The presence of the Very Rev. John Kealy and Fathers Tighe and Carroll afforded added enjoyment to the entertainment this evening in honor of St. Thomas. Father Kealy, the visiting speaker, dwelt on the true spirit of Catholic Education, pleasingly interspersing statistics in support of his discourse. The Rev. Joseph Smarsh, the Seminary representative, chose as his topic Catholic Leadership. Both orations were nothing short of masterpieces. The musical portion of the pro- gram was ably taken care of by the Choral Society under the direction of Coleman Carroll. Several individual artists rendered vocal and instrumental solos. THURSDAY, 7. Attendance at the Community's Solemn High Mass marked the celebration of the Feast of St. Thomas, the Patron of theologians and philosophers. FRIDAY, 8. Theologians unexpectedly obtained a partial holi- day when the Dogma class was called off due to Father Ambrose's indisposition. Immediately after this, the Patrology class was likewise deferred because of the Rev. Professor's necessitated presence with the Major Course men. Al Henke quietly passed the free periods between the blankets. 1115211

The flowers bud with natures sway. The sun in heaven shines. The brook goes on its twisted course Among the lofty pines. The robin flutters north again, So birds of every hue, To sing their songs of joy and bliss .4 Announcing Spring to you. Cause your cares to fade away, Let joy take place of sorrow, The sun has shone in days gone by, ,It surely will tomorrow. gglluiulg ' fx - Illlllllllllll :munmuuE , LZ , .I 1531
