| The past few weeks have been very
busy ones for the pupils of this school,
but in spite of the work in progress,
they managed to plan several pleasant
| afternoons, which were greatly en-
joyed by the favored ones.
The graduates were given a farewell
party by the High school girls. The
invitations, which were written in
rhyme, requested each of these young
ladies to appear representing book.
Some of the books were 1.-The Master
Christian AN Fashioned Girl, "
ITO Have and to Hold Lambs Tales
| of Shakespeare" Under the Red
Robe" Child of Mary" Man, the
! New-F Fashioned Girl" etc. The after
noon passed quickly with guessing con-
tests and games, high five being the
favorite. The various prizes were won
| by the following young ladies': Misses
Aileen Sullivan, Elizabeth Thompson
and Nellie Martin, while Miss Mary
Walsh was voted to be the most wor-
thy of the BOBBY prize, as the success
full one in losing the most of the
games. After the prizes were distrib-
uted all adjourned to the refectory,
amid much mirth and repartee. and
did ample justice to the tempting re-
past.
| During the following week the Sodal
| ity of the Blessed Virgin entertained
the Children of the Angels in the acad
envy hall. The Children of the Angels
were told they were to vote for of
f1cers, and upon entering the hall, were
surprised to see it decorated with
plants and little tables were arranged
in various angles to accommodate all
the members.
The statue of Our Lady, Queen of
the Angels, held prominent place. 1t
was a complete surprise and the girls
declared that they decidedly admired
this novel manner of voting and spent
a very enjoyable afternoon.
The studio pupils recently gave an
exhibition of their work since Christ
mas. The different studies were ar
ranged tastefully on easels or brackets
around the room and gave an artistic
effect. The large studies of the more
advanced pupils received special praise.
Among these were two copies of Gas
ties on the Rhine" and several large
flower pieces, such as Elizabeth
Thompson's Daisy and Clover" Irene
Keefe's "Clematis and Grapes" Viola
Dougherty's ''Tea Roses" Every one
appreciated the children's work At
one end of the room hung the studies
in black and white. These model draw
ings were much admired and two stud
les in charcoal of kittens and Rab-
bits" by Misses NJ. Day and H. Keefe,
were among the best and attracted
most attention. Two head studies,
"Evangeline" and the Age of limo
cence," by V. Dougherty and E. Keefe
held conspicuous places, and were
greatly admired. The pen and ink stud
les were considered very fine.
