V THE BISHOP ' S MESSAGE Another srholastic year has come to its close, and the members of another class of high school graduates enter the path of higher educa- tion, or take their places in the broad fields and activities of life. The publication of this Annual is a testimonial of work well done, of devo- tion to lofty ideals, of the hope that great aspirations may be realized. It is fitting, then, that a word of encouragement be spoken, because the pass- age from the shelter of the school to the busy world w-ithout often means a test of the student ' s devotion to the teachings and practices of her faith. If the heart and mind have been so trained as to respond to the de- mands which religion makes upon her, then, indeed, will the graduate face the future without danger. In our day, such training is needed as per- haps never before. Our civilization, with its glittering tinsel of material- ism, is not an aid to the cultivation of that spiritual life which is es- sentially christian, and therefore the surest bulwark of the social order. The secular philosophy of life so prevalent today is frankly pagan. It has little regard for the higher things, even when it affects to regard them with feelings of tolerant benevolence. The graduate of the Catholic high school must therefore prepare to be a leader. She must champion the cause of Christ in a world which has forgotten Him. She must cherish the old spiritual virtues and hold aloft the banner of spiritual ideals. Cultivation of the mind and heart, mod- esty in deportment, care in the selection of companions and amusements, Vlecorum in dress, helpfulness in the home, should be the objects of her care. She should be a loyal daughter of the Church, and exemplify in her life the fruitful garnerings of the lessons which the Church has taught hei-. In this way, too, will the participation in the duties of citizenship be directed unto the welfare of the state and society. As a token of my appreciation of the work done this year, I extend my warmest congratulations to the Reverend Superintendents, the fac- ulty, the graduates and undergraduates of the Catholic Girls ' High School. IMay the intercession of its patrons and the patron of our diocese, St. Vib- iana. Virgin and Martyr, bring to graduates and pupils the blessings of Heaven, and may her life and suff ' erings for the Faith teach them that not alone by material things doth man live, but by every word which pro- ceedeth from the mouth of God. JOHN J. CANTWELL, Bishop of Los Angeles and San Diego. VIII
