vox COLLEGII. Xocals. Take each man ' s censure, but reserve thy judg- ment. ' ' — Shakespeare. NOTICE.— All those wishing to settle old scores will find the local reporters in their rooms between a. tn. and j a. tn. Please remember there is no ambulance in the immediate vicinity of the institution, and that duelling is out of date as well as against the law. A soft answer turned away wrath. Emily F.: She never opens her mouth but she puts her foot in it. When is a friend not a friend ? When you give a feed. Eleda D. says she begins already to see the bright Rays of Winchester. Helen C. — When was Ver petrified? When she became Stone. I wonder why Jessie P. is so particularly anxious to see the second draft conference. So J y V n A n had two gentlemen spectators one morning. How pleasant. Lena (to Julia who is holding Rena) — I guess that ' s not the first time Rena has sat on you. What makes Maybell S on so smily when the mail comes in from Uxbridge on Wednesdays ? Ada (warbling) — What a gathering there will be. L. W.— Oh ! cut it out. Ada — It is cut already and cracked too. Fva F — Oh ! must I get up and take my pen in hand ? Gertrude — Not necessarily. I ' ll lend you mine. Answers to correspondents (apologies to Ladies ' Home Journal ) : Muriel German.— It is not necessary to s horten your skirts. For rent : Gertrude Campbell ' s extra foot of height.

Maude Beynon ' s vi2i k. {Special Contributor.) Jessie— Oh ! Look at the sheet lightning. Ethel-That is the largest sheet lightning I ever saw. Jessie— I guess it was meant for a double bed. Hattie Turk.— If you used a feather-bed instead of a rat you might get your pompadour higher. Evelyn Beatty.— Yes; by all means report them. Julia Moment-.-No; it is xm dew, not Mil-burn. Effie H— (picking up a toadstool) I ' m going to eat this mushroom. Daisy F— Stop ! it will kill you, it ' s a toadstool. Effie— Why ! I never knew toads had mush rooms. The latest fads are : Club pins. Paper hats. Losing privileges. Rhubarb. Address books. Photo exchanges. Losing your heart. Recitals. Rain. Miss W— Where have you been ? Desiree— I ' ve been practicing. Miss W— What did you practice .? D— The Fish Waltz. Miss W— What one is that ? D — Valse Chromatique. Miss W— Why do you call it that ? D— Because it has so many scales. We regret very much to lose Miss Williams from the Music Department, Miss Metcalf from the Art Department, and Miss Madison, teacher of Domes- tic Science. Miss Partridge, matron, has de- cided to take a rest. Her active steps and cheery manner will be greatly missed around the Colleo-e halls. Miss Williams and Miss Metcalf have been both pupils and teachers here. They are much loved by all and take with them our kindest wishes for a happy future. Vox sends its best wishes to Mrs. Nir ey (Miss Madison), who was married, Tuesday, 30th. We sincerely hope these ladies will not forge(

22 VOX COLLEGII. noble woman, Miss Elizabeth Fry, who spent her life in reforming the prisons and through her unself- ish zeal won the love and respect of all. This paper was read by Miss D. Fead. Miss Teskey chose as her subject— What is your life. She made us all feel the value of the passing moment, and a desire to make the most of every dny in life. All enjoyed and were benefitted by her beautiful address. At our last meeting Rev. Mr. Abraham gave a very helpful address on christian womanhood. He pointed out the traits of character we must cultivate in order to attain the highest type of womanhood. This proved a fitting close to our year ' s work, embodying as it did the chief characteristics of the great and noble women whose lives we have been studying during the year. The girls were very kind in helping us to make these meetings more pleasant by vocal numbers. Lack of space prevents mentioning them individually, but we wish to thank them heartily for their assistance. personals. Rev. Dr. MacDiarmid was one of last week ' s visitors. Rev. Mrs. Coon, an ex-pupil, was here for a few days last week. Mr. Vermilyea spent a few hours not long ago with his daughter. Miss Weir had the pleasure of a visit from her two little sisters over Sunday. Miss Williams and Miss Metcalf spent the end of last week in Bowmanville. The Misses Simonds had their brother of Roches- ter with them for a short visit. Mrs. Jones, of Hagersville, our former teacher, spent a few days with Miss Copeland. Mr. Campazzi, of Saratoga Springs, came for his daughters and made a short visit to the College. Mrs. Hare, after a long and trying illness, has at last been able to leave the College for her summer home in Bowmanville. Her nurse. Miss Crerar, went with her. Everyone is sorry that through ill-health Miss Ada Winter was unable to return for the closing term. Miss Badgley and Miss Stone were the guest of Miss Edmanson, a pupil of ' 02, of Oshawa, last Sunday. Miss Seccombe and Miss Gumpricht went to Toronto on Tuesday to try their instrumental exam- inations at the Conservatory. On the first Saturday of June, visiting Saturday, there wys an exceptionally large division of girls entertained by their kind town friends. The members of the Y. W. C. A. were very much disappointed that Hon. John Dryden was unable to address their meeting on last Sunday. Among the number of O.L.C. girls to spend con- ference Sunday in Oshawa were : Misses Seccombe, Lanceley, Edmison, Turk, MacDiarmid, E. Faed, D. Faed and Gumpricht. Miss Jessie Gibson has been forced, on account of illness, to return to her home in Toronto. The girls all hope Jessie will be well enough to attend the Commencement exercises. As Miss Anna Pritchard has not been home to Nassau, Bermuda, for two years, it was with great delight that she greeted the Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Archer from her home, who are on their way to England. Misses Badgley and Stone made a short visit to Toronto not long ago, and they had the pleasure of being accompanied back by Miss Stone ' s father, who came for the trip and returned on the next train. They were also in Brooklin for a short time to- gether. All the teachers and students were delighted to see Miss Graham, one of last year ' s teachers, who has been the guest of Miss Rowell for the past few days. Miss Graham is now teaching Moderns in Mount Ahison College, Sackville, Nova Scotia. Miss Paisley accompanied Miss Graliam to Toronto on Tuesday.

Miss McKeand, of Pratt Institute, New York, will be a resident teacher in Domestic Science. Mrs. Pope, Toronto, has been appointed matron. We hope those coming for the first time into our college life will feel at home and enjoy their work here. We are glad to have as pupil teachers Miss Mc- Ammond and Miss Seccomb. They are well-known here, and their ability to teach has been well tested. The 5. r. C. Index seems to be more of a maga- zine of general reading matter than a college jour- nal But its articles are good, and most of its stories are bright, and show much ability on the part of their authors.
