OTTAWA NORMAL SCHOOL YEAR BOOK ow 1928 Men'5 Alhleliav HE necessity of justifying the time given to athletics in Normal is no longer an urgent want. The importance of some form of strenuous exercise in the training of youth is recognized by all. The Masters have ever acknowledged the necessity of training the whole many so while they have provided for the moral and the intellectual well- being of their students, as may be seen from the curriculum of studies, they have not been unmindful of the physical culture of the students. The importance of athletics is not to be measured by the physical development of the student so much as by the spirit fostered in the school. The love which a boy bears his school should be second only to that he bears his home. Shortly after the opening of Normal, the men students under the direction of Mr. Smith met and organized an Athletic Association. The following were elected z- ' Honorary Prrsidrnl. . . .... DR. JONES IM-xideril .,......., .,., IN 'IILTON A. CRAIG Sefrrlary .... , . .JOHN F. DALTON Tnasur r .,.. RALPH JERVIS CONVENORS Baseball ...,............... EVERETT W.

BLACK During the autumn months many enjoyable hours were spent in playing soccer and soft-ball. Throughout the winter months hockey was supreme. In the six games played, we Won three and tied three. During the short season at our disposal, we played two games each with Nepean High School and McKellar junction and one game each with the Department of Finance and Hull Technical School. The Normal team is to be commended for the good showing it made. Several of the men took part in what has of late years become Ottawa's major sport, namely skiing. Many enjoyable hikes were taken in the vicinity of the city. With the coming of spring we turn our thoughts to baseball, the peer of summer games. At the time of writing no definite arrangements have been made for this game, but we look for- ward to some interesting and enjoyable contests. DAVID B. BLACK. Hockey ...................,.

Though our actual playtimes are few, At Normal! VVe may work all day, But still some way, We find ourselves laughing together, gay, Though we've all of us reason enough to be blue: There's fun in whatever we do, At Normal! There's fun in whatever we do, At Normal! It's a singular thing but it seems to be true, At Normal! We are bored by the tests, And the endless quests For matter and method of lesson plans, too. But well we're repaid When our work is an aid In raising the standard of knowledge anew, There's fun in whatever we do, At Normal! LILLIAN M. STONESS. ! 31 A Refverie I went to pick some violets, In the merry month of May. The vale was so entrancing, That I was forced to stay. Admiring Natures beauty, For my spirit held the sway. And as I sat in fancy, Prince Charming came to me, Bringing Arabian perfumes, And smiling eyes that see The soul, and kissed my cheek, But, 'twas only reverie. The sun had smiled upon me, And the wind had kissed my cheek. The perfumes of Arabie Were the scents of violets meek, That nodded there beside me, And that I had come to seek. M.A1.DvTH DAVIS

Death at any' time brings sadness and sorrow in its train but there is something peculiarly shocking about sudden death. just a week prey iously Madelon bade us a happy farewell as she left to spend the week-end at home.
