TRIBUTE TO BISHOP CARROLL BISHOP CARROLL “Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace; where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon, where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console; to be understood, as to understand; to be loved, as to love, for it is in giving that we receive, it is in pardoning, that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.’’ St. Francis of Assisi. This Prayer seems to be the Life Ideal of his Excellency Bishop Carroll. May we also try to reach this goal set for us through his example and we would be an inspiration to those working with us.

ALL YOU HAVE DONE SISTER SUPERIOR The one in life wherever placed Hath happiness in store Who walks not in the wicked way Nor learns their guilty lore Nor from the seat of scornful pride Casts forth his eyes abroad But with humility and awe Still walks before his God That one shall flourish like the trees. Which by the streamlets grow The fruitful top is spread on high And firm the root below. SISTER LECLERC The time has come once again for another group of graduates to leave the Holy Cross. In turning our thoughts to the past, we realize that the memories of our three years of training are not fragmentary and nebulous: rather, they are very clear and con¬ cise. Among those memories which stand out from the rest are those of one who was always ready with friendly advice and encouragement. When things went wrong as they sometimes will When the road we trudged on seemed up hill When the funds were low, and the debts were high. When we wanted to smile, and could but sigh When worry pressed us down a bit. There was someone saying rest don’t quit. For life is queer with its twists and turns As everyone of you sooner learns And many a student gives up, turns about When she might have won, had she stuck it out. Try hardest when you’re hardest hit It’s when things seem worst that you mustn’t quit. To you Sr. LeClerc, we dedicate these simple but sincerely thankful lines.
