54 Bbe 'Echoes Valebictory Abbress, 1935 R. CHAIRMAN, guests, members of the staff, and students of Peter- borough Collegiate and Vocational School: Once again tl1e day of the Commence- ment Exercises has arrived. another class has graduated and this afternoon it is n1y privilege to try to convey to you the feel- ings of the graduates of 1935 as we bid farewell to P.C.V.S., that dear old school we learned to love and respect so much. and the memory of which will always be cherished in our hearts. But first let me express my thanks for the honour of be- ing chosen to speak to you today on be- half of those who graduated last June: and I only hope that I may succeed. in some measure at least, in voicing the thoughts which enter our minds when we look back on our tive wonderful years spent in this institute. It is with mingled feelings of joy and regret that we assemble here for the last time today. Ive are sorry to leave. to have no longer the privilege of attending classes in I'.C.VS.. of wandering along the old familiar corridors. and of ever again participating in any of the school functions. On the other hand we look forward with great pleasure to the new experiences of life which lie ahead of us. to the new dithculties to be conquered and to the many opportunities the future holds for us. How swiftly the years in collegiate have flown by. It seems only a day since we came here for the nrst time and timidly sat in this assembly hall awaiting instructions where to go. At that time how far-distant and unattainable fifth form seemed. It rep1'esented the pinnacle of success to us then: and yet. all too soon, we reached this topmost and honoured position in tl1e school and have now passed on. some to pursue further education and others to start out at. once i11to tl1e various branches of business life. However. although we have graduated, we will never forget our school and all it has meant to us: nor will we forget our teachers who were ever willi11g to help us with our difficulties and who patiently guided us over that period of life in which we most needed guidance. giving us the necessary training to enable us to go out into the world with a sense of confidence. To you. lIr. Kenner. our able principal. and your excellent staff. we owe a great deal and today we wish to express our appreciation for your inter- est i11 us and to thank you heartily for your untiring eFfort.s in making P.C.V.S. such a fine school. It is a, school to which we are all justly proud to have belonged. a school which ranks high among those of the province and which will. we hope. continue to keep up its fine standard. 'l'o you. who remain, falls the duty of upholding the name of I .C.V.S. and of helping to raise it to even loftier levels. It is only with the whole-hearted Sllpp0l't of tl1c student body that this may be accomplished. The various school activi- ties such as rugby. basketball. hockey, the I,iterary Society. the orchestra. the year book and the camera club all need enthusiasm and school spirit behind them in order that they may be a success. The teachers are willingly doing their .share and it rests with each one of you to do your part for the good of the school. Ive have been following with great interest your rugby teams this year and are very pleased at their success. The . ,T -f .. - -ff ,..t e -- 1 sg Q ef if --'. 1 - - . 4 ll
