Background Whenever the pupils of Glen-Nor want to express their affection for their school, they sing the Glen-Nor Hymn. Although they love this song, they take it for granted— and rightly so, for it has been sung since 1923. It is one of the many fine traditions that they owe to the early friends of Glen-Nor. A special debt of gratitude is due the originators of the school song— Mr. John J. Swan, Mr. Floyd Hart, and Dr. De Ette Edgette. One evening that first year in Glen-Nor history, these three far-seeing faculty members met at Mr. Swan's home to discuss the question of a school song. The dignified melody of an old hymn was chosen, and the inspired words were written by Dr. Edgette. In 1924 the Student Senate established the hymn as the official Glen-Nor Alma Mater. Although these teachers have long since left the school, the song has lived on. Because the thought and feeling of both words and music express Glen-Nor ideals, the hymn has grown to be a part of the fabric of school life. 9

Glen-J or, we sing to thee. Guide of our youth. Light of the path we tread, Author of truth. Honor and praise to thee! May all in future see Fruits of our loyalty. Our school, Glen-l or. Motif Just as in a song some notes are serene, some are blaring, and others are thrilling, so the life of each pupil contains elements which re- flect monotony, interest, and ex- citement. The varied patterns of pupil life are blended in this record of 1936- 1937. The steady march of classes, the lively tempo of extra-curricular life, the quickened beat of sports are all rhythms that have been woven into the song that each per- son has composed for himself. 10
