Father John A. Gaudet a.a., A.B. TEACHER OF ENGLISH Dear John, Oh! how I hate fo write (comps). Father John’s weekly and sometimes hi-weekly compositions did much more for us than we had anticipated. Youthful, and vigorous, he gained our respect from the start. His classes were interesting. Let s take our NIacheths. . . . ” A greater facility in our public speaking, a fine experience in debating, a belter appreciation of poetry, and a new interest in current world events were a few of the many fruits of his efforts. We will never forget the great interest and devotion with which Father John taught us so well the English language. Nor will we soon forget his genial, friendly attitude and his fine willing¬ ness to co-operate with us in all our undertakings. Mr. Lucien FI. Desjardins, A.M. TEACHER OF PHYSICS He looked business-like; and he meant business. Next class, we ’ll have a quiz —Mr. Desjardins was quick to find out what was wrong in NIath class. And his regular quizzes cured us all,— well, . . . almost all. He would fill his statements with expectant pauses. This is a — (no answer) — proportion”. Being a firm believer in success through hard work. Nlr. Desjardins accordingly passed on some of this to us. His Physics class will not soon forget his lucid explanations and his examples which were always a propos. ” Mr. Desjardins did not lack a good sense of humor. Chartier. you’re dreaming again. ” All questions received a smile, and then a full explanation. Thanks to Mr. Desjardins, we learned not only to work with numbers, but also to enjoy it. Mr. Raymond ]. Marion, A.M. TEACHER OF HISTORY ANT) CIVICS fn Mr. Marion, we had an instructor with a thorough knowledge of his subject matter. His classes were given in such a manner that the practical side of history could be seen. This man did not merely throw facts and dates at us. Time and again we were shown that those little things called fundamentals would be all-important to us. And so it was that tbe basic points which every American should know were stressed. Whether it concerned the flag, the constitution, or current national problems, the serious teacher tried to make us realize that as citizens, we should not be ignorant of facts so closely related to our country. Thanks to Mr. Marion, the United States means more to us. M. Louis Deschenes, A.M. PROFESSELT DE GREC Qu il animat ses classes de discussions litteraires, scientifiques, comiques ou politiques, M. Deschenes demeura toujours maitre de son art. Laique, au sourire amical, a la verve facile il se chargea de nous enseigner une langue dont la litterature manque aujourd’hui, helas, de I’appreciation meritee. Grace a sa connaissance des langues et de 1 histoire ancienne, il nous fit un cours interessant et instructif.

Kev. P. Gilbert Chahoi a.a., A.M. PROFESSEUR DE LATIN La tnalarlie avail allerre le P. Odilon. Qui le remplacerait? La taclie echut aux mains loujoiirs vigilantes du P. Gilbert. Oien sail comme il fit vivre ses cours de Ciceron et de Virgile. Voue a la culture, il signala I’luuTianisme des lalins beaucoup plus c(ue la lecb nicfue grammaticale. Le I ere Gilbert se fit, avanl lout cela. pretre et conseiller. Que de fois il s arretait sur un passage important pour en tirer une le .on qui, des lors, s ap|)liquait a nous. Oublierons nous de signaler ses quelques bouffonneries qui n avaient autre but que d animer ses classes?? Father Alexis Babinean a.a., Ph.D. PROFESSOR OF CHEMISTRY With bis long stride, be would step gingerly from one end of tbe black¬ board to tbe other, as he wrote his rapid-fire equations. Then, facing the class, he would lean on the desk, and with a smile playing on his lips, he would look searchingly into our eyes for a question mark. Finally, after a pause, there would come the inevitable Any questions, Mr. Noel? ’ From the day when he first walked into class and defined the science of Chemistry for us, down to his treatment of H2S04, he explained and clarified until we all understood. And yet, we sped through the book! Father Alexis has one of the great prerequisites of a scholar: the ability to simplify difficult problems. Here’s hoping that many more classes may have the good fortune of learning Chemistry with the help of his clear and simple explanations. Father Donat . Durand a.a., A.B. DIRECTOR OE ATHLETICS. ASSISTANT DEAN OF DISCIPLINE Father Donat was the most prominent figure in Assumption activities. We came in contact with him very often during the day. Among his numerous duties were those of monitor, athletic director, movie supervisor and assistant dean of discipline. He seemed to walk on cat’s feet as he patrolled either the study hall or dormitory. He never avoided work, but rather sought to improve everything about him. Anything with which ' Joe D.’ was connected functioned efficiently. Although this was his first year as a priest, he had gained a great deal of experience before he left for Washington. Upon returning last June he started working harder than ever before. His determination to straighten out everything was unsurpassed. Who could ever forget his familiar face, and the ever present tooth pick? Le Rev. P. Anselme Morrison a.a., A.B. - PROFESSEUR DE RELIGION Soil qu il mit a lepreuve ses forces surhumaines dans les travaux, soil qu il nous enseignat la morale en classe, le colossal Llarry resta un des profes- seurs les plus familiers. les plus aimes.
