A familiar picture, a Sister of Charity in one of the many schools staffed by her order. Exactly 100 years ago, in 1859, Mother Mary Xavier Mehegan, at the reguest of the Most Reverend James Roosevelt Bayley, founded the Sisters of Charity. Through these many years the Sisters have engaged in various types of charitable work, and today they are a true symbol of love, charity, and the Christian way of life. They serve in hospitals, orphanages, homes for the aged, homes for incurably ill patients, homes for working girls, grammar and high schools, The College of Saint Elizabeth, and four overseas missions for which only volunteers are габа ted. The Sisters of Charity prepare their students carefully for life by giving them high ideals and encouraging them to make the most ‘of each opportunity for success. In their training they inculcate knowledge of both God and the world which He created. Those pupils who do not grasp the work as quickly as the others receive special attention from Sister who is always ready to help, to encourage, and to console. The Community has members serving in New Jersey, New York, Connecti- cut, Massachusetts, Florida, the Virgin Islands, and in Puerto Rico. The foreign missions included, until recently, China. Today, the Sisters of Charity continue to serve God and man. They ask few favors yet bestow them constantly and abundantly to all those in need. Truly, the Sisters of Charity have lived up to their name and have become an organization in which God and His teachings exist fully and endlessly. DEUS ET CARITAS DEDICATION With esteem, we of the Class of “59” admiration and overwhelming make this humble highest dedication to an everlasting symbol of charity, goodness, and righteousness, Sister Anne Magda- lene. Her superiority and unsurpassed ability in teach- ing us through these unforgettable and most pre- cious years will leave a permanent mark upon both our hearts and our characters. Her help was gladly given, her advice was wisely given, and she was to us a gift, God given. She was a Sister to all of us in the true meaning of the word. As long as we of the Class of 59 shall live upon this earth, we will always carry her imprint, her memory, and the principles which she set forth in her teaching. We are her products, and we are following in her footsteps; no greater honor could be bestowed upon us. She dedicated herself to us, and we, with tears in our eyes and sorrow in our hearts, say good-bye, and with gratitude and love, we the Class of “59 dedicate this yearbook to our Senior Moderator. Sister Anne Magdalene. APPRECIATION To Sister Elaine Marie An appreciation which stems from the very depths of our hearts we, the Senior Class of “59”, extend to Sister Elaine Marie, our Principal. Her guidance and understanding during our four years at Saint James High School have helped us exceedingly to become better Chris- tian men and women. She is a living tribute to her vocation and her order. May God give her the strength and guidance to continue to bestow upon others, the magnifi- cent, and heart-warming gift that she bestowed upon us, To Our Parents To our parents there really exist no words which can express our thanks. For all they have done for us is innumerable and incomprehensible. They sacrificed and put all the facilities which God gave them to help us obtain an above average and complete education. For this only God can reward. We, mere humans, being limited in expressing such supreme gratitude, can only say simply and deeply, thanks and may God bless and keep you. S vw Z. uv.

CLASS HISTORY When Juniors we became, we were stunned As Freshmen we were filled with wonders and joys, Yet we were still little children playing with toys. The four years we were to spend looked like an eternity, And we wondered when we would ever Seniors be. When Sophomores we became; happy and thrilled to be so, We were getting a little older, but we really didn't know, Still carefree and laughing all the time, But we began to realize our future was in studying and not in nursery rhymes. and astonished, Not believing that two vears we had accom- plished. ] ] The vear was hard and long and books be- me a must n now became “Senior or bust As Seniors we didn’t know what to say, We seemed always in a lizzy way But our Senior year was the best, with a melancholy ait And forever will our memories linger there ча NY Ba E “Love one another with fraternal charity. anticipating one another with honor.” (Romans 12, 9-19) UNDERCLASSMEN JUNIORS Discussing their coming dance are Dolores Czarnik, Carol Broderick, Miss Burke, Dolores Dangelit, and Assunta Giordano.
