In winning the Prince of Wales and
First Edward Blake Scholarship and the

Toronto University, Mr. Louis A. Mac-
Kay and Mr. John Ross Taylor have
won the highest distinction for them-
selves and credit for the .efficiency of
the teaching staff of their Collegiate.
Mr, MacKay is 'the son of Principal
MacKay, of llensall Public School and
has had a career of unequalled success
as a student In 'Clinton Collegiate In-
stitute. He passed the Entrance ex-
amination at llensall with Honours in
1912 and after a year's tuition iii his
father's school entered the second form
of Clinton Collegiate ;institute in
1914, at the age of thirteen. He pass-
ed the Lower School examination with
Honours in 1915, the. Middle School
examination for Entrance pito the Nor-
mal School with Honours and the
Junior Matriculation Examinations in
1916,in 1917 and 1918 lie passed
Parti
I and 11 of the Faeulty Entrance
Examination obtaining Honours in each
examination, In 1919 he 'returned to
take up the Honour Scholarship course
in which lie has had such unprecedent-
ed success. Probably no candidate in
this examination has never won so
many firsts and his fellow students and
lits instructors are justly proud Of his
splendid record. He is not only first
in scholarship but has always been very
active in the athletic and soda' life of
the school in which he took the deep-
est interest.. I•le is a thorough be-
liever in an old hr01t0 "tens Sana in
corpora sono'' and never missed an op-
portunity to indulge his love of foot-
ball, baseball, and tennis. His activity
in sports contributed not a little to his
successful pursuit of his studies.
During the past year he has been
President of the Literary Society and
much of the success of that organiza-
tion was due to his lively interest in
its proceedings. Flis many friends will
watch his future career with interest
and confidence. Toronto University is
gaining a brilliant student in whatever
department he may elect to enter.
Mr. John - Ross Taylor is a son of Mr.
'Wm, Taylor, of Stanley Township. He
entered Clinton Collegiate Institute in
September 1914 at the age of fourteen,
having passed the Entrance examinat-
ion in June 1'912.
He passed his Lower Scnool examina-
tion in 1916, tie Middle School: and
Junior Matriculation examination in
1917' and., his Part i.Faculty Entrance
examination in 1918, obtaining Honours
in each of his examinations. in 1919
he took his Part 11 Faculty Entrance and
Honour Scholarship examinationto-
gether,•with the splendid success in-
dicated above. Ross was one of the
most popular students of the Colleg-
Otte, activ,e in all the departments of
its scholastic andsocial life andequally
profitient in athletics and scholarship.
$tis success is no less .gratifying to his
fellow students assd the staff than that
pf•his friendly rival. 'He intends to
take the course .in Mathematics and
Physics at Toronto University, where
his future success is assured. by the
.his
already laid,
