The pi-Psirleni 'cf 0 W1 1 ' 'wil is llonalrl Ca C ra th tl H -IH gh 1 .f ' s On lanuary 11, 1920, the present Cathedral High School was dedicated by the Most Rev. Iohn I. Hennessy, D.D. The building is of Bedford stone and is a tribute to Rt. Rev. Monsignor Farrell's thirty-seven years as superin- tendent. Each year finds some added improvement in the buildings, equip- ment, or grounds, and, while these buildings represent a monument of perfect architecture, Monsignor's great- est work is the religious and cultural training of those who have the good fortune to be entrusted to his care. The faculty of the Sisters of St. Ios- eph has been augmented from two teachers in 1890, when they were teach- ing in the pro-Cathedral, to sixteen Sis- ters and two lay teachers at the present time. The members of the faculty have been trained with thorough care and hold degrees from the Catholic Univer- sity of America, from Notre Dame University, Creighton University, Wich- ita University, and Friends University. The spiritual guidance program is under the direction of Rev. Aloysius I. Felling. The courses of study offered in Cathe- dral High School include four years of religion, Latin, French, German, Spanish, English, mathematics, history, speech and science, and complete com- mercial, home economics, and indus- trial arts courses. In the music depart- ment, piano, organ, voice, glee club. chorus, history of music, harmony and music appreciation may be pursued.

Student interest in extra-curricular activities is in keeping with the high type of work done in the scholastic sphere. Chiel' among these are the one- 2lCt Fire Prevention Playwriting Con- test, the patriotic essay contests, the oratorical apologeticsg posters for the bulletin board, various musical activi- ties, ranging from private recitals to participation in state-wide festivalsg outside reading of good literature, Held trips-all of which make the days fuller and richer in preparation for life work. All work and no play is not Cathe- dral's moito. Recreation is well pro- vided. The highlight of the year was the May festival sponsored by Mrs. Sally Murdock and Mrs. A. O'R0urke, which rivaled in beauty and harmony the most elaborate ballroom. The games in the afternoon and the dancing in the evening were considered by the stu- dents as the major social event of the school year. The Easter Prom, spon- sored by the seniors, was next in rank. Following in line, the Hallowe'en and Valentine parties are still featured on memory's wall. Cathedral High School is affiliated with the State and with the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. Its curriculum ad- mits the student to any college without examination. This year the Cathedral High School numbers 476 pupils. The school and the high standard of work is not only a tribute to the Sisters of St. Ioseph but also to the Rt. Rev. Monsignor Farrell, whose special interest is the imparting of religious instruction, but who is a counselor to the students in every phase ol education. TWENTY-SEVEN
