The end of our unforgettable year draws nigh. We have encountered storms and adverse windsg and dreary days alternated with bright ones.

ELEANOR MCNAMEE MARGARET GALLAGHER ANNA MCGONNELL MlllElIMlllDlIRMlIE5ef ' As we sit in our cozy rooms at home, And memories come trooping by, We will fondly dwell on our old school days- Those spent at Saint Joseph's High. No matter where our homes may be In North, South, East or West, When night creeps through the twilight's gleam- Our thoughts on Saint Joseph's will rest. The class may spread throughout the world, Each beneath a different sky, But deep in their thoughts are memories sweet Of the days at Saint Joseph's High. JAMES O,CONNELL Twenty-nine
