The WintJsor-Walkerville Technical School Year Book 9 fn Heroism VERY boy loves a story of adventure. Every girl ad¬ mires a hero. And of course the outstanding characteristic of a hero is the resolute way in which he encounters dangers and diffi¬ culties. II is surprising too how often difficulties and dangers are dissipated when opposed by a stout heart! Rut one doesn’t need to be in a story book to display hemic quali¬ ties, for “man is born to trouble as the sparks fly upward!” This is not a prophecy of gloom but a challenge to us to show what stuff we are made of. Life will present to each one of us trials and tribu¬ lations enough, lull moral strength is gained in no other way than by grappling with difficulties. MR. W. I). LOWE, M.A. Is it algebra or drafting that causes you grief? Or stenography or oral composition? Here is a chance to show heroic qualities. Grapple with your difficulty and refuse to give in until both shoulders have been pressed to the mat. Of course heroic attempts do not always end in success. LaSalle and Hudson went to watery graves, both murdered by their crews. Brave Capt. Cook fell a prey to savages. The storms and cold of the antarctic overcame Capt. Scott and his gallant companions. But “Death makes no conquest of these conquerors.” There is no disgrace if a brave attempt ends in failure. Failure is disgrace for those only who have refused to try. W. D. LOWE, Principal
