by Delving into Glories of American History We began during our junior year the two year sequence in American History. During our junior year, we studied the history of our nation from its early beginnings in 1607 to the end of the 19th century. We knew that in our senior year we would continue this story up to the present time, so we had to lay a strong foundation. Again we drew on a classroom newspaper to supplement our text book. The American Observer gave us pertinent facts about both the past and the present. We sorrowed with Lincoln in his efforts to preserve the union and we gloried in the addition of two new stars to our flag Our heritage opened up before us We studied about the formation of our country ard state and about the men and women who blazed the paths that we were to follow Iwo state in the union has such a background of patriotism as our state has In keeping with the year of history celebrated in Albany and the surrounding towns we learned many facts about New York and the part that New Yorkers played n shaping our country Sister Mary Angela World History American Histor Below Even though American history classes are concerned noostly with the past of our nation l959 was also a year of national history Joyce Remillard points out to Fred Dunn Alaska, the youngest U S state owning the newest star I '.q OUP ll-ilfrf 1848 The comer Stone of the Cathe clral of the Immacu late Conception was laid by Archbishop Hughes this year A fire destroy ed ow er 600 buildings during the spring of 1848 i pf AXA Jon M 'V fl ffl Q r ab u Yft if rg
