Mmgret <strong>College</strong><br />

I<br />
Among <strong>the</strong> anniversary occasions<br />
which occur this year, <strong>the</strong>re are some<br />
to which we should like to refer here.<br />
We join in congratulating <strong>the</strong> Redemptorist<br />
Fa<strong>the</strong>rs on <strong>the</strong> occasion of <strong>the</strong><br />
celebration of <strong>the</strong> Centenary of <strong>the</strong><br />
Arch-Confraternity of <strong>the</strong> Holy Family<br />
at Mount St. Alphonsus, Limerick. We<br />
also extend our good wishes to <strong>the</strong><br />
Society of St. Columban (Maynooth<br />
Mis2ion to China) on <strong>the</strong> occasion of its<br />
Golden Jubilee (1918-'68).<br />
As last year's <strong>Mungret</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> was<br />
published in September, and <strong>the</strong> <strong>1968</strong><br />
<strong>Annual</strong> comes out in June, this year's<br />
number covers a shorter period. It<br />
deals with school activities only up to<br />
<strong>the</strong> Easter vacation; but it includes <strong>the</strong><br />
Report of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> General Meeting<br />
of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Mungret</strong> Union, which was held<br />
shortly after Easter. O<strong>the</strong>r news of<br />
<strong>Past</strong> Students is to be found in <strong>the</strong><br />
special news sheet <strong>the</strong> <strong>Mungret</strong> Eagle,<br />
of which issues appeared at Christmas<br />
and Easter.<br />
We again express thanks to Fa<strong>the</strong>r<br />
Rector for his generosity, encouragement<br />
and advice in connection with <strong>the</strong><br />
production of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Annual</strong>, to all <strong>the</strong><br />
members of <strong>the</strong> Community for <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
co-operation, and especially to Mr.<br />
Godfrey O'Donnell, who acted as business<br />
assistant. We also wish to record<br />
our appreciation of <strong>the</strong> work of Mr. R.<br />
O'Keeffe and associates of <strong>the</strong> Irish<br />
Pictorial Engraving Co., Ltd., Dublin,<br />
in <strong>the</strong> making of blocks; and of Mr. J.<br />
A. O'Donovan and staff of <strong>the</strong> Limerick<br />
Leader Ltd. in <strong>the</strong> printing and production.<br />
