All f our artistic talents are used to express our deep happiness in sharing thejoy of the day with Sister Michael Denis. We wel- come this opportunity to thank Sister for the many things she has done for us during our school years. May every feastday be as happy as this. Stuffed with Sisters of Adrian, Michigan A school is only as good as its admin- istrators. For a smooth, efficient school, good management is necessary. We feel we have been very fortunate here at Domin- ican in having Sister Michael Denis for our guide and cotmselor for the past five years. From her pleasant Good morning, girls until the last announcement in the evening, Sister Michael Denis gives us an example of efficiency in the conduct of the school, and even more important, in the application of solid Christian principles to daily living. We are deeply grateful for the fine man- agement of the school and the Wonderful example presented by our principal. Every school also needs an assistant. Sister Albertus ably fills this assignment along with her busy schedule in science. Students who report to the office know Sister's pleasant smile and unfailing help- fulness. We are grateful for the lessons of graceful living both Sisters present for us daily. X Barbara Chojnowski stops in the class. Sister Albertus inquires office on her way to her first hour about her daily schedule.

Dominican Mourns Death of Mother Gerald Who Built School Dominican High School opened its doors for the first time in 1940. It came about as a result of the foresight and planning of Mother Mary Gerald, Mother General of the Dominican Or- der that is located at Adrian, Michigan. Since its founding, Dominican has con- tinued to expand with an ever-increasing army of graduates claiming her as their own. This year's graduating class of two hundred seventy-five sen- iors shows are the great growth of Dominican. Mother Mary Gerald died on Novem- ber 20, 1961, at Adrian, Michigan. May she rest in peace.
