The function was characterised by the usual spirit of intense enthusiasm, and the male portion of the students, by their lusty College yell, occasional- ly asserted themselves ill no unmis- takable degree. Among tliose on the platform, ill addition to members of the Facility, were the Premier, I-lon. J. A. Matllieson, Ex-Governor D. A. McKinnon, tile Superintendent of Edu- cation. Mr. R. H. Campbell, Judge Stewart,Rev. Dr. Collin. A number oi' excellent addresses were given, and reference was made ill lllost of them to the War ulld the stildeiits appealed to to realize the greatest need of the Empire today and do their duty. The Premier presided and distributed the medals, certificates, etc. The Priu- clpal's Report of the year's work, (read by the Vice-Principal iu Dr. Robertsolrs absence through illness) disclosed a iiighly satisfactory state of affairs alld showed the efficiency and ability of the students to be up to the admirable standard which ilas al- ways been an outstanding feature of Prince of Wales College. The Report was marked by` a note of optimism llnd held out bright prospects for the future. The Principn.i`s report having been read, the presentation of in,edals, diplomas and certificates was iilade.

H. llanipbell, Superintend- ent of Education, then addresesd tli_c students, giving them sound, practi- cal advice and. while collgratulating the successful ones, exhortiug those who had not dolie so well to greater efforts in the future. He urged them all to do their work to the best of their ability aild energy ulld, above all, conscientiously. if they did this tlley would find their efforts i'r\lit- i'ul. Although some oi' them had “Ol been _.fortunate enough to siiccr-ed tllis year. they should not lose heart but fight on with greater perseverance and every determinatioli iu the future. and bear in mind tllis, tilat, while it was a very good thing, to make ii propitlous and creditable begiiiliillg. yet it was the end of the race that counted. He congratulated them on the satisfactory work that had been accomplished during the year. A cer- tificate was not a very valuable thlnl-I in itself:-if its only merit lay in its intrilisic worth, it would be a poor re- ward for a year'b hard study. But it was a great deal more than that. it was the outward sign of an inward knowl- edge of success; it was the symbol of a great mental possession. lie then referred to the war. and in it he said every young man in the country mum see aa individual duty which fell to his lot to discharge. The youn8 Bild vigorous men today could do more for their country and their Empire by going to the front than by anything else he could mention. He suglleii-ed that the young ladies could manage the schools while the men went forth as missionaries to impart to the barbar- ians of Europe at least the rtldiments of decency and civilization. The Premier, before introducinil the next speaker, also made reference to the war. They had all read, he said. ci the great heroes of days zone by who performed Dl‘0¢llKl0\1S f9BlS “I valour and whose names had como down with time to the present day- The present generation had come to think that they had fallen uD0l\ Ui; o t heroic and prosaic dayb- When '-Il chief object seemed to be that f making money and Kailillla B0m0 D9 - ty. temporary distinction. lt had sud- IIINEI iii WALES llilililii ._ motley-nlaking machines, whether they could bc capable also of valorous tleetls--ami they had more than prov- ed it.

Judge Stewart followed, speaking briefly oil the war. lic also congratu- lated thc students oil their highly satisfactory work and offered words of appreciation and elle-ouragclnent_ Ex- Goverlior McKinnon and Professor Theodore Ross made a few remarks, ill which they botll referred ill glow- ing terms to the work of the students during the past year and the spleildid results they had achieved. Mr. Mc- Kiillloii. speaking oil the war, insisted oil the great necessity for lileil, and said that, stupendous as was the task of defeating the Kaiser and his polverfui abcttors, yet the British were going to have the flag that “waived it thousand years in the battle of the breeze" waive another tllousand years to come. A number of certificates from the Palmer institute having been dis- tributed for penmansllip, the Exer- cises wcrc concluded by thc singing of thc Natiollal Aiitlicln.
