O
N this happy occasion,
so near the sixtieth anniversary of the
date of the coming of our Icelandic
settlers to Manitoba, I wish to extend
on behalf of our College a most sincere
greeting of good will and congratula-
tion.
During the pp.st sixty years vast de-
velopments have taken place in agri-
culture, industry and education, and
there have been corresponding changes
in the outlook of all Canadians. Al-
though the desirability of some of these
changes may be questioned, most of
them have been in the direction of pro-
gress—better living and working con-
ditions and a finer sense of communal
responsibility.
The young people now growing up will
know the “brave old days” only by hear-
say; but with such a background and
with adequate preparation for the
future, they should go far toward realiz-
ing the full and happy life of which our
forefathers dreamed when they landed
in this new country.
President.
