SELWY HOUSE SCHOOL -T MAGAZINE 1- VOI.. b FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR IQRRA H34 SCHOOL NOTES Changes in the Staff at S.H.S. are somewhat infrequent, but in this year's Magazine we have to record the departure of Mr. Harry Donald and his succession by Mr. F.G. Phillips. Mr. Phillips came to us from Lower Canada College, where he had been a Master for four years, and we take this opportunity of bidding him welcome. Part of his duties is to help Mr. Pattisson with the games. Mr. Harry Donald, who, it will be remembered, staged our School plays so excellently for the last two years, has left us for London, England, where he has been appearing in Clifford Bax's play, The Rose without a Thorn , at the Duke of York's Theatre. We hear that he has joined Sir Martin Harvey's Company, and may be going on tour to South Africa with it. Best of luck, Harry F It is with much pride that we have to announce the election of another old Selwyn House boy to a Rhcdes Scholarship. This Scholarship, of the value of ff-1-OO each year is tenable for two years at Oxford University. Christopher Fberts, who was one of the two selected candidates in a held of twenty seven, was at S.H.S. for seven years, before proceeding to T.C.S., Port Hope, and the University of Bishop's College, Lennoxville, where he distinguished himself as a Gold Medallist and a hockey player. We congratulate him and his parents. The competition for the Angus Murray prize in 1923 was particularly close. The alternative subjects set were: l. The St. Lawrence River in History. 2. The greatest man of the 20th. Century. 3. What scientific discovery of the last century has been of most beneht to mankind ? Some excellent compositions were submitted. Hingston and Pollack championed the cause of Mussolini and Gandhi respectively, while Gowdey and Jackson wrote very good essays on the St. Lawrence. The judges eventually awarded the verdict to Jackson, who proudly took with him to Shrewsbury School, England, a beautifully bound copy of Shakespeare, the kind gift of Mr. Murray. QF IF wk lll SELWYN HOUSE SCHOOL MAGAZINE Mention of the Angus Murray prize prompts us at this point to congratulate Mr. Murray himself on his recent marriage to Miss Ward Davis, which took place on October 19th, 1933. His annual gift cf a Literature Prize has always been keenly appreci- ated, both by Masters and boys. We wish him all possible good things. Ik ik if Hearty congratulations to Leonard G. Schlemm, who in January, 1934, won the Badminton championship Csinglesl, in the Montreal and District Badminton tournament, and also to A.M. Tirbutt, jr., who won the boys' championship Csinglesl. Ulf Pl! if XYe have pleasure in printing herewith a letter from the Master of Selwyn College, Cambridge. Thank you very much for sending me this School Magazine. I have left the ack- nowledgment much too long, but it was busy work when term began. The Magazine has been put in our Combination Room, and it is a matter of great interest that the name of George Augustus Selwyn is thus kept in mind. Perhaps we shall some day have one of your schcolboys over here, passing from Selwyn School to Selwyn College. Again we beg leave to thank all our contributors who have so kindly helped in the compilation of this little Magazine. P? Pk if We would like particularly to point out to those who read it that the literary articles are mainly those of very small boys, and the standard of their efforts must be judged accordingly. We are pleased to report the following successes: - SIXTH FORM, 1933 TJPPER CANADA COLLEGE, ToRoNTo. The Governors' Scholarship No. 2 fValue S600 a year for 3 yearsl: J. Locke.

Our sincere sympathy is also extended to the relatives of H. Cave-Brown-Cave, who met an accidental death in the Lau- rentians on November 12th, 1933, and to those of John 1Yalkem, who was fatally injured near Peterborough, Ont., in October, 1933. It is htting here that we pay our tribute to that distinguished soldier, the late General Sir Arthur Currie, formerly Commander- in-Chief of the Canadian Expeditionary Force, and Principal of McGill University. His son, Garner, left S.H.S. in 1925. 131 SELWYN HOUSE SCHOOL IXI.-XG.-XZINE SCHOOL PRIZES These were kindly presented by Mrs. XY.

We niet at the School and on the Mountain whilst the weather was line, and later used Scout Headquarters until the Toy-Repair Shop commandeered the Hall. We again thank the Committee of the Kildonan Hall for allowing us to meet there during Decemlier. This year it was decided that all Friday Meetings should lwe games meetings, and that the Troop should discontinue meeting in halves, as it had done in previous years. SFlZ'7ft'1IlL87'. All new P.Ls. were invested. This entailed retaking the Scout Promise. The Central District Treasure Hunt was held on the last day of the month at Montreal West. Nine of our Scouts attended and had some good scouting. Oclober. Part I of the Sphinx Training Course was held. Our T.L. and P.Ls. Barclay, P. Little and Lewis attended. A 100 ft. rope was purchased for Tug-of-War games. N0 member. Armistice Day falling on a Saturday, the customary Parade was not held. The Central District Rally took place in this month in order to attract public atten- tion to the Toy-Repair Shop Activities in the following month. :X team from the Troop gave a very smart performance, demonstrating Land Drill for Rescue . They were trained by Scout R. Johnas of St. George's Troop. The colours were carried as follows: King's, H. Patchg Troop, A. Randlesg Guard, R. James. Dermzber. The Troop was temporarily split in halves to facilitate meetings at the Kildonan Hall and attendance at the Toy-Repair Shop. All P.Ls. who attended Part I of the Sphinx Course have now passed successfully. During the term we sent Scouts to act as Ushers for the M.R.T, play Dangerous Corner , and also for a National Council of Education Lecture at the Montreal High School. l9l Sl'II.WYN HOUSIQ SCHOOI. MAGAZINE I'nwanted uniforms belonging to the Scouts, and also to some of those who had left, were collected and sent to the Ladies Benevolent Society. The standing of the Patrols in the Competition was in the following order: Buffalo, I-Iyenas, VVolvcs, Fox, Cougars and I.ions. We are happy to state that by this date all recruits had been invested and that there were '23 Scouts of Znd Class rank. Nineteen New Proficiency Badges had been obtained, and on the whole all Scouts showed keenness in passing tests and doing badge work. As in other years the Troop sent Christmas Hampers to poor families hard hit by the depression. Easier Term. The Troop skated at the Coliseum on Tuesday afternoons and held regular meetings every Friday at Scout Headquarters. A comprehensive Ice Hockey programme was drawn up. Besides an Inter-Patrol Hockey Competition, matches with other Troops were arranged. i7IlllllIl7lX'. Part II of the Sphinx Course was held at Headquarters and at this time, T.I.. Barott and P.I.. P.Little have passed with high credit. The Buffalo, Cougar and Fox Patrols challenged the Lion, Wolf and Hyena Patrols at Hockey. The team of the latter three Patrols won by 8 goals to 6. IVe hope to hold a return match at the end of the term. The Scout iYeek-end at St. Margaret took place on Saturday 27th, a month earlier than last year. Thirty-four Scouts travelled from Park .-Xvenue Station with the Scout- master and were met by Mr. YYanstall at St. Margaret's Station. Having settled our quarters at the Alpine Inn we tried the snow on the Golf Course before lunch. In the afternoon some of us skied over to the Chalet Cochand whilst the rest had good fun ski-joring there. After each, according to his taste, had sampled the toboggan- ing and skiing facilities, to say nothing of the ski-jumping, in which our T.L. and Scouts Porter and P. Mackenzie distinguished themselves, we ski-jored over to the Holt's house where we had been invited to fortify ourselves with refreshments. Our thanks go to Mr. and Mrs. W.R.G. Holt for extending such a hearty welcome to 3-l' hungry Scouts. Back at the Inn, we changed into uniform, partook of a good dinner and then played Scout games such as: High Cockalorum, Snake Relay, Grasshopper Relay, Indoor Stalk- ing, Leg Vfrestling and Cock Fighting. In the Stalking game the guard of the treasure seemed to drench the bystanders more often than the thief, with his water pistol. Bed followed games, everyone being determined to rise early on the Sunday morning. A paper chase took place after breakfast. Scouts P. Mackenzie and E. Chambers went off ten minutes ahead of the main party to lay a trail, which we found later, led us over Desjardins Mountain. The snow was soft and sticky and in spite of false trails the Hounds sighted the Hares as they were reaching the summit. Chambers was soon caught but Mackenzie led his pursuers a long way in the wrong direction before giving up. By the end of the morning we were all glad of a rest and the thought of lunch. lI0l FOR THE SCHOOL YE.-KR 1933-1934 The afternoon saw the chief event of our programme in full swing. The Slalom Competition was held on the Golf Course Hill instead of at the house of Mr. A. Purvis to which - although we had been warmly invited- we were at the last moment unable to go. A fairly stili' course was worked out with flags, and the juniors were sent down first. Their falls and the lowering of the temperature made the course quite hard and fast. Scout K. Porter won with fastest time 21-3 '5 , Scout P. Mackenzie came second with 24 , while Scout F. Frosst's performance of 30-2 '5 was so good that it merited a consolation prize which has since been awarded. At dinner, Mr. Wianstall presented a silver cup each to Scouts K. Porter and P. Mac- kenzie for their prowess in Slalom Racing. On the 30th we played St. George's Scout Troop at Hockey at the Coliseum. The visitors beat us by 5 goals to l, Scout Chambers scoring our only goal off a pass from the T.L. The visitors out-skated us most of the timeg our own team was considerably weakened as three of our senior Scouts were absent. Februzzrlv. We played a Match against the Montreal High School Troop at the Coliseum. Our speed and team work made up for the visitors' strength and size. P.L. Leslie, our Captain, scored two goals. The result was a draw. :Xt a return Played against the St. Georges Troop at Atwater Park we won by 5 goals to 4. It was an exciting and fast game, and our opponents in a last attempt to win dis- pensed with their Goal-keeper, playing six men on the ice during the last two minutes. Leslie scored -I goals and Kingstone I goal. On the 21st the Troop Photo was taken in the afternoon at Headquarters. In the evening the T.L., P.Ls and Scotmaster attended the annual P.Ls. Banquet at the Windsor Hotel and heard a very witty speech by the Hon. Charles A. Dunning, one time Minister of Finance in the Dominion Parliament. T.L. Barott and P.L. Little passed Part II of their Sphinx Training Course. Cerzfral District. A Seconds Rally was held at Headquarters. Five of our Seconds attended what proved to be a most interesting series of talks on Scouting from the Second's point of view. We met the lNIontreal High School Hockey team at the Coliseum on the 27th for a return lNIatch. Our visitors played a determined game, but the score remained 5 goals to 3 in our favour. Our Captain scored -l goals and Scout Savage the other. Those who had difiiculty in grasping the Scouting Ideal, will, we are sure, have bene- fitted much by the fine address given by Mr. Jackson Dodds over the Radio early in Febru- ary. Xve would end these notes with sincere wishes for the speedy return to health of our Chief Scout Lord Baden-Powell, and we look forward to seeing him when he visits Montreal next year. llll SELWYN HOUSE SCHOOL MAGAZINE Glbristmas Christmas Day falls on the twenty-fifth of December annually, and is the feast of the birth of Christ. The use of holly, mistletoe and the Yule log for decorative purposes at Christmas was probably a Pagan, rather than a Christian, custom. Christmas was celebrated on the sixth of January until the new calendar was in- troduced, but now we call the sixth of January l.ittle Christmas . ln most countries Christmas Day is a public holiday. The custom of giving presents at Christmas dates back to an old heathen usage. The sending of Christmas cards by way of friendly greeting and remembrance commenced only in the last century. The Christmas-tree originated in the days of the Romans, and went from Germany to Great Britain, and now is common in a great many parts of the world. Santa Claus is an imaginary person who is supposed to fill Children's stockings with presents at Christmas. Often at a cliildren's Christmas party some one dresses up as Santa Claus and distributes toys from the Christmas-tree. The name Santa Claus is derived from Saint Nicholas, a rich young man who tried, because he so much admired the kind and gentle character of Christ, to make his money give other people happiness. He went about placing coins and gifts in the homes of the poor, and when he died people called him Saint Nicholas. XY. B., Form 5. Zleruplanes bor hundreds of years men have had a great desire to fly. blany attempts were made, with various kinds of mechanisms but with no success. In l7S'l and V733 two Frenchmen named Montgolfier made balloons, which rose high in the air. They were inflated with hot air produced by burning straw. Two men dared to go up in one of these in 1793 and afterwards many voyages were made in several countries. Soon, however, hydrogen gas was found to be better than hot air, and large balloons were built. John Stringfellow in 1843 built the first power-driven model aeroplane to achieve a short free Hight. The motive power was a tiny steam engine. Then in l896 Otto Lilienthal, known as the father of aeroplanesn, was killed in an accident, after a series of motorless gliding experiments in Germany, which paved the way for the power-driven, man-carrying aeroplane. lt was in 1900 that Wilbur and Orville Wright, in America, began their motorless gliding experiments. When, on December l7th, i903 Wilbur and Orville Wright actually Hew with a power-driven aeroplane, they undoubtedly did the greatest thing that had ever been accomplished in flight. That first flight lasted for just twelve seconds, four trials in all were made that day and the fourth Hight was a matter of only fifty nine seconds. It was not until September 26th, 1905 that the Wright brothers Hew thirty eight minutes and covered in one flight, a distance of twenty-five miles without alighting. Santos Dumont achieved short flights, with a fifty horse-power biplane in France in 1906. llil FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 1933-1934 On July 25th. 1909 M. Louis Bleriot, the Frenchman, made the first journey above the English Channel in a heavier-than-air machine ascending from Les Baragues near Calais, and alighting at a point near Dover Castle. This historic flight, accomplished, in a small twenty-five horse-power monoplane lasted thirty-seven minutes. In August of the same year the world's First flying meeting was at Rheims, in France. A giant Handley biplane flew over London carrying forty passengers in November 1918. In June 1919 Sir John Alcock and Sir Arthur W. Brown, in a twin-engined Vickers- Vimy-Rolls biplane, won a 510,000 prize by a non-stop flight ofone thousand eight hundred and ninety miles from St. John's, Newfoundland, to the west coast of Ireland, covering this distance in sixteen hours twelve minutes, the average speed being one hundred and eighteen miles per hour. This was the first trans-Atlantic crossing. Sir Alan Cobham's five thousand miles' air-tour of Europe, was accomplished in three weeks in the year 1921. Lieut-Commander R.E. Byrd in 1926, starting and returning to Spitzbergen, flew over the North Pole and back in a three motored Fokker's plane, being in the air fifteen and a half hours and covering one thousand three hundred miles. Capt. C. Lindbergh flew alone from New York to Paris in a small monoplane, doing three thousand six hundred and thirty nine miles in thirty-three and a half hours in 1927. In 1928 Flt-Lieut. S.N. lvebster won for Britain, the International Schneider Trophy, at a speed of two hundred and eighty-two miles per hour. In the same year Mr. Bert. Hinkler flew from England to Australia in fifteen and a half days in a thirty horse-power light aeroplane. Flt-Lieut. lYaghorn on September 7th, 1929 won the Schneider Trophy at a speed of three hundred and twenty-eight miles an hour. Flt-Lieutenant George H. Stainforth held the world's speed record from 1931 to 1933 for Great Britain, when he created a speed of four hundred and fifteen miles per hour. This record, however. has recently been eclipsed by an Italian oflicer. Amy Johnson, born in Yorkshire, England, is probably the greatest woman who ever took the air. She flew alone from London to Australia in 1930, and in November, 1932, broke the record of the fastest time from England to South Africa by flying from Lympne to Cape Town, 6220 miles, in four days, six hours and fifty-four minutes. Her husband, Captain Mollison is also one of the best and most popular aviators living. I-Ie has many air records to his credit. Perhaps the most outstanding aviator of our day is Air-Commodore Kingsford Smith. He has broken record after record in his air-mail flights. I-Ie has recently flown from England to Darwin, Australia, in the remarkably short time of twelve and a half days. He has since been knighted by the King for this marvellous feat. R.C., Form -1. eu llvl SELWYX HOUSE SCHOOL MAG.-KZINE ,first lesson Reading, of course! We have all heard of the three R's- Reading, wRiting and aRithmetic- and the first of these, at least since the use of printing, is Reading. It is indeed an open road to knowledge, however obstructed to-day by the misuse of such devices as the movies , the gramophone and the radio. XYhat would be your state if you could not read ? Of how much pleasure and profit would you be deprived F For the profit, the terse words of Francis Bacon, in his essay on Studies , have surely made that clear. It is rather of the pleasure that we shall now think. iYell, then, having learned to read, what shall we read and how shall we read F Let us read the truest, the best-written, and the most pleasing cf written words in all languages. Parents, teachers, and true friends Cboth public and privatej will help ycu in your choice. Do not be afraid of poetry or plays. For the how , read lst. correctly, 2nd, clearly, 3rd, as intelligently and beautifully as you can. There are, of course, three modes of reading: - Cab reading to yourself fthe French call it le lire des yeux J, Cbj reading aloud, CCD reading from memory, which we often call reciting or, from stage or pulpit, Flocution. You had good examples of the last in the charming performances of the plays, The Merchant of Venice and As You Like lt. Now, as soon as you have learned to read, in the usual sense, you should learn to scan. By this I mean that you should learn to recognise and use certain groups of syllables which have come to be universally used by prose writers and by poets: we call them feet and have kept their Latin and Greek names. For example there are the spondee, with 2 long syllables- such as undone , forlorn g the dactyl, which has 1 long and 2 shorts, e.g. gracefully 4 the trochee, 1 long and 1 short, e.g. leaping , nearer g the iambus, 1 short and 1 long, e.g., to strive , away 5 the anapaest, 2 shorts and l long, at a bound , and others all of which great writers have found most useful in adding to the meaning of their words the beauty and force of fitting sound. Now feet fall into rhythm and often rhythm brings about set lines in set groups, as in the beautiful Spenserian stanza and the wonderful works of Yergil, Shakespeare, de Heredia and other immortals. Looking then for feet and rhythm, give yourself the pleasure of reading not only English, but Latin and French- even before you can fully grasp the meaning of these latter two. Look, too, for similes, metaphors, sound echoing sense, and other pretty tricks of skilled writers. Caj And here you'll often find a happy sense of help. For many of your Mothers, rightly proud of their accomplishments in French at school, at college or while travelling abroad, take such strong interest in the tasks you're set that they are but too glad to help you read, and if, in doing so, they carry back their memories to the times when they ex- celled in reading French or Latin poetry, these memories will certainly increase the pleasure that they find in helping you. Selwyn House Mothers shine in this respect, as boys, and masters too, have often found. fbfb Clf you will read with care from fab to fbi it may be that your ear will find for you a sort of rhythm in those sentencesl. ll-ll FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 1933-1934 There is one body of English Literature with which the art and joy of reading, in all three modes, have been, for centuries, closely associated, viz., the Liturgy of the Church of Christ Catholic in England as by Commons' Law and Royal Assent Established Qin other words-the Book of Common Prayeri. Passing by such miracles of sense and sound as A General Thanksgiving and The Lord's Prayer , glance for a moment at the Collects. Here, in these brief lyrics of the adoring and petitionary soul, tribrach and anapaest, dactyl and iambus follow one another in gemlike perfection, informed by a rhythm justly consonant with the sense, but unchecked in their grouping by the rigid rules of academic prosody. Scan them as you please, you will not fail to find a beauty of syllabic grouping suiting the cadence to the sense. fNote that alliteration may lend lilt to what were else a listless line.j I used, just now, the term gem-like , and indeed the simile will bear extension, for, as upon a hyacinthine plush, its centre bright beneath the amber's glow, the lapidary's hand, with art and grace, poses some few admingled, unset gems, so- in the soft gloom of sacred arches, from glittering altar or bright chancel stall, the cleric's well-tuned voice daily recites the deathless assonances of Cranmer and his fellows: for example:- Prevent us, O Lord, in all our doings, with Thy most gracious favour, and further us with Thy Continual help, that in all our works begun, continued and ended in Thee, we may glorify Thy holy name and finally, by Thy great mercy, obtain everlasting life, through Jesus Christ our Lord This particular example is used here because for some years, about twenty, it has been our First Lesson , daily, in Form VI. It is so old that its history is uncertain. It is so true to life that it might be used by the votaries of any real religion. About once a year a few words of explanation have been given, something like this:- The meaning of these words must be taken in the light of their Latin origin. Prevent does not mean stop , but prae-veni , come in front of us, as a guide or leader, and with favour Cfaveoi, with encouragement, clapping of hands, as a mother or nurse- or, later, a comrade i- cheers you on in your attempts to walk, or win a race. Continual Ccon, teneol means holding to us all the time. Glorify 1 let us shed credit on the leader- ship and guidance, and then, at last, by Thy mercy, obtain everlasting life Ah l that, of course, is a very high ambition. To do some deed, to register some thought, that will live for ever. How many have done it ? Moses, one supposes: Galileo, or Isaac Newton perhaps: surely an Aramaic carpenter's apprentice Cfor very few in all the world at that time saw in Him more than thatj born in a stable in small Bethlehem and sent to a cruel death when only thirty-three: shall Shakespeare wear so bright a crown, or mighty Bach ? May we, in our own times, claim it for Pasteur or for Rutherford F Perhaps for all of these- and others-in some degree. Still, there is the mark at which to aimz- to trace, amid the myriad facts of life, one of those simple-seeming Laws of Nature which have been so fitly called the Thoughts of God z to score, for mortal ears, some theme that may be caught by reverent listener, from the music of the spheres. That is reading Life. U51 SELWYN HOUSE SCHOOL MAGAZINE It will need hard, steady effort. Your manhood will try to grow at the expense of your godliheadg it need I1Ot do so: do not let it. Shades of the prison-house begin to close upon the growing Boy . That is true, but the same inspired soul who writes that says, with equal truth, The Youth still is Nature's priest, and by the vision splendid is on his way attended. Reading the lives and adventures of great men will surely inspire and help you in your own life. What man has done, man still may do. YVho shall say how much Xenophon, Magellan or Byrd owed to Moses, Ulysses, or E.R.G.R. Evans Cthat splendid plain tale of great deedsj, and others of whom you read ? Read then, read good things: you will find them the most interesting and, as you read, use your imagimztion Cthat is, your power of making pictures - images - in your mindj. Follow the thought of William Blake, who claims immortality for us if we will but be just and true to our own imaginations, those worlds of eternity in which we shall live for ever . But, remember that fanrvv is but the soul-less shadow of imagination, and so do not spend too much time on mere fiction. We spoke just now of our First Lesson in Form VI. Once a year, on leaving day, the evening of your life at school here, another form of words is used. The first sentence will be recognised, at once, as a straight crib , but as much too apt and beautiful to be left out: the rest is our own. Lighten our darkness, we beseech Thee, O Lord, and by Thy great mercy defend us from all dangers and perils of the night. Direct us through the mists and mazes of this life so that, manfully avoiding that which ought not to be done, and worthily accomplishing that which ought to be done, we may come at last to Thy eternal rest, following our guide and pattern, Jesus Christ. Mists are circumstances in which you cannot see any way clearly. Mazes are places where there are plainly several ways to be taken, but you do not know which is the right one. You need then direction. There have been such places, lately, for many men. Let us hope that, in any such case, all Selwynites will try tc get, and will get, the best direction, by asking the Right Person or by reading the Right Book. C.T..-X., hlarch l932.

J. H., Form 5. llfml FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 1933-1934 In Barents Doctor Grant, Principal of Cpper Canada College, has kindly permitted us to print the following extract from the 'College Times h, Christmas 1933. A further word to those of you who are parents. Every Autumn a large amount of my time is taken up in the fortnight before Term opens in long talks with parents, who tell me what a nice boy their son is, how willing and sensible in the house, and how his failure to win promotion was due to his inability to get on with Mr. WX , or to the failure of Mr. Y to understand the need of his sensitive soul for constant encouragement, or some such reason. Usually I stand firm, but sometimes I yield, and the result in most cases is unfortunate. The boy, for whom his father is so willing to stand surety, usually plods along for another year at the bottom of the Form, and at the end of the year again falls down in his examinations. It cannot be too often emphasized that the best way to obtain promotion is to win it, and that, except in the case of occasional genius, success in either Pass or Honour Matriculation cannot be gained by one year's steady work, following on two or three years of idleness, even if promotion has been won during these years by a combination of luck and parental intercession. In any case, the first object of this school is not to cram boys through Matriculation but to turn out good citizens of Canada. Such citizens should get, at school, at least the beginning of training in tackling a problem with clearness and with zestg and I hereby warn both boys and parents that next Autumn I shall make an even more resolute attempt than I have in the past to stand firm against parental pleading. May I call your attention to a cartoon in a recent ' Punch 'F It is a wonderful dispensation of Providence, lN'Iadam , says the Headmaster to the fond mother, that all dull boys are orphans. We hope that the above will prove of interest to parents generally.

You're raught l P.C.L., Form 6 U31 FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 1933-1934 Ein the Zbeart of the Zlaurentians There are so many wonderful views in the world which are strange, beautiful, and instructive, that it is diflicult to choose one to describe. Among the many such places, which can be visited, there is a little hamlet known to few, but delightfully simple, and not far from Montreal. This consists of a little group of country-houses, settled in the heart of the Laurentians, and in an entanglement of beautiful lakes of small size but noted for their delicious trout. The houses, themselves, add to the beauty of the scene, and are very simple in their furnishings. The plan of the greater number of houses is to have, off a screened-in porch, a combined sitting and dining-room, leading from which are the bedrooms and the kitchen. The trees sur- rounding the houses are mostly pines, and the scent from the pine-needles, which form a thick, soft carpet, is very pleasant. It is possible to go through the bush for miles, without meeting anybody, but what are most pleasant, particularly to the angler, are the little, in- land streams which come trickling down the mountain-side and are full of speckled trout. In the fall of the year, the leaves of the maple-trees are turning from green to yellow, and from yellow to a gorgeous deep red. Last, but not least, there is a little nine-hole golf course which winds its way up and down, over hill and dale, and from any part of this you have a delightful view, with plenty of fresh air, scented by the pines. The splash of the trout, and the singing of the merry brook, together with the odour of the pines, remain in the memory of all those who are lucky enough to know this secluded paradise. F.W.I-I., Form 5. Zoos A zoological garden is a public garden, in which a collection of animals is kept. The oldest Zoo in the world is in Paris. London has the largest Zoo in the world with about two thousand five hundred different animals. New York has also a large Zoo. In the first Zoological gardens the animals were kept in cages, where they could not get enough sunshine and fresh air, and had too narrow a space for motion. Many of them therefore died after a few years. The Zoos nowadays are much better arranged, because the surroundings are made suitable for the animals. For instance the crocodile has got a big basin to swim in, and nice sand upon which to warm himself in the sunshine. And the squirrels, monkeys, birds, bears, wildcats and panthers have trees in which to frolic. At Yvhipsnade, in England, a park C a branch of the London Zooj has been set aside for the larger animals, like lions, tigers, who are free to roam in extensive enclosures. Once when I went to the Zoo in Copenhagen, I saw a big hippopotamus weighing about two tons opening its huge mouth. I thought I could park a big automobile in there l But these creatures are not so big as the elephant. A new born baby was already the considerable weight of two hundred pounds. A ripe age for an elephant is about seventy years. Some elephants can be over a century old. The funniest animals are the monkeys with their man-like manners. When the visitors are tired of locking at the animals, they can either rest in beautiful spots in the garden surrounded by all sorts of Howers, or in a restaurant in the garden having lunch or afternoon-tea listening to a band.

The primitive man could nnd a tree fallen across a stream by which he could cross. These were the First bridges. Now we have great bridges such as the Forth, Quebec, Peace, Hell Gate, Jubilee, Tower, Victoria, Tay and Faux-Namiti bridges. The longest stone bridge in the world crosses the Susque- hanna River. The Forth, Quebec and Jubilee are cantilever bridges, the Peace, Tay and Victoria are ordinary arch bridges, the Hell Gate is a steel single arch bridge, and the Tower is a stone bridge. Another steel single arch bridge is at Sydney, Australia. This bridge called the Sydney Harbour bridge, crosses Sydney's harbour, as the Montreal Harbour bridge does that of Montreal. It is a very long bridge, and almost equals the Hell Gate bridge in length. It is one of the finest bridges in the world, both for length, height and graceful structure. The Forth bridge was designed by Sir John Fowler and Sir Benjamin Baker. lt was the world's finest cantilever bridge until it was surpassed by the Quebec bridge. The three pairs of cantileyers are each thirteen hundred and sixty feet long, and, when stretching out to each other leave a space of three hundred and hfty feet between each, where ordinary steel girders are used. lt is a hundred and fifty feet above high tide, to allow ships to pass under it. Over fifty thousand tons of steel and a hundred and forty thousand cubic yards of masonry were used in this bridge. The Quebec bridge is the world's longest cantilever bridge, its main span being eighteen hundred feet long and its central span eighty-eight feet wide, a hundred and ten feet deep, six hundred and forty feet long, and weighs over live thousand tons. It was completed in September, 1917, after two disastrous failures. In that year eighty-two men were drowned when the southerly part of the bridge collapsed under its own weight, and a new bridge had to be built, and in 1916 the centre span dropped to the bottom of the river when it was being hoisted, a new span having to be built on that occasion. The Peace bridge, opened in nineteen twenty-seven, crosses the Niagara from Fort Porter to Fort Frie. Five steel arches span the river, and a space of a hundred feet is allcwed for the ship canal. The Hell gate bridge is part of a long viaduct. It is the longest steel single arch bridge in the world, the distance between the piers being ten hundred and seventeen feet. The Jubilee bridge crosses the Hoogli near Calcutta. Designed by Sir Bradford Leslie, the central double cantilever is three hundred and sixty feet long, and the two girders are four hundred and twenty feet long. The Tower bridge in London is nine hundred and forty feet long. When a ship is too high to pass, the roadway parts in the middle and is drawn up to each side on enorm- ous hinges, leaving a space two hundred feet wide and a hundred and forty-one feet high. There is a foot path above. The Victoria bridge in Montreal was built around an old tubular bridge which was gradually removed. It is sixty-five hundred and ninety-two feet long, and has twenty-five spans. 1211 SELWYN HOUSE SCHOOL MAGAZINE The Tay bridge near Dundee is over two miles long and has seventy-four spans. Those in the centre allow seventy-nine feet for ships to pass. The first Tay bridge col- lapsed in a great storm, beneath the weight of a train, with great loss of life, in 1879. A curious bridge is the Faux-Namiti bridge on the Yunnan railway in China. It is two hundred and twenty feet long, and spans a wedge-shaped fissure three hundred and fifty feet above the water. In building it two bascules were lowered, one from each Clif, by cables and Winches, and with these as supports the railroad was laid across. In India there are many interesting bridges, such as rope bridges, old bridges with many dwellings on them, and others. The world's highest bridge is in Africa, spanning the Zambezi four hundred yards below the Victoria Falls. It is four hundred and twenty feet above the water and six hundred and fifty feet long. It is part of the unfinished marvel of the next generation and the dream of Cecil Rhodes, the famous Cape-Cairo rail- way. The Brooklyn bridge in New York was once the longest suspension bridge in the world. Its main span is sixteen hundred feet long and a hundred and thirty feet above the East River. Here I have described to you many kinds of bridges in both the Orient and the Occident, many of them quite interesting, such as the Tay, Tower, and Faux-Namiti bridges. Bridges are one way of joining two nations and aiding trade. For instance, there is a bridge at Niagara Falls half of which is in Canada and half of which is in the llnited States. There are international and interstate bridges all over the world, all aiding the civilization of this world of ours. V.C.G., Form 2. Q fem impressions of Sabrehishurp Through Shropshire, one of the most beautiful counties of England, winds the River Severn, flowing languidly on its way down the verdant valley. It is here, on a hill over- looking the peaceful little town of Shrewsbury, slumbering in an almost perpetual mist, that Shrewsbury school is situated. Founded by Edward the Sixth, exactly three hundred and eighty-two years ago, the School is renowned in that it has been the place of education for many men, both brave and learned, whose names are famous in history. Many fond mothers shrink in terror, when Papa thinks it is time to suggest sending little Willie away to school. But after a term at agreat English Public school, YYillie is extremely independent of the care of Mama, perhaps to her disappointment. Now, this is not a school prospectus, nor is it a lurid description of all the pleasures and good points of a great school, leaving out all the bad ones, and all the trivial worries of school-life of which, -f fit would be great affectation to deny,J - there are many, but it is an endeavour to let the reader see, very briefly, an important stage in the training of the boyhood of England. Many abroad have the impression that discipline of an unimaginable strictness, particularly over work, is indulged in in the schools of England. But this view is distorted. There is no one more friendly and helpful than one's head or house-master to-day. Nor are the grossly exaggerated tales of praepostors beating small boys, for petty personal oflences, in any way founded upon fact. l22l FOR THF SCHOOL YF.-XR 1933-1034 True, in most houses here there are strict rules concerning the compulsory playing of games, but if this were not so, Shrewbury and other schools could not have excelled in the world of sport to such an extent as they have. Just as an example of this, it is sufficient to say that there are three Salopians rowing for Oxford this year, and one for Cambridge, whilst the Oxford coach is a house-master here, and of course, rowing coach for the first eight. The rolling hills of the picturesque country-side afford excellent opportunities for long cross-country runs, one of which, known as the Tucks , in which the entire school runs, is an event of the year. This is simply a glorified melee of boys small and big, and in the five-mile course there are points called all-ups , at which everyone waits till the last of the stragglers has come up. The Shrewsbury Ofiicers' Training Corps is exceptionally well disciplined, and the Prince of XYales, in his visit last year to commemorate the Jubilee of the moving of the school-buildings to Kingsland from the town itself, made special mention of the Guard of Honour. Amongst famous old boys one might mention the hero of the Battle of Zutphen, Sir Philip Sidney. Tradition here is very strong. And now farewell, my comrades, for the night is falling fast, One final word M I promise it shall be the best and last In forging Salop's future don't forget her glorious past, The past that made the future for Salopia. fFrom llze ofd Szzfopian .fong.j R.B. Ulibz Jfatbers' Rlattb 1934 YYe print herewith a report culled from the Montreal Star of this year's Fathers' Match, a most successful function, which took place on February 14th:- The annual hockey match between the Fathers and Selwyn House School team was played on the school rink yesterday afternoon, the school team winning by 8 goals to 6 after a strenuous battle. Following were the teams: Fathers-A. F. Culver, A..-X. Magee, Harold Savage, Bill Chambers, Clarence McCuaig, James Johnston, Magor, Gerald Hanson, Philip Mackenzie, H.C. Flood, Armand Chevalier. School-P.T. Molson, Tomlinson, Hale, Russel, Barclay, Peacock, Hodge, Leslie, Barott, P. Mackenzie, S. Stewart. Fathers scored first but generously consented to cancel the goal when the referee discovered that they were playing an extra man. The first and second periods were very even but in the third Fathers became a bit confused, one of them letting loose a bullet like drive which completely fooled their goaler, an item from which they never recovered. It is understood that after the game, Grandfather RJ. Magor was handed a contract for signature by the Montreal Maroons. For the school all played well, Leslie scored 5 goals and Peacock 3, being ably assisted by other members of the team, who played a fine unsel- fish, passing game. One penalty was handed out to the school team for tripping- the fathers coming through with a clean sheet, showing they have forgotten the dirty work of other days. Mr. Pattisson ably handled the game and Mr. YYanstall afterwards dis- pensed refreshments to the combatants. l33l Sl-.INNYN l!Hl'Nl4 NCIIUUI.

Thanks to spirited innings by Hodge, Kemp, Tetrault and Peacock we made a great bid for victory. Hodge and Kemp put on -ll for the Srd. wicket, and Tetrault and Peacock followed with an exciting stand. The innings closed, however, in the last over of the match for 82 runs. Hodge 22, Kemp 20 and Tetrault 13 were the highest scorers. Tetrault, -l wickets for 47 runs, and Byers, 2 wickets for 36 runs, both bowled steadily against good batting. Kemp took the other wicket at a cost of 7 runs. W'e played two matches with Allan Yale's Park Avenue Xl. W'e were well beaten in the first, but won the second, in which Birks distinguished himself with a hard hit 28, and Lyman made lo which included a six. C. Tetrault captained the team. He has a good knowledge of the game and a Hair for leadership. He worked hard and keenly both on and off the lield. He is a good spin bowler and a very safe and quick fielder. His batting is uncertain,- strong on the leg- side, he also has some very attractive shots to the off, but he does not get over the ball sufhciently and therefore puts up catches. Birks' fielding at Cover point was excellentg he is quick and clean. His batting suffers from impatience, but he has some very nice shc ts and should improve considerably. Byers is a rapidly improving slow bowler and a very sound defensive batg when he learns to put more weight behind his shots, he should make a great many runs. Kemp keeps wicket well, and is very keeng he has a stiff ungainly batting style, but should be able to overcome this. Lyman, who was unfortunately just too old for our School Matches, is a good bowler with a high, easy deliveryg he is a very safe catch and capable of making many runs with a good eye, long reach,and a forcing styleg he must develop quicker foot work. We shall expect to hear that all the above are doing well in their new Cricket fields, and we wish them luck in getting off to a good start. Hodge and Barclay are the foundation for next year's team. Hodge is a very sound bat, with a variety ff strokes. Barclay is stolid rather than attractive, but 'he is very useful and improving. Barott, Peacock, Little, Hingston, Stewart, Kerrigan and Hen- derson all show promise and improved during the season. Henderson is very keen and with more strength might easily develop into a good batsman. Kerrigan has a good eye and is quickg with plenty of practice he should make a great many runs. Sutter The Soccer season like the preceding Cricket season was dogged by unfavourable weather. Owing to the arrival of Winter on October the 25th, we were unable to play our away matches with either Ashbury or Bishops College School. Once again the final of the Sixes --f- Patch ev- Ross-had to be postponed until the Spring. We played three games with L.C.C.g as these were regarded as team building games both sides used spares which is contrary to the regulations governing Association Football. On Friday, October the 2Oth., we played Ashbury College under 15 team in the lNT.A.A.A. grounds. Ashbury won fl-O. The following quotation from the Ashburian is a generous but just summary of the game. W'e were too heavy for our opponents who played an excellent game and were very neat and etticientg their passing and playing together as a team were very much better than ours. l35l Sl-II.WYN HOUSE SCHOOL MAGAZINE On Saturday, October the Zlst., our under 1-l team beat Bishop's College School Junior School -PU. l5.C.S. played a plucky and hard game but were beaten by a faster and mo1'e finished team, Goals were scored by lNIcCuaig 2, Porter l, Norsworthy l. Little was Captain of Football and led his team with enthusiasm and skill. He was a tower of strength to the defence and initiated many attacks. Hodge in Goal was cool and safeg he fully deserved the confidence which the team placed in him. Ross worked hard at back and although his kicking often lacked accuracy he was unsparing in his efforts. Leslie, Ryan and Barclay, the wing halves,marked well and played with great keenness. Peacock at centre-half improved in every game and should be very useful next year. The feature of the side was the forward lineg all tive forwards passed well and in- telligently. Norsworthy and Barott on the wings were fast and centred accurately, Tom- linson at centre was a hard bustling worker who always went straight. Porter and lNIcCuaig are both natural Soccer playersg they work hard, dribble neatly, and kick on their insteps with the knee over the ballg this gives greater power and accuracy than kicking on the toe, but it is a very rare feature of Canadian School football. The following also played: D. McMaster, a very promising forward, he has good ball control, uses his head, and is very neat, P.T. Molson, a clear headed reliable goal- keeperg P. hlackenzie, very hard working but is apt to let his enthusiasm run away with the control of the ball and his legsg A. Scrimger, a hard-working and very plucky half-back, S. Stewart, a hard keen worker, but he does not realise the importance of playing in his position, R. Main, a fast outside, he was too inclined to .eave his wing and so crowd the inside forwards. Wing forwards must stay right out on their wings, otherwise they spoil all passing movements and slow up the game for innumerable touches . FOOTBALL SIXES, 1933.

Z1 'liberal Clfhuratiun Here is a quotation from Huxley's lay sermon on a liberal education, which, both in literary form and in content, is surely hard to beat:- That man, I think, has had a liberal education who has been so trained in youth that his body is the ready servant of his will, and does with ease and pleasure all the work that, as a mechanism, it is capable ofg whose intellect is a clear, cold, logic engine, with all its parts of equal strength and in smooth working orderg ready, like a steam-engine, to be turned to any kind of work, and spin the gossamers as well as forge the anchors of the mindg Whose mind is stored with a knowledge of the great and fundamental truths of Nature and of the laws of her operationsg one who, no stunted ascetic, is full of life and Ere, but whose passions are trained to come to heel by a vigorous will, the servant of a tender conscience, who has learned to love all beauty, whether of Nature or of art, to hate all vileness, and to respect others as himself. l '27 l l SI-iI,XX'YY IIUVSF.

The Selwt-I team fm' theQe games was Cillllf llxl FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 1933-1934 posed mostly of those who later formed the under 1-1' team. They were very much lighter and younger than their opponents and received little support from the few older members so that they were outplayed everywhere. On Saturday Feb. 24th. the under l-1 team played St. Albans at the Ccliseum. The School won 5--1. St. Albans scored in the first period. Stewart, Hale and Peacock scored for the School in the Znd period, in which St. Albans scored once. In the last period St. Albans scored twice, and Tomlinson and Stewart for the School. A close game, the result of which was in doubt until the end. In the return match played at Brockville on Saturday March 3rd the School won another close game 2-l. Stewart and Tomlinson scored for the School in the lst and 3rd periods respectively, St. Albans scored in the middle period. Molson in goal was especially good in this game. On Wednesday Feb. 28th we beat L.C.C. at the Coliseum 3-0. The School had the better of the play throughout. Stewart scored on a good pass from Tom- linson, Peacock and Hale scored the other two goals. All the scoring was in the 2nd period. -CHARACTFRSf L. TOMLINSON, QCapt.j. The mainstay of the team. He worked hard, cheerfully and unselfishly in attack and defence. He was wholly responsible for the team becoming as good as it did. P.T. MOLSON. Developed into a very reliable goal-keeper, cool and confident. VV. HALE. Worked very hard at times. He checked well and assisted in a number of goals with good passes. S. STEWART. Improved in every game. He skates well and is a persistent checker. J. PEACOCK. He hasa good shot and poke-check, but in spite of these he is better as a defence player than a forward because he dislikes hurrying. J. HODGE. A slow skater, he made up for his lack of speed by using his brains to outwit the opponents. R. JOHNSTON. A slow skater, he worked hard and could be relied upon to check. P. lVIACRENZlE, R. TVIAIN and H. NORSXK'OR'fHX' also played, and as they are keen and try hard they should be very useful next year. VV. BARCLAY, P. Rcssizi. and P. BAROTT played in the under 15 team. BAROTT was handicapped by not being able to play for some time at the beginning of the seasong Barclay and Russel did their best, but they are both very slow and somewhat unsteady skaters. 'A FIVES WVith no lack of good ice ' Fives ' were played with great regularity and a number of hard fought games were played. Leslie, Peacock, Tomlinson and Hale had the most successful teams and although at this time the schedule is not completed the odds are slightly in favour of Leslie finishing Hrst. LESLIEYS FIVE!

Tetrault and Pollack are both on their House teams for Rugby, Tetrault On the Junior, and Pollack on the Senior QSeaton's Housel. All are fagging. They are also playing some hockey. During the Raster term, Leacock was moved up a form. Arthur Campbell is in the Sixth, plays on a Rugby team, and belongs to the Toronto Ski Club.

R'I-1YIIiW OF R IQYIIQWS We have received, for review, a copy of the Ylrh. issue of the Selwyn House School Magazine. The new cover is a delightful improvement and the abandonment of the double column adds much to the appearance of the letter-press, but the stiH' cover and heavy glazed paper still oder the same regrettable obstacles to handling and mailing. Pictures and printing are admirable, the former being unusually free from the idiotic facial distortions of which the photographed youth is capable. Typographic errors are very few and unimportant. Abundant, and well-used, space is given to Scouting and Sports f- a little overdone perhaps, but doubtless Papa gloats over reading that little Arthur shews line ball or puck control or that Percy did I1Ot hiccup when he renewed his Scout pledge. The literary lsave the mark lj part shows advance. The essays, if somewhat smacking of the Fncyclopaedia, are painstaking and grammatical and the rhymed pieces are creditable to youngsters of this age and are not devoid of wit. A rambling paper on Reading has a few clearly-expressed platitudes but the more pretentious paragraphs clearly point to parental help. VVe are glad to notice the absence lfollowing the best traditionsl of any advertising, especially of the condescending type Compliments of ,. some famous Company or Firm, which can expect no adequate return for its reluctant, if charitable, cheque. Old Boys' news and recent academic successes are duly noted. On the last page is what purports to be a review Cin somewhat questionable tastel of the Magazine itselff' a rather needless llippancy which will deceive no one. We wish our young contemporary every success in the future.
