STUDENT COUNCIL Since the Student Council was started two years ago, it has been one of the leading disciplinary factors of St. Angela Hall. Under its guidance, the girls have acquired a sense of responsibility. In matters of conduct, uniform dress, and care of the school, a stronger student sentiment has been aroused. The Student Council is the governing body of the undergraduates. The officers are elected and Work in conjunction with the class representatives and student body. It has been the duty of the Council t'o. preserve law and order in the school. The representatives have patrolled the halls, kept order in the cafeteria, and held guard at strategic posts on the st'airs. Under the firm and careful hands of the faculty adviser, we truly believe that in years to come, the Student Council will exercise an even greater inHuence upon student' affairs. Doris Wixted was the Student Council President for the Fall Term, and Rita lVlcGoldrick for the Spring Term. RITA MCGOLDRICK. -..,e2l59lga,...

ROSA MYSTIGA UNIT Down through the ages, heroes of romance, history, and religion have emblaz- oned t'heir shields and banners with the emblems dearest to their hearts as an inspiration to greater achievements and as a pledge of fidelity to the great cause. Members of the Catholic Students Mission Crusade of St. Angela Hall know the joys of being enrolled in mission work under the lovely emblem of 44Rosa Mysticafi How singularly fitting that we, buds of Catholic womanhood, should have pledged ourselves to mission work with the 'cRosa Mystican' as our inspiration. In years to come, the full bloom of our love for our fellowmen will be the inspir- ation t'hat will lead them to God. Each one of us will be a true Crusader in her own walk of life. Many of us will have the responsibility of caring for little children, and as we wipe away the tears from soft white cheeks we will be reminded of morning dew on the NRosa Mysticaf, The whole world is torn with warg some of us may be called upon to feel the thorns of the MRosa Mysticaf, Others may go so far as to close the eyes of abandoned waifs in far-off China. Through all life's battles, the sweetness of Rosa Mystican will strengthen our weaknesses and guide us aright. The practice of small sacrifices for the missions will have prepared us for bigger sacrifices, and the joys of fulfillment' will all be realized when, as a great bouquet, through the hands of c'Rosa Mystican, we lay' down our life's work at the feet of Him who as the little child of Mary '4Of her tall body climbed the Ivory Tower To kiss upon her lips the Mystic Rosef' PEGGY CARLIN. -,,.g5f60t.3a,,.-
