TAWA NORMAL SCHOOL YEAR BOOK ow 19 The Minuet Our Task Our task at length is finished, At life's wide gate we stand, Viewing this work-a-day world, Dreading its just demand.. A while ago-how easy, How simple all this seemed, Now facing life's hard problems, 'Tis harder than we dreamed. And then approaching slowly, Fear stares us in the face, And utters low this question, Can'st run this unequal race ? We pause awhile uncertain, This direful doubt to still, And soon our courage answers If others have, we will! As star beams guide to worlds unknown, Through spacious, darkest night, Life's purpose and its final goal Shine forth with feeble light. We see that all the worry ls useless, needless dross, For God disposes wisely In granting crown or cross. l23l We see how we must reckon ln sickness or in health, ln luxury or trials, In poverty or wealth. We see that we should struggle To reach the highest peak, Not alone of earthly glory, For bliss divine we seek. VVhere all men will be equal And gifted with God's grace, VVhere joy and peace win always Our hnal dwelling place. ADIEU To-day we bid each one adieu, The parting hand we take, But friendships ties, that link our hearts, Our parting cannot break, And though we'll mingle here no more, Though we should bear such ill, Though fleeting years may sever us, Those ties will bind us still. J. F. D 28

To the Students HE year 1927-28 is drawing to a close and you are going forth to join the great band of graduates of the O.N.S. who, in Eastern Ontario and elsewhere, are holding aloft the torch of learning in the primary schools. VVe wish you God Speed in that great task. You have been described by staff and critic teachers alike as the best class we have ever taught. This high praise has been won, not only by the quality of your teaching, but also by the spirit that you have shown in the classroom and on the campus. VVe are confident that you will approach your new duties with the same energy and perseverance, the same loyalty to the profession and its traditions, and the same high ideals that have marked you at O.N.S. Your pupils in turn will learn- To set the cause above the price, To love the game beyond renown, To honour while you strike him down, The foe who comes with fearless eyes: To count the life of battle good, And dear the land that gave us birth, And dearer still the heritage, That binds the brave of all the earth. VVhen discouragement, disappointment and failure come, as they come inevitably to all who follow the difficult rather than the easy path, you, too, will remember- VVe fall to rise, are baflied to hght better. Sleep to wake. THIS STAFF. Song to May 'Tis you, O May, that I sing to now, As you come with wreathes of flowers on your brow: With your bright green dress all flecked with gold, While smiles your own sweet face enfoldg Yes! dear maiden, I sing to you. You've called once more to the whip-poor-will, And given a voice to the mountain rill, You've filled the pools with the piper throng, And Hooded the waking woods with song: You've brought the buzz of the honey bee, With dainty feet all wet with the dew, Sweet maid! You have stirred my pulses through As I see all the wondrous things you do, And my spirit is wafted from this old earth To soar through the azure in childlike mirth. You make me forget the cares of the day, Bright and beautiful month of May. And decked in robes the leafless tree. M. ALDYTH DAVIS. l27l

OTTAWA NORMAL SCHOOL YEAR BOOK me 1928 Athleiicy and Education HE question of the interaction of athle- tics on education has often presented itself as a very serious problem to the mind of the educator. The records of many institutions prove that athletics, when over-indulged in, are detrimental to study. On the other hand, the programme that fails to em- brace the practice of athletics omits one of the most vital factors in the upbuilding of character. The problem then is to so combine the working of the athletic and literary departments of schools and colleges as to secure a well-balanced and harmonious development of the whole man, physical and intellectual. The great value of athletics lies in the possi- bility they afford in the formation of those sturdy and virile elements that go to make up strength of character. Lacking this strength of character no man's education can be said to be complete. Hence a moderate and reasonable amount of athletics should form a part of the programme of activities in every institution. This is so far recognized that physical culture classes have been introduced under government sanction. On the students themselves, athletics-foob ball, baseball, hockey-work for good in many ways. They divert the super-abundant energy of youth, otherwise so prone to find an outlet in mischief, into useful channels. The proceedings in connection with their club-ofhcers furnish most useful lessons in elementary civics and self-government. The teacher who is able to take a leading part in the school or college athletics has another means of influencing his class for good. If he is able to show that he has not forgotten his own boyhood and can still see the boy's viewpoint he can more readily win his heart and exert a wholesome ascendancy. This will tend to make him popular with them and hence dispose them more readily to please him by good work in the classroom. At the same time by his firm insistence on 100 per cent work during class hours he will exercise a powerful check on over- doing the thing on the gridiron or race track and teach a useful lesson in moderation.
