Hannigan '60 Under the capable direction of Sister de Lourdes, we learn the funda- mentals and technique of mastering Plane Geometry. Although progress is slow at times and the problems are unusually hard to understand, We thoroughly enjoy our study of this subject and feel that it can and will be put to practical use in later life.

Thanks to good chemists we enjoy better clothing, good foods, modern household conveniences, luxurious automobiles and many other items.

COMMERCIAL STUDENTS LOOK TOWARD TOMORROW To be a very good secretary one must have speed and accuracy in typ- ing and shorthand. Much concentration and thinking is needed for these Commercial Studies including bookkeeping. SJ A offers all these courses not only to develop good citizens, but also experienced secretaries. One does not realize it now, but by taking these subjects it will be appreciated in life later on. America is the land of the free. There are many opportunities and vocations to chose, but the life of a secretary outrates many. One has to be alert and stay awake at all times. We are pleased and thankful to have experienced teachers, Sister Margaret Mary and Alice Ryan, to complete our further knowledge in these Commercial Studies.
