xx FRQQL V' Purpose ln this, the first volume of The Froslirz, we, the class of 1929, bid adieu to our Alma Mater. We, as students, bid a life-long farewell to the old St. Wendelin with its spirit and traditions, which have come into our hands from those who have gone before us. This volume is a summary of our contribution to the history and glory of a school which has brought forth fruit in abundance through the years of patient hardship. From the crowded halls of the old building, we carry forth The Froslin and place it witha sigh of separation in the hands of our parents, s:hool mates and friends. It is a relic, almost a sacred one, from the past that shall live forever. An honor and 'a privilege is ours, to publish the first annual of St. Wen-- delin's, especially in this, the Jubilee Year of Our Holy Father and of our pas- tor, respected and beloved. There is the hope in the heart of all our class that when other years to follow, they shall bring with them the record of greater achievements which shall add to the light of our school's accomplishments. With the curtain slowly descending upon our high school careers, may this annual be a loving memorial and a lasting token of affectionate gratitude to our parents and teachers: may it visualize more clearly the hard won honors of our senior year and tell the aspirations of our future, may it give in tangible form the same ideal that was fashioned for us by the consecrated lives and kind exi- ample of others. A high and noble purpose indeed and with this, purpose, we place it now in your hands, Six

mosuv 'i-'??M13' Right Reverend Samuel A. Striteh, D. D. Bishop of Toledo Our Bishop, Rt. Reverend Samuel A. Stritch, has always shown a great interest in the education of the boys and girls of his diocese. The students of St. Wendelin's realize this, for his lordship has enthusiastically encouraged Father Weber to get the new St. Wendelin high under way. Our Bishop has brought to completion a monument of education in the Catholic Central high school in Toledo, and we earnestly hope that before another year will dawn the people of Fostoria will be looking upon a second achievement-a new St. Wendelin high. It is the one ambition of the Rt. Reverend Bishop to train valiant moral men and women, sturdy and firm leaders for church and country - and his means thereto are the Catholic high schools and colleges, made possible by the loyal, sacrificing advocates of higher learning.
