF Yes, it's a well known fact that our Mathematics are very good. Why someone actually scored sixteen, and somebody else made twenty-eight. In Physical Training when Miss Bailey gives the order, Balls in the corner, half the class starts to move. But as most of us are of the same build fhard to pierce and hollow inside, it doesn't make much difference. Sage and Scott really ought to be examined to find out where they obtained the sense of hum- our, for in every class we enter they have to sit down on thumb tacks. We are beginning to wonder if it's as innocent as it appears. We have now ceased to worry as to how Mr. . . came to be married, for we have found that he has just the right touch when paying compliments. Miss . . ., and Miss , , ex- change a paper on which was a beautiful OD girl. Mr. ,. , inquired who the beautiful lady was. One of the Miss Wilsons men- tioned to me that Jack Sackville took nine and one-half in shoes. CHow did she find out FD In the last few days there has been great discussion and a lot of deep thinking on the part of the pupils. This great endeavour was made in favour of the party the form has decided to have. We have been going on a sleigh ride, a skiing and tobogganing party, and skating on the canal, but after three periods debating, we have decided to have a skat- ing party and go to Mrs. Tel- ford's for refreshments. We ex- pected about tive to turn out un- til they heard there were to be eats. To this same party a young gentleman, called Westlake has been assigned to bring about 25 or 30 apples. We are thinking of hiring Cooney's Transport to help him along. We have so much money we really ought to consider a bank account - fifteen cents might tempt a thief. However: We may be foolish and funny And we may not have any money But 'zoe'll travel along Singing a song All day long. B. W. Ever since then we have been living in dread for fear some one should point a finger at us and say we failed. Well, there is one consolation, we don't have any more headaches till Easter, but when we look at the calen- dar, we see Easter is not far away. Speaking on behalf of the pupils of IX F, we wish you 111 the best of luck in the com- ing year. J. L. Page Sevenly-three COMPLIMENTS OF Canadian Nashua Paper Co. Ltd. PETERBOROUGH, ONT.

In fact, in Lon- don a determined effort was made in parliament to check the noises, smells, vibrations, smoke and noxious gases caused by the rapidly increasing use of motor cars. Property owners complained oi the sleep-destroying racket, dust, cracked plaster, and reduced rentals, besides the ever constant danger of being run down by one of these speeding vehicles. CI might mention here that the speed limit in Lon- don at that time was live miles an hourj. A few models carried a rumble seat behind the rear seat, for the chauffeur. pu PHDNE For a while, electric cars were very popular. These I ,FDR were run on batteries which had to be recharged at - I T I least every seventy tive miles. They were capable ' of a top speed of twenty miles an hour. Gasoline service stations were unknown. Gas was purchased fd chiefly in large quantities, and stored by the car owners in large storage tanks under the ground. A CHAS. H.

They certainly wrapped themselves up like Egyptian mummies. The well-dressed man wore long leather gloves which came almost up to his elbows, a fur- lined auto coat, high boots, a muffler, a fur cap and goggles. The women wore even more. Their fur- lined boots came almost up to their knees. In really cold weather, they put on a robe sack that looked as cumbersome as a modern sleeping bag. Thirty years ago, spare tires were often carried in boxes. Imagine the feelings of the 1908 motorist who, when stopped by a blowout, nine miles from any- where, made the awful discovery that his wife had utilized his spare tire box to accommodate her latest hat, a 36 inch by 5 inch creation from Paris. The people of Peterborough were fortunate in having one of these ancient cars in their midst until last year when Mr. Petit very reluctantly traded in his faithful old Studebaker, for a 1937 model. It was reported to be the oldest car in Peterborough still in running order. Use OUR N R G BRAND With Any Slimming Diet Purity Bakeries Ltd.

I was hurrying along the path and-. You tripped over a treeerootf' supplied the Master. You really should watch where you're going, he added somewhat ungraciously, to defend himself against the onslaught of those blue eyes. D'you think you can walk? or shall I carry you? We'll go to the cottage and fix that head. With his help, and the encouragement of Mac- Gregor, She succeeded in reaching the cottage. The Master found himself annoyingly thrilled at putting his arm about her waist. The dressing of the cut, which was not as had as it looked, involved the handling of the red hair which curled itself delight- fully about his fingers. Decidedly, this disturbance must be removed as soon as possible. But he was tired and hungry and MacGregor was demanding his long-delayed supper in no uncertain terms. And so the Master sat down opposite the prettiest girl he had ever seen and one of the first he had ever really looked at. MacGregor was frankly and unashamedly con- quered. He sat as close as possible to the divinity's feet and accepted bits of buttered toast with the air of a courtier receiving favours of a queen. MacGregor seems to approve of you, remarked the Master morosely, to hide his own growing ap- proval. Maybe it's because we're blood-brothers-or something. You see, I'm a MacGregor too-jean MacGregor. MacGregor thumped his tail in abandoned delight, jean MacGregor smiled and the Great American Novel faded unobtrusively into the background. Well, said the Master, I suppose I'll have to take you home, and he flung open the door. An ominous sound met his ears, the sound of angry Waves lashing the shore. The light breeze of the afternoon had become a strong wind and the lake was now too rough for even the sturdiest canoe to brave with any hope of safety. Moreover, it was beginning to rain. He returned to the kitchen. How's your repu- tation? he asked casually. Will it stand a night on an island with a strange man? I'm afraid you're stuck here.', I shall probably lose what little reputation I still possess in these parts. What about yours? There are three bed-rooms,', said the Master, With excellent beds. Take your choice and a couple of blankets. You'll find them in that cup- board. MacGregor watched the preparations with ap- proval, and When bed-time came, lay down in the dining-room, Where he could keep guard over both his Master and Mistress. Voice on phone: John can't come to school to-day. He's sick. Doctor Kenner: W'ho's speaking? Voice: This is my father.

I love the way you stay in and entertain guests! Wendy wrenched her harness viciously. No Wonder you were so ready to call it off! You lied, and I didn't, returned the gentleman in righteous indignation. Well, he is a guest, and if he wanted to go ski- ing, could I help it? Suddenly the funny side struck Wendy, as it usually did, and she began to laugh. There was snow running down Dave's neck, however, and he failed to see the humor of the situation. Disillusioned, he set off down the hill alone. Wendy watched him for a second, then, with a curious expression of determination on her face, she followed. just as she had almost overtaken him she fell. Dave! Ooh, Dave! My ankle! Horrified, our hero hastened to her side. With trembling lingers, he undid her harness and boots. He begged her to move her foot, to see if the ankle were broken. Wendy winced pitifully. It hurts terribly! Have you the car here? May- be we could get to it. He did have the car, just at the bottom of the slope, and by half-walking, half-leaning on his arm, she reached it. 'kNoW what'll we do? There are Dudley and Pat over there- they won't want to stop yet-it's only nine o'clock, he observed as hc placed her in the front seat. I know! I've got a brainwavelu He looked at Wendy, who was bravely trying to conceal the pain her ankle was causing her. She was a plucky girl! She waited expectantly for the brainwave. I'll take you home and we can leave those two- they seem to be getting along very well! I'1l tell them now and go back for our skis, if you're sure you'll be all right. Wendy assured him that all was well, and he left in high glee. He felt he was very lucky. Wendy, of course, had no idea, but he was just hoping some- thing would happen to bring them together again. Back in the car, Wendy powdered her nose, sat back in her seat and sighed contentedly. A sphinx- like smile curved her lips. She was just wondering if there were such a thing as a sprained ankle with no swelling! Frances Smith: Let's skip classes and go to a show. i Clara Saunders: Can't do it, Fran. I need the sleep.

Behind Prinfel-I5 Ink Cforzfhzzaed from Page 23, At the age of five the young lad went to school and got his first 'black eye.' He came home crying, expecting sympathy. But here was none. ASCII., said his Dad, 'you're not a man if you can't take it.' In High School, the bruises of rugby were marks of glory and to the Dad, they were reasons for pride. Physically, the boy headed the list, mentally, he headed it with three fold scholarships. That meant College! Laurie's Voice was tired. He wanted to be a success, to graduate with the highest honours possible-for his Dad. And yet, to leave him back home and start a new life alone, was a hard pill to swallow. For a fellow who has had a pal for fifteen years, some one he can talk to when he wants to talk, with whom he can sit and be completely, silently happy when he is less in- clined to speak, it was like taking the solid earth from under his feet. But he settled down and worked hard. Yet when the holidays came at Christmas he was quite ready to go home. Excited1y, in the train, he checked over the things he had to tell his Dad, the things he had to show him. He remembered his present-he had worked at nights for money of his own to buy it. Brown leather slippers, fleece-lined, and a rust- coloured bath robe of soft, silky stuff that felt nice on-he knew because he had tried it to see if it would lit-were in the case at his feet. He walked from the station all tingly inside. The house was dark but it wasn't surprising for he was not expected. The coals on the hearth beckonf ed him in and seemed to say 'he won't be longl' Laurie took a deep breath. His face was drawn and haggard. Little more than twenty-tive minutes later, a car stopped before the gate and the boy stood up, his body taut, his eyes excited. Steps sounded dully in the hall. He made as if to speak. His eyes widenedg his heart thumped painfully, his head was tight. The little group sat tensely, their eyes riveted on the speaker. They brought the still figure in, laid it on the chesteriield. The doctor covered the wounded face with his scarf while the boy stared unbelieving, scarcely breathing. He hardly heard the Doctor's words of sympathy. The tight band around his head brokeg he called in vain to that still form, and fell on his knees, his face hidden on the broken body. Yeah! Sounds like a lot of trashf' Paul broke the painful silence with a sneer. Laurie, his eyes unspeakably sad, his throat un- bearably tight, turned slowly and looked at him. He smiled crookedly and said, He was my Dad. Page Eightyjive Windsor Castle fCl01Zfl'1ZZl6'df70Hl.

Next to the main door is the Gilt Throne under a red velvet and gilt canopy. In this room are an English coin cabinet, two French cabinets and other furnishings. As our visit is only a brief one, we must hurry through the next rooms. They are the Ante-Throne Room and the Waterloo Chamber. We pause for a minute to look at the tremendous mahogany table, which is used at state functions. It seats one hundred and fifty persons. In the Grand Vestibule we catch a glimpse in one of the cases, of a gold embroidered surcoat and stole worn by George IV at his corona- tion, and the crimson and blue robes which he wore when entering Hanover to be crowned King. This completes the tour of the State Apartments, and we make our exit through the King John Tower, one of the oldest and least altered parts of the Castle. I am sorry that we cannot go into detail about the rest of the outbuildings, but our visit must end, and we leave with a very great respect for things that are old, and for the people who help to preserve and cherish them. interview fC'01lf'i1ZltEd from Page 32J Where did' they come from so quickly? I gasped, They just seemed to appear from nowhere. That is the kind of service you get from the rangers, Kirk said, with undisguised pride in his voice. If it had not been for the rangers your camp site would have been a mass of charred timber when you arrived this summer. The Ere did come pretty close, I answered, re- membering the great strip of burned forest which separated our camp from the road. How did you keep it from burning right to the lake? 'LWe dug trenches and forced it back into the swamp with the aid of chemicals and water from the lake. As my companions were anxious to return to camp for lunch, I reluctantly said good-bye to my host and descended the steep iron ladder. My visit with a man who holds one of the most responsible positions in Ontario, had inspired in me a desire to assist in the preservation of one of Ontario's great est assets-her forests.

Page El.g11lj Pl'glIf New Universe Ctiontrinzzed from Page 32, This work created a sensation among physic- ists, particularly among those who could not understand it, indeed, the chief drawback of the theory is the difficulty of expressing it in- telligibly. And these difficulties were increased by the radical nature of the hypothesis itself. Einstein argues that the much-discussed absolute motion has no physical significance, that only motion of one body relative to another has any meaning. He discards entirely our notions of time and space, say- ing that the former is dependent on motion and that two events that appear simultaneous to one observer will not appear so to another with a different motion. The year before publishing this paper Einstein had been married, and in 1909 he resigned his patent ofiice duties and accepted a professorship in the Zurich Academy. It appeared as though he might now settle down and enjoy a well-earned life of ease, but instead he continued to labour on his Theory, which he felt was incomplete. Newton had shown the relation between the mechanical laws of nature and the observer's motion, Einstein had exe tended this to include optical and electrical pheno- mena as well, and it now occurred to him that his conceptions might hold good for any form of motion whatsoever. Ten years he laboured, and in 1915 appeared his crowning achievment, the General Theory of Relativity. In it he showed that time and space are one and inseparable, and managed to ex- plain the phenomenon of gravitation for the first time. And among other things he stated that light rays are subject to gravity, and are bent in passing close to a large, massive body such as the sun. Here, at last, was an opportunity to lift this hypothesis from the realm of the abstract into that of the concrete. An eclipse of the sun was needed, and in 1919 there occurred one that was so fortunate that it seemed to have happened on purpose. A British expedition was sent to Sobral, in Brazil, and returned with the first definite proof of the Einstein Theory. The method was somewhat as follows: During an eclipse, owing to the darkening of the landscape, the stars shine out although the sun is in the sky. And in May, 1919, the sun was eclipsed near two very bright stars. The scientists measured the apparent distance separating these stars, Ein- stein held that the proximity of the sun would cause a bending of their light rays, so that the stars would appear farther apart than they would six months later, when the sun was nowhere near. He calculated the displacement that should occur, and then the scientists measured it. The two results were in exact agreement, and the theory had triumphed! Later came another test of the hypothesis, when Einstein was able to explain a mysterious shifting of the orbit of the planet Mercury, which no one had previously been able to explain. Most scientists to-day accept the Theory of Relativity, with its revolutionary conceptions of the universe.

The man who gave it to the world is now working on a General Field Theory which he believes will be the greatest of all his triumphs. Whether or not his most splendid contribution to science is still to be made, the work he has already done suffices to establish Albert Einstein as one of the greatest of scientific leaders, one of the supreme geniuses in the history of thought.

When We go out on deck to take some pictures, it is necessary to put on our heavy coats. This glacier has its source in an immense ice field from which several other glaciers originate. It is about three miles wide at its mouth, two hundred feet high, and extends back for thirty miles. This is a live glacier and sometimes thrills the traveller for the blast of the ship's whistle may cause large pieces of the ice to break off. From Taku it is a short run to our next stop- Juneau, the capital of Alaska. Juneau is a small but prosperous town. It is the home of the Juneau Alaska Gold Mine which is one of the greatest gold mines in the world. There is a fine museum in Juneau which contains many Indian, Russian and Eskimo relics. The major attraction is, however, Mendenhall Glacier which can be reached by bus from Juneau. This trip is very popular because one may go right up to and in some places even onto the glacier itself. The last lap of our northern voyage is through the beautiful Lynn Canal. High mountains rise abrupt- ly on either side and on their peaks can be seen traces of ancient glaciers. In a little while we reach Skagway-the point where the Trail of '98 be- gms. Skagway is an Indian name meaning Horne of the north wind. But it might well be called the Flower City of Alaska, due to the size and variety of plant life. Here we find dahlias fourteen inches across and pansies four inches in diameter and sweet- peas growing on vines eight to ten feet high. These may appear to be exaggerated but in reality scarcely do justice to the beauty and size of the blooms. At Skagway we visit the grave of Soapy Smith, a notorious gambler who lived in the wild days of '98, Our guide happens to be a very great friend of Soapy's who has refoimed and now runs a home- made street-car for sightseers. Martin Itjen is very proud of his old acquaintance and delights to take the crowds of people into the old, boarded-up gambling parlours and through the now deserted streets of Skagway. This is truly the Land of the Midnight Sun. At eleven forty-five o'clock at night, it is still light enough to take a picture and daylight comes again very early in the morning. In all there are only three hours of semi-darkness. Mr. Barnforth: Did you say this was to be a dangerous operation?
