The Voyageur What would the school be like without our office staff? Thanks a lot, Mrs. Streeter, Miss Richardson, Phyllis and Helen, for a thankless job, well done. ' Those of us who had to grapple with the grippe will well remember the comfort and care given us, by either Miss Baker, or Mrs. Ainsworth. Thank you very much, ye Angels of Mercy! f Congratulations, Reg. Codden, for your success in promoting friendship for Russia in Toronto, and good luck in California! We wonder if it was a common interest in books that brought together our bursar and librarian. While Reg. sheds Mblood, sweat, toil and tearsi, over his accounts, Mrs. Green is ever willing to assist the boys who need help in the library. Editorial congratulations to B. W. Jackson for leading the First Basket- ball Team to victory in the Toronto and District Championship. Much credit is due to Fred Hagan for an excellent season. He partici- pated in numerous art exhibits in Toronto, gave a demonstration of the art and craft of lithographing for the Canadian Society of graphic Arts at the Toronto Art Gallery, exhibited with a group of twenty Canadian Artists at Philadelphia, Pa., and was recently invited to exhibit some of his work in an exhibition of contemporary Ontario art at Quebec City and Ohio State, U.S.A. . Mr. Bunt, always drawn to things American, is teaching at Cranbrook School during the summer. We are sorry to say Mau revoir to Mrs. Scott, who finds that her marital ties force her to leave-'us in order to be able to live in Toronto with John Scott. Congratulations, Mr. Darling, for a great year. Wfe are looking forward to seeing you in the Fall. The prose poem on the frontispiece is from the facile pen of John Meisel, the editor of this volume, whose modesty forbade acknowledgment. John came to us three years ago from Czecho-Slovakia. For his many unselfish contributions to our school life we are grateful.-J.McC. 20

The Voiyageur nj gan ,I George 'Thurber' McGowan T WAS a hot, sultry, mid-May afternoon. Johnny Forsythe sat in the hard A, chair behind his desk, trying hard to give his full attention to what the teacher was saying about the beauty of Shakespeare's writing. The heat and stuffiness of the classroom numbed his senses, however, and he sank lower and lower in his seat. Still Johnny tried to pay attention, but it was of no use, and finally, giving up the effort, he closed his eyes drowsily. The hum of voices and the click, click of chalk on the blackboard first faded, and then it seemed that the sounds grew louder and louder, until they rose into the excited shouts of men, and the roar of diesels. - - - - c'Lieutenant Forsythe, sir, cried a sailor, Hperiscope to port. Sheis surfacing, sirf, Grabbing the wheel of the lVl.T.B. Johnny swung her in the direction indicated. HMake ready torpedo tubes, he yelled. Seconds later a voice came back, ulieady, sirfi 4'Fire Onef' ordered Johnny, then almost immediately, uFire Twof, HNice timing, sir,', exclaimed a junior ofiicer, 'cgot her right amidships. Youill be decorated for this, probably at the palace by - - -f' iiJohnny. will you please sit up and answer my questionf' said the teacher for the second time. Oh, - - - uh, sorry' mumbled Johnny, jerking up, MI, - - uh, well, - - er, - - that is. NNever mind, Campbell, you answer the questionf, The student rose and began giving a long answer, and Johnny slumped down, the hum in his ears growing louder again. 6'Colonel Forsythe will see you now for few minutes, said the pretty C.W.A.C. at the desk, to the gentlemen of the press. Flocking into the inner office, they fired questions at Johnny with the rapidity of a pom-pom gun. ul-low did you win the Victoria Cross? - - - Are you going back? - - - When? - - - When will the war end? - - uGentlemen, please! said the cool voice of the colonel, G4What I did was merely in the line of duty. It had to be done and l was the one to do it. Nothing spectacular. l have no views on the War. l am a busy man. Good daylw They left immediately. 64What a day! muttered Colonel Forsythe, MI would much rather be back in Italy than on the staff here. However, orders must be - - -. HForsythe, will you please pay attention heref, cried the angry teacher. Again Johnny jerked upright and studied earnestly for a few moments, but he soon succumbed to drowsiness and slipped down in his seat, while the sounds of the classroom died out and the humming voice increased.
