N EJZIUVZQZZQI rfpmkmg N-4 An advent of rnternatronal tolerance would foster a lastrng peace Frrst of all though there must be a total exrt of contrnental racral slaughter So often A GREAT GIFT Glam: Bofaztr 44 tolerance rs mrsrepresented' Today especrally we look around at the people of the world lightrng and hatrng each other and wonder Where rs tolerance? Tolerance rs not acceptrng exrl people and srt uatrons but rt rs understandrng the weaknesses and forbles of human nature Srn rs rntolerable srn ners are understandable Can a man honestly be rntolerant wrthout hatrng hrmself? For each man more or less rs a common sharer of the misery of the world It rs an unhappy man who rs not a tolerant man he rs a great soul who rs a tolerant soul Yes rndeed rt rs a great rft tolerance force whrch grasps us causes us to lose con trol of our emotrons makes us openly reveal what we feel rn our rnner most hearts when we want to conceal rt? Are we weak sentrmentalrsts or are we just lackrng strength? orephme Agnello 44 We Senrors ask these questrons But no matter how we try to analyze the cause of our unpredrct able actrons the fact remams that our Senror class rs no drfferent from any other Senror class that has ever graduated from Mercy We too have Cher rshed tenacrously all the last trmes srnce the frrst day of school rn September we too must be envel oped by that wave of sadness whrch accompanres the strarns of Goodbye Dear Mercy Hugh w too must experrence that tradrtronal feelrng of loss at graduatron But now Senrors let us analyze the srtuatron not wrth our hearts but wrth our mmds Let us rcgard our farewell not as an end but as a begrn nrng the begrnnrng of a lrfe rn whrch to rndoctrr nate the world wrth the rdeals whrch we have formed at Mercy How gratrfyrng to know that we may be an rnstrument rn grvrng a lrttle brt of Mercy to the world For four years we have been grven so much We cannot express our gratrtude rn words S0 t remarns for us now to express rt rn actron lrvrng all that we have learned XVrth our farewell we also add thank you thank you for just berng Mercy Yes we are weak sentrmentalrsts but who wrll defy that rntangrble force whrch causes us to be sad at lcavrng Mercy?
