r ST. FRANCIS HALL cA. NHA ' P, little lianclmaclc plateau midway between vSt. Joseph and Loras Halls is just big enough to support this meal-time mecca of Columbia, St. Lraneis Hall. Not here the grandeur of Loras Hal! nor even the traditional charm of old St. Joseph Hall, but pleasant associations and fond memories cling to everj cor¬ ner of this building. The in¬ cessant buzz of conversation, the fli] ]:)ant jest, the irrepres¬ sible wit of care-free youth, the letter from home, alT these come to mind with the mention of .St. Francis Hall. Seventeen

T) EAR to the hearts of the older of Columbia’s Alumni is St. Joseph Mall, the nucleus from which the surroundings grew to meet the demands of an active and rowing institution. This present abode of the academy students was once St. Joseph College in its entirety, in all its youthful hopefulness and vigor. Co¬ lumbia has grown, expanded, changed, but her sons do‘not forget; and with tradition im¬ bedded in every stone St. Jo¬ seph Hall will always retain a verv real and i)ermaneni charm. Xinoloon
