He has always taken a most generous interest in the affairs of his city, and of his School, and we are proud to have him on our governing body. B. M. Osler was born in Toronto on June 10th., 1910, the eldest son of Britton Osler, K.C. He entered T.C.S. on September 14th., 1920 and left for R.M.C. in 1926. While he was at T.C.S., Brick won the admiration and respect of all for his honesty of purpose, good judgment, and con- sistent steadiness under all conditions. After a most suc- cessful career at R.M.C., he entered Osgoode Hall and is now a member of his father's firm, Osler, Hoskin and Har- court. Though still young, Brick is rapidly making an important place for himself, and we shall watch his career with much interest. The Staff Mrs. E. M. Davidson Mrs. Davidson has been added to the J. S. Staff as Lady Assistant. A double greeting is hers, as we have elsewhere offered our good wishes on her marriage, which has made her a very welcome new member of the T.C.S. community. Mr. Wilson We offer a very hearty welcome to Mr. Wilson, who has joined the Staff of the Senior School this term. Mr. Wilson is a product of King's College School at Windsor, Nova Scotia. From K.C.S. he went to Dart- mouth College, New Hampshire, graduating in 1934. Last year he was at McGill. In between spells at college, Mr. Wilson has had three years newspaper work in the Mari- times. He is keenly interested in dramatic work, and we hope to see his experience given scope in T.C.S. play pro- ductions.
