Despite the early rising, one does not tarry in the dorms, because it is a mad rush to the wash-room where the maxim, first come, first served predominates. Never a dull moment for the academy students, be- cause eavh one follows a full schedule. Under the guidance of our faculty. classes prove most interesting and hold the attention of all. Open air recreation tends to stimulate the appetite considerably: hence, meal times become an important hour of the day. After class time, study periods are not neglected, as one can readily judge by the earnestness of the students during these periods which are supervised by various mem- bers of the faculty. With towel, soap, and toothbrush in hand, once more there is a dash for the wash-room, where the rules of health are faithfully observed. The most welcome time of day, however, is bed-time, when after a scheduled day of studies and recreation, one may truly appreciate a comfortable bed.

Sims if . ALMA MATER Time changes all things including the scenery on our campus. No matter what season it may be, the admiring eyes of Sisters and students feast with pleasure on the beautiful wonders of Mother Nature . As au- tumn embellishes our campus with the different shades of red. yellow. brown. and green, many interesting activities take place. While heaps of rainbow leaves flare up into huge honfires, wiener, marshmallow. and corn roasts top our list of entertainment. Hay gathering. corn husking, and horse back riding with the wind through your hair, gives you that wonderful glad to be aliveu feeling. Mr. Winter, full of vim, vigor, and vitality covers our campus with a Huffy, crystal-like blanket. Jack Frost dips the thermometer to 0', pokes his finger into the lake and invites the girls out with their sleds, and ice- skates. Pink cheeks and red noses are an indication of fun and health. In comes March like a lion, out he goes like a lamb, leaving behind Miss Spring, who wears a beautiful pale green dress trimmed wiih sequins of sunshine. Her hair is braided with pussy willows and tulip red lips. This exquisite creature graciously decorates our campus for the beautiful May Crowning ceremony and also for graduation. When the graduates bid their Alma Mater farewell, they will carry with them the portrait of her clothed in the loveliness of the seasons. L
