THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE. TItURSDAY, JUNE 7th, 1934 PAGE THBE By C. B. sissons From June ltb ta l3th o! Ibis 01 year in connection with the annual Commencement Day exercises the Ontario Ladies' College, of Whitby. wlll celebrate tbe diamond jubilee c! is founding. The time seems ap- Propriate to review ini rame part the bistory o! the school as indicatirig tbe place whicb. the Church bas had in the education o! young women in Canada. And if ini these days. when education has become a prim- ary interest o! the State. it may seem an idie task or even an im- pertinence for a private body under relîgîous patronage to found anid maintairi schools, il should be re- membered that tbe father o! the Ontario Common School System was himself the promoter anid first pres- ident o! Victoria College, and thirty- f ive years late, tben in retirement, witb eloquent words o! benediction be laid the corner-stane at tbe col-1 lege at Whitby for thbe nortb wing wbicb bears bis naine. One mayý with entire conslstency be an 'ad-1 vocate o! state education and an advocate o! private residential scbools under religlous auspices. To-day this is the case. and sixty years ago it was not less the case. At that time young women were slowly finding their way irita the higb schools, but had not yet gain- ed admittance ta the University o! Toronto. Furthermore, the popula- tion o! Ontario was mucb more scat- tered in rural cominunities than it now is; o! the one bundred and twenty-two pupils attendirig classesý ai Wbitby in 1875 only six were froin Tororito. A need existed fori a place wbere young women froin f arm and village and town. as well as from the cities. might reside in a Christian commninty while receiv- ing an education sornewbat broader anid less purely academic than that available in the State secondary schools. At such a lime an opportunity presented itsel!. Sherif! Reynolds, o! Wbit by, bad reached a crisis in bis remarkable career. Born amid the clash o! arms in 1814. he had r tuned bis l! e ta, a stirririg pitcb. He bad eniisted i the Imperial ariny at the age o! fi! teen, bad seen ser- vice abroad. and returneci ta marry anid to become a member o! the Legislature aitbe age o! twenty. then ta become invoived in the ev- ents o! 1837. ta ba accused o! dis- loyalty. as were other good men like Dr. Morrison and Marshall Spring Bidwell, to be a fugitive from. per- secution, to be f reed In f air trial and finally ta become a promoter of railways. a sherif! o! Ontario Coun- iy and tbe builder o! what the press iri ihose days (wben exaggeration, was unknown) described as "the, largest and best residence on titis continent." Why he desired so large a residence. and one costing $70.000. and so solidly built and adorned that time bas made no conquest o! it, bas flot hitherto been disclosed. Per- haps a partial explanation is to be found in the fact revealed in bis obituary notice that he was twice married and bad twelve children by eacb wl! e. His mansion was known as Trafal- gar Castle. In 1874 il was for sale. The Grey Nuns were negotiating for it. A group o! citizens of Whitby. anid chiefly the Rev. J. E. Sander- son. author o! "The First Century of Methodism in Canada," became active in the matter. A public meet- ing was held. The building was in- spected. A final decision was ar- rived at in a meeting in the great drawing-rocm. It was resolved to f orm a joint stock company to ftn- ance tihe purchase. James Holden gave bis name and weigbt to, the Ontario Ladies' Coilege, Whitby coinpany as president. The Metho- dist Conference was approached and gave ts blessing-withoui financial responsibility wtal-ta the urider- taking. Later the Act provided for the inclusion o! seven representa- tives o! the Conference on tbe board o! directors. Theri in f arm homes and in the towns and cities stock was sold o! $100 value to be paid iri five instalments by January 2. 1878. Further. the board was autborized to make a loan o! $20.000. In ibis way. by the subscription o! some three hundred and twenty-five ben- efactors. most o! tbem in quite or- dinary circumistances anid none o! them ever receiving any financial return. by the floating o! a mort- gage and by the contribution of $5.000 stock by Sheriff Reynolds as a reduction on the agreed price. the $35.000 necessary to secure the pro- perty was speedily raised. On September 3rd. 1874. a fort- night before its opening, the Earl o! Dufferin anid Lady Dufferiri visited the scbool. On that, occasion the Governor-Gleneral did more than lend bis patronage to the infant in- stitution. Taklng as bis point o! departure a bust o! Sir Walter Scott ini the room where he spoke. he ex- pressed sentiments on literature which will bear reproduction to-day. "O! late there bas sprung up a class o! literature wbich in my opinion contributes but very little to the ad- vancement o! tho..e hlgher aspira- tions whicb it ought to be the aim and object o! aIl literature to pro- mote. There bas ariseri o! laie a school o! writers whose chie! objeci seems ta be ta extract amusement anid ta awaken laugbter by turning everythirig that is noble, elevaied. and reverenced by the rest of the world, into ridicule; 10 substitutel parody for invention. and coarse yul- garity for the tender humor o! a sbetter day. If this error be avoid- ed. a sickly, morbid sentimeit-alisin is substituted, more corrupting than Labsolute vice, or an bistorical sen- ssationalism. which is as bad as elth- er. I cannot but think that it is a great matter that in our schools we sbsould take the greatest pains to maintain a standard o! bealthy, ro- tbust, and refined taste." The aim o! the college in these sixty years bas been ta maintain anid develop sucb bealtby standards of taste. Meanwhile, the students have by no means lived a cloistered existence. One o! tbe earliest docu- ments preserved by the college is a petitian signed by sixty-two girls ta ibis effect : "We, the undersigned pupils o! the Ontario Ladies' Col- lege. requesi the witbdrawal of the study bours on Wednesday night. it being Hallowe'en." Doubtless thse request was granted. for ta this day the halls of Trafalgar Castle re- sound on Hallowe'en with a pageant o! irresistibe f un. The grounds have become beautiful beyond words and fitted for every kind o! sport. Besides the Ryerson wing, the Fran- ces wirig bas been added, being nim- ed after Mrs. Massey-Treble. and a gymnasium and swimmirig pool pro- vide iridoor recreation. The orig- inal ten acres bave become a hun- dred acres. whose fertile fields and gardens and orchards supply ai once a contact witb nature and an abun- darice o! fresh products. The college ini sixty years bas bad orily tbree principals: Dr. J. J. Hare. wbo presided wiib remarkable abil- ity for forty years, Rev. F. L. Fare- well, who in bis short thirteen years added to the physical and cultural equipment o! an already flourisit- ing institution, anid Dr. C. R. Car- scallen. who is displaying in these difficult limes the devotion and statesmanship which made bis work for twenty-five years in China so great a success. The college bas a fine pasi; it bas also a fine future. With uts splen- did provision for training in music, art. dramatics, bousehold science and commercial work. in addition t0 the regular academic subjects il must always bave a wide appeal. Those who feel bampered bY crowd- ed classrooms and regimentation will welcome the scbool. whicb o!- fers a î'ariety o! interests. tagether witb attention 10 the peculiar needs o! the individual student, and espec- ially when studies are pursued i an atnosphere where religion is always implicit..

E. F. Armstrong in Trinity iUnited Church on Sunday morning when he based his theme on the words, "I go a fishing, etc," John 21: 3. Af ter enumerat.ing the qualities that make a good f isherman, lie gave it a practical appiication re- garding f islieri of men--4incerity, patience and obedience to the mas- ter's comimands-b>elng the chief re- quisites. Mr. Nornan Friedli sang a fine solo in addition to t.he choir's splen- did rendering of the anthem. The evening service was in charge of the Young People f rom Danforth United Church, Toronto, sponsored by the executive of Oshawa Presby- tery and was weIl attended and very enjoyable throughout. Prepared pro- grams imcluding responsive readings, iiymns, etc., were placed ini the hands of the congregation and the f ol- lowing took part-John Keffer, Wm. Rogers, Neville Jones, Miss Bell Law- rence and Roy Houghton. A Young People's choir under leadership of Mr. F. Sutton led the singing or the hymns and rendered the selecticin, -~WhY Not Decide To-night?". Miss Rowena Fortner, Toronto, sang the solo "In the Garden" and a Young men's ocetette sang "I want My Lufe to Tel! for Jesus." the members be- mng Messrs Boyd Slemon. Albert Cul- ley, Harold Colmer. Winton Bagneil, Alex Colville, Byron Vanstone. Hu- bert Hooper and Archie Woods. Mr. Gordon Lapp well-knowýn in this district as a successful worker among boys, gave the address of the evening based on "Zaccheus and a New Deal." Mfter quoting the ini- cident as recorded in the bible, lie deait with the changed 11f e of this man. and the influences ieading Up ta it. He dealt with the problems challenglng the Young People of to- day, such as the depression, war and liquor. Soins people thought the cburch bad no business to deal in these matters but as these questions face the young people and they are the commng memibers of the church it should recognize is duty regard- ing world affairs and deai in the spiritual intellectual and economic problenis that confront us. He re- viewed the changlng conditions of the past f if ty years wbich have te be dealt with according to present day requirements. Mr. Lapp covered the comphrenslve subject in a very im- pressilve manner and lis address was much enjoyed. T'Me closing hymn was "These Thlngs Shaîl Be" and Mr. Lapp dismissed witb the benle- diction. The idea of a gatbering of ibis kind was a good one and we were pleased ta see many young people f rom outside of town present to en- joy the service.
