This will not be an easy task, for it is to those we love, respect and honor, Our Dear Seniors. However, when we look at life seriously, do we not know farewells must come in life? Yes, and most of us had already felt the pangs of a sorrowful parting. But we also know that the parting, be it short or long, or perhaps for lifetime, is not a parting forever. Let us then open our hearts to the consoling thoughts, that one day we will meet in our abode of joy that knows no discomfort. We extend ou-r sincerest thanks to the Class of '31 for their incessant labor for the welfare of the school, for their leadership and many a good example. Since the aim of the majority is to attain perfection in Sisterhood, we heartily congratulate them on their great privilege of the Divine Call, and wish them success and perseverance. To those remaining, who, undoubt- edly will follow their own vocation, we wish the grace of God and the best of luck in all their undertakings. Mary Padlo '32 Wanda Stefanik '32 LET'S GO!! Juniors, Juniors let's haste For we have no time to waste, Our bus will speed on As soon as our packing is done. Pack up your notes and books, And keep them away from crooks, For we must acknowledge That they contain all knowledge. The road is clear and the way long, VVe shall soon sing a farewell song, To the good Old Junior days, All of them spent in joyful ways. The Junior days have passed away, Our work we ought not delay, But earnestly get to it now And our Senior year enjoy and how! Gertrude Zielinska '32 Page Thirty-four

Emily liolodzicj JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY Our memories dear - Of the Junior year - Are jotted here. ln the Fall of 1930, we entered the third year of our high school career with zeal, eagerness and ambition to be worthy of the name .luniors. The two previous years have shown to us the value and necessity of education for man, in order to achieve his goal in the world. They urged us to strive and work more seriously. Thus disposed, we began our .lunior year. XVe were not shirkers and began our studies with enthusiasm and patient industry. Besides our regular interesting class work. wc were engaged diligently in curricular achievements as projects in English, Latin and French. The examinations proved to us that all the efforts that we put forth were not transient, but shall remain and live with us in the future. But we have not only succeeded intellectually and brought honor to Good Coun- sel in that line but in the Social a11d Athletic Fields as well. , I young ladies, Among other activities the most successful was the Hard-Time l'arty.' Many of us had an opportunity to display our talent in acting. singing. playing. rv I etc.. by taking active parts in various organizations as: Glee, Dramatic. Iep and G. C. Clubs. of which we were members. XVc also were a helping hand in the publica- tion of the Counselia which we will strive to raise to its highest standards. At the close of the year came the Farewell Party, our last tribute to the Sen- iors. in which the whole school cooperated. Thus ended our dear .lunior year with happiness, peace, honor and success which we owe to the kindness. guidance and love of our Teachers and other friends about us. The year has passed, but not the sweet memories which shall re-echo as distant chimes in our hearts. NVe eagerly look florward to our next W last year when we shall meet again, not as .luniors but as Seniors with the hope of acquiring greater success.

AN ODE TO A BLOTTER Did you ever stop to think, Of all the drops of ink A blotter can contain? And yet it must refrain From disclosing e'en a mite Of what its user might write. It is indeed a surprise What one does confide, To a blotter of any size. You can rest assured Though it may be lured. It keeps your secrets all- Petty, serious, big and small. So think it over, and you'll agree How significant a blotter can be! Mary Leszczynska '32 REMIN ISCEN CES Delightful memories are connected with our beloved G. C., which we are about to leave forever. All our associations, and moments spent here, although -occasionally meaning'ess and vague, have been pleasant, sweet and exceedingly charming. Those trips full of pleasure into the fields and the nearby woods. where we breathed the clearandfreshairsatiatedwith the fragrance of flowers, and where the meadows and fields have been an inspiration to us. Each season brought new and diverse surprises, de- lights and amusements which cast into oblivion the darker sides of our school life. T i i i W How successfully our life sped on the fleeting wings of time! O, how many varied impressions, how many ardent and holy feelings and emo- tions, bow many noble endeavors are recorded on the pages of our life at G. C. Time has outrun all this. These days are gone, never to return .... We have been prepared to face life: we have been prepared for indi- vidual labors, and now are told to bid farewell and withdraw from the portals of the school, in order to make place for our successors. We are about to start life in this broad world, but we have the consolation that we are not leaving empty handed, on the contrary. we are stepping into this new life full of hope and peaceful expectation because before us lies a holy, lofty, sublime Ideal, which, if we preseveringly follow, will lead us unto higher realms - of Eternity.
