Sacred Heart League Officers of the League for this year were: President .. .......................... Stephania Krauklis Vice-P'resident ...... Sophia Fiedor Secretary ................................... Anna Wych The League of the Sacred Heart was organized at Good Counsel High School tour years ago to promote devotion to the Sacred Heart. It is also known as The Apostleship of Prayer. The special objects of this League are to promote love and reparation to the Sacredi Heart and to unite so thoroughly all Christian hearts with the Heart of God, as to lead them to fit to themselves all His intentions. Besides, there are also certain conditions which the members earnestly strive to fulfill. Meetings of the League are held on every first Thursday of the month. In order to spread more intense devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, a week- ly procession is held by the members of the League every Thursday evening. Hymns to the Sacred Heart are sung during the procession which is concluded with a Litany to the Sacred Heart. The objects of this association are expressed in the motto Thy Kingdom Come! God's Kingdom on earth is the acknowledgement of His supreme majesty as Lord of all things, and the submission of every individual to His divine Law. Thus with this purpose and motto, the members of the Apostleship of Prayer strive to possess greater strength in their spiritual life and to implore blessing of the King of Peace on all their labors. Stephania Krauklis, '31, ST. TH ERESA'S LEGI ON This Legion, although young in existence, has grown to prominence in the school. The object of the Legion is to follow St. Theresa's Little XVays and to further the love and devotion for Her. A solemn novena is conducted before Her feast day. The Legion is gradually developing into a large organization under the solici- tous care of its moderator and hearty cooperation of the student body. It serves a real practical purpose, for, the members, reading the life and the Little XVays of the Patroness strive to acquire them. Besides, they are- confident that St. Theresa will win for all of them a deep and fruitful conviction of the unchanging truth, that unless we become as little children in the doing of our Heavenly Father's Will, we cannot enter into our Eternal Home.
