Cur Theme Mary, our Mother, our Queen, is an admirable model for all womankind. No matter what phase of her holy life we contemplate, we find examples of beautiful attributes worthy of imitation. Her childhood, spent in the peaceful seclusion of the temple, was marked by singular obedience and devotion. From an amiable child this Mystical Rose budded forth as a pure and simple maiden who, in accordance with the will of her Creator, most humbly accepted Divine Maternity. In the hidden recesses of the plain, but happy, home in Nazareth, our lovely Lady faithfully and prudently performed her duties as mother of the most perfect Christian family. Her ardent faith and loyalty to her Divine Son prompted the Blessed Virgin to endure many crosses, the greatest of which- that of witnessing the bloody sacrifice of Christ on Mount Calvary- caused a sword of sorrow to pierce her tender heart. As a reward for her faithful pilgrimage in this valley of tears, Mary was miraculously taken into heaven, where she has since reigned on the Imperial Throne in the Kingdom of Paradise as our own dear Mother and celestial Queen. To us our Blessed Mother symbolizes the perfection of all virtues, and we as her affectionate children turn to her with child- like trustfulness for grace and help throughout life to be like her in all our joys and sorrows, trials, and temptations. Therefore we choose Mary, our sweet and inspiring patroness, as the theme of our REGINA ANCILE. Betty Robben, '38. Mary Louise Walker, '38.

Permit us to pause in the maddening rush of daily life to live again those days that now are gone forever. You WILL fly on and leave many irrevocable changes in your wake? Then, alas, we cannot stay. But, Father Time, never, never let the memories of our teachers, our classmates, our friends, and the familiar scenes associated with them grow dim and steal away on silent feet. You can't do that either? Ah, then this little book will serve to recapture the endearing pictures of those we want never to forget. y Now, while Life eagerly beckons, we pause a fleeting second on its threshold to thank our in- numerable patrons- teachers, clergy, parents, friends, all who have afforded us these memories of happy high school days and who have lent a helping hand to make this, our Regina Ancile, possible. Verna Zimmerman, '38.
