I will live alone and pour my pain with passion into music, where it turns to what is best within my better self. —George Eliot. The pupils of Miss Irene LeBrun, L. R.A.M., on June 4th gave a picnic to the lake. It was given in honor of Miss LeBrun, who is leaving the Col- lege to take up her residence in the West. Miss LeBrun is one of the most popular teachers in the College, and she will be greatly missed by the girls who are returning next year to resume their theory studies. On leaving she was presented with a handsome gold pendant set with braoque pearls and amethysts. We hope that sometime in the future Miss Le- Brun will pay us a visit. Prove to me that you can control yourself and I ' ll say that you are an educated man ; without this all other education is good for next to nothing. —Mrs. Oliphant. UNDERGRADUATES ' RECITAL.

Ambros. Once again we have come to the clos- ing day of another successful year. It is indeed with a feeling of sorrow that we part with our College friends, but with a feeling of satisfaction that all our efforts have not been in vain. On behalf of the Musical Club we wish to say that they have indeed inspired us, and we hope that next year ' ' s students will continue the work and make the club one of the organizations that count in the College. The examination results show that the music students have been a credit to the College, and the teachers of this most important department. We hope that the students and faculty will have a pleasant summer, and come back more than enthusiastic over the work of tTie coming year. THE ORGANIST. I wonder how the organist can do so many things, He ' s getting ready long before the choir stands and sings ; He ' s pressing buttons, pushing stops, he ' s pulling here and there, And testing all the working parts while listening to a prayer. He runs a mighty big machine ; its full of funny things — A mass of boxes, pipes and tubes, and sticks and slats and strings. There ' s little whistles for assent, and rows and rows and rows ; I ' ll bet there ' s twenty miles of tubes as large as garden hose.

Music resembles poetry; in each are nameless graces, which no method teach, and which a master ' s hand a- lone can reach. Miss Lillian Wilson, A.T.C.M., one of our vocal teachers, leaves the Col- lege to take a similar position in the West. We all regret very much that she is leaving us, as she has endeared herself to her large class. The Senior Musical Club held a suc- cessful recital on May 28th. Programme.

vox COLLEGII 23 There are scores as round as stovepipes, and there are lots so big and wide, That many little choir boys could play around inside. From little bits of piccolos that hardly makes a toot , There ' s every size up to the great elevator chute. The organist knows every one, and how they ought to go. He makes them rumble like a storm, or plays them sweet and low. At times vou think they ' re very near, at times they ' re soaring high ; Like angel voices singing far off somewhere in the sky. For he can take this structure that ' s as big as any house. And make it squeak as softly as a tiny little mouse ; And then he ' ll jerk out something with a movement of the hand, And make you think you ' re listening to a military band. He plays it with bis fingers, and he plays it with his toes, And if he really wanted to, he ' d play it with his nose. He ' s sliding up and down the bench, he ' s working with his knees ; He ' s dancing round with both his feet as lively as you please. I always like to take a seat where I can see him go. He ' s better than a sermon, and he does me good, I know. I like the life and movement, and I like to hear him play, He is the most exciting thing in town on any day.

Picnic List — Wooden plates, glasses, cups, paper napkins, can opener, cork screw, water pail, coffee or tea pot, hatchet. ;ndividual recipes for sand- wiches.

Pineapple — Ripe, yellowish appear- ance on the outside, with no soft spots. Indentations should be rather deep, and it might be tested for ripeness by pulling out of inside stocks. Muskmelons — Should be firm, on all sides and on the ends should give slightly to the press of the fingers, but should have no soft spots. Bananas— Solid, well formed and not too green or too ripe ; best ones those which are ripened naturally. One should pay according to size. The Seniors have completed their course in Household Science. Though it has been a year of work, we have
