FROM THE HEADMASTER'S STUDY As l write this, my fourth an- nual message to the Georgian, it is the middle of February, and we are still shovelling out from some of the heaviest snowfalls in years. Our new Chaplin, the Reverend Michael Burgess, arrived from England to take up his duties just as the snow began to fall, and l suspect that by now he is won- dering whether he did the right thing. He has yet to contend with our other extreme - the hot humid summers characteristic of Southern Ontario. The school year thus far has been one of the most eventful in recent memory. The fall was, as usual, filled with athletic events in soccer and cross-country racing, as well as the full complement of academic activity. There seemed scarcely a moment in which to reflect upon what it all meant. Christmas exams, the annual carol service at the Cathedral tone ol' the c and the best yet, l thinkj, Christmas holidays came and went in rapid succession. On January 4th Grade 6 and the two Grade 8 classes moved into their new classrooms in what used to be the Junior School Gym- nasium. l well remember what a dingy place that was in our first year, I964-1965, and the Saturday we invited the student body to rip up the old and rotting wooden floor, so that we might replace it with something more modern. The tile that was laid as a resttlt now serves as the lloor ol' tlte new classrooms, tnarker lines l'or basketball still intact! ln scarcely more than four week's time thc March Break begins, followed by another tertn of hectic activity inside tlte classroom and out - softball games between the boys and the masters, track and field competitions, the Ladies' Guild luncheon, tlte Old Boys' Dinner. the Athletic Banquet, and the handing in of term essays, the writing ot' final exams, and Prize Day. And by the time you see this in print, the whole process will have begun again for yet another year. The pace at which we liye. especially in these times, should cause us all to draw up short now and again, and relleet ttpon the meaning and importance ot' ss hat it is wc'rc doing and hots ise're doing it. lf we lose ottr perspectiie of this, we are in danger ol' lostng perhaps the most important nn' derstanding we can gain abottt out all too brief span here on earth. and end up like tlte old man some years ago who, shortly before his death. caused to be inscribed on his tombstone: John Reade - born August l2th, lS 3 - died September l8th, l97l, in his 98th year - 'Now what was that all about'?'
