WON SILVER MEDAL IN POEM COMPETITION Miss Mary Vallentyne, daughter of Mr. Harry J. Vellentyne, Principal of | === the Ontario School for the Blind, at Brantford, has been awarded the Silver Medal, emblematic off second prize in the Ontario Horticultural Association contest for the best or- iginal poems of not more than twenty four line on the White Trillium, On- tario's floral emblem.

Hundreds of pupils submitted their verses to local collegiates and the two best were sent to a committee of judges headed by Professor George II. Clark, Queen's University, Kingston, who made the final award from over one hundred persons. \ Ontario's Emblem By Mary Vallentyne (It is a scientific fact that white is a composite of all colors and can be broken up to produce a rainbow effect, as light is broken up by a prism.) This Trillium in my hand--white-- Embodiment of color-- Dazzling splendid white, Pure White. With the scarlet of the 'maple And the crimson of the rose; With the purple shades of evening When the sturdy thistlé blows; With the emprald of the shamrock And the gold of fleur-de-lis, 'And the dusty blue of tuilights It is this, and more\t It has turquoise roo ve heaven, It has yellow of the sun, It has oraflge of the dawning When the day is first begun, There are greys of misty mornings As the fisherman sets out; There is sparkled flash of silver At the leaping of the trout: Browns and blacks of towering forest, And the sapphire of a lake: Ah, the multi-colored fancy That this simple white can make.
