The Principal ' s Message The private school of today must do more than teach knowledge, skills and attitude. It must inculcate qualities of living which exemplify the best in fields of human endeavour. Our graduates must be taught that the motto of the Ontario Ladies ' College - Truth, Virtue and Loveliness is a code for living, not only confined within the enormous walls of this ivy-covered institution, but a code which will give depth and perspective to every- day living in the world of today. What are your ultimate goals? Are freedom, self respect, a sense of meaning in life, respect from others, wisdom, survival, fellowship, among them? Have you determined what your values should be, and more significantly, have you learned to live with these values? We all need time to reflect on value judgments, particularlv before we come up with the answers. It is sometimes regrettable the way in which students make judgments about certain values that have no basis in fact, but which should be rejected, modified, or just- ified in the light of other values they are sure about. Taking sufficient time for reflection should sensitize the students ' sensibilities and help them build up a sound set of values that they may bring to their reflections on problems outside the school. There is also an important place for the influence of intuition, feelings, and conscience in guiding people towards sound values. Students have a great deal to learn from their teach- ers. A considerable task in value education is one which helps them overcom.e prejudice against teacher advice and example, prejudice that is largely due to adverse viewpoints of their peers with regard to any show of authority. At the Ontario Ladies ' College, a sense of meaning in life is a fundamental human value, and as it is bound up with a Christian perspective, it is an ultimate life goal. We hope that the principles of Christian ethics will be followed by the students as their guide to develop- ing sound moral and value judgments.

The Dean ' s Message My first year at O.L.C. is nearly over! How quickly time flies and how much truth there is in the popular sayin g: ' ' It ' s later than you think, It seems like yesterday that I was looking forward with anticipation to a new position with all its unknowns to conquer. The year has been one of challenges, satisfactions, failures, successes and new friends. Your year has probably been much the same; anger and frustration at a detention for misbehaving (served grudgingly but knowing deep-down it was deserved), a phone call from a new boyfriend asking for a date- or a call from home when you thought no one cared, high marks achieved in an examination, bells, push, beds, permission slips, house points, Study Hall, and endless round of rules all planned to help you develop and mature to accept new freedoms and responsibilities. What have you gained during your years at O.L.C? I hope you have taken advantage of your many opportunities. The chance to mingle and develop friendships with students from beyond our shores is to be envied. Nearby Toronto offers music, art, theatre, museums and shopping, yet we are situated in an area of clean fresh air. How can we be so fortunate? You didn ' t enjoy your year? What did you contribute ? Get involved! Do something constructive! Participate! Have a goal for each day, each week, to form good personal work habits, to read something worthwhile, to exercise body and mind, to help someone in need. You decide, then do it. You have a life to live; live it to the full. Each decision, each action you make, makes or unmakes you. Think on these words of Charles Reade: We sow our thoughts and we reap our actions; We sow our actions, and we reap our habits; We sow our habits, and we reap our characters; We sow our characters, and reap our destiny. Your future is what you make it today. Best wishes for success
