Thinking of young people in general and young Canadians in particular is very exciting. Pictures in our history books show a lot of bearded old looking people who were the founders, explorers and builders of Canada, Beards were worn in those days and made ■these men appear old. Although ' this seems a simple explanation, the pictures were often made after these men had finished their wonderful deeds, Henry Kelsey joined the Honourable Company of Gentlemen Adventurers which we know as the Hudson ' s Bay company in the year 1684 at the age of fourteen. When he was nineteen he was ut ashore with an Indian boy north of the Churchill River to trade with the Northern Indians . At twenty, he was head of an expedition into the West, and was the first white man to see the buffalo. Samuel Hearae discovered the Coppermine River on 13 July, 1769 when he was twenty-four. When the North-West Mounted Police was formed the men who joined the force were mostly thirty years old. Your own Colonel Irvine was one of them. Nowadays Canada is called a young country. Sometimes this is infuriating because the words are used in a patronizing way. This however, should never upset any young Canadian who ha8 pride in his or her land, and a determination to continue the youthful ideals of those who followed the stars, and had great moral and physical courage. These are the ones who set a pattern of good quality. Cattlemen imported the finest animals so that the best breeds would be bred on the great grasslands. Men in the business world have insisted that the best ethics guide their production, and manufacturers efforts are continually being made to give our young people the best education. The Right Honourable Vincent Massey, C.H., had this to say in a speech to the students at the University of British Columbia, ...you have, or you should have by now, a conception of knowledge and insight in all areas worthy of investigation, as rewards in themselves. Having such a conception, it is for you by example and precept to promote the love of truth and the desire for knowledge. It is for you to represent to others less fortunate, that aspect of civilization without which all our material comforts are worthless; without which we cannot provide for the good life of the individual in society. It is for you to show in yourselves that the love of pure knowledge, and the earnest pursuit of it, are as much the obligation of the democratic citizen as the exercise of the vote and the acceptance of public office . I should like to thank you for your great compliment in inviting me to write a few thoughts for your year book. You have given me many hours of pleasant thought about you; sometimes to search through collections of histories and books of writings, as well as a challenge to which you have set me a perceived ideal that it is well to look upward . oO« '
