In those hurried closing days the members of the Vox staif found it very hard to seek out some quiet corner, and armed with pencil and paper, to strug- gle in solitude with Vox material. Bitt they all did — 6very one ! We had many plans for the Vox this year, but unfortunately they did not all materialize. The year passed so quick- ly, and we were all so busy, that before We realized it, the opportunity was gone. So this issue is already begin- ning to fade from our memories, and the written record will restore their clearness — and once more the Senior prophecies will warm our hearts as they did on Class Day. And if we begin to sigh over depart- ed days, there is something to which we can all look forward eagerly — Mr. Farewell promised us an Old Girls ' Week-end. It will indeed be a happy time, both for those who act as host- esses and for those Old Girls who joy- ously endure the hardships of the Whit- by bus to pay a loving visit to their Alma Mater. Aiid even the ones who live so far away that the journey is impossible, will have a share in the good time, for they will be with us in our thought, and we in theirs. So it is not good-bye but till we meet again. THE FOOT-PATH TO PEACE. To be glad of life, because it gives you the chance to work and to play and to look up at the stars ; to be contented with your possessions, but not satisfied with yourself until you have made the best of them ; to despise nothing in the world except falsehood and meanness,
