R. PAYNE, B.A.

"Fie upon thee, you wretched creature!" is an expression all too familiar to Mr. Payne's students. Mr. Payne came to Jarvis this year as the new head of the Classics Department. He was born in Brantford, Ontario and went to Ryerson Public School and to Brantford C. I. V. S. On completing his high school education he attended Trinity College at the University of Toronto. Jarvis was lucky to get him next. Mr. Payne teaches Latin to grades 10, II, 12, and 13 as well as Greek to grades II, 12, and 13. He can be found every morning at eight o'clock in room 47 where he makes Greek come alive for the grade 13 students. His hobbies include travelling, reading and drama.
Mr. Payne says that he likes the scholarship and the manners of the Jarvis students. His classes are not only instructive but also entertaining. As he himself says, "Only death can keep a student away from Latin class." Indeed, Jarvis is very fortunate to have this talented man on its staff. We hope that he enjoys teaching us as much as we enjoy learning from him.
