The pupils of Calvert Hall receive their education from the Brothers of the Christian schools, who were founded in 1680 by the teacher-saint, John Baptist de la Salle, who was born at Rheims, France, in 1651. He endowed the schools with methods of teaching and with a pedagogical organ- ization which in time were adopted and ap- plied almost universally.

Preparation makes the day? work run smoothly. liIifl'l'IIER H. Jmuzs, FSC. Prirzcipul BROTHER C. AVXILIAN, F.S.C. Vice-P1'ir1cipzJ The most important factor in the success of a school such as Calvert Hall is that religion is marle the center of the whole erlucatioual setup. In every classroom there are a crucihx anfl religious pictures. At frequent intervals during the school day a pupil arises and says aloud. Let us re- memher that we are in the holy presence of God. Then teaclwr and pupils pause for 11 moment anrl make a hrief act of acloration. Hy means such as these the hoys learn to untlerstand their faith and to live it.
