FRANCES LAPP JUNIOR SODALITY 0 F F I c E R s FRANCES LAPP ................................. President LAVONNE HAYES .......................... VicerP'resident MADELYN CURTIss ............................. Secretary HELEN AYLWARD ............................. Treasurer llDonlt be so stingy with the candy! Wait till the chil' dren see these dolls! Ummm! Are these apples good! What a darling dress! were some of the comments heard as the Junior Sodality packed baskets for the poor at Christmas time. And these expectations of giving cheer were fulfilled when they saw how much happiness the baskets brought to the needy. Regular attendance has been shown at all meetings of the Sodality. Talks have been given and to stimulate interest in certain books, scenes from them have been dramatized. Sister Claudia has been very patient amidst the stampede of eager readers who have witnessed these dramatizations. When studies have had to be learned there has seldom been time, but somehow posters for the Sodality bulletin board have always been eagerly furnished. The Little OEce 0f the Blessed Virgin has been faithfully recited every Friday morning with perfect attendance. Durl ing May frequent devotions have been held at the Grotto, and Maryls altars have been decked with beautiful flowers in her honor. All these efforts and successes have been accomplished under the watchful eye of our Blessed Mother, the patroness of the Sodality. Under the protection of her mantle the Sodalists have chosen to walk through life, and it is to her that they will always look for guidance and counsel. L. HAYES M. CURTISS DOROTHY CANTERBURY, l36.

CATHERINE OWBOYLE OYEZ For about a year Oyez has been to us a guidance in our spiritual life. Its pup pose is liturgical and its numerous articles contain discussions on every phase of the liturgy. By means of this mimeographed paper a fuller appreciation of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is given to its readers. Through its columns we learn more of the meaning behind the Church liturgy and ceremonies. How many really come prehend the true meaning of the Mass of the Catechumens or the Mass of the Faithful? This has all been explained in Oyez. We have also learned why we should partake of the Banquet prepared for usethat is, why we should receive Holy Communion when we attend Mass, what we should do during the holy season of Lent, the true beauty of the lives of Gods holy men and women, the saints, and many other fundamental things that we as Catholics ought to know. The little organ serves as an indispensable help toward the success of the various committees of the Sodality, for in its sheets they may publish any ideas they desire to convey to their fellowstudents. It is through the capable leadership of the editorrinrchief, Catherine OiBoyle, and the generous contributions of students that Oyez puts in its appearance every two weeks of the school year. All of the articles are noteworthy in their simplicity of style and in their sincere endeavor. Like Punchinello of old, Oyez, which means Hear Ye, cries out to be heard. And its many readers will, with one accord, bear witness to the fact that it is well worth the reading. MARGARET ANDERSON, 32. SCHOLASTICAN 1931

Then to the wellrtvod stage anon, If Ionsonls learned sock be on, Or sweetest Shakespeare, Fancyhs child, Wavble his native woodmotes wild. And ever, against eating cares, Lap me in soft Lydian airs, Married to immortal verse, Such as the meeting soul may pierce, In notes with many a winding bout Of linked sweetness long drawn out, With wanton heed and giddy cunning, The melting voiog through mazes running, Untwisting all the chains that tie The hidden soul of harmony.
