of Religion The purpose of education is to afford us the most complete prep- aration of mind and morals pos- sible, that we may overcome the barriers of life and merit for our- selves eternal happiness. A youth's intellect is his greatest as- set against the wiles ofthe world. The foundation, or cornerstone, of this intellect lies in our hearts. Knowledge of the fundamental sciences of language, mathe- matics and the countless others is completed by the training we re- ceive in religious education. In the development of our religious background the Faculty strives to make us spiritually zealous, Cath- olic youths who understand their r e l a t i v e purpose of existence. They endeavor to instill in our hearts and minds the thought that we are merely imperfect individ- uals given a place on earth for a purpose and afforded every op- portunity to fulfill this intention. We are taught to understand that without faith we can do nothing. ln the years to come, irrespective of where we are, or what we are doing, we will come to the real- ization that our religious educa- tion was directly the real basis of our success. l.
