We believe that the present efficiency and high standing oi' Z3 the school is due in no small measure to his untiring efforts. lle has always had deeply at heart the best interests of the school, and of Education in general, and he has always been unsparing in giv- ing of his time without stint to the work of the school and of the Board. We hope and are confident that Mr. lVIcAra will continue his interest in the school, and that we may in 'the future still have the benefit of his counsel and advice in school matters. Qlnllegiatr mrmurial By the end of June 1919, there was to the credit of the Memo- rial Fund a sum of 519800. During the last academic year some +200 has been added to this amount, most of which has been contributed by the students of the Collegiate. During the year meetings have been called of the ex-students' and friends of the school to carry on the Work. Three committees, namely, finance, records and finance with Mr. Harold Brown, Mr. A. Gillespie, and Mr. Scrimgeour, respectively as convenors have been formed. A tablet whose cost will be in the neighborhood of 322000 has been ordered from Henry Birke and Sons, VVinnipeg and is hoped that the tablet will be put in place during the summer vacation and the unveiling held early in the fall term. 9 Q if , lf' if 'O ft'-'-i lrff

He Went to thelsister province of Alberta to be principal of the Collegiate Institute-. After three years in secondary schools. he joined the government service as principal of the provincial technical institute and later inspector of schools. In September, 1919 he came back to this province as principal of the R. C. I. ' That's our principal, Whose success in our school now is the precursor of what he will accomplish in his comprehensive pro- gram for the R. C. I., Methodic, concise, thorough, aman of gentle dignity and kindly thought, Whose austerity is but a balance wheel- Audrey MacKay 3C V WILLARD s. HoLMEs. We, thevstudents of the R. C. I. consider ourselvesi, extremely lucky to have Mr. W. S. Holmes back with us. Previous to March 1918 he not only performed his duties remarkably Well, as a teacher of Chemistry, Elementary Science and Agriculture but he also gave considerable time to the sports of our school. Of course this was merely in keeping with his previous training, which he received at Queen's. He came to the Regina Collegiate Institute in the fall of 1915. In March, 1918 he joined the Flying Corps. Sorry as we- Were to- lose him, it was to yield him to a cause which needed more immediate attention and We were proud of such a representative in this Grea-t War.
