We left the auditorium saying that hour was the most enjoyable of the entire year, and hoping that the talented young men would come soon again. Mr. Kenny s Little Road is a little gem. and it was splendidly executed. We know that he has many other Little Roads awaiting development, and may they lead their young author along the way of happy success. Mrs. Janet C. Atkins, School of Dancing, brought two of her well-trained students to demonstrate for us. the correct method of ballroom dancing. She first gave a short talk, in which she emphasized the point that it is very incorrect and improper for a girl to lean on. or cling to her partner while dancing. She assured us that the boy has enough to do to carry himself, during a dance, and the extra weight should not be forced upon him. The students. Miss June Warren and Mr. Clayton Kendell. danced several fox-trots, waltzes and other steps with a grace and dignity which spoke for their training. Miss Frances Schaffer was the accompanist. Miss KlTTIE PRENDERGAST. Principal of the Adams School. St. Paul, brought us the interesting story of her trip through China and Japan. She told us of the many odd customs which seem amusing to us. On entering a church, every one removes his shoes, or wears some covering over them. Men and women are separated in church by wide aisles. Miss Prendergast showed us many beautiful souvenirs which she brought from China and Japan. —Mary Kay Reiter. .Miss Jrnal Mr . Dawson Miss Odiornc I 17 )

B FATHER Boyle talked to us about the little Philomena. the sweet, beautiful girl saint of thirteen, who suffered so terribly, and so bravely, a triple martyrdom under the cruel persecutor. Diocletian. He pictured her in the dark, damp, dingy prison, with slimy creatures creeping all around: he told of the cruel scourgings and beatings ordered by Diocletian to force her to renounce her God. and consent to be his bride. But little Philomena braved it all. and received the double crown of virginity and martyrdom. Mr. Cecil Birder, our choral director, presented a song recital of songs from many lands, including Care Selve. Hacndel: “Where E’er You Walk.” Haendel: “Sans O' Dee. Clay: “Molly Brannigan.” Old Irish: “She Rested by the Broken Brook.” Coleridge-Taylor. and “Hymn to the Night. Campbell-Pipton. He gave an interpretation of each number before he sang it. which added to the splendid program. Mrs. Birder was his accompanist. That hour of song was a most enjoyable one. Mr. Fenton Spence, head of the Department of Dramatic Art at St. Thomas College, assisted by Mr. Arthur Huth. vocal, and Dick Kenny, piano, both of St. Thomas, gave a very splendid, and most interesting program during Convocation hour. Mr. Spence read in part. “Of Thee I Sing. the musical comedy that was awarded the Pulitzer prize in 19 2. Mr. Huth. one of the most promising young tenors in St. Paul, sang the following group of beautiful songs: “Giammina-Mia.” Friml. “Serenade.” Toselli. “Garden of My Heart. Dorel. Lady Moon. Edwards. “Little Road. composed by his accompanist. Dick Kenny. We all felt a just pride in the refined and cultured group of talented young men who came from St. Thomas College to entertain us that morning. I 16 1
