Never have any three weeks flown as fast as Christmas vacation. Those exciting three weeks devoted to parties, seeing old friends, and sleep- ing late. Upon our return we compared notes , and came to the unanimous decision that Santa had been generous to us all. .lust as all good things must come to an end and one must come hack to earth, so it was with us. We returned from our dream cloud of a holiday to earth with a rude bounce for we found ourselves right in the middle of mid-term examinations. Every meal in the dining room found someone advertising for a lost texthookg the arygles we had been faithful to all year were cast down without a second glance and we were deep in study. The officers of the Class of 1949: Peggy McCarty, secretaryg Rosemary Dunn, trea- surerg Pat Carroll, president, and Frances Clancy, vice president. CQJJ-ei' - as-.tf-.I 649' QS him' fshrlilliyl .

This was a very gay and exciting affair and made up for all we had gone through during exams. After the Prom we returned to school to make the retreat which was given this year hy the eminent Reverend Timothy J. Mulvey, O.lVf T. We were thankful for the many hcauti- ful thoughts and practical lessons which he im- planted in our hearts and minds. fi Each year the Junior class sponsors the Va- lentine Part and we were determined to make Y . four party the rousing success ,tllat,sPcl,1,affairsw 0 N.',,w, s 11 gg , fa 5:1-X,--J AJ-' ax - ,L if' ' ' at z ,tern Y?-TLT? 1-ifef'-a-'-fJ?L .Y' tiff.-,efffffv ' .1 ' 11,14 'E' .', ' -, ,' ,,'f ' , gk,-,L,,'7 ' ff Sifjff- 'ifi'.,-f:.5'1L5ff r' .. .af UNL' ff! rfi.---fJffzJ' rU,,,,,g1jr.j Zllvulg fy,,.-illrvfrix, LT, ,v.,x..ji I?

Thanksgiving was next on the list of college activities. It came rapidly, and just as suddenly it was past. When we returned we had a long week-end to look forward to, for the Feast of the Immaculate Conception fell on a Monday this year. f-, At the December Student Body Meeting we received a pre-Christmas surprise when we were presented with the long awaited class rings. At last we felt like full fledged upperclassmen. The Holly Hop and the coming Christmas vacation vied for the conversational honors. Decorated trees, dim lights, and plump Santa by the fireplace made the annual Christmas dance sponsored by the Court Page a nlenlorahle event for all Courtiers and a fine start to a truly Wonderful Christmas week here at school. The candles flickering in the Chapel as the girls marched in the Christmas procession to put the Holy Babe in the crib, the merry twink- ling of the lights on the huge pine tree in front of the Mansion, youthful voices singing the tra- ditional carols-all these things are a part of the holiday season at the Court, along with the deli- cious banquet given to us by the Sisters of Mercy. This delectable treat always precedes the Senior Christmas Party in tl1e Casino. It was at this party, that Santa arrived in his sleigh to deliver the gifts we exchanged with our little sisters. , fl X lt ' t . - 15 , - ., P h x t X . 1 X ' , F' X lx Q X xwfi QQ T 9'-4 lxkf l J ll ft Y-f' 1 A kb .

Hearts and flowers, romance, red and white, all these things are a part of a Valentine celebration, and we had them all! Vifishing to contribute our share to campus social life, our class chose to sponsor a tea dance during the spring term. We had our usual dance time which means we had fun!
