The training and directing was under the guidance of the teach- ers, and the managerial duties were assumed by the pupils, thus giving opportunity to the teachers to incul- cate in the young ,minds the basic principle of public responsibility, namely, the effacing of ,personal entity for the common weal, as exemplified by the oath of 'office of every public man: "I do solemnly promise and de- clare that I will truly, faithfully and impartially, etc., etc." Principal G. A. 'Ballantyne .presided. The program opened with the "'March of the Heroes," by the school orches- tra, directed by Mr. Rennie. The scarf dance by pupils Of Miss Hellyer was very effective.
