“ you have knowledge , let others light their candles at it .” Thomas Fuller For today’s youth to grow into to¬ morrow’s leaders they must be able to reflect the knowledge gained from their wise leaders. St. Vincent’s Academy is proud to be able to provide for its students a dedicated faculty. Not only dedicated to the students as a teacher but a guiding light to aid them in be¬ coming leaders and ladies of America. By sharing their wisdom in the class¬ rooms and extra-curricular activities, they instill in each girl a desire for knowledge which is the basis for all learning. Wisdom is an intangible quality which our teachers through hard effort have obtained. Their wisdom cannot be completely limited to academic achievements, but included in many phases of their lives. The wisdom to do right by others, the wisdom to be a good citizen and countryman, and the wisdom to follow a good Christian life—these dear quali¬ ties that our faculty possess are the ones each student should try to achieve as they, the youth of today, become the leaders of tomorrow. ‘7 could tell where the lamplighter was by the trail he left behind him .” Lauder 7

Seniors of the Class of Sixty-Seven: In a short time you will be proud possessors of high school diplomas certifying that you have completed in a satisfactory manner the work prescribed for graduation. Many of you will go on for higher studies; others will go into the business world, and a few will be homemakers shortly after graduation. My final words of counsel for all of you are: Always remember that the years spent in formal education are few in comparison to the many years afterwards when men and women must be responsible for their own personal living if they are to lead a full life. Therefore, benefit by the many educational and occupational advantages that are yours. Insight and courage are the qualities needed and these can be obtained through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. May He guide you in all your undertakings and lead you on to your ultimate goal, union with God in eternity. My love and prayers, 6
