VALEDICTORY ADDRESS
The following is the Valedictory ad-
dress delivered by Jim ,Hall at the
Wingliam High School Commence-
ment recently.
'Staff and students of Winghanv
High School, ladies and gentlemen,
I wish to expreas my feeling of priv-
ilege at being able to address you to-
night as the representative of the &rad-
uating class of 1948.
To you good people of Wingham
High School District I say that your
school is a fine school. Perhaps we
who have just completed our five year
term within her walls feel this more
strongly than anyone else.
It is your school as well as ours.
It is your scheol to support, to use,'
and with it should lie your interest.
The pupils of today are the citizens
of tomorrow, and if we wish a strong
country in the future, we must train
the pupils to strong citizenship. Wing-
ham High School is playing her part
in this task. Under the competent
instruction of her teachers her stud-
ents are gaining not only an educa-
tion, but a way of life, and from her
portals is emerging a constant stream
of students who will carry this better
way of life throughout the world.
This standard must be maintained,
and you with us must share the re-
sponsibility. How much do you know
of the work of the your school? Do
you know that one-third of all the
students in last year's grade thirteen
is at university,,that another two-fifths
are furthering their education at other
schools, and that all the remaining
graduates both of Upper School', and
Commercial are employed by commer-
cial firms?
This is a record of which you can
be proud., It is proof that your school
is doing a good job of educating the
citizens of tomorrow,
,To the students of Wingham High
School, a word of advice, When you
have completed your High School ed-
ucation you will look back upon your
High School days as some of the hap-
piest in your life. Make the most of
them! Use all your school activities
to their greatest advantage. They were
made for you.
Ask for and accept the advice of
your teachers, They are there to help
you, and from their own experience
will tender helpful counsel to any and
alk, of you.
To all those who have helped us in
our High School career we say thank
you. To the staff, who have given
energy, time, and patience to our petty
problems; to Mr. Bower, without
war

Hail, Farewell! from thee we part,
With knowledge gained our future fair-
Thy memory ever' in our heart ,
Will nurture hope, defeat despair, ,
To seek the truth from thee we've
learned,
To follow right in all our ways,
To strive for honour rightly earned,
And give our best to passing days.
We thank thee in our parting rhyme,
Thy help to use but time can tell,
Our wards endure fro mancient time,.

whom the school could not be the
same, either physically or spiritually;
to the School Board, who have given
thoughtful consideration to the mater-
ial problems of the school; ,to the citi-
zens, who have supported the school;
to the graduates of 'preceding 'years,
who have given us our tradition—
Thank you, y,put work is appreciated.
At last the time has, come when the
members of our class must part.
Therefore, I ask yOur pardon if for a
moment I reminisce over our school
Remember Miss MacGregor's kind-
ly help in getting us adjusted to High
Schogl life; Mr. Madill taught Geom-
etry by jokes in, Grade X; remember
the class party with Miss Boe in third
form; did Hannibal ever get his raft
of elephants across the river in Grade
XII; remember the carol singing at
assembly before Christmas; I wonder
if 'George Underwood's old Overland
is still running?
But enough of this., I am sure that
on each of our hearts is engraved the
memory of a grand comradeship which
has arisen from five years of happy
fellowship.'
And so we bid farewell to our
