june 1921 THE ilu iliemnriam A deep gloom was cast over our school on November 10th when Miss Helen Deitrich of Walkerton, after a brief period of illness, died in Stratford General Hospital. Miss Deitrich was one of the school's most promising students, and her death was felt keenly by all. But we believe, with the poet, that Somewhere out of human view, Whate'er thy hands are set to do, Is wrought with tumult of acclaim. 15 erzfnnalsa URING the school year three of our number were called upon to suffer sad bereavement. Miss Johnston, Librarian, Anna Halpin and Ida Hamilton, two of our students, all lost their fathers by death. Staff and students were one in their feeling of deep sympathy on those sad occasions. Miss Aloysia VVoods of Form V was forced to give up her course in December owing to a very serious illness. A critical operation was necessary but was very successfully performed. She hopes to complete her course at a later time. Mr, Manning wishes me to say that it's a boy.

He urged us all to use this organization as a health project in our work in hygiene in the schools. Our esteemed principal had a great honor conferred upon him this year. He is one of the few Canadians who has been elected a Fellow of the Royal Colonial Institute, London, England. We congratulate him and feel proud that we have had as principal an keducationist, whose reputation is evidently not unknown in Great Britain. Uhr Ai El-lump HE annual At Homen of the Stratford Normal School was held on Friday, February the fourth. For several weeks before, the whole school was busy making preparations for the big event. Printed invitations were sent out to friends of the students and to all ex-students. On the night of the At Home, the Normal School was ablaze with light, and everything possible had been done to make the rooms pleasant and comfortable. The walls and doorways were hung with festoons of purple and gold flowers. The lights in the halls were shaded, so that they
