SHAWNIGAN LAKE SCHOOL MAGAZINE Editorial HP HE incorporation of the school dates from February 15, - 1928. The various documents were duly signed, witnessed and registered, and the school became an entity of its own. It has prospered of recent years, and this step is one which we all hope will be of ultimate benefit to the school. As we become larger so we become less concentrated, but there is a limit to our aims and objects as far as numerical size is concerned. A staff as loyal and co-operative as ours has been in the past few years must compel success, but there are many obstacles looming ahead, which can only be overcome by a continuance of the same loyalty and unswerving devotion to service. Applications for entrance for September were so numerous that we had to refuse many of them, and the Governors are now considering the advisability of increasing our accommo- dation for next September. We are grading an additional two acres for playing fields and intend to build tennis courts of our own this spring. The most important step forward this year was the build- ing of the Chapel. This was dedicated by the Bishop on July 1, having been finished with the assistance of many friends who have given either their financial help or valuable pres- ents. The Art School is flourishing, and a much needed side of school life is being catered for, owing to the unselfish and generous work which has been given by Mr. Rose.

SHAWNIGAN LAKE SCHOOL MAGAZINE THE Bishop of Columbia held a Confirmation Service in the Parish Church on March 14, when 23 candidates from the school were confirmed. The Pancake Greeze was held on Feb. 21, 1928 (Shrove Tuesday), the winner being Merritt, from Form III. The members of Forms IV., V., VI. and VII. were fortun- ate in being able to see the Stratford-on-Avon Players in The Merchant of Venice and Julius Caesar, in Victoria during December. Various lectures and concerts have been given in the Big School during the year. Our thanks are due to Mr. Lukin Johnston for his interesting lecture on The Peace River Dis- trict, also to Mr. Hutchison for his moving picture show. The thanks of the school are due also to Mr. Willis for his kindness in giving us lantern and moving picture shows during the winter terms. The very handsome gift of a radio from Mr. R. J. Cromie has given much pleasure to the school in general ; this is not the first kindness we have received from Mr. Cromie, as those who heard the Headmaster ' s speech at the end of the summer term will remember. A very handsome elk head now adorns the Big School, thanks to the generosity of Mr. J. P. D. Malkin. Two badminton matches were arranged with South Cow- ichan, and although we lost on both occasions, the games proved very beneficial to the standard of play. On Nov. 17th the Calvert Trio gave a Schubert concert in the Big School. The school is fortunate in possessing a new electric grama phone, which is not only of value in our musical education, but also provides excellent dance music when required.
