THE SPARTALOGUE — 1957 Page Five Forster Collegiate 1957 XTINETEEN hundred and fifty-seven will long be remembered as a year of progress and improvement at J. L. Forster Collegiate. School spirit has reached a new high, teams have improved, and scholarships are increasing. Even the school building itself now greets us with a proud new face as a result of the extensive redecoration program completed this winter. Most impressive, as one enters the school, is the auditorium. The grey- blue ceiling and pillars enhance the beauty of the new cyclorama curtains which so proudly adorn the stage. Refreshing pastel colours on the walls in each classroom have lifted us out of the doldrums that had bogged us down in the past. Practical new cabinets and shelves have replaced dilapidated old cupboards. In the newly-decorated gymnasium, there is not only a new floor but also a new electric scoreboard. Yes, Forster C. I. is still marching forward. Once again, after only seven years, the walls of our school must expand. We look forward to the addition of eight rooms in the fall of this year, for it means more teachers, more students, more friends, and greater achievements as the Spartan spirit marches on. t

Spartalogue 1957 F ROM the lips of my eighth-grade teacher on graduation night came words which I have found especially inspiring. He said, “Success is the ultimate reward of preparation, meditation and dedication.” In adopting this creed, I find its message true in every phase of life, even to life itself. A worthy goal can be honestly achieved by conscientious preparation, silent meditation, and complete dedication. Indeed, this motto can be applied from the fulfilment of daily menial tasks to the realization of God’s master plan. And so it is with this yearbook. The preparation of this yearbook has entailed long hours of hard, sometimes discouraging, but al¬ ways gratifying labour. Our very capable advisory editors, Miss Scarfone and Miss Laithwaite, deserve praise from all the students—not only from us whose blood is half ink, but also from the readers who may just care to gloss over our endeavours. A mere “thank you” is insufficient in summarizing our great esteem. There is also instilled in this yearbook a host of silent prayers. On each page is the work of many, and to all those who participated, we give heartfelt thanks. We are indebted to the English department for submitting stories and poems for the literary pages, to Miss Gurney for help in photography, and to the generous senior commercial students who typed all the articles appearing in the Spartalogue. We ask you to patronize our advertisers, whose generosity and interest have been an inspiration to us. As you view the product of our “preparation, meditation, and dedication”, we trust you will feel that we have, in some small measure, achieved success. And now we dedicate the 1957 Spartalogue to you, our reader. Gail Casey—Editor.
