Show I .OGDEN, UTAH. I i Sacred Heart Academy. (Special Correspondence.) January 6. the day appointed for the return of the pupils, found a Sodiy number at the morning mass, which was offered at an hour that made convenient con-venient the attendance of the Montana delegation, whose train had just pulled in. Before the following morning, there were few vacant places. The traditional tra-ditional tear-stained faces are not in evidence; in faTt, joyousness seems to prevail, and all are ready for a session of earnest work. Star-inspired and hope-bound, they will assuredly reach the goal. Miss Mazie O'Neill has resumed her school work, to the delight of pupils and faculty. In a short time, she has endeared herself to all with whom she came in contact, while her inventive turn of mind and her engaging personality person-ality have won many friends for her in Ogden. Reports from Idaho Falls tell of a very successful recital given in that city by former and present pupils of Sacred Heart academy, assisted by Professor C. Williams. Those taking part in the program were Mrs. B. F. Brookfleld, nee Coltman. her sister, Miss Alice Coltman, Miss Virginia Tarter, Tar-ter, '07, and May Tarter of Wyoming. The proceeds were devoted to church purposes, and promise to go far toward defraying some extra expenses. The numbers were mainly vocal and instru- ' mental, varied by a reading by Miss Alice Coltman, which won much up-, plause. ! The usual air of importance affected by the class of '08 has somewhat in-: creased, for talk of final essays seems to lend an' added dignity. Though live , montte of school work appear prod is- j ious. June days will not be long in roll- j ing around, and perhaps a sigh of re- ; gret will be heard amid the salvos of j congratulations. It is confidently hoped that the Og- j den correspondent will soon return; in-j deed, it is told sotto voce that she finds j California delightful, but little Ogden i holds more charms. It is pleasant to see the faces of "old 1 girls," as we familiarly term them around the academy, and holidays registered reg-istered many names. The tfe that binds a school and its pupils is a sacred one and cannot be too highly valued in these clays when the closest connections are severed with little cost. i |
