vox COLLEGll 19 FROM A CANOE One day I startsd out in a canoe on a tour of inspection around the little Lake Kasheshebooamog, in Muskoka. The water was very calm and it was in water lily season. Sweeping around a curve of rocks a beautiful scene came into view : — a little blue bay covered with a white and green sheet of water lilies, and all surrounded by a marsh ol ' iris. I leaned over to pick a flower, and suddenly — I supose you fell in? — No, I — Suddenly I caught sight of a green branch floating across the bay, gradually naaring a little corner where the land curved, making some kind of nook that was out of sight. It must be a little stream, ' I said to myself, and paddled nearer to see. What 1 saw was a little beaver hut, and a little brown head disappear, leaving the branch mo- tionless. — E. P. C.

H ' ekling. A College is like a little world — Aye, thus it is — one generation comes, Another goes and mingles with the dust : May Day Our May Day is for all the girls one of the most important days of the year. The entire school looked forward to the day lest the weather should not hi fa- vourable, but the weather man was es- pecially kind to us and the day was per- fect in every way. In the morning Rev. Bruce Hunter addressed us on The Ideal Woman . His talk was one of the most inspiring and helpful to which the girls had ever listened. He spoke of the four stand- ards which a woman must live up to in order to lead an ideal life. After the address the girls voted on the May Queen and her councillors, and the results were greeted with great ex- citement and pleasure by all.

The Queen and her train retired to dress for the And there we come and go, and come and go, Each for a little moment, filling up Some little plan; and thus we disappear In quick succession ; and it shall be so Till time, in one vast perplexity Be swallowed up. Thus has passed a year in College, Pull of fun and work and friendships, Full of thrills and wild adventures. Full of all things how related. Now they leave, these eleven Seniors, Separated through the years In every corner of the ' globe With divers plans for their vocations Never now will they be Seniors Never more will eat steam pudding But the Juniors, Sophs, and others Returning will be in September In the precincts of Trafalgar They will be once more united Blue and blue their slogan ever ' O.L.C. our Alma Mater. —J.
