OTTAWA NORMAL SCHOOL YEAR BOOK me 1928 Valedictory Over, the ten short months! and unknown powers Call to ns, going forth upon our way Oh, turn we and look bark upon the towers That rose above oar lives and cheered the day. LAS ! how rapidly time's hour glass shifts and todays pass on to yesterdays while tomorrows dawn upon the horizon. The swiftly gliding days have lengthened into months and now we find ourselves at the end of the Normal School term. Long have we looked fonvard to this beginning of our life's work-toward it all the efforts of our school years have been directed. Yet as we leave our school days behind us we must strike that sad note.- Farenell . Although we are anxious to take our place in life, our joy is tinged with regret. For soon friendship's ties must be severed and happy associations become a memory of the past. Yet we must not linger in this strain, life beckons us on, we have much to do if we would prove ourselves worthy of our Alma Mater. This year has been the refining process through which we must pass if we are to enter our pro- fession fully equipped. On this year depends the success of our future. During the months of training, the impor- tance of the work in hand is stressed to such an extent that the student may forget that, after all, a training course at Normal is only a means to an end. lt is merely a preparation for the battle-the real struggle begins when school days end. ln the battle of life the school teacher will be expected to play a leading part. His fellow citizens will look up to him as a leader in the community activities demanded by good citizenship. He will be called upon when an educational movement is under consideration. The community will expect him to prove the benefits of his training in intellectual, religious and social life. His success will be determined not by the honours secured on his examinations but by the degree to which he measures up as a leader in the various phases of community life. In parting we remember our teachers. Only when we have passed beyond our daily contact with them shall we fully appreciate all that their encouragement, patience and sympathy have meant to us. To them we express our gratitude for their efforts to fit us for the worthy mission we have chosen in life. How happy has been our sojourn at the O.N.S. VVe have lived together as a happy family. W'e have formed bonds of friendship which neither time nor distance can sever. We have worked together towards a common goal and now it is almost reached. In our struggle towards this objective the O.N.S., our Alma Mater, has been a never-failing guide, and it is with mingled feelings of regret and expectancy that we take leave of her. In a short time we shall be scattered, but we shall be unified at least by happy memories of pleasant hours spent at the O.N.S. So, Alma Mater, we bid thee farewell, we accept the challenge to be worthy of your tradi- tions and we enter our profession unafraid because we know that we are fitted for our work. Be ever so careful, O hand, VVr'ite thou with a sanctified pen,' Thy story shall live in the land For years fin the doings of men. ANNA EASTON 'NP April Sing a song of April, Bursts of sunshine scatter A bank of violets blue, The threatening clouds astray, From under snowy blanket, Awaking earth to laughter Spring up to welcome you. In good old Nature's way. Raindrops slyly hasten The blades of verdant green: And snow doth swiftly vanish Into an April dream. l LILLIAN M. SToNEss, BV vote ofthe students, Miss Anna Easton was rhosen to write the Valedictory for the Year Book, and Mr. Clijord Hill to deliver a farewell address at the last soria! gathering on June 14. 341

Death at any' time brings sadness and sorrow in its train but there is something peculiarly shocking about sudden death. just a week prey iously Madelon bade us a happy farewell as she left to spend the week-end at home.

Course for Teachers 'i gf . 5: Exz'ra-lbfuml and Szmzmcr Sclzool Study O-DAY as never before are the more progressive teachers realizing that higher academic standing is necessary for those who intend making teaching a life profession. To-day as never before are universities endeavouring to assist teachers to this higher status. Queen's at Kingston has been the pioneer in Canada in this work, and her extra-mural andsum- mer school courses have been the means of lifting teachers in every province of the Dominion to a position of greater responsibility and service. Among the graduating class at every Con- vocation appear the names of many teachers to whom the Bachelors Degree would have been a vain hope had it not been for Queen's Summer School and Extension Department. If you hope to attain to a prominent place in the educational system of your province, you will iind that the completion of a university course is necessary to advancement. If you are interested, then, in improving yourself, if you want your spare hours to count for something, Queen's can help you.
