NINETEEN FORTY-SIX - 5 TI-IE LU!-IERE HUD llll-IYFQR ctniioiemo When our forefathers came to this country, they found only a vast wilderness, the logs of which they used for their dwellings. For the foundation they chose the choicest tree in the forest. This log, which they so carefully selected, had to be well seasoned to last many years of wear and tear, and very strong to support the structure above it. Being the foundation, this log was only partially visible as it was sunken into the ground to give better stability and firmness to the building. Garneau was a wilderness, as far as this generation of High School students was concerned. We, the students of-1945-46, were the pioneers. We, unlike our forefathers, were unable to choose our foundation: we had to make it. Like theirs our foundation, also, has its hidden parts in the silent workers who played their part in this year's development. True, a great amount of organization has been done this year, but there is still much to be done. Certain clubs need reorganization in the fall on a more efficient scale. The Council will begin to follow the rules it laid down in the constitution. The Echo always has room for improvement and sports need more participation and support. We are not trying to criticize any one, because we couldn't begin to do so. All those responsible for this year's activities have worked hard. After all, this is only the first year and there are many more to come, so all our difhculties will be ironed out in time. But, it's something to think about for next year. Mixed with our difficulties were our successes. Turn-A-Bout and March Madness were great successes, socially if not financially. Our skating party, sleigh ride and lits will be remembered for a long time to come, We have been speaking of the foundation of Garneau High School, but there was another log in existence in the same building. Yes, we mean that group of people on the opposite page and Bill Syrotuck, who were continuously pestering you to buy a Year Book, namely the Garneau Log. We hope you like the way we have arranged the school's activities and happenings in the form of the log of the good ship Garneau High School . Our thanks to Miss Mclsaggan, Mr. Pilkington and the rest of the staff for their help in putting out this Year Book. Our thanks, also, to McDermid's studios and Commercial Printers for their advice on fshall we sayj technical points. Here, Garneau, is your foundation, let's see what kind of structure you can erect upon it. SANDY HOLMES, Chief Log Keeper.
