The Windsor-Walkerville Technical School Year Book 11 JFiuTliwrit Ours is a pioneer movement. We belong to a type of school that is new, that is distinctively of this age and, therefore, shares in common with all pioneer movements those qualities that mark all ventures in new fields—vision, initiative, trial, daring, labour, even failure, that, failure that “falls to rise again” because of faith in the vision. Our Year Book is a record of our attempt along various lines and in many directions, to build up within our walls a type of school-life and of education that will meet the needs of the age in which we live. Those who come after will see clearly where we have failed and will profit there¬ by. They will also, we feel sure, realize that we strove earnestly to give ihem the fruits of our labour. “And yet the road is ours and never theirs, Is not one joy on us alone bestowed? For us the Master Joy, oh Pioneers, We shall not travel, but we make the road.” M. Belton.

12 The Windsor-Walkerville Technical School Year Book (Die Srluml Jixt Prize Editorial—Maude Holding—C3A. As the flag is to a country, so the school pin is to a school. The flag is the symbol of all that is true and noble in a country, and so the pin stands for all that is noble in a school. The Windsor VValkerville Technical School has its school pin—just a little silver pin decorated in red and blue bearing the gilded letters W. W.T. But it is of more than sterling worth to Technical students. We wear it gladly, with befitting pride, for does it not stand for the devotion, loyalty, and interest we give to our school? When we wear it, we must do no action that may sully its reputa¬ tion or its honour. We must act like courageous and honourable Tech¬ nical students and thus show the true spirit of Our School. ' LIU ' Salute the HJaititnr I pity our poor Janitors, As all good people must; For every morn the good old souls Again return to dust. He’s not such a bad fellow, after all. He gets cross at us, of course, for dropping gum and chocolate bar wrappers on his cleanly-swept floors— but then we get cross at much more trifling things, sometimes. But he can take a joke, too. When we kid him along, he just laughs it off, or flings back an equally effective answer. His job isn’t what it’s cracked up to be, either. Think of polishing door-knobs and cleaning windows all day long, with a few half-mile trips pushing a broom around and carrying a pail of sawdust, while we sit and worry our brains as to how we can get out of doing some of the work that we know ought to be done. The janitor, however, is wiser than we are and goes to work with a will. After all, he is a pretty good sport—salute him, Tech! AUDREY GLENDENNINO, (Cnniu ' utinu of Smntharu $ rhonl fc tnrs On November 17th. the C. N. R. train headed for Toronto carried with it two passengers from the Windsor-Walkerville Technical School, who were destined to attend the Second Annual Convention of the Ont¬ ario Secondary School Editors. The convention is held yearly by the Sigma Delta Phi for the pur¬ pose of aiding School Editors with their publications. The convention was composed of lectures, field trips, and a banquet given by the Toronto downtown press.
