This gift enabled them to go out and teach the gospel of Christ to the entire world, for they were understood by everyone who heard them, each ln his native tongue. The miraculous gift of tongues ls not given to us as it was to the Apostles. Yet the knowledge of languages can help us to understand the customs and culture of other lands, an understand- ing which forms a step toward international good will. The four years of Latin in our language program provide a knowledge of ancient culture, make us more appreciative of the liturgy of our Church, and furnish a basis for the study of modern languages. In addition, a knowledge of Latin is an invaluable aid in enlarging one's English vocabulary. The two-year French course furnishes students with the means to read, understand, and speak a modern language. Also, the study of the customs and history of France and the singing French songs help to promote an appreciation of the culture and civilization of our neighbors across the sea -22- FX Q ' tp!

May Crowning is but one of the activities of that most important phase of our lives, the practice of our religion. As religion cannot be separated from life, it cannot be separated from our education. Each year begins with a Mass to ask God's blessing on our work. From time to time we lift our voices in hymns of praise or in the re- sounding melodies of the liturgy as the entire student body sings the MaBle In May takes place the annual three-day retreat, when we get an opportunity to take spiritual inventory, to bring to mind the real reason for our existence, and to think seriously of what we intend to do with our lives. And always, apart from the activities in which we engage together are those precious moments when each student finds time to psy s private visit to the Blessed Sacrament or to say Our Lady's rosary before her altars But our religion m st be put into practice too. It is for this reason that we hold such activities as the Catholic Book Fair, to en- courage others to read good literature, and pay visits to St. Paul's Orphanage, to spread the happiness of Christ to His little ones. Thus our religion is a vital part of our lives, one contributing to Gcd's glory, our own happiness, and the happiness of others. --60-- ,o.,,.,..,,.,.J:..

Since the aim of education is to prepare for complete living, activities cannot be overlooked. Certainly, 'All work and no play' is not the case at Saint Joseph High School. After many hours of school work, everyone enjoys going to a school dance and meeting his friends in a different atmosphere from that of the classroom. The social program follows the seasons. In fall there is the Halloween Dance, where ghosts and goblins reign, but where laughter and merriment rule right along with them. Winter brings dancing snowflakes but also the sound of dancing feet as students of St. Joseph's enjoy the Pre-Advent dance and the Red and Blue Dance, inaugurating the basketball season. Highlight of the winter season is the Christmas Formal where against a background of Christmas trees and holly wreaths students dance to the strains of Bill Sta1ey's music. February brings the Valentine Dance as the last pre-Lenten affair. In the spring, a young girl's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of the 8. and S. and J. and S. Both events, held in May as final tributes to the seniors by underclassmen, bring the year to a happy end and climax a series of fun filled hours spent during four years at St. Joseph's. -62..
