-nonin- Duel A mu, PREMIER HENRY Message for the London Normal School With this message I wish to assure each teacherfinftraining, now about to leave our Normal Schools, that, if a position is not immediately available, on account of conditions felt by other callings and professions at the present time, there is good reason for hoping that the skies are clearing and that our Province will at no distant date resume its Wonted prosperity. I most fully appreciate the devotion to duty which has been so consistently characteristic of our teachers, and in which they doubtless have found, and will continue to find, their greatest joy. Now, as perhaps never before, do we realize the important part which our schools must play in the development of good citizens. Herein must our teachers strive to 'train the youth of our Province that they may love and covet those things which make for decency and honour, and to shun those influences which would tend to destroy that social fabric of which we as loyal Canadians are justly proud. In these schools you will find the opportunity to render worthfwhile service, and I am confident that you are well equipped for the task, in the accomplishment of which I bespeak for you every success, GEO. S. HENRY, April 12th, 1934. Minister of Education. Page Eight

Qt,-vo mscuw: 9 - S ou 'ff Appreciation T has been said that competition is the life of trade. In reality it is cofoperation that goes to hring success in any venture. And so it is in the compiling of a Year Book. Opposition by students or masters, spells failure, whereas a cofoperf tive feeling is certain to bring success. Thus it is with the deepest appreciation that we thank, iirstly the masters of our school for so willingly giving of their time and knowledge, that our took might be one, worthy of bearing the school's name. Linked with our appreciation to the masters goes our heartiest thanks to the entire student body. No editorial staff could have hoped to receive more help and consideration from the body which it represented. Our advertising staff has keen an unusually efhcient one. The returns from their efforts wiped away all our financial worries. Closely allied with the advertising staff go the names of our advertisers. Our appreciation to them can hest be shown by our patronage. And now coming down to individuals. Firstly, we must mention Dr. Hofferd, our director and supervising editor, whose helpful criticisms and many suggestions greatly simplified our work. Mr. Black, of Photo Engravers, Ltd., and Mr. Franks, of Hayden Press, were more than business men- they were real friends. Space does not permit us to make mention of the many others who helped to make this book possible. It is sufficient to say that their efforts were appreciated in no mean way. And now our work is completed. The right to criticise is yours. In doing so please rememher that the hook is as you made it. We were merely servants putting as best we could your thoughts and actions into words. THE EDITORS. YEAR BOOK STAFF Back Row:-J. AN'rn.L, M. ROBERTSON, K. Lrrrtia. A. GRAINGER, E. CARTER, W.
