74 S tcvzid Red Bank Catholic High School RED BANK, NEW JERSEY Backward, turn backward, O Time, in thy flight, Make us seniors again just for tonight. So that we, the Class of 1947, may live again every glad day of the happiest school year we have ever known. Let us come face to face with His Excellency, our Most Reverend Bishop, and as we kneel to kiss his ring, raise grateful hearts to God for the blessing of his Fatherly interest in us, his Episcopal children. Let us walk even a few steps along the way from school to the rectory with our kind and faithful and holy friend, Monsignor Casey. Let us hear again his spirited words of praise for the honor pin we've earned, for the foot- ball games we've won, for the new goals we've achieved. Let us think deeply of his words of counsel, and kneel reverently as he raises his Priestly hand to bless us. Let us linger for a long, long time with our respected faculty, those understanding teachers of ours who know us better almost than we know our- selves. Let us sit listening attentively to their words of wisdom and follow closely in their footsteps along the road that leads to holiness. Let us recall with grateful affection that the Sisters have consecrated their lives to our service; that the Priests, in the name of Christ, have kept us close to Christ; that our lay teachers, men and women of character, with their religious co- workers, have devotedly prepared us for the Catholic, American way of life. Let us mingle lovingly and closely with our classmates, who have shared our every school-day hour. Let us join them at Holy Mass, run along to first, last, and in-between periods with them, hurry out to the ball field to watch them play, attend a student council meeting, try out for a part in THE STU- DENT PRINCE, dash off an article for THE SIGNPOST, walk proudly in Our Lady's procession, primp up for the prom. Let us follow the Class of 1947 through the treasured pages of THE EMERALD, recapturing as we go the blessed peace and sweet contentment we knew as favored children of our loved Alma Mater, Red Bank Catholic High, SxcelleHCtf cwtcnd TVilliam 4. u ut, 0D. . BISHOP OF TRENTON DecUcAti M TIME in answer to our plea, turns back ward in her flight, she unfolds for us the sacred memory of a holy Priest of God who practices to perfection, Christ's sweet precept of ''suffering the little children to come unto Me. That holy Priest is Monsignor Joseph T Casey and we, his children, no longer little, have known only happiness in our high school days because of his close resemblance to his Divine Master in the love of youth With sincere gratitude for his untiring de votion to every individual student of Red Bank Catholic High School, we, the Class of Nine- teen Hundred Forty-seven, reverently dedicate our treasured EMERALD to Monsignor Casey who has exemplified so beautifully for us the ideals of GOD AND COUNTRY .
