So, we take our leave of the Wallaceburg District High School as many others have done and many more will. We shall always carry with us the pleas- ant memories of our sojourn here and all the dear associations connected with it. We leave to face a world which may not be as friendly as we have found this place to be, but with the weapons we have been given here, we fearlessly fling our challenge to that world, take up our banner of idealism, and march on to our destiny.
