 marks the graduation of St. Patricks parochial school. I feel it unneces- l from a scholastic standpoint. You l have been trained in loyalty to your l God. You have been shown there is a | law of heaven and a law of earth. Be
 ever faithful to your teachings. Rev. ! Dolin said that the parents and the
 friends of the graduates will watch their. future with the same devotion
 as they have watched their progress 1 through school If you but be faith
 full. he said. to the teachings of St. | Patrick's school. then you cannot but
 be successful, Be not wanting in f. 1 delity Be Semper Fidelis (ever faith l ful, the class motto). See that at all 1 times you let your conduct be such as l to win the admiration of all those | among whom you move, In the battle l of life realize that you are called upon l to fight to the end.
