HANNfX, D.D Arcbbixbo 11 of San Francisvo Lender in Catholic Education and Friend of Youth RIGHT REVEREND MONSIGNOR JOSEPH M. GLEASON The CutholicCollc9cWomun9sScnriuiicce HE small college, especially as a school of arts and letters, is recognized as an important factor in the great educa- tional program of the modern world. Under the inspir- ation of gifted leaders it offers unquestioned advantages for the individual student. And this is particularly con- ceded in the case of the small college for women. But why a distinctive Catholic college for women? Many answers might be given to this query but they may all be sum- marized in this one. The Catholic college for women establishes an en- vironment for the development of the Catholic philosophy of life, a priceless possession. Here the young woman's faith is nurtured and made the handmaid of her talent. The Catholic woman has something in her spiritual equipment that others not so endowed either lack entirely or acquire painfully bit by bit, and even then never in its fullness. Her view of life is the resultant of her faith. The ministry of womankind no matter how varied has always been potent. It may be for weal or for woe according to the presence or the absence of faith. The educated Catholic woman brings the wisdom born of her faith into applied action in every walk of life. Her faith is the real vision of the things unseen. With it the banner she carries through life reads Excelsior far more truly than in the case of Longfellow's Alpine youth. In his charming volume Some Aspects of Modem Poetry, Alfred Noyes makes this challenging statement: The three greatest sonnets ever written by a woman are Re1zu11ci:1ti011, Thoughts in Scpawzfiovz, and The N eo- phyte, and they are all by Alice Meynellf, In these sonnets there is a delicacy of touch and an artistry of expres- sion whereby the simplest of words are made to paint a masterpiece. In them there is not only intellectuality but there is vision. Miss Meynell's imagery enables her to use the visible world to make manifest the invis- ible. These characteristics alone, however, do not make these sonnets distinctive. All poets have an eye for nature, and others are wizards with words. These songs stand out supreme because they are redolent of the Catholic spirit. They are the very breath of Catholic faith. To me it is the union of her faith with her poetic genius that alone explains Miss Meynell,s mastery. Her religion gave her the conception of life which her inspiration and technique as a poet enabled her to frame in image and phrase that will always live. Now because a woman is a Catholic, and even a Catholic college woman, does not mean that she can write sonnets. One has only to look through Leigh I-Iunt,s Book of the Sonnet or Sharpe's Sonnets of the Centuryv to realize how dismally even some otherwise clever poets have failed in attempting to chisel these technical gems of verse. Moreover it is only the exceptional woman, irrespective of her religion, who is touched with the fire of genius. . But every woman, no matter how humble her role in the world, has some modest individual endowment. This she can and ought to use to the full in her allotted field of work, social, literary, professional or do- mestic, just as the gifted poet so praised by Rosetti and Noyes used hers in her work so can every talented young woman ennoble and glorify the work that is hers in life by the magic Catholic touch. In college that individual talent is brought out and supplemented by education. Here too the inspiring faith of the Catholic young woman is nurtured in the intellectual environment that makes it healthy instead of sentimental or mawkish. Her faith gives edge to the tool of her edu- cation and enables her to carve an influence that is surprising to herself when she must cut the Gordian knots of later experience in the world. Daily she learns to say with the Psalmist Thy word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Unconsciously the Catholic philosophy of life becomes for her the magic wand and the open sesame in both the sorrows and the joys of human relationships. To feel and radiate that understanding of life and its problems, which her faith and her philoso- phy supply, is the Catholic college woman,s service to the World. It is twice blessed - It blesseth him that gives, and him that takes. -JOSEPH M. GLEASON. REVEREND T. C. PETERSEN, PHD., C.S.P. NTELLECTUAL equipment, priestly character, and human interest in the recreational as well as in the vital and sterner problems of young people rendered Father Petersen a companionable guide to youth. At Newman Hall hundreds of University students felt the power of his spiritual influence in their lives. At the College of the Holy Names it was Father Petersen's intimate acquaintance with the heart of youth which made him more than teacher to the members of the philosophy classes who enjoyed close Contact With his Winning personality. The Catholic University of America, in gaining a Professor of Semitic and Oriental Languages, has deprived the students of the West of a cherished counselor. The Catholic College Wfhy the Catholic College? We find our answer in the words of Car- dinal Newman: QC It will not satisfy me, what satisfies so many, to have two independent systems, intellectual and religious, going on at once, side by side by a sort of division of labor, and only accidentally brought together. It will not satisfy me, if religion is here and science there, and young men converse with science all day and lodge with religion in the evening . . . I wish the intellect to range with the utmost freedom, and religion to enjoy an equal freedom, but what I am stipulating is, that they be found in one and the same place, and exem- plined in the same persons. In the Catholic college alone will the student ind intellectual and re- ligious freedom not merely side by side, but, rather, in closer uniong for religion is the very heart which quickens the intellectual and spiritual life of youth, the vivifying principle of its growth. Cn the strong foundation of an enlightened love and practice of our holy Faith, the Catholic college builds the Catholic character, the habit of reverence and self-control. To the Catholic student, God is not a vague abstraction or a natural force, I-Ie is the loved Companion of her daily life, I-Iis laws win her acceptance and respect through knowledge and faith, His teachings guide her clearly to the attainment of true Catholic womanhood, -high-principled, cour- ageous, and true. My message to you, dear Students of our college, is one of congratula- tion on the success you have achieved through the value you have placed upon the finer things of life, and one of confidence that the clear intellec- tual and religious principles you have acquired will hold you steadfast to the ideals for which the Catholic college stands,-loyalty to God, rever- ence for truth, fidelity to duty. MOTHER MARY ANGELINE The College of the Holly Names Y HE efiicient organization of the College of the Holy Names which we know today had its early beginnings sixty-one years ago. It was in response to the request of Reverend Michael King, pastor of Saint Mary's parish, that six mem- bers of the Congregation of the Sisters of the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary came from Montreal in 1868 to open a school in Oakland which was then only a small town. The site chosen was on the western shore of Lake Merritt, described at that time as an impracticable location too far out in the country, a place wild and brush-covered, the haunt of rabbit and quail. As the work of the institution met with pronounced success, the mem- bers of the order were invited elsewhere to open schools. Insistent de- mands for thoroughly equipped instructors soon led to the establishment of a novitiate and training school to supply the necessary teachers for the parochial schools which were rapidly increasing in number. In 1880, the College of the Holy Names was chartered and empowered to confer de- grees. In 1917, when the course of studies was reorganized, the junior years of the college were opened to outside students, a privilege recently extended to the full four years. Graduates of the College of the Holy Names have everywhere been distinguished for broad culture and thorough scholarship. 'tThe ideal religious education that provides opportunities for spiritual enlighten- ment and growth is an acknowledged objective held constantly before the minds of instructors and students. The esjirit de corps so characteris- tic of the order, animates the students educated by the Sisters of the Holy Names, and is everywhere recognizable. Achievements of the congre- gation manifested in the work of its institutions in Canada and the United States bear testimony to the exalted aims and thorough scholastic training of the educators who constitute its members. In the State of California, five accredited high schools and twenty-two elementary schools are equipped with teachers who receive their training at the Col- lege of the Holy Names. With so many demands upon the Oakland institution, expansion soon became imperative, and additional buildings were erected from time to time. Recently, two houses on Harrison Boulevard overlooking Lake Shore Park were leased as resident halls for college students. However, today the problem of inadequate space remains a distressing one. The present urgent need of expansion has led to a purchase notable in the history of California. In August, 1927, the Sisters of the Holy Names acquired the famous Stanford acres upon the southern slope of Mission Peak. In pioneer days this vast acreage of low hills was known as El Rjmzclao del Agua Cdlffllff, named from the group of warm springs which bubble there close to the place where the Indians gathered in the eight- eenth century. The San Lea11d1f'0 Reporzfer thus describes the old estate with true ap- preciation and a touch of California color: The Stanford ranch, or Warm Springs, as it is called, is one of the old-time California ranchos. Its sprawling acres-over twelve hundred of them-nestle under the early morning shadows of Mission Peak, and look lazily out over the sunlit waters of lower San Francisco Bay. To do them full justice would require the pen of a Sir Wfalter Scott, or the tongue of a Richard Le Gallienne .... The boundary line extends to the top of the range of hills just south of Mission Peak, and is marked by a stone wall so old that it is a matter of conjecture as to who built it and when it was built .... It is here on the slopes, that the cattle graze. Higher up, the quail are plentiful, as well as even wilder game. In the early morning it is no uncommon sight to see a fawn standing on the top of the ridge gazing out over the valley. Here are rising mounds destined as sites for handsome buildings planned by the Sisters of the Holy Names. Golf courses, swimming pools, riding tracks, and all else that can contribute to women's sports will find space among these ample acres. The San Leancfro Rcfjiorlfcr looks even beyond this: It is extremely fitting that the new owners, according to their plans, will establish on their beautiful estate a select school for girls: for in thus sheltering the flower of California maidenhood they will be carrying on the highest tradition of hospitality which has been a distinctive feature of the Stanford ranch since the earliest days of its historyf' W'ith this acquisition of property and the greater opportunities which it implies, the Sisters of the Holy Names cherish visions of future achieve- ment. They hope to accomplish much for young womanhood in Cali- fornia. Greater equipment, so necessary a factor for the furtherance of effective teaching in the present age, will provide the means of progress. Although they welcome the physical advantages which the new site will render available for education, these religious teachers keep ever in mind the great purpose of their organization, and place due emphasis upon a development that will be of eternal value. The thought of former Presi- dent Coolidge well expresses this attitude towards higher learning: Unless our scholarship, however brilliant, is to be barren and sterile- more emphasis must be given to the development of our moral power. Our colleges must teach not only science but character. We must main- tain a stronger, firmer grasp on the principle declared in the Psalm of David and re-echoed in the Proverbs of his son, Solomon: 'The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdomf S. M. A. . ODAY 'a college education for women is the usual occurrence. With it has come a widening of the path of freedom, a Way that is beset with per- plexities both intellectual and spiritual. The re- sponse of the students of this year to the full confidence placed in them by the Faculty has revealed their ability to evaluate with caution, to select and reject, to choose for themselves consistently with religious ideals of devotion and practice. The Senior Class, in particular, has been notable for preserving desirable standards and for exer- cising commendable tact and resourcefulness in keeping these before the student-body mind. It is to be hoped that the spirit manifested in nineteen twenty-nine may animate future student groups and prompt them not only to seize available opportuni- ties for intellectual and spiritual achievement but to create them as well.

As freshmen, trying to gain a foothold in the social world, the class entertained the student body at a novel Wizard of Oz affair, and, at the close of the semester, honored the sophomores at a Radioland dinner-dance. Later outstanding events included a Valentine bridge-supper, which proved an incentive for similar affairs in the future, an Italian supper, and the Senior Tea, the first of a series given by the various classes, which was a notable success. Initiative and cooperation between officers and classmen have been the keynote to the success of the past four years, and, as those years have approached' their end, the Class of 329 has come to realize that the gener- ous outpouring of personal abilities is essential to the success of the indi- vidual, and of the group, as a social unit. Aware of this fact, the Senior Class has consistently attempted to combine scholastic and social activi- ties advantageously, to cooperate in the activities of other units of the student body, and to keep alive the ideal of service toward faculty and students-a plan of action which has brought, and inevitably will bring, enjoyment and accomplishment. The Girnudlncultesg Message 'Y HE MEMBERS of the graduating class of ,29 Wish to express sincere appreciation to their Alma Mater, , who, through the kindly interest, unselfish devotion, and careful guidance of her faculty, through her traditions, and through her students, has inu- planted in their hearts high ideals, which will en- able them to tread the pathway of the future with steadfastness and courage. 3. , x REGINA KATHRYN COMSTOCK Major: HISTORY Alpha Phi Alpha, President, '29 Masqucrs, '26, '27 Glcc Club, '26, '27 Swimming Club, '28 S.

The Junior Cllcoiss OFFICERS MAIKGARET CONCANNON ---- Pl'f'5if1l'l1f MARGARET KITZMILLER - - Viet'-Presizlcnt ALICE SLATER - - - - Sc'c1'c'frr1'y-T1'c'as1u'm' Y HE YEAR OF ,29 has been a stepping-stone which has en- abled the members of the Class of '30 to feel that each has partially attained that for which she is consciously striv- ing during the period of her college career, namely, intel- lectual advancement, religious training, and social activity. In its endeavor to achieve and to promote scholastic progress, the class, as a whole, has done much toward the growth of Alpha Phi Alpha, and has played a noteworthy part in the formation of Alpha Theta Epsilon, two societies prominent in the field of the intellec- tual activities of the college. Attempting to intensify religious enthusiasm, the class has, through its decided interest and earnest cooperation, contributed greatly to the steadily increasing influence and success of the Students, Spiritual Coun- cil, the most active spiritual organization in the school, as it has in the Helds of dramatics and sports, realizing that both are essential to the life of the ideal college student. In the sphere of social activity, the Junior Tea, given early in the fall, may be looked upon as an outstanding success. Keeping constantly before them the important fact that the three ele- ments, scholastic training, religion, and social activity, are essential to the well-rounded life of the Catholic college student, the Junior Class, during the past year, has conscientiously striven to attain them in their entirety.

It has required the first year to estab- lish the class thoroughly, and to accustom it to the person- ality, traditions, and scholastic standards of the college, and freshmen anticipate coming opportunities that will enable them to realize the ambitions born of this year's labor. Foresight was shown in the selection of competent omcers to conduct the class on its maiden journey through the mazes of the freshman year. Freshmen and new students were cordially greeted by the student body at a reception on October third. In the spring semester, the members of the student body were guests of the Freshman Class at an informal dance at the Women's City Club of Oakland. The success of this affair indi- cated that the class had uarrived' in the social Held. Meanwhile these activities in no way hampered the maintenance of a high academic average. Continuing in the manner in which it has begun, daring, pventuring, conquering, as have the pioneers of old, remembering always that yes- terday's best is not good enough for tomorrow, at the end of four years' time, the Freshman Class will be able to look back with satisfaction, and offer, with an exuberance born of constant effort, a heartfelt Te Demn. ,W if W1 W t,,..,...

Fortunate in assuming their duties at a time in the history of the college when there was ample opportunity for initiative and for cooperative work, the officers began to carry out their aims by reorganizing the student body and by introducing new forms of student activity. The student body was divided into committees whose chairmen, to- gether with the student officers, compose an Executive Council. By work- ing in conjunction with the Students' Spiritual Council, every phase of student activity is under their administration, due to the number and nature of the committees: scholastic, athletic, social, dramatic, and pub- licity. Wfith the cooperation and under the supervision of the Faculty, the Executive Council has encouraged committee members to be most enter- prising. Probably there is no student who has not at one time or another had the opportunity to show her ability either as leader or supporter. Elements of leadership and cooperation have been uppermost in all func- tions carried on throughout the year. Piresiidenitis Message T IS AN HONOR to have the privilege of voicing the message of the Student Body President in the Year Book of the College of the Holy Names. This message is from the hearts of all the members of the student body. To the members of the Faculty, we express appreciation for the vital interest and support given toward the success of stu- dent activities. We thank them for the many opportunities offered for the carrying out of new ideas. Witliout their enthusiasm and example of cooperation, we could have accomplished little. To those who are graduating, we offer congratulations on their scholas- tic attainments. May they always remember the College of the Holy Names, for Alma Mater cherishes the memory of her graduates and fol- lows with loving interest their activities elsewhere. To members of the Staff, the message is one of praise and gratitude. The Year Book, representing long hours of labor, deserves honor for the culture which it embodies and for the initiative and cooperation of Staff members which it displays. May the editing of a Year Book at this Col- lege become a tradition. To the undergraduates, we extend a wish for success. May they carry on both the old traditions and the new, and, in so doing, may they meet with the same whole-hearted support which has been so evident in the past. But this is not all. The message is not complete without a wish for the welfare of the Institution as a whole. May its work be carried on, so that many future students may beneht from this abode of learning, and bene- Hting, may come to a realization of the ideal so adequately expressed: If thou canst plan a noble deeal, And vzeverf flag till it succeed, Though in the strife thy heart should hleed, Whatever ohstacles Control, Thine hour will come. Keep on! Go 011 true soul! Thozflt win the prize 5 thozflt reach the goal.

Spiimituul Council OFFICERS LUCILLE GANNON - - - - President ALICE SCI-IWHEEN - - - Scc1'r'tary S HE STUDENTS, SPIRITUAL coUNC1L is a national organiza- tion, formed for the purpose of developing Catholic lead- ership. A unit of the Council was organized at the College of the Holy Names in May, 1928, by Miss Denise Tolan, at the suggestion of Father Daniel Lord, SJ., of Saint Louis University. This organization is now an active branch of the great league of Catholic students of America. Its repre- sentatives Were sent in March to the regional convention of the organiza- tion, and it is planned that at least two will be sent to the national convention to be held in 1931. Thousands of young men and women have attended the various conventions held in all large cities of the United States, and have listened with deep respect and admiration to their fellow students as they told of their attempts to make the S. S. C. a live, active factor in college life. This organization has inspired a bond of union among other colleges and has deepened the bond in the individual colleges where the members of the student body have been drawn closer together by striving for the ideals held up to them by the S. S. C. It has the possibilities of developing spiritual initiative and has made of loyal Catholic students, militant Catholic leaders. The Students' Spiritual Council at the College of the Holy Names is keenly appreciated. It acts in cooperation with the student body and lends a vital spirituality to all its activity. Each Catholic student is a member of the Council, and is active in one of the various committees of which this organization is composed. During the past school year, under the leadership of Miss Lucille Gan- non, the Students, Spiritual Council has been a constant source of interest and inspiration to students. The members have enjoyed stimulating lec- tures delivered by Father G. Donnelly, S.J., Father E. A. McFadden, SJ., and Father T. C. Petersen, C.S.P., on the ideals of the organization and on various religious topics. Father McFadden, the Pacific Coast director of the S. S. C., together with Miss Gannon, summoned a convention of the students ofthe Catholic colleges of the Bay region, which Was held at Saint Ignatius College the twentieth of April. At this conference, under the direction of Father McFadden, an inter-collegiate council was organized with Mr. George King of Saint Ignatius College as secretary, the meeting Was then adjourned until September. The Students' Spiritual Council has proved a source of inspiration, a bond of spiritual union, and an education in the field of student leadership. A Message Y HE COLLEGE OF THE HOLY NAMES, of all the institutions of higher learning in the San Francisco Bay district, has without question, best grasped the idea of the Students' Spiritual Council, and, what is pleasantest to relate, has set that idea to work. Faculty and student body, alike, responded to Father Lordis appeal two years ago, and de- spite untold difficulties and discouragements, have labored, each in his own sphere, until now one may truthfully say that there is no single organization in the College that has a wider moral influence or is richer in spiritual results than the S. S. C. The purpose of the Students' Spiritual Council, a practical adaptation of the Sodality organization to present-day needs, is to develop qualities of leadership in our Catholic youth. The present generation is just as generous, just as responsive to noble inspiration as the sons and daughters of other years. All that it needs is direction. And here, it would seem, our Catholic educational system has been at fault. Student initiative has been killed by too much direction. The S. S. C. strives to remedy this. The work, done almost entirely at times by the Catholic teacher, is trans- ferred to a great extent through committees to the students. At most, the Director of its Sodality or of its Students' Spiritual Council, if there be no Sodality in its college, suggests the ideas and then allows the com- mittee and its chairman free rein in their development. The real Direc- tor, or Directress, must be a deep student and imitator of the Divine Teacher's methods. And, without flattery, all 1T1uSt concede that a very large factor in the S. S. Cfs success at Holy Names has been due, in both the College and the High School, to the good judgment, sympathetic encouragement and unflagging interest of the Faculty members. The students' part has been done generously, too. Once it was under- stood - and this was speedily grasped - that the S. S. C. was not going to interfere with existing societies, but would work hand in hand with them and rather stimulate each than lessen interest in any, the student body readily adopted the new organization. Real leadership soon began to show itself. Leaders and led gladly sealed their faith in one another by cheerful sacrifice. The methods used and the results accomplished have been set down elsewhere. Personally, I can only say that the thought of the S. S. C. at Holy Names is a real inspiration. And I feel confident that the accomplishments of the past year and a half are merely so many har- bingers of even more fruitful years to come. This demands tact and patience upon the part of the Director, for it is not always easy to hold back while leadership is being learned, to encourage halting footsteps, and, in the hope of better work later on, to seem satished at very ordinary results. E. A. MCFADDEN, SJ. The Retreat OME APART into a desert place and rest a littlef' was the invitation issued to the college students and enthusias- tically accepted on Marchitwentiethg and for three days God showered His graces and blessings on those who fol- lowed His invitation. Reverend J. P. Towey, CSP., the director, gave a series of stimulating and instructive dis- courses. The students were most interested and there is no doubt that each one received an abundant share of the blessings that God showers on those who faithfully correspond to the grace of a retreat. On the morn- ing of the fourth day the retreat closed with Mass and Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. The students were then guests of the Faculty at a breakfast. NWA S.. S.. C..

It is a hate that has been growing on me slowly until now it has reached almost overpowering proportions, and I fear that in the future it will develop into a sort of complex. I shudder to think that in days to come, I shall go about with a wild look in my eye, while my friends will nudge one another and murmur compassionately: Oh. Marie's all right. It's just her peculiarity. And it all came about because of Henri. Henri is a barber - a famous barber, a French barber - who is established in an exclusive little beauty shop. Unfortunately, one of my friends, distressed at my appearance, recommended him to me. I, trusting soul, followed her advice and de- livered myself over to the mercy of Henri,s shears. I might have known from the moment I set foot in the little establishment that the event would be extraordinary. I was met by a superior-looking person in black, who in response to my insistence that I was in a frightful rush, and could I not have an appointment immediately? demurred, Madame will have the kindness to be seated a moment. Madame was seated. There was really nothing else to do, and besides the figure had disappeared beyond reach of my protests. I waited an im- pressively long period before the superior person returned. Probably it was calculated to give me time in which to note the simple elegance of the little room, the discreetly drawn shades, the soft grey rugs, and dull mahogany furnishings. At last she returned and admitted that Henri would serve meg but from the look she flashed me, I deduced that I was to be on my best behavior in the presence of this great gentleman. I was seated for several moments before anything happened. Then with a clacking of heels and a rustling of apron, Henri was upon me. I had one detached impression of flashing black eyes, pointed Van Dyke, and long, tapering fingers, before I fell under the spell of Henri's person- ality. After that I had one vast desire to escape. Now I had always been accustomed to have my hair cut as I wished, and naturally enough, I did not suspect that this day would be an excep- tion. But when I began giving Henri the usual explicit directions, I was suddenly cut short by a dismayed exclamation. Oh, mais non! Madame cannot wish eet so. Eet ees vair' bad taste. Evair,one have eet so. For one long time you go somewheres they know nottings as Henri knows. Madame go. They cut, clip-clip. Pouf! Eet ees off, and Madame ees just lak evair' one. Ees eet not so? But see, Henri knows! I started to protest spiritedly enough at first, but as Henri's voice rose higher and louder, I perceived that I could not compete with himg and besides he had already begun the devastating work, and once begun, it had to be finished. I lapsed into an indignant silence as Henri rattled on. Gradually it dawned on him that I was not responsive, wherefore he began very adroitly to change his tactics, and made overtures to restore my good feelings. His voice was low and suave now, his comments, fewer. Finally, - Pardon, Madame, but the curl-eet ees natural? Now all my life I have been acutely aware of the parallel construction of my hair. But Henri was insistent: The curl - eet ees not artifeecial?,' I flashed a look into the mirror, convinced that I had either developed a sudden growth of ringlets, or that Henri had gone stark mad. No, no ringlets. It must be Henri. But he, ignoring my silence, was continuing, Eet ees arteestic so, Madame. Not lak so many stupid, flat waves in one row, but just here and there - vair' subtle. I did not realize until afterwards, the irony of that here and there? I did not realize until afterwards that this was a clever ruse to restore my good feelings. No, for the moment, being feminine, I was placated. Of course I returned to Henri after that. Not that his work was especially satisfactory-it was not. It was more expensive than ever before, it resulted in my hair growing out faster than ever before, and it revealed the queer place on the back of my head where there should be a bump and is not. But, I argued, if it was not an artistic success, it was not altogether Henri's fault. He was working against great odds. Q And so, time and again, although I dreaded it, I returned to Henri. Une day, however, came the climax. As usual, I was in a frantic rush that day, and snatched one of those brief in-betweenities to keep an appoint- ment at Henri's. I informed him straightway that I wished him to hurry as much as possible, and he seemed unusually obliging. I was overjoyed when he finished his clipping in a scant fifteen minutes, and prepared to depart. But it was not to beg for Henri protested that there were a dozen things Madame needed- tonics and treatments for this and that. I flatly refused. Henri grew Voluble. He began shaking up a bottle and applying its perfumed contents to my hair. Now if there is one thing I loathe more than any other, it is perfume promiscuously applied. By this time I was seethingg but I was also helpless. My watch merrily ticked away a full forty minutes before Henri ceased his ministrations and that deadly sweet tonic evaporated. At the end of that forty minutes I rose with all the dignity and hauteur I could summon. I did not thank Henri, I did not smile. I merely demanded to know the price. Henri casually mentioned a sum that startled me, but I did not reveal that fact to him. Instead I reached calmly into my purse for the required amount. Did I say calmly? I began to reach frantically after a moment, and all my grandness left me, and I stood there, very humble and chagrined. For I was short just fifteen cents! Henri, of course, with truly magnificent condescension, swept the matter aside. After all what was mere money if the artist was satisfied with his work? I remember, however, that he added that Madame might drop in the following morning with the fif- teen cents, if it did not inconvenience too greatly?,' I do not know how I got out of Henri's. All I remember is that I walked very rapidly for several blocks, and for the rest of that day was utterly incapable of any rational thinking. I have never brought the fifteen cents to Henri. I doubt if I ever shall. It weighs mightily on my conscience, and I fairly slink by that neighbor- hood in the manner of a fugitive bank robber. Perhaps some day I shall slip it under his door, or mail it from some far city, or include him in my will. But at present his magnificent condescension rankles too deep, and I can only avoid him and write columns on my consuming hate for French barbers in general. IVIARII2 MILLER, ,29 Sammi lfirculmlciisco The huge city lay like a royal beast asleep. A damp mountain was its pillow. A clinging sheath of fog was its Coverlet. The sky-Scrapers, faithful bodyguards of their king, reared their heads above the fog in stoic watchfulness. The bay, like a whipped cur, crept close to lick the feet of its master. ' Dawn rose timidly from out the sea. Her grey robes were damp from the water,s touch. She reached out a shy hand and touched the sleeping beast. He growled and stirred in his sleep. A skyscraper screeched out an alarm. The terrified dawn turned like a culprit, and fled far out over the sea into oblivion. A new day had begun.

LUCILLE FAILING, ,3 2 The Toll Y HE RIVER BOAT dragged itself through the black, sluggish waters. It pulled away from the huge, damp leaves that clung to it on the shore side, and crept on through the clouds of mosquitoes and blue flies. The dark forest on either side of the river sent up its eternal offering of steam and stench to the persecuting sun. South Africa - a hell of damp heat. South Africa - a ripened harvest of pagan souls. Tian was resting. His long, shiny, black body was sprawled out on the deck of the river boat. His black head was leaning on a greasy coil of rope. His eyes were half closed. Tjan rested. Margo, the owner of the river boat, said he always rested, but Margo was wiseg he kept Tjan on his crew and paid him well, for Tjan knew this black, treacherous river better than any man alive. He knew each bend and reef of its course. He had helped Margo through many a difficulty. Tjan's eyes were half closed, but his mind was alert. A tall, bronze missionary was standing in the shadow of the cabin. Tjan was watching him. Many missioners had gone down the river on this boat, enduring the heat and dampness with patience. Some few had returned, broken and wrecked. Many had never returned. None had accomplished his purpose. This man was different. Tjan liked him. He neither com- plained nor bragged. He just sat or stood all day reading out of a little book or murmuring over a string of beads that he carried in his pocket. On these Tjan had now centered his attention. The beads fascinated him. He wanted them. Nestor, his little, motherless boy, had no trinkets. If he could give him these, the little fellow would be the envy of the whole village. The beads were dangling from the missionary's pocket now. If only they would fall! They would be his in the twinkling of an eye. The mis- sionary moved suddenly, turned and walked toward the cabin. Tjan held his breath. The beads were slipping-another moment--they were on the ground now. The missionary was walking on. Tjan looked around cautiously. A sudden birdlike dart - the beads were hidden in Tjan's hand. Tjan again was resting. His eyes were half closed. All through the long, tropical night, Tjan argued with himself. The beads seemed to burn his hand. He wanted them for little Nestor, but something seemed to tell him to give them back. Tjan was a kind man. at heart. He knew the missionary loved the beads. Yet, he had them now. They were his. Wliy should he return them? Tjan had never heard of theft. In the dim light, he could see the cross on the rosary. He looked at the Hgure of the Man on the Cross. The Man's face was kind. He wondered who the Man was. YW as He the God of the missionary? Tjan wondered. He had heard other missionaries preach in the coast town. He knew a little of their God. Tjan would love a God like that,- so kind, so gentle. He suffered, too! Tjan knew what suffering was. He had suf- fered much in his life. Tjan jingled the beads in the air. They were beau- tiful, but the missionary loved and needed them more than he. He would return them in the morning and have the missionary tell him about that kind, suffering God, then he, Tjan, would tell his friends and little Nes- tor, and they would all worship this God. Thus Tjan made his plans. The sweltering night wore on. The odor of wet leaves and stagnant water filled the air. Mosquitoes covered the doors and screens in their search for prey. Suddenly out of the jungle rose a hideous menace. Fever! She crept on the sleeping river boat - smirked in the darkness - reached out her clammy hand touching her victims, and watching them suffer. The hot night was filled with moans. Half the crew lay gasping and sweating, their bodies racked with pain. The touch of Fever was swift and deadly. Dawn came, sulky and remorseless. Fever had taken her tol! of ten, and had passed on, back to the jungle from whence she had come. Tjan, the black river man, lay stretched out on the deck. His body was still, his face was serene and calm. The 1nissionary's black beads were clutched in his dead hand. Margo, the owner of the river boat, looking down on the body, saw the beads- Stealing again! These bloomin' niggers ain,t got no souls! - and Tjan's body was kicked overboard with the other nine.

Down in its lovely valley we staged the age-old dreams that were to us so stirring and new. Some day the people in that valley would bow in homage to us. Aloft, triumphant, we would stand while the world gazed upon the won- drous arch which we had raised, so we dreamed and were happy, we reveled in fancy, and pleasantly passed our childhood days. Yet, do not these early visions remain? Ambition to realize a recognized ideal dwells in every youthful heart. The early vision of achievement still gleams dur- ing our college years, and tomorrow is always the day for making it a fixed goal. Are we fitting ourselves for tomorrow? Are we making ready for life's task? As teachers or as mothers it will be our privilege to build in the mind of childhood a world of wholesome fancies and spiritual visions. Shall we be ready to teach Christ's little ones what is beautiful and good by word and example? Are we preparing ourselves to fill them with a faith so burning that the souls of other men will be like tinders to their touch? Are we willing to lose life and its rewards for the sake of the highest service? Wlaatevei' the choice of life, we must be prepared for self-sacrifice. College has done a great deal for us. Here we associate with educated, cultured women who make us familiar with the little winding paths that lead to all that is holy and sweet and good. Lighted by their torch we have come to see the great white road which leads to our goal, true Catholic womanhood. Leaning upon help from Mary, model of the womanly vir- tues, we can follow the way with steadfastness. Wfho is the true Catholic woman? She is that dynamic force for good in the present, the hope of the future. She is capable of earning her live- lihood, of providing for those committed in any way to her care, but she is also trained to the nobler, the more spiritual things of life and honor. In her you find that courage which makes men give themselves unto the service of others. An ever-ready friend, a loving comforter, an interest- ing companion- all these you End in her. Gentleness, sympathy, the courage and will to stand by all that is pure and good make you love her. Such Womanly virtue is equipment for life's Work.

The red, russet-brown, and golden leaves of autumn, or the delicate green leaves of spring have the power of changing the world into a wonderland, but it is the staid black and white leaves of books which carry us into magic realms undreamt of even in fairyland. True, books may boast of varied and vivid covers, covers the colors of which are often an index to the glorious paths over which we travel by the magic of the printed leaves. Romance is ours for the seeking. This flame-colored book takes us through a land as vivid as its color. lt contains more of magic than scar- let leaves dancing in the wind. We hear the click of castanets, we smell the fragrance of red roses, and the lure of Spain grips us. Romance! Ad- venture! We take up another brilliantly-colored book and feel the surge of the open sea. Pirate ships, men-o'-war, slave galleys pass us as onward we sail over the whale path, over the tracts of the sea. Still other magic leaves show us strange, far-off lands of the Orient, or awaken the mel- ody of old loves, the clash of swords, the swashbuckling of some rogue of old. But when our mood turns from winged dreams and we seek the deeper wells of thought, we reach for this volume with its pages frayed a bit, and its odor of mouldy age. Gingerly we turn the pages. Ah, this is the key to the mountain peaks of thought. Within its dull cover, we find written the inspirations of those great minds .... forever Voyaging through strange seas of thought, alone. Some books may bring memories or dreams, but these open up new paths and wide vistas unthought of before. And now we turn to the golden books of heroes long since dead, of lives uplifting and inspiring, whose nobility has shone forth like a beacon fire throughout the ages. Battles fought, and deeds done are revived and relived for us. Through these books of gold, we are made acquainted with the intimate thoughts and lives of great men, be they saints or scholars, emperors or statesmen. Ignatius of Loyola, Xavier, Dante, Bona- parte, Lincoln are only a few of the immortal host that live again for us through the magic leaves. Poetry! There is enchantment in the very word. This slender, green volume, like those Hrst leaves of spring, symbolizes all that is fresh, and clean, and sweet. We lightly turn the pages. A line, perhaps, or a phrase catches our eye and makes the world new for us again. Magic leaves! Lands unheard of, dreams impossible, and thoughts unlimited all lie hid- den in these leaves bound in red, in russet-brown, in gold, and in delicate green. AGNES GOETHALS, ,29 Reflleetions on My Binder QA Freshman Tries to Write a Themej OU CAN TELL a real college student by the binder she keeps, loose-leaf, well-organized papers kept in perfect order. If you cannot keep such a binder, college is no place for you: you are not a student. This ultimatum was delivered to a group of wide- eyed, trusting freshmen at the opening of the college semester, and straightway they sagely nodded their bobbed locks, and with one accord determined to keep a binder which would rival even the Encyclopedia Britannica in perfection of detail. Now I was among that group of freshmen, and I also made the grim determination to keep a binder which would cause me to swell with pride whenever I viewed its scholarly pages. And yet, now in May, when I gaze on my binder and recall that resolution, I cannot understand how the thing happened. For my binder is not that of a student: it is neither well-organized nor orderly, but, in due justice to myself, it is loose-leaf-distressingly so. I must repeat, I do not know how it happened, for I had the noblest intentions, and really attempted to materialize them. I do not know where the fault lies, but I am inclined to think it is because I have never caught the germ of precision. Precise people stir up a wrath within me that I cannot explain, so I have always avoided that virtue, and reveled in a mild form of the opposite vice. But to return to my binder. At the beginning of the year, I embarked on my college career equipped with a ponderous supply of stiff, new books, and a comfortably thick binder that was really immaculate. Now, in May, my books have not appreciably suffered-what notes are in them I do not regret-but my binder arouses my deepest sympathy. Just to look at its threadbare back, at its worn and bulging sides, at the unlovely fringe of papers which insist on protruding from it, would evoke the sympathy of anyone. There are papers which started out to be history notes and ended in being a collection of words and expressions gleaned from the lecture, words which, unfortunately, appealed to me. I think history professors should be obliged to express themselves in com- monplace terms. It is too distracting, otherwise. I hear a new word. I must look it up, it sounds sort of musical. I wonder what it means? Would it not be funny if it were accented on the other syllable? Would not lots of words be funny if they were accented on the other syllable? I start down the list, making sedate words stand on their heads. Miss Miller, you will please give a resume of the lecture. I find myself on my feet. If you accent words on the wrong syllable, they- My instructor flashes me a penetrating glance. I realize the lecture was about the French Revolution, not the revolution of words. I steal a glance at my note book page-nothing but a list of foolish words. I go into English where the instructor is dissertating on the use and abuse of the comma. I take a few scholarly notes until I suddenly dis- cover the delightful quality of the instructor's voice, the fascinating way she has of turning r's into-I do not quite know what, but it is intriguing. I close my eyes while the lovely voice goes on and on. A month later I refer to my notes, and discover nothing but r's written all over the page in the vain endeavor to find whether they sounded like 'tuhsv or ahs, or what happy in-betweenity that made me like them. I go to botany. The lecture is on the relative destructive properties of bread mold and rusts. I try to be attentive, but I do not feel in the mood for bread mold on a spring day. Ah! Spring-April skies-pussy willows and daffodils! My next theme in the making. I tear a blank page from my long-suffering binder, and begin to write, until sud- denly I become aware that a botany classroom is not quite the appro- priate place for composing themes. So it has gone for ten months, until my binder has become a queer conglomeration of notes that are half fact and half fancy, of programs thrust between pages, of torn memos of things I must not forget to do. On some days, of course, I am not given to such flightinessg I remain severely concentrated for an entire period. On such days I have excellent appearing notes to reward my pains, and these I keep in a spe- cial section of my binder fthe only orderly feature about itj where they may not be contaminated by the rest of the inelegant pages. I rather stand in awe of those notes-they seem too grand to be creatures of my making. If I were prudent, I should not divulge this vice of mine. I-Iowever, the year is over, and next semester I am going to be a student. Also, I was driven to do this out of desperation-the desperation of a blank mind, and a still blanker blue book. The Great Plug LL THE WORLD is a stage, and every man and woman is an actor striving to perfect his part. Each actor has an ideal-the perfection of his work, the perfect develop- ment of his talents. There are no rehearsals for this great play of life. It is a short play and a final one. The talents of the players must be developed rapidly and perfectly. But the Critic, who watches each move from beyond the footlights, is the kindest of critics. He often pretends not to hear false lines, and He frequently prompts out of the kindness of His Heart. He knows this play by heart. He played it once Himself. Certain men down through the ages have stepped upon the stage and have played their parts with courage and perfection. They realized their talents, and developed them according to the model given them by that greatest of actors, their Critic. They pleased Him, and He gave them fame, and took them from the stage out into a real life of glory. One great actor began the play with earnestness and passionate energy, but he was seeking the attainment of a wrong ideal. This actor was Saint Paul. He wanted world fame for himself, and honor for the Jewish race. The Critic saw him, and was sorry. He sent a messenger to the stage who told him of a Ener part to play-the spread of Christianity. And he, great actor that he was, saw his mistake and set about to play this new part to the best of his ability. He succeeded, and won a smile from the Critic. Some actors have been hissed from the stage by the crude critics who stand in the wings. But the great Critic always met them outside the stage entrance. He knew perfection, and each actor He rewarded with wealth untold. Thus Saint Stephen, the martyr, played his part. He knew his lines perfectly, and when they were questioned by the Jews, he defended the perfection of his part. He had the courage of his con- victions. Saint Agnes played a sweet, loyal part. She was only a girl, but her ideal meant more to her than worldly honor. Wfhen first she entered on the stage, she glanced down over the footlights, saw the Critic-and loved Him. She played her part for Him alone. Other actors have been given parts which they hated, but they ac- cepted them humbly and played them well. The Critic was pleased. Saint Francis of Assisi wanted a minor part. He wanted solitude and prayer. The Cure d'Ars longed for a minor part. He would have loved to have been just a stage hand. Both were asked to take leads in the most difficult of roles-worldly roles accompanied by worldly acclama- tion. They played with humility, and as the curtain fell, they knew they had grasped their ideal. Some actors went out on to the stage to help others. Saint Teresa's duty was to coach other actors, and to tell them where they were failing. She founded austere convents, and sent countless actors from the stage to great rewards in the real life. Saint Catherine of Siena was the world's greatest optimist. She cheered other actors during the play. She was a true politician, and performed great deeds during her act. She was sent by the Critic to a great actor, a pope, to tell him that he was confusing his fellow-actors by saying the wrong lines. He listened to her and gratefully accepted the directions she gave him. The greatest Actor of all was the Critic. His part was short. It lasted only thirty-three years, but in His few lines we find talent unequaled. Hue is the Personification of the Ideal we strive to reach. He has sympathy for young and clumsy actors. If we but ask Him, He will come onto the stage, and almost play our parts for us. May we win the approbation of this beloved Critic. His smile for us, as the curtain is drawn, will be a sweet, treasured memory when we have left the stage and our life really has begun. We shall live with Him then, and He will tell us all the little intimate details of His play, and-how he shall love His leading lady!

What memories that phrase awakens! To every activity music lends life and beauty. From the lark of strumming out Dixie on one piano to the ac- companiment of Over There on another, evolving there- from a composition of startlingly novel harmonic charms, up to the dignified ensemble of the College Or- chestra, there runs a thread of pleasantest memories. Those of the stu- dent body who by their musical talent can contribute to the occasions which call for their cooperation find therein a double enjoyment and inspiration. In response to an appeal from the S. S. C., the music of their rally song was written overnight by two enthusiastic music students, Alice Schween and Norma Cyr. It has become one of the most popular of the coilege songs. In the plays and receptions given during the year, the musicians find another opportunity for varied programs. Three recitals, one during the fall semester in honor of Saint Cecelia, and the others toward the close of the second semester, are the outstand- ing and traditional public performances given by the School of Music. This year the Saint Cecelia recital consisted entirely of ensemble music. The piano duos included the Brahms Waltzes, the Arensky Suite, and a Rimsky-Korsakow concerto. A song by the Glee Club, two numbers by the String Ensemble, a trio of Harp, Cello, and Organ, and a Harp Ensemble were a contrast to the piano duos. The first recital given in the spring always features those music students who have completed the requirements for the Junior Certificate in ,Applied Music. The rendition of two or three numbers by each is followed by the conferring of the certificates. At the third recital, any graduate music student may render an entire program. One or two numbers are repeated at Com- mencement, when the Diploma in Music is conferred. In one of the composition classes the students, under the inspirational guidance of Signor Domenico Brescia, spent an entire semester on com- positions of their own. Some of these were arranged by the orchestra- tion class, and all were performed as a special feature of the Junior Certificate recital. The C. I-I. N. String Ensemble broadcast an hour of music in the early part of last SCITICSECI. Again, in November, the Saint Cecelia program was broadcast from a local station, and repeated in part from another. The School of Music has always adhered to the high type of artistry demanded by string quartet playing. The Quartet founded and con- ducted by Mr. Louis Ford in 1925 met with marked success, and held to its high standards throughout the succeedingyears. The C. H. N. String Ensemble prepares a larger group of students for quartet playing. At present, the membership in this organization is as follows: Violin: Thelma Ferrario, Margaret Evans, Norma Cyr, Thelma Porter, Muriel Phillips, Josephine Garcia, and Inger Kromang Cello: Rosemarian Breier, Margaret Kitzmillerg Harp: Mary Jean Porter, Piano: Marguerite Flan- nery. Violin students occasionally take the viola, in order to gain a Wider experience. The Ensemble played for the recitals, and furnished a musical number at each of the receptions given during the year. Mem- bers of the Ensemble also furnish incidental music to the various plays given by the Masquers.

Much of the suc- cess of the club is due to the first president of the Masquers, Miss Marguerite Kehoe. During the past year the Masquers have been very active. Early in Cctober a party was given to the student body with the object of awakening among the students interest in dramatics. Old members, new members, and prospective members of the Masquers gathered on the stage and enjoyed an informal social evening. The first important production of the year was the Christmas play, Sonmliug Brass, the proceeds of which were donated to charitable pur- poses. In January the Masquers sponsored a successful theatre patty at the Dufwin Theatre. On Mission Day, April the sixteenth, two delight- ful plays were presented, The Kmwc' of H erzrfs and Pi6l FOZi,S Mofber. Through talent and generous help of the president, Miss Frances Silva, the past year has been a record of success for the Masquers. its Allplhioi Phi Allplhicui A OFFICERS REGINA COMSTOCK ---- Prvsidnzff .

At the first meeting of the year a most informing paper on the medieval examination system was read by Miss Margaret Concannon, secretary. Two others of equal value were read, one by Miss Alice Bronner on Turkish W'011ze11 of Today, the other by Miss Winifred Brusher on the Dawes Plan. It was decided, however, that since 1929 marks the five-hundredth anniversary of the culmination of the career of Joan of Arc it would be appropriate to have the research Work of the Society for the remainder of the term, on her life and times. At each meeting three speakers pre- sented reports of investigation on this subject which were later open to discussion by members. Through these papers and informal discussions, many interesting facts about this remarkable heroine were brought to the attention of the Society. Social activities of the Society included several informal gatherings. An informal tea was held on February 1 1. On April 1 5, a picnic supper was held at Warm Springs, for it was decided that not only Joan of Arc but also Indian life in early California was the proper field of historical research.

As the center of activities the year 'round, it is a strong factor in enlarging the student body, in fostering college spirit, and in keeping alive a sense of democracy among college members. As the success of college life depends largely on the attitude with which it is entered upon, so the success of athletics is similarly limited. On the other hand, benefits derived from sports are manifold. Cooperation is furthered, -that mutual fellowship through which the seemingly impossible is achieved. The impulse to conquer or to die is awakened. The human body is kept free from ailment, the mind clear and clean, ready at all times for correct action and justifiable accom- plishment. The instinct of fair play, which is demanded on the field, reaches a high development, and influences conduct in other spheres. It is evident that such benefits cannot be passively acquired from sports, rather, personal effort is demanded, and it is this very fact which is the greatest sanction of athletics.

Mother Mary John Gual- bert from Montreal, representing in the West Mother Mary Odilon, the General Superior of the Sisters of the Holy Names, was guest of honor. APRIL zo The sponsors of a proposed card party met and adopted a general plan of organization. MAY II A bridge tea was given by the Alumnae for the purpose of establishing a building fund for the new College of the Holy Names. The letter of invitation stated: The Holy Names Alumnae and Past Pupils' Associa- tion is desirous of creating a foundation to be used, eventually, for the purpose of building a unit to form part of the new, greater College of the Holy Names. The amount raised is not to be merged in the general fund, but will be kept separate and intact to identify the Association and its work as an entity and thus attest to the loyalty of the paSt pupils. The gathering was socially enjoyable, and financial returns were gratifying. The present date of printing is too early to permit the announcement of definite Hgures. Sincere thanks are due to the past students who so loyally manifested their interest in the building projects of today. Mother Marg John Guullaert Guest of Honor HE D1sT1NcT1vE FEATURE of the annual reunion of the Alumnae Association was the presence of Mother Mary John Gualbert, Sub-Assistant General Superior of the Sisters of the Holy Names. On February the tenth, the present student body of the college welcomed the hon- ored guest upon her arrival in Oakland, and heard from her the kindly message of greeting sent by Mother Mary Odilon, General Superior, whom she represented and whose deep interest in the college she was happy to make known. Members of the Alumnae Association attending the luncheon of April the sixth were privileged to receive the same courteous greeting for which they expressed loyal gratitude. Mother Mary Angeline, upon presenting the alumnae and past pupils to the distinguished visitor, declared them to be the flower of young womanhood, faithful representatives of the cultural education received from the Sisters of the Holy Names in California. Mrs. Ambrose Gher- ini, president of the Association, responded by expressing appreciation of a visitor from Canada from whence had come to the Oakland institu- tion those old world manners and customs of refinement which modern America is too prone to forget but which the educational system of the Sisters of the Holy Names carefully treasures. Mother Mary John Gualberr addressed the Association expressing her appreciation of the sentiments declared and complimenting the alumnae upon their achievements. She referred to the atmosphere of culture which she found to be a distinguishing characteristic of the students of Oakland, just as it is of students of the order elsewhere throughout the United States and Canada. It was only a passing contact with a splendid religious educator of rich personality that was enjoyed by the alumnae on that day, but they felt themselves admitted to an intimate acquaintance which has left a very pleasant memory.

Class officers and their committees have shown splendid spirit and executive ability handling the various functions, and the Student Body has been most enthusiastic in supporting and prais- ing their efforts. Contrary to most activities of C. H. N. these class affairs have no tradi- tional foundation. They are due to a recent suggestion of the faculty and for their gracious permission we are deeply appreciative. On the evening of October 19, I928, the Sophomore Class opened the social season of the Fall term with an informal dance given at the Pied- mont Community Center. The affair was in the nature of a welcome to new students of the college. Fall flowers and palms were combined in decorating the Center which presented an attractive picture to the guests. Dance programs engraved in the school colors of red and white were favors of the evening. The decoration committee consisted of Alice Bron- ner and Efale Taber. Winifred Brusher, Lucille Gillick, and Virginia Flynn handled the matter of programs and refreshments efliciently. The three class officers, President Winifred Brusher, Vice-President Alice Bronner, and Secretary Eleanor Hovey, received the guests. Patrons and patronesses for the affair were Mr. and Mrs. N. Hovey, Mr. and Mrs. A. Quinn and Mr. and Mrs. L. Johnson. The Women's City Club of Oakland was the gay setting on January 19, 1929, for the annual Freshman festivities. The simple decorations of palms and ferns complemented perfectly the lighting and period furnish- ing of the ballroom. Hostesses included class officers, Misses Aselstine, Flannery, Failing and Osborne, who cordially extended Welcome, in the name of the Freshman Class, to each guest. The patronesses, who enjoyed the hospitality of the class, viewed the colorful scene from a balcony on the floor above. Those who so kindly officiated were Mesdames Osborne, Comstock, Corcoran, and O'Grady. An informal Staff Dance was held on April 27 at the home of Miss Martha Stein for members of the Year Book Staff and their assistants. Editors agreed that the evening was a pleasant diversion from pen and ink activities. On May 25, college students and their friends were guests of the Fac- ulty at a Bridge Tea. The afternoon Was particularly enjoyed by the students, as it afforded them an opportunity of acquainting others with the pleasant friendliness of Alma Mater. As the final social event of the school year, the Student Body held a formal supper dance May 4, 1929, in the Gold Room of the Palace Hotel. Those receiving Were the Student Body officers, namely, Ann Leary, president, Alice Schween, vice-president, and Winifred Brusher, secre- tary-treasurer. Thanks are due every member of the social committee for her splendid cooperation and gracious support rendered for the success of this dance. .bf S32 r NLM ummm 1 The Calendar IRST SEMESTER August 291MCl66 of registration cards, perfectly blank, and wide-eyed freshmen - also perfectly blank.

College! The Freshman Class had its first meeting today. Wliat do you think of that? If I know the indications, the group bids fair to win its laurels. I realize that I have neglected you shamefully of late, but since regis- tration, with everyone busily flying hither and yon preparing for real work, I could not seem to spare even a tiny minute for you. It has been glorious to be in this old building with its traditions and history-to feel a part of its fine and lovely atmosphere. True, I'm not of the initi- ated yet. Time, Diary dear. Wouldnit it be wonderful to be a strong factor in making our class the driving force of the college? Day-dreams? I think not. September 27, I928. Dear Diary: There is much to do and I waste valuable time with you! Of course you're just bubbling over to hear how our class is progressing. The stu- dent body gave the members of our group a most delightful reception iast Friday, since we are new and very much the freshmen. The friendly informality of the afternoon imbued us with a courage that has been helpful ever since. An informal and a picnic loom on the horizon, and to hear our class discussing the impending events, a visitor might suppose that it is we who are sponsoring the affairs. I,ll tell you about things in general later, so please be patient when I fail to appear during long intervals, for really, I have not a secret from you. With you alone am I as artless as the air and candid as the skies. I trust you are duly appreciative. Adieu, Diary dear. November 5, 1928. Dear Diary: - Here again! And we had our informal - a gorgeous success. Brilliant colors, lovely gowns, and sweet Misses with their charming escorts Hlled r 1 L - , Mm ga?

And our picnic! - although I fear that I was wearing a weird expression when that group picture was snapped. Such is life, Diary. The day went too soon with riding, strolling in secluded paths, and with luncheon on the lawn near the fountain,- effervescent and scintillating in the sunlight and falling in a soft spray on waxen lily pads. I am looking forward, as is everyone, in happy anticipation of the time when we shall have classes at that lovely place. C. H. N., Warm Springs, California. Sounds well, doesn't it? Vale. January 21, 1929. Dear Diary: Happy New Year! During all the holidays, I have not spent one min- ute with you. We freshmen gave an informal which accounts for almost anything irregular that I do. We proved our mettle by managing the affair splendiclly. Congratulations are in order. March 19, 1929. Dear Diary: Cut Retreat is over, and I feel very much as though I had been gener- ated anew. A wonderful sense of peace and quiet comes of taking a spiritual inventory. After all, it is one's attitude towards things that de- termines one's beliefs, and hopes, and trusts. To make that attitude objective necessitates a read justment of things spiritual occasionally. A11 of which are the thoughts of a much glorified freshman. May 28, 1929. Dear Diary: Commencement! Attendant events crowd upon us one after the other without cessation. If you were as busy as I, you wouldn,t have a moment to talk to me either. You must overlook my neglect and listen while I tell you of the formal. Scene: Gold Room of the Palace Hotel. Everyone happy! Everyone radiating that generous spirit which characterizes C. H. N. events. The Campus Bridge Tea was given by Sister Superior on May 25. It V 2 gave an opportunity to the college students to have their friends as guests here for the afternoon. It is difficult to show our college to advantage when classes are in progress and everyone is in the whirl of daily Work, but a day set apart for the purpose of entertaining one's friends on the campus offers real pleasure. Color. Laughter. Melodious voices. Host- esses and guests shared a mutual delight. Wheii next I greet you with It is all so very thrilling! The Sopho- more Class had its first meeting today, please do not think me untrue to mine own. It will be our beloved Freshman Class of today that will enter the college in the latter part of August as the second year group. It will be with the same ideals, the same fineness of heart and mind, but with a still loftier ambition, a still higher goal that it comes back. Witla rejoic- ing, that class will enter again the college - that college so dear, so noble, standing stately and venerable as it touches the shores of sparkling Lake Merritt and sends its tinkling chapel bell - symbolical of all for which it has being - rippling across those lovely Waters.
