1 LA LUMIERE Ulialuip’n 14ausr 51 Corral trrrt annum, Arizona 0 0 the (graduates of Saint Joseph’s Jlcadem Prescott, Arizona, A. D. 1927 It seems strange that the end of a young man or woman's school days should be called Commencement Day, and yet the reason of this is clear, for the young graduate has not finished his career. He is only beginning. He is just commencing to make use of the knowledge he has been acquiring, and on the way he lines up to true principles in the world he is entering, shall depend the measure of his success. Qenerally speaking, the world counts success by the amount of power, honor, or wealth a man may possess; but history and our own experience teach us other- wise, and show us that the world's standard of what constitutes real success in life is wrong, for they give us too many sad examples of men whose lines were richly en- dowed with power, honor, and wealth, and yet were failures. If your careers are going to be successful ones, you must remember that mere material things, how- ener necessary they may be, are short-lined and should nener be regarded as more than means to a noble end. In enery true man and woman there must be found something higher, nobler, and holier, that shall line for eternity, and that is fidelity to duty IDhen a man has lined his life and it can be truly said of him that all his actions were characterized by honest effort, by fidelity to duty- duty to Qod, his fellow-man, and his country that man, and he only, has achiened success. He may have died poor, unwept, and unhonored, as many a brane soldier has, but his deeds shall be eternal, cfo be a success, then, means primarily to be men and women of duty, and to be this, you must hane principles to guide you in your relationship with Qod and your fellow-man. Ifou must be intellectually conuinced that a certain line of action is right and then this conviction must pass beyond your lips by influencing and governing the actions of your lines. Strength of will is at the bottom of real character, and virtue, without which life is worthless. 11?e take this occasion of extending our heartiest congratulation, and of wish- ing you the highest success in life success that shall merit eternal friendship with Qod in Heaven, for to each one of you He speaks today;— Esto fidelis usque ad mortem et dabo tibi coronam vitae. (Apol. 11-10). Devotedly yours in Christ, DANIEL J. QERCKE. bishop of Tucson, Page Two
