was to be added to the convent. With the increasing school enrolment the staff likewise had been increased and the convent needed much more space. A new chapel and more sleeping quarters became an urgent need. Many delays in the delivery of necessary materials kept the carpenters from advancing more quickly, but there was great satisfaction in knowing that these conscientious and excellent workmen could be depended upon entirely. Another fine workman, who can¬ not fail to be remembered, was Jerome Peters , a neighbor and general handiman. His personal interest and devotedness all through the years were admirable. He could always be relied upon not only in his regular work but in any emergency; in one such instance he saved the convent from what might have been a destruc¬ tive fire. On April 11,1950, the new wing was entirely completed. The lovely chapel and the additional rooms will stand as a testimonial to the untiring and utterly unselfish dedication of Sister St . Margaret of Paray. In August of that year the Sisters heard that Sister St . Margaret was unexpectedly called to Charlottetown to take charge of Notre Academy . The extracurricular work in the school and parish will relate some of Sister's accomplishments for the benefit of Stella Maris . The Sisters then welcomed another great woman in the person of Sister St . Hildebert ( Annie White ) who succeeded Sister St . Margaret. For the past thirteen years Sister had been Dean of Women at . Bernard College, Antigonish, Nova Scotia . Less than a week after her arrival she was already working hard in the interests of the school. An interview which she held with the Superintendent of Education resulted in having Grade Eleven as a class by itself, provided that there were at least twelve pupils in the class. In order to accomplish her purpose the Sisters decided to take student boarders and there were three that first year. Sister St . Mary Eugenia ( Louise Gallant ) continued as principal of the school while sharing with Sister St . Hildebert ( Annie White ) different subjects in Grades XI and X. Apart from the blessings already mentioned another great one was the arrival of Sister Lillian Blacquiere ( Sister Benoit des Agnes) who was welcom¬ ed with open arms. She was loved and appreciated as the first Sister cook at the convent. In December, 1950, Sister St . Catherine of Louvain returned from Montreal where she had spent five months recovering from illness. After that Sister taught music only, with as many as twenty-eight piano students, and con¬ tinued as church organist and directress of the girls' choir. In September of that year we were fortunate to obtain the services of Sister St . Elizabeth, one of the Music teachers at St . Joseph's Convent, in Charlotte- 50
