Vllho is respon- sible for this change? Vile all know the answer to this question and we all, consequently, owe a Very large debt of gratitude to the Christian Brothers and St. John Bap- tist De La Salle for the personal guidance they have given to us. ln retrospect, we realize that factual knowl- edge alone was not responsible for this change. Rather was it the Brothers' never-failing devotion to duty, zeal for Christian education, and Christ-like example. Through their capable instruction, we have become strong and devoted members of the Catholic Church and worth while citizens of the United States, Vive have de- veloped a sound philosophy of life which has for its object the salvation of our own souls. Although our moral and religious training has been complete the faculty has in no way neglected our secular 13 l ,I , J Miss G. PECK Librarian BRo'1'I115R BERNARD Lllflll, Rflzgiorz BROTHER J.

Viihen we entered these halls for the first time in the fall of 1942, we were inexperienced and unaccus- tomed to the manner of conduct required for the suc- cessful promotion of a high school career. Vlie were still too familiar with the lax discipline and sometimes spoiling tolerance of elementary school, in short, we were boys. VYhen we walk through the front door for the last time, it will be obvious that a complete metamorphosis has taken place in most of us. Vile have been trained to act and to think with mature deliberation. VVe have been given the fullest possible knowledge of the tools of 12 BROTHER P.vr1z1cic MR.

Upon the completion of our course here We can sincerely say, with no doubt in our minds, that We have been given the iinest high school education possible. VVe have received excellent preparation for our earthly life and the means to obtain eternal life in heaven. Whether We continue in school, are engaged in an occupation, or enter the service of our country, the Brothers' training will always have some inHuence over our actions. It has often been said that it is up to our generation to build the basis for World peace. In order to carry out this enormous task, We ourselves must have a firm foundation to fall back on. This may be con- sidered as the code of life handed down to us by the 14 MR. IRELAND BROTHER LUCIAN g,1a,g1L,,,mmf5 Latin, lfnglislz, Rfligion
