These and similar exclama- tions can he heard in the halls of Immaculate in the 'tf early days of Septemher as the freslunen wander dis- consolately through the maze of high school. How- ever, everything soon hecoines familiar to them, and hefore long they feel very much a part of things. The overwhelming turnout for freshman foothall always pleases Father Sheehan, and they swell the ranks of the 'IV teams in other sports.

X' 1 A' M' I The chief work of the Sisters of Charity of St. Elizabeth is to honor the sacred Childhood of jesus Christ through the Catholic education of youth. However, before they can educate others, they them- selves must be educated. Their spiritual formation begins the day they enter the Congregation and con- tinues for the rest of their lives, their professional training commences after their novitiate. At this time, if they have not previously attended college, they ob- tain their bachelor's degrees. Mother Xavier was so conscious of the necessity for the competent professional training of her Sisters that in 1899 she encouraged the founding of the Col- lege of St. Elizabeth, on the grounds of the General- house, the first college for women in the State of New jersey and one of the first Catholic colleges for women in the entire United States. All of the Sisters of Charity engaged in sec- ondary education are specialists in their fields. Most of them have the opportunity of studying for grad- uate degrees at various universities throughout the country and in Europe, all of them regularly attend workshops illustrating improvements in the tech- niques of teaching their respective subjects. Standing witness to the varied education and specialized training of the Sisters is the fact that the Congregation has at one time or another numbered among its ranks a lawyer, a distinguished geologist, authors, a Certified Public Accountant, research chemists, talented musicians, trained social workers, pharmacists, technicians, and innumerable dedicated teachers. During our years at Immaculate we seniors have received the benefit of our teachers' specialized train- ing and have rested secure in the knowledge that our instructors can compare with any in the land.
