I also want you to remember that one day Canada will become, if her
people are faithful to their high British traditions, the most powerful
of all the self-governing nations, not excluding the people of the
United Kingdom, which make up the British Empire, and that it rests with
each one of you individually to do your utmost by your own conduct and
example to make Canada not only the most powerful, but the noblest of
all the self-governing nations that are proud to owe allegiance to the
King.

Earl Grey.
Governor-General of Canada

TO-DAY


So here hath been dawning
Another blue day;
Think, wilt thou let it
Slip useless away?

Out of Eternity
