DEAR ELMWOOD Dear Elmwood: It is very sad for me to say goodbye to you. As head- mistress of Elmwood for seven years I have enjoyed car- ing for you and teaching you more than I can say. I hope that one day, when you come to choose your vocation, you will be just as fortunate as I have been to find work that you really lo ve. If it is to do with people and if it is a giving rather than a getting kind of job, then I think that you will be happy too, wherever you are. One of our graduating girls told me recently that she had learned how much more interesting school days are if we give them all we have. Will you next year try to take your full part in the whole life of your school? Volunteer for extra duties, even if they do seem awkward and time- consuming. Give that extra bit, walk that extra mile. For Elmwood is a lovely school, isn ' t it? and it is well worth pre- serving in a world where little things are being squeezed out so quickly. But, hke democracy, it is only as good as each individual in it. So often it seems that our same few girls do all the hard work, while the rest enjoy the fun and the privileges which these others have won for them. This is not the mark of a just society , is it, nor does it reflect our House mottoes. Thank you for all your loving wishes and for your won- derful presents. Soon after we get to England I am going to start arranging next summer ' s tour, so I am already looking forward to seeing many of you again. Meanwhile have a very happy and successful year, write to me if you have time and may God bless you and keep you always. - Your affectionate friend, 3
