Foreword A rose--what a regal fragrant flower- - Unfolding silently its lovelinessl I look into its depth of beauty And know it is God's gift, to cheer and bless. INCE a thing of beauty is a joy forever, the Class of l956 chose as the theme of this year's Rosarium the cultivation of a rose . A rose bush is a plant of strength and beauty. It is a lovely symbol of our life at Nardin where we have grown in wisdom and beauty in the sight of God. The faculty with care and solicitude made sure our bush grew strong and tall on the trellis of our faith. Our roots, pierced deep in the soil, give support to the plant. The knowledge we acquired in the elementary grades is the foundation of our lives . There we learned the existence of God and the real purpose of our lives. There we secured our first strong grip on life. We were taught to nourish our souls and to keep in God's grace . Freshman year we were the young shoots, delicate and fragile, yet strong in our intense desire to blossom according to the plan of God . Shy, unsure, and yet finding comfort in each other, we entered into a different world and began to grow up. The strong and sturdy stem was our sophomore days. At this time we grew up through tangling, weedy impediments and developed the delicate buds of our junior year. Eagerly we awaited our last year, even as we tried to stay those moments of happy anticipation. Now--Senior Year--our rose is in full bloom. We have blossomed into womanhood. We are strong now, and have instilled in us the virtues we will need to progress in life . One by one we will be chosen by God to go our different ways in our specific vocations . Yet we will ever remain united spiritually, because we have received our strength from the same source, our Catholic education. The activities at Nardin increase the fullness and color of life. As every flower adds beauty to the full- grown rose bush, so every girl who enters an extra-curricular activity develops her talent and increases in wisdom for the benefit of all. With our bush in full blossom and our high school days complete, we are ready to face the world. Our main objective is to make sure that our lives never wither as a neglected rose bush does. We must rely on Mary's help to keep us fresh and pure and radiant at all times . In her honor we publish this edition of the Rosarium. 2
