Perhaps music is your preference in art. Or,
you might be a lover of fine paintings, or
poetry. Your notions of art may be abstract,
or the concrete arts of doing everyday iobs
may well have the most appeal for you.
There are three standards by which any art
can be declared valid: If GOOD, it will
reflect the goodness of the Divine Creator,
if TRUE, it will be a sincere replica, a piece
in God's pattern of creation. Then it can-
not help meeting the third norm of being
BEAUTIFUL.
Shrine High's motto is "ADVENlAT REGNUM
TUUM," "Thy Kingdom Come." The initial
letters of that motto are A-R-T. We believe
that the surest way to perfection in any one
of the arts, and most particularly in the
Art of Living, is to partake of God's life.
By using Christ as our Model, we can paint
the portrait of a soul that will some day
result in an eternal masterpiece.
LIVING IS EVER THE MOST MODERN ART
The art of arts is the art of living-living
as an individual person with total responsi-
bility for that person's thoughts and deci-
sions, and living in total cooperation with
others to achieve the obiectives of society.
It so happens that the human mind of an
individual person is so constituted that it
craves truth and desires goodness. Not any
truth nor any one portion of truth. Not any
partial goodness or segment of goodness.
The human mind is satisfied with nothing
except total truth and total goodness and
their acquisition. Infinite Truth and Infinite
Goodness-this is Godl
The art of living is crystallized into: serving
our fellowman for God's sakeg serving him
2
by kindness and with forbearance, serving
him with thoughtfulness and patience, serv-
ing him at the cost of one's personal comfort.
With this concept in mind, one glimpses the
dignity of service or of labor and evaluates
the finite things we do for one another as
trans-substantiated into the infinite exten-
sion of serving God.
Thus, the art of arts is the art of living with
the proper obiective in mind.
Could we succeed in persuading a sufficient
number of persons to so live, then, and
only then, will be realized the fulfillment of
the prayer expressed by Christ when He
said, "Adveniat Regnum tuum" - "Thy
Kingdom come."

The Good ....
The True ......
The Beautiful
One of the striking developments in con-
temporary art is the mobile design. A tal-
ented artist, using his knack and know-how,
can blend contrasting elements into a har-
monious, well-balanced whole. The master
of living can likewise take all of the little
commonplaces which make up an ordinary
day, pleasant or unpleasant, and transform
them successfully.
This requires a knack which is rooted in faith,
and a know-how that is supported by grace.
The secret lies not in great undertakings but
in perfection in little things. "The Little Way"
of St. Therese is familiar to each student at
Shrine. Her Way proved the contention
that "genius consists in an infinite capacity
for taking pains."

As a result of Art's early planning, we are

Herein lies a question for philosophers but
Art, with typical penetration, leads us direct-
ly to the core of the matter. The completion
of our artistic endeavor is but the first step-
ping stone on the path which ends at the
throne of Christ the King, Infinite Goodness,
Truth, and Beauty.
