THE ECHOES PETERBOROUGH COLLEGIATE and VOCATIONAL SCHOOL 1940 The Cover Design: Certain of Sword and Pen We think that this yearls cover design is very suitable for a school magazine published in the first year of the War. The artist, Jim Lillico, found his inspiration in the familiar words over the Assembly Hall stage: Stand to your Work and be Wise, ' Certain of sword and pen, Who are neither children nor gods, But men in a World of men. ' Rudyard Kipling APRIL, 1940 VOLUME XXVI Page Nine

Peterborough Collegiate and Vocational School vi COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE In the Collegiate Institute pupils are prepared for entrance into the Normal Schools, the Universities, and Professional Schools. Attendance for four years, and in most cases, five, is required to complete the studies in this school. VOCATIONAL SCHOOL In the Commercial Department of the Vocational School pupils are prepared for commercial pursuits. It requires four years to obtain a Commercial Graduation Diploma.

In the Industrial Arts Department of the Vocational School courses are offered in Draughting, Machine Shop Practice, Woodworking, Auto Mechanics, and Elec- tricity.
