Um qaculiy FATHER GEORGE ESTERGUARD Superintendent Religion FATHER CLAUDE, O.S.B Religion The Presentation Sisters are deeply interested in every phase of our school life. Since they have a special devotion to Mary, the Mother of God, this year was for them and their students a year of particular rejoicing. On November l, 1950, the dogma of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin was proclaimed. Mary's 'anticipated resurrec- tion' makes it clear that Nlary now enjoys a happi- ness which we all hope to attain. MOTHER MARY ALICIA 'K Wefemn... As we leave St. Mary we wish to express our gratitude 'to the Sisters for their efforts to implant within us a deep love for God, and an appreciation of the democratic ideals of our coun- try.
