DeLury, M.A., L.L.D., now of Manîlla, Ont., former pro- fessor of matbematics and dean of residence in the University of Toronto, and a distinguisbed ald- time graduate of Bowrnanville High Schaol, was asked by for- mer principal John Elliott, Lon- don, for some memroies of bis high school days in Bowmanville. The four outstanding students ta whom be refers are Rev. Neil McPbemsan, a brilliant graduate of Queen's and A. H. Gibbard, G. H. Hogamth and Dr. DeLumy well known graduates of Toronto University. Fa]lowing is Dm. DeLumy's kind reply: My memrnaies of Bowmanville and the High Schoal in particu- lar are altogether pleasant. 1 went there in January, 1880, through the kind and helping hand of James Millar, a singular- ly good teacher wbo loved bis sub- ject, mathemnatics, and had a rare good beart. The other teachers were Mr. Oliver, Mr. Gilfillan, and Miss King, ahl helpful, effi- cient and kindly. Tbey put a pace inta the work such as one finds no longer, for example peparing in a year and a haîf, pupils in Latin and Gmeek from the begin- ning ta matriculation, readinX three orations of Cicero, a haîf book of Virgil, and a faim slice of Ovid, and in the other language a book of Xenopban and a book of Hamer.

This year the editors are Patricia Cale, Mary Southey, Betty Grant, Roy Falls, and Gerald Piper. Re- viewing the journal we find in- cluded Principal Thompson's mnes- sage ta the graduating class, edi- tors' page, world news, literary, school news, war bonour rail, sports, fun page and school hon- our roll. Having read the book from caver ta cover we miss the mnusic page and wonder if the in- terest in this important subject is waning. In the World News Review they have covered the food shortage, strikes, the new Governor-Gen- eral, Nuremburg trials, atomic bomb and the U.N.0. and their summaries of each is proof that the younger generation appears ta be taking quite an active and thorough interest in world af- fairs. This fact is rnost encour- aging and if the interest is fos- tered through the schools and the homes we should have in a few years a generation of capable leaders in both community and Iýominion aff airs. The literary section is always a deligbt ta read with gems from Grade 1 ta Grade 8. The stories and poems are numerous and var- ied and if space permitted we would like ta reprint ail of them. However since that is impossible we have chosen a few outstand- ing pieces for your reading plea- sure. We love the little birds, We like ta hear tbem sing And when we bear their little tunes We know that it is spring. -Gary Nesbitt And heme is a touch of humour: My Dog Jack I had a little dog named Jack Who liked ta lie upon the tmack The train went by His fiesb fiew high And hit the conductor ight in the eye. -Karl Piper In the patriatic line they give us: Peace The day was as quiet as a gbost on a .hill, Andi the leaves on the tree-tops loaked very still; The sky was filled witb clouds of blackness, Making all the world feel their hearts of sadness. Then all of a sudden the bells weme inging, The streets weme filled with laughter and singing; Not even a storm would makee it cease,. The joy and happiness of the wald of peace. The leaves on tbe tree-tops began ta dance, The little animals started ta prance; And all tbe world was bappy and gay Because of this fouteenth of August Day.
