8 woRKs AND DAYS My Dear Girls: As the time for parting draws near, it .is hard for me to say which emotion is stronger in my mind-joy, that the purpose of your presence here has been fulfilled and that you are going on to higher things in educa- tion and are about to test your training in your contact with the world- or sorrow, that you go from among us. The relation of teacher and pupil is a peculiar and an intimate one and, at its best, is closely akin to the relation of parent and child. Next to the home ties, the bonds that are formed in school are the strongest that bind the memory and the heart. So, while there will be pleasure in your success and pride in your achievement, a feeling of regret cannot be entirely effaced -regret that you are going-regret that the wonderful days of your child- hood are pastg May the memories of the years you have spent here, in a measure, compensate for the childhood that has gone from you-a childhood that perhaps interests you not at all now, in the enthusiasm of your ambitions, but its memories will often awake in the serious days to come. It has always been my earnest wish to provide for you all the happiness and content that was possible, to teach you courage and patience and faith, and to arm you in a quiet strength against all trouble. In the long years before you, may the memory of your days here be always happy, and may your training here prove a mighty bulwark in all your needs. i Lovingly, your friend, Z Z X 6K Q 7 cZf'vQ. g
