These are few of the epithets that describe Loretta; she is a firm believer in that time-old saying: “A friend in need is a friend indeed.” Whether in art or in other activities, Loretta is in the foreground. Her rare talent in art has revealed itself in her contributions to the Senior Spotlight and “The Xavier.” MARY JOSEPHINE McGOWAN 13 Curtis Street Providence, R. I. A charming personality, a loving pal, and a faithful friend. Mary’s favorite subjects are Shorthand and Typewriting, and that she has proven her efficiency in both, we all testify. She is undecided about her future, but, may we surmise that she will succeed as Home Maker? Who says otherwise? Your classmates say heartily God bless you! ROSE GERTRUDE McKEON 674 Winter Street Woonsocket, R. I. A font of living vitality embodied in a sweet, shy personality is Rose, who graced the halls of St. Xavier's for four years and has won fame through her ability in public speaking. She is also one of our star typists and we are certain that these attainments coupled with her quiet, steady perseverance will surely lead to success. CONCETTA MARY MONTI 359 Atwells Avenue Providence, R. I. We love to hear the recitations of Concetta, the most studious girl in our class. Listen to her answers if you want valuable information on any subject. Concetta always takes active and able parts in our programs and works for their success.
