HIS EXCELLENCY, BISHOP JAMES J. BYRNE Auxiliary Bishop of St. Paul Our graduates, rather than accepting their standards of excellence and achievement from the mass of men who despise the finer things of life and regard the accumulator of millions as more admirable than the impecunious hardworking father of a family, look to leaders like Bishop Byrne for their true ideals.

REVEREND VINCENT J. FLYNN President Pother Flynn, our very busy President, comes into our lives quite forcefully through his column in the school paper whero we see him as a man, not merely playing with words, but manifesting the ability to detect something untrue or absurd in a generally ac- cepted statement of belief. His columns are often a practical protest against herd thinking. With a plentiful sprinkling of his Irish wit he can tear certain modern notions of education to smithereens. We shall apply to our own lives the truths he has taught and lived. Facts are good, but principles are better. From our four years of association with men like Father Flynn we have, let us hope, garnered certain firm and basic principles about life, which will contribute to the upbuilding of our character and react upon our habits of living. These principles will aid us in distinguishing between the ephemeral and the enduring. Pog l n
