It is the record of happy memories of my academic years at Saint Xavier’s. “Book I” pictures a crowded campus. Of course, it is Saint Xavier’s. Sen- iors, Juniors, and Sophomores look very happy, cheerful and enthusiastic, but the frightful expressions of the Freshmen make part of the scene conspicuous. Poor Freshmen! Everything is strange, faces are stranger, and the teachers are the strangest. Before long the scene changes. The Freshmen are grouped and assigned to their respective classrooms. The book list is received by each Fresh- man. They are advised to have the books as soon as possible. Soon?—in fact the next day to start classes with a great deal of home assignments. What a situation! The first privilege granted the Freshmen was that of making a visit to the Convent Chapel to pay homage to our Lady of Mercy on her feast day. This was followed by class elections and class meetings. In the latter part of October they attended the first assembly, a motion picture of “Columbus in the New World”. The usual annual visit was made by Reverend Father Donovan. On December eleventh they witnessed the glorious “Pageant of Mercy” commem- orating the Centennial of the Sisters of Mercy, a presentation which will always awaken fond recollections. Then the bi-centennial of George Washington was celebrated by a patriotic program. Next, Mrs. Kathleen Norris, renowned novelist, visited the Academy. The Freshmen classes sponsored a bridge, which proved very successful. The final examinations and reports closed the record. “Book II” records the largest registration ever enrolled in the history of Saint Xavier’s. About two hundred girls entered the Sophomore class. The girls were separated into four groups: Classical. English, and two Commercial divisions. After the classes were arranged, studies were resumed. Once again, the students visited the chapel on Mercy Day. Election of officers followed. On October twelfth our late beloved Bishop honored the students and faculty by witnessing the Columbus Day Program. Later Reverend Father Ranaghan lec- tured on the Chinese Missions. Our beloved Mother General. Mother Mary Carmelita, visited Saint Xavier's. Reverend Gerald F. Dillon was appointed spiritual director. In honor of the Immaculate Conception on December sev- enth, the students were invested in the miraculous medal. The next incident which was of extreme importance to all of us was our retreat by Reverend Father Donovan. Next on our program was our Sophomore Assembly fol- lowed by the operetta Chonita”. A wonderful privilege was then given to us, that was a series of lectures given by Mrs. Theodosia Crosse, entitled “Social Customs”. This was followed by a visit from our late Bishop Hickey. Our school year ended, we parted to meet again as distinguished “Juniors . “Book III” reviews many educational and entertaining assemblies of our Junior year. Mercy Day was celebrated by exercises in the auditorium. Reverend Father Dillon addressed the students on the topic, “Our Lady of Mercy”. This pro- gram was concluded by Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament. A motion picture entitled the “Gift of Montezuma” was given by the Hershey Company. Catholic Education Week was observed with a special program: Reverend J. T. [68 Fitzgerald. O. P. was guest speaker. Our Junior Assembly presented an excel- lent program to conclude the observance of Book Week’’. On the seventh of December a musical drama, Bernadette of Lourdes , marked the canonization of the saint. The drama was enthusiastically received by the public. Mrs. Theodosia Crosse presented a dramatic recital of Schiller’s masterpiece Mary Stuart , on the twenty-fifth of February. Then followed the presentation of the Irish Musical Drama. Geraldine”, by our Junior Dramatic Club. In ob- servance of National Vocation Week the program included guest speakers of the various careers. They were: Mrs. Charles A. Grimes. The Home Beau- tiful : Mrs. George Gray, Social Service : Miss Winifred Fitzpatrick, Nurs- ing Profession”: Mrs. Samuel Gilmore. “Motherhood”: Miss Helen Gallivan. The Business Career . Reverend Thomas Cassidy gave the final message on Vocations”. The Orchestral and Glee Clubs presented their annual musical programs. Mr. Robert E. McMillan delivered an illustrated lecture, “The Chi- cago World's Fair”. In the latter part of May. our newly consecrated Bishop, Most Reverend Francis P. Keough, made his first visit to the students and fac- ulty. Members of the student body presented a delightful program entitled “The Shepherd of His Flock”. His brief address will ever linger in our memory. The year closed as usual with the greatest of all treats, examinations and re- ports! ! ! The last and most important step—the Senior year—is recorded in Book IV”. Our last Mercy Day Pilgrimage was conducted in the auditorium. We were honored with a visit from many distinguished persons. The first guest was Miss Elizabeth Moakler, president of the Alumnae. Each Senior had the honor of meeting Miss Moakler individually. Next was Father Hubbard, the Glacier Priest , and Father Leven from Oklahoma. Religion classes and The Mercy Truth Crusaders, supervised by Reverend Father Dillon, were begun. The Senior Dramatic Club made its first appearance in a delightful play. The Honor of the Class . Again, near Hallowe’en, we were entertained by another one-act play, The House in Laurel Lane . The Christmas play. Bethlehem”, met with a great response from the public. After the mid-year examinations a successful retreat was conducted by Reverend Father Scott, O. S. F. C. The Seniors were given the privilege of singing the Missa Cantata . Then followed a visit from Mrs. Theodosia Crosse, who lectured on the Attributes of Per- sonality”. The S. X. A. Glee Club and Orchestra gave an operetta and orches- tral concert in March. The crowning of all scenes—graduation—could not be recorded since the “Book Review” was due at the Printer's early in April. Thus closes Book IV of my high school career at Saint Xavier's Academy— only four short years of joyful and pleasant memories. Mary M. Curran Irene C. McKenna Virginia M. Roche Rose M.

I bequeath my most prized possession, my book shop.” Startled. I sat upright in my chair. Uncle Robert had willed his book shop to me! Dear Uncle Bob, he always had a knack of knowing just what you wanted. His sudden death had left us all stunned and it was a very sorrowful group, indeed, that had assembled for the reading of his will. So surprised was I at the thought of my inheritance that I heard no more until the noise of the other people leaving the room aroused me. Promptly I arose and followed them out of the room. A week later I was comfortably settled in my new business: yet in that short time, I had become very much attached to my quaint little shop. You must admit that there is something interesting and mysterious about a book shop with its collection of all imaginable books. It seemed incredible, I thought, that such a small shop could possibly hold so many books. I hadn’t, as yet, the time to do much exploring but perhaps tomorrow—. Suddenly the thought came to me. “Why not now?” Come to think of it, there hadn’t been a cus- tomer all day!” Delighted with this prospect of possible adventure. I jumped to my feet. But then, where should I begin? There were myriads of shelves and who knew but perhaps one of them held some dark and hidden secret. Finally I decided to try the top shelf. That is what heroines usually do in stories when they are in quest of adventure. Standing on the ladder. I reached for one of the books. As I took it down, a cloud of dust came with it. Well. I thought, it certainly doesn’t look as though this shelf had been touched fof years. Why, the dust on the book was surely an inch thick! But perhaps dusty books and mysteries go together. Well, I surely wouldn’t find out by looking at the book. The sensible thing would be to dust it off. Some- how, the book looked strangely familiar and as I removed the last vestige of dust, the words, the Xavier, 1935 stood out on the cover. The Xavier, 1935? That was the year I had been graduated! Only ten years ago but it seemed longer than that! I was about to devour the pages when an interruption came in the form of a salesman, a Representative of one of America's largest book- publishing houses. He presented me with the latest “Who’s Who of America which became my first purchase for the Old Book Shop. The Agent departed wondering, perhaps, at the ready sale he had made. But he could not know that I had glimpsed the headlines of a section which called to me from the glor- ious days of S. X. A. 1935 Saint Xavier’s Academy 1945 Graduate Survey Helen B.

You know, a mystery story, something unusual.” Now where would I find a mystery story—something really unusual? Why. on the top shelf, of course, for after all do not dusty shelves and mysteries go together? Class Will We, the already famous Class of 1935, of Saint Xavier's Academy, though somewhat fatigued by incessant mental toil but still of sound and disposing mind and memory, and being about to pass out of this sphere of education, do make and declare void all former wills and testaments, declaring this to be our last. TO THE ACADEMY: Our everlasting loyalty by attending the Alumnae meetings and taking active part in whatever they may sponsor. A daily remembrance of prayers for the success of the future Salve Regina College. TO THE FACULTY: Our promise to try to live up to the Ideals of Catholic Action, that they have so frequently set before us. All of our unfinished assignments and superior recitations; we also will to them, peaceful nights and undisturbed slumber, for no longer will they have to worry about our exams (nor will we). Rest will be theirs, a well- earned rest from arduous labor. TO THE JUNIORS: The Senior dignity. The privilege of returning to classes after lunch in separate groups. The pleasure of being the guardians of our three year old Xavierette and the ambition to make it bigger and better. The privilege of being the girls who are lucky to wear a red tie. The honor of having the first seats in the Auditorium. The same ardent desire for study and learning that we had. The privilege and joy of obtaining a one-hundred word certificate in shorthand. The honor of winning a typing contest with the La Salle Boys. TO THE SOPHOMORES: The pleasure of occupying the new building. The pleasure of finding out the mechanism of typewriters. The honor of learning the first principles of Chemistry. The pleasure of being called the Dignified Juniors . The pleasure of learning bookkeeping for the first time. TTIHnB MWER-J19 3S 176 TO THE FRESHMEN: The privilege of wearing a different tie other than green. The pleasure of becoming introduced to Mr. Gregg through the study of shorthand. The privilege of selecting the course you most desire. The Senior Classical division bequeath the honor of co-guardianship of Mary Patricia, our Chinese baby, to all of the incoming Classical Sophomores. TO THE INCOMING CLASS: The honor and privilege of enlisting as students of S. X. A. The everlasting longing to become at least a Sophomore. The pleasure of meeting new friends and teachers. The honor and privilege of wearing a St. Xavier's uniform. Lastly, we do nominate and appoint our said Junior Class of '35 to the office of executors of this, our Last Will and Testament.

Rita Marie Costello JUNIORS I uniors Best wishes to the Juniors of today, the Seniors of 1936! During this past year they have been remarkably successful in all their undertakings and we feel that their title as Seniors is well merited. Their athletic ability has proved them worthy as one of the school's best teams and has placed them in the rank of leadership. We must also remember the cooperation which they extended in making our Glee Club a social as well as a financial success. It is easy to see that whatever tasks have been placed be- fore them during this year they have succeeded in triumphantly. Saint Xavier’s Academy and the Class of 1935 know that the Juniors will, in the future, faithfully help to keep dear Alma Mater in highest esteem. Lucille E. Forest OTIHns o 1035° [80 81] SOPHOMORES I AND II ophomores Experienced Freshmen are called Sophomores but we introduce the groups so late in the year that they are really on the threshold of their third year. These students are very enterprising, progressive, and cooperative. Their mission activ- ities. literary contributions published in the Xavierette, the crowning event, the Sophomore Assembly, and their list of names on the Honor Roll qualify the class as outstanding. They have made an excellent start. What may they not do? Kathleen M. Cullinane TTHIIB WIIEIH,oi©3 |82 1935 ° FRESHMEN I i rcsl reshmen The class of 1935 shall always remember the little darlings of the academy. They shall be remembered for their good will and helpfulness towards the Sen- iors and every other class of the school. We could not have succeeded without your cheery and carefree chatter, dear Freshmen, and we pay you a tribute for learning in so short a time how to be such perfect little ladies. You have made a brilliant start and there are many shining stars among you. You have shown great possibilities and the graduating class is cheering for you. So, little ladies, when the game seems a little hard, keep your spirits high. Be glad you are only Freshmen and aspire to make that Freshman year a tiny token of girlish love to place before Our Lady's feet when you are departing, as we are now, from our beloved Academy.

Rita Marie Costello Organizations Through the medium of study clubs, societies, and athletic activities, educa- tion assumes a more pleasing, interesting, and attractive form. The responsibil- ity of presenting or taking part in a program develops poise, initiative, depend- ability, and personality. Perfection in intellectual development is attained after careful and constant study, aided by prayer and good works. Thus, by combining spiritual and temporal activities in a variety of clubs, our Academy is considered complete in its program of advancement. Mary Virginia Manchester The jM-ercy T ruth Crusad rusaders The Mercy Truth Crusaders, which is a group composed of the members of the Senior Class, has for its purpose each year, the study of some important aspect of the Catholic religion. The topic assigned this year was the “Personal- ity of Christ . Although many of the discussions rose to philosophical heights, they were, for the main part, confined to making the reality and closeness of Christ felt to the listeners. The Crusaders met each Friday morning at eleven o’clock in the auditorium under the direction of Reverend Father Dillon. The meeting opened with the singing of the “Veni Creator”, after which the appointed members read their papers. The New Testament was our source book. The first student, “Voice of Imagination”, endeavored to depict vividly the Gospel scene. The Voice of Intellect” then tried to show how the particular event fitted into the Divine plan. The “Voice of Will” showed us how we could conform our daily lives to Christ. With the conclusion of the papers, it was customary for the members of the club to voice their opinions, and to ask questions concerning anything about which they were doubtful. Our Spiritual Director by his explanations, elabo- rated the subject and further explained the points in question. The meeting was brought to a close by the singing of the Magnificat”. With the knowledge reaped from the club, the Seniors are better able to ap- preciate our religion and to defend it. Mary E. Davis OTIHIB XAVIBRoioaSo 188 1 o reign A1.1SS1 issions Probably the most beloved feature of Saint Xavier's Academy is that of the Foreign Missions. During the scholastic year each class gives some form of en- tertainment for the benefit of the missions, with the rest of the student body acting as their supporters. At the class meetings each week, girls read about and discuss the missions. Some of the classes already have adopted little Chinese children by sending do- nations monthly to the missions for the children’s support. Charity calls down God's special blessings on those who share in this won- derful work. Our society is really an extension of the English Club, but greater freedom is allowed. And. too, it is exclusive: for it is composed of contributors to the Xavierette. our school paper. These aspiring authoresses, by their writings, per- form the work of Catholic Action. This, being the second year of the publica- tion of the Xavier's little sister , the membership of the Literary Society is gradually increasing. The first Friday of every month heralds its meetings, which are made interesting by the presentation of reviews of a play, a short story, current events, and an essay. With the coming years may it fulfill all our ex- pectations and enjoy continued success! To Saint Xavier's current events means more than just an account of everyday happenings: it means what the Academy is doing collectively and in- dividually, for God and country. Always on the top, Saint Xavier’s made a splendid showing in the recent Mission essay contest. While not the victor, we were one of the few schools as runner-up and received in consequence, honorable mention. During the recent persecution in Mexico, Saint Xavier’s was one of the first Catholic schools to voice its disapproval. Protest took the form of prayer for this afflicted country. In order to keep in touch with the doings of the outside world and to in- sure a straightforward Catholic viewpoint, we are proud to acknowledge the “Young Catholic Messenger”: Uncle Sam's Diary”: America”: The Com- monweal” and The Congressional Record . The students have every oppor- tunity for contact with progressive civilization. Anna Eileen Bresnahan Frances R. LaSalle Current Events Helen B.

The first anniversary found the infant bursting its swad- dling bands and insisting on more space. The paper is now five columns in- stead of four with permanent columns. We are most appreciative of Our Spir- itual Director's column, and very grateful to all contributors. Though the paper has not been entered in any contest, yet the little publication attracted the attention of a fairy godmother who made possible for the Staff, by a generous check, a trip to Boston—to witness the incomparable Lenten drama, “Pilate's Daughter . What may we not expect from the succeeding staff! Ellen Marie Perkins THESE 1933 nrinn© io3 ROSA MYSTICA PLAYERS—SENIORS Tile R osa ALystica Players Under this beautiful title of Mary, the dramatic clubs of Saint Xaviers Academy have for two years been united. The remarkable achievements which have been accomplished throughout that time may be primarily attributed to Mary's guiding influence. Mindful of Our Holy Path er's suggestion that Catholic Action be stimulated in our daily contacts and associations, the Rosa Mystica Players pre- sented two religious dramas. 'Patricia”, which carried us back to the days of St. Ce- cilia; and The Algonquin Rose” which centered around Father Jogues. Both plays were enthusiastically received. The earnest pioneer efforts of the first members of .this group and the ultimate suc- cess they attained have been a constant source of inspiration to this year’s eager disciples of Dramatic Art. Apart from the example of our predecessors, any commendation which our various presentations of this year have merited has been due very distinctively to the able direction of our Teacher of Expression, Mrs. Henry J. Donovan. MRS. HENRY J. DONOVAN At the weekly meetings of the clubs, the great importance of poise, voice culture, and grace- ful actional expression has been repeatedly stressed. Every girl has received ample opportunities to improve herself in the art of public speaking. It is needless to say that the benefits received from such well-planned training have by far exceeded the proverbial hundredfold mark. The Senior Dramatic Club, although greatly saddened at the thought of disbanding, derives much consolation from the certainty that the pride and beauty of the much loved title, Rosa Mystica”, will continue to be made known and honored by each future group of dramatic students. Dorothy M. McElroy 93 | The Glee Cluh So necessary is a pleasing quality of voice that the students are not only rec- ommended but urged to enter either the Glee Club or the Dramatic Club. The Glee Club is always popular and gives evidence of progress by public presenta- tion during the year. The Christmas carollers added a joyous and heavenly note to the Christmas play. The unique Dramusical. Following Foster's Foot- steps’’, was a very pretty stage scene. The musical numbers gave evidence of excellent tonal quality and effects. Kathleen J.

The art club holds one of the most outstanding places in our extra- curricular program. Every day there is a class of young artists in the studio on the top floor of the old building. There are five or six girls at each lesson. Every girl takes one lesson a week and usually has a finished picture to bring home at the end of five or six lessons. How proud they are to be the possessors of a fin- ished canvas, which will soon be framed and hung up in some prominent place at home. This year the art club looks forward to the exhibition of its paintings. We know that the parents of the girls are proud of the ability each member is show- ing. and Alma Mater, too, graciously favors budding artists. Madeline C.

'35 The extra-curricular activi- ties of our school excited much interest this year, but one which was acclaimed and enjoyed by all was basketball. Why? Because of the inter- esting competition which ex isted between the Senior and Junior sextets’'. The so-called rivalry centered about a shield to be given to the winning team on play day in May. Every week the Senior. Junior and Sophomore bas- ketball teams had their prac- tice under the able supervision of Miss Rose Ratelli, our in spiring, ambitious and ever popular coach, who came to us in November. We send a sisterly adieu” to our Junior friendly op- ponents with the fond hope that they may win the shield of ’36. The Senior squad wish the flourishing Sophomore team the same joy and happiness which the Juniors of ’35 felt whenever they overwhelmed the Seniors by their timely, alert, and efficient team work. Regretfully, we bid Fare- well to our Alma Mater. Nev- er shall we forget the keen pleasure and incomparable joy we found in her portals, espe- cially in her beloved gym- nasium. MISS ROSE RATELLI The Typing Club is a new club formed this year by the members of the Senior and Junior non-commercial classes. This club meets twice a week, after school. There is no class credit derived from these classes, but the personal benefit is very great and most acceptable. The object of this new club is to help the girls in their future work. On the first Tuesday. Wednesday, and Thursday of each month the stu- dents at the Academy omit the regular routine of class work and devote the days to clubs. Each club has a presiding chairlady and a secretary and is conducted according to Parliamentary Procedure. The clubs are arranged in a definite order: first, a roll call, which is a sum- mary of the previous quarter’s work, to which each individual responds. Sec- ondly, assigned topics, which arc on outside information and are delivered be- fore the class by appointed members. Then tests are given pertaining to topics discussed. These clubs have been beneficial as well as enjoyable. It is with great interest that the pupils anticipate those days of relaxation and enjoyment. Each club is more interesting than the last.

Father ter-building. He began with the virtue of Honesty, and each succeeding week he has developed another virtue: thus, truthfulness, self-respect, self-control, charity, courteous regard for the feelings of others, and refinement of tastes have all been included in his discussions. These weekly messages are not only in- structive, but they are a diversion from the ordinary Religion lesson. With the approach of the Lenten season. Father turned aside from his usual path, and spoke of practices which would help us to keep this season in a holy manner. Vocation Week brought another interruption in his program, when he very carefully and exactly explained to us the two main vocations of life, and how we could go about discovering to which state we are called. After attending these Friday conferences, presided over by so capable a director, for three suc- cessive years, it is with a sigh of regret and almost envy, that we leave these longed-for messages to our successors! Six hundred inspired students heeded the invitation of Christ, and imme- diately after examinations the heavenly peace of Retreat descended into six hun- dred hearts. We were very fortunate in having our Retreat conducted by Rev- erend Father Scott. O. S. F. C. Father Scott's clear, earnest, friendly manner of speaking inspired us to look deeply into our souls, and to forget earthly things. During these three days of prayer and meditation we were brought very close to Almighty God, and were given fresh courage and zeal with which to face the trials of life. As a beautiful climax, the Retreat closed with the singing of High Mass by the Seniors. We leave Saint Xavier’s with a heart full of grati- tude for the privilege of retreats. Dillon has chosen a subject of great value to every high school student, cbarac- RlTA I. FoLLETT Corns apart ivith Me and rest uivhile Jeannette H. LaPorte 1051 Mother Catherine McAuley Alotlrer Al.cA.nley s Day Aroused to enthusiasm by the announcement of the presentation of the Cause of Mother McAuley to Our Holy Father, the students of each class im- mediately took action. Official plans provided for a picture of Mother McAuley in each of the fifteen home rooms and the daily recitation of the Memorare for her canonization. Original ideas found place in monthly programs: symposia, pupil lectures, verses, gleanings from the life of Mother McAuley. and a monthly column in the Xavierette. When Mother General returned from Rome with re- ports of her audience and a duly authorized prayer for the Foundress, hope ran high. May we ask our readers ta join us in fervent prayer that the beloved Foun- dress of the Sisters of Mercy may soon be invoked as Saint Catherine McAuley. M. Ruth Briston National Vocation AV eek National Vocation Week was observed this year from March eighteen to March twenty-five. A fitting program, arranged by the faculty of the school, did much to impress upon the students the importance of selecting the right vo- cation. An hour was set apart each day during which the vocations and the various avocations were discussed by both the pupils and the teachers. On March twenty-first we were highly honored by the visit of our beloved Right Reverend Bishop who bestowed upon us the Papal Blessing. As Monday, March twenty-five, was the feast of the Annunciation a special instruction was given in honor of the Blessed Virgin. The object of this short talk was to stress the obedience of Our Blessed Mother in answering her call in life, namely that of the Mother of God. The week was brought to a close by a very inspiring lecture given by our Spiritual Director. Reverend Gerald Dillon. Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament concluded the program. Madeline Marie Lynch uat r- 'THUS X4VIER-19 3 |106 Assemblies On September ten Saint Xavier’s opened its portals with an informal assem- bly. Sister Mary Hilda welcomed the girls and reminded them of the gratitude due to their parents for the privilege of a Catholic education. On the day following, the school year was officially opened by the celebra- tion of the Mass of the Holy Ghost by Reverend Father Dillon. Afterwards, Father Dillon addressed the girls with words of encouragement and counsel. Mercy Day being a free day, the feast was anticipated by general devotions and the placing of the traditional flower at the Blessed Virgin’s Shrine. The celebration was brought to a close by an appropriate talk on the Order of Mercy by Father Dillon. Fire Prevention Week was observed by a lecture on various means of elimi- nating spontaneous combustion in the home. This lecture was delivered by Captain Sullivan of Providence. October eleven brought forth the first dramatic presentation of the year. A play, given by the Seniors, entitled The Honor of the Class”, proved to be most enjoyable and served as a refreshing oasis from the daily routine. A greater appreciation of Shakespeare was the result of two splendid presen- tations by Doctor Paulding, a noted Shakespearean actor and authority, on Oc- tober twenty-nine and thirty. On the twenty-ninth Doctor Paulding gave a superb representation of Romeo and Juliet , and on the following day of Hamlet . Doctor Paulding’s great versatility was shown by his excellent in- terpretation of each individual character in both plays, and his marvelous rendi- tions will not soon be forgotten. November was made outstanding by the Junior Assembly, and a two-act comedy called A Thanksgiving Party”. This drama gave the Juniors a great opportunity to show their dramatic talents and all expectations were filled by their excellent performance. Saddened by the death of Sister Mary Elizabeth, a member of the Academy Staff, the girls filed to the auditorium on February eight to assist at High Mass of Requiem, celebrated by Reverend Father Dillon. On February four, the student body was favored by a visit from Reverend Father Deery, editor of the Providence Visitor. Father Deery spoke of the value of the Catholic Press as a factor in Catholic Action, and urged each girl to re- ceive the Visitor each week in her home. During February we were favored with a lecture by Reverend Father Ber- nard Hubbard, noted glacier priest”. The girls sat entranced while Father Hubbard unfolded the wonders of snow-covered Alaska, and made the lecture to— --- � 3 rnsn mvser no 1071 more attractive by illustrating it with moving-pictures. There was many a sigh of disappointment when the discourse came to an end. In February we were surprised by a visit from Reverend Stephen A. Leven, newly appointed Vice-Rector of the American College at Louvain. He has been pastor of the parish of Briston. Oklahoma, and promoter of Catholic Evi- dence Guild work in his diocese. Father Leven delivered a most interesting and touching speech, sprinkled liberally with amusing anecdotes about Oklahoma life. It was startling to discover how little the people of Oklahoma know of Catholicism and how great is the need for laborers in this vineyard. On March seven. Mrs. Theodosia Crosse paid a return visit to the Academy. Her lecture, entitled “The Attributes of Personality was both interesting and instructive. As a culmination of National Vocation Week, a conference was given on March twenty-second by Father Dillon, who called special attention to the value and privilege of a call to the religious life. The assembly came to a close by Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament. On Tuesday. April second, the Junior Dramatic Club made its initial ap- pearance of the year in “Patricia”, a religious drama. This presentation, spon- sored by the Marian Motherhood Assembly was an unqualified success, dra- matically and financially. On Thursday. April four, we enjoyed an illustrated lecture. “The Passion Play of Oberammergau”, by John J. Ward. Mr. Ward, who has made yearly visits to Oberammergau since 1921, was well qualified to talk on the subject of the Passion Play, and the trip through Europe with such an efficient and in- teresting guide awakened long. long thoughts. On April twenty-nine a return visit from Dr. Paulding. This time “The Rivals , by Sheridan, found us just as enthusiastic and appreciative. In May occur the Freshman Assembly.

My, what memorable and beautiful visions these days bring to mind! A group of neatly uniformed young ladies, kneeling at Our Lady’s recite in unison. The Act of Consecration, their voices blending harmoniously, as they sing softly. “Loved Mother”. We see them now passing Our Lady’s altar, one by one. and leaving as a token of their love and devotion, a heavenly, blushing rosebud. Other May and Mercy Days will appear and the memories of the past will linger like blessings to encourage and strengthen us as we face the trials of life. The athletic display of the year is held on play day. It is the closing of the basketball season at Saint Xavier’s Academy. On this day the enthusiastic spec- tators review the whole year’s work. Competitive games are played and races are held. A very beautiful trophy is presented the most successful team. A memorable day never to be forgotten by the entire assembly! One of the most colorful events of our school term is a health exhibition given by the classes of the Academy, under the direction of Mrs. Henry Dono- van. teacher of Physical Culture. This is the final result of the weekly gymnas- tics taken in the gymnasium and the daily drills practiced in class.
