Every language has its irregulari- ties and incongruities. The older and more used it becomes, the more it changes. There is Qrr, a need for a language which will never change, one which when to will mean the same thing everytime. It will not change with years as the other languages do. Such a language is Latin, For twiorftthousatad years scientists, doctors and historians have written in Latin in Sider to 'preserve their documents for posterity. These docu- ments may .xto in later years Mandi the idea will remain. But the student? will wonder to do with him.

REV. EDWARD J. HENNESSY, C.S.C. B.A., University of Notre Dame M,A., Fairfield University Candidate Ph,D., St. johns University School Chaplain The purpose of the Religion Department is to draw man closer to God. This is done in innumerable ways both large and small. The main way is through the religion class. The entire four year course represents a complete study of the faith, starting with the Ten Commandments and ending with a course in marriage. This is done so that by the time he graduates, the Holy Cross man will know what his re- ligious obligations are. The good actions he does will enable him to be drawn closer to God. But the influence of the religion department extends far beyond the reach of the classroom. The lenten mite boxes contain the influence of the religion depart- ment. Every time a student deposits a coin, it is done because it is the result of some Christian training. It is the beginning of faith in action. The student is beginning to practice his faith more ardently. The religion department can only inform the students on religious matters, it can only encourage him to practice these teachings, but it is the student who must practice them. And when he does beginlto put his faith to work for himself and others, the purpose of the religion department has been accomplished. BROTHER REENATUS FOLDENAUER BROTHER NICHOLAS PIANO, C.S.C.

ROBERT LARKIN B.A.. Iona University English III Citizenship Varsity Baseball j,V. Football The desire in man to know the truth is great, and it is the aim of the English De- partment to fulfill this desire. This aim, to instill in the student an appreciation and enjoyment of certain literary qualities, is accomplished in many various Ways. The Freshman and Sophomore years are spent in the study of grammar, vocabulary and the bases of literary composition. In the junior and Senior year the student begins to study the various forms of American and English literature. This is brought about by class discussions, develop- ment of critical analysis, and creative Writing. These discussions lead to intellectual curiosities which are fundamental to genuine appreciation of literature, One of the prime goals of the English Department is to give the student training so that he may build for himself an outlet for his opinions, his ideas and for his criticisms. This department has for a goal the development, not of a skill, but of an instrument whereby the student can express himself, his beliefs, his theories, and his talents through creative writing.
