HONOUR CLUB The Honour Club is an organization of the students of O.L.C. Every student in the school can become a member after agreeing to uphold the honour and aims of the club. She must realize, though, that her membership may be withdrawn if she disregards the regulations of the school. The Honour Club is directed by an executive, called the Students ' Counci I , which consists of a president, vice-president, secretary, presidents of the A.A., S.CM. and Yearbook, and a class representative, chosen by each grade. The Students ' Council held a very successful dance in November, which everyone enjoyed. Money was also raised by the sale of school Identification cards. This year has been a busy but successful one, and I would like to toKie this opportunity, as Head Girl , to thank all the members of the Students ' Council and the Honour Club for their most appreciated co-operation.

OKTICLOSM The Club has had a happy year and it will be remembered by all of its members. In our various little gatherings we have talked, sung, played together, and enjoyed every minute of it. How can we ever forget Alice ' s Moo Cow Moo , or Elaine ' s Market Day in China Town ? These meetings have provided humour and entertainment for us, but they have also increased our knowledge of music. Mr. G. D. Atkinson (com- monly known as Mr. A.) has been very encouraging and helpful to us. In February an enjoyable concert was provided by some of Mr. A ' s Tpronto students. In April we invited the other music and drama students to Join us in one of our meetings. A little refreshment was served after. In May four of our senior students performed before the school and their friends. This was the second of these concerts held during the past three years. Many of the girls will return next year, but those who are leaving O.L.C. will never forget Mr. A. and the Okticlos. S.C.M. Another year has passed in the work of the S.C.M. and there is still much left unfinished that we would have liked to accomplish. Still we, the executive, feel that this has been a very successful year. With the help of the students, faculty and staff, and also people out- side the College, we held a very successful Christmas Bazaar in November. This year we introduced the Parcel Post table which was enjoyed by all. Miss R. McDowell, our adviser, was always present to help and encourage us. Through this bazaar we were able to send contri- butions to many needy world organization. To the girls who follow, the committee wishes the best of success in next year ' s work. CHOIR This year has been a most enjoyable one for the O.L.C. Choir. Though we were crippled by much illness the girls were pretty faithful in attending practices. The success of the choir was due to Dr. Osborne, who devoted many of his hours to our practices. This year we visited Whitby and Agincourt. Along with our singing, Alice Mount and Margaret Cole gave readings. The Choir also sang for the beautiful tableau on Main Stairs and at the May Day exercises. Our new pins, which we had this year for the first time, will remind those of us v ho are leaving of many a happy memory of O.L.C. -7-

DIARY Dear Diary, I am the little secret guest of all the happenings that take place within our College, and if you will promise to keep very quiet, I will tell you some of them. Dear Diary, September 9 Old friends were met and new friends made in the gym tonight. After games and singing the best part of the evening came — the food. At the end of the evening with everyone feeling happy and quite at home, we toddled wearily to bed. Dear Diary, September 12 We all started out in the direction of the lake today to have a pic- nic. The girls were all decked in their slacks and crazy hats. The new girls were very anxious to see the lake, but we never did see it. As the wind blew in our direction and the rain in the other, we had to finally return home wet and disappointed, to have our lake less picnic in ourrec- room. Dear Diary, September 18 Mr. Le Roy Toll honoured us with his 3-D pictures that he had taken during his summer vacation. Dear Diary, September 20 Jessie Trumper had us in a land of sweet blossoms and music, while she related to us her most wonderful experience during her Coronation trip. Dear Diary, September 25 I hope you will sympathize with me today, for not knowing what I was getting into, when I, with the rest of the new girls, found that we had no friends among the old girls of O.L.C. They really treated us badly today. They mode us fix their beds, clean their shoes, bow to them and every time that we saw them at the table we had to eat a square meal with a spoon. That was only part of it; they made us dress like scarecrows. All the birds and insects from miles around hid when they saw us in the yard. This was our initiation; we will have the chance to initiate the new girls next year. Tonight in the gym the old girls showed some real talent. Marilyn Reader and Margaret Cameron sang for us. Andy MacMillan led her little group of players through a couple of scenes in the Lab. The star of the show was the one and only Jo Meyer and he r human car. After some dif- ficulty, she managed to get it to start, but when everything seemed to be going fine the tires one after the other went flat; for Jo this was too much, so her human car had to be taken off the road. The evening ended with cookies, ice cream and laughter. Dear Diary, October 2 Mr. Wilson McDonald was here tonight and recited many of his poems. They were both touching and humorous. We were very sorry when the evening was ended because all the girls agree that he is a wonderful poet. (Continued on Page 1 1) -9-
