Almafilian Staff Activities Manager: Janet Burgess Class Prophecy: Elizabeth Ann Whaley Graduates: Diane Bridger Photography: Mary Ann Mac Vicar Humor Manager: Helen Linn Circulation Manager: Nancy Leach Staff Advisor: Mrs. Doering Editorials Many of the students of “Alma ' will soon be leaving this ivy-covered castle in its beautifully landscaped setting in the heart of south-western Ontario. As we look back, we realize the golden opportunity that awaited us when it came time to decide to advance our education in this environ- ment. This year our Alma family consists of girls from fifteen countries. Many of our friendships will be lasting ones. The various activities of our school brought to the light each individual talent, thus enabling each girl to obtain a real personal respect for other members of this family. Our Almafilian is published to record not only on paper but in our memories the staff, students, and activities of our school. As most everyone knows this is not an easy task; but, as in any phase of work one reaps what one sows, so in the publishing of a year book. To the staff advisors, student com- mittees who aided in the preparatory work of this “Almafilian we gratefully say “thanks . I would personally like to extend congratulations to the Class of ' 55. May each of you have a happy and prosperous future worthy of esteem. DONNA-RAE PRONG Page 11 To my Co-Editor, Donna Prong, the rest of the Almafilian staff, and our very wonderful advisor, Mrs. Doering, I would like to offer my thanks for all that they have done to put forth this magazine. Also, I would like to extend to you, the students, and the grads of ' 55 my best wishes for the best of success and happiness in whatever you undertake in the future. I hope that the Almafilian of this year is every- thing that you desire and that it will help retain in your minds the rewarding and enriching experiences of the year past. Once again, thank you — BEVERLEY SEARLE Co-Editors: Donna-Rae Prong Beverley Searle Business Manager: Barbara G.
