Good sport in all good things! In the village of Lanark, early on the morning of August eighth, seventeen long years ' ago, Edith, better known as Ede, first marvelled at her tiny toes. At the age of eight Ede found herself in The Little Red School House near Lanark. From there two years of contin- uation school in Lanark and finally O.L.C. in nineteen twentytwo. She was a junior for two years, taking her Junior Matric, and this year finds her a senior, graduating in Commercial, a two year course which she has successfully made in one, and is taking with her not only her diploma but the prize for penmanship. Active in sports, Ede in her first year captured the Athletic Cup and ever since as this and that member of the Ath- letic Executive has swung merrily on her way. She is certainly one of our finest stu- dents and will be missed next year. Favourite Expression — O! Get off the earth! Hobby- Wilson. Collecting money for H. A. (grar? Hatrii A pleasant personality to ma e the ship of life ride smooth. During the year nineteen two, in Glencoe, Ontario, Grace first peeped out upon this glorious world of ours. As we know, she is a Methodist minister ' s daughter, and for this reason I am unable to enumerate the many schools she has graced with her pre- sence. We do know, however, that she at- tended High School in Hamilton, and then later moved to Port Hope, where she com- pleted her Matriculation and where she now lives. Grace is graduating this year in Domes- tic Science, having completed her second year in this course, and we are sure she will live up to her reputation as a very brilliant student of her class, last year winning the Junior Domestic Science medal, and this year the gold for highest proficiency. We hate to have Grace leave us, but we all wish her the very best of luck in the future. Favourite expression — Oh, I don ' t have to, do I? Hobby — Doing art needlework. C:V? ' ' V ' -

GRADUATING CLASS Hargarpt (Eolrman The thirst to now and understand The things that are most excellent. Entered on the Book of Life in nine- teen six. One Margaret Elizabeth Coleman. Address, Burlington, Ontario. Marg was brought up in Burlington and acquired her knowledge at Burlington Pub- lic School, then started her High School course in Hamilton Collegiate. She at- tended that school three years and then, thinking that she would like to take two years ' work in one, thus taking her Pass and Honour Matric in one year, she de- cided to come to O. L C, knowing that she could accomplish what she desired, here. She arrived in September, nineteen twenty- four, and is graduating this year with M.E.L., taking home with her not only the Silver Medal for second in gen- eral proficiency, but also a scholarship. Next year will find her at her home in Sutherland, Florida, where she will likely take up her music again. Don ' t eat too many oranges, Marg— nor forget to dream a little of O. L. C. as you wander under the shades of the Flori- da palms. Favourite expression - Just wait a minute! Hobby — Writing letters. ISjfUn iHfUmu And cloudy the day or stormy the night The s y of her heart was always bright. None of us know Helen very well, but we do know that she is very jolly, and al- ways has a smile for everyone. Maybe it is because she lives in Port Perry and is so proud of her home town. At any rate, A merry heart doeth good like medicine, and to see Helen once a week at the college laughing with everyone gives a fresh twang to one ' s own dull disposition. Her education was received in the Port Perry Public and High Schools, where she climbed from the lowest rung to the high- est of Honour Matric, and now she is a member of the Senior Class of ' 25. Her music comes to her as easily as skipping classes comes to most of us, and this year she has graduated with her A.T.C.M., in which she made a very good mark, and won the gold medal. Three lusty cheers for Helen! Favourite expression — Oh! You bet! Her idea of perfect bliss is to practise ten hours a day. Bon Chance, Helen!

G RADUATING CLASS ' ' Good nature is always contagious. Roared into the small ambitious town of Whitby on the Seventeenth of March, six- teen long years ago, Eileen Desmond, new spring model. Started off in low gear for a rough ride through Whitby Public School. The bumps were many, but she managed to get safely through without los- ing any screws. Slipped the clutch and shot into second for a fast pull through Whitby High School, in which she over- came many dangerous curves and many rocky hills with great success. Right into high into O.L.C. in nineteen twenty-three. Stopped now and then to take up commercial and music. This year she is leaving us, having taken two examin- ations in music, her two year Commercial Certificate and the medal in this course. Next year we expect Eileen is going to Detroit, but we will certainly wel- come her if she decides to come back to O. L. C. and to her music. However, we wish her a pleasant jour- ney wherever she goes. Hobby — Dancing the light fantastic. Favourite expression — Not at all, at all. IRargumtp Sarkann Anything Anywhere! Any time! Lete is one of our most energetic workers on the S.C.M. committee. Often, with chocolate bars as bate, has she fished the odd nickel from our pockets for the sake of the heathen Chinese. Not only there does she shine, but she is one of our best Dramatic students, filling the position successfully of Secretary of the Club. With her major course Domes- tic Science and the addition of Junior Vo- cal she is rather a busy young lady. And yet — she is ever ready for fun. Incidentally she was born at Port Perry about nineteen years ago, spending her time at school there before she came to us. And now, a toast to Lete . May her chocolate cake, her voice and her dram- atics be appreciated as much in her future life as they are here. Good luck, Lete! Favourite expression — - Aw kids! Be de- cent and get in your rooms. Hobby — Dropping hints.
