HIS EXCELLENCY, THE MOST REVEREND WALTER A. FOERY, DD. BISHOP OF THE DIOCESE OF SYRACUSE Page 5 Page 6 As This class leaves The doors oT Alma MaTer, iT Tinds The world in The Throes of a mighTy and bewildering sTruggle Tor peace. WiTh The Torces aT anTi-ChrisT, a Thoroughly worldly spiriT seeking ascendencyi wiTh ChrisTianiTy bearing iTs cross oT humiliTy and holding aloTT The Torch oT True educaTion in The Things ThaT make Tor blessedness. we see man searching Tor whaT he calls peace. The quesTion is-is man really seeking peace or, raTher, is he seeking The age-old graTiTicaTion of worldly insTrumenTs ThaT only seem To saTisTy a maTerial and hereTical appeTiTe? Our EThics has TaughT us The meaning oT True peace, namely, inTimaTe Triendship wiTh The primal cause, The CreaTor oT all exisTing beings. From This inTimaTe Triendship wiTh our CreaTor emanaTes happiness, and ThaT happiness is peace. As There is buT one Unproduced being, iT musT be The primal cause and The CreaTor oT all oTher exisTing beings. IT musT, ThereTore, conTain in iTselT all exisTing perTecTions, and in an inTiniTe degree. A cause musT conTain The perTecTion oT The eTTecT iT produces, and an inTiniTe cause musT conTain each perTecTion in an inTiniTe way. ThereTore, The One lnTiniTe Unproduced Being, The primal cause oT all oTher beings, musT be a being oT inTiniTe infelligence, power, will, TruTh, goodness and beauTy, love, glory, happiness and peace. IT musT, Therefore, be an lnfiniTe Person, The Absolufe, To whom all men, naTions and governmenTs owe praise, reverence, love and service. ThaT One lnTiniTe Being is God, a Personal God. In so Tar as we ally ourselves inTiniTely wiTh our Divine Lord, in Thinking and doing only ThaT which He wanTs us To do, and in compliance wiTh The rules oT His Church, His Divine lnsTrumenT on earTh, which has'handed down To us His desires in unbroken succession Through The ages-in Him, Through Him, and wiTh Him do we Tind happiness and peace. How misTaken is The world which would Tell us ThaT we could be happy wiTh riches, honors, sensual pleasures, human sciences, virTues or all puT TogeTher, buT raTher, knowing God and doing His ETernal Will. Then may we say wiTh The DoeT: True happiness loeacel is noT The growTh of earTh The soil is TruiTless if you seek iT There, 'Tis an exoTic oT celesTial breaTh And never blooms buT in celesfial air: SweeT planT oT Paradise! lTs seeds are sown ln here and There, a breasT of heavenly mould, IT rises slow, and buds. buT ne'er was known To blossom here-The climaTe is Too cold. - Rev.
