Declzcatwn As a tribute to his twenty years of dynamic and inspiring service to Pickering College, this edition of The Voyagcur is affectionately dedicated to Joseph lVIcCulley. Old boys, parents. former staff members, and all those who make up the family of Pickering will join us in saying thank you to a great educa- tionist and, even more significantly, to the personal friend of every one who has made his home on the hilltop at one time or another. It was not a coincidence that our Quaker board under the chairmanship of Mr. A. S. Rogers entrusted the reopening of Pickering in 1927 to this youthful graduate of the Universities of Toronto and Oxford, where he had formulated an educational philosophy which was based more than anything else on the Christian belief in the worth of each individual. This was the tie between the young headmaster and the age-old Society of Friends he was coming to serve. This was the seed which pro- duced the way of education which those of us who know Pickering revere as its essential spirit. In an age of mass pro- duction this emphasis on the individual in education is Mc- Culley's greatest contribution to Pickering and to Canadian education beyond. To those who know Joe it was no surprise that he should wish to face the challenge of new responsibilities in the na- tional field. In his tasks as Deputy Commissioner of Peniten- tiaries he carries our good wishes and our confidence that he will continue Hto strive, to seek, to find and not to yield . -H.hl.l3. Paige Ill
