A letter from Mrs. Wilma E. Amos speaking of former students says: I suppose that if all the kinds of work and all the places we ' ve all been were all added ip, they would represent all vocations and all the countries in the world, for there must ae a very great number of us. And what a lot of great events have taken place since 1913, when the Collegiate was opened. Some of the older ex-students saw and took part in two wars, many of us have become parents, some grandparents, some have acquired fame and fortune, some have learned the peace and contentment of a quiet home and family life, in¬ cluding the great joy of seeing a line full of clean clothes blowing on the line, or seeing the family coming home from school and work. I sincerely hope that most of us have acquired wisdom to mix with the knowledge we got at school, wisdom which can only come from coping with the vicissitues of life in its various forms. It is likely that we have all had a share of joy and sorrow, tragedy and triumph, disaster and victory. I know that if all the other students and ex-students got as much out of their days at W. C. I. as I did, their lives have been more adaptable to whatever upheaval might have come their way. Weyburn Cadet Band (1942) In Oct. 1952 at the Commencement exercises Mrs. Sadie McGillivray Bowerman pre¬ sented to Mrs. J. E. McGillivray, Chairman of the Collegiate board, two silver tea services nth two trays and an extra coffee pot on behalf of the Alumni starting 1913. A dollar and a ialf was collected from each family interested, or fifty cents per student. Those acting n this committee in gathering the money and names were Alice McGowan Onstad, Bessie iullis Butters, Myrtle Scott Blow and Isabel Murray, along with Mrs. Bowerman. This feilver service has proven very useful at numerous functions and necessitates less borrow¬ ing on many occasions. Mrs. J.E. McGillivray W. C. I. Orchestra 1958
