FU' Qi: ills eg gin 67 95 v Salufe fo fhe Class of I940l Q My farewell message is suggesfed by fhe lines of James Russel Lowell: ln life's small fhings be resolufe and greal' To keep fhy muscles frained. Knowesf fhou when fafe Thy measure fakes, or when she'll say fo fheez l find fhee worfhy: do fhis fhing for mel Many are becoming fhe prey of frusfrafion and fufilify. Their mood is pessimisfic, convinced fhal' fhe world has lef fhem down. Whaf, if fhey are righf? When did infidelify iusfify infidelifyg or since when do lwo wrongs make one righf? Canada sfill is 'rhe land of opporfunify. Various and real are fronfiers which beckon. Perhaps if calls for more imaginafion, alerlness, courage and faifh fo see fhese fronfiers foday fhan if did in fhe so-called good old limes . Leaners, driffers, flabby in head and hearl, never did and never will see opporfunify anywhere. Even were a chance fhrusf info fheir hand, fhey could nof measure up, lacking grif and sfamina. You enfer fhe arena of life wifh muscle, mind, and hearf well frained. Commif fo memory 'lhe lines of Lowell and keep fifl The world is nol your oysferq if is your 'rraining quarfers. The sfruggle will challenge all fhaf you have: because of if you will be sfronger. Meficulous affenfion fo fhe liffle fhings, fhe defails, makes for perfecfion. He fhaf is faifhful in fhaf which is leasf is faifhful also in much: and he 'rhaf is uniusf in fhe leasf is uniusf also in much. F. B. CLAUSEN, Presidenf of Waferloo College. To fhe Graduafes of l940: While music has so far received no academic recognifion in our Universify, we feel fhaf fhe inferesl is growing. The Arfisfs' Concerfs, given by Muriel Dickson of fhe Mefro- polifan Opera, and Vronsky and Babin, fhe renowned fwo-piano feam, received added Universify flavour by being held in Convoca- fion Hall rafher fhan in a downfown audiforium. The Orpheus Sociefy acfivifies have affracfed fhe affenfion of addifional sfudenls, and fhe orchesfra guided by Mrs. Zoe Addy-Wafson has faken on new life fhis year. The performance of 'lhe Haydn Creafion which will have faken place by fhe fime 'lhis goes fo prinf will give fhe Glee Club fhe opporfunify of faking parf in a large chorus of a hundred or more in fhe producfion of a musical masferpiece. Some acfivify has also been inaugurafed in fhe maffer of fhe sfudy of fheory and piano playing. May our sfandards be kepf high so fhaf fhe graduafes of Wesfern will evenfually look back on fheir musical acfivifies as giving fhem somefhing of COYTIC. value fo carry wifh fhem lhroughouf fhe years fo HARVEY ROBB, x Musical Direcfor. l
