BLUE AND WHITE D URING these dark days of war, changes have been wrought in everything, and this school is no exception. It has meant the keenly felt loss of Mr. O’Brien, Mr. White, and most recenty Mr. Allison. Another blow ' to Walkerville C. I. has been dealt in the temporary loss of Mr. McNaughton. But so ably has Mr. Ball taken over, that few’ must realize how difficult Mr. Ball’s task has been. To the boys, the w r ar has meant an opportunity to serve their country in some branch of the armed forces. We are proud of them, and are sure that they will also give Canada cause to be proud of them. It is unfortunate, how ' ever, that many more boys leave school for this reason, without finishing their education, forgetting that, as future cvilians after the war, they will be called upon to create a world which is not ruled by greed, hate and jealousy. To the girls, the call to service also sounds. Although their tasks are less spectacular, they are equally important. They must work behind the scenes provid¬ ing for those in the front lines. Many students keep their knitting needles clicking and their needles flying to provide comforts for those in need. They must also fit themselves to occupy increasingly important places in the sphere of civilian life, filling up the gaps left by absent men. A worthy challenge has been put forth to the people of Canada! On how they respond depends the life of the next generation. Let every student prepare himself well during his school days to do his part, in order that the democratic, humanitarian way of life may emerge from this trial, stronger and more secure.

Acknowledgements The staff of the Blue and White wish to express their appreciation to all those who contrbuted to the maga¬ zine. To Mr. Ball we are grateful for his patience and helpfulness in every de¬ partment. Our difficulties have been im¬ measurably lessened, too, by the inex¬ haustible patience of Mr. Fred and Mr. Ernest Creed. Miss Dickey, Mr. Malania, Miss Ev¬ ans, Miss Post and Miss McLaren spent many evenings criticizing material. Miss Auld’s gracious assistance was of great value to the art department. We thank those English teachers who contributed class periods in order that the students might write articles. To Bob McDonald, Jack Panabaker and John Kerr, we owe many excellent pictures. We sincerely appreciate the efforts of those girls who spent many hours typing the material. We owe much to our energetic class representatives who spurred their class¬ mates to greater efforts. It has been a pleasure to work with such a co-operative staff and to have such a responsive student body. —Editor, Page Ten
