The Aquinas Academy of St. Michael's College is made up of students who are preparing for the priest- hood. The 'course covers two years and is so arranged to take in the Philosophy which formerly was studied at the Seminary, and is preparatory for the study of Theology. The students also are enrolled in some sub- jects of the Arts course in the College, and have the stand- ing of Divinity students in the University of Toronto. This allows theni to attend not only the various lectures, etc., in the College, but' also to participate in the various University activities and sports as well. Besides up- holding the high scholastic traditions of previous classes, the Aquinas course have also taken their part in extra-mural activities.

Through- out his double ,term of office, Rev. Father Roach, by his wise direction and kind teaching had been fitting a group of scholastics for the high calling of the priest- hood. September found him with his work well done, and the ordination at Christmas of five young men, bore a glowing tribute to his zeal. In accordance with the constitution of the congregation it was found necessary to appoint a new Superior, and, fortunately for us, the choice fell on ,Rev. Father Carr, former Superior of St. Michael's College. The staff was enlarged more- over, by the appointment of Rev. Father W. H. Murray as assistant to Father Carr, and of Rev. Father V. I. Murphy as Treasurer. The places left vacant by the departure of ,Rev. Fathers P. I. Bart, VV. 0'Toole, V. I. Burke, W. J. Garvey, E. UC. Lebel, R. E. Lowery, A. D. O'Brien and T. I. Vahey and Messrs. W. J. Dore, VV. I. Dwyer and G. V. Sharpe, were filled by the advent of Messrs. H. C. Coughlin, A. I. Denomy, T. I. Dolan, j. B. Flanagan, F. J. Lajeunesse, S. M. Lynch, Jos. McGahey, XV. I. Murphy, VV. F. Nigh and Jos. L. O'Donnell. These new arrivals were welcomed by the old-timers, Messrs. Chas. Kelly, J. P. Mallon, S. A. Perdue, B. 0'Donnell, F. S. Ruth, and G. H. VVilbur, and all prepared for the work of the coming year. The motto, I'Bonitatem, Disciplinam et Scientiam Doce Me frttingly describes the nature of our training A strict rule and the privilege of many spiritual exercises afford us ,great assistance in our strivings for perfection. A thorough course embracing Dogmatic and Moral Theology, Canon Law, Church History, Scripture, Liturgy, Plain Chant and Predication under the in- struction of Rev. Fathers H. Carr, R. McBrady, F. Forster, VV. Murray, L. F.. Rush and Prof. Greaves, fit us for the duties of sacerdotal life. Besides this, ten of us are attending the Ontario College of Education and the rest are doing work in the different depart- ments of the University, in order to equip ourselves for the work peculiar to our community, namely, the in- struction and training of Catholic youth. All in all our life is truly a busy but a happy one.
