Y. C. I. ■91

The Echo Editorial Picture a spiral stairway with its summit hidden in the clouds! It can easily be seen that the builders exerted most effort upon the construction of the lowest step, which is the foundation of the entire structure, and which is entirely responsible for Its stability. Is the picture clear in your mind? Now, let us go on. The first step represents our work m compiling, or rather creating, this volume. Now, this book is not a silly toy, but a real foundation stone. Just leaf over the pages, and you see that herein our business people, artists, humorists, cartoonists, and authors of tomorrow find an opportunity to practise and display their talents, and here they may seek their first encouragement. Because the development of natural talents is really one of the greatest aims of education, this book is every bit as beneficial to the Student Body as any subject in the curriculum; and so it is sincerely hoped that the Student Body of 1926, of 1927, and of many suc- ceeding years may appreciate the advantages and pleasures of having a Year Book, and may continue the work which we have begun. Now stop a minute, and visuahze the stairway from a different angle. Here the cornerstone repre- sents our prep school days, the time when we are building the foundations for our lives. A weary traveller, climbing the steps with difficulty, may he tempted to give up his journey, and consider his effort a failure, but turning to gaze again at the place from which he set out, he recalls the en- thusiasm and eager hopefulness that he entertained at the start of his journey, and he takes heart again. May the Y. C. I. Annual of 1925 always be such an inspiration for all of us! — Edito r-1 x-Ch I E F
