- J.S" -. , all parts of the World are friends and brothers, A prospering Club shows enthusiasm for the old School and is a sign that it is a good school. Old Boys have great responsibilities, too, for it is by their character and conduct that other people judge the school from which they come. W. Hulett replied briefly to the toast, and then expressed keen disappointment at the small attendance. He hoped we should ask absentees vj'hy they were not present. P. Jackson proposed "The Staff", and uttered some endearing words, being satisfied to say that the masters vrere a good lot and quite useful. Mr. Oram, replying, assured us that the Staff was greatly interested in the boys. Indeed, the boys would blush with modesty if they realised hov/ much discussion went on in con nection with their vj-ell-being. The School, he said, had a warm place in the heart of the Staff, and he sincerely hoped that the Staff had a vmrm place in the hearts of the boys. Hew. Alien Lea spoke of the early days of the School,mention ing the part he had played in its foundation, and the joy he felt, at its promised success.
