To the Faculty In going to a private, college preparatory school, one's main aim must be to acquire an outstanding education. We the students must acquire this, and to gain this end we depend upon men and women with greater experi- ence and education than ourselves. The faculty then is placed in a most responsible posi- tion, and they fulfill this responsibility most admirably. The faculty is made up of men and women with varied experiences and abilities, and this is fortunate, for each member can impart to a student something different, thereby molding the student into a well-rounded indi- vidual. It is to the faculty then that we the students owe much of whatever success we may gain in college and future life. They work to make us the kind of individuals who will be able to provide the leadership for America in the fu- ture. For this we must remain eternally grateful. FRANK H. BELOW, JR.

To the Members of the Class of 1961 I would direct your attention to the words of the concluding prayer used each year at the Commencement Vesper Service in the Chapel which reads: O Lord, our Heavenly Father, we beseech thee with thy gracious favor to bless, preserve and guide all who have gone forth, and who now go forth, from this School. Watch over and guide them and us in our several callings and walks through life, and especially at this time, that we may do our work, whatever it may be, as the work Thou givest us to do - and may we do it in Truth and with Courage, and to the benefit of mankind. Make us humble, brave and loving, and make us ready for adventure. WE DO NOT ASK THAT THOU WILT KEEP US SAFE IN THE . DAYS WHICH LIE AHEAD, BUT THAT THOU WILT KEEP US LOYAL, LOYAL TO OUR FRIENDS, OUR SCHOOL, OUR COMMUNITIES, LOYAL TO THE GREAT PRIN- CIPLES OF OUR COUNTRY, that iustice and love and freedom and peace may be established throughout the world. This, we ask in the Name of Him who was loyal unto death, even thy Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. The capitalized words relating to LOYALTY are of central importance for each of us in the times in which we are destined to live. For so many people in our day, Personal Safety or Security - a what's in it for me philosophy - seems to be of foremost con- cern, ond, in the process, this repetitively evokes nothing but frustration, bitterness and rebellion. Yet, all history reveals to us the basic truth that, He who would ind himself must lose himself in something greater than himself - and, for the followers of Jesus, the Christ - He becomes the guide and example - the greater than self in Whom all else is centered. Loyalty to high ideals for Him led to death on the cross. Yet today, He stands as the Victor, as Christ the King. May He rule in your hearts and minds, and spirits, and thus may Justice and love and freedom and peace be established through- We out the world.
