DEDICATION Love, patience, understanding, and wisdom shines forth to us from our friend and teacher, Sister Paul Xavier. Sister, for the past seven years, has dedicated herself to enlightening the students of Monroe High School in the fields of French and English. But her interest in our school is varied, spreading out in many directions of endeavor. For six years Sister Paul Xavier has been the adviser of the yearbook, and it is only through her greatly appreciated guidance that the AURIGENA has been such a source of enjoyment and pride to Monroe students and alumni. Sister Paul Xavier -- a light in the darkness to many, and an unending source of encouragement -- is always to be remembered as a part of the Monroe we love. To Sister, then, who has so unselfishly given of her time and talents in this land of ice and snow, we dedicate this annual.

X. Luis if.. ff fig? ED:-:5:S:' 1 ' ' 41 15 His Excellency, Bishop Gleeson, left, is shown while in attendance at one of the meetings of the Second Session of the Vatican Council in Rome. Most Reverend Francis D. Gleeson, S. J. , D.D. Bishop of Fairbanks My dear Young Friends: Some bond of unity enhances every work of man, and so Aurigena of 1964 must have its theme. Inquiry re- vealed that the magic word this year isggy and I must admit I am intrigued to discover how QQ will serve to tie together the various activities of a year at Monroe. It will be safe of course to assume that Aurigena will shed much light for us on events that have centered your attention during the months since last September. It can be hoped, too, that the pictured record of these events will brighten many an hour for you in years to come. Light indeed is a theme that runs through all existence. We are told that in the very beginning, on the first of the six days of creation, God said, Let there be light and light was made -- not a mere candle light but oceans of golden light rising and swelling and overflowing and flooding all things in its brightness. What a sorry world ours would have been without light! No green fields nor forests, no shining lakes nor seas, no glistening mountains, no flowers, no visible faces of friends. This material light was only the dawn. There was yet to come the marvelous light of the mind -- a light able to pierce the surface of things and reach the truths that lie hidden in them. And, greatest of all, the light of faith in which man comes to know the mysteries of God. Let us love light in all its marvelous forms and be grateful for it and walk in it. It takes little effort to open our eyes, and when we do, there in the light of the sun lie all the wonders of creation. It takes more effort and even many years of education to pry fully open the windows of the soul for the light of intelligence to shine out and open the way to knowlege and truth. These lesser lights are but darkness when compared to the light of faith in which we learn the hidden truths of God and find our way to our journey's end where God Himself dwells in light eternal.
