94 THE CO LL EGIATE and strange thoughts will be crys- tallized about these frivolous toilet accessories. The philosphers would be wrong, however, in declaring that the sun of our century has not brought us anything new. It has really ac- complished a genuine revolution in this sphere. Mr. Marcel Boulanger has just invited us to admit that modern civilization has introduced an element of unquestionable novel- ty into the history of cosmetics in the course of centuries. lVe are witnesses this moment of the suc- cessive abandonment of the ances- tral traditions of feminine allure- ment. Our fair friends repudiate today the aesthetic intangible ideal of the woman-flower of all the centuries, the lily and rose com- plexion. lt is a fact: the lily and rose com- plexion is no longer worn. Sport and sea-side heliotherapy have kill- ed it. Thus they have determined the style and present new sociologic tendencies. The delicate shades of a pearly cuticle have given way to for more vigorous colors harmonies of a more de- the search and to the cided tone. The face, the arms, the shoulders have thus movement of our lady companions followed the irresistible which inspired our paint- ers, our artist decorators, and our furniture manufacturers to seek for tonal effects more decided and more bold than those of their ancestors. Formerly in the midst of apartments in which neutral tints dominated, a lady's toilet served only to frame a face, in which the finest qualities of white and rose were cultivated with care. At this time, some peo- ple were contented with the modest contrasts which the young Grecian of Olbia has already created with her red paste and black pencil. lVe are no longer in that age. Rice powder can no longer preserve its ingenuousness. The light mist, in which a pretty face was wrapped, has taken the copper tints of a storm cloud. It is no longer a ques- tion of the distinguished pallor, sought for by the contemporaries of the Lady with the Camelias. The young girls in bud, blossom out in tonalities which recall those of the Mohicans on the war-path. The Redskins of Mayne-Reid on meeting a Parisian girl of today would not be able to call her Paleface and would take her for a woman of their own tribe. A lady of fashion now disposes of an arsenal of rouges and powders that run the gamut with the bistres and ochres, which per- mit her to resemble the squaw of the Sioux warriors. The progress of hygiene and the development of physical culture tend to cause the lily-like young society girl to disappear, fading a- way in the back of the gyneceum under the anxious watch of her mo- ther. Our young sports intoxicat- ed with the sun, fresh air and ac- tivity, take pride in hoisting a strongly fortified epidermis, tanned legs, choclate-coloured arms and Havanna-coloured face and shoul- ders done to a turn. A sign of the times: there exist specialists entrusted with artificial- ly tanning and bronzing refactry bare necks by the action of the sun or sea-salt, in order to allow our worldlings afflicted with lily and rose complexion to show next Oc- tober in the lobbies of the Opera, a cutaneous disguise of which they need not be ashamed. This is an evil epoch for the grandsons of Ronsard who can no longer invite Mignone to come and see if the rose can call a rival colorour into her cheek. The poet who wishes to Hatter his beloved and to prove to her that her beauty surpasses nature, will soon have to conduct her gallantly into the pre- sence of a tomato or an apricot. THE COLLEGIATE 95 Z.- fn ' Most of our old friends are found in our exchange column this year, as well as a few new ones.

'BUDH THE COLLEGIATE 97 i :if-egg 9 L A , +1 J A Eli Six If 'Q ,ffl ' A X W . xx llk lf i 101 P l S h Q i f M The Executive of the Girl's Athletic Association which was elected soon after the beginning of school found it necessary to have live curators in each form instead of one as formerly. This is a most assuring proof of the manner in which girls' sports have progressed. Those with athletic ability are now confining their efforts to Basketball. Hockey and Swimming, leaving Field Day in the past and anticipating Baseball in the future. BASKETBALL Near the close of last season the IQ24 XY. O. S. S. A. Basketball team had obtained the right to meet Lon- don South in the Semi-finals. Home and home games resulted in a 58-54 victory for our school. The close score speaks for itself concerning excitement, interest, and enthus- iasm. ln these exhibitions the indi- vidual performance of Hazel Aitkins reminded the spectators of Florence Buckindail of the old Collegiate and Dorothy Black of St. Thomas. The Sarnia Team however was doomed to meet its XYaterloo in the finals against llalkerville. Lilian Bull with her sure shooting forward line, her close checking defense and her short speedy passes outclassed the S.C.I. who went down lighting un- der an 83-28 score. Despite the fact that there was considerable delay before basket- ball got under way, the girls have been making up for lost time in their three weekly practices. On the first night Mr. Keeber, who is giving much of his time to coach- ing, and Miss Pugh who is so kind- ly assisting him. picked the teams with such careful judgment that it has remained practically intact. Although there is an absence of many of last year's veterans each and every member of the team de- clares herself ready to help in re- versing the finals of X924 when all other opponents are vanquished. Inter-Form Games Basketball games held between the forms with the view of deciding on the championship teams are the greatest factor in aiding the growth of this sport. On account of the necessity for concentrating on NYO. S.S.A. basketball it has been impos- sible to complete the schedule to date. Under Miss Pugh, manage- ment many of the games have been played and the semi-hnals have been reached. The Team As usual a team is entered in the 98 THE COLLEGIATE. GIRLS' BASKETBALL TEAM Sitting Cleft to rightj-Jean XVheatcroft, Miss Pugh, Ruth Kirkpatrick, Mr. Keeber, Florence Laugher. Standing rleft to rightj-Vida Simpson, Muriel Teskey, Bernice Simpson, Helen Donald, Margaret Hall, Marion Henderson, Florence Smith. 'W.O.S.S.A. Basketball Series to re- present the S. C. I. and T. S.. the personnel of which includes: Mgr. Margaret Hall, Capt. Ruth Kirkpat- rick, Helen Donald, -lean XVheat- croft, 'Vida Simpson, Bernice Simp- son, Florence Smith, Florence Laug- her, Marian Henderson and Muriel Teskey. After Ending that iilalkerville had secured such finished results from practising with boys, it was deter- mined to follow this plan. The team would like to take this opportunity of extending its heartiest thanks to those boys who have sacrificed their time playing girls' rules-a term held high in their contempt. Old Girls-S.C.l. The annual clash between the alumni and the school was more in- teresting than usual. Although in- stilled with fear and trembling at the mention of the three Western, the two Ypsalanti Stars and Lorene Wlarwick, the uninitiated school team was successful in winning this first encounter by a 20-I8 score. It was a fast, hard struggle and when Son Jennings blew the final Whis- tle it was doubtful who the winners really were. Watford-Sarnia The antics of the Sarnia team's first appearance on the slippery dance floor of the 'Watford arinories caused a great deal of laughter. In spite of these adverse conditions the S.C.l. was able to attain a lead of 30 points. On the home floor the whole team worked like clock-Work and could 11ot be stopped. As a result the S.C.l. came out on the big end of a 66-7 score. THE COLLEGIATE 99 Strathroy-Sarnia In the second district game held in Strathroy the Sarnia Wossa girls defeated the Strathroy basketball squad by a score of 47-20. Helen Donald was the individual- star, net- ting 2:7 of her team's points. Dur- the return game the Sarnialassies were too good for Strathroy in every department of- the 'game Sarnia's 'strong forward trio 'com- bined with its energetic' defense scored 61 points to the I3 scored against them. jean XVheatcroft came through with I6 points, her best night's achievement. Port Huron-Sarnia The blue and white lassies met their first real opposition in these exhibition games. At half time the score was 8-6 in Port Huron's favor but when the game was finished the Sarnia team which. had fiashed some brilliant passing, combination and shooting while playing their own rules, came through with a 27-I3 victory. In the return game in the Junior High the Port Huron team had been considerably weakened by the changes made in their line up. Thus the nicely balanced Sarnia out- fit swamped the Port Huron aces 61-I5 in a very one-sided contest. London South-Sarnia Sarnia encountered the toughest opposition of the season in the semi- finals of the Wossa against the Lon- don South. It was a close contest throughout with the final score 31- 24 Sarnia's favour. Ruth Kirkpat- rick, captain, played the best in- dividual game on the floor scoring IQ of her team's points. In the re- turn game in London the Sarnia girls were able to hold their lead of 7 points and increase it to I7 during the first half. After half-time Lon- don inspired by the unusual dis- play of- enthusiasin on the part of the rooters wasgable to tie the score. This called fo1Q.a'play-off which was arranged aft'Ci'liatham the following iieek. ' Here the Sarnia' girls had the same experience as in London. For the first three periods they held a considerablbe lead only to be out- played on the whole by a score 25-23. Helen Donald's banishment for fouls soon after the whistle for half-time left a decided gap on the team play of the Sarnia girls. Walkerville-Sarnia ln the first game the Wfalkerville girls had little difficulty in defeat- ing the Sarnia girls by a large mar- gin. But in the return game the Sarnia girls, smarting under their defeat and anxious to redeem them- selves, played one of the best games of the year. The XValkerville for- wards found almost as much dilii- culty scoring against the Smith, Simpson, Laugher defense as the Sarnia forwards against the Bull, Churchill, Churchill guards. The 20-9 score in favour of XYalkerville was no discredit to our girls. No small part of the pleasure of playing basketball is the reception that the team have received at each place where they have been billeted -our thanks go to all those who have made it so. SWIIVFMING The enthusiasm of this recently in- troduced sport has been as keen, if not keener than in other games. As in other years the girls are allowed the use of -the pool on Tuesdays and Thursday from 4 until 5 o'clock. The two aquatic meets held during the term have stimulated interest in swimming and have showed what the S.C.l. and T.S. could produce along the line of girl swimmers, especially in the individual perform- ance of Jean XYheatcroft's speed and diving. Live-Saving During the month of May there were seven girls in the school who successfully passed the examination 100 THE COLLEGIATE GIRLS' LIFE SAVING TEAM Sitting tleft to rightJfPearl Kirhy, Hilda Bishop, Mary Mclntyre, Miss Scarrow, Betty Gurd, Gertrude llhrwick.

In the statement of 1924 the Sarnia Collegiate ranked 16th in the Do- minion and Ist among the Colleg- iates of Canada. In an attempt to gain ever greater prestige the num- ber of girls who have been devoting much of their time in learning the art of life-saving has greatly in- creased. Although the examination has not yet been tried it is expected that the girls will have little trouble in obtaining it. Those interested in swimming wish to thank Miss Scar- row for the interest she has taken, and the time she has spent, in teach- ing the instructors who in their turn have taught the beginners. HOCKEY ll'hile the school rink on the cam- pus lasted the girls became so in- terested and enthusiastic about hoc- key. that they held practices not only on 'lluedays and Thursday but often on Saturdays. Ollie McGrath was elected captain and Edna Cob- ban manager. Under Miss Going's appreciated coaching a team was practically chosen. Ga-mes with NVatford and other hockey towns were planned when the Spring wea- ther intervened and ended any fur- ther development along this line. THE COLLEGIATE lOl FIELD DAY CHAMPIONS Sitting fleft to rightl-Alex Hayes. Jean XYheatcroft. Hubert Potter, Standing tleft to rightj-Jennie XYise, Glenn McPhail. jean Needham. FIELD DAY The Field Day of 19.24 was by far the most successful one held yet as weather conditions were excellent and a much longer list of compet- itors was entered than usual. The school campus was thickly dotted with spectators running hither and thither to find a most advantageous spot for sight-seeing. Many who considered themselves fortunate in obtaining a place on the temporary erected bleachers had their plans shattered when the wooden struc- tures came down with a crash to the general merriment of all. lYith such a large number of en- tries the various events were soon under way and by noon the greater part had been iinishedg these con- sisted mainly of ball-throwing, tar- get work, and jumping. The latter attracted keen interest with Howard Carter featuring as winner of the high jump reaching almost the 6 ft. mark. The afternoon programme began at two o'clock with a soft ball game between the Senior and -lunior girls, with the former carrying off the honours. For the dashes and the running events a splendid track had been marked ont. .-Xt the conclusion of the events came the announcement uf the girl champions. ,lean lllieatcroft nf 3.-X Coll. headed the list uf the senior girls, with the large number of 21 points followed closely by llelen Donald of .QA Coll. who gained Io points, and thirdly by Yida Simp- son of JC Coll. with IO points, Special Commercial was well re- presented in the Intermediate divis- ion when .lean Needham claimed 102 THE CO LLEGIATE the championship with 20 points, Florence Laugher with I4 points and E. XYaghorne of 2C Coll. with 6 points. were fortunate in securing second and third places. In the junior sub-division Jenny IVise, Doris Kemp, and Hazel Fulkerson all of 3A Commercial gained I7 points, I3 points and I2 points re- spectively. Both the Senior and Intermediate Boys' Championships were dead- locked. The judges decided that the Senior Championship should be a- warded to Ted Kennedy of 5th be- cause his 25 points were all secured from ISIS. Although Howard Car- ter of 3A Coll. also obtained 25 points he was placed 2nd and E. Kellam also of 3A Coll. with 1.1, points received 3rd place. In the Intermediate Division it was neces- sary to play off the tie by throwing the ball for distance. In this Way Hubert Potter of 3.4. Coll. with I8 points was pronounced champion and Jim Armstrong of 4A Coll. se- cond with I8 points and G. Finch of 3B Coll. third with IO points. In, the Junior events Alex Hayes of IC Coll. secured 23 points, Gordon Pat- terson of 2D Coll. 20 points and E. Hargrove of 4B Coll. 7 points. The midgets made a creditableshowingg Glenn McPhail of 2A Coll. coming IST with I6 points. Donn Barr of IA Coll. 2nd with I5 points, and Joe Allaire of IA Coll. 3rd with 6 points! The form championship was a- warded to six Collegiate which had a total of Q9 points, the girls win- ning 4I and the boys 58 points. This form was well represented and deserved much credit for the sports! Inanship it displayed. H Those in charge felt that the sup! port of the school was behind them in endeavouring to make the day a SLICCCSS. f xx 111 f- 'X 234,170 ,Alf I 0 ff xxxg k XZ' y ..14s---- 3x v, A:-' ' ffhf-f- ..,. .- Xix' 'l..'

Dear Collegiate:- It is not without a keen sense of the fact that I am no longer one among you but only one of the Alumni one of the has-beens, that I begin to write this letter. Neither am I insensible to the honour which is mine but, rather, deeply appre- ciative, for, anything that I may be asked to do for Sarnia Collegiate is a source of real joy to me. It makes one feel that, though he is absent in body, yet to some small extent his spirit lives on in the minds of the friends he made in the classroom and the Assembly Hall or on the athletic field. I have now a new Alma Mater to love and revere but it can never replace dear old S.C.I. or the newer S.C.I. and T.S. It can at best supplement them. I ask pardon for mentioning the old school particularly but it was, as it were, my first amour' and many who are here at McGill have known no other. The new school is, as it should be, a great monument to Progress, to the on-fiowing stream of Time and Change and New Op- portunity, and, as such, it must build up for itself an independent spirit and tradition. And, after all, who is it who shall determine whether it shall be an enviable tra- dition or otherwise? Is it not those who are students during the infancy of the school? But, there, I must be about my task! Collegiate readers want to know something about the Alumni at McGill not the reminiscences of one of them. The number of that body is annually growing and now we stand at the worthy level of thirteen bona fide members. Un- lucky thirteen do you say? May the activities of the men of our per- sonnel be allowed to speak for them- selves! No account would be satisfactory without john Allen, a graduate of some years past, at the head. john has now risen to the enviable posi- tion of Demonstrator in Physics in the University. Ted Newton is, of course, as busy dashing around as he was in the days when he was editor of the Collegiate He has carried his journalistic endeavours into the sphere of the McGill Daily. This year he is Managing Editor and next year will take up the reins as president of the Daily staff. The Presidency of the Union House is another position which he holds this year. IYe have the good news late- ly that he has been awarded a Fel- lowship and that. in view of this, he will continue his stay at McGill next year as Assistant in the English Department while taking his MA. work. XYalter Potter is Assign- ment Editor of the Daily and during the year he did good work on the Commerce Rugby Team. He gets his Bachelor of Commerce Degree this spring. Ross Harkness an- other Commerce man, has been raised to the ofhce of Night Editor of the Daily for next year. Among those who came down in '23 are Eddie Hanna, Ross Hayes, Miles Gordon and your humble ser- vant. Eddie made a name for him- self as the star half-back of the Senior Rugby Squad. As Vice-Pre- sident we find him active in the work of the Commercial Society. He also took part in the McGill Red and XVhite Review and in the Que- bec Indoor Track Championship at both of which he made a line show- ing. Buzz, also in Commerce, was probably the most promising de- fence man on the Senior Hockey Team and did some valuable work for McGill on the Golf Course, As Commerce Representative on the Union House Committee he was in close touch with the activities of that body. Miles, who is a Night Editor of the Daily this year, will 106 -Til-IE COLLEGIATE assume charge as Editor-in-chief next year. As secretary he has been prominent in the activities of his year Arts '.27. I have been con- tent to confine my energies to the Union House Committee, my year Basketball Team, the affairs of the Theological College to which I be- long and the activities of 1ny year Arts '.26. In the list of the '24 arrivals there are four men and one single co-ed. XYe admire the pluck of the young lady but, of course, we have always known Agnes Depew as a girl of great fortitude! She is in the School of Physical Education and featured on the Hockey Team and other activities of that school. Stan- ley Crompton is among the boys and has been active in the affairs of his year, Commerce 228. Fred Gus Pugh, also in Commerce, is listed among the number of the Senior Rugby Squad. Bruce Spears, too, made a fine showing in Senior Rug- by. XVe also find him on the Daily Staff and active in his year, Com- merce '28. johnson Kirby, who spent last year at Ann Arbor has come to us and is now in Second Year Arts preparing to proceed to medicine. It is worth noting, I think, that two organizations, the McGill Un- ion and the Daily are practically run by men of the S.C.I. Alumni, while on two major teams our dear old school is well represented. I should like to go on tospeak of the University and its many ad- vantages, of the city, the people and a thousand other thoughts which crowd into my mind but neither time nor space permit. Also, I call to mind the fact that Ted Newton gave you some valuable information along these lines in his letter two years ago. In this same letter he spoke of the McGill S.C.I. Alumni Association. Now we boast of members other than the officers and desire it to be known that, though not violently active, we are very far from being extinct! But now I must close. There is no need to add a final exhortation to S.C.I. Students. Believe me, I speak for the whole McGill Alumni when I express unshakeable faith in the ability and the determination of the present student body to make S.C.I. and T.S. famed abroad not solely for athletics, not solely for high academic standards, but, first and foremost of all, as an institution which produces REAL men, REAL women, REAL Canadians! VVishing this year's Collegiate every success, I am, Yours very sincerely, R.

Q Q512' THE COLLEGIATE I07 SCHOLARSHIPS MISS JEAN WOODWARK Miss .lean XVoodwark was one of our most conscientious and successful stu- dents of recent years. Hers was a life of academic activity, She was Vice-pre- sident of the Senior Literary Society, our representative in the lV.O.S.S.A. Qrator- ical Contest, Associate Editor of the last publication of The Collegiate, and valedictorian. Moreover we are proud to add that Miss XVoodwark was awarded the First 19.24 Carter Scholarship for Lambton County. Our best wishes for future success go with her. After spending two years at home, Clement XYhite had a desire for further education. He returned to school and in June IQZ4 he succeeded in obtaining the Second Carter Scholarship. Besides standing high in academic work, he also took an active interest in various other school activities. He was proficient in athletics and became a member of both the Senior Rugby Football team and the Basketball team. In addition he held oflices in the Cadet Corps and on the Executive of the Boys' Athletic Associa- tion. It is our sincere hope that he may have every success in the future.

S. has come through a very successful sport season. Our rugby team, despite the fact that many of last year's team are not at school went through for the W.O.S.S.A. championship with only one loss out of eight games played. In the finals for the O.R.F.U. Interscholastic championship they lost out in the last few minutes of play to Hamilton who were trailing in the third quarter. The excellent quality of sportsmanship displayed by the team when they lost at London can not be equalled by any school in the Dominion. Early in the summer the Board of Education started work on the campus and by fall it had been levelled. rolled and drained, putting the held in excellent shape for practices. Our hockey teams, although not receiving much support from the students have acquitted themselves well. The juniors lost only one game during the season while our senior team is still in the running for XY.O.S.S.A. honours. They have one of the fastest and neatest working teams in the history of the school this year. Owing to illness at critical times the basketball team did not go very far in their quest for the championship. They won their district easily but in the seini-finals were ousted by the fast London Central quint. In the last game of the season the S.C.I. and T.S. squad was badly weakened by the absence of Kennedy and Millman. 'IIO THE COLLDEGIATE e RUGBY 1 Once again rugby played the ma- jor role in school sports. Early in the fall its enthusiasts caught the rugby fever and a meeting was call- ed at which plans for the coming season were discussed. E'Ted Ken- nedy was elected to lead the team and Gleed XYorkman was fchosen as manager. The school was fortunate-this year in being able to secure the services of Ross QDollyj Gray as coach for the rugby teams. Dolly has play- ed the game for a number of years and was very well qualifiefd to suc- ceed -lack Newton. 'His eiperience with the -Sarnia Intermediates for the 'past ,few years1proved a val- uable asset to our 'teams, and it is hoped he will be able to lead them in their raice for the championship next season. Although the team this year had lost a number of its stars some ex- cellent material was drafted from the juniors to take the place of our graduates. Little need be said as to how well they upheld the example set by those who came before. The team got down to steady workas soon as the school term began and long before the Old Boys' game they were in excellent condition. Arrangement of the Schedule Ou September 27th. Dr. George A. Smith, Secretary of the 'W.O.S. SA.. announced the groupings for the Secondary Schools of Vtfestern Ontario. Sarnia C. I. and T. S. was grouped with lVindsor, Chatham and Petrolia, Sarnia and Petrolia to play off, the winner meeting the winner of the Chatham-lVindsor series in home and home games to be decided by October 24th. Points were to count on the round. D. A. Campbell of the Sarnia Collegiate was appointed convenor of theedxs- trict. old Bays 6-s.c.x. and T.s. 3 September 23rd ' According to the ancient custom the first Rugby game of the season was against the Old Boys. sf The Col- legiate wa's in goodlcondition for the game and gave Eddie Robinson and. his lZC3.1T1-'1'llZ'lf6SAOl'lC of the hard- est batt-le,s1put up in yea-rs losing out by hard luckiih the last frame. The game was played on the school cam- pus and attracted a fairly large crowd. ThevS.C.I. and T.S. drew the best of the play throughout the fracas, keeping the Old Boys'penned up in their 'own end mostof the time. The Old Boys had Amore weight than the Collegians and it was their bucking tactics that gain- ed them yards. During the first quarter, play was fairly even with neither team gain- ing much advantage. The first and only count of the period came when Carter booted to Howard who was forced to rouge. In the third frame Howard sent one out of touch to even the count. The turning point of the game came when Robinson punted to Kennedy who tried to take the ball on the run. He fum- bled and Crompton fell on it five yards out. The Collegiate held un- til Donohue smashed over for a touch with one yard to go. Robin- son failed to convert. The S.C.I. and T.S. started an aerial attack and forced the Old Boys to rouge again before time was called. For the Old Boys the plunging of Spears, Teskey, Donohue, Bell and Parks kept the Collegiate on the de- fence. Carter's booting was better than .both Robinson's and Howard's who were getting them too far and high for their forwards to get under in time. Dutch Simpson supplied the feature of the game when he sneaked through centre for a 35 yard gain. The Collegiate showed a well-balanced, snappy aggregation which promised to go far in the In- terscholastic race before the season ended. THE.

W. O. S. S. A. CONTESTS S.C.I. and T.S. 7-Petrolia 3 October llth. The opening game of the lY.O.S. SA, was held at Sarnia when Pe- trolia llard Oils were set back hy a score of 7-3, Sarnia carrying a lcflcl uf .L 11nil1fS 'tu liL'tl'lPllZl ful' fllt' rctnrn gaine which was played one week later. The game throughout was a kicking duel lmetween Carter and llyatt with Carter having an edge over his opponent. Sarnizfs chances looked bright at the beginning of the game, hut hy the end of the first period Petrolia was leading 3-O. Things took on a dillerent aspect in the second when Kennedy went over for a touch. Carter added another point on a kick to Petrolia's deadline just as the whistle blew. On an exchange of punts in the third, Carter scored another. The Hard Oils tightened up in the last quarter and presenting a stonewall defence, held Sarnia scoreless. For the S.C.l. and T.S. Millnian, Kennedy, lfwener and Carter were the pick. Kennedy scoring the only touch of the game. Carter had the advantage over llyatt, the fUl'lllCI'iS long spirals inevitalmly gaining ground for Sarnia. Fumbles on Sarnia's part however, rolmhed them of much of this advantage. Hyatt and Mcllattie were the lmest for Pe- trolia while McDongall's plunging was the feature of the game. IIZ THE CO LLEGIATE S.C.l. and T.S. 10-Petrolia 0 October 18th. In the return game at Petrolia on October 18th the Sarnia team put the Hard Oils out of VV.O.S.S.A. running by 10-0, winning the round by I4 points. During the Hrst per- iod it looked as though Petrolia would score before Sarnia got into the game, the ball being in Sarnia territory most of time. In the se- cond and third Sarnia had the edge of play but Petrolia came back strong in the fourth. At the kick- off Hyatt started a kicking attack. McHattie gave the Hard Oil fans a few anxious moments when he lost the ball near his own line. Sarnia failed to score however. and the per- iod ended 0-O. Carter kicked to the deadline in the second for Sarnia's first counter. McHattie and Pol- lard did some good bucking for Pe- trolia while VVorkman and Ewener did most of it for Sarnia. In the third Hallam gained yards for Sar- nia and Carter booted another to the deadline. The Hard Oils were for- ced to rouge in the last bringing the score to 4-0. On the first down YanHorne scooped up the ball and fought his way through for the lone touch of the game which was con- verted. Although the game was kept clean and fast it was not without a few fistic encounters and injuries were common. Sarnia carried a good crowd of fans with them but the Hard Oils had a poor crowd out. Hopper of Petrolia and Cowan of Sarnia handled the game. Baird of London was head linesman. S.C.l. and T. S. 7-Windsor 5 October 25th Sarnia's next game was at XVincl- sor where they took Al. Edwards and his outfit into camp to the tune of 7-5. Sarnia was leading by 7-0 until the final chapter when, with 50 seconds to go Edwards scored a touch which was converted. The S.C.I. and T.S. had a smoother work- ing team but VVindsor inclined to American rugby, which was over- looked by the referee. VVindsor's line was heavier than Sarnia's but the catching and handling of the ball by the Sarnia team had a wide margin over that of Vllindsor. Car- ter's punting was better than Hick's and Parsons and Burwell at ends turned in good games. Edwards starred for Wlindsor. The Collegiate took the lead at the start of the game, Kennedy sending Millman through the line for a touch which was converted. XYindsor still inclined to American by. In the third Carter kicked to the deadline for a point. 'With 3 minutes to go Carter booted to Ed- wards who pulled ofif a sixty yard run. From this position and with 50 seconds to play, VVindsor sco1'ed their lone touchdown. Something was wrong with the convert and al- though it was counted by the re- feree, the matter was taken up with the secretary of the O.R.F.U. and the point disallowed. The final score was 7-5 for the S.C.I. and T.S. S.C.l. and T.S. 8-Windsor 0 November lst The following Saturday saw the S.C.I. and T.S. with a two point lead to work on, turn back the VVindsor aggregation again by 8-0, winning the round by IO points. VVindsor still inclined to American rugby needing only the forward pass to complete it. Parsons and Bur- well at ends were good and were getting under Carter's kicks every time. Hallam turned in a good game while Millman and Ewener gave good plunging exhibitions. The whole Sarnia team presented a stonewall defence. Edwards starred for VVindsor but his kicking could not be compared to that of Carter. VVindsor took the wind and forc- ed the S.C.I. and T.S. to a defensive game. Play was evenly matched during the first quarter, neither team scoring. In the second stan- za, Hallam took Edwards' punt and returned it 65 yards and on a Wind- sor punt he booted a return to the deadline. Carter kicked two more THE COLLEGIATE Il3 to the deadline to make the score 3-0. ln the third Kennedy grabbed a loose ball and scurried over for a touch which was not converted. Play see-sawed back and forth in the last frame neither team count- ing. The game was handled by Baird of London and Lalonde of Toronto. S.C.I. and 15-Galt 15 November 5th The S.C.l. and T.S. squad was next ordered to meet Galt and on No- vember the 5th they made the trip there and succeeded in holding Galt to a 15-I5 tie. A 25 yard run by Kennedy and the silent plays of the locals which caught Galt napping featured the game. XYith eleven minutes to go Sarnia faced an eleven point deficit. but Hallam kicked eleven onsides in a row and Parsons and Manore went over for two touches. Reist and Patrick were the pick for Galt while Callum, Kennedy, Maitland, Millman and Carter were Sarnia's best. Sarnia started off strong, Parsons, going around the end for yards and Carter forced Reist to rouge. In the second Carter kicked and Shupe drop kicked for three points. The score stood 4-5 for Galt at half time. ln the third period Galt got a touch which was not converted. Shupe went over for a touch again at the beginning of the fourth and Sarnia sprung the surprise, when with only eleven minutes to go, Hallam kick- ed eleven onsides, nine of which were recovered. Parsons got the fifth and went over for a touch and with 30 seconds to go Manore grab- bed 'one which was converted by Carter just as the whistle blew. The largest crowd to witness a game this year at Galt was present. S.C.I. and T.S. 8-Galt 2 November llth In the return game at Sarnia on the eleventh. the S.C.l. and T.S. kept up their string of victories when they turned back the Galt Scotch- men by 8-2 and qualified to meet St. Thomas in the final round. The game was marked by constant fum- bling by both teams. Hurwell at end turned in a splendid game and Kennedy was the most spectacular man on the'field. He ran back a number of punts but was at times too much inclined to carry the ball himself. Ewener made two fine thirty yard runs and Kennedy fur- nished the thrill of the game when he took Reist's punt on his thirty yard line and went through for a touch down. Hallam who was hurt in the previous game, watched from the sidelines, but although he and lllillman were missing, Potter, Sou- thern and Hanwell of the seconds ably filled in. Galt opened strong. scoring two points in as many kicks to the dead- line Neither team scored in the second quarter, but in the third. Ewener plunged for thirty yards and Kennedy brought joy to the hearts of the S.C.l. and T.S. sup- porters when he took Reist's kick on Galt's 30 yard line and scored a touchdown but was forced to retire when his ankle gave out. Carter forced Galt to rouge and two min- utes later sent one to the deadline. The game was handled by Fickley of Hamilton and Cowan of Strat- ford. S.C.l. and T.S. 17-St. Thomas 6 November 21st Once again the old tradition held true when the S.C.I. and T.S. cham- pion seekers decisively defeated St. Thomas by 17-6 at Sarnia. In spite of the inclement weather a crowd estimated at 1500 attended. Car- terls booting was the big factor of the game while Ewener and Millman turned in fine games. Metcalfe and Green were the pick for the Saints. Kennedy was hurt in the first quar- ter and was carried off the field, Van Horne taking his place. Bus- ter Reid of London handled the game and was about as popular with everybody as the iceman on a cold day. He made two or three bad breaks and gave the Saints a touch 6 THE. COLLEGIATE. A. E.

St. Thomas o. lt was at the beginning of the second that the Saints got their touch handed to them. Plav was fairlv even during this period until YanHorne kicked an onside, Bur- well scoring a touch which was con- verted bv Carter. The third was good straight football. Carter scor- ed on' two kicks to the deadline. ln the fourth frame Brown was forced to rouge. the final score standing I7-6 for the S.C.l. and T.S. S.C.l. and T.S. l-St. Thomas 6 November 29th. The return game at St. Thomas was close throughout. Sarnia pre- sented a stubborn defence and play- ed an onside kicking game which started in a blinding snow storm and ended in semi-darkness. Carter's booting was good and Udell was the best for the Saints. Reid of Lon- don again handled the game and had a difficult job straightening out some of his blunders to the satis- faction of the teams. Neither team scored in the first period but in the second Udell made a touch after a 40 yard run by Bal- dwin . The touch was not convert- ed. Carter was forced to rouge in the fourth, making the score 6-o. Carter tried onside kicks which the Saints could not cope with and in the last minute kicked to Udell who was forced to rouge. The game was hard all the way through as the field was covered with snow and ice. Although the S.C.I. and T.S. lost here they retained their lead and thus won the XV.0.S.S.A. champion- ship. Owing to the lateness of the season it was decided that a sudden death game with Hamilton for the Interscholastic Champion- ship should be played in London on December 8th. 0. R. F. U. CONTEST S.C.I. and T.S. 2-Hamilton ll December 8th The supreme test for the team came when they met the Hamilton team in a sudden death game at Tecumseh Park, London, on De- cember Sth. At the beginning of the fourth Sarnia-was leading 2-I and, with Callum and Millman off for holding, Hamilton came from behind in the dying moments of the game to win one of the hardest fought battles ever waged iii an In- terscholastic series. Hamilton call- ed the signal for a fake kick which Sarnia was not looking for and Wfillard broke through for a touch. Hamilton added four more when the S.C.I. and T.S. tried too many onside kicks. In the first period Brown was forced to rouge. In the second Sarnia fans were given a bad scare when Hunter booted to Sarnia's one yard line. Carter kicked. Sarnia worked the ball up the field and Carter kicked to Hunter who was forced to rouge. He made a spec- tacular thirty yard run and forced the Hams to rouge again before the period ended. The last quarter proved disastrous to Sarnia's cause. Millman and Callum were penalized and Willard scored a touch for Hamilton. Hodd converted. The S.C.I. and T.S. tried onside kicks but Hamilton added four more points before the period ended. For the S.C.I. and T.S. Carter's kicking was fautless while his line gave him excellent support. Par- sons and Burwell were there every time and Millman was the most ef- fective man on the team, outside of Carter. Although the Collegians lost out in the final moments of the game, they came up smiling and de- spite the fact that they were plas- tered with mud they lined up and gave three cheers for Hamilton. Such spirit speaks well for S.C.I. and T.S. sportsmanship.

PRESENTATION OF MEDALS a . .-- On the morning of January Sth, 1925 the Senior rugby team was presented with silver medals donat- ed by the lYestern Ontario Second- ary Schools Association. Dr. A. N. Hayes made the presentation and Coach Ross Gray gave a short ad- dress in which he stressed the great achievement of the school in win- ning the championship. The play- ers presented were coached by Ross Dolly Gray and Beattie Son Jennings and included XYalter Cal- lum, John Manore, Howard Carter, Lloyd Hallam, Roy Brown, Harold VanHorne. Gerald McVean. Edward Kennedy, Cyril Teskey, Raymond Cook, XYm. Ewener. Gordon Mat- tingly, XYilfred Hand, Bruce Mait- land, Gleed XYorkman, Leslie Ewen- er, Logan Hillman, Frank Burwell, and St. Clair Parsons. Although Edgar Kellam was playing on the lirsts he was not awarded a medal in spite of the fact that he deserved on. as only nineteen medals are a- warded by the XYossa. In winning the championship the school played eight games winning six of them. The results were Pe- trolia I7-3.XYll1ClSOI' 15-5, Galt .23-I7, St. Thomas IS-12. They lost out in the Interscholastic Final to Hamil- ton at London after a hard game. Ross Cray'and Son Jennings de- serve a great deal of credit for the unselhsh manner in which they gave their time and experience to .the coaching of the team and it wigs greatly due to their line coachiiag that we were able to bring the lYossa championship to our school. The Observer had the following' comment to make after the' St. Thomas game there :- Sarnia has good reason to be proud of her two rugby teams. They brought two championships to the city in the games Finished on Saturday, Inter- mediate and lYossa. These teams are to go after still higher honours this week, but whatever fate has in store for them in the future battles nothing can dim the creditable re- cord already achieved. The quality of performance and sportsmanship on and off the field is a conspicuous characteristic of the organizations that have carried the Sarnia colours to victory this season. It has meant much to the prestige of Sarnia in athletic circles, and every citizen should feel proud of the winners. Summary Of the eight games played by the Senior team in the lY.O.S.S.A. ser- ies they have won six games, tied one and lost one. They rolled up a total of 73 points against 37 scor- ed by their opponents. THE SECSND TEAM E This year our junior rugby team was entered in the Junior XYossa series and although they did not get very far they made a very creditable showing. Many of last year's play- ers were drafted to fill the gaps in the senior team, but the seconds managed to produce a powerful squad. Much credit is due the sec- onds for the line support they gave the senior team both in practice and at the games themselves. Cecil Banwell was elected captain of the team and Bill Southern manager. The seconds were grouped with London, the winner to meet the lYindsor-lYalkerville T e ch ni c al team. S.C.I and T.S. II. 34-London 0 October llth. The Sarnia Juniors travelled to London for their opening engage- ment and knocked London's thoughts of championship sky-high, when they swamped them 34-O. The first period ended 10-0 and at half time stood at I7-O. Sarnia was the better team in every depart- ment. At three quarter time the score stood 23-O and in the last a touch by Strain, converted by South- I20 THE COLLEGIATE W, ,,,.L., ms.- .se-1..nnftx..

Showing the result of a week'S practice and superiority over Lon- don in every department of the game the Collegiate Juniors had no trouble in setting them back here by 29-0, winning the round by 63 points and qualifying to meet XVind- sor-lYalkerville Technical team in the next round. London's team was strengthened for the game and was a smoother working one than on the previous Saturday. For London. XX'ong, the Chinese flash, and Heard were the best. The running of Hol- ton, Strain and Potter for the S.C.l. and T.S. was oustanding as was the excellent kicking displayed by Ban- well. Ike Lampel gained ground consistently by plunges, Potter made a 75 yard sprint for one of Sarnia's touches. The S.C,l. and T.S. was leading by 5-0 at the end of the first and during the second Lampel went over for a touch which was converted by Strain. Potter added tive more points in the third and Sarnia ran loose in the fourth chapter bringing the score to 29-O. The game was clean throughout, no penalties be- ing awarded. S.C.l. and T.S. ll. 4-Windsor- Walkerville 10 November 3rd, The Windsor-XValkerville team THE COLLEGIATE l2l offered to play a sudden death game in Sarnia and the juniors took them up. It was a hard-fought game and a hard one for Sarnia to lose. The Collegiate's passing was away off colour and fumbles were respon- sible for the loss. XVindsor-XValk-- erville had a well-balanced team which took advantage of every mis- take Sarnia made. .lacquemain and Garrison were their stars. Potter kicked a field goal for Sarnia netting 3 points. In the second period ,lac- quemain netted a touch which he converted and then booted to the deadline for another point shortly after. Sarnia played a splendid, al- though a losing game, which was watched by one of the largest crowds to see a junior game in this city. Fickley of Hamilton and Cow- an of Stratford handled the game. SENIOR fl-IOCKEY The hockey season got under way to an early start when, on Decem- ber Ist a meeting was held in the Study Room at which it was decid- ed to place both a junior and senior team in the lY.O.S.S.A. race. The senior team was very fortunate in securing Lyle LeSueur, an old hoc- key star, to coach them and they take this opportunity of thanking Mr. LeSueur for his unsellish ser- vices. Hockey as usual was poorly supported by the students as a whole but despite difficulties one of the best teams to sport the blue and white sweaters was turned out this year. lYhen this was written they had played only two games, elim- inating Forest by IO-3 and were in the semi-finals. S.C.I. 3-Old Boys 2 The lirst appearance of the team was on the second of january when they rang up their first win of the season at the expense of the Old Boys by a 3-2 count in ten minutes overtime. Neither team had com- bination and injuries were plentiful though not serious. Referee:-O. N. lYilson. S.C.I. 5-Forest 2 After putting it off and on again for three weeks the S.C.I. seniors travelled to Forest and trimmed their seniors by a 5-2 count in a fairly fast game before a small crowd. The S.C.l. worked better together, shot better, and it was only some sensational work by Burke for Forest which kept the score where it was. Alpaugh, Roche and Todd were the pick of the losers and Manore was the most outstanding player for the S.C.l. Eddie Robinson handled the game. S.C.I. 5-Forest 1 In the return game here one week later the S.C.l. captured the district championship by virtue of their win over Forest by 5-I in a game which showed more disciplined hockey than any S.C.l. team ever boasted of. Four of the live goals Sarnia scored were on combination play. Alpaugh and Doolittle turned in splendid games for Forest as did Roche at centre. Brodie was a hundred per cent. better than at the start of the season. The S.C.l. has a team this year which should go a long way in the hockey race if they function as well for the remainder of the season as at the beginning. Macklin went on a scoring ram- page in the first, netting three goals in nine minutes. Burke, in the nets for Forest certainly turned in a wonderful game and none of the goals that went in could be laid to poor net-minding. There was no score in the second but Manore and Macklin slip in two in the third. Bill McCart of Sarnia refereed.

JUNIOR HOCKEY This year a new factor was intro- flucerl into the curriculum of school sports when a junior hockey team was formefl and entered in thehlun- ior lY.O.S.S.fX. Hockey series. The l,uncheon Club of the city 'decided to put two open air rinks on the campus anrl good ice accomodation was provided for hockey practice while it lasted. The Sarnia juniors were grouped with l'etrolia and al- though they did not win the cham- pionsliili they went a considerable distance in the series before they uc-re eliminated by London Central. fiorflon Storey, better known per- haps as Ding Storey was secured to coach the team and his excellent tutorsliip made them a powerful ag- gregation. The team take this op- portunity of thanking Ding for his services with them. S.C.l. 3-Petrolia 1, January 17th S.C.I 2-Petrolia 1, January 21st The Sarnia Juniors won the right to go against Exeter by virtue of their victory over Petrolia here 3-I and 2-I there. Petrolia had the ad- vantage of play both here and at home but the individual boring-in tactics of the blue and white were having their effect on the scoring. The llarcl Oils started the scoring in both games but could not hold their lead. Lampel, who was un- earthed hy the Sarnia Juvenile La- crosse team last summer saved the S.C.I. team a number of times when Petrolia threatened to trim them in THE COLLEIGIATE IZ3 Sitlling flvll lo riglitlf ,luni-ul' Cnnse, lint l'Iil!erQn11.

Mr. Keeber took over the girls this year and Son Jennings was secured to coach the boys' team. At the start of the season it was seen that we would have a strongi aggregation with Kennedy, Mill- man, Hallam. Parsons and Carter of last year's team still here. Added to these were two newcomers Van- Horne and Morris who certainly proved to be finds. lt was-not be- cause the S.C.I. had a poor team that they lost out to London Central but rather because two of the best men were sick and Parsons who played a forward position all season had to be dropped back to guard. It is to be hoped that next year ill- ness will not interfere with the team as it did this season. Ray Bouslog of Port Huron, who handled the Port Huron-Sarnia game there, also refereed the London game here and went over big with the Sarnia team and fans. S.C.I. 33-Port Huron 6 For the last few years back the S.C.I. and Port Huron High have played a series of exhibition games. Therefore, on Friday, January I6ll1 Son Jennings' squad took on the Port Huron High at Sarnia for the opening game, in which the Col- legians scampered all over the floor with them and won by a 33-6 count. Although outscored from the start the Port Huron lads stuck to their guns and were battling as hard at the last as the beginning. For the S.C.l. Kennedy who was supposed to be playing guard netted I3 points. Hallam added nine more while Cart- er bagged live. Morris and Parsons scored the remaining counters. Lindsay scored four of the six points Port Huron got, Steinborn bagging the other. The half time score was 18-3 for the S.C.I. ' S.C.I. 35-Strathroy 10 P The S.C.I. athletes took -a com- manding lead of the district S.S.A. title when they trimmed Strathroy there in a fairly fast game by a 35-IO count on January 23rd. The Collegiate took the lead at the start and were never headed. Handicapped by the small floor the S.C4I. could not get their combina- tion to work. Hallam lead the scor- ing with 20 points, Kennedy running him second with 13. Parsons and Morris combined well but had no luck in scoring. VanHorne, Mait- land and Millman were strong on the defence. The Strathroy team this year is a green one but they have good prospects for next year. S.C.I. 21-Port Huron 24 The Collegians dropped their first game of the season to Port Huron there on Friday, Feb. 7th by a 24-21 score. Sarnia took the lead in the first and held it until the last when Port Huron forged ahead. Lindsay, Clark and Steinborn were the best for Port Huron while Hallam and Vanl-lorne turned in good gamesifor the S.C.I. Kennedy was away off his form and could not locate the basket. The S.C.l. combination was better than in the game at Sarnia but their shooting was the worst exhibition put up this year. The game drew a good crowd of which a large percentage were from the Sarnia school. S.C.I. 36-Strathroy 16 In the return game at Sarnia the team easily showed their superior- ity over Strathroy by trimming them 36-I6 and winning the round 69-26. Despite the fact that they THE COLLEGIATE. I25 BOYS' BASKETBALL TEAM Left to Riglit- Son Jennings fCoaehl. Howard Horn, Cecil Morris, St, Clair Parsons. Ted Kean efly, L Carter.

The S.C.l. quint were trying too many long shots and were not working in on their basket enough. Brady for Strathroy who scored I2 of their 16 points shot most of his from near Centre and was having more luck here than close in. Kennedy topped the scoring for both teams but even he was away ol? his game. Morris, the newcom- Gil' to the team turned in a good game and netted 4 points. The game, although not speetaeular was clean. only three personals being handed ont. S.C.I. 15-London Central 23 Sarnia now qualiiied to meet Lon- don Central in the semi-iinals and went there for the opening game on February 23rd. XVhile they were getting used to the Hoor, London paraded in enough baskets to win the game in spite of the great rally staged by the S.C.I. in the last frame. London had the strongest team the 'locals have stacked up a- gainst and at quarter time the score stood 15-7 for London. lfaeh team scored five points on free shots. The guarding was strenuous and the forwards of both teams experienced great difficulty in working in on the basket. Cook was l..ondon's best, netting I2 points. llallam of Sarnia came next with 7 points, one more than Harbour of London netted. Yan- llorne turned in his best game of the season but Kennedy was oft in his shooting and sensational rush- ing. IZ6 THE CO LLEGIATE. S.C.I. 25-London Central 27 The S.C.I. team was badly crip- pled for the return engagement with Ted Kennedy and Loge Mill- man out of it and were forced to take the short end of a 27-25 score, losing the round by 50-40. Logan and Barbour were the flashiest players London trotted out and Morris and VanHorne, the two newcomers to the team turned in wonderful games. Hallam was per- haps, the most effective player the S.C.I. had. London started out strong but Sarnia spurted in the sec- ond outscoring them 8-6 while in the last half they bagged I7 points to the I3 London tallied. The game drew a capacity crowd and was handled in great shape by Ray Bouslog of Port Huron. Summary Out of 4 games played the S.C.I. won 2 and lost 2. In the four games they scored a total of III points and had 76 counted against them. These games take in only those played in the lVossa series. S. C. I. 35-Strathroy IO. S. C. I. 36-Strathroy 16. S.

Inter-form Basketball League This year a new feature was in- troduced into basketball by the forming of a school Basketball Lea- gue. Owing to some persevering work by Mr. Keeber and George McPhail a schedule was drawn up and games commenced on Thursday, December Ilth. Considerable in- terest has been taken- in this sport and the boy's gymnasium was crowded nearly every night. To stimulate more interest in the series a charge of 50 cents a team was made and the money was used to buy pennants for the winning quints. Each form had a team in the series. The teams were divided into two groups, the senior com- prising the 3rd, 4th, and 5th years and the junior taking in the ISt and 2nd years. The junior group was divided into two sections, the first years in one and the seconds in the other. These teams were to play off at the end of the schedule. Vtlhen this was written up the fifth form team was leading in the senior series and will certainly win the championship. In the junior the winner of the first form teams will play the winner of the second forms in a week or two. Interform basket- ball this year has been a great suc- cess and next year will likely see it better than ever. THE W.O..S.S.A? TRACK TEAM On Saturday, May I7tl'l, 1924, the fifth annual track meet of the TMO. SSA. was held at Queen's Park, London, before a rather small crowd. The poorly conditioned S. C. I. team was outclassed in the senior and intermediate events and was forced to stand by and see the junior championship snatched from them when they could not field a re- lay team. The Sarnia Collegiate paraded their way to the top of the ladder but in the last event they fell Hat and London forged ahead to win the junior championship. Ken. Fraser was the sensation of the meet. The S.C.I. was not bank- ing on the juniors to do very much and his spectacular work of winning the junior individual championship when least expected was the feature of the meet. He received a first in one event and came second in all the others. In the shot put he re- ceived a first with a distance of 29 feet, 7 inches. Kennedy was the only senior to THE COLLEGIATE l27 KEN. FRASER Junior Individual Champion. place in the events but he had prac- tically no training. Poor weather conditions, with a gale blowing in the faces of the runners kept the attendance down. The S.C.I. sup- porters were few and far between and their rooting was a minus quan- tity. In other years it has been the Collegiate who did most of the root- ing and who forced the other schools to keep up their reputation. Douglas XYestman of London Central broke the only record of the meet in the I2 pound shot put, beating the re- cord by 3 feet. London took the track meet by storm, winning both Intermediate. Senior and junior Championships. The S-.C.f. was the runner-up in the junior with I7 points against the .21 London Central got. ln the junior events Ken. Fraser came second in the high jump, 75 yard dash, running broad jump and stood first in the shot put. Although the S.C.l. did not win any of the trophies they lost a cou- ple of years ago, they are banking on bringing home at least two of them next year. XYith Ken. Fraser and Patterson in the junior events we are almost certain of the junior championship. The team did not get the necessary training last year but this spring will see an altogether different team go to London if ad- vance expectations are any criteria. CONDITION THE Mosi tRy' Gerald H. McYeanj Every athlete knows that the most vital asset in all sports is physical condition. Without it even the best athletes are held back. They are always outclassed by their equals who are in perfect condition. Some games require better condition than others: for instance Hockey, Rugby and Basketball need far better con- dition than l-laseball and less stren- uous games. Many things are necessary to bring about a good physical condi- tion such as sleep, diet and exercise: probably the most important of these is sleep. Regular hours with lots of sleep are the first hard and fast requisites for athletes. Many experts are against set rules and regulations for training because no IMPORTANT FACTOR two athletes have the same char- acteristics and temperament: each one has to be trained in a different manner. but they all agree that the man who desires physical perfection must get a lot of sleep. Probably the next most important factor is diet. Meals should be tak- en at regular hours and nothing be- tween meals except apples and fruit. The hour for breakfast is a much discussed question among trainers. XYalter Camp, Americas foremost authority, favours very early break- fast. Tilden the world's tennis champion, states that breakfast should be taken any time before nine-thirty a.m. On the question of what to eat Ellery Clark, former all round athlete champion of the LYS., says to eat anything that l28 THE COLLEGIATE BOYS' LIFE SAVING TEAM To Row rleft to rightl-Burton XYadland, Jack Harris.

Next comes the all important question of exercise. Boys who are in training for some competition us- ually have their heart in their work and often do too much work instead of not enough and then they be- come stale. This state of staleness is not to be overcome in a short time but usually requires a lay-oft of pro- bably two or three weeks before the athlete regains his former spring and quickness. The best method for reducing Flesh and developing wind is long runs in the open air but for such games as Hockey and Basketball this is practically im- possible for climatic and other rea- sons and other means have to be adopted. The athlete is warned a- gainst extensive training immed- iately before any events in which he is to participate. A lweek or at least three or four days before any big event the training should be ta- pered off and rest and quiet are ad- vised for the last day or two. Then when he goes to the starting line or the field he has lots of energy in reserve. It is needless to say that athletes must have absolutely nothing to do with alcohol or tobacco in any form. Alcohol tends to shorten the wind and etfect the eyesight. Tobacco shortens the wind and also has its aifect on the eyesight. If the aver- age person does not eat too many fatty foods. gets regular hours of sleep and takes a good brisk walk every day he will not be far from physical iitness at any time in life.

For the rising generation we suggest baking powder, and rice powder for Chinamen. Rouge should not be applied more than twenty-three times daily, while users of lipstick might remember that, murder will out. To be beautiful, the hands should be washed once weekly, If Lux is used we guarantee they will not shrink. Crooked teeth, if extracted will not mar the mouth. Molasses mixed with an equal amount of tar is recommended for a shiek's hair tonic, while bobbies need only a few curling waves.

The XYisconsin ice sheet which was the last of the last of the great glaciers to invade this country has naturally left the most lasting results. As this glacier re- treated, some twenty-tive thousand years ago, the water in the Great Lakes, which themselves had been formed earlier in the Ice Age, was set free while the natural outlets remained ice-blocked. The inevit- able result was that a large number of so-called glacial lakes were form- ed. No other region in the world possesses so many lakes of all sizes and shapes as Canada and most of these were Caused by the hollowing of basins of ice work or the dam- ming of valleys by drift deposits. says Professor Coleman, of the Uni- versity of Toronto. Canada is then, fundamentally a land of lakes and rivers. As a nation we are depen- dent on them for a very large part of our natural wealth, for our fish- ing industry, for our navigation, and for our water-power, on which depends a great many of our indus- tries. Consequently it was with keen displeasure, and stormy pro- tests that we heard the startling announcement that Chicago was acting as a bootlegger of Canadian Water. In 1899 the Illinois Legislature passed an act permitting Chicago to solve her sewerage problem by di- recting the waste material from the city into the Chicago ,river, on into the Des Plaines, Illinois and Mis- sissippi Rivers and on to the Gulf of Mexico. In order to employ this system the Chicago River was join- ed to Lake Michigan by a canal and the current in the river was changed. In order to accomplish this, and to dilute the waste ma- terial. it was necessary to turn ten thousand cubic feet of water per second, from Lake Michigan into the Sanitary Canal. Chicagok has for several years past been taking this amount of water from the Great Lakes with the obvious re- sult that the lake levels have lower- ed considerably. ln 1924 the water in Lake Huron and in Lake Erie lowered between one and two feet. The Illinois Legislature supported Chicago's action in all probability because they wished to establish a water route from the Lakes to the Gulf. The XYar Department Per- mit. on the other hand allowed that city only four thousand, one hun- dred and sixty-seven cubic feet per second. Chicago fought and is still lighting staunchly all opposition to her claim and declares that her worst enemies are the supporters of the St. Lawrence waterway. However, on January the sixth of this year, the Supreme Court of the United States decided the question against Chicago. Although this city is determined not to be beaten and threatens to appeal to Congress, the decision of the Supreme Court was decided victory for Canada, and it is thought will assist in the set- 24 THE CO LLEGIATE. tlement of the drainage and canal dispute. , Yiewed from the standpoint of Canada, Chicago's action is prepos- terous. One of our leading states- men says of it There was no such thing in the history of any country, where they would divert water from its natural course without the consent of interested parties. Had it continued it would vitally have aifected the locksills of the Sault Ste. Marie, XVelland and St. Law- rence canals. ln addition, this stealing of water amounting to three hundred and forty thousand cubic feet a minute would have had a very serious effect on the shipping con- ditions beween Montreal and the sea, and would have robbed Canada of millions and millions of dollars worth of waterpower. Of course the border towns and cities suffered most. Already it has affected har- bours on which millions of dollars have been expended. Then too, with the lowering of the water level in places that are comparatively shal- low, comes the dangers of an im- pure drinking water supply. It is no wonder then that Canada upheld the United States Government a- gainst Chicago when she' saw the health of her citizens impaired, her navigation impeded and the nation about to be robbed of untold wealth and water power. O THE VISIT OF THE PREMIER On Monday, Ian. 19th, the Hon- ourable Howard Ferguson was in the city in connection with Sarnia's Public Health Vkfeek, and in the af- ternoon visited our school. Every- one had heard the glad news of the premier's expected visit, with the result that, although the meeting took place out of school hours the Assembly Hall was packed. In ad- dition to the students of the school, there were present as many pupils from the senior classes of the public schools as could be accommodated. On the platform were Mr. Fergu- son, the chairman, Mr. Campbell, the teachers of the public school, and several representatives of the medical profession, including Dr. Godfrey, Minister of Public Health for the province. After a few remarks from Mr. Campbell, which gave us a glimpse at the boyhood days of our visitor and thoroughly convinced us that he was indeed very much of a boy, the Rev. J. R. Hall delivered a short address. Mr. Hall was chairman of the Board of Education when our school was being built. Mr. Harold VanHorne then welcomed the prem- ier on behalf of the school in a speech in which he Ttactfully re- minded us that Mr. Ferguson was an advocate of no homework. The Premier was then introduced and after a few reminiscences of his own school days, pointed out to us the benefits of an educational system such as we have in operation now in Ontario. He stated also that he was not in favour of the en- tire abolition of homework espec- ially in High Schools, but that he did believe that in the past too much home studying had been assigned to the pupils of the public schools, a practice which has been recently discontinued. You may be sure that this statement met with stormy applause from the public school pu- pils present. Two selections from the orches- tra and the singing of O Canada by the school added considerably to the somewhat lengthy pro- gramme. By.the time the various addresses had been given it was fast approaching five o'clock. Signs of uneasiness began to make them- selves quite evident on the faces of some of the students, probably be- cause they feared they should have time for homework, when suddenly he premier arose with a broad smile on his face and announced that he wished the next day to be a holiday. At this statement, a loud applause broke forth, due of course to the enthusiasm of the junior pupils, for the sophisticated fifth formers in the front row would not relax a muscle, probably, because they se- cretly felt the news far too good to THE CO LL EGIATE p 25 be true. However when Mr. Camp- bell stated that the Board of Edu- cation would have to bow to the will of the premier, as the official head of the province, even the lordly seniors deigned to applaud. The meeting then closed by singing of the National Anthem. Although Sarnia fathers of to-day may be not by any means perfect in their politics, Mr. Ferguson has certainly won the favour of the coming gen- eration. O. .. MAN'S REDEMPTION OF MANKIND About the middle of last century the scientihc world was filled with wonder at the remarkable discover- ies of Louis Pasteur. Through his achievements he has probably done more to preserve human and animal life than any other human being. Before the celebrated scientist was twenty-one years old he had the op- portunity of listening to chemistry lectures, given by the prominent French chemist, Dumas. He was fascinated, with the subject and af- ter he had received his doctor's de- gree, determined to devote himself to research work in chemistry. He began by studying crystalline forms. From the study of crystals he was led to attack the subject of fermen- tation and then successively the problems of spontaneous generation, the maladies of wine and beer, the diseases of silk worms, the germ theory of diseases of animals and man, and the production of vaccines for the prevention and cure of in- fectious diseases. His life work was devoted to revealing the role in nature, which is played by the mi- croscopic forms of life, chiefly the bacteria. His motto was Seek the Germ. To the student of science, the study of bacteria is one of the most interesting in nature. The bacteria are the minutest of known living things, some of them being less than one ten thousandth of an inch in diameter. ln shape some are spherical, others spiral, and prob- ably the best known are rod-like forms, known as bacilli. They are unicellular in structure and multiply by simply splitting apart, a process known as fission. Some bacteria are parasitic and others saprophitic. Many species Cthere are about four- teen hundred forms in alll have the peculiar property of developing thick-walled resting spores, capable of surviving, a temperature above the boiling point of water, and also below, its freezing point. Conse- quently many are difficult to com- bat. However a great many forms of bacteria can completely be de- stroyed by boiling for ten or fifteen minutes. Bacteria or germs are present everywhere, in the air, in the dust, in the bodies of animals and human beings but, when in the ac- tive form can only live in some nu- trient medium. They must be in contact with water. Some germs are man's worst enemies, while others, the decay bacteria, are in- dispensible to him. It is a well known fact that these bacteria, are the real cause of a great many of our contagious di- seases, diphtheria, typhoid fever, pneumonia, infiuenza, and whooping cough, and our whole theory of con- tagious diseases is founded on the reseaches of that little Frenchman, Pasteur, who was fired by a pas- sionate love of science and an equal- ly strong love of humanity. Nearly everyone knows that it was he who conquered hydrophobia. This was his last great achievement. Pasteur had long studied this peculiar di- sease when he finally made his great discovery. For sometime af- ter he had learned that vaccinated clogs were immune from rabies he feared to use the same vaccine on a human being. One day however he was brought to a decision when a little boy, 'joseph Meister, about years of age, was brought to very badly bitten. Two doc- were consulted then the child inoculated. During the con- nine him tors was siderable time he was treating the child, Pasteur. suffered untold pain, for fear that in attempting to save 26 TI-IE COLLEGIATE life he should destroy it instead. His joy as the child was restored in perfect health to its parents, is one of the most beautiful episodes in history. Throughout his life Pasteur was inspired by religious sentiments and a burning love for nature and man- kind. Hr thnx made reply: . v, ta an attrntlw rar, Plu'lu:uf'l:.

THIS PUBLICATION The task of preparing the maga- zine for the press, has on the whole been a pleasant one for the editors, owing to the excellent co-operation of the student body. XVe feel that this is an indication of our fast- growing school spirit. ln former years, nearly all the work has been done by the students of the Colleg- iate Department, but this year, each department has responded nobly. The commercial forms have sub- mitted some splendid contributions, especially of art. Form 3A de- serves special mentiong we congrat- ulate you. Of course, there is still room for improvement, notably in the Junior forms, yet we are hoping that next year, our juniors will fol- low the splendid example of the seniors. The magazine staff en- deavoured to stimulate interest in this issue by offering two pennants, one to the senior form and another to the junior form, contributing the most poetry, prose and art publish- ed in this issue. However, we feel that the students have been prompt- ed to write, not by any desire for reward, but by a desire to see this publication a success. NVe should like to thank every- one who has assisted us, either by contributions or advice. We are grateful to the girls of the com- mercial department, who have so kindly typed all our material. Our one regret is that we were unable to print all the contributions. V A question arose this year C011- cerning the naming of the maga- zine. In former years it has been called the Collegiate, but on ac- count of our composite school this name was considered by some to be unsuitable as it represented only one of the three departments. The question was referred to the stud- ent body and at a morning assembly five students representing the var- ious departments, expressed their opinions on the matter. It was found that the majority of the stu- dents including those from the Technical department, preferred to retain the old name Collegiate if. Z L-1 LJ L fv --4 A V E L Y...

They meet alternate weeks, the meetings being attendedf by the 'respective student bodies when for forty min- utes they are entertained by their fellow students. The first meeting was held in the latter part of September when nom- inations were made for the various officers of the executive. Gleed XYorkman acted as chairman. A few days later the election was held with ballots, scrutineers and one voting poll being placed on each floor. :Xt the next meeting the newly elected officers were given a chance to thank their supporters, and the president and secretary gave short orations on the value of debating, oratory, art and drama. The programme of the succeeding meetings were given over to the elimination contests for the Ora- torical and Debating Contests. The speeches were very interesting and beneficial to the members of the society. Drama was also introduced to the members of the Senior Society when a few students portrayed the 'trial scene' of Shakespeare's Mer- chant of Venice. Margaret Bent- ley deserves great credit for the manner in which she protrayed the difficult role of Portia. The efforts of the others of the cast were also appreciated by the audience. Miss Ferguson spent many hours of her time training these youthful actors and much credit is due her for the success of the programme. So that more benefit might be derived from the criticism of each meeting, an amendment was made in the constitution. For this year, the critic is chosen for three con- secutive meetings from the teach- ing staff, and gives the report at the end of each meeting. One of the main duties of the ex- ecutive of this society is to support the other organization of the school. and it is not failing in this respect this year. XYith the aid of Mr. Campbell and the teachers, the ex- ecutive of this society chooses the members of the Collegiate,' staff. A fee of ten cents is collected from all students for membership in the society. The officers elected for the execu- tive for IQ24-.25 are:- Honorary President-Miss Fer- guson. President-Cleed NYorkman. Yice-President-H a r ol d Y a n- Horne. Secretary-Isabel Foster. Treasurer-Thomas Newlands. Girl Reporter-Edna Cobban. Boy Reporter-Ifdward Kennedy.

THE JUNIOR LITERARY SOCIETY The Vlunior Literary Society was formed on account of the unwieldi- ness of one literary organization to include the eight hundred pupils in the school. There are seven rooms represented in the Senior Literary Society and sixteen in the Junior. Fifth, fourth, and third forms be- long to the Senior organization, and the second and first form are mem- bers of the -lunior. The aim of this society is to give as many pupils as possible an op- portunity for practice in public speaking. Oratory, Debating, Mus- ic: the Drama, Science have a place in the varied programs. Parlia- mentary rules of order are followed and this is making the pupils in gen- eral familiar with such business procedure. The teachers have co- operated with the executive by practising the pupils .for the respec- tive programmes, and by acting as critcs for the meetings. The offi- cers of the society have taken great pride in their work, and have co- operated splendidly with one an- other. So far the critics' reports have been very favourableg they state that a very high standard has been set by the Junior Literary So- ciety already. Tlie first programme was chiefly musical. Those who made contri- butions were: Pauline Mills, At- wood Kennedy, Kenneth Zink, Charles Brush, and Maurice Rhodes. The junior members of the orches- tra with Mr. Brush were much ap- preciated. too. for their willing sup- port.

The returns of the Membership Fee campaign were very gratifying. In three days ZA and 2B Technical, 2A Collegiate, and 2A and 2B Com- mercial had a one-hundred per cent membership. The collectors wereg Clifford Frayne, XVallace Brown, Kenneth Porter, Jean Claxton, and Ann Huggard. The other rooms steadily improved their membership until practically IOOf7b has been reached for the sixteen junior rooms of the school. VVe hope that this loyal co-operation of everyone in the Junior Literary Society this term will be a challenge to the future organization.

COMMENCEMENT The annual commencement exer- cises took place in the Assembly Hall on Friday afternoon, Septem- ber the nineteenth. By two o'clock the room was filled with proud par- ents and expectant students, who eagerly awaited the coming event. In his opening remarks Mr. Towers, chairman of the Board of Education, welcomed the student body on be- half of the Board, and congratulated those who were to receive honours. Mr. Campbell in his report of the school work stated that the school had made progress not only in ath- letics but also in the academic side. Miss Jean lVoodwark, who,had the honour of being the first-girl valedictorian in the history of the school, very ably expressed the feel- ings of her fellow students on leav- ing the school. She pointed out that although they would no longer be here, yet the school would have a very prominent place in their thoughts, and that memories of life in the S. C. I. and T. S. would spur them on to greater achievements. The presentation of diplomas and other honours was made by Mr. George Brown, Rev. R. Hall, Chas. Grace and Mr. Gray, who act- THE CO LL EGIATE 33 ed in the absence of Dr. Hayes. While the freshmen and juniors watched the seniors receive the honours for efficiency in a four or Five year course, as the case might be, new hopes sprang up, and great resolves were formed to achieve like recognition in the years to come. After the presentation a varied and pleasing program followed. The school orchestra under the able leadership of Mr. Brush rendered several much-appreciated selections. The violin solo by Kenneth Zink was very well received. Miss Dor- O othy French contributed a vocal solo in her usual pleasing manner. As a diversion from the musical numbers james Prendergast gave a splendid presentation of Dr. Drum- mond's poem De Nice Leetle Ca- nadienne. To demonstrate efficien- cy of the girls' work in drill periods, two folk dances, La Ieunesseu by Misses Pauline Mills and Grace Batesg and Autumn Caprice by Misses Frances Grace and Olive McGrath, were executed in a de- lightful manner. Another selection by the orchestra brought this suc- cessful program to a close. THE ORCHESTRA The S. C. I. Sz T. S. Orchestra is a most important organization in our school life. Perhaps those who occupy seats in the auditorium every morning, do not realize how much the orchestra adds to the general enjoyment of the morning assem- bly. But, if the orchestra should fail to appear, there would come a quick realization of how vitally im- portant it has become. Under the able and untiring lead- ership of its conductor, Mr. Brush, it has become an orchestra that any school would be proud to own. Its music is the best. It can be truth- fully said that it has passed the initial stage. The orchestra consists of seven violins, including the leader's, three trumpets, a clarinet, saxophone, trombone and a base horn, all of which are skillfully played by the members. In addition to the work which it does in school hours for the enter- tainment of the students and staff, it has been present at several ac- tivities of the school which take place after the school day. The audience who came to the school the night of the XVossa Oratorical Contest were pleased to hear be- sides the speeches which they had expected, many selections by our orchestra. Any confusion or dis- turbance which might have taken place while the speakers were pre- paring to appear on the platform was overcome by this most welcome diversion. The orchestra also played in the Auditorium the night the girls' de- bating team of the school met that of Stratford Collegiate and the boys' team met that of London Cen- tral Collegiate. Before the debate began the audience was favored with music from the orchestra and the time which elapsed while the judges were making their decisions was also employed in this way. The operetta which the Glee Club of the school presented last year was accompanied only by piano. That performance was universally voted a great success. This year, however, even greater honors were attained since the whole school or- chestra was used in the place of the piano. Thus you may see that the or- chestra is a rising power in our school. XVithout it we would lind ourselves severely handicapped and that is the reason it is so greatly appreciated. 34 THE COLLEGIATE ORCHESTRA Sitting tleft to righth-Helen Pruut, Leona Class, Charlie Brush, Ruth Carter, Alina Taylor, Kenneth Zinc.

AQUATIC EVENTS 1925 On November S, IQZ4 the tank season ofthe Collegiate opened with a large crowd attending the lirst meet. This meet was held to de- cide the school Champions for 1925. The Port Huron Life Saving Club were invited to participate and re- sponded by putting on a very in- teresting demonstration in Life Sav- ing and several novelty stunts such as eating, drinking and playing cards under water. The rest of the pro- gramme was presented by the stud- ents of the school and every event was keenly contested. The interest in the :Xrluatic Meets is very high in the city and the spectators are always very enthusiastic in their applause. In the boys swimming events, Dave McKenzie, Edgar Kellarn and Alex Hayes were the stars while tl. Mclieown and Jackson gave a very good diving exhibition. Miss il. NYheatcroft, Miss li. lXlcBurney and Miss V. Simpson starred for the girls. The novelty stunts attracted much interest and caused a great deal of merriment. Charlie Grace gave a caricture of an old woman falling into the pool to be rescued by the heroic Cliff Carter. Dave McKen- zie gave a very realistic imitation of a giant fish when he dragged Bill Constable, the angler into the water. Eddie Hargrove proved himself to be the champion cork collector THE COLLEGIATE 35 of the school while Miss Jean VVheatcroft seemed to be the best balloon handler. , The Port Huron Club annexed first and second places in the plunges with Kellam of Sar- nia, third. In the Senior Boys' Re- lay Race, Kellamis team beat Mc- Kenzie's in a close finish. City Aquatic Meet On February 7th an open swim- ming meet was held for the purpose of interesting swimmers in the City. This meet was the outcome of the requests of the city stars who are unable to compete in the school meets. In spite of the short time for preparation and the fact that the swim was held on Dollar Day, the turnout was good and the students had a hard task in holding their tank titles. As City Championships were at stake every event was fast and close, while the judges had a difficult task to perform. The girls' department ran close behind the boys' in collecting points. The work of Misses Jean 'Wheat- croft, Flo Laugher and Frances Grace was exceptionally good in the Senior Class with Miss V. Simpson heading the juniors. In the Senior Boys' events Edgar Kellam proved to be the dark horse of the evening when he defeaed George Scott in the speed event. The school relay team did the un- expected when they beat the fast Technical and City teams. In the underwater race Lawson surprised himself by nosing out Les Smith who annexed the city title for the backstroke. Cliff Carter came first in the long plunge. In the junior Boys' events Pater- son, Hayes, and Ivinson compared favourably with the Seniors while Jackson made a good impression with his diving. The judges had a hard task in the Senior Diving in judging between Charlie Grace and joe McKeown. A great improvement is noted in the students who use the pool and the school ought to be able to hold its own in any intercollegiate aqua- tic events when swimming takes its proper place in the high schools and collegiates. The first event of the evening was a Relay Race between the boys of the school and those of city. Al- though it was a close finish the school team came in victorious as did the Commercial Department in the following competition against the Collegiate. In the Candle Race which was a very amusing and pret- ty sight the girls held the lighted candles aloft with one hand and with the aid of the other battled a- gainst the wind and waves. In this Florence Laugher was the winner. In the swimming race for junior Miss Vida Simpson came first and secured herself as junior champion. Jean iYheatcr0ft with her custom- ary graceful diving came first in the Ladies' Diving competition, but Frances Grace was a close second. IVin XYheatcroft also came first in the 100 yards free style dash and in the back race and hence was made senior champion. Although Joseph McKe0wn has always been con- sidered our diving star Charlie Grace put him in second place this year and established himself as Diving Champion. On the whole the school won against the city but that was probably to be expected as we have the pool always with us and if we do not get practice we have no one to blame. XYe have hopes that Mr. Keeber will go on with the swim- ming clubs he mentioned and make our swimming even more apt than the present. The events and their results are as follows. 50 yds.

Excellent material fairly swarmed to the range for a try out, with the result that, the school was very capably repre- sened in the meet at London. 5Ve have now two teams far exceeding the expectations of their captain and instructor, Mr. Fielding. By means of the hearty co-oper- ation of the students involved, Mr. Fielding was able to obtain for the school a collection of bronze, silver and gold badges greatly out-num- bering that obtained last year. From the ever increasing activity we may conclude that the interest in the shooting gallery has been revived and instead of the scattered few of two years ago, many are those now striving to obtain honours in marks- manship. RIFLE SHOOTING Very keen interest in rifle shoot- ing has been taken this year by the members of the cadet battalion of the S. C. I. 3: T. S. Since the school first opened in September both Mr. Fielding and Mr. Keeber have been kept busy looking after this branch of the school acivities, and the re- sults are indeed satisfactory and complimentary to them. At the beginning of the term the members of last year's team began to get in shape for the King George Challenge Cup Competition held at London on October 24, 1924. The outcome of this match was very favorable considering that this is the hrst year in which our school entered a team in this competition. Ile reached eighth place in a field of fifteen competing teams. The personnel of this team was: F. Allaire, L. Bryant Qcapt.5, R. Heale, C. Holtom Qvice-capt.5, F. james, F. Lewis, H. Potter. G. Pat- terson, B. Spears, F. Wlhitcombe. The honours in this group were obtained by: Ist R. Healeg 2nd H. Potter, 3rd B. Spears. In addition to this branch of shooting, there is that of miniature ride shooting, in which our school entered a team last year with good results. This year, there are two senior teams entered in the D.C.R. Af' Miniature Rifle Competition, winter series: but as yet only one match has been fired. This one match, however, shows us, by an average of 93.3327 for A Team, and an average of 86.5821 for B Team, that we are going to have a much better standing in the competition than last year.

AT I-TOME The most important social event of the school year, the At Home, was held on Saturday evening, DC- celnher the twentieth. The number of ex-students present at the dance exceeded the number present in pre- 38 THE COLLEGIATE vious years. so that, the committee in charge felt amply repaid for its work in giving the dance for the ex-students. The boys' gymnasium was trans- formed into a multi-coloured ball- room by many willing workers. Rows of streamers dangled above the heads of the dancers while rows of balloons ran lengthwise across the gymnasium, until the balloon dance when they gave many a cou- ple a merry chase around the floor. The orchestra held the place of hon- our in the centre of the room, in a stand beautifully draped with streamers and adorned with bal- loons. This orchestra of six pieces, known as the Night Hawks, fur- nished the participants with the lat- est revues and encores were con- stantly in demand. . Robber dances took the place of the regular programme dances with several novelty dances intermingl- ed. The spirit shown in these dances was note-worthy and seem- ed contagious for soon the patrons and patronesses were eager partici- pants in the dancing. Another at- traction of the evening was the fruit punch and the cookies which were served from side tables throughout the evening. Everyone voted the evening a splendid success and were loath to leave the Hoor. even after the strains of Home Sweet Home had died away. The Patrons and Patronesses for the evening included: Mr. and Mrs. D. A. Campbell, Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Goodison, Dr. and Mrs. A. N. Hayes, Mr. and Mrs. L. H. Richards, Mr. and Mrs. VV. A. Dent. The committee-in-charge deserv- es great credit for the splendid suc- cess of the evening. The Commit- tee: Chairman-Harold VanHorne. Decoration-Olive McGrath. Entertainment-Lloyd Hallam. Programme-St. Clair Parsons. Refreshment-Edna Cobban. THE SIGNALLERS This year a departure was made from the custom of previous years, in that the signalling squad was composed entirely of certified sig- nallers. Each member is the owner of an Elementary Semaphore Sig- nalling Certificate which was ob- tained some time ago as a result of the examination held in Sarnia by Captain XYeeks, District Signalling Officer. The result of the training received was shown on inspection day, when the boys were compli- mented on their appearance and general efficiency by Colonel Gilles- pie, the inspecting officer. The officers in charge of this sec- tion this year were Lieutenant Scott and Sergeant Arnott. The Official Report of General King received quite recently, gives the signalling section a first class rating, which is certainly a great tribute to the effi- ciency of the corps. BOYUS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION As usual at the first of the year, the boys of the school elected a very capable executive for this as- sociation. The officers are:- Honorary President-Mr. Camp- bell. President-Harold VanHorne. Yice-President-Howard Carter. Secretary-St. Clair Parsons. Treasurer-Lloyd Hallam. After the election of the executive form representatives were appoint- ed by the different forms of the school. Each form also appointed a curator for each of the various activities of the school namely, rug- by, swimming. basket-ball, cadet THE COLLECIATE 39 BOYS' ATHLETIC ASSUCI.-X'1'Il JN EXECUTIVE Left lo Right-Lloyd Hallgini, Harold Yanllorn, St. C.

The purposes of the Boys' Ath- letic .Xssociation are to foster the different athletics of the school and also to provide finances for the dif- ferent teams. FRESHETTEg' The seventh annual reception for the new members of the school giv- en lay the older students took place on Uctolner 10, 11714. Prior to the real initiation which was held in the evening, the freshettes were forced to wear all day, caps of green crepe paper as a reminder of their ex- treme youtli and tenderness. At 7.45 PBI. each freshette accom- panied by her senior. came to the girls' gymnasium. The affair was conducted with order and system. ,Xfter having lieen introduced, the freshettes were taken away from their protecting seniors to the boys' gymnasium where they were drawn RECEPTION up in groups of ten. lYhen they had lieen blindfolded. they sat in unite fear, awaiting the result. .X novel feature of the performance this year was that it was in the form of a trial, where each group of ten members was accused of some wrong-doing. Besides the accused the court consisted of a judge lHon. Teskeyl. court crier lllarion Hendersonl and two exe- cutioners llflrace Smith and .lane Clark J. The executioners played an important part in carrying out the sentence imposed for one of the marked offences-that of showing disrespect to the awe-inspiring sen- 40 THE CO LLEGIATE iors! Such a serious offence as this of course necessitated drastic treat- ment so the ten guilty freshetes came forward to be beheaded by -lane Clark, Grace Smith, and the shining silver hatchet. A second grave mistake of which one group of these tirst formers was accused was that of demanding from Mr. Grant an extra Latin class to be held on Saturday. To teach them that an act of this kind was not di- plomacy, a feather was fastened on each nose with molasses and these they were required to blow off. This, as may be guessed, pro- vided a great deal of amusement. Many other crimes were discussed and sentences pronounced on the guilty, but those mentioned were the most humorous. Following the trial, the glad cry of Foodl was heard and a mad rush was made for the girls' gym- nasium. 'With some difliculty this was stopped and a single line was formed in which each senior stood once more behind her freshette. They all filed around the girls' gym- nasium, past the door of the supply room where each girl was provided with refreshments. They then re- turned to the boys' gymnasium by the other door. A new method was adopted in the matter of serving the ice cream, and those on the refreshment committee found the neatly arranged packages of Artic Sweethearts much more convenient than the former method of serving ice cream sfrom the large cans. About eleven P.M. the party broke up and the freshettes went home with mingled feelings of relief at having safely passed the terrors of initiation, and of pride at realizing that they were now, in truth, full- Hedged members of our school. RUGBY On Tuesday, Jan. 27, 19.25, the members of the Senior Rugby Team sat down to a sumptuous dinner at, the Riding Club. Among those present in addition to the members of the team were Coaches Ross Gray, and Beattie Jennings, Dr. A. N. Hayes, L. H. Richards of the Board of Education and Principal D. A. Cambell, B. Gray, XY. G. Coles and C. A. Keeber of the Staff. At the conclusion of the meal several toasts were preposed and fittingly replied to, with Principal Campbell acting as toast-master. Following the toasts Captain Ted Kennedy presented Coach Dolly Gray with a fountain pen, and Har- old Yanllorne gave Assistant Coach 1. BANQUET Son Jennings a pipe. After the presentation speeches were made by the guests, following which each member of the team gave a one- minute talk. At this stage it was considered advisable to elect a captain and a manager for he team of IQZSQ and as a result Lloyd Hallam was elect- ed captain and VValter Callum, man- ager. The prospects of next year's team were discussed and considered to be excellent. There was some discussion also as to who should be eligible for the school letter, but the matter was left over to be set- tled later by a committee consisting of the Student's Council and a re- presentative from each organization and team in the school. GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The C. A. A. Executive was elect- ed early in the school year and has been an aggressive and hard-work- ing body ever since. The main ex- ecutive was aided, this year, by cur- ators-that is, in each form four girls were elected to represent bas- ket-ball, baseball, hockey and swim- THE COLLEGIATE 41- GIRLS' ATHLETIC IQXIQCUTIYE Sitting llef! lu rightlf ,lennie XYise.

COLLEGIATE - THE GLEE CLUB The success, both from a financial and artistic viewpoint, with which the Glee Club met last year, in the production of Pinafore provided sufficient incentive for the presen- tation of a new operetta Zanie again under the instruction of Mr. Lawrence 'Martin. Much credit is due those who faithfully attended the meetings and gave generously of their time, in the interests of an or- ganization which comprises such a small' percentage of the student body. ,The executive wishes to ex- press their appreciation of the work done by Miss Nichol, Mr. Asbury, Mr. Dobbins, Mr. Durnford, Ralph Misner and all those who helped in any way. On the evenings of March 6 and 7, the play was presented, and at each performance the cast strove in every way to rival that of last year. Under the direction of Miss Nichol and Vivian Norwood, the stage was iitted to represent a typical gypsy camp, and again a drawing room in an English manor. The setting for Zanie is laid in the outskirts of Devonshire, Eng- land, and the characters are taken from an English family of nobility, and a band of gypsies which has just arrived in the neighborhood. Herbert Glenville fLawrence Mar- iinj has made the discovery of their arrival, and on learning that it is the same band which had camped there some months previously and among whom there was a very love- ly maiden, whose acquaintance he had made, he at once rushes home to tell his sister Stella QMargaret Mcfformickj. She is very indig- nant at first but at last is persuaded to go to the gypsy camp to see Zanie CDorothy Frenchj and the other gypsies. On arrival at the camp, the gyp- sies are gathered around the camp- fire singing, Stella sees at once that Zanie is no gypsy and points out to Herbert that she does not resemble any one of them. On seeing them, Zanie approaches and sings, Ye are welcome friends, in such a charming voice and manner as to arouse Stella's instant admiration. Farral QI-larold VanHornej the lead- er of the gypsies, persuades Herbert, on the side, to run away from home and join them. This appeals to Her- bert and when he has seen Stella safely home, having extracted from her a promise of secrecy, he returns to the gypsy camp. A few days later while Stella and the elder sister Irene QVivian Nor- woodj are entertaining a few friends, Emily QMary Wileyj at the suggestion of Florence QDorothy Youngj sings Think of the Absent One. Sir Henry Glenville QAllan Wfadsworthj who has joined the girls that he might enjoy the music, is moved by the words since it re- calls to his mind a very singular occurence, much in keeping with the song. He tells them that Mr. Ringgold QMr. Asburyj an Ameri- can, whose daughter was stolen from him when a child, has just ar- rived in England, with hope of find- ing her among the gypsies. More- over, the words have played upon Stella's emotions, and when she hears her father's story, she burst into tears and reveals her secret to him. Although severely reprimand- ed by Irene, she finds Sir Henry sympathetic. He prepares at once, however, to follow his son. Back in the camp, the gypsies have retired with the exception of Hepsichore QCatherine Sternej a fortune-teller and the pretended mother of Zanie. She has, by witch- craft foretold that, on the morrow Zanie is to be crowned Queen. As she sings While the burning em- bers glow, and stirs into the caul- dron, magic potions, the whole scene takes on a wierd and gloomy atmos- phere. Bnt when Zanie has gone to rest, a most romantic effect is pro- duced by Herbert, who, keeping vi- gil, sings the sad sweet melody Sleep on thou art happy. lnto the midst of the merrymak- ing on the following day, While the THE COl..LE:GIATE 43 GLEE CLUB Sitting tleft In rightlfxliss Jones, Mr, Asbury, llorolliy French Ildresidentl, Hgr-'ld YanH1g.rnQ, Bliss Harris.

Almost immediately the llesiegers are upon them, and demand the two children whom they are seeking. On seeing Zanie, Mr. Ringgold is convinced that she is his long lost daughter, whereupon he calls to his wife who is waiting at a short dis- tance. Mrs. Ringgold 1gXnna Boy- ingtonj comes forward singing the cradle song with which she used to sing her child to sleep. During the whole song Zanie seems to be in a daze, and then, gradually, her mem- ory brings it all back to her. While the Ringgolds are being congratulated by their friends on the restoration of their daughter, Dora, and llerbert has received his father's forgiveness, Stella comes in with her little I told you so to her brother. .Xt this time Dora and llerbert decide they cannot be part- ed, and since there seems to be no possible objection, the parents con- sent to their marriage, which, in the fact that the liinggolds View of have decided to sail for America on the following day, must take place almost at once. ln the last scene the bridal pair have entered to receive the con- gratulations of the assembled com- pany, and the blessing of their par- ents. Although saddened by the thought of parting, the friends hide their grief and bid them Bon Yoy- age, with cheerful countenanees. .lm 4 :I ui, A 17.5. - fix , ,M . .Q..u,Lg ,QV V-- 7'F ,'f4 ., -.4f w,gM .- ..

The tirst round was held in the auditorium of the Sarnia Collegiate Institute and Technical School, on the evening of Feb.13, 1925. The judges were Professors Allen and Collins, of the University of XVest- ern Ontario, and Professor Clark of the London Normal School. Helen Donald won the girls' contest by default, her subject being 'fPhysical Education. Cameron Corrigan, of Strathroy, speaking on Heroes of Dur Polar Expeditions was ad- judged the best of the boy orators. Harold YanHorne, representing the school, dealt very ably with his sub- ject Peace Having been eliminated in the boys' contest, the school pinned its hopes on the forensic abilities of Helen Donald, but at London, on Friday evening, February 27, she was defeated by a more experienced rival, Miss Ruth Lawton, of London South. In the debating field, the school has, to date, been more successful. The scene of the first battle was in the auditorium of the VValkerville Collegiate Institute on Saturday evening, January 24th. Howard Stuart and Heber Nethery, both of 4B, debating on the affirmative side of the proposition, That the gov- ernment is more democratic than that of the United States, met two boys of the NValkerville school. The Sarnia boys won, establishing all their points but 0116. Much interest was taken in the next round of the debate, as both the girls' team and the boys' team took part, and the debate was held at home. In both the cases the vis- iting teams had the choice of sub- ject and side, yet the laurels went to the Sarnia debators. Marian Henderson and Gwen Mc- Kay, both of 4A represented the school in the girls' contest defeat- ing Misses M. Neilson and M. Bush- field of Strathroy. The Sarnia girls had the affirmative side of the de- bate, Resolvedg that Canadian Trade should be developed within the Empire, rather than with foreign countries. In the boys' debate, the London team, composed of Paddy Screaton and Bill Mills, lost the decision to the school team, Jack Holton and Jude XVarwick, the subject being, Resolved, that Canada offers more advantage to the imigrant settler than does the United States. The London team took the affirmative side. Bill Mills, of the visiting team, brought out some interesting data in regard to living conditions in the American cities. Both teams are hoping for success in the final contests, eager to add to the decoration of the cavernous cabinet on the main stairway.

SKATING RINKS BN THE CAMPUS Early in the season. through the generosity of the members of the Luncheon Club of the Chamber of Commerce, a large open air skating rink was made ready for use on the west side of the campus. This soon became the mecca for hun- dreds of skaters. Adequate lighting was installed for night skating. and dressing rooms and check rooms were plac- ed at the disposal of the skaters. The rinks remained open unil ten thirty each night. Certain hours each afternoon were set aside for the practice of our hockey teams and no doubt they owe much of their eifectiveness and success to these daily practices. ln order to help defray expenses of the rink, carnivals were held in which hundreds of people took part and to music furnished by the Cit- izen's band, weird and fantastic creatures glided about on the ice. Prizes were given for fancy dress and figure skating. Tags were sold to aid the financing of the rink. Much praise is due to the Luncheon Club for the way skating was su- pervised and the ice kept in such splendid condition. tllfillllllllllfllillllllllllllylmllnliH5, 5 'fa 3 4 A!

The government of the Collegiate in the year 1914.-of the foundation of the school the 63rd-was substantially the same as the present admin- istration. The principle bodies were the Board of Education and the Faculty. 2. THE BOARD. XVas, as now. a group of men elected by our revered parents and their neighbours. Sarnia has been fortunate in the personnel of the Board. 3. THE FACULTY. In 1914 was composed of eleven members, varying from despots to democrats. At the head of this august body we iind the Principal, who at this time also occupied the Ministry of Mathematics. 4 ARTHURI. Wlas of the House of Overholt. Familiarly known to his loyal sub- jects as Ovie, he made his presence felt, particularly to those unfortunate malefactors summoned to the tribunal in sumptuous sanctorum officially known as the OHicef' 5. D. M. GRANT. ' Minister of Classics, was an important member of the Faculty. He was wont to order some students to go to the country and dig post-holes, but as far as is known these sentences were never carried out. 6. THE COLLEGIATEY' W'as first issued at Christmas time, 1914. It was announced that prominent alumni would write an article for each issue. 7. THE FIRST RUGBY BANQUET. lVas held on December II, IQI4, in the Colonial Hotel. Each player was presented with tive dollars by Hon. XY. J. Hanna. 8. THE GREAT XVAR. Had already affected the school in 1915. The honour roll in April carried 125 names. In this year Dolly Gray was captain of the basket- ball team and Lou Phippen of the Rugby team. The brothers Paterson and Stew Henderson were prominent students. Doug Bell was Lit. president and Dave Stokes was secretary. Dave and his wheel-chair were well-known on the campus. 9. By Christmas of 1917, eight students had been killed in France. Bob McDougal was Lit. president. He and Doug. Bell went to the Board to 48 THE. COLLEGIATE obtain permission for an At Home in the Assembly Hall. Although pemission was refused the dance was held i11 the City Hall. IO. CLARENCE II.. OF THE HOUSE OF BRONVN. Succeeded Arthur Overholt in the autumn of 1918. Miss Harris, Miss Gordon and Miss Burke arrived at this time also. Miss Gordon, while not here long, became well known. Miss Harris you all know. No words of your historian could add to her popularity. She has firmly en- trenched herself in our hearts. 11. THE FAMOUS VICTORY. In this year an event of great portent took place, a victory was won, and a precedent established. Up to this time dancing had not been per- mitted in the school. A petition was circulated, 250 names were secured and the petition was presented to the board by Ed. McCobb, Elgin Turnbull and Harold Slater. They, along with Dr. Hayes, Rev. Mr. Hall, Mr. Good- ison and Mr. J. B. lYilliams, of the Board, should never be forgotten. 12. In 1918 the new collegiate and technical school was first mentioned. The faculty consisted of Mr. Brown, Mr. Grant, Mr. Dent, Miss Cruick- shanks, Miss Harris, Miss Story, Miss L. Campbell, Miss M. Campbell, Mr. Runnings, Misses Gordon and Burke. 9 13. MISS C-LADYS STORY. Minister of English, deserves more than a word of praise. Her name might littingly be engraved on a permanent tablet in the hall of the school. lYe owe her a debt we will never be able to repay, for the way i11 which she fostered the school spirit of the S.C.I. 14. DAVID V. CORCORAN. 9 No review of life at the old school would be complete without mention of Davy Reporting students' misdemeanours was not to be thought of by him and he enjoyed a unique popularity with both staff and pupils. It was one of the things most regretted by the student body that Davy was unable to come to the new building. 15. The year 1919 brought to the school the three Carter Scholarships for Lambton County. Lillian Fuller was president of the G.A.A. and Bob McDougall of the B.A.A. Ed. Ferguson was captain of the rugby team. The rugby championship was lost to Hamilton by 2 points. 16. In the year 1920 the staff was increased to twelve members. Miss Nichol took the ministry of Art in this year. Hardy Hill was an editor on the magazine staff and president of the Lit. Other students prominent in this year were Mary McGeachy, Mina Knowles, Peg Deans, Margaret Dawson, Lillian Fuller, Keith Ulatson, Ted Newton, Carl Manore, Gordon Carr and Poke McGibbon. Florence Buckindail made her debut in S.C.I. athletics. IQZO was the championship year. The rugby team, defeating De La Salle 9-S, won the O.R.F.U. inter-scholastic championship. Both junior and Senior track teams won the trophies at the London meet. For the sixth successive year the three Carter Scholarships came to Sarnia. 17. 19.21-22-By defeating U.T.S 15-5, the school won the inter-scholastic rugby championship again. XValter Potter was president of the Literary Society and Ted Newton was editor of the Collegiate. Bill Donohue and Florence Buckindail were presidents of the Athletic Associations. At this time the XX'.O.S.S.A. is first mentioned in the magazine. Prominent among the student body we note the names of Jean Conn, Bernice Knowles, Helen Saurwein, Ross Simpson, K. Clark, Cliff Carter, Ed. I-lanna, Geo. Simpson, THE COLLEGIATE 49 -Tack Richardson and Eddie Robinson. The Girls' BB. team XVon the XVossa Championship. 18. 192.2-23-This year saw the opening of the new school and the ac- cession of a new principal, Mr. D. A. Campbell. Mr. Campbell's decision on any matter is startingly direct, and abrupt, but he is always ready and willing to explain. This attitude has won the respect and admiration of faculty and students alike. It is under his leadership that the huge in- stitution, S.C.f. and T.S., runs so smoothly. Under the leadership of Jack Richardson the rugby team went forward to another championship. The Senior and Alunior Track Trophies returned to the school this year. Hibert Corey was Lit. president. The Athletic Associations were under the leader- ship of Leila Fraser and 'lack Richardson. I.

N. HAYES Our school has lost a friend and our board of education its chairman. For fifteen years Dr. Hayes has been one of the most effective members of that hoard, and few men have supported our every interest with such unflagging energy. The doctor was a graduate of XVestern University, London. A gold medalist of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, and a post-graduate of McGill University. Though he ardently encouraged any movement for the improvement of education. he naturally watched with espec- ial keenness the growth of physical education. Every athlete was certain of this man's deep personal interest and of his hnancial assistance. Our students, academic, and athletic, mourn the death of this benefactor. 1 5 N 12 la I4 16 18 20 22 24 26 27 ZR 311 32 33 13 1 3 4 5 11 7 H 'n 111 ll Ii 17 111 311 .ZI 2 Z 72 x 22 221 F 1' 11 1 AS 21 1 T e' 1 1 1 1 11 . is 1 1 12- 21 2 1 2 11-51 ,wee E' 2 , 1,2 2, I ir: 'iz ' I3 ' l H ' 1'fF :7'i 1 1 1 1 JM! 1 12 2 K 12g11 1 11-1 -, 2 22 - , 1 2 ,,, .2 2- 222 22 2 11.

K . - , , From the Cliquot waterfall north- ward for half a mile the Matta- gami river swirls between sheer walls of rock. Beyond that the left bank still continues a stern iron- bound rampart pitted by the fierce currents that gnaw and lash its base. The right bank, however, slowly relents until it sinks into a low jagged parapet which at last drops abruptly down to a strip of smooth white sand that borders the river for some two hundred yards. Surging up around it the pines close in to the very brink of the rushing water. At the edge of the escapement overhanging the tiny beach. a group of huge boulders balance perilously. Their exposed sides are concave scarred with the hieroglyphics of the north wind. Almost in the centre of the pile a gigantic cone of red granite towers above its less- er neighbours. The apex of the cone is gone, leaving a Hat surface some four feet in diameter. On the leeward side ten rough steps have been carved out, leading to a Hag- stoned path that curves down the slope, vanishing at last in the thick undergrowth. The path is a strange incongru- ous thing in that untrodden wilder- ness: assuredly man-made though when or by whom even the Indians cannot tell. Those who dare to tra- vel the rugged trails along the Mataganii call it the altar of Mani- tou. lt seems indeed like a huge pulpit. fashioned by some vanished god of the wilderness, from which he held his services with the mut- tering river for his choir, the sigh- ing pines his congregation. The sun had dropped below the tops of the tallest trees, leaving in its wake a mellow-golden radiance that slowly retreated as the shadows crept up from the north and east. From behind the granite spur a thin spiral of smoke arose. Twilight twinkled through the interstices of the stones. ln the leeward shelter of the rocks, Dick Cleve, vagabond-pros- pector, and adventurer. lonnged be- fore a blazing camp-tire, gazing meditatively up at the granite crag against which he leaned. Beside him stood his ritle, gleaming dully as the flames played over it. lt was the only thing he carried. For Cleve was travelling light and fast, 56 Tl-IE CO LLEGIATE hoping to reach Nome before the boat left for Seattle. He would never come back to the north, he told himself. There .was nothing left for him, now that all hope of Finding Larry MacTavish had died. A Hame licked out and touched his tattered boot. XVith a muttered oath he sprang to his feet, scatter- ing the burning embers with a vic- ious kick.As the light flared up, his eyes rested wonderingly upon the crumbling stair-way climbing up the face of the rock. From the top of the pinacle Cleve surveyed the broad lands beneath, misty purple in twilight. Over the cliff wall on the opposite side of the water a full moon was rising, silver- ing the path of the river as it writh- ed northward: northward to the twisted stunted forests and tundras of the barren lands. At his feet the narrow strip of sand gleamed white- ly like an old scar. The moonlight danced weirdly among the stones, pockmarked by the wrath of count- less blizzards. Blizzards! lYhat bitter memor- ies the thought awoke. It had been almost tive years now, since the day Larry had vanished into that shriek- maelstrom of wind and sleet. As long as life lasted Cleve would re- member that last glimpse of him, standing upon the ridge above the village of Minak Porya the Esqui- maux, half-concealed by the driving snow, one arm raised in farewell and a smile on his lips. Then he had gone ...... And the passing years brought no word. Larry had been assistant factor at L'Amable that season. 'Why, no one knew. Certainly it was not to learn the fur-trade, for his utter carelessness and indifference in that direction daily drove the grizzled factor, Sandy MacGregor, into ec- stacies of rage. Had it been any- one else he would have been sent out with the first mail-sled. But there were whispers that Larry's father had been a power in the coun- cils of the Hudson's Bay. So Mac- Gregor governed his actions accord- ingly, though at times his tongue broke all bounds. The only apparent interest Larry took in the business of the post was at the periodical visits of the Indian trappers. Time after time he drag- ged the suspicious redmen away from a trading conference and plied them with questions while Mac- Gregor gnawed his finger-tips and muttered furiously to Cleve, his ne- phew, concerning the intelligence of headquarters in picking assist- ants. The post had been desperately lonely that winter. Even the mail- carrier, who was their main link with outside world, had failed to pierce the barrage of storms that swept unceasingly out of the bar- rens. Then it was Larry's cheery personality that brightened the deadly monotony. Night after night as the wind moaned around the' creaking cabin, they huddled close to the huge glowing stone while McTavish poured out tales of the cities of the east. It had seemed like another world to Cleve. Each story vivid with Larry's inimitable wit and description strengthened his already growing desire to leave the north. But when he mentioned it, his uncle had laughed. Leave the north? Leave the post where you will factor some day? No, No! You are crazy Dick lad. So Dick had subsided, outwardly at least. Yet each night after Mac- Gregor had stumbled off to bed, he and Larry discussed his future ca- reer in the east. It had come to be an accepted fact with them. Often too they spoke of other things, threatened Indian uprisings, new discoveries to westward, half forgotten legends of the redmen. Cleve found himself, in his turn, un- rolling before his enthralled listener the vibrant romanc-e of the land he had known since childhood. Tales of supreme heroism he related, and of base cowardice, mingled with the hiss of swift sleigh runners over the ice, the wailing shriek of the winds, the howl of the white wolves glid- THE. COLL EGIATE 57 ing shadowlike over whiter snow, the whining complaint of weary sled dogs, the hum of the fly hordes of summer, the silver voice of rivers running free, the sighing of a mil- lion pines in the twilight breeze. As their mutual liking slowly deepened into a fast friendship, Dick ventured to question McTavish con- cerning his presence in the north, the object behind his peculiar con- duct toward the red trappers. You will know soon enough Dicky, he replied one night after Cleve had been unusually inquisitive. But wait, I might just as well tell you now. You will have to know sometime. So while the wind moaned with the voices of a thousand fiends and the sleet beat in fury against the window-panes, he began to speak. You know, Dicky, although dad left the North almost ten years prior to his death, he used to be pretty well known around here in the ear- ly days. For almost twenty years he just about dictated the Hudson's Bay trade policies all the way from Superior to the Pacific. Every one knew and liked Donnie McTavish, for he was a bluff good-natured sort though perfectly capable of seeing that he was not imposed upon. Of course in his position he had to lis- ten to all sorts of complaints and his unerring judgment in picking out those who really deserved help gain- ed him a bit of a reputation. Many times during his career dying lips whispered secrets, shaking fingers placed documents in his hands that would have left the outside world gasping with amazed incredulity had the contents become known. He had quite a collection when he resigned from the company, given him by broken men toward whom only the bitter cruelty of the arctic witch, had been manifested. He kept them all tucked away in our old library in Montreal, never attempting to make use of the in- formation they contained or letting anyone outside the family know of their existence. I was only fourteen when we moved to Boston. The house in Montreal was shut up, and it was not until last year that I remember- ed the papers stored away in the library. Everyone of my relatives ridiculed the idea that there was an atom of truth in the fantastic tales, and ridiculed me still more when I announced my intention of going to Montreal to look them up. How- ever I did not let them discourage me for I have always thought that the most unbelievable things could become stark reality in the north land. In the end the library yielded the story of an adventure that far exceeded the wildest ideas I had ever entertained. It seems that the chap, whoever he was, that experienced it, had wandered away from a whaling schooner frozen in somewhere a- long the Arctic coast. He had lost all sense of direction and took a low range of hills far inland for the ice ridge piled up along the shore. Night had almost fallen when he reached his objective and found that he had been mistaken. It was too late to retrace his steps by that timeg he was so nearly exhausted that one direction seemed as good as another anyway so he stumbled on until he discovered a pass in the hills. On the other side he came upon the head waters of a great river flowing southward. That night he slept in a cave. The next morning he began to follow the steep rocky bank of the river. About three miles further on he climbed a high ridge and found him- self looking down into a tiny valley. At one end stood a group of stone cabins arranged in a rough circle with a fire burning in the central space. In front of the largest build- ing a group of fur-clad figures were kneeling before a kind of altar. He could not remember how he man- aged to scramble down that moun- tain slope. But he did it somehow. At the bottom he began to run screaming crazily to attract atten- tion. As he came nearer he saw a small iron-bound box resting on top of the altar. He saw something 58 THE COLLEGIATE else too. something that staggered his already wavering senses. For the people, though clad in the fur garb of the Esquimaux, were white. Coupled with his exhaustion, it made him think he was seeing things. and when they gathered a- round him and began to jabber ex- citedly, he knew that he must be. For being fairly well educated, he realizedithat they were speaking a dialect of the English used in the days of Elizabeth. He must have fainted about that time because he could not remember anything else that happened. Two days later he regained con- sciousness in one of the stone huts. The strange people were extremely kind to him. In less than a week he was on his feet again. In his wandering around the village he noticed many of the inhabitants wearing long strings of rough, dull looking pebbles. As every question he asked concerning them met with stony silence, his curiosity naturally became intense. One day quite by accident he saw the man who called himself chief, spill some glittering things upon the ground. Closer in- spection revealed them to be the same dull pebbles, but two sides had been roughly cut and polished. After they learned of his discovery his hosts became quite truculent. So one night he stole a sled, all the food he could lay his hands on and started southward. He was dying when he reached the post at Du- quesne. Dad happened to be there. Knowing the reputation of old Don- nie lXIcTavish, he told him every- thing' and dad wrote it carefully down. The chap said he believed those stones were diamonds, Dicky. He said too that the box he had seen upon the altar contained a roll of parchment that probably explained the origin of the tribe. Think what it would mean if someone could only get a glimpse of it! XYell that is his story as he told it that night back there at Du- quesne. Perhaps he was lying. Most likely there is some truth in it. Dying men do not imagine things like that. At any rate' I am going to try to find out if it is true. If those people exist, there must be a savage somewhere in the north who has seen some of them or heard- of their existence. At present I have a theory that is too impossibly fantastic to tell even you. The whole thing sounds so far fetched that I do not expect you to believe it anyway. It does seem a bit impossible, Cleve admitted. However no one knows what secrets the barren lands may hold. S0 far as the diamonds are concerned I think it is perfectly logical. I have often wondered why they were not found up here. They are such true gems of the northland, embodying the cold white sparkle of the ice and snow. The village inhabited by whites is the weak part of the story. So many of those tales have been brought out by ex- plorers. None of them ever a- mounted to anything. Nearly al- ways they turned out to have orig- inated with some renegade who had thrown in his lot with the natives. Some of the most northerly tribes are due at the post soon. If these storms ever let up, we may learn something from them. Finally the blizzards wore them- selves out and a hard bright sun sparkled over miles of deep-packed snow. With the calm came also Mi- nak Porya the Esquimaux and his band. McTavish watched as the lit- tle men stood by the long counter and unrolled their bundles of rare exquisite soft furs. Suddenly he started forward. The chieftain had just opened his pack. Between the folds of a dark seal-skin aitiny white stone lay glittering wickedly. Before Cleve grasped the portent of the occurence, Larry had scooped the stone up in one hand while with the other he propelled the protesting savage toward the privacy of the stock-room. Angered at the per- emptory manner in which he had been snatched away from his trade- talk, Minak at first attempted to THE COLLEIGIATE 59 profess complete ignorance concern- ing both the stone and its origin. But his determination quickly col- lapsed beneath Larry's storm of questions backed up by a reel of shiny copper wire which the assist- ant factor swung slowly to and fro before his covetous eyes. Yes, yes, he answered. He would tell all he knew, it was not much. Merely that a strange white man came each noon to his LMi- nak'sj village to trade for the things the Esquimaux brought in from L'An1able. Sometimes the visitor was accompanied by a lovely golden haired maiden. No, he was not lying, Minak protested as he saw the scepticism in Larry's eyes. He could prove his words. The previous winter an oomiak cruising in search of new sealing grounds had picked up a man adrift on the wreckage of a whaling schooner. The derelict had been in lXIinak's village when the strangers came, had seen the maiden, and im- pressed by her beauty had sketched her face. From the recesses of his voluminous parka Minak produced a folded slip of paper and spread it before Larry. lt had indeed been a master-hand that sketched that love- ly profile. McTavish momentarily wondered what tragic history lay behind the presence of such an art- ist on a dirty whaler in the Arctic seas. But the matter at hand was more pressing. He turned again to the Esqui- lnaux. Minak had, however, ap- parently exhausted all his informa- tion. He did not know where the strangers had come from, or who they were except that the man was not stupid like most white men. He was a true son of the Arctic, versed in the wisdom of the northland to a degree that even Minak himself had not attained. The stone? Yes, the stranger carried a pouch full of them. Some larger and not so bright as that one. He had given a handful to little Ookana, Minak's daughter, on his last visit. She had fastened them together with copper wire and bound them around her dark hair. The white man had liked Ookana, so had the golden-haired maid who ac- companied him. Perhaps they had told her something of themselves. If the so-curious trader would come back with Minak to his camp, he could question Ookana, might even by chance see the white strangers about whom he desired so urgently to learn. Larry waited to hear no more. TYith a bound he flung open the stockroom door and rushed into the trading hall where Cleve stood, vainly trying to calm the fuming MacGregor. lt has come at last, Dicky. old son, he said joyously. Look at this. He handed Cleve the sketch and explained rapidly. Get ready quickly, we are going back with Minak Porya to his vil- lage. Then, seeing the thunder- clouds gathering on lXlacGregor's brow he strode quickly out of the room, calling over his shoulders as he went, I will not keep you long. lYe shall probably be back in less than a week. So it happened, that scarcely an hour later, four dog-teams left the post headed northward toward the spot where the igloos of Minak Porya's tribe huddled close beside an ice-bound arm of the Arctic. Late the next day they struggled up the slope of an ancient glacial morrain. Far below they saw a frozen bay stretching away to a glistening barrier, which they knew must be the mighty ice wall flung up by the Arctic waves. From the opposite side of the bay, the smoke of an Esquimaux village ascended lazily through the crisp air. Larry exultantly believed that the end of the quest was almost within their grasp. Hut when they ques- tioned Ookana. the little lisquimaux maiden seemed utterly bewildered. Nor could she produce the baudeau of shining stones Minak had de- scribed. The chieftain tried to ex- plain by saying that Ookana had in a lit of rage thrown them into the sea. 60 THE CO LLEGIATE XYhen however, a week, two. three weeks passed without sign of the will-osthe-wisp strangers, Cleve be- came openly sceptical. Even a glance at the lovely face of the sketch failed to re-establish his con- Iidence. The Esquimaux was lying. he told Larry: had been lying all the while. Besides it was time they started back to L'Amable. VVith the rush of the trading season on, Sandy MacGregor would be desperately in need of their assistance. But Mc- Tavish, clinging stubbornly to his vision, would not go. It was on Thursday of the fourth week that Cleve announced his in- tention of starting southward alone. He did not like to desert Larry, yet duty to his aging uncle called him back to the post. The sooner he left the better. he thought, as he glanced at the lowering skies and listened to the ominous mutterings that growled across the Arctic seas. Late in the afternoon the wind began to blow. Throughout the night it moaned in ever-increasing fury. XYhen Cleve went out in the morning to harness his dogs, the sleety snow was whirling in great gusts across the bay. He could scarcely see for a hundred yards in any direction. Larry having accompanied him to the summit of the ridge, stood watching as he slipped swiftly away. Only once Cleve glanced back at the figure amid the whirling snows. An arm raised in farewell and he answered it. He knew he was do- ing right, yet there was a queer catch in his throat as, turning his face southward he fled before the storm. At the post winter passed, the north awoke to its brief period of summer. Yet Larry did not appear, or send word of his safety. Then uncertainty deepened into fear, and Cleve set out again for the distant Arctic village. Minak Porya was astounded. The white man? lYhy Minak did not know anything about him. He had left the village with the golden- haired strangers almost two moons ago. It was a little too much for Dick to believe. The' next day he was on his way to the nearest mounted po- lice headquarters. Yet though the red-coated riders questioned Minak rigidly and scoured the barrens for a thousand miles, nothing was found to suggest either Larry's existence or his death. After a time a new name was added to the northland's list of missing men. Since then the years had slipped by quickly. Old Sandy MacGregor had gone out with last winter's snow. A new factor reigned at L'Amable. Cleve himself had drifted from camp to camp, from post to post, had been in turn prospector, miner, trapper, gambler: had even worn for a time the red coat of the mounted. Every- where, in remote Indian village and far-Hung trading post, he had sought news of Larry McTavish . . . . . in vain. Now he was leaving for the south, alone. Five years ago he and Larry had planned to go together. Wlhile Cleve stood musing, the night breeze had begun to blow softly. The camp-fire beneath, at the foot of the crag had died away into a single glowing ember that winked up at him out of the dark- ness. lt seemed strangely like that glistening thing that had sparkled out of the dark sealskin folds back there at L'Amable. He turned his eyes quickly away. Suddenly from the swampy Hats up river the thundering bellow of a bull moose, disturbed at his feeding, rose above the surging roar of the Hood. Probably wolves disturbing him! Cleve decided. Then he a- bruptly banished that thought and stared intently. A long dark object came floating down the silver-moon path on the water. A canoe, he saw as it slid nearer. But a canoe such as no red man had ever built. A square heavy thing it was, rather resembling the fire-hollowed dug- outs of the south seas than the graceful northern craft. Swiftly it THE COLLEGIATE 6l approached, at times whirling round and round in the treacherous eddies. VVith a sigh of regret Cleve realized that it would go over the falls. Then he held his breath with amaze- ment. For directly opposite the tiny beach some vagary of the snarling currents turned it shore- ward. A few moments it hung mo- tionless, undecided, then began bumping gently along the shelving beach. Cleve did not want to see more. Taking the steps in three bounds he raced down the flag-stoned path- way. Scarcely live minutes later he stood upon the sand, bending over the craft that had come drift- ing so mysteriously to him out of the night. . First he noticed that the interior was completely lined with soft deer skin, next that a little figure lay crumpled in the bow. A girl, with long golden hair, whose face bathed by the moonlight seemed to touch some hidden chord of memory. Then he saw something else that brought a startled cry to his lips. ln one clenched hand she grasped a crim- soned arrow-shaft 9 her leather tunic was saturated with blood. Gently with infinite care he lifted her out, the movement bringing a low moan from her lips. Thank heaven she is not dead at least, he thought. Then choosing each step carefully, he went up the path and laid her by the smoulder- ing camp fire. Gathering an arm- ful of wood from a supply he had cut earlier in the evening, he soon had a blaze that lighted the dark- est corners of the little plateau. As he straightened up from his atten- tions to the hre, he looked directly into a pair of bright eyes that were regarding him intently. Again the odd feeling of familiarity stole over him. Who--are-you. she asked in perfectly good English, but with a peculiar intonation that he could not place. Me? My name is Cleve, Dick Cleve, he replied. PN Clevel Winching with the ef- fort she sat up. Cleve! Dick Cleve! Then you--you know Larry, Larry McTavish. Larry! Oblivious to what she must be suf- fering, Cleve almost shook her in his anxiety and dawning hope. Larry McTavish? You know some- thing of him? Tell me, quickly. Carefully putting her hand inside her tunic she drew forth a leather bag and handed it to Cleve. It is Larry's, she said. He could not come, so-I-came-instead. It was early morning when I slip- ped down to the river. But they were watching. They watch al- ways. Andlyou see. She touch- ed the crimson patch on her shoul- der. Then, as Cleve bent forward in quick sympathy. No, it is nothing, merely a scratch. Read that first. Dick looked down at the object she had handed him 2 a leather pouch stamped with the trade-mark of the l-ludson's Bay. Suddenly he under- stood the haunting familiarity of her appearance. From an inside pocket he drew out the sketch Mi- nak Porya had brought to L'Amable so many years before. He had pre- served it carefullv, for in some in- explicable way it had seemed a link between himself and Larry. The countenance that smiled up at him from the paper was identical with the one gazing at him across the fire. The full import of the discovery made his senses reel. Wlith fever- ish haste he unfastened the strings that closed the mouth of the bag. From theiinterior he took out a little pouch, a tattered roll of manu- script and lastly some folded sheets of paper addressed to Dick Cleve in Larry's sprawling hand. Trembling with anticipation he opened them. Dicky, old son, he read. I won- der where you are now. The chances are one in ten million that you will ever see this letter even if Marya happens to get away. It is true, Dicky the story I told you there at L'Amable, every bit of it. The parchment will explain. And the 62 THE CO LLEGIATE. pouch if you ever see it, those are diamonds in it Dicky, every one. The place here is flooded with them. The people dig them out of a glacial morrain back of the village to use for ornaments. They have invent- ed a rough method of cutting and polishing them. The village, by the way, is on the bank of a river that Hows south- ward. From its size here, it must be several hundred miles long. llarya is going to try to get away in her canoe in the morning. Be- sides my letter, she is taking a few diamonds, and the parchment I have stolen from the altar-box. Queer, that I should feel so little interest in them now. If Marya gets through, see that she is taken care of, Dicky. She has been a good pal these five years. You know it seems hideously unreal to be living here, so comparatively near civil- ization, and yet as hopelessly re- moved as if I were living in another age. And these people really are of another age Dicky. They belong away back in the mediaeval times. Elizabeth's old sea captains will hail them as brothers when they pass from this earth. I suppose my disappearance caus- ed you a great deal of anxiety. But I could not help it. The chap who came to Minak's village is the chief nf this people. I little realized when I went with him that it was to be forever. Hut they are stubbornly deter- mined that no one shall reveal their secret to the world, and will not let me go. I fear that they will show little mercy when they discover Marya is gone and that I' have stol- en their parchment. It is their only link with the past. They worship 1t. Forgive me, Dickyg if should you ever receive this letter it may seem somewhat disjointed. But my thoughts are chaotic, and, Marya is waiting. Goodbye, Dicky, old sonifor always. Slowly Cleve stood up crushing the little skin pouch beneath his heel. Bitterly he crumpled the pa- pers and flung them into the dark- ness. Stooping he was about to hurl the parchment after them, when he stopped. The heat had caused it to partly unroll and a sin- gle sentence at the bottom caught his eyes. VVith difficulty he deci- phered the queer characters that were yet oddly familiar. Now after having safely reach- ed land, we have builded ourselves a home upon the banks of a great river, and being in fairly comfort- able circumstances here we shall re- main until the ships of Elizabeth again seek the China passage. Writ- ten in this year of our lord-i Henry Hudson. Yet Cleve felt no thrill at the dis- covery that would once have meant so much to him, nor did he notice the scintillating gems that spilled from the split seams of the pouch. He was gazing with dazed in- credulous eyes into the past, at a lithe fur-clad figure standing upon a ridge who smiled, waved farewell and wasgone. -'Y - - i-e -f' -'- - 1 FASHIONABLE TARDINESS By Agnes Wcir, V.

The effect was almost spectacular, but would have been entirely lost had they arrived at live minutes before eleven in- stead of fifteen minutes after the hour.

Marjorie invited us to tea on XVednesday at half past four.

O ' ' W ' X PEACE By Ilnruld l'a1zHur1n', V. K - .- if --, - Y . Peace on earth, good-will to- ward man -this is the ideal for which mankind has been striving to realize ever since time began. Mil- lions of lives lost on the battlefields, thousands of hearts torn by loss of dear ones, unaccountable destruc- tion and untold suffering,-these are a few of the sacrifices which have been offered up as a means by which this ideal might change to a reality. And what is the resultg have we ar- rived at any satisfactory conclus- ion? No, we are still seeking this ever-elusive peace. Let us begin right at the begin- ning and frankly ask ourselves, if peace is desirable, in what sense it really is desired. The mind instinc- tively associates the word with a perfect state: amid the cares and turmoils of this world men long for the peace of heaven: we believe that of our dead that they are living and THE COLLEGIATE WQOILLEN MILLS STORE Men,S and Boys' FURNISHINGS CLOTHING S, GLQVES Fine and Heavy QUAL TIES QS: HATS and CAPS VAL UN DERWEAR Summer, Autumn and Winter Weights NEWTGN BROS.

Yet we have no experience of a life that is not a balance of forces, that is not based on contention and atagonism and we know of few joys comparable to that of the struggle against odds, in which, while we struggle, we still hope for victory. Are there then to be no further victories for us? Must we remain forever con- tent with the limited achievement of our brief life here? It seems im- probable: and except to those whom the world has wearied and over- borne, it must surely seem quite un- attractive, too. Indeed to ask for peace in this sense is perhaps not very different from asking for ex- tinction. For if we remove from life all thought of the atagonist to be faced and vanquished, it has no further call for effort, and there re- mains for our consolation, nothing but a philosophical abstraction. Such too often is the heavenly peace to which we are asked to look forward: and is not our conception of peace on earth taken frequently on the same mould? Is it not main- ly a negative peace 3 absense of rival- ries: effacement of differences, fus- ion of particularities and individual- ities in a vague, general good? Peace more or less after that pat- tern has been attained over large portions of the earth's surface at various periods of history. They are not the periods to which we look for inspiration. Formative periods in the history of our race, have, alas! been associated with violence and bloodshed: only too often in the past have the leaders of civilization taken one another by the throat, just as the nations of Europe are still inclined to do. The world wants peace. But it wants a settled peace, a peace that will insure the world against being once more plunged into war at the will of a group of autocratic and ambitious statesmen, eager for world power. There is no need to tell us the horrors of war. VVe know them. XYe knew something of them before the Great VVar began. The past ten years have brought home to all of us still more what war really means. There is not a parish in England without grieving mothers and mourning wives, left alone through the deaths of their sons or husbands on the field. The personal loss, the class upheaval and the national waste that this war has brought us need no telling. But just because we are appalled by the tremendous losses and suf- ferings of war and of the waste of life of our picked young manhood, we are the more resolved to go on until we have ended the menace to the world that made war such as this possible. Millions of our country- men voluntarily took up arms. They went to war to end war. They went to war for justice and public right, which they were re- solved to maintain. A half-way victory, and incon- clusive peace, a settlement which settles nothing, a patched-up truce under which the nations have breathing time to re-equip them- selves for fresh conflict on a still more terrible scale-these are the crowning disaster of the majority of wars. The barrier of suspicion and mistrust between nations re- mains greater then ever. Strife does not end: it goes on. War is a terrible thing, yet even terrible things may have their bet- ter side. How can we so alter our organization of society as to make the events of the past few years yield their greatest good? The foundation for betterment has been laid I believe when I say that the people must be qualified and equip- ped by better education to take their share in the work of the govern- ment. The war has helped to teach us one thing in particular, the safety of the world depends largely upon the people as a whole, doing their part in the work of the government! In former generations government was the work of a small class espec- ially trained for it. The masses of people were unqualified because they THE CO LL EGIATE. 65 were insufficiently educated. In re- cent years the conditions have some- what changed, but the change must go much further. Does anyone think that had the decision for war rested with the German people the masses of Germany would in those early days have voted for it? I am aware that when passion was kin- dled, the German nation became for a time enthusiastic for war. But had the original decision for war or peace rested with the masses of the people, there would have been no war. The war was planned and de- liberately brought about by a com- paratively small body of German statesmen. People of all classes must share more and more in the public work of their communities and of the nation. This means two things- education to qualify them for such work and systematic efforts to make them realize the importance of doing their duty by taking their part in public affairs. During the years preceding the Great XVar statesmen, jurists and economists had been teaching us to believe that peace had been for a hundred years organized as it had never been organized in the world's history. The principle of arbitra- tion was becoming more widely ac- cepted. It was inconceivable that in this era of civilization reasonable, responsible statemen could find no other way of settling their disputes or satisfy their ambitions except by the barbarous folly of setting their people to kill one another and then finding they have settled nothing. True, armaments and weapons of war were being devised on a scale and then with an ingenuity that made the warfare of even thirty years ago look childish, but this very scale and the new methods of warfare would only convince states- men that a war between great na- tions must be reduced to a suicidal deadlock. The real danger of the situation as we now look back, lies in the temptation to become cynical and therefore, superficial in our judg- ment: to decide that after all ar- bitration can never do more than settle petty legal points about which no one would dream of going to war: that our league of nations is an immense pretention, but it does not touch realities: that Christian- ity has nothing to do in practice with international relations, and Christian Vcommunions would be wise not to make pronouncements upon complicated problems with which they have no businessg in other words that armed alliances are the only secure policy and we must resign ourselves to our destiny of being by nature warring an- imals. Such a line of thought is not superficial and not untrue only if we are prepared to design the whole of human life and society upon a strictly materialistic basis. The only way in which the ineffic- iency of judicial machinery can be ultimately made good is by using the means we have of anticipating the causes of war, the misunder- standings, the suspicions, the per- verted ambitions, the selfishness, the unscrupulousness which both in national and international society lead to strife and the devasting ca- tastrophe of war. This manifestily is the work which bodies and individuals professing the religion of Christ, are called upon to do. The outbreak of War in 1914. not a sudden impulse, but the cul- mination of a process, did declare how conspicuously Christian bodies had failed to do their work. But we naturally go on to ask: ln what precisely has their failure consisted? How can they best safe- guard against failure in the future? The answers which might be given are numerous. but one practical an- swer l am prepared to make: they had never organized themselves for this particular task, there was no concerted endeavor to make the in- fiuence of Christian motive, of good- will, of working for God's purpose of the unity of mankind in Christ truly effective. But can Christian bodies organize themselves for this task? 66 THE CO LL EGIATE The war has taught us that mod- ern warfare is not a11 affair between rulers and dynasties, relying upon a standing army, but is a struggle between peoples, i11 which every lllilll and woman becomes a bellig- erent: hut, further, in the modern. self-governing communities, the people themselves are responsible for their destiny. lYe declare that the people's will is decisive. All citizens are responsible and have to feel and exercise their responsibility for making and maintaining peace. XYhere could we Find a better ex- ample of the difference between an idea tl1at is still Hoating and o11e tl1at has been fixed and realized, than in the various associations of the word peace ? The thought of peace flows through our minds like water. clear and lucid-our ultimate blessing, the fuflllment of all desire. But peace in practice, the peace we are building up for the future. but for which we search the past in vain-how difficult are its approach- es. how contradictory., Few civil- ized people have thought war goody all Christian people have acknow- ledged peace on earth as their ideal! but they have generally pursued peace with the sword and when they have attained it, it has never meant more than a temporary predomin- ance of o11e indisputable power or a temporary balance between comped- itors. .-Xll tends to show that in the realm of conduct there is something in ourselves or in our surroundings that is rebellious to peace: why else should it be so pleasant to think of and so difhcult to obtain? Those of us who have been loudest in praise of peace and severest in de- nouncing militarism have openly advocated the employment of force when o11r own interests were con- cerned. Hut peace cannot be arranged in accordance with what we wish or desire: it depends on the whole tenor of our actions. Have we found, then what the principles of our conduct must be. if peace is to be secured? Or are we daily and hourly making demands upon the world which are exclusive, and which must at last bring us into collision with other men? Universal peace, in other words, cannot mean less than a world-wide organization based on a code which the nations will have to create by usage and consent. And that con- sent will be won only as it comes to be realized that national individual- ity is enhanced by mutual respect and that the common life of the race is enriched by national dif- ferences. If peace is to be truly desired it must come before us in the richest colours, bringing with it the whole of earth's good thingsg it must be the crown and completion of our activities, a positive and ad- ditional creation. To solve the many problems that will confront us we must stand a united nation. NVe cannot afford to have any sections of our people ig- norant when ignorance spells weak- ness. XVe cannot afford to have any section under-developed, for all our strength will be needed to cope with the various problems that will arise. It is essential that the old artificial barrier of class, and the principle that might is right should dis- appear. Fresh impulses are sweep- ing over the world. Fresh causes of unrest are arisingg there will be fresh perils to face. Knowledge, unity, justice and the co-operation of all classes will see us safely through. - In Leicester Square in London is a statue of the immortal Shakes- peare and on it is inscribed There is no darkness but ignorance. It is true. In ignorance lies our real danger, in knowledge is found the only sure road to permanent peace. THE COLLEGIATE 67 ' ' ' X LOVA ByJ.JlI, K - .-f -- --, f f ,.. lV11I f'1' nilw. Lova was cold-bitterly, unbear- ably coldg numb from his little blue ears to the tips of his sockless, frost- bitten toes in their stiff, unyielding sapogi boots made by llya, the vil- lage cobbler, from the hide of the last milch cowvof Lova's father, killed to furnish food for the hun- ger-torn stomachs of the Bibikoff family. Lova was cold-but not too cold to remember that he must keep plodding on, with the help of the saints if need be, though his usual resort was the Bogoroditchin her- self-God's Holy Mother. Thoughts of Marya a babe in arms, in the far off land of light, helped his stumps of feet carry his frail young body into the teeth of the cruel Syay- verr, the north wind. Not the dry, tingling, clear wind of the Kievan steppes, mind you, but the damp, piercing cold of the wind that sweeps the Ladogan lake before it reaches this unhappy government of Tver. Although Lova had not the faint- est idea of how far he had to travel, he knew his destination, have no fear of that. XYhere should he go but to the wondrous home of the kind-eyed baronyi whose picture hung in the schoolroom over the desk of the popa who taught Latin and Rhetoric on week days and on Sunday sang the Sacred Liturgy in the church of St. Basil the Great over the hill? Had not the popa called him Tsarya Slavnomi, the glorious Tsar-Slabich Smiritelyo, guardian of the weak? To whom else, then, should he go? NYonder not, reader, that this weak boy could plunge confidently into the night and storm, for such a burden as he had assumed was not lightly to be thrown down. He sought the liberty of the miserable rebels of Tver. Xl'hy had his so- wise father, and kind mother, and l' I-'E' EE' ' -1, 5 .1 - 5 il ' ,Y Il 'J X Y E ' , -. 5 1334292 ilzf FEP -v'?'E f7v ,Yf': ,'-3 if -,.- .sf ve ff ziiwit.g,e'e2:a':' .4 .wi y F .

XVhy had they call- ed curses down upon his head in front of the ikon of St. Nicholas over the cupboard at home? XYhy had they called to witness their hate, the black and fearful names of ancient gods, long since dead, yet still propitiated by the peasants? 'l'he popa could not lie- the dear old popa to whom he made his confession every Pasch-their 'llsar surely must be kind. He would show them. He himself would ,go to seek this Comforter of All, this father of Russ Pravoslavonoi. Orthodox Russia. So here he was. But even Hoghu-the good God himself-had not been able to carry 68 THE CO LLEGIATE his burden without anguishg indeed, had left it on the cross, and Lova saw, looming through the darkness, the rude shelter over the Troitska -the wayside Calvary. At the cross he too, would rest for a mo- ment before passing on. So here we will leave him, at the feet of the Cruciiied: praying there with the two Maryas and the Holy Yohan, with his small head drowsing, drow- sing, drooping, drooping onto his shoulders, while we go on to meet the droshky whose bells we hear on the road ahead, and discover whence it comes. II Even aided by the glow of the open fire, the light from the twelve wax tapers in the iron sconces over the mantle is scarcely sufficient to reveal the sole occupant of the room as he sits, in a far corner, with his boot-clad legs thrust out in front of him. This is no position of ease, nor even one of fatigue, for though he has passed a day such as would try any man, Prince Aleksei Iaroslaf is still wide awake, uncomfortably so. Sleep would be very pleasant, but how could he, the representative of Nicholas ll. in the Government of Tver, rest, after the day just ended. Even the business of the coal strike had been a difficult problem to solve, and then, to cap all, had come the beastly matter of these Socialists. 'Why could they not keep their own counsel, and not an- noy him and destroy the smooth routine of his office. True, they had not a great deal of surplus food-but what could one expect? The great God had made them mujhiks, and thus had shown plainly enough his intention that they should not be overfed. True, also, that coal had not been forth- coming on the day promised, but at same time that Boghu had made them peasants, he had made them Krestianskaya, Russian serfs, and had given them fathers and homes in the Government of Tver-suf1ic- ient assurance to any man of ordin- ary sanity that His omniscient plan had not been to have these miser- able dogs sweat their lives away in their huts. VVork-plenty of it, which was intended for such as they -would keep them warm enough. And then, how could he be held responsible for a more prompt set- tlement of the coal strike? Not a day-no, not a minute longer, could he have put oft the wolf-hunt that he had promised Count Protapoff. Protapoff had infiuence at court, more iniiuence than the ordinary bureaucrat ever guessed. But he, Iaroslaaf, was no fool. All these men to him were but as stepping stones to power, to things that were better imagined than spoken of, for truly it is said that walls have ears. NN'as he not of the blood of Iaros- laf, Prince of Novgorod the Great, son of Oleg, whose father Rurik the Northman, the Slavs had invited from the frozen wastes to rule them? He was of more ancient blood than the Romanoffs, who sat on the great jewelled throne in the Kremlin at Moscow. There, indeed. he himself should be sitting, and if red revolution should stalk the land, might he not ride to power on its flood? But enough of dreaming- just now he must care for smaller fish. Facts were facts, and a son of Roman was Tsar. Wfhile he ruled, it were wise to be his friend. He would show these opprobrious dogs of Tver why they should not spit at the mention of the name of the Em- peror of all the Russians. His Tatar Cossacks would tie more of them down. and under their lashes, the snow would on the morrow drink deeply of their low-born blood. The peasant Bibikoff, leader of the local union, and plainly the inciter of the revolt, would receive another flogging, and, if he survived that, Siberia would claim him. These dull-brained, stolid labourers would soon forget their torturer. VVhy, but one or two even knew his name, and one day they would welcome him as their deliverer. But, for then once, reinforcements THE CO LLEGIATE 69 were needed. The temper of the privilegens, the merchants, and even that of some of the younger clergy, was uncertain in times like this. Petersburg was a scant twenty versts away, and Nicholas he knew was in residence at the winter pal- ace. Happy thought! He would go himself, secure aid, lay himself at the Emperor's feet, and pledge his eternal fealty. Quick! Boris !-Why doesn't the pig hurry ?-Boris! Ah! There you are, duskenka.

A gift is perhaps not a necessary, but at least is a time honored and fitting introduction to a potentate. And such a gift this was! Lovals coming to court was hum- orous after all. But Aleksei did not even smile, far from it, for had he not brought the miserable brat to Petersburg to cause his own undo- ing?

Out of the fulness of his gracious heart he granted full pardon to all, hoping only for their good will in return. Bibikoff, president of the com- mune, was the first to kiss his stir- rup.

ASSEMBLY HALL By Annie Leslie, 4A. K - .-. -L --g- - . If you have never made an an- nouncement in the Auditorium of the Sarnia Collegiate Institute and Technical School afer the morning exercises, you have yet to endure the most exquisite of mental tor- tures. The night before you work far away into the wee sma' hours over a very flowery epistle that is the last word in conciseness. Then, taking a suitably dramatic position you deliver this oration to an aud- ience consisting of a piano, half a dozen chairs and a floor lamp. ll'hen this has been repeated till even you can think of no more ef- fective gestures or necessary in- flections, you small sister is dragged unwillingly from slumber to listen. She stands at one end of the house, you at the other and then the whole thing is repeated. Am I going too fast? Can you hear me distinctly? Is my voice too high and does it crack ? These are some of the ques- tions to which the poor, sleepy little one eagerly gives the desired an- swer. And when she breathes ad- miringly over some extraordinar- ily verbose remark, you laugh airily and remind her that its nothing, only an announcement, you know. Well do I remember my first ap- pearance on the platform of the Assembly Hall. All through the morning program I sat clinging des- perately to the arm of the seat and breathing noisly. Then the dreaded moment arrived and I walked stiff- ly up the aisle to the platform. The room whirled dizzily around a blur of faces and nervously I moistened my lips. There was a deadly hol- lowness at the pit of my stomach and a curious lightness in my head when hnally I began. After finish- ing the hrst two or three sentences I realized with horror that there had not been a sound. Accordingly I began again and was faintly aware 0 Tl-IE COLLEGIATE. 7I that every word of my careful pre- paration was lost.

I T I 'T' ' X GOING TO THE DENTIST K -A, ,A -,, Y Y , Thoughts of the appointment with the dentist are often more trying than the pain itself. Gruesome stories of the buzzer, and the long sharp, nerve wire, add to the sur- render of one's already shattered forces. The tedious wait in the room into which various odours of chemicals are wafted does not pre- pare one to enjoy the ordeal through which he is to pass. The great question in many minds today is, Do dentists try to increase their patients' suspense and fear? It would appear that the numerous treatments are intended to keep fearful visions and sounds constant- ly in one's mind. I still shudder over my first test of endurance. I was only about seven years of age when hrst plagu- ed with a toothache. 'With every assurance of the brevity of the ses- sion, and promises of a week's sup- ply of sweets, I consented to have my molars administered unto. From that hour all my faith in painless dentists was broken. I-Ie first pick- ed and pulled at the nerves and ask- ed if it hurt. Then he drilled into each recess for nearly fifteen min- utes, and boasted that he was nearly through. Not content with this he succeeded in forcing into my mouth cotton saturated with odd smelling, and poisonous tasting liquids. Hav- ing completed this, he repeated the process.. Imagine my relief when I tottered into the open air after bidding a hasty farewell to mv Hbenefactorf' ' Not long ago I entered the wait- ing room of a dentist's office and had my first self-taught lesson on human nature. Over in a corner near the window, sunk into a big morris chair was a typical old maid, nervously perusing the pages of the Judge in hopes of finding some article to distract her attention from the extraction which was soon to take place. Her composure was not bettered by groans issuing from the adjoining chamber. On a daven- port was seated a rather stout, elder- ly lady nursing a dog of some un- certain pedigree. Her sophisticated air was assumed by her pet, which sniffed at its surroundings, and the peculiar odour of chemicals. IVith hands clasped, sitting rigidly on a straight-backed chair was a girl with a drug-store complexion. Her eyes stared dreamily into space and a heavy sigh was frequently emitted from the depths of her soul. How important I thought it must be that dentists know how to treat cases of nervous prostration. . Only those who have been put to sleep by the dentist can sympathize with the soldiers gassed in the Great NVar. I have undergone this pain- less .operation once too often. NVith tense muscles I stepped into a chair.and allowed myself to be 72 THE COLLEGIATE wrapped in spotless white linen. A small 1nask was placed over 1ny nose and mouth. I fixed my attention on the clock, it was ten minutes to tive. My hands tightened their grip on the chair and I was sure that I could frustrate all attempts to send me into a state of obliviong but, a suffocating odour filled my lungs. Slowly I was sinking, the light grew dim, and the clock ceased its ticking. The light returned, I arose from the giddy depths, and Big Ben re- gistered ten minutes after five. My surroundings once more became familiar. On a table were placed three large teeth. With horror I felt inside my mouth, yes, they were my own. Somewhat dizzily I trip- ped my way homeward. With pride I showed my mother the vacuums and claimed a reward. -.f -- , YJ, -LY PHYSICAL By Helen K - .-- -- --Q - - . EDUCATION - Y 'J' 'it' ' N ,- 7. , '-'I ,' Y' , -.-- 7 Y- 7.- It seems to me that since ath- letics play such a prominent part in the life of each and every individ- ual, as they do at the present time, my subject can scarcely help but have a direct, personal appeal. Physical Education is the careful and well-balanced culture of your own bodily powers. To attain its object physical education must help the production and maintenance of health in body and mind. Recall how the Greeks of ancient times saw the necessity for efficient phys- ical training. Even their code was that every Greek citizen must have a strong body. In order to insure this, the children who were thought puny were at an early age exposed to death on the mountain side. On the other hand for the normal heal- thy child, gymnastics, marching and sham-fighting formed part of the compulsory training. The girls passed through a training like the youths though less severe. They too practised running, leaping and throwing the spear and discus. The state encouraged everyone to such exercises as it considered gymnastic education necessary to physical per- fection. Ever since, the fame of the splendid physique of the Greek ath- lete has descended. In the greater national games and especially those held at Olympia their system of physical development reached its highest standard. The competitors must be Greeks of good character and religious standing and of suf- ficient athletic training. When they had qualified as candidates they en- tered contests in running, leaping, discus-throwing, spear-h u r li n g , wrestling and boxing. Such train- ing developed their bodies to a mar- vellous extent as proved by the facts we have from history that the Greek sculptor found his best models a- mong the athletes. Although these Greeks long before the coming of Christ were aware of the national significance of a skillfully directed system of physical training, it was not until a comparatively recent date that we realized it importance. lVe, in our flourishing Dominion, with its many advantages of civil- ization were much slower to grasp our opportunities than were these virile Greeks. Though it must be admitted that in many cases the ex- isting facilities for the proper de- velopment of systematic physical culture are still inadequate, yet much progress has been made dur- ing the last twenty-five years. Let us compare the system of physical training in existence in our schools at the beginning of the 20th century, with what we have at the present time. Imagine that you are back in public school in the year IQO0. You are being taught a lesson in hy- giene and physiology, that lesson which comes but once a week. How you detest it! You are told about the ogre and health of your body THE CO LL EGIATE. '73 and given a long list of names, the parts of your body. However, you are taught nothing practical. It all appears as a jumble of knowledge to be memorized but not practically applied. As for calisthenics, or drill as it was then called, the teacher's interest and knowledge are alike slight. As a rule she only forces herself to give such a lesson perhaps once a month, in order to gain the inspector's approval of the monthly report. Since the only gymnasium is the aisles between the rows of the desks and the space at the front and rear of the room, you are forced to obey commands in that cramped area. Generally the whole lesson, consisting chiefly of arm-raising and knee-bending exercises, is not of more than fifteen minutes du- ration. How could such scanty training possibly improve the phys- ical well-being of these children? To represent the extent of the growth of physical training at the present time, let us consider for ex- ample the course offered in any modern Collegiate Institute. As you all know, such a school is fitted up with one or two large gymnas- iums, excellently equipped as to ap- paratus and is provided with a splendid, roomy swimming pool and athletic fields. VVith the aid of teachers specially trained in phys- ical culture, along with very com- plete equipment, the pursuit of such organized sports as basketball, rugby, hockey, swimming, baseball and rifle-shooting is made possible. However, above all these sports the ultimate importance of general ex- ercises in producing perfect physical fitness is not overlooked. Could an untrained team, utterly unused to strenuous exercises hope to win against a perfectly trained, properly conditioned team? Before even thinking of entering into compe- tition with any other teams, a long series of conditioning workouts must be undergone. Almost as much stress is laid on physical fit- ness as on a working knowledge of the rules and tactics of the game. You are aware of the fact that no one who is not in good physical con- dition can gain a place on any school team and if that person disregards the rules of food, rest or exercise, he cannot retain that position. Have you not noticed the ripple of the muscles of the basketball play- ers as they strive for possession of the ball? There we see in real life the actual fulfilment of one of the aims of physical training, namely, the promotion of the development of the muscular system a.'nd the body as a whole in order to attain the highest possible degree of all- round physical fitness. Thus we see the scope and conception of physical education has broadened and it has gradually assumed a meaning entirely different from that implied by the old term school drill. Now it is universally recog- nized that an efficient system of physical education is absolutely ne- cessary as it encourages the concur- rent development of healthy phys- ique, keen intelligence and sound character. In these days of close industrial application in more or less restrict- ed environment, cramped positions. and confined atmosphere. physical training is especially indispensable. Picture the man shut up in his stuf- fy, uptown office, slumped motion- less over his fiat-top desk. Follow him as he slouches homeward to tumble into an easy chair with a newspaper for a companion. After gulping down unwholesome food he again seeks his chair to devour the Daily News as seen through a cloud of smoke emitted from a stuf- fy old pipe. So he spends his time until retiring in preparation for a- nother monotonous day. Is it any wonder he has no interest in his work and thinks of it only as an endless routine? Compare with him the man who on leaving his of- fice throws back his shoulders as if shaking off the dingy indoor atmos- phere and sets off at a brisk walk. Before going home he visits one of his clubs and indulges in an hour's invigorating, not too strenuous swimming.

After partaking of a wholesome. carefully prepared meal, he relaxes for a few minutes of com- plete rest. Following this he keeps his unused muscles active and his whole body generally in good work- ing order by playing basketball or volley ball in one of the evening gymnasium classes. XYhen he re- turns he is ready to enjoy a sound night's sleep. This man rises feel- ing qualified for his work. Right here in our own hall of learning the corpulent business men who join our night school classes are examples of mature men who realize the importance of physical training. Unfortunately in their youth physical culture was not deemed a necessary factor in edu- cation, and they are at the disad- vantage of having to wait until well on in life before being able to secure any such training. However, seeing their good-natured expressions as they toil at basketball. or roll on the gymnasium floor in little pools of perspiration. one soon realizes that they are not worrying over lost op- portunities. lYhen men acquire lit- tle rolls of fat at the nape of their necks and iind themselves danger- ously near the fifty mark, immed- iately their chief interest in life be- comes the reduction of their increas- ing corpulency and the supplying up of unused muscles. Now I have not gone intricately into the nutritive, corrective or de- velopmental effect of physical edu- cation for I fear such an explanation would prove tiresome and uninter- esting. However, I have attempted to stimulate you to a new interest in. and a realization of the impor- tance of, this training of the phys- ical side of our nature. Those of you who are pupils let me urge you not to begrudge the: time spent in gymnasium classes, for this reason: It is especially during the period of growth, whenbody, mind and char- acter are immature and plastic. that the beneficial influence of physical training is most marked and en- during. In conclusion allow me to impress upon you the conviction that the development of physique is a matter of national importance, vital to the welfare and even survival of the race. Think of the conditions of modern civilization with its crowded localities, confined spaces and sedentary occupations, all re- stricting opportunities for natural, physical growth! Can you not see that if some system of physical training is not provided to counter- act the ills of such existing con- ditions, that civilization will grad- ually degenerate until the race fin- ally loses its virility? The' prin- ciples of our present remedy are built on a sound basis. Therefore, if the rules of physical training are rightly and faithfully used, wisely adapted and reasonably interpreted. they will undoubtedly yield an abun- dant harvest of recreation. improv- ed physique and national health.

Company manners might be de- fined as that system of unctuous politeness to guests, coupled with pseudo-discreet signals to the fam- ily in regard to what is expected of them inthe matter and manner of eating. drinking. sitting and talk- ing. This form of hospitality is ra- pidly disappearing but is still to be observed in certain homes. I shall never forget a dinner to which I was once invited. The ap- pointments were perfect, the food delicious, but the whole was spoil- ed, even to my youthful mind, by arched brows when the son of the family requested a second portion THE COLLE:GIATE. 75 of something particularly delectable.

K - .- Y- --- Y Y , In the seaside village of Ruffsea. any social gathering was not called complete unless old Silas Seaman was present. To look at, he was nothing more than a retired fisher- man, who had no use for anything else except his pipe and tervaccerf' His style of clothes never varied, and during all weathers, and at every village festival they consisted of the usual peaked cap, blue sweat- er, and high seaboots, reaching just above the knees, enclosing the low- er parts of a pair of well worn trousers. It was neither his accou- trement nor his weather-beaten smile that attracted attention, but it was his tongue. XVith it as an implement, he could manufacture tales of bygone experiences, that in- terested his village audiences far more than those stories which they read in the weekly magazine. His stories always varied, and no- one could guess at the ending of any of them. They either contained humorous anecdotes, that caused his listeners to rock with laughter, or else they were of such a nature, that the villagers remained eager, and breathless, till the end. There were certain stories that pleased some people more than others, and these generally dealt with adven- tures in foreign seas. This type was also old Silas' favourite and was in the following style. XYell folks, we was in the South- ern seas, just cruisin' around like, and enjoyin' ourselves to the limit, when all of a sudden, the water be- came choppy, and the sky began to grow dark-lookin'. Of course, we knew what was comin' and prepared for it, as a gale in them parts is somethin' turrible. At the same time, it became cold and sort of chilly like, so the captain ordered an extra tot of rum to be served. This was in the middle of the after- noon, and bein' sort o' thirsty and a friend of the steward, I obtained a little extra in my glass, not too much mind ye, just enough to keep 76 Tl-IE CO LLEGIATE me warmed up. Towards midnight the gale was at its worst, waves washin' clear over the -deck, makin' the ole ship rock like a see-saw. XYell this didunt bother us fellers much. 'cause we were use to it, but nevertheless, I had a durned hard job trying to get ter sleep. Along about three bells, I woke up with a start. I kinda wondered, just exactly, what had caused me to wake up. jumpin' outa me bunk, I slipped on my seaboots, and climb- ed up on deck. All I could see, was waves about six feet high 'lashin' against the ship's side, and the deck just about swimmin' in water. Everythin' seemed natural, so I turned to re- trace my steps, when there, right be- hind me, somethin' came down with a flop that shook the whole ship, crew an' all. Bless me folks, I very near jumped clear o' me skin, any- ways, I couldn't stand up. I glanc- ed up and looked behind me, and talk about move, well I jes' couldn't move nohow at all. For there, star- in' right at me was a pair of eyes as big as erlteacups, come to think of it, they might a been bigger. It had an extraordinary looking body, with tails or I think they calls 'em feelers. anyways whatever it was, they was all around the body, maul- in' every piece of loose material that came handy. It was those tails, that near brought about my death. Those eyes seemed to draw mine back again, and as I said before I jes' couldn't move. They seemed to take all my strength away from me, and I couldn't even move my ton- gue. Afor long, it seemed to re- cognize me as somethin' moveable, and began to bring them feelers to- wards me. Then it happened, I moved. It was the quickest move I have ever made in my life, I slid, yep, slid, right from the upper deck, clear down to the engine room. Reachin' there, I felt safe, except for the fact that I needed a new pair of trousers after that slide. I gingerly picked meself up and walked towards a small room near by, containing no- thing but a small cupboard. A slight noise behind me, brought back all my fears, and I finished that walk with a dive. I tried to shut the door, but I was too late, for that durned creature, I think it was a octo-octo-octotopius, or some such thing, had followered me right down them stairs. I was cornered, sure, for I had backed into one, it bein' the furtherest away I could git. There facin' me was death. Them tails was reachin' ever nearer and nearer, curlin' in and out as if wait- in' jest to crush me. Them eyes, were drawin' me right into those closin' feelers. I tried to back a- way, but all I could do, was crouch in terror. I felt my hair rise upon my head, and my blood grow colder and colder as it slowly left my fear- distorted face. In my thoughts I tried to think of some way in which to escape but they were so muddled that all I could think of was, my own foolishness in ever comin' into that room. My thoughts were ar- rested by a slimy, chilly feeling run- ning right through my fear choked body. Those eyes were close to mine, and those tails had encircled my whole body. My feet were numb, and the muscles of my face refuse to move, so that the yell, I had formed in my mouth, could not be uttered. Oh! if its eyes would move for but a second, I might have a chance I thought. Suddenly, that monster opened its mouth, and then I felt myself shot into the air. I struck the ceil- in' with a bump, that seemed to waken me up agen. As I revolved, a couple 0' times on my way down I caught a glance of a wide open mouth already to catch me. It never happened. I reckon I was about two feet away, from its mouth, when I let out a yell, that seemed to contain all the fear I had in my body. At the same moment, the ship gave a lurch to one side, and that awful monster, unable to retain its hold, slid through the door to the other side of the lower deck. It was my chance. Landing on the floor, I hardly stopped to pick my- Tl-IE CO LL E:GlATE 77 self up, but rushed for that little cupboard. I don't know how I did it, folks, but I squeezed in there somehow, and locked the door from the inside. About half an hour af- terwards my laughing comrades dragged me from my hiding place, and quelled my fears, by showin' me the dead creature layin' on the deck. lVell folks, he. continued, that O was one of the narrerest escapes I ever had, but there was a better one happened to me in New Zealand.

A- ' -J' -fr --Y -A-3 NUISANCE Do you know that one-sixth of the beautiful God-given, life-giving, health-promoting sunshine, the cheer of every heart and home is shut out of that great city of Lon- don far across the sea. NVhy? IT IS SMOKE, that black smudgy sub- stance we are so familiar with right here in our own town. Now as early as 1329, smoke was seen to be a nuisance, for it was in that year the first factory chimney was introduced into Europe. The people of Rome were tormented by ONE factory and adopted a means of doing away with it. But it was not till the time of Queen Elizabeth that the smoke of chimneys was no- ticed and this nuisance grew until the people clamoured against it and especially when Watt put his wood burning engine on the market. They even asked for his life, until in 1785 he was forced to place at their disposal his first smoke-de- stroyer. Parliament remained neutral un- til 1819 when it appointed a commit- tee to inquire how far persons us- ing steam engines and furnaces could erect them in a manner less prejudicial to public health and comfort. This was a most weak effort, and a ruse, for it was not till twenty-four years later that they took it seriously. They were en- raged by the uproar over such a pal- try substance as smoke but they hid their contempt for they feared the commons, and nnally in 1843 passed a bill prohibiting smoke to escape into the air. If you were to scan the horizon of London on either side of the Thames, it would be wholly devoid of chimneys. Imagine the greatest metropolis on this globe and the largest manufacturing city the world has ever seen minus chim- neys, that is except those of dwell- ings, which were excluded from the bill in 1845. The movement has not struck Canada yet, but it is now in full force in the United States. Canada! Canada! our own land behind time, it is hardly possible, yet it is. VVe heed reform along the line of smoke prevention. Even here in our city you all know what the result is, Dust! Dust! Dust! Clean! Clean! Clean! until you are tired out and wish there was no smoke. Now that's just what we want, NO SMOKE. It ought to be stopped at all costs. The lumber mills and foundries which burn wood or coal should be forced to burn their smoke under penalty of fine. The trains and boats are our worst offenders and if one were to go along the railroad on a winter's day he would see writ- ten everywhere with a great smud- gy pencil the black letters S-M-O- K-E. lValaceburg got rid of theirs, now why couldn't we do that here? 78 THE COLL EGIATE. YYe can, and I would like to see steps taken for the abolishment of smoke in Sarnia. And I hope that in the near fut- ure we will be able to say we live in the cleanest city in Canada in- stead of in one of the dirtiest, due chiefly to the abolishment of that most detestable substance, known as SMGKE. -'r - - --- v 'f - -5 A COMEDY OF ERRORS IN WHICH I, MYSELF, TOOK PART K - .- YY ---Y Y . The pretty cottage surrounded by evergreen trees stood back from the road and over the gate hung the sign. Linger Longer Lodge. The winding gravel path led to the spac- ious verandah and the open French doors gave glimpses of a bright and cheerful interior. It was a warm, sunny July morning and the waters of the bay lay sparkling as little ripples raced across the blue sur- face. The birds were singing merr- ily and as I idly lay in the hammock, I watched an industrious pair of wrens bringing food to their little ones under the broad eaves of the verandah. A long-haired Scotch Collie lay stretched at my feet and a coal-black kitten curled on a gaily colored chintz cushion. Everything was calm and peaceful. Suddenly around the bend of the road came a messenger boy. He hurried to our cottage, bearing a telegram which he delivered to, my eldest cousin, Beth. VVhy does one always feel tremulous at the arrival of these little yellow missives? There immediately flashed through my mind the fear that dire misfor- tune had befallen one of my absent friends. I followed Beth into the cottage and she read the dismaying telegram Charles will arrive at eleven o'clock, signed M. Lincoln. IVe three girls stared at each other in dismay. NVhatever shall we do, said Beth, and she looked exceeding- ly worried. I was altogether ig- norant of this person whose forth- coming visit should have such a startling effect, so Beth explained. Charlie, an Oxford student, drops unceremoniously on this unsuspect- ing household. The day he arrives the whole family of grown-ups are away leaving the responsibility on the shoulders of three young girls, to say nothing of mischievous bro- thers. On the day of his inoppor- tune arrival the groceries are down to minimum, and no groceryman until tomorrow. It is nearly ten o'clock and a minister-in-the-making for dinner, Carol dramatically cited, as she vig- orously applied the duster to the piano legs, Charles-Ioseph-David- Lincoln-Junior-let's :show him a thing or two. Beth said we'll have to have fricasseed chicken- there is nothing else. This corn- starch pudding won't do now-I'll have to send John to Aunt Rena's to borrow a,pie. A few minutes later Beth appeared in the kitchen doorway and said in a horrow- stricken tone, Qirls, there is not enough coal oil. For a seemingly interminable space of time we stared into each other's blank faces, then I had a brilliant inspiration. VVhy, I.said, I shall goto Mr. lValker's and borrow some. I immediately set off through the woods and walking as quickly as possible, soon reached the red brick farmhouse on the hill. Then I started homeward with the coal oil swashing in the huge red container which Mr. Wfalker had kindly loan- ed me. When I reached the, cottage I was greeted with further tales of woe. Coral asked, VVhere is a respect- able luncheon set? Beth informed us we should be painfully short of potatoes. . We routed the illusive THE. COLLEGIATE. 79 luncheon set. The obstinate stove was coaxed into submission. The fricasseed chicken was put on and finally simmeringg the living room was made presentable. Little .Iohn was informed as to the course of his behaviour. He must not chew gum, use slang, or ask for a second helping. john guilessly put on a splendid jazz record. Carol and I rushed across the room and stopped the offending selection. XYe gazed up the road terrified lest our visitor had arrived within hearing distance. NYe agreed that jazz records must not be played during the visit of our distinguished guest. lYe wereicer- tain that any Oxford College stud- ent would expect good music. Carol and I went upstairs to get dressed. lYhat a painstaking op- eration it was! There were rib- bons to be pressed, white canvas slippers to be cleaned and-I do not remember, but likely there was a stocking to be darned.f XYe saw a taxi coming up the road and a self- possessed young man stepped out. Carol and I, we confess, had an ir- repressible desire to giggle. lYe duly advanced, however, and Beth charmingly introduced us. 'XYe felt all hands and feet, until we arrived in the verandah hammock-on top of Iohnny's toy engine. NVe then surveyed our visitor. He was tall, curly-haired, and clad in the most stylish of grey tweed knickers. His monogrammed club-bag next caught our gaze and then his stylish, but, mystical college pin. Carol and I immediately excused ourselves on hearing a cheery whis- tle and the slam of the back door. Pardon me but why all the fuss. Can't a fellow sit on his own ver- andah? drawled Robert. No in- deed, responded Carol, On our ver- andah sits Charles Lincoln-and look at the garb you are in. You will have to put on your best suit. A few minutes later a voice called down the stairs breaking into the strains of Ave Maria, Hey, Beth, where is a clean collar? Beth van- ished to prevent any more humil- iating questions. Soon Robert ap- peared with shining countenance and properly brushed hair. The dinner was not what you would call a decided success. The fricasseed chicken was tough, the potatoes were soggy, and the cream pie had suffered considerably from Iohn's carrying. At dinner Robert was hopeless. He talked incessant- ly. Robert chose such strange, in- appropriate topics. He talked of rugby prospects-of baseball finals and Babe Ruth-of prize fighting. No number of kicks in the shins could show Robert the error of his ways. Vainly we endeavoured to lead 'the conversation to subjects more suited to Charles' training. llc broached the subjects of the ad- visability of the United States en- tering the League of Nations, and the Labor Situation in Great Bri- tain. To all our suggestions our guest smiled his approval and some- times, I even thought his eyes twinkled. I had offered to assist Beth at serving and Carol had warn- ed me about placing at the left side. In my excitement I inadvertantly placed the pie at his right hand side. I glanced at Carol and saw her lifted eyebrows and realized my error. I snatched the pie-plate and passed it over and set it down at the left side missing the top of his head by a l'1air's breadth. Carol was seized by a violent fit of coughing and hastily left the table. For the final course at dinner we had straw- berries and cream. johnny was particularly fond of CTCHIH. His berries were all eaten and a few drops of the precious cream remain- ed. johnny raised his dish and be- fore our horrified eyes proceeded to drink it. Robert and Charlie laughed uproariously and we, a lit- tle timidly joined in the merriment. After dinner Robert suggested showing Charlie his workshop. XYe felt an impending calamity. To take dignified, immaculately dress- ed Charles into Robert's workshop meant disaster. XVe had once enter- ed those sacred portals and had re- turned grease-stained, sadder but wiser girls. Charlie heartily re- 80 THE COLLEGIATE plied, Certainly wait a minute till I change my clothes. Three angry girls scolded Robert and too late he realized his error. Later, when doing the dishes, an apparition appeared. He was clad in khaki trousers, greased-stained and worn, and as fishy-smelling a sweater as even Robert graced. He walked over to the victrola, se- lected a carefully concealed jazz re- cord, put it on and turned to us. Come on Mary, he called and swung me into a fox-trot. Robert's voice was heard from without and he stopped the victrola, released me, grabbed some dishes from Beth's hands, placed them in the cupboard, pulled Carol's hair and ran outside slamming the door. He flung over his shoulders to three stunned girls, Meet you in ten minutes for a swim girls. Vile collapsed on the nearest chairs. Carol, being the first one to recover her breath, flippantly said, and that's that! and from now on our slogan is Be yourself. ' ' ' 1. THE BADGE OF HONOUR x .A ,z --f, - . -Y as -zr Y E s- -E- lt was the coldest day that the city of Clyde had felt since winter had set in. During the night rain had fallen, and frozen as it touched the ground, making the streets and roads slippery and dangerous. And to make matters worse, snow was beginning to fall, hiding the danger- ous spots from unsupecting pedes- trians, and forcing the most reck- less drivers to handle their cars with unusual care. But, in spite of the forbidding ap- pearance of the weather, two girls and a young woman made their way cautiously along the glassy pave- ment of the main street, their eyes ever on the outlook for innocent- looking patches of fresh white snow, beneath which would undoubtly be a slippery stretch of ice. The short flannel skirts of the two girls, their trim coats adorned with a small badge, and their felt hats banded with a coloured ribbon, showed at a glance that they were Girls Guides, while the third person in the group was probably their Captain. The girls were both in the same patrol, under the leadership of their companion, Miss lVendell. Both entered heartily into the spirit of the organization, both wore a num- ber of proficiency badges pinned to , i i I . Io' J l I7 Qi L.: Xl . J ' rg X v 5 x f 'Ill SE ill 'li l W he the right sleeves of their coats, yet there was a vast difference in their natures. Audrey Emerson, a girl who had succeeded in winning the love and admiration of her companion Guides strove day by day to better her ways and habits. She kept the Guide Law and Promise foremost in her mind, and endeavoured to obey them to the letterg their mot- to, Be Prepared, she put into con- stant useg and, as a result, was THE COLLEGIATE. 8l courteous, obedient, friendly, and a true Guide. But the other girl, Philippa Burn- ham, was directly the opposite. She learned the Law and Promise mere- ly because it was one of the re- quirements of the Patrol, she car- ried them out just sufficiently to win badges, and she took pride in the badges only because they were the subject of much admiration a- mong her friends and relatives. Their conversation during the icy walk was based for the most part, on a mysterious announcement made at the Guide meeting, a quarter of an hour earlier. Miss lVendell had explained that at the next meeting, one week hence, a special Honour Badge would be awarded, she had given no instructions as to how this badge could be won, merely saying that the one who deserved it, be- fore all others, would be presented with it. And each girl in the troop, twenty-four in all, wondered and wondered who would receive it, se- cretly wishing to possess it herself. So there is nothing we can do to win this badge, Miss VVendell? in- quired Audrey Emerson, carefully picking her way over a slippery part of the side-walk. Just wait until the next meeting, and the girl who deserves it shall receive it, replied their Captain, wisely nodding her head. They walked on, reaching the busiest section of the town, al- though at the present moment it was almost deserted. A policeman stood on a corner, trying to look dignified, when he really was chill- ed to the bone, as he told himself. A few business men passed briskly, and one or two shivering little newsboys shouted at the top of their shrill young voices, Clyde Mercury! Clyde Mercury! Hob- bling slowly along the -street, the biting wind nearly blowing her a- way, came an old woman. She car- ried a heavy basket of apples on her arm, and seemed to be having some difficulty in keeping her balance. Shall we help her, girls? asked Miss VVendell, softly. Remember the third Law: A Guide's duty is to be useful, and to help others. Yes, let's, responded Audrey, promptly, but Philippa's face took on an annoyed expression, while she thought. lVhy can't Miss XVendell let us hurry home? I'm nearly frozen! Then. just when they were on the point of offering to help, a sudden gust of wind came blustering a- round the corner. In a second the old woman had fallen, her apples scattered in all directions by the wind, and she herself so dazed that she just sat there. But Miss XVendell's eyes were keenly watching the two girls. She saw the prompt aid of Audrey, in helping the old woman to her feetg and she also saw the listless manner in which Philippa picked up a few of the apples. She made a mental note of these facts, turning to offer her services as well, and in five minutes or so the old woman was safely guided to her home, grateful thanks on her lips and in her eyes. The captain noted the polite way in which Audrey spoke to the woman, and she thought of the fifth Law: A Guide is Courteousf' Philippa, she noted, took little or no part in the words spoken between them, and she decided to speak to the girl about it. Philippa, don't 'you think it would be more like a Guide for you to be more enthusiastic in your helping? she asked, as they con- tinued their careful walking. I noticed that you hardly helped that poor old woman at all, and you didn't even speak to her! Couldn't you try and remember the Guide Law? Then, as a red flush mounted to Philippa's face at this unexpected reproof, Audrey remembered the fourth Law: A Guide is a Friend to all, and a sister to every other Guide. She said quickly, before Philippa could answer. Oh, Captain, I'm sure Philippa didn't mean to be selfish! You'll try to be nicer, won' you, Phil?,' And Philippa, remembering the 82 THE CO LLEGIATE promised badge, murmured. Yes. ' Miss lYendell, in the course of their walk to the girls' homes, noted well in how many instances the Guide Law applied to Audrey, and in how many cases it did not apply to Philippa. A Guide is loyal -How many times Audrey made it appear that Philippa was much better than she really was! A Guide is a friend to animals. The expression of dislike on Philip- pa's face, as a stray dog ran up to be petted and fondled, and the promptness with which Audrev gave him a gentle pat on the nose, proved her faithfulness in carrying out this Law. 'XA Guide's Honour is to be trust- ed. A Guide obeys orders. A Guide smiles and sings under difficulties A Guide is thrifty. A Guide is pure in thought, in word, in deed. Yes, indeed, Audrey carried out, or tried to carry out, all these Laws g but, on the other hand, Philippa dis- regarded them. Miss VVendell, who had, unobserved and unnoticed, been testing all the girls in the patrol, knew now to whom the badge- The Badge of Honour - would be given at the next meeting. She knew that Audrey deserved it-, and that she would proudly give it first place on her right sleeve. while others in the troop, though proud at first, might weary of it, and lose interest in the honourable position it gave the wearer. And at the next meeting, Audrey Emerson, flushing happily, went forward to receive the badge, and to have it pinned to the right sleeve of her coat. The Badge of Honour! she thought, It will always remind me to be honourable, for one who is dishonourable could not possibly wear it l a n r 7 rar- Y- - X A JOURNEY I SHOULD LIKE TO TAKE K .- -A --gf Y . To-day, as I sit in my comfortable rocking-chair before the glowing lire with a gaily colored advertise- ment of a European tour open be- fore me, I go back in memory to that little farm house where as a child I pictured myself-beautiful and wealthy-dancing beneath the soft moonlight on the deck of an ocean liner, or feeling the cool wind upon my face as I climbed the moun- tains of Switzerland. But the years have glided by and somehow the op- portunity has never come to me. Old age is creeping on and I begin to fear that I shall never realize my desire. But still I have hopes and I dream of the time when I shall board one of those gigantic ocean liners one reads about, and sail away to a foreign country. I shall sit at the captain's table and the other pass- engers will turn, and murmur one to another I-Iow fortunate! VVe evidently have with us an aristocrat whose presence will add colour and eclat to the boat. But they will find me to be kind and sympathetic, though a woman of the world. I shall see with a sudden pound- ing of my heart the 'fPrudential Life Insurance sign upon the im- penetrable Gibraltar, gaze with aw- ed wonder before the ancientland mysterious .Sphinx,iand sip cafe be- fore a restaurant on the Champs Elysees. I shall witness with hor- ror the cruel national sport of Spain, and glide in a swishing gondola over the moonlit highways of Ven- ice. VVhen the chattering Mohom- medan children crowd about me I shall toss them pennies and buy THE COLLEGIATE 83 from their silent fathers beautiful examples of their handiwork. XYell-it is pleasant to dream. If one must go on knitting red mit- tons for energetic grandchildren how much more enjoyable to visual- ize an enticing future than to worry about the health of the Smith fam- ily, the price of eggs, or a new re- cipe for pickles. -' Y - ir- 'W - Q A WINTER LANDSCAPE s. ,.-. -- ,-E--. A great blanket of stillness lies over all. Down in the valley, peo- ple move and live. Up here, on the mountain, things seem inanimate, void of life. Below, birds call cheer- ily to their mates. Above, a lone crow peeks silently at the unyield- ing earth. The landscape spread before me is wonderful in its clearness and majesty. Away to the right stretch the eternal peaks, cold and gray in the fading light. The snow is per- fectly white, yet lacks light, which a few moments ago, lent to it a dazzling splendour. I have but to turn my head to see a sight less splendid. perhaps, but far more en- trancing. The western sky is faint- ly flushed with a rosy glow, shading from warm scarlet to palest blue- green. A winding road starting life at my feet, seems to lead into the sunset. It is bordered with graceful elms, each twig of which is delicately outlined against the gorgeous sky. A tall pine is sil- houetted against the last crescent of the sun, giving the outer branch- es a queer, ethereal light. Nestling beneath the sentinel pine. is a cosy green and white cottage, with a twist of smoke from its chimney slowly ascending on the still even- ing air. The first sign of the weather breaking from the cruel surveillance of Iliinter, is the brook, which has bubbled forth from under its im- prisoning coat of ice to break into joyful song. Except for this, all is hard, white, and rock-bound. The birds have ceased singing, and the sun sinks, as if forever, be- hind the distant horizon. On turn- ing, I see the crow Hap mournfully away. All life seems extinct. qi -' '.'. ' ,m JJ, -4 v' , ,,, ,J, A-, X BIRD MUSIC By F, Whiffambe, 4.4.

Not one of these Dos- sesses a sweet voice, and yet we hear them more than any other bird. During the hunting season crows and hawks delight in betraying the hunter to the game by emitting shrill cries. Throughout the equi- noctial gales the screech of the gulls can be plainly heard above the roar of the water and the moaning of the wind in the pines.

CO LL EGIATE as hard then for anyone to go to sleep as it is in the summer months when the whip-poor-wills of the neighboring wood give vent to their feelings toward poor lkillie. Recently I had the opporunity of shooting a splendid snow owl perch- ed in our back yard at dusk Know- ing that they were scarce in these parts and that I could not stuff it myself I frightened the intruder in- to the woods. I had forgotten that these are the greatest noise makers of the owl tribe, and consequently I lay awake that night listening to its eerie hoots. I did not credit the noise to the owl and slept lightly the rest of the night. expecting any minute to hear someone breaking in. This continued several nights until one evening as I had no other way of reaching home from town I was forced to walk. On reaching O our lane which was intensely dark I stumbled into the bushes at one side. I stopped as though paralysed when my eyes met two large balls of fire glaring at me a little more than two feet away. Then remem- bering that a lynx had been seen in the neighborhood the week before and was still prowling about I lodg- ed a kick at the object. Immed- lately there arose a series of deafen- ing hoots which convinced me that it was only my friend the owl. 'When I arrived home my heart was beating faster than usual and, as I could not sleep that night with Mr. Qwl outside my window, I lay a- wake thinking that whether it was winter, spring, summer or fall there was bound to be some bird belong- ing to that season which would make me uncomfortable with its bird music.

R. GLEED WORKMAN, V O A TRAGEDY OF BIRD LIFE WITH A MORAL Each year, 'within our northern clime there comes, To some one of our yearly wintering birds, A death sa tragic as to rival that Of prisoners walled up in the feudal times. 'Tis that of untried and stripling partridge Which from the winter storm seeks transient shelter Beneath the deep piled drifts of fleeey snow, And, sleeping through the night -in quiet warmth, ll'ahes on the morn to sharp insistent hunger And, stri'z'ing upward through the yielding drift, Comes short upon the tightly frozen crust. But fearing naught, strikes with impatient beak To End it all unyielding- only then It feels itself a prisoner and there comes The freneied struggle of the wildling trapped. And this through all the day until the evening When there remains a single paltry-inch To bar.the bird from gaining soon its freedom. And this were shortly done, but here Halas! The partridge sinks in weakness from its hunger With bleeding beak and torn clawsfexliausted. And when it next essays the follozinng day,- llfith weakened strength, to pierce this last ,thin wall, Finds through the -night the frost, has done its To close the half-made breach still tighter yet. And now remaons but slozv and lingering death Protracted often o'er a space of days. And when the sun comes forth again at last To melt the prisoning ice-all that remains .-1 mass of feathers buried in- the snow. From this there is a lesson can be drawn Of -which we everyone stand sore.in need: lfVhen young let us not yield to idle habits Lest when we see the need to cast them of.

The mirror-clear water beckons, Gleaming mistly far below, Yet it longs to rise triumphant Into the evening glow. So I have oftenhseen it, That lonely tower sea-bound, VVith the silver moon above it And the soft mist curling round. The waves of the thundering ocean That washes its ramparts gray, Cannot deaden the joyous echo Of singing and music gay. But now the wind's voice is stilled And the tears spring to my eye, As a dirge of hopeless sorrow Ascends to the darkening sky. Do you see on the high-Hung terrace The king and his queen walking slow? Is there the glint of a golden crown Or a scarlet mantle's glow? Do they bring out with joyous rapture A beautiful maiden there? Do you see how the flashing sunlight Reflects from her golden hair? I saw the parents walking VVith dark robes floating free, The golden crown had been flung aside The maiden I did not see. -Nadine Paterson, V. QTranslation of Goethe's Das Schlosz am Meer. j TI-IE COLLEGIATE. EL BESO Me han cantado que, al morir, Un hombre de Corazon Sintio o presumo sentir En Cadiz repercutir Un beso dado en Canton. Que es impossible, Asuncion? Veinte anos hace, que de El primer beso. Ay de mi! Di mi primera pasion Y todavia, Asuncion Aquel frio que senti Hace arder mi corazon. -Ramonde Campoamor Ramon de Campoamor was a Spanish poet and miscellaneous xx riter of last century. His collection of poems called Dolora attracted the most attention, although some critics assert that his histories in verse are his masterpieces. His plays are also worthy of mention. THE KISS People have told me, that on dying A man of deep atlfection Felt, or thought he felt In Cadiz, the reverberation Of a kiss given in Canton. Impossible you say, Ascension? Full twenty years ago, I gave My earliest kiss. Ah me! I gave way to my lirst passion And yet, Ascension, I then felt a chill lYhich makes my heart burn still. o SOMMERNACHT Mit ausgespannten Armen Komm't leis' die Nacht: Drueckt Feld und XYald und Fluren Ans Herze sacht.

Johanna .-Xmbrosius was a German poetess of the nineteenth century. She married a peasant's son and for many years led the peasant's life of toil, until. when a middle aged woman, her verses, published in a weekly news- paper. brought her fame and position. She is a poetess of the people and her work has had a very wide circulation. SUMMER NIGHT lYith outstretched arms and tender So softly comes the night, She clasps field and forest, forsaken By the day in flight, Now she throws her mantle gently, Over tree and bush, lYhile her vesper-bells are ringing The world to hush! The earth has soon forgotten, Each trouble of the day To the hills I lift my eyes, then, Far, far away. A birdling I see drop downward To the glowing west. Oh! that my soul might follow Follow it now to rest! -Inez Nickels, V. o SI VOUS VOULEZ CHANTER Si vous voulez chanter, il faut aimer d'abord: .-Ximer le Ciel d'azur ou se perdent nos reves, Aiiner la mer immense aux Hots battant les greves, Aimer le vent qui berce au loin les moissons d'or. Si vous voulez chanter, il faut aimer d'abord. Tout ce que Dieu crea pOl1l' embellir la vie, La terre genereuse a nos soins asservie Qui sait donner le pain a qui seme l'ePfort. Si vous voulez chanter, il faut pleurer d'abord. Oui. sachez-le poete, on pleure quant on aime. Les larmes, voyez-vous, sont la note supreme Qui traduit tout l'amour un sublime essor. -Emile Coderre. This poem is a tribute to the glory of a dream, to the benefit of solitude and to the sweetness of love. It is the work of a young man whose superior artistic and literary ability, produced one of the most beau- tiful books that have been publishd for several years. His poems are exquisite, elegant in form and lofty in inspiration. The originality which
