Change for the sake of change has been disruptive and destructive, and no benefit to anyone. T. J. Calnan expressed thanks to the students for the gifts, and said he appreciated it, as it carâ€" ried recognition of what he had tried to do. His position as guidâ€" ance counsellor had been rewardâ€" ing to him, because he had tried to help students with their probâ€" lems. He paid tribute to the organiâ€" zational ability of his secretary, and to the coâ€"operation of the administration, both of which had made his job so much easier. One of WCI‘s viceâ€"principals, P.

Do we want to deny our children the privilege that was ours when we went to school? The Christian Bible contains the greatest moral code and the best code of ethics on the self discipline of the human being of any book I know. Let us remember that the early Church and the cradle of Western civilization and the originators of our present education â€"system. In most countries today, the highest centres of secular education were founded by the Christian Church. For example, Oxford and Cambridge in England, and similar schools in Scotâ€" land, Ireland and Wales were founded and nurtured by the Christian Church. When you abolish this tradiâ€" tion, a grave vacuum forms in the mind. with the resulting riots and disorders among stuâ€" dents in every country in Wesâ€" tern civilization. These young people have lost all sense of direction and are floundering in stormy seas of «disorders and strikes or any other excuse to revolt against the approved governâ€" ment.
