MOST REVEREND JOHN J. MITTY
Archbishop of San Francisco



Our heartfelt aloha is extended to His Excellency, the most Rever­
end John J. Mitty, D.D., Archbishop of San Francisco. When

the Vicariate of Hawaii was recently raised to the
status of a diocese, we became a suffragan see
of the archdiocese of San Francisco.

It is with great pleasure that we, of the Maryknoll School, offer




OUR A F F E C T I O N A T E










to the Bishop who will succeed the late Bishop Stephen P. Alen-

castre as shepherd of the flock in the Hawaiian Islands.


As we complete the work on our year book the name of the new
Bishop has not yet been announced. But we would like to take

this opportunity of assuring him of our loyal devotion to and gener­
ous support of all his works when he arrives in our Paradise of the

Pacific to assume his new duties.


Our prayer for him will ever be:


"O God, the shepherd and ruler of all the faithful, graciously
regard thy servant whom thou has been pleased to appoint as

pastor over the Church in Hawaii; grant, we pray, that both by

word and example he may profit those over whom he is set, and
together with the flock committed to his care attain to eternal life.
Through Christ Our Lord. Amen.”

REV. MOTHER MARY JOSEPH



"A s one lam p lights another nor grows less
So nobleness enkindleth nobleness."


For being the inspiration of our teachers who, in their development
of children, strive to make them perfect citizens not only on earth
but also in the Kingdom of God; and for mirroring in her own life
effulgent rays of the Divine Light of the World so as to be Christ's
instrument in helping youth to "follow the gleam," we, the
graduates of 1941, are proud and happy to dedicate
"The 1941 Tribute" to

MOTHER MARY JOSEPH

"God give us men! The time demands
Strong minds, great hearts, true faith, and willing hands."


Good citizenship must be lived rather than just learned. And
yet if we know not the ideals and truths which have been the guid­
ing principles of our government since its beginning, living it
becomes a thing of chance. Each of us has a place in the life of

our community and we must grasp all opportunities for service
and achievement. We must make the American creed of William
Tyler Page our own and say: "I believe it is my duty to my country
to love it; to obey its laws; to respect its flag; and to defend it
against all enemies."

A famous educator once said to his pupils, "You are a part of
all of the past, and the key to all of the future. You have uncounted
years ahead in which to influence no one can tell how many

people."

Education is essentially a social activity. One of its chief aspects
is to prepare man for what he must be and for what he must do.

Since man was created first and foremost for God, true education
must be directed toward man's last end. There can be no ideally
perfect education that is not Christian education. That is the
reason for the existence of Catholic schools.


In a Catholic atmosphere evil inclinations are corrected, good
tendencies encouraged, the mind is enlightened with super­
natural truths and the will is strengthened by means of grace, in

addition to the imparting of secular knowledge. It is guite evident
that this training in virtue, good morality and godliness facilitates
the formation of citizens. It stimulates virtue and integrity of life

in the young hearts who will be the citizens of tomorrow. It de­
velops the ability of young people to cooperate, to work and play
together, now and in the future, for the welfare of all which is the
hope of democracy. The training is based on a holy and filial fear
of God which foundation is the source of all authority, order, tran­

quility and prosperity.


Therefore to our Catholic youth we say:

"To you from failing hands we throw
The torch: be yours to hold it high."

THE LATE BISHOP STEPHEN P. ALENCASTRE, SS.CC.
Died on board the Matsonia, November 9, 1940, while he was returning to
Honolulu from the centenary celebration in Los Angeles.



IN MEMORIAM

"O God, who amongst Thy apostolic priests didst adorn Thy ser­
vant, Stephen, with the pontifical dignity, grant, we

beseech Thee, that he may also be associated
with them in everlasting fellowship.''

REV. JOHN M. COULEHAN, M.M.
Pastor of Sacred Heart Church

My Dear Graduates:

Here in our Islands on every side, feverish preparations for
national defense are taking place. Gigantic armaments are grow­
ing up over night. Though we hope and pray daily that through
God's grace we may be spared the terrors of war, yet all of us must
be preparing to do our duty valiantly and faithfully when and if
the emergency arises.
The frontispiece of your "Tribute of 1941" contains the emblem of
Christ and God—the Cross and the Chi Rho. In the Maryknoll
School you have been trained daily to know and love Him and all
for which He stands. Day by day virtue has been implanted in
your hearts at the cost of much sacrifice. Serve Him—your first
love—faithfully at all times! This will be the finest preparation you
can make for service to your country!

Beautifully embossed on the cover of your yearbook is the
American Flag which enfolds the book and your own personal
photographs within it. You're wrapped, as it were, in the Stars and
Stripes. Keep yourselves always enshrouded within them by your
unswerving loyalty to your country and its democratic institutions.
This type of patriotism and love of country—your second great
love—has been your daily food at Alma Mater. Let "God Bless
America" be not only your daily national hymn, but also your liv­
ing prayer—living by your constant loyalty to America.
If always in your daily life you fly the banner of Christ and His
heavenly kingdom alongside the flag of our country, by ex­
emplifying Catholic as well as patriotic ideals in your way of liv­
ing, you can go forth after graduation into the present world of
uncertainty and strife with confidence, knowing that the training
to godliness as well as patriotism received in the Maryknoll
School, will have prepared and fitted you as well as is humanly
possible, for any and all emergencies either in your own life or in
that of your country.
Devotedly in Christ,

interested in all activities that concern boys.

All boys in the school, especially those be-

a real friend in Father Adrien A. Cloutier, M. M.
Father is moderator of the Junior Holy Name
Society and the altar boys.
Brother Marius Donnelly, M. M., though once
a familiar figure on the campus is not seen so
frequently of late due to the pressure of parish
duties. Yet we know that Brother is just as in­

On September 3, 1927 with one hundred
fifty pupils in six grades, the Sacred Heart
parish school officially opened under the
direction of the Maryknoll Sisters who had
SISTER
MARY MILDRED
recently come to Hawaii at the invitation
Principal
of the Rev. Father William Kress. As the
number of students grew, the need for more

SISTER classrooms increased. Additional property

crowded conditions.

On June 14, 1935 Maryknoll graduated
thirteen boys and girls, its first Senior High

School class to receive diplomas. Each suc­
ceeding year found such an increase of
students that Bachelot Hall and the rectory
library had to be used as classrooms. How­
ever, in 1938, when the Sisters moved from

their old Convent on the school grounds to
a larger home on Alexander Street more
classroom space was thus made available.

MISS VIRGINIA GONSALVES THE STUDENT COUNCIL


A more steadfast, energetic and
generous secretary than our Miss
Gonsalves could not be found any­
where. She finds time not only for
her ocean-deep routine office matters,
but for unending mimeographing as
well.
The Maryknoll School Council did
not formally begin to function until
the spring semester. This is the first
year in the history of our school that
student government has manifested
itself. Joseph Tom and Bernice
Minami deserve special commenda­
tion for the genuine and whole-hearted
interest and zest with which they have
labored to develop this organization.
Clarence and Helen are interested
spectators as Wilhelmina gives a
demonstration as part of a religion
lesson. Special topics studied are:
The Church and the Commandments
during the Freshman year; the Liturgy
by the Sophomore class; the Life of
Christ by the Juniors; and Catholic
Action and Apologetics during the
Senior year.

An interesting series of lectures by
experts in Vocational Guidance and
d trip to the Territorial Legislature
which convened in February made
the Civics class most practical and
worth-while. Our junior citizens truly
feel that they have been inspired to
"Leave behind them
Footprints on the sands of time."

CLASSES



Please don't get the impression that
George, Mary and Mary Jo are always
as serious in their laboratory periods as
they seem to be here during an experi­
ment. Learning how to etch glass was
great fun for our chemists-to-be.

Harvey Ito, our genius in all things
artistic, discourses to the Seniors with
the aid of the scrap book which he illus­
trated with pen and ink sketches of Eng­
lish and American writers.
Walter Uohara seems to be quite in­
volved in the intricacies of proving his
inscribed angles equal.

If boys think that girls are afraid of
frogs just note the size of the four-leggers
that Lillian and Catherine are handling
and it will soon dispel all illusions. Mary
and Laurel are busy with their micro­
scope. Is that a worm you are playing
with, Raymond?

CLASSES















































No, they're not playing with
dolls! Wilhelmina and George
are setting up their colonial peo­
ple within a fort. This was just
one of many such projects ex­
hibited by the American History
class during the week of April 7.
Our photographer found Vic­
toria arranging the shelves in










the Maryknoll book store prior to the
advent of a steady stream of customers
during the 10:00 o'clock recess period.
Poor Betty, did camera shyness cause
those two mistakes in your Latin trans­
lation?
Sure, and it's "himself," our "Jackie,"
taking a stroll through the streets of Ma­
drid, during la Clase de Espanol.

The seventh grade boys are helped in
their search for books by Tomi and Elsie
who have been assistant school libra­
rians for the past three years. What a dent
graduation will cause in that quarter!





The grand finale draws near.
Friendships have grown strong­
er—activities broader—and life
much more meaningful and in­
teresting in our last year here at
Mary knoll. We begin to feel the
tremendous responsibility that
is ours not only in giving good
example to the under classmen
but in taking our place in a rest­
less, war-torn world.
A new spirit has been instilled
into us, —"Non sibi sed aliis,"—
''not for one's self, but for oth­
ers," the spirit that has grounded
us for active constructive service
when participating in democra­
tic citizenship.
The approach of graduation
makes us realize very forcibly
that "parting is such sorrow."
Our days here, so happy in
prospect, will be wonderful ones
in retrospect.
"We'll love you then as now
we do.
Alma Mater, Maryknoll."

Can you imagine anyone not being late or absent even once during twelve
year's attendance at School? That is the record achieved by our Lillian from
September 1929 to June 1941. And in one year Mary Margaret has completely
captivated us by her charm and graciousness. Bernice has been outstanding for
her spirit of service and her manner of facing life's problems with a merry twinkle
in her eye. Extra-curricular activities, especially the Glee Club and Choir, have
kept Florence pretty much on the go for the past school year. If Harold would
only stop worrying we are sure that he could truly realize his all-absorbing ambi­
tion to become an M. D. A similar ambition is also shared by Harriet, who came
to us four years ago from St. Augustine's School at Waikiki. Eloise's sunny dis­
position has contributed greatly to the happiness of all senior classes. We are
wondering if it will be possible to find anyone to replace Elsie in the Library. She
has devoted three faithful, efficient years to that service.

Harvey is extremely clever with his paint brush, and this fact

has kept him extraordinarily busy illustrating the Chi Rho Knoller,
The Tribute and an Hawaiian History text. Tomi is Elsie's other

half—and also a faithful and capable worker in the Library. Re­
becca's nimble fingers won for her the position of typist on the

Tribute business staff. Forty-five inches of refinement and attrac­
tiveness are personified in Jane. Quiet Thelma has busied herself

as the office assistant every afternoon. "Ace high" seems incom­
plete and unexpressive when applied to Bernice, a girl with ster­

ling gualities of character. Mook Lan is a scholar "par excellence"
who has a dynamic urge to cure the ills of modern social life.

Petite and attractive is Nancy with much, yet friendly reserve.

Victoria's unruffled good nature and Yayoi's jovial smile have radiated a
sunny friendliness among the Seniors. It seems scarcely possible that one person

could participate properly in so many activities, yet Ida has done it and done
it well. The editorship of "The Chi Rho Knoller" was an outlet for her continuous
energy and enthusiasm. We'll have to do some scouting before we'll find any
one in dramatics and class antics to equal Robert, our "Jackie" of stage fame.
Sincerely cooperative Marie is a pattern of neatness, friendliness, and kindness

just fifty-six inches long. Marian is a delightful application of the adage, "Not so
serious as to miss the finer things of life." An ultra chic wardrobe to go with her
attractive features seems to be Betty's specialty. Gladys is a charming, petite
miss, ever ready with her giant-sized heart.

on the Chi-Rho-Knoller or Tribute staffs—others joined the

The Juniors' Valentine party given in honor of the Seniors
was a most successful affair as was the Junior-Senior ban­

the Juniors were guests of the Seniors.

Vim, vigor and vitality characterized this class,
for its members entered every field with enthusi­

As a wise precaution they took their initial
plunge into the mysteries of plane geometry,
Julius Caesar, and world history. Many of the
students supplemented scholastic endeavor by
capturing the spotlight in the Glee Club pro­
gram, in Girl Scout activities, in dramatics. Yes,
even the editor of the 1942 Chi Rho Knoller was
chosen from this group.
Their gaiety replaced by a meditative spirit,

gram participation, the Class of
'44 shines brightly and promises
to be a helpful factor in the fu­
ture progress of Maryknoll High.
A Valentine party was staged
by the Freshmen to show that
they had attained the status of
"grownsters." A large number of
the class participated in either
sports or in one or more of the
major clubs.
Came spring and with it the
Crusade convention wherein the
Frosh were duly represented.
Then there was the usual last-
minute planning and cramming
in Biology, Latin, Algebra and
English. 'Twas an unusual sight
to see this light-hearted class
more than a little perturbed.
Such a notable record in all
fields portends the successful
assuming of democratic respon­
sibilities when the Class of '44
takes its place in the world of
