Sighs of relief are heard from the Magazine Staff as the task of encouraging girls to write, assigning the work, collecting advertisements, correcting and copying manuscripts, and compiling the magazine is almost over. However, there are pangs of regret when we realize that weeks of pleasure, in spite of minor worries and disappointments, are drawing to a close. It is with the aim of keeping, in years to come, some true record of our accomplishments and efforts, our hap- piness in school activities and friendships that years at Riverbend have aHorded us, that we send forth this work. Perhaps a picture, a fragment of a poem, a sentence of a story will bring to you more vividly some elusive mem- ory of your school life. This little book has been an honest effort and we only hope that in reading it you will find as much pleasure as we found in compiling it. The river flows on around the bends of lifej Once again Vox Fluminis has been sent forth and we hope that in the future the Magazine Staff will find smooth sailing and a safe port.

VOX FLUMINIS 7 ll ll i ADVENTURES IN THE NORTH ' fPrize Winning Storyj THE following is a very exaggerated and comical account of an Arctic, or thereabouts, adventure. It couldn't be anything but foolish since Captain Ezra Pyke is the narrator. First let me introduce you to the Cap'n. He isn't very tall, in fact, quite the reverse, with a well-fed tummy and a broad, beaming countenance. Despite his very comfortable appearance he has led an exciting life, as he will tell you. His one fault is over-indulgence especially in matters of food. But that needn't worry us since Cap- tain Ezra has just begun one 'of the stories for which he is famous. Yes Sir, those were the good old days! Why I remember away back in 'eighty-six when my crew and I went on a fishing trip in the North Sea Islands. That was when I was Capt'n on the 'Mary- land,' the stoutest little ship that ever set out of port. Well, we left on Friday morning. It was good sailing until we got north of Labrador and then we struck a gale. There was nothing to do but lower the sails and wait. Unfortunately we had left the anchor behind and had to drift with the waves. Speaking of waves, them's the worst I've ever seen and in my days I've seen plenty. They were biggerln this here house. We drifted for ten days, only God knows where. The only time we came near any fish was the time we were wedged in be- tween two rocks and the fish trying to get us. Once a whale came on board-and, as everyone else was scared, I took the butcher knife and after a terrifice struggle killed the brute. We kept on drifting, always farther north, till by this time we'd gone two weeks I had on four pairs of red flannels, two waistcoats, my own trousers as well as the head engineer's, the mate's fur coat and three blankets. As I was saying before, that was the worst shipwreck I've ever been in. Oh, pardon me! I thought Ild told you we were wrecked. Yes Sir! why they even had to take a pair of my red flannels to make a flag. The first pair blew away with the wind, the second was torn and the third fell into the sea. I resolved to keep my last, so they took. the blankets and the mate took his fur coat, so there I was stranded in mid ocean with only one pair of red flannels. I assure you I was never sohumiliated in all my life. Finally, after drifting for days without a single blessed ship coming within fifteen leagues of us, the men took sick with scurvy. Some of them died leaving only four of us, valiant and hearty sea- men. That night we held a meeting and'I swore to guide them safely 8 VOX FLUMINIS home. One of them had the nerve to say, 'Even if we have to- swim.' I chucked him overboard, a big brute of a fellow. One of the others took ill with scurvy and died next day. The other was fro-zen to death and there was I alone in the frozen North! My only comfort was that I had the run of the shipfs kitchen, but soon even that gave out. It was not long before the ship struck an iceberg and sprang a leak in the hold. By that time I was too weak to care whether the old ship went down or not. By and by I felt the water around my ankles and resolved to swim for shore. - I swam ste-adily for three hours and the floated, half asleep. The water was paralyzing and once I thought I was a goner when a huge mountain of an iceberg came bearing down upon me. I dove and the thing passed over me. Finally, after two days and nights, I reached shore. I had landed at an Eskimo settlement. A drunken group of them tried to murder me, but I soon made short work of them. E I was fortunate enough to find a schooner anchored in the harbor on which I returned home. Thus ends another of Captain Ezra's stories. He is at the present quite peeved since I refuse to believe him,-in fact, to quote him, So you'd be making a bally ol' liar of me. But nevertheless his good nature or his appetite soon overcame his distaste for my remark. FRANCES HEAKES, '37, York Hall. BUTTERFLIES Oh! Butterflies, purple and gold, With your queenly airs and bold, You, with your wings a sheer delight, Folded in cobwebby slumber at night. Oh! Butterflies, yellow and white, Wrapped in green leaves far out 'of sight, When you emerge from your cocoon, You are as fresh as the bright new moon. Oh! Butterflies, small and great, As you come in your season, early or late, You bring a message of bright good cheer, That gives us pleasure throughout the year. MARJORIE C. MCKINNELE, '38, ' Garry Hall. VOX FLUMINIS 9 THE NEW NEIGHBGR HOW she hated that new boy, thought Sally, as she passed his yard on her bicycle for the ninth time. There was the boy, still busy with his hammering, his dog by his side, never once noticing the bicyclist passing and repassing the gate. Sally had failed to attract his attention by motion, but there were other resources. Hey! yelled Sally, How do you like my new bicycle?,' At last the boy looked up. It's very nice, he replied, and again continued his work. Humph, muttered Sally and rode on, but she wasn't the type to give up so soon and she resolved to try again. Want to ride it? she called over the gate. 'fThanks, was the reply, But I don't ridef' Sally stopped in amazement. Who ever heard of a boy not being able to ride a bicycle? Recovering from her surprise, she asked: Why don't you learn? No response, so Sally repeated her question a little louder. Still no answer. Can't you hear? Sally shouted. Yes, replied the boy gazing intently at his work. Well, why don't you learn to ride? demanded Sally. T Because, came the reply ,low and soft, as the boy remained still bent over his work, because I'm lame. Sally's active mind went blank. A hot wave swept over her, and tears sprang to her eyes. In a stupor she pushed aside the gate, and advanced slowly. Halting, she sank down beside him. The boy looked up realizing Sally had come in, and a sad smile spread over his face. Sally wanted to return this smile but somehow she just couldn't. Finally Sally ventured awkwardly: My name is Sally Watson. What's yours? Peter Burrows. Are you the girl who lives next door? UYeS.H 'Tm glad you live next door, said Peter. You sort of seem to-to understand, and he fingered his crutch which lay close at hand. Sally remembered how she had, not even an hour ago, despised Peter. Will you, she asked, will you ever be better? Peter shook his head and began to stroke his dog. This is Lorendaviaf' said Peter huskily, introducing him. Lorry, this is Sally Watson, our next door neighbor. Shake hands. Lorendavia? murmured Sally. Yes, said Peter. I call him Lorry for short, and then he dropped his voice to a whisper. He's a fairy prince, who has been bewitched by his cruel uncle. 10 VOX FLUMINIS Oh, whispered Sally, looking at Lorry, who was yawning widely. Will he ever be 'unwitched' again? ' . Peter nodded. You see, he said in a dreamy voice, Prince Lorendavia always wore a beautiful ring which his great-great- grandmother had given him. This ring is magic, and as long as the Prince wore it nothing could hurt him, but his uncle persuaded him to take off the ring, and when Prince drew off the ring the wicked man immediately transformed him to a puppy, and seized the Prince's kingdom. The magic ring in the meantime had seemingly vanished, and after a vain search the uncle finally decided the ring had disappeared. The ring did not vanish, however, instead it took on the shape of a monstrous beast. One day this beast will kill the uncle, and so break the spell. Lorendavia will re-sume his princely state, and the wild beast will become the magic ring and return to the finger of the Prince? Sally had listened enchanted by the tale, fearing to speak lest the story should abruptly end. The shadows lengthened as the sun crept towards the western horizon. Sally, said Peter, someday, someday when I've- grown to be a man, l'm going to write a book about a lame boy, only he'll,--he'll get better, and he'll be able to race, and to jump, and--to ride a bicycle. It'll be a famous book like Dickens' and Kip-ling's, and everyone will read it. There was another long silence. Then,-- and, Sally, I'm going to dedicate that book to you, because,--because you're the only person who has ever cared about a crippled boy, who can't run, who must just sit,1and dream. CAROLINE HARRIS, '38: Douglas Hall. THE FIRST RIDE Up! Up! Nothing below me, air above- Mountains appearing, wind sweeping by, Clouds in the distance, and dust in my eye. Hands all trembling, breath comes in gasps, Oh, good heavens! How long will this last? Whirling and twirling, spinning with a zoom, Hold her boys, or we'll hit the moon! Soon there's a city, then it is past, Sinking and sliding, why so fast? All full of fear, l'm thinking of home: Slow her down, or you'll be alone! 'Tis only a nightmare. Am I going to die? T Oh, no! I am living, there's the blue sky. With half of my senses, and more dead than alive, The plane has landed! She's lit on her side. LoU1E LEIs'r1Kow, '38, York Hall. VOX FLUMINIS ll VENTILATION IN THE SCHOOL ROOM LOSE the windows! That is the first thing anyone hears on entering the grade nine classroom. The classroom is as divided as two political parties. The half that wants the windows open is known as the fresh air fiends, and the other group is known as the grandma group. All day there is a continual feud. All day win- dows go up and down and the heat goes on and off. This has gone on since September and will probably go on till June-if there is any heat to turn on or if the windows can still go up and down. Freezing or boiling are the two adjectives 'that are always applied to the grade nine classroom. MARGARET GRABAN, '38, York Hall. PRIZE WINNING POEM Inspired by a Free Press Photograph ' UFARMYARD, GoNoR, MANITOBA F- Fronting on the highway, reaching to the Red, A A little plot-snug, homey spot, I snapped as by we sped. R Rugged 'gainst the north wind, snow-flanked to the sills, Mike Robak's house, his barn and shed, the picture partly fill. E Y Yonder in the backyard, windlass topping well, A And Mike, husband, full pail in hand, water for Rosabel. R Rosabel, the housewife, out of sight indoors, D Doubtless engaged with bairns, or broom or other wifely chores. G Gleam like steel the sky doth, white the dark-roofed walls, O On every tree, beyond a lea, hoar-frost's clear sheen enthrals. N Neatly piled the firewood, chimney yielding sparks: O O'er snowdrift crests, fence-shadows creep, apace comes on the R Relieved, how'er, by twinkling stars and new moon's ldark, radiant arc. M Manitoba strange to, born in the Ukraine, A A gawky youth, this Mike forsooth, unto our country came. N Nothing then of world's goods, only brawn, and grit, I In twenty years, this happy home, he gained bit by bit, T Toiling at the harvests, lab'ring jobs as well, O On summer nights, young love's delights, wooing Rosabel. B Blessings on the Robaks, on their neighbors too! ' A Accomplishments like theirs reveal what industry will do. ELEANOR MACINNES, '36, Douglas Hall. 12 VOX FLUMINIS THE THEATRE BEFCJRE THE CURTAIN ROSE T ten minutes after eight I entered practically an empty audi- torium, walked down the wide aisle until I decided that I was somewhere within the vicinity of my place. I then proceeded to count the rows of empty seats, and jerked down into the one I had decided was mine. I settled myself as comfortably as possible, counting the numer- ous articles I must hold in my lap, scarf, gloves, purse, handkerchief, program, so that I would have some idea of what I should be carry- ing when I left. As it was exam-time, I drew out my little speller from my purse, and concealed it in my program. To all intents and purposes I was diligently memorizing the names of the Various 'cRomanova's, Sedova's and Pavlovitchsky's who were to ap- pear, while I was in reality muttering with an ever-increasing frown the complicated spelling of our even more complicated language. I was, of course, sitting in an aisle seat, where I had to be pre- pared to rise at short notice, so that numbers of beaming gentlemen and perfumed ladies might stumble over my feet to their places. While the auditorium was quickly filling, I noticed with a groan that there were to be two fifteen-minute intermissions. I knew, from other performances, that the two girls who were at that mo- ment crawling past my legs, would be in and out four or five times before the evening was over. From time to time heavy gentlemen and stout women rested their arms heavily upon my shoulder, as they fell over other peop1e's feet in the row behind me. As I went on to memorize the third column of spelling, I was too busy to gaze around the room and nod at various friends and ac- quaintances. I was just getting ecstacy into my head, e-x-t-a-c-y, when sure enough four or five people were waiting politely for me to rise. As they crossed over my feet, ruining my light shoes, I dropped my program and my handkerchief. A stout man and his wife marched up the aisle, and, of course, the man plunked down ahead of me, so that now all I could see in front was his broad back and bald head. I practised craning my neck to decide which side was the most comfortable to lean on, so that I wouldn't have to find that out after the performance had started. Resigning myself to the fact that I would be able to see only the dancers' heads, and sometimes their arms, I went back to my spell- ing, only to have to rise for a portly gentleman who jerked down beside me. Hastily I settled my arm on the narrow arm of the seat before he got his there, and then went through a bad five minutes while he took his coat offi, during the course of which I received several biffs in the side from his elbow, and a slap in the face from the sleeve of his coat, which then brushed slowly across 'my hair. I dis- covered that my coat had fallen down from the back of the seat, VOX FLUMINIS 13 and, in attempting to put it up again, I found that my neighbor was sitting on a large corner of it. After several vain tugs I gave up trying to pull it out from under him, and settled back in my seat. Just as I was about to read the title of the first number, the lights went out, I rose for God Save the King, dropping, this time, only a glove, sat down again, and the curtain rose.

HRIVERBENDN They start with Miss Crawshaw in grades one and two, There are some who are old, and some who are new, In grades three and four, as they take their knocks, Their guiding hand is our own Miss Vaux. Miss Gregory looks after the fifth and sixth grades, And attempts to improve the minds of the maids. Miss Dunlop has seven and knows how to sew, Miss Henley's the teacher of grade eight, I know. Miss Grant devotes energy, patience and time Teaching and pleading with pupils in nine, A Misses Shillington and Wilson in ten and eleven Require the patience and wisdom of heaven To teach girls to study, review, dig and delve In order to meet Miss Macdougall in twelve. At Miss Rutherford's work we must take a look, Both in the gym and the place where they cook. And last but not least we shall gratefully name Miss Carter, in charge of our Hall of Fame. My verses I close and bring to an end With three rousing cheers for our Riverbend 1 DoRo'rHY FoRsYTH, '36, York Hall. oUR PREFECTS We love our prefects at Riverbend, They play the game and faithfully tend Their duties, both at work and play, So well, that we can safely say, Here,s to Shirley, June and Dossie, Betty and Edna-and none of them saucy.

For who can help from going astray When the spring has come again, With the robin and the wren Now the southern breezes play Across the sky, Once cold and gray, One and all, let us away! This way! This way! Come you students, wipe Off the frown, Toil no more. One last look at teacher and gown, The bottle Of ink, just spilt on the floor, Then come down- CYOu can not learn though you strive all day! To the bay-come away! Students, could it have been yesterday That we heard a teacher say Exams will be coming any day? ' Through the turmoil and the swell We heard the sound of the recess bell? ' Or were we in a fitful sleep Among tall grasses cool and sweet, Where angry eyes would never gleam If it might even hopeless seem Some Algebra and History pound Into your head 'till it Ustruck ground Or where if e'er your Chemistry Is not as good as it should be You could not come back Saturday? But the week-end is over, we cannot stay, SO we must return for ever and aye. RUTH WOOD, '36, Douglas Hall. A CANADIAN BOAT sONG-MOORE. THE sun was quickly setting in the west when my friends and I were paddling slowly homeward after a long, hard day of work. We were singing and keeping time to our paddles when, out through the quiet of the evening, we heard the familiar chime of our own home church, Saint Anne. There was still some distance to travel before reaching our destination, so I urged my comrades to quicken VOX FLUMINIS 15 their paddles. The clear, pure chimes were beginning to make us feel homesick, also darkness was rapidly falling and the dangerous rapids were still ahead to be safely passed. The water was calm and clear as a mirror, the pine trees rose sedately and reflected their strong arms in the deep water, the birds were settling in their nests ready for a good night's rest. Everything was becoming quieter. which gave us a feeling of satisfaction that cannot be put into words. The moon was rising over the opposite horizon and the first stars were dimly beginning to twinkle in the heavens. The rapids are drawing nearer so, Row my friends! or darkness will surround us and we shall be at the mercy of the rapids. We murmur a humble prayer to our Patron Saint in whom we put our trust. Saint of this green isle, hear our prayers, Grant us cool heaven and favoring airs. CATHERINE BINGEMAN, '39, , Garry Hall. HOW THE GOPHER GOT HIS STRIPES OHNNIE GOPHER was an inquisitive little fellow. He was always getting into trouble. Johnnie lived at the edge of the village of Rabbitsford. One morning in spring, Johnnie came out of his hole in the ground to find a newcomer building his house in the ditch near the road. Johnnie, of course, wanted to know all the details. I'll go around and peek in later on, when the house is built, he vowed. One week later the house was completed. The day after Johnnie heard sounds which greatly piqued his curiosity, sounds of tinkling glass, sizzling, steaming, crackling. He stole across the road and peeked in at one of the windows. A little black furry animal with two white stripes down his back, was standing in front of rows of test-tubes. In his paw he held a field mouse. In his other paw was a brush and near him was a tube of what looked like petrified paint. ln an instant Johnnie, too, was petrified. The animal turned round and saw him! Johnnie was conscious of a desire to breathe pure air. Black- ness descended. When he woke up, he found himself on a table with the animal bending over him, brush poised in mid-air. Johnnie gathered that he was to be used instead of the field mouse. The animal told him that he was testing a new permanent dye. Johnnie was turned over and painted. Blackness descended again. When Johnnie woke up he was in his own house, in his own bed. He got up and rushcdto the nearest mirror. His beautiful 16 VOX FLUMINIS golden-brown coat had two black stripes down the middle of it! Johnnie tried everything to remove the stripes--Bon Ami, patent corn cures, soap and water-all to no avail. The stripes would not disappear and there they remain until this day. .

RIVERBEND FORTY YEARS -HENCE HERE I sit a confirmed old maid of fifty-four propelling this dear little gyro of mine in the vicinity of Winnipeg. I just happened to be looking through some of my old diaries the' other day and the ones of 1935 and 1936 reminded me of those good old days back at Riverbend in Winnipeg, so I decided to come back and have a look at the place. Here we are-not bad time, five hundred miles an hour. They have a few additions since the days I was here. How time slips by. 4'Could I look around your school, please? Why, yes, of course. Would you like to see Miss Carter? Miss Carter! By all meansll' , What's this I see! Why the dear old school has turned modern. All these fixtures are quite the newest thing and the furniture- well, I say, I wish I had a few of our old class back here to see the place. . It sounds as if someone was tearing down those stairs at an awful rate. Everything for speed these days. Well, blow me down, as Pinny used to say, if it wasn't---. VOX FLUMINIS 17 How do you do, Miss Carter? CShe still has the same old pep.J Here We are over in the school building. These classrooms are certainly not much like they Were when We used to be in them. Just look at those uniforms-blue cellophane. That's all right for this time of year. 'That voice sounds familiar. You say that little girl is June Edmison's granddaughter? I remember the days we used to stand around singing Get Along Little Doggie and June was ring-leader. So this is the new swimming pool. What we vvouldn't have given for that in our young days. Well do I remember all the plans We used to make for one. Where are those girls going? -Flying. Oh, yes, this is Wednes- day afternoon. And that's Morna Kenny's grandchild going riding. She inherited that love for horses, eh? . Do you have many boarders, Miss Carter? You say there are no boarders, they all fly to school every morning from Where they are. That's nice for them. It eliminates a lot of lonesomeness. It frees you from a lot of trouble, too, no doubt. Did you hear that Wee one over there reminding her class about bringing money? The school may change its appearance but the some old traits outlive the years!

The choosing of the play proved quite a problem, but once we heard Rumplestiltskin read we knew what we wanted to produce. ' During the course of preparation we met several difficulties. Some leading characters would be sick and absent for ten days, which considerably delayed our progress. However, at the time of writing, we feel almost ready for Tuesday afternoon, May 12, and are looking forward to 'our opportunity to show our mothers and friends what an enjoyable little play Rumplestiltskin is.

GRADES III AND IV THE fairy play Golliwog in Fairyland or How Edward The Teddy Bear Became a Knight was presented by Grades III and IV in May. The cast was large and some of the girls too-k double or triple parts. The costumes were greatly enhanced through the eHorts of Nancy Wallick, who supervised the making of the flowers used in the play. Some of the scenery was kindly loaned by the T. Eaton Co., the remainder was made by the girls. The cast hopes that the audience received as much pleasure in seeing it as they did in presenting it. 26 VOX FLUMINIS T 4s ur '1ll'l f 'QAX :fp .

In all there are twenty members. The group first sang at the Teachers' Convention in St. James. They sang a group of five songs. The girls belong to the Junior Musical Club, and in this connection have sung over the radio and at a meeting of the club. At present they are preparing to sing at the Musical Competition Festival. Already Iris Norman has won great success by coming first in her class. We only hope that the rest of the girls will have the same success. Much credit andpraise is due Mrs. Dempsey who has carefully coached the girls and kept up their spirits by her own enthusiasm. We hope we will hear more from the girls after their work at the Festival. JANET BARTHOLEMEW, '37, York Hall. THE SENIOR PLAY This year the Senior Dramatic Club produced Charles Dickens' Christmas Carol, under the capable direction of Miss Carter. The part of Scrooge was admirably portrayed by Shirley Muddiman, who was supported by an able cast. The charming musical back- ground was supplied by Mrs. Dempsey and the Senior Glee Club. A large audience was in attendance and their approval was shown by their hearty response. MAURINE STUART, '36, York Hall. FRIDAY NIGHTS LAST year the only Friday night get-together that was held was such a success that it was decided, with Miss Carter's per- mission, to have more of them this year. Accordingly, not long after school began we held our first, on the eighteenth of October. The Senior teachers were invited and grades nine, ten, eleven and twelve. We all met at the School and went together to the Winnis- peg Rink. Not many had been on roller-skates before but it did not take long for the beginners to get their skating-legs. We returned to the School for refreshments, after which we danced in the gym. The next Friday night was held on the fifteenth of November, in the form of a hike. This time the Junior teachers were invited VOX FLUMINIS 27 and again we set out from the School. We hiked along the river bank and, usual, were glad to get back to the School for something to eat. The Grade Tens did dishes this time because the Elevens had done them the last time. 1 The thirteenth of December was the next occasion and as it was good tobogganing weather we decided to toboggan on our own river banks. This time Miss Carter was with us. Miss Wilson did not feel the bumps, though we did our best to help her. Miss Grant admitted that she felt the bumps very much in certain spots. Our last party before the term ended, was on the seventeenth of January. This time we stayed at the School to skate. It was a very cold night and not many came skating. Two more Friday Nightsv are planned before school closes in June and we are sure that they will prove to be as much fun as the others were. BETTY MOXON, 36: y York Hall. THE SCHOOL DANCE Miss Carter delightfully entertained at a dance in honor of grades ten, eleven and twelve, on February 21st, The dance, at which Col. and Mrs. J. Y. Reid and Mr. and Mrs. N. B. Walton were patrons and patronesses, was held in the Middle House. Vari- colored' balloons and golden daffodils were the only decoration and they were used very effectively. A charming buffet supper was served and, afterwards, the dance was continued 'till shortly after midnight.

And what was new? Well, nearly everything,-new faces in the kindergarten and indeed in every grade,-new dances,-new music,-new exercises Cone a very clever inspiration from the Olympic gamesl, new apparatus fa spring-board and parallel bars acquired this yearj ,-and newest of all new things, the smart-looking pleated gym shorts that arrived just in time to be worn at the display. The programme, too long unfortunately, to be included here, consisted of exercises and dancing by all grades, a play by Grade' VI, and apparatus work by the Junior and Senior groups. There was evidenced throughout not only individual achievement but splendid co-operation and team-work in every grade. The last number, a grand march by Grades VII to XII, brought much applause as the girls formed the letters R. S. and the river which make up the Riverbend crest. Then came the final square formation around the gymnasium. A Miss Rutherford was presented with a bouquet of spring flow- ers,-God Save the King was sung, and the march out concluded another very successful Gym Display at Riverbend School. AGNES RICHARDSON, '37, Garry Hall. BASKETBALL Basketball, as usual, played a very important part in the life of Riverbend this year. The girls have practised very enthusiastically and have done their best for their teams. The players on the first team were: Betty Newcombe, jump, Lydia Klein, Gwen Ramsay, Betty Moxon, defence, Shirley Muddi- man, side centre, Louie Leistikow, June Edmison, forwards. The second team players were. Edna Pinfold. Verna MacLachlan, jumps, Dossie MacLean, Mary Rose Mackenzie, forwards, Agnes Richardson, Iris Norman, Morna Kenny, defence, Dorothy Forsyth, side centres VOX FLUMINIS 29 So far we have played only two games, both with St. lVIary's Academy. The first was at Riverbend. The scores were,-first team 12, 14 ffor Riverbendj, and second team 12, 2 ffor St. Mary'sJ. The second was played at St. Mary's Acade-my. The scores were,-iirst team 18, 14 ffor St. Mary'sJ, and second team 18, 12 Calso in favor of St. Mary'sJ. A We enjoyed both games very much. We were not always vic- torious but the spirit of the games made them enjoyable. We are looking forward to two games with Ruperts Land, some house games, and also one with the Riverbend Staff. Next year some- one will tell you about the-m, and I am sure they will be remembered with as much pleasure as they are being anticipated. We are all very grateful to Miss Rutherford, who gave her time and energy so gene-rously and graciously for the good of the teams. We deeply regret that she will not be with us next year.

BADMINTGN Badminton was played this term with great enthusiasm. The club was successfully formed under the direction of Miss Rutherford, who was later appointed Honorary President. Dorothy Forsyth was elected President, with Maurine Stuart as Business Manager. The tournament of Doubles Was arranged for February 18th. There were thirty entries in the tournament, mostly from Grades IX, X, XI and XII. The four contestants in the final round were Maurine Stuart and Dorothy Forsyth CYork Hallj against Betty Newcombe and Isobel Hutchison fGarry Hallj. The final game was exciting and well played, each team doing its best. After a very close game the winners were Betty Nevvcombe and Isobel Hutchison. The Badminton Club has met with such approval this year that We sincerely hope it will be continued. y , MOLLY MOSCARELLA Dossnz MACLEAN. VOX FLUMINIS 31 AN HOUR WITH THE GUIDES . HIS scene is enacted by the youngest company of Guides in Winnipeg, and I am sure the merriest. We are known as the 65th Company and are proud of it. We owe much to our captain- Miss Vaux, and our lieutenant, Miss Isabel MacArthur. They have had great patience with us, inexperienced as we are. It has not been easy to organize this new company. Of course, as yet every- thing is not up to the standard, but it is remarkable the amount of work that has been carried out. Since the formation of the company we have succeeded in estab- lishing a reputation for ourselves. We came out first in the swim- ming races, and attained fifth place in the skating competition. We have found it interesting fun working for badges, making patrol boxes, flags and various other articles, and are looking forward with enthusiasm to the bright prospects before us. What a confusion and scramble in the locker room at four o'clock on Tuesday afternoon! On inquiry one finds that the girls in navy blue uniforms are .busied with last-minute preparations before climbing up the stairs to join the rest of the company in the gym. Entering the gym one sees a frolicking game of tag commence, a very perplexed girl bending over a book, and two others shouting loudly in order to hear each other above the noise. A long blast of the whistle is followed by an unnatural silence. Another whistle signal and the four patrol leaders-Betty New- combe, Roberta Jean McQueen, Peggy Murray, and Shirley McLean -hurry to the lieutenant. Then at the command Company, fall in! the rest of the guides form up in their four patrols-the Canary, the Oriole, the Scarlet Tanager, and the Bluebird. Inspection, and alas for the forgetful one who didn't remember! Strict is our lieutenant about tidiness. A Girl Guide must always be neat. Each patrol is very anxious to win Inspection, as a reward goesto the best patrol. In the form of a horseshoe we receive our orders for the day, after which we fall out, and go to our patrol corners, where we commence to work. in order to pass tests. A Girl Guide is taught nature study, the Morse code, flags, knots, bandages, and many other useful things. The ambition of every Guide is to wear a string of well-earned badges on the sleeve of her uniform. Games now begin, and the competition between the patrols is great. A variety of exciting races is always ready, and there is never a dull moment. The whistle calls for silence. The games are over, and we once more assume our work. The end of the hour draws nearer. We gather around our re- alistic camp-fire to sing Taps, A Good night, Guides, says the captain. , Good night, Captain, echo the Guides. CAROLINE HARRIS, '38, Douglas Hall. 32 VOX FLUMINIS- 0 BROWN IES Our latest venture is the formation of a Brownie Pack. The first meeting was held on Friday, May 8th, with Miss Erma Wellband as the Brown Owl. We wish the Brownies every success in their new undertaking. on Ny, I . ' ,f rea if S9 GIFTS E, the girls of Riverbend, are glad to have this opportunity of telling the friends of the school just how much we appreciate their kindness and generosity to us this year. P Perhaps the most used and most appreciated of their gifts has been the springboard given to us by the Advisory Council. This and the parallel bars lent by Mrs. J. A. Richardson have made the gym classes even more interesting and enjoyable than before. Gifts of books from Mrs. Richardson and Miss Helen Palk have been placed in the newly-formed Junior Library, and that of Dr. Daniel Mclntyre in the French section. We should like also to thank Miss Palk, Morna Kenny, and Margaret and Judy Bennett for books added to the Senior Library. Thanks to the efforts of our own Grade VIII, whose zeal resulted in a most successful Fish Pond, the Library has been increased by over twenty books. Such enterprise should be commended-and, we hope, imitated! ' May we suggest both to friends and to girls that when next you houseclean your shelves, the Riverbend Library will be wait- ing with open doors to receive any books ready to be passed on. Thank you again for all your thoughtfulness. 33 IS N X FLUMI VO IIKII Iylllllllx wmhkmm zpmg Wzeam Ugzgmv cmtmuog oh bam I Illlullll I ll 1IlllIIllI IIII w Sham 2,82 Ili llIII IllIV lr: EWUAUQE gmgn EAQOYA kEaO,HOQ UDEOORSZ bam UDEOSSUZ bam MEN Sgawm bah 05500252 bam CNEMEUDE zgbcm HQSOA Ogah .MESH 2,82 UCSZQOE E36 ,SEIOQ QSNMHNE ,STSOQ HSNWHNE U0-A OCS- OQA Ugg' is Nsncgmga 625362 Ea 25 Ugg.

First came a man. He was selling roses. He had a kind-looking face and a merry smile. He seemed to be glad when any person bought a rose. I Soon I saw a grand carriage appear. It was slowing down. A fine lady stepped out. The man who was selling the roses said, Madam, would you buy a rose? With a haughty turn of the head the lady said, I canlt be bothered with peddlers, and stepped into the carriage. The man looked a little hurt but was not down- hearted. He still went on with his cry Roses, roses, who will. buy fresh roses? Next came a little boy and girl. They were walking with their kind-faced nurse. The little girl looked up at her nurse and said, Nursey, let's take Mommy home a rose. The rose was purchased and on they went. I waited quite a while before anyone came. Then I saw a oneh armed soldier. He stopped right in front of me and began to draw pictures on the pavement. Some were of children, some of cats and dogs. When he drew a clock, with the hand pointing to twelve, I was suddenly reminded that I had promised mother that I would be o-n time for lunch, so I must leave my passers-by for another day.

I was just a sheet of paper in a box, with my family and rela- tions on a store counter. One day I heard somebody say, Yes, just a box of note paper, please, and somebody walked over our way, and when anybody comes near us we shake with fright. Well this time we had a rea- son, for we were picked and sold, as one of us remarked, just like slaves. We were taken to a place and left for a couple of days. Then one day two of my cousins disappeared and then one of my aunts. After that so many of us disappeared that I lo-st count. I was at the VOX FLUMINIS 35 bottom of the box and so was the last to go. I waited and soon I was taken out and scratched all over, with dirty black stuff and posted. You can imagine my disgust at being shut up in an en- velope. It was a long journey and I was sent from one place to an- other before I was released from the envelope. Then I heard a man say, This goes to the dead letter office, and I was taken into a room with a furnace in it. I quite believe a man who said, HA waste of good paper. And so here I am,-ashes. .

I have a little doggie His name is Teddy, He always comes around When his dinner is ready. I have a little pony His name is Flash, He loves to gallop and trot And make an awful dash. PAT CHESSHIRE, Grade III, Garry Hall. SNOW FAIRY I have many different names But I call myself Snow Fairy. You can see, and sometimes hear me As I fly against your face. I have many different cousins But Ilm the gentlest of them all, For Jack Frost is a cruel fellow Always nipping, always biting, Always painting pretty pictures On the cold and frozen windows. 36 VOX FLUMINIS I X Hoar Frost is a pretty chap But also sometimes cruel. He like Jack Frost is an artist, For he paints the trees and fence-posts All ashining, glittering white. After painting all the trees They look like solid blocks of ice Instead of growing trees. But though these two are pretty chaps Don't you like me best? HELEN MCLEAN, Grade Vg York Hall. MY DOLLS I've only got a small number of dolls. There used to be three in the family but one died. My biggest doll is unbreakable. She hasn't eyes that open and close. Why, I almost forgot to tell you her name. It is a lovely name. Her name is Joan Johnston. She has curly brown hair and big brown eyes. She is rather on the fat side but she's cute. My other doll is smaller. She has real hair. It is made into bangs but is rather tousled. Her name is Louise John- ston. I hope I have them till I grow up. BETTY JoHNsToN, Grade IV, York Hall. THE BIOGRAPHY OF A PAIR OF SHOES One bright starry night a little calf was born in a cozy barn. On the soft hay it lay, and the calf loved it. It was content. But this quiet, peaceful night soon went and everything was alive and noisy. The calf's mother was taken out to pasture and about a week after the calf was allowed to go with her. A year later it was taken to a slaughter house and killed. The skin was made into shoes. One particular pair of shoes was polished brown, and put in a shop-window and left there for a week. One day a tall young man came along and bought the pair of shoes. They were sent in a big truck to a house in one of the suburbs. One day they were taken to a shop where taps were put on.- For two hours every day these shoes were used. They did not mind it for they were well kept. RosAMoND ESLING, Grade VI, York Hall. VOX FLUMINIS 37 Junior Prize Winning Poem A SPRING DAY Tulips and robins herald the spring, The tulips wave, and the robins sing. The leaves which are green slide onto the trees, They wave and wave in the humming breeze. The trees branch up in the loveliest way, And stay near the sky till the end of the day. At night it becomes so blue all around, That if you went hunting, not a bird could be found. At this it ends the pretty day It's very beautiful, I must say.

SUNDAY AT CAMP Sunday at camp is always a delightful day. p The gong goes at eight o'clock, which means that we have to get washed and dressed. We then walk one quarter of a mile up to Crofty, where we have flag raising and the thought for the dayf' Then we all troop in for breakfast, Dinty'l go-ing first, then the Counsellors and the toppers and iinally the campers. After we learn the programme for the day we have an exciting time receiving our mail from Gladys, the camp secretary. We now leave Crofty and go back to our cabins, where we can read our mail and write letters. At eleven 'o clock the gong goes for church, which is held at the lodge, on a rainy day inside, but usually outside in a wooded grove. 38 VOX FLUMINIS ,Ot one o'clock we go back to Crofty, where we have a full course dinner. After dinner we rest for two hours. Then we go to the end of the trail to see if our nose bags are there. If they are, each girl takes a little brown bag containing a half-pint bottle of milk, sand- wiches, cake and some kind of fruit for dessert. When we gather together all the girls who want to come, we can either take the rowboats or tramp through the woods to some neighboring bay where we eat the contents of our nose bags. At seven o'clock we return to the lodge for a sing-song around the camp fire. At nine' o'clock or when the tide is in, we go for a skinny.' After our skinny we dry ourselves beside a bonfire and then retire. SHIRLEY M.

MARGARET WINSTANLEY, Grade Vg York Hall. 40 VOX FLUMINIS Riverbend School, Winnipeg, Man., February 25, 1936 Dear Plum Blossom: ' I received your letter on Thursday afternoon. I am going to tell you about winter in Canada. One day all the birds were flying South, then we knew that winter was coming. All the trees in our yard had gone to sleep and had shed their leaves. The flowers to-o had gone to sleep. Soon little snow-flakes fell. They were soft and were the shape of stars. In the afternoon children came out with their sleighs and pulled each other up and down the street. Some little children built snow- men like their friends. One day there was a Tally-Ho party that came up our street, they threw snowballs at us. We go on hikes and when we get tired we rest and then go skating. I ski at school quite a lot, but never at home. My sister andI are building a fort, we are nearly finished. On the cold nights we have fires to keep us warm. Nearly every week great big snow plows come andclean the streets. We have sweepers too for the street-car tracks. They blow all the snow on to the sidewalks. The people turn their backs when the sweeper comes along for they do not want to get snow in their faces. I will send you some pictures of the sporting in Canada. Your Canadian friend, ELEANOR.

VOX FLUMINIS 41 One day as I was playing near the garden wall With my red and yellow ball, All of a sudden I heard a noise and turned around And sow a dwarf on the ground. He had a green suit, One orange and one green boot. I remember him well,- That little fairy Tinkle-Bell. BETTY J oHNsToN, Grade IV, York Hall. FAIRY LAND As I jump-ed out of bed on Friday morning I had a sudden feeling that something very lovely and important was about to happen. The trees were covered with a thick fairy-like hoar frost andeverything seemed to promise some magic development. Sud- dnly I felt a funny sort of tickling on my leg and, lo and behold! who should it be but a little frost fairy. The fairy was dressed in a white- gauze dress with silver stars scattered on it. She had a silver crown on her head and a silver wand in her hand. She said, Helen, would you like to go to Fairyland? I replied, Why certainly, Fairy Queen fshe looked very much like onej, I'd just love to.', So we got on a cloud and Hokus Pokus! we were in Fairyland. Fairyland was all in hoar frost too. I stayed there two days and I had a lovely time. I hope some day you may have the chance to go to see Fairy Land. HELEN PALK, Grade V: York Hall. MY GARDEN I have a little garden With ponds, where lilies grow, I have a swimming pool, And flowers as white as snow. A little goblin guards it To keep the gnomes away, For every time they ramble in, Get out! is what I say. In the evening when the sun sets My garden's all aglowg In the morning when the dew falls Flowers sparkle in a row.

Then one day I was lifted out of the shop. They took me home and planted me in a black world. Pretty soon I sprouted out a little green stern. Before I knew it I had buds on me, then a little pink flower growing bigger and bigger. I had bloomed. My friends had buds on them. In two days I was picked and was said to be the nicest of all dahlias.

Dear Vox Fluminis: I, your first student editor, am very interested to hear of your well-being, and pleased to re-establish the old contact. Here in London, the old days of our little oiiice, recruited from one of the practice rooms, with its green baize table on which our feet reposed in what we imagined to be true editorial fashion, and the classes missed in order to correct proofs or to dog the heels of possible advertisers-they seem very far away, but none-the-less clear. Since I wrote last April, much has happened. My mother came over to see me and on the day she landed in England I tried the entrance test of the Royal Academy of Dramatics and succeeded in passing it. The following three months formed my first term there. Mother spent a week with us fBetty Dailley and myselfj in our tiny old mews flat, and it formed our base from which we set out on our Jubilee sight-seeing tours and celebrations. On May 9th Mother took her departure for the continent, Betty and I, with many regrets, left our flat to move out of town for the summer, and soon after I began my course at the academy. My work occupied almost all my time. The classes were made up of the most varied types and nationalities of students. There are about three hundred altogether, divided into classes of about twenty. Each new term brings in about sixty new students-three more classes. In our first term we did one Greek play translation, one Shakespeare, and one modern, aside from our classes in fencing, dancing, mime, gesture, diction, voice production, and lectures. The course is supposedly two years, or six terms, but one's progress depends on one's remove', at the end of each term. With any luck one can get a double remove and so shorten the course a bit. I man- aged to do so. Meanwhile Betty was very busy with a course of fashion-design. Summer came on gradually. I remember the day I first heard a cuckoo, out near Harrow, it was so lovely, quite unseen in the woods. We managed to get our driving licenses and several times we rented 44 VOX FLUMINIS a car and drove out on country expeditions. We spent Whitsuntide fone of England's numerous bank holidays, six weeks after Easterj near Windsor, in a little bungalow on the banks of the winding Thames, and went to Magna Carta Island and Runnymede where King John signed the Charter. The International Horse Show at Olympia in June took a lot of my time and money. It was magnificent, the first horses in the world from all over the world, tremendous jumping stakes, and perfect organization. The parks in London were so lovely in the summer, the Serpen- tine in Kensington Gardens, the lake in Regent's Park, dotted with sail boats-little red sails in the sun, andnear the shores the toy boats of little children and old men, and Kew Gardens in lilac time. I made numerous English friends at the academy, but it takes a long time to adopt the customs, standards and ideas of one country to those of a new, more crowded, and socially quite different country, and for the most part Bet and I preferred our own company, or that of other Canadians in London. The summer holidays came at the end of July. Mother and I departed for a series of visits in Yorkshire. We moved around a lot, staying near the sea, and far inland, north and south. We had a particularly nice visit near Cambridge. Then we returned for a week in London, feverishly rushing around, previous to mother's departure. We met Canadian tours in London, went to theatres, concerts and to the Russian ballet, and filled the time to overflowing. Mother said good-bye early in September, and I soon went up to Yorkshire again to stay with friends, riding a lot, for the cubbing season was in full swing, and we spent days following the hounds. We drove out on the Yorkshire moors, wild and bare and ruggedly beautiful with only the yellow gorse and the purple and white heather in bloom. Late in September I came back to London to prepare forthe beginning of term. The autumn was magnificent. We went for drives on the south downs, in Surrey, out to deep and dark Epping Forest with its great huge trees and its carpet of leaves so deep and soft, the beech leaves of hundreds of years were fallen there. We watched the tennis international cup matches--Tilden, Vines, Perry and the others. We went to the modernistic Ballet Jooss, and to the world fencing championships at the Bertrand Fencing Academy. On 4th Cctober, my second term at R.A.D.A. began. It was more strenuous than the first, and doubly interesting. Our rehearsals were in the two theatres instead of in class-rooms as previously. I managed to get a small part in a very bad film, but it was an in- teresting and useful experience, and I learned how filming was done VOX FLUMINIS 45 and what the sets were really like. I made many more and inter- esting friends that term. Christmas was not long in coming. ' In addition to work at the academy, I was rehearsing for the lead in a mine play--written, designed, arranged, and produced by two sisters, friends of mine, and graduates of the Dalcroze School of Eurythmics. It had three performances in January in a small West- End theatre, and through it I was lucky enough to get several valu- able theatrical connections. l Also, I had another academy student started working in con- junction with Sir Richard Paget, scientist, on a new sign language, which he is evolving from all the known sign languages in the world today. It was designed to replace Esperanto, and to be a universal language, easily learned, and which everybody could understand. As there are literally over a hundred sign languages in use today, which differ only slightly and in details, Sir Richard considers that the value of one universal one would be incalculable. We eventually gave a performance of a play to illustrate it, and to it, by invitation came a most novel and varied audience: delegates from the League of Nations, representatives from the ministry of education, officials from the headquarters of the Girl Guides, Boy Scouts, and Deaf Mute organizations, H. G. Wells, the Chinese and Japanese ambassadors, and people from the Imperial Institute of Science. Cn January 20th, at 11.50 P.M., His Majesty King George V died and England went into mourning. The 28th saw the sad and dignified procession wend its way to Windsor amid the hundreds of thousands of people lining the streets along which the royal route lay. Over the heads of a crowd of fifty or sixty deep, from the top of a high step-ladder I watched the impressive march. Betty Dailley left for home early in January and I moved into digs with a friend from the academy. My third term did not begin very auspiciously, for I missed classes for various interviews and auditions in the efforts at getting a job. I succeeded in getting a film test at one of the big studios. That was a very exciting day. I was made up by an expert, with great care, put into the hands of the hair-dresser and then submitted to the tender mercies of produc- tion-manager, andcameraman. It lasted two hours. I stayed for lunch, and on meeting the sound-projection manager, discovered him to be a Canadian. He was very nice, and offered to take me around the other sets where three different films were being shot- one of them Maurice Cheva1ier's latest. I met the great Maurice and his French cast fthe film was done in French and Englishl and later had tea with him. But such adventures, rare though they be, are frowned on by academy authorities, and an effective stop was put to my attempts for professional work until the end of term was reached. However, by now, having go tintroductions to Douglas Fairbanks, Jr.'s com- 46 VOX FLUMINIS pany and British-International Films, I tried what might be done there, with the result that I am now promised something in Paul Robeson's picture, now 'in production, and Douglas Fairbanks, Jr.'s picture starting late in April, and one with Clive Brook playing lead. It is not much, but it may be a beginning-who knows? I am now on holiday, spending a week with my relatives in Kent. After Easter I am going with a friend to Somerset for a fort- night, in the depths of the country, riding and walking and resting, and staying in a lovely old farmhouse in a village, miles away from anywhere, where there is one train a day to a station seven miles away, and one 'bus which goes to meet it. Yes, such places do still exist, in England. Later, I am going up to Stratford-on-Avon to stay with some of the Shakespearean company-old academy friends. After which my fourth and iinal term will begin. It's a great life, of violent contrasts, sometimes exciting and happy, sometimes very unhappy and dull, and very tiring. I only hope that next year, if I am not entirely forgotten, and you ask me for a letter, I shall be able to point something accomplished and say: Look-this have I done -something created, something worth while. Good-bye for this year, Vox Fluminis, good publication and any letters will be very welcome. Your old friend, CARLA LEHMANN, '33. RIVERBEND ALUMNAE NEWS .
