I would like first to offer my warmest congratulations and good wishes to you as you approach the closing of the third year of our school. During the past year it has been necessary to add materially to the size of the building,' and we now have one of the largest and most beautiful schools in the Province.
For the past few years much has been said and written about the crisis in education. First we were concerned about providing buildings and equipment. We now think of the ouality of the work we are doing.
A few weeks ago there was held at the City of Ottawa a conference on education for the purpose of examining the whole field of education. Delegates attended from all the Provinces of Canada, between SCO and 900 in all.
The general feeling of the conference was that the standard of excellence which could be achieved by our young people depended largely upon the co-operation between the young people and the teaching profession.
Without enthusiastic and devoted teachers we cannot have a successful school. There was a strong current of thought through the conference that the importance of the teachers' work was not sufficiently recognized.
We believe that we have in the Gilbert Faterson School an unusually fine staff of teachers, and that we should continue to give to them in increasing measure our support and co-operation.
A most interesting speaker who spoke to the conference was Sir Ronald Gould, the head of the teachers' organization in the British Isles. He directed attention to the organization of the early Christian Church, and showed the important place that was occupied by the teacher. He quoted from one of the letters ’written by Saint Paul to the people of Corinth as follows:
"And God has appointed in the church, first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then workers of miracles, then healers, helpers, administrators, speakers in various kinds of tongues."
Next to the great spiritual leaders of the Church came the teachers. They took precedence ovecr the engineers, architects, doctors, nurses. It ’would arpear that the teacher was more important than the Superintendent, who administered the school organization.
It seems to me that young people of today have a marvellous opportunity to fit themselves to make their finest contribution to society when they grow up. It was evident from the statements of industrial leaders that they are prepared to advance in the way of scholarships and bursaries vast sums of money to enable our young people to become well oualified by attending institutions of higher learning. I believe the time is at hand when no girl or boy needs to be without a splendid education if she or he is willing to make a sacrifice in effort.
Sincerely
GILBERT PATERSONTo The Student Body Of 1937 - 1938

Nov; that another school year is drawing to a close, we who are engaged in the business of education are entering and demanding the arduous task of "taking stock" in order that we may bring together certain information and summarize our progress for the school year 1957-1958.
It has been said that Socrates differed from other men in that he pursued education where others proclaimed it. Some proclaim freedom, others pursue it, some proclaim "the state owes me an education - a living", while others pursue an education and thereby a living.
We as individuals might well devote some time to taking stock of ourselves as we finish this school year: it is only thus that we may be in a position to attempt to achieve the aims and objectives of what we pursue in our education. We must ever strive to Improve upon what has been done if we hope to accomplish that for which we have the yearning and the ability.
Looking back, doubtless, there are certain things which we did or neglected to do during the past year which detracted from our sense of personal satisfaction. These thoughtless errors of the past year may well direct our attention and our desire for improvement in the coming year.
Every person has a weak side. A wise person, however, knows where that weakness lies, and will be sure to keep a double guard there.
"Books are compasses and telescopes and sextants and charts which others have prepared to help us navigate the dangerous seas of human life."
"A good person will find there is goodness in the world; an honest person will find there is honesty in the world; a person of principle will find principle and integrety in the minds of others."
Each of us has in his heart a little thing called conscience, by which we test each thought and word and deed, and determine whether it is true or false.

You are richer now than you were last September if you have made new friends, if you have made stepping stones of your stumbling blocks, if you have learned to count out those things which really count, if you have become a little more blind to the faults of your friends and foes, and if you have accomplished to your satisfaction that which you set out to do last September.

Remember that if the opportunities for great deeds should never come your way the opportunity for good deeds is renewed everyday. The thing for us is goodness, not glory.
"Since what we choose is what we are and what we love
we yet shall be."

The council feels that the activities for the school year 1957-58 have been extremely successful.
During the year many students took part in three successful skating parties
Last fall we had a Welcome Homs Dance inviting the last year's graduating class as our honoured guests. We held three other successful dances.
These were the Christmas Dance, the Vale-'.'ine Dance and the May Dance.
The highlight of our May Dance was the crowning of a May King and Queen and two princes and princesses.
We conducted again for the third consecutive year a Turkey Raffle which we profited by with a substantial sum of money. Two major purchases of the Students' Union was that of a Tape Recorder and a C-estetner.

We held a series of Lits, the Grade Seven Spelling Bee, Grade Eight Quizz Contest and the Grade Nine Interhouse Debate, which were all successful.

The executive and members of the Gilbert Paterson Home and School Association feel that the 1957-58 season has been one of accomplishment and success. Briefly, here are some of the notable events of the year.
The association instituted the School Patrol; clearly marked school zones, and the Attendance Banner. We have purchased six dozen cups and saucers (to complete the dinner set started last year); as well as sport sv/eaters for school use. During the year we have sponsored scholarships; delegates to both the Banff Workshop and the Annual Convention; the water colour art display belonging to Mr. and Mrs.
Baron of Calgary; the Annual Graduation Banouet; and the Amateur Night Baking Contest and Shop Display. V/e contributed to the Kirby Scholarship fund in February, which is Founder's Month. Our membership has reached a new high of 215 active and enthusiastic supporters. Last, but not least, life membership and plaque were presented to Mr. G.C. Paterson — who has diligently supported our group in all its endeavors.
We would like to express our appreciation to all students, teachers and parents who have helped in any way throughout the past year.

We would like to thank the students heartily for their support to the paper. Without their interest we could not put out a paper. With the new Gestetner Duplicating machine, we are able to reproduce a very fine paper that is much more legible and has a great many cartoon features.
Thanks again for supporting us and an extra thanks for those who worked on the paper.

As you pass through the journey of life you do well to pause at .7,
each station and survey your progress and attempt to peek into the ~
future. Our travel has taken us through the pleasant experiences of 3=
childhood, across the bridge of friendship into early school years Vj
and on to the broad open stretches where you can see so far ahead.
True, there are hills and dales, but we stand at a vantage point .=?
where our vision is not obscured. Very soon we must leave that pinnacle
and start our adventure through the future carefully completing our education, then selecting the path which looks most promising to 7.
lead us through the heavier responsibilities of earning our living §
and building our homes. Every good experience that we have had and ~
will have v/ill add to the smooth passage along that path. 7l
We expect there will be pitfalls to avoid, hills to climb and 7
rivers to cross. Strength comes from adversity. May we have the iJ
wisdom to recognize adversity as such and overcome it and not be de- ~
ceived by the idea that these pitfalls are there to obstruct us and defeat us.
C-ilbert Paterson Junior High. We came to you when you were very young and when we were very young. We are the first class of graduates to spend three full years within your walls. You have made us very proud. You took your place amongst the schools with dignity; you excelled in all you undertook; and most of all you found a place for yourself in our hearts. Parting is not easy but with us we take a memory of evenings of entertainment, days of accomplishment, and friends. When we face our pitfalls, our rivers and our hills, our knowledge of how to overcome them will be greater because of what we learned here.
Foremost among the friends we treasure from our visit here are those who gave of their energies, their knowledge and their learning, their hours of patience and understanding - CXir Teachers. Who knows, among our numbers may be a premier or a president or a great humanitarian, because of the seeds of thought that some wise teacher planted in fertile minds. Their guiding hand will stay our headstrong plunging when heading up wrong paths and lead us gently back to reality and set us in the way that we should go.

Graduating class, your work has been hard; but nothing worth having comes without effort. To compensate for the hours of intense study, the concentrated efforts over books and handiwork come the memories of dances at the school, the skating parties, the games we won and almost won, and our first dates. Oh yes, between the hills are valleys of joy, which come clearer when you look back upon the meadows of accomplishment.
The future cannot hold us back. Our dreams, our aims, will be accomplished and all because we had the three short full years to set our steps aright. Our heads are held high, our hearts are full of happiness and expectation. As we take our leave, we thank our school, our teachers and our fra ends most sincerely for all they have added to our lives.

aSOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT l ill
This article has been printed in various newspapers, including the Lethbridge Herald, and should give many teenagers food for thought.
"Always we hear the plaintive cry of the teen-agers:
"What can we do....?
"Where can we go....?
"I can make some suggestions. GO HOME l
"Hang storm windows, paint the woodwork. Rake the leaves. Mow the lawn. Shovel the walk. Wash the car. Learn to cook. Scrub some floors. Repair the sink. Build a boat. Get a job.
"Help the minister, the Red Cross, the Salvation Army, Visit the sick. Assist the poor. Study your lessons. And when you are through — and not too tired — read a book.
"Your parents do not owe you entertainment.
"Your village does not owe you recreational facilities.
"The world does not,owe you a living.
"You owe the world something.
"You owe it your time and energy, and your talents so that no one will be at war or in poverty, or sick, or lonely again.
"In plain, simple words: 'GROW UP* quit being a crybaby; get out of your dream world; develop a backbone not a wishbone, and start acting like a man or a lady."
"I'm a parent. I'm tired of nursing, protecting, helping, appealing, begging, excusing, tolerating, denying myself needed comforts for your every whim and fancy, just because your selfish ego instead of common sense dominates your personality, and thinking, and requests."%\

AWHICH ARE YOU
There are two kinds of people on earth today;
Just two kinds of people, no more, I say.
Not the sinner and saint, for it's well understood The good are half bad, and the bad are half good. Not the rich and the poor, for to rate a man’s wealth,
You must first know the state of his conscience and health.
Not the humble and proud, for in life's little span,
Who put on vain airs is not counted a man.
Not the happy and sad, for the swift flying years Bring each man his laughter and each man his tears.
No; the two kinds of people on earth I mean Are the people who lift, and the people who lean. Wherever you go, you will find the earth’s masses Are always divided in just these two classes.
And, oddly enough, you will find too, I ween, There’s always one lifter to twenty who lean.
In which class are you? Are you easing the load Of overtaxed lifters, who toil down the road?
Or are you a leaner, who lets othersshare Your portion of labor, and worry and care?
