(3o Krlutu (On the Twenty-fifth Anniversary ) UT of the gifts that students may bestow A school is molded slowly day by day; And Kelvin is the work of all who lay Their talents here, that still our school may grow And ev’ry year the ' print of fresh hands show. As they who came before us led the way, In scholarship or sport, in work or play To them who follow us our gifts we owe. And though there is so much for us to learn When life’s full river draws us from the streams, Our thoughts, like wanton birds will still return To find herein the summit of our dreams; Because to each of us this school endears The ideals it has cherished through the years. First Prize—Sheila Barbour, R. 37. iKi ' luin ' ITHIN these four red walls the daylight Hath come and gone for o’er a score of years, And each succeeding hour to some heart carried A prophecy of fame, a threat of tears. Upon these loved walls they’ve left their imprint, Whose hearts beat here ere we to know thee came. They strove as we of later years are striving, With loyal strength, to raise aloft thy name. Oh Kelvin! In the years that yet we know not, With pride we’ll link thy name and our homeland, Through days to come may our foot-paths be sweetened By long-remembered guidance of thy hand. Second Prize—Winnifred Polson, R. 37. 1

hKs FOREWORD . . . W ITH the publication of our fine Year- Book our minds naturally wander over the hap¬ penings of the past year. You will remember how eagerly we looked forward to this our Jubi¬ lee year, and now that short period of time has been added to the great Past, carrying with it memories of outstanding sig¬ nificance not only in the world politic but in scholastic and in¬ dividual lives. For me it is so difficult to realize that twenty- five years have passed since we first entered the precincts of this our School and yet how vividly the varied memory pictures appeared as we once more intermingled in easy and courteous manner on the night of our wonderful reunion. The bonds of tradition were strengthened and a background of deeper interest in Kelvin was formed. “So to our youthful eyes Joy and Hope shown.” The various School activities were carried out in a commendable manner and very lasting cultural benefits were attained. My thanks have already been extended to those who rendered such splendid service in our games, physical training, music and dramatic develop¬ ment. Our “red letter” performances brought glory to our School, and my faith in our ability to produce something worthwhile was again more than justified. With sincerity of purpose, loyalty in service, and the will to achieve let us go forward with the Staff of Courage in our hands and with true humility ‘turn necessity to glorious gain’. “Heaven doth with us as we with torches do — Not light them for themselves.” COURAGE TRUTH RIGHT J.
