XKXK,-K., if Principal's Message My dear Graduates: The theme of your yearbook-Happiness in God- is well and wisely chosen. During your four years at St. George High School, you were taught that the only and one way to know true happiness here and here- after is to be God-conscious, God-centered, and God- absorbed. Happiness is not ready-made, nor is it based on money, lame, position, or pleasure. You will experi- ence and know happiness in what you are, not in the trinkets and trilles you can acquire. As long as you are dynamically Catholic, you will be tranquilly happy. This is our hope and prayer-that each ol you is what Catholic schools aim to produce: Happy souls who radiate Christ.

Congratulations to the graduates of the Class of 1958. You have reached a goal of which you can be proud. However, there are many trials and troubles ahead of you in life. If you stay close to God and His Church, you will overcome them and make a success of your life. If you fail, you alone will be at fault. One bit of advice-use your head. God bless you all, Father David C. Dixon Cumte You have accomplished a grand task of completing four successful years in a Catholic high school. Now there are many new experiences awaiting you. Let's hope you will meet these moments with courage, de- termination, and a growing confidence in Cod. Your Father, Father Robert E. Davis Curate Pasfor's Message My dear Graduates: As you leave St. George High School, mankind is about to enter a new age. Recent scientific and tech- nological developments, especially in the uses of nu- clear energy, point to a world of the future that even the boldest imagination can hardly picture. The new age will witness even more rapid and won- derful scientific and material progress. But will it be a better world to live in from the viewpoint of man's eternal destiny? Pope Pius XII thinks it will be. Speaking recently to some 100,000 members of Catholic Action 'Youth in Italy, he said: Hklankind is entering one of the 1I10St beautiful spring-times the world has ever known, a spring marked by a great awakening and develop- ment in all fields of human life. Mfith the optimism of the true Christian, the Holy Father takes issue with those prophets of gloom who see nothing but doom ahead for mankind. The Vicar of Christ knows full well that there is danger as well as opportunity in all this exploration into the mysteries of space and en- ergy. Man could conceivably end by blowing himself off the face of the earth. But this remote possibility does not daunt the Pope. Nor should it daunt you who will be the men and women of tomorrow, as long as you pursue the truth and do the good. May God bless you and the grand future that will be yours if you keep faith with Him and love Him with all your hearts. Monsignor Carl P. Hensler Pastor
