1 Defcafzbn The Class of 1956 would like to dedicate its Annual to the devoted Sisters of the Most Holy Sacrament who spend themselves untiringly in the education of youth, but most particularly to Reverend Mother Laura, Superior General of the Congregation. 1956 marks the Golden Anniversary of Reverend Mother Laura as a member of the Sisters of the Most Holy Sacrament. Fifty years of service to God, the Catholic Church and to our country through the noble profession of the education of young people. The importance of a Catholic education cannot be sufficiently emphasized. His Holiness Pope Pius XI in his encyclical letter the CHRISTIAN EDUCATION OF YOUTH stated: It is therefore as important to make no mistake in education, as it is to make no mistake in the pursuit of the last end, with which the whole work of education is intimately and necessarily connected. In fact, since education consists essentially in preparing man for what he must be and for what he must do here below, in order to at- tain the sublime end in order for which he was created, it is clear that there can be no true education which is not wholly directed to man's last end, and that in the present order of Providence, since God has revealed Himself to us in the Person of His Only Be- gotten Son, who alone is the way, the truth and the life, there can be no ideally per- fect education which is not Christian education. Catholic leadership is necessary. Students in our Catholic schools are prepared mentally, socially, physically and spiritually to assume positions of responsibility in every profession. Christian education, states Pope Pius XI, takes in the whole ag- gregate of human life, physical and spiritual, intellectual and moral, individual, do- mestic and social, not with a view of reducing it in any way, but in order to elevate, regulate and perfect it, in accordance with the example and teaching of Christ. Therefore, we the Class of 1956, hereby dedicate the Annunciette to Reverend Mother Laura and the Sisters of the Most Holy Sacrament. ...LLL 'P X 4?Si'YiNTE2l?l8SN693,MWB5iE S!mBWUmllRMMH 1llBNU!lIAIl
