Words and deeds . . . Two pow- erful, inspirational forces which mold the character of youth! Our parents provide the first.influ- ence, therefore, the most im- portant, our Teachers in the' class- rooms complement the process of formation which has begun in the cradle. As we view in retro- spect The many individuals who have contributed their talents and spiritual guidance to our store- house of experience, we find that some have made an indelible im- pression on our minds and hearts. Two Sisters of St. Joseph have been motivating forces for the good, the true and the beautiful in our lives, and for this reason we would like to express our gratitude in some small way to Sister John Joseph and to Sister Serena, who have passed on to their eternal reward. Nyw Yf 133 sm 55.11, Sister John Joseph had labored for eighteen ot her fifty-two years of teaching, in our high school, she died in her fifty-fourth year of religion. Sister Serena had spent nine of her forty-three years of Teaching, at Baker-Vic- tory, she died in' her forty-fifth year of religion. Both Sisters worked long and untiringly in God's Vineyard, and their daily lives exemplified the spirit of their Community. Prayers for the happy repose of their souls will be uttered frequently by their de- voted pupils. lt is with sincere appreciation that we, the Class of 1961, dedi- cate our Year Book, The Golden Cross, to the loving memory of Sister John Joseph and of Sister Serena.

Forvvard-ever forward! Day by day, month by month, year by year, the class of '61 has ever forged onward in its Journey to Suc- cess. The days of childhood are mere shad- ows in our memories. The days of adolescence are slowly, but surely drawing to an end. The days of adulthood, full of hope and prom- ise of future accomplishments, challenge our ideals and capabilities. Graduation will shut the door on our adoles- cent days and we will find ourselves, young adults, iourneying alone toward our goal of success. How well we have learned on our road through adolescence! A way of life has been shown to us. We have been taught well, and have also been molded by Catholic principles. We have been prepared and strengthened to walk, chin up and head high. We shall commence our Journey to Success with the assurance of a Catholic education. We shall never waver from the path which to be truly successful must lead us to the success of eternity. Our first faltering steps were taken here at Baker-Victory. May we show you how well we have traveled them?
