Eighty MARY AGNES O'DONNELL sT. THOMAS Ti-na APOSTLE sP1REs sTAFF4'31 LITERARY CLUB-'30, '31 PRESIDENT-Q28 V1CE'PRESIDENT-l27, '28 Genteel in personage, conduct and equipage, Noble by heritage, genemus and free. WE possess a secret which we believe we are free to disclose now at graduation time. Perhaps some have wished to probe into the reason for Mary's successes. , She is liked by all because of her unselfishness and broadfmindedness. Never too timid to state and uphold her opinions, Mary has proven herself invaluable to her class, especially in history. We dare anyone to name a day that she did not receive perfect marks in all her lessons. There never was such a time, for nearest to Mary's heart is faithfulness to her scholastic pursuits. - Virtue is its own reward, but we believe Mary's will evoke many more compensations. CATHERINE MARGARET O'ROURKE - RBSURRECTION ATHLETIC CLUB-'30, '31 How poor they are who have not patience, What wound did ever heal but by degrees? CATHERINE'S patient, noiseless ways are truly sweet, but sweeter still is the calmness of her countenance, on which no shade of an' noyance has thus far appeared. Perhaps her happy nature has influenced such external serenity. Her calmness has soothed us in hours of dull routine, yet soothed us more in moments of perturbation. We sincerely hope that time will not alter the even tenure of her ways, so that her career will be as meritorious as her life has been in Hughes Memorial.
