Perhaps no one person on the outside has been and is so closely con- nected with Sacred Heart Academy as Father Charles. His work as a mis- sicner in a largely non-Catholic state is probably the most varied. He preaches every Sunday in the parish church of which he is the pastor; he sponsors a regular program over the radio, and he spreads love and appre- ciation of Christ ' s Mass all over the south, through his beautiful moving picture and instructive talks. Father Charles is loved by and is an inspiration to everyone at Sacred Heart Academy and Convent. He has and does provide the students many hours of enjoyment by trips in his bus — the same bus in which he daily transports children to and from school. His route covers a course of some sixty miles. He is always willing to assist the Sisters in any of their pro- jects. The graduating class of ' 33, publishers of The Gradatim. takes this op- 1 ■■ rtunity to express the appreciation of Sacred Heart Academy to Father Charles for all his kindness — with the thought in mind that God will bless him for his goodness and inspire him in his work. IBE 3BE 3BI (the 3facultii Their silent self-effacement and faithfulness as teachers combined with discipline and sincere counsel have resulted in the culmination of ideals both spiritual and scholastic. Under their prudent guidance, so earnestly and gratuitously bestowed upon us, we have learned not only the ways of the world, but have obtained a finer appreciation of the higher things in this life. To those who sing His mercies, we extend our heart-felt gratitude for their two-fold gifts, spiritual and temporal, which they have so generously rendered us both by example and instruction. — Vivian Frierson II IBE = 1 1=11= 31 J B[ 5 3E 3BE 3GE1E 3HE |Ub or White?

Then I ' d remember that His lips Were red when first she held Him close But her ' s were pale when Egypt ' s night Enveloped them — safe from their foes Love made her lily-white, indeed. Full often in the meagre years The holy Three were sore in need And Mother-eyes had known of tears. But Love was red on Calvary ' s height When He — her Joy — was crucified: Yet Mother Mary ' s cheek was white When she beheld the flowing tide; And H , Whose red lips oft she pressed Was whiter than the drifted snow, Yet, as she held Him to her breast His open wounds gave crimson glow. So bring me white and bring me red. I think I ' d sav, for Mary ' s shrine, For Love is white and love is red.

The bewitching strains of an old song are running riot through my memory. Mother used to sing that song ' way back in my cradle days. I must pause to listen. When You Come to the End of a Per- fect Day. That ' s enough. The other words are gone beyond recall. And, I ' m not sorry. The opening words are the Open Sesame to my mood. I have come to the end of a perfect school career. This morning marks that end. I am graduating now. The Sacred Heart Academy has just admitted me to its Alumnae. In my hand I hold its diploma. Gone are my school days. Am I glad or am I sad? A scrutinium of my conscious state would reveal lots o f gladness and heaps of sadness. A tear and a smile express themselves in the eyes of my soul. Today, my last day in school, marks the beginning of an individual life of responsibility. Today I begin to Paddl e my own canoe. No Sisters to keep me, to direct me, to encourage. I ' m on my own. Doubts as to my ability, hesitations as to my courage, questions as to my determination are persist- ent now, and tend to sadden a wee bit my perfect day. Today, my gradua- tion day, marks the end of delightful associations with the undergraduates, the end of loving companionships with my classmates, the end of sacred friendships with my teachers and the end of a happy life at the Academy. Who is there to chide me for harboring the saddening tear? But the tear is not dominant. A smile radiates from my soul. Why not? Today I am celebrating my triumph. I have won a diploma. To me it is a booty without price. Just think, the good Sisters have judged me worthy to be numbered among their graduates. Blame not my smile. Nay, rather smile with me. I ' ve won. But I must confess to the sin of selfishness in harboring this mood. Big I it has been — all the way through. Perhaps I have left you under the im- pression that this event is my own personal triumph. Be disabused, please, and pardon my egotism. It is true that I am a graduate, but I am just one — perhaps the least de- serving of the class. And I am speaking now not to sing MY praises nor to weep MY tears, but as a representative of the class. I have been chosen by them to say Goodbye. Maybe they are thinking and feeling in unison with me. They, too, are harboring tears and smiles. They, too, hear The End of a Perfect Day. But I must hasten to do their bidding. The Farewells must be said: To you, undergraduates — to you we leave the torch. Be it yours to hold on high — not for yourselves and not for Sacred Heart Academy, but for the onor and glory of God. Our years of association with you have indeed been happy ones. We beg of you, catch the strains of that song which pervad- ing our hearts, so that when your day comes, your day too, will have a happy ending. We bid you farewell. = =  ■ ■- ' -i-mi =i r=v 3G3E 3E3C 3 ESC Dear Sisters of Mercy, under whose loving care we have been the past four years — the memory of you will always be sacred. In bidding you good- bye, we hesitate to thank you for the patience, justice, and love you have always given us. May we, dear classmates, carry their lessons all through life. To you, dear Sisters, we do say Thank You and Goodbye. Classmates, I have done your bidding. Thank you for having selected me to voice your farewells. Now, we have our own Goodbyes to say. The tear increases, the smile diminishes. Let us be brief. Words aggravate the pain. At the end of this perfect dav, let ' s kiss and pray, — God bless us all — Fare- well ! — Gertrude Field With arms outstretched you welcomed us, When we came to S. H. A. Oh bless us now, dear Sacred Heart ! Ere from here we go away. 3G3E 3H[ 3E3 ir=i i ' =11 ii=i i n =[ (Concerniim Ms There is a certain passage in Cicero ' s memorable De Scenectute which, in our language, means Men on reaching the peak of their accomplish- ments, love to sit back and tell of the ways they managed their good for- tune. Then again, from Shakespeare, we could offer the phrase, The evil ihat men do lives after them. We feel that these two phrases are neces- sary to carry out a real description of the life of this year ' s graduating class. We, having reached the zenith of our educational existence, take the liberty of doing as the Romans did, and offer these few facts about the Class of ' 33. September, 1929, found us Freshmen at Sacred Heart Academy. We took on all the vanities of a Freshie. We were constantly wondering who was looking at us ; whether we could pass for eighteen at next summer ' s dances ; and wondering too, what could be the use of History, Latin, French and Spanish. The year passed quickly, too quickly, and we were home again for the summer vacation. The following September found us once more in the halls of the Academy. There were stories to be told — about vacation. A few of us found that we could NOT pass a s eighteen. The previous spirit of Sophistication, where ert thou was joined with a spirit known to educational psychologists as Sophomoritis. We broadened on the subjects we had become initiated to the year before. About May, a few of us who were inclined to be serious- minded started th ' nking that everything in this world is not make believe — that there are a few realities to be faced — but June came too soon and no good came of those serious thoughts. Our Junior year was our most beneficial. We learned more about books and we learned more about life. We proved the square on the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the other two sides — this we learned to do in Plane Geometry. However, quiet meditation, combined with the lively functioning of a seventeen year old girl ' s mind, proved to us that the appre- ciation of the real things of God and life equals the sum of individual good will aid the carrying out of the religious principles inculcated in our hearts by the good Fathers and Sisters. Ar.d now, our Senior year, is almost over. We have passed over that child- like sophistication which was over four years ago, and we have taken on the simplicity of true Children of Mary. We owe much to Sacred Heart Acad- ( my. We are proud of our Class, our School and ourselves. We are ready to go out on the stage of life — some will go to college, others to business, and to various walks of life. Whatever the future holds in store for us, these past four years have bound us so closely together that there will never be a night in our lives when we do not get down on our knees and whisper, God bless Sacred Heart Academy — God bless that Class of ' 33. — Teresa Doyle a 1=1 1 — ! =i i=n- =1 1 1 1=1 1 1 1=1 1 =1 1=1 1 =1 1= LIBRARY AND READING-ROOM MC 3E = = =i i 1 1=1 1 =ir=i i — ; r= 3E 3E3E EEJE seek Women ffaire CLo jUnom (Class Prophecy) Looking back o ' er the past, many centuries ago. To the days when ice-cream was made out of snow. We find there existed ' mong races of men. The same causes which now move many a pen, To write. And among these causes in days long ago. Curiosity was found by a man named Joe, He wrapped it up in — I think cellophane. Which surely you know was invented by Cain. Abel ' s brother. Cur iosity was divided into various forms ; The kind that wonders ' bout eclipses and storms And the kind that we know has driven men mad, And the sort we are surely so glad can be had, Only by women. But turning the pages to our own modern times, Some wonder as we try to compose these few rimes. What the future holds in store for our girls. What will be places they take in worlds Unknown.

Weak, because it suggests supposition, unstableness, and lack of foundation. Those things are true. However, maybe the subjunctive mood, even in its suppositional sense, can be used to some advantage. Suppose I were a Freshman again. What should I do? Still, suppose I were a Freshman again and were back at S. H. A. ? Very probably, my life would be altered to a great extent. We all agree that a Freshie is a thing which has to be contended with, in every walk of life. But, back to the sub- ject, what should I do? The chance once given, — at the outset, I would probably seize the oppor- tunity to begin anew. I should walk with that sophisticated air which sug- gests stately Seniors. Certainly, I would say It is I instead of It is me. Then too. I should act in a more dignified manner at the bridge table. I should not talk about my partner because she raised me without an outside ace. Social life at S. H. A. would mean more to me. I should try to establish lasting friendships, thereby creating that congeniality which is so neces- sary for a happy school-life. My education would be imbibed indoors and out, — athletics would mean more to me. I should go out for all the teams, because the school code gives me that advantage of becoming a fitting per- son, mentally and bodily. My fellow-students, — I should remember that a school should be like a family. We should expect quarrels and differences, but at the crucial time, we should express in unison the bond that joins school-comrades. To the sisters, my teachers, I should give the proper re- spect. I should realize that although their work is done with a supernatural motive, nevertheless, they always remain human beings, and I should not expect them to do everything perfectly. But, what would be my spiritual attitude if I were given another chance? I know now that I should pray to God — should pray fervently and often. I should remember that faith is a gift, and that I am expected to do more fiian my duty. How should I pray for graces if I did not have a spiritual store-house? To do otherwise would be presumption, surely a deadly sin. I should not talk too much. Loquaciousness is the external sign of a novice, a person in the primary stages of a new life. If one wants to know how to operate an airplane let him or her be sure to ask a person who has never been up. True, I should find how to spend my leisure time to its greatest advantage. After all, I certf inly wasted time when I was a Fresh- man. I should be modest — I ' ve learned that qubtness always attracts atten- tion. Certainly, I should study — not merely memorize lessons for Sister Who- ever She Might Be, but I should employ my knowledge in comparisons with every-day life. I should read good wholesome books — not magazines about ir= n —n .1 1=1 1 =i -i r=ir movie heroes and heroines, but solid, substantial material. It is not neces- sary to say that I should be neat at all times — we all know that. But. to mingle with that neatness of finery, I should acquire a neat disposition. By that I mean my disposition should be uniform and consistent. All this advice is good. But in me there is a personality that I prize highly my greatest gift from God. I want to be MYSELF. The mere fact that I lealize now the things that should be done, proves that my years have been worth while. If. from now on. I strive mightily to keep in the path that God has fixed for me, then my strivings have been worth while. If I would do all the things I should do. I would be perfect. — if I do all the things that are natural to me. always combined with a sound appreciation of primary ethics. — then I am happy. Therefore, if I were given the chance to be a Freshman again. I would always be I. Certainly, if we all were consistent- ly natural, that sano naturalnsss would surely make this a better and hap- pier world. — Marie Sasssen PRIVATE ROOM C. Keenan H. Lewis R.
