'Tabs Tl . ?.v 1 Uffnfff ' Nearly four score years have passed since old St. Hary's threw open her doors to the youth of Detroit. To this day, she is carrying out a system of education complete in all its phases. Upon completion of the business course, not only does the young business girl face our fast-moving twentieth century manned with a technical training which enables her to draw from the material world a livelihood, but she has something to offer from the standpoint of cultural and moral training--as much a part of her happy, long-to-be-remembered days at old St. Mary's as the A B C' are to the first grader. lhry, the mi and the mother of guiding influence of Mary as she is arms outstretched trcss of all science, the mother of spiritualit intellectuality has nurtured her and has been h Indelibly on each mind is imprinted the image so beautifully represented above the altar with to receive her children.

Within the folds of this book are memories to be cherished by all of us who are about to start in the cultural school of business life, possessing that same strange feeling we felt on the first day of school- unawarc of the problems and principles enveloped in our future training. Se far as education ia concerned, we have reached our seemingly endless goal, but new we have before us a goal which seems just as endless-success-of which accuracy, efficiency, dependability, appearance, and promptncss are the password. Nestled in a corner of Old Qv4.g,,,4 mls' , 1 St. Mary's Church is a haven of N 9 V' P' peace to which a tired and N , vi- uu5w troubled soul may always fly. 'Ll ' l.'QgEl1 2 There, in the Grotto of Our Lady 9'-6 , , Q l of Lourdes, stands Bernadettefs fy . A Beautiful Lady, ' ?

What more beautiful thought can we have than to take Maryls hand, like a trusting child, and S0 with her to God' SODALITY ACTIVITIES X, If for no other reason, X this vear's-Sodalitv pro ran ' may be judged a success He- 2 f1W cause of the active interest 1 XX taken it by all the soda- J 5 ll I, lists.

Fic greater success r ' I ij J' could he desired! l H!! .I al Since the fate of the ' , I I Sodalitv rests almost com- Ji I pletely in the hands of the M Q officers, our first act was , to elect those whom we ' ' I thought capable of fulfil- ' , K K ' ling our expectations. Ann I f Arlene Schuck was appointed f J 1 Prefectg Rose Marie Barbagila, Xxflf Vice-Prefectg Betty Schenk, Rx' D Secretary, and Kathryn Fennely, ZQW c Treasurer. I' ' - 1 ' Then came Bazaar time. For seks the students rushed around chattering about the dolls they were dressing for the occasion. These shining examplcs of their handicraft were so cleverly outfitted that it is difficult to sav which were the more pleased, the rirls who won the prizes, or the lucky little girls who won the dolls. In spite of the slight chan e President Roosevelt made in the date of Thanksgiving, we saw to it that those less fortunate than we would have something good to eat. Everyone enjoyed her dinner more hecause she knew that her contribution to the Thanksgiving baskets gave someone else somcthiny for which to he grateful. On the feast of the Immpculate Conception, Decenhor i, the new sodalists were formallv received into the Sodalitv. After the recep- tion in the afternoon, there was an spnetizing supper and an amusing entertainment for all to cnjev. In the evenin , we were privile ed to assist in the solemn closinr of the Fortv Hours' Devotion, by tahinr part in the procession in honor of our Eucharistic hind, At Christmas time we all had a grand time making the children in the mission school happy by our annual Christmas party. It is truly more blessed to give than to receive--and a million times more fun! In January, Father Thiefels visited us, and showed us his col- lection of pictures of the Madonna. He gave us a most interestinf lecture on this subject. we now appreciate Art a little more intel- ligently. With February came our first real disapnointment of the year, for Father Zoeger was transferred to the Holy Ghost Seminary. He made his farewell speech at the closing of the Hovena to Our Lady of Lourdes. There were tears in the eyes of many at the thought of losing a dear friend and counselor. However, our tears were dried when we saw our new pastor, Father Knaebel. He is doing an admirable job of fillinq the posi- tion left by his predecessor. The theme of our retreat this year was the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, which Father Knaebel very beautifully correlated with the seven last words of Christ on the cross. It was closed by a re- newal of our baptismal vows at Sass on March third,fol1owed by a delicious breakfast. On Palm Sundav, we marched in the annual procession. Cn Holv Thursday we all assembled before the beautifully decorated repos- itory for our hour of prayer before the Blessed Sacrament. This vear'we decided to have the Hother's party after Lent, in the hope of warmer weather. It rained, bvt the day was not lost--a few prayers to lar? for better weather stopped the downpour. A lerie crowd of mothers rttcnded and the part? was a tremendous success. Hay, the month of tary, was a month of devotion to her. Each noon before lunch, the students assembled before the shrine erected in the typing room to invoke her protection and sing her praises. As the concluding act in our devotions, we crowned her our Queen. After the Noon-day Lass we marched through the church sinring hymns to Mary, climaxing this bv the crowning of Har? with a wreath of flowers. So endeth the year. Can you blame us for being proud of our new nearness to Mary and her Divine Son? Uur sincere hope is that we may always grow ever closer to then, and never forget the many things we learned this year. ymnnm mn rl eu.n5y,,N r H-,Lt Rini? 2: 4? ilk, .wa -w-L lf.

A '-3 ! .pm m HONOR, NOT HONORS, IS OUR GOAL We are working not just for today, or even tomorrow, but for our entire lives. Honors are such hollow things, they last but a moment, and are soon forgotten. The crowds who shouted, nHosanna!u to Christ on Palm Sunday were the same ones who shouted, nCrucify Him,n on Good Fridav. Sic transit Gloria Mundi . . . Trembling at the threshold of a new life, we feel dubious and somewhat panicky at the thought of the difficulties that are sure to come. How guiltless our conscience will he, if, at the end of our life in the business world, we may know that our QONOR has not been tarnished, but instead, has Ween held high above the temptations which accosted us! Honors are those words of praise and acknowledgment of achieve- ment that mortal men bestow on those of their fellow men who have distinguished themselves in a certain field. Still, praise and flattery are only deccivers. Our aim should be greater than to entertain our pride with such conceit. And honors have such little worth! Tomorrow those revolutionary discoveries, those wonderful feats of courage, will all be forgotten--huried in an avalanche of superior achievements. And yet men strive for honors! On the other hand, HCHOR is the basis of all true character. It is our only claim to enduring fame, our one chance to make our name one that our descendents will remember and point to with pride. HONOR is a quality that is as attainable for the poor and illiterate, as it is for the wealthy and intelligent. It is within us, and remains there as long as we prize it above all mere monetary gains. It makes us fit companions for kings--and saints. HONOR is truly a virtue to strive for, and once obtained, to count all the trials and difficulties well worth the effort. Above all, if we attain this height, we should always cherish it as the precious treasure it is. Mary, the nldeal Homsn,n should he our model in our struggle for perfection. To her should be given an invitation to accompany us into the business world. he should hey her to ask her Divine Son to keep us beneath His Cloak of Purity. If Je do this, we shall never have to be troubled about the loss of our HONOR, and the HONORS will take care of themselves. X 4+ if F' V41-,.

With enthusiasm, forty-four girls received the announcement of another drama in which they were to star. This one was entitled nJuniors of St. Mary's.n Our first two weeks were filled with experiments and prebl ms, such as- lunvtofind room in vour locker for all the paraphernalia you think is necessary to bring, and how to ascend and descend three flights of slippery stairs gracefully, The first feature of our new career that flashed on the screen was the First Friday Communion in October. lith all the magnificence and splendor of an army, we marched in our school regalia to the communion rail to receive Christ, The days progressed rapidly into weeks and all were happily engrossed in the mysteries of Bookkeeping and Typing. At this time we eagerly decided to elect the class officers, The ones chosen to lead the group were Annette Goeddeke, Presidentg Betty Kurz, Vice-Presidentg Geneva Thomas, Secretary: and Rosemary Wiemeyer, Treasurer. Then our peace was suddenly shattered by a menacing sign posted on our bulletin, Yes, you've guessed it. The Initiation! On the unfortunate day, we climbed unfamiliar stairs to the accompaniment of screams and groans, While we were experiencing hair-splitting maneuvers, the Seniors laughed at our ridiculous costume of childhood days, Our minds wandered and we pictured ourselves as Seniors when we would have our fun at the cost of the Jl2l'1iOl'Sg A senerita, a bride, a baby, even Snow White and many other distinguished characters marched across the stage for inspection and right on to the Doll Booth and into the hearts of the patronizers of St, Mary's annual bazaar. Again a reel was flashed on a screen but this time it was a Urcal movie.u The humorous and jovial Father Murphy, foreign missionary' was the director. The Senior room proved to be some theater while we previewed the wilds of distant Africa and the work of the Catholic m.ssionaries, Then came the gala celebration of the year, Father Hoeger's Silver Jubilee. The entire student body sang the Mass and later participated in a little program given in honor of the Jubilarian. we were graciously visited by His Excellency Bishop Byrnes of Africa, who had come to Detroit for a short stay, 12.1 , f- '15' A. , 'fimct ,ff-wet iga 452.4 3'iw,!f'f '-' 1'i2'!'?

And then the familiar Mister Turkey took the spotlight as the Thanksgiving season rolled around. With charitable and enthusiastic hearts, we collected enough food to fill several baskets for the needy of Old St. Mary's parish. Our award was had in the satisfaction that we were able to bring happiness into the hearts of the unfortunate. During the Forty Hours of Devotion, which lasted from December 6 to 8, a solemn air reigned over the school. This devotion and the Novena to the Immaculate Conception ended on December 8, when all the commercial students participated in a triumphant procession of the Blessed Sacrament. We were then assigned to play the favorite character of the year, good old nSaint Hick.u With our little gifts wrapped in gay paper, we went up to the auditorium for the Christmas party. The smiling faces of the little children and their happy greet- ings were their gifts to us in return. Old Father Time flew swiftly by and only the exams--as if that was not enough--took place in January. In February, we received the hearts of the Post Graduates in the form of invi- tations. On the tenth everyone enjoyed a pleasant time at the Valentine Party. The annual retreat approached rather suddenly after the previous affair. The nOur Fatheru and the nHail Maryu took on a new meaning as our Retreat Master, Father Hoeger, explained them. On Sunday morning, the feast of St. Joseph, we ended the retreat with Mass, a general Communion and the renewal of our Baptismal vows. The traditional Mothers' Day party was held on April 18. On this day, our Mothers had their first glimpse of our nWerkshop.n After being introduced to our teachers, they enjoyed a pleasant afternoon, playing bingo and cards. Swish! Swish! could be heard on the second floor of the school as we prepared for the May Crowning with attendants primping up in their formals and the prefect in her white gown and filmy veil. A very edifying ceremony took place in Church as a crown of blossoms was placed on the head of Our Blessed Mother by the prefect. All the students took part and offered a rose to the Queen of Heaven as we passed her throne. June and Graduation are rather synonymous. With Class Day, we bade farewell to the Graduates of 1959. During the year, several girls already discontinued the course of study. They were Betty Schoenmakers, Lorraine lkir, Geneva Thomas, and Gloria Springer. So now we had only 38 prospective seniors for 1940. Class Day, however, did not end the year, no, we still would be united at the Bob-lo excursion which took place the day after Graduation. After a pleasant day, we said goodbye until we would meet again in September. September 7, the first day of school, 59 new Seniors exchanged greetings with their associates. we were minus a few of our original class of Juniors, but we were happy to welcome a new member into our midst, Margaret DeBruyne, who had just returned from a visit to Belgi m.

Within a week's time we had elected our class officersg Annette Goeddeke, Presidentg Jeanne Campbell, Vice-Presidentg Dorothy Kaczmarek, Secretaryg and Rosemary Wiemeyer, Treasurer. The first duty of the officers was to prepare for the Juniors' initiation. It was to be a nHard Timesn party and with the cooperation of all the members of the class we made it a great success. Even if the President did change the date on which Thanks- giving was to be celebrated, we were ready to do our share for the needy of Old St. Mary's parish. During the Christmas season, when everybody is shopping for gifts for Mary and Sue, we found time to take part in two processions. First, the Forty Hours' Devotion ceremonies, and then we took part in the Midnight Hass on Christmas Eve. Both of the ceremonies were very edifying and brought a little peace to this war-torn world And then an unexpected event took place that brought tears to our eyes and ulumpsn in our threats. After ten years as Pastor of St. Mary's Church, Father Hoeger left us to become Rector of Holy Ghost M,ssionary College located at Cornwells Heights, Pennsylvania. He gave his farewell address to the parishioners on February ll, the ending of the Immaculate Conception Novena. But on the following day, he came personally to bid farewell to the students of the mission and of the commercial school, We welcomed Reverend Father Edward J. Knaebel, the new pastor of St. Mary's, during the annual retreat. The former National Director of the Holy Childhood Association is a sehoolman by calling, and will, no doubt, make still more useful to the city the splendid Commercial School, developed under Father Hoeger and the School Sisters of Notre Dame. His little talks during the retreat were centered around the lkss and its relation to the greet drama that took place on Calvary. Instead of the nend of a perfect dayn we had the end of a perfect retreat by receiving Holy Communion after which we all had a fine breakfast served to us in the dining room. we were so engrossed in developing speed in shorthand that we didn't notice that the end of March was already here and we still had Old Man Winter at our heels. April came and with the belated Spring weather we were apt to have a little nspring fever.n The month of May was ushered in by our annual Mothers' Day party. Although the weather was not perfect the party was one of the most successful ones held in several years. Our Mothers again had a little noonferencen with our teachers and after that enjoyed an afternoon of cards and bunco. Father Time flew swiftly by and before we realized it, the last and busiest week of school was ahead of us. We were J ,ml -yi .r v ' 4 2-.f:'. LP: 4 T Wk. wp' .. 1 .ii .gy-Q-N , 'na -X .

After a very delicious luncheon, we, the Seniors, bequeathed to the Juniors various bits of our property. Several speeches were given by members of the three classes and after that we went home to prepare for the festive occasion that was to take place the next day. The Alu nae heartily welcomed us into their midst with the banquet given at the Whittier Hotel in our honor. Then the day of days! June 93 Graduation! Fare- wells and promises to write and visit each other filled the air when we assembled for the last time on the morning of June 9. Our Graduation Mass was at 9:00, and in the evening we had our commencement exercises. It was a very beautiful and edifying ceremony as the Graduates, in their caps and gowns, solemnly walked up to the statue of Our Blessed Mother and there dedicated themselves to her for the rest of their lives. And then the final ceremony took place--the distribution of diplomas. Even though we had graduated on Sunday it made no difference for on Tuesday, June ll, we were told to have a good time as school children when we boarded the boat for Bob-lo for the second time to spend an enjoyable day at the island. Soon we will be assigned the leading character in the drama of our own lives. With hard work and an ambition to succeed we will be as successful in this role as we have been in the role of students of St. Lhry's. And when the final curtain is rung down on our lives in this world, may we enjoy an eternal stay in heaven. I Y 5 ,Q I I ,, A ? 5 P' I . f , .-1111 mel' 5 4 I.

I will not tell the dull details of my life before my adven- tures began several months ago. At that time I was assigned a mis- tress and had some marks put on me. I was very curious to know how my new mistress would look. I did not have long to wait before I actually saw her. What a disappointment! She looked pale and frightened and I thought at the time that I could never like a girl who behaved so queerly. Since that day, however, I have learned that it is quite the usual thing for students to act that way when they receive their cards. My mistress glanced at me, breathed a very audible sigh of re lief, regained a little of her natural coloring, and then, before I knew what was happening, I was slipped into a book. That night I was presented to my mistress' mother and father to be inspected and signed by them, I received many compliments from the se charming people, which pleased my mistress and me very much. Next day I was returned to my old friends, who, judging from the stories they told, had had some interesting experiences of their own. Since that time I have gone through similar adventures at various intervals. At times I have been nswell,n at other times I have been njust fair,u and once--once I was usimply terribleln But, all in all, I have been uprety good,n or so I have heard my mistress remark. Today I, together with many other old-timers, lay in a dark drawerg sometimes we exchange stories of our experiences but, usually, we just rest, for our active life is over. Occasionally, my mistress resurrects us and smiles wistfully as she recalls the ugood old days,n when her greatest worries were about the grades she was getting on her report cards. I can hardly believe that she is the same girl who once wished that she were through with school and no longer had to worry about a nlittle old report card.n Thus, you can see, I have lived a rather interesting life, and you will understand why I am happy to spend the remaining years of my life in quiet reminiscence. at-W W tl' ,.

It was t5e smiling face of Margie Hemnen, house keeper in the place, by gosh! Harrie ushered me into the parlor, and we started to gossip. As usual, she knew all about who was doing what. It seemed that Kart Ellen Burk and Rose Hario Barbaglia, heartbroken because of Annette Goeddeke's marriage to Rhitev, the cop, had gone off on a tour of Timbucktoo, where they hoped to meet Iarjaret Beattie who had married a traveling salesman. 1 y Ii 19 F 'Will 4 f A will fl , 0 1 Marie Schoenherr and Margaret Tolfbauer were on a roller-skating tour around the world, with Rosemary Reck as publicity manager.

Only when the door closed behind me, and I was standing on the sidewalk, did I realize that I had not sold any apples. Oh well, I had oauyht up on my gossip anyhow. The street was crowded, and I threaded nv way carefully through the knots of people hurrying to and fro. A telephone pole sprang up from nowhere and rapped me sharply on the nose. I stopped abr ntl? to reconnoiter and found myself being pushed into a crowd of women, standing on the sidewalk listening to a learned member of their fair sex denouncing the evils of the nhossless carriaQe.n I craned my neck to see who this powerful speaker was, and there, perched precariouslv on a tiny soap box, was Elizabeth De Wolf.

I always said her love for public speaking would carry her far. A hat poked under my very nose brought me out of my reverie. I looked up to see Jeanne Campbell, Liz's right-hand man, busily passing the hat and keeping a 'weather-eye out for wooden nickels. With a minimum of elbow poking and pushing, I managed to struggle clear and gain the open sidewalk once more.

The girls invited me to be seated and listen to one of their favorite programs that was about to begin.l I gladly did so, and was soon listening to the soothing voices of Mildred Bolle and Virginia Faber, who conducted the NAdvice to the Lovelornn program every Monday, Wednesday, or other week day when the microphone was left unguarded.

It has been one of preparation for the future--a Xwhf preparation that will prove a wonderful asset in finding our XX f, 'X laces in this great world. ml ! For most of us, the period of scholastic learning has ended. We stand on the threshold of a life new to us--the life of the business world. Only now, as we are about to step out into the confusion of life, do we realize how much we have depended upon our parents and teachers, how seldom we stood on our own feet, how important are those friend- ships which we never considered before, and how happv were those school days. The beautifwd friendships we have formed here in school will be but memories. Our paths will separate, perhaps never to cross again, but though our individual aims be as varied as the tributaries of a mighty river, our mutual faith and devotion to Mary shall be the binding links which unite our hearts. And when our work seems hard, when our troubles seem great, and sorrow overcomes us, may we receive new strength and new courage fro the memory of those happy days at old St. Mary's. '15 v- 4 .
