Veni, I idi, ici Veni - It has been such a short time since I came, and yet so much has happened. Each one of us has felt a changeg a change which has been slow but complete. Verri - Why did I come to this high school? I didnit come here because the State law compelled me to go to school. I came here because I was after something- .soniething that is more import'ant than learning 'how to add two and two. I came to obtain some cultural background, without which no girl can ever become a success. These past four years have been my training years. I have learned that people going into the world, especially young women, can accomplish nothing unless they have attained a certain poise, dignity, and learning. Verii - I came, because here I was t'o be taught Religion, the backbone of all education. Living in an environment that is truth would build my character and make me learn to care for my most precious possession-my immortal soul. Vifli - During our stay at Saint Angela Hall, I saw many things. I saw the generosity of the teachers in their tireless efforts so that we might grow into a habit of culture. I saw myself being transformed from an irresponsible child int'o a young woman who has learned not merely what is good, not merely what is better, but what is best, best in the eyes of cultured people, best in the eyes of God. Vici - Yes, I came and I saw, but to say that I have conquered would be a huge overstatement. In high school I can only learn the fundamentals of these things. The seeds are merely planted here, they will take an entire lifetime to grow. Yes, I came and I saw, and I hope in a very short time I can say, HI conquered. RITA MCGOLDRICK. VERITAS Truth crushed to earth shall rise again- The eternal years of God are hers, But Error, woundeci, writhes in pain And dies among his worshippers. -WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT. -...gf4gt,3,.-
