Angelus Fzfleen i T i THE Rav. HOWARD J. Fokn, A. B For the Graduates of 1940: Oh Nlary, from thy garden choose And gather to thy heart This new bouquet of fair young lives. Protect them as they chart Their journey by the morning star Of thy sweet purity That they may find the peaceful way Unto their Mother's knee. HOWARD J. FORD.

Im. REV C. M. F1NK, A. B. It has been said and rightly so that a good heart makes a good face perhaps not a pretty face but a refined and a noble one. And just as the stars are the windows of Heaven where Angels peep through so are the eyes the windows of the soul in which all that is good and noble and true is spontaneously reflected. We all are irresistibly drawn to the beautiful .We love the beautiful whether we see that beauty in a face, in a painting, in nature or in the stars of the heavens or in the beauties of our religion. The thing we love, that we are attracted by and drawn towards. Since God is Beauty Itself, there should our love lie. Beauty begets beauty. Thus it is that one noble soul is attracted by another beautiful soul. Keep your souls beautiful and your lives will be beautiful. Your inner spiritual qualities are the ones that give you true charm and these you should strive to develop. The seeds of character have been planted here at A. H. S. The success of your lives depends upon how these seeds are nurtured and cultivated. lt is your duty to see that they are watered with the graces of God, sprinkled with your own good deeds and warmed by the sun- shine of a life constant and steadfast to God and neighbor. And now that you are graduating you are leaving the days of your childhood behind and a new, more mature life opens before you. Remain ever close to the principles taught you here and whenever in life you weary of the struggle turn to the Fountain of all Graces and He will refresh you. Nlay the star of your life he ever bright and always in the ascendancy. Nlay your love of purity illuminate the star of you life and be as resplendent and enduring as the sun in the heavens. God bless You. CHAS. M. FINK.
