11124 NAZARETH ACADEMY YEAR BOOK 1924 The jlllehaille Qllluh HE reorganization of the Medaille Club was one of the first academic features of the year. The first meeting took place on the last Friday in October and the large number of Seniors, who were former members, together with the recruits from the 9 Junior class, presented themselves. The results of the election were the following officers: Agnes Burke, President, Helen Coyne, Vice-President, Mary E. Madden, Secretary, and Arlene Oster, Treasurer. The Club looked forward to a happy venture into the Land of Literature and Book- lore. Rev. William P. Ryan spoke at one of the early meetings and his inter- esting discourse on the life and character of Cardinal Newman was greatly appreciated by his audience. Indeed, the Rev. Speaker was requested to give readings from the great master of English style at the next meeting. Another speaker heartily welcomed by the members of the Club was Rev. Charles Bruton who gave a most enjoyable afternoon on Irish litera- ture and poetry. At many of the other meetings held during the year, programs were arranged and given by the members themselves. We are looking forward with pleasant anticipation to talks from Rev. Dr. Kettell and Rev. Edward T. Meagher before the end of the year. The Members of the Club wish to express their thanks to the speakers who so kindly contributed to the literary work of the Club this year and also to Sister Teresa Marie, whose help and interest in the Club they greatly appreciate.

192-4 st NAZARETH ACADEMY YEAR BOOK 49 1924 by the dramatic art of our own companions. We recall with delight our memories of Stratford-on-Avon, and never tired listening to the immortal words of its great bard. Onward pressed our bark, nor did we fail to visit France the beautiful, and even yet, the very names of Notre Dame, the Louvre and the Place de la Concorde bring to our minds sights then made familiar and stories that we then loved to hear. Other lands we skirted in our magic bark, and saw old Rome in the glories of the Republic and the Empire. We beheld the triumph of the foremost man of all the world. We sat in the Senate House with the Conscript Fathers, and heard the invectives and pleadings of Cicero, the prince of orators. In the marble atrium of Maecenas and by sweet-sliding Mincius crowned with vocal reeds, we heard the exalted music of Virgil and followed brave Aeneas from Troy to Latium. Constantly echoing round and above us, we could hear voices of the spirit calling us to things higher and fairer than pagan Greece or Rome could show. We could hear the songs of virgins and martyrs and all the wise and holy ones that heard the voice of Christ, who is Truth and Light and Beauty far beyond the dream of pagan poet or philosopher, however great and wise and good. Here then would we bide long-long, and form our souls to wisdom and to beauty, fairer than the light of setting suns. All the wisdom strewn along the pathway of the world but leads to this and finds its climax and completion here in Christ-His words, His life, His spirit. Here have we found, indeed, the better party and happy are we to whom it is given to sit at His feet and learn righteousness. But now the pleasures as well as the difficulties are almost at a close. Even as I sit here in reverie, I can see our journey's end. The final picture brings commingled joy and sadness, for the sheltered and protected valley along the great river has led down to the coast of a wide expanse of sea. The fellow travellers of four happy years bid each other fond farewellsg the inspiring word and supporting arm of our guides are withdrawn and each is left to choose for herself the bark and the direction she will take as she leaves the pleasant port and sets sail out upon the unknown sea.

1924 Q, NAZARETH ACADEMY YEAR BOOK 1.924 Qllburuszs nf iBupuIar bangs, Qhapteh Air- Till We Meet Again. Nazareth is the subject of my song, All her girls would tarry round her long, Holding high her banner bright, From which beams a clear and holy light. Naz'reth hearts are ever brave and true, Finding joy, though all the world be blue, They're the kind that make folks say, Nazareth girls are fine! MARCELLA REICHENBERGER. Air- Linger Awhile I wish I could linger, still linger awhile, I wish I could stay in the light of your smile, For to-morrow we must go, It turns all my joys to woe, To leave you, dear Nazareth, For I love you so. LUELLA DAVIS. Air-- Song of Love 'Tis the School of schools, Nazareth forever! Mother of loyal hearts, ne'er can we forget thee, Like a dove your sweet voice comes winging, bringing Cheer and counsel when dark clouds frown, Thy kind face glows as thy daughters true Wreathe thee with love's bright crown. twenty-seven FRANCES MCCARTHY. Air- She's my Girl. There's a school that we love, and its Nazareth, With her banner gold and blue, It is one place on earth that we cherish, To her we'll e'er be true, For in sunshine and rain she has cheered us, And we know that from us is due, For her motherly care and guidance, Love and devotion true. ' ARLENE OSTER. Air- Crinoline Days In those dear old Nazareth days, Well loved people with their well loved ways, Friendships that we'1l ever cherish, Virtue sweet and trust which ne'er can perish. Oh! that class of '24, From whose true hearts warm kindness ever will pour. Often in spirit we'll longingly gaze Back to those dear Naz'erth days. ROSEMARY EDELMAN.
