4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Sunday, October Sth. Thanksgiving. The preacher in Chapel was the Rev. Briarley Brown, Rector of St. John's, Norway, Toronto. He spoke to us about the beauty of everyday life. He recalled to us the Well-known picture, The Angelus, which typifies the attributes of Thanksgiving -hard work, companionship, and over all the spiritual life. The Chapel had been beautifully decorated the day be- fore with fruits, vegetables and wild flowers of every kind. The ladies of the Chancel Guild were helped by boys of the Junior School in the work of arranging the decorations. Sunday, October 15th. The Chaplain preached. Taking the text Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth , the Chaplain said that our Lord is not simply setting a spiritual ideal, but talking plain, practical com- monsense when He promises not only happiness, but actual success to those who are not self-assertive but self-forget- ful. Meekness is to forget self and to think only of others and of the work which is to be done. It is not to be as- sociated with feebleness of character or hypocrisy. .-.9 f'j - , hz? ' 0: in 2 . . W!

We also miss Mr. Peck, who has left us to take up a career in insurance, with big-time football on the side. It is worthy of note that the number of Argo fans at the School has considerably increased. Good luck, Mr. Peck! Colonel Stevenson, dear to the memories of so many of us, has returned to the School as a regular master this year. We extend to him our heartiest welcome. Bigside is now going through its paces in the capable hands of Mr. P. B. Chantler, former star of the Queen's Football Team. We are glad to have him with us, and we hope to see him again in future years. No. 110 Squadron Our affiliated unit, No. 110 City of Toronto Squadron, under Squadron Leader Keith Russell, is the only reserve unit in the R.C.A.F. to be mobilised as yet. Visit of a Magician On the evening of Saturday, September 16th, the School was entertained by Mr. Edward Charles, who dis- played his very clever magic, and more than once com- pletely fooled us. We hope that in the future we may spend another such enjoyable evening. Intramural Sports Boys not on Bigside have been divided into three groups this year, to form an intramural league in various sports. It was natural that in selecting names for the groups. the Headmaster shhould choose among the famous in T.C.S. annals. The Johnson Group bore the name of the Founder of the School, the Osler was called after the tirst Head Boy: and the third group was given the
