THE AGNITA ST. AGNES With faith so firm And heart so bold, She gave her life for Thee. Oh, what, dear God, Would happen if Thou’d ask the same of me? Erect she stood, And then bowed low To let them strike with sword. That maiden pure Well understood Thou’d be her great reward. Ideal of youth, We beg of thee, Oh, set our hearts aflame,- Instil in us That virtue strong Whose symbol is thy name! St. Agnes dear, Sweet patroness Of this our school, we pray— Make firm our faith. Make bold our hearts, And guide us all each day! Give courage strong, And hope, and love, To us who look to thee,- Teach us to say: “Dear God, I’ll do Whate’er Thou askest me. 16 FRANCIS X. JOYCE

THE AGNITA quickly discarded. Every career woman influences those with whom she comes in contact; thus democracy needs and depends upon its good women. We can best realize the necessity of the influence of women of strong character when we compare the United States with what is left of defeated Germany. Germany was preparing for war while the United States was enjoying peace. The German children were taken from their homes and the influence of their mothers,- they were taught military tactics. The children of the United States who were of the same age were still being treated as children. However, when the war came to an end, Germany was defeated for the German soldiers lacked the high ideals that are given to man by the conscientious woman. The German youth fought for Hitler, and in their hour of direst need they discovered that he was not to be relied upon. Having no ideals, they had no incentive to continue. The American soldiers wanted to win the war, and they did win it simply because they had their democracy, their mothers, sisters, and sweethearts whom they thought worthy of the fight. Thus we realize that women in a democracy must stand for high ideals,- they must stand for justice, peace, and high morals. The good woman is always man's safe guide to happiness and success. Hers is a tremendous task, but by prayer and constant effort she can reach her goal. She can exert an irresistible influence in bringing peace and prosperity to the nation. THE CLASS OF 1946 Now that you have begun to scan our book, Take my suggestion—Please don’t overlook The lines referring to each lad and lass, For they made the history of a famous class. With friendship, duty, and all sports combined, A keener class 'twill be hard to find. Many have reached ambitions great goal — A truth attested by the honor roll. Within these pages are both rhymes and themes That tell of fondest hopes and fancy's dreams,- And pictures too of boys and girls who know— Before you reap, you must take time to sow.’ MARY FRANCES GRUBB 15
