To appreciate the problem of rehabilitation after the war, it is only necessary to think what percentage of people we know are engaged in the same thing today. After the First World War our government's policy was to develop primary industry and many of the returning soldiers were. All in all, it was a failure and the position could not be kept under control because most of the production had to be sold for the good of the world.
This gave the atmosphere of the event a sense of realism that was shared by all the parents present. 34;The policy of the government regarding the faculty is that we must. And to the young men who are receiving their degrees, and to those of other classes who have persevered so manfully that many have won high marks and well-deserved prizes, we offer our best congratulations."
Proceedings ended early as most of the visitors had arrived by train and had to leave for the railway station shortly after 3pm.

This year there have been several additions to the contents of the attachment shed, which probably all have their uses. Chief among these machines is the new side rake, which has proved extremely useful in .. handling hay. Since the Caterpillar D2 was recalled to its rightful owners, the farm has been without a working tractor and is entirely dependent on horse-supplied power.
Only the varieties that show the most promise, and the important baking quality and other tests, are sown. Because of the current interest in the dehydration of vegetables, plans have been made to carry out experimental .fork in this field.

Retallick, Halsey and Collings, of the farm and kitchen staff, also chose that month to leave for ammunition work, and later Clive Hogben, Mr McDonald's dairy chief of staff, left to take up an estate of his. For a moment, most of the time seemed to have taken him to remember the names of the rapidly changing names.

With military service taking up so much of our spare time, going to work hardly seems worth it except to recover. The work of the Circle continued despite some difficulties, but with unwavering interest and enthusiasm the aggressive Japanese army called for a redistribution of our forces. This has so far had the tone of an apology, but it is not intended as such, but rather as a statement of fact that has made the work of the Circle more difficult and demanding than was the case during the first two years of the war. Therefore, if anyone from our clientele in the Armpd forces suspects a decline in our enthusiasm, it is based on a false basis: the enthusiasm remains.

To give the gruesome details, one has to reveal the "military secret" that some of the returned A.I.F. Since the Home Guard came into existence, several members of the College's staff have been regular supporters, and their zeal has been rewarded to some extent by the issue of uniforms and certain equipment. With the ad vent of commissions and N.C'.O.'s in the Home Guard, the College representatives produced a commendable percentage.
The equipment has been difficult to obtain, and this has resulted in some curtailment of the use of the billiard room towards the end of the year, and the abandonment of the second of a series of very interesting competitions. Our thanks are due to the ('ommittee for their tireless efforts in keeping the table and lines in good order, thus ensuring that the complications continue.

The teams represented in the Ga\del' Cricket Association at the beginning of the season were Railways, Lyndo::h, Riverside and College, but after playing four rounds. the association went into recess. Our team, ably led by H. Day, played consistently throughout the short season and topped the Premiership table winning all the games they played. For the 1942-43 season no association was formed and we have sought matches with schools and service teams, so far with considerable success. We have secured a fairly full slate of one-day matches up until the start of the annual trials and have good prospects for further matches in the new year if sufficient pupils are available. The Inter-year Sh ie ld was won by the third year who scored a total of 114 points and the second year came second with 78 points.
