MARY C. MCMAHON sr. LUKE ' Silent and chaste she steals along, Far from the world's gay busy throng, With gentle yet prevailing force Intent upon her destined course. MARY, our sympathetic chum, has not only persevered in her own studies, but has ever stretched forth a willing hand to aid a classmate in need. This cheerful, fairfhaired graduate's first thought has always been for her school and class. She is so gentle that all openly respect and admire her. Perseverance and unselfishness have lent her a distinctive charm to which she may attrif hute her past successes, forerunners of her future achievements. MARY AGNES MCSHANE HOLY FAMILY-ANNEX 2 GLEE CLUB-129, '30 ATHLETIC CLUBml29, '31 PRESIDENT-'27, '28 SECRETARY-Q29 Good humour only teaches charms to last Still makes new conquests, and maintains the past. DNLY once in a long span of years does one meet the ideal optimist, and such a person is Mary. Why worry? is the motto to which she has adhered during her schooldays. Cath' edral's teams have not a more enthusiastic supporter, and athletics rank second position in Mary's consideration. First? Who has not seen those dancing feet as Mary willingly en' tertained her admiring, lessftalented classmates? Beyond that veil which conceals the future years, great things lie in store for this little classmate of ours, and, as we hid her Farewell, we extend to her our wishes for a broad field of action.

SHEILA MARY MCHUGH INCARNATION An angelfwatered lily That near God Grows and is quiet. AMONG the personalities which flash through school life, the beauty of this quiet nature may have been overlooked. Yet we all know that this maiden with her musical Irish name possesses the qualities which make Catholic womanhood beloved. She is modest and gentle with that intrinsic refinement of nature which cannot be acquired at any instif tution since it is innate. We feel that the future holds much happiness for you, Sheila, and the years will bring you ever nearer to the Divine Heart of Christ. 1 .

Sixtyfeiglxt MARGARET RITA MAGUIRE AscBNs1oN DRAMATIC CLUB-'30, '31 VICE-PRBSIDENT',27 RECEPTION COMMITTBE-'30, '31 Truth is within ourselves. CATHEDRAL portals opened wide-and in she stepped, this boyish miss, bobbed of hair and swift of gait. The roll was called, and ever since she has been our affable Margaret. She possesses that unusual combination of being candid and unaggressive at once. Her versatile nature was ably manifested in her portrayal of the brusk Captain of the Roman Guard in the Christmastide performance. In study she has always been excellent, ex' cept for those Latin sight translations, which ruffled her even disposition and endangered her happy attitude. Good luck, Margaret, may success always attend on your footsteps! VIOLA MARY MAISTRE sr. Josam, WAVERLY PLACE GLEE CLUB-'-S31 Far, may we search before we find A heart so modest and so kind.
