To the Editorial Staff and to the readers of the El Padre, T send a blessing and good wishes for their spiritual and temporal prosperity. Loyola College will be judged by its fruits, by the high character, the integrity of life, the intel- lectual attainments and the courteous civility of its sons. The traditions of the Jesuit Fathers have developed in years gone by, the highest type of educated gentlemen. The foundations of a great educational in- stitution have been well laid and prudently developed in this com- munity May I not express hope that Loyola College may extend its boundaries and circle over the vacant spaces, so that the doors of a great school may cheerfully open to all that seek entrance therein. The building of a great city is a tax on our municipal authorities; the building of churches and schools is a great tax upon this growing community; the building of a great college, such as the Jesuit Fathers desire, will also be a great tax. May we not hope that they who are blessed by Almighty God with an abundance of temporal means will not forget the needs of this great Catholic center of learning in the City of Los Angeles. -I- W vv 1 Uyv My Jj
