MR. MQCDONALD MR. HUTCHISON ln our travels last summer we were privileged to visit for the first time the majestic Canadian Rockies. As we were about to enter the Kootenay National Park in British Columbia, we noticed inscribed over the gateway these words: The mountains shall bring peace to the people. Truly this was our experience as we sojourned among those eternal hills. The majesty and grandeur of the snow-capped peaks, the glaciers flowing from the ever- lasting snows, the fresh verdure of the woodlands as they crept upward to timberline, the serenity of the placid lakes cradled in the vast expanse of valleys, the mighty rush of the rivers as they danced and glistened in spark- ling cascades, leaped from vertical cliffs in mighty water- falls and moved ever onward with swift current to three mighty oceans-all this brought to us peace and quiet confidence. If the peoples of this troubled world could withdraw for short intervals from the strife and turmoil of these per- plexing days to the majesty and beauty of nature with which our land is so abundantly blessed, assuredly quiet and confidence would be inspired in our souls and peace and security would reign among the nations. Graduates, as you step from the portals of this school to enter the work-a-day world, may you frequently find periods of rest and refreshment where the strength of the hills shall be yours also. Sincerely, Charles W. MacDonald To the 1947 Graduates: It has been said that man- kind is now confronted with a common enemy, the igno- rance and confusion of man's own heart. The whole world is in a post war period of reconstruction and stabil- ization. We appear to be at the threshold of a new age, the Atomic Age, the potentialities of which arouse both fervent hopes and gravest fears. The most ardent desire in the hearts of men is permanent peace and security while suspicion, distrust, and misunderstandings prevail in all parts of the world. These in brief are some of the abnormal conditions and difficult problems that confront you as you go forth to fill your respective places in the present day world. This situation presents a challenge to be met with confidence and determination rather than dis- couragement or dispair. It will require sound judgments arrived at through clear, honest, and unselfish thinking. You now have an educational foundation upon which to build these powers of thought and judgment. Your role is not only to exercise these powers in your own right but to also aid in clearing confusion from the minds of others less fortunate than you in their opportunities and abilities to become enlightened. I congratulate you all and wish you the fullest rneasure of success and happiness. Harry C. Hutchison Counselor-Coordinator South Vocational High School C129
