TWWLNMCYSMNN OUR HTGH SCHOOL Four years have glided by since, as ignoble Freshmen, we entered the doors of Saint Aloysius High School and made it our Alma Mater. Now, four years after that memorable day, we are on the threshold of those same doors only in a different role and with a different point of view. Then we dreamed of the day, when we, as time honored Seniors, would be graduated. Our dream has been fulfilled. But with it comes a bit of sadness which was quite unexpected, until we realized that we were leaving-leaving the corri- dors behind to ring with the goings and comings of other classes. It is to our consolation, however, that we have grown both physically and mentally during our stay at Saint Aloysius High School but perhaps the most important result of our eight terms has been our spiritual development. Wlieii we entered, we were at one of the great turning points of our lives, the turning from Catholic children into upright Catholic manhood and womanhood. To this task, our good teachers, the Sisters of Charity, under the able and watchful guidance of the Reverend Father Duffy, set themselves. As a result, we now not only are able to cope with the graduates of any other High School intellectually, but what is more important we are now more fortified to battle with the world for that precious prize, our immortal soul. Along with this teaching, we passed through four years of strict scho- lastic training. Our memories were strengthened by our two years of History. Our appreciation for thegarts and literature was matured by our studies of the works of not only the great Latin masters, Vergil and Cicero, but, by the more ornate and Hourishing poets of the French and English language. Our analytical and reasoning powers were tested and further developed through Algebra, Geometry and Chemistry. Thus, we find that with these and with the extra-curricular sports and activities, we have fulfilled to the utmost de- gree the true definition of education, the full and equal development of the mental, moral and physical faculties. The end has come to our High School days. And should we care, we may listen through the halls of Saint Aloysius High School to the echoes of the class of '56 slowly die out forever. -EDWARD A.
