BETTY DAVIS HISTORY Soon the class of '34 will be scheduled to add its record to the history of Kemper Hall. Several years ago this class began with a few members. Each year new girls joined us until we came to our junior A year. During this year we began to take an active part in the general school activities. As Intermediates and Senior A's our members partook successfully in both social and athletic events. We returned to Kemper Hall for our senior year with great expectations. The various departments progressed smoothly under the guidance of their respective leaders. Every thing was undertaken enthusiastically and it is with deep regret that we end our days at Kemper Hall.

One day while typing, I received an invitation to a class luncheon in Kenilworth. Hastily, I shut up my typewriter, buried my manuscript, took the first train, and found Pat deep in a book of Latin proverbs. Athough she entertained once a week and played bridge almost every afternoon, she still found time to satisfy the literary side of her mind. A little while later the dear old classmates began to arrive. Bannie, as plump and rosy as ever, came first. She was just launching herself into great details of her new orangefjuice diet, when Bobbie and her two children arrived. Naturally we had to tell Bobbie how much the children resembled her, and then she made them both play the piano. Next, Edna arrived. She had become quite well known in London for her inter' pretive dancing, but had caught scarlet fever while visiting America, and so she was not able to return to the stage for some time. Soon Wilma and Betty joined us, but since they had become English teachers, we stood amost in awe of them. Wilma's name was now in Who's Who , for she had the largest collection of puns in America, and Betty was in one of her desperate moods because she could not drum English grammar into the minds of her students. Petie was the next to frisk into our midst. She was just as nimble and active as she had always been, and had recently signed a year's contract with the circus. Her part of the performance was that of doing acrobatic stunts on the elephants. Before long, jimmy made her appearance. Of course we had to hear her story, for she had become the mayor of Summerville, and during her spare moments, taught a Sunday School class. ' At this point, Peggy arrived, and what a surprise she gave us. She was a combinf ation of Aimee Semple McPherson and Jane Adams, and spent most of her time converting the miners. She brought us several new Italian recipes for spaghetti, and hopefully suggested that we try them sometime. I was disappointed that Peggy no longer cared for cactus or horses. Elsie was the next to arrive upon the scene. She was still trying to make up her mind whether to stay at home, or go to work. Meanwhile she halffheartedly took a business course, just in case she should suddenly decide. Barbara after many years of intensive study had played in several successful dramas, and her name was rapidly becoming famous on Broadway. She was secretly married to a doctor, but she wouldn't tell us his name. I resolved to go and see her during her next appearance in New York. . And now, Inez rushed in. She was full of excitement, for she had just acquired a fleet of new Chevies and was about to establish a new taxi line from the Kenosha High School to various parts of the city. We were just giving up hope of seeing Marnie, when a telegram was brought in. It contained the following message. L'Sorry to miss you. Am on my way to some' place where there is no such thing as work. And so you see, the class of '34 is still alive and kicking .

Davis KQDAK STAFF In planning the Kodak this year we have tried to combine originality and simplic' ity so as to produce a truly individual volume. VJ e feel that the use of color which has been employed will help to make the 1934 Kodak an impressive annual. Although our budget has been small, due to the willing help of the members of the student body as well as that of the staff, our project has prospered Hnancially. We are particularly grateful to Mrs. Lincoln, Miss Kennedy, and Miss Guthrie who have contributed much toward making the Kodak a success. May I take this opportunity to thank the stalf for its fine cooperation and to wish the staff of next year all the luck in the world, PATRICIA DAvIs, '34 l26l . s , ' :sv , . is . ' - - is .

The Student Council this year has tried especially to keep order angl insure co' operation among the memhers of the school. At our meetings each Sunday night we have discussed difficulties found in the school, and also cases needing discipline. We hope that we have maintained the standards set hy the councils of former years. We are grateful to the Mother Superior and to Sister Flora Therese for their kind advice and assistance. MARGARET THURNBERRY, '34 l27l Standing--Peters, Childs, Barnes, lanes, B. Allen Sittinggflj, Davis, Anderson, Kutill, Chairman: Carpenter, Ed. Hannahs EXECUTIVE CQMMITTEE The Executive Committee is composed of the Mother Superior, Sister Flora Therese, Miss Asgaard, Mrs. Lincoln and the chairman of each department in the school, including the class presidents of the upper school. A meeting is held every six weeks and each member reads a report of the functionings of her department. These reports are followed by discussions by which the members may make suggestions and recommendations. SALLY KUTILL, '34 l28l Left to right Carpenter, B. Allen, E. Allen. Barnex.

Hannahs, Vwfhyte, Anderson, Vilas ATI-ILETIC ASSOCIATIQN Every Kemper girl is a memher of the Athletic Association and this year we are trying to make our program one which will appeal to all. Thus there will he one hundred per cent interest and participation in all of the activities of our little sport world. Three times during each semester, a mass meeting is held at which every one is present with her criticisms and suggestions. Otherwise, the association is represented hy a council, consisting of a president, two team captains, a secretaryftreasurer, a repf resentative from each class, and our athletic director, Miss Lanctot. It is the duty of this council to organize the sport program for the year, plan the NewfGirlfOldfUirl Picnic, the two athletic hanquets, and the SissifKuku choosing. Besides setting the dates for camp and class hockey, haskethall, and hasehall games, the council arranges for tennis and pingpong tournaments, swimming meets, and the track meet. At the heginning of the year the council informs the new girls ahout the point system and the rules and regulations of the department. That this year has proved one of the most successful and happiest of all, is largely due to the efforts of Miss Lanctot and Sister Marry Vsfilhelmina, and to the cooperation and interest of the entire school.

Davis, Anderson, President: Thornberry TRCDUBADOURS The Troubadours, the dramatic organization of Kemper Hall, has been in existence for a number of years. The purpose for which it was originally organized was to encourage dramatic appreciation, Its membership is composed of those who not only have dramatic ability but who also have high scholastic standings. Much good is evolved from its activities since it enhances a better understanding and interpretation of the drama and developes poise. The group meets weekly to transact its general business and to select the plays to be presented during the year. Under the able direction of Miss Portia Martin, we have thus far presented Tarts , The Sentimental Scarecrow , and Sweethearts . We are now preparing to present Pomander Walk! The final production of the year, the annual commencement play, has not yet been selected. Vw7e feel that it will give full evidence of the progress that we have made.

Davis GUILD OF THE HGLY CHILD Une of the most sacred of Kemper Hall memories will always center around the Guild of the Holy Child. Every year the Guild chooses new members from the three upper classes, and they are on probation until February. New members were received into the Guild this year on the night of Shrove Tuesday by Bishop Ivins. The annual Guild Sale was held on December ninth, following a set of Troubaf dour plays. During the rest of the year we worked on articles for charity. At the Epiphany Banquet on January thirteenth, the old English Custom of cut' ting the cake to see who will find the ring and the bean was carried out. After the Banquet the Guild gave a dance in the Gymnasium. We all wish to thank Sister Flora Therese for her guidance and help during the year.

Its aim is to encourage girs interested in journalism, and to send out good publicity for the school. The Club consists of two members from each class. These members meet regularly once a week to write up important happenings, All our items which have been printed in the newspapers we keep in a scrapbook of which we are very proud. This year we have been active in sending out notices of athletic events, honor rolls, social activities, recitals, and plays to the hometown papers of the students.

The latter consisted of the Lower School while the other two were represented hy the upperclassmen. The annual Christmas Carol Service was held on Decemher seventeenth. I Sing of a Maiden That is Matchlessf' a new carol written hy Father Douglas, as well as a new group of carols hy Van Holtz were sung, in addition to many of the traditional hymns and carols. On the Feast of the Purification, with its Candlemas procession of lights, the choir sang the Missa Marialis with the Npropersu of the Feast, traditional plainsong. The choir also sang the propers of Palm Sunday and assisted on Easter Eve at thc first Vespers of Easter when the new tire was kindled and the paschal candle lighted to hurn throughout the forty days of Easter. On Good Friday St. Dunstan's Choir sang Kastalskys Penitent Thief, and a capella, those two most heautiful Bach Chorals, O Sacred Head, and 'iAh Holy Jesu.

Hannahs Peters Childs Whyte Lane This year we have played no outside games and instead of the regular varsity, a home varsity has been elected. These girls were chosen not only for their ability to play hockey but for their good sportsmanship. Honorable mention and recognition for improvement have been given to those girls who have worked hard to improve their game. We are proud to say that three of our girls made the North Shore Hockey Team, which is made up of a group of girls along the North Shore. One of our girls played in the national hockey meet in Evanston. Betty Davis '34 l36l INTER-CAMP SPORTS The competition between the Sissis and the Kukus is the prominent feature of our athletic activities. The Sissis succeeded in winning the hockey, which is the most popular of the fall sports at Kemper Hall, but the score was evened when shortly afterwards the Kukus won the greatest number of points during Posture Week.. Winter brought basketball, along with swimming and pingfpong. In the winter basket- ball takes the place of hockey and although the Sissis are in the lead at the present time, there are still many more games to be played. Another important contest was the swimming meet in which once again the Sissis proved the champions. The battle is far from ended, and both teams are striving eagerly for the victory, which will not be decided until after the contests in baseball, archery, tennis, and track are completed, bringing the athletic year to a close. A cup will be awarded to the winning camp at the final athletic banquet. Alice Ann Anderson '35 SWIMMING On Mondays and Thursdays a group of Kemperites dashes off to the Y. M. C. A. pool for a jolly hour of splashing and swimming. For half the period an instructress laboriously explains the art of diving and swimmingg and then comes the fun. Some girls exhibit their accomplishments in diving while others, in an attempt to gain a sylphflike figure, swim back and forth interminably. At the mid-semester swimming meet, enthusiasm and excitement predominated as the Sissis swam their way to victory. All hopefully anticipate the final meet in June. I Marian Schriber '34 RIDING During the autumn and spring season, riding is one of the most popular sports at Kemper. Every Friday afternoon and Saturday morning a group of enthusiastic young riders sets out for a delightful two hours. After an invigorating ride through the woods and along the beach, the riders return exhausted, but looking forward to their next ride.

It marks the entrance of the new pupil to the ranks of the school, and the event never ceases to impress her with its beauty and simplicity. On the evening of May 23rd, the new girls of each class give a short entertainment in the gymnasium. The next morning a service in commemoration of the founders of the school is held in the chapel, after which the Bishop's Hall is decorated with spring flowers by the seniors. In the evening, new girls and old girls assemble in the gymnasium which has been attractively decorated. Before long, the seniors slowly enter in their beautiful dresses, and form an aisle. All eyes are turned upon the queen, who walks down the center, acknowledging the bows of her classmates. She is dressed in white, and is wearing the beautiful traditional veil. As she seats herself upon the throne, the seniors form in clusters of color around her. Each new girl, being escorted to the queen by an old girl, is tapped upon the shoulder with a Sceptre. After each receives her lantern, the girls sing the song of Founders' Day. The procession wends its way along the paths of the campus, the bobbing lanterns making an unforgettable scene. The girls of the school later attend a dance in the gymnasium. Founder's Day may be over, but it lives in the memory of every one who saw it.

His tail is his flag of truce because it is short and stubby with long, wavy, white hair hanging down from the end of it. He waves this back and forth pleadingly when I am going to punish him for being naughty. Speaking of being naughty, he often finds a fascinating hole to dig in and when I call him he pretends to be deaf and if I shout and stamp my foot he jumps and looks innocently up between his paws and waves the flag of truce. Very coy I call it. Since he has been digging in a hole he is very dirty so I give him a bath, and what a job that is! He sits in the water with his nose pointed straight up in the air and his brown eyes roll from side to side to watch every move I make. If I try to reassure him that everything is all right, he pokes out his long tongue and licks my hand. Drying him is still harder because he has decided that it is time to be playful. He dashes at the towel and gets all wound up in it until only his little black button nose is sticking out. This is all very well but there is the problem of unwinding him, so I grab one end of the towel and he the other and after he has unwound himself we have a tug of war. This is usually repeated and repeated until he is all dry and we both are too exhausted to move. When we have both rested a bit, Boto dives under the bed which is quite low and scratches his back by rubbing it back and forth on the bottom of the bed. He shows how much he loves this by giving little grunts and snorts of delight. Boto's ears are so long that they get in his food so I pin them back with a bobbie pin while he eats. He does not realize how funny he looks or he would be too insulted to eat, because he is a proud little dog. Once I made the big mistake of trying to teach him to sit up, but every time I had him nicely propped up he would become just like jelly and crumble into a heap on the floor. I was so disgusted that I stopped trying to teach him. The next day when I was eating he came to me as nicely as you please, and begged for some ice cream, which is his favorite dish besides meat. The little rascal! At night when I go to bed he lies at the foot of my bed and falls asleep at peace with the world. oggngl- .

It is the year 1624. Standing before his easel we see Frans Hals, squinting with a practised eye at a young officer of the army, who has seated himself with a pompous air on the opposite side of the room. The officer is in a hurry to see his portrait, and urges the artist to paint faster. II ' It is 1934. The finished portrait of the young man is hanging, among others, in the main room of the Wallace Collection in London. We cannot see it, but the spirit of the young officer is there also, gazing with mingled pride and dubiousness at the form which it once inhabited. It sees two women of doubtful age and character approaching, and draws back to watch them. The following conversation ensues: Hey, Sal- -lookit that gent! Sorta handsome, ain't he? Yea, but my Gawd! Who'd go with a guy totin' a soupfstrainer like that? So they pass on. The spirit stands there, quite dismayed. So that is what they thought of his portrait? He feels sure that there must be someone, somewhere, who enjoys it. With a flash of determination the spirit quits the building, resolved to discover how others regard his picture. We find him first in the library of a home belonging to a very wealthy family. A heated argument is going on among the members of the family concerning where their latest painting is to be hung. The father feels that it would show to the best advantage over the library table, but his wife is certain it should go over the fireplace. Percival, I should feel that my new blue drapes are lost without that picture to set them off! The husband states that people would never notice his hunting trophy unless this picture were near it. In great disgust the spirit leaves the house. We enter the old art shop in time to hear a heated discussion over a beautiful and expensive copy of the portrait. Mn Danielson, argues the shop keeper, you could find no better copy of any painting for your collection. This is correct in every detail and shade of color--I do not see your objection! I know, my good sir, I know-but my collection will be portraits of English men, and this man, I understand, was a Dutchman! More than slightly wrathful, the spirit bursts from the room, and we have difficulty in keeping up with him to our next visiting place. . . We have traveled to the slums of a great city. With the spirit we enter into a room furnished with only the barest necessities. Everywhere indescribable poverty is l49l apparent, except in one corner, where a cheap copy of The Laughing Cavalier hangs. The poor mother is protesting against the pawning of her last possession, the picture. Don't you see this picture has been with me all my life, through good times and bad, and that to pawn it would mean severance of the last tie that remains of my' childhood? I love the portrait more than anything I have ever owned, and to dispose of it would bring even worse discouragement and dispairf' With a lighter step the spirit returns to the home of the Wallace Collection, assured that somewhere his portrait has brought joy into a sad heart. The picture of The Laughing Cavalier still hangs there, with a smile for the foolish and the wise who pass by. That smile has been described as supercilious, but you know better, as I do. MARGARET THORNBERRY '34 Second Prize MY KITTEN . I never knew how much fun a kitten was until Puffy came to my house. She was only a little furry ball, weighing less than a pound. Her teeth were like tiny pieces of ivory and only a few of them were peeping through. Her tongue was so small it seemed to take her a long time to lap up her dinner of one tablespoon of milk. 'irfVAfter each meal, I love to watch her take her bath, especially her face washing. She uses first one paw and then the other as a washcloth, carefully licking a damp spot on the paw before each rub over her face. She seems so clean and dainty. Her days she spends in playing and sleeping. It is such fun to watch her play with the toys we have for her, a few marbles, a cotton mouse, a monkey, and a paper bag. I guess that she pretends that her toys are alive, because she is very serious in parts of her play. After she has crept up to a marble or her mouse, she pounces on it, then paws it about. Marbles knocking about in a paper bag are a deep mystery to her. She can hear them but can't see them. So she pushes the bag around the floor always peeping under it in hope of finding a marble. , When she hears me coming, she hides around a. corner and jumps out to frighten me. She arches her back as if she were very angry. Then when I jump at her she runs wildly across the room hoping that I will chase her. She is very much interested in watching the birds from the windows. Once when I had her out in the yard she climbed to the top of a tree after a bird, but of course the bird flew away. Then Puffy had a hard time getting down. She fell the last twenty feet, but the ground was soft and she did not hurt herself. Her favorite bed is on the window seat over a radiator, although at night she sleeps in her bed in the basement. MARY KNEIBLER, 7th Grade l50l TWG SIDES QF WINTER Everything was covered with a thick coat of snow. The fence-posts looked like ghosts that had forgotten to disappear during the night. The pine trees were drooping over and reminded one of old men with bended backs and long, flowing, white beards. The tall elms stood in all their glory, magnificently stretching their long white arms toward the sky. The clouds floating lazily along must have been covered with snow too, for they were of the purest white, a beautful sight to behold, gliding smoothly in the azure heavens. The sun peeked out from behind a cloud and made the icicles hang' ing on the roof glitter and glisten in the light. The roof itself was red and its graceful white slope had a sparkling beauty all its own. Soft snow drifts were leaning against the house, looking like huge heaps of pillows sprinkled with diamonds. On the win- dows jack Frost had painted fairy castles and little children had drawn pumpkin faces through them. In the house there was a large fire in the fireplace. It made the room warm and cozy and made the pumpkin on the window show a glowing smile. The baby gave gurgling sounds of delight when the flames leaped up towards the chimney and blinked at her. Chestnuts were sputtering and crackling on the hearth and marshmallows were being toasted on long forks. Inside it was a happy scene with the merry children and the glowing hearth, but outside there was dazzling majestic silence.

EDNA ALLEN '34 MY DOG Brown eyes that gleam from a pointed face, A cold nose thrust in my hand, Pleading for walks by a wag of a tail, And a bark that I understand. BETTY ALLEN '36 TRAVELS WIT!-I A SCOTTIE Captain McTavish and I grew tired of the humdrum life in New York so we drew out what money we had in the bank and set off to Europe where I intended to write a travel book. Captain didn't like the big steamer much, as we had bad weather going across and neither he nor anyone else could keep his footing. Consequently, being the smallest on the boat except for a very snooty Peke , he seemed always at the bottom of the pile! He finally settled this by hopping up on my bed. We went directly to London from Liverpool and ran into a typical London fog. I had some friends there and they were going to show us the sights. However, the whole time we were in London there was a dense fog and we couldn't see a thing. We took an aeroplane across the channel to Paris and as we took off Captain remarked, Aff arr wrr woof! which I knew meant, My, but I'm glad to get out of that dismal place! Even the dogs are cold and haughty! Shake, old timer! I said, and he gravely proffered his paw. We reached Paris without mishap and only stayed long enough to hire a donkey to carry our bundles on our trip through southern France. Captain didn't like French dogs either! Silly, vain things! he sniffed. The peasants we met along the way were very affable and kind though I couldn't understand what they said. Captain was uneasy. I don't like those jabbering idiots, he growled, I can't understand them. I calmed him down and when I invited one to lunch with me, by signs and gestures, he was quite friendly. That night we came to a very pretty village where I decided to stop as there was a nice hotel. After dinner we went for a stroll through the town. We saw numerous dogs and Captain seemed to be quite friendly with them until suddenly he leaped on a small Pomeranian that happened to be passing by with its owner! The owner started ejaculating wildly in French and I sternly commanded Cap' tain to stop. The battle ended as suddenly as it had started. The Pomeranian ran to its master yelping and Captain sat down and started licking his scratches. I tried to apologize to the owner but he didn't understand a work of English and I didn't under' stand French. However, it was evident that he was exceedingly angry so I decided to go back to the hotel. From the kindly innfkeeper who could speak English I learned that the man was the big shot of the town. In a few minutes the police chief came in and told me that he would have to shoot Captain for assulting a poor helpless dog. Hurridly I grabbed my baggage, called Captain, and ran out to the stable where I untied the donkey. The chief of police ran after us shouting and waving his gun. He didn't dare shoot because I held Captain in front of me. When I questioned Captain he said that the strange little dog had insulted him and called him a Yankee ruflian! We had a good time at a French monastery where we stayed for a week. The monks grew so fond of Captain that they cried when we left. However, that was the only place in all France in which we had a good time.
