,L S yqfwf Rr. Rlzv, Lmviuawcgiz Vous. O. S. B. ww, awww Gaclm 0.41 of cfm a aaa O Our earliest association with St. lietle was through the aclministration, the contact men who were about seeing why we were eoming to St. Becle. The first grueling clay as freshmen is still a bitter memory mixetl with confusion, faces we scarcely remember, those of the many who haxe fallen by the waysicle on the journey of four years. But out of the confusion of thoughts of our- selves as freshmen, a picture of some kintl of ortler materializes antl we beholcl the mature sophomore, the sophisticated junior, antl the ancient ancl wise senior, Mixetl with these thoughts are many, goocl ancl not so pleasant, of black habits and the men who wear them -a pic- ture or pictures of men struggling to bring orcler out of chaos for the incliviclual ancl the group. The aclministration, the office force, the pre- fects, ancl the faculty as a whole emerge. after four years of association, looking somewhat alll-- ferent than they tlitl to our eyes on that first Sep' tember morning four years ago when our eyes were cloucletl by the results of partings from home antl former frientls, ancl by the haze that clouclecl our freshmen mintls. Shoulcl we be able to stay another four years, our picture of these men might change somewhat, but we are leaving now antl so woulcl like to re- member them as we saw them last. These pittures alone will be sufficient to bring back memories that will crowcl out for .1 moment any trcfulwles that may be before us. Ns?

OFFICE FORCE 0 FATHER VICTOR Bfzmzr O FATH ren NICHNOLAS Keglrlrar 0 FATHER james Prizzripal FDUIQ YEAIQS HAVE DAIIED IQAIDIIDLY FUD THE Four years ago-seems like a long time. Eng- land was at war, but we had not yet joined the allies. President Roosevelt was talking of peace. Abbot Justus was the president of St. Bede and the monastery building was nearing completion. That was in September, the year we began our high school careers. 'hhff IENIUIQI International, national, and much smaller events of importance were happening all over the world and we felt them too. But our life through these four years were consumed mostly by the smaller things. We were growing up under a dis- cipline and routine that are to fit us for our life in the years to come. O Within this routine and discipline there have been and are many things that we will want to remember, many of them the horrors of the moment. For the day students the rude awakening in the morning to catch the bus, for the boarders the first sound ot the bell in the dormitories, were the low- est part of the day, as far as appreciation was concerned. The mad dash for chapel will be something of a torture in our memories for many years. Breakfast, beds to be made, an early morning smoke-the morning was on. iii, page ten
