Tasker is tempered by arrow at the most absolute SC\'crance there can bc, Mr. Tasker having joined the stall' after the sudden deélth of Mr. Mathew. Mis' Kahn returned in Jal1u<lry, rcle<lsing Miss 1\Tc.\'eil, whom she had exchanged \\"ith ror the sake of an interesting year in England. The last of our many changes occurred in J\larch, when i\[r. \-olschcnk accepted a secondary post :Jt the Outeniqua High School, George. The School Committee, in recognition of hi excellent work at the schoo.l during the last four ycars, very generously released him on the last day of the terIll. Mr. \'olschenk's departure was so unexr-ected that the school had no real opportunity of bidding hilll good-bye, or of testifying to his popularity, hi exccllence and his Illodesty. The Magazine would, therefore, like to assure Mr. Yolkschenk of the school's recognition of his sen'ices and continued interest in his career. During the first week of the second term fr.

School Improvements To

th Editor, The Magazine,

Dear

Sir, I have long thought that Our school needs gah'anising into action, and am writing this letter to suggest a few reforms. Most decidedly, the school needs a s\,'imming-bath. At lunch-time, instead of playing bas·eball, \\ e oughl to ha\'e a swim. If a lesson is dry, all \'oU need do is to ha\"e a bathe until the lesson is o\·er. The abolition of prefects would be the next step in the histo:-)" of our school. 'Vithout prefects onc could live without being interfered "'ilh, every moment of onc's existence, Prep. is il nightmare. After \l'e ha\'e decided that \l'e have finished, we should be allowed to go. Jf l'ncle K- wants more prep., nobody will stop him from spending the night in the prep. room. StilT collars are the most unholy obstacles that e,'er came o'u.t of the C;"rden of Eden. Their abolition is desired by senior and junior boarders. At meals \"e ought to have a /IIellll a yarel long, \,'ith cvery kind of dish conceivable. Each boy should be attended to by a wait·er in il stilT shirt, black suit and high boot<;. \Ve ought to ha\-e Our menls in armchairs anel at separate table". \'oluntary risino- is essential. Our bCéluty- l.cep is the most important necessity of life, "'ithout it nobody can achic\'e 100/0 in the exams.' We should ha,-e holidays "'hen we please. Registel-s are an intolerable infli tion On schoolboys. 'vVhen our home\\'ork is un atisfactory, \"e should not need to show it to the teachers. Last and not least, it is about time wc baele fare\\'ell to the cane. Its clay is O\'er, and ,,-e ought to let all canes rest in peace after many centuries of hard \\-ork.

From;] high place you can look down into the crater of some mud geysers. These mud geysers generally blow the mud into dilTerent shapes, such as lilies, roses and frogs. A certain white geyser shoots mud into the air which will come down into th路e crater in the shape of a lily-petal. Then the stamen will be blown into the centre of the lily. The water geysers also take shapes ;lS Lhey blow olT, such as the" Prince of \\'ales Feathers." Ther.e is a gey er called" The .lumping Rock." In the crater of this one is a large rock about the size of Standard 7A class-room. If you \\'ere visiting this geyser, you would see this great rock jump up and down three times before it shoots a large volume of water high into the sky. Around the geysers the stones and rock have all changed into beautiful colours, such as reel and )'ellow. This i caused by the constant nction of different minerals on these rocks. They present a beautiful and \\'onderful sight to the eye of the "isto!", and it would be nc)\路isabJ.e, if you e"er ha\'e an opportunity of secing these O'eysers, LO take it. -D. ] EFFES, \'lh. --00--

Hout Bay Tucked away on the \\'estern seaboard of the Peninsula, along the great Marine Dri"e, you will discover Hout Bay, and you will wonder at its setting in the loveliness of rugged mountains and blue sea. At nr. t sight it can be seen that Hout Bil)' is a little fishing hamlet and harbour. So it is, but it is also onc of the most surprising and delightful re orts on this coast. There is a crescent beach of dazzling white sand <lncl, round the corner, a quiet cove, ,,-here rou may give way to the desire' to don YOLIIbathing things and slip into the cool sea. From the oak-shacled stoep of the hotel it is but a step to the tennis courts or the green turf of the golf course. If thnt is not your wish, follow the valley up the winding ra-ad through the chequer-board of little farms ilnd thatched homesteads to Constantia Nek with its hillsiele vine)'ards. Fishing, bathing, golf, full in this sweet atmosphere
