THE ALUMNAE BERNICE CRAWLEY OFFICERS BERNICE CRAWLEY ........................ President M. A. COFFEY ....................... Vice'President W. DALH Recording Secretary M. WALKER ................. Corresponding Secreta'ry M. R. MANN ............................ Treasurer A new alumna, from a graduating class of not so long ago, sent us her impres sions of Homecoming Day. Since the Eiold gradsll who have seen many a class initiated have heard something similar from almost every new member, the letter has been saved, and is very interesting to all who read it and see in it the true feeling of every graduate. The letter begins: ilHomecoming was grand. It was the perfect finishing touch to graduation week. When the Alumnae invitation arrived, my curiosity urged me to accept and see what it was all about. You, who are old timers in the Alumnae know how thrilled I was that I did go. At Mass again in the chapel, I experienced a feeling of joy and pride in being a graduate of Saint Scholastica. It wasnlt hard to see why the girls who had graduated before always looked forward to this Home! coming as their annual treat, and indeed it proved to be something I would not have missed for the world. llYou canlt guess how much Ilve thought of the Alumnae this summer. The vacation has been all that I could have expected. Ilve been playing tennis and even finding time to read several new books. In spite of all this fun, not going back to Saint Scholastica gives me such a lonesome feeling. llm counting on making up for it by meeting all the girls at the very first- tea of the year. The Alumnae hope that each graduate of nineteen thirtyeone will find in her Alumnae the opportunity to keep her school friendships throughout all the years after graduation. BERNICE CRAWLEY, l27 .
