As The Yearly Reports Tell It- 1874.- The objects of the Institution should lie:-First, to give a thorough mastery of the practice anil theory of husbandry to young men of the Province engaged in Agricultural and Horti- cultural pursuits: and Second to conduct experiments tending to the solution of questions ot' material interest to the Agricultnrists of the Province, and to publish the results from time to time. 1875.- We want tive years to 1 luv the foundation. Other in- stitutions are finished at once: this is to be completed on a pro- gressive system. l87T.-We will take rank no longer as a 'Provincial Institu- tion' but will be looked upon with pride as one of the most promising of all the Technical Colleges. IW Fl 1897.- We are severely criticized once a year: we arc often misreprescnterl: but our old boys go hack to work with an increased liking for farm lifcg they are pushing to thc front as progressive, practical men: and wherever you tind them they are warm friends of the College. 1901.-As President, I express my heartfelt thanks to the Massey family and Sir William Macdonald for their generous and public-spirited liberalityf' 1907,- For each ot' two years we have reported our team as having won the judging trophy : at Chicago Exposition: it gives ml jg me the greatest possible pleasure N if I to record the fact that we have W, N now permanently won the E trophy. 1914.- ln the course ol' a visit to the Orient and the Anti- podes I found graduates of the O.A.C. doing good work both in New Zealand and Australia. 1880.-- The School of Agriculture heretofore established in the County of Wellington in this Province for instruction in the theory and practice of agriculture is hereby continued at its pres- ent site under the name of the Ontario Agricultural College and Experimental Farm ...... The Lieutenant-Governor in Council may agree with the University of Toronto for the alliliation ol' the said College with the said University. 1916.- Practically all the students who are tit have volun- teered during the past two years, and a few are slipping into uniform from time to time as their applications are accepted. Wounded soldiers are returning from the front. 1918.- Up to the very last College men were engaged in the battles in France and olhcl' parts ol' thc world, and we luive now on record Elti killed and as many more casualties.

He has taught in Public Schools. Ilitlh Schools. years association with him we know that it was not alone a sympathetic understanding, but the very nature ol' the Professor oi' English, Throughout the entire period which we have spent at College, the interests f-t' Twenty, their successes and failures, class work and College functions, their individual talents and foibles have concerned him equally as much as the members oi' the year. Indeed, the term, Hon- orary President, cannot be justly applied to Dr. Stevenson, if taken in the usual sense, tor he has in no way occupied a mere honorary pos- ition: he has been the iirst member of the year. Moreover this mav be extended to inclu le Mrs Stevenson h t .. . . Dr Stevenson is an educationist of wide and deep experience. Horn in a manse, he has always seized every o pportu nity of trav- elling beyond the arch where thro' gleams that untravelld world. Not only did he secure his wide knowledge ol' l monks and things in continue to remain Follcgiate Institutes, in two Ontario Univer- sities, in Normal School, anal since September, lillti, at thc 0.A.t7. As well he has been editor ot' a journal, a public lecturer, a Provin- cial examiner, and the author ot' such books as texts in literature, grannn:u', co npositioa, nature study and supplementary readinpz. A lecturer ot' high ideals. he is most en- thusiastic in his work and strives to impart his enthusiasm to his classes, not only in English but in general culture. Ready at all times to advise, he has been a loyal and gener- ous friend ot' Twenty, whose interests will his. And, although many new experiences and friends will focus the attention of past and present members ot' the year, they will never fail to remember the true friends they have possessed in Dr. and Mrs. Stevenson.
