ur Principal Sister M Blanche Carmen Skeels, Mary Ann Green Association with the Academy for Sister Mary Blanche, our principal, goes back many years. As an alumna, mistress in the boarding school, as teacher of Latin, French and mathematics, and as directress for the past six years, Sister has given unstint- ingly of her time and enthusiasm to the cause of Catholic edu- cation in our local sphere of activity. Our Ursuline teachers, as daughters of St. Angela Merici, are well qualified to lead youthful souls to Christ through the educational principles laid down by the Saint of Brescia in her Counsels governing the training of young girls. No more posi- tive proof ot her purpose in founding the Ursuline Order can be furnished than that found in St. Angela's own words: For your part, recalling what your institute has done heretofore, do you apply yourselves still more ardently to your task, in form- ing the minds and hearts of young girls so as to make them one day mothers of families that are truly worthy of their Christian profession. The Ursuline ideal is today, as it was in the sixteenth century, to train teachers and conduct schools that neglect no branch of useful knowledge while they surround pupils with the safeguards and helps of religion that Christ's truth and grace may be ingrained as the firm and guiding principles of life.

C., to St. Ursula's has come Father King, our spiritual director and instructor in Christian Doctrine. Ordained to the priesthood a year ago, Father considers the privilege of teaching religion a sacred assignment. He is especially devoted to the Mother of God through his consecration as an Oblate of Mary Immaculate. Exercising his teaching and priestly functions, Father King has endeavored to cultivate in every girl, through the year's concentration on that conpendium of Catholic truth, the Apostles' Creed, strong convictions. We are indebted to him not only tor a greater knowledge ot our religion but also for an increased ability to explain it to those who are seeking the truth, as found in the One Holy Catholic Apostolic Church. 9
