THE ASH BUM AN [5] Royal Canadian Mounted police OFFICE OF THE COMMISSIONER OTTAWA June 2nd, 1936. Even though I am unworthy of it, I appreciate the honour of having the June number of the Ashburian dedicated to me, and also the honour of being asked to write this Foreword. I am glad of the opportunity of paying a tribute to a School of which I have the highest opinion, and to have this chance of sending a message to its Staff and Students. The favourable opinion which I have formed of Ashbury College is founded upon sixteen years of intimate associa- tion brought about by the attendance of my three sons at the school during that period. Most people righxly place much importance upon the scholastic attainments of the students and graduates of a college, and, in this respect, Ashbury has an enviable record. I am firmly convinced that those students who grasp their opportunities will leave Ashbury with their minds and bodies trained sufficiently well to give them a mental, moral and physical reserve of power for their life ' s work. My observations of the operations of the School lead me to believe that the Headmaster and Staff have made the develop- ment of character their chief aim, and have put it above the mere accumulation of knowledge. Character has been defined as that organism which desires, deliberates and wills a person to action, and it therefore regulates and determines the life of an individual. I am sure all will agree that the Headmaster has been very wise in placing character building as the chief objective of the School. Physical training and fitness has also been given a prominent place in the training of the boys at Ashbur ' , as the Staff appear to have recognized that a healthy mind is not possible without a healthy body.
