Dear folks from Hib- bert's hallowed homes who ask of how the old school stands, and Pictured in each passive face are traces left from happy youth who held up high the old school's rules, that torch of friendship, love and truth, "Old Friend". Montrea7, Que.-"I would be neglecting a very. important duty were I not to write and thank you for the invitation to attend the 50th anniversary of the school. Fifty years ago we could say in today's boyhood- we have our future leaders and how well or how poorly we are performing our task depends to a large ex- tent on the training we received at that time from our parents 'and our teachers. In these days of our busy busi- ness life we sometimes forget that -we were boys and trouble- some ones but in most instances we had a good home, a home where we received a guiding hand and the sound advice of a father and a mother. The youths or today differ little from those of 50 years ago. They have more temptations and dangerous haz- ards to contend with .but the vast majority of them are law- abiding citizens, interested in do- ing their duty to God and their country. Unfortunately I will be unable to attend this event, but this note would be incomplete without 're- ference to the first teacher of the school, Miss B. O'Connor. Her kind, sympathetic, smiling coun- tenance and impartial mind en- deared her to all. It is rarely that we find one so self-sacrificing and interested in the welfare of all, Many of those who attended when it first opened have been called by death. Let our constant, fervent prayer be, "When the lessons of life are over, And God says our school is dis- missed, May we answer the roll call in heaven And none of our number be missed. Jack IP, Dalton. Edmonton - Dour Mrs. Malady and mem- bers of Jubilee Committee, I re- gret to inform you I shall not be with you on the 28th, but will be there in spirit and prayer. The crowning glory for all those who serve the Master loy- ally is perfect peace and happi- ness for now and all the years to be; While richest gifts forever bless the many golden deeds you've done, may happy memor- ies make this day for you - a, truly Golden One. The above words fittingly ex- press my sentiments to my dear "Alma Mater", who has during the past fifty years sent out many priests, nuns and promin- ent citizens who today are proud to say, "We attended S.S.S.
