DUBLIN CONTINUATION SCHOOL GRADUATION An impressive ceremony was held in St. Patrick's Church, Dublin, on Sunday afternoon, June '7, when honors were conferred on the grad- uating class of Dublin Continuation School. Ushering the many guests were the president and vice-presi- dent of the Dublin Parent-Teacher Association, Mr, George 'Ducharme and Dr. Thos. Melady. The gradu- ates were preceded to their places at the front of the church by the pupils of the school, wearing their school colours, yellow and mauve, while the choir sang "To Christ, The Prince of Peace". The four girl -graduates looked charming in their long, graceful white gowns with bandeaux of flowers on their heads and carrying bouquets of flowers tied with yellow and mauve ribbon. Each one was accompanied by a tiny flower -girl also dressed in white, who carried. the .diploma into the church, and who carried the flowers after the ceremony. The boy graduate was dressed in a dark suit and had as his escort a tiny page boy dressed in grey flannel trous- ers with a wine coloured blazer. For this memorable occasion a former graduate was guest speaker, Rev. J. L. O'Rourke from St. Jo- seph's Church, Clinton. In his ad- dress on "Building a Greater Cana- da", Father O'Rourke congratulated the graduates on this momentous occasion, which had been looked for- ward to for so long. He said that they could now look back to their years of preparation with pride now that they had come to the turning point in their lives, and were going on to further years of study some- where in this wonderful country ,of ours. He said that they could thank their good christian homes where they were taught by good fathers and mothers that "first things come first", where they were taught "un- derstanding of and appreciation for the finer things of life", He said that they could thank their good Catholic schools where they were taught by nuns who were experts in the teaching of religion, and who held specialists diplomas second to none in academic subjects: And finally, they had their community and parish to thank, a parish whose pastor was "unsurpassed in the Dji,o- cele of London", Father O'Rourke said that he felt the graduates were well equipped to face the, future, that ",self-sufficiency was not in It- self 910.11$ b1f 44 •741clh tq base a Mid - •.g.,. cessful •career". Ile said that .out in the world success depends to a great extent on °tilers, and can, only be accomplished "whets God and. man work together The world makes great demands on us and it is our duty to see and recognize opportun- ities that present themselves. "The modern world 'is changing very rap- idly", said Father. "In science alone we have an unbelievable develop- ntent its hydro, radio, and television during the last quarter of a century. We are now in an atomic age where the possibilities of advancement are far greater than ever before. lie continued that man has a far great- er power on earth than all this, and if we had some force to bring out the best in us, we could reform the world over night, He said that men have found new beliefs and new systems, and are trying to spread them over .the world, Nazism, Com- munism, and Imperialism. However, we do not agree with these ideas and now there is a pressing need for leaders in this great Canada, which is the most respected of all nations. "Here we have people of every race, creed and political view", said Father O'Rourke, "who are working in small groups, and this is not the plan of God. We need leaders to be united in thought and effort for the common good, "for God and Canada", Father continued that our way of life should be de- veloped on Christian principles, on Christian brotherhood, or love of our neighbor. First, we must be able to handle ourselves, then pass on the knowledge gained by our experience for the betterment of others. The influence of good people is felt by the bad, and if we educate our youth by giving them a course of study calling for serious thought and action, and organize theta for useful and purposeful activities, not just to get together to sing and dance, we are on the first step to- wards training leaders for Christian brothbrhood. Father went on to say that in order to teach "unity of people for a common cause, we must start with good co-operation in a good christian family in which there I is mutual love. This feeling then spreads itself from the fancily to the community, and if the individual is good, the community is good." He said that these young members of the graduating class have been taught these principles and they should take this spirit with them out into the world, realizing and under- standing that the success of their lives depends on their Christian faith. He stressed the fact that we must put God back into our social, political and business world, from which He has been barred. After Father O'Rourke concluded, Rev. Doctor Ffoulkes congratulated the graduates, and, assisted by Rev. Father McCowell of St. Columban's parish, presented the diplomas. The graduates were: Marie Helen Brux- er, Mary Catherine Stapleton, from Grade XIII, and Dorothy Dillon, Leonard Gilbert Maloney, and Mar- ion Anne Roach, from Grade XII. Before the Solemn Benediction, the choir gave a very beautiful ren- dition of the Ave Maria. Another former graduate of the school, Rev. Father Moylan, S.F.M., gave the Solemn Benediction, assisted by Rev. Dr. Ffoulkes and Rev. Father McCowell. At the conclusion of the Church ceremony, the graduates and their friends proceeded to the spacious convent grounds where the recep- tion .was held. The tea table was placed in the foreground amid huge bouquets of spring flowers. It was decorated with gleaming silverware, lighted candles, and vases of yellow snapdragons and mauve lilacs. In the centre was the graduates' cake. The lunch was convened by the FOR Y MEN OF 16 E0 ENTEATRE 1 ALAI QRTI�. NOWFLAYING ._.....__ ._._, .___._.-._..._.._.,____._......
