lit HELEN BUELL A smile for all, a welcome glad, A jovial coaxing way she had. Twas on a bright crisp morning in De- cember, 1910, just a few days before Xmas, that Babe made her advent into the busy metropolis of Stevensville Public and Con ' tinuation School. Having by now learned all her home town could offer, she entered Ridgeway Collegiate, where she completed her Junior Matric. Not content with this she decided to try boarding school, and so, with many others, entered O.L.C. in 1928, where she has gained for herself a host of new friends and incidentally where she hopes to get her Senior Matric. Babes 1 time, however, is not wholly taken up with her academic work. Dram ' atics and Public Speaking occupy much of her time, and judging from her several readings throughout the year, we know that she has achieved much success in this art. And now — next year, Babe is planning on going to Varsity, and there to enter Arts. Best o 1 luck. Babe! Favourite Expression — B ' gad? Hobby — Planning for the next week-end. DOROTHY BOTTOM Though her name is Bottom, She is always on the top. In 1911 under the clear skies of sunny Alberta, in the city of Edmonton, Dorothy first entered the oratorical world. Here she received her early education and completed her Junior Matriculation in June 1928. The same year our friend decided to at- tend boarding school and in September we find her at OL..C. Dorothy immediately entered into the many phases of college life, taking part in its various activities. We see her playing forward in our base- ball team, thus through her clever playing and dextrous shooting many baskets fall to her credit. Dot is also a brilliant orator and is quite capable of taking her place in this vast world. This year she has the honor of giv- ing the Valedictory for the year 1929. After graduation she is returning to Ed- monton and is planning to enter the Un- iversity of Alberta. We hope at some fu- ture date, Dorothy will come east and call upon her friends in Whitby. Hobby — Brushing her hair. Favorite Saying — Holy Smoke. Page Twenty-Three

TAKA MASUDA ■lune new her but loved her, ? [one named her, but praised her. One bright summer day in July, not so many years ago, in far away Japan, a little Japanese girl graced this big old world with her twinkling eyes and sunny smile. We know she must have been given to the world to make it a happier and better one. Taka went to a public school and finish- ing there, continued her career by entering a Japanese High School, from there she continued her good work and we find her in the Mission Kindergarten Training School in Tokyo. She graduated from there and taught kindergarten for a year. Last year Taka took up Domestic Sci- ence at O.L.C., but Art held more interest for our little Japanese friend, and we find her graduating as an art student. She represented the S. C. M. at Elgin House in September last and was elected Vice-President of this organization on her return. We may compliment ourselves on elect- ing Taka as one of the two councillors for our May Queen. Hobby: Collecting pictures. Favorite Saying: Isn ' t it cute? KATHLEETi McKENZIE She loveth music and also beauty, The night for love and the day for duty. Kay missed her first breakfast on Octo- ber 11th, 1907. We dare not guess how many she has missed since. Although reading, writing and Vithmetic were not absolutely necessary for a career in music and Art, Kay faithfully attended public school, matriculated and even took one year of Arts in Brandon College. However, as a woman is privileged, Kay changed her mind, and September, 1927, found her boarded enroute for O. L. C. In her first year she was a busy Junior, assisting as an artist. The fall of ' 28 brought Kay back to us as a Senior, grad- uating in Art and receiving her intermed- iate piano. She was president of the S C. M. and our representative at Elgin House. She also played the part of Treas- urer of the Okticlos Club. Next year Kay may study commercial art. We wish you every success and hap- piness in the future, Kay. Hobby — Playing bridge.

MARGARET McLEOD I Grace in women is the secret chain — The spell that binds forever. We hear the great event took place in Gait, Ontario, on January 13, 1910. Is that right, Marg.? If so, let us continue! Gait did not have the honor of Marg ' s presence for long as the bright lights of Hamilton held a greater attraction for her. It was here she attended public school, and wishing to continue her career attended Hamilton Central Collegiate. Margaret at- tained her matric there, although we do not believe it was all work and no piay. However, our conscientious Marg., not satisfied with a matriculate standing, ven- tured to O.L.C. and in ' 28 we find her enrolled as a member of our most noble senior class, and much worthy of her stand- ing. Marg. has held the honor of Business Manager of the Vox, and has filled her position very well. Along with this she is taking a two year commercial course in one. Next year she has high hopes of becom- ing somebody ' s secretary, we doubt whether she will keep up her secretarial work for long, matrimony will probably claim her. Favourite Saying - - No but — urn — Do you see what I mean? Hobby — Wearing brown. S GWEN ]ORT As full of spirit as the month of May. On a cold blustering night, January 30, 1912, Gwen first started making a noise. People marvelled at her promising athletic figure even at such an early age. She walk- ed at seven months and talked long before that. Gwen obtained her primary education at St. Catharines Memorial Public School and her secondary education at St. Catharines Collegiate Institute. In 1926, Gwen came to O.L.C. entering the Sophomore Class. In September 1927, she became a H. Sc. follower and now she is graduating from that department. Gwen has played in the First Basket-ball team for two successive years, and is a member of this year ' s Athletic executive. Gwen is a clean sport both in her basket- ball and in her association with those a- round her. She has naturally a lovable dis- position which despite all kinds of weather, makes her see the sunny side of everything. She has played hard for O.L.C. and we take this opportunity of thanking her and wishing her the very best not only in the field of Athletics but for her future under- taking. Hobby — Basketball. Favourite Expression — Word of honour. Page Twenty-Four
