Shawnigan Lake School Magazine « CRICKET » THE Cricket eleven enjoyed a very succ essful season with six wins, two defeats and one match drawn. Both the bowling and fielding were well up to the standard of previous years, and the bat- ting proved much stronger, although no member of the side was very consistent ; there always seemed to be several to rise to the occasion when necessary. Newton, Fleck, Day i, Cooper, Day ii, and Torland, all made scores at different times which Avere decisive factors in the side ' s victories. With eight members of last year ' s side, including Newton, who has led the team for two years, we may look forward to an even more successful season in 1938. SHAWNIGAN LAKE SCHOOL vs. COWICHAN C. C.

Shawnigan Lake School Magazine LIBRARY NOTES DURING the past year the Library has grown considerably in size. This has been due partly to a large number of books pre- sented to the Library by various members of the staff and boys, and partly to books purchased by the Library itself. James and Glen Niven presented about sixty books between them when they left for England in the spring. The practice of taking a termly subscription has been continued, and from the funds thus raised about forty books have been pur- chased during the year. Notable amongst the authors are: Gibbs, Kipling, Yates, Taffrail, Buchan, Sabatini, Oppenheim, Wallace, Masefield, Nicholls, Wren, Hay, Packard, Curwood, Christie, Sapper, Wodehouse, Hilton, and many other of the popular authors of to-day. As in other years the Library is being controlled by a committee of two boys from each House and several members of the staff who have kindly helped us. This committee is in charge of the purchase of books, library rules, etc. That the Library is widely used is shown by the fact that it is always croAvded, and over a thousand books were taken out for private reading during the past year. We would like to extend our thanks to Mr. Ellis, who so admirably ran the Library for seven years ; and also to Mr. Twite, who has kindly taken over the task of keeping an eye on it now that Mr. Ellis has left.
