alized it Is hard to make up one's
mind about education,' when con-
fronted with the luxuries and com-
forts of today's diving, hut then,
is no, easy. road to education. It
means plain, hard work. Without
education no one had va real op-
portunity to make a good living,
and unemployment' figures indi-
eats' that 60 per cent of those
without work at the present time
ire under 29 years .of age,
In discussing the kind of educa-
don which is most desirable, Mr
Wylie suggested that it would de
pond on what the student wanted
from life, 'Some want wealth
fame, publicity, power, position o;
authority, hut he claimed that al
of these Objectives are futile un-
less, the individual is happy and
living a useful life, Happiness is
,,idely interpreted, but in, essence
t means a concern for others, true
ionesty and work that is ehalleng.,
ing. a
Life, he told the student body, is
one -continual examination, and
requires the type of character that
can face up to the daily prob-
lems, It is to these ends, that edu-
cation is necessary. The speaker
said that the youth of today com-
pares favourably With the young
people of any previous period and
n some ways, there is great im-
provement,
In concluding he wished the
students a happy and useful life
and suggested that their school
years will always be reflected in
their daily living.

The valedictorian was Christine
Runstedtler, 'who suggested to the
students still at school that they
'give serious consideration to going
on to higher eduction if at all pos-
sible.
She thanked the teaching staff,
the board and parents,• 'on behalf
of the graduating students, . for !the
time and troUble that hid been de-
voted to the student body, Miss
Runstedtler said that the purpose
of her address was a farewell, and
while the graduates were leaving
the building, they 'bould always
carry memories of the schOol, and
would not leave behind the objec-
tives taught at the institution.
While many students have moved
on into higher education, she felt
that no matter what they did, they
would still be learning as long as
they lived.
,In her remarks to the students
.still at the high school, she said
that university offers a well-round-
ed program for the talents of any
student. She stressed the import-
ance of the opportunity which is
afforded those who go .to univer-
ity, to meet students from many
countrieS, and said it was one way
'thatibetter, world-wide understand-
ing ,could he built, In -chasing the
,valedieterian-outlineWniany- of the
courses offered by the, universities
which she said would 'broaden the
viewpoint and , make 'it easier to
face the .Worid. She said her gen-
eration was going to :be faced with
serious 'problems and that it must
be prepared to fight with all pos-
sible resources and talents in order
that a free world would be passed
on to the fufure generations.
Miss Christine Runstedtler and
Miss Irene , Saint, graduates of
WDHS were awarded Dominion-
Provincial Bursaries. Miss Run-
stedtler's was for $500.00 and Miss
Saint's for $250.00:
