Betty Bradburn, Valedictory Address BETH JOHNSTON Ontario Scholar Mr. Paisley, Mr. Kyte, teachers, parents, fellow grad- uates and students -- The grad- uation exercises are always an important yearly event for everyone in the community; this is readily apparent from the shining faces in the front rows right back to. those people who are willing to stand in order to be present | this evening. But each year, this programme has a special significance to those for whom it is really a Commencement. Tonight symbolically marks] #2: for us the end of one period of our lives and it is with mixed emotions that we remember those years as well as look forward expectantly to new experiences and oblig- ations. Our first impulse is to look back and we see a montage of special moments - the triumph of recapturing the Bi-School Track and Field Trophy, our feeling of pride and accomp- lishment in our yearbook, and the good-natured rivalry and sense of competition among the "house" groups (although to have listened to -us some- times one might think the good nature was wearing a little thin), . Tonight the best memories are the ones we graduates share together, Now that we are going our separate ways we look back to those wild and wonderful spares; we remember those magical people who could make chalk brushes move myster- iously - along the trays, and who could make crickets jump down from the light fixtures. And there were those above students: Front row: Nadia Margaret Carnaghan, Ronalc Beth Johnston congratulated original answer to today's problem of student power. A familiar atmosphere, unity of: spirit throughout the student' body and a trusting and help- ful staff form a situation almost unique among modern day schools. And if you doubt that it pays off you have never been to a CHS drama night. For these opportunities we thank the Cartwright Board of Education. We realize the difficulties and work that must be involved in maintaining the school. Whatéver may happen in the future, we want to assure you that as far as .we are . concerned, it has-not been in vain. To our parents thanks are also due - probably long over- due. We have accepted as our birthright our homes and security, the support and guid- ancé of our parents and the pleasures and privileges of our time,.. We have even been known to complain bitterly when we were expected to meet certain obligations in return. However being parents you understood us better than we understood oursleves. _ Please accept our thanks and we ask you to continue to stand behind us. Because for every end there is a beginning and if tonight closes one chapter of our lives another is already open- ing. Working in the business world, College or to university we are meeting new and interesting people, finding even greater opportunities to ~make our own 'decisions and getting a better look at the world we live. in and which one day will be ours, So tonight our emotions are ones of pleasant nostalgia for the past, gratitude to our parents and teachers and ant- icipation for the future as we go forward armed with the astra" Commencement During Exercises at Cartwright High School, Saturday night, Bill Thompson, president of the Students' Council, announced | that the Council was going to sponsor a memorial trophy in memory of 'their. former Vice - President and beloved classmate of all CHS students - the late Bob McLaughlin. This trophy will be awarded in succeeding years at the Com- mencement to the student displaying a high degree of good sportsmanship, cooperat- ion and integrity for these.are the qualities which Bob 'man- ifested so well and for which he will be long remembered. ann SH encouraging souls who kept telling us we would do well on a test - especially when it was one they didn't have to write. Of course. our backward glances also include our teach- ers - inevitably, first and fore: most we remember the work they gave us to do, but we also remember the interest they inspired and the good times we had in many of their classes. We appreciate the extra efforts they made on our behalf and the interest they showed in us. Human as we are, we haven't always admitted this even to ourselves but we wish to express our thanks to all our. teachers throughout the years - those here tonight as well as those absent in body if not in spirit. Tonight we are also saying goodbye to Cartwright High School itself. As we graduate and enter a larger sphere of life we realize how fortunate we have been in being a part of this school with its advant- 'ages of small classes and a fine rapport between students and Place Well At Royal Fair The top .price of $7,000 was paid for Briarwood Me- lissa by F.
