SHAWNIGAN LAKE SCHOOL LIBRARY SHAWNIGAN LAKE SCHOOL MAGAZINE Z - 30 NINETEEN HUNDRED AND FORTY-ONE O u K A ! O o z X o n [ 4 ] Shawnigan Lake School Magazine EDITORIAL FROM the beginning of the War we have been consoling ourselves with the comfortable reflection that it cannot happen here, and even since the entry of Japan into th e War we have been buoyed up with the hope, amounting to conviction, that it will not do so. Nevertheless the blackout was taken seriously and strictly ob- served. In our town the garish signs of our commercial prosperity disappeared from the darkened streets : in the country we shut our- selves in with diminished lights and reflected on the baffling prob- lem of a mad world intent on its own destruction. Two nights of semi-darkness, of lighted rooms with darkened corridors, and ink- black dormitories were sufficient to convince us of the need of light in the material side of life; but now that the blackout is lifted, and the unconsidered trifles of black cloth or old blinds have been returned to attic or basement, and the wayfarer on the country roads is once more guided by the friendly illumination of his neigh- bour ' s house, the unsolved problem returns. It is not the question whether it can or cannot happen here, but why it has happened at all. Why, after two thousand years of pain- ful struggle upward, has the whole of human progress to be cast into the melting-pot of this terrible war? Neither time nor space here serves for an anlysis of the causes of mankind ' s failure and tragedy: nor indeed do Ave claim that spiritual light, which no blackout can hide, and by which the seer can make plain the answer to these dark riddles. Yet something can be said on the subject of personal responsibility and individual duty. In the School every selfish act, every unsocial misdemeanour countenanced by others is a hindrance to the upward progress of the whole community, whereas on the other hand, every duty, how- ever small, unselfishly performed, is a contributory cause of better- ment for all of its members. So it is, also, in the world outside the School bounds. [ R 1 Shawnigan Lake School Magazine School Notes WE MUCH regret to record the death of Mr. Horace T. Raven- hill, an old friend of the School and the original donor of the Efficiency Cup. Our most grateful thanks to Mrs. Heme for her gift to the School of the Toddington Vase which was won by the Royal Chester Rowing Club with Mr. T. W. Heme, Stroke, at the Tewkesbury Regatta in 1893. This Cup will be an Inter-House Challenge Cup for Rowing. For many years now Dr. B. E. Mckells has generously given his time and interest to the School, making a weekly visit as School Dentist and devoting part of the day to lectures and help to the Photographic Club. We very much regret that circumstances make it impossible for Dr. Mckells to continue. It is always sad when we lose touch with a man whose interest in the School is idealistic. Mr. T. A. Piddington left at the end of the Summer Term driving through to Montreal where he joined the R.C.A.F. We also regret the loss of another real friend of the School in the death of George Wright, who commenced his career by running awa} r from Malvern to tight in the Matabele War at the age of fifteen and ended as a columnist and editorial writer. His wide knowledge and reading enabled him to write pithy comments and editorials which made the Vancouver News-Herald worth reading. We have had visits and extremely interesting talks from Sir Lawrence Bragg, Mr. Geoffrey Shakespeare, Captain Douglas Fisher, R.N. We congratulate Jim Mcintosh on obtaining his B.Sc. (Engin- eering) at the California Institute of Technology. We congratulate W. G. H. Roaf on being promoted to Lieutenant- Colonel. Chapel Notes DURING the year Chapel services have been held as usual with an excellent attendance at the early Communion Services. Mitten and Hughes major have been appointed Servers. The Bishop of Columbia was with us for Confirmation on March 23rd, when ten boys and twenty-three girls from Strathcona [ 6 ] Shawnigan Lake School Magazine were confirmed. The Dean, the Very Rev. S. H. Elliott, delivered the address. The beautiful flowers at that service were given by Mrs. P. A. Woodward in memory of her son. Services have been held in the Chapel on Saints ' Day and Remembrance Day and on several occasions the Rev. E. M. Willis has found it possible to be with us. At Christmas a very beautiful Carol service was held in the Chapel and throughout the year, under Miss Lonsdale ' s guidance, the choir has given us some very fine music. A number of new choir surplices were purchased this summer. On Speech Day, a service was held in the Chapel at 5.00 p.m., at which the Bishop was the preacher. It has been possible to send substantial donations from the Chapel collections this year to the Missionary Society, the Legion War Services, the Poppy Fund and to St. Barnabas. Speech Day SPEECH DAY was held on June 27th and, this year, only parents were invited. After the Water Sports and tea, prizes were given aAvay by Captain R. H. Ley. The Leaving Service was held at five o ' clock in the Chapel, the Address being given by the Right Reverend the Lord Bishop of Columbia. PRIZE LIST, JUNE, 1941 Form VI — D. N.

[ 7 ] Shawnigan Lake School Magazine Examinations ONE boy, John Lev, sat for the Naval Examination and passed into Dartmouth. Thirteen boys took the McGill Matriculation Examination in Algebra and twelve passed. One boy was accepted at Toronto University, one at the University of British Columbia, and two passed the McGill Junior Matriculation. Some of the individual marks for the McGill Matriculation may be of interest. Over eighty per cent was obtained in Algebra, Geometry, Chem- istry, Physics, Greek, German and History. Photography THIS year the Camera Club has been the scene of varied activi- ties. Besides the regular type of work, some of the twelve members have been doing portraiture, others colour work, and some experimenting with various toning processes. We have several beginners who are learning the fundamentals from those more experienced. Many minor improvements have been made but we still lack sufficient funds for an en larger. The onl} T one available is privately owned and is for miniatures only. We have lately resumed the movies and have had some excellent films which we think were enjoyed by all. — Dean Johnson. Library Notes THE attendance at the Library has been very good this year, and we feel that the painstaking efforts of R. H. McCleary and his fellow librarians to increase the popularity of the Library were not in vain. We have acquired many books through the Library Fund which have been very popular. We wish to thank Mrs. W. E. Morres, Messrs. J. Forman, G. B. Benson, A. M. Wood and W. McC. Ewing for the books that they so kindly gave us. In the past we have been disappointed with the popularity of the blood and thunder novels. However, we are now glad to say that there has been a definite trend towards better reading in the past year. We hope that it will continue. [ 8 ] Shawnigan Lake School Magazine Exchanges We gratefully acknowledge the receipt of the following contem- poraries : Glenalmond Chronicle. Vernon Preparatory School Chronicle. The College Times. The Ashburian. St. Peter ' s Chronicle, Cambridge, New Zealand. St. Margaret ' s School, Victoria. Music Notes MOST forms in the School are now able to study Music Appre- ciation, thanks to the Carnegie Set. The Orchestra is still in existence and now that we have the big Bass Fiddle repaired, we have a full complement of strings. The Choir has done a good deal of hard work and has sung several anthems, including one chorus from the Brahms Requiem, Blessed Are They That Mourn, and a Chorale from Bach ' s Christ- mas Oratorio. Some questions on Music are now included in the British Colum- bia Matriculation Full History Course, so Form VI B are getting a good deal of use from the Music Set. Milestones 4 4 7K T HAT do the Seniors talk about in their Saturday morning VV session? Everything, I replied. Then there is no limitation imposed on the choice of subjects? None whatever. Here are some of the titles. See for yourself. He read slowly: ' The Alps ' , ' Freak Ships ' , ' Snake Bites ' , ' Lie Detector ' , ' Douglas Bomber ' , ' Calgary ' , ' Great Swamp ' — Here I interrupted to point out that the Great Swamp in ques- tion Avas six hundred miles from the headwaters of the Mle — a vast wilderness covering twenty-five thousand square miles and inhabited by a race of very tall men. How interesting! he replied. Yes, these natives live almost solely by catching swamp fish, and when they are too lazy to fish, which is often, they live on soup made entirely from swamp grass. [ 9 ] Shawnigan Lake School Magazine ' All! These tales of primitive peoples are always fascinating. But take this title now. What could anyone say that is enlighten- ing about ' Fish Traps at Sooke ' ? Now, I said, the mechanically-minded boy delights in a sub- ject like this. He describes the construction of the traps, the prin- ciples on which they work; the duties of the watchman stationed at the trap, and the activities of the men working on the scow in clearing or lifting the trap. He takes us ashore where other workers ' butcher ' the fish and tar and wash the netting. Finally he lists the names, relative sizes and importance of the different kinds of fish. Excellent ! said my friend. And do all speakers acquit them- selves equally well? Sometimes, I said, the speakers are ill-prepared or nervous. But this latter fault is being eliminated by practice in impromptu speaking. This term we have had very good talks from Ewing, Wheeler, Koerner and Brockhurst. Cadet Corps THE Cadet Corps was organized towards the beginning of this term primarily as a Civilian Defence Corps for the purpose of giving the boys elementary training in signalling and first aid ; so that they may be of use to the civilian authorities in case of a national emergency of any description. Later we applied for recognition and became one of the widely organized Military Cadet Corps. Training up to now has been confined to squad drill, signalling and range practice. The efficiency so far attained in all these branches of training is due to the great keenness of the Cadets who have given up practically all their spare time to drills and classes. SIGNALLING RESULTS so far have been fairly satisfactory and are now in the initial stages of forming No. 1 and No. 2 signalling sec- tions. By the end of the summer term the signalling sections should be a credit to the Corps. It is gratifying to see that indi- idual boys are making good progress. RIFLE CLUB RANGE WORK has improved and the Club should produce a first class team. Members have won 14 Bronze, 3 Silver and 1 Gold medal this season, with several almost completed. This brings the total for two seasons to 40 Bronze, 10 Silver and 2 Gold. The Curwen Shield for 1939 was won by R. H. McCleary and for 1940 by C. D. Johnson. [ 10 ] Shawnigan Lake School Magazine House Notes RIPLEY ' S Dear Mr. Ripley: Last rear we, of Ripley ' s House, announced our intention of letting you know of all events which have taken place this year, appertaining to the House. This promise we have faithfully kept. First Ave will deal with the Easter Term. In Soccer, the House did extraordinarily well. In the inter- house competition, Lake ' s House Avas split up into two teams while we entered one. This team was defeated but once, and so emerged in first place in the league. Strange to relate, when it came to a showdown with Lake ' s House team, we beat them 2-1 in a very exciting game. Then followed the boxing and fencing; the former we won but in the latter Ave had to be content Avith second place. The folloAving boys in Ripley ' s won their respective weights in boxing : Ley ( Heavy- weight), Hickey (Welter), Macdonald I (Fly). The results of the sports Avere unfortunately not very good, Lake ' s House winning most of the events. This, however, Ave need hardly say, Avas not through lack of trying. The Summer Term brought continued success to the House. In the Cricket League, the house split up into two teams, namely, A and B. B effected a very close second place but A, being mostly composed of rather more inexperienced cricketers, alas, came last. These two teams on joining forces, however, became, on the Avhole, a pretty fair all-round team. We beat Gro r es ' fairly easily, and after a desperate struggle Avith Lake ' s, emerged victorious and thus regained the Cricket Cup. Considering that the bulk of Lake ' s House Avas composed of First Eleven men, our performance was quite creditable. Credit for this success Avas due to the boAvling of Forrest and Huntington 1 1, and to the batting of Reid, Frank, Mac- donald I and Huntington I. As Avell as being Captain of the house team, Wheeler captained the School Eleven. Hickey Avas aAvarded his School Cricket colours and Forrest and Huntington I received their House Colours, as well as playing on the First Eleven. The House also shone in the Water Sports by winning the fifty- yards relay and coming second in the Diving. ! This term the House had to combine with Groves ' to supply enough opposition for a far-stronger Lake ' s House team. HoAvever, five of our boys, Wheeler, Duke, Hickey, Reid, Forrest and Roenisch [ 11 1 Shawnigan Lake School Magazine played for the First Fifteen, Reid and Hickey being awarded their School Colours. Wilson I, Ely I, Ramus and Frank won their House Colours for fine play on the Second Fifteen. Our success in sports was due mainly to the magnificent con- quer or die spirit of the House, while our successes in the class- room go to show that we combine brawn with brain. We now come to the scholastic successes, of which there were a considerable number. The following headed their respective Forms : Ward (Upper Fifth), Hickey (Lower Fifth), Macdonald I (Fourth), Collison (Third), Hopkins (Second). Ward won the Bishop ' s Read- ing Prize and Hickey the Efficiency Cup for the Summer Term. Frank and Wheeler passed their McGill Junior Matriculation Exam- ination. Of those boys who left during the past year, Nixon is in the R.C.A.F., Baker is at Victoria College, and Ley is at Dartmouth after having passed his Navy Examination. Due to your kindness in helping the financial status of the House, we have been able to make many improvements in the Senior Common Room, such as light-shades, tables, chairs, a notice board and a large and comfortable couch. The House is directed by Wheeler and Duke, the two School Prefects, the former also being Head Boy. They are well backed up by Hickey and Huntington I as House Prefects. We think you will agree with us when we say that we have up- held the great traditions of Ripley ' s House and will continue to do so. The House joins me in wishing you the very best for the coming year. — Your Ripley ' s House Correspondent. LAKE ' S Faced with the command that we had to write the House Notes we immediately fled to the Reference Library to find out the various techniques of overcoming the difficulty. We read notes from all houses over a number of years. At first we met straight-forward remarks, but lately we have noticed a trend in other quarters to write letters, plays and other fantastic effusions that are passed off as House Notes. We have decided to state our facts without trying to embellish them with flowery effects. Early in the Easter term the Headmaster announced the engage- ment of our Housemaster Mr. Twite to our House Matron Miss [ 12 ] Shawnigan Lake School Magazine Shuckburgh, who became Mrs. Twite in the Summer Holidays. In honour of their engagement the House held a formal dance on 31st January in the Big School. We entered two teams in the inter-house Soccer League. Our A team was second and the B team third. In an informal match our combined team was unable to beat the Ripley ' s team. Having played as two units for the whole term we found we did not have enough time to mould ourselves into one truly combined force. Throughout the term our Fencers were usually found in the gym practising parries and ripostes. Their perseverance was rewarded by their striking victory in the Inter-house Fencing Tournament. However Ave were not so successful in the Boxing Competition, probably because of our lack of heavyweights and flyweights. We had many entrants in the middleweights who put up a very good showing. The land sports were held towards the end of the term. We were the only team to try to adhere to a training plan. On the field we were often ridiculed for our apparent lack of effort, but we h ad the last laugh when it was seen that our wind, on the crucial day, was so much more superior to that of our opponents. We won every senior event except the 100 yards, in which we were second. The intermediates and juniors were not quite as successful as the Seniors but won quite a number of events. We gained such a lead in the land sports that we could not have lost the Sports Cup even if we had been last in every Swimming Event. In the Summer Term we entered two teams in the Cricket League. The A team was second and the B team fourth. In the House Matches we reached the finals but lost by a few runs. We were fairly successful in the Swimming, Avinning the Senior 220 and the diving. The Intermediates and Juniors Avon many valuable points. At the prize-giving, Johnson received the Efficiency Cup for the Michaelmas Term and Layard for the Easter Term. ' We retained the Sports and Rugger Cups. Love and McBride Avon the prizes for Remove A and RemoA e B. This year will be noted for the many improvements made on the Common Room. Thanks to the generosity of manv parents, Avhose kindness is greatly appreciated, we noAV have added to the comfort of the Common Room with— a carpet, sofa, radio, small couch and table and numerous accessories. We doubt if the old boys Avho return to the school will be able to believe that such a great improve- ment could be possible in such a short time. [ 13 ] Shawnigan Lake School Magazine D. M. Anderson and D. Vaughan left ns to join the R.C.A.F. and A. M. Wood left to go to Trinity College, Toronto. This year we have three School Prefects: Lake, Layard and Ewing. They are ably assisted by Gandossi and Johnson, house prefects. We have eight members of the House playing regularly on the 1st XV of these Layard, Mitten and Johnson have been awarded School Colours and K. P. Hughes, House Colours. With so much talent in the House we hope to be able to enjoy a very successful year. GROVES ' We returned this year to find that our former Housemaster, Mr. Piddington, had left to join the R.C.A.F. Our present Housemaster is Mr. Cedric Lonsdale. Last year our house matron was Miss Milne, but she has been ably followed by Mrs. Coope. We were sorry to see that four of our Senior members had left, but the vacancy of second house prefect has been filled by Macdonald to aid Larsen in running the house. Groves ' House boys gave their full support to the new Cadet Corps formed this year by their Housemaster, Mr. Cedric Lonsdale. We are proud to mention that both the buglers came from our House and that a few of our members have shown distinction at signalling. In the Rag Concert, although ours was a last minute effort, we seemed to draw more laughs than any other skit in the show. On Speech Day, Brockhurst won the sixth form prize and Larsen Avon the Sportsmanship Cup. Larsen, Charleson and Anderson I played on the first cricket eleven last year and Charleson and Anderson I won their house cricket colours. With the aid of the above members we managed to win the inter-house cricket league. In the Sports last Spring, although our seniors and juniors both came second, our intermediates managed to come out on top. These same intermediates, namely, Deveson, Balme, Ling I and Stainsby brought honour to the House by good play on both the Colts ' soccer and cricket teams. Since the House had a good stock of enthusiastic boys it is to be hoped that Groves 1 will gain many further successes in the future. [ 14 ] Shawnigan Lake School Magazine The Rag Concert THE Rag Concert is like a dinner of many courses: all are good even if some do not mix. Perhaps the best, dish in the varied feast was provided by Remove B who acted a scene from The Mer- chant of Venice. This was done very sincerely and convincingly, and was ' appropriately costumed. Hitler took his fourth bad ribbing in recent years and should be absolutely outside the pale by this time. He is, confidentially, not expected to recover from the attacks made upon him by the IV Form. Groves ' House brought great laughter as they paraded on stage disguised as spectators at a football game. We were led to believe that everything is discussed at a rugger match excepting the game itself. The VII and VI Forms combined to give a good burlesque. Their Althorpe Case was reminiscent of Stephen Leacock ' s sly digs at the detective story. Not to be outdone in this regard, VI B Form presented their version of life in the Army, complete to the last detail and including the subversive activities of a female spy. Lake ' s House maintained their reputation for impromptu as they cheerfully organized a truth or consequences programme. Some members of the audience were coerced on stage but they res- ponded nobly. The Juniors, too, provided their share of the fun as they romped through a piece dealing with a business prognosticator surrounded by an over-zealous and somewhat incompetent stall of assistants. Blackout I T WAS on Monday, December 8th, while we Avere at Prep in the classroom block, that a boy came running to tell us of our first blackout. The Prep room has no blinds, but, acting upon a wise suggestion, Wheeler took us into the lecture-room next door, which was pro- vided with blinds used to darken the room while lantern slides are shown. It was close in there, but, at least, it did the trick. But, when Prep was over and we had to leave our curtained and lighted security, Ave Avere doubly lost in the novel blackness outside. We stumbled along, through puddles, into trees, into the Avail r is ] Shawnigan Lake School Magazine around the Chapel and more than one of us took advantage of the darkness for a forbidden short-cut across the lawn. At last we were safely in the school building, but mysterious blackness still engulfed us. We groped our way along the wall and into the changing room ; then counted each locker till we came to our own, and felt around for our slippers. Then, on to Ripley ' s senior common room whose windows were most deeoratively dressed in red blankets. Most of the seniors were here assembled and you can imagine the noise, with gramophones trying to outdo the radio and its last minute blackout directions. Soon came nine o ' clock and bed time. Through blackened cor- ridors we crept, sometimes meeting the sinister red aura of a camou- flaged electric torch which served to reveal a ghostly silhouette, sometimes tripping over a corner stair and thinking Ave had broken a pair of most indispensable glasses. In our dormitory no one had a flashlight, so we felt for our beds and changed in the dim light which came through a towel-wrapped light bulb. All the same, we did get into the right beds, even though a few counterpanes were left unfolded. What an opportunity it was to go to bed without washing ! Next day Mr. Boniface and others were very busy with large rolls of tar paper and strips of wood. The common rooms, Dining Room, and the corridors were all swathed in funeral black. It reminded one disturbingly of the Black Hole of Calcutta, but no one died, and we all felt much more safe and much more patriotic. At night, a patrol of boys circled the School searching for guilty lights, but all had been discreetly darkened. It must be confessed that we were glad when our blackout was cancelled until further notice. The experience had been mysteri- ously interesting but uncomfortable. But, the tar paper is still in the common room windows. Japs, ' beware! r r [ 16 ] Shawnigan Lake School Magazine Cricket ALTHOUGH the Season was shorter than usual the general stand- l ard of cricket in the School was well maintained. The First Eleven played six matches, winning two and losing three, while one game was drawn. The season produced an unusual number of close finishes. Against Victoria, with one wicket to fail, we needed three runs to win when stumps were drawn. University School beat us by the narrow margin of seven runs at Shawnigan, and by one wicket in the return match and Brentwood scored the winning run against us only in the last over. The team was young and lacked the experience necessary to give of their best in a close finish. The prospects for this year look promising as all but two of last year ' s players will be available. 1st CRICKET ELEVEN, 1941 Back row: I. M. Forrest, J. R. Huntington, R. A. Mitten, D. Vaughan, J.

Several individual pools Avere held in the Easter term and the Inter-House competition was keenly contested. It is hoped that the B. C. Championship will be revived this year. If it is, it will be held at Shawnigan. Association Football ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL, as usual, was played regularly in the Easter Term. The standard of play is gradually improving under the stimulus of competition. The first XI played two matches against an Officers ' Team from the 2nd Battalion, Canadian Scot- tish Regiment, winning them both. The Colts XI also had a suc- cessful season, winning both their games against Glenlvon School. But once again the main interest centred around the Inter-House League, which produced some exciting games.

Although it was known that the team would be very light, most of the players had been in the side last year, and it was hoped that by combination and teamwork they would be able to make up for their lack of pounds. But from the start, minor injuries and ail- ments dogged the team, interfering with training and practice. No member of the team played for the whole season and on no occasion were we able to field a full side. But, in spite of the fact that we did not win a game and only succeeded in securing one draw, the team showed plenty of spirit in every match and our opponents had to light for every point. The forwards in particular deserve much credit. They more than held their own against considerably heavier packs ; and if the backs had possessed the combination and thrust which had been expected of them, the record of the season might have been very different. • |v 1P 1st RUGBY FIFTEEN Back row: M.

[ 25 ] Shawnigan Lake School Magazine Old Boys ' Notes My Dear Old Boys : It is difficult to know what to say to you this year, scattered as you are over all the continents and seas. I have had many interest- ing letters from you and many delightful visits and, living here in the tall timbers, it is interesting to hear at first hand of your doings. For instance, one of you is in the Bomber Ferry Command, an American in the Ambulance Corps in Africa, one of you meeting three Old Boys in a destroyer in England, four Old Boys in a Cana- dian warship on the Pacific, another who is also a Governor of the School, gets promoted and puts many letters after his name, such as A.A.Q.M.G. Well, at the moment of Writing, I expect you are more inter- ested to hear that the School ' s numbers are keeping up and are the same as last year, that we have very few difficulties other than those we have always had, and the list of Old Boys serving, whilst very incomplete, is an excellent indication of the existing spirit in the School. It also proves that our Old Boys are doing their duty nobly and unselfishly. You will notice that it is a list which can be com- pared favourably with any other in this country. Meantime, my very best wishes to you all. — C. W. Lonsdale. List of Old Boys Serving in the Forces KILLED OR MISSING WHILE ON ACTIVE SERVICE Anthony R.
