SCI-IOOLYEZIR Book at HISTGRY UF FORM I EATED on the Normal School lawn, with the May sun beaming on their upturned faces, fourteen youths of Form I were busily engaged in killing two birds with one stone. As t.hey chanted tl, fl, I. I, s. rl, r, nz, in a variety of time and pitch that would have bowed Mr. Cringan's grey hair in sorrow to t.he grave. they scanned the sky for some new bird to add to their calendar. There was a sudden hushg up piped a voice, Say. do remember the time that- Wie do: all of them. It seems but yesterday that Monday morning we first assembled as a class. Perehing nervously on our stools, we inspected our classmates for the year and speculated thusly- If she doesn't live in Richmond Hill and if her dis- position matches her looks. well who knows? Or, If he dances and has a car. life may be better than I thought. VVe were strangers in a strange land. VVhat a change Mr. Patterson's first words madei Ladies and Gentlemen, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the Toronto Normal School and the teaching profession. VYe felt at home. and have felt that way ever since. It was his words of guidance that first day that helped to make those that followed so much easier and pleasanter for us. But more than this. Mr. Patterson has endowed us with his own enthusiasm and appreciation of the common things in Nature. When next year. we apply his principles and methods, Nature Study will become the most delightful subject on the Curriculum. Do you remember when first we became friends? In the ruddy glow of the camp-fire with the lapping of the Humber in our ears. we formed ties and friend- ships that still glow within us. It was the first party of the year and perhaps the fondest in our hearts. There was born that class spirit which binds us still. Our Form may justly claim to having influenced the School's activities. From Form I were recruited leaders for every school organization. Our roll was a Who's Who of T.N.S. No matter how they appeared to the rest of the School. we knew these leaders for what they were, A prophet is not without hononre- Being polite, we start with the ladies. There was Dorothy Angle, beautiful President of the Girl's Athletic Society and star of the Junior Basketball team. Her smile warmed our hearts, but hers was flint to our masculine grins. With Marion Aikens, it was a case of out of the frying-pan into the fire. From associate editor of the Spectator to Director of Photography for the Year Book was exactly that jump. But Marian thrived on the heat. Fomi I MR. A. M. PATTERSON NN hen a question was too dlfhcellt lt was referred to lthxabcth Bast. the Form lfncyclopedia. That is why she was Form Bcpresentatlye on the Second Literary lixecutive. tlur refl-headed Bean's Bepresentat iv 4-.tfollena .Xrmstrong astounded us with her mathematical juggling of I2 and 23. And Uh, the men. Take Sinclair Hemingway. To the rest of the school. he was President of the Literary Society. Urator and Debater. contributor to Nlcl.ean's and member of the year Book Staff, but we knew him for a commuter to Vifeston and advocate of blind begging as an honourable profession. Again, Editor of the Year Book. Secretary-Treasurer of I Boy's Athletics and Editor of the Spectator were the titles given Gordon McIntyre by the school. But we gave him a different title, The Canny Scot and iixxiljllltifl-TTEiit'l'.u synonymous epithets. Because he was a member of Parliament and reputed to be independently wealthy, all the school funds were entrusted to Bill Bedford. But we knew he had missed his calling: he should have been an Oriental despot with a very large harem. Preston Woodward was the very successful Business Nlanagcr of the Year Book and the only boy to display his vocal talents upon the platform. His success in soliciting advertising was due to the fact that the business men found it easiest to give him an ad than to listen longer. Tom Bradford. our Bepresentative on the Year Book Staff. modestly attri- buted his success in obtaining advertising to his business-like manner. his per- severance, intelligence and .lean Abbot s smile. To everyone else Ted Shunk was our handsomest male and captain of the Basketball Team: but to us he was the phenomenon who read through his nose. The Business Manager ofthe Dramatic Club and President of the Form Audubon Society was Earl Taylor. He was better known to us however as the Eternal Question Mark or the lad with the wrong note-book. It may be added to Harry Henderson's crimes that he wrote this history. Among our fondest recollections will be those memories we possess of our Principal, Mr. Vl'hyte. He was a daily inspiration to us. We saw him in many situations, some of them trying indeed, but he was ever the same, kindly, gracious and patient. Often we must have been a source of worry and trial to him but he never appeared angry or provoked with us. Of his humour, it can only be said that it was true wit, and. while not without its effect, was the gentlest we have ever known. It was the magic of David Whyte's personality that Inoulded Form I and all the other forms in that unity of purpose and spirit so charac- teristic of the Toronto Normal School. H.B.H.
