0 o I I Soclafwia gun! Sintra to Steer y A knowledge more vital than that acquired in any classroom has been woven into the routine of these four years. The precious thread of the discovery of our Divine destination stands out in the sturdy cloth of education to provide the strength of purpose on which all the other threads depend. As we become more and more convinced that we were meant for God alone our eyes begin to see His infinite power and goodness. Seekingha model after which we can pattern our' selves in order to serve God to the fu'lest, we find no one who has reached a greater perfection than Mary, His Mother, and so we determine to serve Christ as Mary did. There have been definite rules and ideals set up for us in order that we might not seek aimlessly after our goal but so that we might increase in grace with a definite consistency and have a dependable guide to fa'l back on. This strength is imparted through a world-wide organization which consecrates itself entirely to the Mother of God in order to re-live her life of virtue-the Sodality of Our Lady. of Our Lady. Although it covers the world, the Sodality is keyed to the needs of the individual for it real- izes that if a person is not holy in herself not only will she be unable to accomplish her own purpose but she will exert no influence for good. So, too, here at school do we follow the norms set up for us by the Scdality rules. The girls are encouraged to attend the after-school bull ses- sions. Cisca meetings and division assemblies are held which give the students an opportunity to examine, piece by piece, the doctrines of the Church to see what meaning they have for them as individuals. They are given an opportunity to view their religion in a critical light and to ques- tion it honestly. Despite the vastness of the organization of the Church, its simplicity of purpose enables us to see that true love of God is also a matter of sims plicity, the same simplicity which Mary showed when she said, Thy will be done. To help the Sodalist follow in Mary's footsteps, she, too, is given a motto of simplicity which may be ap- plied to every work- To Christ through Mary.
