We, who a ' e responsible for it, shudder when we think what a lot is expected of us — to condense all that has taken place since the memorable opening day into one little magazine, seems a stupendous task, and yet due to the efforts of those who have been so willing to help us, here it is, and all we hope is, that you will enjoy it. And just here we wish to thank all those who have so gener-

VOX COLLEGTI ously contributed and thus made our way easy for us. Those of us who were here for the opening day will remember the excite- ment, the bustle and hustle of girls getting settled, the joyous reminders of the old girls and their hearty welcome to the new girls. All that seems so far away now, our year has been such a full one ; we can scarcely realize that soon — very soon, we are leaving, some of us not to return next year. What a dreary thought ! And with what eagerness we are looking forward to the Golden Jubilee, three years hence, when we will be here once more to cele- brate the fiftieth anniversary of the dear old school. It has been a splendid year of the school. As each year passes we think it has been the best, but surely there has never been one to compare with this. When - ve think of the strife in many parts of the world just now it is with thanksgiving that we can think of the happiness, comradeship and harmony that we have enjoyed all through the year, and when we set out along life ' s rugged pathway let us all remember to carry with us this thought of harmony and comradeship and what it means in life. We all realize just what it has meant to us in our school life, so why not try to apply it when we may make others happy as well as ourselves? School Spirit Just what is school spirit? Or can it be defined in sufficiently descriptive terms? It is rather a difficult subject to try to explain, but is it not a sort of getting together, a thoughtfulness for one ' s neighbor and an unselfish de- sire for the welfare of one ' s school as a whole? It is a feeling that we, oursel- ves are responsible for our share of the school ' s success, however small it may be and that that share, if neglected, becomes a flow in the perfect unity of purpose. And this school spirit, we are proud to say, has prevailed in all that we have undertaken this year. Perhaps we hav been a little careless at times, but we love our school, are proud of it, and are anxious to see it prosper. And we hope that next year the girls vill have this same feeling — a desire to boost our Col- lege as the only one worth seeing and at- tending. Three cheers for 0. L. C. !
