GRADUATING CLASS lElramir iForfoa iHanntng Tis midnight but small thought have I of sleep. One of the greatest happenings in the year nineteen five was the arrival of twins at the Manning home. Eleanor, who was later christened Onie by her sister, laugh ' ed when she saw what a dreary old world this was, and said to herself: Now ' s my chance to make things lively! She attended Lord Roberts public school of London, and then High School, and in both places Onie excelled herself in carrying out her first resolution. At O.L.C., although first a Sophomore in an academic course, Onie later in the year took a violent fancy to Household Science and switched to Junior Domestic. She has proved herself to be the best kind of a sport and right true blue. Onie graduates this year in House ' hold Science and is intending to enter Vic- toria Hospital, London, in the summer months for her Pupil Dietetic course, but we hope to have her with us again next year to resume the Matriculation work she so recklessly threw over in her first year. Hobby — Art needle-work. As for a favourite expression — Onie doesn ' t talk (?) AUfftt Ifirmtr PurtriH Hang sorrow! Care will ill a cat, And, therefore, let ' s be merry. Aileen hails from Parry Sound, where she was born nineteen years ago this June. Perhaps her childhood days were unevent- ful, but we doubt it. Her mischievous eyes, which have gained for her the nick- name, Buster, contradict anything short of pirating the ocean. Buster ' s school days began in Parry Sound, and we are quite sure that she made life interesting for all those in com- mand. At the age of fourteen she came to Toronto, where she entered Harbord Collegiate. Three years later she return- ed to her old home. Buster ' s return to Parry Sound caused so much excitement that she found herself forced to desert the gay and frivolous life and to retreat to the quiet and peace of O. L. C. Since her arrival here she has been busy writing both Junior and Hon- our Matric, as well as studying music. Aileen intends to go to Varsity next year. We wish her the best of luck and hope she wins many laurels and popular- ity, as she has here. Favourite expression — - Oh loooord! Hobby — Filing Betty ' s finger nails to thus prevent their loss.

GRADUATING CL ASS Ifttg iEuana Do 1 view this world as a vale of tears? Oh! reverend sirs, not I. Bang! Bang! popped a fire cracker. Two little eyes opened wide. ' Twas the twenty-fourth of May, nineteen six. Nine- teen years later the same wee tot, now no longer a child, entered the gates of Ontario Ladies 1 College to take up her Honour Ma- triculation Course. Before coming to Whitby Betty attended first the Bradford Public School and. wandering still further along the flowery paths of knowledge, en- tered Bradford Collegiate, taking her Jun- ior Matriculation there. She remained out of school for a year, but finding this not entirely to her liking nor that of her parents, she came to our dear old college. Upon leaving here Betty hopes to pursue her studies still further at the Toronto University. Although she has only attended O.L.C. for one year, she is well liked by one and all, and I know all of us wish her happi- ness and good fortune in her future ca- reer. Hobby — Hunting for hairpins.

GRADUATING CLASS •Pauline (Elariasa Aimma ' Why should life all labor he? On the morning of August thirteenth, nineteen six, the Adams household was much disturbed when their new daughter, Pauline, began to exercise her lungs for the first time. Pauline ' s first step in the Educational World was when she entered Havergal College. She spent two years of her school days here, and then switched to Brown School, the first school home of so many O.L.C. ' ites, where she received her Entrance certificate. Next she entered Oak ' wood Collegiate, but the attractions of O. L. C. were too much for her, so in the fall of twenty-three she became a Junior Domestic at Dear Old Trafalgar. She immediately became known to her friends as Pat and this name has stuck to her all during her two years spent here. Pat graduates this year, taking a House- hold Science certificate back to Toronto with her, and with it she takes the love and best wishes of all her fellow students. Favourite expression — Girls, third has gone. Hobby — Working cross-word puzzles. Patrtria (Smnlnj With gentle yet prevailing force Intent upon her destined course. Pat first smiled on the gay world at Not- tingham, England, nineteen three. She sang the opening bars of her song of life at a boarding school there, which she attended for several years. At sixteen she came to Canada, taking up her residence in Mont- real. Five years ago she arrived at O.L.C., spending but two years here. After re- maining a year at home the call of the Alma Mater proved too strong for her and she returned for three years more, one year of High School during which she took her Junior Matric, one year of Matric and Vocal combined and then one year of music . Last year she received the diploma for the highest standing in Intermediate Vocal, and this year she is graduating with A. T. C M. in same and the silver medal for second proficiency. O. L. C. will doubtless have cause to be proud of Pat in the fu- ture when she makes a name for herself in the musical world. Hobby — Taking snaps. Pet expression — Heaven to Betsy!
