Mrs. L. H. Doering: To our Student mother we pay tribute! Mrs. Doering has been at Alma for four years, being assistant dean for two years and dean for the past two years. She was born in Waterloo County and received her public and high school education in Guelph. After going to college in Toronto, she taught in schools in Toronto and Guelph. During her married life, Mrs. Doering has made her home in the Parry Sound district, Jersey Island, where they operated a large dairy farm, in Eastern Ontario. To you, Mrs. Doering, with your love and charm and personal concern, we give our honour and respect. These qualities which you mirror do make impressions which we will retain and which will influence our individual character. Your devotions have been an inspiration. You have challenged us to aim high so that our ideals may be achieved. THE DEAN’S MESSAGE It is a pleasure to express a word of greeting in this another Almafilian . You who leave us this year take with you our warmest wishes for your success and happiness; we shall always be deeply interested in your welfare. You who return in September will find a warm welcome awaiting you. We had, this year, a very special Chapel service on Palm Sunday when Dr. Dobson expressed, in his own wonderful way, a thought which we hope may represent for each of you the key-note of all our living, working and playing to-gether as a college family — Those things which are seen are temporal but those things which are not seen are eternal — Faith, hope, love endure forever. God bless you all! Affectionately, Norma E. Doering. Page 5

Mrs. Steele Sifton: Mrs. Sifton, our much-beloved principal, has been with us for four years, two of them at the head of Alma College and two as Dean. We will always remember her indispensible advice and talks in time of need, and the warm and ready smile on her face as she goes about the halls offering help and encouragement where needed. We thank you, Mrs. Sifton, for your kindness and understanding. We think you ' re the best ! ! THE PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE I welcome this opportunity to thank the Staff and the Students, The Presidents of the Student Council, the executives of all our organizations, the Editors of this fine year book, — everyone, — for your cheerful coop- eration and fine enthusiasm. You have made this one of the outstanding years in the history of the school. You have distinguished yourselves in Music, Art, Athletics, Academic achievements and even in the field of Radio programs (New girls ' fun night). And now, the year draws to a close. May you treasure in your hearts the rich beauty of the College col- ours as you have seen them each morning in the Chapel windows, — the scarlet, and gold, and blue, — symbols of courage, wisdom and loyalty. Our good wishes for happy useful lives follow you wherever you may go. May you find joy in being graceful, yet be mindful of the unskilled. May you always have the confidence knowledge brings, and yet be humble. May you have the thrill of achievement, and lend a hand to those who failed. May life ' s richest blessings be yours! Sincerely, Flora Sifton. Page 4
