UNITED GRAIN C-ROWERS LTD. HeadOyjice: HAMILTON CHAMBERS. WINNIPEG Tghe 13001 By ALLAN IVICFADYEN There is a lonely pool high in the hills Which fringe the mountains in the empty west, And though it's nameless yet everybody knows What's meant when someone says, f'The Pool. I pass it often, coming home across the Greyish hills at dusk. I do not think I like it. The water's very still and deep, And never ripples in the lonely wind. You cannot see the bottom, nor reach it with A line. Perhaps there is no bottom, and yet Iive seen, at times, a faint disturbance rising As though a sleeper sighed below . . . It's very strange what things the mind puts in, When something has no name . . . I came across The hills at dusk some time ago, and stood Awhile beside the solitary pool. I thought I saw a slow, dark motion-as if A vast and sleeping arm within the depths Had stirred, and turned in dream. I know 287 I'm not alone. My neighbor told me once CHe keeps a nearby hill for pasture land? Of staring off across the glen by day To where the pool gleamed like a dime in the sun. A partridge Covey flew above his head But swerved around the hill. He gazed and thought That something great and dark lay basking by The pool, and then was queerly gone, although The bright gleam darkened with faint ripples. It's strange what things the mind puts in When something has no name. BARRISTERS AND SOLICITORS BEN C. PARKER, K.C. WALTER T. PATTERSON B.

Did you know you left me With the sound of laughter in my ears? . . . Do you remember the night we stood on the small pier And looked across the shimmer of a dark and star- filled lake We saw the moon, and all those Yellow lights that wind across the hill . . . The watchman's house . . . and a family of deer. And then as the evening stirred And settled with the scent of pines To a deeper rest . . . you laughed. The water was lapping on the stones just at our feet . . . A beaver, startled, slapped his tail upon the water, diving In a lake of whirlpools. A bird sailed up, black against the moon, And my heart leaped toward the mountain tops. Soaring towards the dawn . . . all because you laughed. And now I hear that laugh across the waters . . And you're so far from me. 52 I! U! gifs 5711 in the Cllvay of gun By EVELYN SARNER Where can a 'man buy a cap for his knee. Or a key to the lock of his hair? Can his eyes be called an academy Because there are pupils there? In the crown of his head what gems are found? Who crosses the bridge of his nose? Can he use when shingling the roof of his mouth The nails at the end of his toes? Can the crook of his elbows be sent to jail? If so, can he bail it out? How does he sharpen his shoulder blades? Perhaps you can figure it out. Can he sit in the shade of the palm of h.is hand? Or a beat of his eardruins hear? If the calf of his leg eats the corn of his toes Shouldnft he grow corn on ear? 286

,fl OW that you have gone through the year book we trust that you are not disappointed. In accepting this Brown and Gold please bear in mind that it was put out by an extremely limited staff who had to 'work on an equally limited budget. We apologize that the book has come out behind schedule. but rather than rushing it through we were determined not to sacrifice the purpose of the book as a complete record of our university life. Because it is the result of a few hard- working students we trust you will value it more. The fact that the executive and the student body as a whole co-operated most willingly was a very encouraging factor. Particularly we would like to thank John Hall and Frank Milligan of the Finance Committee, Harvey Dryden and Sid Sheps of the Manitoban. Thanks a lot, fellows. It is with regret that we had to omit the honor roll. So many students were leaving for active service as we were going to press that we thought that since it would be very incomplete, we would have to take the roll out. It has been an honor and privilege to publish this book. To those who believe that it has been fulfilled we thank you. To those who think otherwise, we would ask them to investi- gate a little further as to how this year book was published and they will be surprised that it came out at all. lt's all yours now- use it as you will.
