The medals offered by the Cnderwood and Remington Typewriting Companies, have been the means of spurring the students on towards securing one of the coveted prizes. Cndcr the able tutelage of Rev. Brother Henry and Rev. Brother B. joseph the Seniors and juniors have garnered quite a number of these awards. The work of this year has increased the reputation of St. ,loseph's.

We glory in the fact that in the campaign, put on for securing advertisements and patrons of this Year Book, we topped the list with the amount of S531 to our credit. This amount, save S99 secured by our teacher, represents the good, hard, persistent work of each and every student of this class, but especially that of Elmer Masserang, who obtained the sum of 58206, thus giving him first place in the school in this campaign, Francis X. Kraft of the Senior class came next with S5178 to his credit. This is the reason for our pride. By ourselves alone we accomplished the feat of topping the list, and what's more of going over the quota tS400j assigned us by our teacher, an amount which, someone said would not be brought in by any class in the school. This may smack of the spirit of vainglory, we may be severely criticised for this, but we just can not keep from telling the world that we accomplished it and that in doing so we overcame a thousand and one obstacles. We have shown that one class could obtain the amount of 3400. Someone said it couldnlt be done. Our policy is that of Edgar Allan Guest, the poet of the breakfast table-g'1t can be done. It is this spirit of It can be done and the great lighting spirit of our class that enabled us to smash our way to first place in this campaign as well as in the Christian Brothers' Crusade. XYith the rest of the school we entered the retreat on Monday, April 10, and it goes without saying, that like the rest of our school mates, we went through the various exercises in a very serious way, realizing the immense amount of good to be derived from it. It was a fitting preparation for the Holy Season of Easter. Immediately on our return from the Easter vacation the LaSalle Baseball league commenced. We entered a team and to date have lost to Freshmen B by a score of 12 to 6, and won from the fourth year by a score of 17 to 12. We expect to be in the light right up to the time the last mlan is put out. The fourth quarterly examinations are in the ofling, our work of the Junior Year is fast drawing to a close, it has been a jolly year, but soon it will be a thing of the past and we will be standing on the threshold of our Senior Year, trying to peer into the future, 1922-1923, a-wondering what it holds in store for us. VVe are no longer the Jolly Juniorsi' we must put aside the things of child- hood and now assume the clothes of manhood. Ours is no light task. The under- graduates will look up to us for example and edifieation. VVe are the ones on whom the school depends when the question of leadership arises. We have done. Our 'junior Log is complete. We have done our work and are now ready to assume the obligations of Serious Seniors. Farewell kind friends, till we meet again next year, when we will have passed through the Fourth Year as Serious Seniors and stand ready to take our places in the business world or to continue our education in some college or university. Adieu, Adios! till another June. JAMES J. SPRINGER, '23. Page Forty-one
