Our rocket completed, tbe day finally dawned, To tour tbe great worlds and planets beyond, Tbe parts were assembled eacb one in its place, We now were prepared to blast of into space. Although at graduation our rocket has reached its destina- tion, for a few chosen members of our explorer's team, a new wonderful world is opening. Saint Joseph smiles lovingly over our campus through summer, fall, winter, and spring. This same campus which has been the scene of their four fun-packed years, today, witnesses the return of Barbara, Mickey, and Ann to sing once more our beloved Blue and Gold . Today, however, they stand as postulants of the Sisters of Saint Joseph. The Father of Jesus, under whose guidance they have flourished and grown into true Saint Mary's girls, smiles even more lovingly on them now. He is justly proud and happy that three of our graduates have chosen the path to the utmost in earthly happinessg namely, that of giving themselves entirely to Him as Sisters of Saint Joseph.
