Persons wishing to retain the originals should submit duly authenticated copies. Moreover we remind all the faithful that in accordance with the statutes of Canon Law they have a strict obligation to bring to our attention or to that of the Promoter of the Faith of our POPE OF SAINTS ETC. Tribunal any information, facts, or circumstances which would speak against the sanctity of the mentioned Servant of God, or against the mir- acles which are attributed to his intercession. In such cases members of religious orders, both male and female, are also obliged to inform us directly by secret and sealed letter, or to in- form us by way of their confessor. The illiterate and all those who for any reason might be unable to write ought to present the matter to their Reverend Pastor or Confessor, who will conform to Canon 2025, par. 3 of the Code of Canon Law. Finally, we decree that this Edict be displayed for an uninterrupted period of two months on the doors of the Vicariate and all parish churches of Rome, as well as be publicized, to the extent that this is possible, in all places where the Serv- ant of God exercised his pastoral office, and in fine be published in the Official Diocesan Bulletin. Given at Rome, in the headquarters of the Vicariate, June 28, I952. Clement Cardinal Vicar D. Vincent Frazzano, Vice Chancellor X T' 4 Rl Xb-L 2 A His Eminence Edward Cardinal Mooney Archbishop of Detroit The editors of the Eagle have done well to make the story of Archbishop Cieplak the theme of their l955 Yearbook. For the life of this saintly priest and bishop is an inspiring example of apostolic devotion. He spent 46 years of his priestly life from l878 to i924 in serving the Catholics scattered over the wide reaches of the Russian Empire. Consecrated Auxiliary Bishop of Mohilev in l908 he im- mediately sei' out upon a visitation of the Catholic political exiles in the vast region between the Ural Mountains and Vladivostok. His missionary travels on that occasion and in the following years recall the apostolic journeys of St. Paul-iust as so many features of his life can be described in the terms that St. Paul uses to tell his own story. like St. Paul he knew what it was to be an innocent pris- oner, a defendant in a rigged trial, a man condemned to death, Like St. Paul he knew how to be filled and how to be hungry how to have abundance and to sufler want. Most ot' all, like St. Paul he knew how to do all things in Christ Who was his strength. It is for this reason that the cause of his beatification has been formally intro- duced in the Sacred Congregation of Rites in Rome. Particularly in our days it is worthy of note that Arch- bishop Cieplak stands in the forefront of that gallant line of bishops, priests, sisters and laymen and women who in our own day have so heroicly borne witness to the sovereignty of God and the dignity of man against the force and cun- nfng of communist brutality. Stepinac, Mindzenty, Wys- zynski, Beran-who stand out on account of their high station-are household words today across the Catholic world as Cieplak was thirty years ago. For like Cieplak they have-before the eyes of all the world-counted truth and faith and loyalty to God dearer than life itself. This timely retelling of the story of Archbishop Cieplak should inspire all ot us to keep in mind these living martyrs of to- day and to be instant in prayer that, for the liberation of the Catholic countries they represent, their faith may in the end prevail against Godless tyranny. l pray, too, that the cause of Archbishop Cieplak's bea- titication may make rapid progress as l invoke God's bless- ing on the effort made in this yearbook to publicize the story of his edifying life with its glorious final chapter of calm but unflinching resistance to the enemies of God and man.

Ho well the Bishops throughout the world realize the meaning St. Paul expressed in hese inspired words. For it is their responsibility to ordain only those men who att long years of study and training have acquired those virtues which truly transfo them into Alteri Christi. As Christ blessed, taught, and forgave, so must t e Bishops prepare young men to be fit and capa- ble of accomplishing these th' gs which pertain to God. We are thankful and onored that so many of our Ordinaries have placed their complete confidence in he Orchard Lake Seminary and have enrolled their ' ' ' ' f ' three departments.

From this command of Christ flows the right and duty of the Church to further the cause of religion throughout the whole world. With the advent of the Bolshevik revolution in Russia, however, this right and duty have been usurped by totalitarian states and religion has been suppressed. Against the same clenched fist of the Soviet, Archbishop Cieplak labored zealously to keep God alive in the minds of Russian Catholics. Thankfully we can say that such conditions do not exist in the United States where freedom of religion is a basic right of its citi- zens. The Catholic Seminary at Orchard Lake is but one Catholic institution through which religion and religious life are fostered in free America. This would not be possible, however, were it not for the Corporation, composed of mem- bers of the hierarchy and clergy, and prominent professional men, who with foresight and zeal own, direct, and are respon- sible for the existence and development of the Orchard Lake Schools. .,, Rx X lt . l 'Ivy' f it ...av AT' 4 1 ' 1 g. fi Most Reverend Most Reverend Most Reverend John F.

Joseph Zobel Hammond, Indiana BOARD OF TRUSTEES IF AN ORGANIZATION is to endure, its lead- ers should be men of determination and perseverance. They must be determined to discover means to achieve the end for which they strive and they must persevere in accomplishing that end. ln a world where liberty is waning and freedom is being suppressed, Christian lead- ers of such character are in great demand. They are the solid pillars upon which rests Christian society. Orchard Lake can proudly boast that the members of its Board of Trustees are individuals of such quality, who are responsible for the maintenance of Orchard Lake on a sound financial basis and for the progress of its academic program. Because as edu- cators they realize that the chief aim of American Cath- olic education is to prepare young Catholic gentlemen to take their place in our secular and Godless society, all their efforts are channeled toward the realization of the words of Archbishop Cieplak: The Orchard Lake Seminary is the favorite of the American Polonia, the source for a Polish-American intelligentsia. .3 -of ,,.wT'lii .t ' it wit, 3 His Eminence Edward Cardinal Mooney Chairman 1 E 5 li. if 5 ae' T l 1 Walter Rdiycki Rt.

The Alumni's gift to BishopfAlumnus John Krdl of Cleveland was a valu- able Madonna trom the Galleries of Mr. Joseph de Grimme. Three hundred prominent men from Metropolitan Detroit attend- ed the second annual Founder's Dinner at Orchard Lake. Each year the Alumni ranks are replenished by the graduating class, enthusiastic workers eager to share the burden with their new brethren, and iustly so, for the task at hand is of such magnitude, the return to be made is so great, that only with the continued and com- bined effort of every son can the Alumni enter- tain the hope of repaying in full their Alma Mater, the Orchard Lake Schools. INDIANA' ELE6' nwwf siqytai .,,. The enthusiasm ot the Indiana Chapter can be gauged by the spirit displayed at the last con vention. Messrs. W. Rdiycki, S. Ziemba and S. Milewski with Fr. F. Ba- noszak formed the core of the committee of titty which made the 1954 Founder's Dinner the big event of the year for the Detroit District. Pope Pius Xl said that the woman's essential mission in the world is to be for mankind a living example of the spirit of total dedication to God. Her practical sense and her gift for detail, her spirit of sacrifice and self-surrender, of love and selfless devotion, must help her to know, love, and serve her Creator. She is to realize this ideal not only through her home life but also through an active participation in social and organiza- tional enterprises. And it is precisely because the Ladies Auxiliary of the Orchard Lake Sem- inary is composed of women who fully under- THE LADIES AUXILIARY stand their obligations that it has been such an important aid to the Schools for the past fifteen years. These average American women of Po- lish descent have shown unflinchingly a tender- ness and love which has grown with time in depth and intensity. To them the students are grateful for so many of the material improvements of the residence, class, and dining halls. Always vig- ilant, ever aware of some particular need, the Ladies Auxiliary adds the necessary feminine touch to the man's world of the Orchard Lake Schools. i l The 1954 pilgrimage to the Orchard Lake Grotto sponsored annually by the Ladies Auxiliary drew over 4,000 persons.

Begun fifteen years ago as a source of continuous income for the academic bet- terment of the three departments, the Foun- dation has rendered fitting and praiseworthy honor to the self-sacrificing and visionary pioneer-Father Joseph Dabrowski. Through the Foundation's patronage of more than one hundred thousand dollars, significant manu- scripts received publication, the library was enriched, the science laboratories' facilities were improved, and the various campus student publications received aid. Truly, this organization is a part of the foundation, as was Father Dgbrowski, of the lasting spirit of our Orchard Lake Schools. 'hx .-' THE FRIENDS OF THE SEMINARY In a democracy it is the little man who counts. Every individual has equal voice in his gov- ernment. On the foundation of millions of such little men believing in the American ideals of liberty and iustice and equality has been built the mighty fortress of America's power. ln a like manner, the Orchard Lake Seminary has been building for itself for the past ten years precisely such a foundation, a new founda- tion, which will serve to support it for years to come. And this is the Friends of the Orchard Lake Sem- inary -many little people who with their small gifts sent annually by mail to the Seminary in answer to its letter of appeal make possible the continuation and perpetuation of the noble ideals and purposes of the Orchard Lake Schools.

But I tear none of these things and neither do I count my life more precious than myself, so that I may consummate my course and the ministry of the world which I received from the Lord Jesus. These are the words St. Paul used to foretell the suffering and persecution he would have to endure for the cause of Christ and the salvation ot souls. What Christ expected ot St. Paul then, He expects of every priest today, especially in these days ot Godless Communism. The cour- age of Si: Paul, the bravery of Archbishop Cieplak must be the rule of the day tor the modern priest. lt is the true priest, who in follow, ing the example of the High Priest, gives himself in all places and at all times to all men for the salvation of their souls.

By means of it, the youth develops and perfects his natural abilities in co-ordinating them with the ultimate end of man-God. The youth is trained spiritually, mentally, and physically forthe world and the challenge that it presents. He is educated for his maximum benefit and the well-being of human society at large. To this St. Mary's adds a distinctive flavor of its own, by proportionately harmonizing the student's Catholic-American culture with his Polish heritage, to make the student a complete, mature, and well educated, useful member of society.

He was a per- severing student and a skilled athlete in the shot put ring. His words of wisdom made him the most respected man ofthe class. n our confused modern times, when secularism, self- ishness, and paganism have revived and infiltrated into every walk of life, men of sound character are greatly needed not only to ofter resistance to these ungodly monsters but also by positive Christian living to reconstruct the right order of things in the world. St. Mary's Preparatory offers students the spiritual, moral, intellectual, cultural, and physical training which go into the making of sound character. To give the world young men in whom such character is formed is the desire ot the Orchard Lake Schools. FR. JOSEPH KUBIK ClassMaster G R A D U A T E S ROBERT S.

CLASS HISTORY In September of l95l, we the mem- bers of the class of '55, began our long iourney over the rough waters of high school in the good old ship, St. Mary's of Orchard Lake. Sixty of us bunked down in Noah's Ark. We were all as green as sea weed to the routines of St. Mary's, but with Father Gabalski steering our course we had no fears about rough weather. We spent the first two weeks in a haze, and the light of day broke through only little by little. The campus then became a familiar sight, friendships were formed and professors were beginning to be taken for granted. Football season was well in progress and as soon as it ended basketball season started. lt was only a matter of weeks when the first heavy snow-fall turned our busy little minds to thoughts of Christmas and home. Upon our return in January from a ioyous vaca- tion we quickly settled down to prepare for semes- ter examinations. With exams out of the way and our heart beat back to normal, we had plenty of time for hockey, snowball fights, and walks through the dazzling countryside. By Easter the ice on the lake was completely melted and as soon as the first warm breezes began to blow, softballs, volley balls, and tennis rackets were taken out of winter storage and put to good use. Then the colorful month of May came bring- ing, along with its fragrant blossoms, the annual Field Day and weeks of earnest study for final ex- aminations. On Commencement Day we gladly abandoned ship, happily ending the first year's journey. Returning to the Ark from what seemed like a brief recess we were typical sophomores: loud, lumpy and full of fun. This exuberance was soon tapered, however, by the steady grind of a much tougher curriculum. Yet, all was not work. The class was well represented on the great football team of '52 as well as on the Junior Reserve bas- ketball team. How well we remember that day in late Novem- ber when we took over the government of the Ark. What a time that was! When the day finally ended it was the consensus of opinion that Fr. Ga- balski did a much better iob alone. The beauties and solemnities of the Christmas and Easter seasons passed in rapid succession. Not long afterwards the advent of spring found many sophomores out on the cinder track and on the hardball diamonds stretching their fast growing limbs. But these bright days were quickly darkened by the fast approaching clouds of June examina- tions. The expected storm turned out to be a mild sun shower which ended our second iourney with a rainbow promising fair weather for the future. lt wasn't long before the future became the pres- ent, September of l953. As Juniors we encoun- tered a few changes, the barracks was now our new residence hall lthis meant two men in a room instead of six in a dormitoryl and Fr. Rdiak be- came our new disciplinarian. Besides these changes we ourselves had under- gone a change: as upper classmen we took on new responsibilities and engaged in new activities. At the Christmas party we staged Dragnet Junior for the seniors--a real hit. ln the field of sports our class had an unusually high representation on all the varsity teams. But the most memorable landmark on that third eventful voyage was the reception of our class rings. This, plus the Gaudeamus which we pre- sented for the departing Seniors, gave birth to the longing refrain, Senior Year ahead. Seniors at last! Our last trip! Under the inspir- ing guidance of our new disciplinarian and class master, Fr. Kubik, we set out with hopes of making it the best. Going to Detroit for our class pictures, soliciting ads for the Eagle, successful football and basketball seasons, the Senior outing, track meets and baseball games were like favorable winds speeding us on to graduation. This was the best year of our stay at St. Mary's and we are grate- fully thankful for the innumerable fruits, spiritual, intellectual, and physical, that we have reaped from so gracious a benefactress. One voyage is overianother now awaits us, as we mutually wish ourselves: Bon voyage! I. Higl 2. No 3.

T l CLASS Pnopl-lEcY Minutes taken at the 25 year class reunion. It was June 5, 1980, 25 years to the date of graduation, when the High School class of i955 reunited at its Alma Mater, St. Mary's of Or- chard Lake. The Class president, Donald Horka, called the assembly to order and asked secretary Robert Demski to call the roll. Mr. Horka then ad- dressed the reunion, bringing back many happy thoughts of the spirit of St. Mary's and the gay and gala times spent on her campus. After the address each member of the class gave a brief resume of his own life during the past 25 years. Since there was now a number of clergymen in the class, they were the first to speak. Richard Kapolka, the highest ranking cleric, expounded on the fact that he was the first priest in the history of the Harlem Globe Trotters to be a member of the team. All he really wanted was a free trip to Rome but once he was there he stayed and became Pope Richard the first. The halls rang with glee when Thomas Skotek described how he had a tough time becoming Arch- bishop of Philadelphia. lHe has the distinction of being the shortest man in the entire hierarchy of the Church.i Amid chokes and coughs Peter Ziebron'con- tinued to tell that upon his ordination he was named athletic director at St. Mary's but refused the position in favor of Pope Richard's offer to direct sports at the Vatican. The only priest author present was Donald Horka. His first and last assignment was to his home town parish in Bronson. lt was here, he said, that he wrote the best seller Advantages in the Priesthood Over Sports Reporting. ln his loud and booming voice Daniel Lazowski enumerated the many offers from professional football clubs which he turned down to become a priest. lHe was assigned to Milwaukee.l After giving a demonstration in the latest hog calls, Kenneth Zettel informed us that he was appointed pastor in his home parish in West Branch, and be- cause of his many activities supporting the farmer, he was appointed chairman of the Apostolate of the Farmer-Priest. No one would have guessed it but Stanley Wiercioch was named head of the Detroit Archdiocesan Development Fund. Father said this position was the result of his love for the color green. All were very disappointed when Kenneth Lerczak did not speak. He couldn't because he was per- manently indisposed, he ioined the Trappists. Following the clergy were the professors, each one of whom briefly addressed the reunion. The first rep- resentative of this profession was Robert Demski. In his concise and clear style, Bob simply presented the facts as they were: after studying at such well known universities as Michigan State, Michigan and Notre Dame, he returned to Orchard Lake to become chem- istry professor. Vincent Pernicki, also a professor, made known his secret of success. He said that as a trigonometrician he became famous when he trisected an angle with only a compass and a straight edge. Presently, he is professor of trigonometry at St. Mary's High School. The assembly was amazed when Patrick Ryan narrated in the purest Polish how he continued studying Polish at St. Mary's after High School and is now considered the foremost authority on Polish an- cestry. With boisterous and beefy bellowings Bernard Sokolowski boasted that he received his B.S. Degree at the University of Pittsburgh and then became a professor at St. Mary's College. Nevertheless, all the intellectuals were not profes- sors: politicians were not lacking in the company of illustrious men. Boguslaw Buzun declared that on his return to Poland he ioined the underground and is at present its leader. Probably the most famous of all the men in the political field is William Dobrzechowski, who interested us with his experiences as a member of the United Nations representing Poland. llt is said that he financed Buzun's underground activities.l lt was strange to hear from Ronald Fedorowicz that even after attending Secret Service school he continued to be Senator Dobrzechowski's special bodyguard. Ed- ward Pawlowski nearly brought the house down when he informed us that he was advisor to Senator Dobrzechowski and bodyguard to the bodyguard of the Senator. ln the lengthy resume of his past life, Richard Wolak recollected his first interest in politics and expounded on the fact which eventually led to 5 'C I . gi CLASS PROPHECY his becoming Mayor of Hamtramck. He made clear, however, that without the backing of the good senator he never would have gotten his office. Joseph Smie- horowski came to the reunion incognito. As a pre- cautionary measure he didn't say much since he is the top ranking spy for the Polish Underground. With so many priests, teachers and politicians, it is not surprising that there were so few business men in the class. When Edward Pilarski took his turn to speak there was a tremendous ovation. Ed rambled on about the large bus line of which he is the head. lt is known in America as the Peeps Bus Line. Law- rence Sobczak then told us that it was only after his reiection by the Air Force that he started his Flyers Club. He is now giving Mr. Pilarski competition in the transportation business. lt was curious to hear how Jerome Woiey became a success. He empha- sized the fact that after graduation he realized that he could have done much better with a good alarm clock so he organized the Woiey Clock Co. and im- mediately became famous for his clocks with different rings. Edward Krisak briefed us on his struggles at Fordham, where he finally became a pharmacist. Presently he owns a chain of drive-in drug stores spread throughout the world. More on the intellec- tual side is the career of Eugene Baranowski. He promulgated the already-known fact that he is the editor of that famous labor paper, The Pittsburgh Steeler. All cheered William Blaskovich for the tribute he paid to his Alma Mater. On his return to California he became Hollywood's top director chiefly through his efforts in his biggest hit, My Stay at Orchard Lake. After the business men finished their talks, those who had made careers in the field of athletics were asked to say a few words. The first sports-man to talk was Thomas Kafizsz. He gave a few highlights of his All-American years i957 and i958 at Ohio State University. After college he was the first draft choice of the Detroit Lions with whom he played for ten years. llt was reported that he made 550,000 per year.l Immediately after Tom finished speaking, Walter Bogucki lumped on to stage proving to one and all that he still had the spring that made him a member of the U.S. Olympic hurdling teams in i960- 64-68-72. As was expected, since he is one of Amer- ica's foremost authorities on the act of hurdling, Wal- ter expounded on his subiect quite profusely. Luckily John Kuida didn't have much to say. He simply gave us a few words on physical culture and men- tioned the fact that he was recently named Mr, Muscles of the American Polonia. Everyone iumped with ioy when Leonard Mardeusz announced his new appointment. From one time student-manager he has climbed the ladder of success to assistant coach of the Junior Reserves. The remainder of the illustrious class of 55 could not be limited to any specific category such as the business men and the ecclesiastics. Nevertheless, these men did become prominent in their own fields. When Thomas Gorzen'ski was called upon to speak he continued urging the advantages of studying Polish at St. Mary's. lNo wonder he became the most famous Polish orator in the United States.l John Waluk, who still resides in New Britain, Connecticut, mentioned the fact that for the past ten years he has been the president of the Polish Roman Catholic Union. In constant association with John Waluk is Francis Za- wadzki, who told us that for the past ten years he has served as vice-president of the P.R.C.U. and that he lives with Mr. Waluk. Robert Werzynski held our interest by relating the events which led to his writing the book, Jan Dfugosz, Most Famous Polish King, and how that book brought him renown as an author. The last, but certainly not least, member of this dis- tinguished class called upon for a few words was Richard Lipka. Ali knew Dick was one of the top lead- ers of the laity in Catholic Action, so when he spoke on that subject no one was surprised. Upon the com- pletion of Mr. Lipka's talk everyone applauded long and loud for one and all. The chairman called the reunion to order. He thanked all members for their interesting talks. After the discussion of new business was finished he voiced his hope of another reunion in twenty-five years. Thereupon Mr. Skotek moved that the meeting be closed. Thomas Gorzen'ski seconded the motion. The meeting was then closed with a prayer. June 5, i980 Recording Secretary 1. The scenic beauty of Apple Islond on Orchard Lake. 2.

Walter Ziemba Assistant Faculty Advisor 3 ' E A 4' Fr Edwin Szczygief lawrence Musinski Donald Horlra Robert Demski Advertising Photography Assistant Editor Assistant Business Manager If the Eagle is to carry its message with success, there must be harmony in giving it that message to carry. Each departmental staff-editorial, business, photography, continuity, activities, sports, copy, research, has its own part in making the whole, and all are complementary to each other. Cooperative and efficient are the only words that can describe the efforts of the '55 Eagle Staff. Humbly viewing their labors, there rises a hope in each member oi' the Staff that the feelings of satisfaction and finality, ex- perienced after a iob well done, will not be in vain. Most everyone has experi- enced the sense of satisfaction and finality that comes when a job begun becomes a iob well done. This feeling of complacency increases in proportion to the nature and nobility of the work itself and the overall harmony of its execution. From a iournalistic viewpoint or, tor that matter, from any view point, it must be admitted that publishing a year book is no mean task. Then, taking into con- sideration the fact that most of the members of the Eagle Staff never be- fore had seen a layout or typed copy for publication, publishing a year book becomes an even greater endeavor. Fortunately the theme of the Eagle gives an added incentive for creative work over and above that of merely preserving for the future the campus activities, names, and faces of a year past. lt gives the Eagle a message to carry. The Eagle then is not like an empty antique vase that is only looked at and admired but like a crystal foun- tain forever spouting cool water that will refresh all who drink from it. lt not only contains something but also gives something. That something which the Eagle is giving this year is the life and accomplishments of the Servant of God, Archbishop John Cieplak, inthe hope that someday he may be called Q Saint, High School General Staff: K.

Just as people grow mellow with age, so does our Campus, in the waning months of the year, assume o serene aspect of subdued beauty. Vivid are the various hues accentuating the autumnal splendor of our landscape. Amidst a perfect blend of gold and auburn, red and brown, rust and sand, the new and old students of the Orchard Lake Schools strive, as the Fall- term ensues, to attain their ideal of Christian perfection. The first weeks of school hold a certain novelty-new living quarters, new courses, different professors, new faces, and new friends. Once things are adiusted, the annual retreat begins.

Early in December God's wonderland of win- ter arrives on the St. Mary's Campus.

The holy season of tent, with its many fast days and penances, acts as a spiritual dynamo generating powerful graces that brighten and enrich the soul for the reception of the Risen Christ on the glorious feast of Easter. May's perfume-filled rosebuds which deck the altars of Our Blessed Mother are the visible ex- pression of the thousands of love-laden rosaries recited in her honor. Club rooms and recreation halls are abandoned in favor ofthe fresh and in- vigorating exercises of the baseball diamond, cinder tracks, the tennis court and the diving board. Setting the tempo for the more bustling activities are the lively melodies of the Spring Concert which linger on long after the grand finale. Amid all this the wise student finds time to refresh his memory by serious review in prep- aration for comprehensive and final examina- tions. And most important of all spring brings graduation for the Seniors and vacation for everyone else. 1 Archbishop Joseph Hurley of St. Augustine, Florida, visited Orchard Lake last spring.

The T954-55 Eaglets were left without the services of the entire startinq tive and three very capable substi tutes who battled for the league diadem in the previous season's championship contest. In September, Fr. J. Rakoczy, well remembered for his athletic prowess and achievements ol past years, was appointed the Athletic Director and also assumed the duties of basketball coach, Fr, Johns efficient methods speak for themselves, as he continued to build like Fr, J. Gabalski, his predecessor, a sound fundamental foundation and the surging desire to win in the luture members ol the varsity and reserve squads. Despite the unpromising situation, Fr. J. Rakoczy and assistant coach Al Kis'luk proceeded with undaunted success the rebuilding for the coming season. The T954-55 hardwood enthusiasts lacked the cxperience, but their foundation in fundamentals enabled Fr. Rakoczy to make amazing and successtul progress, and develop an expected losing-season-team into a real title contender in the Catholic League and a District Champion in the State Tournament. A well coached, but under-rated Eaglet squad inaugurated the season an Dec. 7, l954, as hosts to 5-. Stanislaus.

Resuming play alter the holidays, the Polish Eaglets, led by the sharp-shooting Vince Pernicki, romped to tive straight victories on the lakeside court. The last home encounter resulted in a disas trous 49 44 upset at the hands of St. Michaels The Eaglels rebounded with a string ot victories to end regular season play with a very impressive ll-2 record. ln a warm-up for the State Tournament the Varsity added a pair ot non-league victories as they turned back Sweetest Heart 59-36, and first Division St. Ladislaus 57-53. The Eaglets, paced by Ted Kopacki, continued their winning habits in the State Tournament, downing Walled Lake 45 43 and Northville 69-61 to capture the District Title. A strong Troy team dropped bt.

RESERVES The Junior Varsity claims the distinction of being the most constant winner on the St. Mary's campus. Their successful habits have enabled them to completely dominate the top rung of the championship ladder in many recent years. Numerous new faces donned the Red and White for the 1954-55 season, but the players had no intention of relinquishing their knack for winning games, nor the Second Division Title which they were to defend in the new season. Captain Gerald Leszczynski, L. Mallat, P. Madelans, S. Mai- ewski, and B. Masztakowski baflied the opposing teams with their tricky patterns and various styles of play. After succumb- ing to a tall St. Stanislaus team in the non-league season opener, the young Eaglets, with intensified determination, sailed smoothly to ll victories in their next 12 starts and a tie for the Championship with St. Michael's. St. Mary's bid for the ex- clusive league title resulted in a close 45-43 defeat at the hands of St. Michael's. The Reserve Squad finished the season with a laudable 13-3 record and added another winning season to their illustrious record.

Behind the three-hit pitching of Pete Ziebron', St. Mary's gained a 2-l victory over the Down- River nine. St. Clement, a new comer to the league, re- ceived its first taste of St. Mary's strength as they fell prey to the one-hit pitching of Ziebron'and the power of Balazy, Kopacki, and Nebus, each of whom collected two hits apiece.

It is in this program that the competitive spirit of the student has its opportunity to be manifested. Football tussles in the fall, basketball games in the win- ter, and baseball games in the spring are always familiar sights on the campus of St. Mary's. The High School teams are chosen on an equal basis with each team composed of members of the four classes. Each sport is brought to an end by the ever popular Championship Game, in which the first place teams vie with each other for the intramural trophy. A recent addition to the intramural program is the present- ing of the Tin Can Trophy to the champions of the basketball court of the High School. Rainy days are never gloomy at St. Mary's, for it is on these days that there are heard the sound of the ping- pong paddle and the familiar Eight ball in the side pocket! Wherever silence reigns in the recreation room, one can be sure that a chess or checker contest is in progress. And the frozen lake at St. Mary's pro- vides a natural rink for the lovers of hockey. The College and Seminary Departments each have their respective leagues in Football, Basketball, and Base- ball. Every member of these departments is encouraged to take an active part in the intramural program. The clash of the All Stars in both the college and seminary is truly a contest highlighted by skill and physical fitness. The introduction of volley ball into the program of the Seminary department has found numerous enthusiasts and followers to make this sport truly outstanding.

INTRODUCTION Every century is a century of conversion. Every century has its great missionaries who earry the cross of Christ and its lessons of love of Cod and love of neighhor to the weak, the fallen-away, the unhelieving, the ignorant. John Cieplak was a missionary of his own Century-living many years he- lore his time. like another John the Baptist Hmaking straight the way of the Lordf, pav- ing the way for the coming of Christ into the spiritual wilderness of a forhidding eountry --Russia. The first John has Church for almost two Servant of God 1 Apostle of Russia By the providence of Cod, John Cieplak was sent to Russia to wage war with Satan, to defend the cause of Christ and His Church, to bring to men the life of God, the strength of His sacraments, the consolation of His teachings, the succor of His love, the graces of His bounty, and the love of His Heart. More than two-thirds of his life was spent in the country of the Czarists and the Soviets, patiently bearing every persecution, every ad- versity, every ignominy. On June 28, 1952, in the city of Rome, the first step toward his eventual canonization was taken with the initiation of the informa- tive process in the cause for the study of the holiness of his life. The decree of his Emi- nence Clement Cardinal Micara, Vicar Gen- eral of his Holiness for the City and district of Rome and Pro-Prefect for the Sacred Con- gregation of Rites, officially began the col- lecting of his writings for investigation and announced to the world that Rome was con- sidering his canonization. The paradox of Cieplak's life continues in the cause for his beatification, for it was ini- tiated in Rome, hundreds of miles from where he was born, lived, labored, and was sen- tenced to die. Under ordinary circumstances it should have begun in Poland or Russia where records and witnesses would be readily available, but the Iron Curtain hangs as a forbidding sentry in the face of the Weste1'n World. And the paradox continues in the fact that the cause presently is receiving its most important impetus and publicity in the United States, where he spent but three months. The Church permits the title Servant of Godv to be conferred upon an individual who dies in the odor of sanctity and who during his lifetime displayed heroic virtues. The life of Archbishop Cieplak is like a beautiful musical composition, a symphony of many themes-of virtues and ideals, of persecu- tion and suffering, of Apostolic labor and un- selfish dedication, of strength, of meekness, of zeal and fearlessness, of patience, patriotism and holiness. He lived in an age of revolu- tion and upheaval, when the most momentous forces of the world were resolving themselves in the largest country on earth. Amidst faith- lessness, his duty was to fortify the faith, amidst Godlessness, his obligation was to teach about Cod, amidst hate, evil, irreligion, he was to sow love, good, holiness. ln defense of freedom and Codis law he sacrified his life -a monument of sanctity upon which we gaze today and which we admire for its many virtues. The life of John Cieplak is an extremely interesting one because his sanctity was achieved not in a desert, nor a monastery, not in a cloister, nor even a private home, it was achieved in the world, filled with temptations, threats, evil men, guile, politics, deceit, and intrigue. His life is interesting because it is filled with action, adventure, danger, pursuit, trials, sentence, prison, hunger, and torture. riff X ,:- 'xiii' J f O 6 WH4 i tg M' e is aifft ll IQ I . ,Q I lg il x W A sg Jr 1 1-' uvga:dIl:EnGc1it?gripf:lEEErp::algIg X ring efforts at expressing s love of God. Providence uses men to achieve its ends. The need of the hour is the will of Godf' Cod provides the saints that the world needs at the hour that it needs them. The world, the Church, Russia-these needed John Cieplak. Like Abraham took Isaac, so C-od took this servant and sacrified him on the Altar of Conversion. CHILDHOOD John Baptist Cieplak was born on August 17, 1857, in Dabrowa Gdrnicza, Diocese of Kielce, in Eastern Poland. His father Hya- cinth was a coal miner, while his mother four his grandmother's brother, Father John Bugajski, pastor of a parish in Krasocin, took him into his rectory where he remained for the next eight years, spending his time in study, serving Mass, and doing household chores. Father Bugajski was good to him out of gratitude to the youth's mother who had contributed financially to his becoming a priest. His formative training and ele- mentary education came from the good ex- ample of the priest-uncle. His first experi- ence with Czarist oflicials came as he witnes- sed the arrest of Father Bugajski. As they led the patriotic priest out of the rectory, little - e it 1 A lil- :ww -: H -r ' A 'I' 'f l C -fi 1 A ?-WS. s A If , f gi Julia was a simple peasant woman. He was baptised in the parish church at Bedzin on August 23rd. When he was a little over two his mother died at the birth of his brother An- thony on December 21, 1859. She was but 24 years old. The custody of the young lad was given to his maternal grandmother, Cath- erine Bugajski, a peasant woman of noble heart and upright character, who took care of him for two years. He was very attached to her, and she lamented that she was unable to give him the care and the comforts the child needed. It was she who taught him his pray- ers and heard his first stuttering efforts at ex- pressing his love of Cod. Later in life he spoke of her as a simple woman but of a generous and noble heart. When he was As the Czarist soldiers led Fr. Bugajski out of the Rec- tory, little John instinctively snatched at the priest's cas- sock for protection, but was cast aside by the gruff soldiers. John instinctively snatched at the priest's cas- sock for protection but was cast aside by the gruff soldiers. He must have long remem- bered this incident and the words the priest spoke to him: Pray for me, because the power of Cod is mightier than any human might. During the uncle's fortunately brief absence, his friend, Father Valentine Khaun, took care of the lad. YCUTH In Kielce, where John attended high school from 1869 to 1873, he lived with the Cathed- ral organist, Mr. Grabowski, and in this way came to know well the Episcopal ceremonies and vestments. During these days he took advantage of every opportunity for study and was an edifying example by his good behavior and piety. Known to be jolly, he radiated happiness in his very countenance. February 15, 1873, must have indeed been a sad day for John. It was on this day that Father Bugajski died. Henceforth he was to be taken care of by Father Khaun, whom he knew well, saw often at the rectory, and loved very much. SEMINARY AT KIELCE In September of that year, at the age of 16, he entered the seminary at Kielce. The cost of his education was covered by the good will offerings of the people of Krasocin. To win the support of this community he must have distinguished himself with an exemplary life. This gesture of the people was a public pro- fession of faith in his worthiness of their hard earned money and the solidity of their investment. To the people of Krasocin he was a second St. Stanislaus Kostka. At the seminary he was one of the best stu- dents, diligent in study, virtuous, industrious, humble, and obedient, and his good example caught the attention of his professors. When one day during a vacation he consulted with Father Khaun about his vocation to the priest- hood, the friendly priest advised him to go before the Tabernacle of Christ and there dis- cover the answer. .lohn's humility made him feel that the priesthood was too high, too noble, and too honorable a calling for him. SEMINARY IN PETERSBURG After spending four years in the seminary at Kielce he was sent to the Divinity Academ in Petersburg for further studies. He N tered the Academy, which was an extens i of the School of Theology of Wilno, in ' fall of 1878. V His first interview with the then Recto of the Seminary and later Archbishop of ghilev, Monsignor Simon Kozlowski, ust have made a lasting impression on hi -g,As Cieplak? fliterally, 'one who is Well, it's good you're a 'Cieplak' be use it's cold here. You will have to keep swarm. At the Academy John gained recognition for his intelligence, exemplary character, progress in studies, as well as virtuous and pious life. His vocation to the priesthood grew stronger with each passing year, and he tried as best he could most perfectly to pre- pare himself intellectually and spiritually for his calling. He was especially noted for a deep piety, fidelity in prayer, frequent recep- tion of the Sacraments, and an eagerness for meditation. In all of this he was an admir- able example to his fellow seminarians. His professors said of him: He studied every- thing and loved, everything in the light of faith. ORDINATION Three years of study at Petersburg brought him a licentiate degree in Sacred Theology and the great day of his ordination. In the summer of 1881 he made three retreats, one each for Sub-deaconate, Diaconate, and Priest- hood. On July 24-, he was ordained a priest by the Most Reverend Thomas Kulinski. Father John was then 23 years old. . , - fini 1' so MY, A g f 'ff l f-f. - f .

N .lohn Cieplak attended the High School at Kielce where he was an edifying example through his good behavior and piety. FIRST MASS Joy reigned supreme in his home town of Dabrowa Cdrnicza when on August 15th, the feast of Our Lady,s Assumption, the newly- ordained offered his first Mass for the people in whose midst he had been born and had spent his youth. One of their own had been invited by Cod to follow in His footsteps. He was then one of them-he belonged to them. Soon he would be working among them. PROFESSOR Providence, however, would have it other- wise. After spending one more year at study in the Divinity Academy, he received his Mas- ter of Theology degree and was selected to teach as a member of the faculty at his Alma Mater. These early days of his Priesthood were already marked by a great fidelity in fulfilling the duties and obligations of his sacred calling. At the Seminary he first taught Biblical Archeology and Scripture, then Liturgy and Ecclesiastical Chant, and finally Dogmatic and Moral Theology. He spent 26 years here as a teacher, disciplinarian, librarian, and administrator. As an educator he was highly esteemed by his superiors, fellow teachers, and students who were full of praise and grat- itude for the spiritual and intellectual infor- mation he had afforded them. He was known always to be tactful, kind, affable, and pru- dent. He was popular with the youth and many came to him for spiritual counsel. As a confessor he was patient, zealous, and mild. In his heart he felt a spiritual obligation of protection and care for his youthful students. He was for them their beloved Father, whose counsel they sought, whose love they shared, and from whose prudence and wis- dom they profited. For a time during this period he fulfilled with the same ardor his duties as educator and retreat master in the St. Casimir and St. Catherine High Schools in Petersburg. He also served as Chaplain to the Sisters of Mary, taught Religion at their schools and at their summer camps. As a confessor he was considered very learned and exceptionally virtuous. The orphans and poor were the ob- ject of his special love and concern, and they called him our beloved Father. In 1900, at the age of 43, he received the title of Honorary Canon of Kielce, and a year later the special honor of Doctor of Theology was bestowed upon him in recognition of his academic efforts. ln 1903 he became a Canon of the Kielce chapter and a member of the Roman Catholic College in Petersburg. BISHOP Father ,lohn Cieplak's 26 years of Sem- inary teaching were rewarded by his eleva- tion to the Episcopacy by St. Pius X. On June 16, 1908, came news that Canon Cie- plak was appointed Titular Bishop of Everi- an, Suffragan Bishop of Moghilev and Aux- iliary to Archbishop Wnukowski. The full- ness of' the priesthood was conferred upon him in a consecration at St. Catherine's Church in Petersburg on December 7, 1908. He was then fifty-one. ln the Papal Bull of appointment, St. Pius emphasized the accomplishments and out- standing qualities of mind and heart as well as the priestly virtues possessed by Father Cieplak. The new office brought new energy into the life of the Servant of God. With even greater dedication, deeper humility, and more intense sacrifice he gave himself up to his new duties and obligations. Work in the diocese was difficult because of the area to be served, the lack of organization and subsidi- ary administration fthere were few strict par- ishes and delineated Deaneriesj, the special problems which existed, the variety of na- tionalities, and the pressing need for social work. In truly Pauline fashion he became all things to all menf, The Episcopal hon- or did not change him: he remained as al- ways, sincere, approachable, simple, and affable. The Latin Rite Diocese of Moghilev was the largest in the world. It covered all of European and Asiatic Russia, an area of more than five and a half million square miles. According to the diocesan sta- tistics for 1910 the Archdio- cese had 28 deaneries, 245 parish churches, 399 priests, and over a million Catholics. This was the gigantic vineyard in which Cieplak labored, sac- rificed, and lived in holiness. This was the scattered flock whose saintly .shepherd he was for fifteen years. SIBERIA There was at this time a pressing need for an official visitation by the Ordinary of the 65 Catholic settlements strewn widely over the vast ex- panses of Siberia. Archbishop Wnukowski had made plans for such a pastoral trip, but after sending notice of his coming, he became ill and was forced to send Bishop Cieplak in his stead. The Servant of God left - Petersburg for Siberia on April 17, 1909. This was a history-making trip because 17 million inhabitants of the area about 250,- 000 were Catholics, the majority exiles from their homelands. In the five months that Bishop Cieplak toured Siberia, he visited 65 Catholic settle- ments: 35 Churches, 14 Chapels, and 20 houses of prayer. He conferred with 40 pa- rochial priests and 1 chaplain, confirmed 21,408 faithful. His trip carried him from the Urals to the border of Japan, to Vladi- vostok and the island of Sachalin. He was most thorough in all that he did during this apostolic visit. Everywhere he stayed as long as possible, investigated everything, strength- ened the spirit of the people, often deviated from the main route to make personal visits, F7 ,Tift 4 NL: Q' f EN 1 i .yt l i 512.13799 '22 , . ,, at - sf, Q A T- L In l f 5 .

He encour- ' aged the forming of St. Vincent de Patil Societies. whose president he himself was, and which were approved hy the government. Ilis pastoral solicitude extended even to the Uissidents and to the pagans. While on this visitation, he received by telegram the per- sonal blessings of the Holy Father. According to Bishop Cicplak, who returned to lVIoscow on September 2lst, the I.atin Rite Catholics needed many things: a lVIissiona1'y Congregation, more churches, parochial schools. orphanages, charitable institutions under the direction of Sisters, a new diocese, more priests, and government support of the priests. Vlfithout these the faithful would be lost to the Church. Towards the attainment of these goals the saintly Bishop worked to the very last day of his stay in the land of his apostolic labors. OTHER EPISCOPAI. VISITATIONS During the next two years he conducted two other episcopal visitations. Both of these met with much disfavor on the part of the government. The first. which began on ,lime 3, 1910, took him into Vllhite Russia. I-Iis great zeal, untiring efforts. and unusual influence. created a distrust and fear in the poliee who were frequently witnesses of great spiritual rejuvenation in the parish elnirehes of their cities. After two and a half months of ministration to the faithful. the Rishop was not allowed to proceed any farther. and on August 16th hc returned to Petershu rg. On September 8. l9ll. he began a visita- tion to Central Russia which. however. did not last very long. At all times he was under the surveillance of Russian Police. who suspected him of anti-government activity. The canon- ical visit of that time was efpiivalent to our uparochial missionv or 'cretreatw today. Ry his personal dynamism Rishop Cieplak was able to stir the people to great fervor. Ilis visits had hut three aims: lj to strengthen the faith of the people in the Truth: 21 to increase their love for Cod: 35 and to solidi- fy their fidelity to the Church. ln all he did his simplicity, goodness. attractiveness, sacri- fice, and dedication were noted hy all the faithful. During this second visit he was reported to the authorities as stirring up a revolutionary spirit among the Poles, and as a result the Russian Orthodox clergy asked the govern- ment to withdraw its approval for his visita- tion. He accepted all this peacefully, for the greater glory of Cod and His Church. Not only was his work suspended. hut he was placed under permanent surveillance of the police and was deprived of his government salary for two years. After this he could do very little episcopal visiting, since the govern- ment would not grant its permission for it. His time was now taken up with work with the St. Vincent de Paul Society, whose ener- getic president, warm friend and faithful protector he was. CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES The holy Bishop was always filling the need of the hourf' His life embraced with equal love all the aspects and facets of the priesthood as he gave to everyone and every- thing his whole being. After the resignation of Archbishop Vincent Kluczynski, who suc- ceeded Archhishop Wlitikowski as Ordinary of Nloghilev, Bishop Cieplak was appointed The Cathedral Church of St. Stanislaus in Wilno, the See to which the Archbishop was appointed but which he never reached. its Administrator, a post he retained to 1917, when Archbishop Edward Ropp was nomin- ated as Ordinary. As the new administrator Bishop Cieplak set himself three goals: lj to live in peace with the government, 2j to support his clergy and people in matters of faith, and 3j to carry on an active social-work program for the needy. His cooperation with and care for the Uniates fCatholics of Eastern Ritesj was gen- erous and benevolent. He was always most favorably disposed toward them, even to the extent of helping in arranging and carrying out the first diocesan Synod for the Russian Catholic Church in Petersburg. Also, at his direction, sermons were regularly delivered and devotions were conducted in the Polish Churches for Uniates in the Russian language. These were diiiicult years. A World War raged. The future and freedom of his moth- erland was in the balance. The country under his jurisdiction was in the midst of an arma- geddon struggle. His own people were en- tangled in the complications of international unrest. ln the face of such adverse and try- ing circumstances the saintly Bishop never diminished his unselfish effort at spiritual ministrations, and continued his charitable and social work for the benefit of all the faithful. At his bidding and under his direction PETERSBURG N there was organized in August of 1916 a War Seminaryv in Saratdw, composed ex- clusively of 24 Polish and Ruthenian war prisoners who had been sent there .by the Russian government after their capture in the war against Austria. The retreat of the Russian Army in 1915 and 1916 before the armies of Germany and Austria brought on the evacuation to Russia of thousands of civilians from Poland and the countries bordering her on the east. Most of these were Catholics, exiles for whom Bish- op Cieplak became guardian, provider, de- fender and father. He encouraged each of his parishes to or- ganize social agencies for the benefit of the needy refugees. With the refugees he plead- ed: '4Be constant in your faith. Tirelessly he worked, for weeks knowing little or no rest. The doors of his residence were always open to all. Whenever possible he would leave his home to visit the institutions and hospitals, to attend meetings, to bless, to dedicate. He mingled with the youth who knew him as their g'Father.', He spoke to the refugees, inquired of their needs, their homes, their parishes. That's our Polish bishopn was the ga-- reaction of love and attachment . e 3 t of him. To the youth he spoke of a ree Pola , and always when he did this, th - hovered in his eye a tear and his voice ecame tender and full of deep feeling. J W U MOSCOW VLADIVOSTOK For five months Bishop Cieplak toured Siberia. His trip carried him from Petersburg to the bor- der of Japan. F1- ww W' i , D In all he did, he never abused his author- ity, was never despotic, never overbearing. At his own risk he sheltered political refugees. He organized relief committees, built orphan- ages, founded schools, constructed temporary hospitals. And yet all his efforts were mark- ed by an innate prudence and tact. BOLSHEVIK REVOLUTION Bishop Cieplak retained his office of ad- ministrator of the Diocese of Moghilev until 1917 when Archbishop Edward Ropp was nominated its Ordinary. This was a surprise, for everyone was certain that Cieplak would receive the honor. After Roppis arrival, it was expected that the Bishop would leave Moghilev, perhaps to become the Bishop of Wilno. Cieplak himself cherished the dream of becoming the Vicar-General of Siberia, so that he could effect the many changes that were necessary in that part of the diocese. But in fact he remained in Petersburg, be- cause his 'chour had not yet come,', because Cod's will for him had not yet been fulfilled, because he had not yet drunk the fullness of his chalice. During the first phase of the Bolshevik Rev- olution the Church enjoyed comparative peace, but with the rise of Lenin to power, freedom of religion soon began to disappear. Atheistic Communism declared open war on religion, especially on the Catholic Church. ARREST OF ARCHBISHOP ROPP Within two years of his nomination to the See of Moghilev, Archbishop Ropp was ar- rested on April 29, 1919, purportedly be- cause of an anti-government pastoral letter he had published. Before leaving for prison, the Archbishop appoined Cieplak adminis- trator of the diocese in his place. The same day Bishop Cieplak received news from Msgr. Achilles Batti, Apostolic Visitor and Papal in if Nuncio to Poland from 1918 to 1921, who later became Pope Piux Xl, of his new honor -the title of Archbishop of Achrides fa for- mer metropoly of Bulgarial. ln his letter of acknowledgement the holy Bishop said: '6This new honor will be a spur for me so that by every human power, with the help.0f Cod, I will serve the Church and will be more closely united by bonds of reverence and love with the Holy Seef, ln the meantime, he made every possible effort to try to free Archbishop Kopp, At one manifestation at St. Catherine's Church de- manding his freedom, he narrowly missed ar- rest himself. His efforts, together with those of others, were rewarded when Ropp was freed on November 17, 1919, and banished from Russia, in exchange for a Communist journalist-prisoner in Poland, Radek-Sobel- son. Difficulties within the country continued to mount. In the midst of the chaos, violence, hunger, and sickness, Archbishop Cieplak continued his struggle against injustice. He knew no rest in his heroic efforts at aid to those who needed it: imprisoned priests, prisoners of war, exiles, the sick, the young, Uniates, German Catholics near the Volga River, young men with vocations. 'Fearless- ly he opposed the efforts of the Soviets to con- fiscate Church properties and funds. The rev- olutionary government couldn't understand his obstinacy. Everyone had succumbed ex- cept the Catholic Church, whose backbone and driving spirit was the saintly Archbishop. To break this spirit of opposition, the Bol- sheviks enacted three decrees which were de- signed to take away the material and spiritual means of life of the Church and thus to kill it. The first required transfer of Church property to the government, the second de- manded the surrender of altar vessels and treasures, the third prohibited any ireligious instruction. Without these factors,ithey felt, the Church could not long endure. A is. With heroic faith and couragelohn Cie- plak refused to conform to the new edicts. Under his inspiring leadership, not a single Catholic priest either conformed to the regu- lations or left his post. The Archbishop's personal correspondence from this period re- flects his zeal and universal tenderness, his deep suffering, strong will, sincere goodness, love of God and neighbor, and his love.for his homeland. The profanation by the Communists in 1919 of the relics of St. Andrew Bobola fwho was declared a martyr saint for the faith in 1749 by Pope Benedict XlVj caused Cieplak much anxiety. Because of his great personal devotion to the Saint, he made every effort to protect the relics while they were under his jurisdiction and to recover them after their confiscation. ln this he feared nothing. Ever with a tone of firmness and dignity, of respect and strength, he literally demanded the re- tur11 of the relics. FIRST ARREST For his purported anti-government activi- ties the Archbishop was arrested for the first time on Holy Thursday, April 1, 1920, and taken to the prison in Petersburg. Here un- der trying conditions of threats, abuse, and discomfort, he stayed 15 days. He later said he spent his time on his knees, praying and singing every Polish and Latin Hymn he knew. The repeated demonstrations of Cath- olics in Petersburg forced his release. His first act after liberation was to go to the Ca- thedral Church to thank Cod for his free- dom. A contemporary describes him after the release as pale, weary, changed, hut smilingf' Repeatedly, however, he refused to sign any document or agreement which would force him to compromise any of his convictions. SECOND ARREST Following a series of acts of violence on the part of the Communists which included confiscation of Church properties, suppression of religious services, and arrests of the faith- ful, Archbishop Cieplak was arrested again in July of 1922. He was taken into custody while bidding farewell and speaking words of benediction upon a group of Polish refugees at the railroad station. Accused of inciting them to disobedience of the authorities, he was kept in prison for two or three days and then released. THIRD ARREST The Communist authorities did not give him much peace. On March 2, 1923, he was ordered to go to Moscow to appear there for interrogation. On Sunday, March 4th, the Archbishop and the other priests who were summoned left for Moscow. Cieplak stayed On May 30, 1918, one year after the Bolshevik Revolution, Bishop Cieplak together with Archbishop Ropp arranged a public Corpus Christi Procession on the streets of Petersburg.

Peter and Paul Church until March lflth when he was taken to court and later into custody in an old converted castle. Two days later he was taken to the prison at Bu- tyrlxi. The group of prisoners expected at most a sentence of exile, since they were sure that the trial would show that all they wanted was a conformity of Soviet law and Church law. llcfore the trial which liegan on Tuesday, Marcli 2lst, he wrote to his dear friend Bish- op Nowowiejski: mln the event that I am con- demned, please do not intercede with the Po- lish government for my freedom. I want to suffer for the Church and for the Faith. Be it prison or the scverest penalty, I will accept it as a penance for my sins, and I will heg Cod for the grace of persevering in good. To suffer for the cause of the Church is the greatest possihle glory for a priest, and even more so for a hishop, for this is our obliga- tionf, The trial was a veritahle travesty on jus- tice. He and his companions fthere were I4- priests and one layman hesides himselfj were accused of transgressing certain decrees and regulations of the Soviet government. Their attorneys were Bohriszezew-Puszkin and Kor- nodo'w. The trial lasted five days. Much tes- timony was introduced and the chief evidence were the writings of Ropp, Cieplak, and Bud- kiewiez, the last heing Archbishop Cieplak,s personal representative whom he sent to lVIos- cow to negotiate with the government. Arch- lmishop Cieplak never denied the truth hut BISHOP AND MARTYR merely defended his actions. Throughout the trial the government attorney. llfliehael Kry- lenko, referred to him as Hfiitixen Cieplalxf' At one point towards the end of the trial lxry- lenlio shouted: Nflieplali must die to prove that there is no one who can stand so high that Soviet justice cannot reach him. Itudlqiewicz. c - - - a - as his chief advisor, must die too. Un the last day of the trial, Saturday. lVlarch 25th, the judges left the room at 4:40 P.lVI. to deliherate on the verdict. Eight hours later, at l:30 A.lVl.. they returned to the courtroom which, in spite of the late hour. was filled with visitors. The verdict, an ex- tremely long document listing their transgres- sions and their punishments, was then read. Cieplak and Budkiewicz were handed the highest penalty: death at the hands of a firing squad. Witnesses of this final scene will never for- get it: the crying of the Polish women: the frantie efforts of Gregory, the Archhishopls faithful servant. to get to himg the sneer- ing Krylenkog the kneeling faithful lregging his hlessingg the guards and soldiersg Cie- plakls hand raised in henediction, and the words: Hldenedieat Vos Omnipotens Deus 79 Throughout the trial the saintly victim maintained an unhroken calm. At its con- clusion, he accepted the death sentence cour- ageously and manfully. Immediately after the trial John Cieplak was taken to the Butyrlci prison, where he re- mained for eleven months. Conditions in this three-story square prison building were hor- rible. Prayer and communion with God were his only strength. Torture, uncertainty, mur- der, filth, stench, blasphemy, obscenity, mal- nutrition were all the order of the day. The prisoners were allowed periodic cor- respondence. On June 24, 1923, the Arch- bishop received best wishes on the occasion of his patron's feast day from his faithful. In answer he wrote them: '4Dear Brethren! Among the many benefits we receive from our Church, Unity, which is the chief mark of our Holy Church, brings us much joy in the difficult moments of our life. A man looks differently upon the world when, finding him- self in difhcult straits, he knows that he is not alone, that there are many others spiritually united with him, who remember him and pray for him. This benefit, flowing from the Unity of our Church, I have experienced in my life. And the letter, dear brethren, received from you recently was its causef' In the middle of March, 1924, he was taken from Butyrki to the prison in Lubianka. Con- ditions were even worse here. He was mal- treated, persecuted, tortured, and starved. He stayed here but five weeks. WORLD PROTESTS The injustice wrought upon Archbishop Cieplak and his companions brought on a storm of protest from the whole world: Po- land, the Vatican, United States, England, France, Belgium, Sweden, Rumania, Ger- many, Czechoslovakia, Argentina, Spain, Italy, Brazil, Switzerland, Yugoslavia, Por- tugal, and Ireland, all sent communications of protest to the Soviet government. FREEDOM As a result of this general indignation, a series of consultations was held in Moscow and it was decided on March 22nd to change the first commutation of sentence fthrough which his penalty was reduced from death to 10 years imprisonmentl and set him free. LATVIA This was done in a most sinister manner. Two soldiers came to take him from the pris- on. The Archbishop thought that his last hour had come. Instead, the soldiers took , l s ,.

At the border he received identihcation papers, a Latvian visa, a herring and a piece of bread. The soldiers told him he was free and left. The first difficulty came on the train to Riga. '4Hatless and coatless, clad in torn and dirty priestly garbf, he had no money to pay for his ticket. When the conductor, a Pole, discovered who his ticketless passenger was, he paid for the martyris fare with his own money. In I.atvia he received a warnr welconre, since many had remembered the paternal care he had shown them in Russia. He had even studied their language the better to minister to their spiritual needs. POLAND On April I2th the Archbishop left for Po- land. News of his release spread quickly so that at several places he was forced to stop to speak to the assembled people who called him a hero and martyr, for the full nrerit of mar- tyrdom lies not in the shedding of blood but in the readiness to offer your life to Cod. Iivery place he was splendidly received. To their protestations he answered: HI am really not as great a hero as you think. I only did my dutyf, WARSAW The reception in Warsaw was most mem- orable. Everyone came out to greet the holy Archbishop: school children, workers' un- ions, boy scouts, youth groups, city and army officials, church dignitaries, and the Papal Nuncio, Cardinal Lauri. His speech here he began by saying: HDearest Countrymenl Whoever has known motherly love, whoever has loved his mother, understands my joy at my return to my dearest homeland. His humility was always in evidence. In a letter written on May I5, 19244, he said: ulVIy Cod, what strange things You are work- IIIO' with me an unworthy, weak, frail manf, C7 He stayed in Warsaw for five days. On April 15th the University of Stefan Batory in Wilno conferred upon him the honor of a permanent Chair at the University. After a short rest at Spala, he returned to Warsaw to- ward the end of April to prepare for his trip to Rome. On Saturday, May lst, he left for Czestochowa, where he spent Sunday and where, in spite of inclement weather, thou- sands were present to greet and cheer him. ROME The city of Rome, the Eternal City, which during its long history has seen the greatest of men, doesnit excite very easily. But it did when Archbishop Cieplak entered its limits. And a further honor was extended him when the Secretary of State, Peter Cardinal Cas- parri, who did this only on rare occasions, came forth to greet him. While in Rome, the Archbishop stayed at the Polish College conducted by the Resur- rection Fathers. In the evening of May eighth, he had a three quarter of an hour au- dience with the Holy Father, Pius XI. The meeting was a touching one with both men shedding manly tears of joy and finding dilli- culty at first to speak because of the deep emo- tion. Before bidding him farewell that first evening, the Holy Father asked Archbishop Cieplak to prepare for him a detailed report on the state of the Catholic Church in Russia, and on anything else he might consider im- portant and helpful in bringing aid to the faithful in that country. This report was per- sonally given to His Holiness at another audi- ence at the end of June. When writing of these audiences, the Servant of God described them thus: uThe Holy Father gave that which is most precious+He has shown me a gen- erous heart, He received me as a father would receive his beloved son. This is enough for me. I have no right to demand anything else, I have pretense to nothing moref, This cordiality of the Pope, as he himself pointed out, was the greatest source of spiri- tual consolation to him during his stay in Rome. As for finances, his embarrasing condition of no source of income was rectified by the Polish Government when it voted to give him the same salary as was given to the other Archbishops in Poland. During his stay in Rome, the Archbishop received many guests. Visiting Cardinals paid their respects to him, and the entire pa- pal diplomatic corps came to him expressing their respect and admiration at his suffering in defense of the Faith. He also hosted many Polish pilgrims, including Mr. and Mrs. Ignacy Paderewski. Everyone was received most cordially at any hour of the day, for all he had words of kindness, encouragement and comfort. In mid-September he attended the Euchar- istic Congress at Palermo. He also took part in the transposition of the relics of St. An- drew Bobola from the palace Chapel of the Holy Father to the Church al Cesu, where he offered the Pontifical Mass on that occasion. He described his stay in Rome thus: 'flu addition to all of this, to all of these joys which I am receiving from the grace of God, there come upon me moments of sadness, my heart grows heavy, I heave a sigh, and some- times a tear fills my eye, because in the last analysis I am a vagabond without a home. When and where will I find it? And will I find it? UNITED STATES Upon the invitation of Bishop Gallagher of Detroit and Bishop Schrembs of Cle who were in Rome in June of 1925, as well at the invitation of numerous individuals and Polish-American organizations, Archbishop .Iohn Cieplak arrived in America on ber 11, 1925, after 18 months in Rome. came with no official mission-just to Thank you for what Americans had for him. Every place the receptions accorded were most cordial and impressive. I York over 10,000 people and 200 cluding Bishop Plagens of forth to greet him. Here, in the Cardinal Mundelein of New York Ordinary, Cardinal Archbishop's constant companion was Fr. Stanley Kruczek, pastor of Holy Rosary Par- ish, in Passaic, New Jersey. Freed from prison, hatless and coatless, clad in torn and dirty priestly garb, Archbishop Cieplak found himself tragically alone on the Latvian border. Here he received his identification papers, a Latvian visa, a herring and a piece of bread. After several days in New York, where among many receptions was a very impres- sive banquet at the Hotel Commodore, he left for Washington. Here he visited the Polish Embassy, was invited to the White House, where he spoke with President Calvin Cool- idge, and breakfasted with the Apostolic Del- egate, Fumasoni Biondi. From him he learn- ed of his election to the See of Wilno, which he was to take over in four months. This news changed his original plans to stay in America for about a year. Now that he knew his future, he travelled with new life and enthusiasm, and doubled and tripled his activity. On November 15th he was at Port Rich- mond, Staten lsland, several days later in De- troit, and on November 28th at the Polish Seminary at Orchard Lake, Michigan. From there he went to Chicago on December lst. In Chicago he stayed at the Sisters of Naz- areth Convent, spending eight days visiting Churches, attending banquets and programs, and everywhere speaking to the people. Milwaukee was his next stop and from there he went to Buffalo where in 5 days he spoke 33 times. On December 28th he was in Bay City, Michigan. While in the United States he visited 375 dio- ff' 2 X lx 1' ' rt' .J --l' . . ' . is . A, x V, 4 A ff,-r PA- P' - 'Pi .i.,flg ?l'f0J'hh'il -, .. - A 1 - I .

FN 4 N Q 1 f s a ai - A ' - Z I ceses, and made over 800 speeches in three months. His daily routine was most trying. From an early rising late into the night he was con- stantly occupied. One day he visited sixteen churches. Every Polish parish wanted to be host to the Archbishop, every place the faith- ful wanted to see his saintly countenance, hear his subdued voice. His appearance al- ways left a deep impression. The air of sanc- tity seemed to strike everyone who beheld him. FAREWELL AND DEATH His plans called for sailing to Europe on February 13th, so that he could be in Rome on the 25th. On February 10th a huge Fare- well Testimonial was arranged in his honor at the Hotel Astor in New York. Already weak and sick with a cold he had caught while waiting for several hours in the cold for his car to be repaired after an accident, he still insisted on delivering his farewell speech so as not to disappoint the many who had come to see him off. The next day he became seriously ill with pneumonia and influenza and was taken to St. Mary's Hospital in Passaic, New Jersey. On Wednesday, February 17th, after he had re- quested the Last Rites, he died at 10:00 P.lVl. in the presence of many clergymen, nuns, and the Polish consul. Funeral services in Passaic were held on Saturday, February 20th. Bishop Schrembs f of Cleveland conducted the services, while Msgr. T. McLaughlin in his sermon called him the greatest apostle of our times. On February 26th special services were held in St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York with Bishop Plagens of Detroit celebrating, and Cardinal Hayes concelebrating at the throne. Bishop Joseph Schrembs of Cleve- land, delivered the eulogy. At the very out- set he compared him to the early martyrs of Christianity, St. Stephen, St. Chrysostom, and stated that Archbishop Cieplak was an exam- ple of fearless heroism in the preaching of the Faith. He said, Archbishop Cieplak, a hero-martyr, stood intrepidly like a rock. He had no political ambitions, and neither spoke nor thought of politics. He had but one concern-the Faith and the Church. And he was sentenced to death because he refused to abandon his holy apostolate. The world was dumbfounded by the ac- tion of the Soviets, and with anger protested the verdict. Our own American government before others demanded amnesty for the great victim, demanded his freedomf, Msgr. Alexander Pitass of Buffalo also spoke on this occasion. ln his sermon he said: 'This great heart has stopped beating. He has fallen like a soldier at his post, like an apostle on his mission. Just as once Moses hurrying to the promised land had never ar- rived there but only caught a glimpse of it from a distance, so also Archbishop Cieplak never reached his flock in Wilno but saw it only in spirit from a distance. The greater part of his life he spent as a wanderer . . . Sorrow and sadness tear at our hearts, our eyes are filled with tears, much of our hope goes to the grave with the deceased, but as faithful Christians, taught by his example and words of instruction, we bow our heads before the verdict of Cod and with resigna- tion whisper-Thy Will be done. He concluded his sermon with these words: With a grieved heart we bid you farewell, most venerable archbishop, and dearest friend! Your motionless body can no longer stand before us, but from the heights of heaven it will bless us. Your lips have been silenced here, but in heaven they will pray for us. You leave us, but you go to the land of the Stanislauses, Casimirs, Hyacinths, An- drews, Hedwigs, where amid the saints, at the throne of Cod, you will remember us. Amen. The body of Archbishop Cieplak was then returned to Poland where fitting tributes were paid to him at Danzig on March 9th, Warsaw on March 12th, and Wilno on March 16th. In the Cathedral of this last city his remains were laid to rest in a crypt near the sacristy. On the face of the crypt is a beautiful bronze bust of the Archbishop, dressed in pontifical vestments, leaning forth from a pulpit. Be- low this is the following memorial tablet: Father John Cieplak, Doctor of Theology Archbishop-elect--Metropolitan of Wilno MILWAUKEE CHICAGO Archbishop Cieplak arrived in America on November 11, 1925. Every place he went the receptions accorded him were most cordial and impressive. While in thc United States he visited 375 par ishcs and 25 dioceses and made over 800 speeches in three month Born in 1857--Ordained 1878 Long-time professor at the Divinity Academy in Petersburg From 1908-Suffragan Bishop of Moghilev From 1919-Administrator of Moghilev For his faith and Church cast into prison on March 30, 1923, by the Communists Sentenced to death and freed by the inter- cession of the Holy Father Pius Xl and other foreign nations Returned to Poland, while fortifying the Poles in America, nominated Archbishop of Wilno, September 14, 1925 Died in Passaic, New Jersey, February 17, 1926 Leaving his Diocese an orphan before taking over its direction A man of deep knowledge, strong faith, and a great lover of his Church and his coun- try, full of love for the poor and suffering. CANDIDATE FOR SAINTHOOD And so ended the brilliant but stormy, strange but inspiring career of the greatest apostle of our times. In so many ways, Cod had directed his life, a life of holiness and sanctity, a life marked by heroic virtue and apostolic zeal. In the name of the Lord he crossed plains, scaled mountains, sailed oceans, suffered in prisons, bore the sentence of death, worked, hungered, preached, taught, counseled, absolved, forgave, and stood for right. He was a bridge between East and West, an example of harmonious love of Cod and N EW YORK WASHINGTON I l country, a glorious victim. His life was an inspiration to his priests. At his sight their hearts beat quicker and their priestly souls grew in courage and manliness. His mitre was garlanded with a crown of thorns, his crosier decked with fetters, his hand poised in benediction brought down upon men the blessings and graces of the Almighty, and his whole bearing breathed the persecution of the ages. At the end of his life he could have said: It is consummated. He had drunk his chalice, had completed his apostolic mis- sion, had preserved the faith of his Church, had praised God on earth. His mind and heart were always permeated with a consuming love for souls. In his pri- vate life and daily intercourse with men he was unusually kind, mild, gentle, and help- ful-keenly aware of and sensitive to the needs of men. With his warm heart, fiery speech, and inspired countenance, he worked to help men spiritually and materially. His life was a rich mosaic of heroic vir- tues: an open and constant faith shown in word and deed, in suffering and persecution, in zeal and devotion as priest, teacher, and bishop, an undaunted hope manifested in his spirit of prayer, dependence on God, and conformity with the Divine Will, an intense charity that enabled him to love God most perfectly, inspired him to live his life only for others, and fortified him to the point of self-immolation, a calm prudence expressed in his work in the confessional, in his episcopal ministrations, and his political relations, and exemplary justice that made him honest, un- prejudiced, and impartial, a willing modera- tion that kept him always balanced, calm, and poised, a Christian courage that made him like one of the early catacomb followers of Christ, willing to hazard his life in defense of the Church and its truths, a holy poverty that inculcated a spirit of detachment from all earthly goods, a sacred Chastity which did away with all frivolity in speech or action, a perfect obedience that led him to self-sur- render without any reservations, a deep hu- mility and modesty through which he sought to efface his own part in anything. This is the story of John Baptist Cieplak. It is a moving story, a thrilling and inspiring account of a holy man who was given the grace to live his life in great sanctity. We look at him in admiration and pray for the help from Cod to emulate his virtues. We pray too that soon we may see him upon our Holy Altars and hear his name spoken among those of the Saints.

There are three degrees of sanctity: Vener- able, lilessed, and Saint. The title Servant of Codw is given to persons whose sanctity is under consideration. When the reputation for sanctity of the Servant of Cod has been judicially estab- lished, and the Commission of Introduction for their cause has been signed by the Pontilif, the title Venerable may be applied to them. Wlieii the process of beatification is complete, the title of lilesscd can be used, and those who have re- ceived the honor of canonization are called Saints. The process by which the Church tests the veracity of the facts and investigates the nature of the activity of the candidate is cautious and judicious. Caring neither for social rank nor outstanding learning, the Church demands ex- ceptional virtue which it tests by the presence of miracles worked by or through the candi- dateis intercession. ln our own day only the Pope can beatify. Previously bishops could grant this honor to those who fulhlled the strict conditions. Heatin- cation is a permission for public worship lim- ited to designated places and particular acts. Permission for such veneration is given in most cases to persons and localities which have in some way been connected with thc candidate, for example, an Order, a church, a city, or a dio- cese. Other restrictions in regard to the beatihed 5...-i wx . 'xg N Rt Rev. Msgr. Valerian Meysz- The Rev. Francis Doman'ski, S.J. The Rev.

The process takes many years because the investigations are long and thorough. Their purpose is to discover all the known facts from witnesses who person- ally may have knowledge of them and to verify the accunmlated information. All such reports are submitted to members of a committee espe- cially prepared forthe handling of such matters. nature from those of confessors and virgins be- cause some of the steps required of the latter of their nature cannot be fulfilled in the causes of martyrs. There are twenty steps to be carried out in beatification which is the most important and most dilhcult step towards canonization. After a postulator has been designated who will be responsible for the direction and promotion of the cause, he chooses vice-postulators who will conduct judicial investigations outside of Rome. ln the second step are prepared the inquiries which will be carried on and which are of three kinds: tlj the Hlnformativew treat of the repu- : V I sig li.

The results of these investigations are next sent to Home to the Congregation of Rites. The fourth step consists of assembling these ma- terials, translating them into italian if necessary, and making them public. There now follows a thorough study of the writings, a summary of the preliminary investigations, and formulation of replies to the observations made by the Pro- motor of the Faith. The printing of these documents and their dis- tribution to the Cardinal members of the Con- gregation oi Rites forty days prior to the time set for their discussion constitutes the sixth step. lf the writings of the candidate are found to be free from anything contrary to faith and morals, a decree permitting further action is published. Another meeting at which the Cardinals of the Congregation and its oflicers discuss the candi- date and his cause is the eighth step. Il there are no objections on the part of the participants at the end of this meeting, a decree, signed by the Pope. granting the Servant of Cod the title of Venerable is promulgated. The tenth step consists of the presentation of a petition requesting permission to investigate the fame of sanctity, the particular virtues, and the miracles of the candidate. All of these must he absolutely and incontrovertibly established by testimony of witnesses who knew the Vener- able Servant of Cod. The life and character of the person are most scrupulously examined. The candidate must have possessed to a heroic de- gree the three theological virtues-faith, hope, and charityg and the four cardinal virtues- Y, W E 'J Very Rev. Leopold J. Rt. Rev. Msgr. Edward J Buinowski Szumal Vice-Postulator Vice-Postulator Brownwood, Texas Orchard Lake, Michigan prudence, justice, fortitude. and temperance. The theological virtues must be possessed habitually and permanently, the cardinal virtues must exist to the degree that is required by the person's vocation in life. Statesmen and prelatcs must possess justice and temperance. Popes are required to have a zeal for the defense and dis- semination of the Catholic faith. A loyal at- tachment to the Church and Rome is required of kings, while married women must be possessed of Oentleness and devotion. g . There now follows a discussion and investiga- tion of the absence of cult. In the twelfth step the results of the investigation conducted outside of Rome are translated into Italian. collected, and authenticated. ln the next step new letters for further inquiries about thc Servant ol' Cod are sent to the bishops outside of Rome. These must be completed within eighteen months. Upon their arrival in Home they are translated and authenticated. These documents are then presented to the advocate of the cause. The next step H53 is the '4Congregatio llo- talisv at which only the judges of the llota vote. This consists of a further discussion of the can- didate and an elfort at answering the dillicul- ties of the Promotor of the Faith. Next H61 the theological and cardinal vir- tues of the Venerable Servant of Cod are dis- cussed in three meetings called the ante-prepa r- atory, the preparatory, and the general. At the third of these the Pope himself presides. liach meeting must conclude with a vote in favor of the candidate. The following step H71 hnds the Pope signing a declaration that the Servant of Cod did possess heroic virtues. ln the eighteenth step the matter of miracles is scrutinized. If the existence of heroic virtues has been proved from the testimony of eye- witnesses through the special inquiries. two mir- Rt Rev Msgr. Francis Rev. Valerian Karcz Radziszewski Vice-Postulator Buffalo New York Hobart, Indiana acles of the first class are required, if proved by the testimony of eye-witnesses through ordi- nary inquiries, three miracles are required, if proved only by hear-say witnesses, four miracles are needed. The miracles a1'e discussed in the same fashion and order as were the virtues. When a favor- able decision is granted, a formal decree con- firmed by the Pope is promulgated. In the final step it is debated but once whether the candidate is to be beatified. If a majority is in favor of this course, the Pope issues a doc- ument to this effect and at a specified time the solemn beatifieation of the Venerable Servant of God takes place in the Vatican Basilica. Here it is publicly announced that the person is now Blessed and public cult and venera- tion are permitted. On the day of beatification, Mass is said in St. Peter's in the presence of the entire Con- gregation of Rites. The papal decree formally announcing the new Blessed is read after the Gospel by the secretary of the Congregation. Over the altar there stands a painting of the newly beatified which is uncovered at the con- clusion of the reading, and Mass is then con- eluded. The Holy Father visits the Basilica to vener- ate the Blessed about the hour of Vespers. By a special decree the celebration of Mass and recitation of the Office are permitted annually on a fixed day with some restrictions as to place. Solemn triduums may also be celebrated and the name of the heatified may now be in- cluded in the lVlartyrology. As soon as two miracles are reported to have been worked at the intercession of the Blessed, the process for canonization may be initiated. Under present regulations, however, this can- not be done without dispensation until at least fifty years have passed since the death of the candidate. When these conditions are fulfilled, three meetings of the Congregation are held and a decree that no doubt exists in regard to the miracles and that there is no reason why the canonization should not take place is issued. St. Peteris is traditionally the august site of the glorious canonization. Following many ceremonies, the Postulator of the cause, invar- iably a person of high rank and distinction and usually of the country or Order of the proposed Saint, petitions the Holy Father that the name of the Blessed Servant of Cod whose cause he pleads be listed among the Saints. To this petition which is repeated twice the Supreme Pontiff answers each time that it is in the best interest further to explore the will of God by prayer. There follows the chanting of the litan- ies and the singing of the '6Veni Creatorf, After the third request His Holiness declares and ordains, in honor of the Holy Trinity, for the glory of the Catholic faith and the progress of the Christian religion, in virtue of the au- thority of our Lord Jesus Christ, of the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul and of his own plenary and proper authority, that the Servant of Cod in question shall be inscribed on the register of the Saints. He also requests that his or her memory shall be celebrated on a given day, in every part of the Church. The Pope then ofiiciates at a solemn lVlass celebrated in honor of the new Saint. The canonization of a saint is beyond doubt the most solemn, soul-stirring, heart-warming, and imposing ceremony in the entire liturgy of the Church. It is the august and majestic cul- mination of many years of players and efforts on the part of thousands. It is an event which eloquently testifies to the fact that God's redeeming graces are lav- ishly dispensed to His children and that the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit is effective- ly operating in the Mystical Body of Christ. The presentation to the world of a new saint is a source of deep joy and unbounded gladness, a living witness to Cod's love and goodness.

RIVER ROAD ' GROSSE ILE, MICHIGAN ' TRENTON 0'I2'lM let me tell you thi There,s no substitute for a secure future, as far as Pm concerned. By that, I mean having a job in a company that you know isnit going to fold beneath you but is going to continue paying you a fair wage for a good job done. A company has to follow certain rules in order to provide jobs for its employees and a fair profit for its owners, the shareholders. Such things as quality products, pro- gressive management policies and sound employee relations practices can't be ignored. Pm a printing pressman and run a large modern five-color rotary printing press. I've worked for the Sutherland Paper Company more than 25 years. Itis one of the top outfits in the packaging industry. I know that in the years ahead the company will continue to grow. I ive staked my future on it. SUTHERLAND PAPER CO.
