That reconstruc- tion has fallen into the hands of men who had forgotten the words of Christ, Without Me you can do nothing. The world can and should be rebuilt by active Christians who can rear the new order on a strong foundation, that is Christ, the Divine Carpenter of the universe. If Christians are to do this they must be lead- ers. During the four years at Saint Casimir High School, our teachers put into our hands the Christian pointers of natural and supernatural aids that enabled us to develop leadership with Christlike personalities . The traits that accent the Character of a leader may be easily detected in the life of St. Casimir, patron of youth. Thus, under the protection of this Saint and the guidance of our Spiritual directors and teach- ers, we are prepared to be Christlike leaders working for God and our country. Hence, as you thumb through this yearbook you will note how we strived to develop this Christlike leadership to make ourselves strong builders of the world and Masters of Life.
