In the ble for efore she comes, and it is only for Parents’ convenience that payment f ®Plit in half at all. This policy ® clearly stated in the St. Mary s catalogue, and there are practical easons behind it. ,, Since St. Mary’s is a small dol, including both high schoo i. d junior college, it cannot func- on a semester basis. With the Pidly rising cost of operation and „ constant flow of students and leaving at their own ev '^pdience, the semester _ system, larger institutions, is an ex- business.

Fish may be able to solve the problem of girls who wish to travel to Europe but dislike the idea of having to join a standard tour and be shuttled rapidly from one coun try to the other. Having formerly worked in the travel business and toured Europe herself, Mrs. Fish would like to organize a six weeks tour of about twenty girls to travel extensively in England, Scotland, France, Italy, Switzerland, and possibly Austria. However, the pro- jioscd tour would be tailored to fit the desires of the girls, with vari ations possible. Ylrs. Fish would like to travel with the intention of getting a full appreciation of what these several countries have to of fer. Possibly joining the tour would be Airs. Fish’s daughter, Lydia, who has been singing in London for several months. Mrs. Fish asks that all interested girls please see her. CIRCLE WALKS On Tuesday night the Circle walked to induct two new members and increase its number to eight. Garbed in traditional white hooded robes, the group braved January cold to follow in the solemn torch- led invitation walk around the school. Matilda Gholson, new Circle member from Henderson, is a hall counselor on East Wing. Matilda is chief marshal and president of the Young Democrats Club. Last year she served as a junior class representative to the Legislative Body. 1963 marks Matilda’s second year on the Alay Court. Alice Gribbin, who was inducted into the Circle, is from Tuscaloose, Alabama. She was on the Handbook staff last year and this year is a hall counselor in Holt. Alice is also chairman of the Altar Guild, and was stage manager for Alice in Wonderland. Alice has served this year on the May Day nominating committee. Sophomores Continue Sales Last Friday night, January 11, ten Sophomores resumed their sandwich sales. Sandwiches are brought to the halls at nine-thirty and again at eleven, provided there are sandwiches left. However, in previous sales, all have been sold in the first sale. In sales before Christmas, the average profit was ten dollars per week. Due to the great number of sales, the number of sandwiches made will be raised from seventy- five to one hundred. A variety of sandwiches have been made: ham and cheese, peanut butter and jelly, grilled cheese, and tunafish. If any one has any suggestions as to other types of sandwiches that would sell, Winborne Shaffer, vice-president of the Sophomore class, would ap preciate any ideas. So far, the sales have been ex cellent, and it is hoped that they will continue. Feast of Lights Celebrated On January 6th, people all over the world celebrated Epijihany with the Feast of Lights, a beautiful and moving service that commemorates the birth of Christ and His coming as the Light of the World. The origin of the celebration is found in the beginnings of the Christian religion. The Eastern church celebrated Christ’s birth and baptism on the same day—January the 6th, while the Western Church around Rome celebrated on Decem ber 25th. By the 4th century, em phasis was placed on the shepherds on December the 25tli, and on January 6th the wise men were emphasized. The ritual symbolizes our own part as Christians in Christ’s com ing and reminds us of our obligation to carry His message.
