Sacred Heart Academy. j Tuesday, Sept. 8, theNFeast of Our Lady's Nativity, was the date named for the reopening of Sacred Heart acad emy and St. Joseph's school. The number num-ber of pupils enrolled was exceedingly large, and has received additions daily, so that the prospects for an unusually large school are In keepings with the success of last year the most prosperous prosper-ous Sacred Heart has ever known. The register contains names from all the intermountain states and even maidens from the nation's capital. Many improvements were noted by the old pupils, but the special objects of rejoicing were the new recreation halls, which had been so thoroughly renovated as to retain nothing of their former appearance. . Situated on the ground floor, the sunlight did not always al-ways reach these apartments owing to the low windows. This defect has been entirely remedied by cutting a trench outside, plastering and then lengthening lengthen-ing the windows. This improvement, together with brightly-tinted walls, smooth new floors and general furnishings, furnish-ings, render these rooms doubly habitable. hab-itable. The first society to be reorganized was the League of the Sacred Heart, which assembled Monday. Sept. 14, and banded together with dts usual strength of purpose and earnest endeavor. It is an acknowledged fact by all within the academy that this society secures innumerable in-numerable graces and blessings, not for its members only, but for all who recommend rec-ommend themselves to its prayers. Sunday school classes at St. Joseph's were resumed on the Feast of the Holy Name of Mary, Sept. 13, a. fitting day to place the instruction of the little ones under Our Lady's care. It is to be hoped that the number registered will not diminish as the weather grows colder, cold-er, but that parents will heed the In junction of the pastor of St. Joseph s and co-operate with their ever-zealous friend, Father Cushnahan, whose interest inter-est as he declared last Sunday was his people and their children. The Misses Kathleen and Myra Kane, 'OS, are visiting at Sacred Heart, the former renewing school associations, the latter taking a course of treatment for rheumatic troubles that have lately developed. A special feast of the Sisters of the Holy Cross was that of Sept. 14, and its observance was fittingly celebrated at the academy by the singing of appropriate appro-priate hymns at the morning mass and the giving of Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament at 4 p. m. |
