HIRIWIIRII VIRTUTE ET LABORE All out in the field! It's only 5:30 A.M. The St. John Valley morning is dry and chilly as an October day begins. The sunis barely peeking over the Canadian hilltops. The sputtering sound of trucks and tractors swells into a steady rumble, the shouts of men and the cries of children begin to be heard. It's the beginning of a long day's hearty work--potato-harvesting time on any St. John Valley farm. Backbreaking, exhausting work is the daily fare for every able-bodied man. woman, and child. The motto of this Senior Class, Virtute et Labore may perhaps find its happiestmeaning in saying, LaborE- Virtue , a reflection of St. Benedict's To work is to pray. As record- ed in the 1953 Gateway, school days are planting time in life's work schedule. Riper adult age is the season of care and culti- vation. I..ife's end and the hereafter bring the reward of labor and virtue--a harvest of the Beatific Happiness accorded by the Master of the Vineyard.
