The intimate correlation betweenone's business activities and one's social and political problems is a characteristic of twen- tieth-century life. Therefore, the primary aim of the busi- ness course is to instill in the pupils a deep sense of security and confidence. A well-balanced development of practical and theoretical skills will be of in- estimable value to foster finan- cial prosperity. Yet every studentmust be made to realize that business princi- ples are morally detrimental when they are not in harmony with Chris- tian ethics. He must remain ada- mant in his conviction that at no time must probity be sacrificed on the altar of efficiency.

Q I 0m44dcu,4dawMx No field contributes more direct- ly to the objectives of secondary ed- ucation than do social sciences in the Catholic High School. Social Sciences help the students to build up their character, their personality, and their religious life. Through these studies they learn to become good citizens, combining love of country and re- spect for the nation's traditions with an appreciation of its achieve- ments and a realistic view of its shortcomingsg they also learn to become leaders in their homes and among their friends and as- sociates. Social Sciences contribute to the rebuilding ofa Christian so- cial o rde r by implanting the Christian social principles in all students so that strong Christian social attitudes may flower as vibrant Christian social vir- tues. Social Sciences train the pu- pils to understand their rights and duties in relation to the family, the local community, the state, and the community of nations, and develop in them the essential habits and atti- tudes for exercising these rights or discharging these duties. Social Sciences train the s tud e n t s fo r intelligent, honest, devoted service to country, and for zealous, thoughtful, and socially ef- fective membership in the Mystical Body of Christ. 1.
