SFLWYN HOUSF. SCHOOL MAGAZINE Heward Stikeman is President of the McGill l'niversitv Players' Club, and has successfully piloted that organization through two major productions. OBITUARY lt is with the deepest regret that we note the deaths of.- Dr. H. M. Little, father of Pat, Michael, and Bryan Little, and a leading doctor of Montreal. Ian Nichol, brother of Cecil and Tryon Nichol, un- fortunately killed in a distressing accident in British Columbia. Miss M. Gascoigne, late Principal of the Study School for Girls, Montreal. Dr. W.L. Grant, late Headmaster of Upper Canada College, Toronto, after a distinguished career. Clarence V. McCuaig, father of Ian and Eric, well- known stockbroker of this city. Dr R. H. Craig, father of Bob Craig, noted surgeon of this city. lt has been a pleasure to the lfditor, or perhaps we should say the Compiler, of this edition ofthe magazine, to undertake the task this year. This has been lightened enorm- ouslv by the boys themselves who have voluntarily submitted a much larger number of contributions than usual. This is a most encouraging feature. We have explained to them that it would have been impossible to print everything submitted, but we can assure those who do not sec their efforts in print that the latter have been appreciated just as much as those of successful contributors. Against the names of iz!! who have tried to assist we have an extra mark chalked up l livery bov who has sent in any article, however humble, has done something to help the School. 'l'hat's the great thing, and the right spirit. To you all, not forgetting the Old Boys who have helped us, very many thanks. l+l

The Bamtts Victor Ludorum Barry Ryan DISCIPLINE I do not believe that boys can be induced to apply themelyes with vigour, and, what is so much more diflicult, with perseverance, to dry and irksome studies, by the sole force of persuasion and soft words. Much must be done and much must be learnt by children, for which rigid discipline and known liability to punishment are indispensable as means. It is, no doubt, a very laudable eH'ort in modern teaching to render as much as possible of what the young are required to learn easy and interesting to them. But when this principle is pushed to the length of not requiring them to learn anything but what has been made easy and interesting, one ofthe chief objects of education is sacrificed.
