Whether the material found herein is worthwhile or whether it is just love s labor lost we leave to our readers to judge. If this little book will make its readers heart swell with recollections of happy days sp nt within the hallowed walls of our Alma Mater- it it will awaken pleasant memories of happy school days and enkindle kindly thoughts of the institution and of the dear Sisters who next to God and our parents are responsible for the education we now enjoy- our efforts in preparing our Annual will certainly not be futile but on the contrary they will be graciously rewarded and thus a feeling of appreciation and satisfaction will be ours. We have an ulterior motive in compiling this Year Book and a hope for its success, namely: that the students of the Academy of today and in the future seeing the accomplishments of their pre- decessors might be urged to emulate their example. What has been accomplished in this little annual may not be a great deal, but at least something has been achieved. The tradition which the young- er students must continue is but slight, but at least there is a tradition established. 0 O fkl' -- fl' if 1 t at ' V ,- I 0 0 ' . 0 . . .. , ,, . ' N' I 0 .

Class H1StOIY The pioneer days of the present '39ers were thosee of the Freshmen year. amidst new and surprising surroundings and peoples. we stood on the bottom step looking up at the one goal which all of us would strive to accomplish, knowing we would stumble ever so often, encouraged however, by the thought that one day we would reach the top. Little time was taken to become acquainted with one another, for we were soon known as the friendly class , and began to win notice from our upper class- men. Just when we were beginning to feel proud and important, our Public Enemy No. 1 namely the Juniorsj had to come forth with their old tradition of initiating. Scared stiff, and trying every means to avoid it, finally we acknow- ledged this tradition with dull apprehension. Our memories will never fail us in remembering this day! We could not be stopped however, from out-doing the other classes in our studies and socials. Some real leaders and eager followers were among us Freshies! With the return of another year, we filed into the classroom as the Happy Sophomores . With a whole summer's vacation behind us we were filled with brilliant ideas that had to be cast aside. since our program was studded with new sub- jects-Algebra, Ancient History and Spanish. COf all thingslj We were puzzled by these startling subjects that our spirits were somewhat dampened before the year even began. Knowing something had to be done, we unanimously adopted this motto: When you've reached the end of your rope, tie a knot and hold on . From then we toed the chalk line . As Juniors we had only one thought in mind, We initiate the Freshies . What a grand affair we wanted this to be, And what joy we did get in seeing the newly acquired Freshies run when they saw us, We expanded under this exercised power, becoming the Cruel Juniors , and believe it or not we actually liked this terrible name of ours and laughed over the whole matter. English became our favorite class and Shakespeare our one and only . We drifted through The Tempest and The Merchant of Venice hoping against hope that maybe some day we might be a credit to our teacher. Now we are Seniors waiting on the topmost step for the signal to go forward when we graduate, for we find that there are other steps to climb before we can reach that bridge of eternal life. Our minds are centered on thoughts of the future, still we try to show bv good example and work that the one thing in life is the . N performance of our duties. We have made a Senior compact called the Compact of 39 , wherein we proclaimed ourselves everlasting friends and boosters of our be- loved Alma Mater: helpers and advisors to our under-graduates and steadfast partn- ers to one another. Wistfully we look back at all our little mistakes and triumphs and our hearts ache when we realize the happy days that composed our four years of high school are gone. We are standing at the end of the trail and are looking back at what has been the happiest journey of our lives. It is with reluctance that we say good-bye to our Alma Mater and take the other road that leads into the world. With love in our hearts we bid farewell to Reverend Mother, to B. S. A., and the dear Sisters who have helped us win our goal, and our parting resolution is to go forth, always keeping as our life compass, the standards of our Alma Mater. Beatrice Duffin '39 Page Eighteen M4 SENIORS Seniors ..... They are angels in truth, a demon in fiction .... A senior's the greatest of all contradiction: They're afraid of a cockroach, the're scream at a mouse, But they'll tackle a Iunior as big as a house. They'll take us for better, they'll take us for worse: They'll split our heads open and then be our nurse: : And when we are well and can get out of bed, They'll pick up a book and throw it at our head. They're faithful, deceitful, keen sighted and blind, They're crafty, they're simple, they're cruel, they're kind, They'11 lift us up, they'll cast us down, They'll make us their heroine, their ruler, their clown. We fancy they're this but, we find out that they're that, For they'll play like a kitten and fight like a cat. In the morning they will, in the evening they Won't, And we're always expecting they will but they won't. The Iuniors. Page Nineteen B583 Lk C I U 'L W .

I am sure there cannot be, for in it we find the sublime and awe-inspiring work of the great Author and Creator of all true splendor. This is especially true of our dear old Alma Mater wherein a certain peaceful atmosphere is found, shutting out all the evil surroundings of a too modern world. On entering our Academy campus, one is attracted by the fifteen-acre plot. adorned with various kinds of trees, shrubs. flowers and pretty hedges here and there. Noise and unsettled condition are not heard or seen, for the location of our school 4 some distance from the dangers of the city life. Due to the exclusiveness of this site, a full view of our modern Academy is not discernable from the main road, hence a greater amount of privacy is obtained. A long curved drive leads to the entrance of the school and on all sides there are vast and spacious grounds, with lovely flower be-decked paths leading to un- expected benches covered by vines of fragrant Queen's Crown. Such paths also lead to the main attraction of the land, the Grotto of Our Blessed Lady, which the students and visitors can never resist visiting. Many a petition has been heard in answer to prayers said there. Near this grotto. only a small distance away, is the river which we so often frequent. Hours and hours have been spent there in dreaming, reading and in rollicking fun. What more could we demand of Nature to complete this scene of beauty and grandeur? On the East side of the building we find the playground which is well fitted with modern equipment for play conveniences. Thus surrounded by this ever developing and inspiring work of God, our souls are enobled with refined culture of lasting endurance, To our minds are I 0 9 ff TIT? ' rags if . S O C . .

This beautiful tribute to the late Holy Father, Pius XI. has won the hearts of the American people. through the media of the radio and press. both secular and religious. Every line of this small poem, from the pen of an internationally known poet-priest. is laden with the genuineness of America's sorrow at the loss of our Supreme Pontiff. Page Twenty -One 9' A Tnbute to The Holy Father The Church is ever militant: somctimes she gains' sometimes she loses: and with the latter in mind we sadly recall the death of His Holiness, Pope Pius IX which occurred on February 10 1939. This is a loss not only to the Catholic Church and its 400,000 000 communicants but to the whole world since his charity extended far beyond the great Church of which he was the head and to all mankind. His passing from this earthly life came at a time when he is so sorely needed: a time of strife and bitter tumult amidst which he stood imperturb- able and calm preaching love and fraternity to nations that were aroused through mutual hate. With rare power and eloquence he vindicated in his Encyclicals the rights of the individual man, of the family and of labor. This last he did by fearlessly opposing Atheistic Communism, Nazism and Fascism and warning the world against them though by so doing he incurred the displeasure of several European rulers. His Holiness was a tower of strength in a changing world, and his earnest efforts to promote world peace and his enthusiastic advocations of social justice made him respected by men of all political and religious faiths. He sought peace while all nations around him wanted war and he will be forever remembered as the greatest champion of human rights that our age has ever known for his was the first voice of international significance to be raised in behalf of a persecuted and down-trodden race and in protestation against ruthless force. In Pius XI we find the qualities of a real Saint: sanctity, nobility and indomitable courage. His whole life as a Supreme Pontiff was one of forthright courage and this fearlessness of his personality was his outstanding mark. His forward honesty of dealing with nations was based not on a policy of mere chance, but upon principle. That was the guidance in all his actions. This profound scholar, and magnificent source of spiritual light and inspiration has covered every phase of human well-being and happiness in his great encyclicals to the world. He encouraged all new things that are good. as evidenced in the honor he paid to men of science and in the use he made of the instruments of science notably the radio. History will give him the title of great, and classify him as one of the most scholarly Pontiffs of the ages. He was really, in a most literal sense, a man of God. His Holiness was not only a great ecclesiastic but a great statesman as well... The Pope was a true philosopher of peace.. .not emotional but rational. His wzas a clear. plain, fatherly voice in a frenzied and angry tumult and perhaps now that that voice is stilled in death. the world, crazed with international hatred, will stop for a moment .in its mad course, to ponder the solemn lessons of peace which he proclaimed with such power. All of us have lost a powerful champion of freedom, tolerance and humanity. -Cecelia Casso Page Twenty-Two IW O f 'U f BBQWR . . , . O O . 0 , O ' I o O . ' , , C ' I C O N ll O J ,..

POPE PIUS XI 'Behold. a High Priest who in his days was pleasing to God and was found just in the time of wrath he was made a reconciliation. These words from the Roman Breviary are a scriptural biography of our beloved Holy Father. Pius XI, whose passing from our midst has left the entire world in mourning. History shows that for every world crisis an ever watchful Divine Providence has moulded a figure who was qualified to save the human race from its own self-destruction. Such a figure was Pius Xl. Our Divine Master spent thirty of His thirty-three years in the hidden life: so too it was the will of the Divine Master that Achille Ratti, the humble weaver's son, who was in due time to reign over His Church as His Vicar upon earth. should spend 61 of his 81 years in comparative obscurity before he was elevated to a position in the international spiritual affairs of the Church. These sixty-one years embrace his life as a seminarian. his priestly ordination, his six years as a professor in the Seminary of Milan. his twenty-five years of service with the Ambrosian Library of Milan, his three and a half years as Prefect of the Vatican Library. No one. least of all Achilles Ratti himself. would have thought that these sixty one years devoted largely to academic pursuits were to be his preparation for the Papacy. In the course of time he was held in the highest esteem by the very limited and select group of international scholars whose sole interest in life is learning. But learning was not the only field to occupy the talents of Don Achilles Ratti. For him devoted six years of training and moulding of priestly vocations in the Seminary of Milan and at the same time was appointed the first chaplain of the newly formed convent of the Society of our Lady of the Cenacle. This Society had been established in order to foster spiritual retreats among women of the laity and as their chief instrument in carrying out this work they were to use the Spiritual Exercises of Ignatus of Loyola. For thirty years of his life in Milan Achilles Ratti was closely associated with this work of the Cenacle. From his long experience with the Spiritual Exercises he became imbued with the philosophy of spiritual combat and with the practice of soldiery bravery and discipline against all evils I ' . O O O O . sacerdotallzeal and personal santification were always of prime importance. He 1 Z which threaten our souls. He was not one of that race of scholars who are unaware of the world outside their books. But his interests were always universal. that touched man failed to interest him. From the quiet of the Seminary and library he looked out upon the world not only with the penetrating acumen of a great mind but with the compasionate heart of a saint and with the courage of a leader. Nothing The sixty-one years of preparation were now complete and it remained for Don Achilles Ratti to enter into the public stage of international affairs. The great War Pope, Benedict XV of happy memory, set the stage for Don Achilles Ratti. In 1918 the Bishops of Poland requested Benedict XV to send out an official from Rome to consult with them about the religious restoration of their country which was now in the process of the national union. To his great surprise Don Achilles Ratti himself was chosen for this delicate mission. How well he accomplished his task is evident from the fact that he him- self became the first nuncio to Warsaw and was consecrated titular Archbishop of Lepanto. During these years Poland was menaced by the Bolchevist Red hordes of Russia until the very walls of Warsaw were threatened. Archives and govern- ment offices were transferred elsewhere. The hour had come when there was no Page Twenty-Three time -YP' it ,.u 'vc the representative of Benedict XV wouldn't leave but remained to pray with a stricken people. Prophetic of his future Pontificate, he stood for the first time face to face against atheistic invasion. Bravely he stood with the Christian armies in the most desperate hour, until the tide turned and the Polish military leaders finally emerged victorious. Achilles Ratti had been tried in a dangerous crisis and was not found wanting. He was pleasing to God and was found just. 1921 his mission to Poland was successfully completed and within the next twelve months the designs of Divine Providence worked in great haste. Benedict XV appointed Achilles Ratti to the vacant Archbishopric of Milan and made him a member of the Sacred College. Then suddenly and unexpectedly came the end for the Holy Father, Benedict XV, the strain of the World War had broken his physical frame and after a very short illness the news of his death on January 22 1922. shocked a war-torn world. But the throne of Peter cannot remain vacant. What happened is now .matter of history. The Sacred College assembled in Conclave elected Achilles Cardinal Ratti as the 26lst successor of St. Peter. He accepted the election and than said There is something else. I protest before the members of the Sacred College that I have at heart the safeguarding and the defense of the rights of the Church and all the prerogatives of the Holy See: that being said I wish that my first blessing should go out, as a pledge of that peace for which humanity is longing not only to Rome and to Italy but to the whole Church and the entire world I shall give it from the outside balcony of Saint Peter's No longer was he Achill es Ratti, but he was Pius XI by every title, divine, legal and historic the 26lst successor of Peter, the 26lst Vicar of Christ upon earth. In this new capacity as Vicar of Christ he pledged himself to peace, he offered himself as a Ureconcilia tion in the time of wrath.' On the 23rd of December 1922. less than ten months after his election Pope Pius XI issued his first Encyclical letter known as the Ubi Arcano Dei In language severly simple and clear itself. All efforts to obtain that active fruitful peace which all desire had come to naught. In the near East there were fresh threats of War: in Europe, although the weapons of war had been laid aside, the old jealousies had not died down but the victors were still at war with the vanquished and were mutually hostile among themselves. In every rank of society, the minds of men were restless. embittered and sullen. Womanhood was given way to levity and trasgressing the limits of moral decency. Everywhere apathy idleness and thirst for luxurious living were rampant. Human society seemed to be turning back to the savagery of barbarism. And whence all this evil? B - cause man has apostatized from God. God's will has no longer a place among men in public affairs and in public life of nations. God is banished from that pact which is the very foundation of all society, namely marriage, thus allowing life and civilization to be poisoned at their very source. God has no longer his due place in education which concerns itself chiefly with the matter of a successful career while religion has become secondary. And whence the remedy? In an age of shallowness when too often whatever is novel receives the Stamp of approval merely because it is novel, the Holy Father proposes nothing new but stands by the ancient truth. Touchingly he pleads that man once again faithfully accept the teaching and commandments of Christ in matters of public life no less than in private life of the individual. Or Christ reigns over the minds of individual men, over the family, over the nations and over the Church. i'We shall strive, he said, A'With every effort to seek the peace of Christ in the reign of Christ . Pax Christi in regno Christi! Thus in the first year of his Pontificate he proclaimed himself as a reconciliation in the time of wrath. During the seventeen years of his reign he strove valiantly against world- wide odds to bring to the nations this peace through the reign of Christ.

To the clergy he issued a reminder that they must be the salt of the earth and the light of the world , setting forth again the Christian ideals of sanctity, zeal and learning which they must attain. In order to demonstrate to the world that his teaching is not mere impossible theory but that the Church over which he reigns as Christ's Vicar justly claims sanctity as one of her distinctive marks. he saw fit to enroll formally a number of her sons and daughters among the saints in heaven. To a world which unfortunately has degraded marriage to the level of paganism. he explains the beauty and efficacy of the Christian ideal of marriage. stressing its permanency and divine purpose against the pagan practices of divorce, contracep- tion and sterilization. To a world in which education has deteriorated into mate- rial experimentation he clearly propounded the Christian principles and objectives to be borne in mind in the training of youth. Echoing the words and genius of Leo XIII. he speaks to the worshippers of Mammon. reminding that by their greed they have seriousley impaired the structure of society and brought about the present day industrial collapse because they enslaved the workingman and the poor in a manner most brutal and unchristian. Fearlessly he defended the rights of the Church against encroaching governments. For the Holy See he demanded only such restitution of temporalities as would be necessary for Vicar of Christ to preserve his immunity in order to carry out his spiritual mission unhampered. Finally the Lateran Treaty was signed between the Holy See and the Italian Govern- ment, thus solving a problem which for 59 years had occupied the minds of churchmen and statesmen. But there was much I0 sadden the heart of our Holy Father, Pius XI. In certain countries not only were children persecuted because of their Catholic Faith but there arose open defiant campaigns against God. W must face the terrible social and economic upheaval throughout the world. Nations are ready to go to war because of the intrigue and unscrupulous greed for power of international politicians. Above all the din and confusion of the world, the voice of Pius XI fearlessly denounced the building of armaments, the oppression of the poor and the open defiance of the moral law. And if today we hear from all sides that God took him from our midst just when his wise counsel and guidance were needed most. it is because as the Vicar of Christ he towers far above his fellowmen to the very throne of heaven, as the sole authoritative bulwark of truth against error, of the moral against the inmoral, of the cultured against the vulgar. of the op- pressed against the tryants of greed and power. In brief, he was the sole authori- tative bulwark of Christian civilization against pagan barbarism. His noble O O O 2' T 'i TI? .

With the genius of Leo XIII. the holiness of Pius X, the tact of Benedict XV and the courage of Gregory VII he has won the undying admiration and gratitude of the world. His last mortal words were a prayer for peace. The designs of Divine Providence in his regard are now fulfilled. He died as he lived, a recon- ciliation in the time of wrath. We who are now his orphaned children in deep sorrow offer our tribute of filial love. devotion and obedience. But the throne of Peter cannot remain vacant. Very soon there will be another Vicar of Christ. We implore Divine Providence that he may continue what Pope Pius XI has be- gun so well, that he also may be. as was Our Holy Father. Pius XI, a reconcilia- tion in the time of wrath. U. S.

Page Twenty-Six O O O I O I I O X JY The Propagahon of The Fcuth Every Catholic child should possess a mite box just to remind him that he ought to make little sacrifices once in a while in order that his less fortunate sisters and brothers located in missionary sections might have the consolation of religion. How edifying to see Catholic children saving their pennies to help missionaries to spread the teaching of Christ among pagans. Let us then put our pennies and little sacrifices for this noble cause in the bank for eternity. Undoubtedly, it will produce an interest that eternal years cannot exhaust. We must remember the Master addressed these words, especially, to the poor and destitute. As long as you did it to one of these. you did it unto Me. Our Holy Father, Pope Pius XII. also loves the poor and forlorn. consequently, he will be glad to receive our little donations to enable him to distribute aid to those who are ' great need of assistance. We proudly claim to be Catholics. and rightly so: hence, our opportunity to prove our loyalty to our Holy Mother Church-our Guiding Star. Our Academy took a lively interest in the Propagation of the Faith last year. the first year of its organization in our midst. realizing a very satisfactory sum. for which our Instructor in religion. Reverend Father Morkovsky, expressed his deep appreciation for the self-sacrificing efforts of the pupils for the cause of the mis- sion. We are measuring up to an equal amount this year 1939. Our Holy Father's appeal for aid we cannot possibly resist Hence. with joy and alacrity do we willingly assist! THE SODALITY OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY At the commencement of the school year the Sodality of the Virgin Mary was reorganized, to become quickly a vital influence among the students. Every Friday morning the members gather in the convent chapel and recite the office of the Blessed Virgin Mary. These sodalists have taken an active part in all religious practices and spiri- BEER O O O W ,. I Q O O Q . O i Q . I . IH . . O . O tual exercises through the year. On December they close their annual retreat and new members are received into the society. Another yearly event is the presentation of the Altar and Cross' which is ,not only a re-enactment of Calvary's tragedy, but more especially the unique sacrifice of the New Law and the center of Catholic worship. Officers for I938-l939 were: Caroline Ellison. president: Rosalie Barger. Vice President: Beatrice Duffin, Secretary: and Margaret Mary Bradley. Treasurer. Among the events of record some of the most notable have been: November 29th.-Mexican Supper for the benefit of the Academy. ' December 8-Reception of officers and procession. March 27th-Presentation of the Altar and Cross to a large and appre- ciative audience at the Central Catholic High School. April 4th-Repetition of Altar and Cross for the instruction of all the Catholic high school students of the city. Page Twenty-Seven C O O JIHS C U , l f Bama The League of The Sacred Heart The favorite devotion that appeals to all is the devotion to the Sacred Heart. Every First Friday it is most edifying to behold the little children who have received only Private Communion approach the altar rail with older pupils to receive their Creator. During the day, Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament is held and each class has its appointed period for adoration. An atmosphere of genuine piety prevails, even the little tots manifest their reverence in the presence of their Eucharistic Lord. This piety is fostered by the untiring ef- forts of the Chaplain, Rev. A. Morkovsky, who is a zealous promoter of the League activities. We realize, too, that the Messenger of the Sacred Heart is an effective agent in conserving, promoting, and disseminating practical Christian virtues most' dear to the Heart of Christ.

I ' I M 4 M ' BBQ Music a Moral Help A word about the meaning of Music in a moral sense. lt is a human help with power to comfort, lt even hath charms to soothe the savage heart. lt is .t numan help to safeguard the soul. for it fills the fancy with fair bright forms: it attunes the ear to sounds that are sweet. and the heart to impulses that are innocent. lt is a human help to elevate character. for it lifts the listener to an ideal world. where he forgets all that is base or brutal in the serene atmosphere of refinsd art and pure delight. Music is more than a human help. lt is a divine call. liirst to holv psace Calling to mind the sacred words: Hwhensoever the evil spirit was upon Saul. David took his harp. and played with his hand, and Saul was refreslffd, and was better, for the evil spirit departed from him. Music is a call to Paradise lt is the only human art attributed to the Angels. We do not think of them as artists of dead form on colored canvas or sculptured stone. But we do think of them as artists in living expression. Therefore. when the splendor of the truth they utter flows in ecstatic strain and when the harmonious raptures of their soul-strings throb in the same seraphic love. we say that the angels sing. The different music groups. viz. the piano students, Choral Club and the Orchestra have entertained their parents and friends at the Academy during the year and at St, l.eo's School in the City. Now thrv are busy with final recitals for the close of school. Page Thirty-Three I 4 , E IP' Class Play The Lost Rmg A Musical Play In Three Acts Composed by the Rev.
