W. homo 10 visit the birth places of many
of ,be GREAT poets and writers whose &C.
ouo,ntance we have made. We want to
see stratford-uopn-Aron; the small but
charming English town whose undying re,
nown lies IN the fact Of its being the birth
place of SHAKESPEARE.
While there we must visit his grave and
see the famous bust of the great poet.
Time will not permit me to enumerate half
the objects and places we wish to see in
England; we must not fail to visit the
famous old tower in which Sir Walter
Raleigh wrote his history of the world, and
where so many of England's nobility, as
well as members of the royal family, have
langushed till death came to their relief.
We must see, also, Westminster Abbey and
stand by the tombs OF the greatest poets,
statesmen and heroes England has ever pro-
duced.
We shall also desire to visit Scotland and
see for overselves the lovely scenery so
beautifully described by Sir Walter Scott.
When we have travelled so far, We cannot
resist crossing the continent to see Faris
and Switzerland. the Alps and Rome.
We intend collecting specimens for our
geological cabinets, and examine the great
boulders and rocking stones, Fingal's Cave,
and all those interesting places we have
studied about, you will ask, perhaps, how
we expec. to find the means for all this
travelling.
We expect to earn il ourselves. There
are many different ways Of dong this, and
no two of us will have the same way. Our
class has chosen the name Of Opera or
workers, and in spite of the cry Of mo
work" which has been echoing through the
country so long, we expect to find plenty to
do and haven't doubt that our work will
be really needed.
The ott-quoted saying that there is
room at the top is true and we believe that
climbing, is good exercise.
To be sure, We hardly expect to stand on
the top of the ladder, but there are many
inches Oh the way up, waiting to be filed;
and we are persuaded that He who goes to
work with energy and perseverance, will
set every obstacle IN the way of his success
flying like leaves before a whirlwind -
and as Robertson says ut it is not so far as
man doubts, but so far as he believes tina,
he can achieve or perfect anything. All
things are possible TO him that believeth.
After classes graduate, they often fail to
carry out their plans Tor study on the plea
that they cannot find time; but | am sure
they have "all the time there's, and if we do
not find time for certain things, il must be
because we allow something else to be pu,
first.
Something is always being crowded
out of the busiest lives, but what that may
be depends entirely upon tie choice Of the
individual.
We shall devote our time to study and
our chosen occupation in preference TO
noyel-reading or fancy-work; thus fitting
! ourselves TO occupy places in society and
making our. lives useful in numerous ways.
] do not pretend to say that our class is
model class or that we never read novels.
BY no means, but we are persuaded that
life is something more serious than is i'm
piled in seeking only 10 get through with
1t in the easiest possible way.
1t is something more real, and we will
indulge in fiction only so far as We find it
really helpful to noble living; and in fancy
work and parties as occasional recreation
rather than the main business Of lite.
We have now presented to you our day
dreams, and is there any reason why we
may not hope for their fultillmen,?
We have been told all through our
course, what great advantages we were en-
joying, and we naturally expect that such
advantages will produce correspondingly
wonderful fruit. Is there any reason why
the expectations of the girls even, should be
limited in these days.
We hear continually that every path to
success is open to women, and Of many
who are leading them successfully.
Our Network has only just begun and
we 90 out in the wide world not knowing
what joys or sorrows it may have in store
| for US.
We would like to be able to read tie fu-
ture; but were we permitted to do so, are
We sure we would have courage to 90 on ?
Doubtless it is blessed thing for US that
we are not permitted to read in the book Of
fate what is in store for US.
Let us rather seek to be ready for what
