In some dear day We call Tomorrow for a better name We'll look again, and treading some strange way We'll heave the same sigh with a heart--the SAME! The same? Yes, if our house of dreams will hold The dear roseateness of the passing hour And based on stronger things than fairy gold Hold in tomorrow-land today's great power! And there will be mature, Madonna eyes With dreams undimmed from hills of yester year And there may be unclouded, sunlit skies And there may be, perhaps. undreamed-of fear. Whate'er of bliss the future years may know In dawns unthought-of at this parting day We'll always scan with joy our long-ago With added strength to climb our upward way. So it is Au Revoir and not Farewel1! Since many swift returns our thoughts will bring. Sweet thoughts that waft to us their magic spell And bid our fond hearts not to sigh, but SING! NINETEEN 'l'lllHTY-EIGHT Page Fifteen lass Ilaistnrp Two years ago we began our Freshman year at Sacred Heart Junior Col- lege. At first we were hesitant and uncertain of our future, but our indecision soon vanished for we were young and this new venture held many possibili- ties. However, our first college days were not altogether encouraging. Teasing upper classmen snubbed our timid efforts to get in line and jeeringly called us Hfrivolous freshiesf' We could not understand them for we did not feel frivol- ous. Our hearts were filled with a determination to work hard and to pile the honors high. We resolved to make these complacent Sophomores realize that we were serious in our efforts to be praiseworthy students. We settled down to earnest work, and as the days dragged, or marched, or sped, according to our individual moods, our lives were being well-rounded socially, educationally, and spiritually. We really lived in deeds, not words and as a due reward we gradually lost our reputation for frivolity. Now and then Freshman pranks did cause us to fall back a few paces, but the relapses occasioned renewed effort and at the end the merits greatly overbalanced the demerits. As we consider the past, we look with amusement upon these slight violations of the rule. They must have been the lingering remnant of the childhood from which we thought we had long since emerged. Then there were the dark days, the days in which our small troubles seemed large ones, the days in which we needed sympathy and consolation. Those troubled times led us to Him who knows our every need, and kneeling at His feet we laid bare our troubled souls, and lol our problems were solved, our tears were dried: and we went forth with renewed courage and determina- tion. Once again the sunshine of happiness had replaced the shadow of sorrow. Relentlessly the hands of time checked off the minutes of our Freshman year and cast them into eternity. The last month was at hand. May passed in a whirl of activities, and our Hrst year of college was completed. One more page had been written in the book of each life. To some we said Au revoir forever: to others, for vacation only, for we expected to return. We did return: we were Junior College graduates. Once more we entered into school life with zest and good will. Old friendships were continued: new friendships blossomed, and side by side they grew in the garden of remembrance. Once again, studies and activities intermingled, each claiming its place on a crowded calendar. We have enjoyed all these things which fill a gir1's school life: we have been proud of our dignity as graduates, but as the year draws to a close we begin to understand the tears at which we were inclined to smile last commencement. At last we realize that the goodbyes must be spoken, the fond embraces must be made. We are filled with a strong determination to prove ourselves worthy of the expectations of our classmates and of our teachers. But we hesitate: we are reluctant to go. to leave Sacred Heart where Cor ad cor loqui- turf' Life calls to us: with one long, last backward glance-we answer.

Page Twenty-two THE EHADATIM lass Ifpistnrp Each of us has her memories of school life in which, day by day, happiness and sorrow were skillfully blended into one exquisite pattern forming, as it were, a colorful tapestry which will be only one of our many life portrayals. The fundamental stitches of this pattern were made when. as the freshest of Freshmen, we entered Sacred Heart Academy and became accustomed to the orderly routine of boarding school- daily Mass, supervised study, innocent, wholesome and invigorating recreation. all made obliga- tory for our well-being. Occasionally, our threads became entangled but the Sisters kindly and patiently helped us to straighten them and often taught us new and useful stitches at which we became quite adept in the years that followed. One of the darkest threads appearing in our design during the freshman year was the death of a classmates father. Her consequent withdrawal from school left us with only nine needle workers for the rest of the year. The next scholastic year, we were glad to be together again, and being Sophomores, We were so very sure of ourselves, that we industriously began work anew on our tapestries, shaping in details and finishing off places that had been neglected during the previous year. Necessarily the sombre shades of languages, mathematics, and history had to be used, but these were relieved by the bright hues of surprise parties, picnics, and movies. all delightfully blended into our scheme of life by the ever vigilant and loving Sisters. To our dismay, wh-en we returned the next year we found only three of last year's class among the Juniors. Because of this fact we three became known as the Three Musketeers. As the year progressed the class formed a closer companionship which grew as we Worked side by side. and helped us to bring into prominence the pastel shades of peace and love. We looked forward with eagerness to the Junior-Senior banquet, and when the time arrived, we gave the Seniors such a time as they never had and made them wish that they could remain forever within these happy walls! One of the happiest moments of our school lives was that soul-stirring instant in which the Seniors changed their tassels from left to right, thereby making us the proud possessors of their singular privileges and of the traditional Senior Dignity. Now we are going to graduate and leave-some of us never to return! We are nine this year, and everyone is a true representative of Sacred Heart, filled with the inspiration which is so essential for the development of practical, Christian womanhood, ever constant and true. The design in each tapestry has been completed. and we may now gaze with some degree of satisfaction upon the finished product. Carefully and with individual attention we have been instructed in the art of blending deep purple with gold, gray with crimson, and black with sky-blue. Being young, we have preferred the brighter threads and gayer designs. Some- times, it has seemed hard to lay aside the orange threads of recreation and take in their place the darker shades of work and study. We have learned that to work in the brighter strands successfully, we must combine with them almost as many dark ones. but we have also learned that too many sombre shades. like shadows, must be brightened by high lights, in order to bring out their real beauty and significance, Now, since the time of graduation has come, let us go forth and use successfully the craftsmanship which we have learned during these happy years as we, day by day, fashion that broader tapestry of our adult life. Let us strive to reflect credit on the Sisters, who, by their experience, diligence and far-sightedness, have helped us to form a refined and delicate, yet .strong background for the design which we shall, in future years. choose to weave into our tapestries. -HELEN JONES. Page Twenty-three NINETEEN THIHTY-EIGHT Sill 575 lass ibrnpbetp Only two more miles! The nearer I came to my destination the more I trembled with emotion. My attempt to visualize our meeting failed because of the questions that came surging through my brain: Will I recognize the girls? Will they remember me? Will the old familiarities be resumed? . . . It was June, 1949 and I was on my way to dear old Sacred Heart, my Alma Mater. For years I had looked forward to this event-the reunion of the class of '38. The bus stopped. I was really in Belmont again, in front of the graceful arch proclaiming in large letters SACRED HEART JUNIOR COLLEGE AND ACADEMY. Forgetting I was no longer a school girl, I grabbed my belongings and started to run up the walk, In spite of the well-known entrance, for a few moments I doubted that I had reached my proper destination. Girls of various sizes came running towards me from all parts of the campus, but the familiar brown and tan uniform was no more. These girls were dressed in a trim dark blue jumper with a pale blue silk blouse, They courteously offered to carry my bags and conducted me towards the buildings. Before we had advanced very far, I heard a laugh peculiar to one person, the dear directress of my school days, Sister Columba. Joy of joys! Once more she embraced me sincerely and affectionately and said, The girls are waiting for you in the old Senior dormi- tory. I needed no further urging. I made my way up the steps to the third floor and ran madly down the corridor. I stopped in front of the door through which I had passed so many times and took a moment to regain my composure. Then with my heart fairly leaping with excitement, I flung open the door . . . I could have saved myself much anxiety. Dottee! Dotteel they cried, as joyfully as any old friend could wish, The first person I spied was Miriam Weldon, resting as usual. She did, however, exert herself enough to rise and give me that old familiar grin and a hug. By that time the other girls realized that I had arrived. and all were trying to reach me. Questions pelted upon me like hailstones. Hey, I cried, in schoolgirl vernacular, Give a person a chance, will you? Glenna Fisher, our little peacemaker, took charge of the situation and soon had everyone seated. Well, I'm ready to start asking questions, I cried gaily, but first, I'm going to do a little guessing. Edith Gallagher. it won't be hard to find out what you have been doing with yourself. The papers are full of you nowadays. You've practically reached the peak in the law profession, haven't you? Well, not exactly, Edith replied modestly, but I have done very well. I always knew that 'gift of gab' would never go to waste, said Miriam. Since you're so smart, Miss Weldon, how about telling us something about yourself? Miriam casually Hung a newspaper at us and said, 'fGaze on that. We gazed all right, for there on the front page was a picture of our Mur- ram, and above the picture we read, Miriam Weldon, Star Guard on National Championship Basketball Team. L'Congratulations, Miriam! You have been climbing! and similar remarks came from different parts of the room, I'm not the only person who has been going up. retorted Miriam. Ask Mary Curlee a few questions. Come on, 'fess up Mary. Well, I've been doing a little dancing, faltered Mary. Page Twenty-four THE GRADATIM Little dancing, nothing! Why only last year she did a command per- formance before the King of England. Wonderful, we all exclaimed in a chorus. l'Say, Emma, we've been hearing a great deal about you these days, I remember when you and I used to talk for hours about our ambitions, I mur- mured. l'Now yours has actually been realized. Can you believe it, girls, when I tell you that little 'Miss Cuba' is the first woman ambassador from Cuba! I think it's wonderful. murmured Glenna. Look at Glenna over there dreaming, mocked Helen. Yes, and we think it's grand, chimed Mary Curlee, Glenna is one of the best known of American interior decorators. Why only last year she did the decorating in the White House! Have you noticed that Helen seems to know a lot about the White House? asked Mary Claire. She should. Can you imagine one of the Seniors of '38 marrying the President's son? It seems hardly possible. Oh, well, returned Mary Evelyn, Helen was cut out to be a social leader. Glenna, who had been silent for quite a while, spoke up, I think we should give a little recognition to Mary Claire. COf course, her last name isn't Allen now.j She's been telling me about that Pulitzer Prize for 1948. You know she practically ran away with the honors. i Oh, yes, mused Edith, Wasn't the name of her book 'Swept by the Breeze? Indeed, it was! I replied, And we certainly have to hand it to Mary Claire. She's built her nest at the top of the tree. I looked inquiringly around the room to see if we had left out anyone. 'iSay, Mary Evelyn, you haven't told us about yourself. Honestly, Dottee, you're still dense. The Latin scholar of our school days now holds the chair of classical languages at Blackrock University, and, as you all know, she has the honor of being the iirst woman promoted to this position. Whewl That's something to boast about, I replied in amazement. UI think it is about time we should do a little visiting around the school, suggested one of the girls. Just a minute, cried Miriam, 'lDorothy hasn't told us anything about herself yet. I refuse to commit myself, was my reply. Looks as if I'll have to do a little talking, Miriam retorted. As you all probably know, the 'Dunce' of our school days has become one of the best known clothing designers on Broadway. She's becoming interna- tionally known and often sets the dress styles in our own country. 'lMiriam, you make me blush, I teased. Pardon me for interrupting such a pleasant conversation, said Helen, but it is 8:30. Let us pretend we are school girls once again and retire with the students. That it should come to this, quoted Edith, 'iWe've been here but two hours and we are falling back into our old habits. We began to prepare for bed. As the old familiar convent bell signalled 9:45, I pushed the light switch. Goodnight all, I cried. 'Everything would be complete if Sister M. Teresa would tap on the door and ask if we had heard the bell. -DOROTHY WALKER.

The aim of the Sodality is to further devotion to the Blessed Mother and to increase in love for her. Every Tuesday inspiring meetings are conducted by the chaplain, and each Saturday the girls sing a High Mass in honor of Mary, the Mother of God. May, the month of Our Lady, is the dearest time of the year to the Sodalists. The crowning event of the year is the May Procession to the grotto of the Blessed Mother. Here, surrounded by her loving children, she is crowned as Queen of May.

In carry- ing Out its high purpose of furthering literary culture, the club conducted regular meetings. At each of these sessions the life and writings of some particular author were selected for study and discussion. Non-club members were wel- comed and derived much pleasure and profit from these excellent programs. We feel that the Meynell Literary Society has exercised a great influence and inspiration to literary appreciation not only for the members of the club, but also for the entire student body.

Capable ofncers were elected who presided over the regular monthly meetings. During these assemblies there were instructive discussions of various musicians, enhanced by characteristic selections of the composers, played by members of the club. For each meeting there were appointed hostesses, who provided refreshments and forms of entertainment, such as musical games and puzzles. The members were thus drawn closer together in the comradeship of a common interest, and to these gatherings the following words of Addison could be applied with truth: l'From social inter- course are derived some of the highest enjoyments of life: where there is a free interchange of sentiments the mind acquires new ideas. and by a frequent exer- cise of its powers, the understanding gains fresh vigor.

Many musical selections were studied, and on numerous occasions, the members were called upon to display their vocal abilities. One of the most outstanding events of the year was the rendering of Carnevali's Mass. Stella Matutinaf' in collaboration with the Choral Club of Belmont Abbey College. Participation in the activities of the club was a source of keen delight to those who appreciate this phase of the fine arts.

Its first production, Camouflage, was a three-act comedy, skillfully and cleverly performed. This was followed by a beautiful tableau, a classical presentation of the spirit of the Angelus. During Holy Week an inspiring sacred drama, The Hill of Triumph, was given and was considered a masterful produc- tion. A detour from the beaten track of English drama was agreeably accom- plished in the staging of the final play of the season, 'lSchola Romana, a Latin play in one act.
