The booths are filled, but always room for one more the cry echoes round. -- Refreshment, ah, sweet refreshment! Potato chips, candy bars, juke box - the day's difficulties hashed, growled, and smiled over. Saddle shoes, ribbons, pigtails, the latest quips, letters - all become a part of after-school iam sessions. lt's gay, it's fun, it's YOUTH - and now it's gone, students step over the threshold of high school gaiety into the ranks of sedate young women - but will they forget? Just ask them and catch their smiling an- swersl C 31 C ff? MY LOVE FOR BLESSED JULIE With acknowledgment to Elizabeth Barrett Browning How do I love you? Let me count the ways, I love you as you were in childhood days When you taught religion to the small, And your life was an example to all. l love you for the joy which in sorrow you displayed, you for the prayer which at God's altar you laid, I love you for your courage and smiles through tears, I love you for your perseverance all through the years, I love you with all the love my heart can hold, Because of your great love for God and His Fold. Oh! Dear Blessed Julie help me to repeat, How good is the good God, when trials I meet. I love -Elizabeth Pacura MOTHERS The Father thought of His children benevolently When He fashioned Eve so exquisitely, With every spiritual and physical grace, A piece of Paradise, mother of our race. And God, well pleased with all that's good, Loved and cherished motherhood. The ages flew. A woman grew With virtues many, faults few- Loving, humble, wise and mild Was Ann, the mother of the perfect child. Mother of God, we praise in thee, A masterpiece of purity. Fulfilling all who came before: Mothers' ideal forevermore. And God, well pleased with all that's good, Loved and cherished motherhood. And in my mother I can see Parts of God's pattern in all three- The mirror of Mary, with Ann's gentle eyes, And Eve's happy bit of Paradise. And God, well pleased with all that's good, Loves and cherishes motherhood. -Gladys Winer COMING HOME The thought of just returning, Fulfilling inward yearning, Not one has cause to cast the blame, Not one because I come back lame, I can take it, l'll not back out. l'm coming home, I do not doubt. At last! My waiting not in vain, I see the housetops, now every lane, Dear God, You answered a soldier's prayer, l'm coming home, l'm really there. -Gloria Milke ANTICIPATION Sunshine, A breath of spring, A robin sings again -orqotten melodies of dcivs -Gilda Rasori Ahead. THE WINDOW Our Lady's Window radiates The theme song of our school, The noble theme of womanhood With faith and love as rule. -Kathr DREAMS If l could choose my dreams tonight before I go to bed, A pillow stuffed with paradise would hold my weary head, A carriage drawn by horses white The The And And And And would carry me to you, moon would wink, and all the stars would smile upon us two, roses in your garden would be rich in fragrance rare, silver strains of symphonies would tremble in the air, I would waken memories of years and years ago, whisper in your ear the things I've wanted you to know I would take you in my arms and kiss your lips and then l'd make a fervent wish that dawn would never come again. --Peggy A PRAYER O God, the Lord of love and light, Relieve the world of darksome night.

Unity for victory is not new. lt was not by accident or coincidence that our coun- try was entitled the United States of Amer- ica, but rather, the men who came to this land realized that to hold the rights they had established in America, which were threatened by the tyrants they sought to escape, they had to unite their efforts. We mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor. Thus, Thomas Jefferson incorporated their pledge of unity in the Declaration of independence. Today, these same United States are again defending their rights in another battle against European tyranny. In Decem- ber, l94l , they declared war upon the Axis Powers. With this declaration, these United States cast its lot with the Allies and began a death struggle. In this present war there remains that same pregnant factor which will in no small way distinguish between victory or defeat - Unity! Why were the European nations -- Poland, Czechoslovakia, Norway, France, and the others - subdued? Fifth colum- nists invaded their lives, invaded their hearts and minds, and thus impaired their first line of defense - Unity! It was this insidious invasion and not so much the in- vasion of mechanized forces which brought about their subjugation so quickly. A unit- ed Europe would not have borne a Hitler or another world war. On the other hand, Britain has not been forced to submission. Why has she held out so long against this same foe? Because she is united. ln the mind and in the heart of every Englishman is a theme, There'lI always be an England. His life, in time of war more than ever, is a united effort with his fellow countrymen that Eng- land may endure. lt's a thumbs up spirit which can not be conquered. Disregarding the insidious invasion of the separate European countries, a uniting of those countries could not have been easily achieved, if at all. The people of Europe differ radically in language, temperament and way of living. This difference in itself impeded the establishment of a victorious unity. However, we in the United States possess a very firm and precious foundation upon which to base unity for victory. Bar- ring regional differences, which in them- selves are of minor importance, we are one in language, temperament and way of liv- ing. Unity is thus established as a necessary basis for victory. We must, therefore, strengthen and safeguard it. We must de- velop it to the utmost that we may be vic- torious in this present war. To do so, it would be wise for each of us to renew the pledge of unity, in the following manner: We mutually pledge to each other our Lives: There is a place for each and every one in our defense program. All cap- able men are in the actual armed forces of our country and there is a job for all women and children. Therefore, We pledge to each other an active participation in our defense program, We pledge to each other an increased care of our personal health that we may be fit to answer our country's needs, 1331 Uohn Jay, Federalist Paper No. 2 We pledge to each other an avoidance of waste and a willing acceptance of the necessary sacrifices. We mutually pledge to each other our Fortunes: Our country needs our increased finan- cial support and the assistance of our established free enterprises. Therefore, We pledge to each other a maximum purchase of War Bonds, We pledge to each other the full bene- fits of our industrial strength, and to this end, We pledge to each other the discon- tinuance of labor dissension. We mutually pledge to each other our sacred Honor: The citizens of the United States of America possess specific rights and privileges completely alien to our ene- mies. Therefore, We pledge to each other cooperation regardless of political convictions, We pledge to each other our personal integrity and defense against an in- sidious invasion of this integrity, We pledge to each other our knowl- edge that our freedom, in its right- eousness, is lasting. With this pledge of unity, we can form an impregnable wall against the attacks of our enemies, thus protecting that unity we struggled to attain and twice fought to maintain. No effort to hold this unity will be too great if we constantly bear in mind the mighty connection between unity and vic- tory: Whenever the dissolution of . . . Union arrives, America will have reason to exclaim . . . 'Fare- welll A long farewell, to all my greatness'.
