Principal 's Message It is still eight years .short of the century since Canada, the nation, ufas founded. Many Canadfians, still active, were born before the first transconftinental train, bound for the enzrpty unorganlzed territories of the West, left Montreal over the neu! Canadian Pac'if?'c Ratluvay. This ufeek, after so little time, uve zratch ships from the four seas enter our inland harbours through the great Canadian-lruz'lt St. Lawrence Seaway, seeking trade. Who can fail to 'marvel at the material progress and nzaturlty of our young country? But who, also, can fail to abhor the social inrmraturity through u'h'ich, so often, incliridfual u'orth is nzeasured in terms of uvhat a proutncial neufspaper descrfilved this nzorning as success symbols - in this case long and glossy automolriles. I hope that you haue learned at Westdale to appreciate and to strive for progress and to measure the worth of your fellows lay characterfistfzfcs unarssoclatecl urith apparent 'rnalterial possessions. It is a prifufilege and a pleasure to commend the editor and the staff of Le Raconteur and to u'rz'sh everyone in the school con- tinuing success and satisfaction. 9
