Editorial It is with a sigh of relief and yet with much regret that we take up our pens for the last time for this, our last Vox. The year has been a very happy and beneficial one for us all in spite of the hard work and difficulties which have arisen. We have found in our faculty true friends indeed who were ever will- ing to aid in whatever way they found possible. The girls have been most gen- erous in their contributions and we have found them always good-naturedly will- ing to assist at the shortest notice and at times when it seemed almost impos- sible. To one and all who have so kindly assisted throughout this year, we wish to extend our hearty thanks, and to the editors of next year ' s Vox we extend our best wishes for the greatest success, and trust that their position will prove as enjoyable a one as it has this year to us. The editors regret the extreme late- ness of the Commencement issue and that even now so few of the departments are represented. The causes for delay are many, and probably a jury, after investigation, would bring in a verdict of by person or persons unknown. It is our hope, how ever, that the reading of the number may re-vive memories and cause us to live again the happy exper- iences of bygone days.

vox COLiiEGII Class Biographies 3 Miss Morden Busby. Sudbury, Ont., claims Morden Busby. Coming ' to O.L.C. in 1917, she is one of the many Commercial graduates and also a splendid swimmer. She is Pres. of the Commercial Club and Business Manager of the Vox ; thus is putting to practical use the studying she had done for her course. She intends to help her dad in his business, and we feel confident of her success. Her favorite expression — By Heck. Her pastime — Writing letters. Miss Ruth Dixon. Miss Ruth Dixon first saw the light of day in Maple Creek, Sask. After attend- ing High School there for four years she then cast her lot Avith O.L.C, where she has remained three years. She is president of the Y.W.C.A., and what the school would do without her kindh ' patient little self, no one knows. Little Dixie she is called, and Dixieland or 9 Main holds Ruth as one of its main at- tractions. She is graduating in Domestic Science, and we sincerely hoped the hard practical work would not be too much for her, and she has proven that it was not. Her hobby — Muriel Maw. Favorite Expression. — Dear ! Dear ! Miss Dorothy Follett. Dorothy entered the school late in the year, but it did not take long before she had acquired a host of friends. She comes from Toronto. Her music is a delight to the ear and we ' re not surpris- ed at the splendid way in which she got her A.T.C.M. Not satisfied with this, however, she is intending to get her L. T.C.il. What an ambitious creature is our Dorothy! Her favorite pastime is reading dime novels. Her Hobby — Teach in China. Miss Margaret Maxwell. Welsford claims to be the place of Margaret ' s birth, although she now hails from St. Johns. Margaret is a great favorite of ours, and is quite a shining- light in the Domestic Science Course, having taken it all in one year. Well done, Margaret ! She intends to be a li- brarian. Her pastime is sewing and her favorite saying, till the cows come home. ' ' Miss Muriel Maw. Miss Muriel Maw was born in Hamil- ton, where she received her education, matriculating from Hamilton Collegiate Institute. She is President of the Sen- ior Class, Vice-Pres. of the Y.W.C.A. and a general favorite in the school.

Muriel is graduating in Domestic Science and if you want to know how she has fared, just taste some of her cooking. Her. favorite pastime is finding jokes for Vox. Her pet phrase, My Dad. Miss Lucy Robertson. Miss Lucy Robertson was born in Longford Mills, but spent the greater part of her life in Orillia. Hard-work- ing, auiet and smiling. Lucy won many friends.
