TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 After this entertaining evening, all we can say is that the sooner Mr. Sullivan returns, the better. ,,il. Mr. Beatty's Talk One Sunday evening last term Mr. P. W. Beatty came down and gave a very interesting talk on the profession of law. He spoke of the future of the profession in Can- ada, and told many interesting things about some of our prominent lawyers of to-day. After the talk, Mr. Beatty answered questions concerning his profession. iLli. Strathcona Cup This year for the first time the School has been awarded the Strathcona Cup, a trophy presented in each military district of the country to the Cadet Corps excelling in drill, physical training and shooting.

Show at Port Hope Fair The School again put on a gym. show this fall at the Port Hope Fair. A team of twenty performed on the horse, parallel bars, and horizontal bar, which was very popular with the crowd.

Russel ma. set the pace throughout and ended up first, closely followed by Kirkpatrick with Hayes, Lambert, Adams and Hyndman following in that order. Magee Cup Standing:- Kirkpatrick ................. .......... ......... 1 0 points Lambert ....,.............. 5 points Erskine ....... .............................,............................... . .. 3 points Political Meeting On the eve of the general election, there was held in the Dining Hall for the first time in School history an open political meeting followed by a ballot vote. This was won by the Conservatives by a forty-two majority. The Headmaster opened the meeting by explaining to us the different parties and their respective platforms. The Government was ably backed by Leather and Renison, with Passy for the National Government Move- ment, and Davis and Magee speaking for the Liberal party. All these speakers, despite the heckling, brought forward some very good points, and stood their ground like the veteran politicians. With the house being thrown open to the School, Dr. Jefferis gave us what was no doubt the most interesting speech of the evening, expounding a new party, namely the Christian Anarchists , being led, supported and followed by Dr. J efferis himselfg while Colonel Stevenson explained the policy of the C.C.F. party and the Socialists generally. Altogether the meeting was a success, though it might perhaps have been a good bit shorter. l
