BECAUSE OF THEIR TIRELESS EFFORTS, REV. JOHN A. LYNCH Principal MOUNT SAINT JOSEPH ACADEMY RUTLAND, VERMONT OFFICE OF THE PRINCIPAL To you my good friends of the Class of '58, have come both the privilege and the responsibility of graduates. Congratulations to you and prayers for you arc both in order. You have achieved a goal and this is good. May the lessons learned in that achieving stay with you always. You have also thereby accepted a responsibility. A responsibility to God—to live the truths you have learned. This is the time to remind you that it was Our Lord Himself who said, Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the Kingdom, but he who does the will of my Father.” A responsibility to your country—to take an active part in its burden of world leadership and do- mestic responsibility. If everyone were as good a citizen as you are, how good a country would our country be? A responsibility to yourself—no one, including God Himself, can save your soul unless you arc- willing and active yourself. So many, many things suddenly become unimportant in the light of this consideration. St. Joseph, however, will be with you always. Turn to him for courage, faith and perseverance. May God Bless You.
