X' FOREWORD Every tree, brought to maturity by the skilled and tender care of the cultivators, should bring forth verdant foliage. To the class of 1940 the pages of Elmata bear testimony of the flourishing maturity of four years' growth in the spacious and hallowed grove of the College of Our Lady of the Elms. Elmata is the story of that part of our life which we recall with a strange feeling that we have not deserved the blessing that came to us then. Lest time should dim the memory of these blessed days, we have storied herein upon the leaves of Elmata the friends, the scenes and the life we have so much treasured at the College of Our Lady of the Elms, but at times we have been confronted with our inability to catch and reproduce many of the higher values which we intimately feel and appreciate. However it is the fervent hope of the Senior Class that the reader will find Our Lady's grove attractive and inviting. May the leaves of Elmata afford him, as it were, a refreshing and welcome shade wherein he may wish to linger. L X' ' ' wmv' 4 55,1 L i li I ,i i ' f 1 'ln t r Y f . p g ll lf '7' l . 'K affix' 1
