0 Q 0 a Q O 0 0 a o 0 a The school was privileged to have as their guest on November 1C Sister Borromeo, diocesan supervisor of the schools under the care of the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth. It wasn't difficult for most of the students to see the resemblance between Sister Borromeo and Sister Helen. Some few, however, aren't convinced that they are Wreal sistersn. December The First Friday in December marked the beginning of the con- gregational singing by the students. This will continue at all Church services where the students attend in a body. Benediction was given on Friday, December 19, at one o'clcok. After service Father talked to the students, showing con- clusively by few well-chosen words that the whole spirit of Christmas is to be found in the Mass on Christmas morning. The children went from the Church to the hall, where Santa was waiting with candy and fruit. January The resumption of classes on January 6 revealed students rather anxious to begin again, despite an anxious dread of the Sgproaching exams. These were held during the week of January A smile-provoking observation: The real students were distress- ed because they knew Wabsolutely nothingng while some others who discredit fretting unduly over books seened quite sure. They did not know Weverythingn of course, but enough to get by on. Some reports revealed their folly. Our class rings arrived, after delay due to war conditions. Only those who have experienced this thrill can fully appreciate our exuberance. February The renovated school hall was duly initiated by a dance given on the evening of February 6 by the seniors. A certain book on 'Dancing Made Easyn was used extensively that evening by members of the Freshman and Sophomore classes. A pre-Lenten party was given by the juniors on the evening of February 17. The Grand March started an evening of merriment.

Arrange your vacation schedule to include daily Mass and Holy Communion. At Mass we can experience a daring union with Chri the Prince of Peace. Use the Missal. It is the intelligent way to participate actively, to co-offer with the priest. You are not merely hearing Mass then, you are taking a personal part in it as befits an intelligent Catholic. Avoid giving bad example. Encouraging the sins of others at this time is a detestable form of sabotage and fifth column activity against the cause of Christ. Live close to Christ. Give Him priority, a personal loyalty in your daily life. st
