Beginning A gain
Again we IItand at the threllhold of a new
scholntie year, and the future, bright with promise,
stretchu out before us. With mingled joy and
trepidation we return to school: joy at meeting and
greeting old friends and new; trepidation al the
t hought that the year's accomplishments depend
upon oUl"llelves.
For the Senion, this year, the last t hey will
!pend at NU;areth, will leave never-to·be·forgotten
memories to add to their already precious store.
The vision of Commencement t hat seemed $0 far
away lut June when another group of girlll in
academie garb stepped up to receive t he coveted
sheepskin approaches them more intimately. Not
infrequently now do they think of their great
day to come with il.!! happineu of ! uccen and sadne$!!
of parting.
The JunioTII look upon thi. year II! the time
when "dreams come true." They are now distinguished
liS upperclassmen with the pleasure of
having "little sisters" in the fres hman clnss. This
is t heir "Prom year," 110 eagerly awaited. T?o,
they find their work, with specialization, in majOr
lind minor $ubjecu, entirely interesting. To them
thi, yen, in every respect, is preeminently dellirIIble.
The Sophomores likewise anticipate what the
year will bring for them. They are being led into
the brolfd field of science this year, and are finding
many new and absorbing interest.. No longer
the youngest of the classes they feel now t ruly
experienced in the ways of college life.
Those who are entering NaZilreth liS Freshmen
look questioningly towards the future. Though
they are as yet a bit bewildered by t he diffe rence
from high school, they w!ll soon be entirely accustomed
to the new routine of college. Alrendy we
feel they are beginning to regard Nazareth with
the same loyalty and affection older studenb feel
for their Alma Mater. To them especially t he wish
is extended that they use the golden opportunitie~
that will surely come to them.
We ought all to re.olve now to put our ver)'
best into everything we do. The year holds infinite
polIIIibilitieB and we can do with them what we
will, at the very beg:nning.
Sagu of all tlmeJ have emphf\3ized the neces.
sity of making n good beg:nning "Well begun is
half done" run) the old proverb. The old Roman
pagans t hought beg nning~ or such great importunce
that they named one of theil' deities, the god
THE GLEANER
Janus . a5 special patron of all beginningJ. We
who are Christians and Catholics place our beginn'ngl
in the hands of God Who is our "Alpha and
Omega." With trusting heart'! we tilm to Him
now at the beginning of our school year and pray;
"Lord, now I take the Fut ure's out'!tretched hand,The
rond ~ee lll S straight that leads to her Htrange
land
But w..h at dim turninga wa:t. Lord, Thou canat ~
And I, un.eeing, trust t hey turn to Thee."
H. H., '34.
Euc haris tic Con gress
"0 Ireland, isn't it grand you look
Like a bride in her rich adornin'?
And with all the pent-up love of my heart
I Lid you top 0' the mornin'!"
Like hom ing pigeons t hronged Ireland'lI farflung
children for the Thirty-fi rst International
El:chari:; t 'c Congress held in Dublin t his put June.
Swelling the agg-I'egation were thousands of pil.
grimj from other countries r epr esenting in all
more than forty nation!!. What an awesome
a ,lIemblage of people! And why did they come!
They came,--oh, how glorious it is to !lOy it!they
came to venerate the Holy Eucharillt. It
,;eems hardly credible in this century with religious
bel'eh in chaotic upheaval that so many people
coll('{'ted in one place to give honor and glory to
God.
Whllt a di<play of Christian faith and p:ety these
mOre thlln /I million worshippeu pre ~ented! Io' rom
,.It cor neri of the world they came to participate
in ceremonIes familiar to every Catholic. The
more one ponders t his stupendou~ fact, t he more
one reali~C11 the deep· rooted necessity of the
manifestation of religion.
Partici pants of that Congreu have said that the
enthus'um there was unpr('{'edented. Every man,
womlln and child responded to each occaaion with
'- fervor and ex ultation that was remarkable. For
that week the Church in all her splendor and
d'gn:ty gathered her diven children around her
and ministered unto them.
This demonst ntion is certainly an example of
the power and stability of t he Catholic Church.
Sueh a Congreu points to the intelligence of her
leaders. The hierarchy, I believe, is the best
educllted group of men in the world. The Catholic
program of education is designated to reach t he
child, the youth, the young woman and the young
m1ln. Her educationHI in stitutions are being recognize:!
more euh day as definitely sane and cultural
centen of learning. Nor can the world forget or
ignore the v.' t numbers of wOmen who !aerifice
t he:r lives to teach othel"$. The inestimable worth
:If their work Ii readily conceded. At present,
3S well a ) In the past, the Catholic is urged to be
e'ther an intelligent leader or an intelligent cooperative
follower in every field of human en·
deavor.
It is difficult to put in to words the marvel, the
magn~ ficenc~ of the spectacle such a ferve nt gath·
ering of people ]/Tesented to the world. During
that week of June, Dublin was t he cynosure of all
nations and all peoples. I wonder whether t he
· ignificance of it all really penetrated. D:d the
world l:ee through the eeremoniel, inspiring and
ed'fying n they were! I like to think that be·
Cllu,e of the Congress many errant £Ouls were
reunited to the Church; that even wilful soull
bowed down in joyouS humility. I like to visualize
that Congreu at Dublin as a powerful searchlight
p!!netrating the height! and depths of life and
exp03ing the violators and infringers of God's law;
as a giant magnet attracting all peoples ; and as
a m'raculou8 spring strengthen:ng and heaUng
mllnk:n!!.

Friendships
Unknowingly, perhaps, as we
trip blithely down the pathway of
our college years, we are forming
associations which will endure
throughout our enti re livn. Only
once in our lifetime, during our
!chool days, are we given in just
the same way that unhurried op·
portunity to make friends.
The dawning of a new year
again brings with it a ho~t of
strange faces. College seems an
alien land during the first few
getting-acquainted daYB. Soon,
however, with the casual com·
raderie of youth, the barriers are
cast ruthlessly allide and the blur
of faces evolves into individ ual
personalities,-<:harming, ]Ileasing
penonalitiell.
Out of the ma~e of general
good·will and affectionate commun:
on two people turn to each
other and say "friend." There
may be times in the year! which
lie ahead when we will look at
friendship in the li",ht of bitter
disillusionment, and scoff, when
even those close attachments
which seemed so very real and
inviolable to u, in our college
days, will fade into unl·ea1itie~.
Let us anticipate such a diMppo:
ntment by learning early to
differentia te between "friend" and
"acquaintance."
In the rush of activities and
whir of duties into which we will
be $ummarily t hrust at the end of
our college dsys, we will find no
surplus of time for the founding
of deep and la~ ting frie n dshi p ~.
Now in the daily intimades, the
cheerful give-and·take, the happ)'
comradeship of inter-cla" and i .....
tracle!s associations, we lire sow'
ing lIeedll which. please God, will
mature into pure, unselfish friend·
ships.
It ill a beautiful trust to be a
friend; it is a glorious honor to
have a friend. God .cems to
IItretch down His hand to you to
help you over the rough spots
th rough t he medium of a friend.
With Emenon we may !ay: "Many
there be who call themselvH our
friends; yet ah, if heaven sends
one, only one, so mated to our
Bo ul, to make our halt a whole,
rich beyond price are we."

den ~ decreed it 60. fo r the " IU"CS,
ervation of Wild Life in this Col.
lege." Naturally. the hunting
wu more inten$c than heretofore.
T uc3day morning the licl!n ~ed
hunlers dC$Ccnded upon the hunting
grounds, armed to the teeth
with fiendish wcapon!l-fem:nine
ingenu;ty, lind an intenM! desire
to prove their skill. The prey,
marked wilh the brand of the
green hair-ribbon lind nllme p:acard,
lIOught refuge oohind leavel
of book~ lind trees. Routed thence,
and rebranded with the mark of
the coiffure or r eversed dreu , they
weTe again turned into the lie!d.
For t hree days excitement rlln
high. indian_like, the hunten
stalked their quarry in woods lind
library, cafeteria and Btudyindian_
like, they pounced upon
them; to rtured them; lulled them
into a deceptive Bense of sc<:ur:ty
and freedom, which was immedi_
ately d: srupted by renewed feroc_
ity in the chasc. The Game War_
dens stood aloof- interfering only
at some gross infringement of
hunting rules, by hunter or
huntee.
On the third day the hunten
held their lut camp. The game,
bagged at last, a nd herded together,
cowered in fear at the
front of the Assembly. To supplant
the usual exchange of stories: "I
almost got one thlll big- but she
got away," each Diana brought
forth and exploited her spedal
booty.
Some of the game, as yet untamed,
",nllpped at their trllineu
with woeful futility. Their pathetic
nttempts were overlooked a8
vain effortl to regain life and
!' \)erty .... ithout a total loss of
dignity.
Finally the humanitarian instinct
prevlliled: the hunt wa~
endcd. The victims, IItill dazed,
were led forth from the scene
of their subJugstion; fed by their
per!ecuton; and sent back into
the forest of education wh ~ch once
more offe red "Green fields and
putures new" to their weary feet.

Discusses Catholic Action
It was the great privilege and
pleasure of the faeulty and student
body of Nazareth College on
the afternoon of September 2ll, to
hear the Reverend Edward Garesche,
S. J ., widely known as an
aut hOl", artist and leader of
Catholic movements everywhere.
Father Garesche ehose as his
topic for discussion " The Field
Before UI," Catholie Action,
which can be Bummed up in the
words of Pius XI, "the ]>art of the
laity in the apostalate of the hierarchy."
He showed U3 how important
a part Catholic $tudent..!
ean play in the furthering of
Catholic Action. We have valu_
able means in our hands for disseminating
Catholic idcnls a nd
culture. Through .lipreading Catholic
literature, creative writing,
social service work, lind aid to the
miS!!ions, we can do a tremendous
amount of good towards Ihis great
work, advocated nnd cherished by
o ur Holy Fnther.
A leader himself in Catholic
Action, Father Garesche is acquain
ted with every phase of the
great work in a practical way.
He hiS been actively engaged in
the work of the Catholic Pr eS!! as
as!!ociate editor of "America,"
editor of "Hospital Progre3ll," and
founder and fint editor of the
"Queen's Work," the organ of the
Sodality. He is the founder of
the Sodality Movement in the
United States. Here in our own
city he started it in Ill16. lie be_
came aequainted with European
phases of Catholic Action in
fo'rance. In Rome he organized 1\
congreM of 80dalitie$. One of the
most noteworthy examples of hil
aceomplishmenh is t he Federation
of NUl"!lCl! founded by him and ineluding
now s e ven hundred hospitals

hopes in the near future to bring
10 fruition his plan of founding
Catholic club" for young men and
young women cor r e~ponding to

A fte r aU the girls had IIrrivcd

important event took place in the
large reading room of the hotel.
The names of all the F're3hman

caused my terror by looming behind

Do We Appreciate
Music?
Those of U5 who have been a[forded
a nlUsical education along
with our scholastic training can
rightly boast of our good fortune
if we have learned one thing- to
really appreciate music.
Music is an art and to treat it
as such, one must go deeper than
technique or sound. It may be
interpreted, and this "equi res a
wide education, a sympathy with
human nature and power to ap.
preciate the finest details and not
only the extremes of t hings. To
be able to do thia, much time and
atudy must be given to the 8ubject
and it is pr eeisely this which
we Americans of today fail to do.
The musical public of our country
is either too busy or too phlegmatic
to treat music u an art,
and it looks upon it only as an
amusement and a pastime. There
are hundreds of people throughout
t he nation who will ait in a
crowded t heater or concert hall
and listen to a beautiful concert
given by noted artists, but how
many of the~e so-called " music
lovers" would be perfectiy willing
to devote the same amount of
time to reading and to the Bcquir_
ing of an understanding of what
t hey hear! On the part of many
such activi ty would be considered
but a mere waste of time, and it
is here that the great mistake i.
made.
Furthermore, such persona fai l

ment near the bl,lsine!lll se.:: tion. to call on her father. He received
The next morning the headlines her cordially, but mentioned Have we an athletic college!
of thc "Star" blazed with the neither t he outeome of the ele.::. For years we have skipped c\llS!Ies
news of the marriage-"Mil1er
wins opponent's dlll,lghte.r"- a nd
two columns told the Itory.
"How did the pa llen find out
about it so soon!" inqu:red Ellen
JI:ghtly perturbed. The blare of
Lhe headlines had frightened her.
"The license bl,lreau probably
gave it out," her hu sb and
answered. "Yol,l know it doesn' t
take those newspaper men long to
fin d 01,lt important newa. ! wonder
what your fath er il t hinking
now!" Stewart crossed the room
and put his arma nround his ~mall,
child .. like wi fe. -"We have noth ..
ing to worry about, dear," he said
reassuringly.
Stewart was so wonderfu l t hat
Ellen fel t safe and happy with
him. "Why does Father obje.:: t ,"
iShe wondue(]. " I'll bet if Mothe ..
were alive ahe wouldn't. Everyone
says t hat I am like her."
The evening papen carried, in
addition, a comment by Mr. Regan
to the effect that he would not let
business, political or commercial,
interfere with his dal,lghter 's happiness.
"How wonderfl,ll 0 a d i !,"
mused Ellen. She ran happily to
Stewart to show him the paper.
According to him , it was but 11
measure neceMary to save publi ...
opinion. Ellen sl,lpposed thnt he
was right, but her heart still felt
warmed by her father's kindness.
They had been married a week,
and Ellen had heard no word f rom
him. He knew where she llvcd
:1 he wanted to call her. Through
the pre!S!l she kept bl,lsily informed
about his speeches.
ElectioM were very near now.
Mr. Regnn was offering his preyious
terms of honesty, integrity
and competence as basi. for re·
election. Miller was r unning on
the principle t hat yOl,lnger lind
more efficient men with modern
views were needed to meet the
critical conditions of the day.
Each Will! fighting hard to win thc
position.
An accol,lnt of one of Stewart',
speeches carne to Ellen's atten ..
tio n. In it he had made the assertion
t hat he had won Regan'a
dal,lghter and he could win the
office of City Comptroller as well .
This disturbed her, and she told
Stewart t hat she thol,lght their
marriage should ha"e been left
out of the campaign. He, how ..
ever, ex plained that his party was
rl,lnning the campaign and any ..
thing uid or done in it was to
aid him in securing the office.
Ellen let the matter drop.
Miller's word~ proved bl,lt a
prophecy, for November th1rd
tions or her marriage. This visit
gave he .. neither satisfnction nor
rellef. If only her father had
scolded and lectl,lred her, she could
have ta lked to him freely, but the
blot on her happinesl had not been
removed.
Ellen lived ql,lietly and simply.
She preferred to do her own
hOl,lsework s nd eX lleriment with
dainty dishes a nd appeti~ing
meals. She needed something to
oecl,lpy her time while Stewart was
10 busy.
Sundays, Ellen got I,Ip for early
MaS!!. While Stewart disapproved
he made no attempt to stop he r.
It seemed so unnecessary for her
to get I,Ip early the one morning
she cOl,lld stay in bed and rest. At
first Ellen answered his objections
with explanations, but her elrorts
alwnys proved f l,llile 10 she
lal,lghed al his ndmonitions.
On J anunry firat Stewart en·
tered I,Ipon his new p03ition . Now
he brought home new friends,
men and women, wh03e manners
and conversat ion seemed puzzling,
and, at times, almost rude. Never ..
theless, Ellen always played the
gracious h oste~s; these men were
importl\nt busineu friends of
Stewart's, and she realized the
obligations his office entailed.
Stewart's work kept him very
bl,lsy, extending often in to evening
meetings at hi. cl l,lb. There ..
fore, Ellen was alone much of the
time, but aa Stewart had assured
her many times, as soon as he became
accustomed to his work, it
wOl,lld not be so hard or take up
so ml,lch time. Ellen made henelf
content with her home in planning
fo r and beal,ltifying it.
Her father never called nt the
apartment, bl,lt Ellen went home
e,·ery week. Mr Regan was alwaY'!
kind and fatherly toward
her, although they never talked of
the matter which was closest to
their hearts.
The following summer Stewart
rented a summer home on Ontowa
Lake about forty miles from town.
Ellen had never bean so happy in
her life. Every day was packed
with t h r i I I a and excitement.
Stewart said her adventures in
the wnter were compared to
Johnny Weisml,leller'a. At night
they danced at the ~o untry cl ub
where they made many new
friends. Soon young people were
running in and out of t heir cottage
M freely a ~ though they were
life .. long friends.
All too soon their vacation was

Ellen . She knew little of what
Stewart wall doing, but hi. business
was keeping him more and
more away from home. He dined
more frequeutly with hia business
colleagues. He explaiued to Ellen
that JOon he expected to have
more time fo r pleu ure and he
would make up for all hi. neglect.
They would go everywhere, have
her old fri ends in for dinner , and
live a8 they had often plann ed to
do.
They celebrated their "'edding
annive"ary quietly. A new home,
awaiting only hu approval Willi to
be Ellen'a present. The houllC was
in II suburb a few mile. outllide
the city. It was a white shingled
house built in colonial style and
trimmed with green blinds. A
spaeioull yard with a rock garden
in the rear aud shrubbery in the
front took t he appearance of newness
away.
It w.u not long belore Ellen
had converted the new house into
a cozy home. She was capable
beyond her years. In this new
home, three months later, E llen '~
baby, Maureen, wall born. The
world Willi perfed now- almost
too perfect. Even her father was
happy, but he looked extremely
aged. However, this was over·
shadowed by aupreme happineSll.
Caring lor the baby took $0
much ol Ellen's time that Stewart'.
coming home less and leu went
unnoticed. Her lather called one
night and when Stewart failed to
come home was very much upset.
Ellen explained that he had to
atay out on business; he WII$
learning itll inll and OUU, hut
1I00n hill apprenticeship would be
over.
Stewart apparently loved hill
daughter but lacked time to devote
to her. He was nervous and
rUn down from over-work and demanded
quiet the few nighu he
Will! home. All Maureen grew older
and exacted more attention, his
irritability increased, ~o Ellen
kept Maureen away as much as
possible.
Their preparations fo r spending
the month of Augu$l at the
lake were shattered by a ludden
disclosure of a deficit in the city
finances. Ellen's father told her
about it and advised her not to
worry because everything was
being done to discover where t he
mistake lay.
Ellen dazed by the shock could
not comprehend the dreadfulnCSII
ol the crime. Stewart a t hief_
someone had made a terrible mis·
take--he had been work ing so
hard for her and the bilby-it
couldn't be--it wasn't true. She
begged her Cather to take her to
llee him and he would explain how
the blunder had happened. Heluctantly
her fat her consented.
"You shouldn't have come here,
Ellen," Stewart told her as he
loosened her arms from around his
neck.
"I had to come, Stewart, ~o you
could tell me that you didn't s teal,
that you lire more hon eat than
those people who 1I.1·e IIccu3ing
you. Oh, how I hate them!"
"Don't worry, dear, it will soon
be over and we can take the vacation
we planned and forget all
about this stupid error. Why
Stewart, wh--." Hia drooped
head . topped her. " Why don't
you talk to me, Stewart? Stewart,
what i~ the matter!"
"Anything I could tay, Ellen,
would only hurt you more. You
shouldn't have come,"
With dry, turbulent eyes, ahe
stared at her husband unbelievingly
liS a guard escorted him
from t he room.
The . tate audita" found the
defi cit to be $25,000. Stewart
with three accomplices, in apite of
all elTorU, was indicted and sen·
tenced to fifteen yean in State's
prison.
Ellen was unable to appt'lIr at
the trial, nor did she aee Stewart
after her lint vbit to the prison
Incredibly soon ahe recovered
from the IIhock. If only the baby
weren't so young, ahe thought,
but dushed the idea from her
mind. She wouldn't ~hirk.
Her father invited her to come
home to live. but she refUllCd, and
he had already learned the uselessnesl
of trying to urge her.
Unregrettingly she offered her
comfortable hQme for lIale and
took a cheap apartment in the
city. It contained one bedroom, a
living room, and a kitchenette.
She put the baby's crib in the bedroom
and used a day bed in the
living room for henel! . She had
auctioned all of her furniture and
received u s ufficient amount to enable
her to keep her apartment
with ease.
It waa not long before ahe had
aecured a position in the interiol'
decorating department of a large
furniture store. During the day
a nurse maid cared for Maureen,
and at night Ellen WR! lIatisfier!
to atay at home, for there were
many thing!! which needed her attention,
SundaYII Ellen and t he baby
spent with Mr. Regan. Sunday
dinner was the greatest pleasure
of Ellen's week. Tired of eating
in her own small apartment, her
father' . home was a real t rea t.
Advancement came fast to
Ellen. She was capable and sure
of hernll. The income as head
of her department empowered her
to purchalle a home and have a
reliable woman to help her with
the baby.
Ellen was unlike her father. He
was easily pen uaded to come and
make hi. home wi th her. She was
happy again-but this was a
1 e cur e happiness.--a happiness
