i FIUES '48 The scholastic year 1947-48 has seen Alma Mater round out a century of service to the Catholic Youth of New York. The essence of that service was a response to the command of Christ, Go forth and teach all nations. For one hundred years De La Salle has brought to her children the truly illuminating influence of the faith of Christ. Hence is the significance of the title of our annual Fides.', In Fides 48 we have attempted to offer pictorially and briefiy in text a review of the centenary year of Alma Mater. It has been our good fortune to have come to De La Salle. May this book serve in the future to warm the cockles of our hearts with refurbished memories of our days at De La Salle. As time goes by, the more shall we realize how fortunate it was for us to have been De La Salle men. Into the story of the present year we have essayed to weave threads from the last one hundred. Through the wholesome nostalgic medium of Currier and Ives scenes we have retrieved a bit of nineteenth century atmosphere. Also by reference to our grand forebears we acknowledge our great debt to tradition. Alma Mater, De La Salle is one hundred years great. May our loyalty insure and strengthen that greatness for years to come. -CLASS or '48 1948 5
