f GRADUATING CLASS 1 unmeiodtous was her song It was a hearty note and strong. Twas the 26th of March, nineteen five, in the city of Hamilton, that Jeanne first began her career in this interesting world of ours. Her public school days were spent at the Adelaide Hoodless School, where she ob ' tained her entrance into the Hamilton Cen- tral Collegiate. Here Jeanne won many laurels, had a jolly good time and graduated with her Senior Matric. Knowing that no girl ' s education is com- plete without a year or two at College, she decided to pay a visit to O.L.C. Here Jeanne has taken an active part in the school life, and made lots of friends. She is treas- urer of the Athletic Association, and edi- tor of Who ' s Who on the Vox staff. Jeanne graduates this year, taking away with her a commercial diploma and also the best wishes of her friends. Adieu Jeanne! Hobby — Arguing. Pet Expression — Well — I don ' t know — . 0urntl|y H ' ounsburij Bright and clever, Sweet and gay Always the same From day to day. This play begins in January, 1908. The scene is laid in the City of Hamilton As the curtain rises a dainty little girl, Dorothy by name, comes tripping onto the •stage of life all smiles and dimples. After getting her entrance at Adelaide Hoodless public school, she spent two suc- cessful years at her home town collegiate. The next (big) event of Dot ' s life was when in September, 1924, she boarded the train for Whitby Junction and O. L. C. Within Trafalgar ' s Inspiring halls she took her Junior Matric, combining two years in one. This year finds her battling with the problems of Honour Matric work. Her activities are many, including both the literary and sports department for she is Assistant Editor of our well known Vox and plays defence on our second school basketball team.

Bunny first started playing the game at St. John ' s, Newfoundland, August 28th, 1907, but at the age of nine, desiring a larger field, she moved to Toronto. Soon deciding that a change would be as good as a rest, she came to Trafalgar Castle as a Juni or in 1923. Since then she has filled a large place in the school life of O.L.C. Her name has been on the shield, and, as Athletic President for two years her unfailing en- thusiasm has made Athletics mean a great deal to us all. She has held many offices, as, Vice- President of the Okticlos, taking over the Presidency, a member of the Honour Club Executive, Vox Staff and S. C. M. Com- mittee. She graduates this year in Honour Ma- triculation. She has spent some time on her music, taking her Intermediate and now making a success of AT. CM. Bunny has won her way into every heart and leaves a place that will be very hard to fill. Favourite Expression — Oh fer my sake. Hobby — Trying to reduce. The quality went in before the name went on. Twas a cold December day in 1906 when K. J. first greeted this planet with a lusty shout. Ever since she has held a prominent place in this jolly old world of ours. She spent her childhood at Brown Public School in Toronto and later attend- ed Davenport Collegiate. Four years ago K. J. decided to leave Toronto and make O. L. C. her home for at least a year. She heard, year after year, that nameless voice we all hear, calling her back and so she remained at O.L.C. for four years. K. J. has climbed rung by rung through High School days to her Senior Matric and graduates with the Sen- iors of ' 26 in the M. E. L. course. She has played a large part in the school activities and had the honour of being S. C. M. President and Senior Representative for the Vox . Both offices she has filled admirably. We all wish you every good fortune, K. J- Hobby — Stamping her foot. Favourite Expression — Oh! mm Page Twenly-Siw

GRADUATING CLASS When the head aches with thin ing Tis time to play the fool. Florence, better known to us as George , hails from Hamilton. She started her career at Kingsthorpe but later entered public school. At the Hamilton Collegiate where she successfully passed her Junior Matriculation she was the pride and joy of all her teachers. Still seeking knowledge she packed her trunk and came to O. L. C. The fall of 1925 found her registered as a Senior, George believes in hard work for together with her M.E.L. course she has been work- ing on her A.T.C.M. piano. George is active on the Okticlos executive, compet ' ently filling the office of secretary. Dame Rumour has it that she is go- ing to Toronto University next year and we think her course will be Household Economics. She is taking with her the best wishes of her fellow students. Hobby — Catching mice. Favourite Expression — Well, sta-nd h-y-y. that old I li e to wor , I really do But I li e a little dancing, too. One of Hamilton ' s most noted events took place on November the sixteenth, 1 907, when Violet Louise made her first appearance in the Maw household and de- cla red then and there that she would help the funny old world through its difficult- ies. Vi passed the falling down stairs stage and entered into a more dignified atmos- phere called kindergarten. From there she passed rapidly through Public School and found her way into Hamilton Collegiate to take her first two years High School. In 1924 Vi made her debut as a matricu- lant at O. L. C. using her spare time for her music. This year she returned to take her A.T.C.M. in piano with the best of success. Vi guided the Juniors of ' 25 to the dig- nified position of Seniors and this year has piloted the Okticlos through one of its most successful years. But she has not yet reached the height of her ambition and next year expects to enter Arts at Toronto University. Hobby — Collecting poetry. Favourite Expression — Well, girls, such is life in the wilderness. i l ' titji Twenty-Eight
