HESTA CHAPPELL Such as it is, then, pass life pleasantly. On July 20, 1924, Nesta first opened her eyes in Oshawa. She gained her pubhc school and early collegiate education in that city, and 1939 found Nesta taking her schooling at Hatfield Hall, Cobourg. At the beginning of this school year she came to O.L.C., where she is taking her Senior Matric. She has taken a great interest in athletics and especially in basketball. Next year she plans to take Home Economics at Trinity College, Toronto, and we wish her the best of luck. Hobby — Speaking Welsh. Favourite Expression — Ach y vi. ISABEL CHERRY The sunshine of her tender eyes makes bright the darkest day. Izzy, our most popular musician and councillor of the May Court, was born nineteen years ago in the city of North Bay. For eighteen years she charmed the students of North Bay High School with her musi- cal abilities, and then decided to join the ranks of O.L.C. Here she has endeared herself to all by smilingly offering her much appreciated talents at many functions. The only black page in Izzy ' s biography would seem to be her ambition to return to North Bay and become — of all things — a school ' teacher! However, in the light of all her virtues we forgive even this, and wish her the best of everything in the years to come. Hobby — Piano. Favourite Saying — I think it ' s mean. RUTH COHEK Work fascinates me; I love to sit and look at it for hours. On April 14th, 1924, Ottawa received an addition to her population. Ruth went to school first at Osgoode, and later to Lis- gar Collegiate, where she completed her Junior Matriculation. In September she came to O.L.C. to get her Senior Matric. Ruth is interested in sports and dramatics and has whole-heartedly entered into them here. Next year she plans to go to McGill to study social service. Good luck Ruth! Hobby — Piano. Favourite Saying — May I borrow the funny papers, Zerlina? PEGGT EKDEAH Good, the more Communicated, more abundant grows. In Richmond Hill on June 11th, 1923, little Peggy first saw the light of day. She attended Richmond Hill Public and High Schools, and this year came to O.L.C. Peggy has taken an active part in drama- tics and athletics. She was Secretary- Treasurer of the Student Christian Move- ment and is Assistant Editor of the Year Book. She hopes to enter the business world next autumn, and we wish her the best of luck. Hobby — Dancing. Favourite Saying — Oh gosh. BETTY FERGVSOK I like to work. I really do. But I like a little dancing too. On July 15th, 1924, in the Winnipeg General Hospital, Pepper first opened her eyes to the world. Winnipeg was her home until four years ago, when she moved to Delhi, Ontario. In 1940 O.L.C. became her home, where she studied for and secur- ed her fourth form. During the past year Betty has taken the one year Dietetic Course, in which she graduates. Next year is undecided, but whatever she chooses to do we know that she will be successful. Good luck, Pepper. Hobby — Dancing and swimming. Favourite Saying — Oh pooh. PATTl GERVAH Bid me discourse. I will enchant thine ear. The fact that a timber wolf was seen to pass in front of a certain doctor ' s car one bright morning in Chalk River, Ontario, seems to have brought good fortune to Patti ' s future. During the next few years she moved around to different towns in the Ottawa Valley, but finally settled down in Myrtle. In third form she came to O.L.C. and has occupied herself ever since in win- ning honours and prizes in everything, and this year she is Valedictorian of her class. Some day she hopes to become a great jour- nalist, and we all know that she will suc- ceed. Hobby — Planning her New Republic. Favourite Saying — Now, when we take over the government — . 5 .
