Model Reclaimed Fail Wardrobes What Goes On... Reclaimed and remodelled clothing was the order of the day at a wartime fash ion show presented by the students of the home economics department in the tea room on Dec. 3. Patricia Herbert and Barbara Thomp son introduced the students who modelled suits, dresses and formats. Barbara Ann F'rick provided the music.

One hundred and fifty students were enrolled in the Living Cross, following the reception of candidates into the So dality by the Reverend Martin I. Carra- bine, S.J.. on Dec. 3. The idea of fellowship in the Mystical Body is familiar, but the organization of the Living Cross is a new way of mani festing it. Begun last year and carried on through the medium of the high schools and colleges, the movement is fast becoming nationwide and spreading to every age-group. The purpose of the Living Cross is threefold: to pray for someone special in the armed forces, to pray for all work ing and fighting in this war, and to pray for a just and lasting peace. The Living Cross is organized under military names. The highest stratum is the Victory Legion whose members at tend Mass daily, spend one-half an hour a day in meditation or spiritual reading, and say Prime or Compline every day. Next is the Defense Legion which requires Mass three times a week and 20 min utes of meditation a day. The Auxiliary Corps asks its members for weekly Mass and Communion, one real sacrifice a day, and 10 minutes of meditation. Mem bership in the Victory and Defense units also takes for. granted participation in Civilian Defense activity or, at least, pur chase of War Bonds and Stamps. The Sodality reception, which closed with Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament, was attended this year by the entire student body and was held at a general assembly period. Angela Voller and Jane Claire Brown played organ accompaniments.
