J5he WHISPER VOL. 1 INDIAN HEAD COLLEGIATE, JUNE, 1929 NO. I EDITORIAL The first appearance of a collegiate Year Book for a number of years, re¬ quires some explanation of the charac¬ ter which it is intended to bear and of the purpose which it is designed to serve. We do not intend that it shall be a technical, learned journal in which will be found the views of experts on themes and in language quite unintelligible to the general reader. This is a magazine for the students and by the students. It gives the budding literary geniuses an opportunity to open their leaves, and is intended to bind the students into a closer fellowship. Within the last few years, education¬ alists have been stressing the import¬ ance of a diversity of school activities, altho you will find many who are not in agreement with this idea. It is quite as important that a student know how to conduct a business meeting in an efficient manner as to be able to give the future perfect of moneo or solve some theoretical geometrical problem. I firmly believe in disciplinary education; the mind needs discipline as well as the body, but is it not foolish for persons to criticize our educational institutions for not holding rigidly to the three R’s, when we realize that education in the true sense is the fitting of a student for his life in society ? A collegiate is not a correspondence school, it is not even a mere font of knowledge; but is a place which adjusts and develops a conception qf Life; and while part of its purpose is to impart knowledge, a greater part is to develop character. Honorable character and sportsmanship are formed as much on the football field as in the classroom. When a student leaves the collegiate institute, the foundation stones of his personality have been laid and the fu¬ ture structure will be built on that foundation. Knowing this could we just¬ ify our conduct if we stopped instruction, supervision and help at the classroom doors ? In order to be of any assistance must we not try to understand those we seek to advise, and to do this we must meet them informally and try to develop in them all characteristics which may help their development in body, mind and soul, and hope that as they pass from this collegiate they go out fitted to be up-right and true men and women. MR. HARRIS Principal Forward In introducing this Year Book to the students, and to those who are inter¬ ested in their activities—we wish to make no apology for its existence. This, we believe, is the first real Year Book published by the Indian Head Col¬ legiate. It is, we might say, an endeav¬ our to bring into the lime-light an esprit-de-corps, which up to this time has not been much in evidence. We, the editorial staff, wish to thank those who gave us their co-operation when our representatives solicited their assistance. We endeavoured to give them full value for every advertisement they contributed- We fully realize that our book is not perfect, but we hope that it will be such a success that it will become the per¬ manent institution that it really should be. D. MACKAY Grade XII
