said; You must never say farewell to your
alma mater In your school life you have
learned how to express yourself Thesa
good features which you have learned pre
dominate In the teaching in the Catholic
schools. Why does the artistic come to the
front In the Catholic schools7 Because the
aim of the Catholic teacher lis clear and
definite. The training is that which goes
to the heart. We do 1t for the sake of the
soul.
The Catholic Church has ever been the
patron of the fine arts. Vice Is ugly No
biiity of purpose is good. Though you pass
today from St. Cecilia's there is one school,
young ladies. which you must never forget
and that Is the holy mother church. You
must always remain so that at the Anal

the blessed abode. The best of all arts is
the art of living. 1 wish you success
