Collegians who maiored in Commerce learned the fine points ot Economics from Father Augustine, who is pictured below with a group of his students as they listened to discourse on Banking delivered by Sarlitto. Experimental demonstrations were an integral part of the high school chemistry course taught by Father Hilary, who is shown below with some of the members of his class, for whose benefit Father Hilary was giving a vivid visual ex- planation ot the process of fractional distillation. When Father Hilary was not occupied with his Chemistry class he was kept busy with his duties as Procurator of the monastery and Director of the Brothers of the Abbey.
