MAIN ENTRANCE Studs; of Time 7860-7885 N 1859 Sister Superior Louise, the Provincial Superior of the Sisters of Notre Dame in America, left the Notre Dame Convent at Sixth Street, Cincinnati, to take a long and dusty ride to the little village of Reading. The result of this journey was the purchase of the Edwards, estate, consisting of fifty-seven acres. Only a small portion of the land on top of the hill had been Cleared. the remainder being unreclaimed woodland. If one of the pioneer Sisters or pupils could return today, she would never recognize the extensive buildings, the lawus, driveways, gardens, and farmlands. Wjithin the following year, the twenty-one Sisters who formed the first community at Niount Notre Dame, and the first group of pupils who were the nucleus of the Mountain Alumnae began their residence in the nearly completed building. A few months later the Civil War broke out and iVlount Notre Dame became the home of northern and southern girls alike. General Sherman's daughter was one of the students, and when the former made his famous HMarch to the Sea , the arguments between the Northerners and Southerners became heated. Much tact and strategy on the part of the faculty were necessary to maintain peace within the precincts of the Mountain. On December 10, 1868, the stately new Chapel, built of Cincinnati Lime- stone quarried 0n the grounds, was consecrated under the title of the Immacu- late Conception, but nearly ten years more had passed before the church was beautifully frescoed, and the black walnut pews, carved by the Sisters, com- pleted' The increase in the number of resident pupils necessitated many improve- ments in the buildings. An octagonal wing surmounted by a cupnla was added to the school to provide space for music moms, and a house of two and one-half stories connected the church with St. Joseph Building. At this time also the property was extended by the purchase of adjoining land. The year 1878 marked the planting of the long rows of trees that give so much charm to Maple Avenue . At the Close of the first twenty-five years, Niount Notre Dame was well established through the sacrifices of the pioneer Sisters and the cooperation and generous support given them by their pupils. Truly could the Sisters say With Blessed Mother Julia, The good God is so very good. CAMILLE O'BRIEN. page eleven ST. MARY HALL 1885-7910 QBFE progress of the boarding-sehool continued steadi1y, and the number of resident pupils increased yearly. Dlany times specimens of class work merited high praise at educational exhibitions. The increasing number of pupils necessitated the forming of plans for building an annex to the old school. Finally in September, 1905, Classes were opened in the new building, St. 1V1ary Hall. The solemn dedication by Archbishop Moeller was held on A1umnae Day in October,1905. One year later an adequate gymnasium was constructed, a project which added greatly to the pleasure of the students. In 1898, the Mount Notre Dame Alumnae Association was forma11y established, and him. Kate Hayes Campbell became its hrst president. This organization has given for thirty-seven years most 10ya1 support and coopera- tion to The h'lountain even though its members are widely scattered through- out North America and the southern countries. One long-Continued and out- standing work of the Alumnae is the Trinity College Sch01arship founded by them and given every four years since 1900 to the most deserving pupil of The hiountain. A former pupil had presented in 1897, the beautiful marble main altar in the church. In preparation for the Golden Jubilee ceIebration of The Moun- tain in 1910, the frescoing of the church was renewed, marble aisles were laid, and polished oak Hoors placed under the pews. Two marble side altars and a marble altar railing were the generous gifts of friends of The Mountain. Through the efforts of zeanus members of the Alumnae, hand-Carved Stations of the Cross and exquisite, imported stained-glass pictured windows put the Enishing touches to Nlount Notre Dames Chief pride, its Church. Again there was cause for repeating B1essed Mother Iuha's favorite refrain, The good God, He is so very good! JANET LOUIS. page thirteen ZOOM Zouhmmomx NEH.

The festivities began with the Golden Jubilee Alumnae Reunion for which 01d pupils enthusiastically gathered from far and near. The spiritual celebration was the most beautiful and inspiring The Niountain had ever witnessed? The procession consisting ofnne hundred and thirty whiteeelad pupils, fifty members of the clergy, and the Most Reverend Archbishop Moeller preceded the Solemn Pontifical Mass offered by His Excellency during which an eloquent tribute to the untiring zeal of the Sisters was paid by the Very Reverend Doctor Shee. The XVorId War brought its share of hardship and anxiety to The Moun- tain, and the pupils did their bitn toward the assistance given the Notre Dame convents in the war stricken area of Belgium. The signing of the Armistice brought much rejoicing. and the pupils celebrated with a Peace Parade around the grounds. Their exultation was short-lived for early in 1919 the dreaded I'Hu epidemic broke out, and the Sisters found it necessary to Close school. Truly this was the saddest period in the history of Mount Notre Dame for the deadly disease claimed the lives of two of the pupils at the school and another at her home. In 1930 the Parent-Teacher Association was established at Mount Notre Dame with iWrs. John C. Fanger as president. This organization has gradually grown into a powerful ally of The Niount Notre Dame Alumnae Association. Under the excellent cooperation of the present officers of the ParentuTeacher Association Mas.

'ludilor the Diamond Iubilee celebration has been an outstanding success. Their generous efforts have been expended unstintingly during several months past. and truly The iWountain is reaping the reward socially and financially. Now at this point in our history, the Diamond Jubilee year Of Mount Notre Dame, we look back with whole-hearted admiration t0 the founders and to all past Sisters, pupils, and friends who have helped to raise the standard of the school to its high point. The Mountain extending- to Heavenis blue dome its cross-crowned spire will always remain most dear to the heart of every pupil, and for a third time we can repeat the grateful motto of Blessed Mother Julia, How good is the good Godl MARTHA STRUEWING. page fgfttcrl Benediction at the Mountain AVE you ever heard of things being the same and yet different? It is 6g, thus with Benediction. This ceremony is enacted within every Catholic church; yet in no other sacred edifice is it quite so deeply moving and inspiring as at Mount Notre Dame. There is a difTerence even though the ritual is the same. Perhaps it is because of the contrast with Class- work that Benediction aHOFdSathe contrast Of the rush of every-day life with the soothing quiet of God's Presence. Can you imagine a 1in rearing its beauteous white head high above a profuse mass of varicolored flowers and brambles? Such a picture would be thought provoking, would if: not? That white lily suggests God rising high above the joys and trials of life, pure, unspotted, and beautiful. That white lily is Christ inviting saints and sinners to rise above evil and enjoy with Him the marvels of heaven. That white lily is Benediction, standing alone amidst the smiles and tears of school life at The Mountain. Then, too, maybe it is because the chapel is so beautiful, is so fitting a home for the Divine Guest that I love this weekly ceremony in which I am privileged to participate and which I find so strangely different from others that I attend. I have often wondered what the other girls think of as they kneel in chapel during Benediction. I wonder whether they, too, see the gold candelabra and ' pictured windows bow in adoration before the Deity. They cannot help seeing page .n'xleen the incense as, rising upwards, it curls lovingly around the sacred monstrance wib'h its Blessed Inmate. I wonder whether they, too, join their voices with the chirping birds and sighing breeze and whisper, ttGod, I love You.n I am sure they realize how pleased He must be as He looks upon the artistically arranged flowers in pretty vases and receives their scented messages of love. Singing. too, seems strangely sweeter in the chapel at The Blountain. My heart swells with love as the voices rise in crescendo, and I regret that the rest of the world cannot enjoy this most elevating of devotions with me. Cares automatically slip from my shoulders, and worries of assignments and tests disappear as I join my voice wholeheartedly with the others and Sing O Salutaris Hostia . There is perhaps no other moment of the school week that is more affecting than the moment of elevation during Benediction. It is exquisite in its sim- plicity. The priest at the altar bending low before the sacred monstrance rises and turns, the tinkle of a bell, an awed silence, a second, and the Lord of lords and God of men has come down on earth again for the pleasure and blessing of the Sisters and students of Mount Notre Dame. Many a tale of woe is told, many a prayer for help. To them all He listens with His patient understanding, and soothes and comforts as only He can do. During that transient moment all present realize the strength and simplicity of their religion and receive the courage to fight lifejs battles anew with the graces God imparts to their souls. Benediction, most heauteous of beautiful devotions! Do you wonder at. my certainty when I say that the memory of Benediction, undimmed by the passage of years, will rear its way high above my other remembrances of school life, enveloping me in the sunlight of Godis Presence and urging me along the path of sanctifying grace to heaven? RUTH FLEGE. LE4 gD'LOOf They say there is no God. IfI should stand upon a hill, And suddenly see the earth stand still. And feel the stars shower burning sparks on me. And see no life and breath within a tree; IfI should find the wind no longer clean, And see the moon had lost its pale white sheen; IfI should feel all lost in soul and mind, Discover sin and shame and nothing kind; If I should find no breathless beauty in the night, And see the sun lose all its sanguine light, Perhaps I wouldnlt scorn them when They say there is no God.

We are deeply grateful to you, the present day faculty. and to all the teachers of the past seventy-five years. Year after year girls have stepped courageously, yet half reluctantly, from the loving embrace of Nlount Notre Dame. Because you have taught them to trust in God and to work for His honor and glory, they have been unafraid. Thus do we leave, but may we say once again that we are truly grateful and we thank you. page eighfecn HENRIETTA BAUER QROWN hair, a slight figure, a queer combination of friendliness and haughtiness make us feel that we know little about Hennie. She does her work, rings the bells, writes. her letters, seems to know the date. of every social event and everyone's pet interest. Hennie is moody; nevertheless she is trustworthy and well-liked. At times she is eager to help and advise. share our joys, and grow loyally indignant at our grievances. Because we do not wholly under- stand her, Hennie has acquired our slightly puzzled but sincere friendship. Ve shall always remember Heunie for her skill in sewing and painting, her intense loyalty, her familiarity with the practiced side of life. page I'wznfy RUTH BOTHE munmiwide. childish, brown eyes, a quiet voice, a certain timid air seem to characterize her. Though talkative at times, Ruth is more often in a quiet but not particularly serious mood. She worries about her lessons. sincerely hopes that she will never lose her slimnessj and takes a frank delight in letters from out of town. We suspect Ruth of having a temper, and yet it has rarely been substituted for her habitual gentleness. Sweet, gracious, Ruth will obtain from the world the love and sincerity which she generously gives. page twain iyvone BETTY DAILEY 1w , $ETTY has an air of reserve which she seldom lays aside, She seems to be far zlilvay From 115 as though she were enjoying some little iOliE that we know nothing of.

Her efficiency, her unselfishness were always a source of strength to us. As home room teacher of the seniors, she was ever helping them, preparing them for life. instilling into them a part of her intrepid spirit. When Sister Mary de Lourdes became ill soon after the Christmas holi- days, we understood how much we depended upon her, and we looked forward eagerly to the day when she would he with us once more. But the days became weeks, winter made way for spring, and she did not return. We learned of her death on the first day of Our Ladyis month, and a lowering shadow of sorrow fell upon The Mountain. Sister Mary de Lourdes attended school at Mount Notre Dame Later she returned as a teacher and devoted her life to God and her pupils. We have learned many things from her, the necessity of fulfilling our duties, the greatness of a good and holy life. Her death has left a deep void in our hearts. The generous, strong spirit of our beloved teacher will be ever present at The Mountain as faithful and true as the vigil light that burns before the altar of God. We will try throughout our lives to uphold the ideals which she has taught us. We are confident that from her heavenly home Sister Mary de Lourdes will protect her children and will pray for them as she did during her life on earth. page thirty-Jeven cfesminigaazcsx; N the memorable year 1931, Agnes Clittord, Mary Frances Heekin. Janet Louis, Anne Mollenkamp, Betty Pexton. and Margaret Schoenig welcomed into their class a rather noisy and enthusiastic crowd of curious girls who were promptly dubbed freshies . Those comprising this group were Henrietta Bauer, Ruth Bothe, Dorothy Mae Brickwedde. Betty Dailey, Ruth Flege, Angela Gahegan, Adele Plogman, Mary Elizabeth Ryan, Martha Struewing, lane Torbeck. and Ruth Thamann. The year was spent mostly in consulting individual programs, in following one another through bewildering corridors, in bringing the wrong hooks to Classes, and in trying to accustom themselves to the seemingly incessant ringing of innumerable bells, In the second year Agnes Clificord, Angela Gahegan, and Diary Elizabeth Ryan did not return, but Mary Jo Lehman, Niarforie O'Connell, and Nlargaret Mencke graciously replaced them. By this time the sophs , having become adjusted, began to look about them and take a more active interest in aFfairs. Like babies peeping over the top of the crib, they saw their world enlarge with each experiment. The year passed pleasantly, leaving the girls with smiling faces, eager to begin their junior year. Although the responsibilities became somewhat heavier in the third year. the fifteen girls, now without Dorothy Mae Brickwedde and Jane Torbeck, came to the realization that school life at Niount Notre Dame was interesting and enjoyable indeed. Helen Hile and Dorothy Schneider came to swell the ranks to the original number, fifteen. The juniors laughed, worked, played, and showed to everyone what they could accomplish in studies, music, and athletics. In this year rrthe fifteen surpassed themselves indeed for they gave a prom t0 the departing Class of 1954. a performance never before recorded, but a proceeding now written in the annals of Mount Notre Dame. In the fourth year, the fifteen smiling girls minus Helen Hile and plus Camille OJBrien, carried their burdens cheerfully and lightly for they now had a more satisfactory and stable glimpse of their end and aim. They paused a while to look about them and to realize that they were now seniors and in that much envied position which had appeared so much a dream four years ago. Then they plunged determinedly into their work to make this year the most successful of their school life. Only by their persistency and splendid cooperation were. they able to put forth the Christmas Operetta, The htagi's Gift, and the senior play, Three Pegs, and meet with the success that was theirs. One keenly felt sorrow cast its shadow over the entire second semester The class was deprived of its devoted home mom teacher, Sister h'iary de Lourdes, who was forced to give up her work in the classroom because ofserious illness. It was only when Sisterls guiding hand was wrested away that' they realized what a prop she had been and what a debt of gratitude they owed her. This year was a hard and busy one which tested the mettle of the fifteen to the utmost but left them still determined, smiling, and eager to go on With sincere thank you's to the greatest and to the least of those who had in any way aided them along their journey to knowledge, and with a reluctant farewell to The Mountain, the fifteen young girls now fast changing into steady-eyed women, turned their faces toward the waiting world, still smiling BETTY DAILEY. page llu'rly-czlrjlzl C7511; 50??

PROLOGUE Doctor HeekinaHow is our patient today, Nurse? Any better? Nurse-VVell, Doctor Heekin, I fear she will live but a few hours now.

Doctor-Yes, now I remember. You've changed a lot yourself. What do you think of Camille? Not much I wager. If she dies, she will be the first patient I have lost in five years. Margaret-She looks more dead than alive. I never thought she would come to this so soon. Who is that just coming in? I do believe it is lVIartha.

Anne-If she does not recover, we can surely feel that she has had every atten- tion an excellent doctor can give.

Doors keep many secrets. They hold sorrows and joys, and yet by their sympathetic silence betray nothing. There is something,r noble about doors. Perhaps it is because they were once trees, breathing in the fragrance of the earth and the cleanness of the sky. They are quiet, they are still; they see all and tell nothing. Dark, heavy, old doors are the most mysterious. They have caught the gleam 0f candle light centuries ago; they have felt the swish of heavy satins, heard plots against kings and countries, approved of wise utterances, mocked at foolish ones, and remained silent, Old doors have witnessed the birth of children, heard the patter of their small feet. watched them grow from child- hood to manhood, seen their hair turn to gray and their voices grew weak and trembling. These old doors are the wisest for they have beheld the follies of many generations, and they are familiar with the frailties of human nature. New doors have no depth of mellowness, but they are filled with hope and expectancy. They realize that they are destined to know many things. and perhaps they wonder at the nature of these things. Shall their great store of knowledge consist of happiness or sorrow? The charm of new doors lies not in what they are but what they will be. Heavy doors are somber. They seem to absorb everything. At times they appear to be critical as though they are weighing oneis actions with those of another person whom they have Watched. The results may fall short of expectations, but the doors say nothing. Thin doors lack the personality of the heavier ones; yet they also have seen and heard a great deal. They are not so secret, but often these thin doors have been blessed. If there is some loved one on the other side of the door, how welcome is the faint sound of footsteps and dear, familiar movements that wafts its way through the light partition. Excitingly romantic are the French doors. Made of Clear glass, they open on to terraces bathed in white moonlight. They catch the breath of roses and invite strolls in dusky gardens. These French doors hold no deep secrets, only sweet, breathless surprises and little confidences. page fifiy-ft've - I love the front doors of houses. They keep out the cold wind and snow, the hardness and selfishness of the world. They guard and caress the Hrelight, the tenderness, the beauty of a home. These doors wear bright wreaths of holly in the winter time, and they swing open to blue skies and soft breezes in the summer. Sweetest of all, these doors that welcome weary hearts and tired spirits. . Nursery doors are fondled by grubby fingers; they are clung to by small, grasping hands. They have witnessed stern scoldings and fairy tales. They have watched little slumberers night after night, caught the early morning sun, and heard sleepy Good mornings . The nursery doors are tolerant. They never murmur when dolls and books are flung at them, nor do they seem to care when peppermint candy mars their smoothness Dear, homey, kitchen doorsl They are opened and shut many times a day; they know when cookies are made and when there is spinach for dinner. They receive all the tantalizing odors, and they watch the candles on birth day cakes increase year by year. Kitchen doors are loved and revered. They are never forgotten. Long years may pass, yet people grow sentimental at the thought of the kitchen doors that meant so much to them during their Childhood. The doors that are most beautiful are the church doors. They swing open widely, lovingly, and they offer peace and serenity. Without the church doors is the clatter and rush of the great world; within are the cool shadows, the flickering light, love of the highest type. Church doors know many won- drous things. They know the sweet strains of the organ. the cloudy incense, the sorrow and sin of the world, and the tender love and forgiveness of God. All doors are not material. There are those great. silent doors of the past. Tears, anger, tender words, carefree laughter. all the human emotions lie behind these doors. Through the ages the world has known success and failure, goodness and wickedness Crimes that shook the foundations of the earth have been committed. There have been noble deeds that have shed a bright light over all the world. All these things are gone forever, locked within the doors of the past; only the memory of them has remained with us. The doors of the future are closed tightly. They are not locked; they have never been opened. Nor can they stay shut; they must be flung open. These cloors are fearful yet strangely hopeful. What will they reveal? a 365 gaging 519cm I saw a star glide down the sky, Blinding the north as it went by, T00 burning and too quick to hold, T00 lovely to be bought or sold.

Every door is ajar, suitcases and tennis rackets are piled in the corridors. There are flying figures and eager young voices while the Sisters, calm and efflcient, are busily occupied with the many details that put the finishing touches to the school year. To the Sisters and most of the students it is Iuneethe beginning of vacation. To the graduates it is the end of school days, the beginning of life. We are gloriously happy, and yet if we stop our gay Chatter for a moment, we feel the little twist of sorrow that grads usually experience on this day. How strange that it is our turn to gather in one of the private rooms to laugh over the good times that we have had togetherestrange that we are the ones to dream and predict brilliant futures for each other. The undergraduates gather great armfuls 0f daisies to enhance the auditorium and the parlors. We talk, the others work, and the morning melts into noontime. Dinner! Into the dining hall we go for our last meal at The Nlountain. We talk lightly of our dresses, the delicious food, but every heart is secretly tucking away the sight of big windows, the white tablecloths, the green ferns. We are told to go upstairs after luncheon to rest. We don't rest, of course, For a few moments we lie on our beds. thinking, thinking, but the sun pours in warm and bright, and there is so much to do that we are soon up walking restlessly, calling to one another. Late afternoon approaches. Cars begin to pull up. An expectant hush falls over everything. The halls are much the same as on ordinary school daysibut these days will never return for us. Our hair is brushed; our white dresses are being pulled and pinned by wilting young hands. W76 are fresh and smiling and outwardly very Calm, but oh, our hearts are wildly singing 'tGoodbye, goodbye to our dear teachers. our school, our carefree youth. Once more we glance at the pale blue walls of our dormitory, at our neat white beds. Down the stairs, through the quiet halls, into the auditorium filled with flowers, afternoon sunshine, and friends we slowly pass. Breathlessly we slip into our Chairs. Amid this fragrance, this simple beauty we spend our last hour at The Nlountain. HENRIETTA BAUER. page jtfizz-wevm ggougtita on Waits gDafza'z Baggati HE bravest, truest thing in the world is a large, friendly waste paper basket. It never retaliates 0r grumbles when filled to the top with trash. Sturdy and staunch it stands with its mouth wide Open, ready to receive any sort of refuse I may deign to throw into it. What would our school rooms be without their robust. green waste baskets? A waste basket holds more secrets than anything I can think of. It receives with a sigh occasional examination papers, stuffed conscientiously to the very bottom, bearing perhaps fifty or sixty per cent marked at the top. A waste basket is very comforting, especially to people of a scribbling nature, Its very presence seems to say, ttI am here to help you. You can rely upon me It is consoling to think that a waste basket not only receives shattered literary, musical or artistic work, but that it also hugs it lovingly with its cylindrical sides as though saying, Never mind, I want it. Try again, A waste basket catches sly wads of gum and showers of pencil shavings but does not protest nor fret. Sometimes when things have been misplaced, I cannot help think- ing that if a waste basket could suddenly stand on its head, nine times out of ten, that which is lost would tumble out upon the floor, A waste basket may also hold precious things. Perchance a priceless ring or pendant has slipped into its round abode unknown while a person was depositing refuse in it, or maybe a waste basket has lovingly cradled a nest of wee, squeaking mice. If only it could speak, what stories it would have to tell! If there were no waste paper baskets, ours would be a disreputable look- ing world indeed. We would be walking through life in trash and filth. Wlith- out them civilization would degenerate, and the wheels of progress would be rusted. Our very souls would be affected; our physical selves would deteriorate I believe that humanity depends upon its faithful, hard- working waste paper baskets, whether it be generally thought so or not I have firm faith 1n the fact that a waste basket can judge the characters of its donors, if they may be so called. The temperamental person crushes paper brutally and sends it to the bottom of the basket with a resounding thud, the clever one drops his refuse in slyly with a faint slish . and the methodical one tears paper into little squares and places it in the basket in a neat, precise pile. I sincerely wish that I could be as waste paper baskets, for are they not most humble and meek? They receive all sorts of trash, from splotches of ink to orange peelings, with resignation and Without demur.

Fifteen desks, each with its green blotter and inkstand. stretch from the big windows to the impressive looking book cases. Here sit the girls who have struggled through mathematics, science, and languages and at last have reached the peak of their high school career. As we look at the desks, they seem to reveal the characters and ambitions of the owners. On one we see clever sketches and exquisite paintings made by the hand of an artist, and next to it is one covered with books on cooking and sewing. Farther down the row we come to a desk slightly out of line. On it are themes and poems that bespeak the genius. Many worth while literary manuscripts have come to life here. Another desk contains chemicals left while their caretaker stops to chat before going up to the laboratory. On this same desk the great- ness of the planets and stars is related in a huge volume that only a lover of science w0uld undertake to read. Right next door we see a large, green har- mony book used as a paper weight for the diHieult music of Chopin and Bach. Pages containing triads and other chords are scattered aroundiso on down the line. As the graduates sit here, they see in the front rows of desks the younger students who look hack to them for advice and help. They think of the begin- ning of their own high school careers, of the days when they were timid fresh- men and tiptoed into the study hall lest they call attention to themselves. How grown up and dignified the seniors seemed thenl They marvelled at the ease with which these seniors delivered messages, at the assurance with which they addressed assemblies in the auditorium and wondered whether they would ever be able to converse freely on all the subjects that the seniors seemed to understand. As they recall their sophomore year, they realize that the sume mer preceding it had made them a little older. In September when they re- turned to school, they showed their superiority to the newcomers. The seniors, nevertheless, still seemed far above them in dignity and knowledge. The coveted seats were only two rows away now! As juniors they were hostesses for the school parties and the lunior-Senior Farewell; yet they looked to the back row of girls for support and encouragement. Finally one golden autumn day, as seniors they entered the study hall and proudly claimed Graduates' Row. And so they became seniorsl With the back row desks came duties, responsibilities; thus the graduates learned that they were just like other people. True, they assumed airs of dignity; yet their hearts were like those of freshmen, sophomores, juniorSeeager to work and play and conqueri They learned that being seniors meant slipping from the pleasant years of childhood into real life. The character of each girl became more clearly defined. Joyfully, bravely, yet half reluctantly the seniors took the last row-the last row of school days, of carefree girlhood. Now they are looked up to for advice and encouragement, but when they themselves 100k backward from Graduatesl Row, they see only the big windows of the study hall and the great world beyondithe world which they must conquer.

While listen- ing to lovely music, we can sit and dreamedream 0t remembrances of events long passed, or picture the fulfillment of a desire eagerly longed for. Truly, there is power in music. Every emotion from the most reverent devo- tion to the gayest pleasure is evoked by music. It elevates, empowers, and strengthens. Who cannot be thrilled when the voice of love speaks in song? Who does not feel a patriotic sensation when some martial tune is heard? What man does not raise his hat at the first notes of HThe Star Spangled Banner ? Sing to the sufferer, to the troubled, to the aged, and t0 the child emusic Will inspire all. Songs learned in Childhood are those that will he loved in after years. Who knows but that the song which a mother sang to her little boy may be the voice that will recall him from ruin later on. Music awakens strong emotions, leaving a t0uch of tenderness here and a dash of sunshine there. How strange the world would be without music. There is music in the weird sounds of the March winds, in the crackling of the sparks as they fly from the burning hearth, in the rippling Waters of the brooks, in the pitter- patter of the raindrops as they gently fall, and in the sweet songs of the birds as they daily while away the hours. What varied emotions must have inspired old masters like Beethoven, Chopin, Grieg, and Liszt to compose such re- nowned classics as uThe Moonlight Sonata , Polonaise in C Minor, nAnitra'S Dance, and Hungarian Rhapsody . There is no mood that cannot be affected by music's power, a power so forceful that it can move heaven and earth in praise of its Creator. ANNE MOLLENKAMP.

It is with regret that we senior members leave this in- teresting club to the younger would-be scientists who, we hope, will derive as much pleasure from and appreciation of the study Of science as we have. page .rixlydflzrea afgfstiai Athletics are of interest to most of The Niountain pupils. XVe know and love the thrill of hard-earned victory, and we have learned the importance of good sportsmanship. Each season with its particular sports is eagerly wel- comed. Under the calm and able direction of Miss Lucille Berning our athletic ability has developed rapidly. High school athletics have brought us not only much pleasure but also health and a spirit of fair play that will stay With us throughout life.

Clowns, stately ladies, rag dolls, a bridal party, witches, and soldiers mingled together at their delicious luncheon. There were prizes awarded for the most original costume and for the prettiest one. Fortunes were told in a darkened corner of the room. All of this added immensely to the enjoyment of the party. Apple Cider and doughnuts furnished the finishing touch to a very enjoyable entertainment provided by charming hostesses, the girls of the Tenth Year. gga Wafentina 930.1155 The month of February, along with mid-year examinations and retreat brought the annual Valentine Party given by the Ninth Year. Strains of music greeted us at the door of the dimly lighted auditorium. The paper hearts and red crepe paper ribbons, the dance programs and candy hearts presented a very pleasing picture in the candle-light. This evening witnessed the first appearance of the Freshman Orchestra, and they certainly gave us their best. 'When the delicious sandwiches, potato chips, olives. pickles. ice cream and cake had disappeared, dancing and games were in order. The great success of their first party must have given the freshmen much encouragement. gDian'a $027 Picnic Day is one to which we look forward every year. This year antici- pations were more than satisfied. The day was spent out-of-doors with lunch under the trees on the avenue. There were games, sports, and tournaments of various kinds to provide amusement during the morning while the after- noon entertainment consisted of a movie in the auditorium. As always, days like that one come to an end too soon, and school was dismissed too early to satisfy many of us. fifaai Upon the lilac hedge A dusky smudge 0f bloom, Torn by the windls quick fingers From off. the twiIight's 100m.
