VOX FLUMINIS GRADE VII CLASS NOTES Our room is large and airy, Our pals they number ten, Who really are quite merry When they have no pen. We dread the thought of Monday, But Tuesday is our best, And when we finish Wednesday v We really need a rest. When half the week is over And Thursday is begun We feel that wefre in clover For our week is nearly done. Florence comes along so neat Dancing in her pride, She always asks for things to eat With Marnie at her side. There's lots of fun in Mona-Shirley But trouble this does often bring, She's formed the habit of coming early Which is a very splendid thing. Uh, Carol is a quiet one As sweet as sweet can be And eleven pictures she has drawn Of people off to ski. Winnifred, one of our prettiest lasses, Is very good at all of her classes. She has brown hair, blue eyes and glasses And every year with honor passes. Margaret is an athlete, A scholar and our friend, She always comes to school quite neat And stays until the end. Barbara Ann is her real name, We often call her Bubbles, - She loves a horse with a long white mane But it causes her lots of troubles. Shirley is a jolly girl Who dances all day long, She is as sparkling as a pearl And fills our day with song. Lorna's best when she is skating, In riding she too does well, Of course she's very good at painting, And in our class she does excel.

Q I if X ' '- t uni PHYSICAL EDUCATION THE natural free movements of the very young child supply all that is required in the way of physical education. When, how- ever, the child first comes to school her natural desire for movement is necessarily restricted for purposes of organization and discipline. This restriction must be compensated by frequent opportunities for free movement, which should chiefly take the form of play. The exercises should then be gradually increased until they take the form of regular lessons in all the following types: at Riverbend the Educational and Remedial are given in the form of Pehr Henrik Lingls Swedish System and Neils Bukh's Danish System, to produce discipline, strength, control and courage, recreative in basketball, badminton, volley ball, soft ball, tennis, all organized games and folk dancing, swimming and riding, to make you nice, jolly and happy,--Ha really good sport , aesthetic in natural and Greek Dancing to express by gesture and interpretation. The two main effects we aim at in Physical Education are fly The physical effect on the general nutrition, corrective, develop- mental: 125 the educational effect on the formation of the character and the development of the higher mental and moral qualities. C.L.F. BASKETBALL, 1936-37 ' ITTING in a classroom on the first floor it is not an uncommon H thing for a snoozing student fwhose mind is far enough away anyhowj suddenly to become aware of a herd of elephants on the stampede above her. She grabs for an axe, her only weapon, and is a bit frightened when she finds it to be so small and inadequate. In fact on closer examination it becomes quite clear that she must be a trifle pixilated for it is a pencil she is holding. Don't be a fool, she says and drops off again. But not for long as the sound of elephants' hoofs is getting louder and the pfoor child awakes again. Uttering a war whoop fonly in her fright it doesn't sound quite like Tarzanj, she jumps to her feet. . My dear child, what is the matter? Help at last! The elephants are coming! Well I am not quite sure whether our basketball teams would
