The really big project for Christmas was the redecorating of the Second Year College Classroom. Five or six collegians, aided by their classmates who could spare afew moments from their own jobs, complete- ly overhauled the classroom. Walls were patched and painted, the floor sealed and varnished, curtains were put up and new accessories were added. The classroom took on a stunning lustre compared to its former rather drab appearance. The Easter season, although less decorative than Christmas, brought with itwork chores which helped put everyone into aspirit of rejoicing for the great anniversary of Our Savior's conquest over death. Besides the varying weekly duties, there were assigned to certain students permanent work projects. Foremost among these were the duties ofsacristans, year book staff, and Prepster staff. The sacristans both in the main chanel and in the oratory spent the year enjoying the privileges and the graces of being able to work in the Presence of the Holy Eucharist. They were in charge of preparing the vestments and sacred vessels for Holy Mass each day and in general keeping the Chapel and Oratory in worthy condition for the Exalted Presence that dwells there. The yearbook staff labored all year to produce the fine results which are included in these pages. We are one of the few schools in the nation which completely assembles our own yearbook. inthe position of amember of the yearbook staff, students learn the skills of editing, printing, and photography. Much credit should go to the earnest lads behind the shutters and closed doors of the dark room who worked so diligently to prepare the photographs found in this book. The Prepster staff puts out our monthly publication, The Prepster. This, like its big brother, The Spes Gregis, afforded opportunities for the students to increase their skill in journalism. Both these publications are something which we can rightfully be proud of. Gther permanent duties include the workshops, paint shop, furnace rooms, and refectory. As is to be exspected, they were allwell-tended. This school year has been a wonderful year for us all, students and faculty. Through our work program we have all increased our spiritual attitudes just a little bit - the toil was well worth it. Forany instrument or means which can bring a soul closer to its Creator is an means to Good. Work is such an instrument, such a means. Q ? AI .. ia if w l dxf ' i 15 x I x ' i
