DICATIGN To Mary Immaculate, you who are the inspiration, the hope, and the ideal of every true Michaelian, we dedicate our Archangelo, confident that you will note, not its defects, but the love that accompanies it. You are the masterpiece of God's creation, our tainted nature's solitary boast. During the desolate winter that followed the fall of our first parents, all men were born in a sin-darkened world. Then on the horizon appeared the glory of your Immaculate Conception, and the dawn of the day of promise. Fittingly does the Church apply to you the words of Proverbs, l was set up from eternity And of old before the earth was made . . . He had not yet made the earth Nor the rivers nor the poles of the world. When He prepared the heavens I was there I was with Him forming all things You were there as God's cooperator when He remade the world after it had been shattered by the sin of Adam. It was your acceptance of Gabriel's message that, humanly speaking made the Incarnation possible. We honor you as our queen and we love you as our mother. But since no words of ours can adequately praise you, we wish to repeat the tribute of one of your most devoted sons, Father Daniel S. Lord, Your face glorious with the white light of purity is still the best-loved face in all the world. Your eyes are the clear clean eyes that were blessed with the vision of God's Incarnate Son. Youth will not be lost as long as it has Mary, Virgin and Mother, and it will never lose that vision while the Church lasts.
