SERVE GCD ON OUR CAMPUS The front entrance of Academy Hall is a familiar sight to these students since they frequently pass it to and from their daily visit to the chapel of Our Lady of Seven Dolors. Each morning they offer their pray- ers, works, joys. and sufferings of the day and unite them with the precious Offering. in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Daily visits to Our Lord and His Blessed Lady in the chapel are the fervent practices of every true A.H.A, student. Standing in the quadrangle. attired in a pageant of trees and flowers and touched by a sunlit crest, is the beautiful statue of the Sacred Heart of jesus, forever a constant rea minder of His Fatherly pro- tection and divine love for us. Most Sacred Heart of jesus, enkindle the fire of Thy Divine Love within each of us, that we may, for all etern- ity, praise thy Holy Name.

Our Lady showers abundant graces on her devoted children, who take such loving care of her grotto. Ever-willing, they are happy to help make the shrine of their heavenly Mother deservingly beautiful. O Holy Mary, Mother of God, take me under thy blue mantle, this day and for- ever. CELESTIAL PATRONS HELP us TO HEAVENLY THRONES, from thy realm, fill our campus with celestial strains of golden music. May your holy presence ever bind us together, for thou art the angels of PEACE. Peaceful as silent sentinels, these ancient sycamores con- tribute much to the beauty of the campus and the dignity of Academy Hall. Their leafy boughs, reaching heavenward, seem to implore Almighty God to bestow His Eternal Benediction upon our students. One glance at our Auditorium building is a glance at a monument of memories. Here have been originated and produced events and activities which long will be remembered and cherished by every A.H.A. student. Of all the concerts, plays, meetings, dis- cussions, dances, and welcomed visitors brought here, each con- tributes its share in giving to the students the knowledge, enjoy- ment, and appreciation of good times necessary for a well-rounded Catholic education.
