Spectrum Student Parliament the moving finger writes, and having writ moves on. Khayyam-Fitzgerald JOE SALCAK RAYMOND LUCK The page has turned and the account for the year is irrevocably closed. This year has provided all of us with the opportunity to learn, and in our hearts we all know whether we have abused this opportunity or used it well. For those in the one-year course, the degree of success won here will be reflected in the success of their future pupils. Those in the two-year course have been exposed to many facets of education and are now more able to judge what is expected of them. The passing of the school year closes an old account, that of the old London Teachers ' College. After fifty-seven years of faithful, though lately crowded service, the old has been supplanted by the new London Teachers ' College. So it is with pleasant mem- ories that we bid the old farewell, and with high expectations greet the new. May we take this opportunity to wish all of you connected with the College the very best of good fortune. Our good wishes go out especially to those who are to start teaching next year. Joe Salcak, Prime Minister Raymond Luck, Vice Prime Minister Page 10

Spectrum TO THE GRADUATING CLASS: As you go out from these halls of learning you will bring with you a great number of friendships which you have established with both staff and students. I write now to add to that number. I greet you on behalf of the Clergy who have spent many hours with you discussing religion and its relationship to your life — and all of life. We send you our prayers and good wishes as you enter your chosen vocation. We have endeavoured to deepen your faith in God and in His Divine will and intention for the world. What you believe is so important. What you believe about God, about the universe, about life, about the moral law, will fashion your character, shape your personality — and influence your teaching. It is your privilege in the schools of this Province to share your knowledge and understanding of the Christian Religion with oncoming generations. You can do this in many ways as provided by the course of studies; but you will do it most effectively by being a believing and practising Christian. In dozens of ways, consciously and unconsciously, you share what you are — and what you have with those whom you teach in the dassroom. Your faith, your understanding of the meaning and purpose of life — indeed all your convictions will break through time and time again in your relationships with your students. Perhaps Egerton Ryerson had this in mind when he stated in regulations issued by him in 1846 As Christianity is the basis of our whole system of elementary education, that principle should pervade it throughout. Thus your Christian convictions, in addition to your skills of various sorts will be shared — and they will become prized possessions in the lives of your students. They will bring meaning and purpose and depth to education; they will provide a necessary synthesis to the many subjects in the curriculum; they will provide direction and dynamic to the lives of the young people you teach. In this way you not only contribute to the fullest growth of personality but you share in the development of Christian citizens at an important stage in our country ' s growth and expansion. My colleagues join me in wishing you ' good luck in the name of the Lord ' . THE REVEREND THOMAS R. HARRIS The following ministers kindly instri Rev. Tom Harris Rev. Morse Robinson Rev. F. T.
