The most important feature oi student life during the past week were the annual retreats. We say retreats because there were two of them. While the male majority were o their annual spiritual highlight from Thursday evening to Sunday aftemoon at the col- lege, so also were the female min- ority observing their's across the road at st. Vincent's Orphanage.

We were talking to George Mac- Donald, last Tuesday and he in- formed us that he made a trip to Chepstow - " and brought back two young speed prospects which he acquired from Peter No- lan of that district. one is a three- year-old brown filly. June Budlong by Calumet, Budlong 2.033. dam. June Worthy by Al Worthy 2.155. granddam Cecelia the Great 5! Greet Governor. The other, Gin- ger Worthy,is a two-year-old black colt by Ginger INIA. (by Volornltci out of the same dam as June Bud- long. He has entered both young- sters in the Futurity stakes to be raced this fall. In the deal George parted with a five-year-old Cal- umet Duds colt out of a mare by Frisco Direct. dam Helen R. George also has the brood rnaro Miss Victoria and her very attract.- ive foal by Psgliacci z.09'A. which he has christened Mermaid Queen.

W. W. Annett. Manager of the Bank of Toronto. Gsspc. Quebec. is leaving the 29th of March to spend his annual holiday in Flor- ida. retur ng about May 7th. Mr. Annett is a great horse lover and takes a keen interest in racing in his Province and elsewhere. He writes:-"I certainly apprecl t the weekly copy of The Guardian. Next to your column which is always tops. '1 am very interested in your great hockey team The !alanders' and follow. their activities relig- lously...I presume that you are looking forward to another racing season which is close approaching With all the new and fast horses purchased by Maritlmers over the past few months there should be some real , "" next Five of the local horses have changed hands since last fall and unless the boys purchase some newgones our race meets will be few. We also lack trainers and drivers. We are corresponding with Webb Jardinc of Chatham and hope to have him take over Elwyn Guy for the season." Thanks. Mr. Annctt. and we hope you have a very enjoyable holiday and take in some good racing in the sunny south .

The retreat master for the young men of St. Dunstan's was Rev. Alexander Mclhellan, C. as. R... Rec- tor of Holy Redeemer Parish in Charlottetown. , Conducting the young ladies' retreat was Rev. Ron- ald Delaney, C.Ss.R.. who is also attached to Holy Redeemer Parish.

I I I

While it is generally considered that a retreat is particularly a priv- ate experience on the part of the retreatanta as they devote their time in reflecting on their rela- tionship to their Creator, it does not seem right that such a trem- endous experience should go un- heralded in the world.

I I I

From at least one pont of view. a

t t should be a source of much edification to the world. Indeed. is there anyone who would not be in- spired by the thought of a group of young men or young women for the better part of three days rom- muning as best they can with their God? And is it not a tremendous encour t to realise that those same young men and women re- joice with each other at the end of the retreat because they know it was truly a most happy occasion: happy because the First Thing of all was the centre of their thoughts. Truly. at no time all their lives are they so generous, so willing to give themselves entirely to the will of God, and, of course, so contented.

I I I

But it would be vain for anyone to expect to capture such an ex- perience so fully that it could be related accurately to the world. No one. we dare say. appreciates a re- treats until he makes a good one. because then he is really living. if to live. as someone has wisely said is. "The laying hold of that good which is capable of perfecting us."

Certainly the next momentous happening was the intramural hoc- key league finals, which were com- pleted in at least an inch of water. on Wednesday afternoon.

the destructive creatures. one evening I carried our family eat up into the left. I expected action but was disappointed. She made a half hsartod spring off the beam. then stood in the hay and switched her tall from side to side. That was the extent oft her mouse kiling. She

held in Beckville. by luv. w..1. Macctuigsn. faculty adviser of st. Dunstan's A. A. A.. and Reginald Doucette. President of the A. A.A. The meeting was one of the largest and most enthusiastic in year. and much important business. including the election of officers. was trans- acted. For the second year. Father MacGuigan was elected one of the two vice-presidents, an honor which we consider indicative of the re- spect St. Dunstan's has gained in Maritime intercollegiate athletics.

Next on the list of items are two basketball games. one with a good result. one with a rather poor one On Thursday afternoon, the inter- mediate Saints played and won their first game of the season. when they trimmed the P.W.C. inter- mediates bl-w. We should go even so far as to write that this is one of the best s.D.U. intermediate teams in some years.

I I I

To put it rather mildly. second team's successful debut was some- what spoiled later that same after- noon when Prince of Wales trim- mod the senior Saints for the sec- ond straight game in a regular Is- land League contest. The final score. 67-49, was the worst beating the saints have suffered in some time; and on Thursday the Welsh- men were every bit that much bet- ter. However, since we'sre all striv- ing for contentment out this way. we learned from the defeat that we shall have do much better the next time. This, we all feel. is one shall have to do much better the practice.

I I I Three brief items remain to com- plete the "Week". One is an an- nouncement. one a direct quota- tion. and one an expressed wish, of which the latter two at least uill surely be held in great reverence by posterity. I I I

The ounccment is that the mid-term examinations will take place on Monday. Tuesday. and Wednesds . as a surprisingly large number of students are well aware. After that, we shall be more prone to rejoice in the joyous events that

will be recalled by the Christian '

world during Easter week.

I I I

And now. for the sake of post- erity and those who wish to avoid being teased, we'sre privileged to refer to those two most profound gentlemen of Memorial Hall. Wil- bert Rooney. and Russel Beagan. We repeat that those who would seek relief from the barbs of the practical jokers could do worse than ponder these significant

words. probably the most. forceful

Wilbert has ever uttered: "Now you osn't. tease me anymore, I'm going steady." Russel's wish. while prob- ably less earth-rending. is also quite significant. He has requested that

the following epigram be included '

in his graduating biography: "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush."

She was right on deck when I sat on the milking stool that night. She was sitting in her usual spot with a pained look on her pan waiting for a squirt of milk in her kisser. She could catch milk on the fly better than any cat we ever had.

one January evening. when the night shadows lay under the eves and the last rays of light from the west filtered through the small window under the peak, I espied a tiny owl sitting so wise like on the hay carrier when I went up the ladder to pitch down the usual quota of hay. To my way of think- ing then an owl was just an owl .. .. something to be shot on sight. I rushed to the house all ex- cited and broke the news to fa- ther. I remember him ' g with me to the loft and saying to the little owl: "You poor little fellow- its a. hard winter and you must havefound the hunting tough.
