The S1141 Qlluh This year, through the untiring efforts of Nlr. Wiseman, a Schzizil Ski Club was opened at St. Adele. The Club has proved itself a decided success, and this fact has been supplemented by excellent ski-ing conditions. ln the club house fourteen people can sleep comfortably, and charges for food and rent are very reason- able. Through the kind generosity ofhlrs. Dobell, the Club has been presented with a ping-pong table, which provides a great deal of enjoyment. hlembers make frequent cross- country trips to St. Marguerite and other ski-ing centres. Having briefly described the Club, I should like to extend to Mr. Wiiseman the thanks and appreciation of all the Club members for all the work he has done in organizing the Selwyn House Ski Club and for giving its members so much pleasure. The house has been gaily decorated with ski posters from all parts of lfurope, and proudly displays a 1261

FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 1938 -1939 large sign over the front door painted in the School colours: Selwyn House Ski Club. Many contributions by members have added greatly to the pleasure of all who stay there. A radio, gramophone, lamps, and other articles of vertu are among the many gifts of Club members. .-X debt of gratitude is owed to Mlle Bernadette Desjardins, whose ability to produce hot meals at all hours for any number of hungry skiers was greatly admired and appreciated. Altogether the Club has been a great success, and l feel sure that it will prove more worthy of praise in the years to come. The Club members were: Bill Fleming, Brian little, David Culver, Dick Gold- bloom, lfddie Ballon, Bruce Ramsey. ,Timmy Thompson, Bill Nlason, Bart Sutherland, Terence Flood. Uick Birks, and a number of guests stayed at the Club during the season. R. li., Form o. QBur Trip to the Seigninrp Qlluh W' in ,,,-A U ' 4 f-...z rf 'ig It was had luck that the Selwyn House week end for skiing at the Seigniory Club should have fallen upon the llth of February. It just so happened that on the Friday night before our week end, at about 3 o'clock, it started to rain in Montebello, and by the time the merry boys alighted light-heartedly from the special car on the Ottawa train, there was a two inch crust to cope with. Immediately sampling the crust their hopes fell slightly, but you wouldn't have known it as they passed through the large gates and shouted their greeting to the fur-capped policeman who is continually on guard. :Xs the boys went up the long drive to the Chateau, those who hadn't been there before marvelled at its size and architecture, and as they entered and saw its great hexagonal fireplace, they were completely overcome, and went towards their rooms either humming or talking furiously. After literally dumping their clothes into drawers, they either went for a little gossip into some other boy's room, or untied their skis, and those boys who knew the club better, proceeded to the billiard and ping-pong room until lunch. :Xt lunch they were served with a most delicious meal and afterwards were told to report to the Vlth fairway. There we realized the evtent of our skiing, it would have to be confined to the roads or extremely well packed hills. We were packed into one of the Club's trucks and taken up to one of the lodge huts and set OH' into a downhill run of about three quarters of a mile on the road. The winner of this event was Bill Fleming, with David Culver and Bill Strong not far behind. In the meanwhile the ,luniors held their down hill run, and P. Dobell came first, with Chase and M. Sutherland in a tie for second. After skiing home, we heard rumours of a toboggan slide, and found it behind the Papineau Club, and went down it. It was quite a thrill, although I may say it was not nearly as thrilling as the old cne. ln the meanwhile, many l37l
