lllhv ---FOREWORD W E G I V E T H A N K S HE keynote of the 1946 Lantborn is that of gratitude. It is a year when we may once more look forward to the happy fulfillment of our dreams, for war has ceased and peace again has blotted out fear and uncertaintyg it is also a year in which we pause to look backward, for seventy-tive years ago Nazareth was chartered as a secondary school under the University of the State of New York. It is a year in which we have been privileged to partake of the excellent heritage which Nazareth during these many years has built up. We, therefore, give thanks to God for this year of 1946 through His Saints whose intercession we have so often invoked for success in our nu- merous activities. Our slogan for our 1946 Lantbom is W e give thankxf with it we have linked each page of our yearbook as we record some of the many happy events of our last year at Nazareth. May our slogan be forever engraved on our hearts! 8
