Now that peace has come to the world, a cer- tain sense of security has taken hold of many of its people. But in order to establish and maintain that security, we must truly come to be the people of the world, not just of a nation norofa community. Only through this world unity can we hope to survive in the face of the Sreat destructive powers now loosed to mankind. To eain this unity, we as individuals must endeavor to instill in our hearts certain ideals, such as tolerance and love for our fellow man, and we must attain a true faith in God, one which will endure through all trials. The suidance and knowle dge we receive here at Saint Mary's Hall are invaluable aids in developing these ideals and in preparing us to accept the responsibilities which will be Ours in future years.

HW Lys Lee ‘ Nessage What is education? Skills and techniques, the mastery of the 3 R's? Knowledge of certain facts essential to our culture? Fun, and friends, and learning to work together? Yes, all this, and so much more besides . ote For education is a continuing process, through school, through college, and throughout life itself. Education is what you make it. And here at Saint Mary s Hall we hope you have caught a vision of what a liberal education really iS es, are For it can Sive you — respect, not just tolerance, for all mankind — concern for the common sood above and beyond personal gain — an open mind, free from prejudice and skeptical of over simplification — ability to discriminate in the overwhelming exigencies of life — a sense of direction and of dedication — Only with such education can one world be achieved, can chaos be avoided, and individuals grow into that good life which must be realized for all if one is to be free to enjoy it. May you build these tenets into your own lives and so into the world in which you live. [(olhonimns lee.
