25t Cargcallen ' g jWe age 5IXTY-TW0 classes have been graduated from the Ontario Ladies ' College and gone out into the world. To what extent has their life at O.L.C. prepared them for living at its fullest and best? True success in living and true happiness in living depend not so much upon what we may accumulate or acquire of wealth or even position, but much more upon the nature of our relations with other people . . . the members of our own immediate families, our friends and neighbours, the various classes in our communities and nation, and even those who live in other countries. If these relations are awry, if we are ill-adjusted in any way or in any of these relations, we suffer in inward contentment and satisfaction. A boarding school is a miniature world, and life here is preparing us for the larger life and wider contacts. If we live successfully here, we shall probably live successfully anywhere. If we fail to adjust ourselves to others in the school; fail to live helpfully in relations to them; fail to ta e our share in the common enterprises and activities of the school; we shall probably fail in the larger world which awaits, and Life will not yield to us those treasures of contentment and hap- piness which it holds for those who understand its secret. The year just closing has been a good year in this respect . . . There have been few misfits in the school. We, both staff and students, have co-operated not only in the things which interest us, but also in the things which interest others, and to this extent we have pre- pared ourselves for successful living anywhere. To all students of O.L.C, but particularly to the members of the Graduating Class who are leaving the school, we wish an ever-deep- ening nowledge of the lessons begun to be learned here, an ever- growing ability to live successfully whatever the situation and cir- cumstances may be. We ho ' oe that the associations of the school life . ... its atmosphere, its traditions, its friendships, its recreations, its wor , and its worship may have helped to this end. C. R. Carscallen.
