 Business, Art And Gracious Living Are Chartered On Our Course MRS MILDRED FERRIS. M A Arts and Crafts ARTS and CRAFTS are popular elective courses for all students, and potential artists of all four classes —Freshman through Senior- take advantage of them. A visit to the studio reveals MRS. FERRIS'S skill and versatility. Equally popular but for more practical reasons, are MRS. MARSHALLS courses in TVPING and STENOGRAPHY The newly equipped'Typing Room, furnished bv THE MOTHERS’ GUILD, has made the physical set-up pleasanter and more conducive to superior work. MRS MacBAIN, who is Sister Perpetua’s SECRETARY, and SISTER ALPHONSE MARY who is in charge of Renantor both exert a special influence on the students with whom they come in contact. No student who visits the Office can be unaware of MRS MacBAIN’S unfailing graciousness, and the Seniors in Renamor find this equally true of SISTER ALPHONSE MARY. MRS LYDIA MARSHALL.
