Each class of students has found in Sister Mary Ralph some very special trait to endear her to themeshe shares the Freshmon's sim- plicity, the Sophomore's blitheness, the Jun- ior's eagerness, the Senior's dignity. We will soon forget the pink tardy slips and the blue or white absence slips she passed out to us; we may even forget her illustrated auditorium talks and rhetorical questions. But we will never forget our friend, Sister Mary Ralph. on gut Do you want a gentle smile, a friendly greeting, or a few wise words of advice? If so, the person to see is Sister Mary Agnes.
