2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Since the war began, schools such as T.C.S. have come to play an even more important role than they did before. To many boys who have been forced to leave Nazi- threatened territory they have been homes for three or four years. To all they have been places where mind, body and spirit could be developed in an atmosphere of security. Security!-Freedom from fearg what a rare thing this is in the year 1943. Let us stop for a moment to consider the price being paid for this security. It is far too great to be reckoned in dollars and cents, but can only be measured in broken hearts and human suffering. While this terrible price is being paid by people the world over, is nothing expected of us who are being given the opportunity to live under normal conditions? Of course something is required of us, and it is the purpose of a school in wartime that midst the predominant chaos and confusion of the world we should take full advantage of this security and develop as much as possible. This done, we may play our full part in the building of a better, more Christian world-the only monument worthy of those Who died for their ideals. z'-Q: :Q 'r S :Q 'c SE This year the School has the largest enrolment in its history with two hundred and sixty-three boys in atten- dance, one hundred and ninety in the Senior School, and seventy-three in the Junior. To the many new boys we extend a hearty welcome. , To make room for such numbers the cottage below the orchard has been completely rebuilt for twelve boys and a Master, and the top fioor of the Lodge has been con- verted into a dormitory. Although the large School is-a strain on living conditions, it offers a broader scope for our various activities. We are now passing through a dangerous period, for following our outstanding successes of last year we might easily be content to rest on our laurels, and so slip behind. Let us watch for any such inclination and make our motto for the year Progrediemur . -J-B-S-S

The Record is published six time: a year, in lbe montbs of October, December, February, April, fune and August. EDITORIALS September 15, 1943:-Once more T.C.S. opens its doors to a large number of boys gathered from all over the Western Hemisphere, and from England, to give them the liberal training and the democratic education which our enemies have for ive years tried to destroy--in vain. During the summer, the surrender of Italy, large gains on the Russian front and air activity over Europe have brought victory much nearer. But hand in hand with victory has gone ever greater sacrifice. The losses to our armed forces have, of course, been higher than in previous years, and, before the Armistice is signed, they will be yet higher. Bloodshed, violence and destruction are still the order of the day.
