42 Saiograph me This is Commencement Day! May we not also call it Challenge Day? It is indeed the time to which we have eagerly looked forward, the day on which we receive our diplomas from our Most Reverend Bishop. Now that it has come, we know that we must take- our place as' Catholic graduates in a world which for the most part has forgotten God, and prove that what we have received will have lasting results. Forgetting God, the whole world, including our own loved country, finds itself in a very critical condition. Our Holy Father has told us that it is a privilege to live in these chaotic times. Again and again we have heard that the world of tomorrow will be what the youth of today make it. We are therefore' individually confronted with the question: What can I do about it? and herein lies our challenge. Our training at home, church, and school has given us correct standards. Will we translate theory into Catholic Action? To which group of Catholic graduates will we belong-the group, whom Mr. Frank Sheed, well-known author, publisher, and lecturer recently characterized as good pagans with Catholic patches on them or to his other group the girls who know their religion, love it ,... share it with others . . . and above' all give good example ? The world into which we are stepping today is one which has entered its deepest moral and physical crisis. In a current issue of United Nations' World the editor offers as a solution: The most important thing for all nations is to know which of the existing instruments in today's world can be most useful in achieving both peace and security. Our Holy Father, Pius XII, and his worthy predecessors have pointed out the only efficacious instrument to peace and security-a return to God and a whole-hearted following of His blue-print, the Ten Commandments. Our Founding Fathers sensed the importance of good Christian living as we know from the Declaration of Independence, the motto on our aoins, and the charters of our early American colleges. Not the A bomb or the H bomb or a third world war is the instrument to bring peace and security. Does not each war find us still more involved in problems and less secure in our way of life? As Catholic graduates we know the only safe, way to security-Christian living, prayer, and penance, for our Blessed Lady herself has come to earth in our own day to plead with us. We are living in her era, the Marian Age. As means to reach her Divine Son, she has given us her Rosary, reparation, love of her Immaculate Heart. Today in the- sanctuary of Guadalupe, Mexico, we may gaze at her beautiful image impressed more than four hundred years ago on the tilma of her faithful son, Iuan Diego. In France we find her favorite shrines where she continues to dispense favors to her clients at LaSalette, Lourdes, and the shrine of the Miraculous' Medal in Paris. In Portugal, in our own century, we see the beautiful basilica at Fatima where pilgrims from all over the world have sought her help. The Pilgrim statue now touring the world has visited our own city and we have been privileged to touch it and pray before it. As late as 1948 at Lipa in the Philippines, Our Lady appeared to a Carmelite' novice. Her message is always the same-- Pray, do penance. Today as we thank our beloved parents, our kind pastors, and our devoted teachers for helping us thus far on our way, we ask their blessing and their prayers, that, with our hands tightly clasped in Mary's, we may meet our chal- lenge-and live as fearless Catholics, pray and do penance for ourselves and for the world.
