MARY’S OLD LACE A display of old laces has been set up in the library by Mrs. Susan Linehan Steele. Mrs Steele has always loved lace articles but she does not collect it. All of the pieces have been gifts to her or have passed into her hands through her own or her husband s fam- ilv The laces were made in many European countries: France, Italy, Spain, Belgium, and Germany. . , * Some of the lace articles are almost a century old. The black ^n, made by Mrs^ Mary Little Steele, dates back to 1875. The babv cap which was made for Mr. William Steele by his mother, Josephine Steele, was created in 1899. She was also responsible for the pattern and layout °f bertha collar. The doll that is being displayed is owned by Mrs. William Johnston. Laces were commonly used many years ago. They were used for altar cloths and to cLr tears and frayed edges on dresses. The laces served decorative as well as practical '’Tlrs!'Steele’s display will be in the libra^ hi October 30. She invites the public to “ee it and hopes to trigger an interest for the laces in other people. 62 DAYS till the HOLIDAYS! PAGE 3 Day Student Scoop MARYMAC WEBB With the opening of school, the Day Stu dents were excited to see their “new” house. The downstairs has been redecorated with new wallpaper, carpet^ and air-conditioning. They were excited to say the least! The day students would like to extend an invitation to the boarders to come visit us anytime. We anticipate an exciting, busy year. We have started the year off with a picnic for the new girls during Orientation Week and plan to have some bake sales, a Casino Party for fathers, and other fund raising projects to complete redecorating the house. In the Spring, we hope to have an Open House for boarders and a Raleigh Alumni Tea. To strengthen the relationships between board ers and day students, the senior day students had a supper party for the senior boarders on Thursday, September 16. Even though the day students are few, we are an integral and important part of St. Mary’s. We hope the day and boarder rela tionships will become even stronger this year and realize that it is up to every St. Mary’s girl to strengthen the bonds between boarders and day students.
