The famous war-time marching chorus might well have served as the theme song for the events in connection with McGill University's 1931 Convocation, në can been seen from the faces in the above group, which includes four distingulahed Canadians granted honorary degrees at the great gathering in Montreal." E. W. Beatty, K.C., Chairman and President of the Canadian Pacific Railway and Chancellor of 'McGill, (third from right), seems to be the ringleader in the cheerfulness movement. It would be difficult to find a group more typical of Canadian affairs; and just look how that infectious smile has done its work! Left to right: F. W. McLennan, ominent Canadian mining engineer; A. C. Ruther ford, Chancellor of the University of Alberta; Rt. Hon. R. B. Bennett, Prime Minister of Canada; Mr. Beatty: Dr. Harvey Smith and Sir Arthur Currie, President of McGill University. The lower picture shows Mr. Bennett and Mr. Beatty, about to leave Sir Arthur Currie's house for the Campus, in a carriage drawn by a team of students. Note the "No Parking" sign, adopted by the "state conchman" as bla staff of office. It was a memorable day. Everyone amiled-even the Weather Man!
