Bebication MISS MARGARET CARMAN It is 7710 st fitting that Vox Collegii this year be dedicated to Miss Carman who over the years has contributed so much to the College, and as Principal for most of these years I feel it an honour to write this dedication. Miss Carman came to O.L.C. in January 1935, as teacher of Modem Languages, and so has been a member of the staff for just over fifteen years. As a teacher she has been preeminently successful. Her standards have been high and any student of hers has been sure of a thorough grounding in French and German. To her students Miss Carman was very generous of her time, giving special help to a great many lame ducks . Through the years she has helped many students over the Departmental hurdles, who without her instruction and encouragement would have found it impossible. The one thing she found it hard to tolerate was in- dolence. Altogether apart from her work as teacher, by simply being herself and living among us as a member of the school community, Miss Carman ' s influence has been great and always helpful, hi all her relations to her colleagues on the staff and to the students, Miss Carman was ever courteous, cheerful and co-operative. The College has had a deep place in her affections and she should know that she has done much for it and for its students. Among the Alumnae of O.L.C. there are many who look back with gratitude to Miss Carman, her friendship and her counsel. It is with deep regret that we see her sever her connection with the school. She has been an inspiring teacher, a loyal colleague and a true friend. The best wishes of all, both students and teachers, go ivith her. C. R. Carscallen Page Three

Jforetoorb am pleased to introduce the 1950 edition of Vox Collegii. The Editor and her Staff have won our praise for their efforts. During this year we have witnessed further important improve- ments to our property and building. The renovation of our dormitories has proceeded very well and soon we hope thai this work will be finish- ed before another year rolls around. But most significant of all is the progress that has been made to- ward the erection of a Chapel and three classrooms. The Campaign Committee has 7nade a very auspicious beginning in its appeal for sup- port: already $20,000 has been subscribed! We will press forward vigorously until our goal is achieved. To the thirty-four graduates who go out from these halls to take their places in a world groaning under a veritable demon of suspicion and deceit, I would say Hold fast to the form of sound words . . . and those things which you have received and heard, keep! Set your heart not, like the humanist, upon the abundance of things which a man may possess, but on the quality of a pure and Christian spirit, which no thief can steal from you. Then will your contribution to the total movement of life be something more than figures on a dial : its motivation will lie in a short motto with a long meaning which I most earnestly commend to you — ICH DIEN S.
