Chapel Scene The scene in the Chapel was viewed. The Glee Club, directed by Mr. Bill Duignan, and guest soloist Mr. J. B. Goetz, sang an arrangement of “Ave Maria” and others. The finale was breathtaking. Amid illuminated clouds stood Blessed Marguerite d’Youville, played by Lucille Mercier. The singing of ‘‘Praise the Lord” brought this outstanding evening to an end. All will agree that this evening will be remembered by the viewers and the performers. A word of ‘thank you’ goes out to all who so generously gave of their time, and congratulation to Sister Brodeur and Mrs. O. J. McNeill, who directed this successful event. Glory Scene

Choir Boys Scene Following this, a chorale was sung by the choir boys of Holy Rosary Cathedral, Twenty-eight young lads, dressed in red and white cassocks, raised their voices to honor Marguerite d’Youville. An amusing scene of community life was next in sequence. It illustrated the fact that in spite of all the trials these dauntless young women faced, there was much room in their hearts for pleasure. At that time the group sang French songs still sung today. £ji|J j jfcUjjj :,s. [ ' mil pPiwint HDUHS rwm K 3 rm WmTfM U lit] r ' g: ' •» - n I.? -— 4.—i |

Socia -Senior A” Activities- As usual, we the “February class” haven’t too much to report and we couldn’t ruin our repu tation at this late date. February 9, 1959, found us gathered at Oscars to celebrate our Second Anniversary of our entry in through the doors of Nursing. Naturally, the evening began with a meal and ended with a show at a nearby theatre. An enjoyable time was had by all. May 23, 1959, figures highly in our “midget-size” note book of activities, the occasion being the Formal honoring the ’59 graduates of R.G.N.H. Our class had the pleasure of putting on the dance, and are grateful for one opporunity of doing something worthy of mention. In July 1959, the “Februarians” moved out of residence . Since then we’ve had numerous “gatherings” (birthdayparties) for the ever-aging seniors, who, although they’ll be leaving, will never forget the good times had by all in the “Halls of Learning” of R.G.N.H. You’re the end of an era, Now aren’t you proud,
