S. TRIP Q What a day! On February Q, Special Commercial and Grade 13 motored to Toronto on an inspection tour of the 3.N.R. buildings. The teachers who had the doubtful privilege of accompanying us were Mr. GOHL and Mr. MacDOKALD. The trans- portation was supplied also by Mrs. Aldred and Nr. Baylis. Mr. MacDONnLD chaperoned Special Commercial around some of the offices while we got an inside view of the procedures of office labour. Our first observation was the operation of teletype. Here we divided into two groups. ISABEL GIBSON, BARBARA HUNTER, LOIS LZASK, MARINA LEE, EKID CLLMENTS, and LOIi ASHTON, had their names inserted in a cablegram for a souvenir of their visit. Placed on our bul- letin board now, it reads: WThis is to certify that these girls were on a conducted tour of the Canadian National Tele- grgghi at BL7 Bay Street Toronto on the afternoon of February 5 . While this was transpiring, the other group consisting of CAROL HEAYL, IRLNL HEYLS, LnUREIH IARMICK, aLICE PORTER, JEAN TAYLOR, BUD Manhlhnh and myself were served refreshments in the cafeteria, where the other group joined us. This was a welcome break for everyone, as our afternoon of tramping around the city had only just begun. Also honoured by our humble appearance were several law offices, an accounting office, and the ticket office at the C.k.R. Here a kindly old gentleman patiently proceeded to explain the system of travelling around the country via C.M.R. how to buy a ticket to any destination, tariffs, etc. CMARINA and BUD were interested in buying tickets south where they planned to make their living at picking cotton.3 It was all very interesting, and the insight will no doubt be of value to us in the near future. In the meantime, Mr. GOHL supervised Grade l3, on a sim- ilar tour, concerned chiefly with the physics outlook. KAY ALDRED and JOAN CHnPIN delighted in using the teletype to con- tact one another. FAYE H-YDQN and ISOBEL BAYLIS were greatly amazed at the morse code, whereby the guides signalled to Alberta and there discerned immediate wheather conditions within a matter of seconds. NORM, JIM, and PAUL were interested in the delicate op- erations of the men in charge of switching radio programmes from different cities to different stations at precisely the moment it is scheduled to come into your home on your radio. EARL was most interested in the girl in the cafeteria. On the way home, most of us welcomed the opportunity of dropping in at Andrewfs to refresh our drooping spirits with chicken-in-a-basket, hamburgs, fish and chips and pan-cakes and bacon. This greatly revived us for the last lap home. It was a somewhat f1tiguing day, but on the whole, I think, very profitable to all concerned. -SYLVIA HANCOCK

O.M.E.A. MUSIC FESTIVAL The Ontario Music Educator's Association for the past four years have sponsored a provincial choir, with three hundred students from forty high schools and collegiates from all over the province participating. The programme consists of selections from the choir, orchestra, and outstanding guest soloists. This year as in previous years, Port Perry High School was again represented. Due to the fact, however, that the majority of the boys attended a basket ball tournament in Kingston, only two students were represented in the choirg NANCY KIGHT, and BARBARA LOVE. Under the marvellous direction of Don Wright, the concert was presented to an overwhelming audience in the Eaton Auditorium on April 21. The students who came from all parts of the province spent only two days as a complete group rehearsal, however we were well prepared by the capable training of Mr. Brooks. A During the two day rehearsal, I became acquainted with many new friends. A splendid dance at Jarvis Collegiate on Tuesday night added to the enjoyable programme provided by the Music Educator's Association. Nine selections constituted the programme. Break Forth Oh Beautious Heavenly Light - J. S. Bach Mary and Martha - Don Wright God of Our Fathers - Fred Waring When Johnny Comes Marching Home - Peter Jwilhouhy Nocture - Don Wright He's Going' Away - John Jacob Niles, Veneta - Brahams Are You Sleeping - Don Wright I Am He That Liveth - Walter Gale ion Wright the noted choir leader with his touch of genius both thrilled the audience and students with his personal interpretation of the music. It was a privilege and an honour for me to represent my school at the O.M.E.A Music Festival this year. Future students who have the same opportunity, may I advise you to take full advantage of it. You will gain valuable experience and later recall many enjoyable moments. BARBARA LOVE
