Chairman's Remarks,

In addressing the gathering. Bishop Duppuy naid:-Your Ex- cellency. Lady Peel, Ladies and Gentlemen: There has been no formal ceremony connected with the building of this school since the foundation stone was inid by His Excellency Sir Edward Stubbs In June 1925. The school Coun- ril contemplated having an open- but we felt that this should not be held till the Imilding was entirely cleared of debt. This has now been done. and we are holding to-lny this Thanksgiving Social to mark the occasion, and I desire at once to any how greatly appreciate having Your Excellency and Lady Peel with us.

In asking the Hon. Dr. Kotewall to report on the history of the new college building I would like to take this opportunity of saying how much we owe to him. For

the past ten years he has taken an active interest in the welfare of the school. In 1923 he became Com. Chairman of the Building mitte, and he has been

Vice- Chairman of the College Council since 1927. He has been a driv ing force in the Building Commit- Ine, and by his untiring efforts has contributed not a little to the success so far achieved. 1 know' that Mius Woo has always found Dr. Kotewall ready to answer any call made upon his time even when he has been most busy over public affairs.

I am not going to attempt to any how much thin school owen to Miss Wou as Dr. Kotewall will do this, but we all know that if it hand not been for what she has done we should not be keeping this. thanksgiving Social to-day.

A Glance Back.

The Hon. Mr. R. H. Kotewall. Chairman of the Building. Com- mittee, in submitting a report on the history of the new building anid:

Your Excellency, Lady Peel, My Lord Bishop, Indies and gentlemen, The ceremony in which we are participating is like one of those moments in climbing a hill when the wayfarer casts a glance at the path already travelled, and then at the top of the ascent yet to be sealed. To-day, we cast our mind's (Continued on Page 10.)
