“WJc come euer Smiles i • • • OL s eniord • • MOUNT VERNON SEMINARY Washington, D.C. “That which we look on with unselfish love ... is surely ours. MARY C RD1NK- BK MN KI� 1 oreivot J The Greeks were our ancestors intellectually, artistically and politically. The tales of Greek mythology throw light upon what the early Greeks were i tli the rise of Greece, man became the center and most important crea- tion in the universe, and the world was more humanized. Although the myths are explanations of some aspects of nature, in them is a deeper expression of what human beings need and must have in their gods. We have chosen Greek mythology for the theme of the 1954 Cupola in tribute to those highly civilized people who developed the myths and whose cultural deseendents we are. In carrying the theme throughout this volume, we have begun by picturing a modern oung girl in Grecian robes looking upon the past, the present, yes. even the future, through the pages of our book. Zeus has been chosen to represent government since he was the sup reme ruler of the universe, and the organizer and source ot law. Valor was dear to him. Justice was his. Apollo, who portrays the acti ities in the school, was the ideal of fair youth, having divine insight into the nature of every power and faculty. Among other things, he was patron of music and poetry. Hermes represents athletics at Mount Vernon, since his agility and strength made him ea il prince in athletic events. His cunning rendered him a dan- gerous foe. He was the god of physical strength, athletic sports, and good Hebe, goddess of youth, who is surrounded by the “freshness of nature”, represents the underclassmen. She was a delightful personality, attractive and gay. The seniors are represented by Athena who was the goddess of wisdom. Th rough our years here, the clas of 1954 ha acquired knowledge and aware- ness that will help them to h e better women and citizens of the world. We have chosen quotations from several well-known poets to further the description of the gods and goddesses used. These will he found on the di- vision pages. like. lmk. As I try to put into words our good wishes and our farewell to the Class of 1954. the newspapers are full of stories of the latest man-made explosion to date and of its almost unbelievable results. What words can we find to sa as we send you out to meet so strange and unpredictable a world? 1 turn, as I think of you and your gradu- ation. to E. M. Forster who wrote in another critical year. 1939. that he discerned in the world a sort of aristocracy — an aristocracy of the sensitive, the considerate, and the plucky. I And by plu ck, he meant the power to endure.) Its members are to be found everywhere and there is a secret understanding between them when they meet. It is to that aristocracy that we commend you. There may you be found — among the sensitive, the considerate, the plucky — for with them you will represent man ' s permanent victory over cruelty and chaos. May you be able to say with Rufus Jones. 1 find it absolutely real that God holds one’s hand. There’s nothing, anywhere, to be afraid of.” April. 1954 Our thanks go to Miss Hendrix, our class advisor, whose helpful advice, sympathy, and understanding have endeared her to us. DEDICATION To our parents, because we love them, and because we are grateful for all the have been to us, we dedicate the 1954 Cl pola. Their understanding, their guidance, and their faith in us have given us a needed inspiration. 6 on ten ts Calendar Government Around The Clock At Mount Vernon Athletics Snapshots Seniors Snapshots Class History Directory page 8 page 11 page 1 page 23 Activities page 34 page 35 page 42 page 43 L nderclassmen page 48 page 49 page 66 page 67 page 68 page 71 Snapshots Advertisements 1953 - 1951 September 15 — The Beginning.

ROBERT F. CHASE and MR. R. G. HUGHES even books can’t teach you the value of a Venus de Milo or make an operatic solo more appealing than the Tiger Rag.” It requires a sensitive, perceptive ear and eye to appreciate their quality. But the history books will tell you that it is quality which survives the acid test of time. Like fine music and art, fine printing will have a lasting appeal. The discerning individual will recognize the quality of a PRIDEMARK product.
