In the Chemistry lab we find Sister Mary Peter with a number of freshmen working on an experiment in Inorganic Chemistry, while in the adjoining lah Sister Mary Grace and an- other group of freshmen are completing as- signed work in Biology. These laboratory per- iods are long but the students know they are valuable. In addition to those who elect some branch of science as a major, one year of Chem- Oh, oh! That's the time we caught you.

Across the hall a class in Anglo-Saxon is in progress. Sister Mary Consolata explains a pronunciation and traces the changes occurring in the word down to the present time. But was that the bell? Indeed! 12:40 and time for dinner! Let us hurry to see the students and lay faculty gather for dinner in the main dining hall. There, important meet- ings of the afternoon and evening will be an- nounced by a senior. Perhaps we shall hear an imitation of some radio commentator to pep up teams for the afternoon sports tournaments, or a plea for the Red Cross, Foreign Relief, Infan- Doctor Juhn explains a fine point in German. tile Paralysis Drive, our Oriental Missions or some other worthy cause. We may even hear the strains of 'Happy Birthday' resound through the halls to honor some lucky celebrant. Dinner over we notice little groups here and there, catching up on the latest news while waiting for the afternoon session to begin. Let us stop for just a minute in Raymond Hall he- forc going on to the laboratories. It is 1:40 and the seniors have just assembled for Religion with Father Keenan. This course in 'Life Prob- lems' is planned to equip the student with a reasonable and practical approach to matters of faith and nlorals.

We certainly can interpret that look of happy anticipation on the faces of the invited guests and we know they will not be disappointed. Flower arrangelnents are also considered in connection with table decorations and we are sure that excellent suggestions along this lille are frequently demonstrated by Sister Mary Alacoque, who pauses to chat with a few upper- classmen. We shall hurry along now to the Casino, another center of activity, traveling by way of the East Road. But did you notice the girls in the Raymond Hall Reading Room catching up on the daily news?

I believe they are members of the Cal- culus class, and no doubt are discussing some problem which has stumped them. They cer- tainly have gone to the right source for direc- tion. ln the gymnasium, Miss Carville is teach- ing a folk dance to the freshmen, while all about, the courts and other facilities are in use. Ten or twelve juniors are in the swim- ming pool, evidently improving their tech- nique for the forthcoming water relays, while several groups of seniors and sophomores are competing in bowling, tennis, ping pong and badminton. As we look from the window two other tcalns can be seen, one engaged in a game of field hockey and the other in an arch- ery contest.
