And the rain fell, and the floods came, andthe winds blew and beat against that house, but it did not fall, because it was founded on rock. - Matt. VII, 24-26. It is the hope and prayer of every member of the Faculty that the grad- uates of '44 may exemplify the Master's teaching preceding these, His words. Thus the structure of their lives will stand secure and strong through these uncertain times reaching their fulfillment under the standard of Jesus and Mary. Pagcfive

He also serves who - waits. A bright Red Cross upon her arm. Winnona Ellerton Early in the school year we enrolled in the Junior American Red Cross and have readily responded to their requests for aid by contributing atghans, hospital tray favors tor Christmas, Valentines, and St. Patrick's day, ket bags, pillow slips, hot water bag covers, cartoon books, and classic novels. Not the least of our undertakings was the collection of approximately 2,000 coat hangers which were sent to Baxter General Hos- pital. Five hundred inspiring holy pictures have been mounted and dis- tributed among the boys in the service. Encouraged by our success in this organization and the knowledge that we are assisting in the war effort many of us hope to continue in this admirable work. Page :even
