A DISTINGUISHED GUEST This year we were honored with the presence of one of the foundresses of our school, Reverend Mother Marie Gustave Superior General of the Sisters of the Holy Names. lt was so wonderful to have tht opportunity at least to convey our thanks to Reverend Mother Gustave, for surely one cannot by mere utterance of the word thanks express the gratitude we feel It was in 1920 that Mother Gustave, to gether with a few nuns, started the little mission school of Str Jean Baptiste. How she must have worked in those early years with her little band of Sisters to set the ground work for our flourishing St. .lean's as we know it today! We were very proud to be able to meet in our classrooms this kind Mother General. Today we, as Seniors, know only too well that thanks to the unceasing work and effort on the part of her sixteen Servants of God , we are graduating. WELCOME! One of our sixteen Servants of God is Sister lsidore de Seville, our Principal Sister lsidore is not a stranger at St .lean's, having had a preview of our school as a member of the high school faculty thirteen years ago. To our regret, after her brief stay of one year, Sister was as- signed to organize a domestic science de- partment inthe college of the Sisters of the Holy Namesin Windsor, Ontario. and had to leave us. In 1952 Sister lsidore became the pro- vincial assistant directress of studies at Manitoba, and in connection with this work, visited sixteen different schools. Last September, when Sister returned to Duluth to serve in the capacity of Princi- pal and Superior, the people and former pupils rejoiced for they had learned in the past to love and appreciate her devotedness. Now, as our Graduation Day draws pre- ciously near, we wish to thank Sister lsidore de Seville, whom we have found to be a wise counselor and friend, for making our last year at St. Jean's the happy year it was. 3,1 MOTHER MARLE GUSTAN E Superior General xf 4-an SISTER ISIDORE de SEVILLE Our Principal
