IS, one or our music teachers; sister
JOsepha, our sewing teacher; Sister
Anna. who laugh the Minims; Sister
Gertrude, cur German teacher: Sister
Eugenia, who taught us TO say 'Parlel
Vous Franchise" dear Sisters Martha
and Maudwina, who taught US to look
for goodies as we passed the refec-
| tory, and many others quite as dear to
our hearts.
But it is not only these teachers who
live in memory. There are those who
have gone to their well earned reward.
Among the most loved and revered o'f
the latter is dear Mother Charles. whose
feast we celebrate tonight-and we'll we
might. for it was she who built up th&s
splendid institution who continued the
work only we'll begun by Mother Au-
Susta. 1t was by Mother Charles ener-
getic, capable. devoted and unceasing
toll that ST. Mary's became one of the
superior schools of the West. All who
were fortunate to come under Mothers
care and influence have in their lsearts
for her deep and lasting feeling of
love. AS a Superior she ruled with
firmness, yet with gentIeness. OF the
many pupils attending the Academy.
she manifested interest in each and
every one. She watched with care and
affection not only our mental and moral
development, but our physical well be-
ing. always giving to each one a full
share of her attention. In her death
the Academy lost its greatest benefac-
/ tress. But Mother Charles works Will
continue to live among us, and we shall
ever cherish her memory.
Among others who have passed away
are Sister Pauline who recorded the
first roll Of st. Mary's: Sisters F'ideIfs.
Bonita, Digma and Laugorf. some Of
our most devoted teachers: little Sister
GOnzaque, our French and painting
teacher whose life we shall always re-
member as a picture. shedding the most
beautiful of lights and the softest of
shadows.
But they all lived to realize the
blessings earned by their labOrs-their
harvest of glory was gathered-they
lived to see st. Mary's one of the
brightest stars in the educational firma-
ment of the intermountain States.
Let US not deplOre their departure
rather emulate their example and pray
that our lives may reach the same de-
gree Of perfection and usefulness.
So live when thy summons comes to join
The tnnumerahle caravan, that moves
To that mysterious realm, where each
shall take
Hi chamber in the silent halls of death.
Though go not like the quarry slave at
Scourged to his dungeon, but, sustained
and soothed
BY an unfaltering trust. approach thy
grave,
Like one who wraps the drapery Of his
couch
About him. and lies down to pleasant
Dreams
IN THE RECREATION HALL.
At the close of the banquet a pleas
ant feature of the evening was the adj
jOurnment of the graduates to the rec
reatiOn hall, where, to the sound Of
appropriate music and song, they sur
rendered themselves to amusement.
There the merry moments passed I'M
til the time that had elapsed since
their graduation seemed forgotten and
they were again carefree schoolgirls as
in the days that are no more"
But partings were finally in order. yet
not without L-rv hope of meeting again
i'm November, 1900 under the Academy
roOftree, to draw closer together in the
bonds of good fellowship and love.
