A teacher affects eternity. lie can never tell where his influence stops. — Henry Adams dedication The profession of teaching, for which we are now pre- paring, influences and profoundly alters the lives of all men. Its influence docs not cease at the termination of formal schooling, hut continues throughout life. It is to the teacher ' s influence throughout time that we dedicate this, the 1957 edition of the Cardinal. Our earnest hope is that this yearhook may serve as a testimony to the time we have spent in preparing for the teaching vocation. We humbly trust that as teach- ers we will measure up to the standards left hy our pred- ecessors, provide a worthy incentive for our fellow men. ami leave a worthwhile record as an inspiration to those who follow. May this beneficent influence of teachers continue and deepen as generation succeeds generation. 4
