So let. us have the platform now lVhile we our story tell For we don't hesitate to say ll'e really have done well. 'l'hl-ouggh four long years of high school work lVe've struggled to attain lflaeh year a store of learned lore And reach a higher plane. VW- started out with earnest, will Resolved to win or die, Through thick and thin we struggled on And stuck to St. John's High. As Freshmen we were eurtly told 'Phat we were green hut, growing And now we mean to prove to all That. we shall make a showing. Do what you do, was chosen then To rule our second year And always we have really tried To show that- we're sincere. Our motto for the Junior year Revealing purpose high, VVas Better far to be than seem lve hung it in the sky. And now we number twenty-one Short, fat, or lean and tall, And when our footsteps come no more 'I'hey'll miss us in the hall. Our class can boast of. some athletes XVho truly did their deal To spread their Alma Mater's fame On many a hard fought field. ll'e also have our vocalists And good musicians too, Who in Church functions do their part To render praises due. Now as we end our high school days VVithin these time-worn walls, lVc pause to wonder what's ahead And which way Duty calls. NVe hope success will come to us Because all thru' our days VVe've tried to prove to everyone 'l'lzat doing duty pays. And as we think of parting now, From Dear Old St. John's High We feel that it will be a task For us to say goodbye. For great endeavors we go forth lVith purpose firm and true. We'll never fail in loyalty Dear Old St. J0hn's, to you. -Margaret Glaser. ,:, Q11 I ! 10:0 11:10

They still continue to win popularity by the satisfac- tion they give on every occasion. The talent of three Seniors has helped to make our Orchestra what it is, and they will be missed from the organization next year. PERSONAL SUPERVISION During the last week of December our music class enjoyed a visit from Miss Marie Harder, the guest teacher of the Art Publication Society of St. Louis. While she was here, she enrolled twenty-one piano pupils in the per- sonal supervision plan. These students have now a new incentive for thorough and earnest work, both in theory and technic. According to this plan, two examinations sent by the College of Music in St. Louis provide stimulus for theory work while an Artist Teacher will visit the class before the close of school to make a test of technical ability. The Artist expects to give a Recital for the music pupils and their parents. RECITALS Two musical events in December gave a practical demonstration of the stage of progress reached by each pupil. Both programs were given in the Music Auditorium. In the first recital, the performance of the Junior musicians, whether as soloists or in orchestral parts, surprised and de- lighted their assembled friends. All parts were good, and many a young performer displayed more than ordinary talent. At the Senior recital the seasoned veterans gave a handsome account of themselves. The way they measured up to the required standard must have been very gratifying to teachers as well as pleasing to friends. Among these musical enthusiasts are some who finish high school this year, and we hope they may find a way to perpetuate their musical interests and ambitions awakened at St. John's. According to the usual music department program, two more recitals should be given before the end of the year. one by beginners and the other by a graduate, Peter Baudo, well known to every one in Bellaire for pro- ficiency in both vocal and instrumental music. But Mr. Baudo prefers not to favor his admirers, with a special program, and since he has always made a generous use of his marvelous gift whenever called upon, his preference with regard to the final recital has been respected. -Grace Witt, '30
