THE SENIORS PRAYER O God, we, the seniors, ask You to aid us in our spiritual life, to guide our every ac- tion that we might maintain grace, the life of the soul. We beg You to secure for us peace of mind, and we petition You to bestow upon us enlightened knowledge. We entreat You to help us build strong beings, protect us from all contagious, harmful, and deadly diseases in order that we might serve You for a longer length of time here on earth and be beside You for' ever in heaven. w J h r m- y?

Christ, the Vine, the Origin and Means of grace, has provided the perfect example of how man should live. The Most Reverend Karl J.A1ter, Archbishop of Cincin- nati, is an instrument of Christ officiating as our special minister in both the spirit- ual and material modes of our existence. As the vine injects life in its branches, the Archbishop enkindles the spirit of divine love for Christ throughout his parishes. In the past ten years the spiritual development of the Cincinnati Archdiocese has blossomed because of the encouragement by our Archbishop. He has stressed the importance of liturgical worship, restored and expanded the cathedral, Saint Peter in Chains, and fostered a deep concern for the education of Catholic youth by au- thorizing an extensive high school building prOgram. Archbishop Alter has also contributed toward the temporal welfare of his subjects. He has been active in National Catholic welfare Conference activities and in the Catholic Association for International Peace and the Catholic Conference on In- dustrial Problems. He is recognized for his advocacy of fact-Ending boards, as a means of settling labor disputes. He is a leading spokesman for the Church in America and has discussed such topics as the family, the United Nations, community relations, racial justice, and patriotism. It may be said that his justice permeates his actions.
