n 0 0 e 0 o QEBQKLQLE September When the calendar revealed that September 8 had arrived, Zhl students, old and new, returned to St. Marys after a long vacation, ready to start school in earnest. A high Mass in honor of the Holy Ghost, the Spirit of Light, was offered by Father Bernier. After Mass, Father spoke to the student body stressing the twofold purpose of education-- the enlightening of the mind and the discipling of the will. St. Marys welcomed the new members of the faculty: Sister Mary Cletus, Sister Ivona, Sister Eugenia and Sister Marita. Improvements and additions made during the summer vacation exceeded even our wildest hopes--two new classrooms added to the high school building, the old classroom off the porch of the grade school converted into a Wrealn principal's office, the library equipped with new tables and chairs and an addition of three sets of reference books, five new Underwood type- writers for the commercial department, the newly-painted class- rooms, and the appearance of the adjustable window shades are gustMsome of the items that make possible a bigger and better t. ary. After consideration concerning the choice of leaders for the year, the classes held elections with the results: Seniors President John Hartman Vice-President John Recchiuti Secretary William Jumps Treasurer Albert Pica Juniors President William Burroway Vice-President Norma Grippo Secretary Louise Sampaolo Treasurer William Competti
