 A Message from the Prestident

President Tory

It is with special pleasure that I respond to the call of the “‘Gateway”’

for a word or two for the graduation edition. When I gave you my
last message in 1917, we were all saddened by the knowledge that so
many of our students and staff were absent from us. Today, our
thoughts are gladdened by the fact that all those who can return to
us are back and though we cannot forget the horrors of the last few
years, yet the joy of reunion and being once again engaged in construc-
tive instead of destructive work is, I am sure, present with us all. I
would not wish therefore to say a word that would even suggest that a
touch of sadness should be associated with graduation day, nevertheless
it is a serious day for you of the graduating class. If you have been
gripped by the spirit of the institution and have found genuine fellow-
ship in associating with your fellow students, then you will find that
4 AU VELA, (CINE AY OE

while you are glad to have reached the graduation stage and have
become ready to begin in a more definite way to bear a share of life’s
responsibilities, you will have a loneliness of spirit and a regret at leaving
which when mellowed by time will become one of your most precious
memories. May I express the hope that when that time is reached
and you recall what we have tried to do for you here both by precept
and example, you will come to believe that no motive other than a
desire that you should receive the maximum benefit during your stay
with us has been in our minds.
There are strenuous days ahead of us in Canada. The strife of
classes will not be over until what we now profess in theory as to the
equality of opportunity and the need of social justice is a reality. The
material craze which expresses everything in commercial values is
affecting every class of society. It is to the intellectual and sriritual
vision of the few to whom cash values make small appeal that we
must look to help us reach a stage of social equilibrium. At no time
in the history of the world has it been so necessary to have pure-minded,
clean-hearted and accurate thinking men and women at work on the
world’s problems. It is not necessary for me to say to you that you
will always find a clear conscience and a noble purpose infinitely more.
satisfying than material wealth. Nevertheless, let me urge you, in
tackling the problems of your own lives and those of the communities
where your lot may be cast, not to let your vision of the things that
are worth while be obseured by the selfish materialism that you may
see in the lives of men and women around you. I am sure I can wish
you nothing better than that you will always be found on the side of
those who are seeking the common betterment of their fellow men.
We will follow with pleasure and personal pride your careers in the future.
Jels Wil, ANoiays.
President.

LAURENCE V. MILLER

“TT, V.” was born in Toronto and attended public and High Schools
there, coming to Edmonton a few years ago, where he finished his
High School training at Victoria High, and in the fall of 1912 started in
at the University, on a five year Applied Science course. The war
somewhat delayed his graduation as he was a lieutenant in the 196th
Universities Battalion, earning two gold stripes. He is justly popular
with students and staff, which is doubly to his credit in that he is
chairman of this year’s House Committee. His chosen profession is
Highway Engineering and all who know him feel assured of his success.

HOWARD TRACY EMERY

Howard Tracy Emery—a true product of Alberta—scholar, athlete,

gentleman, born in Edmonton in 1899, received his early education
here, and entered the University from Western Canada College in
1916.
This versatile young man with the merry smile and genial disposition,
has been a highly-valued member of innumerable executives—has
displayed marked dramatic ability in numerous Thespian productions
—studied human nature as a pastime—and this year hopes to receive
the Arts degree.
We are sorry to see him go, and wish him een success in his chosen
profession—Law.

ROBERT SEWELL BRUCE LILLICO

Born in an Ontario town his ambition brought him west where
for some years he was employed in the engineering department of
G.T.P. Coming to Varsity in 1914 he became president of his class
the following year. With one year to go, his course was interrupted
by two and one-half years abroad “surveying” French and Belgium
landscapes. ‘John’ has seen much of the world, is a keen observer,
a good critic of human nature and a man of sound judgment.
CECELIA BARBARA WATSON
“And in that rock are shapes of shells, and forms
Of creatures in old worlds.”
Although Cecelia was born in Ontario and received her early edu-
cation there,.she decided to become a Westerner, and came to the U. of A.
in 1916, where she has made an enviable record in academic and student
activities. Being anxious to discover the “why” and the “wherefore”
of all the bumps and cracks in nature, she has made Geology her hobby.
Those of us who have been her classmates, appreciate her quiet
humor, boundless interest in life, and her unselfish interest in others,
and we shall not soon forget our association with her.
THOMAS H. WELLS
A son of “Ye Ancient Colony,” Tom, early in life dreamt of broader
fields and after entering the teaching profession chose Montreal as
his first Canadian home. The call of the west was stronger than the lure
of the sea and the University of Alberta welcomed Tom to the freshman
class of 1913. For three years after that he was engaged in Public
School work, returning to his sophomore work in 1916. Alberta College
gave T. W. the necessary matric qualifications and his consistent
adherence to that institution won for him the honored office of ‘Senior
Stick.” To his new field of work Tom carries a rich experience and the
good wishes of his many friends.

VICTOR BYRON ROBINSON

Born Washington, D.C. In early life realizing the enormity of the
mistake of being born in such an unfortunate location, he moved to
Nova Scotia, where he completed his High School Training. In 1913
he emerged from the Nova Scotia Normal College as a pedagogue.
Because of his liking for agriculture he entered the Nova Scotia Agri-
cultural College, Truro, from which he graduated in 1916. In order
that a truer appreciation of that Eastern province might be gained
he came to Alberta in 1918 and joined the class of 1920. Alberta will
hear more of him in the future, and his many student friends wish him
all success in his chosen profession—Agriculture.

KATHLEEN FERGUSON
K. Ferguson, alias Kas, came from Calgary to Varsity in 1916,
and went in for studying on a large scale. So much so that she was
obliged to stay at home and recuperate the next year and has never
felt the same towards work since. In spite of such a disability she has
managed to complete her Varsity course with a very creditable record
and besides has enjoyed a great deal of popularity and many good times.
As a fitting climax to her Varsity career her future years will be spent
in France attending the Université de Paris.

SAMUEL A. FRANCIS
A hardy son of Newfoundland with ability, whose boyhood days were
filled with the experiences of those who “go down to the sea in ships.”
He began anew his varied career as high school principal in his home
town, then a student in honor mathematics and physics at Toronto,
next a graduate of the Camrose Normal School and again a student
at the U. of A. Since he returned from overseas, and while completing
his Arts course he has assisted in the Physics department, and taught
Mathematics in Alberta College. Sam has made many friends while
here, so every success to him in his graduate work.

ROBERT KENNEDY COLTER

Robert Kennedy “Casey” is a native son owning Medicine Hat
as his birthplace. After receiving his early education there and also
at the Calgary Normal he spent some time teaching before entering
Varsity where his graduation has been delayed by a service of two and
one-half years in the “Fighting Fifth” artillery. Casey’s college career
has been just one Presidency after another including Students Union,
1916, and K. U. of Canada at Ripon, 1919. This year he has been an
efficient President of the Hockey Club but has still found time to devote
to gentler pursuits.
MERCY B. SUMMERHAYES
This “‘citizen-of-the-world.” having gleaned the rudiments of
education from her English home, entered the University of London,
from whence she migrated to a University in Switzerland, then unerring-
ly, her international good sense directed her to U. of A. for her degree.
We suspect Genoese decent, owing to Columbus-like qualities
which led her to explore an island of B.C. (landing there circa 1917).
Her influence there would arouse the envy of any Jesuit.
Good at sport, most successful in “Dramat.’’ Vive, Mme. Perri-
chon! It has been a remarkable winter having had “Summer” here!

WILLIAM L. JACOBSON
Is a native of North Dakota but came to Alberta at an early age.
Pioneered at Stettler and in 1915 commenced on his degree course at
the O. S. A. at Olds. Entered Varsity in ’17 and has proven to be a
student of merit and a conscientious worker. “Jake” is a good sports-
man, keenly interested in hockey; played on the senior squad in 1918-
19 and has played on hockey teams throughout his energetic college
career. His goodfellowship has won him many friends who look
forward to Jake distinguishing himself in his chosen work, soils and
irrigation, in which he intends to specialize.

G. F. HARLAND BUCKLEY
A true Bluenose and prone to wander, born in the City of Halifax,
After completing the High School course he chose Agriculture as a field
of further study. He began at the Nova Scotia Agricultural College,
Truro, and later studied at Macdonald College, McGill, but while
there the call of the prairies proved so strong that he came to Alberta
to complete his course. “Buck” has made many warm friends along the
way as well as filling a number of student offices with ability. While
here he was president of the Mandolin Club, also secretary-treasurer
of the Agricultural Club. A sincere student with a creditable under-
graduate record, he will go far in his chosen profession.
AILEEN DUNHAM
came
Aileen, Vice-President of her class is a native of Missouri, but
to Canada in 1909. During her attendance at the Lethbridge High
School she distinguished herself by helping to win the Provincial Debat-
ing Cup in 1915, and also by obtaining the highest standing in the pro-
vince in Matriculation Examinations of that year. Her university
course has been a series of similar successes. She would have graduated
last year with honors in history had her course not been interrupted by
the epidemic. But what was her disappointment is our gain, and we
wish for her every success in the Post Graduate work, upon which she
hopes to enter.
EDGAR DONALD LOUGHEED
A native of the Great West, his value as a citizen was known early,
and Calgary claims his birth, in 1893. Being sturdy, and acquiring
experience as he went along, he managed to survive the climate, public
and High School, and Western Canada College, so that in 1911, McGill
was able to receive him with open arms. There followed two profitable
years (for ‘“Eddie’’?) and another at Calgary College. To broaden
his mind, and to take a course in “moderns,’’ he went overseas in 1915.
There he learned strange things, and returned to Canada in the Summer
of 1919, having acquired honor, rank and years. In order that the
U. of A. may recuperate, he has decided not to take his master’s degree,
but to go on in the profession of law. The law gains.

ALEXANDER JOSEPH COOK

Dunfermline, Scotland, is the home town of the fateful Charles I,
of the millionaire Carnegie, and of our own all-round top-notch
scholar, A. J. At the age of seventeen, he entered University, and since
then things have happened. Some of his attainments are: The first
and second year scholarship, and the Governor General’s Silver Medal
for general proficiency, in Applied Science. Six months study at the
University of Chicago. Honors in Mathematics here. Two and a
half years on the teaching staffs of the University and Alberta College.
And to cap these, he has now been appointed an instructor in Mathe-
matics at Harvard. All Varsity joins in wishing him every success for
the future.

MAY LUCY IRVING

May was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, coming to Canada with her
parents in the year 1903. Since 1905 she has made her home in Edmon-
ton, attending the Roman Catholic Separate School and entering the
University of Alberta in the Freshman year. She has proved herself
an all-round student showing a strong interest in Psychology and
Education. Being Scotch, May possesses a quiet sense of humor,
which combined with the above knowledge should easily carry her
through the many trials of her chosen profession, teaching

SYLVAN O. HILLERUD
Born at Hilsboro, N.D., came to Canada in 1904 and pioneered
near Claresholm. Before entering the U. of A. he attended the Clares-
holm High School and spent a short time at the University of Minnesota
and the C. 8. A. Before returning from overseas he assisted in the
Khaki University at Seaford, England, for a short period. While
here Sylvan has taken an active interest in sports and Y.M.C.A. work.
We understand he intends to return to his large farm to put into
practice the finer points of his profession.

DANIEL ROLAND MICHENER

“Mich” went through the public and High Schools at Red Deer
with much honor and with little work and one fair day in the fall of
1917, found him comfortably seated on the door step of the Varsity.
Whilst at the University he has taken an active interest in all the
affairs of the Institution, being a member of the dramatic society,
President of the University Y.M.C.A. and Secretary of the Students’
Union. “Roly” has played hockey on both the first and second teams
whilst many lost hearts are the direct result of his efforts with the
“dramat.”
This curly headed youth goes to Oxford this year having gained the
Rhodes ‘Scholarship for 1919, an honor which he well deserved.
CONSTANCE McFARLAND
Constance McFarland, the original “constantius sequamur’’ came
from Rome, U.S. She is still devoted to the classics. Her favorite
reading is the Saturday Post, her hero President Wilson and her pet
theory, “I think he might have given me 95.”
She has recently mapped out the heavens. The audacity! Keen
interest of less-aggressive-mere-students brought forth the astound-
ing discovery that she thinks teaching in the summer is slow, but hunting
dynosaurs on Mars would be exhilarating. Let the lesser tribes of
earth watch for her message.
JOHN RUSSELL LOVE
Born in Toronto years ago, but at an early age Irma, Alberta, recelv-
ed “Russ” and sheltered him for a while. But he wandered on to Victoria
High School in Edmonton, absorbed much knowledge there, acquired
the “Russ”, and migrated across the river to the U. of A. He is parti-
cularly famous for Rugby, the Track, and Basketball, and is a holder
of high offices in every known Association and Society. The War
engaged his attention for several years, and in 1919 he returned to
graduate in Arts, and now intends to go “back to the land.”

ELMER SAMUEL McKITRICK

A real Edmontonian, Mac is one of our early pioneers. | Educated
at V.H.S. he came to us with the ambition to graduate in 1917. This
ambition however was not as great as his patriotism, hence Mac ex-
changed his books and slide-rule for a rifle and pack. As an officer
in the 8th Batt. London Regiment, Mac dodged “whizz-bangs” and
“heavies” for some time, finally getting a “Blighty” at the Battle
of Amiens in August of 718.
As president of the Civil Engineering Club his untiring efforts
have made its initial season a huge success. We feel that his success
in structural work is assured.

GRACE HELEN DUNCAN

Grace came to Edmonton from Vankleek Hill, Ont., her birthplace.
Her public and high school education she obtained here, matriculating
from Strathcona High School in 1916. She entered the University
of Alberta in the fall of the same year. If you know Grace you cannot
readily forget her cheery disposition or unassuming and sympathetic
interest in everything around her. Nor has university life absorbed
all her interests, in which music has taken a major place.

JOHN ARTHUR CARSWELL

To be president of the senior year requires that one be both able
and popular. “Art” is quite rightly president of the graduating class.
Art was born in Oshawa, Ontario, but is truly a westerner, having
come to live in the Red Deer District at an early age. He matriculated
from the Red Deer High School and started his course in civil engineering
at the University in the fall of 1912. He enlisted with the second
university company in the Spring of 1915, and saw much service in
France with the “Pats”. Re-enlisting after discharge on account of
wounds received in action, he got his “wings” in the R.A.F. Here’s
wishing him a large share of success and prosperity.

CHARLES FREDERICK REILLY

Charlie, though born in Quebec, is a true westerner at heart. His
service abroad in the P.P.C.L.I. and other units has served, through
a broader understanding, to deepen his love and respect for the Canadian
West.
He played rugby before the war and was a sturdy member of our
1914 team, provincial champions.
As president of the Students’ Union during his final year, Charlie’s
ability as a leader has been clearly shown. His coolness and stead-
fastness have been a bulwark in the Students’ Council, and he has
stood “four square to every wind that blew” whenever the interest
of a student, or the student body has been at stake.
Good luck and best wishes from us all, Charlie.

HAZEL BLANCHE TILLOTSON

Hazel Blanche Tillotson—the girl with the million dollar smile—
has completed four years of Varsity and accomplished something
never before known in the career of any student, she has never lost her
temper. She comes up smiling from the wildest hockey match or the
stiffest geology exam. bearing the palms of victory in the form of
bruises and first classes, respectively.
Seeking other worlds to conquer she intends spending her remaining
years educating the infant warriors of the next war in the land of the
rising sun.
RALPH PERRIN FORSTER
R. P. is a native of Medicine Hat and there he got his early education.
He came to us in 1914 with his second year entrance but 1916 found
him with many another in the Army. Ralph chose the Tanks and
after service in France was in charge of the War Loan Tank ‘“‘Egbert”’,
with which he collected over £40,000,000. After a further trip to the
war he was attached to the Treasury, distributing Tanks as War
Souvenirs. After finishing his course here Ralph will pursue post
graduate work in London, England.

New Westminster, B.C. is Mildred’s birthplace, but since 1903
Edmonton has been her home. She entered University in her sopho-
more year, having taken her preparatory work at Victoria High School.
She has taken a keen interest in all Varsity activities, having played
on the senior basketball team for two years, been a member of the
Y.W.C.A. cabinet and taken part in the operas.
In her senior year she was unanimously elected to the position of
President of the Wauneita Society. In this office she has fulfilled her
duties with a capability and serene dignity which has been envied by
many. Success has attended her past. Here’s to your future, Mildred!

ROBERT P. MILLER
Robert P. Miller is a native of Indiana but at an early age decided
to make Alberta his home, so moved to Red Deer. After getting his
share of the educational attainments offered by that metropolis he
entered the University in the fall of ’13. On the outbreak of war he
offered his services a number of times before being finally accepted.
As he, like most other soldiers, objects to his exploits in France being
mentioned we shall say nothing further about them.
He returned and resumed his studies, making Geology his major
subject. He hopes to take post graduate work and great things are
expected of him.
EDITH CATHERINE McKINNON
Edith has the distinction of being the first graduate of the Univer-
sity of Alberta in Household Economics. Her course has been fraught
with difficulties. In her first year she had to take her work with the
Agricultural students, and was commonly pointed out as “the girl
who took Agriculture.” Last year she was left in doubt as to whether
she was a Soph. or a Junior, and the lack of equipment hampered
her much. But that she has risen superior to all drawbacks, none
will deny who have been guests at her dainty feeds in her ever tidy room.

FREDERICK JAMES BATSON

“Freddie” was born in Seattle, Wash., and came to Alberta in 1903.
Matriculating from Victoria High School, Edmonton, he entered the
University in 1912, with an engineering career as his goal. He was
of the class of 16 but, feeling that the Hun first needed his attention,
went overseas. After considerable service in France with the 31st
Battalion and the C.M.G.C’s he was wounded in May, 1918.
Fred’s activities in University life have been many and varied. Since
his return he has served on the executives of the Civil Engineering
Club and the Class of ’20. We are sure that his career will be a success-
ful one and we wish him all the best.
FLOSSIE CATHLEEN HENDERSON
Another Ontario girl, born in Wardsville. Graduating from the
Strathcona Collegiate Flossie entered Varsity with the famous class
17, later staying out for three years to teach. An excellent student
she has also given unstintingly of her talent in Y.W., Glee Club, Dramatic
and Wauneita Societies. She won her Varsity pin in one of the non-
resident concerts and played gn the basketball team. Leaving Varsity
Flossie will take up music and teaching in both of which she has already
distinguished herself.
FRANCIS COLLINGWOOD DICKINS
F. C. D. familiarly known as “Dick,” though born in November,
1896, at Portage la Prairie in the Province of Manitoba, is of a bright
and happy disposition. Early adopting Horace Greely’s advice to
young men to move west he came to Edmonton in 1909. Here he
attended Victoria High School until he entered the University as a
fresh Soph in 1914. Hearing the call of his country he enlisted in March,
1916, in the 218th Battalion, going overseas as Lieutenant in Sep-
tember of the same year. In March, 1917, he transferred to the Flying
Corps and served with the 12th Squadron in France. On his return
to Edmonton in February, 1919, he resumed his Arts course and entered
on the study of law, in which we predict for him a successful future.

CLARENCE HALL TOOKEY

Sundridge, Ontario, was put on the map when Clarence was born
there. The West called however and after trying to break the hearts
of the teachers in the Strathcona High School, Tookey reached us in
1912. In 1916 he committed the one foolish act of his hitherto careful
life and enlisted in the Western Universities Battalion. After sundry
vicissitudes with the 46th in France Tookey returned to us to
finish his undergraduate work, specializing in Mathematics. Further
study will fit him for the Actuarial profession where we look to him
to reduce the cost of insurance to the poor.

BESSIE OFFORD PORTEOUS

“She taketh most delight in letters and music.”
Bessie was born in Galt, Ontario, where she received her early
education. Her High School days, however, were spent at Strathcona
High. In the fall of 1916 she entered University and during her
academic career has found time to enter into many student activities
such as the Wauneita’s, Y.W.C.A. and Glee Club. She will always be
remembered for the willingness of her services and quiet unassuming
manner; indeed many of her friends are confident that she will be a
credit to her Alma Mater.

DAVID JEFFERSON TEVIOTDALE

With a name like that, ‘“Tivvy” had to be born in Scotland. He
came to the Varsity in 1913 and is known to the Old Guard as a debater
and business manager of the Gateway as well as a member of the
Students Council. 1915 found him working for King George V and
1919 saw him amongst us once more with a breastful of ribbons and a
reputation throughout the Old First Division as a daring horseman and
a good scout. ‘“Tivvy” is to pursue post graduate work in Economics.

ERNEST H. ANDERSON
Ernest was born at Norrkoping, Sweden, in 1895, completed his
public school work there, and came to Canada in 1907 to seek fame and
fortune close to nature. Pioneering was his first hobby, but later he
completed his matriculation, entering Varsity in 1915.
Since then Andy has busied himself with University activities and
one term at Camrose Normal, filling in spare moments as a country
pedagogue. At present unsettled as to his future vocation, he is still
“the wild man of the North,” seeking more wilds to conquer. We
believe his future lies in fields of action and adventure.
HELEN HOTSON
Not many in our wide Canadian west can boast of having had all
their schooling, from primary class to university graduation, in one
town. Helen Hotson, however, can claim this honor if we except her
Normal course at Camrose. She is one of the few Wauneitas to prove
the ability of her sex in mathematics and science by taking a B. Se.
degree from U. of A. She has an excellent standing in her work, winning,
in her first year, the University Club’s prize for general proficiency.
We are confident she will do well and worthily represent her Alma
Mater in her chosen field of service.
WALKER DUNHAM
Product of the “Show me” state, “Red” early displayed his astute-
ness by migrating north to Sunny Southern Alberta. To inagurate
his university career with a certain eclat he romped home as winner
of scholarships both to Queen’s and Alberta in his matriculating
year, and has never since lost his stride. Coming from the Windy
City he early developed into a forceful speaker and is this year President
of the Debating Club and our representative in the Inter-University
debate with B.C. He has been intimately connected with the Agri-
cultural Club and active in reconstructive problems. His intellect,
ability and sincerity assure him a place at the top in whatever pro-
fession he may follow.

EDWARD WILLIAM SCOTT KANE

In the fall “Ted” appears as the matinee of the tennis courts; in
the winter as an exponent of the manly sport of hockey; in the spring
he is president of the baseball club. In 1917-18 he was sporting editor
of the Gateway and how he finds time for his many other activities
is a mystery to those who do not know him. Belfast is to be credited
with producing this worthy Irishman, but she could not keep him.
His pursuit here of his chosen profession of law has been so successful
that this year the University is going to lose and the alumni receive
a good man.

BESSIE FRASER
Born in Edmonton, where she matriculated from the Victoria
High School, Betty Fraser speaks well for Edmonton-made products.
A list of her interests in the University would look like a directory of
student activities, for there is scarcely a society which has not received
her willing support or an executive committee which has not benefited
by her sympathy and quiet common-sense. Her splendid manage-
ment of the recent Conversazione won the admiration of all who were
connected with it. Betty carries with her the best wishes of all her
fellow-students.

JULIUS FERDINAND LEHMANN

Julius Ferdinand Lehmann, the youngest member of his class, first
saw the light of day in India. Not caring for the climate he decided
to come to Sunny Alberta. After graduating from the S’cona Collegiate
he entered the University in 1916. While a keen student he never-
theless has taken great interest in sports. He has held positions on both
the hockey and rugby teams, and owing to his steadfastness was a
tower of strength in both these branches of athletics. Ferdy expects
to take up post graduate work in Physics and we are safe in saying
he will make good.

MURIEL C. TREGILLUS
Muriel came to Calgary at the age of nine and attended High School
at Calgary and later the Ladies College at Reading, England.
She then enrolled at Calgary University, and is now crowning her
career by graduating from good old U. of A.
Class ’20 is proud to be able to include a woman among those of
its members who had the honor of serving overseas, for, during the war,
“Treg” put in two and one-half years hard work at a munition factory
in Woolwich. Apparently the theory that environment influences
character is thus entirely false, for her many friends are agreed that
they have never met anyone with a disposition less “explosive” or
“bomb’’astic!
ROBERT A. McNAUGHT
Robert was born on the 14th of February, 1900, in Gilbert Plains,
Manitoba. There he received his public school education. Then
the family moved to Edmonton, where Robert resumed his education
at Victoria High School. In 1917 he completed his High School
education and entered the University. In 1920 he graduates with the
idea that education does not end on graduation but is only the key to
further studies and learning. Like a true Westerner of a new country
R. A. promises to be a zealous and faithful worker for the welfare of
humanity in the coming days.
GWYNNYEFRED A. CRAIG
Just to know her leads you to suspect sunny Alberta as her birth-
place. Her a, b, e’s and Smith’s Algebra she conquered at the Olds
Public and High School.
In 1916, she entered the University as an Arts student.
Gwynny has danced her way light-heartedly through house com-
mittee uproars, students union amendments and _ elections, inter-
varsity contests, in sport—everything that constitutes a college. Now
that she has her degree, she hasn’t informed us what she holds for the
future but we are not without our suspicions.

ROBERT TALBOT HOLLIES

“Truth needs not . . . . the eloquence of oaths.”
“RT.” started out to earn his living at the age of fourteen. His work
brought him in contact with engineers, developed his interest in the
transit, and gave him the incentive to acquire a university training in
science.
Honest endeavor had enabled him to complete his junior year when
the call came to more urgent duty.
Three gold stripes on a Corporal’s tunic attest his valor in the field.
The high standard of his class work and his ability as president of the
Mining and Geological Society give assurance of his success as a mining
engineer.
JOHN NOY MARTIN
Was born in Butte, Montana, but came to Alberta in 1911. Entered
the Olds School of Agriculture in 715. While there he was awarded
the Burns’ prize in 1916 and 1917 respectively. Since coming to Varsity
he has not only maintained his high standing but-has also taken an active
interest in the Ag. Club and in the social life of the University. His
forte lies in doing things thoroughly and accurately and though just
past his ’teens John promises to be a credit to his Alma Mater. He
believes it is greater to raise Herefords than to build cities.

GUTHRIE B. SANFORD
Guthrie began life in the land of Evangeline where he won dis-
tinction as a scholarship student from King’s County Academy to
Acadia University. In 1910 he came to Alberta and graduated into
the teaching profession from Calgary Normal. His interest in Agri-
culture led him to choose Field Husbandry as his special study, which
course he entered upon in 1916.
Since then his industry and perseverance have won recognition—
having assisted in special investigation work in connection with the
experimental farm, and having given valuable services. as secretary
and president of she Agricultural Club.

CHARLES BECKER
Cy was first discovered in Medicine Hat. Being brought up in
the famous ‘‘Gas”’ town he naturally had an inclination towards Law.
Not having learned of the U. of A. he sought for truth, two years,
in Toronto. On hearing of ‘“‘Quaecumque Vera’’ he came to Alberta.
The fates then called him to higher realms and for three years he sailed
the dizzy heights from ‘Merry England to Sunny Italy.” He returned
to his terrestrial pursuits last October and seeks his green and white
sheepskin this spring. Cy believes in mixing sport with education.
He is known among athletes as a puck-chaser, a basketball tosser and
the genial President of the Boxing Club.
“May fortune be his guiding star,
When he is called up to the Bar.”

GILES H. CLARK
Born in Leeds County, Ontario, Harry is one of the Wise Men
who came out of the east. Arrived in Alberta he engaged in mission
work for a time and entered Varsity in 1914. November, 1915, saw
him a member of the 5th Universities Coy. P.P.C.L.I. He went through
the Somme only to be wounded on the Vimy front in November, 716.
Invalided home in 1917 he has since been President of the Literary
Department and President of the Rifle Club.
We wish Harry success in the field of Political Economy in which
he intends to specialize.

GEORGE H. HAMILTON
Entered University of Alberta from Columbian College in 1915,
registering in third year Arts, also registered in Alberta College. En-
listed in the spring of 716. On January 29th, 1919, he had the unique
experience of being ordained for the ministry of the Methodist Church,
on the battlefield of Waterloo. Afterwards he studied for some time
at Bristol University, England, under the Khaki University. On his
work there he is being granted his B.A. at University of Alberta. George
has been for several months in the military annex of Vancouver General
Hospital receiving treatment for a war disability. May good fortune
attend him in his calling is our wish.

Waledictory Address
All too soon the fateful hour has arrived. On the thirteenth of May,
we are thankful it is not Friday the thirteenth, we hope to receive the
precious little tin pipe with the more precious parchment. nestling
snugly within, the parchment that will remove us forever from that
happy class of the genus homo called undergraduate. And now as the
class of 1920 we are bidding our formal farewell to the younger classes,
to the professors and all the happy associations that go to make up
undergraduate life in such a university as our own. For some of the
class, happily, it is but au revoir we are saying. These expect to come
back later to continue their studies. Others while not considering
post-graduate work here will continue in close touch with the university.
Yet others of the class may be carried far afield and for many years
may not have the opportunity of looking within the halls of Alberta
or attending the infrequent gatherings of convocation. But within
us all burns such an affection for our Alma Mater that wherever we may
find ourselves in years to come our interest in the welfare and progress
of Alberta will ever bind us close to these halls in spirit if not in body.
We are much the same as countless other graduating classes that
have said the same reluctant farewells under similiar conditions. We
differ little from the half dozen or more classes that have graduated
here except in numbers. There is one distinguishing feature, however,
that I should like to mention. It is a result of the war and has been
marked in class nineteen and will be seen in the classesof the next
two or three years. In the ordinary course of events the personnel
of the graduating class is drawn from that of the freshmen class of the
four years before: But our class is not made up from the freshman
class of 1916 alone. The women are drawn largely from that source, but
such has been the effect of the war that our men are members of
‘the various classes 1912 to 1916. Some of them have given up as
much as four years to service in the army. The result is that our class
is not as homogeneous as it might have been; we are not so well ac-
quainted with each other but we have made great strides in the right
direction this last year, and I dare say that before all the graduation
ceremonies are concluded we shall have made up for all lost time.
This is a fitting time to pay our tribute to those whose war services
have kept them from graduating with this class, and to honor most
especially those of the class who laid down their lives in the war. They
are above any further need of what this university has to offer. They
have done more in a moment for the good of humanity than we can do
in a lifetime with our little graduations and petty strivings. I think
that we as a class must feel that they are with us in spirit at this time
and from the higher vantage ground of the next world will be looking
on with as keen an interest as though they were present at this our
farewell ceremony.
24 BUSTEen (GrVAC EW aAra Ye

You may be interested in knowing what our feelings are on this

occasion. We seem to have reached the first great turning-point in
our personal history. The first third of our lives, the preparation period
has sped by and we are now about to launch out into the more serious
business of life, for which we have been making ready. At such a time
our thoughts are naturally turned towards the future not only of our-
selves but of the university. At such a time also the past seems to pass
in review before our eyes. We have completed the first lap of life and
we do not seem to be much nearer a solution of the Eternal Problem.
We are inclined perhaps to philosophize a bit on the transitory nature
of life. The words of the Psalmist are brought to mind. “As for man,
his days are as grass; as a flower of the field so he flourisheth. For
the wind passeth over it and it is gone; and the place thereof shall
know it no more.” However, we can take a hasty inventory of our
past with a great deal of pleasure if not with such a realization of things
accomplished.
When we come to review our careers at the University we are natur-
ally interested in trying to estimate just what our four years here have
meant tous. Has the time spent here been worth while? Have we been
prepared for the battles of life, or are we to say we have had a pleasant
time but little more? We are sure we are not the same as we were the
day we first stood before the registrar with our applications for admission
in our hands. The change necessarily varies in extent and kind in
each of us but the fact remains that we have all been influenced very
considerably. It is too soon to attempt to estimate what the gain
has been. We probably shall never realize fully our debt to our Alma
Mater. It is also impracticable to speak for a whole class, some of
whom came here to learn a profession, others to start a life devoted
to study and possibly others to pass the time. The best we can do at
present is to gratefully consider the value and purpose of universities
in general and our own in particular.
As Dr. Alexander had it in an article in last fall’s Gateway, there
are two sides to most Canadian and American universities, the univer-
sity side and the college side. The functions of both seem to be the
same in so far as both are places where knowledge, in the widest sense
of the word, should be added to. The university is the home of research
and stands for an increase in that great store of knowledge which has
been handed down from the thinkers of the past and is the heritage
of present and future generations. ‘The University of Alberta has been
found wanting in this side of its activities because as an educational
institution we are yet in our infancy. As more of the type of student
intending to make study and research a life work graduate and associate
themselves with the University it will change its character. At present
most of our students are here to get sufficient professional training
to enable them to earn a livelihood. Once they get their degree they
are not interested in remaining for further research or investigation.
As undergraduates we have not been capable of carrying on research
 TH BG AEE WAY: 25

and our professors have not been hesitant to remind us that we are
also incapable of original thought. This is more to be regretted and as
the years go by we hope to see our Alma Mater take her place with the
other great homes of investigation and originality.
With the college side of our University, however, we have no fault
to find. Its aim is to present the great thoughts and actions of the
past and present to the students in such a manner that they will not only
accumulate a large amount of information and book knowledge but
so that they may have their views on life and their minds broadened
and strengthened. Graduates are not to be just so many walking
encyclopedias; they are to be broad-minded thinking men. The
university, as it were, lays the solid foundation of fact, shows us how
to use the tools and collect the materials and then says ‘go ahead,
build your own structure.’ We have here a very efficient staff, a great
variety of courses and ample opportunity for study, such as would
compare favorably with any Canadian university. The results in the
final analysis rest with the individual student. We can only hope
to draw out from our university course in proportion as we put into it
ourselves and our energy.
The other function of a university is to produce leaders and equip
them with all the essentials of good citizenship. In a state-maintained
university such as our own this becomes almost an obligation for if
men and women of good character and strong physique as well as of
active mind are not forthcoming from the university the state is wasting
its money. The place that Alberta’s graduates take in the future will
be the conclusive test of her success in this respect—but what are the
influences which make for this development?
Our studies have been the last consideration often during the past
term so let us make amends by putting them first now. Apart from
their technical value, these, and especially the litterae humaniores
exert a powerful influence on the opinion and ideals of the students
and especially the real student who is looking for the fundamental
lessons that lie beneath the surface.
However, the classroom has had its share of attention. There is
another side to university life that is just as important and this is the
life of the campus, with all its activities and associations. Our com-
munity life, for we are a fair-sized almost autonomous community, will
compare favorably with that of any university that I know. Not
only have we been able to utilize the results of the experiences of other
institutions; we have added something to these. in a few distinctive
features of our own. Our residence system is the envy of many less
fortunate universities who find their halls scattered over large areas.
Our system of student government is unique in university history
and is largely due to the generosity and foresight of the president, Dr.
Tory. We have been given full powers of self discipline outside of
the classrooms. The result is that not only do Albertans have full
realization of responsibility that comes from holding various offices
26 Bein Gr Ay aD ET Wie Ye

under the Students’ Union but they are trained in procedure, their
executive instincts are developed and they are not afraid to take the
proper share of community life as they have been used to it here. As
the university grows there will no doubt have to be a change in this
organization. The Students’ Union will likely have to be modelled
along parliamentary lines after our provincial government. This
will give an efficient representative system and will prepare the members
for future citizenship by familiarizing them with our system of govern-
ment.
All our organizations, athletic and literary, all our campus associa-
tions are the source of that intangible something called the college spirit,
which along with scholarship, is the rock to which any university must
anchor its reputation. Tor a university is not so much an agglomeration
of fine buildings and equipment—they have these in Ponokan institutes
—as it isan atmosphere. It is not an inorganic pile of stones but a living
thing and its breath is the spirit of the five hundred or thousand individ-
uals within. We have every opportunity and we should build up a
spirit that will distinguish Albertans even amongst other university
men. We should cultivate that most valuable type of friendship and
loyalty that is known only to university men and makes them kin the
whole world over. If we can do this the future of our university is
assured. At present there is only one small obstacle in the way and this is
because there is no common ground on which the students and professors
can get together outside of the classrooms. The students among them-
selves have this, but there is little opportunity to form such helpful and
lasting friendships as could exist between teacher and pupil. Both
parties are the losers and must feel the need.
We have possibly missed many of the good points as well as many of
the others in this hasty survey of our University and its associations,
but we have said enough to show that our only feelings for our Alma
Mater at this time are of gratitude for what she has meant to us and of
hope for what she is going to mean in the future of your classes and the
many that will come after. As the senior class this last year we have
felt more keenly than ever our responsibilities to our university. We
have guarded her few but honorable traditions to the best of our ability.
We have perhaps even added something to the foundations laid by
former classes, but our course is now run.
Farewell, and the best of luck! is all that is left to be said. All that
remains to be done is to pass on to your keeping the torch of Alberta’s
destiny, with the hope that in your hands we shall see it rise higher
and get higher in the search for “whatsoever things are true.”

JOHN G. NIDDRIE, B.A.
John G. Niddrie was born in Winnipeg
but came to Alberta where he completed his
public and high school education. His zeal
for knowledge led him to Queens where he
graduated in 1914 and incidentally won a
host of friends. Having breathed Alberta
air however he soon returned and has gained
an enviable reputation in the teaching pro-
fession. John G. is at present on the Strath-
cona High School staff. He is taking his
M.A. in Classics and Philosophy and we
predict for him a brilliant future in educational
work.

ETHEL M. LAKE, B.A

Hthel M. Lake, B.A., eraudated in Arts
from Queens University, Kingston, in 1914;
and in 1916 she took the teaching diploma
offered by the Faculty of Education there.
Since that time she has been teaching High
School in Ontario and Alberta.
By taking a Master’s degree at this Uni-
versity she is appreciably adding to the many
qualifications which will ensure the highly
successfuly career prophesied for her by all
her friends here.

PERCY F. G. MORECOMBE, B.A.

Biographies of graduate students should be
brief: One’s first degree is the supreme moment
in academic life; then the chancellor’s cryptic
words let him into the charmed circle of those
with initials after as well as before the name.
Very properly the story of his life should
be told, how he came from Ireland but was
not Irish, how academic and the highest
student honors were his. Graduate degrees
merely record a later but expected normal
achievement. P.F.G. added B.A. to his name
last year, and this story of his life was told.
This year he is M.A. Next year B.D. (the
wine is already brewed and sealed and needs
only a year in the cellar to ripen). He has
enrolled for work toward his doctorate in
religious education at Hartford Theological
Seminary. His life will then be given to the
Church in Canada.

NELIUS THEODORE RONNING, B.A.
A rising son indeed, this Norseman born
in China! Nelius came to Canada in 1908,
entering the University in 1913, and five
active years later graduated with the B.A.
degree. He then srent a year with the Royal

1919, was appointed assistant to the Registrar
of the University.
In addition to taking his Master’s work,
he has been an active worker with the Y.M.C.A
the Glee Club, and the Choir. His penchant
and hobby is the Philosophy of Religion.
Nelius intends to return to China in the near

“Just recompence of reward.”

ELIZABETH FLEMING TEVIOTDALE,

B.A.
Elizabeth took her B.A. degree last year
and yet there are many who have taken her
for a Freshette; we who know her can easily
understand that. Although she is taking her
Master’s degree this year—or rather pretends
that she believes she will not take it, (for she
is very modest about her scholastic powers)—
no one would expect to look at her that she
knows all about the “Old Red Sandstone” of
Scotland. We shall miss her very much
when she leaves us, for her cheery smile and
happy manner have endeared her to many.

Sam hails from Ontario where he graduated
from the University of Toronto with the
Prince of Wales Gold Medal. After gradua-

Faculty of Alberta College and took the degree
of M.A. at the University of Alberta.
The War lured him to France where he
served nearly two years with the Signal Section
of the 1st Canadian Infantry Brigade.
He is now head of the Matriculation Depart-

GORDON LEWIS FLACK, B:8.A.

Gordon Lewis Flack, B.S.A., is a type of untiring persistence.
Graduating in agriculture in 1919, he decided to broaden his views
by taking M.A. work.
Gordon is a real Canadian, a product of Old Ontario from which
he came West with his parents in his early youth.
Possessing a keen sense of humour and a genial nature he has made
many friends who wish him every success.

GEORGE ROBINSON, B.Sc.

A native of Leeds, England, George came to Canada in the early
days of the University, and graduated in 1915, with first rank honors
in mathematics. He was appointed instructor in that department,
later enlisting with the 196th Battn. early in 1916. After services in
France with the 46th Battn. he was given charge of the correspondence
work in mathematics with the Khaki University, a task which was
carried out with eminent success.
While in London: he took special courses at the Royal College of
Science, returning, not alone, to Edmonton in the summer of 1919—
a happy benedict.
_ He has continued his work as lecturer in Ralednics at the Uni-
versity this session, and intends to undertake further graduate studies
in the near future. A friendly friend and kind, his quiet geniality, that
rare virtue, will ever be remembered as he goes forth to new conquests.

SISTER BERNADETTE McNAMARA B.A.

Sr. Bernadette McNamara graduated in 1918, and since then
has more than fulfilled the expectation of those who knew her during
her undergraduate days. In her final year she acted as Principal
of St. Anthony’s School, attending only a small number of lectures
here. Yet few of those who could devote all their time to their studies
showed results as gratifying to the professors. Her post-graduate
work has been extra-mural, so that we have not been able to enjoy her
presence with us.

SR. ETHELBURGA McNAMARA, B.A.

Sr. E. McNamara graduated with Class ’18, and since then has
proceeded to her. Master’s degree extra-murally. Much to our dole,
to those of us who know her well, has been this attendant circumstance.
It would have been much pleasanter to have had her with us. Her
culture, her cheeriness, her fellow-feeling in a difficulty, helped us to
adhere to friend Matthew’s rule ‘‘of seeing life.’ (No need to give
the quotation in tota. We’re sure you know it.)
We feel sure that St. Mary’s school, Calgary, is surely to be con-
eratulated on having Sr. McNamara as principal.

Editorial
The year 1919-1920 has witnessed the dawn of a new era in the
history of the University. With the registration more than double that
of any previous year, and reaching into four figures, we feel that the
tide has turned and we are now starting out on a voyage of great possi-
bilities, inspired with great hopes for the future of the U. of A.
ith the signing of the Peace Treaty and the demobilzation of our
Canadian forces we have had the great pleasure of welcoming home a
large number of our former students and staff as well as many additions
to both these sections of our University life. There are many who are
not with us and who will never return. They “loved, and were loved,
and now they lie ‘In Flanders fields’.” We only trust we may build
a structure worthy of the foundations laid down by these great champ-
ions.
Needless to say our returned veterans have been very much in evid-
ence in all phases of our activities, and their influence is a most im-
portant, if not a dominating factor of our various societies. Farly
34 HG ATW.ACY!

in the year a Returned Soldiers’ Association was formed to look after

the interests of the “vets.”’. Mr, Jim Nichol is the “O.C.” of a very
capable executive who are evolving a plan to materially assist members
of the association who are unable to complete their courses on account
of financial embarrassment. President Tory was the initiator of this
scheme, and from his wealth of experience with the soldier-student
overseas, we are confident of something worth while being accomplished.
Some of the functions curtailed during the war have been reinstated
this year, as well as the formation of several new societies. The great
difficulty facing our student today is to decide as to which club he wishes
to support as it is impossible to attempt an active interest in them all.
A Schedule Committee has rendered excellent service in arranging
dates for the various events throughout the year, with the result that
very few complaints have been made regarding the conflicting of
important events.
A committee appointed by the Students’ Union, and very cleverly
piloted by Mr. J. D. Mothersill, has just completed new constitutions
for the governing of our various activities, and these will come into
operation on being endorsed by the Committee on Student Affairs,
having already received the approval of the student body.
The Athletic Association has received the greatest impetus from
our increased registration and great strides have been taken towards
linking up our western Universities in the realm of sport. The visit
of the hockey team from the University of Manitoba will go down
in the annals of history as the beginning of a new spirit of sportsmanship
among our green and gold supporters.
We feel justly proud of our hockey and basketball teams and very
much regret that we have not been favored with pictures of these.
There would appear to have been some miscalculation of the finances,
or is it Jack of interest that leads the managers of these teams to refuse
to publish photographs of the players who have been such a credit to
our institution. Surely the Athletic Association received a fair share
of the budget, when the apportionments were made last Fall. But it
remains for the Women’s Athletics to demonstrate how things should
be managed. We trust next year’s Athletic Executive will see to it
that a small balance is reserved in order to give the teams the publicity
they deserve.
The Literary Department has also contributed very largely to the
success of our student life during the past year. The Dramatic and
Debating Societies, Orchestra, Glee, Mandoline and Writers’ Clubs
have easily eclipsed all past efforts and have been worthy a much greater
support than they have received from a large percentage of our student
body. Their various activities are reported in detail on another page.
One of the outstanding events of the past year has been the Des
Moines Conference at which some thirty U. of A. delegates united
with about eight thousand representatives from colleges and univer-
sities all over North America. We shall never fully realize the signi-
 ERT) Gea A Ee Wie eey 35

ficance of this gathering and its influence on our student body as well
as the personal inspirations which so many have received either at the
conference or since the delegates returned.
As the curtain falls on this closing act we wish briefly to review
what has gone before. Many times we have regretted undertaking
the responsibility of this work, and more than once we have been inclined
to hand over the reins to some more experienced hands. We have
realized wherein we have failed but we very much appreciate the
splendid co-operation which we have enjoyed at least from most sections
of our readers. We shall not soon forget the contributions of the
Crystal Gazer and his Musings of a Soup Wagon, and much regret
that owing to sickness he was compelled to sever his connections with
us before the end of the term. We trust that next year, with the
advent of a tri-weekly and literary supplement, other writers of the
calibre of ‘Fergie’ will come forward and help make this new venture
a splendid success.
As we become once more a mere student and sink into oblivion
in the great turmoil of college life we feel the experience has been very
profitable, and the burden considerably lessened by a very efficient
and faithful staff who have been ever ready to assist in every possible
way.
As a staff we wish to acknowledge the kind words of appreciation
which we have received from various members of the faculty and the
student body. To those whose patience has been so sorely tried and
who have displayed such long suffering of our weekly infliction, we
tender our deepest sympathy and share with them the sigh of relief
that this is our last outrage. We trust that next year will see a
renaissance in Gateway history, and our best wishes go with the new
‘editor and his staff.

Gateway Staff 1910

Early Gateway History

“To the number of troubles under which a long suffering student
body labors is to be added yet another with the publication of this,
the first issue of ‘The Gateway’.”’
So runs the opening sentence of the leading editorial in the very
first issue of the Gateway, which beais the date, November 21st, 1910.
It seems a far cry from the little monthly magazine of that time to the
splendid weekly which has for several years now acted as the vehicle
for student aspirations and the mirror of student opinion.
Two attempts were made before the Gateway actually came into
being. The publication of a student periodical was discussed seriously
during the session 1909-10, and indeed the editorial staff was organized
and the copy for the first issue prepared, but the gods of high finance
were not sufficiently propitious, and the venture was postponed for a
year.
But with the session of 1910-11 a beginning was made in real earnest.
What a daring undertaking it was is understood when we remember
that there was only about.one hundred students in attendance. But
38 ene Ceara Hy Wale xe

these were days of great faith and confidence in the future. Editorial
and business staffs were appointed and went to work. The business
men of the city gave generous support to the new enterprise—they too
had an eye to the future—and November, 1910, saw yet another college
journal brought to birth.
A scanning of the issues of that first year brings to the mind of
the writer, who was first editor-in-chief, memories numerous and varied,
some of sadness; some of pride. Of the staff, two, C. W. Ritson, first
business manager, and Perey Young, Editor of the Y.M.C.A. section,
are buried on the field of honor, and Horace Miller, whose clever cartoons
were the joy of the students of those days, died several years ago. Other
members of the staff are scattered far and wide, playing varied parts,
but all doing faithful work in their respective fields. Three others
in addition to the two already mentioned served overseas, and two
were casualties, H. G. Nolan, Rhodes Scholar, being wounded, and
L. Y. Cairns, gassed. The writer was privileged to serve with the Khaki
University of Canada, and Miss Agnes Wilson went overseas as a
V.A.D.
Many difficulties surrounded the work of that pioneer year. Scarcely
had work been commenced when a terrible epidemic of typhoid broke
out. Of the students, ten contracted the disease and one died. Two
of the Gateway Staff, Mr. Ritson, business manager, and A. L. Cald-
well, the popular Clarence of later years, and then Sports Editor, had
severe attacks, and were unable to carry on. But in spite of drawbacks,
six issues were published. Perhaps one who was actively concerned
in their production may be pardoned for expressing the opinion that
the quality of material in those first issues has not been excelled since.
The balance between fun and more serious material was well maintained.
The “Letters to Dad,” cartoons, and racy write-ups of athletic events,
together with local hits, provided the lighter elements, while the dis-
cussions of current events and literary contributions provided ballast.
Of the editorial efforts modesty for bids the writer to offer any comment.
One might be pardoned for suggesting that the change from a monthly
to a weekly has not been an unmixed blessing. As a news sheet a
weekly is almost useless, while the rush of weekly publication by a
volunteer staff makes the maintenance of high literary standards very
difficult. The satisfactory alternative seems to be either a monthly
or a daily.
The session of 1911-12 saw a vigorous development. The student
body was largely increased, and financial support from all sources
was much more generous. The Alberta College magazine, “Signa
Alberta,”’ ceased publication, and more staff talent was made available.
The editor-in-chief of the previous year was now president of the
Students’ Union, and W. Davidson, with an able staff, became editor,
with G. D. Misener as business manager. This year saw the Gateway
achieve a financial success. Seven issues including the first special
graduating number were produced at a total cost of more than twelve
 THE GATEWAY 39
hundred dollars, all of which was met from current revenue. The year
was not without its problems. The editor-in-chief contracted typhoid,
and three issues had as a consequence to’ be produced with the old
chief in charge. With the conclusion of this second year, the early
history of the Gateway may be said to conclude. Its record since
then is known to all, and no event of the week is more interesting
than the appearance of the student paper, which is as it should be.
The pioneer editor views this progress with intense gratification, and
wishes the suggested venture of a tri-weekly newspaper every success,
and predicts for it a useful and popular career.

The Latest Development in Gateway History

With the advent of a new year, The Gateway enters on a new
stage in its history when the present weekly will be turned into a tri-
weekly with which will be incorporated a monthly magazine of real
literary worth. In attempting to put out a bona fide newspaper and
a magazine which can be put on a par with the other college magazines
The Gateway staff faces one of the biggest responsibilities ever under-
taken by a college paper. At the present time the only daily in Canada
is that put out by McGill and the only tri-weekly is that put out by
Toronto—neither of which papers also publish a magazine. However
with an increasing realization that she is one of the large universities
of Canada, Alberta is ready to attempt the impossible.
The tri-weekly will be a genuine newspaper and will be run as such.
Owing to numerous difficulties a weekly paper cannot attempt to cover
the field of news in the university. The need for a paper in the univer-
sity which can give encouragement to literary productions is just as
badly needed as is a newspaper.
It is a spectacular undertaking; its opponents claim it is impossible;
but if it makes good it is certainly worth while.

A. B. Harvey, Rhodes Scholar D. R. Michener, Rhodes Scholar

ALAN BURNSIDE HARVEY

This Rhodes Scholar is a Westerner by birth and except for several
trips abroad has spent much of the twenty-one years of his life in the
West. His public and high school education was closed by his matri-
culating third highest in the province and since coming to the University
in 1915 he has continued, if not eclipsed his early record. His first
year’s work won him the General Proficiency Scholarship, his last the
Bennett and the Gordon Stanley Fife prizes in history and his whole
university record, and more especially his high standing in the honors
history department made him the deserving recipient of that greatest
of scholarships, the Rhodes.
His prominence in the Orchestra, the Debating Society and parti-
cularly in the Dramatic Society, of which he was the first student-
president, made him a well-known figure on the campus and in 1919
he was elected Chief Justice of the Students’ Court. Alan enlisted
in the R.A.F. at the age of nineteen but he returned in time to graduate
with his class.
We feel safe in saying that in sending Alan Harvey to represent us
in Oxford we are sending a man who will hold his own with the best
brains of that ancient and far-famed institution.

DANIEL ROLAND MICHENER

“Mich” was born in Lacombe, on the 19th of April, 1900, but
moved early in life to Red Deer, where he obtained his early education.
He distinguished himself throughout his course there, winning the Gold
Medal for General Proficiency for four consecutive years in High
 G1 AH), GeeAwsTee) WasNuns 41

School. Entering the University as a “fresh soph” in the fall of 1917,

he has maintained the same high standard of scholarship. In the
summer of 1918 he enlisted in the Royal Air Force, and returned to
work at the University shortly after the signing of the armistice. At
the close of his third year he shared in the award for the Bennett Prize.
His interests have not been confined to scholarship. In 1919 Mich-
ener won his large “A” in hockey, and has taken a keen interest in other
branches of Athletics. He has also held office in the Rifle Club and
Y.M.C.A., and has taken part in many of the activities of the Literary
Department. This year he holds the important office of Secretary
of the Students’ Union and is a member of the Committee on Student
Affairs. It can be confidently predicted that as an athlete, a scholar
and a man, Michener will be a worthy representative at Oxford of the
University of Alberta.

ALBERTA TO OXFORD
(On the Occasion of Roland Michener’s Election to a Rhodes’
Scholarship)

A vision sometimes comes, as in a dream,

Of walls that rise in ivy-mantled pride
Where peaceful Isis slowly winds its tide
And Cherwell glides its water-lilied stream;
I hear the chimes, those haunting, solemn chimes
That float from Magdalen’s and St. Mary’s towers
Across the shady calm of garden-bowers
And lull the soul in dreams of ancient times.

Fair Oxford! Britain’s brightest star,

Whose glory shines, a lure to high desire,
Throughout the world from East to farthest West,
Sweet sister, welcome one who comes from far,
Drawn to thy halls by yearning to aspire;
Oxford receive him,—Alberta sends her best!
—J. T. JoNzEs.

Hleds ’22
Another third year in Medicine has come and gone. It was by
one hundred per cent. the largest that has passed through this Institu-
tion. Its superiority however was not confined entirely to numbers,
for judging from the spirit of the class, their splendid attitude towards
all of the interests of university life, including their work, they compare
favorably with those gone before.
The year has been a pleasant one indeed, uninterrupted as it has
been by an epidemic such as we had last year, with the enlargement
of our teaching staff, the growing facilities for laboratory work and the
fine social life which has characterised our whole faculty. These to-
gether have rendered the year not only pleasant but extremely profit-
able.
Thus, this year has not only measured up to the standards set by
the preceding years but it has in many respects surpassed them. This
was due largely to the fact that early in the term we organized and
under the leadership of our able president Mr. Harry Pearse with his
loyal executive, we achieved results which to the most sanguine would
have seemed increditable.
The year regards with special favor the appointment of Dr. Rankin
as Dean of Medicine. The splendid work already accomplished by
Dean Rankin in this capacity, vouches for the wisdom shown in his
appointment.
In saying good-bye we wish to express to our Alma Mater our very
deep affections and high esteem. We have formed associations which
we hope shall not readily be broken and which shall always remain
very precious to us.

D—n—h—m—Now fellows you should treat the faculty with

respect according to their rank.
M—c—d—l—d—Which one is the rankest?

Fresh—I read where a rich Calgary business man turned his son
out of doors lately because he wouldn’t pay his house rent.
Soph.—Quite a striking incident of “pay-rental” affection.

THE TUCK SHOP

I love to sit in the Tuck Shop

And watch the fellows there;
The rugby star with his broken nose,
The dude with his slicked-down hair,
The study-bug with his horn-rimmed specs,
The nut with his sickly grin;
And the fellow who feels for his pocket-book
When a fair co-ed trips in.

I love to sit in the Tuck shop

And hear what they have to say.
Such as ‘What did we have at Math. 58?”
And ‘‘Wasn’t that rotten play?”
“ve all of mine booked for the Freshman hop.”
“Gee whizz, what she said, sure hurt.’’
“Oh, Jack, could you spare us the odd two-bits?”’
“He’s cheaper to her than dirt.”

I love to sit in the Tuck shop

When the fags are all alight,
And the ex-buck shoots the ex A.B.
The tale of his last big fight.
While the freshmen squabble among themselves
As to who is to stand the treat,
And the wheezy “gram” grinds out sundry tunes
To the beat of the tapping feet.

I'll love to sit in the Tuck Shop

When the “bunch” has gone away,
Anda stranger’s hand, cranks the gramaphone,
That the old crowd used to play.
For I know when ‘‘The Darktown Strutter’s Ball”
Has started its noisy din,
The ghosts of the fellows I used to know
Will have to come trooping in.

Literary Department
The Literary Department has just completed one of its most success-
ful years. This department consists of the Glee Club, Orchestra,
Dramatic Society, Debating Society and the Mandolin Club, the latter
being newly formed this year.
The department was very sorry to have to accept the resignation of
its president Mr. Arthur Donaldson owing to his illness but were very
fortunate, however, in securing Mr. James Nicol as president in Mr.
Donaldson’s place.
It will not be necessary to say much concerning the various clubs
and societies under the Litery Department as the work of each of them
is reviewed elsewhere in this issue, but the Literary Executive would
like to express its appreciation for the great assistance which the
orchestra has given so willingly at each “Lit.”
The first general meeting was held on November 6, 1919. Dr.
H. M. Tory our president, whom we are so glad to have back with us
again after an absence of two years, gave us a very interesting address
on the “Kahki University.” The remainder of the program was
provided by the University Orchestra and the McDougall Church
Choir under the direction of Mr. Arthur K. Putland.
46 THE GATEWAY

The next meeting was held on November 21, which was “George
Eliot’s Centennial” night. Dr. Broadus gave an excellent address on
“The Art of George Eliot.”’ Some musical items were provided by
the Orchestra, Miss Avis Hibbard and Mr. Cedric Edwards and a
couple of readings from George Eliot’s works were given by Miss Ella
Wilson and Miss Margaret McMillan all of which were very much
appreciated.
The December meeting was held on the 12th, when the entire
program was given by the pupils and staff of Alberta College North
and South. Mrs. Ethel Reese Burns’ Junior Forbes-Robertson Amateur
Players presented the “Burglar” in very good style.
The first program in the New Year was given by the Orchestra
and Glee Club assisted by Mr. J. J. Walker. This was the first appear-
ance of the Glee Club under their new leader Mr. Barford and they
showed a marked improvement since last year.
The next Lit was given by the Dramatic Society on Feb. 5. They
presented three plays, ‘Barbara’s Wedding,” “The Artist’? and the
“Dear Departed.’’ Each one of these plays was admirably presented
but special mention might’ be made of the first one in which each did
his or her part very successfully.
February 27 was the Inter-High School Debate carried out under
the direction of the Department of Extension and which has not been
held since the beginning of the war. The subject for debate was
“The League of Nations” and the competing teams were Red Deer
and Crescent Heights, Calgary. Crescent Heights won although both
teams showed very good oratorical ability and gave one of the most
enjoyable nights of the year. During the time the judges were out
preparing their decision the Lit provided a short musical program.
Instead of the regular Lit night on March 12, the Medical Club
presented with very great success, “The Doctor” a farce in three acts
by Charles Townsend and a sketch “Clinical Surgery a la Mode,”
before a large and very appreciative audience. Great credit is due the
Meds for the way in which they carried out the whole performance.
On Wednesday, March 24, the Glee Club Concert was held. The
music was of a very high standard and was produced with very good
style and clear enunciation.
Owing to the great success of the opera “Trial by Jury” last year
the Literary Department decided to put on another this year. The
one chosen was the “ Nautical Knot,” by W. Rhys-Herbert.
The scene was laid on the quay at Barnstaple where all
the
sailor lads were hopelessly in love with J ulia, who scorned them
all.
A wandering artist Barnabas Lee came to town and fell in love with
Julia. Complications arise which are very amusing. However all the
tangles are straightened out in the end with promises of many happy
weddings in the near future.

Glee Club
The Glee Club commenced operations immediately the fall term
opened, and the first practice was held in the Athabasca Lounge on
October 22, with Mr. Vernon Barford as instructor. Succeeding
practices, seventeen in number were generally held in Convocation Hall
between the hours of eight o’clock and half past nine on Wednesday
evenings. It seems a great pity that the large numbers attending
early in the year could not continue to do so to the end. However,
it has been a very profitable year on the whole. A concert was
put on in conjunction with the orchestra on January 16; several numbers
were contributed to the program given at the Conversazione. The
final concert of the year was staged along with the orchestra on Wednes-
day evening, March 24, and was a huge success.
The Executive for the year consists of: Hon. Pres., Dr. Sheldon ;
Pres., Arthur K. Putland; Vice-Pres., Miss Tregillus; Sec., Edw. G.
Hollies; Librarian, Wilbur W. Bell; Committee, Miss M. Stevenson.

Dramatic Society
The Dramatic Society consists of students, faculty members, and
their friends who are interested in drama to the extent of viewing
a play as something more than ‘going to the show;” for them drama
is an art worthy the study of serious people. It is to gain and spread
a proper appreciation of the drama that the Dramatic Society exists.
The study during this session was of modern drama, and at the
monthly meetings typical plays were read, the whole series being
introduced by Mr. Stanley Smith in an address on “Some Aspects of
Modern Drama.” This method of becoming acquainted with plays
is very enjoyable, almost as much so as seeing them actually produced
on the stage. The public performances of the Society during the
closing season were of “Barbara’s Wedding”’ (Barrie), “The Artist”
(Malleson), “The Dear Departed” (Houghton), “The Rose with a
Thorn” (Graham), and “Joy” (Galsworthy). The first four of these
50 TH WeG APR WAY

have been reported in former issues of The Gateway. “Joy” was a

splendid success and is to be reckoned among the Dramatic Society’s
triumphs both in the acting and in the stage-setting. The caste, which
was one of the best all-round castes we have had, was as follows:

Two other plays that were produced recently, but not by the
Dramatic Society, deserve mention. They. are “Alice Sit-by-the-fire”’
(Barrie) presented by the Women’s University Club, and “Le Voyage
de M. Perrichon” (Labiche) by the Department of Modern Languages.
Both were assisted in the staging by the Dramatic Society. This
list makes a fine record that is not equalled by any other Canadian
college except Toronto University, whose Players’ Club, housed in the
palatial Hart House and having the services of a paid director,has been
doing splendid work.
The Dramatic Society recently became affiliated with the British
Drama League; (together with Birmingham and Oxford Universities,
it was the first college organization to join). Another innovation is
the holding of competitions in writing plays and essays. It is too early
to know what success will attend this experiment. Plays must be
submitted at the end of October, and they may be of any length and on
any subject. All students are eligible to enter the competition.
Confident of the value of its work the Dramatic Society will con-
tinue with renewed energy next year and great hopes are entertained
for the future.

Mandolin Club
It
You have not heard much about this organization this year.
every
is, as it were, a freshman at this university and as it behooves
freshman to do, we have deferred greater activity till we are past the
infant stage.
Possibly you have seen a body of youths set out from Athabasca
Hall, each with a mandolin under his arm. They are on their way to
practise. These practises are under the direction of Mr. Elmer Luck.
Much of what the club has become is due to the untiring energies of
Mr. Luck. J. G. Sillak officiates at the piano. Although he is busy
with the orchestra he ean give us an hour or so of his time now and
again.
The first mandolinists are: W. 8. Budd, T. Tidball, W. Matthews,
H. B. Cannon. The seconds are: G. F, H. Buckley, J. Doughty,
J. MacDonald and E. W. Davis.
The club chose for its officers this term, G. F. H. Buckley as president
and E. W. Davis, secretary-treasurer.
The clubs’ program of performances this year has of necessity been
limited. The clubs’ “debut d’eclaire’ took place one evening in
March when it played two numbers for the soldiers at the con-
valescent home. Since then the club has played for the Kiwanis
Grotto and for the Dramatic Society when they pro-
Club, Dekan
duced “Joy.” And what is the moral to be gained from this?—it is,
“All those who wish to have a good time next year, secure mandolins
or guitars, practise during the summer and be ready for the fall drive
of the club.”

The Orchestra
The University Orchestra has been an admitted success this year.
At one of the early meetings of the Literary Executive Mr. Chadsey was
elected President, and after the various members of the Orchestra
had become acquainted they elected the following officers:

Miss Robb was appointed Conductor and under her baton many very
pleasing numbers were rendered. Recently Mr.. Edwards has taken
charge and under him things have progressed most satisfactorily.
The University has been particularly fortunate this year in that
there have been so many recruits to the Orchestra from the Freshman
class. They will continue with us and we can rest assured of having
the very best in music for the next few years at least.
Besides playing for occasional informal dances the Orchestra pro-
vided some very excellent music for the Literary programs and for
all other affairs where an orchestra would naturally be expected to
assist. Next year it is hoped that it will put on a special program
of its own. As an expression of the appreciation of this part of the
University it is suggested that a more substantial amount of money
be appropriated for its use next year. A new library is sorely needed.

Debating Club
Along with the revival of other student activities the year 1919-20
saw the formation of a debating society. Early in the year a meeting
was held. Mr. Walker Dunham being elected president for the session.
A scheme of activities was drawn up which took the form of a debate
and forum to be held on alternate weeks. The student body was
cordially invited to become members. We were assured that every
member would be allowed to take an active part, it being the society’s
object to promote public speaking and an interest in public affairs.
Thanks is due to the Department of Extension and the faculty for
supplying subject-matter and criticism. The subjects chosen were
knotty problems which gave great promise of hot discussion. This
was, perhaps, not realized as much as some expected. Small attendance
due to the hour set was largely responsible for this.
Negotiations were entered into with the University of British
Columbia for an inter-provincial debate. The culmination of
the society’s activities was the series of trial debates by which the
Alberta representatives were chosen, Messrs. Dunham and Scroggie
being the successful contestants.
The debate, which was on Parliamentary vs. Presidential Govern-
ment was held in Vancouver on March 20th. No greater tribute
can be paid to British Columbia than to say they triumphed over the
Alberta team. It is to be hoped that this debate is the seed from
which a Western League will spring. If Alberta it to occupy a promin-
ent place in that league her talent must be developed. This can only
be done by the students themselves who should for this reason if for
no other support the society in the coming years.

Department of Modern Lanquages

The presentation of a French play had more than an ordinary
significance this year. Those who were present in Convocation Hall
on 15th March and witnessed the performance of ‘Le Voyage de M.
Perrichon” must have been possessed of a sluggish imagination, if their
minds did not travel back over the six amazing years which have
elapsed since the production of the last French play. In the spring of
1914 few would have dared to prophesy that for a period of several years
France was to be the home of a large Canadian Army and—more than
that—the centre of the hopes and fears of tens of thousands of Canadians
living in every part of the Dominion. Yet so it was, and if today
France and the French people and the French language are living
 THE GATEWAY 55

realities to many a Canadian to whom before 1914 they would have

been but lifeless ideas we can at any rate thank the great world-war
for bequeathing to us at least one good thing.
This perhaps was the predominant spirit of an evening which was
essentially French in its expression and its appeal. Fully two-thirds of
the audience were drawn from the French speaking community of
Edmonton. For many of these it was their first visit to the University
and when at the end of the play the Jesuit Father mounted the stage
and expressed the pleasure of the entire audience at this really brilliant
revival of the French drama in the Province of Alberta, there were many
who felt that the University had been the means of forging yet another
link between French and English-speaking Canadians.
“Te Voyage de M. Perrichon” which was first produced in 1860 in
Paris is a striking example of the best type of French Comedy. Of
the several score of plays that Labiche wrote it is probably the best
known. It is certainly very familiar to High School and University
students of the West, by whom it is one of the most commonly read
French texts. The central theme of the plot is that a man feels more
friendly towards those who are under an obligation to him than towards
those to whom he is under an obligation. Perrichon saved—or at any
rate thought that he had saved Daniel, and every time Perrichon saw
Daniel he was reminded of his own heroism. Armand on the other
hand had saved Perrichon, and every time he appeared Perrichon
was annoyed by his sense of obligation towards him. Round this
idea are woven a whole series of extremely ludicrous incidents, chief
of which perhaps are Perrichon’s excitement during his travels (a
weakness so common to human nature that it strikes home) and his
combination of bombast and cowardice when forced with a prospect
of a duel with the major.
There can be no question that the performance was one of great
merit. The cast was extremely even and there were no weak spots.
Mr. Appleton, as Perrichon, had far the heaviest part to carry. There
were few scenes of any importance when he was not on the stage. His
interpretation of the French bourgeois of the later 19th century was a
fine piece of work and few would quarrel with the decision to award him
the prize which was given to the best actor at the end of the performance.
Mr. J. Richard and Mr. A. B. Harvey as Armand and Daniel spoke
amazingly good French and their acting left little to be desired. Miss
Summerhayes gave a masterly rendering of Mme. Perrichon. By many
it was thought that her acting was one of the chief features of the play.
Miss Marshall’s accent was hardly Parisian but she made a very charm-
ing Henriette. So much was got out of the minor part of Majorin by
Mr. R. A. Cameron that one wished he had been allotted a more import-
ant role. Mr. K H. Broadus fulfilled the functions of a pugnacions
Major of the Zouaves with considerable success, nor should Mr. J,
McClung as a railway official and an inn-keeper be forgotten.
The staging of the play was arranged by Professor James Adam and
56 EEG A tH Wed Ye
the scenery for the first act, the Gare de Lyon at Paris,
was particularly
successful. A number of travellers who passed backwards and forwards
on the stage, several colored placards sent out from France by the P.L.M.
and advertisements of well-known Parisian music halls rendered
the
whole setting of this act very realistic.
That the play was a success is largely due to Professor Edouard
Sonet. Both the actors and he are to be congratulated on a dramatic
performance which was worthy both of the University of Alberta
and of
ourmany French friends both here and on the other side of the Atlantic.

Athletics
In looking over the Athletic programme of the last year, the amount
of money granted us by the Students’ Union and seeing what we have
accomplished, the association can rest well satisfied with the terms
work.
Heretofore practically all athletic competitions were confined more
or less to contests with local teams. Last Christmas arrangements
were made for an Inter-University series in Hockey with Manitoba
and Saskatchewan. The result from the point of college spirit was
wonderful, nothing like it had ever occurred in any series before. Every
Varsity student was at these games and the Arena echoed the com-
plimentary yells. Manitoba—Alberta. Saskatchewan—A lberta.
The formation of the Western Canadian Universities Athletic Union
has been the biggest step yet attempted. The constitution was drawn
up in February at the Macdonald Hotel, representatives being present
from Saskatoon and Winnipeg, and next year all inter-university
athletics will be under the control of this body.
This year university teams played in the finals of six championship
series, The Track team scored by far the most points at the provincial
indoor meet and the second Hockey team won out in the city league,
also being declared Northern Alberta Intermediate Champions. The
other Varsity teams were all unfortunate in the final stages, after
58 THE GATEWAY
brilliant exhibitions in the qualifying rounds. Good coaching has
shown itself in all phases of our sport, and a new scheme is being evolved
whereby it may be made possible to bring to this institution the services
of a professional coach. Such a system put McGill considerably on
the football map this last session.
The Inter-faculty Hockey League and also the House league has
had a most successful season. The Inter-faculty Hockey League closed
with Science, Law and Agriculture in the order named. In the Basket-
ball House League, Teskey and his men, Burgess, Muir, Sanderson and
Lefsrud won out in the finals against Jensen.
The Rifle Club has carried on all term and closed with John Sillak
and D. Simpkins highest in averages.
For the Track Club, the weather man did his worst last fall, and it
was impossible to hold a meet. However, they are at the time of writing
whipping into shape for the Inter-University Meet to be held in Saska-
toon next October.
On March 11th, the Athletic Banquet and Smoker was held and
from every standpoint was one of the most successful yet. Large
A’s were presented to members of the Senior Hockey and Football
squads. Small A’s to the second team. Championship A’s to Muir
and Tait, won at the Provincial Meet, and medals to Sillak and Simp-
kin.
This year has been the linking up of the pre-war brand of sport with
the future. From every standpoint we can say that this has been
accomplished and the next few years, we hope will put the U. of A. on
the Athletic map of Canada forever.

RUGBY
Our squad entered the league which had been revived after lying
dormant during the years of war.
The preliminary training was carried out under Mr. McRae but
later the team was handed over to Roy Stevens, and great things were
accomplished in rounding out a real strong team.
After a very successful career in the Provincial League we only
lost the championship to Calgary Canucks by a close margin after a
very hard-fought game. With most of the players returning next
year we are hoping to have a team of first rate calibre in the field. We
much regret our loss in the departure of our coach, as Roy was largely
responsible for our success. Keep your eye open for a good successor.

HOCKEY
This year has seen the regeneration of many branches of sport
but nowhere was this more apparent than in the realm of hockey.
Every effort has been made to put hockey back on its pre-war basis
and to make it the premier sport, and we believe this winter to be but
the beginning of a new era of better university hockey.
 THE GATEWAY 59

The part which hockey plays in our athletic life is nowhere better
shown than in the keen interest taken this year in the inter-faculty
contests. Never before have so many students taken part and this
popular winter pastime is becoming more and more the absorbing
interest of all the students. The inter-faculty contests this year and
in the future will serve as a “bush” league for the development. of
stars of the first rank thus ensuring keen competition yearly for places
on the first team. In fostering and encouraging inter-faculty contests
in the future, we believe lies the hope of having a senior team capable of
producing a real Allan Cup brand of hockey.

BASKETBALL
The basketball team got away to an excellent start late in the
fall. A wealth of very promising basketball players turned out giving
Coach G. Roy Stevens excellent material from which to form his team.
The basketball club were very fortunate in being able to obtain such
an able experienced player to whip their team into shape. ‘To our
coach we give no end of credit for the successes which crowned the
efforts of our team during the playing season.
By Christmas the team was “rearing to go.” The Calgary All-
Stars, Edmonton All-Stars, Winnipeg All-Stars and the University
of Saskatchewan all attempted to humble our pride, but failed. Then
misfortune camped on our trail. Our coach was forced to leave us
in order to continue his profession in the East; a number of our players
received injuries which either put them out of the game for the rest
of the season or severely crippled their play. Not content with treating
us so harshly Dame Fortune continued to hide her face from us; in
all those little breaks of luck which make all sport so uncertain, the
University of Alberta basketball team came off second best. The
light of what we had been became dimmed by the shadow of what we
are.
With new lessons learned, the experience of another year added to
our knowledge and with the determination to win those laurels which
slipped from us, we are looking forward to next winter when once again
the leather sphere will drop through the iron hoop into the swishing
net with the regularity of old.
SOCCER
With the return of so many Old Country “kickers” an effort was
made last Fall to revive the interest, in Association Football. The
abundance of material led to two strong teams being formed representing
Freshmen and Upper Classmen. A schedule was drawn up to be played
off in competition for the Inter-collegiate League Cup and we had great
hopes of regaining the trophy from “A. ©.” However, with the early
advent of winter and a heavy fall of snow the league schedule had to be
abandoned with only one game played.
A challenge was also received from University of Saskatchewan
to play off for Inter-Varsity honors but the early snow also prevented
60 GE Wi Gea ae Be Wi Aye

this game being played. We would remind next years’ executive

that U. of S. have a strong aggregation and hope to be in good form
after a summer in the Saskatoon City League. But we need have no
fear with the players we have in view if only the Athletic Executive
will give Soccer a fair share in next year’s budget.
THE BOXING CLUB
The classes started in November amid great enthusiasm. It was
impossible to get an instructor for wrestling, but the redoubtable
Louis (Kid) Scaler dispensed words of wisdom about the art of boxing,
and a huge class listened spell-bound. The enthusiasm lasted and a
great deal 0° good was done in the early lessons of the “theory of box-
ing.” Soon gloves and practical work began and just when we were
hoping for winners in all classes, the numbers began fading away, to
more gentle amusements, and nicer indoor sports. It is feared that the
“salons de jazz” claimed them. It was impossible to hold a tourna-
ment and no A’s were gained by the Club, although there were a few
good men.
A certain amount of ‘“ancestor-worship” would not be amiss at
the present time. The U. of A. already has its traditions. It was
not always thus. At one time virtually all the wrestling and boxing
championships of the province were held by the University of Alberta,
and the names of Van Patten, Annes, L. S. Macdonald, Johnnie Glenn,
etc., were names to conjure with. The soundness and healthiness
of the real spirit of a university can usually be measured by its genuine
interest in certain branches of athletics—this is one of them.

RIFLE CLUB
Last October the Rifle Club opened the 1919-20 season with a bang.
This sport has proved very popular with the amateur nimrods, and,
though not classed as‘a major one, nevertheless requires a steadiness
of nerve and keenness of eye, which only those in the best of physical
condition can boast of.
The association again elected as president W. S. Budd, who had
charge of the activities last year, and as secretary E. Gardiner.
About thirty-five members reported regularly for tri-weekly practices.
All was going well when suddenly word was received that due to the
reorganization of the faculty of science the range in the Science Building
would have to be vacated.
The officers looking for a range now became familiar figures in
many out of way places. But none could be found. Finally at the
instigation of Dr. Tory, permission was again granted to use the old one
and practices recommenced in February.
Arrangements were now made for the “shooting off” of the com-
petition and interest was at fever height. Three targets of seven
shots each constituted this competition. Mfr. Sillak received the gold
medal as first prize with a score of 95, defeating Mr. Simpkin of last
 Aishlay CANAL
DAW AN NE 61

year’s fame, who came second with a score of 93, and received a silver
medal.
Other members of the club who made high scores were Messrs.
Broadus, Budd, Fetter, Fisher, Good, McMillan, Moodie, Moore,
Patterson, Sampson and Waite.
In closing it is only fair to state that if it had been possible to hold
continuous practices better scores might have been made.
Taking everything as a whole however the Rifle Club has had a
very successful year and an interest has been created which augurs
well for this sport in the future.

ROOTERS’ CLUB

An attempt was made this year to put the Rooters’ Club on a better
standing than in previous years, as the large registration seemed to
promise strong support for this club. With this in view the first
University Cheer Book was edited and published in time for one of the
large games. The sale of this book was not up to expectations, nor
were there many opportunities given for its use, for despite the large
number of games, the students turned out rather as spectators than
rooters, and missed many opportunities of taking seats in rooter sections.
Yet one could usually depend on twenty-five brass-lungers, trained at
the Khaki University or the Des Moines Conference, to give the
“Bolsheviki Yell,’ to “feed someone blue-grass,’ and in general to
encourage the teams. Most of these rooters will be back again, and
with this as a nucleus for “loyal” freshmen to gather about, we look
forward to the coming year.

THomen’s Athletics 1919-20

The past year has been a successful one for women’s athletics,
The desire to bring athletics for women to a more prominent position
in college activities has meant a general re-organization, and has re-
sulted in a new constitution for the association.
The purpose of the W.A.A. is to promote a higher physical
efficiency
among the women of the University by fostering an interest in athletic
activities. It is open to all women registered in the University, and
stands for close co-operation and true sportsmanship, all working
together for a greater Alberta.
This year eight hockey players, Helena Barclay, Hazel Tillotson,
Caroline Schade, Ruby Wood, Leone Macgregor, Catherine Crystal,
Dorothy Whiteman, Jean Hennessy and four basketball players,
Orline Fraser, Emily Schepp, Bernice Carmichael and Nellie James,
qualified for the double A pin which is awarded in recognition
of merit.
The Women’s Athletic Association wishes to thank Mr. Creek
Race, Mr. R. Cleland and Mr. Harry Morris for their patience and
help, also “The Gateway” staff and all those who have helped to make
the Association a success.

Senior Basketball Team

BASKETBALL

Repeating their victories of last year, the women’s basketball team

again won the inter-collegiate championship of the city, the western
university championship series against Saskatchewan and the Alberta
provincial championship against the two Commercial teams of Edmon-
ton. Ina year that has been fraught with disaster to most of Alberta’s
athletic ventures, the basketball team has been particularly fortunate
and can lay claim to be the only winning team from Alberta for the year
1920. As a result the Varsity collection of silverware has been aug-
mented by the Wilson Shield emblematic of the provincial championship,
and the Allan Cup emblematic of the city championship.
At the completion of the year the Women’s Athletic Association
wish to express their thanks to all the rooters who have so patriotically
supported the team through its various ventures and any others who
have contributed to the success of the team.

Women’s Hockey Team

HOCKEY

The University Women’s Hockey Team this year was better than
that of any previous year. There was more enthusiasm and con-
sequently a larger number than ever turned out to the practices. Great
credit is due to Ralph Cleland for his work as coach.
The great event of the year was the first women’s inter-varsity
hockey game. This was played against Saskatchewan Universily.
The support given was so encouraging that we hope to play a return
game next year; for although we lost 3-0, the girls are confident that
they will be able to reverse the score.
The next week games were played successfully with the South Side
girls and the Monarchs, the former provincial champions.
The team took a trip to Calgary, accompanied by Harry Morris
as coach. This was the hardest game of the season and ended in a
victory for Calgary.

The CAauneita Society

As we come to the end of another year it is well to glance back
over the work which has been accomplished.
Early in the year a general meeting was held at which it was decided
that a new constitution should be drawn up which would make the
activities of the Wauneita Society entirely social, as it was felt that
debates, concerts, etc. would overlap the work of other organizations
in the University. Our great aim, however, was as always, to promote
a feeling of fellowship among the women students. The success which
has crowned this effort is due to the efficiency and unselfishness of the
executive who at all times have been true followers of our motto,

“Each for All

and
All for Each.”

The Reception to the Freshettes took place in October when they

were duly initiated and instructed as to the rules and regulations of
the society.
The next great event was a reception to the Men Students. That
 THE GATEWAY 67

it was a success can easily be judged from a remark made by a Fresh-

man who, like Barkis, was quite “willin’”’ that such events should be
often repeated.
The Colonial Ball was held later in the year. Great originality
was shown in the costumes which ranged from the Tudor period until
our modern age.
The Dansant, given by the third and fourth year women to
the Wauneitas was another pleasant event. Many acquaintances
were made over the tea-cups which helped to bring about a greater
friendship among the women.
As for the Tea to the High Schools and the Banquet to the Alumnae,
if our guests have the same pleasant memories of them, as we have,
we shall be satisfied.
A new constitution for the society was accepted. The new feature
of this constitution is the establishment of a Wauneita Council which
will deal with discipline among the women students. Such a council
is very necessary as the membership of the society has been rapidly
growing.
To the Wauneitas who are graduating this year we extend our
heartiest wishes for their success in the future.

Che Returned Soldiers’ Association

Karly in the present session the war veterans of the U. of A. felt
the necessity of some definite association in the university of men
who had returned from overseas. The large majority were students
whose studies had been interrupted in the years of war and resumed
this session. The feeling for a Returned Soldiers’ Association was
brought to a head when the Eastern universities initiated a movement
to bring to the notice of the government the needs of returned soldier
students. After the matter had been fully discussed, such an asso-
ciation was formed to be affiliated with similar organizations throughout
Canada, and a delegate was sent east to support the central committee
in their representations to the Dominion Government. This com-
mittees’ just and importunate demands for government. assistance
in the form of moderate loans were, however, refused; and an organ-
ization. is now under way to associate this movement with the estab-
lishment, throughout the province, of memorial scholarship funds.
 AEB; GcAU Bae AN 69

The Returned Soldiers’ Association has indirectly taken an active

part in the university activities this session. Our members hold a
large number of executive offices in the Students’ Union, Literary Dept.,
Athletic Association, and their associated societies; and have done
much toward re-establishing the traditions of the university on a new
and broader basis.
Although we have figured officially as a Returned Soldiers’ Asso-
ciation only in a few noteworthy cases, including the Armistice dance,
the War Edition of the Gateway, and the Undergraduate dance, we
feel that our influence has been felt in a manner sufficient to justify
our organization.

The Varsity’s a stage,

And men and women students merely players;
They have their test exams and finals,
And each one in his time writes many papers,
His acts covering seven stages. At first the “Freshie”
Wondering and peering in the lecture rooms,
And then the shining soph. with thick text-books
And lordly confident pace, striding along
Or rushing late to class. And then the junior
Sighing like a furnace with a lengthy essay
Writ in Macaulayese. Then the senior
Full of strange lore, and learned as a sage,
Zealour for “honours,” plugging away indeed,
Seeking a bubble reputation
Even in the midnight hours. And then the graduate
In shell-rimmed glasses and in gown attired
With mien austere and formal precise gait,
Full-fledged in Arts or modern sciences;
And go he plays his part. The sixth scene shifts
Into the lean, round-shouldered M.Sc.
With spectacles on nose and lots of “side,”
His youthful sweaters saved to mark his pride
In past exploits when his big manly voice
Boosted his team. He sports a bull-dog pipe.
In studies he is found. Last scene of all
That comes is the full-blown Ph.D.
A second Solomon, and no mere “bonehead”’ he,
Sans haste, sans cares, sans doubts, sans everything!!

Medical Students’ Club

This finds the Medical Club with its third year of history drawing
successfully to a close. The tremendous progress this organization
has experienced in the last year, demonstrates only too truly, its in-
herent worth. This advance was greatly accelerated in the latter part
of the year, by the incorporation of the students registered in Pharmacy,
Dentistry, and the combined course in Arts and Medicine, into the club,
thus making a total availabe membership of two hundred and thirty-
six.
An outstanding feature this year was the inspection and grading
of our Medical School by Dr. N. T. Colwell, Secretary of the Council
on Medical Education for the American Medical Association. Dr.
Colwell in his address pointed out the necessity of grading Medical
Schools, in order to eliminate the fakes that have arisen, due to the
demand for doctors since the war. He paid a very high tribute to the
Canadian Medical Colleges, and we have no doubt but what our depart-
ment will receive a first class standing:
In addition the club was also favored by two splendid lectures
during the term. Dr. Jamieson gave a very interesting account of
the history of hospitals, illustrated with lantern slides. Dr. Allin
in an excellent lecture on Postgraduate Work, answered the paramount
question present in every medical student’s mind, viz.: ‘What shall I
do when-I graduate?”’
 thst18) CON AY 1D)MWY Ne 71

The Executive under its able president, Mr. J. L. Jackson, deserves

distinguished mention for the elaborate program promulgated, and the
zeal with which it was carried out. One criticism could profitably
be made, the scarcity of lectures during the term. The club would
profit greatly by an increase in this feature, judging from those prev-
iously mentioned.
The social life of the club, witnessed on Mednight, a play with
other sundry amusements, in all respects superior to any attempt
that has as yet been made in this direction. The success of the night
was due largely to the splendid ability exhibited by the caste, the ex-
cellent work of the advertising committee, the stage management, and
the untiring efforts of the manager, Mr. H. A. Pearse. This was fittingly
supplemented by the Annual Banquet and Dance where professor and
student after satisfying their physical needs, all enjoyed the round of
pleasure provided.
This club is an organization to represent the Medical Students,
create a good fellowship between the student and professor, make for
co-operation in all departments of the work, and serve as a uniting
factor in a unique way.

Agricultural Club
It is with considerable satisfaction that we review the work of the
club during the past year. What we lacked in numbers was more than
made up by the enthusiasm of the executive and members. The year’s pro-
gram was creditable indeed, and a keen interest was taken in all meetings.
Early in the year a number of important amendments were made
to the constitution. The name was changed from Collegium Agri-
colarum to the Agricultural Club.
Plans to stimulate interest in agricultural education throughout
the province were outlined and are being gradually put into effect.
An appeal was made to the Schools of Agriculture to co-operate with
us in this work.
The year’s work started with a happily chosen and well delivered
address on “Adventures in Contentment,” by our Hon. Pres., Dr.
Broadus. The thought was left with us that this was a very pleasant
old world after all, if we but look for contentment, and we were shown
how and where to find this contentment.
Dean Howes entertained us one evening with an interesting account
of the life and work of Henry Drummond, interspersed with selections
 Oe Ws GA BeWeAcy: 73

from Drummond and personal reminiscences of life among the French-

Canadians. The patois of the habitant seems to be as native to the
Dean as English.
Addresses were delivered by Prof. Dowell on the International
Live Stock Show of 1919; by Prof. Cutler on U.S. Agricultural Colleges
and Experimental Stations; by E. H. Buckingham on the Des Moines
Conference; and by five of the members on Methods of Permanent
Agriculture in Alberta.
It will be a long time before the members forget the theatre party
and banquet in February. We hope that this was but the first of many
such evenings.
The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: Honorary
President, Dean Howes; President, Hector McArthur; V ice-President,
Ed. Phillips; Secretary-Treasuer, J. L. Doughty; 3rd year represen-
tative, E. H. Buckingham; 2nd year representative, H. R. Thornton;
Auditors, S. Barnes, Wm. Hanna. The first year representative is
to be elected in the fall from the incoming freshmen class.

CAriters’ Club
The Writers’ Club has come into being. Future years will appre-
ciate the weight of that statement.
On November 8, 1919, the Club saw the light of day, and recorded
its first minutes. Since that time, it has grown rapidly; its membership
now is 27.
The Club aims to help students to write and to publish. It is a
business-like group, with a will to break into print and not blush in
obscurity. It insists than an enthusiast before he may become a mem-
ber shall appear, at least once, in cold print. It plans to keep, its
members always closely in touch with active journalistic work.
During the term meetings have been held twice a month. Some
of the meetings have been devoted to the discussion and criticism of
manuscripts submitted by members. At other meetings, addresses
have been given by distinguished friends of journalism. Dean Howes
addressed the Club, speaking on the opportunities for men in agri-
cultural journalism, and the type of work that is needed in that field.
Mrs. Arthur Murphy (Janey Canuck) gave many valuable hints from
her own wide experience, for the benefit of those who look forward to
free lance work. Mr. Morrison, News Editor of the Edmonton ‘ Jour-
nal,” gave encouraging advice to men and women planning to take
up newspaper work or the writing of magazine stories. Towards the
end of the term the Club had the pleasure of hearing Professor Mac-
Gibbon and Mrs. Nellie McClung.
The members have been publishing frequently in the Edmonton
“ Journal,’ where they have kept a students’ page flourishing week by
week. They also have been scouring the mail routes of Eastern Canada
and the United States with manuscripts for publication. They have ~
made some kills, and have tasted blood. Next year there will be no
holding them.

In speaking of the work of the Intercollegiate Y.M.C.A. the work
of the University and Alberta College Associations will necessarily
be covered and reviewed. Activities have been carried on similar to
those of previous years. ’ The study of the Bible was emphasized
especially, because it is mainly through an earnest study of the life
and teaching of Jesus that any real passion for Christian service can
be inspired. At least fifteen study groups were formed and much benefit
received.
The Sunday services have been held regularly throughout the
session with an average attendance of one hundred and ninety-two.
The student body has over one thousand members. It is therefore
self-evident that only a small percentage of the students take advantage
of these splendid services. The Y.M.C.A. would welcome suggestions
as to how more of the University men can be interested in them.
Want of space will not permit that anything be said about the
handbook, the work of the new student, and social service committees,
the series of reconstruction meetings, the work of the choir, or the
big effort that was put forth to have our full quota of delegates at
the Des Moines Convention.
A brief reference may be made however, to a new line of activity.
It was discovered that many of the students wished to undertake some
form of boys’ work. To provide the necessary training in leadership
Mr. Dallas of the city Y.M.C.A. came over and gave a series of talks
on the C.S.E.T. programme. As a result at least twenty students

have signified their intention of undertaking the leadership of boys’

groups next session. The significance of this movement in establishing
better relationship between the students and the churches can hardly
be estimated. Similar training might easily be provided for those
interested in the boy scout movement.
The basis of membership of all the student Y.M.C.A.’s emphasizes
the idea of service. Every student, therefore, who becomes an active
member virtually asserts his willingness to undertake some form of
Christian work. There are now one hundred and fifty-five active
members as a result of the membership campaign. ‘This is a splendid
working force and the “Y”’ executive for the coming session can rest
assured that if they provide an inspiring programme there will be
plenty of helpers to carry it through.
A word must also be said about the Vesper and Fellowship services
held in Alberta College. These have been well attended and there
seems no reason why similar services could not be held, eae on
Sunday evenings, in the lounge in Athabasca Hall.
To sum up, the Y.M.C.A. has endeavored to ‘minister to the re-
ligious needs of the students. Many things have been done. Many
more have been left undone. It is only when every student who believes.
in the value of the religion of Jesus rallies to the support of the Y.M.C.A.
that it can properly fulfill its function in the University and Colleges.

As we look back over the many pleasant times scattered through
the year just closing, one of the bright spots to the girl who loves the
big outdoors is the hike and weener roast at which the Y.W. welcomed
the freshettes into its ranks. The work of the organization, sO aus-
piciously commenced, has been ably carried on by Miss McLennan and
her executive.
At the first general meeting of the year, held in November, Dr.
Buchanan spoke to a joint Y.W. and Y.M. gathering on his work as
a medical missionary among the wild tribes of northern India. In
December Rev. G. A. Clarke gave a very inspiring talk on the homely
topic, ““A Common Pin.”
The January meeting was devoted to messages from our Des Moines
Conference delegates: Miss Swanson, Miss Simpson, Miss McLean,
Miss McLennan.
 78 THE GATEWAY

In February we were fortunate in having two addresses by Dr.

Young on “Health Education.”
Besides the general meetings there were regular weekly cabinet
meetings. One interesting feature of them was the reading of letters
received from time to time from Margaret Anderson, the Y.W.C.A.
Secretary, sent to Hong Kong by the Students of Asia Fund.
The Y.W. this year is greatly indebted to its Honorary President,
Mrs. Coar, who has taken a keen interest in our work. It was due
to her interest that the St. Patrick’s tea of March the ninth proved
such a success. She not only threw open her house for the occasion,
but was the prime factor in the promotion and furtherance of all plans
in connection with it. St. Patrick and Easter cards painted by the
girls as’ well as shamrock blotters and serviceable but pretty vases,
were sold at this time to those interested. The total amount cleared
was fifty three dollars and eighty cents. This was put towards the
expenses of delegates to the Lumsden Beach Conference.
As usual the Y.W.C.A. has devoted its energies to the furtherance
of Bible study. For the junior and senior years this has taken the form
of fortnightly classes under student leadership alternated with joint
Y.W. and Y.M. reconstruction meetings, addressed by various eminent
men. The freshettes and fresh sophs., resident and non-resident,
have turned out in large numbers to enjoy the extremely interesting
classes under the leadership of Miss McCrimmon, During the latter
part of the term the various students of the resident groups have
combined with Miss McCrimmon’s class to discuss the aims, value
and work of the Canadian Girls in Training Organizations.
The new cabinet is as follows: President, Miss Bessie Gardiner;
Vice-President, Miss Ruth Balaam; Secretary-Treasurer, Miss Maimie
Simpson; together with the following conveners of committees: Bible
Study, Miss Jessie Hamilton; Mission Study, Miss Lorne Jackson;
Conference, Miss Susie McLennan; General Meetings, Miss Helen
Raver; Social Service, Miss Lucille Barker; Posters, Miss Agnes Fuog;
- Membership, Miss Jessie Arthur; Finance, Miss Ethel Steele; and

Bes Moines Convention

The Student Volunteer Convention met at Des Moines during the
Christmas holidays. Twenty-seven delegates went from the University
and the affiliated colleges. To defray their expenses the committee
raised the sum of $1,900. As a result the inspiration received at Des
Moines and the realization of the opportunity for Christian service
in foreign lands seven delegates have become Student Volunteers,
in addition to those who had previously joined, making altogether
fourteen volunteers. All were much impressed with the message they
had heard and while some feel their work lies in the foreign field others
realize that workers are needed in our own country and will do their
part here.
As soon as the delegates returned, the city churches requested
reports of the convention, and since then have been kept busy reporting
in the different churches.
Devotional meetings have been held before the Sunday service.
It is very encouraging to note that the attendance has gradually in-
creased and that they have been very helpful to all who have been
there.
A second result of the convention was the revival of the Student
Volunteer Association. At the Wednesday afternoon meetings the
lives of prominent missionaries have been studied and lessons drawn
from their experiences. We hope the incentive received at the Con-
vention will not be lost until the next one gives new inspiration.

Alberta College Students’ Council

Alberta College
The year through which we have passed has been extremely ab-
normal. Many of the students of former years have returned and found
their Alma Mater in exile. but in a friendly land. Nor shall our, ex-
periences be quickly forgotten. The inconveniences of the past year ~
have not been less to the University than to us and we deeply appreciate
the kind and considerate spirit shown us during our residence in
Assiniboia. As the session draws to a close the hope of a speedy restora-
tion of our own building seems to be entirely justified, and we all eagerly
look forward to a return of pre-war days.
No day in the A.C. calendar will be more memorable than that on
which the returned men were formally greeted. Joyously the re-
turned were welcomed but a solemn sadness mingled with that
gladsome thought—many had returned, but not all. In this en-
vironment Dr. Thomas arose and briefly’ and eloquently paid a
glowing tribute to the fallen. Addresses of welcome were given by
Principal Tuttle, Dr. H. Smith, President of the College Board, Miss
Burkholder on behalf of the faculty, and Dean Kerr on behalf of the
University. Brief responses were made on behalf of the returned
men by Messrs. Ralph Johnson and C. 8. Pinder who. expressed the
view that as the veteran had been prepared to die for his country he
was now prepared to live for it,
 GPE GAS NE Wig SY. 83

ATHLETICS

The earliness of the winter upset all plans for outdoor field and track
sports before schedules were arranged. Consequently the A.C. football
and track teams were compelled to hibernate and dream what might
have been had they only been given an opportunity.
Our hockey team under the genial management of Mr. W. A.
Henry has been a credit to the College. Its brand of play has been
excellent, clean and effective. Though unable to complete the schedule
due to the suspension of the league its performance was all that could
be desired.
In basketball the ladies preserved their identity while the men
were merged into various University teams. The former have an
enviable reputation in the House League and are now trying their
strength in the city fixtures.

LITERARY DEPARTMENT

The Literary Society has been somewhat handicapped due to

lack of suitable accommodation. Its programme this year has been
largely social, its chief interest being in spoons and ice cream. Among
other activities a Choral Society was organized and many enjoyable
hours were spent under the efficient leadership of Mr. A. K. Putland,
Mus. Bac.

Y. W.C. A.

The “Y.W.” has had a splendid year. Weekly study groups have
been conducted under the inspiring leadership of Mrs. C. E. Race to
the delight and profit of all the members. Various visitors from the
home and foreign missionary fields have given helpful addresses. Out-
side the college circle the members have been active in holding Sunday
classes at the “Shelter.” Due to sickness and epidemics this pro-
gramme was suspended for a time but will be resumed after Easter.

Y.M.C. A.

During the year the “Y.’’ work has been more intensive than ex-
tensive.
The .Vesper and Sunday services have been enjoyed by all. To
add to their interest, enthusiasm and inspiration, the “ Y.W.” heartily
co-operated, taking a very responsible part of the work.

TO A.C.

Hail, Alma Mater, we sing unto thee,

The light of the land, the hope of the free,
Radiant in truth, forever to be,
Pointing to life, love, liberty.

The days that are here fast fleet away;

Worlds ever pass: man lives his day,
Reaches his full and lies in decay,
But ever abides truth’s beaming ray.

Lift high the torech—truth—guiding star;

Illumine the path where wanderers are;
Hurl out the strife and blighting war,
Guide by the gleam to the gates ajar.

ROBERTSON COLLEGE

This session has been the first in which many of the old students
who were overseas have come together again, and we feel that is is
a memorable year in the history of the college on that account. The
change from the paths of war to those of peace has not been an easy
one to effect. In their efforts to re-adjust themselves the ex-soldiers
may sometimes be tempted to deplore the time which they spent away
from their studies, yet, on the whole, they have perhaps learned lessons
from their experiences overseas that they never could have learned
from books. The fact that the majority of the students are returned
soldiers is doubtless in a large measure responsible for the fine spirit
of comradeship which has prevailed in the college this year.
During the past session we had several distinguished visitors,
notably Dr. Pringle, of Klondike fame, Moderator of the Presbyterian
church, and Rev. Dr. MacMillan of Toronto, who infused fresh interest
into the hymnal and song services of the church. In February we were
favored with a course of lectures from the Rev. Mr. McLean, Secretary
for Sabbath School work in Alberta and British Columbia.
The induction of our new Principal, Dr. Millar, was undoubtedly
the most noteworthy event during the college year. Dr. Millar was
the first missionary on the ground where the city of Saskatoon now
stands. This was in the palmy days before the advent of the railroad,
so that he has done his share of pioneer work. In 1911 Dr. Millar was
appointed Professor of English Bible in the college, and laboured with
great acceptance in this field until his recent appointment as Principal.
He was the subject of a presentation from the students and graduates
of the institution on attaining his well-deserved honour.
 THE GATEWAY 85

An event which aroused great interest among our students was the
Des Moines Student Volunteer Convention held in the first week of
this year. The students who were elected delegates from the college
came back as enthusiasts for such conventions and even expressed the
fervent desire that there might be such an event every year. It has
not been explained whether this desire is due to the fact that there were
so many fine young ladies at the conference, but knowing our delegates
as we do, we confess we are somewhat suspicious as to their motives.
Four graduates leave us this year. They have all had wide exper-
ience on mission fields in various parts of Canada. The good wishes
of all the students go with them into the active work of the ministry
which is now opening out before them.
At the student elections held a short time ago John Edgar received
the honor of the Presidency of the Students’ Council for next session.
All his supporters are good men and true. If the fine spirit which has
prevailed in the college this session is in evidence during the next,
but little difficulty will be experienced in guiding the student affairs.
It is only right that we should pay a parting tribute to the brave men
who went from our college, and now lie beneath the soil of that. far-off
foreign land which they helped to save. Our college was privileged
to have them here as students. We were privileged to know them,
and to honour their sterling qualities as personal friends and com-
rades. We rejoice that their names are registered among those through
whose noble deeds Canada is today proudly wearing an immortal
crown of glory, which by the grace of God shall never pass away.
But strew his ashes to the wind
Whose voice or sword has served mankind—
And is he dead, whose glorious mind
Lifts thine on high?
To live in hearts we leave behind,
Is not to die.

THE SAYINGS OF SI.

Some time ago it was rumored that the jokes, humor, ete. within
the Gateway were ‘‘cheap” and as this accusation came from one
within a position to judge, Si concluded, as he received no remuneration
for anything that he wrote that his were as cheap as any, thus he dis-
continued for the time being.
However he feels that he should let the world know that he still
liveth.
Having made several perusals of large volumes of biographical
natures he has come to the conclusion “that Roberts burns.”’
Tn conclusion he wishes to add a little rhyme entitled

THE TABLES TURNED

A little bird did chance to fly

Into the classroom, past my eye.
Twas surely in a strange abode,
Perhaps it came to hear an ode.

For surely all the birds do know,

That Wordsworth’s voice did freely flow,
In verse and rhyme, to birds on high,
While he within the grass did he.

We come and read from day to day

The foolish things that he did say
Concerning things that dwell without,
Such as the bird, the lark, the trout.

The Prof he scored us very hard

For looking at that little bird.
“Small minds,” said he, ‘‘that do but stray
“From lectures, notes and books, away.”

Yet if we stop to take a look,

We find within this selfsame book
Odes, verses, rhymes, by various men—
Praising a lark, or some old hen.
 aEee GAB, WAY:

ADIEU!

Away from the echoing world, I strayed

Into the silenced college halls,—
Which close of day had left deserted quite,
‘There, unobserved, to take my leave
And bid farewell my Alma Mater,
This foster mother I had grown to love.

The lofty halls, enriched in sunset glow,

Familar haunts, steeped in some new dignity,
And the peaceful stillness of the evening air
Did make unconscious print upon my mind.
I wandered, strangely restless, and in my breast
A yearning grew, to know of things to come.
O, could I but invoke the unseen Guide!
O, would He tell me of the path I take,
Yet further, might I urge that He disclose
Something of Himself.

It may have been the cool air that stirred,

Perhaps, the sound of whisp’rign birds
Came through the hushing distance to the window,
Or perhaps, on the last ray of the dying sun
The spirit of Alma Mater brought her message:
“Think not to know what finite souls must ever
“Tack intelligence to comprehend.
“But seek, and add your portion to the rest.
“Yourself, will ever be your guide
“Through all the world. And what will be your life?
“Little more than your own thoughts reflected back.
‘“All’s well for him who puts all fear aside.”
I heard no more; and from the window rose
And looked into the depening twilight shades.
What meant the voice, and what the message brought?
But, while I pondered o’er the words, a peace
I know not whence it came—did flood my soul,
And then within a sense of joy grew strong,
And oh! how good, how glad I was
To start afresh, to Journey forth,
Myself explore, where there may have gone

Then as.the dusk enveloped all about,

I bid farewell my Alma Mater,
This foster mother I had grown to love.

An Established Standard
For sixty-five years the Heintzman & Co.
piano has been the established standard of
high art in piano making. It is not merely
for their beautiful and artistic cases that
these instruments are renowned, but because
ot their fine and particularly sympathetic
tone. It is because of the wonderful tone of the

firintzman X Cn.

Art Piaun ses Upright

that Tetrazzini and Ruffo chose it to sing ‘to

on their Canadian tour; that De Pachmann
chose it for his Canadian concerts; that
Nordica, Albani, Sembrich, and many other
world-famous artists became enthusiastic in
its praise.
The Heintzman tone is permanent—it is
built right into the instrument—there for a EE
lifetime.

A Store You Can Have

Absolute Faith In
HE prestige of the Hudson’s Bay Company
has been steadily and painstakingly built
up as a result of nearly three centuries of
trading. The prestige is the most cherished
asset of this great institution. It is something
which money cannot buy, because it is founded on
| the confidence of the buying public—confi-
dence that comes only from a fair deal and expert
merchandising experience.
| When you purchase at “The Bay” your
purchase is assured by the best judgment of the
most expert buyers in the country. You can
therefore trade with perfect confidence and
with the assurance that courtesy and service—
which is your due—will be meted out to one and
all alike.
