THE RECORD u 5 , ' leca ' id no-ne (hut ike, ko-iVib o-(. kunbkine,” The pages which follow record the history of the “Class of ’41” and their companion classes from the first day spent in school in 1929 through the commen¬ cement exercises. They record the trials and tribula¬ tions, successes and failures, and ambitions and aspi¬ rations of the group of young men and women who leave school this year to face the world. But above all, they record twelve of the happiest years in our lives, the memory of which will always serve as a source of inspiration and satisfaction to us. We have appropriately chosen the sun dial as the theme of this year¬ book. The twelve hours on its face correspond to the twelve years we have spent in school. The sun dial records only the hours during the day when the sun is casting its radiance upon the face of the earth. At night it has no value since there is no light. Similarly, the time we have spent in school has been a time of enlightenment. We must not, however, let this stop now. The sun never sets on the realm of education. We must go on gaining knowledge and education, for if this process ceases, we will die intellectually. For a person who is intellectually dead, life holds nothing. As we look back over our years at Wellington, we see a record of time well spent. We see many cheerful, pleasant hours of sunshine and enlightenment which have served to make our lives more complete. Indeed, most clear among our recollection is the sun dial; for us it has served well, marking twelve of the finest years of our lives.
