In spite of the saying ignorance is bliss Elaine decided to obtain a little knowledge. Elaine attended public school and received her Junior matric at the Gait Collegiate.

Zelda, who comes from Kitchener, first saw daylight in July, 1918. She received her education at Kitchener Collegiate, ob- taining her Honour matric last year. Then she decided it would be a good idea to take a Secretarial course and so that is how we happen to have her in our midst. By all accounts Zelda should make someone a very efficient secretary. ' Tis said after she grad- uates she has a present awaiting her in the form of a trip to Europe. We ' ve heard that Zelda often becomes quite talkative and sometimes even violent in her sleep — we wonder how she ' ll manage when she ' s away? All the same, Zelda, we know that you will be successful in whatever you un- dertake and best of luck. Hobby — Knitting sweaters (at topmost speed!)

Tiring of the great metropolis she returned to Cobalt and has been keeping this up ever since. In her we see the all- round athlete with a special talent for danc- ing. Elsie has done excellent work in the Household Science Department and hopes to enter Women ' s College Hospital as a student dietitian this July. Where- ever she goes, we know she ' ll succeed for Her eyes and manner bespeak ambition. Hobby — Emptying the waste-paper bas- ket.

LOUISE MARSHALL A certain soothing charm, a vital grace, That breathes of the eternal womanly. Louise, born in Edmonton, June 30, 1918, is indeed a daughter of the prairies, in that clean wholesome sport is her main interest in life — thus far. Coming to O.L.C. in the fall of ' 35, Lx)uise soon proved herself unbeatable in badminton. Not only in badminton has she been an outstanding participant, but also in tennis, basketball, riding and swimming. It was inevitable with these accomplishments that Louise would be Athletic president, which office she has filled admirably. Finally, to top her years here Louise was elected our May Queen of ' 37. Next year Louise intends to enter University or Margaret Eaton. Let us wish her the best of everything.

Besides the signal honour of being a Senior, Marcia is also Chairman of the Commercial Class. In keeping with the Coronation season, Marty was the Queen in the Senior Stunt The Wood ' cutter and between the enchanting use of her eyebrows and her diet of bread, the audience was kept in a gay mood.

To Scoonie, we wish the best of success in either field. Hobby — Keeping her scrap book, and . . ! Favourite Expression — Well, waddayuh know! ! !
