The great men and women of History were often all alonewhen they made their really big decisions, performed th e i rbest works, or planned thei r greates t conquests. They wereself-analysts. They withdrew from everybody and everythi ngin order to think alone and talk tofthemselves. Lincoln studied his borrowed books in solitude. Ex ile was the stim ulusto Dante's Inferno. Napoleon poured over his military cha rtsand maps in silence.Let us profit by the examples set by these people,remove ourselves from the radio, from all companydistractions when lessons must be done.

Let usand likeNone of our friendsCrowds unnerveWe must learn the value of solitude,can do for us what we can do by ourselves.When anyone of us has aWhenus and make us rush along madly.difficult problem to solve, she should work it out alone.a major question mu st be met, we ought to face it alone. Whenwe feel we have no one to turn to, we should find ourselvesand with the help of prayer.

Every girl 's tru e worth is determined by h e r ability :tostan d alone in emergencies. She should be able to find peacewithin herself. If she wants to improve herself, solitude willsometimes prove to be thegremedy. Sally McClain

The Eas ter ParadeEaste r . . . . candy, clothes and corsages! Umm m! Y o ucan't decide whether to get one of the tiny, flower hats or abig sailor. And don't you hope the w eather will be fine thi syear, for a change? A fter all, half the fun of the day is|t he

Easter Parade.Just a minute That's all very well, but E a s t e r is aChurch holiday, too. Yes, I know you celebrat e it by goingto Mass; but I 'l l give you any odds you like, that you k n o wabout what Jane and Anne and that Brown girl wore, thanwhat the sermon was j about. $Uh-huh, Lent is over; you did give up pie, did say the stations everyday and go to Masswell, almost every day. Now,it's E aster Sunday and time to be gay and happy. I 'l l grantyou all thatbut must you be gay and happy on God's time ?For just one hour, concentrate on God. Forget everythingelse; go back to the first realjmeaning of E aster . Go in sorrow with Magdalene to the tomb of Christ; gaze in awe atthe risen Lord; bow low before His Infinite Majesty.

_ Easter is the beginning of new life and hope for all. Beginagain with God; strai ghte n out your troubles; put a freshshine on your souland then, after Church, not during it"You'll be the grandest lady in the Easter Parade."

The Importance of ReadingWhy is it t ha t so many of us college people read l ittle nothing outside our required class readings? T h e p re twhich most of us give is that we are kept too busy with schwork to have time for much else. Of course, we all want sorelaxation and amusement away from books, and that is atshould be. But surely we feel an obligation t o ourselveskeep up with current affairsto broaden our knowledgevarious fields by reading. If we do not, we should! We cafool ourselves into believing that we are educated merely bcause we have attended college for four ye ars ! No, not evif we finish with a Magna Cum Laude!Even for the l iberal arts student there is a narrowing doto just a few fields, so that college studies alone do not gius a wide range of knowledge. We study economics, but we know more than the barest fundamentals in that subjeWe s tudy ph il osophy , bu t th ink of the b r e a d t h (and depth) of that field in which we have found but a dim rayl ight. But we have had the path pointed out to us, so t hwe ask for something real and not mere superficial informtion. We learn enough in school so th at w e can continue ourselves to seek more knowledgemore t ru th. I f we wat all intellectually ambitious, we would be stimulated ratthan satisfied with our college learning.Of course, we want to read for pleasure, and we should nneglect l ight reading; but it can be pleasure, too, to learn.If we do not get into the reading habit while we are stil lschool and our minds are full of questions and are interesin various subjects, we may never do so. A fter we are outschool, we will find other excuses for not having time to reand, before we realize it, we will not care; our curiosity wstag nate to the point where we will find it difficult to ranything heavier than the funny papers!It is college people who should be expected to have soulogical, thoughtful ideas about national and world questiowho should be able to think for themselves. Of course, have time to read if we want to . If we love readin g, w emake t ime ! | Ann St

FriendsiiFrienjis! IJow often Jiave we l j ^ a r d thjs pre jous^wspoken in our college halls. Yet, do we ever sto p for j u s tmoment to render a. silent prayer to God for giving us friendJust think, a friend is one at tached to another by esteem, spect, and affection! Can we hope th at our friends are atached to us for this reasi^? If not, can we make it possibWe must keep in mind the sacred duties an d obligations friends, one to another. Perh aps, while we are surrounded our families, we do not feel how precious it is to have frien

Sooner or later, the time may come when we may no longer toget her as a family. I t is then th at we begin to think abthe need of friends. A s it has been welljsaid, friendship ithin g of slow growt h. Therefore, it behooves us to recognthat we must give time for it to grow, that it is never too ely to cultivate friends. *fFriendship is one of the great themes of great l i teratuIndeed it is one of the supreme influences in the l ives of wers, and often has been their ^inspiration. A n d friendshbeing a kind of love, gives us an opportun ity to exercise,the appreciation of our friends, that great virtuethe greest of allcharity. | | j g Allene Steph

We-e-e-e-1-1-1, Roomy, here ' sth e final j report on .SodalityLeague Basketbal l .The last tilt of the first halfwas tha t fa t iguing, fast -pacinggame f with the Seminary on theVil la Court . The fourth quartercame and left a 43 to 29 mark onthe college victory slate.The first game off the secondhalf with the Villa at the Villagave th e \ Villa a 25 to 20 scoreto hang over our heads.Then along came the SacredHeart team and we swept overthem in an even greater way thanany other team, chalking up 73against the i r 8.The thi rd match was se t forMarch 4 but Saint Pe ter ' s , ourpar tner for this one , had a gamescheduled. Rather than cal l it aforfe i t , the authori t ies from theCatholic Youth Acti vities officewho governed this league said tocall it a postponed game that neednot be played except!in the caseof the decision of a trop hy. kjIn the fourth game we motSaint Mary's. Surprisethey ge tthe three t rophies.Fifth game was the scene foranother Seminary se t up and up set. ' After a basket-here-and-a-basket- there scoring event , thecollege managed a 33 to 26 leadwhen the whistle ended the gameand the league ser ies.Casualities cropped up this half,too. Claudia's badly stoved thumb. . shoulder and back injuries toRet tger and MeNerny of the Vi l la. . and Katrina's mishap wi thankle and eye. But everyone ison the mend which leaves basketball looking less like the brute.At the end of the first half, weheld second place with 4 wins and1 loss. The second half's rightfulsecond place can only be determined by playing that postponedgame wi th St . Pe ter ' s . Each teamwon two and lost two.
