Editorial at la Browning The Editorial? I'll have it here in a trice CNO need to clap your hand on the nape o'my neck O Master Printer! j. Take a Common-Room chair Not that one! Never has it served us well Since C nameless to youj some pedagogue plastered it Over the pate of a too-recalcitrant lout. C The Crime in question? In yon Detention Book It figured, I fancy, as Anti-social in Socials. l Where was I? Ah, the Editorial! See, I will scribble it now-what would you wish? How Shawnigan downed us on the Rugger Pitch By a mere margin? How by a margin merer We downed them in turn in Track and yet in Field? How mettlesome Colts leaped i' the lists to hear The plaint of the mellifluous Nightingale? How the Corps flourished, and how the Honour-Guard stood Stalwart as Guardsmen in the Sunset Ceremony? Or how the Eight, under the ubiquitous Peet, Shot straight and true ?-alas, we lack the space! 'The other events will all be found elsewheref A word in your ear, tho' C lest suspicion burgeonl In spite of all these divagations, The old schooling sticks Cregular Robert, thatj. See, it is done! Now, while some lesser minion Makes a fair copy on the Staff Machine, Take turn with me about the new pleasaunce. Here is Brown Hall, and here the flower beds, Work of the industrious Creek. In early Spring The tulips, they say, were a sight for weary eyes.' C. 5

At Press time it is 140 Boarders and 100 Day Boys. The many activities of the School are covered fully in the succeed- ing pages and these Notes, therefore, will be exceptionally brief, but the most encouraging 'thing of the year has been the wide interest in extra-curricular activities and, in particular, the production of News- papers and Magazines, the Drama F estival, ski-ing weekends - all of which have enlarged the life of the school immensely. In view of the tremendous interest taken during this past year in long distance walking, the late Mr. Bolton's exploit, which was pub- lished as a story in the Atlantic Monthly by the author of Mutiny on the Bounty, is re-printed in this Edition. In those days men walked without the fuss and fanfare which are to-day's accompaniments but, by any standards and in any age, Mr, Bolton's feats were remarkable. H.M. 6
