Spafnow Zzamily Third Prize Frank Faber The little couple built their nest, Close to the highway which ran west. And as the days came and went, The summer soon was nearly spent. Much commotion I did spy, One fine day as I went by. But no breeze stirred as I looked on. At the wee couple and their son. The game was one of follow-the-lead. As flying lesson did proceed. With much concern and tender care, They egged him on to take the air. Then all at once, away he went- Up and up and up, 'till spent He slithered to a stop for rest- Riqht up on the highway's crest- I closed my eyes and wished that l Had not this day come wandering by. 49

7fne Gfzallemfe Uf 7eacfzin9 Third Prize Victor Parker The shaping of the lives of our future leaders is sometimes taken too lightly. Underlying our educational system. is the idea of the development of good attitudes by the pupil to help him make his way in our complex modern society. We, as teachers. must realize that personal problems which belong to the pupil seem. to him. to be immensely large. These problems. if left unsolved. may lead the pupil to become wrapped in a cocoon of bewilderment. It has been said in many different ways. that to teach is to love. and to love is to display the indescribable witchery of natural tenderness. Love of beauty and of all lovely and wonderful things is indispensable to our growth. Love can combine humility with pride. passion with peace. self-assertion with self-surrender and violence of feeling with tenderness. It can sublimate our strongest desires into ioy and a realization of a fuller life. It has been said that, In love one has need of being believed and in friendship of being understood . Teaching is remarkably adapted to this aesthetic truth. HOWARD WILLIAMS DIAMONDS and WATCHES SCHOOL PINS TROPHIES 20-22 MeNab Street North Hamilton. Canada LORDLY JONES CO.
