we treasure: justice, loyalty, truth and duty. Knowledge, particularly that which is learned while you are here, is the very bulwark of your inner defences. It is the sure base for speculation, and the very component which will give your life greater dimensions as you grow older. With con- tinuing education you may develop ideals, build a strong set of values, acquire more knowledge of what is beautiful, and enhance your life with experiences of adventure. Your goal for the future should be the greatest develop- ment of your highest powers in education and the arts. Increased perspectiveness will precipitate growth in intellect- ual, moral and religious awareness. It was Seneca, the tutor of Nero, who wrote As long as you live, keep learning how to live. The best wishes of our Faculty and Staff go to those of you who are graduating from Ontario Ladies ' College. We all hope that you will never forget your Alma IVlater. Reginald C. Davis The Principal ' s Message CONTINUING EDUCATION Ontario Ladies ' College is an excellent environment for learning. It is the hope of the Faculty that none of our grad- uates will consider that at this point in their educational careers they can say That ' s it; I am educated. A Graduation Diploma is not a fait accompli, but may be looked upon as the opening of a door to the future. Education is a lifelong process. Each day, with its new requirements, demands an adequate preparation to meet the growing needs of this changing world. Continuing education is the only answer which will keep your perceptions sharp and enable you to re -evaluate your concepts and ideals in terms of constantly modified surroundings. Many problems in the world today are due to confusion and ignorance. Many people have become literate, but they have ceased learning too early in life, and their funds of know- ledge have become bankrupt. Dogmatism, intolerance and smugness have replaced a creative perspective with the things 4
The Dean ' s Message Graduation is a time for looking ahead to new places, new faces, to a whole new life. It is also a time for looking back; back to the time this school meant new places and new faces. Remember the loneliness of those first few days? Sharing a room with a stranger, the confusion of time tables and room location - getting lost on the way to Chapel - the dining room, so very different from home - ' Push ' - a strange word for a bedtime snack - uniforms in place of jeans. Why did I ever come here? Now you are leaving what has become so familiar for a new life, different yet similar. Life repeats itself. It, too, will have its share of disappointments, frustrations, failures and successes. The years here have helped you to grow and mature in judgments. Each new situation will be met and overcome with past experience to guide your speech and behaviour. Perhaps failure in tests has shown the need for sacrificing an evening of fun to study - not easy but the price of success. Try always to remember the importance of first impres- sions. Your manners, dress and speech will open doors pro- viding the opportunity to prove your worth. Most important of all, be honest, reliable and dependable. As I write this I have mixed feelings. I, too, am leaving O.L.C. for a new life. I take with me many happy memories, as I am sure you will, and some new friends. There is a time for everything and the time is now for us to leave. Never lower your standards. Aim high in the words of Robert Browning: Ah, but a man ' s reach should exceed his grasp, Or what ' s a heaven for. Sarah Murdoch
