II was with the warm and heartfelt
welcome of mother for children
homeward bound. that Alma Mate
opened wide her doors On Friday last
to receive her graduates and bid then
take possession once more of the homt
ground of girlhood's happy days. Ant
were any to question the joyousness o
their response, the most convincing
answer would be the ring of merr!
voices that echoed through the hall
and the bright and happy faces that
| in revisiting the cherished haunts Of
yore. said more eloquently than words
| How good it is to be here!'
The formal greetings to the Alumnae
were rendered in the form of an enter
tainnent by the pupils with the follow
ing programme:

! Misses Mahan and McCue.
The musical numbers and the recita-
| tons ELECTED well merited applause. In
st. Marys Journal" an Alumnae
edition of the graduates class paper,
there was a goodly variety of themes.
grave and gay in prose and verse, but
the dominant note was one of welcome
to the associates attending the re-
union. Miss McCues fine soprano
voice found splendid expression in her
solo, while Mascherene's For All
Eternity" proved a fitting theme for
Miss Mahan's rich contralto. which has
the rare quality of growing in favor
the oftener Il is heard. Again these
two contrasting voices were set off to
fine effect in the duet that closed and
easily climaxed the rest of this excel
lent programme.
The banquet room was tastefully
decorated with palms and ferns.
grand center bouquet of white and
yellow chrysanthemums adjoining the
table. Miss NJ. Bubothboltz, president
of Alumnae, presided. Seats of honor

Kelly, Y. c., the Rev. J. j. Guinan, S.
M. and the Rev. F. Schioccetti. A
choice menu was served: and amid the
toasts and the sounds of merry con-
verse, soft strains OF orchestral music
floated in from an adjoining room oc-
cupied by the Orpheus club.
The final exercise of the occasion was
a business meeting. the chief result of
which was the election of the following
officers for the ensuing term: Presi-
dent, Miss Mona McHugh. vice presi-
dent, Miss Martha Plumhoff: secretary,
Miss Helen SantSchi; treasurer. Miss
Aenos Hoge: executive committee, Miss
RANGES Phillips. Miss Mary Luce,
Miss Clara Raht and Miss Nora Glea-
son.
This being the first general reunion
since 1902. it was made the occasion for
the formal presentation of a framed
copy of the resolutions drawn UP by
the Alumnae at the time of Mother
LucTetia's death. which occurred
within this interval 1t is worthy of
note. too, that the date chosen for the
biennial meetings Of the Alumnae, is
the patronal feast of Mother Charles,
the first superior of the academy. and
who died here in 1890. Need we say
that the joys Of this happy reunion far
from being lessened were rather hal
lowed by these tender and prayerful
memories of the dear departed. whose
spirits, it We're easy to believe, still
hover over the scenes Of their earthly
labors especially when those for whom
they toiled and prayed are gathered
once more within their convent home.
