SELWYN HOUSE SCHOOL MAGAZINE to this issue of the magazine. Dr. McGreer was our Guest of Honour at the Academic Prize-Giving of the school in November, and we acknowledge with thanks our double indebtedness to his kindness. We should like, by way of conclusion, to thank all who in any way have contributed to the success of this magazine-particularly members of the staff for their kindly help. MR. G. MILLER HYDE When the opening assembly of the school year was addressed by Mr. G. Miller Hyde, chairman of the Board of Governors. the headmaster referred to him as the moving spirit, but for whose dynamic determination and enthusiasm the construction of the school hall might well have had to be indefinitely postponed. We did not realise then what a great tax his ceaseless labours for us and for others was placing upon his health, and we were gravely dismayed to hear of his serious operation and his consequent decision to relinquish the chairmanship of the Board. In voicing our deep thanks to Mr. Hyde for his leadership of the Board from its inception and our continued pleasure in his steady recovery, we are happy in the thought that, as now Honorary Chairman of the Board, he may keep in con- stant and close touch with the administration of the school. It was a matter of great satisfaction to Mr. Hyde and all other friends of the school that Mr. A. R. Gillespie, formerly vice-chairman, was persuaded to accept the chairmanship and Mr. T. H. P. Molson the vice-chairmanship of the Board of Governors. l8l
