VALEDICTORY (Betty Gittel, 9A) Mr. Chairman, Honored Guests, Members of the Staff, Fellow Students:—- The time approaches when we shall have to bid farewell to our school. Many of the members of our graduating class have had the privilege of attend¬ ing Balmoral from Grades One to Nine while others have only attended for one or two years. The former privilege I have had, so it is with mixed emo¬ tions that I rise to give the valedictory address. Since we were promoted to Grade Seven we have anxiously awaited the day when we should leave Junior High School, but as the time draws near we are not so sure that we wish to go as we remember the many happy days we have spent in our school. Those dark days, so to speak, when tests were flunked and detentions were being served will be crowded out with the happy memories of hilarity at parties, dances and scores of other school activities. Our teachers have gone out of their way many a time to help us and have shown several other kindnesses which will remain with us always. We have gained from them a fuller knowledge of our surroundings and have been in¬ fluenced by their fine characters. In leaving we would like to thank our principals, Mr. Cartwright and Mr. Bryan and their staffs for their earnest efforts in helping us during these years. As we travel ahead to Senior High School we are taking one more step towards the reaching of our ambition or career. We now depart with a sincere, and enthusiastic outlook upon life, hoping that we may accomplish great future achievements which many former Balmoral students have done. Always shall we cherish the memories of Balmoral and our faithful teachers. Farewell, Balmoral! Thank you, teachers, for the guidance and direction that we have receive d from you within Balmoral’s walls. 42

Balmoral School Patrol ■yHE Balmoral School Traffic Patrol, with the co-operation of Sergeant Moffat of the City Police, have done excellent work in preventing acci¬ dents when pupils are on their way home from school. Approximately 1,000 man hours of supervision have been spent on this work. The pupils who volunteer their time and effort for this project are to be commended. Their names and pictures appear in this year book. Recently the patrol members were given reserve seats to the circus. Throughout the year they have been given the privilege of attending the Grand Theatre free of charge. The patrol and the school staff are grateful to the management of this theatre for granting this opportunity so many times this year.
