We Capture the Spirit of the Pioneers MOTHER MARY MARK, Provincial Superior of the Sister of the Holy Names, with Sister Gerard Mary, Superior and Principal, examine the Jacksonville memorial books with Sister Mary Leonella of Marylhurst. Sister graduated from St. Mary's, then in Jacksonville, in 1887. She has been a Sister since 1891. BANNERS OF ST. MARY'S are held proudly as Bob Farra and Mary Lee Lowry represent the school in a Centennial Mass and assembly in St. Mary's, Portland. THE MOST REVEREND EDWARD D. HOWARD, Archbishop of Portland in Oregon, came for the centennial celebration. With him are the Very Reverend Carl Mai, pastor, and the Reverend Fathers Cornelius Linehan, John Ilg, Daniel Kelly, William Walsh, William McLeod, and Lawrence Eskay. Peaks of interest for the year were the triple Centennaries of State, Parish, and teaching community. Each in turn was emphasized. In late October, Bob Farra, senior president, Mollie Reavis, Sodality prefect, and Gary Kirsch, Letterrnen president, with Mary Lee Lowry of the eighth grade, represented St. Mary's at Student's day, held in the foundation house, St. Mary's of Portland. Medford stu- dents Were delighted to find their school one of the earliest. Returning, the students' enthusiastic accounts set the stage for local celebration of events more closely connected with school and parish. mafwf,x,g.:fgaw Q

Each de- mand calls for the best from everyone. ur Activities
