“From (lit uumnliini.s-, lt (lie prairies» To the oceans irliitt u'illi foam, God, bless America, our home, sued home! ' President’s Address Ei.i vnor LiVanv.ii We have assembled here this evening with a spirit of pride and pleasure. We feel proud because we have reached the termination of a Catholic high school education. We arc especially happy to have the opportunity to share this memorable occasion with so many of our dearest friends and relatives. It is my privilege, in behalf of the Class of '42, to welcome you to our Class Night Exercises. When we recall the years which have gone before, we find imprinted in our hearts, undying memories of those devoted benefactors who have been ever helpful, ever faithful to us each step of our way. To our pastors and priests who have been our spiritual leaders and helpers, we express our deepest gratitude. To our teachers, the understanding counselors who have unselfishly devoted their time and efforts to the betterment of each and every student, we extend our sincere appreciation. Finally, we owe our greatest debt of gratitude to the loving parents whose love and devotion knew no bounds—whose encouragement and interest have been indispensable to our happiness and success. Although ominous clouds of war may threaten our freedom, we face the future with courage and determination. Finding protection and consolation under the mantle of the Sacred Heart, equipped with a Catholic education and inspired with burning zeal to do right, we are prepared to enter upon our new way of life.
