Claire W'illiams, Nancy Sullivan, Theresa Considine, Mary Littlefield The pupils of St. Columbkilleis School have always been most generous in their response to any calls from the Red Cross. This support was particularly evidenced by the work of the members of the Art Class this year, who shared in the making of 500 beautifully decorated menu cards, 250 tray favors, 500 ice cream decorations, 50 three dimensional cutouts, 50 bulletin board pieces, and one center piece. These, together with many calendars, made by the high school classes, were sent before Christmas to our boys serving in the armed forces overseas. Another allotment assigned by the Red Cross was completed in March. Our embryo artists were not alone, however, in their enthusiastic interest in the great work of the Red Cross, Others were engaged in soliciting blood donors, in collecting books, magazines, and canes for use in the hospitals, and making scrapbooks for the childrensi hospitals, while each member of the school contributed wholeheartedly towards the substantial amount of money collected during the Red Cross Drive in March. Through such patriotic endeavors, which also included the purchase of many War Stamps and Bonds, we, on the homefront, hoped in some small way to stand in spirit by the side of our dear ones fighting on farHung battlefields for our safety and the blessing of a just and lasting peace. St. Columbkilleis School was represented at the Junier Red CrOss meetings by Mary Littleheld and Teresa Spanbauer. JOAN CUNNINGHAM, 45

FAREWELL SONNET TO DEAR SAINT COLUMB HIGH SCHOOL A thousand stars against a moonlight sky Are bcckhing with their sparkling silver hue, Reminding us that parting days are nigh, To our dear School we bid a fond adieu! T0 friendly faces that have grown so dear, T0 days Of joy, to little sorrows shared, T0 childlike memories of each succeeding year, To teachers who so lovingly have cared For us though all our youthful hours! Arise we must, with smiles adorn our tears Like dew amid the fragrance of the Howers Sweet Christ, bestow Thy calm oicr all our fears! 0 Mary, dear, protect us in the fray! Saint Columbk spirit guide us on our way!
