her above mediocrity. He urged that our graduates join the “construction crew, not the wrecking crew.’’ After the exercises, a dance took place in the gaily decorated auditorium. GRADUATION Twelve long years with old school mates; Twelve short years in and out those gates. Twelve short years of joy and sorrow, Twelve long years to prepare for the morrow. The future holds such varied tasks; The roles of many still wear masks. Like a high blown wave at sea, Students ponder which way prosperity may be. One long new life full of friendly names; One short life to fulfill our aims. One short life to try our best; One long life for joy and rest. Graduation falls between the two, The future’s hazy, the past is in review. —Gordon Parker Grade XII

February 5: This was a fun-filling “soir” with no lack of “M.C.S.” The party was in the high school auditorium as usual, and as usual, we danced to records. While changing M.C.’s cn the fly, Mr. Reimer told us one story that raised the hearty haw-haws to the gym roof, about when he was a little boy in the Alps. Apparently the echoes were fabulous, and he kindly demonstrated. “Baloney.” Silence. “Dale Laird is a good dancer!” Came the echo answer “Baloney!” Bob Petrie was declared B.H.S.’s prized “foot-stepper onner” (worst dancer) but he wasn’t. Your laurels are safe, Bob! Doreen Petrie won the door prize. April 9: Grade eleven produced a very acceptable evening for the student body on this occassion. Novelty dances and games kept the party “jumping.” Poor Mr. Beibel ... he just can’t win. They told him to break his balloon in the balloon dance by stepping on it, so he did . . . and then got “screamed” at for “stomping” on it the wrong way. Did you know that we have girls around here with fifty-inch waists? No kidding, that’s what the boys think! Graduation Sixteen graduates, the first class of the new B.H.S. to graduate, were honored on the evening of May 13, with a banquet, exercises, and a dance. The banquet was served in the Memorial Hall, followed by a short program. Toasts were made as follows: To the Queen—Pat Miskiman; to the graduates—Mr. Reimer; Reply—■ Shirley Anderson; to the parents—Irene Fafard; Reply—Mr. Roy Miskiman; to the teaching staff—Glenn Hanson; Reply—Mr. Gobie; to the school board—Gordon Parker; Reply—Mr. S. Dempsey. The exercises followed in the school auditorium. The high points of the program were the address by the guest speaker, Mr. M. A. Huch, and the valedictory by Pat Morrice. The program was rounded out by several musical numbers, including Miss Cope’s Chorus. Pat’s valedictory was summed up in the poem she quoted at the end. Mr. Huch’s address stressed the point that Canada’s hope lies in her coming generation to raise
