OTHER and FATHER As faithful friends and frequent financiers, the Mothers' and Fathers' Clubs of St. Agnes devote their time benefitting the school by cooperating with the faculty in trying to give the girls the best possible education and by sponsoring various activities each year to help the school. This year. the mothers employed their untiring efforts towards successfully execut- ing the annual Christmas Party: the yearly Spring card party and finally the traditional Mother-Daughter Communion Breakfast, for the purpose of furnishing the 'Amodel room of the home economics department. Despite the handicap of being only two years old, the Fathers' Club of St. Agnes has encountered exceptional success in its financial undertakings. An example of this is the proceeds obtained this year from the second annual Turkey Festival held in November which immeasurably aided the school.

MOST REVEREND LAWRENCE B. CASEY. DD Titular Bishop of Cea Auxiliary to the Bishop of Rochester Cjun tlxamlQQ go to wang. Shoulder to the wheel, and Nose to the grind stone, Father Le Veque supports every school project with vim and vigor besides carrying on his regular duties as our Chaplain and spiritual advisor. The Fathers' Club too, is all the richer for his presence as moderator. Father came to St. Agnes with the freshmen who now make up the graduating class. In those first few months he had to learn the names of all the girls enrolled in the school. Now almost that many enroll in the freshman class each fall. Name-learning is no easy task, but he does it. May we now say Thank you Father for all that you have done for us. Sometimes we forget the small thank- you's. but they are in our hearts. ff REVEREND IOHN LE VEQUE Chaplain

Homcmaking 1, II, III One of our greatest debts of gratitude is owed to Sister Rose Alma. Planning schedules for over seven hundred of us with courses of study to Ht individual abilities and future re- quirements, striving to guide us down the path of right think- ing, and praying endlessly to God for us are only a few of the tasks which fill Sister's day. As yet, our realization of her concern for us is small, but as we grow older and must shoulder our own responsibilities, we will realize how many prayers we should offer to God for Sister Rose Alma, who has done so much for us. ONE OF THE PLEASING changes inaugurated by Sister Rose Alma this year was the handing out of schedules a few days before school opened in September. Some adjustments are made in Ianuary as Dorothy and Mary Munch see here, but such Care goes into the schedule planning that the majority Ht perfectly. . 5 . , , Q, , , , i f t t i rgw igg ftg ,M i ,.
