JUNE 20, 1953 THE BULLETIN OF THE CATHOLIC LAYMENS ASSOCIATION OF GEORGIA THIRTEEN Cardinal Strifeh Addresses Grads At St. Joseph's RENSSELAER, Ind. (NC)— Col lege graduates in this atomic age face opportunities as great as those of the pioneers who built America, His Eminence Samuel Cardinal Striteh, Archbishop of Chicago, de clared here. The Cardinal addressed the graduates of St. Joseph’s ..College here. He and Auxiliary Bishop Leo A. Pursley of Fort Wayne, Ind., received honorary degrees at the exercises. Despite the fact that the world “is described as bleak and dark,” the Cardinal said, great opportuni ties in the field of atomic energy await the young men of today, especially college graduates. “I recently talked with a scien tist,” the Cardinal said, "and he told me of amazing things to come in the atomic and electronic age. He told me that we have just mere ly scratched the surface of atomic revelations. It is regrettable, how ever, that at this time the atom power is intended for destruction.” The Cardinal said it is up to the college graduates of today “to take the leadership” in the utilization of this new source of power and bring about "inventions for the benefit of mankind.” “The opportunities are there for you as they were for the pioneers who cut down trees in the wilder ness and made America great,” the Cardinal said. "To be leaders, you must make masterpieces of yourselves . . . you must become eons of God.” AT ROME GRADUATION-—Pictured above is the graduation class of St. Mary’s School, Rome. Left to right:.

The ladies were commended not only for getting their men to Mass at 8:30, but more particularly the ladies who prepared the breakfast were complimented by the Chair man. The ceremony began at 8:25 with procession of the Cub Scouts, Boy Seouts, the Officers of the Holy Name Society, and the mem bers; into Church, up the center aisle, and to the seats in the front. During Mass the special prayers were lead by Mr. M. J. MaGuire, our President, and Mass was cele brated by Father Cummins. The breakfast meeting was opened with prayer, and Mr. Mc Guire mentioned several items such as: the word from the New man Club that they were having a special Mass at Georgia Tech today and were unable to be present; it was announced that Charlie Armon had been appointed General Bag gage Manager for the Southern Railway. Our .program chairman, Mr. Clayton Burke, introduced the guest speaker, Rev. Raymond Healy, O.S.M., who talked on “The M aning of Education.” “We cannot give what we haven’t got, we can give if we are interested and enthused, we can give if we know what we are giv ing and thereby can give much better”, said Father Healy. There are, Father said, four general types of education: Spiritual, Mental, Moral (character), and Physical. Education is “Like trying to raise a flower without sunshine—like trying to give education without God”. Reparding Moral education Father Healy stressed the need for self-reliance, strength of char acter, discipline .of self, and sense of self responsibility. If we do not have these faucets of character we c-annot educate. We cannot give v/hat we haven’t got, therefore we have to have all of these before we, in turn, can give them to our children. Children imitate their parents and therefore It is neces sary for us to give good examples. Character is like pouring con crete into forms for a bridge,, the. concrete hardens then the forms are taken away and the columns remain strong and have character. So to, influence and points of character are used to form the character of our children, and when we pass away they remain strong and have character. In all things a healthy body, and a healthy mind are necessary. Father Healy believes that there has been too much emphasis on “Sports qua Sports” rather than Sports for physical education. He commended highly those who take up the teaching profession and compared them to Chirst who was always giving. The Treasurer’s report was made by Mr. John Cutliff. Mar shall Eddie Bouvette announced a total of 145 men received Holy Communion and 101 had breakfast. Guests were introduced. Mrs. W. Paul Carpenter and Miss Sarah Carpenter the Mother, and sister of Paul Carpenter are literature chairmans. Mrs. Thelma Pauljn, wife of Lee Paulin, our publicity chairman was present and Mr. Charles Moran. j The meeting was closed with 1 prayer. t Graduation Held At St. Mary's, Rome, on May 37 ROME, Ga.—Nine students of St. Mary’s School received cer tificates and twenty-three received awards for superior scholarship and attendance, at Graduation ex ercises held at St. Mary’s Church on Sunday afternoon, May 31.
