DcdiisdlimltutIufTu1i luis FTEN it is said of people that no sacrifice is performed without some expected reward. What can bc thc reward of these thirteen dedicated mcn who have spent over a decade in training men ol Xavier? Fame and fortune are hardly tltoir compensation, but rather devotion and un- cxpressable gratitude on the part of each boy marks their prize. The years roll on and more students are prepared to face the troublcs and problems ofthe world, both in a spiritual capacity and on an intellectual basis. The nights of seemingly outrageous homework assignments and evcn the tours in Guard House go only towards their plans for our personal gain and ncccssary training. ln the years to come, we shall loolr back with thankfulness and cherish their memory.
