vox COLLEGII 25 tions, and wish the year were only longer. On the 14th, the undergraduates were represented at a recital in the concert hall. On the 15th the Seniors gave a concert. Friday, the 16th, the Dramatic Club presented the Taming of the Shrew. Once more we saw Catherine M. in gentleman ' s clothes, but Myrtle Fawcett was the shrew this time, Mar- gery Moore the charming little maid, and Melva Hetherington, in her usual role, the humorous. A great deal of credit is due each and every member of the Club, for each one did so well in her part we cannot compare. Athletics The year is over and so are Athletics. Perhaps the two most interesting con- tests in the past few weeks were the swimming contests, the results of which are reported elsewhere, and the tennis tournament. The latter saw many keen matches, and in spite of Fred ' s many warnings keep off the flowers, there was interest and enthusiasm through- out. The final winners in doubles were Mary McLelland and Jessie Love, and in singles Jessie Love. Both of the win- ners received prizes on Commencement Day. The other interesting event which we are glad to announce is the election of Mary McLelland by the vote of the stu- dents as holder of the Strathcona Shield for one year for efficiency in athletics, womanly qualities and scholarship. Con- gratulations to Mary, who so richly de- served this honor because of her fair play and hard study throughout the year. MARY McLELLAND. The Holder of the Strathcona Shield.

24 VOX COLLEGII Fireside Notes Following the very successful Junior concert came the excitement of the 24th of Mar. Several of the old girls were here, including three former May Queens. The day proved to be ideal in every respect. The sun shone, the apple blos- soms bloomed and everything was verv pleasing. The American Club, with Georgian Smith, of Michigan, as President, and Mineta Lewis, of North Dakota, as treas- urer, was quite prominent tliis year. Con- trary to the usual custom the members celebrated the 30th of May, which was by the way, a rainy day, with much eclat. Attired in rain proof clothes, they took baskets of eatables and ■clothes, they took baskets of eatables and went to the lake where they built a crude stove of stones and broiled bacon, made toast, coflPee and toasted marshmallows. The stars and stripes was placed in the ground and the rest of the evening w as spent in competing at skipping flat stones in the water. Miss Chantler chap- eroned us and arranged so that we were home just at twilight. Though everyone was tired, we all agreed that the 30th or May would be celebrated from year to year. We were all so sorry to see Elizabeth Vincent and Mineta go. They really don ' t know how interesting Commence- ment is. Wilhelmina Simpson and Hazel Taylor left early also, but we are quite sure they wall return on a visit next year. Judith Somers-Cox spent a few days •with Hazel Taylor and Muriel Cook. Judith is going to England soon, and her mother and sister expect to go right to the front. Aileen WiUdns spent a week-end this month with Miss I ' oUick. Josephine Greenway spent a Aveek-end in Toronto with her aunt. Irma Horner met her there on Saturday, and they spent the day together. Catherine McCormick spent 24:th of May ■ dth her parents, and later spent a week-end in Toronto. Marjorie Garlock and Olive Woodman went to Toronto in May, to sing at Mr. Blight ' s recital. Several girls, Ruth and Lois Dixon, Mabel Sharpe, Grace Fisher, Georgian Smith, Melva Hetherington, Myrtle Faw- cett. Miss Lewis and some others, went to Toronto on June 6th to shop, and met the rest of the 0. L. C. students at Odd- fellows Hall in the evening, where we gave a college concert. The choral class gave several numbers, and Georgian Smith and Mabel Sharpe piano numbers. Miss N. Wright, Marjorie Garlock and Miss Tod, of Oshawa, sang. Catharine McCormick delighted us with a reading We realized how much we will miss her charming recitations when she is not with us next year. We will miss very much also Georgian and Mabel, and Marjorie and their interesting entertain- ments. Miss N. Wright spent a. week-end at home in Toronto. Elizabeth Walls spent the week-end of the 19th in Hamilton. Freda Pennal spent the week-end after the 24th with her mother in To- ronto, Commencement came with a surprise. The weather has been so cold for June that we have hardly realized it is time to prepare for leaving. But it is nearly over now and so we Avill all be home for a rest, and though we will be glad to be at home again, we regret the possibility of breaking fond friendships and associa-

The new and beautiful Howard Park, Methodist Church in Sunnyvside Avenue, Toronto, Ontario, was the scene of a pretty wedding recently ' , when Kath- leen Augusta, daughter of Rev. E. D. and Mrs. Lanceley, was united in mar- riage with Mr. Ewart Cecil Roberts, only son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Roberts,, of Indian Road. The church was pret- tily decorated with palms, peonies and daisies. The bride entered the church on the arm of her father, while her cousin, Miss Carrie Lanceley, played the Lohen- grin wedding march. The ceremony was pei formed by the- bride ' s father, assisted by Rev. Dr. Creighton, editor of The Guardian, and by the Rev. J.W. Cannom, of Port Hope,, uncle of the bridegroom. The bride look- ed pretty, gowned in white pussy willow silk and lovely chantilly lace with trim- ming of seed pearls. She carried a show- er bouquet of lilies of the valley and roses, and wore the bridegroom ' s gift, a three-stone diamond ring. The bridal veil, with a wreath of orange blossoms, fonned a Juliet cap, and fell softly to the end of the long court train. The bride ' s attendants were Miss Louise Dickson, as maid of honor, and Miss Winnifred Lancely and Miss Lila Roberts, as bridesmaids. The Passing of Mr. R. J. vScore Our Former President. We did not know on the 2-l:th of May that while we were having so exciting times at the May Court Festival, Mr. Score, President of the Board of Direc- tors of the College, was passing from this life to the one beyond. The news- papers and magazines have already giv- en to our readers a sketch of his success- ful career. It remains for us as College students to express our deep apprecia- tion of the work that he has done for us and for the College throughout the many yeai ' s of his connection with it. Mr. Score had become an almost fam-
