..gl f'x 1 S ... C T .1g::f'f Q' A ,f'f'f - ' ST. THEODORE Theodore Tyre, a native of Syria, was young when he enlisted in the Roman Army. With his legion, he was sent into w1nter-quar- ters in Pontus, when fresh edicts were published by Maximlan, for continuing with the utmost rigor, the persecution, which had been raised by Diocletian. Our young soldier was so far from concealing his faith, that he seemed to carry it written on his forehead. Being seized and presented to the governor of the province, and the tribune of his legion, he was asked by them how he dared to profess a religion which the emperors punished with deathg to whom he boldly made the following declaration: UI know not your gods. Jesus Christ, the only son of God, is my God.' His Judges, with a pretended compassion for his youth, allowed him time for reflection, and dismissed him for the present. Theodore employed this interval in prayer for perserverance. When he was carried a second time before the governor he was ready to prevent his questions by a profession of his faith. Un- der all manner of torments the saint maintained his tranquility and greatness of soul, and ceased not to repeat the words of the psalmistz 'I will bless the Lord at all times, His praise shall be always in my mouth.' St. Theodore is presented in art as standing on a crocodile or dragon. The emblem of Satan or of sin, which he overcame as a good Christian Soldier. The Sophomore Class wish to take this opportunity to thank Father Hammes, We appreciate being able to take part of our high school in a Catholic atmosphere, and this appreciation will no doubt grow with the years, We are not unmindful of the many sacrifices made for our benefit and convenience. Your spirit of zeal and devotion cannot but have an influence for good on our lives. Your many acts of kindness will not be forgotten, and in return we are asking Our Immaculate Mother for many, many favors for you. --Ruth Fritz 'so
