greens, with that glad look of hope
in her eyes singing, sometime low,
and sometime at the top of her
voice Amt THAT GOOD

WEEKLY QUOTATION: The
teacher of youth, whether in a
public or private school, has no
absolute right of his own. All that
he exercises has been given to him
by others. Every Christian child
has an inalienable right to instruc-
ton that is in harmony with the
teachings of the church, the pillar
and foundation of all truth. Pope
Plus XI.
