be (SraDatim CLASS HISTORY It was one of those rare days in June, when Mother Nature is at the height of her beauty, when the summer breeze is saturated with the fragrance of the dehcate flowers that nod to one another as they sway to and fro. I was seated on the terrace enjoying Hfc as contentedly as a grandmother is capable of. when she has been looking back into her school days and realizes that they are gone forever. My thoughts were interrupted by the patter of tiny feet and the sound of a tiny voice calling. Granny. she began, her chubby face wreathed in smiles, her eyes entreating, please tell me a story, I could not refuse. I agreed to tell her about my school days. She settled herself on a footstool close to my chair and patiently waited for me to begin. I hesitated for a moment and felt the nudge of a little hand and heard, Go on. Granny. Without further ado I began: When our class left port ' Grammar School ' to cross the sea of ' Academic Courses ' there were only two members aboard the good ship ' Study. ' Each year we increased until when we sighted our destiny, the lovely island called ' Graduation ' wc had reached the tradi- tional number — ten. As Freshman, our class was the current joke — the largest class in the school. We were teased from September to June, but this did not daunt our courage, we merely resolved to to Show ' em, eh Granny. cried Jacqueline enthusiastically. Yes, Jackie, that is it exactly. Our ship continued and wc soon found ourselves in the midst of the strait called ' Sophomore Year. ' Wc were thrilled to think that, though we were called ' foolishly wise ' we were the sister class of the seniors. During our Junior year one thought alone remained constantly before us — next year we would be Seniors. Impatiently we waited, while time seemed to deliberately slip by lazily and nonchalantly. Then the big day came, the first day of our Senior year. Everyone of us felt a tremor of a thrill surge through us as wc realized that at last our dreams had come true. After a year crowded with pleasures and activities, we came to the parting of ways. Although we had longed for our cap and gown, it was not without a feeling of sorrow that wc donned them and marched for the last time down the aisle for our diplomas. Oh, Granny, said Jackie thoughtfully, Do you suppose I will have as good a time when I go there? I am sure of it, dearie, for SACRED HEART will never change. — Margaret MiDDLETON. Class Historian.
