CLASS FLOWER AND COLORS Of all the flowers growing along the road of life, we, the Seniors. have chosen the Lily of the Valley as the flower of the class because of its beautiful significance. The fragrant-blossomed plant is the true image of the two virtues that have been so strongly stressed throughout our years in school, and which are such necessary weap- ons for defense against the wiles of the world. These virtues are purity and humility. The smooth white petals of the minute bell-like flower reflect the beauty of this first virtue which must become as a sweet fragrance sent out from our souls lingering always throughout our lives and purifying the lives of those around us. The Lily of the Valley, as its name reveals. inhabits inconspicuous places where often only God is there to see and appreciate its beauty. thus exemplifying the virtue which is the cornerstone of all virtues-humility-the virtue by which we acknowledge God as our Creator and our total dependence on Him to Whom we direct our unseen good deeds. As our class colors we have chosen White for purity and Aqua to signify the water flowing from the fount of all grace, Almighty Cod. through the Immaculate Heart of Nlary, to us, giving the graduates of 1951 the strength and courage to carry on in life's school as we have in our years at Saint Theresa-in the love and service of Him Who is Pure and Humble of Heart.
