Latin MOUNT CARMEL HIGH SCHOOL Every effort is made to build a sound body in the growing boy: in fact. Physical Culture is compulsory for all students unless excused for some valid reason. Valuable aid is given the Carmelite Fathers by the various parent-teachers organizations, which sponsor numerous and varied events which are conducive to the solution of the problem of co-operation between school and home. The oldest of these organizations is the Mother's Club-its purpose is to acquaint the mothers with the problem of the teacher which can be more readily solved through intelligent cooperation of school and home. The Dads' Club is composed of those willing fathers who have volunteered their unstinted efforts to help their boys. Back of this organization is the desire to promote and encourage good fellowship: to promote interest and participation in all student activ- ity, and to cooperate with the faculty in the further- ance of these interests. Through the Dads' Club, intramural sports . . . handball, basketball, free- throw tournaments, swimming. and boxing . . . have become a customary phase in extra-curricular life at Carmel. The students look for and find real pals in their dads. The Queen of Carmel Auxiliary comprises those favored and privileged women whose sons wear the brown habit of the Carmelites, either as students at Niagara, or as Brothers, Eratres, Priests. Its activi- ties extend throughout all of Carmelite America, lend- ing a helpful hand by assembling and embroidering the vestments prescribed for the celebration of Mass and Benediction. by giving socials to aid the Order materially and by that intangible spirit of encourage- ment and cheerfulness which only Mothers can incite in their sons.

History MOUNT CARMEL HIGH SCHOOL The members of the Art Club assist greatly in arousing interest in school affairs through their posters and slogans. The Dramatic Club is composed of those boys whose histrionic talent and ability to act have banded them together. Their annual presentation is usually one of the high-lights of the school year. To those students who are gifted musically the band and orchestras provide an opportunity to pursue their avocation under the skillful guidance of thor- oughly trained musicians. Cognizant of the problems and tendencies of adolescence. the Carmelite Fathers have instituted a series of parties and dances. sponsored by the various organizations in the school: Through these the boys are given an opportunity to learn social adjustment. These social events are conducted by the Seniors and Juniors with some support from the lower classmen. Mt.

Intramural sports are fostered and supervised so that every student may have a fair chance to partici- pate in some form of athletics. In addition to the regular teams which enter Catholic l.eague competi- tion, the faculty has recently revived the plan of having bantam and flyweight teams in basketball which compete with similar teams from other schools.

This Society will co- operate with the Queen of Carmel Auxiliary and in this manner show that both the home and the Order are striving to give to God other Saints. Thus the manifold and divergent requirements of the modern educational institution, as have been enumerated in these pages, are all present in Mt. Carmel. Nothing beneficial to a well balanced and full student life has been omitted. At Carmel a boy finds every opportunity for devel- oping his body and soul as well as mind . . .
