NORMAL SCHOOL LONDON ONTARIO WM. PRENDERGAST, B.A., B. Paed., Principal Good Bye! Twos a smiling morn in May When the Commodore Jacques Cartier to the westward sailed away. XN a few weeks, more than two hundred adventurers, full of high hopes, endowed with health and possessed of vigor, will sail away from this port into an uncharted sea. Only the few will become commodores and reach new shores; the many will become A B ' s but the able-bodied seaman, provided he is truly able-bodied, has his place in the world scheme. Teaching is a great adventure, life itself is a great adventure, but the possessor of a disciplined mind may pass through it with happiness and contentment no matter in what walk he finds himself. On behalf of the staff of the school I wish the graduating class suc- cess, not only material success but also and particularly the success that is measured by attaining a well-spent life.
