Mind Even after the school day had ended, this continual character-building plan of theirs was carried out in the C.S.M.C. and other extra-curricular activities. During the seasons of football, basketball, track and other sports, these men stood, watched and planned our future development according to a truly Catholic Standard. We learned under their guidance and advice, the fundamen- tal elements of character that will steady us in the tempest of the future. The knowledge of self-confidence and unselfishness was given to us. We learned how to appreciate and how to sympathize. These men molded all of the man- ners, valuable in later years, into our being. From our constant association with the faculty members, we acquired habits that will lead us with hard work and study near the peak in our various fields. But in giving just praise to these soldiers of Mary for the development of our spiritual and moral side of nature, we have almost forgotten the credit due them for the knowledge they have taught us. We, the students, shall always thank these men who have taught us so much by their patience, wit, charity, filial devotion to the Blessed Virgin and many other virtues. May we always see the hand of Christ in every action as they do. So, to the soldiers of Chaminadef' we can simply say in all sincerity, Thanks, and God bless you. Iohn A.

Senior A at worlc . Moulders of Our instructors weren't satisfied in giving us the usual schooling. They also drilled us on how to become better men from the information which we gained from our different studies. We were taught the art of accurate reason- ing through the different forms of mathematics. The history of our beloved coun- try showed to us what part we are to play as citizens for the guarding of our priceless heritage. ln Religion we found a deep feeling of satisfaction and peace, knowing our future would be secure in the hands of God. ln our language courses, we saw the different customs, styles and people of the many other countries of the world. These men did everything that they could to secure for us the happiness that everyone seeks. Unselfish in their own interest, each one gave a small part of his life to us as individual students. Their little hidden virtues became ours for unconsciously we imitated them, as they stood at the black-board, or sat at their desk. Imiortiw A, Mc!-Xvoy, S.M. Edward P. Malone, S.M. Bernard I.

FACULTY MEMBERS IN THE SERVICE lst Lt. Robert Lensch 2nd Lt. Roland Myers 2nd Lt. George Early America callsl Chaminade responds! In the personage of George Early, Roland Myers, and Robert Lensch, our Alma Mater is represented in the services of our nation. These men have gone forth with the spirit of Chaminade imbeded in them, to help keep democracy alive in the Godless world of today. On April 29, George Early graduated from the Officers Training School at Camp Lee, Virginia, and received his commission as second Lieutenant in the United States Army. For two months Lt. Early will be stationed at Camp Lee for field training. From there, the future is veiled by an opaque cloth which time alone will remove. Lieutenant Roland Myers is doing his part for the U. S. at Camp Claborne, Louisiana. He just finished Motorization School in Atlanta, Georgia, and was graduated as a Motor Maintenance Gfficer. On February 14, Lt. Myers stepped across the threshold of Matrimony to start a new phase of life with Miss Doris Haines. Captain Robert Lensch has been stationed in the frigid temperature of Sitka, Alaska, aiding our forces in the defense of one of our far-flung possessions. We solemnly pray that these men will be protected from the obvious fate of hateful war. 12
