Celebrates Christmas With the approach of Advent, stu- dents prepare the Advent Wreath for each homeroom. We redouble our prayers and good works that each heart Will be ready for the coming of Christ. Social activities cease temporarily, as We concen- trate on preparations for the great feast at hand. Yet, even in Advent, we look forward to Christ's coming. Cribs are taken out and repaired, the office manger set is arranged in an attractive corner, prepara- tions for the Christmas dance begin to take shape. Outside, the Christ- mas crib is erected, and Rosary Field begins to glow in a wonder- land of dazzling lights. Only the Weather refuses to cooperate. Sullen clouds forecast snow, but none appears. We continue our Work and our Advent prayers. And then, it's here! Once more the glad bells ring out telling the glad story of God's goodness to man. Dominican participates fully in the liturgy of the great event. Work ceases, and for one long Week, We celebrate! The Christmas dance, held on the day after Christ- mas, strikes the joyous note of ful- fillment. We gather with ourfriends and rejoice that the long wait is over. Let the joyful caroling begin! Open up your hearts to the King of Peace! The joy of the season be yours! 5 Cathy Bu-Inger and Kathy O1 While the band takes a break, the couples sen enjoy the senior dance visit the refreshment counter in the cafe- ' it H' .:.

pirimal Acfiviriegiiii lay o Moior Role During the year many opporttmities to ractice the spiritual life present thema elves. During Holy Week we stop our ctivities for three days while we con- entrate on union with God. Our Retreat ay begins with Mass and Holy Communion llowed by conferences and by rosaries aid together. Our time between these xercises is spent'with books, visits to the lessed Sacrament and walks in which we ornmune with the God Whose beauty we ee in nature. Other rewarding experiences are Com- union breakfasts with our -dads and others. These minutes together develop reater love and tmderstanding among us, ur parents and our Creator.- r N Joelene Beckett and Carol Bieganowski find the quiet of the corridor ideal for pamphlet reading. Between conferences we think about what we have heard and read, or we get a breath of fresh air on Rosary Field. Dianne Dunn, Teresa D'A11eva, Grace Stronati, Patricia DeSmith and Kathleen Krause know that minutes spent before Our Lord are priceless. Juniors and seniors attend infor- Thomas O'Connor. Each student mative and helpful conferences leaves the auditorium with a clear- brightened by the humor of Father er understanding of her duties.
