Together with the members of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, students of Bethlehem Catholic High School mourned the loss of their beloved shepherd, Cardinal O'Hara, just before the opening of the current school year. In addition, because of his association with Notre Dame University for thirty years, as well as his duties in the United States Military Ordinariate, the death of this great prelate caused grief to many throughout the nation. In secular andireligious newspapers appeared sin- cere eulogies of Cardinal O'Hara with the mention of his many praiseworthy achievements. High among these was what he accomplished for the education of youth through his interest and inde- fatigable zeal. For this he will long be remembered by all who benefited substantially from the new buildings and equipment supplied for education, but more important, from the advice and guidance of this great spiritual leader. Among his many note- worthy statements two will be remembered for their inspiration: If it is a work of God, He will find llae way of pro viding for us the necessary means. We have no problems, only opportunities. HIS EMINENCE, JOHN CARDINAL O'llARA. C.S.C.. D.D. May l, 1888 - August 28, 1960 Reqniexml in pace! Q
