So long, Father! It surely seems nice to get into that beautiful Chrysler after put- ting in a hart! day’s work at school; and then going home for a few moments of well-deserved relaxation. Our beloved principal. Father (ireinader, who has guided us well in our four years of high school, will always be remembered as a willing advisor and friend. God love and reward you, Father. PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE I am writing this little message during the Christmas season, the season of joy and peace and humility—the season when, perhaps more than any other, the meaning of the Christian life is most clear. For, at Christmas, God gave to men the unspeakable gift of His own Divine Son for their salvation; and not merely for their salvation, but, as St. John tells us, that they might become sons of God. That is the mean- ing of Christmas; that is the meaning of the Christian life—that we might become sons of God. But what does it mean to be a child of God? Certainly it does not consist merely in our saying so; or simply in our being baptized (al- though that is the means by which we become Christians); or in ob- serving the external forms of Catholicism. The world today, more than at any other time, demands proof for a statement. A soldier does not prove his bravery merely by wearing a uniform; nor does a Catholic prove his divine sonship simply by external observances. The old adage states that actions speak louder than words. The Christian, then, shows that he is a Christian by acting like Christ. Does that sound like a startling statement? Is it a large order? It should strike you as neither startling nor extravagant, for your entire career at Catholic High has been geared to the task of making you conscious of the fact that Christ lives in you and you in Christ. By the time these words appear in print, your period of formation in the Catholic High School will be almost completed. You will be preparing to go into a world of materialism and secularism. My hope and prayer is that you will have learned your lesson well; that you will let your light shine before men that they may give glory to your Father in heaven; that you may proclaim to all men by your deeds the words of St. Paul, “I live, now not I, but Christ lives in me.” Father gives his smile of approval as Gloria Respct 9 shows him the trophy which our cheerleaders won for J.C.H.S. when they were chosen first place win- ners in the cheerleading contest.
