Angela Green and Phyllis Wilkerwicz - Seniors of '59 We, too . . . have found beauty ,9 And Snow White lived happily ever after. When we were children we loved fairy stories- and particularly the familiar little tale of Snow White. To us Snow White was just a beautiful prin- cess- a little girl with lips as red as blood, skin as white as snow, and hair as black as ebony. The seven dwarfs were just kindly little men who pro- tected the beautiful heroine from her wicked step- mother, the queen. But Snow White, like other immortal fairy stories, has a deeper meaning. The lovely princess repre- sents beauty, and the story's action seems to sym- bolize that beauty in any form can never really die. lt is kept alive by those lin this case by the seven dwarfsb who realize its worth. And the dwarfs are right-beauty never dies-for, as we recall, Snow White lives again. Each of us, like Snow White, has been endowed by God with wonderful gifts of nature and grace- spiritual gifts of mind and soul far surpassing all other beauty. Yet these treasures are often endan- gered by modern enemies--those wicked ones who seek to tarnish and despoil the flame of our spirit. To protect and nourish our powers, God has di- rected us to lmmaculata. Here our teachers while helping us to develop our bodies and minds, like- wise warn us of spiritual perils and point out the eternal beauty of our most important vocation-to know, love, and serve God on this earth, and to be happy with Him forever in the next. If we truly learn the lessons taught us, then like Snow White-we, too, shall carry away with us beauty of spirit-beauty that can never die.
