End of Schoo! Days To a number of girls this occasion marks the end. of school days. 1 hope, however, that they will keep touch with the school, Before they leave I wish to congratulate Form Vi girls, Twenty-one girls received the Cambridge School certificate—this year, nine of them with London Matriculation Exemption. Twelve of them remained in school and have given excellent service as protects. Tome personally they have given assistance in countless ways, helping to make things run smoothly on aimeult days.
[wish to congratulate them also on the magazine they produced a few weeks ago. In this work they showed considerable independence of thought fand action, and had less active assist~ ance from me than any previous committee. I am convinced that they have earned at least some of the lessons we try to give in addition to those from text books, {st 19 Form—Maple Barden, 2ha la Formeconstance.oberts, Sid im Form~-aoan Vein 4 Foast 1V.
