In 1950, through the initiative and joint efforts of mem¬ bers of the St. John’s Old Boys’ Association and the Board of Governors of Ravenscourt School, an amalgamation was effected between the two schools and St. John’s Ravens¬ court School was incorporated as a non-denominational, independent school for boys. THE MERGER— as can be imagined—was brought about smoothly and efficiently. The building of the body is accomplished in many ways but, of course, primarily by organized sports .... So much for the body .... and now for the mind .... and that of course is in the hands of the hand-picked masters. 37

THE YEARS OF CHANGE... A dramatic mosaic of this School from 1820 - 1968 written and produced by Gordon D. McLeod dedicated to Richard L. Gordon—Headmaster September 1952 to December 1968. On this night, October twenty-sixth, of the Fathers’and Sons’ Banquet we will try to remember that St. John’s Ravenscourt School is at one time three schools—St. John’s College School 1 820-1950 —Ravenscourt School 1929-1950—St. John’s Ravenscourt School 1950—and that in the words of an old boy of the school, Charles Camsell: “My school is the boys and the men I lived with and came to know almost as I knew my family. The boys and the men are still here and they are still my family.” JOHN WEST: With the aid of an Interpreter I spoke to an Indian, called, Withaweecapo, about taking two of his boys to the Red River Colony with me to edu¬ cate and maintain. —He yielded to my request; and I shall never forget the affectionate manner in which he brought the eldest boy in his arms, and placed him in the canoe on the morning of my departure. “Everything else in our life here on earth sinks into unimportance compared with this one thing: how we feel and act toward those around us. To have a close and affectionate relationship with those around you is to have conquered every problem of life, and to have won its greatest prize. This prize is yours, if you will take with you down the years the spirit which you have created in this your school, Ravenscourt.” 36
