VOX COLLEGII 5 memories of seven happy years of school life. Says Bones — Good-bye kids — See yon all in the fnnny papers. Hilda Dawson Hilda was born in Bailieboro, and has lived there off and on during the nineteen years of her existence. In 1918 Hilda made her first appearance at 0. L. C. It was then her pranks started, and fearing- that she had com- mitted enough for one year, the next year saw her at Ottawa Ladies ' Col- lege. However, the next year she re- turned, and has spent the last two years here, where she has pursued her course in Commercial work. Talk about a speed artist — well that ' s Hilda ' s middle name. As Treasurer of the Senior Class Hil- da has been efficient, and we wish her success in the years to come. Favorite Hobby — Slipping on Bath- tubs. Pet Expression— Wa-A Oh. Grace Lander. Grace was born in El Paso, and mov- ed to Oshawa six years later, where she attended High School. She came to us in 1918, taking the Commercial Course, but changing the next year to Domes- tie, in which she is graduating this year. Grace was a very able President of the Domestic Science Club during the two years, and ' was ever willing to give her help in preparing for the nu- merous teas. Next year she intends to continue her study of music. Her hobby is watching the Rob- in ' s nest. Favorite expression : My senses a- bove. Margaret Webster. Margaret was born in Winnipeg, but has spent most of her life in Calgary where she attended both the Public School and High School, finishing her first year. She came to us in the fall of 1919, and took her Sophomore year. This year she came back and took both Junior and Senior Domestic. We all shall miss Margaret next year, but we are sure that she will have all success in the future. Favorite Hobby — Taking hall duty on Upper Frances. Pet expression — Say, Kiddie. Helene Allworth. Although living in Montreal nearly all her life, Helene was born in Toron- to. She is the grand-daughter ' of the well-known Mr. R. C. Hamilton, who is President of our School Board. Before coming to 0. L. C. Helene at- tended Trafalgar Institute, Montreal, where she took High School work. On arriving here last year she enrolled in the Expression class. Since then she has devoted herself solely to that work until this year, when, as a minor course, she studied vocal. This year she has held the office of Secretary of the Dramatic Club, and filled the position capably. Not only has she been willing to do her part to- wards making our entertainments suc- cessful, but has always been present to lend a helping hand in need. Favorite Expression — Mon Dieu! Mon Dieu! Cort Reynolds. Cort was born in Montreal and has lived there ever since. She came to O. L. C. three years ago where she has cer- tainly made a name for herself. Dur- ing her first year she won the Gold Medal for greatest proficiency in swimming, life-saving, etc. ; her second year she was made president of the Y. W. C. A. She won the Governor-Gen- eral ' s Medal for highest standing in Junior Matriculation English. She also had the honor of having her name on the Strathcona Shield for Athletics, womanly qualities and scholarship. She came back this year and resumed her studies, receiving the degree of M. E.L., and again taking up the position of President of Y. W. and has made a wonderful success of it. Due to her

6 V03, COLLEGII womanly qualities she was elected May Queen, and who ever forgets how sweet she was and how well she filled the po- sition? We hope that in years to come she may win her way in the world as she has into the hearts of all the girls. Alice Savage. Alice, or as we know her better as Sammy, comes to us from Marie- ville, where she received her High School education. She has spent only one year here, but has completed her Commercial Course with exceptionally high standing. She has also taken her Junior piano exam., and so has spent a very profitable year. To many of us Sammy perhaps seems very quiet, but not so to those who really know her best. However, we all have learned to love her, and w r ish her every success in her work next year. Mildred Cole. Mildred Cole first saw the sun- shine in Woodstock, Ontario. There she attended school until four years ago, when she moved to High Park Gardens, Toronto, and after a short time there she cast in her lot with O.L. C. In her junior year she was presi- dent of the Art Club, and in her Sen- ior year Art representative for Vox, and secretary-Treasurer of the Club. What the school will do without Mil- dred ' s ready help, no one knows. Hobby — Painting posters and cross- stitching. Pet expression — Oh, darn Reta. Betty Martin. Betty Martin was born in Hamilton, and got her Matriculation in the Ham- ilton High School. She graduates in Domestic Science this year, and has been a very able treasure in the Do- mestic Science Club during her two years. Next year she expects to special- ize in music. Hobby — ' Writing essays. Favorite Saying — Heavens to John. Olive Payne. Olive ' s home is in Chapleau. Discov- ering that her ambition was to flourish the paint brush, she left High School to take the 0. L. C. Art Course, and was President of the Class this year. Olive is the personification of good-natured- ness, and even though unseen, her proximity is always known by her whole-hearted laugh which ripples out so spontaneously, or by her measured ti ' ead, which never changes according to moods. Evidently the girls think her hobby is making place-cards, for prior to any school festivity or D. S. student ' s luncheon, she is always be- sieged with requests to make them. Her favorite saying — Oh, Landy. Gwendoline Klombies. Gwendoline, better known as Gwen, claims Manchester, England, as her birthplace, but went to Lashburn when only three years old. She receiv- ed her elementary education there, also attended St. Alban ' s College, Sas- katoon, where she took music and mis- cellaneous subjects, coming to O.L.C. in 1918. Gwen held quite important offices, being Vice-President of both the Y.W. OA. and the Okticlos Club, but she very capably filled them along with her heavy course in music, taking her In- termediate Piano, also her A.T.C.M. in Vocal with honors, and is the Gold Medallist of her year. She also re- ceived the highest marks last year in Intermediate vocal. She will be great- ly missed in our halls next year, but we hope she will have the best of success in whatever she undertakes. Favorite Expression — I ' U be dag- gered. Helen Luke. Helen is another of our numerous Hamilton girls. She received her High School education in Oshawa, and came to us in 1918, and elected the Commer- cial Course, in which she graduated this year. This year she holds the po- sition of Vice-President of the Commer-
