Zke Cant cm SdUorial Staff Our Lantern is an important part of graduation. Fond memories of events and traditions are presented here so that they will always remain symbolic of our days at Rowland Hall. The editorial staff is busy throughout the year with planning, writing articles, proofreading, typing and soliciting advertisements. We were given a help- ing hand this year by the chemistry class, who took many of the photographs which are seen in the year- book. This work has been valuable experience for the girls, especially for those who hope to continue in writing or journalistic fields. This book serves as a diary of our year of joy and sorrow, work and play, lear ning and growing. It represents Rowland Hall and the spirit of the school, but it also represents the girls as individuals. We of the Lantern Staff have tried to present the events and traditions of Rowland Hall so that they may be relived and remain a constant reminder of what we have given to the school and of what the school has given to us. 29

Xhe hoarders The boarding department forms the nucleus of Rowland HalL It is here that girls from all parts of the country learn to live with each other and realize a side of Rowland Hall that the day students do not exper- ience. They find a warm, family feeling, a cooperative attitude, a spirit of friendliness. Each girl is an individ- ual with individual responsibilities; yet she must learn to live and work with other people. There are many extra-curricular and social activi- ties planned for the boarding girls. Concerts, plays, lectures and art exhibits are available to satisfy cultural interests. In the winter, skiing and skating are popular. Tennis, swimming, baseball and horseback riding help to keep the girls busy during the spring months. And, of course, they take part in the school functions such as the skits, dances, class parties, picnics, and teas. Dur- ing spare moments, the girls gather in each other’s rooms to listen to records, have the familiar “gab- sessions,” or play bridge. There is a spiritual side to their life, too. Every Sunday morning each girl attends the church of her choice; and in the evening, a vesper service, held in the library, helps to bring the faculty and students closer together. One of the main advantages in being a boarding student is the chance to learn to accept the resident faculty members as friends, while gaining outside help and stimulation in school work. Thus, the boarding student gains in three respects. She broadens her intellectual life, her social life, and her spiritual life. She becomes a happy, well-rounded person. 30
