May Day A thing of beauty is a joy forever? and as all the old students know, May Day at Immaculata Academy is no exception to the rule. Although the 25th of May was not, from a meteorological point of view, remarkable for its sunshine, it will be remembered by all who were present as one of the brightest days of the school year. Immediately after the procession formed, the choir chanted forth sweet hymns of the praise of their Queen. It was a beautiful and impressive sight to see Our Mother borne in triumph around the Con- vent Garden to the floral altar erected for her. In Memorium The faculty and students, through the columns of Lilium Convallium, wish to extend sincere condolence to Rev. S. Chamberlain, upon the death of his esteemed mother, which took place January 19, 1917. To Mr. O,C0nn0r and family we condole in the sad loss of their beloved son, Emmet. We tender our heartfelt condolence to Mr. and Mrs. Brost in the untimely death of their son, Joseph. We extend our condolence to Mr. and Mrs. Leader in the death of their daughter, Stella. May their souls rest in peace.

LILIUM CONVALLIUM J On Wednesday afternoon, May 9, the Immaculata Academy Literary Club held the last literary session of the year. The meeting was called to order by the dlctator, Clara Jacques, who announced the following program: How to Make School Clubs Successful ............................ Frances Gansneder Getting Interested ................................................................ Margaret Friedhoff Are School Societies Worth While? ................................ Agnes Pottage The I. A. Cfs ........................................................................ Helen Henry The Signs of the Times ...................................................... Flora Clark Newmants Place in Literature ........................................ Monica Morley All the talks were good, but particularly the dictators With a matter-of-fact, straight- forward style, Miss Jacques spoke of the importance of appreciating a good thing when we had it, and briefly reviewed the clubts literary work during the past year. Kil Kare Kodak Klub One of the most flourishing 0f Immaculata Academyts clubs this past year was the Kil Kare Kodak Klub. Its activities, however, were lessened because of the inclement weather prevalent during the entire period of the two semesters. It was necessary, therefore, that most of the expeditions planned be called off, and as a result but few pictures were taken. The weather, however, did not prevent its other activities. Many points concerning the arts of photography and developing were explained, and instructive papers were prepared and read at the meetings. Delightful luncheons were held at the members homes; ferns were gathered and potted for the Academy collection, and a picture is now being framed for the hall. Many of the pictures in this book were taken by the Kil Kare Kodak Club, whose offi- cers for the year are: Miss Agnes Pottage, president; Miss Frances Gansneder, Secretary, and Miss Margaret Friedhoff, treasurer. Opus Acus Club Although the name of our club is self-explanatory, a word concerning our purpose will not be amiss. Primarily our aim is to help the poor and needy by spending our recreation hours in needlework for their benefit. Any girl in the school is eligible for membership. At our first meeting early in the term the following Officers were elected: President ......................................................................

III'W'IIIII'1' ?'1 Tuesday, September 8th, marked the opening of the Academyis sixth school term. That morning old friends again met and greeted one another, after a two months absence, and accorded newcomers a hearty welcome. The formal opening of the term, however, did not take nlace until Wednesday, September 9th, when the Mass of the Holy Ghost was celebrated in the Church by Rev. W. A. Daly, who delivered an eloquent sermon. Most Reverend A. Christie, D. D., accompanied by Father OIHara and Father Lomier, honored Immaculata by their presence last term. Very Reverend Edward A. Pace, Ph.D., S. T. D., LL.D.. professor of philosophy, Cath- olic University, Washington, D. C., accompanied by Father OIHara, Superintendent of our diocesan schools, visited the Academy during the summer. We will not forget the many inspirations that have come from Father Daly,s helpful talks, and although they are interspersed through ma.1y months and on many subjects, we will find that if we follow the many suggestions thrown out we will be women who will fit into the complexities of our environment. Time and time again has our reverend instructor impressed us with the idea that our school life in Immaculata is a privilege to be cherished-a precious time wherein our minds and hearts receive that training which makes virtuous, refined and intellectual women. As the days roll on, we are nearing the final exams, which will determine whether we shall have smooth sailing into the Alumnae Association or not. Beginning the year as we should begin it, we chose our class officers as follows: Helen Henry, of Immaculate Heart Parish, president; Frances Gansneder, of St. Joseplfs Parish, vice-president; Flora Clark, of Immaculate Heart Parish, secretary-treasurer; and Clara Jacques, of Holy Cross Parish, sexx geant-at-arms. The doors of another school year are fast closing upon us, never to open again. Many of us are leaving the hallowed walls of Alma Mater, not to return. To these especially, Commencement Day will be a day of sorrow. We bid farewell to our teachers and class- mates, perhaps never again to meet. We have the consolation of knowing, however, that there is a Lilium Convallium published at dear old Immaculata, through whose columns we hope to hear of all the old girls, and to learn of their success in life, remaining faithful to the principles taught them by Alma Mater. We extend our grateful thanks to Miss Tessie Manning, who gave Immaculata Academy the beautiful statue of the Madonna that ador 1s om school. A delightful audience was given proof of t'Ie versatility of the Sophomore and Freshman classes when on Monday, May 2lst, they presen led a piogiam consisting of musical numbels and dlamatie readings. 40 III this class.
