Legend The legend of the seal of Austin Catholic Preparatory School is as follows: The bishop's mitre attests to the episcopal dignity of St. Augustine, the school's patron. The Latin words Ybllzg Lqge Ctake up and read j, in the upper half of the shield, commemorate the incident in the life of St. Augustine which inspired him to take up the New Testament andto read the passage from sacred scripture which was instrumental in his conversion. The heraldic swan in the left side of the bottom half of the shidd is taken from the coat of arms of the Earl of Essex, under whose auspicies the Augustinians flourishedin England on their arrival in 1250, and where they were called Austin Friars. The emblematic lily in the right hand side of the bottom half of the shield represents Mary Immaculate, whose devotion and patronage have been associated with the Augustinians from their beginning in 388. The name of the school and the date ofits founding complete th e inscription in the scroll around the seal. Magi stro The name of the yearbook is Zlflagislro. It is taken from the title of one of St. Augustine's writings. In the year 389 A.D. Augustine composed his pedagogi- cal trcatise Dc Mngislro. This is a dialogue between himself and his son, Adeodatus, who, though only fifteen years old, was a youth of extraordinary powers. In this literary work the father and son direct their attention to the question of the extent to which one can learn from a teacher. The main thought of the treatise is that man refers all that he understands to the inner truth of right reason which is implanted in his mind. The teacher, therefore only exhorts the learner to make that consultation. Learning does not come through the words which sound outwardly on the earbutthrough the Truth which enlightens us inwardly in our minds. Rev. l'?zll1er Henry fllaibusclt, 0.3. A .
