Sister Mary Sybille .4. 7' , ff' Et' if ijt? . f ,t 1' Today with faltering steps we launch our ship into the vast sea of life. Its murky waters of 'tisms" ought not engulf us, for we have a guiding STAR, MARY, as: OPQIUOI' In our departing hour, we stand in mute array to pay tribute to all ideals held captive within these hallowed walls. Greater than the art of sculptor or painter or architect is the art of molding young minds and hearts in the art of Christian living. These pages of the FLORHAM shall ever remind us of our sturdy foundation in Catholic Educationg of the mighty structure, built not with hands but with truths of the elaborate equipment with spiritual power and momentum for actiong of well stocked supply of atomic energy of prayer to fall in step on the march to Victory for our GOD, our COUNTRY, our FAMILY and OURSELVES.

We shall attempt to mirror your beauty in the cycle of seasons in our final school activities. The sweetness of your name shall pervade the pages of this book and permeate the hearts of those who shall treasure it.

To You, Holy Father, who alone among the Church Sovereign Pontiffs, set foot on American soil and made generations happy by this momen- tous statement: "My desire cherished foralong time, was to see with my own eyes this country and to feel the pulsation of its life and labors. What could be more natural for me than to know at first-hand this great and powerful nation, which by its force of its labor and organization, by its ideals, by its inexhaustible sources of wealth, has done such great things in the past and promises so much for the future, not only for this country but for all humanity. I am indeed happy to find myself within the territory of a great people who know how to unite so beautifully and successfully a sense of discipline with the exercise of a just, legitimate, and well-ordered liberty. May all the sons and daughters of the North American continent enjoy a noble and decent existence, which is a prerequisite of a true lasting peace." May the PRINCE of PEACE reward your fatherly solicitude with a WORLD PEACE during your gracious reign. This is our Marian Prayer. .7. is .wg Dear Graduates of 1954: We are living in times of novelty and change. In the very atmosphere about us, there seems to beanervous intolerance for that which recalls the past. People become enthusiastic very readily over anything new, even if extravagant and radical, in studies, in politics, in economics, in moral and spiritual problems. The Church has neverfeared the healthy development. But in the midst of this feverish preocupation with what is new, and in the onrushing succession of theories and activities, it is important to have a right judgment of things, to maintain an orderly connection between the old and the new, to restrain and combat those social changes which defy the principles of the Divine and natural law. We must preserve our civili- zation from madness of the fool who would deny God, reject the right of the workingman, destroy the family, exclude the principles of morality from industry and augment the struggle of the classes. You are entering this maelstrom of social, economic and religious conditions. You, there- fore, have an obligation and a sacred duty as well as a difficult task to do your bit to make this a better wor-ld to live in. The remembrance of the happy years you spent here at St. Florian, dear graduates, will always be cherished by you. In time you will realize more and more that the beauty of these years is the result of the kind of life you followed here, your studies, your joyful recreations, your religious practices, the dedication of your energies to the cultivation of good citizen- ship of this wonderful country of ours. In your family life and here at school you have been trained in the knowledge and path of truth. Keep it straight and ever ascending. My dear Graduates, the Fathers and the Sisters of St. Florian are proud to give you back to your families, proud to send you into society, a chosen legion of young men and women. May yours be the guiding light following the beams of the Immaculate Heart. Yours in the Same Heart, Rev. Peter P. Walkowiak, Pastor .3. l 3 01 Rev. Edmund S.

It is befitting to begin it Mary-ly. His Holiness, Pope Pius XII has proclaimed this 1954 year as the MARIAN YEAR, in which all of the children of Holy Mother Church should pay special homage to Mary, the Mother of God and our Mother. This is a great year in the history of the Church. For all the students, and especially for you, Graduates, this year is a great year indeed, because it is the crowning year of your High School careerg you shall receive your diplomas. It behooves that you be bound in a special way by a tie with Mary. Her Immaculate Heart shall instill into your veins the life of grace in "Prayer, Action and Sacrifice". May Heaven's choicest blessings abide with the Faculty and students to progress merrily and Mary-ly through the entire year.

Bfinqu IO'-IS dinet' The . 1161-are JOVL31 ample Smiles awards, In WINTER, O Virgin, pure as the SNOW, Our devotion to You, is constantly aglow. As You watched oe'r your Son, that night in the stable, Watch oe'r US kneeling so often at His Table. Silently like your benediction, snowflakes fly to and fro Clothing our world with the velvet of His snow. Trimming it with lacework of His frost, With your shining purity -- the semblance is lost. Virgin so pure -- Mary so sweet In wintry blasts, keep us at your feet. In the hush of recollection, in stillness of prayer -- Mother, with your Son, please, remain there. In this lovely season, You brought Christ forth Joy, salvation, happiness -- life's worth. You heard us sing carols on the wintry air, And pack youthful spirits into joyful prayer. Our time is snowballing down the hill -- End of carefree coasting -- right into the treadmill. Lead our footsteps on paths that we know, O Immaculate Thou, Madonna of the SNOW.

Mysncal Channel of Grace According to the infallible teaching of our Holy Church, Mary Immaculate is the universal Mediatrix of graces. That is to say, all graces necessary to our salvation and sanctilication, merited by our Divine Savior, Jesus Christ, are dispensed by Mary - pass, so to say through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, as shown in the above picture. Even the Blessed Souls in Heaven go to jesus through Mary when they wish to obtain favors for their proteges on earth. The same obtains for the souls in Purgatory. Childlike devotion and love to Mary, to her Immaculate Heart, which is the most faithful reflexion of the Divine Heart of jesus, was always regarded by the Saints as a moral guarantee of salvation and of high achievements in the spiritual life. Since the great revelation of Fatima, in 1917, the Blessed Virgin Herself tries to draw unto Her Heart all souls of good will, in order to bring them nearer to Her Divine Son, jesus.

JB, 4? 5 1 Ever stop to think what the world was like before electricity became everybody's ser- vant? It's difficult to picture! Electric power serves so faithfully we just take it for granted. Edison's incandescent lamp, heralding the birth of modern electric service, finally became more than a dream 75 years ago. To help turn this dream into reality, other men provided the finances Edison needed. Their joint achievement is an example of how financial risk7taking and individual ingenuity combine ,to the benefit of all people. But our present way of living is only the beginning. Electricity promises for the future still greater marvels and better service. It requires men and women with many skills to provide this service. If you would like to work with such people why not get in touch with Edison's Employment Oflice?
