To the Class of January, 1952: Yours, I believe, is the last class with which I have the opportunity to share those intimate memories that only a classroom can produce. It would be easy to fill this brief note with rather joyful recollections of the days when I inquired, Comment allez-vous?, and you admitted that everything was going tres bien. Then somebody else wanted to know, Ou est le bureau de posted, but I doubt if anyone else gave a straightforward answer to that one, so we let it go At Christmas we guessed the num¬ ber of pieces of candy in a jar, only somebody rigged it. Do you remember. ' ' And I think we got Remi safely off the houseboat and back to Mother Barberin before you went on to conditional sentences and Mr. Ruthrauff, and growing un to be the campus leaders, and team captains, and editors, and now the members of the graduating class. I know that I must have given you a lot of free advice then along with a dis¬ course on the mathematics of grammar and occasional suggestions as to types of be¬ havior most conducive to classroom calm. I know that you could not have forgotten all that counsel, any more than some of you can ever forget what that quartet once did to Dry Bones , so I shall not burden this message with advice. I know we have given you a fair share of the standard techniques for making a success of life and you have done well in learning to use them. We have trained your minds, shaped your bodies, pulled your wisdom teeth, and supplied spiritual guidance from qualified laymen seven days each week. In the process, I hope we have not warp¬ ed or stifled what our French friends call the joie de litre. I hope each one of you will carry with him that ability to scorn self pity, that habit of not taking himself too seriously, that quest for those elements of life that arc as the tangy spices in the fine sauce. You had a keen zest for living the first time I met you. It was one of your finest attributes, one of your best assets. Don ' t let the smog of the world tarnish it. You walk down each street just once, so why not leave the memory of a whistled tunc behind you. ' I know that what we have given you will help you to be good men, successful men, God-fearing men. I dare to hope that you may also be happy men. Vodd la cloche tjut tonne! Au revoir, met enfant Bonne chante W. B. WOLCOTT Director of Secondary Education
