'DON”

I AM gazing from the window at the driz• zling rain, as I am reliving that eventful September 1, 1931, when I entered St. Peter’s. I recall the thrill and awe which was mine on that great day. Time went sw iftly, during the remaining four years, in a maze of studies and extra-curricular activities. Now I am on the threshold of graduation, and as time draws near to bid "adieu” to St. Peter’s I do so with a feeling of regret at the loss of the companions whose friendship has meant so much to me and whom I will cherish for the remainder of m y life. I feel most grateful for all that has been done for me by the self-sacrificing Jesuit Fathers and scholastics, and the zealous efforts of the lay-teachers.

RAD U ATIO N day brings to a close not only the successful completion ot m y studies but also the intimate connection with m y classmates who have dubbed me "Farmer.” It was but four short years ago that I entered St. Peter’s. Although I did not realize it at that time, I was destined to spend four of the happiest years of my life on Grand Street. In that time I came in contact, by means of the various activi­ ties, with numerous fellows to whom I now say "Good-Bye,” only with a feeling of sad­ ness and reluctance. Although we are all happy because we have finished our task, yet it is going to be hard to lose dear friends and miss the happiness and warmth that ever awaited us at St. Peter’s.
