For all, graduation from high school is an achieve- ment, which merits our heartfelt congratulations. During your school days at Saint lVlary's you have been guided, in- spired and encouraged by the zealous, dedicated members of the school faculty.

f4ndSd4z!ez77lcwyWeaamSag4- Just four short years ago, filled with ambition and eager to achieve, you enrolled as freshmen at Saint Mary High School. Day after day, you were guided with untiring zeal in spiritual, scholastic, athletic, and social activities, geared solely to help you form in yourself the ideal of a true Christian. This ideal, once formed, you must use all your powers of mind and soul to realize. That, we hope, you have been taught, is your life work - the only vocation that really counts. You have enjoyed all the blessings of a thorough Christian educa- tion in a Catholic High School. The ideals you have developed and the sound principles of morality you have learned to love, point out to you the path to true happiness and real success. With graduation comes your entrance into a new and strange world - a world that can be cold, indifferent, cruel, and unwilling to understand at times. In it there is only one bright guiding light that will never dim, nor cause you to be misled. Mary, the Mother of God, is your Mother, too. Not only is she concerned about your heavenly destiny, but she is a powerful and perfect advocate as well. Mary has given us a secure blueprint which she asks us to use. Perhaps, most powerful in this world of conflict, is her message at Lourdes and at Fatima. In her wisdom Mary asks us to pattern our lives on these prac- tices - Sacrifice, the Daily Rosary, the Consecration to the Immaculate Heart. Let her play a predominant role in your life. Seek her counsel, trust her, confide in her. Strive through Mary to ascend to Christ, Who through her descended to us. Keep close to Mary, and the God of Battles will place upon your head the victor's crown. Page Five
