This is the graduation issue containing lists of the examination results, scholarships, and awards for 120 students of the Ontario Agricultural College.

Articles related to the major drought in the Prairies address the American Plains Shelterbelt Project to combat the effects of droughts and Western Canada's drought and soil drifting problem. Student contributions include a short story, one student's experience studying birds in Labrador, and another student's impression of the Grassland Congress in Switzerland. A student of the O. V. C. comments on women who smoke cigarettes and feminists. The Macdonald Institute column remarks on the success of the Senior Dinner and the benefits of good mental health. Campus news reports on the 1935 Girls' Conference and the O. A. C. elections. The Alumni column highlights the Annual Summer Reunion for alumni of the O. A. C. and Macdonald Institute.
