Thus our faith in the values of DEMOCRACY was reinforced with a resolve to add to the realities of those values. CHEMISTRY - The Key to the Mysteries of Nature Our study, experiences and observations of the composition and changes in matter reveal the wonderful laws control- ling these changes. Profound study of these points to a Divine Immutable Lawgiver in whom there is no change, nor shadow of alteration .

Give an occasion lo a wise man, and wisdom shall be added lo him. Teach a just man, and he shall make haste Io receive it. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and the knowl- edge of the holy is prudence. -Proverbs IX, 9-10. Open House at the Academy offered opportunities for expression of mutual aid and individual and group skills. It was a time of learning and teaching, giving and receiving. New skills were developed and new talents discovered, a talent for painting here, a talent for organizing there. The Academy became a network of hustle and activity. Among the many projects developed, the choice of the Senior Class rested on the apparitions of the Blessed Mother at Fatima. The joy of our great devotion to the Lady overshadowed the difli- culty of the task entailed by the project. Work, indeed, became for us pleasure because the appari- tion concerned our Patroness, the Immaculate Heart of Mary. With every new additional touch to the design, our love for our Blessed Model increased in fervor. Hand in hand with the spiritual benehts, we have gained meaningful experiences in the practical arts. Equipped with this spiritual and practical knowledge, we hope and pray that we are now ready to face the world with all its difficulties and trials. May the Immaculate Heart of Mary be our Guide and Refuge.

HARVEST OF GRATITUDE On this, our Graduation Day, while joy and sadness prevail in our hearts, we, the Class of 1949, leave these beloved walls of our Alma Mater to launch forth on the careers we have selected. As we cross the threshold of our joyful high school days and enter the vast world which lies before us, we leave behind our deep and heartfelt gratitude to our loving parents, who, we feel, rejoice with us in our triumph. To you, guides of our youth, whose untiring efforts in our behalf will never be forgotten, and who, by your unselfish generosity have enabled us to obtain our most precious heritage, a Catholic education, we owe all our filial love. May the principles of honesty, loyalty and sympathy instilled into our hearts by you, our dearly Beloved Parents, remain with us always and may we prove worthy of your trust. May the Immaculate Heart of Mary obtain for you the joys of everlasting life. 2 - Ni DEAR SBNIORS: if 5 'I A You have finished another chapter K3 'Q In the lovely book called Life , X , W' You have learned on each of its pages f To face all future strife.
