Choosing as his subject, "Love", and defining Christian love as "wishing well to someone, and seeing that it is done", Father McQuaid spoke of the love shown to the graduates by God, their parents, and their teachers, ;Speaking first of 'God's love, Father said He showed this by creat- ing them, by redeeming them, by giv- ing them good parents, good teachers, and an opportunity to attend good schools and receive a Christian edu- cation. Parental love was shown by par ents helping their children in every way possible to attain the end for which they were created, namely, "to know, love and serve God here on earth, and afterwards to see and en- joy Him forever in Heaven". It was often necessary to surmount many obstacles in order to see to it that their children were baptized, that they received Holy Communion, Pen- ance and 'Confirmation, and attended s'c h o o 1 s where Catholic teachers would help them perform their duties. Teachers showed their love by "self sacrifice, devotion to duty, and a kindly interest shown each pupil". Father hoped that each graduate would remember with gratitude those Ursuline Sisters, and he offered a public word.of thanks to some of the pioneer teachers in Dublin High School for what they had done for him. He asked all the graduates to show their gratitude to their parents and to God by praying earnestly for guidance in their choice of a voca- tion, and by living up to the training they received while children. In concluding his remarks, Father McQuaid congratulated the graduates oalling them ".Marian Year Gradu- ates", that is, dedicated to Mary, the Mother of God, and aaking thein to follow Mary's advice in doing what- ever God wants them to do, and to dedicate their lives to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Reverend Doctor Ffoulkes and Reverend Father MoCowell presented the diplomas. The .girl graduates, who were dressed in white and car- ried bouquets, were Mary Lou Mc- Quaid, Joan Evans, Marie Dalton, Ursula Givlin, Rose Givlin, and Hel- en Horan. The boys were Jerry Eek- ert and Cyril Murray. Solemn Bene- diction was given by Father MciCow- ell, Doctor Ffoulkes and Father Mc- Quaid. The organist for the occa- sion was Mr. E. C. Harley, Super- visor of Music in the High School, who accompanied the choir. The Processional was "0 Magnify the Lord" sung as the graduates entered the church. After the Benediction, the choir sang `Praise We Our God With Joy” as the Recessional. After the Church ,Ceremony, a re- ception was held on the Convent Lawn, where the graduates and the teachers, Mother Anastasia, Mother Angela Merici and Mother Sheila re- ceived the guests. A lovely Gradua- tion cake was the centre piece on the tea table, which was decorated with gleaming silver, tall white can- dles decorated blue streamers, and a basket of yellow roses. Mrs. Mike Nagle and Mrs. Vincent Lane poured tea, A delicious lunch was served by the P.T.A. and the Catholic Women's League, assisted by the pupils of the school.
