Principal's Message

Dear Students,

As the school year approaches its climax, the series of

, public events that you have participat~d in, athletic, scholastic,

and cultural, is nearly complete.

I

At this time I am happy to express our gratitude for the

common student effort that has made the present scholastic year so

eminently satisfactory, and will, we hope, provide tangible evidence

that the over-all program of instruction and personal development

is effectively operating at St. Patrick's Hall School.

Most of you are only too keenly aware of the present need

for a thoroughly sound religious and academic training, which will

stand you in good stead throughout the years that lie ahead. The

one is as vital a need as the other, in fact they fuse and blend

into the ideal of a truly Catholic educated gentleman.

May your present fine spirit of good will, earnest appli­

cation to study, and pride in the furtherance of the good name of

your Alma Mater continue to grow apace. We can assure you that

your investment ~11 result in dividends beyond your wildest dreams

May God bless you always,

D.F. Nash

Rev. Br. D.F. Nash Principal

On the completion of Rev. Br. J.G. Shea's term of office word was received that Rev. Br. D.F. Nash had been appointed his successor.

Educated at St. Patrick's Hall School and St. Bona -venture's College, the new principal brings with him the happy combination of varied interests, and personal experience in cul tural, scholastic, and athletic activities, that have found ex -press~on in teaching assignments in both his native land and New York City.

Rev. Br. Nash acquired his early training as a Christian Brotter at St. Mary's College, New York, receiving his B.Sc. in Education at Fordham University and his M.A. in English at St. John's University, New York. He is presently completing his Doctorate in English at Ottawa University.

St. Patrick's Hall takes great pride in the appointment of a former ex-ouoil of the school. and the Patrician exnrAs~P.s I

Loyal sons of Patrick hail,

Our Alma Mater dear,

Fount of learning, Home of faith,

The Hall we all revere;

Royal banners to the fore

Round them shall we stand,

Steadfast to our colors,

And to God and native land.

Loyal sons of Patrick seek

To live St. Patrick's way;

Scholar, saint, and gentleman

In all we do and say.

Ever shall we stand by all

The fine ideals we knew,

Men of Patrick ever be

Courageou8, pure, and true.
