TEMPUS FUGIT! — how true this is of the past school year! To the girls who are leaving Trafalgar it has gone very fast — perhaps too fast — and in years to come they will look back with regret, wishing it had been longer. People always say that school ' days are the happiest of one ' s life, but it is to be feared that when one is at school, one does not realise it. Let us look back for a moment at the events of the year. In February the school was shocked to hear of the death of Miss Fairley who was for twenty-six years Principal of Trafalgar. She taught many girls in her time, and it is certain that they all benefitted by her instruction, and by her loving devotion to her school. A memorial service for Miss Fairley was held in Kildonan Hall, at which many Old Girls were present. We must congratulate last year ' s Sixth Form for their brilliant results in the Matriculation Examinations. We are proud of Jean Harvie, who gained first place in the Province and who obtained an average of 87.6, and of Monica Lyman, who made 71.2. The other matriculants did very well too, and those who are at McGill we hope will do just as well, or even better than they did in the Matriculation. When Miss Rae left Trafalgar in January, the school lost in her a very understanding and helpful teacher. All girls who knew Miss Rae agree unanimously that she was a good sport. Mrs. Dichmont has taken her place, and the girls, who already know her, find her a worthy sub ' stitute for Miss Rae. The school was indeed pleased and proud to hear of the honour conferred on one of her Old Girls in January, when Winnifred Kydd was appointed one of the representatives for Canada at the Geneva Conference. She has for some years pa st interested herself in public life, and has made herself keenly felt in its interests. She has not yet returned from abroad, but when she does, it would indeed be interesting if she would come to the school and tell us about the Conference. With regard to sports, we must remark on the splendid play of the Basketball teams — especially the First team. They brought back the Cup into our Gymnasium, where we hope to keep it for good. In the Inter-Form matches IVa were the victors, defeating the Lower and Special VI in the finals. Hockey was taken up more enthusiastically this year, and many girls turned out. However, a team was not formed, so no Inter-School matches were played. The school continues to grow and expand; this year ' s Sixth Form is the largest Trafalgar has ever had — especially the Upper VI, which has an enrollment of twenty-seven girls. Those girls leaving Trafalgar this year hope that they will be a credit to her and will live up to the tradi- tions made by former Trafalgar girls. We think we can rightly say that they will regard their school-days at Trafalgar the happiest of their lives. [ 1 1
