.Ql i 1 The TRUMPET l Q.. U Last Will cmd Testament Ii, THE Commercial Seniors of '26, are about to depart from this, our beloved St. Gabriel's, and venture forth to seek our fortune in various ways, to reap as we have sown, with an overflowing love for our Alma Mater, and devotion to our beloved Sister and companions, we do hereby publish this, our last Will and Testainent. VVe relinquish to those we leave behind many secrets, we entrust to them many treasures, and bequeath to them many pleasant times, which we can retain only in the web of memory. To the class of 1927 we leave our motto, lixcelsior, which, if lived up to, will bring them great success. To Grace Ferry, Catherine Czarick leaves all the mirrors in her possession, as Catherine will be'out in the business world and will not be able to look at herself as often as she did dur- ing the shorthand period. Helen Morris bequeaths to Robert Oakes her shorthand book which she knows will be greatly appreciated by him. Isabel McCann leaves that friendly way which so becomes her to any junior who desires it. Mary Farrell wills her beautiful marcel to llelen Heaney and hopes that the storms of her Senior year will have no effect on the waves. Norah Boyle bequeaths to joseph McFadden, her rate of speed in everything. fBe careful, bloseph, or you may break Norah's great recordj. Ellen Donahue leaves to john Tormay her working sheets which were too nume1'ous to count. Mary Cortez leaves to John Conahan her ability to laugh away cares and her excuses for being tardy. -Qi I Mary Repanshek leaves to Grace Reckenwaldt her skill in reading shorthand whether she had the notes or not. To Paul Thompson, Joseph Romanchek bestows his intensive application to bookkeeping. John Brislin wills to James Dunnigan, slr., his talkative manner. CT he class will then know that you are presentj. John Walsh leaves to blames llunnigan, Sr., his perfect attendance record and hopes that james will take better care of it than he has.

Mary McFeeley bequeaths to Mary Roman her motto, Still waters ought to and do run deep. Angeline Costabile bestows on Anna O'Don- nel her love for study. To the rest of the juniors we bestow the task the tables which of dusting and straightening they will find necessary more than once a day. To our beloved teacher we leave our parting gift-gratitude-gratitude for her patience, her labor and her example. United under the colors of green and gold, we give from the fullness of our hearts, our love, our admiration and our appreciation, and the fervent promise of con- tinual devotion and fidelity to the high and cherished ideals of the Sisters of Mercy.

The TRUMPET l 1 i 1 A music teacher is Bonnie, McGeehin, to be exact, And in teaching, as per always, She uses the greatest tact. The schoolman rang a tiny bell, The children filed in lineg The teacher, Bet Feeney , loved them well, And they liked her just fine. Etta Kehoe is touring the country, up and downg Sl1e's doing Social Welfare Work, and by it, has won renown. The honored joseph Brislin, president of our class, Is a civil engineer supremeg There are no11e Joe can't surpass. Another wish granted, I'm glad to say, On a horse is galloping along, Saucer , a riding cowboy gayg X1Vho raises his voice in carefree song. Des , the detective of our class, Was revising the works of Holmes: VVhile Mary McNertney, her twin and chum, Lectures on Shelley's Poems. A vision of beauty now greets my gaze The waters have shown me a different phase: Peg McMenamin's kneeling in chapel ..... a nun, Whose work for God's glory is never done. Like slowly changing music, a Spanish garden looms. Flo Hoben is kneeling as she scoops The soil to plant sweet blooms. A busy ollice seems to appear The lake quite closely I must scang I see Joe Jacobs pictured there, A very successful business man. A stage agleam with mellow light The glass-like stream portrays: In concert is Lynchy with violin And O! how that man plays. It does not show within the pool What the future holds for me, But patiently I'll wait and try To bear what is to be. The lake has gone and l've seen the IHSI, The dream Qfor 'twas9, grows nazy As in the future does the past. And as a conclusion, I hope and fondly pray That our prosperous futures one and all, Begin this very day. Dokls lXflCKENNA, '26, P1'opl1f!r'ss. E701

Thus does Shakespeare depict, by contrast, the beauty of a mind musically inclined. As music is important to a good man, so is expression necessary to excellent music. In orchestra work particularly, the effect produced is dependent on the feeling and ability of the members to carry out the very spirit of the composer in their treat- ment of each selection. The great symphony orchestras appearing in some of the country's best theatres, enhance the beauty and further the coloring of their selec- tions by an electrical setting. As the orchestra becomes enraptured in a niagnanimous crescendo, the lights become brighter and of a vivid hue. Again, when the musicians gradually sink to a mellow diminuendo, the lights. as if attached to the very souls of the musicians, soften. This psychological arrangement has a decided effectg it reveals to the auditors, an insight into the soul of music. The production of such a re- action is the aim of the Saint Gabriel Orchestra. Doius MCKENNA, '26. OUR MEDICAL ADVISORS The school was fortunate in obtaining the medical advice of three prominent physicians: Drs. john j. Corrigan, William V. Coyle and James A. Corrigan. By giving a series of lec- tures on the various phases of hygiene and phy- sical education, they imparted much valuable information concerning these most important topics. Their zealous efforts and successful Work is greatly admired and appreciated by the stu- dents, the faculty and all those in any way con- nected with our High School MARGARET A. MCNERTNEY, '26. The Senior Class extends its sympathy to Catherine Burke, '26, on the death of her father, 'lohn W. Burke, who departed this life January 13, of the current year. T721
