OUR LIBRARY No one can estimate the ever-widening circles of good which started and spread from the inspiration received from a virile book. Don’t let this influence and joy escape you. If you haven’t begun, let reading mark the beginning of an investment which will pay large dividends in happiness, usefulness, and contentment. National Book Week was celebrated at Catholic High in a fitting way. Posters, illustrating the many books in our Library, graced the corridors as well as the Library. Several of the librarians spoke of the value of good reading over the public address system. The week was climaxed by a Book O’ Week Party held in the gymnasium on Fri- day afternoon. Games, with books given as prizes, were featured. Re- freshments were in order and a tidy little sum was realized from the affair for the Library fund. e

THE LITTLE FLOWER MISSION UNIT The hope of the Missions lies in the generosity of the Catholic peo- ple of the United States. Especially since the war have missionaries everywhere appealed to Catholic Americans for prayers and funds that they might continue their ever more needed charity. The Mission Unit of our school has responded most graciously to this appeal. A monthly spiritual offering has been made in behalf of this noble cause. The sale of mission magazines to the student body, the gathering of cancelled stamps, the annual skating party and the exceptionally successful Lenten drive for membership in the Catholic Students’ Mission Crusade have kept the students of Catholic High mis- sion-minded and active in a cause dear to the heart of every zealous Catholic. The Mission Society is most grateful to all who have so magnani- mously cooperated in making this a happy and successful Mission year. OFFICERS President........................
