THE AMERICAN ASSISTANCY OF THE SOCIETY OF JESUS ST. ANDREW-ON-HUDSON F'OUGHKEEPSlE. N.Y. OFFICE OF THE ASSISTANT My Dear Craduates:- It is an esteemed privilege to salute you and to wish for you a rich measure of that for which JOHN CARROLL UNIVERSITY has endeavored to equip you, the fulness of culture and holiness which is Catholic life! You are venturing forth into a world that is sorely tried and tortured. False prophets have arisen in every field of human thought and activity, men of no principle, men of bad prin- ciple. You are prepared to meet this world, for you too are men of violence, men of a nobler violence, men of that Christian violence which alone can win the Kingdom of Heaven. You have been given principles for thinking straight, principles for acting right. Use them, as God gives you strength and opportunity, to further His cause on earth and your cause in heaven in whatever field of action the future may open to you! I pray and trust that yours will be a life of happiness and prosperity. I pray and know that, if you are true to the ideals of your Catholic education, yours will be an eternity of that joy and rich possession, which is God. Sincerely yours in Christ, ij '- J f K K' .jffzdwfa .Waxing Q Assistant General of the Society of Jesus for America
