provided the funds for this project. The Barkers' five sons have in succession all attended this School. The Barkers have made it possible for the School to have this Library in recognition of their Alumni sons. This is a splendid and useful gift to University School, and I am sure everyone present appreciates the generosity of Mr. Barker in this regard. When arrangements were being made for the Academic Prize- Giving and the opening of this Library, somehow or other my name appeared in the discussion since it seemed that I was a possible and appropriate person to participate in the Ceremony. I strongly suspect that it was Mr. Barker who was behind my appearance here today. Mr. Barker and I have the distinct honour of being Graduates of the L'niversity of Alberta at Edmonton. I graduated in Arts in 1923, while lXIr. Barker graduated in Commerce in 1926, and later from Harvard in Business Administration. I did not know Stan Barker too well at the University, but he was widely recognized there as a good athlete and for his prowess as a runner. His five sons have also distinguished them- selves in Sports. Some years after I had left the University I met Mr. Barker in a business transaction in Vancouver. I recognized then, as many people have since, that Mr. Barker was to become a sound and successful business man. Mr. and Mrs. Barker are associated together in many activities in the Vancouver area. Mrs. Barker has been an enthusiastic helpmate. As we dedicate this Library today, let us not forget that this is in a sense a joint dedication: so we honour both Mr. and lNIrs. Barker for their attitude, and for their generosity in making this Library possible. Except for a brief period there has always been at least one member of Mr. Barker's family at this School during the past twenty-two years, and by the time the youngest son graduates in 1968 the oldest son of his eldest brother will probably be enrolled here. Let me say, Ladies and Gentlemen, that the Barker family is a unique family, and a credit to our society and to our Province. As far as I am concerned personally, I regard it as a distinct honour to be here today to pay tribute to Mr. and Mrs. Barker and their family and to dedicate this Library now to the part it will play in the academic programme of University School. I now declare this Library open, and I hope that the Headmaster and Staff will see to it that it is used to the fullest possible extent. 14
