10 'THE GLEANER aZutasQ2fg V Joseph Levitch ' Members of the Faculty, Fel- low-Students and Friends:-In behalf of the graduating class I extend to you a cordial welcome to our Class Day exercises and hope that you will fully en- joy the time that you will sperfd with us. Today, you witness the culmi- nation of the career of the Class of 1918 at the National Farm School. Three years have roll- ed by since iirst we entered its gates as timid, trembling fresh- men, in utter ignorance of the new vista of life that later grad- ually unfolded itself before our eyes, a life fraught with new meanings and possibilities. With us, on that day, came twenty others, twenty hopeful hearts, just as enthusiastic, just as eager to learn a.s we. But inexorable Fate has drawn them to other pursuits and out of the thirty-two you'ths who. came three years ago to this institu- ion in the quest of agricultural knowledge, there are but twelve that leave it tonight, o put their new-found energies and capa- bilities to the severe test of life. Here w'e steadily and earnest- ly prepared ourselves for the great struggle of existence we are soon to encounter, that when the time should come when we would be called upon to take our part in the world, we would not be found want- ing. For Fdrin School, be it known, is a world in itself, a miniature world, with its sor- rows and its joys. its problems and perplexities, its failures and successes. Here, thanks to the teachings of r our Faculty, we have been instilled with the spir- it to conquer, and the time that we have spent here means three years of serious, sedulous study, of hard and earnest work, 'con- centrated in us. It is .only in the years to come that the fruits of this industry will be apparent and, classmates, it is our duty, nay, our privilege, to be in the vanguard of those who shall proudly carry the banner of our Alma Mater to fame and re- nown. I I take this opportunity to voice to all those who have had a part in the shaping of our career at this school, the feel- ings of gratitude present in the heart of' every member of th-e 1.918 Class. j To our Director, Mr. Bernard Ostrolenk, who came to us a lit- tle over a year ago, bringing with him an intense desire for sincere, mutual-benefitting co- operation and kindling in us anew, there-by, the feelings of loyalty to theschool and its tra- Iditions, of love for all theassoci- ations, since grown so near and dear to us, we can only express our regard in the wish that his good work may never stop and in the hope that the culmination of his efforts will be the attain-
