one morning. These girls, not bearing to part from Milton, had taken up residence there. Cay as the mayor of the town, and Marjorie as the wife of the church organist, and herself the choir leader. The ripples are gone and we realise we have seen a glimpse of each of the Seniors of ' 35, as they may be in the future. BaUJitrtnrg Catherine Robertson Our years at school are Hke a room, filled with many old and beautiful memories, and the long ' surviving traditions of the past. When we first enter into the life of the College, we are bewildered and diiTident. There is a tendency to stand and stare, to shrink from learning the whys and wherefores and to maintain some reserve towards those who are acquainted with school life. Just so, the little boy, in that wonderful preface to Walter de la Mare ' s Come Hither, stood in the strange room of that beautiful mysterious house and gazed about him in pu2;2led astonishment. But when he had visited that room day after day, perused its books, studied its pictures, he became filled with the same thoughts that the owner of that room must have had. His guide introduced him into this new world, she told him that his duty was to keep his senses, heart and courage, and to go where he was called. He learned of life from the presence of the owner ' s mind manifested in the room, and from this communion of spirit, came to a knowledge of his own mind, and at length to the stage of departure from that home of his growth. So when he was ready to take his journey, his guide bade him good-bye, and he set forth with heart and courage. She had told him that sometime he would come to a wall on the way to the place of his hope, and that he must climb over it. So in school, after we have become accustomed to its organization and have spent the years in diligent study, and when our first fear has worn off and acquaintance- ship has ripened into friendship, we feel that now, at the close of the term, we have learned the full meaning of the school ' s inheritance. We leave our kind guides, our Principal and teachers, our friends and companions, and set out with heart and courage. We shall never forget this place of our growth and learning, we hope to be able to climb the walls that may stand in the paths leading to the ends we choose. Our grateful thanks are due to Miss Maxwell, our Honorary President, and Miss B. Maxwell, our class teacher, for constant help and guidance. And to the Junior class whose loyal support and consideration have meant more to us than we can ever express. To all the students we would extend our affectionate good wishes. We hope that from our living here some influence may remain to enrich the inheritance of the students to come. And so we fare forth on our journey.
