XX ,BAL Ll -.-5-4' ,' EE-Qi.-. W' EDITORIAL Another year has rolled by and once again the usual round of activities has been completed and must be recorded in the Black and Red. The year has been a difficult one in many and varied ways. We have had a healthy increase in our enrolment, but the boys have been younger and it becomes increasingly difficult to main' tain all our school activities as in previous years. Nevertheless, there has been no deterioration of effort, and the spirit in the School has been excellent. Another group of boys leave us this year, and our hope is that in the years to come they will look back on their school life with a sense of gratitude and pleasant memories, and that they will find the lessons they have learned here of value Whether they find themselves fighting the battles of war or those of peace. No doubt many of their names will bel added to the everfgrovving list of Old Boys who are serving their King and Country in the Allied Forces. This year, as in all years, we have had our sadder side. The passing of old friends and Qld Boys must be remembered. Last january the School lost one of its oldest masters in length of service in the person of Mr. P. Fletcher, M.A., who had been identified with the School from time to time since 1919. We greatly miss his jovial and unique personality as a colleague. Last August another former master, Mr. L. G. Tolson, BA., passed on. Although not identified with the School since 1920, Mr. Tolson will be remembered with affection by many boys of his time. Ever since the invasion of Italy a large number of Old Boys have been fighting in this area, and a still larger group are now in the forefront of the battle in France. We remember them all in our hearts and pray daily for their safe return. To each and all, Wherever they may be, we send our greetings and good wishes, assuring them of our endeavour to keep the honour and character of the School as high and untarnished as they are trying to keep the honour of our Country.
