2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD gentle hints that other subjects have a need of extra time. However, there always has been, and always will be, plenty of work to do, and no doubt we shall get around to doing some of it almost any week now. Let us close with a warm Welcome to Mr. Wilson and Mr. Tottenham and heartiest wishes for every happiness to Mr. and Mrs. Davidson. The School offers sincerest congratulations to the Headmaster and Mrs. Ketchum on the birth of their son. -C.O.L. BEAUTY IN SORROW There is a beauty at the end of life, The old man smiles, as with his dying breath He sighs, and from a mad world's strife, At peace, his spirit wanders after death, Whilst those bereft may find within their sorrow A beauty that we seldom understandg For midst their tears they know that on the morrow They too will pass unto a fairer land, A place where perfect happiness abounds, And youth again returns. There silence deep, T In gardens where a glorious stmlight crowns The flowers, all lost in drowsy sleep. Oh God! How many men have striven To find on earth the wonders of Thy heaven. -J.S.H. ,.J'Aa N . f -X 0, Q - , u '55i '3Q7 --1-Q

Kermode Parr The Record is published six times a year, in the months of October, December, February, April, June, and August. Editorial In this first number of Volume Forty-one of the Record, mention must certainly be made of the increase in numbers that has taken place in both Schools this year. More new boys have entered this term than at any one time in the previous 72 years' history of the School. The Senior School is nearly full and the Junior School numbers are al- most doubled. This strikes a very encouraging note for the year before us. We take this opportunity of welcoming the new boys and saying good-bye to all who have left. The late beginning of the term gives us the feeling that colder days are upon us remarkably early. There is even a rumour abroad that a supply of Snowshoes has been ordered, as the football team are expected to need them before their season ends this term. There is vague l'?J talk about making up Work-time lost through the postponement of opening this Fall. Our mathematics master assures us that we ought to be doing algebra day and night, our English instructor insists on English night and day, mentors in history and science each claim the twenty-fifth hour of each day and there are

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 The Chapel The New Organ The Chapel services have been greatly enriched by the organ this term. This fine instrument is the gift of Mr. Norman Seagram, so well known to us as Old Boy and a Governor of T.C.S. It is an Electric Wave organ, designed and constructed by the Robb Organ Company of Belleville, Ontario. The console is situated in the body of the Chapel, but the music heard is transmitted by a cable from motor mechanism in the Vestry to amplifiers placed overhead in the Sanctuary. This is truly a wonderful gift and we feel deeply grate- ful to Mr. Seagram. The Choir The choir has increased in numbers considerably, forty-three choristers being the present total. In Mr. Cohu's capable hands, they are already doing good work and the Chapel singing should be better than ever this year. Slmday Sermons October 10th. The Chaplain preached the first sermon of the year, his subject being Harvest and Thanksgiving. October. 19th. The Headmaster spoke on the differ- ence between the man who ploughs his fields in unceasing straight furrows and the man who, because he strikes roots and stones, gives up and therefore leads a shiftless life. October 24th. At the morning service the Head- master gave a short address on service in the cause of peace. This address is printed below. In the afternoon, the sermon was preached by the Reverend S. Boothman, of Enniskillen, Ireland. His topic was the Parable of the Talents. ,
