The Spike: or, Victoria College Review, October 1910

College Greens

College Greens.

Our grounds are gradually losing their neglected appearance, and taking on a more cultivated aspect. Outraged Nature has taken upon herself to clothe with golden gorse the erstwhile barren (naked) cliffs that rise sheer on the south. A soft carpet of green borders a neat drive, and is fringed by a garden that promises bright flowers; and the sturdy taupata hedge that borders the wind-swept tennis courts raises a gnarled growth of bright leaves. The turf springs green on the terraces, and altogether we promise to look much less out-at-the-elbows than we have ever previously done. We shall he beautiful in the future—the distant future.
