Head Mistress ' Letter Dear Elmwood, Centennial year is nearly over and it has been very exciting for us all. Apart from visiting Expo 67 we have heard much about our country this year and we have also sung about it, written about it, and portrayed its history on the stage. We can never understand other people unless we really know them. Similarly, we must try to know our big country as it streches from the Atlantic to the Pac- ific before we can claim to be true Canadians. Do try to travel as much as you can to all parts of this great land of Canada and then go abroad to visit other continents where the ways of men and women and boys and girls are different from our own. When Fran Wilson went to Crofton House School in Vancouver for a month last fall and Timmy Wills came in exchange to us, we were symboliz- ing our desire to know our country better. Many Canadians have never seen a sea-gull or a glacier or a gopher. There are probably many who have never seen a real maple leaf. Elmwood was very honoured to send Janet Uren to the Yukon last summer on a trip spo nsored by the Ontario Dept. of Education. Not many of us know the North, unfortunately, but those who have been there come back with shining eyes and wonderful tales to tell. It is with pride that we publish in our Centennial Samara Janet ' s prize-winning poem on Canada, and I urge you all to go to far- away places and meet faraway people. If you are not able to travel yet, do spend much time reading and watching movies about other places, for it is in this way that you will grow up to under- stand that all the people of the world are part of God ' s precious family for whom He wants only peace. Your affectionate friend and headmistress. STAFF Back row.
