With child like trust and love we of
Mankind I dedicate our Log of Memories,
The Tribute of 1952, to Our Lady, Star
of the Sea.
Placing ourselves under her guidance as we
begin our voyage of life, we beg that her
light guide us as we sail the turbulent seas
to the Celestial Harbor. We firmly
believe that her beams will search out and
uncover the hidden reefs of worldly
pleasure, the waves of immorality, the
unpredicted storms of rebuff and dis­
appointment. Her light will enable us to
detect the swirling eddies of Communism
and hate of God; she will aid us to elude
the persistent undertow of human selfish­
ness which threatens to set us off our
course and make our journey perilous.
We beg Our Lady to help us write,due

' l !.

day the final log of a safe and happy
journey. Then, secure in the Harbor of
Heaven, we will all sing her praises
eternally, “Ave, Stella Maris!” So be it!

Dear Graduates:
The Tribute theme of this year suggests a sea voyage under the radiant guidance of the Star of the Sea.

You are really em barking on a voyage whether it he to a further advancem ent in studies or to the beginning
of your life occupation. Accordingly, as you sail away 1 could pledge you nothing more propitious, than that
you remain always under the guidance of Our Blessed M other— Star of the Sea. No doubt you will always think
of M aryknoll— the Knoll of M ary— and that very thought should remind you often of her. May she always be for
you “ the beacon of light uplifted, set in the Northern Sea. Turn always to her— your own guiding star.

As your pastor, 1 have been with you since your grade school days. Probably for that reason there are not
unm ixed feelings in bidding you aloha on your voyage. But there is also the far happier thought that you have
been so well prepared for it, and so much has been accom plished in journeying to your port of em barkation.

You em bark in the silver jubilee year of M aryknoll in Hawaii. May that augur a silver lining of every cloud
no m atter how stormy the sea. And you will surely find it if you keep close to our Divine Lord. You know that
the Star of the Sea will aid you m ightily in that.

Go then with God and be ever under His own M other’s protection. Bon Voyage! Aloha! Till all of us
reach the everlasting shores together!

Sincerely yours in Christ,
GEORGE C. POW ERS. M.M.
Pastor of Sacred Heart Church

ian Islands. One of the two schools which they es­
tablished was at Heeia, W indward Oahu, the second
at Punahou in Honolulu. This latter— ours— began
with five room s and 140 students and the teachers
living on the stage of the Hall. Today Maryknoll
School has grown into two divisions of high and
gram m ar school with 1,124 students and a real con­
vent. all within the span of a quarter century.

Students of today and yesterday wished to show
appreciation and gratitude for the Maryknoll educa­
tion which has been theirs and planned a Home­
coming Day for November twenty-fifth. The Alumni,
together with the present senior classes scheduled a
whole day of events for form er graduates and their
families. The day commenced with the Holy Sacri­
fice of the Mass and breakfast in Bachelot Hall.
Later, form er classes met in assigned rooms on the
campus to hear again the class history, will, and
prophecy. Volleyball and basketball teams, formed
by the high school and alumni, competed against
each other in the afternoon. The faculty renewed
friendships w'ith past Knollers and the more recent
Sisters made new acquaintances at a tea which was
held in the library. Following this, the seniors en­
tertained with international songs and dances. Mr.
George Peterson, president of the Alumni, presented
Sister Mary de Paul, as Regional Superior of the
Sisters, with a lei of twenty-five silver dollars. Ben­
ediction of the Blessed Sacram ent at Sacred Heart
Church closed the day.

A perfect way to begin the day. 13

Also in honor of the jubilee year, the
senior Hom em aking class, under the
guidance of Sister Gregory, planned and
served a dinner for the faculty at Christ­
mastime. Servings worthy of prizes from
women's magazines were beautiful to
behold and delicious to taste. Besides
preparing the meal, the girls decorated
the library in holiday dress, set the lovely
buffet tables, and acted as hostesses during
the dinner.

Just like the good ol’ days.
