In a day when efficiency is the keynote of pro- gress e whether in the smooth functioning of an entire nation or merely of a home kitchen - the personal touch can easily be relegated to obscurity. Yet, efficiency and the personal touch must both be evident and operative in the huge undertaking every school represents. The educational process requires ingenuity, imagination, interest, and ideal- ism on the part of the Principal. While his busy day is filled with myriad details, efficiency and the personal touch are united. He must organize the curriculum to function with optimum efficiency while still allowing for a certain amount of choice by incorporating electives. He must watch over not only the religious instruction e which is foremost, the reason for the very existence of a Catholic school e but every other branch of learning. 3am ma m, In his responsible task of educating Catholic youth to be intelligent, practical Catholic American citizens, out Reverend Principal is assisted by a teaching staff which matches his dedication and by Catholic parents whose cooperation demon- strates their deep concern for their sons. Indeed, since the responsibility of education rests mutually on parents and school, we can say, without fear of irreverence, that the Principal is the hyphen in the patent-school relationship. He is the liaison be- tween parent and school; he keeps the closest and most personal contact with both the parents and their sons. He is the keystone to the sound and solid edifice representing Weberis educational en- deavors. While recognizing that the school is the instrument of the parents, he efhciently directs the school to ensure the realization of its aim e the formation of Catholic gentlemen, men of character. 1a
