6 Mx Perfect schools are All these labor un- ., the result not so much selfishly with zeal Nh. of good methods as of and perseverance in . . . good teachers. the direction and Pius XI formation of youth. l ERFECT schools are the result not so much of good methods as of good teachers, teachers who are thoroughly prepared and well-grounded in the matter they have to teachg who possess the intellectual and moral qualifications required by their important officeg who cherish a pure and holy love for the youths confided to them, because they love jesus Christ and His Church. How very true is this statement about our own faculty members at Nardin! Our teachers are ever ready to aid us in our conquests of both heaven and earth. With true understanding, they employ the supernatu- ral tools: justice, patience, and charity, and laboriously help us in our studies and our personal problems They encourage and strengthen the students by their examples and by their prayers. Christ, the Greatest Teacher, has commanded, Go, teach all nations. In a sense, each pupil is an individual nation, our teachers have accepted God's command by instructing each one of us. The Nardin faculty has imparted and will clontinue to impart spiritual and vocational knowledge to help us to try to be outstanding among God's children. Miss Helen T.
