25th Anniversary Edition THE TOWERS Page Three A Message to the Students S. R. ROSS Principal OOD SERVICES of a wide variety are available throughout - 7 Ontario and certainly in cities such as Windsor. This is so J consistently the case that our citizens, old and young, take such matters for granted. We do not appreciate natural gas, for instance, until we no longer have it and we are surprised to learn of a scarcity of electricity when such occurs. We enjoy these and many other facilities as well, because of the efforts and talents of many persons who are ready to serve us and who have become skilful by dint of hard work. Behind things are able executives—men who head-up big businesses in a big way. To boys and girls, such men have attained a goal so distant as never to be reached by themselves! And yet. among these men are former students of the Vocational School. To them, the time spent within these walls seems but yesterday. They think of those days as an en¬ joyable and valuable part of the business of life. This thought was expressed in varying ways when hundreds of former students gathered here on April 9th to join in our Home¬ coming event, one of a series of celebrations tor our 1 wenty-fiflh Anniversary. 1 wish to congratulate all who have so ably co-operated to pro¬ duce our 1948 Year Book. The Anniversary Issue. It is evidence of a fine piece of team work.
