    The annual publication of the students of Mount Royal College, Calgary, Albertapdfffioe d /l-wic /</ St. fcf&T,Since 1910 Mount Royal College has been one of the leading Educational Institutions of Calgary. Twenty-one years later, in 1931, it became a Junior College, affiliated with the University of Alberta. Hon. Vincent Massey designed the crest, on which is inscribed our motto: “Quam bene non Quantum”—“Quality rather than Quantity.” JOHN H. GARDEN, B.A., B.D. Principal tyo^eeu-oJid By JOHN HENDERSON GARDEN, B.A., B.D., Pn’ncfpaZ • I am pleased to send this little foreword forth with the 35th Yearbook of Mount Royal College. How much we have appreciated you who are our students of what we hope may be the year of victory. In fact Mount Royal College waited thirty-five years for you, and the College is very hopeful that you may make a very special contribution in building a better world. This has been a year of deep significance in the work of the College. There has been enrolled the largest group of students ever to attend and yet the work has progressed with a smoothness and harmony that has been reflected in the high standard of marks obtained. There has been lots of fun and good fellowship but through all there has been a note of seriousness re­flecting the titanic struggle that has been taking place throughout the world and leading everyone to make the best of his time so that he may be better fitted for .the new day following peace. i The year has passed quickly. It just seems like yesterday since we came to the College last Fall somewhat nervous but with high expectations. Today we are going forth with a clearer vision of the tasks that lie before us and better equipped to meet them. A great challenge comes to us all to so live and give such leadership that the sacrifices of our comrades may not be in vain. We have remembered with appreciation the names of our former students and members of the staff who are serving in the war and have grieved deeply as some of the finest have paid the supreme sacrifice. “They shall not grow old as we who are left grow old, Age shall not wither them nor the years contemn, But at the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them.” We deeply mourn their loss, but pledge ourselves anew to make real their vision of a better world, remembering that— “What builds a nation’s pillars high And its foundations strong? Men who for truth and, honor’s sake Stand fast and suffer long. Brave men, who work while others sleep, Who dare while others fly— They build a nation’s pillars deep And lift them to the sky.”Architect’s sketch of the proposed KERBY MEMORIAL BUILDING / ^be(liccCUo-H NE YEAR AGO we dedicated the Yearbook to the late Dr. G. W. Kerby, our beloved Principal Emeritus. This year we are proud to dedicate this book to the proposed Kerby Memorial building which is to be erected to the memory of Dr. G. W. and Mrs. Kerby. This buildifig will not only be a fitting memorial to the founders of the College but will also provide much needed accommodation. The plan is to concentrate classrooms, laboratories, administrative offices and an up-to-date gymnasium in the new building while the present plant will be renovated and changed to provide more residential facilities and improved studios for the Conservatory of Music. In the main hall of the Kerby Memorial building there will be a special memorial section preserving the photographs of Dr. G. W. and Mrs. Kerby and other historic pictures and documents concerning them. There will also be a book of remembrance telling of the life and work of Dr. G. W. and Mrs. Kerby and recording for future reference the names of all contributors to the Kerby Memorial Building. It is the desire of the College Board to preserve for succeeding generations of students something of the spirit of the Kerbys and to memorialize their supreme work in Calgary which was the founding and establishing of Mount Royal Junior College. The following editorials that appeared in the Calgary papers will indicate how heartily the community has endorsed this idea of a Kerby Memorial building. The Calgary Daily Herald, December 4th, 1944, said: “No finer memorial could be erected in honor of the late Dr. G. W. Kerby than the 100,000 build­ing planned by the governors of Mount Royal College. Its construction has become imperative because of the continuous expansion of the College’s acti­vities, and when completed will bear the name ‘Kerby Memorial Building’. This institution fills an important role in the province’s educational system. It provides facilities for carrying students through the first two years of their University course and it also has courses in musical instruction and other branches. It is in every sense of the word a junior university, and the high type of instruc­tion is evidenced in the many scholarships and other awards won by its students.” “Dr. Kerby spent many years in this city, much to the community’s benefit. In Mount Royal College he left to it a centre of learning of which all citizens are proud. It is highly fitting that his name and memory should be perpetuated for many years to come by what will be a fine memorial building, dedicated to the work in which he was most interested.” The Calgary Morning Albertan, December 5th, 1944, said: “The idea of this memorial seems a very happy one. Dr. and Mrs. Kerby founded Mount Royal College and it is probable the school was their favourite among the many enterprises which they organized in Calgary. An extension of the College building to take care of the steadily increasing enrolment would be an ideal memorial for this pioneer clergyman and educator. The project will certainly receive the support of the people of Calgary.” The proposed Kerby Memorial Building will enable Mount Royal to render better service to the youth of Calgary and Southern Alberta by furnishing up-to-date facilities and making possible an extension of the work the College is carrying on. We students of this year greatly appreciate what the College has done for us and heartily congratulate those who will follow on the improved accommodations that the Kerby Memorial building will provide and we are glad that the spirit of Dr. G. W. and Mrs. Kerby will be preserved for succeed­ing groups of students. 5 Mount Royal College Administration Staff and Faculty GEORGE WALTERS Mrs. MILDRED BELL Ralph w. McCready JOHN HUGHES MARY J.

When we have entered into this world of boundless opportunities and take our place among them, we will recall the little troubles we had with our studies, the way our teachers stepped on us when we needed it, the Friday night dances, and then discover that these and more composed the binding of all into one at M.R.C. With the passing of this year, through headaches and sacrificing of time on the part of an unnamed many, another V arshicom has been completed. We have tried hard to make this Year Book a success and we wish that in future years the students of M.R.C. may profit by our mistakes. I wish to express my sincerest appreciation to my untiring and reliable staff whose contributions of time and effort, have made the publication of this book possible. To Mr. Garden, Mr. Walters and Frances May, whose experience proved to be the foundation of the compilation of this V arshicom. We hope it may, in years to come, serve as a source of many happy fireside memories of the gang yon knew at. good old M.R.C.

This day a* few of us were discussing the practical value of education when Bill told us what education meant to him. As T can remember it, here is his story. Not far from Bill’s home was an immense forest which had always fascinated the young man. One day he walked to it. Leading into the dark hollows ahead was a wide path which Bill followed unhesitatingly, until he came upon a magnificent palace, glittering with light. “Who are you, von young boy, and what are you gentle voice spoke beside him. Bill looked up at the gracious lady touching his shoulder with a quiet hand. “My name is Future”, the soft voice continued, “this is my home. I have many children like you. Right now they are out in the World, where, because they are getting things ready for me, they are called the Destinies. Goodness, it is past their suppertime! Already I can hear two of them quarrelling. Hope and Despair both want to control a young man who has lost his job.” With that she blew five long blasts on a bugle. To Bill, no time passed before several tiny creatures stood before Future. “Now children, how does the world stand today?” asked Future. Pessimism grinned as he replied, “Mr. Mankind is a little troubled today. He is fighting himself, all by himself.” Bill listened sadly, “I wish I could help you, Future. However, I’m just a student at school. What can I do to help you?” Future smiled and was beautiful. “You can be of wonderful help, for I do need you, greatly. I want you to travel to the land of knowledge. It is far, far away, but two of my favorite Destinies, Ambition and Perseverance, will accompany you till you reach Knowledge. Then you must journey alone continually searching the land till you find my three lost babies—-Love, Toler­ance and Unselfishness. If you find them, they will take you to the land of Truth. If you reach Truth, Bill, Mr. Mankind will find peace. I will be safe and promise to give my youngest child, Happiness, to the World. Before you leave, here is a compass to guide you on your trip. It is called Memories. Treasure it well for you will need it! Now go!” Lifting his hand in farewell, Bill the student, who had found the meaning of Education, walked out into the World in search of Truth.

    286 species of lichenized fungi on Mount Kinabalu are recorded by field survey and investigation of literature records and herbarium material. An annotated catalogue is presented, together with habitat notes, and a list of collectors. The summit area has a saxicolous lichen flora of boreal affinities, while the lower zones are more closely related to other SE Asian mountains. Eleven species appear to be restricted to the mountain, and four new species are described: Phaeographis kinabalensis, Stereocaulon granulans, Pertusaria epitheciifera and Thelotrema subweberi

    Analysis of surface mount technology solder joints

    No full text
    This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.The factors determining the quality of surface mount technology (SMT) solder joints are numerous, and complex. The exploration of these factors, and how they may affect the reliability and quality of the joints can only be achieved through continuous research. In this project, essential areas of SMT joints were selected for study and analysis, with the intention of providing additional design and process guidelines for the production of quality SMT joints. In the infrared reflow process, one of the common defect phenomena is the occurrence of tombstoning; that is after soldering only one end of the component is soldered while the other is lifted up, assuming a position like a tombstone. The initiation of tombstoning during reflow was analysed based on the forces acting on the component. A model was developed to predict the initiation of this phenomenon. The model shows that, under vibration-free conditions, the surface tension of the molten solder is the source of the force causing the initiation of tombstoning. The contact angle, which varies with the length of the printed circuit board solder land, has a significant effect on the value of the surface tension acting as a force pulling upward on the component. The model further shows that tombstoning initiation is due to the combined effects of the surface tension; the weight of the component; the dimensions of the component; the length of the solder underneath the component; and the length of the solder protruding from the end of the component. Selected components were used as examples for predicting the conditions of initiation, and these conditions were further substantiated by a series of experiments. Another area of study was a method which directly pulled the components off printed circuit boards and this was used as a means for testing the bond quality of surface mount technology leadless chip solder joints. Components D7243, CC1206, RC1206, RC121O, and CC1 812 were selected for this study. It was found that the ultimate tensile force which breaks a component off the printed circuit board has the potential to be used as a parameter for measuring the quality of the solder joint. The effect of solder thickness on the strength of a joint has also been investigated. The shape of joints soldered by two methods, wave soldering and infrared reflow, were compared. Joints at the two ends of a component produced by infrared reflow were found more uniform than the ones produced by wave soldering. A recommendation is made here for the wave soldering approach in achieving uniform solder joints. The effects of solder shape on the joint strength were further investigated by finite element analysis. A convex joint was found marginally more robust than a concave joint. Two aspects of the internal structure of SMT solder joints were investigated, void content and copper/tin intermetallic compounds. The voiding conditions of wave-soldered and infrared reflow joints were compared. No voids were found in all specimens that were produced by wave soldering. However, there were always voids inside joints produced by infrared reflow. Microhardness tests indicated that the hardness of compounds at the copper/solder interface of infrared reflowed joints is lower than that in the wave-soldered joints. It is considered that the lower hardness of the interfacial region of the infrared reflowed joints is due to the presence of voids. Scanning electron microscopy was used to study the formation of copper/tin intermetallic compounds for joints produced by infrared reflow. The results show that Cu 6 Sn5 was the only compound with a detectable thickness. Other compounds such as Cu3 Sn, were virtually not found at all. Aging of the joints at 100°C, shows that both the Cu 6Sn5 and the overall interfacial thickness grew with time. One of the important areas which had been overlooked previously and was studied in some details was the effects of solder paste exposure on the quality of solder paste. The characteristic changes of solder paste due to exposure were investigated in three areas, weight loss, tackiness, and rheology. The evaporation of low boiling point solvents was considered as the main contribution to the loss in the weight of the solder paste. The weight loss against exposure time was found to follow an exponential behaviour. A method was designed to evaluate the tackiness changes of solder paste due to exposure. It was found that the decay of tackiness against exposure time can be expressed by a power law. It is recommended that solder paste manufacturers should provide the necessary characteristic constants so as to enable the characteristics to be calculated after a specific exposure. The rheological changes of the solder paste as a result of exposure were also investigated. The implication on the printability of the solder paste due to these changes was studied and discussed

    Those who heard it first: The political implications of the sermon on the mount to Jesus’ Jewish audience

    No full text
    This dissertation examines the Sermon on the Mount (in the Gospel of Matthew) from the perspective of politics and peace. It investigates not what Jesus meant, but what his audience heard and were likely to have understood. It does this in order to ascertain the novelty or otherwise of Jesus’ teachings on peace with regard to Jewish thought and political understandings of his time. His audience was primarily Jewish, and the political implications they drew from Jesus’ teachings would have been influenced by established Jewish thought on ethics and governance. This dissertation researches specifically this: how would Jesus’ Jewish listeners have interpreted the peace sayings of the Sermon on the Mount? This dissertation finds that the Jewish intellectual framework within which Jesus’ first audience heard the Sermon on the Mount contained many specific sayings found in Pirkei Avot, and also a history of practice of non-violent action found in Jewish tradition, and that the oral law and the Sermon on the Mount both reflect Jewish ethical ideologies of non-violent resistance. This dissertation argues that, in the Sermon on the Mount, a very Jewish Jesus – a man true to the religio-political views of his day – reaffirms a Jewish ethical form of non-violent resistance. The most important evidence available is the Gospel of Matthew itself, Jewish ethical writings such as Pirkei Avot, other Mishna writings, and writings on the lex talionis. The evidence points to an audience that would have perceived Jesus as teaching non-violence in a context of resistance rather than completely passive submission. The overall finding of this dissertation will be that the writer of Matthew depicts a Jesus who, in style, form, and content, builds on a Jewish ethical foundation to promote non-violent assertion of equality and human dignity in the widely known and oft-cited Sermon on the Mount

On February 9, 1944, Rev. George W. Kerby, B.A., D.D., LL.D., at the ripe age of 83 slipped away during his sleep. Mrs. Kerby had predeceased him in 1938 but in his immediate family there remains to mourn his passing his son, Air Vice-Marshal H. Spencer Kerby, D.S.C., A.F.C., Commander of R.A.F. operations in East Africa, and his daughter Mrs. A. J. Cowan of Vancouver. Dr. Kerby has had a colorful career and has been highly honored by his fellow men. He was eminently fitted by native gifts, character and personality for the high offices he held in education, church and community life. His in­tellect was scintillating, his oratory was forceful and interesting, his moral principles of the highest, but it was in the realm of friendship that Dr. Kerby made his supreme contribution. He was a great and loyal friend whose friend­ship deepened the longer it was experienced. It is good to have known such a man and to know that such friendship lives on. He was truly an ambassador of Goodwill and has left a deep impression on the life of Calgary and Canada. Bishop H. R. Ragg, Anglican Bishop of Calgary, said of him: “He was one of the truest and most genuine men I have ever known and I am honoured to reckon him as one of those whom I sincerely love.” In dedicating this Year Book to his memory, the students and staff would seek to add another tribute to the many that have been made. His happy smile and attractive form will be greatly missed by us all. But his influence will live on amongst us. As Principal of the College for over thirty years, he has moulded the lives of thousands of graduates and to those of us who have known him as Principal Emeritus he has left the memory of a happy youthful spirit that defied approaching age. He was ever joyous, happy and gay. He had the heart of a boy until the end. Death was not allowed to take as much as an illusion from his heart. He was one of those rare souls whose happy faculty it is to lift all with whom they came in contact to a higher level of joyous living. “He did not die He simply laid the soul's frail vesture by And gently passed away, As melts the morning star in golden day, For life commencing here Is but a prelude to its full career, Love, hope and faith assurance give, We do not live to die but die to live.” 3JOHN H. GARDEN, B.A., B.D., Principal 4 FOREWORD By JOHN HENDERSON GARDEN, B.A., B.D., Principal Another College year with all its hard work, friendships and fun passes into history. This Year Book will preserve for us some of the happy memories and associations and may be a constant reminder of what we really take away from College. Some will go on to higher halls of learning, others will cherish certificates, diplo­mas and medals, but the most precious endowment of College is a state of mind that will help us to see life in its true perspective and enable us to make a better contribution to life. In these days of War we think with gratitude of our associates and former graduates who are courageously resisting the foe and especially of those who are making the supreme sacrifice. Their example inspires us to go forward with clearer purpose, nobler courage and deeper loyalty in seeking a Better World. “ There’s just one gift that all our dead desire, One gift that man can give and that’s a dream Unless we, too, can burn with that same fire Of sacrifice; die to the things that seem, Die to the little hatreds, die to greed, Die to the old ignoble selves we knew, Die to the base contempt of sect and creed, And rise again, like these, with souls as true; Nay (since they died before their task was finished') Attempt new heights, bring ever their dreams to birth, Build us that better world, oh not diminished By one true splendor that they planned on earth, And that’s not done by sword or tongue or pen; There's but one way, God make us better men.” 5MOUNT ROYAL COLLEGE FACULTY MARION ATKINSON JESSIE CADMAN | MART VAN STOCKUM JEAN GILBERT GLYNDWR JONES NORMA PIPER KATHRYN DEAN HELEN ROBINSON GLADYS McKELVIE EGBERT LEONARD LEACOCK DULCIE BISHOP MARJORIE BIRCH JASCHA GALPERIN PHYLLIS CHAPMAN CLARKE MARY HUGHES EARL RUTTAN DAISY PALMER 1943-44 C.

THORNTON MRS. M. MOORE W. BENNETT 7 VALEDICTORY • The mariner, far from his home port, constantly looks forward to the day when his voyage will end and he may once more set foot on dry land. All his hopes, all his dreams, are grounded in the success of his venture. The soldier, on the battle-field, dreams of the time when the strife shall cease, when the last bugle shall sound its call to battle, when he may be once more among old, familiar scenes, enjoying life again. At the moment, he does not think of this phase of his life as more than an interlude and, although he may not see his way clearly, he prays that the day will come soon, when he may begin life anew. And so it is with us, who still have a long and arduous road to travel. Our impatience to be at the end of our school life is, per­haps, even greater than that of the soldier, for he, at least, has a familiar life awaiting him. We are on the threshold of a new life. At last we are approaching the time when we must take our place in the world; twenty years of preparation will have at last come to an end and each of us will be facing the great test of his life— a test in which success or failure will not be measured in percent­ages—a test which offers the greatest reward of all for passing— success. And though we may all feel a certain amount of appre­hension, we are impatient to take this test, resolved that we will do our best to pass it. The sailor and the soldier, when their sailing and fighting days are over and they are looking back on life, will not think of the anxiety they may have felt but will, rather, think of those things that lightened their burden. So we, some day, in thinking of College, will hardly give a thought to the anxiety of examination week, the headaches caused by long hours of study, the disappoint­ment of foregoing a party because of “English” next day. We will remember, rather, the exaltation of seeing a high mark on an examination paper or of solving even one Mathematics problem by ourselves, the formal party—or perhaps a word or phrase heard in the chapel services. However, even though there are things that we may remember, let us hope that something finer will have remained. •—Stan Sawicki. 8 x>JOHN H. GARDEN B.A., B.D. M. VERGE F/SGT. L. L. DRAPER GEORGE W.

    Results of a botanical expedition to mount Roraima, Guyana. I. Bryophytes

    No full text
    A bryological inventory of the Upper Mazaruni District, Guyana (former British Guiana) yielded almost three hundred species, including 2 genera and 11 species new to science and 130 species new to the Guianas. The densely forested and very humid north slope of Mount Roraima (500-2300 m.) proved to be the richest area for bryophytes and most of the novelties were found there. The present paper provides an enumeration of the species collected with a brief characterization of their habitat. The following species are described as new: Haesselia acuminata Gradst., Plagiochila gymnocalyx Inoue, Radula gradsteinii Yamada, Radula guyanensis Yamada, Radula mazarunensis Yamada and Stenorrhipis grollei Gradst. Anastrophyllum subg. Vanaea Inoue & Gradst. from Mount Roraima is elevated to generic rank

    Distribution of G-cells in the gastrointestinal mucosa of the uremic patient.

    Antral G cell hyperplasia in the gastric antrum as well as in areas of metaplasia in the body of the stomach were observed in six uremic patients receiving chronic dialysis. On the other hand, D cells were encountered with extreme rarity. This abnormal pattern of gastrointestinal endocrine cells may explain the hypergastrinemia as well as poorly defined gastrointestinal complaints observed clinically in these patients
