There is a bottom to that barrel and a lim- it to the number of apples which can come out of it. In future there may have to be a limit on the number of students who go on to higher education, which could cause disapoint- ment. Therefore, make good use of the days you spent in school," Mr. MacKay warned. Valedictorian John Willson stated that in society today there are always new areas to investigate and explore. The in- dividual should not search blind- iy for progress but should strive to mean something to someone. "Control of people’s destiny rests in the hands of educators. therefore a broad education is a must. Education should open young people‘s eyes and mind, and give the individual tools with which to build his life and not build it for him."
