PRINCIPAL'S THE MESSAGE A' R. S. Devereux, M A to THE GRADUATES OF i96o: ' A A A The sound ot the fog horns from the Detroit River reminds me that you will soon hoist the Blue-peter , like the merchant ships leaving the harbour, and set off outward bound on your own voyage. The education you have received may be compared to the set of charts. Like a chart, it will be of no value except as it is used to steer your ship with under- standing and judgment. Steering is necessary because you cannot sail everywhere at once. A happy voyage is due largely to the skill with which you guide your ship from one harbour to another. You have been shown by demonstration and guidance some of the shoals which could wreck your craft. lt is hoped that, in this way, your pilots have prepared you to meet your opportunity. They cannot, and would not, accompany you beyond the harbour's mouth. You will find much work to do on this voyage. One must pursue his ambi- tion with patience, vigilance, sagacity, and determination. The alternative is to go to sleep in the bottom of the boat, letting the elements take you wherever they will. You should cultivate three sorts of ability: Ability to do things, adaptability to cope with new things, and reliability to do things well. When these are used with a purpose in mind, you stand at the helm ready to meet the stresses and strains that the storms of life will surely bring. ,amy Bon voyage,

As the doys ond weeks roll by eoch yeor, I hope thot you regulorly toke the time to look ot the children before you. You will hove been so occupied with the preporotion of lessons ond cissignments to fill eoch moment thot this could become your oim if you ore not extremely coreful.

We sholl olwoys be hoppy to heor of your cichievements ond your dreoms. Sincerely, fffw VICE-PRINCIPAL S
