l-ife at St. Mary's has furnished us with an invaluable experience. NVC are not paragons of students' virtues: nor are we Aristotles and Virgils. We did not learn as much as could be expected, much of what we have heard in the classroom we have already forgotten, and much that we have learned will use to us later in life. How many of us will remember and make rules of Latin grammar, or the theorems of geometry? But the classroom was not lost. Our English, Polish, and Latin classes have our minds an interest in literature and thus furnished us with a be of little use of the time in the aroused in key by which we can unlock the great minds of all ages. The same is true of history. VVho of us will remember the dates of historical events? VVe did not get as much information as we could have, had we been more attentive in the classroom. VVe did, however, acquire an inquisitiveness, and an interest in history, which will prod us onward to further study. Yes, St. Mary's has trained us to train ourselves. The result of this careful training of will and mind are the strong loyalties, which we have in our hearts. St. Marys has taught us to be loyal to the Church, who is Christg she has taught us to do everything for Him through the Blessed Virgin, to whom this school is dedicated. She has developed in us a strong loyalty to Cyril and Methodius, who were the Apostles of the Slavs, they who made it possible for you and me to have our Christian heritage, who brought the first word of God to our Slavic forefathers. She has taught us to be loyal to the Pope, to the bishop of our diocese, and to our pastors. She has taught us to work for our country and for its great traditions of democracy: one of the few countries that still respects the dignity of man. She made it very clear to us that we should be loyal to our Polish heritage, to the institutions that .Xmericans of Polish descent have built in this country. And lastly, but of utmost importance, to our parents who have brought us into this world, they who planted the seeds of christianity in our hearts and which St. Marys has developed: to them who have suffered all hardships to make us rigid Catholics. It was to them that we went crying when we were young, in them we always found consolations. Such, I think would be the answer that the graduates of St. Mary's High School would give upon reflection if asked the question: VV'hat has St. Marys given you during the four years you have spent here? Some of us, I'm sure, would add other things, personal ones, but all, I think, would agree that what St. lIary's has given us boils down essentially to training in proper habits, development of the proper outlook on life and the building of strong loyalties. On one other thing all my classmates would agree, namely, that St. Mary's has developed within our hearts a burning love of these hallowed walls, which have housed us for four years, and an enthusiastic loyalty to the ideals for which the school stands. It is hard to put this love and loyalty into words-- I shall not even try to do itg but I am sure that I speak for every member of the class of 1946, when I say that we shall put the gratitude which we feel in our hearts towards St. Blary's into actions, actions which will promote and spread the ideals of St. 1Ia1'y's. May God Bless and guide St. Marys and help us to work for her glory all our lives. LW. 4'6'..-
