F airest of M others, we dedicate this T rib u te of 1955 to You.
our lovely Q ueen of Hawaii. T he flowering beauties which surround
us in our Island home are a living rem inder of the virtues which
radiated from Your im m aculate soul while on earth, enriching
the lives of those around You. We beg to share in these virtues
th at our lives may be pleasing to the E ternal Blossom W hom
You bore.

Like the Torch Ginger, You are the flaming beacon guiding
us to Christ.

Like the Hibiscus, sharing its beauty and nobility with rich
and poor alike, You are the perfect model of humility.

Like the heavily-scented white Pikake, sweetening the air
w herever it breathes, Y our purity is the w orld’s fairest fragrance,
so richly perm eating, yet treasured by so few'.

Like the C u p of C old, so large, so delicately lined, Your
h e a rt is w orldw ide in its charity, and sensitively attu n ed to the
needs of the souls and hearts of Your children everywhere.

Like the Night-blooming Cereus, You cause new hope and
grace to blossom forth in a world m ade dark by sin and war.

We, princes and princesses of so lovely a Q ueen, desire to be
like You; praying that we too, m ay blossom forth into perfect
Christians, inheriting the Kingdom of Your Son.

Aloha Oe E Malia.

My dear Seniors:

Your graduation is an important day for you, and
rightly so. You have spent considerable time in a Catholic
school and now you should be ready to move into an adult
world.

Do not forget the lessons learned at Maryknoll High
School. Every subject has had its influence, practical or
cultural. Your classes in religion have given meaning to
your life, your studies, and your recreation. With this back­
ground your life should be happy and successful.

Success is not guaranteed simply because you have had
a Catholic education. Everything possible has been done to
prepare you for your future, but what you make of your
life depends on your application and your adherence to
principle.

May Our Blessed Lady be a guide and intercessor

throughout your lives. She has given glory to God by her

humble and holy life and will assist you to lead a worthy

life. Turn to her regularly in prayers and God will bless you

generously.

Faithfully yours,

JAMES J. SWEENEY
Bishop of Honolulu

Pastor of Sacred Heart Church

Dear Graduates, i
A t a tim e when the Q ueenship of O u r Blessed M other has been recently pro­
\
claim ed, I am sure th a t it is a tim ely and p ro p er title th a t you are giving to her,
I' as your own T R IB U T E . O U R LADY O F H A W A II as a title holds such special
significance th at I w onder why the title was not expressed long, long ago. As you
know, O u r Blessed M other has m ade her lovely presence felt from the earliest
missionary days of our Islands. The very first Catholic missioners, priests, Brothers
and Sisters were members of the Society of the Sacred H earts of Jesus and M ary;
then came the M arianist Brothers and priests, later the priests, Brothers and Sisters
of M aryknoll, as also the priests of the Society of M ary. We could go on of course
w ith the list including the Sisters of N otre D am e, etc., b u t this is to be a short letter.

T o Jesus th ro u g h M ary is the m otto of our beloved Bishop, and in this little
farewell I could not wish you anything better than th at your life have th at m otto
as its directive.

And so, as we say aloha— God speed to an o th er class, we send you forth under
the protective m antle of O U R LADY O F H A W A II. M ay you always be conscious
and attentive to the protective help th at she will surely give you. And be assured
always th at our good wishes, prayers and blessings follow you— th at you m ay serve
her Divine Son faithfully— until we all come happily to rejoice in the realm of the
Q ueen of H eaven— O u r Lady of Hawaii. A loha and God bless you.

Sincerely yours in Christ,

‘"The secret of success is constancy to pu rp o se.”
T he tru th of this statem en t is personified in
Lieutenant Clarence Hoe, our Professor of M ili­
tary Science and Tactics, who, after five years of
hard work has finally seen his vision of a m ilitary
unit realized.

W hat began in 1950 as a non-uniform ed group
of 80 cadets has grown in numbers, organization,
leadership and discipline u ntil on O cto b er 24,
1954, it was recognized by the Secretary of the
A rm y as an established Ju n io r Reserve Officers
Training Corp unit.

T h e u n it’s peak of perfection was reached this
year during the parade in honor of Sister M iriam
T herese’s feast day. Officers w ith sabres and rifle-
equipped enlisted men showed skill in precision
m arching, while the sponsors, attractive in their
new uniforms, added life to the already color­
ful unit.

Officers, cadets, sponsors and their guests
shared the enjoym ent of the annual M ilitary Ball,
“A t Y our C om m and,” held D ecem ber 3, at the
Ala W ai Clubhouse.

C ongratulations and best wishes to all for
success in the years ahead!
