'Regina Kaminski SODALITY NOTES During the past year the Sodality of Our l.ady has met with much suc- cess because of the cooperation of not only the Sodalists but also of the entire student body, .Xll the enterprises the Sodality has undertaken were received with much enthusiasm. Several Pagan llabies have been ransomed this year as a result of the spirit shown among the Sodalists. .Xt the beginning of the year the Sodality sponsored a cookie sale which was such a success that it has been followed by others. But these were not the only things the Sodalists undertook. ln December there was a Bee Hunt in the Scout Rooms. The whole student body responded to this. Then in lfebruary we had our Bingo Party and again the student body co- operated with us to make it a success. During Lent there was a mite box in each homeroom. liveryone sacrihced a few pennies and at the end of Lent we were able to ransom three Pagan Babies. The Sodality has done well and no doubt will continue to do well under the guidance of its Spiritual .-Xdvisor. -Ann llattersby '37 I 3 l l

It became a member of a nationwide organi- zation, the Student Science Clubs of America. A constitution which made only juniors and Seniors eligible for membership in the club was drawn up. During the year the club sponsored, and participated in, many activities. Demonstrations of soapmaking and photography were presented by the students. At a Christmas assembly the club presented a play. In February the members made a tour of the Corning Glass VVorks. On this- tour various articles of glass on exhibit were seen. In the glass factory the methods of glass making, both ancient and modern, were observed. Later the organiza- tion visited the filtration plant. There the students saw the actual operations employed in purifying water. Sidney Mitchell '37 ' Tff' EQLXQI aging? I 8 3 l
