tZ -O ' Paqe One 1 LA LUMIERE Ulialuip’n 14ausr 51 Corral trrrt annum, Arizona 0 0 the (graduates of Saint Joseph’s Jlcadem Prescott, Arizona, A. D. 1927 It seems strange that the end of a young man or woman's school days should be called Commencement Day, and yet the reason of this is clear, for the young graduate has not finished his career. He is only beginning. He is just commencing to make use of the knowledge he has been acquiring, and on the way he lines up to true principles in the world he is entering, shall depend the measure of his success. Qenerally speaking, the world counts success by the amount of power, honor, or wealth a man may possess; but history and our own experience teach us other- wise, and show us that the world's standard of what constitutes real success in life is wrong, for they give us too many sad examples of men whose lines were richly en- dowed with power, honor, and wealth, and yet were failures. If your careers are going to be successful ones, you must remember that mere material things, how- ener necessary they may be, are short-lined and should nener be regarded as more than means to a noble end. In enery true man and woman there must be found something higher, nobler, and holier, that shall line for eternity, and that is fidelity to duty IDhen a man has lined his life and it can be truly said of him that all his actions were characterized by honest effort, by fidelity to duty- duty to Qod, his fellow-man, and his country that man, and he only, has achiened success. He may have died poor, unwept, and unhonored, as many a brane soldier has, but his deeds shall be eternal, cfo be a success, then, means primarily to be men and women of duty, and to be this, you must hane principles to guide you in your relationship with Qod and your fellow-man. Ifou must be intellectually conuinced that a certain line of action is right and then this conviction must pass beyond your lips by influencing and governing the actions of your lines. Strength of will is at the bottom of real character, and virtue, without which life is worthless. 11?e take this occasion of extending our heartiest congratulation, and of wish- ing you the highest success in life success that shall merit eternal friendship with Qod in Heaven, for to each one of you He speaks today;— Esto fidelis usque ad mortem et dabo tibi coronam vitae. (Apol. 11-10). Devotedly yours in Christ, DANIEL J. QERCKE. bishop of Tucson, Page Two Page Three LA LUMIERE RIGHT REVEREND MONSIGNOR GERARD February 2nd, 1927. “Time has had power to wither him and bozv And set a claimant seal upon his brow, But daily at the altar when he stands And knows his God to lie within his hands He feels again within his breast the glow Of fires that on a morning long ago Swept him to rapture. Though upon his head The garnered glories of his years are shed, Time has no more dominion over him He shares the bright youth of the seraphim.” For the first time in Arizona's history a Golden Sacerdotal Jubilee was celebrated today, when the Diocese of Arizona, and especially the Catholics of Prescott, most fittingly observed the fiftieth anniversary of the ordination of the Reverend Edward Gerard. The fact that Father Gerard was ordained fifty years ago today in Tucson, Arizona, and spent the half-hundred years of his priestly missionary career in this State, made the occasion so much more memorable. The comprehensive program for the festivity, arranged by Father Felician Payas, C.M.F., pastor of Sacred Heart Church, and Father Paul Neil P rennan, of Whipple Barracks, was splendidly carried out. Father Gerard was born at Bruz, near Rennes, little Brittany, France, on July 19th, 1852. He made his first studies for the priesthood in the Eudist College at Rennes and his superior studies in the Diocesan Seminary of the. same city. He was ordained Sub-Deacon in June, 1876, by the Cardinal of Rennes, and in September of the same year came to Arizona at the request of the then Bishop of the Arizona Territory, Rt. Rev. J. B. Salpointe. Bishop Salpointe ordained him Deacon on Christmas, 1876, and Priest on February 2nd, 1877. In July of the same year Father Gerard was sent to Florence, Arizona, as assistant priest under Father A. Echallier and soon afterward replaced him as pastor. During his administration at Florence, he attended the then small towns of Tempe, Phoenix and Globe, where there was no resident priest. He built the first Catholic Churches in Phoenix and Tempe. He started in the old Church of Florence a parochial school and built a new and substantial Church. In 1885 he was sent to Silver City, New Mexico, to replace Father Bourgarde, who had been appointed Bishop of the Diocese. He remained there for four years. In 1889 Father Gerard was sent to Tucson, Arizona, with the appoint- ment of Vicar General of the Diocese and Rector of the Cathedral, and he served in that capacity ten years under Bishop Bourgarde and ten years more under Bishop Granjon. In 1909, on account of failing health, he retired to Silver City, New Mexico, as Chaplain of the Sisters Hospital and Academy until 1914, when he came to Prescott in the same capacity.

Rev. Daniel J. Gercke, D.D., Bishop of Tucson. This magnificent ceremony was held in the natural stadium formed by the ruins of centuries — old adobe buildings and walls which constitute the National monument of Casa Grande. The special occasion was the first annual Arizona State Pageant held in the same stadium on Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings before a combined audience of 12,000 people. This spectacular drama of historical events in Arizona during the Indian, Span- ish and pioneer days was produced by Arizona citizens from fifteen towns under the direction of the Arizona Pageantry Association for the purpose of encouraging education by means of pageantry. The six interesting historical scenes, artistic- ally portrayed, fully realized the aims of the pageant’s promoters. The important part played by Catholics in the early history of Arizona was faithfully shown in several scenes of the pageant, especially those referring to Fray Marcos de Niza, the Franciscan explorer, who entered the present confines of Arizona in 1539, and to the Jesuit missionary, Father Kino, who said Holy Mass in these same ruins in 1694. These historical facts suggested to the officials of the pageant the appropriateness of having a Pontifical High Mass celebrated at the ruins. An altar was erected on the highest elevation of the natural stage and was tastefully deco- rated with flowers and candles. On the Gospel side a throne was placed for the Bishop. The following Franciscan Fathers assisted His Lordship: Father Celes- tine, arch-priest; Father Augustin and Father Antonine, deacons of honor; Father Felix and Father John Joseph, deacon and subdeacon. The Rev. Victor R. Stoner of Tucson acted as master of ceremonies. The Indian choir of Santan Mission, composed of Pima men and women, sang the four-voiced ‘‘F.cce Sacei- dos Magnus” while His Lordship, the Rt. Rev. Bishop Gercke was vesting at the altar. The Mission choir of All Saints parish, Tucson, sang the “Kyrie.” and “Gloria”1 whilst the rest of the Mass was sung by the Indian choir. At the conclusion of the Mass the Rt. Rev. Bishop addressed words of appre- ciation to the large gathering, which was estimated at from 800 to 1000 persons. He congratulated the sponsors of the pageant on the gratifying success of tlm venture to enlighten the people of Arizona regarding the State’s early history and urged ajl to avoid the pitfalls of irreligion and to remain faithful to the divine teachings of the Savior.—Arizona Observer.

The classical writer — that is, the writer whose work is recognized as a faithful portrait of human experience, as an object of intrinsic and surpassing beauty and as an original contribution to the philosophy of living—is necessarily endowed in a high degree with the faculty of expression. He probably knows life better than we do and sympathizes with it more keenly; but his distinctive trait is that he is articulate, that he is able to tell what he knows and to record what he feels. He transmits a significant mes- sage “along the slender wires of speech.”—From Religion and the Study of Lit- erature, by Brother Leo. r$Fr 4 Page Twenty-Six LA LUMIERE Homely Epirtuals By Rev. Hugh F. Blunt, LL.D. 'giGr T. V I never hear of a divorce without shuddering at the unnecessary tragedy of it. I think of the earnest wooing, the mutual choice of those two out of all the possibilities of the world, the raptures of love, oftentimes the years of confidence, the sinking of one’s self in the other, friendship at its highest—love—and then to end in this ribald smashing of the shrine, the attacks and counter-attacks, the appeal to the courts, the ache for freedom from cursed bonds once deemed so blessed, and the perversion of love to hate. It hardly seems possible that man could invent such a horror as this. Yet all of it is traced back to some little misunderstanding or forgetfulness of each one’s duty to the other, distrust, or, in one word, the consideration of self alone. Impatient QYees Trees grow Nearer to the sky, And so Do you and I. Nearer every day; so we Grow toward God, too, eagerly. But, because we long to grow Faster, faster, it seems slow, Our walk to God.

Music Notes The music department is divided into two classes, senior and junior pupils. On St. Cecelia’s Day a music recital, the first of the year's series, was given. The minimum for practicing is one hour and the maximum three hours. Lessons are given twice a week. The aim of this department, primarily, is to develop in all students an excellent technique and also a thorough understanding of the theory of music. Memory work is very essential and the pupils are required to render their se- lections from memory. In the latter part of May, a piano recital was given by Miss Ella Burgett. She was ably assisted by Miss Mary White, Misses Mildred Johnson and Jean Winter. V 7 $7T hv $7 I §■ S- § m '•If • A ff •Ht I m II !

Act 1 (As curtain rises Lavine, reading a book, is sitting at left side of stage, partly hidden by the davenport. Three girls entei rear right door; they do not see Lavine.) “Isn’t the howling of the wind gruesome, a fitting sound for Hallow- e’en.” “Yes, it’s just a night for ghosts, haunted houses, and---” “Oh! Be s-s-s-still. the v-v-v-very th-th-thought o-of th-h-th-them m-m-m-makes me st-st-st-stu-t-t-ter!” (Enter Dorothy, rear door, very excited.) “Girls, oh, girls, would you like to go to a haunted house and look for a treasure? Would you?” “How far is it?” “W-w-w-here?” “And when?” First, it’s about a mile from here---” “That old two-story ramshackly house on Whipple-Drive.' “Yes, that’s it. And they say if one goes there at midnight, one is sure to see the ghost of the old miser who returns to his hidden treasure every year, at the same place and hour. And, girls, don’t be afraid when you see the furniture all covered with white sheets.” “Is the house really h-h-h-haunted?” “Yes; but don’t tell the other Seniors. You see, we arc new here and they always domineer over us. Let’s do this without their knowing about it.” “Then we shall all meet in the Masons’ graveyard at 10:30, armed with picks and shovels.” “And a flashlight----!” “A-a-and d-d-don’t forget the e-e-eats.” (Girls exist laughing.) (Looks around, and then rises.): “Ha! ha! here come the ancients. Wait until I tell them of the brave new Seniors’ plan. Ha! ha! I’m glad I smothered that sneeze while they were here.” (Sneezes) (Enters rear door, seeing no one, counting apple-seeds.) “One I love, two I love, three I love, I say; four, I love with all my heart, and five, I cast away. (Sees Lavine and stops.) Oh!” “Why the chuckles, are we really so funny.'” “Are you girls in for a little devilment and a feed besides?” “Are we? Just lead us on!” “All we have been doing for the last hour is sing— chorus). Oh, we wish we had something to amuse us. something to do on Hallowe’en, for we are all so lonesome------” (Interrupting) “Really, girls, the music is wonderful, but I have a plan that will make us think.” “Think! Is it possible? Think.you?” “Since these er—er-----” “Seniors, if you please—” Gladys: Irene: Ethel: Dorothy: Irene: Ethel: Gladys: Dorothy: Irene: Dorothv: Ethel: Dorothy 1rene: (Iladvs: Ethel: Lavine: Monica: Alice: Lavine: All: Mariely: Lavine: Ella: Monica: Alice: •Hr •Hr •$r h$t •Hr Hr Hr Hr H Hr -H- •Hr Page Thirty-Three IA LUMIERH .• t w Monica: “-----Seniors, have stopped showing their wit and talent I’d like to hear of the fun.” Lavine: “It’s this way: The new Seniors are planning on going to a haunted house which is supposed to hold a treasure left there by an old miser, whose ghost is to reappear tonight.” Mariely: “And I suppose the sillies have planned to go there to hunt the treasure.” Lavine: “I thought it would be a good idea to go to the house about 10:00 o’clock; it’s only 8:15 now, so let’s hurry and get things fixed up. We’H scare the poor dears to death.” Ella: (Laughing.) “I hope they don’t forget to bring the lunch.” Monica: “I received three letters today and was so busy reading them I did not have time to eat.” Ella: “I’ve never yet received a letter that in any way interfered with my appetite.” Monica: “Let’s hurry and get the paraphernalia ready.” (All make their exits hurriedly.) Act 11 (Stage is in semi-darkness—a room of the haunted house. Girls enter rear back door, laughing and saying “sh-sh-sh-sh-shss.” They carry white sheets. Lavine fixes sheets around herself. Ella lies on sofa (left front), is covered with another sheet. Mariely stands wrapped in sheet on left side of piano. Alice stands like a hat rack beside white-covered armchair. (Right front) Monica occupies chair left front and is covered so as not to be seen. There is a white-covered table in center. Candles unlit lie on the covered piano.) Alice: (Hearing voices, whispers loudly) “Ssssh! Here they come.” Monica: “Have you the eats!” Mariely “Be still, you glutton!” Ella: “Ssh-ssh!” Alice: (Giggle.) (Ethel enters with flashlight, left door; plays light here and there. The door slams.) Ethel: “D-d-d-d-did I h-h-h-hear something?” Irene: “Yes, you heard the slamming of the door and the thumping of your heart against your floating ribs. Ugh!” Gladys: “What’s that?” Irene: “I must have swallowed a cobweb or two!” Gladys: “The latest Owl special, ‘Cobweb Stew a la Bat.’ (Flashes light around the room. “Laying all jokes aside, this room does give me the creeps.” Ethel: “I’m g-g-g-getting out o-of h-h-h-herc-----!” (Goes toward door.) Irene: “Here, give me the lunch; I'll put it here. (Goes to table, table falls with a crash. Girls scream.) Dorothy: “Just a spooky old table.” Gladys: “What a relief. I’m rather tired; guess I’ll sit down.” (Sits on chair containing Monica.) “Oh! I think the chair moved!” Irene: “What an imagination!” Page Thirty-Four I. A I.UMIERF. «T Dorothy: ((Turns to piano and sees Mariely’s form swaying). “Oh-Oh-Oh!” Irene: “Another scaredy cat!” Ethel: I g-g-guess I’ll s-s-s-sit down.” (Ghost on sofa moves and groans loudly. Ethel screams and clutches Gladys; both girls cling together at right of stage. Ella (ghost on sofa) rises as weird music plays. Other ghosts sway. She dances near the two sobbing girls; then across front of stage and back to place. Each ghost dances in turn. As ghost back of large chair returns to place, all ghosts proceed to center of the stage and wave arms until Monica in chair rises. She goes to sofa, throws off sheet and laughs. Ethel, throwing flashlight on hand of Monica, sees large engagement ring, which she recog- nizes.) Ethel: I-I-I-I d-d-d-didn’t k-k-k-know g-g-g-ghosts wore en-en-engagement r-r-r-rings.” Gladys: “It’s Monica!” (Other girls grab the ghosts.) Ethel: “It's Mariely.” Irene: “It’s Lavine!” Dorothy: “Why, it’s Alice and Ella!” Ella: “We give up on one condition: that you share the lunch.” Dorothy: “How did you know we were coming here?” Lavine: “I overheard your conversation in the Loggia, and we planned to scare you.” Gladys: “Well, your plans certainly proved to be a success.” Mariely: (Looks around.) “Let’s have the lunch. I’d hate to search this house tonight without a squad of policemen.” (Girls fix the lunch on the table.) Gladys: “Isn’t that pie delicious looking!” F.thel: “Sandwich?” Dorothy: (Sitting in armchair, right; Alice on arm of chair.) “Don't forget us!” Ella: “These sandwiches are good.” Lavine: “I’m certainly glad I came.” Ella: “Dreaming, Monica?” Monica: “I was just fixing my imagination on that pumpkin pie.” Gladys: “Now, since we’ve eaten sufficiently, let someone tell a story to end the party.” Ethel: “Who-who-who knows one?” Dorothy: “Let Alice. She knows the story of the old miser.” Alice: ’ “Shall I?” All: “Yes, do!” Alice: “The old miser, whose name was Isaac Snyder, died in this very room and house on a Hallowe’en night five years ago.” Ethel: “This-this v-v-v-very r-r-r-room?” Alice: “Yes. Isaac at the age of seven was sent to a boys’ boarding school, where he received mean treatment from the other boys. Being slightly crippled, he was unable to partake in athletics and thus became embittered toward the world. He fell in love with a girl who was above him in social standing. He confessed his love for her. but she scorned him because he had no money. Isaac then determined to horde money, to show his one-time sweetheart and school-mates that he, too, could be wealthy. He Page Thirty-Five LA LIJ M I K K K Vie aki rK O u- . i «$ $£ •fr J .' t - C- 5l r',♦«..5-t.v Ella: Alice: Monica: Alice: Dorothy Ella: Lavine: Song: Alice: All: The Girls: came to this place, bought this house, and lived here alone with an old black cat and his money. One Hallowe’en night Old Isaac came to this table (points to table) to count his gold. The huge black cat sat near his elbow, purring, as each glittering coin clicked on the old table. A knock sounded. The girl who had so haughtily spurned him entered that door. She was no longer beautiful. Getting down on her knees (acts part), she begged the old miser for money, for she was starving. Old Isaac, see- ing only gold, refused the weeping woman and thrust her out into the cold night.” “Did she die?” “Yes, by the old gate through which we entered tonight.” “Henry wouldn’t have done that.” “Now, to go on with my story: Isaac returned to the table to put his horde away. He seemed to see the face of his old love re- flected in each shining coin. As a punishment, he is supposed to return here every Hallowe’en at midnight to count his treas- ure and see the face of his one-time sweetheart.” “What a spooky story!” Yes, especially on this particular night and hour.” “Let’s sing to drive the gloom away.” One night after dark, I saw, ooh, ooh, ooh! Now, mark, ooh, ooh, flying by, flying by, ooh, ooh! A witch with her broomstick, ooh, ooh, ooh! Where did she go, why, don’t you know, to do fleet things, And neater things, and sweetest of sweet things. This gay little witch with her broomstick, For the night, the night, was All Hallowe’en, When good little witches are everywhere seen, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh! Everywhere seen, ooh, ooh, ooh! Everywhere seen, ooh, ooh, ooh!” (Chimes are heard. A clock strikes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. 10, 11, 12. The last stroke of twelve dies away.) “It’s midnight!” (Girls all huddle together in frightened groups. A secret partition opens in the rear wall, and the old miser feebly walks out.) “The miser—ooh!” (Miser goes near fireplace and takes out a huge wooden box. He counts some coins. The girls watch breathlessly. Ail at once a huge ghost jumps from the box and swings in the air.) O-O-O-O-O-OH!” (They run from the room, knocking over chairs.) CUR T A I N I’ve often stopped to wonder At fate’s peculiar ways; For nearly all our famous men Were bom on holidays. “Willie,” said his mother. “I wish you’d run over and see how old Mrs. Brown is this morn- ing.” “Yes’m,” replied Willie, and in a few minutes he returned and reported: “Mrs. Brown says it’s none of your business how old she is.” 7 4 ‘il v - ■4- ■. - ' o m '.-S'. % 1 ! m t v’irr -'A- :, r £3 f$7T i I c« Page Thirty-Six L A L U M I E K E m rK' m ■ fh- 4: M M I rtf- n f- C5' tK‘ .to) There’s a legend, centuries old, By the early Spaniards told, If a sparkling stream that lies Under Arizona skies.

I he feature of the program was a very good two-act play by students of St. Joseph’s Academy, entitled “The Treasure Jaunt.” The theme of the play, which was a Hallowe’en farce, was very interesting and thrilling throughout, leading up to an exciting climax, at which time the “Miser” caused the ghost to rise and scatter the “students” in fright. The play was rendered in a very pleasing manner and showed that the students of St. Joseph’s Academy are well drilled in dramatics and public speaking. Miss Mildred Johnson received much applause in singing an appropriate Hallowe’en song. Dainty little Miss Rose Emmett endeared her- self to all present by her graceful dancing.—Whipple Echo. 1 JL X v v’X «X iX • v 'X vi JAS Page Forty-Nine ’I'-A'i' .v v.

Banquet Honors Uisiting Qirls Purple and gold formed the unusually attractive color scheme of the decora- tions of the banquet table at St. Joseph’s Academy last night, when the twenty- two girls from Prescott’s St. Joseph’s Academy were guests of honor following the afternoon basketball game. A centerpiece of gold chrysanthemums tied with purple tulle was repeated in smaller replicas down the long table, arranged to seat sixty guests. Ferns and purple and gold were used in the room as decora- tion. A three-piece orchestra played during the serving of the dinner and for the dancing after. The guests of honor were taken to San Xavier mission yesterday morning and on returning to town to the University of Arizona. The cars carrying the guests were decorated in the local academy colors, purple and gold. The colors were used with the visiting team’s blue and silver for decoration of the basketball field. Among those for whom covers were laid last night at the banquet were: Rt. Rev. 1). J. Gercke, Misses Genevieve McDermott, Jean Winter, Alice Wa- ters, Mary Koehane, Mary Louise Monaghan, Bernetta Clayton, Helen Sparks, Laura Williams, Irene Williams, Ella Burgett, Agnes Contreras, Margaret Wil- son, Frances Digges, Mary White, Gertrude W'ilcox, Ruth Johnson, Ethel Spence, Marie Eberle, Mildred Johnson, Hilda Balzer, Monica Condron and Gladys Scholey, all of Prescott, and Louise O’Connor (captain), Helen Helsington. Georgette Edgerton, Annie Gonzales, Elsa Timmer and Verdi Myers, of Tucson, and all other high school girls in the school.—Arizona Daily Star. Sc. Joseph’s Academy has as its guests until after Thanksgiving the Prescott St. Joseph’s Academy basketball team and chaperons, who arrived in Tucson yesterday in preparation for the basketball game which will be played this after- noon at 3 o’clock on the academy grounds on South Sixth Avenue.

The Tucson team is com- posed of Louise O’Connor (captain), Helen Heslington, Georgette Edgerton, Annie Gonzales, Elsa Timmer and Verdi Myers.

Prescott St. Joseph’s Academy came home with a 30 to 13 triumph over the Tucson St. Joseph’s Academy in the basketball game played there on Tuesday afternoon. Both teams played good ball, but the locals displayed better team- work. which gave them the lead over their opponents. Excellent sportsmanship on the part of the victor and the vanquished characterized the conduct of the two teams and their followers.—Journal-Miner. Page Sixty-Four L A I. U M !

Weather conditions will govern the time of the game, as the Academy team plays upon an outdoor court here. On Monday the hostesses entertained their guests with a splendid musical re- cital. which met with sincere appreciation and approval on the part of the girls from the North. On Tuesday the Prescott visitors were taken in gaily decorated automobiles for a tour of the city. They visited San Xavier mission, the orphanage, the hospital and the University of Arizona. This sight-seeing journey long will be remem- bered. At the game on Tuesday afternoon there was a large representation from Tucson and every graduate of Prescott St. Joseph’s now attending the Univer- sity of Arizona was at the court for the match. A banquet and dance provided the entertainment for Tuesday night. Lovely decorations in Tucson’s colors were artistically carried out in chrysanthemums on the tables. Guests were presented with corsage bouquets of violets. Bishop Gercke was the principal speaker and there were many appropriate toasts from both teams. The Prescott team, who returned home last night, praised the 1’ucson girls in glowing terms for their cordial hospitality and their unfailing and untiring efforts to entertain their visitors and make them comfortable at all times. They now are making plans to return this greatly appreciated kindness when the return game is played here. All those.connected with St. Josephh’s Academy wish to express their gratitude to the Prescott people who loaned automobiles for the trip. Without this gener- osity the game would have been impossible. The winning team line-up was as follows: Monica Condron (captain), Ethel Spence, center: Gladys Scholey. right center: Marie Eberle. forward; Mil- dred Johnson, forward. Substitutes: Alice Waters. Genevieve McDermid, Helen Sparks. Bernetta Clayton. Miss Genevieve McNally is the coach. Those who attended were: Misses Irene W illiams. Laura Williams. Mary Keo- hane, Mary Louise Monaghan. Katherine Gass, Margaret Wilson, Jean Winter, Agnes Contreras. Gertrude Wilcox. Mary White and Frances Digges. The chaperons were Dr. and Mrs. J. A. ilson. Mr. and Mrs. Contreras of Yuma. Mrs. George Nathman. Miss Helena McEachran and Miss Aileen Powers. —Journal-Miner. An event which will take precedence over any other in the history of St. Joseph’s Academy will be the visit of the basketball team of the Prescott St. Joseph’s Academy. The team, twenty in number, but accompanied by several sisters and numerous parents, will arrive in Tucson Monday by train and auto- mobiles. It will remain through the Thanksgiving holidays, school in both acad- emies being dismissed for the week, the Tucson school holding classes yesterday to make up lost work. Many events have been planned as attending features to the basketball game for Tuesday afternoon at 3 o’clock in the Academy grounds, which is open to the public with a slight charge. There will be a reception and recital Monday eve- ning in the drawing rooms of the school as a compliment to the visitors. 1 he recital will be instrumental and vocal. Following the game Tuesday there will be an elaborate banquet for the high school girls of the local school and for the visiting team. Beautiful decorations and special entertainment will be provided for this lovely event, which is ex- pected to exceed any previously held at the school. Sight-seeing trips will be taken through the city and to the San Xavier mission.—Arizona Daily Star. Page Sixty-Five ftrr Wt: j ir ft± m ftr gjr ftr: ft ftrr ft? ft? ft? ft? ft- ft? ft? ft- ft? ft?

Vice-President................................................Ella Burgett Even with all the changes that have occurred in the present century, a thorough education is still hardly possible without Latin. A student in any English-speaking Nation gets from the study of Latin to no small extent his knowledge of grammar, literary forms, and the meaning of English words, about half of which come from Latin. In that way, from generation to generation, the standards of English have been upheld. If this study should in the future greatly diminish, the English language, stripped of its classical moorings, would be subject to change in a much greater degree than has been the case from Shakespeare’s time to our own day. It might even go the way of late Latin, which had cast loose its Greek moorings and in time become a different lan- guage in the sense that Italian is different from Latin. Already it is becoming difficult to teach English of approved standards to students who lack the lin- guistic foundations laid by the study of the ancient Roman language. —By L. J. Richardson.

De la misma manera subir a la cumbre de la perfeccion de la lengua de Cervantes de deja de tener sus cuestas menos deliciosas, salvando las aridecas de la gramatica y abriendosc uno paso por entre las especuras de innumerables vocables, fraces y dichos. Fue tanto mas una amena oasis cuando pudimos asistir a las atractivas conferendas sobre Sudamerica, particularmente Colombia con que nos entratuvo instructiva- mente el Rev. Pedro Hunkele, supliendo a nuestro profesora por tres semanas a causa de una infirmidad que le sobrevino. Imposible dejar aqui apuntados las mil y una perepecias y variades descripciones que tan vivamente impresionaron pero entresacando algunos de interes peculiar nostras los Norteamericanos les mencionaremos tan solo en cuanto el limitado espacio consiente. El mercado del codiciado y tan escaso platino, nos dijo, viene en la actualidad casi total- mente de la requlsima cuanto insalubre regidn del Choco de la costa del Pacifico. Allf los Americanos, y dicho sea de paso la palabra Americano se aplia en Sudamerica por exelencia a los Norteamericanos, lo sacan con gigan- tescas dragos del fonde do los rios, seperando mediante un proceso mecanico sumamente cumpli cado las finas particulas, del metal mas precioso de inmensa masas de fango y lodo, levantados del lecho de los rios de una region en donde casi todos los dias llueva cantores. El metal asi obtenido se funde aquf para el mundo entero su exorbitante precio. Por otro lado, la Tropical Oil Company, una rama de la Standard Oil Com- pany esta terminado un oleoducto de 450 milas del pals a la costa del Atlan- tico y Colombia que hasta ahora exportaba tan solo unos 6000 barriles de petro- leo y aceite crudo podra exportar en lo futuro unos 28,000,000 de barriles que no son sino el comienzo de un pais inagotable en requezas de subsuelo. Asi mismo, el cafe, muy superior al brazilefio con el moca de Arabia va en su totalidad al mercado de Nueva York, valuendose ya en el mismo pals en 70 $80 una carga e.d. un saco que buenamente puede llever un caballo camiando undia.

U M I E F E “What sculpture is to a block of marble, education is to the human soul!”— —Addison. Unique in the history of Arizona, and backed by a teaching tradition of nearly half a century in Prescott, the St. Joseph’s Academy, founded in 1878, enjoys the distinction of having advanced steadily and consistently with the progress of educational theory. From its ideal position on Academy Heights, commanding a panoramic view of our fair city and its background of pine forests, our Academy appeals to the student whose mind and heart respond to elevating influences. St. Joseph’s welcomes children of all creeds. The S. J. A. High School cur- riculum is arranged to meet the requirements of college, normal and commercial courses. It is fully accredited and. conducted by the Sisters of St. Joseph, maintains a well qualified teaching body, recognized as such by leading colleges and universities. The excellent health record of the Academy, aside from climatic advan- tages, is sustained by physical training under a skilled instructor, and great enthusiasm is shown in all seasonable sports. The beautiful chapel, with its elegant appointments, the magniificent library, the completely equipped laboratories, the home-like living rooms and spacious auditorium, with moving picture booth and radio sets, are among the attractive features of this delightful and modern school, of which Prescott and its people are justly proud. « ....................i Page Eighty-Four
