He is not only a veteran in connnercial work, he is also a, veteran of the Great VVar. He was a Hier, a high-flier we may well believe, enjoyed life in the Royal Air Force, swooped over London in celebration of the Armistice, and convojved the surren- dered German tleet up the Forth. Now he has spiraled down and landed on the second storey of the Collegiate Institute, where he superintends the connnercial department, giving particular atten- tion to Senior classes, and special students. , Eva Till.

Mr. Eadie is the Physicial Instructor. Before the war he was -connected with the physical departmentiof the Y.M.C.A. in lWi.n- nipeg, and in Hopewell, Virginia. VVhen the war broke outhe returned to Canada and enlisted in September of 1916. He served two years in France with the 12th Battery, Field Artillery. On returning home, he was engaged by Regina Collegiate Institute and has proved to be a.ctive promoter of all kinds of sport in the ,school and has won the good wishes and respect of the boys. ' Mr. NVILFR-ED J. EADTE. Vvrhen Mr. Angus was finding two commercial forms and the special students o11e too many for l1i1n, Mr. Eadie came West to help him out. Like Mr. Angus, he has been through all the dif- ferent positions in commercial schools, from student up to principal. He is a Hterrorw on the typewriter 'and is doing his best to make the students of his class Uterrorsw too. It is our private opinion that he could win the Worlcl's championship if he tried! Anyone who has been in his class room for a minute would know that he had been in the army, by the way tl1e iirst year commercials --1 and the second years too for that matter - have to be Hup and doing. Mr. Eadie's maxim is, 'cS1nile and the world smiles with you, weep and you weep alonef' He is especially noted 'for his after four classes. Eva Till. Mr. VVARVVICK C. ANGUS. ' Somebody must have told Mr. Angus that his sojourn on this Planet would be comperatively short, for to make the most of his opportunity he up and wentl' and learned ALL the systems of 12 and History. .

' Readers of this Annual will miss the names of the Students' Council of former issues. In adjusting the various activities of the Institute for the pre-sent academic year it was felt that, While splendid service hat been rendered by the officers of the old Council, it did not call forth the active- participation of as large a number of the members- as was desirable. Hence a reorganization was effected under a new designation. The offices of the society are filled partly by election, partly by appointment. The following were elected: President-Theodore Spencer. First Vice President-Harry R. Paulin. Second Vice President-Douglas Taylor. Treasurer-Audrey McKay. Assistant Treasurer-Allan Boucher. .Secretary-Mildred Nobles. i Assistant Secretary-Dorothy Hughes. Those appointed were : Senior Literary Society-Jean Peebles, James Conrad. Second Year Literary Society-Marion Sheard, Ronald Gooderham. First Year Literary Society--Mary Schiefner, Tom Drummond. Boys' Athletic Society-Laudes Dutkowski. -Girls' Athletic Society-Ruby Harper. .Staff-Miss C. Brewster, Mr. R. Stoddart. Cf the activities that come within the sphere of the Literary .and Athletic Society, one of the most important is the Field Day. Though the day was exceptionally cold the competition in all the events was keen. The honors of the Senior boys were won, as it was fitting they should be by our President, Ted Spencer. . The Commencement exercises were held in the Normal School as the limited capacity of our own auditorium forced us to seek a larger hall. In opening the proceedings, the president in a well- .ordered speech reviewed the activitis of the year. A series of intercollegiate debates was arranged with Regina College and the Normal School, the Collegiate representatives lost to the Normal, but won from the College. The debaters were, in the former contest, VV.E.K. Middleton and lVlcCrillivray Lee of -lA. in the latter, Clive Davidson and Clive Leitch of 4B. The tinals of the Balfour ora.tory contests were held under the auspices of the Literary and Athletic Society and the speeches were delivered before a very large and appreciative audience. The editing and Hnancing of the Annual comes within the .scope of this Society's duties. These duties have all been allotted so equitably, that the work is being completed without unduly burdening any member. During t.he year two concerts were held in the Auditorium. Both were a credit to our school. The programs were in each ea se of high order and onthe financial side the concerts Were grati- fyingly successful. - 14
