After the Grand March, the Dramatic Club, under the direction of Miss Black- stone, gave a pleasant ending to the evening and made for themselves a wonderful start for the year. THE CHRISTMAS DINNER The festive atmosphere that prevails during the Yuletide season begins in the hearts of the OLC girls each year on the evening of our Christmas dinner The guests, faculty and students entered the beautifully decorated dining room while the choir sang, The Seven Joys of Mary . The Candlelight Procession followed to the singing of the Cherry Tree Carol. Then the traditional Boar ' s Head Procession carried the famed Boar ' s Head to the table, and dinner began. Carols were sung during and after the meal. Two of the old favourites We Three Kings and Good King Wenceslas were made into short playlets. During the singing of Silent Night the school and guests left the dining hall and went into the Main Hall where a tableau The Crib was presented under the direction of Miss Weller. Back in the Concert Hall, a play Once Upon a Christ- mas was enacted by the Dramatic Club under the direction of Miss Blackstone. As the curtain fell on another of our Christmas Dinners a cheerful Yuletide spirit prevailed. THE SENIOR DINNER On Friday evening, April 29th, our Graduating Seniors were the honoured guests at the school ' s annual Senior Dinner . The girls, lovely in their beautiful formals, enjoyed a delicious meal in a charmingly decorated dining hall. The Senior table was made exceptionally attrac- tive and interesting by a procession of tiny dolls in exquisite graduating gowns, the work of Rita Donaldson ' s clever fingers. The Seniors were delighted with these charming souvenirs. Following the dinner, clever and original toasts were proposed and replied to as follows: Proposed by Patricia Gilchrist Mary Lou Affleck jo Shone Anne Duncombe Anne Sinclair To Our Country Alma Mater Faculty and Staff Graduating Class Other Classes Response by Sylvia Skinner Lilia de la Torre Miss Sissons Lynette Price Patricia Hogan for the Juniors Joan Ferguson for the Mediums Isabell Faulkner for the Sophomores Dawn Myles for the Fresh- men Bettie Ann Spafford for the Elementaries Page Seventeen

Uniforms were badly distorted, faces had a few extra attractions, and there was an amazing display of obedience on the side of the new girls toward the old. The new members of faculty and Dr. and Mrs. Osborne kept us well amused during noon hour, and the penalties given to law breakers that evening completed the struggle for admittance of new- comers into O.L.C. HALLOWE ' EN PARTY This year ' s Masquerade made all those present certain that our traditional Hallowe ' en party is one to remember. The costumes were not only beautiful but showed great originality. The prizes were awarded to (1) Sandra Dubin as a Dancing Dutch Girl, adjudged the most beautiful costume. (2) Barbara Rowe as Superman, naturally the most original. Page Sin teen

Joanna Alexander for the Vox Collegii THE HONOUR CLUB (STUDENTS ' COUNCIL) The Students ' Council was enlarged still further this year to include the presi- dents of the junior classes and the vice-president of the Junior year. It was felt that in this way the Council could better serve the interests of the whole school. Meet- ings were held regularly, and supplemented from time to time by open meetings for the whole school, at which many problems were happily resolved. P.S. If future Councils are anything like as co-operative and well-conducted, the Dean will be happy indeed. M. H. S.
