Wieman, future D.W.'s. We may have missed the episode of Susie Q's latest fiasco in the chemistry laboratory and we find out the scintil- lating details in toto in that trusty old gossip column-Re- cord'Em. Or we indulge in a bit of self-expression in Wisdom Speaks as we address our cheers or gripes to our enterpris- ing editor-in-chief, Gail Gilroy. In the interests of education and a philosophy of lite, we have had many enlightening responses to that curious inquiring reporter. There's oh-so-much fun in Sagesse and it's much more than that. lt's all ourselves, by us and for us- and how eagerly we await the next copyl Carolyn Reres staff photographer W fs W9 ' W y .,,,, r kof ski- 5.

Gail Gilroy Editor-in-Chief Dorene Rohne and Patricia Studley pick up an interesting tidbit for Getting The Sagesse! Sagessel Sagesse! Yes, you know it's the name of the school paper. But don't say like one Will Shakespeare, What's in a name? -because we are go- ing to dispute with the wise old genius and say Sagesse means very much to us. Translated from the French, Sagesse means wisdom, and wisdom predicates know- ledge, respect and beauty of mind-certainly a title to want to live up to. Besides reporting important events and reflecting the general school spirit in its editorials, Sagesse is the mirror of the daily school lives and times of Wisdomites. We see ourselves as our friends see us, we see our names in print at one time or another. ff

The legionnaires of Wisdom are only a few in Mary's vast army, but as students of Montfort's daughters, they have the advantage of a more in- timate understanding of its aims and spirit. The obiect of the Legion is the sanctification of its members by prayer and active cooperation in Mary's and the Church's work of crushing the head of the serpent and advancing the reign of Christ. The spirit of the Legion is that of Mary herself. Especially does the Legion aspire after her profound humility, her selffsacrificing love of God and her incomparable faith. Wisdom is proud of its five praesidia with a total of about 80 members. Although their activity is necessarily restricted because of their status as Junior Legionnaires, yet the girls act as a leaven for the entire student body by their Marylikeness.
