intellectual world of culture and re

maintain the high principles of
Christain womanhood, of which
Catholic education is the exponent.

program was presented by the stu

and grace of the young ladies in
their various rules delighted a large
and appreciative audience. Many
carefully chosen and well rendered
instrumental and vocal selections
received their merited applause. A
drama “The Shower of Boses” was
exceedingly well staged and much
talent and ability was displayed
throughout the performance.

hers on the program was the address
given by Rt. Rev. Win. T. Russell,
D. D., Bishop of Charleston, who
complimented the student body on
the excellence of the evening’s en
tertainment and addressed to the
graduates words of congratulation
on the successful termination of
life’s first venture—school days, of
fering them, likewise, counsel and
kindly advice to be remembered in
the more serious phases of life to
which graduation is but the transi
