In many ways it has been a hard year. Our difficulties and problems have been varied, but it is some satisfaction at least to know that most of them have been solved satisfactorily, though at times not without considerable inconvenience. As usual at this time of the year another group of boys are going out into the world, to the Navy, the Army, the Air Force, the Royal Naval College, and perhaps one or two to the University. We are confident that these boys, like their predecessors, will be well able to take their place in this time of national need. Their names will be added to the evergrowing list of Old Boys who are serving their King and Country in the Forces. In spite of the increasing difficulties due to war conditions, we have maintained all our usual activities, all of which represents increased interest and effort on the part of the boys, especially considering that our enrolment suffered somewhat last September. To the Old Boys wherever they may be we send our greetings, and we pray for their safe return. We do not know what the future may hold for us, but whatever tasks are laid upon us we shall discharge to the utmost of our ability and with the same spirit and determination -which has characterized our efforts over so many years. G. H. S. 5
