EMILY BLAIR Keen in intellect uith force and skill To strive, to fashion, to fulfill. Emily gazed for the first time on this fair universe in 1911, in North Gower. This small town was honored by Emily ' s first public appearance, when she trotted hopefully to public school, to learn the rudimentary elements of knowledge. Ap- parently she wished more enlightenment, for the fall of ' 28 found her at O. L. C. wondering, no doubt, what it was all about. Seemingly this didn ' t puzzle Emily long, as this year she holds one of the school ' s most responsible positions. As President of the Honor Club, Emily has been one grand success, and should, I think, be congratulated, as the responsi- bility is certainly by no means a light one. So here ' s hoping Emily will be as big a success after she leaves O. L. C. as she was while under its protecting care. Favourite Expression — Holy Swithers! Hobby — Mainstay?? — of the May Pole Dance. AURA BROOKS (roots) Eat. drink and be merry, for tomorrow we diet. In Courtice, Ontario, on October 17, 1910, the ranks of the Brooks family were perceptibly swelled with the advent of Aura, nick-named Toots. There she re- ceived her public school education. She ob- tained her Senior Matric, as well as the presidency of the Athletic Association at Oshawa Collegiate. For a year following this. Toots owned and operated a delicatessen and her love for this work (or its products) ! induced her to further her knowledge of it, so September, 1929, finds her studying Die- tetics at O. L. C, a Senior, and Treasurer of our Senior Class. Toots is prominent in Athletics, stands first in her class, and has more than her share of good times. This summer Toots will spend at Bigwin. We don ' t know what Toots is planning to do next year, but we shouldn ' t be surprised if the future finds her in the region of De- troit, relative to dentistry. Best of luck. Toots, and don ' t give that Diabetic too much Carbohydrate. Favourite Expression — Do you think I am any fatter? Hobby — Getting up at 5.30. Parjc Twenty-six

JEAH SIHCLAIR Laughing lips and twinkling eyes Conceal a mind that ' s icondrous wise. Jean was born in Winnipeg in March, 1912. She then decided to forsake Canada for the States and took up residence in Bloomfield, New Jersey. Here Jean attend- ed pubhc school. Last year she graduated from high school with honours. This year Jean came back to Canada to attend O. L. C. She entered the ranks of the Honour Matriculation class and she has certainly made a brilliant success of it. Dramatics have claimed Jean ' s attention. As if this weren ' t enough to fill up her time, Jean took up riding and has become an enthusiastic horsewoman. Next year Jean is going to Varsity. She has not decided on what course she is tak- ing but we know that whatever it is, Jean will make as great a success of it as she has of her high school career. Favourite Expression — ' ' Oh golly! Hobby — Going to Toronto, serve, Harriet. HARRlEr SWAIL Subtle wiles are in her smiles, To set the icorld a-icooing. Harriet first made her appearance in the year 1909, in the city of Boston. A few years later we find her in Saska- toon, embarking on her school career. Har- riet is one of those charming persons who believes in the old adage, Variety is the spice of life, and so she journeyed East to finish her public scho oling in Toronto. She attended high school in Oshawa and completed her Matriculation there. In September, 1928, she attended O. L. C. as a Junior, registering as a Household Science student. During this year she has held the posi- tion of Vice-President of the Senior Class. Her friends are legion, and what is a greater testimony to the loveliness of her personality than the regret with which we say, Good-bye Harriet. In July she intends to take a six months course as a Pupil Dietitian in Grace Hos- pital, New Haven, Conn. We wish you the success and happiness you so well deserve, Harriet. Hobby — Playing tennis during school hours. Favourite Expression — Oh, we have all day to-morrow to study that. Page Ticenty-five

MARGARCr AHDERSOK Her strength is as the strength of ten because her heart is pure. To our Athletic President, Margaret El- izabeth Anderson — Marg was born in Oshawa, on April 13, 1910; we iirst noticed she had a queer little ball on her hand, which should have been a rattle. She tried her entrance at King street school, Oshawa, and by this time the rattle had gone to ' - From here Andy went to Oshawa Cob legiate Institute, obtained her Honour Matric. The fall of ' 28 found her at O. L. C. taking a Household Science Course, however, she still carried her ball, which we soon discovered was a basketball. Marg has been our worthy school cap- tain this year, and she has, also, been on the first team for two years, thus obtain- ing the blue and blue tie. The ball has not grown to its full size yet, and we hope it will some day become another Zeppelin carrying her upward and onward to suc- cess. Hobby — Art Needlework!! (mebbe) . Favourite Expression — Oh, there ' s Ed- dy! DORIS BATTT Her unassuming air conceals Hosts of ideas and worthy ideals. Doris was born in Brooklin, Ontario, where she spent her first school days. In the latter part of the year 1928 she came to O.L.C. as an art student and has spent her spare time pain ting ever since. She is an energetic worker in the art room and has an encouraging influence on the other art students. Last year she was awarded first prize for standing first in Junior Art, while this year she is gradu- ating, so we have reason to believe that she will be successful in this line. Batty is very little concerned with the functioning of the school and won- ders why everything is at a deadlock dur ing study hours. Of course, we overlook this w lien we consider the artistic tempera- ment. Next year she intends to go to the On- tario College of Art in Toronto, and we all wish her the best of luck in her future undertakings. Hobby — Sketching. Favourite Expression — My lands!
