The Headmaster thanked Col. and Mrs. Osborne on behalf of the School for their great generosity in making such a splendid gift, and voiced the pleasure felt by all that they were present to perform the opening in person. Col. Osborne expressed the view that the most im- portant things in the world were a sound mind and a healthy body and hoped We would derive a great deal of pleasure from the court. The ribbon which supported the net was then untied by Mrs. Osborne and the new court was officially declared open.

8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORJD The profession of peace, made by four of the great nations of Europe when they were within a few hours of tearing each other to pieces, should have an almost limit- less effect for good on the rest of the world. If these nations, bristling with death-dealing arms of all kinds, can recognize the tragic folly of it all, surely other nations will do likewise and realize that peace hath her victories far more renowned than war. Example is usually more effective than words, every day of our lives we are in some way being an example to some one else. Unconsciously you are exercising an in- fluence for good or an influence for evil. Good has won out in the affairs of nations because it had won out in the hearts of many of those who go to make up the na- tions, because they realized the simple truth of Jesus' words: Seek ye first the Kingdom of God, the Kingdom of Good, and all things will be added unto you . There is another of Jesus' sayings, unfortunately, 1 think, often linked in our minds with the giving of money, when really it means much more than that. Considering the part one man has played in saving the World from horror, these words of Jesus seem to have a special mean- ing and significance: Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Peace on earth, good-will to men has a truer ring to it to-day than yesterday, may we, by our works, make a real contribution towards the brotherhood of man.
