Excerpt from Selwyn House School Magazine, Vol. 12: For the School Year 1939-1940
For the Holiday Reading last summer the Upper School was given the choice of three books, Tom Brown's Schooldays, or The Heroes, or A Tale of Two Cities. Some excellent synopses of these books were given, and after some thought on the part of the Masters who read the papers the first Prize was awarded to A. Mathewson (form with P. R. Jennings (form 5) placed proxime accessit. The usual half-holiday was given all those who successfully showed that they had read the books.
Congratulations to Mr. Gordon Phillips upon his forthcoming marriage to Miss Joan Shepherd. We wish them both every happiness.
The memorable Visit of Their Majesties the King and Queen to Montreal on May 18th last was celebrated by a whole holiday. The Scout Troop turned out en masse under Mr. S. Greenlees to line the route, and every boy in the School seems to have had more than a fleeting glimpse of Their Majesties, judging by the many photographs taken.
