Another aryearhas passed, and another has been entered upon, and itagain falls to our lot to welcome tlie new arrivals. In the interval between tlie irst appearance of a Ibo\ in lower School and his departure froml the highest form in l'pper School . much happens. He plays games, lie makes friends. warmer friends, perhaps, than those he will make in later years; he studies 1)oys. books, and masters, and his whole character is m oulded in a furnace of joys, trials and disappointments. In welcoming tihe new bo,,. e must not forget to sa\ a few words of farewell to those of you\who have left us. We wish vom all (;od-sled. Rememlber that though vou are advancing through life, you have not totally left us. You have left \'our record with us, and \we hope that you will always keep in touch with the old School, through tie miedium of the (Old Ho's' Association. i 8 Brisbane Grammar School Magazine. On March 7th, our Annual Swimming Sports were held, W. P. Simmonds succeeding in carrying off the School Swimming Championship for the third year in succession. We offer him our heartiest congratulations. The First XI. has been fairly successful this year, but we regret to say that both they and the tennis teams were defeated 1; by the Old Boys. The tennis teams were defeated by a sub- stantial majority, but when we remember that our crack player Quinn, of last year's team was playing for the Old Boys, and that i Paton could not play for the School, owing to the cricket match, we do not in any way feel ashamed. Owing to the scarcity of cricket pitches, a new system of Sports Half-holidays has been introduced, and we may add, with success. Formerly, the whole School had the Sports Half on the one day, but owing to the large number of players there were many boys who could not get a game anywhere. By the new system, the Lower School, Fourth Form, and the V. and VI. forms, have separate Sports " Halves," thus making three Sports " Halves " a month. Once again the coveted honour of winning the Rhodes Scholarship has fallen to a past member of the B.G.S., in the personage of A. W. L. Row. His career at the School was marked by its brilliance in studies and sport, and we wish him every success for the future. The Special Squad has again succeeded in winning the Battalion Competitions, and is now training hard for the Brigade Competitions, under its persevering and enthusiastic commander, Lieut. A. S. West. Changes have taken place on the staff, so that while we announce the departure of Mr. Oakley, we welcome Mr. Lea and Mr.
