Guild 0? the Holy Child Every year for more than sixty years, certain Kemper Hall girls have been chosen as members of the Guild of the Holy Child. First, the girls are on a term of probation from November until February; then they are received as Guild mem- bers 0n the eve of the Feast of the Purification. The Guild reception at that- time is a happy and sacred memory to all who take part. This year, six new girls were ad- mitted, making a total of nine in the Guild. In the meetings every Monday night, the girls work on articles for the Guild Sale in December. After Christmas they worked on garments for Kenosha charity. The Guild sends donations to different Missions, among which are Father Joyner in the South Dakota Pine Ridge Agency, to St. NIichaelys Mission in Ethete, VVyom- ing, and t0 NIiss Cornwall-Legh in St. Barnabas hlission at Kusatsu, Japan, for the support of one leper child. We also give a certain amount to Father VVolcott to be used for needy cases at St. Andrews Mission in Kenosha. Continued interest in the Guild is shown by Alumnae members, and their gifts are sincerely appreciated. We hope that the Guild will have the same success and happiness in the future that it has had in the past. MARY KELLER, T33. T421

Choir The Choir, in its three divisions, Saint Dunstanky Saint Gregorys and Saint Raphaer, includes nearly alltthe boarders in the school and some of the day pupils. This year we added Missa Dominicalis to our collection of masses; it is another of Father DouglasT adaptions from ancient plainsong. The Christmas Carol Service, which was given the Sunday afternoon before Christmas vacation, proved to be very successful. We added to it some new material and sang much that we had sung in former years. A group of girls from the Choir volunteered to help sing for the profession of a sister. After Christmas we worked on a new project, a Hhistorical recital which was given in May and included both secular and religious music ranging by date of composition from the polyphonic school of the sixteenth century through the classic, romantic, and modern periods. In this venture, we had the assistance of the piano department. We wish to thank Miss Blorse and Sister Hildegarde for their interest and direc- tion, and to praise also the cobperation 0f the entire Choir during the year. ISABELLE WHITING, ,33. I431
