Page Ten THE SPARTALOGUE — 1957 M e s s a g e We look back with pride and forward with confident anticipation. The class of 1956 won two of the finest scholarships ever awarded to Forster students. I know the happy winners would be first to accord credit to the co-operation and competition of their classmates. Would not the class of 1957 agree that the splendid efforts of a few are not enough, that each is helped or hindered by the others, that just as natural growth is dependent upon a favourable climate, so intellectual and spiritual growth is de¬ pendent upon a beneficent environment? May this class and each succeeding one play a part in building traditions of eager curiosity, alert attention, spirited discus¬ sion, loyal co-operation, and earnest study that will make our school a potent force in a growing and maturing Canada. MR. T. P. STEADMAN CONGRATULATIONS May we express our congratulations and best wishes to Mr. R. B. Whetstone who is leaving Forster to begin his duties as vice-principal of Patterson Collegiate and Mr. C. B. Courtney who has taken a leave of absence to continue his work towards a Ph.D. degree at the University of Michigan. We also extend our best wishes to Mrs. Ray, Mrs. Sanborn, Mrs. Mc¬ Kenzie, Miss Smart, Miss Ham and Mr. Jenkins who will be leaving us this June. Graduation 57 This day we leave, to come no more Into these hallowed halls of lore, Where knowledge gained shall ne’er be lost For many hours of work it cost— Though different paths we tread. To some it means the end of toil O’er worthy books, by midnight oil. To others it is but a start— A joyous step with prayerful heart In this great game of life. The cheers that rang about the gym, The silent prayers, the holy hymn The fear of “finals” that in us grew Are not forgotten for they too Rest deep within our hearts. The lasting friendships that we made, The work not done (for which we paid) Are memories which we’ll cherish still As each, God’s purpose does fulfil On this great earth of ours. As we recall the years gone by, The way that all, with spirits high Gained one dear gift—a love Of learning—for this above All else, is why we came. But to our teachers the most we owe, They strove in every way to show That by hard work we may succeed— Attain all things we want and need For a rich and joyous life. 1C A. ml es at. I A m es at P.
