FOR Tf1E SCl1OCDL YEAR 1 969-1 970 5 Qgislqnp is lflninrrsfilfg Egenurnxiiille, Que. JOHN H. PRICE CHANCELLOR IQBO SHERBROOKE STREET WEST U TE 620 MON REAL 25 P O I remember very vividly your graduation ceremonies of 1969, at which you were kind enough to invite me to present the prizes. I was impressed not only with the obviously fine educational facilities of the School, but by the patience and good nature and courtesy of the boys in listening to their guest of honour. In this foreword to your School Magazine I feel I can do no better than to repeat the theme of my short address. - HNo game is any fun without rulesu - Think of hockey, football, etc. - without rules all of these games would be meaningless, and meaningless activities are no fun. The game of life is just the same. If we had no rules or laws, as we call them, life would become chaotic. Social stability would cease and so would the enjoyment of life by all people. History shows that violent revolutions inevitably end in dictatorship and the result usually is conflict, which causes suffering and injustice. The best course appears to be progressive evolution leading to rules or laws which can be accepted by all sections of the com unity. You are fortunate in this great School in having the resources available to teach you to think deeply and to reason logically, which will enable you to act constructively to ensure a peaceful and great future for Canada. Good luck to all of you. Kywf , zfCfc4.,Q Q,
