pleasing duly on behalf the board the staff and the pupils of the school lo extend lo them a most sincere and hearty welcome The movement is not of recent origin lias existed a number of years the urgent need of our limes makes new demands on it for activity in its sphere of operations object I understand is lo foster a sfifrit of laudable ambition among students to di rect them in the choice of voca tion in life and to encourage them to qualify themselves for the abundance of opportunity that awaits them in every departure of learning In the days gone by students had lo wait until they graduated from high school by junior or senior matricula tion before they came in contact with the specialist of the Uni versity The object of this move ment Is lo reverse lo some extent that order and to bring the spe cialist to our local institutions of learning so that the rank and file of our students instead of the oc casional few would have the fire in their ambition enkindled by the

in every High School boys and girls are filled by talent and ambition by the fact bey arc there for innumerable positions that seek expert Scholarship in every department of scientific thought A great psychologist recently said that average man from Ihc cradle to the grave lived only on the surface that he did not develop onetenth of his natural powers But from our own High School students we expect far higher results We be lieve thai they will be stimulated by Ibe inspiring influence of the cultivated ladies and gentlemen whom they have met at this Con ference that they will lake them for their guides and models aim at lofty ideals in life and culti vate their laleiits lo the highest point of development In the poster competition an nouncing the convention Proctor son of Mr Proc tor of

fascinating and Elevating address by Chancellor of Univer sity Toronto on A Life of Ser vice He told the and girls attending High School that it was time lo begin lo think to get a perspective of life

delight Be wanted the youth to appreciate the higher things of life as Ihey on the threshold of magnificent oppor tunities He advised the boys to rid entirely of vile which are miasmas of life and in
