A Half-Holiday

And now, in conclusion, to mark the pleasure I have had in visiting your School, I am going to ask the Headmaster if he will be so good as to grant you a half 'holiday in which to enjoy on your playing fields the glorious weather we are now revelling in after the trying) heat of the summer. (Applause).

After granting the holiday, the Headmaster asked D. Anderson, the senior school profect, to speak. D. Anderson said, on behalf of the school that he thanked His Excel- lency and Mrs. Southern for their visit, and that Is Excellency's speech would long be remembered and treasured by prefects and boys. He then called for three cheers, which were given very heartily.

After three lines of the National Anthem had been played, His Ex- celleney and Mrs. Southorn met the members of the staff, and left short- Jy after noon.

The school then assembled in the Hall. After the first verse of the National Anthem had been

Mr. Southorn's Speech

Although the school buildings are not yet finished, I have seen enough to show that you have al- ready a school-house worthy of the traditions of your school, and it is for the present and future boys of the Diocesan Boys' School to see that the tradition is worthily maintained.

Now that tradition can only be maintained by the cultivation of a corporate spirit on a high plane. You must all work together for your school; at the same time, you must all feel that the honour of the school is in the individual keeping of each separate boy. Each of you must make it his own special duty to uphold the school's honour in work and play alike.. And no school rules and regula- tions will by themselves maintain a boy on that high plane which your school deserves. Voluntary discipline alone can do that, for,
