The next day Sister Charly was out of danger but Mother Bourgeoys Was stricken with a burning fever and acute pain. Twelve days she suffered and prepared for Eternlty. Mortification, obedience, E cheerful submission to Providence, ardent love of God, and ,souls-these, her l g life-long virtues shone out more brightly in her last moments than ever before. E 2 After eighty years of ceaseless toil and unbounded charity and kindness in 5 E the service of God, our dear Mother Bourgeoys closed her eyes to this world, to ' E E be opened by the celestial vision of her God, for Whom she worked, with Whom E 2 she worked, and Whom she loved. I am sure that, after reading the life of one 5 E so good, so holy, so virtuous and so admirable as our Venerable Mother one can- 2 E not resist, joining the voice with ours in the general prayer for her. s E Lord Jesus, deign our prayers to hear rg: E What Mary asks, canst Thou withhold?- E E That Mother Marguerite's name so dear E E One day with Thy saints may be enrolled.

Can we not answer the question by a single word, Honor , the keynote of character? The responsibility of sustaining the honor of a school rests upon the pupils themselves, and severest censure is due the betrayer of such a trust. But before the honor of the school can be upheld, there must be a preparatory step that relates individually to every girl--the honor owed to onels self, the pupil should be governed by certain principles of straight forwardness, truthfulness and an innate sense of refinement Which refuses to stoop to anything which savors in the slightest of the coarse. Attachment to these principles should be such that not even the ties of friendship could cause them to be forsaken. A woman thus honorable in herself must, as a consequence preserve this same attitude in her relations with her classmates. I Important as is the idea of honor to the pupil of High School days, there is even a greater responsibility resting on her after she has left school. It is the men and women who go forth from a school that make it growg it is their record in the world, their example that reflects honor or dishonor on their Alma Mater. Therefore it is a sacred duty of every student to cultivate the highest and best of mind and heart, while at school, and to go forth with a hrm determination never to do anything that could bring dishonor upon that school.
