Because this message deals with one who is remembered for his simplic- ity, it shall be a simple message. Today we hear so much talk about how bad the world is—apparently it has never been so evil before— and particularly how wicked young people are. Now, we won’t argue about the degree of wickedness today as compared with past times; we shall simply say that there is a great deal of evil and sin in the world, but that such conditions are not new—there has been a great deal of corruption in the world at various past times, too. For example, the age of St. Francis was a time when people, es- pecially the young, had lost sight of the important things in order to run after the passing pleasures of this life. As a youth, Francis was no exception to this general trend. But, after his conversion, he saw clear- ly that only one thing mattered; nor was he content merely with amending his own life, but he also tried to bring the happiness of Christ’s Gospel to all. The message I give, then, is the lesson which St. Francis taught, not by w'ords, but by his life. Realize, above all, that the only really important thing in life is your eternal salvation. Then, having realized the happiness that a truly Christian life can bring, you will not be con- tent until you bring this joy to others. This is the message of St. Francis, the message of Christ: love of God and love of neighbor— true charity. PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE Father Greinader, our principal, will ever be remem- bered by the students of Catholic High for his guid- ing hand and kind words. May we express our grati- tude by saying, “May God reward you, Father.”

Johnson Coach It appears that the Sophomores are in for a difficult Geometry lesson. Sister Zachary seems to be preparing that lesson just a little too carefully. The sisters at Central Cath- olic possess the patience needed to teach the difficult required subjects for which the students will be ever grateful as they further their education. r Sister Mary Francis, S.S.J.
