New at Saint Mary ' s this year is the values program , initiated by the resident counselor, Linda Haas, and implemented by the Student -Staff Ad- visory Council. Each new emphasis centered around a different value, and each focus was accompanied by discussions and class or individual projects . As students showed their special talents, gifts, and insights, it was hoped they would learn something about where they stand on some of life ' s important hurdles. A good first year, and getting better! The values focus began witn a kick-off assembly, a film perhaps, and then successive weeks of talks and projects. Subjects ranged from spirituality and sexuality to de- cision-making and self-esteem. One of the most creative months was one in which a girl adopted an egg for a week to learn about the risks and responsibilities of parenthood and decision- making. As members of each class participated in the activities, spirit points were attributed to that class and at the end of the month, a values dinner was held, announcing the winner for that month as well as commending girls who did outstanding jobs during that month ' s emphasis. 48 KAcemoseops da ys Variety h teaming K-Days are different learning exper- iences for the students of S.M.A. Our first K-Day was researching the history of the Peoria Diocese and Catholic educa - tion. Throughout the day, we scraped for information and then studied for a quiz- down competition later on that day . from Parishes Zo Pizza Our second K-Day was learning not only for the students , but the staff as. well . In the morning, the students spent their time making their own lunches , centered around them for their group. The after- noon was spent doing things such as ma- crame ' , exercising, and even ice-skat- ing. All these activities were mind-ex- panding and fun besides! What is it that we ' re living for? Applause, Applause Nothing I know brings on the glow, like sweet applause. You ' re thinking you ' re through, that nobody cares then suddenly you hear it starting! And somehow you ' re in charge again, and it ' s a ball- Trumpets all sing, Life seems to swing, and you ' re the king of it all ' cause you ' ve had a taste of the sound that says love, Applause!

For the most part our imaginations were stimulated because this journey took place in an imaginery automobile, heading for a rela- tive ' s house. An exceptionally fine job was done by the performers, and a good time was had by all. 53 ZH8K8 MS MAWV WAVS ZO SHAKE Behind Zhe Scenes And fa Song Jn Staff 3or Students $udy Our Dorothy Congratulations Judy, and remember my love and prayers are with you all the days of your life -Me Me As An Audience . . .

But then, sometimes we don ' t. It offers us friends to meet with and provides us with a not-so-quiet-place to go crazy in. Dormitories are strange. They ' re fun (and funny!) But often boring. They ' re confining. But they allow us freedom of thought and an environment in which to tap that hidden, and sometimes feared, resource of the mind. Dorms are okay, I guess, because they ' re a part of my life. 60 PA ZKOftS Ma. de la Luz Adame Vega, Queretaro, Qro. , Mexico Linda Allen, Nauvoo, Illinois Ambassador Lock Company, Chicago, Illinois Arthur F.

From scene to scene, the audience accompanied Al- ice to a dance, croquet game, tea party, trial with a lot of enjoyable songs and dances mixed in for fun.

Nearly everyone got in- volved — building, painting, and setting up booths of all sizes and shapes. A lot of hammer- ing, a lot of painting, a little yelling, but mostly a lot of fun. The day of the Carnival was full of excitement. There was something for everyone: games for kids , raffles on a large and small scale, all kinds of games of chance, crafts and food items , and even a jail in which to land your best friend (or favorite (?) teacher!). A success by any standard, and our hats go off to those who organized and ran the event, and of course, to all those whose behind-the-scenes work helped to make the carnival fun to be at and proud to work for .
