Welcome Do LUIS The doors of BHS were opened to Sarah and Joe Liang, daughter and son of Rev. and Mrs. H. T. Liang. During these past few months with us, they have taught us many of their oriental customs. Having them in our community and school has been a valuable and rewarding experience to jt p e t A o n a i w e A A a 9 3r o m s a r a h an J 3° Sarah and I were given the special privilege of writing a few words in the annual. My sister being a senior and very busy at this time, could not help me; thus, leaving the heavy burden on my shoulders. I tried very hard to think of something to write with my poor English, and decided to write about our school history. In September, 1953,.my family and I arrived in Kobe, Japan, after about five years of residence in Formosa. Upor arrival, my brother, Clarence, Sarah, and I had trouble finding a school to attend. There was a Chinese school but it was strongly influenced by the Chinese Communists in that land. Japanese schools also came into consideration, but fearing ttat we might be mistreated, they were out. Then we found out about on English school, and with nowhere else to go, we applied for that English school, St. Micheal's School, and were glodly received. My sister went into the third grade and I entered the second grade. We attended St. Micheal's School for five years. Then we changed to a Canadian School, Canadian Academy. We attended Canadian Academy the rest of our time in Japan. And last September, like a miracle, we arrived in Bancroft. We could not believe our eyes in seeing that the town was so small, but, to our astonishment, the longer we stay the more we feel the town is growing larger, more friendly, and nicer. We owe thanks and gratitude to the whole student body, the faculty, and even the town in making us feel so welcome. J ’ A V 2
