removed from all the distracting influences of a city to
secure that seclusion which is so necessary for the prosecu-
tion of studies; yet it is not too remote to enjoy its con-
veniences and accommodations. While parents confiding
to us their children .do not expect to find here all the latest
improvements that may be found in the great Colleges of
the principal cities of the country they appreciate that
their children though possessing all the advantages neces-
sary to keep their 'bodies healthy can receive here an edu-
cation free from the too great indulgence and comfort
that in no way tend to turn out men capable of
endurance sacrifice and enterprise such as the educational
institutions of past ages have given to the world.
uIn this country every one gets a mouthful of. educa-
tion" said Th. Parker "but scarcely any one a full meal."
Sacred Heart College aims at giving to its scholars a full
meal of education; what is taught is taught thoroughly;
the curriculum is not overcrowded as may be seen on in-
specting the prospectus. "It is better to know much of a
few things than a little of many things:" (Edward Brooks)
is our motto.
As to the terms for both day-scholars and boarders they
are very moderate and within the reach of the least privil-
eged families. All those who have passed through Sacred
Heart College have kept in grateful remembrance what has
been done for them at their Alma Mater and true to the
inscription on the College's seal : "In Virtute et Constantia ' '
they have persevered as far as we know to act upon the
principles of rectitude honesty and virtue which zealous
and devoted masters tried to inculcate on their tender
hearts and willing minds. May they always remember
o Sacred Heart as they are and will be remembered there!
