cf 'L mmm Ivy OraTion We are gafhered here To observe in solemn ceremony ThaT mosT symbolic oT our TradiTions, The planTing of The ivy. Each class beTore us has beauTiTied some parT of The building wiTh This planT, and iT may be observed ThaT The earlier planTings have acquired maTuriTy. ln The same way, The members oT The earlier classes have aTTained To The wider spheres oT influence. Full growTh was noT reached by ThaT ivy in a single year, nor was success aTTainecl by Those earlier graduaTes in a single sTride. So musT iT be wiTh This ivy and wiTh us. This ivy musT endure exTremes oT heaT and cold, oT rain and drouTh, and iT musT reach ouT every Tendril and avail iTselT oT every crevice in The wall Tor iTs supporT. ln The same way we musT endure The worsT adversiTy unTlinchingly and enioy The greaTesT success unspoiled. We musT send ouT every probe To TesT liTe's possibiliTies and seize upon every opporTuniTy which presenTs iTselT. Like This ivy, may we ever look up To new heighTs oT aTTainmenT and may we ever reach ouT To broader Tields of learning. May we, lilce The ivy, in scaling liTe's wall, also seelr To beauTiTy ThaT wall Tor The beneTiT oT oThers who pass our way. THOMAS HODG-SON Page Thidy N
