STRUTHERS OAKWOOD BANNERMAN AVENUE EAST WINNIPEG April 21st, 1921. I am very pleased to hear that the friends of the College are soon to be favoured by the return, after six years of silence, of the College Magazine and with fear and trembling I meet your request for my photograph, bearing in mind the recorded fact that the climax of injury and insult to which the Iron Chancellor was forced to submit, upon the occasion of his brutal dis- missal from his high oyjice, came when the late Kaiser sent the Builder of Germany his framed portrait. I am trusting, however, to the kindly remembrances of the young lady managers of the College Magazine for their old Secretary-Treasurer, and believe that their will be kind to his portrait and not treat it in any Bismarkian manner, and further, I want them at the same time to be fully assured that his best and most sincere good wishes for a happy and successful future are ever at the disposal of Rupert's Land Ladies' College. Yours very sincerely, E. A. Struthers. 5 I '1'qJltv,.!r 12 1 1, -w 'n , 1 1 xi., .lt 1 -is L A xo V, A 1 'A '?.a-If Bti 'r-'ul 1 rt' g 1 5 f ' . ..vf--1,-.1 - L- A '- ' . ..

PRINCIPAL'S LETTER Rupert's Land College, April 20th, 1921. My Dear Girls,- A letter seems somewhat unnecessary to those of you whom I meet day by day, but to those who have left our walls it will have more meaning, and in the years to come, when you look back through these pages from your School days, it will remind you of' thoughts and plans and hopes then happily fulfilled. r First, let me say how glad I am to see the Magazine, which diedout suddenly in the first year of the war, rising from its ashes after six years. For the Chronicle alone it is worth keeping up, and the former numbers set a standard which I hope will be maintained and raised by every new issue. It is not possible to trace the course of the six years behind us, years which have changed the map of Europe, and the fate of nations, as well as of so many individual lives. Those of you who have been at School during all those years will realize later what a great gulf is set between then 'and now, and how the time machine has whirled us round the dial of history till we have to struggle for balance and reckoning. Of the great momentous changes I must not write, but some otherscome to mind as I think over the story of our own School. For one, we have changed our name, and in some measure our constitution, since we were affiliated to St. John's College as a Diocesan School. The new name is still hard for the older generation to remember, but it links us up with the history of this Western Province, long before John West, even, came to preach the Gospel to white and red men at the invita- tion of the Great Company. As the name of the Diocese, too, it brings us into closer touch with our branch of the Church, and with our honoured President, the Archbishop, whose interest in and support of the College have been so unwavering. The frontispiece reminds us of another change brought about by the years. Mr. Struthers, who succeeded Col. Rowley as Hon. Secretary-Treasurer of the School, found himself com- pelled, after many years of devotion to our interests, to resign office, not long before the subsequent affiliation with St. J ohn's. Though his health has not allowed many visits to the College . ' 7 - Ruperfs Land College Magazine . ' lately, we gratefully remember his care and kindness during some anxious years and are glad he has allowed us to add his picture to our Magazine gallery. Since we last went to press, in 1915, innumerable changes have taken place in the lives of the College' staff and of girls thenin attendance or just leaving us. It is not possible to mention all of these, from Miss Dalton herself, whom the news of the war brought home to England from Japan, to leave again later for Syria, down to the little First-Formers, whose fathers wrote brief messages to them from France. You will find some of the more peaceful changes of last year set down in the Chronicle, but I should like to dwell rather upon the names of those who, in the midst of change, remain unchanged -our constant, steady friends of the Advisory Board, who have now delegated some of their practical duties to the new Ladies' Board, and colleagues on the scholastic and domestic staff who have helped us to keep the School going through some sunshine and many clouds. Among many of these the names of Miss Crampton, now Mrs. Macgachen, Miss Harding over in England, Miss Horsman in Vancouver, and Miss Hold- itch, happily still with us, come at once to mind, while no one who has ever lived within our walls can forget our daily and constant friend downstairs, whose candy pies still make glad the hearts of Juniors. QNO one but Lizzie has ever had a poetic tribute in these columns repeated by request !J It is only now after the hurrying years behind, that we find ourselves able to measure and weigh some of the results of these years. Most School people, like myself, think that we have sacrificed much in quality to quantity-which means that we are more concerned to accomplish a great deal than to do less both greatly and well. Can you girls help to put this right? Our great Dominion, with its scanty population, scattered over so many thousands of square miles, offers so many oppor- tunities of work and service that later on you may be puzzled to know which path to follow, which road to choose. To be successful in any, make sure that you can do something really well, that your hand and eye and brain are trained and accurate as well as quick. Why else do you suppose that we toil with you so many hours over subjects which not even the teacher can be supposed to enjoy perpetually, unless for this one aim-that Canada may have wiser and more capable citi- zens in the good years that are coming? Land of our birth, we pledge to thee Our love and toil in the years to be are favourite words as you sing them at morning prayers, but I wonder sometimes how far the love and toil are shown in the 8 4 Rupert's Land College Magazine working hours of that very morning, or how often they are postponed to a rosy, distant future. Each one of you would be very properly indignant if accused of not loving Canada, but does your love lead you to such practical results as writing well and spelling well, learning well and drilling well, thinking earnestly and speaking gently, all for Canada? Are the head, heart and hand which you promise to her service being trained and developed by your own patience and care, or merely by the constant driving of your teachers. Does your love for Canada ever make you give up amusements that clash with your work? - Girls naturally think a good deal, sometimes more than is wholesome, about their appearance and dress and the impres- sion that these make on others. These things are important, for they reveal your personality and express it. But if you stop at dress and appearance, as so many do, in a more or less futile attempt to imitate a droll little mannequin in Vogue, you have learnt only the A. B. C. of what girls and women have been compiling through the ages-the Manual of Charm. A shrill voice and careless pronunciation can kill the effect of your pretty dress and marcel wave in just one minute, as far as a trained ear and judgment are concerned. Nervous, rest- less movements, the betrayalon your face of your lack of in- terest in those to whom you are speaking, and the repetition of the empty slang phrase of the moment-all these reveal you at your worst, and no elaborate dressing hides their ugliness. They are just as displeasing as dirty fingernails, or faces plas- tered with pink and white calcimine-as outward, visible signs of a grace that is missing in you, the sense of refinement and beauty of soul. And the only charm that wears and lasts and shows itself in unfailing courtesy and good taste, the charm that draws friends and lovers in youth and worshippers in old age, springs from the heart. The rainbow colours of the diamond, the glow of the ruby, come from within, and are not lent to it by the stonecutter's labour and polish. Can you not sweeten and refine your voice and manners-your heart as well as your head--for Canada? She deserves the bestg can you give it? What are you reading, what are you writing, outside the schoolroom, for Canada? Do your letters, sent home and to your friends, show you at your best? Are they bright and well written, accurate and well expressed, written, in short, to please and interest those who receive them? More than one mother of my acquaintance has precious bundles, tied up, where the faded ink tells a happy, comical tale of ups and downs and a merry heart, that bring a smile or sigh to one's lips- in the reading. Are your letters worth tying up for the days to come, or do they tell a tale of selfish repining, lack of 9 Rupert's Land College Magazine ' purpose, self-indulgence, and doubtful jokes and allusions? Remember, letter-writing is supremely a woman's art, and probably the strongest link between the members of a scat- tered family is the correspondence that a mother or sister keeps up with the absent, so get your pen into training for the years to come. As Anglo-Saxons, of earth's first blood, with titles mani- fold, we have a sacred trust in our great literature, the finest in the world. This great heritage has come to Canada for her to use and increase. You cannot read more than a limited number of books in your span of life. At least be sure that you have read the best, and make an effort to find out these and master them. A good book will remain your friend for- life, but if you seldom climb higher than the Adventures bf Mushie, as depicted by two or three of your favourite best- sellers, you will not only lose one of the purest enjoyments of life, but your thoughts and conversation will lose a great chance of inspiration to yourself and others. The little chitter- chatter around the School would be so much worthwhile if you knew and cared enough about books to discuss and argue about them among yourselves. And your friends at home would give you credit for taste and appreciation never before revealed. And Canada might some day become a nest of ,singing birds, such as England was nearly four hundred years ago, when the invention of printing had given to the world more books than had ever been seen, and the costliness of production limited them to great and worthy themes. And lastly, let the first ingredient in the quality, the fineness of character, for which we must strive, be loyalty. Loyalty to your home and family, to your School and friends, to your city and country, to your chosen rulers and your King, to your Church and your God. I fear that the spirit of our age has worn thin this steadfast and beautiful quality of soul. We criticize and analyze, we half obey or struggle against, we limit and restrict our devbtion to those with whom we live and work in the framework of modern life. Don't criticize your home to outsiders, or your fellow-workers to lookers-on, or your Church organization to non-members, nor overmuch to yourself. If you are not true to these, how can you be faithful to your country, or loyal to Him who claims our thoughts and words as well as our acts for His Great Crusade? May this School year, and every year, help us all to grow worthy of His call and finer and truer in obeying it. Your affectionate friend, EVA L. J ONES. 10 Rupeirtis Land College Magazine EDITORIAL NOTES The ninth number of the Magazine is published after a lapse of five years, owing to war conditions. During 1915-1916 the name of the College was changed to that of Rupert's Land Ladies' College, to avoid confusion with Havergal College, Toronto. A Ladies' Board now assists the Principal in the adminis- tration of the College. Since the close of the war the College has entered upon a fresh era of prosperity, as evidenced by the full attendance in the Day and Boarding School. ' This year has been marked by an unusual number of anniversaries. The Centenary of the Anglican Church in Rupert's Land was celebrated by a pageant designed by our Principal, and two of the Staff and some of the girls took part in it. The celebration of the Hudson's Bay Company's Pageant on the Red River' was witnessed by some of the girls. The unveiling of the Cenotaph was another noteworthy occasion. The health of the School has been unusually good. Confirmation classes were held throughout Lent by the Rev. W. Southam in Holy Trinity Schoolhouse. The Confirma- tion took place on Palm, Sunday. The School has sent contributions to the fund for the starving children of Europe and to the famine areas in China, as well as supplying their usual annual help to the Zenana Mission and the Hay River Mission. At the moment of going to press, preparations are in full swing for what promises to be a most successful entertainment, called the Matric. Moon- shine and for a bazaar convened by Miss Holditch, in aid of the Zenana Mission. The Editors beg to thank all contributors for their help in getting up the Magazine once again, and they hope that the future work of editing it will be lightened by the School Chronicler, a post which has just been created and is to be filled for the ensuing year by Priscilla McBride. 1 CHRONICLE, 1920-1921 May 3, 4 and 5--Red River Pageant in commemoration of the founding of the Hudson's Bay Company, 1670.

In 1820 the Hudson's Bay Company, in conjunction with the Church Missionary Society, sent out the Rev. John West, who arrived at Fort York at the end of August, 1820. On September 3rd, 1820, a birch-bark canoe entered the mouth of the Nelson River going south and carrying the English mis- sionary. Passing via Oxford House he reached Norway House, at the northeast of Lake Winnipeg, a month later. On October 13th, 1820, the little canoe entered the Red River, and after travelling eight hundred miles, on Saturday, October 15th, John West arrived at the Red River Settlement and gave notice of divine service on Sunday, October 16th. These are the dates which were celebrated by the Pageant in the Board of Trade Convention Hall. The words of the Pageant were written by Miss Jones, who also designed the scenes, and arranged many of the costumes. Tableaux were shown depicting the entire history of the Anglican Church from the laying of its foundations in England by Gregory and Augustine to the arrival of John West at Old Fort Garry. These tableaux were supplemented by explana- tory passages recited by Miss Trotter, representing the Spirit of History and Miss Swinford as the Spirit of Memory. Holy Trinity choir supplied several anthems, the musical director being the Very Reverend Dean Coombes. There were twelve pictures in' all, represented by 'some two hundred voluntary actors. Each picture was presented by one of the Anglican parishes in Winnipeg. , The curtain rose on the slave market scene in Rome in 575 A.D., in which Gregory was touched by the beauty of the young Angles and determined that they should be taught the Gospel. , The second picture showed Augustine at Canterbury, 596 A.D., the third, Bede at Yarrow, 735 A.D., the fourth, Edward the Confessor planning Westminster Abbey, 10505 the iifth, Archbishop Langton heading the barons at Runnymede, 1215. - Resolute, stern, the Barons face the King , Shamed-with the purple stained with innocent blood. 14 Rupertls Land College Magazine The sixth picture showed. Wyclif sending out the Lutter- worth tracts in 1375: O , One brave Reformer breaks the selfish ring, 'Food for the flesh,' he cries, 'and for the soul' The bread of God-the truth revealed of old Freed from the mildew of a thousand years. The seventh tableau showed the first Prayer Book being presented to Edward VII., 15495 the eighth, Queen Elizabeth returning thanks for deliverance from the Spanish Armada, 1588,-the-ninth, the Hampton Court Conference, 1611, the tenth, Cowper writing the Olney Hymns, 1768, the eleventh, Henry Martin leaving for India, 1800 3 and the final one, which was the most impressive, the arrival of John West at Fort Garry, 1820. V Westward the tide of Empire takes its way, Westward the white man's feet must ever stray, And ancient wand'ring tribes shall hear the cry Where endless prairies stretch into the sky. Here is Fort Garry, where adventurers bold In earlier seasons bartered pelts for gold- But gave no gift so great-no food so rare- As when they summoned over sea and land That first brave envoy of the Gospel band, Bringing to white and red the Bread of Life- The message of the Fatherhood of God, Redemption through the Son, and grace and power Breathed by the Spirit. Thus were the first fruits sown. And so, today, in our solemnity And high commemoration, let us yield All thanks to God the Giver who hath sent k Abounding fruits of increase. May we live Worthy of all His mercies, worthy, too, Of that fair heritage which He has given In trust for coming ages till that day When all the kingdoms of this world become His kingdoms-and the kingdoms of His Christ. The Pageant was presented three times, and on each occasion the large hall was filled with interested and enthus- iastic spectators. It will long live in their minds as a fitting commemoration of the founding of the Anglican Church, and as an inspiration to uphold and spread in the West the work and service of the Church of England. ' K. F. N. 15 I Rupe'rt's Land College Magazine THE HUDSON'S BAY COMPANY PAGEANT 119202 And in silence all the Warriors Broke the red stone of the quarry, Smoothed and formed it into Peace-Pipes. ' -LongfelloW's Hiawatha. No longer do the Indian chiefs meet around the council fires to smoke the Peace-Pipe of friendship and loyalty. They and their tribes have been driven Westward by the advance of l I i 1 civilization. No more can lumbering Wooden ox-carts be met on the rough prairie roads, as in the old days of our province's history. The herds of shaggy buffalo have passed from the Wide prairies and With these have gone the Wigwams of the Indians. HiaWatha's prediction has been marvelously fulfilled: All the land was full of people, Restless, struggling, toiling, striving. In the Woodlands rang their axes, ' Smoked their towns in all the valleys. ,X 16 Ruperrfs Land College Magazine Last year, however, in celebration of the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the Hudson's Bay Company, some of these old-time scenes were revived. Indians in war-paint and feathers came down the Red River in fur-laden canoes, attend- ed by the York boats, to trade at Lower Fort Garry and to renew their promises of friendship with the Company. Proud, strong men, remnants of the race which once owned Canada, who can tell their thoughts as they passed landmarks made almost unfamiliar by the white men? 1 4 -, . 4 w Y ,- After drawing their canoes up on the shore, they carried their packs up to the fort on their backs. They seemed to dis- dain the crowds of people who were trying to get a glimpse of them. They left their packs in one of the buildings and went out to a large grassy space around a Hag-pole, from which was flying a Canadian and a Hudson's Bay Company flag. 'Other Indians who had driven up the road in Red River carts, drawn by oxen, met them there. ' Sitting in a ring on the grass they solemnly puffed at the long Peace-Pipe as it was passed around to them. One old 17 Rupert's Land College Magazine chief there was more than a hundred years old. His face was a study. Pride, contempt, and, above all, secrecy, were shown in his wrinkled cheeks and bright restless eyes. The Indians had their faces painted, red and blue seeming the favourite colors for these decorations. They wore suits of hides, decor- ated with brightly-colored feathers and beads, and soft moccasins. After they had smoked the Peace-Pipe they sang Indian songs in their queer throbbling language, accompanied by the beating of a drum, and in the evening they held a pow-wow in the fort and danced their native dances. Who will preserve these songs from oblivion? Who will transcribe the strange intervals in their primitive musical forms? Who will gather their art treasures into a permanent home, that all this picturesque color and character may not be lost to those who come after? MURIEL CURRY, , Matric. I. ODE T0 MANITOBA By MRS. H. M. SPEECHLY, WINNIPEG Through misty seas, by treacherous lake and stream There sailed, one hundred years ago, a tiny fleet Of boats from Britain-mother of gallant sons Who love the deep. Borne by the northern breeze, They reached the land of their desire-their chief A man, with prophet's vision, who beheld Cities with spires and towers, like battlements In quivering mirage, raised above the plains. Weary of travel, pastures green they found Near river-bank, whereon to make their homes.- Foes here they met, whom valiantly they fought And overcame, they ploughed with pick and spade, Harrowed with garden-rake, they toiled, they prayed, They dreamed of times when these great lonely plains Should hum with life, should throb with industry, When men should think with pride and gratitude Of those, whose hardships founded Rupert's Land. Then fifty years passed by: far-seeing sons Of Britain, east and west, sent out a call To join and form one country-Canada. And thus the growing middle westernland, Henceforward Manitoba called- a name Which means The Mighty Spirit's Voice - Became the heart of what was soon to be Great Britain's most illustrious daughter state. 18 Rupertis Land College Magazine Another stretch of years! A cry was heard! A nation in distress, nigh overwhelmed, Was calling out for help. An evil thing, Long nursed in Europe's breast, had burst its bounds, And threatened to engulf humanity! Quick in response to that soul-stirring call, Britain with her Dominions sprang to arms. Five hundred thousand brave Canadian sons- Cln Manitoba seventy thousand strong!!- Left all they loved, and heeding not the loss Of wealth or life, rose to the greatest heights Of chivalry and helped to stem that tide. These were plain citizens of Canada! Some have returned safe from the Gates of Death, , Others have passed within: yet were their woes And dire distress no useless sacrifice. From their 'triumphant anguish has been born A nation-Canada. The noblest things In life are ever won in agony. That will make glow the souls of multitudes, The deeds of these great men are sparks of fire And blaze new trails through forests of despair And discontent-broad trails to point the way Through gloom and dim uncertainty to Light, Through warring strife to Peace. Q 1 l-in NATIONAL FOLK-SONGS The origin of folk-music has been a subject of much dis- cussiong some say that the songs were composed by individ- uals and have been handed down by oral tradition. Others hold that they were the production of a community, that owing to their naturalness, simplicity and spontaneity, they cannot have originated from the popular music of bygone days, which lacks all the outstanding qualities of the folk-song. The music of a nation is based on folk-music, or the tunes that are handed down from generation to generation. The songs of a country illustrate the character of its people. All their simple pleasures, their history, politics and wars, their joys and sorrows are expressed in them. For example, the Irish songs are overflowing with humour and pathos-they show that nation's struggles for liberty and the deep emotions felt by the Celtic heart. The earlier British folk-music comprises The Robin Hood Ballads in England, and the Border Minstrelsy, revived by Sir W. Scott, which contained that well-known poem of the 19 Rupert's Land College Magazine I Border, Chevy Chase. In France, Marlbrouk was several hundred years old before Marie Antoinette adopted it, when she heard her nurse singing it to her baby. It became very famous, and Napoleon sang it on his Way to Russia, and at St. Helena. Throughout the middle ages, troubadours in France and Germany, and strolling minstrels in England, sang the songs of the people. We read that Blondel found Richard of the Lion Heart by singing a popular tune outside the Windows of all the great castles in Europe. In Roumania and Serbia the peasants in their gay costumes still dance on Sundays to their folk- tunes. ' In the seventeenth century, this type of music was in great favour. Tinkers sang catches, such as Three Blind Mice g milkmaids sang ballads, carters whistled, in fact, each trade had its own special songs. There was music during both X WF' EN it LPN -lla x.-.lla--. Q-,, ..J,lly, x.-. - 11,55 Fmncss Bananas. 20 Rupertls Land College Magazine night and day. Among the folk-tunes of the period, many are Well-known, as The Bailiff's Daughter of Islington. In 1650, the English Dancing Master was published, containing many lively country dances, among them being Come, Lasses and Lads, and Sir Roger de Coverleyj' which both indicate the English character. They express very little pathos or even humour, but are undemonstrative, and reveal none of the finer feelings' of human nature, such as may be found in The North- Country Maid, and Early One Morning. The beautiful Drink to Me Only was of courtly origin. Ever since the time of Elizabeth the English navy has been World-famous, and the songs of Jack Tar have immortal- ized its prestige. Two of the best known tunes are Rule Brit- annia, and Hearts of Oak. About the same time, Henry Carey composed the National Anthem, and Sally in Our Alley. 1 'll A ..

The Harp That Once, and the Minstrel Boy show the Irish longing for freedom and liberty. Ye Banks and Braes, Auld Lang Syne, and Coming Through the Rye are probably all by Burns. It is rather interesting to know that the five-toned scale, used in the first two of these songs, was also employed by the Chinese about four thousand years ago. ' Many songs have been prompted by history or politics, as The Marseillaise, and Lillibu1:1ero. The former was com- posed by Claude Joseph Rouget de Lisle in 1792. His mother was a Royalist, and as such he himself was forced to flee to the mountains of Jena. There he heard his song, and asked his guide its name. He then learnt for the first time that it had become famous as the Marseillaise hymn. It shows all the intensity of feeling in the French Revolution. To this group Ireland has contributed The Wearing of the Green, and Cornwall Shall 'Trelawney Die? while America has given Yankee Doodle. . Stephen Foster's pseudo-negro melodies were very popular in America about 1860, and Nelly Bly is a good example of the street song of that period. My Old Kentucky Home is a favourite ,with all. The real negro songs are in the minor key, and are full of deep melancholy, and often of religious feeling. The early German folk-songs were nearly all drinking songs, but these no longer appeal to us. Most of their later songs, however, have very exquisite music-as for example, The Wild Rose, by Schubert. Oh, My Dear Old Augustine is hardly of this class, but it and The Broken Ring and many other sentimental love-ditties are very popular. The Red Sarafan is a typical Russian national song. The Sarafan was the bridal head-dress of the peasants, and this song is one of the most famous of Central Russia. The Slavic music is weird and fantastic with a melancholy and fatalistic undertone. The Russian boating and logging songs are less famous, and show the occupations of the people. The Neapolitan songs are all boating songs, because so much of the Italian's life is spent on the water. They are very beautiful, perhaps the most popular is Santa Lucia. Sweden and Norway have also contributed many songs to the world's collection, which show the characters and interests of their people. . Canada, being a new country, has fewer folk-songs than the European nations. The French-Canadians, however, are responsible for Alouette, En Roulant Ma Boule, and A La Claire Fontaine. The lumbering life of Eastern Canada, and the travels of the voyageurs on the St. Lawrence and Ottawa Rivers, are shown in the boating songs, such as The 22 A Rupertls Land College Magazine Canadian Boat Song. The Indians and Esquimaux also have their songs and chants, and probably, in a few years' time, our country will be famous for its folk-songs. ' The marching songs of different countries are always interesting. The nineteenth century military type of music is shown in The Girl I Left Behind Me. Modern songs, as those of the Great War, belong to this class. It's a Long Way to Tipperary, and Keep the Home Fires Burning, will long be remembered, and they are truly marching songs, being simple, primitive and sentimental, just as are all the earlier ones. These few examples of national folk-songs show that long before operas, which are attended by the more or less educated class, were being composed, popular music was developing. The songs illustrate the character, life, trials, occupations, and joys of the people 'who used to sing them first, and as such are treasured today. They were not the care- ful work of great composers, but the spontaneous voice of the people. I MARY MACHRAY, Matric. II. MY VISIT T0 THE BATTLEFIELDS With my parents and sisters I left London on June 25th, 1920, at 11.30 a.m., arriving in Dover at 1.30, after which we had a splendid voyage across the Channel to Calais. Arriving in Calais we took the train to Calais proper, where we went for a drive, and our first view of German des- truction was a tumble-down school or convent, which the Ger- mans had bombed when it was full of children. We left for Lille by train at 6 p.m., arriving at 8, and spent the night at the Hotel d'Europe. The next morning our courier informed us that we had occupied the suite of rooms used as headquarters by the Crown Prince of Germany and General Ludendorf during the German occupation of that city. After breakfast we motored around Lille, which we found not so badly destroyed as other places. Then we followed the Roubaix road, where the destruction and desolation on all sides was terrible for many miles, in many prosperous towns not a single building remained wholeg the people lived in cellars that would give them any kind of shelter, and also in dugouts the soldiers had used. We motored right on through Tourcoing, where the fighting had been less severe and the country had recovered to the extent of cultivation. After leaving Tourcoing the next place reached was Menin, which is situated half in Belgium and half in France. We haltedhere for some time to watch the procession of la 23 Ruperfs Land College Magazine Fete de St. Jean, which was of a very pretentious order, and a great crowd had gathered to watch it. It had been the first of its kind since the war, and the evidence of sorrow was shown everywhere by the crepe veils worn by the women and the black frocks of the children. . We motored back to Lille going by Ypres Cwhich is one mass of ruins owing to the many battles fought therej, Mt. Kemmel, Bailleul-the lace centre of Flanders-and Armen- tieres. i Arriving back at Lille we took the train to Arras. All along the railroad the destruction and desolation are indescrib- able. Arras had suffered terribly, there was only one hotel and we were glad we had secured our accommodations before- hand. The French are famous for their comfortable beds,'so that bare floors and curtainless windows did not trouble us, for we knew that what we had was luxurious, considering the con- dition of the country. ' We motored all day on June 28th, which was my sixteenth birthday, in the direction of Vimy Ridge and Lens. The destruction along this line was terrible and all the wells had been poisoned, so that not even a glass of water could be indulged in with safety. I can assure you that Winnipeg water would have tasted good that day. ' We visited Bois Carres cemetery, which is not far from Arras, where a Winnipeg boy whom we knew very well was buried, and we had the opportunity of planting some flowers on his grave. With Arras as our headquarters, we spent three days motoring around the surrounding districts, where we saw much that was interesting and also much that was trying and depressing. We proceeded to Albert, motoring along the Somme, where may places are marked only by mine craters. On the way we saw a big dugout, which was from eighty to one hun- dred feet below the ground. It housed over three thousand soldiersand their equipment. It was lit by electricity and also had telephones. I am sure the soldiers must have thought it a palace, but we were glad to get out of it. .At Albert we stopped at a Y.M.C.A. Hostel and had a re- freshing lemonade, which was the first we had tasted since leaving America. We motored on to Amiens, where we spent the night. In the morning we left for Paris and spent one day there. We took the train for Saar Valley, which is a ten-hour run from Paris, arriving in Saarbrucken on the evening of July lst, where we spent a few days with ex-Mayor Waugh and his family. The comparison between the desolation of France and the beautiful growth of Germany is striking. Germany is like 24 Ruperfs Land College Magazine a great big garden, the sight of which made us feel very bitter towards the Germans after the terrible destruction of the war area. After a delightful week spent with Mr. and Mrs. Waugh we returned to Paris, where we spent another week. Then we returned to London via Calais and Dover on July 14th. I VVINONA MILTON, Matric. I. .........,..... NOVA SCOTIA The early history of the Province of Nova Scotia has been well written by eminent writers and is, no doubt, fairly well known to all Canadians. There is, however, just one little feature about this history that many forget, and that is the fact that, with one exception, Nova Scotia can boast of the oldest settlement in North America. The little town of Anna- polis Royal was founded by a Frenchman in 1604 and called Port Royal. Tradition has it that a small settlement was made in Cape Breton as early as 1541, but this may not be authentic. The struggles between the French and the English for possession of what is now Nova Scotia, from the year 1604 until it was finally captured by Col. Francis Nicholson for the English in 1710-the concession being later confirmed by the Treaty 'of Utrecht-makes some of the most interesting read- ing in Canadian literature. Some of the remains of the old forts, that figured so conspicuously in this history, still exist today, and are visited yearly by thousands of interested tour- ists. Port Royal remained the seat of government until 1749, when Halifax was founded, a civil government being estab- lished in that port by Col. Edward Cornwallis. The expulsion of the Acadians in 1755 by the English, on account of their refusal to take the oath of allegiance to the then English King, is possibly the best known fact of the history of the Province. This story will, no doubt, out- last that of any that has for its theme an historical event on account of the way in which Longfellow has set it down in his poem Evangeline In fact today the Province, or at least a section of it, is better known to our neighbors across the line as The Land of Evangeline than The Province of Nova Scotia. Few people who visit the Province miss seeing this famous section, and indeed few are disappointed. Although Longfellow had never personally seen the country of which he wrote, he was given such an accurate and detailed picture of it that his story remains today one of the most meticulous des- criptions of any land or people. Although Nova Scotia is small as compared to any of the large Western Provinces, it contains within its boundaries pos- 25 Ruperfs Land College Magazine sibly more wealth than any of the larger ones, and certainly a greater variation in the pursuits of its inhabitants to gain a livelihood. It is very much easier to mention what is not done than what is done. Certain sections of the country are ex- tremely wealthy in almost all minerals of commercial use, and the coal areas in both the Peninsula and the Island of Cape Breton have as yet barely been touched. Two large steel plants have their home in the Province, as well as many smaller foundries and factories turning out practically every- thing that is required for business or the home. As to topography, the country is for the most part un- dulating and broken in the eastern end, where are found the mines and manufacturies. In the western half are found the beautiful and fertile valleys where the famous Nova Scotian apples are grown. While the scenery can hardly be termed grand, yet there are some spots that will compare very favorably in rugged beauty with any country in the world, and in the western sec- tion, when the various fruit orchards are in blossom, it is doubtful if its peaceful rural beauty could be surpassed. The people are practically all descendants of the English, Scotch, Irish, French and German settlers, and, as for all time practically no other language than English has been taught in the schools, it would be hard to find any adult in the country who does not speak English, or one who cannot read and write it. The Nova Scotian is very properly proud .of the edu- cational system in the Province. In addition to the ordinary public school, each county has an Academy, where students are prepared for the University. There are also a number of splendid private schools and seminaries located throughout the Province. While the Universities, of which there are four- Dalhousie, Acadia, Kings, and St. Francis Xavier-cannot boast of the equipment of the larger Canadian and American Universities, they afford an opportunity to obtain higher edu- cation at a low cost. As this paper is written by a Nova Scotian, it does not seem proper to draw attention to its men and women who have figured so prominently in the affairs of Canada. It is, how- ever, a well-known fact that this Province has produced more than a fair share of statesmen and lawmakers. This may be attributed broadly to two things-the class of people who first settled the country, who were the best of their respective nationalities, and to the educational system. The very charac- ter of the country demands work from him who will succeed, and this, perhaps, has much to do with the character of its inhabitants. Spend your next summer holidays in Nova Scotia and see 26 Ruperfs Land College Magazine the great tides of the Bay of Fundy rolling in twice each day, see the big steel plants and coal mines, but do not forget to see the spot-to many of us the most enchanting in the world -where the beautiful Evangeline dipped from the well sur- rounded by the old French willows Cstill standing as in her timej the cooling draught for the handsome son of Basil the Blacksmith. J. A. LEAGUE OF THE EMPIRE Q With the double object of introducing the League of the Empire and of reviving an interest in geography, the Lower V. Form, under Mrs. Newton, in the Christmas term undertook a correspondence with girls in various parts of the Empire. The Empire movement was inaugurated in 1907 by the Earl of Meath to observe Empire Day, May 24th. He then said it was intended that the Empire celebrationfxshall be the outward sign of an inner awakening of the peoples who con- stitute the British Empire to the serious duties which lie at their door. 'The motto of the comrades of the League is: One King, one Flag, one Fleet, one Empire. ' British citizens should: 1. Love and fear God. 2. Honour the King. 3. Obey the laws. 4. Prepare to advance the high- est interests of the Empire in peace and war. 5. Cherish pat- riotism. 6. Regard the rights of other nations. 7. Learn citi- zenship. 8. Follow duty. 9. Consider duties before rights. 10. Acquire knowledge. 11. Think broadly. 12. Practise dis- cipline. 13. Subdue self. 14. Work for others. 15. Consider the poor and the suffering. All the prominent English schools are members of the League of Empire. The girls write to their overseas com- rades. In this way schools of the Empire may be linked. In December each girl in the Lower V. wrote to a comrade of a school in a British colony. She asked for information and views of the town and enclosed Canadian views and stamps. As a result, two girls have already had replies from Notting Hill School, London, and Woodside House School, Georgetown, British Guiana, while other members of the form are expect- ing letters from Tasmania, Malta, Wei Hai Wei, Durban, Cal- cutta, Hong Kong, Bombay, Christ Church CN.Z.J, Khartum, Columbo and Cape Town. Should any girl also wish to write to a comrade, exchang- ing letters, postcards, and stamps, she has merely to address herself to a comrade of the League of Empire, at the high school, town and country of her choice, and she will undoubtedly receive a reply. K F N 27 Rupertls Land College Magazine A I THE CENOTAPH A year after the war was over, the Women's Canadian Club in this city had a cenotaph erected, that is, an empty tomb built in remembrance of war heroes, buried elsewhere. The ceremony of unveiling the cenotaph was performed by Mrs. A. Code at noon on Sunday, June 13th, 1920. Dean Coombes and Miss Jones composed the dedicatory prayers, and Lady Aikins laid the first wreath at its base. ' The cenotaph was erected on the corner of Portage and Main, the busiest corner in the city, where everyone passing could see it. It is built of white cement in the shape of a large tomb- stone, and all the most important and decisive battles of the war are engraved on the sides. Underneath and running all the way around, is a low platform, and on this are placed the wreaths and flowers given in remembrance of The Glorious Dead. The cenotaph has fulfilled its purpose. It reminds us, in our hot, dusty city, of the supreme price paid for the life we live. Also by providing an opportunity of lay-ing flowers at its base on the anniversaries of the battles, and by the pride awakened at the remembrance of their sacrifice, some measure of comfort is brought to the hearts of the mourners. V ' HELEN GRUNDY, ' Upper V. -v MISSION NOTES e The Hay River Mission-Our interest in the Hay River Mission on the Great Slave Lake, where we support two little girls, was much stimulated by the annual letter from Mr. Vale, which told of the year's work, and the needs of the Mission. The need for new workers, which is felt throughout the whole missionary world, is most urgent there. Atlthe Hay River Mission there are about forty Indian children, twenty girls and twenty boys. Besides the usual school lessons, the boys are instructed in carving and other trades, while the girls are taught to sew and keep house. For the last few years we have arranged a sports after- noon to raise the annual funds in support of Lena Kunnana and Maria No Tears. The races last year, under the charge of Lower V., were ably conducted, and both onlookers and par- ticipants thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon. Miss Hopkin's Aunt Sally was an innovation which provided much amuse- ment, and Upper V.'s home-cooking stall was another new fea- ture which was well patronized. The rest of the school ran ice ' 28 Ruperfs Land College Magazine cream and soft drink parlours, an afternoon tea-room, a candy booth, a fancy work stall, and the little ones' fish pond was al- ways surrounded by eager fishers As the time for the yearly fete draws near, let us relax no effort to make it a' greater success than ever. Last year we decided to give the proceeds of our Lenten self-denial boxes to this Mission, which enabled us to send an extra 350.00 in addition to the usual 3100.00 and the bale of Christmas presents, which arrived this year in good time. 'Other Activities-This year we have decided to donate the proceeds of the Lenten boxes to the relief of starving children in Central Europe. The tales of distress and urgent need which reached us this winter could not be overlooked and the School has raised 3154, which was sent immediately. At Christmas the little kindergarten children donated the proceeds of their missionary box, 36.74, chiefly coppers, to the starving Chinese children. The most Junior form in the School thus sets a good example in being ready for any sudden need, which other Junior forms might well imitate, while the Senior forms might emulate the example of Matric I. and Upper V:, who each adopted a poor family at Christmas, whom they provided with clothing, Christmas dinners and a Christ- mas tree, which they themselves decorated the day before Christmas. . The Girls' Zenana Guild-Last year our officers were: Honorary President, Miss Holditchg President, Gertrude Hy- song Secretary-Treasurer, Kathleen Ryan. Much interest was shown in the cause. The girls sewed diligently for the sale of work which took place on February 13th, when the Dramatic Club gave Scenes from the Rivals. This performance was a great success, both artistically and financially, enabling the Guild to donate an extra 3100 towards Dr. Landon's salary and the Memorial Dispensary at Nasik, as well as sending the annual 330 support for the little girl, Nanu Hisan, at Manmad School. We specially commend the efforts of Charlotte Coun- sell, Frances Douglas and Ferri Dalrymple, who, by polishing shoes, selling Christmas cards and golliwogs, raised nearly 310.00. Owing to the depreciation in exchange and the results of war conditions, we were specially pleased to give more assistance than usual. This year our President is Mary Norquay, with Ferri Dalrymple as Secretary-Treasurer. Again individual girls are showing much interest. The posters of Johnny, the Shoe- Shine and Cutie Cuticle, attract much interest, and bring cus- tom to Charlotte Counsell and Winnie Mackay, which add to the Guild's funds. Miss Campbbell, the Societyis Organizing Secretary for Western Canada, visited us in February. Her talk to the Guild was much appreciated, and we specially enjoy- 29 Ruperfs Land College Magazine ed her many pictures, which included views of the Manmad Girl Guide Corps and their baseball game! Our sale will be on April 15th, when we look forward to seeing the entertainment, Matric Moonshine, which Miss Rose is kindly organizing in Matric I. and II. forms. During the years of the war it was found impossible to send parcels of clothes to India, consequently we devoted our energies to working for a sale each year. Now, however, it is again possible to send parcels and we hope that the Boarders, who compose the Guild, will again, as, in former years, organize a sewing band to make garments for the babies and children at N asik and Manmad. Mission Address-We were very much pleased that Bishop Stringer found time to join us at prayers when in Winnipeg for the Centenary celebrations. He gave us a most interesting account of his pioneer work among the Esquimaux. N o Junior will forget his account of Esquimaux cooking, while the older girls were much impressed by the change in attitude of the Esquimaux to the missionary, whom he now regards as a friend to be helped instead of a stranger to be swindled. -11. St. Peter's Mission, Hay River, Mackenzie River District, Miss Eva L. Jones, January 3rd, 1921. Principal, Rupert's Land Ladies' College, Winnipeg, Man. Dear Miss Jones,- Your letter of June 28th, 1920, containing postal orders for the sum of S'p150.00, reached me on December 26th, 1920. I hasten to reply by return mail and gratefully acknowledge same. I regret the delay caused you by the letter having been returned uncalled for at Peace River. That route is not the mail route. It is sometimes the route for the freight or ex- press. I do not think it will be used in the future. The address on the last letter is correct-Hay River, Mackenzie District, N.W.T. It was exceedingly good of you all to think of us and send the extra 350.00 for the comfort of the staff, Mrs. Vale and myself. I assure you, on behalf of all, it is much appreciated and I will let you know later on how the money is spent. The reply coupon is being sent by this same mail and I trust it may reach you safely. I think by a former mail I told you of the receipt of the box of Christmas things. I can now tell you of the very great 30 Ruperfs Land College Magazine pleasure we all had in partaking of them at Christmas. The children gave a little entertainment for the first time and it was a great success and enjoyed by all. Please convey to all the kind donors the very best thanks from all the staff, the children, and myself.. ' Yours very sincerely, ALF. J. VALE, Principal. St. Peter's Mission, Hay River, Mackenzie River District, Q. November 24th, 1920. My Dear Miss Jones,- ' I am going to write a letter to you and thank you for those things that you sent me. I am writing my letter out of school because we are in a hurry to finish quick. The children are getting ready for the Christmas concert and the workers, too. Miss Page is going to be Mother Goose and Miss Austin is going to be Little Jack and they are all going to dress differ- ent, but not me, because I can't walk and I just 'have to do the little things that I can do, mend the clothes or sew beads, do the little things like that. Miss Samwell is teaching us in school now and Miss Booy is busy looking after the sick people. Please excuse me for my bad writing. Now, I must close my letter. Good-bye. From your loving friend, V LENA KUNNANA. GIRL GUIDES - A company of Girl Guides was organized in the School at the beginning of the Autumn term, under the -guidance of Capt. Baker. After several weeks' work learning the required tests, which include a knowledge of the history of the Union Jack and the learning of our Guide laws, with a course in tying knots, seven Guides were enrolled, four of whom are now use- ful Patrol Leaders in our rapidly growing company. Nine more girls have been enrolled this term. Our patrol competitions are perhaps the most amusing part of the Guide work at present. It is during the last few minutes of our meeting that the Daffodils are successful in guessing the weight of irons or pacing and measuring the length and breadth of the room, or the Red Roses compete 31 Rupert's Land College Magazine - ' with the Forget-Me-Nots in an obstacle race over and under benches, tying knots and Guide scarfs, drawing a flag and writing the Guide law corresponding to a given number, or perhaps it is a memory puzzle which gives the Scarlet Pimper- nels a chance to show their skill. We have also enjoyed two exciting tracking expeditions through River Park. Three went in front, the rest of us following later in their tracks with the assistance of hidden instructions and various other signs, find- ing at the end of our tramp the hidden treasure and a very welcome fire. To our company has been lately added a pack of Brownies, under eleven and over seven years, guided by Lieut. Aikins. and a Pack Leader, one of our first 'seven Guides. They are work- ing hard, hemming their scarfs and learning their tests, and hope to be enrolled as real Brownies soon. Some readers may like to know a little of what Girl Guid- ing means. The word Guide was chosen because our aim is to be useful and to help others, to be guides to the people around us and to the future generations. It is not of much use wanting to help unless you know how to go about itg that is why we work for badges, such as ambulance, sick nurse, laundress, cook or needlewomang we want to know how to help and be really efficient guides. .

Kilvert THE MOVING FORCE ' At some time or another the majority of us have admired the effortless efhciency of a great machine. We have won- dered how all those complicated individual parts, seemingly disconnected, all worked together for the common task. It was not difficult to conclude that the same force directed all these parts, connecting, organizing and co-ordinating. Hence we decide that directed energy produces unity, and out of unity comes efficiency. Each human being is a mechanism composed of' so much 32 Raperfs Land College Magazine bone, so much tissue, an adequate complement of limbs and organs. Directing the functions of these different parts is an animating force called variously, Soul, Mind, Personality, or- best of all-Spirit. Just as a machine with the power turned off becomes just so much steel and iron, inert, useless and cumbersome, so the human body deprived of this life-giving force becomes so much matter, subject to death, dissolution and final decay. The energy inhabiting each of us causes us to move, speak, breathe, makes us alive. What is true of the individual is true of the group. School, college, regiment, athletic club-any body of people grouped together for the accomplishment of a common pur- pose must be animated and inspired with this intangible, but very apparent, esprit de corpsg if esprit de corps be lacking the purpose will not be achieved nor the body alive. Perhaps you will say, This is highly desirable, but- how may esprit de corps be found and fostered ? My answer is By pride and knowledge. First by pride--pride in your in- stitution and pride in yourself. Each ofiicer and recruit on joining a regiment is taught the history and traditions of that regiment. He learns to be proud of the badge in his cap, the battle honors on the regimental colorsg he is thrilled to bear home the crest which was won, and to be one with heroes of the past who paid for those honors with their lives. This is to him the highest boast he has. Out of his knowledge has come pride in the institution to which he belongs. Next comes pride in himself. To be a worthy member of his regiment requires certain things hard to acquire. Drill is irksome, constant discipline discouraging. Knowledge of him- self as hitherto lax in smartness, perhaps lazy, careless and unpunctual, impresses upon him the necessity of drill and dis- cipline before pride in himself is won. Gradually he develops into a soldier-alert, smart and a worthy member of a worthy company. Pride and knowledge have produced esprit de corps. i -So with members of Rupert's Land College. Your School has a motto, learn it and its significanceg learn the purpose and hopes of its founders. By its individual members an institu- tion is judged. Let each one of you resolve that never will you allow, by word or action, the School to be-harshly judged. 33 Ruperfs Land College Magazine B There is a poem called The British Soldier in China, that sums up in five short verses what this long article tries to say. A rough private soldier in the East Kent Regiment was cap- tured by the Boxer .rebels and offered his freedom on condition that he would kowtow -that is bow with his forehead in the 'dirt-to the Chinese chief. Refusal meant a death of torture and ignominy. Crass materialism would argue, why not? It is merely a physical bowing before this rebel, and the soldier is free to serve his King again. The young solider was tempted-he thought how easy a thing it would be to save his life-but he knew it was a disgraceful thing. The poet des- cribes his decision: . Poor, wretched, rude, low-born, untaught, Bewildered and alone, A heart with English instinct fraught He still can call his own. Aye, tear his body limb from limb, Bring cord, or axe, or flame, He only knows that not by him A Shall England come to shame. ' I always believe that the soldier really felt that not by him should the East Kent Regiment come to shame, for out of the esprit de corps that produces regimental pride grows the patriotism that wins Empires. And what is the result? An institution strong in the possession of happy prideful members, a frictionless working together of these members towards the common purpose, and a triumphant achievement of that purpose. Alta Petens - Seeking the heights. Your founders were seeking the heights when they started your School. Here on the prairies in the Western country, with all its strengths and all its crudities inherent in a new country, Havergal College was founded to educate liberally and train earnestly Canadian girls to be Canadian women for the great future that awaits us. This future will have its problems. See to it that you bear your part in the solution of these pro- blems sanely and courageously. Your mothers and grand- mothers by bravery, faith and steadfast trust have won for you an heritage. Your years in Rupert's Land are to fit you for that heritage. The School works for you, loves you and longs to be proud of you, love your School, work for it, be worthy of it. Animated by this moving force, this esprit de corps, each of you will benefit by your years in School, will imbibe its teaching, so that throughout life you will be seeking the heights. Then will the purpose of the School be achieved -the making of gentlewomen worthy of our country's ideals and capable of helping her destiny. 34 Rupefrt's Land College Magazine FOLK SONGS AT CHRISTMAS . As an ending to the Christmas term, the Senior forms enacted some picture folk songs. The songs were mostly national, or Well-known ones from different countries, and While chosen players acted the songs on the stage, the choir, which Was Well trained by Miss Rose, sang behind the scenes. The performance started with Bonnie Doon and Annie Laurie. Margaret Black made a very handsome young man and captured the hearts of several of the audience. Mary Norquay played the part of Annie Laurie with great ability. Then in the darky songs Winnie McKay was excellent as the famous Nellie Bly and other darkies helped her in My Old Kentucky Home. Ireland was represented by the Minstrel Boy and The Harp that Once Through Tara's Halls, the latter being sung with a great deal of expression by Miss Rose, While a tableau was acted on the stage. Gay France was there with Pierrot in his nightcap and candle in hand, sending away the merrymakers, who finally came in and insisted on Pierrot joining in their pretty dance, which they sang to Sur le Pont. Charlotte Counsell was very amusing and lifelike as Pierrot. The Red Sarafan and A Song of the Haulers on the Volga were Russian, the Russian peasant scene being very typical of the time. Ruth Maggrah and Kay Ryan represented the two charming daughters of the Russian mother, typified excellently by Edith Mawdsley. ' As the climax we had England. Margaret Lang and Pris- cilla McBride proved very clever actresses in Drink to Me Only With Thine Eyes, while one of the prettiest scenes was the old English May-pole dance, which the dancers tripped to the strains of Lasses and Lads. Thelma Kelly was there as the fiddler, which added a genuine touch. The finale was a Christmas Carol. Margaret Whyte im- personated Good King Wenceslas, While Trixie Stethem was the page. This Was executed extremely Well, the choir and other participants filing onto the stage to sing a well-known carol. A small Pierrot and Pierrette then presented Miss Jones and Miss Rose with roses, and everyone agreed they had Well earned them. MARJORY GLAssCo, V.a. 35 Rupert s Land College Magazine MATHEMATICAL WRINKLES or The Teacher's Mistake Seven times eight are fifty-six Instead of sixty-five. Sally Ann, you really are The most stupid child alive! Six plus twelve do twenty make 5 Seven more make twenty-nine. To the teacher's face no dimples came- Just wrinkles, and a line Appeared between her tired brows, Her face expressed the pain Caused by the fact that well she knew Her teaching was in vain. To Mary then she hopefully turned, Knowing by Mary's look That all her -sums must be worked out In her tidy exercise book. The same addition sum she asked And awaited the result, But for Mary, too, the sum had proved By far too difficult. Yet Mary would not be convinced That her answer could be wrong, And felt that when her teacher heard Her reason, sound and strong, That teacher would at once exclaim, Oh dear, 'twas my mistake, And then immediately begin Apologies to make. My Daddy did these sums, said May, So I might go to bed, Saying if they're on paper, 'tis As good as in my head. The teacher smiled, for now she saw A method wrong she'd had. To teach addition to the babe She should begin with Dad. 36 L.E.S Ruperfs Land College Magazine G1H1flPSE'S oF The GOOD cmd 1 ' IE9eFo1'e W Q. N.Scol'iu 1 U60 'DMG GREBT. D Caffe?

The teacher had not started the lesson, in fact, had not finished calling the roll. Discovered that I had taken the Wrong seat in my haste. Changed my place, fell over Mary's foot on the Way and dropped my books. Finished collecting books. Sat down. My seat made a bang as usual, but I didn't do it. Looked everywhere for my pen. Asked Mary if I had left pen where books were dropped. Stood up to look for my pen, but sat down in obedience to one of those looks from teacher. . Saw Kathleen using my pen. Beckoned Kay, making signs for it. Got another of the teacher's looks. Tried by my expression to show I was hurt at the teacher's injustice. Obtained pen from Kay in one bound While the teacher was Writing on the blackboard. Ignored Kay's protests and the teacher's inquiring looks. Looked in desk for pencil. Discovered pencil would not Write at any angle. Endeavored to sharpen pencil by suction and masti- cation. The teacher having paused to look at Kathleen, I went to platform and asked permission to sharpen pencil. After three trials managed to obtain a nice sharp point. The machine did not make more noise than usual, so it was only meanness on teacher's part to stop talking until I had finished. Went to my desk, knocking over Frances' books. She will put them in the way. Asked if I could fill my ink Well. The ink flowed over the desk and through to my books. It comes out so quickly. Looked about for blotting paper. Three girls handed me theirs. Asked if I might go out to Wash my hands. 39 ege M agazihe Q9 J I K Q? 9.02 - 1 N. 6, 3 JN w ga s wx:-49.41 f X Wg? ll- sp X 4o 9.25 9.26 9.27 9.28 9.29 9.30 9.31 9.32 9.33 9.34 9.35 9.36 9.37 9.38 9.39 9.40 9.41 9.42 9.43 9.44 9.45 9.46 9.47 9.48 . Ruperfs Land College Magazine Met Isabel from L. IV. Shared the towel with her and discussed the latest hockey match. Came back. Asked if I might copy from the next girl's book what I had missed. Could not read her writing. Asked the teacher to go over it again. The teacher showing signs of temper again. Felt it my duty to smile kindly. Discovered shoe-lace undone and tied it carefully. Picked up pen which had rolled over my book when I had bent down. Blotted the ink marks made by pen. Received another unkind look. Shook my head and stroked my hair back. Bending to tie a shoe-lace always makes it necessary to do this. Felt that' my hair was untidy on the left side and combed it a little. Combed hair on right side and listened to the teacher. Removed four hairs from comb and blew them off my book. Replaced comb in hair and patted it, but was watching teacher and listening all the time. Felt that comb and hair-ribbon were not in correct positions. Adjusted ribbon carefully and took comb out. Did not use my mirror because teacher objects and I have already lost two that way. Noticed that the hair-ribbon of Isabel in front of me was in an awful state, tangled up and everything. Used my hair comb to fluff her hair out. Pulled her hair by mistake so she cried out and grab- bed the comb-mean thing! The teacher turned round and flashed one of her withering looks on poor me instead of Isabel. A Went on copying notes from blackboard. Got out of my seat when the teacher was writing to get my comb back. Teacher .gave me an order mark. Tried in vain to show her the injustice of her action. The bell rang and I received sympathy and condolence from the girls. All of them agreed that I hadn't talked once during the period, or laughed or shied paper at the basket, or done anything at all, except just been the victim of one or two slight' accidents that couldn't have been prevented by anyone. There's no real justice in this old school! ' ' - 41 Rgape1't's Land College Magazine , RUPERT'S LAND COLLEGE 4Re-inserted by requesty . , ' SHYLOCK I Shylock was an old Jew who lived in Venice. He had an only daughter, Jessica, whom he had grown to love after his wife, Rachel's, death. He was very rich and lent money with interest. But he was not so taken up with his money and house as not to see how a Christian merchant, Antonio, hated him. Antonio lent money, too, but without such heavy inter- est as Shylock. This took some of Shylock's customers from him, so he wanted his revenge, which he nearly secured. I pity Shylock when he lost the things perhaps dearest to him, Jessica and Rachel, and also when he loses his revenge, although I would not have liked him to have it. I also sympathize with him for wanting a revenge but I hate him for the revenge he chose. I hate him for treating his daughter the way he did. I do not admire his jealous character and the way he tried to make himself look as if he suffered a lot from the Christians, a few of whom suffered from him considerably. And I think if he had not been so miserly, he would not have lost one of his most valued treasures-Jessica.

THE TOWN OF NO-GOOD Kind friends, - Have you heard of the town of No-Good, On the banks of the river Slow, Where the Some-Time-or-Other scents the air, And the soft Go-Easies grow? It lies in the valley of What's-the-Use, In the Province of Let-Her-Slideg se Qt's the home of the reckless I-Don't-Care, Where the Give-It-Ups abide. The town is as old as the human race, And it grows with the flight of yearsg It is wrapped in the fog of the idler's dreamsg Its streets are paved with discarded schemes, And are sprinkled with useless tears. 44 H Ruperfs Land College Magazine GOOD NIGHT Good night. They say it fondly at the gate, Where parting a most painful process seems. In weariness the mother often says, Good night, dear one, and may you have sweet dreams. Good night. Good night, the duty mistress firmly says, Upon her rounds when lights out has been rung, I said 'good night,' and if you speak again- Oh saddest word that ever has been sung. Good night! Good night! That can't be the devotion bell! .My hair's not combed. Here quick, turn down the clothes! Oh my dear soul !, She's coming up the stairs! That means an order mark for me, I s'pose. Good night!! - THE PAPER-BOY 'Is there anything more pleasant than being met by a cheerful, whistling paper-boy on your way to work? There is one lad-J im is his name-who often gets on the same car as I do. He always makes for the very front seat and there he composes his calls, interesting, snappy ones, that draw everyone's attention. r The boy himself is enough to attract notice-of medium height, he has a freckled nose, which gets red as a beet on cold mornings and hair that stands straight on end like a wire- haired fox-terrier that is terribly frightened. He is always whistling fperhaps he is a Scout! as though he had no cares in the world and was always sure of his next meal. His clothes make that seem doubtful as the sleeves are miles too short and his entire suit is in rags. Certain men always' get their papers from him, it does themigood to see his merry smile and twinkling, mischievous eyes before starting their morning's work. I .

Fond adventures, with ginger beer. And did you find the ginger that night? I guess it was there, all right, all right. What makes the fire-escape sparkle like new? I dusted it well before I got through. Say, did you hear a woeful cry? It seemed to occur as I slid by. Where did you get that eye so blue? She knew it was hard before she threw. Where did you get that little tear? At the turn of the stair before she got there! 7 What was the fate of your nice suit of grey? Three-fifty at Henry's I had to pay. What makes your swimming stroke so grand? 'Tm better on lakes than I am on the land. What did you say as away you flew? I wou,ldn't repeat it if I were you. What took you home as you passed away?

THE HALLOWE'EN PARTY ' - Fairies and gnomes, pierrots and pierrettes, courtiers and ladies and many other gaily dressed figures could be seen run- ning, and heard laughing and talking in the corridors and halls of Rupert's Land, on the night of October 31st, 1920. After the exciting spook walk around the passages, the gay throng went into the prettily decorated Assembly Hall. A jazz orchestra, with all its players dressed in very funny cos'- tumes, accompanied the dancing. To Pass the Business On, and a few other games were played before the younger ones went to bed. Q Soon, votes for the prizes for the funniest, the most orig- 46 Rupert's Land College Magazine inal, the prettiest and the cleverest costumes were taken and Miss Jones gave the winners their presents. The band- then played a tune, to which everyone danced -Sir Roger de Coverley. Refreshments were served after a few more dances. Having had a most enjoyable time, everyone went home after joining hands and singing Auld Lang Sync. PEGGY Moss, Upper V. .--1-i. ARMISTICE DAY The anniversary of the ending of the Great War is called Armistice Day. The world war was brought to a close on the eleventh day of November in nineteen eighteen, when, on that morning, at ten minutes past seven, the Brigade Headquarters received the following message: Hostilities will cease at eleven o'clock, November eleven, nineteen eighteen. Troops will stand fast on the line reached at that time, which, to Divisional Headquarters immediately, defensive precautions will be maintained. There will be no intercourse with enemy of any description. In Mons there was a great celebration. That 'city and everyone was in gala attire, while the people pressed the soldiers with wine and gifts. Each soldier had a red carnation behind his ear. The populace went nearly mad with joy. Many Canadian troops were inthe city and the outskirts of Valenciennes, on the morning of the eleventh of November, at eleven o'clock. The public, including the troops, gathered at the Grand Place, as the French call large square. Great preparations were made for the announcement of the signing of the Armistice. Many military bands played, and several speeches were delivered by the most prominent men of both military and civilian speakers. The news was received with great joy, and everyone was thankful to our Lord for His many blessings. Last year on the eleventh of November at 11 o'clock the wheels of industry stopped all over the world, as men, women and children paid silent tribute to the glorious dead. In London an unknown British soldier was buried in Westminster Abbey. The people present were: English royalty, the Houses of Commons and Lords, and many representatives from the British Empire.

In this village lives an old Indian Chief, who calls himself Chief Isaac. He is about seventy years old and looks about the same as he did twenty years ago. He has little beady black eyes and a very wrinkled face, a little moustache and high cheek bones. He is quite a character. The Mounted Police wanted an Indian policeman, so they made Chief Isaac one. He used to wear a dirty old blue coat, old cap, dirty brown overalls and on the shoulder of his blue coat he wore a police badge ' If anyone was drunk he would get a policeman down from Dawson to arrest him and he used to go around the village every Saturday and make the people scrub their houses out for Sunday. Q . One day he made an arrest and the Indian arrested got six months for being drunk. He threatened to kill the old Chief when he got out. It happened that the Indian got out of the jail and ran away. The old Chief was sure he would kill him and he wouldn't go back to Moosehide that night. In about a month they caught the Indian again and old Chief Isaac was discharged because he was no good. Every year they used to have dances at Christmas time at Moosehide in Chief Isaac's house, and he used to ask the people to bring their own cups, plates and spoons. . HELEN KNIGHT, ' Upper IV. THE ORGAN GRINDER One morning while I was helping Grandma I heard some music outside and hurried out to see what it was. On the sidewalk was an organ grinder and his monkey. The man was quite tall and about fifty years old. He had black hair and dark skin and was very poor. His organ played some very nice tunes and the monkey danced gaily to them. The monkey was about as big as a cat and had a long tail. He wore a little red cap and a brown and red suit with brass buttons, just like a bell-hop in a hotel. When the organ had played enough, the monkey would walk up to the houses and ring the bell and ask for the lady of the house. Sometimes she didn't come and he would get mad and stalk away to his master. I always used to give him 49 Rupert's Land College Magazine about ten cents, so he came every day and got to know me and was quite tame. , I was very sorry when I had to go home, and next time I went down the man and his monkey were not there. MARCIA ROBERTSON, Upper IV. ALMOST A SHIPWRECK On my way to Victoria from California, with mother and my three sisters, we were all very seasick. It took us five days to get there. On the fourth day we were just off the coast of Oregon, which is very rocky, and we were all in bed seasick except mother. At about half-past ten in the morning the boat suddenly stopped, for no apparent reason. We thought nothing of this until mother came into the cabin and told us to get dressed at once. We, of course, asked her why, and she said that the engine had stopped and they could not get it started, and the current was driving the boat nearer and nearer to the dan- gerous coast line, and she thought we might have to take to the boats. The wireless man was sending off messages to the main- land for help, while the men tried hard to start the engine. Just as they got it started, a little tug came up to tug the boat'to land. It looked very important and was very disap- pointed when it was told it wouldn't be needed. Just the same, all the passengers cheered it as it went slowly away. Instead of arriving at Victoria at noon the next day, as we expected, we came in at midnight and so missed the pretty view. MARGARET NORTHWOOD, Upper IV. THE OLD BLIND WOMAN AND HER DAUGHTER When I was in Edinburgh there was an old blind woman and her daughter who used to come around to the houses begging. H The old woman looked about seventy and her hair was scraggly and grey and her face was full of wrinkles. Her coat was just a,rag. Her toes were coming through the end of her shoes and the brim of her hat was nearly off. e Her daughter was about sixteen and would have been pretty, only her face was thin and she looked as if she had 50 Ruperfs Land College Magazine never smiled. Her hair was dark and curly and she had big, dark brown eyes. She always went bare-footed and only wore a coat on wet days, but never a hat. The blind mother, this sixteen year old daughter and three or four little ones lived in a single room. There was an elder brother and sister, but they had married and left this poor little family helpless. BETTY MARTIN, Upper IV. A HURRICANE When we were in Kenora one summer there was a terrible storm. About nine o'clock one Sunday morning Ruth and I had gone into mother's room, when we heard a rushing wind and then two great bangs, then a thump. We went quickly to see what damage had been done, and found, in a little room of baby's, that all the plaster from the ceiling had fallen and the rain was coming through into the linen cupboard. o. Then we went down to the kitchen and saw that it was full of soot, so we knew the chimney had fallen. We put out the iire in the stove. Later we noticed that another chimney was down and had smashed the verandah at the side of the house and the porch underneath. The grass was covered with bricks. The house next door had seven very large trees torn up, and the library across the lake had its roof blown off and the verandah broken down. This was the first time the people of Kenora had seen a storm like this and they hope it will be the last. JEAN MACHRAY, Upper IV. .

War broke out and the Emperor called his soldiers to iight for him. The people hated him, and his courtiers would say in a whisper to each other, Claudius the Cruel. The people said to Valentine, If we hate the Emperor, why should we let our sons and our husbands and brothers fight for him ? So the men were unwilling to leave their wives. The Emperor published a decree which said that no one should marry. Valentine could hardly believe his ears when he heard about it or his eyes when he saw the decree, but he told the people that he would marry any couple who wished to be married. This reached the ears of the court and the Em- peror. He became very furious and told his courtiers to go and find this priest and put him into prison. While in prison' Valentine is said to have worked many miracles. He died in prison, and the Romans often married on Saint Valentine's day as a remembrance of the' gentle Saint. FLORENCE BARISH, Lower IV. A TRIP TO THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS ' We left Winnipeg one cold February morning at ten o'clock and pulled through the snow-drifts down into the United States. A ' 4 The next morning about nine o'clock we arrived at St. Paul, got off the train and spent the whole day looking around the city. At Iive we got on another train and about the second morning when we woke up there was no snow on the ground at all. We knew then that we were in the northern part of the 53 R'apert's Land College Magazine State of California, and we soon arrived at San Francisco, where the next morning we took the steamer to beautiful Honolulu. Passing through the Golden Gate the wind was blowing very hard and it was quite cold. The weather was quite .cold for about three days and most of the passengers were seasick, but on the third morning the tables in the diningroom were all full, and the days were filled up with playing shuffleboard and other games arranged by the steward. We played games every day until we landed in Honolulu. The fifth night when we went to bed we packzed up all our suitcases ready to land the next morning at eight -o'clock. Next morning we got up at half-past five and saw Diamond Head. Then we came into the harbor of Honolulu. All the passengers were on deck and the Hawaiian boys were swimming in the ocean. The passengers threw dimes into the water and the boys dived down and brought them up in their mouths. We were tired after our trip, so we went to the Young Hotel. In the afternoon we went to Waikiki Beach and had a swim. The water was nice and warm and there are no big waves. The Hawaiian men were coming in on the surfboards. Next morning we went up to the Palie, which is a cut over the mountains, where the wind blows so hard that there is an iron rail to hold on to, to keep yourself from blowing off. Sometimes automobiles are overturned. After two days' stay in Honolulu we took the steamer to Hawaii. Next morning we got up at five o'clock and went on deck as we entered the beautiful Bay of Hilo, to see the sun shining on the snow-capped Maura Kea, which is about 14,000 feet high. We then went by automobile to the volcano of Kilauea. About half way up we branched off and went to Puna, where we saw a Hawaiian grass house, and'we went through several Hawaiian villages. Then we went on to warm springs, where we had a swim and lunch. We stopped to see the old Hawaiian Cave of Refuge, then driving up through the tree ferns we reached the volcano in about two hours. The volcano is a lake of fire and is about three miles around. It is always changing, sometimes quiet, then from one to twenty fountains of fire will be playing in the air fifty feet high. This goes on year in and year out. We had our dinner at the volcano hotel and in the evening drove down to the Hilo Hotel, where we waited for our steamer to take us to Honolulu. ELIZABETH F. LAUGHTON, Upper III. 54 ' Rupe1't's Land College Magazine A LETTER FROM NICE, FRANCE Dear-4 Mother said you wished me to write to you about our travels. There are so many interesting things happening all the time that I have difficulty in choosing what to write about, but up 'till now the most exciting thing was a motor drive we took on a mountain called the Grand Cornishe. I am sure I should have begged to have been left at home had I known what I should have to go through. The mountains were lovely, but I like them best from level ground. We kept going round and round, getting higher all the time 'till at last we were almost on the top, but oh, dear, I could not look down, it was too awful, and I was just terrified. I thought I had really said Good-bye to you all and that I was going into the sky. I had to hold myself tight to keep from screaming, yet I didn't like being a coward, but I never want to go on a mountain againas long as I live, and I am sorry to tell you I was sick all the next day. H We sometimes have a Victoria and go for a drive. When the mountains are lower I like it very much. We had a lot of lovely motor drives when we were in Paris. Daddy got a motor and he and mother, Nana, Judy and I went to Versailles and through the palace, where we saw all the rooms just as when the Louis XIII., XIV., and XV. lived there. We also saw Napoleon's room and Marie Antoinette's room, and a lot of paintings and statues. We saw the chariots they used, and the harness their horses wore, and then we went into the park and watched the children playing round the ponds. I have never seen such lovely trees as were in that park, and flowers everywhere. We had our luncheon at a hotel just outside the palace gates. Later we motored back to our hotel in Paris, had our tea and went to bed. Another day we motored to Cannes from Nice. I liked that because we were on the level and broad road, and on another day we went to Mentone and Monaco, and saw the palace of the Prince of Monacog and we had a good view of the- whole kingdom of the Prince. Then we went right on to Monte Carlo, and from there, on our way back, we could see the Italian frontier and many other places of interest. On ordinary days we go to the beach in the morning and walk or drive in the afternoon. When we walk Judy and I take our hoops and have great fun. , Yours affectionately, FRANCES H. Moss, Upper III. 00 Rupe1't's Land College Magazine ' STORIES TOLD TO ME BY MY GRANDMOTHER One day Weeskajak was walking along the river when he saw some ducks swimming. He was hungry, so he wanted some to eat. He thought of a plan to capture some ducks. He emptied his little sack, filled it up with dry leaves and walked along the river. The ducks saw him and called out, Oh, Weeskajak, what have you in your knapsack ? They follow- ed him a long way up the river, and at last he said, Oh, little mothers,'these are just my songs. Then they called out, Oh, Weeskajak, won't you give us a dance ? And Weeskajak an- swered, Oh, no, I'm too tired. I've been working hard all day. But they kept following and calling out, Oh, Wees- kajak, won't you please give us a dance, oh, Weeskajak, won't you give us a dance ? At last he said, You will have to do everything I tell you to do. You must build a wigwam first, then you must all shut your eyes when you dance. Then they built the wigwam and they all went inside and shut the door. Many birds from all round came when they heard there was going to be a dance. As they dancedwith their eyes shut Weeskajak went round wringing their necks, but one little duck heard a noise, so he opened a corner of his eye to see what Weeskajak was doing, and called out, Oh! Weeskajak is wringing our necks, and they all opened their eyes to see. The little duck ran for the door, and just as he was going out Weeskajak kicked him and sent him flying into the water. So from that time the little duck is called a Diver, because he went so far under the water, and he has hardly any tail. ' II. ' One day Weeskaj ak was walking through the woods, when he saw some little partridges throwing their eyes up in the air, throwing back their heads and catching their eyes again. He watched they for a while, and wished so much to do that, so he said, Oh, my little brothers, won't you teach me how to do that ? The partridges said, Oh, Weeskajak, you can't do it, it is only we can do that. Oh, my little brothers, I am all alone by myself, and I have nothing to amuse myself with. Show me how to do it. But the partridges said, Oh, Weeskajak, if we show you you will do it so often that you will lose your eyes. But Weeskajak said, Oh no, little brothers, I will only do it -once in a while. At last they said, We will show you how to do it, but you must be very careful. Then they taught him how to do it, and he played with the partridges for a while, then he went on his way, and they warned him, Oh, Weeskajak, do not throw your eyes up too often, or you will lose your eyes. So, as he was walking through the woods, throwing up his eyes, he said, Oh, look at my little eyes, and he did it so ' 56 Rupertls Land College Magazine often that one fell on the left and one on the right. He tried to find his eyes, and as he was crawling about trying to find them, suddenly a stick ran into his eyeball and he screamed, Oh, my eye! Oh, my eye! Presently another stick ran into his other eyeball and he screamed worse than ever. In a little While another stick ran into his eyeball and he knew that someone was poking sticks in his eyeball, so he determined to catch him. The next time a stick ran into his eyeball he jumped for the stick and caught a little fox by the tail. I've caught you at last, he cried. Oh, please, Weeskajak, let me go. I was only playing with you. If you Will only let me go I will lead you about until I find some eyes for you, said the fox. So the little fox led him about itill he found a pine tree. Then he took a small piece of pitch, rolled it up and put it in Weeskajak's eye. He led him round 'till he found some more pitch and he rolled another eye. Then Weeskajak could see Well and he let the fox go free, and said, I give you the gift of a lovely fur coat, so that everyone will love you. IRENE SANDERSON, Lower III. 1?

One day this little bear went out to play, but first his mother made him promise not to go out of the garden. Soon he forgot his promise and strayed out of the garden gate. He saw a funny looking thing in a tree, which he touch- ed with his paw. He licked his paw and it tasted sweet. He liked the taste so much that he put his paw in again, but he was stung by a bee. A whole swarm of bees came out, so he ran away quickly, but he did not look where he was going so he fell into a brook. He came out all dripping wet, and he had lost his way. Soon he heard the familiar voice of his mother, who took him home, scolded him, and put him to bed with a cold. We must now say good-bye to our little bear. BARBARA PATERSON, Lower III.

MY TRIP TO SCOTLAND A While holidaying in Scotland last summer, Daddy took us up in the Highlands, and I must say I never saw anything like it before. The mountains were so high the clouds -were right down over them, and the springs of water coming out of the mountains trickled down so fast to a waterfall at the bottom. I loved to watch the sheep climbing up the mountain, and some times they went to the highest place and would be eating all the time. We had very hot weather while there, but the rain made the roads not so good, and they were so narrow that it was not easy to pass another car, and it seemed as if we were always meeting them. We went to Loch Aire, where a beautiful hotel was built right on the lake front, and stayed from Saturday until Wednesday morning, mptoring in a different direction each day. Father, mother and I went to church at Loch Aire, a lovely solid stone church, quite diderent from our churches, and one funny thing was a pole with a bag on the end for tak- ing up the collection. y 58 Ruperfs Land College Magazine We went as far as Oban, and it is a lovely place. I did so want to stay longer. We then went to Inverary and many other beautiful places, and motored back to Edinburgh. I en- joyed it all so much, in spite of the fact that I was the only little girl in the party. i NANCY MILTON, Lower III. WHY I COME TO SCHOOL .

At the end of the continuous ringing of a noiseless bell, Sarah, yawning loudly and quickly, sprang slowly out of bed. She hastily made her carefultoilet. Soon the soft pealing chimes of the devotion bell rang out, and she heard the silent steps of the motionless Mistress bounding down the hall. After eating a hearty breakfast of porridge and marmalade, Sarah went up to untidy her neat bed and make the room. The bell rang as she finished button- ing up her moccasins, and making one leap down the winding stairs, she took her place smartly in the crooked line. The walk dragged speedily round the Bicycle Path, and on her return she struggled cleverly through her muddled lessons and was glad to hear the sorrowful sound of the dinner bell four long brief hours later. The delicious dinner consisted of sweet milk, fish and bony rice pudding. All through the noon hour Sarah practised Yankee Doodle on the mellow notes of a soundless piano, and in the afternoon she got full marks for not paying attention. At 3.30 she donned her charming gymnasium raiment and went into the small hall, which was so big she was almost lost.

FROM THE DEAD LETTER OFFICE CThe following may be claimed by the owners.-Editor! My Dear Mary,- How are you getting along? Same as ever I suppose. We went to hear Gordon McTavish sing last Friday and he is the cutest thing, though I don't know what he was singing about. His aunt is in the School. Say Mary, Birdy is perfectly ador- able this term and I love her more than ever. Gladys and me make her bed every morning and I do think after the last pecan roll I gave her that she likes me better than Gladys, though she doesn't think so. Last Saturday I invited Glad out and we had a scrumptious feed, French pastry and chocolate walnut sundaesg and who do you think was there with Edith and Flossie? You'll never guess would you? Well it was some spread, and since then I'm dead broke, as I had to give my last ten cents to the China Famine Fund. ' Well, I'll see you soon. With love from your loving friend. I - GIRLIE. Dear Ruby,- ' I hope you are very well. I am feeling so lonesome you can't think. It is ten weeks to Easter and how I'll survive in this old prison I can't tell. I guess they will have to have a funeral instead of a party when I get home. Just think, they don't take you out to a show any night in the week and none of the College boys may come round and call, and if you just leave your piano room for a moment in practice time, there's always someone waiting to pounce on you with an order mark. Oh! and I can't wear my swell blue plush dress when We go to see Martin Harvey, because she says young girls should wear white. What do you know about that? And weihave to take gym and play games and I don't think bloomers suit me at all and my puffs keep coming down. -4 . Say, Ruby, what do you think? They took all our talcum 62 , Rupe1't's Land College Magazine away, all except a little mite I slipped into my vanity case, and they took Sadie's lip stick and her depilitry CI don't think that's spelled rightj. Isn't it a shame? Say, you should of seen Tom Trackem up at St. John's when our girls went to play their Juniors. Was I glad to see him? Oh no, not at all. But just as I got talking to him and two or three of the other boys, he saw one of the teachers looking at us and he said he guessed he'd got to go. Isn't it disgusting? Oh Ruby, do write to me often or I'll simply expire. Bushels and bushels of love to yourself and Maizie. Yours eternally, IRMA. Dear Violet,- e When are you going to answer my last? It's ages since you wrote. I'm simply dying to hear from you again. Well, Violet, this time I really have something to tell you. It's frightfully exciting and you'd never guess. Now prepare yourself and don't throw a fit when you hear it-I'm in love! and oh, my dear, this time it's the real thing, I do think. It's simply wonderful,.Violet, you have no idea. He has the cutest little moustache and a kind of a straight nose. As for his eyes, Violet, I dare not meet them but I'm sure they're brown.and simply adorable. He sits in the third pew on the right at church and right in the middle of the children's sermon last Sunday I caught his eye! My dear! I was simply thrilled. Mary Harris says his uncle's housekeeper is a cousin of their cooks, so I may meet him yet. But oh, Violet, the glorious feeling! I hope you will find your fate soon, too, dear. I think I will begin some pink camisoles. I can't see why the mistresses should have it all their own way. Oh, it's just a wonderful feeling. I don't know how I managed to exist all these years without it and I can hardly wait for next Sunday. I never really enjoyed church before, at least not the Church of England. They are going to make a silly rule that all letters but home ones must be left open, because some girls do not write sensible letters. Cats! I'd like to know what they think they'll find. He must be at least 23, and so frightfully hand- some. Now do write and congratulate me, my dear, I'm simply dying to know what you think of it. I think I'll tell her that I licked this by mistake if she asks. , Your devoted . PANSY. P.S.-Of course he doesn't shave his neck or wear a bow tie. 63 Ruperfs Land College Magazine o pi 'Qs 'r 1 x HOCKEY A Early in the new year hockey was organized as a definite School game. To everyonessatisfaction the rink was flooded and skating got under way. A coach was secured and enthus- iasm was shown in the number of girlsthat turned out to practice. Mondays and Thursdays were chosen as practice days. . After the first two practices definite teams were decided upon and those old rivals, Day Girls and Boarders, faced each other in mortal combat. The first game resulted in rather an easy win for the Boarders, whose superior weight Cowing, no doubt, to Lizzie's cookingl overbore their lighter opponents. The next game, however, gave the Day Girls revenge, as they won by two goals. r -r This internecine war was abandoned in favour of co- operation against St. J ohn's. Mr. Headlam, of the latter insti- tution, arranged a game for us, and on Saturday, February 19th, our team journeyed to St. J ohn's. After practice on the preceding Thursday, a team was selected and a captain chosen. Charlotte Counsell was appointed captain, and the following team picked as Rupert's Land College Senior Hockey Team, season 1920-21: , Goal, Margaret Clarkeg defence, Mary Norquay, Dorothy Clay, centre, Muriel Smith, left wing, Charlotte Counsellg right wing, Edna Hartwellg ,subs, Margaret Black, Helen Grundy, Frances Burritt. After three fifteen-minute periods, we emerged victors by 6-5. The steady work of the whole defence was perhaps the feature of the game. Muriel Smith, in centre, worked hard, but the work of the forwards was marred by a tendency to wander away from their positions and a lack of combination. However, as the first game of the season, it was a most creditable performance. The following Saturday again saw the team at St. John's. This time we were deprived of the services of Margaret Clarke and Helen Grundy. Evelyn McNeil played goal and we had ' 64 Ruperfs Land College Magazine only two substitutes 3 otherwise the team was the same. Un- fortunately the whole team went on the ice very nervous, and our small but fast opponents ran in five goals in the first period. No one played her usual game. The second period saw the defence settling down, and the forwards attacking hard. We managed to score four goals, holding St. John's scoreless. The third period showed marked improvement. The defence was splendid, especially the goal-keeper, who was remarkably cool. The forward line worked hard, and were un- lucky in scoring once only. St. John's also scored in this period, so the final result was St. John's 6, Rupert's Land RUPERT'S LAND COLLEGE HOCKEY TEAM Upper Row Cleft to right?-Mary Norquay, Frances Burritt, Edgar Matheson icoachl, Dorothy Clay, Muriel Smith, Charlotte Counsell. Lower Row-Edna Hartwell, Evelyn McNeill, Margaret Black. College 5. In spite of the defeat the hockey was much better than in the first game. The third game resulted in another St. John's Victory, 6-4. Lack of practice, owing to the complete ruin of the rink, handi- capped the team. As before, the team was fidgety in the first period, not finding its true form until the final fifteen minutes. Edna Hartwell excelled herself in this game, her checking and determined rushes being very good. The whole team played well in the last period. 65 Ruperfs Land College Magazine V A short resume of the various players is not out of order. EVELYN MCNEIL-Shows great promise. Is cool and sure. Will be a good goal-keeper next year. MARY N ORQUAY-Fast skater and good check. Uses her head well. Must learn to pass the puck. Never tires and is very plucky. ' DOROTHY CLAY-Has improved every game and is a line defence player. Strong skater, dangerous rusher, checks and blocks well. Bad tendency to get to the opponents' end, lose the puck and skate back. Pass it, Dorothy! ' MURIEL SMITH-Excellent all-round player. Skates well. Shoots and stickhandles nicely. ,Should develop into a first- class forward. , 7 Y 1 JUNIOR SKATERS, 1920-21 EDNA HARTWELL-Our right wing works hard, checks closely and never loafs. Must conquer tendency to wander and do everyone else's job. Stick to your wing, Edna. U CHARLOTTE COUNSELL---A good captain. She plays all the time she's on the ice. Gets the best out of her team, uses her subs well, never spares herself. Charlotte must learn to work in closer before shooting. PETER BLACK-Painstaking defence player, who works well with either Mary or Dorothy. Always willing and plays hard. Another year will see Peter on the regular defence or crowding the others hard for their places. ' HELEN GRUNDY--A fast skater and leady playler. Alas! I'm in the Army now. 66 Raperfs Land College Magazine 'FRANCIS BURRITT--Hard-working and willing. Skates well and sticks to her job. I MARGARET CLARK-Promising goal-keeper. Regret she is also conscripted. A WINNIE MCKAY-AS a goal-umpire you are a line cheer leader! The other girls who turned out to practice showed en- thusiasm. To them we will look for our next year's material: Frances Chaiey, Peggy Moss, Edith Mawdsley, Irene San- derson, Isabelle Lewis, Winnie McKay, Nan Billings, Bella Wickwire. p BASKETBALL During the Easter term very little basketball was played, because the girls devoted their spare time to hockey. But this Summer term everyone is very anxious to play. At the begin- ning of the year the usual elections for captains took place. The Day Girls' captain is Frances Burritt and the Boarders', Edna Hartwell. ' Several practice games have been arranged and we hope to challenge some outside teams. , There is a cup to be played for, which last year was won by the Boarders and this year the Day Girls are very anxious to take it away from them. There are so many of the latter playing that they have had ,to be divided into junior and senior teams.
