numerous special events. This year a special requiem mass was celebrated in memory of Fr. Palmer in October. December brought us the visit of Bishop Schlatterback of South Africa who celebrated a Low Pontifical Moss in the auditorium, and January was remembered for the annual Solemn Moss in honor of St. Francis. This basic spiritual training prepares us for the day when we will leave St. Francis and will need a sound foun- dation upon which to build our lives. It enables us to put everything which we come in contact with into its proper place in regard to our eternal salva- tion. The Mission Academia here counts tax stamps, under Fr. Griffin ' s direction — one of its many activities. Fr. Griffin and the sacristans do the necessary and important work in the chapel.

-«« ?■ =.--4. :v-» »| Xi;- ffitlgU % Benediction closes ouf a full school day. DAYS OF DEVOTION Just as St. Francis de Sales realized that the spiritual side of man was of the utmost importance during our life here on earth, so we become aware of this fact during our stay at St. Francis. Not only ore the essential truths of our religion taught to us during our doily religion classes, but we all attend a weekly mass in our chapel. Frequent confessions are also encouraged and this sacrament is administered daily by the members of the faculty. Also daily Moss is celebrated in the Chapel. Dur- ing the months of May and October the school day is closed by Benediction in honor of Our Lady. In addition to these regular reli- gious activities we are honored by A group of Seniors at their weekly moss toke advantage of this opportunity.

The gym is transferred into a large chapel during the annual retreat. Fr. Gross delivers one of his conferences at last year ' s re- treat. RETREAT The annual retreat crowns the school year. Held during the solemn and sacred season of Holy Week, it gives us a chance to take a spiritual inventory of our lives. Frequent conferences held in the auditorium, spiritual reading, confessions, daily Mass and Communion climaxed by Benediction fill out the Retreat Schedule. The unique custom of reciting the Rosary in the halls during the Retreat is, like all other activities, done in silence so that we will be able to listen to the voice of God. This year our Retreat was given by the Rev. John Heckel, O.S.F.S., of St. Anthony ' s Church, Wilmington, Delaware. 28
