63 . The PORCUPINE QUILL T Esther Shub Photograph by Bain Studio. Toronto, Ont., March 15, 1935 Dear Undergrads of T. H. and V. S.- The alumni editor has kindly requested me to write a short address on my life at college, for the coming issue of the Porcupine Quill. Those of you who will be coming to the University next year will, I am sure, not be disappointed. From the moment you set foot on the campus you are swept away by the exciting events which take place one after another throughout the year-the sorority and fraternity rushes , the numerous formal and informal parties, the plays, debates and sports. Probably most of you are already looking forward to those famous inter-col- legiate rugby games. The academic life of the student is, in its own way, undoubtedly as fascinating and as interesting as the social life. It varies con- siderably, depending on the course in which you are enrolled-different courses following different routines. As long as you are en- rolled in a course in which you are interested and which offers you subjects you enjoy I can assure you that you will spend many a pleasant hour during your academic life. In closing may I extend to you all heartiest wishes for your success in all your under- takings-both present and future. Sincerely yours ESTHER SI-IUB 89 St. George Street, Toronto, Ont., March 3rd, 1935 The Students, Timmins High and Vocational School Dear Friends: It is with a great deal of pleasure that I write to yotu' magazine, and I trust that my brief letter will be of interest to you. Perhaps the most valuable lesson to be learned from the college coiu'se is the broad- ened perspective resulting from friendly con- tacts with students coming from many differ- ent sections of the country. A university education includes not only one's specialized study, but also social, in- tellectual and athletic diversions. In refer- ence to the Engineering course, I would say that there is more work to be done than in some of the courses, but whether or not it is more difficult depends upon one's ability and interest. Wishing you all success, I remain Yours very truly, HENRY J. OSTROWSKI Scene III: THE CYANIDE PROCESS Q Our School Orchestra Our school orchestra is becoming very im- portant aroimd this town. At first it played only at the Literary Society meetings. Then, having gained a little courage, it sup- plied the music for our dramatic nights. As a final step, on Thursday, February twenty- eight, the orchestra was brought to our local radio station, CKGB, where the boys played several selections. To make things more complete there were two solo numbers. For an orchestra that has practised for only five months or so, its music is pleasing. What spoils the whole effect is that the majority of instruments in the orchestra are violins. This merely means that we have several Rubinoffs, Kreizlers and Heifetzs in the making. They
