Founders Day at St. HiIda's Hall.

Those critics of our modern educat ion
who complain that character building is
no longer the chief element in edE-
cation, those who bewail the fashion
able tendency IF the modern school,
and those who would turn all education
to such practical ends that culture
finds itself sadly neglected. these
would all have new vision if they had
sat with the guests on Founders night
at ST. Hiida S Hall ON All Saints Day,
Ii was not necessary to know the
spirit of the school nor its ideals; these
would have been felt as the procession
OF girls, dressed in white, entered Cad
mon Hail singing The Son of Goo
goes forth to War;" and perhaps even
mole 20 as, still standing, the girls
solemniy took The cath of allegiance to
the flag and to their country. The
rector must gathered his inspiration
for his talk on 10y atty" from those
eager young faces before him. He
knew, too, that their words of loyalty
were no mere woros, but that lhes.
girls have already proven their Loyalty
by real sacrifice.
If we neeoed further evidence that
this school is different" the latter
gathering in Whitby, the center of the
home life, would have proved convinc
ing. Loyalty to the ideals of the
school, real appreciation of that fol
which ST, Hiida, their patron saint,
stood was evident in all that was saio
or done in the keyn given as the
fire on the hearth was lighted from a
brand carried over from last years
fire; in the stories of st. Hilda and
CadmoD; in the chorus re citation OF
Cadmon S hymn to creation; in the keen
assent as the bishop told how he saw
character in formation at st. Hilda 8;
IN the adding of the new link to the
chain which shows the years of the
schools life; in the signing of the
charter, which brought new sense OF
responsibility to teacher and pupil. 1t
is evident that the school which be-
cause of its youth must make tradition
not live on the past, is highly resolved
that those traditions shall be worthy
of its beloved principal and founder,
and also of its patron saint
