esteem and good will. We must, then, hold our friends in high estimation and bear them always good will. What opportunities have been offered us in the year past! Here we live in closest contact with our fellow students, and friendships made here will be those of a lifetime. How we should treasure this precious thing called ' ' friendship! And if we are true friends we will attempt to bring out in our friends their very best qualities. If we are all we should be, it will be easier for our friends, simply because they are our friends, to do the right and just thing in moments of indecision. At our Bac- calaureate service Rev. Mr. Russell pointed out the important part one ' s friends play in one ' s life. He pointed out that even our Saviour sought the companionship of friends. And now just at this particular time we seem to feel our friendships stronger. It is most certainly hard to say good-bye to our many friends after such a happy year spent together within the walls of dear O.L.C. As the years glide on perhaps these friendships will be made even stronger, as we follow our friends into the four corners of the earth. In any case, I feel sure that nothing can take the place of our friendships made here this year. Jean Blow. Page Seventeen

As our school year draws to a close, there are many varied and conflicting thoughts in our minds. For those of us who are going out to begin the actualities of life, either in the field of industry or the pursuit of still higher knowledge, there is a voice of sadness, and a tear, at parting, but the future appears to us in a roseate halo of hopeful dreams and anticipated success. Our Senior Class in this year at O.L.C. have maintained themselves with fitting dignity, and are ready, educationally and spiritually, to answer whatever problems may come their way. We have had great honor come to the class in various express -ons — standing high in athletic prowess, dramatic ability, scientific knowl- edge, and above all, we supplied fr om our ranks the embodiment of essence of womanly character for the general tribute of our schoolfellows. Our achievements, varied as they are, will serve as a prod, or inspiration, as the case may be, for those who will come to take our place next year. We hope that this oncoming class will use our example as a stepping stone to great success and still higher achievement. There are many more things to find out, new worlds of science and wisdom to discover and explore; there are always new decisions to be made, and a need for fresh determination to win honor. May the life of all who come to our Alma Mater for knowledge and her kindly influence, be strong in heart, mind and body to carry on her splendid traditions and to answer the challenge of her noble spirit, through the years ahead. And softly thro ' a vineus mist My college friendships glimmer. -Tennyson. How much friendship means to the girls who have spent the past year at O. L. C! Each girl may have her own opinion of just exactly what friendship does mean. Our dictionary, however, tells us that friendship is the affection arising from mutual Page Sixteen
