,gain I 7 53 CLP? In Our Lady lies the culmina- tion of pure devotion to an ideal. Every Notre Dame girl looks to her as the shining ex- amplar of integral womanhood, for nothing is wanting to her perfection as maiden or mother. Every classroom enshrines her statue, reminding all of her pro- tection. Daily litany, said often - alas! - for purgatory, recalls the facets of her beauty. Proud- ly worn medals externalize the heart's love in May. Very Rev. Father Rector is a welcome speaker at our May Procession every year because he gives the kind of ser- mon which is short, yet meaningful and inspiring. alancb The culmination of the far-famed procession arrives when the page of the May Queen mounts the steps to crown the statue. This ceremony is accompanied by the crowning hymn to Our Lady and followed by Benediction. eighty

fde .jueigdfo For long years K Streets la' vorite tribute to Our I,ady has been the May Profession. Its beauty and earliest spirit of de- votion, its impressiveness to on- lookers, its purpose of paying corporate homage to the Moth- er ol' jesus make it the major event ol' every closing year. Those Seniors in whose conduct Mary's virtues are best mirrored will indeed take Integrity out into their world with her purity shining in their faces. An inspiring sight is the large church of St. Aloysius filled with children of Mary paying homage to the Queen of heaven. mu41egq U tv vnu! a Mali 1 9 is N fl. up 2 Ilia muth-loved May Procession is highlighted, as it passes along bv the beautifully dressed May Queen and her court. 6 eighty-one al Sophomore Louise Combs has stepped out of tht bristle of sfhool life, for a quarter of an hour, to recite her rosary. The little oratory off the library is the perfert place for this favorite devotion or for just a few quiet moments of prayer.
