To you, young friends, who have the privilege of attend- :hg that grand institution of learning, of which I have the honor of be ng an alumnus, I beg to convey the following messages- - - ' ' Be true to the Traditions of Immaculate Conception Convent by becoming true apostles of Catholic Social Action, as urged so repeatedly in the social encyclicsls of the Popes and as exemplified so successfully by St. Francis Xaviews University through its Exten- sion Movement. I Q - I state that your school is essentially linked wit-th Catho- lic Social Action for was not St. Vincent de Paul, Fourxler of the Sisters of Charity, one of the greatest social cruseders in the annals of the Church. This historic Lover of the Poor founded an Order of Teaching Sisters. that poor and rich alike might share in the social treasures of Holy Mother Church. , I Beidre long you will venture forth from your class-halls to engage :ln the battle of life. I would beg of you to guard against fight ng a selfish battle. Do you strive to share :ln the spoils with your f9110W IBQl,'1A in other words do try at all times and every where tolgivg a frie- ly, s brotherly lift to those less favored than your- se ves s ' , Herein lies the secret of peace, of concord and content- nent. The neglect of this Ipr1nc1p1e inevitably 'breeds discord, envy ' and hatred it st was the chief well-spring of that deluge of human blood whic recently submerged our beautiful world. - I Yes 'slew young frienis may each every one of choose as his or her I am my,Brother's Keeper. q ' Frsternelly yours, Joseph An D8 Costs, P9 Pl St. Josegh du Heine.
