This year the Seniors had the privilege of choosing the one thus honored, so Mary was hoping and praying that she would be the lucky one. She had always loved the Blessed Virgin dearly, and there had always been a secret longing way down in the bottom of her heart that maybe some day she would stand upon the little platform and place the crown of flowers upon the head of our Blessed Mother. Mary had high hopes all year, and now that the time had come, she felt that perhaps, after all, her longing desire would not be fulfilled. Finally the day came when the Seniors were to cast their votes. The room was all astir, murmurs were heard from every corner. Shortly after two o'clock the president called the class to order and asked for nominations. Name after name was calledg some declined, others acceptedg finally the girl sitting next to Mary, after looking at her for a long time, arose and said, I nominate Miss Mary West. I have hope at last, after waiting so long and almost giving up, that now I have a fair chance to Win, so ran Mary's thoughts. Mary went home that evening with her heart full of gratitude to the girl who had nominated her. She would know tomorrow who had won, and then-would it be she? The day shone bright and clear, Mary went to early Mass and to Holy Communion. Later in the morning the seniors went to the assembly room to hear the report on the votes, but, alas! poor Mary was doomed to dis- appointment, for she had not wong another girl had beaten her by two votes. After school she went into Church, and kneeling before the altar of the Blessed Virgin asked her help to bear her disappointment, for oh, it was almost more than she could bear. She was kneeling there, when the CContinued on Page 91, vioioitrioielioioioioiui xinioioinqii 3011 1 14 1011 ie is 2 10111202011 if

It was the lot of the brand new Freshie of dear old St. John's of '29 to strike the happy medium. On the third day of September, we first entered the portals of our beloved school. Yes, a trying day it proved for the Freshmen. Forbidding spectres of the great god, knowledge, stalked ahead of us in grim array. The future seemed anything but inviting. It did not take us long, however, to become acclimated to our new realm, and we fell to our work and play with a zest. To begin with, we have a much treasured faculty, and to them we owe most of our enthusiasm and love for our work. There is a Class Club for the humble Freshies. It is through this means, carried out as it is in strictly parliamentary fashion, that we selected our class motto, flower and colors. While the religious and mental features of our education are being so thoroughly tutored, the physical side is not neglected. Physical Culture classes are held twice a week, to which we all look forward more than eagerly. We made our debut, socially, at a Hallowe'en party that will live long in the memory of all those who participated in it. Here's to Hallowe'en! May we have more and more of them! Now that we have proclaimed our existence in the annals of our school, let us give three rousing cheers for dear old St. J ohn's. May its name and fame be broadcast o'er the land, and may we be with her until that happy day when we shall be privileged to call her Alma Mater. -Paul Grammer. nioitrioicriaioidliirioioiuitrioi 7201011
