BEVERLY FROST Photography .ssss,t., MARIAN HAMBLEY IT HAS been a grand experience to have had the pleasure of being editoi of the 1944 Vox Fluminis, and I would like to express my sincere thanks for the marvellous co-operation which I have received. Another year has ended for Riverbend, a year still enshrouded in war clouds. The year has had its worries, disappointments, failures, and sadnesses, as other years before and those to follow, but these are not the things that we will carry away with us as memories. 'fFor we know, not every morrow can be sad, So, forgetting all the sorrow we have had, Let us fold away our fears, And put by our foolish tears And through all the coming years Just be glad. On all sides these days we hear talk of, and see plans being made for our post-war world. We as Riverbenders, will all have our part. to play in the world of tomorrow. So let us all be ready to accept what ever challenge comes to us. We all want more than anything else to make this world a truly happier place for everyone. So let. each one of us in ourselves prepare for that happiness. All, who joy would win, must share itg-happiness was born a twin, wrote Byron. This is the way to happiness to have someone to love, to live for, and to serve, to- live in the lives of others, to make oneself of worth to his fellows, to hold aloft in the world the lantern of helpful friendship. Write your name in kindness, love and mercy on the hearts of all you meet. A life of love and service always keeps a fresh radiance in one's soul. Someone has expressed it in this little coupletg . True happiness if understood, Consists alone in doing good.
