TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11 very suitably equipped for the function for which it is established, and in addition it has a very pleasant at- mosphere both for the sick and the convalescent. Miss Williams We take this opportunity of welcoming to the School Miss Williams, our new dietitian. It was a very great pleasure to be able to welcome Dr. and Mrs. Orchard back to the School for a day or two just before the beginning of term. They both looked well, and were happy to meet all their old friends. Dr. Orchard is the British Chaplain in Florence, Italy. The Master of Emmanuel College, Cambridge, spent a day at the School as the guest of the Headmaster. Dr. Hele is a well-known biologist, and he was on his way to Harvard where he delivered one of the important tercen- tenary addresses. He was much interested in the complete- ness of the School's equipment. The President of Trinity College, Hartford, Dr. Remson Ogilby, called at the School for a few hours at the beginning of term. He is writing a life of the late Rt. Rev. C. A. Brent, and was anxious to visit Bishop Brent's School again. Dr. Ogilby very kindly offered to give us a more satisfactory picture of Bishop Brent. We congratulate Pat Strathy on winning three of the most valuable scholarships offered at the University of Tor- onto. Very few boys have had such distinguished success. Mr. R. P. Jellett has given to the Junior School a set of the Smithsonian Scientific Institute's great work on

We are glad to see him back and hope that he will be able to cram some valuable knowledge into the S.L.C. Mr. Schaefer Mr. Schaefer, a valuable addition to the staff, has taken Mr. Sclater's place as art master in the Sch-ool, while the latter is abroad studying. He has already made a name for himself in dramatic and artistic circles in Tor- onto, and we trust that his stay at the School will be a pleasant one. It is a great pleasure to welcome these new masters to the School and we hope that they will thoroughly en- joy their life here. Dr. Vivian In his quiet, easy going way, Dr. Vivian gave the Record's interviewer his impressions of the School, and the hospital, and a brief resume of his past life. A native of Barrie, he graduated from the University of Toronto. He migrated to the States, but returning to Canada and hearing of Dr. Forrest's retirement, acquired his practice. He hopes to settle in Port Hope for good. His favourite sport is Badminton, but he would rather watch rugby or hockey. Dr. Vivian stated that having seen other schools he thinks T.C.S. is exceptionally well situated and equipped, especially in the chemistry and physics labs. The students are learning co-operative spirit which speaks well for the training they are receiving, and should count for a great deal not only in athletics but in later life. I have found the hospital to be of adequate size and

It is an invaluable addition to the Library, and we are most grateful to the generous donor. .. Mr. T. W. Best has very kindly given to the Library a book of Modern Photographs: Camera Conversations, by Jay, and three volumes on Canadian life in the early nineteenth century by Guillet. These books are full of interest, and are much in demand. 1- - Mr. Scott has made an oak case for the model of the School which is now on display at the entrance to the Hall. The workmanship of the case draws almost as much favourable comment as the model itself. -l..l.. --l On Stmday, October llth., Mr. Philip Knowling visit- ed the School and related some very interesting stories of his tramps around the world. His advice against crossing the Atlantic on a cattle boat should be remembered by those of us contemplating such a venture. Mr. Knowling's talk was enjoyed by all and We trust that he will return in the near future. L. We shall be much interested to hear the opinions of our readers in regard to our new cover. The device is taken from the School coat of arms, the key of knowl- edge, the crozier representing righteousness, and the crown standing for authority, loyalty, courage. The lay- out was planned by Mr. Schaefer. On Sunday evening, October 4th., Captain C. C. Dixon related to the School some of his very interesting and adventurous experiences at sea. His lecture was illustrated
