Visiting Director « 10 g THE out-going class of Saint Margaret's takes great pleasure in setting down in this volume a few words of appreciation and gratitude to Father Reardon for his splendid lectures. His very helpful talks, while deeply educational and scientific, were plain, forceful and convincing. Through them he opened up a vista of the wonder and beauty of God’s works, and imparted to our young minds something of his keen perception of the illusions and delusions of life, and of his own beautiful vision of things eternal. Ethel Shhpro Rev. J. M. Reardon ST. MARGARET'S ACADEMY has no truer friend than Father Keefe. It was our good fortune to have had him as an instructor during our freshman and sophomore years. Although Father Keefe always talked from Sinai and from the Mountof the Beatitudes. his pleasing manner of approaching serious subjects, as well as his occasional humorous digressions, held the attention of our untutored minds. His message to us was to be practical Catholics, ever ready to answer for the faith that is in us. It is needless to add that his talks have had a vitalizing influence on our lives, which wc earnestly hope will go on forever. Dorothy Slater Rev. Geo. W. Keefe : 3 11 Jdcu U £- TO our distinguished lecturer. Mr. George Benson Hewetson. we are indebted for a series of talks on English masterpieces. The ring of genuine sincerity which characterizes Mr. Hewetson’s utterances, quickened our appreciation for the true and beautiful. His earnest plea for the cultivation of self-expression was paramount in every lecture. Although enlisted in the apostolatc of literature. Mr. Hewetson’s platform often changes to a pulpit. His ever-present vision of 'l abor intrudes itself into all his talks. At such times his face seems to ' shine as the sun.'' as with no slight reluctance, he calmly comes down from the Mount. Constance Carroll Mr. G. B. Hewetson NO more popular instructor claims a place on S. M. A. staff than Mr. Beck. Just a few minutes before eleven o’clock he ushers himself in the west door, his head tossed to one side, and playing a tunc with his bunch of keys. He is soon lost in the swarm of girls, hurrying from the Cafeteria, moving with accelerated velocity towards the Study Hall. Mr. Beck is a big brother then, just one of the crowd, laughing and chatting familiarly with any near-by Miss. When all are assembled, and the big clock thrills the hour, he suddenly ceases to be Mr. Beck and assumes the dignity of our Music Director. Instantaneously. Big Baby Grand responds to his magic touch, and the walls of dear S. M. A. vibrate with harmonious parts of a Mar-chetti's “Ave Maria.” or a Busch's Song of Spring. That chorus hour, and our splendid Music Master shall ever live among pleasant memories. 12 •: Mr. J. J. BF-CK Myrna McGillis Jocu 1. MISS IRENE McGuire, our Art teacher, has pronounced the drawings in the DAYESYE quite artistic. The success of this part of our work may be attributed to Miss McGuire s patient helpfulness, and persistent do it all over.” Her trained eye instantly detects many imperfections in productions which we prided ourselves on as real works of art. Miss LAURA Murray, for several years a member of the Faculty, is very successful in leading young minds to discover the beauty behind the lines of our American authors. Longfellow. Bryant. Irving and other national writers have a new group of admirers in our freshmen. Miss Murray’s first Latin class take real pleasure in declensions and conjugations. Miss MARGUERITE Hhckel has succeeded in arousing among the Junior Freshmen, a keen interest, not only in King J ut. but in Plato. Aristotle. Socrates and other famous ancients. Miss BLANCHE Reid, the Gymnasium teacher, puts the Freshmen and Sophomores through many healthful and grace-producing exercises. Her knowledge of our-door games and Folk Dances is an envy to us all. 13 'Dayesye Stafi Dorothy Slater Florence Vincent -Marion DeVoy -Margaret Anderson Frances Keating Ardyce La Pray Ethel She pro Caroline Schauppner Anna Roers Margaret McEachern Kathleen Mader Gertrude Hebel Helen Mackey Lillian Kenney Lucille Stein Betty Stevens Edilor-in-Chief Assistant Editor-in-Chief Editor of Personals Art Editor Assistant Art Editor Humor Editor Literary Editor Senior Section Editor Poetry Editor Music and Alumnae Editor Calendar Editor Chief Typist Assistant Typist Assistant Typist General Assistant General Assistant JdayeMfe § is Margaret Anderson “Dear were her Charms to me, Dearer her Laughter free.

Helen Maley PROLOGUE EING an unusual, and precocious group of immortelles, we chose to stray from the beaten path of all pre-historians, and blaze a new trail in writing ourselves up for our own enjoyment, and in setting ourselves down on these pages for the amusement or ridicule of our readers. Having become greatly enamoured of Shakespeare early in life, we decided that, during our high school course, we would simply say his says and play his plays. As all cultivated flowers need the trimming, training, and pruning of experienced hands, so this group of human buds needed for their development, just such tender care as is given at that select spot in God's garden.

Hark! hark! the lark at heaven s gate sings: My lady sweet, arise, arise. My errand is to you. fair youth. Hie thee! speed to S. M. A. If you'd find a place to stay. After our wonderful vacation, with little to do and less to think, this was a rude awakening. But knowing that space was at a premium in our chosen high school, we heeded the warning. Light of foot, light of heart, and mayhap. light of head, we tripped along in the fresh morning air. to the music of singing birds. The halo of eighth grade graduation was still upon us. We expected that the Faculty and the entire student body of upper classes would greet us at the main entrance. But our hopes were shaken as rough winds do shake the darling buds of May. We had to find our own way through dimly lighted halls, to the office, where, though greeted by the Principal with a winsome smile, we soon learned that we were in for taming. Good morrow. Kate, for that's your name. I hear. Your humble pardon I do beg: they call me Katharine that do talk of me. Audacious maiden. ’T ill you're tame. Kate, ‘plain Kate.' shall be your name. We have strict statutes and most biting laws. The needful bits and curbs for headstrong Kates. Will you swear for four years' term, to live with me. And keep the statutes That are recorded in the schedule here? If so. subscribe your names.” I am resolved: t is but four years to fast. The mind shall banquet, though the body pine. But our good resolve died young. On receiving our program, such thoughts as these almost found utterance— What! shall I be appointed studies, as though belike I knew not what to leave and what to take? I'll not be tied to hours nor pointed times, but learn my lessons as I please myself. Then our gentle Sister Principal sweetly informed us that we must dofT our silken frocks and don the simple Peter Toms. Our purses shall be proud. she said, our garments poor. For t is the mind that makes the body rich. § M g £)cu c yc This seemed a last straw upon our tried souls. We almost showed the cinders of our spirits through the ashes of the chance. and to ourselves we said: Fie. fie on all tired jades, on all mad masters, on all foul ways. But dear old Shakespeare came to our rescue with his ever ready counsel: Give thy thoughts no tongue. We tried to make diplomacy serve our purpose, but our faces must have reflected our minds, for Sister said: Fie! fie! unknit that threatening, unkind brow: It blots thy beauty as frosts do bite the meade. Pardon. Sister, our mistaking eyes Have been so bedazzled by the sun. That everything we look on seemeth green. T his prompt apology brought a kind overflow of kindness. and Sister said: Be cheerful; wipe thine eyes: Some follies are means the happier to arise. Away! all things are ready if your minds be so. Quick Curtain. Scene II THE STUDY HALL We hoped to make the study period a real social affair, where we might sit near our best friend and pass a pleasant hour. A merry heart lives long. Well said. Master Silence. But when our chatter disturbed the quiet study, a solemn senior looked askance and said. How green and fresh you are in this old world. But still we chattered on. till another senior looked daggers at us. but used none. and only chided thus.— Form your manners to the times. This was scarcely said when a sophisticated junior chimed in— That wench is stark mad.” By this time the sounds had reached the Prefect's ears. With a gentle tap, she said. Arc you mad? Have you no wit. manners, nor honesty but to gabble like tinkers? Is there no respect of place, person, nor time in you? A hushed silence followed, and All the little freshmen elves, for fear did Creep into acorn cups, and hide them there. Exeunt Freshmen. Quick Curtain.

Get ye gone. Such was our mental attitude toward ourselves for the remaining weeks of our freshman year. As the rime sped on swift wings, we felt that we were gradually absorbing knowledge, more or less, and acquiring confused ideas of many things. We had learned that a name appearing on the bulletin board on the main floor, was not for honorable mention, but implied a strict injunction to call at the Secretary’s Office On our first appearance there, this dialogue transpired: Secretary: I am not of sportive humor now: Tell me. and dally not. where are the thousand marks thou owest me? Freshman: Most excellent and accomplished Lady. The heavens rain odors on you. The purse of ducats I shill bring to you: And now much thanks for your most patient care. We had learned not to send S. O. S. messages to our friends while bringing the camp chairs to the lecture hall. We had ceased to shout Tire! when the great gong sounded the knell—the tardy bell. We still saw the funny side of everything except tests, which have none. And so we were often called Bonny Kate, and Kate of Kate Hall, my super-dainty Kate. We looked upon school life as but a stage where each must play his part, and ours a happy one.” 33 JDay£ lyc 0 r At the dose of the first quarter, the teachers, evidently pleased with our papers, and fearing lest we “Lay out too much pains for purchasing” knowledge, announced the freshman frolic. And when they said You may be jogging while your boots are green.” one rapturous shout of joy escaped these near-tamed Kates— Then heigh-ho the holly. This life is most jolly.” At last, though long, our jarring notes agree. And time it is when raging war is done. To smile at 'scapes and perils ovcrblowne.” So passed our first happy year, and at its close our teachers could point to us with pride and say: “Tut, she's a lamb, a dove.” He that knows better how to tame a shrew. Now let him speak: t is charity to show.” Sweets to the sweet” Goodbye, but not farewell: We meet again. Where shrews are tamed. And sages made of men. Slow Curtain.

We are tamed, too. but not all. as you shall see in the sequence, that betimes our shrewish shrewdness gave offense. Having met with much success in “The Taming of the Shrew.” we decided to stage As You Like It” in our sophomore year. The title spells the sophomore spirit, so they say: hence we feel that our choice is a happy one. Proceed, proceed: we will begin these rites. And we do trust they'll end in true delights.” Our great ancestor. Father Adam, charged our good parents to breed us well: this is why they chose Saint Margaret's Academy to stage our school life. As the play progresses, we hope to convince our appreciative audience that we are not dilettantes. The faculty must have realized this, as on the opening of the season, they offered us the use of the Main Hall, on condition, however, that we prove the privilege well bestowed.” by adhering strictly to Hamlet's advice to the players—“Let discretion be your tutor: suit the action to the word, the word to the action. 34 g Jdcu eMfc Keep the gait of Christians and the accent of Christians:” but above all. if you mouth it.' your chance is lost.

We waked ourselves laughing on the opening morning of our Junior Year. “Our dreams presaged some joyful news at hand —just the joy of being almost seniors. Our Junior play was “Much Ado About Nothing. But we resolved to redeem the unmerited rebuke, and show that we made little ado about great things. Since we were furnished with minds so rare. we hoped to rouse the Thrice three Muses, mourning for the death of learning.” We could not help it if we were the most brilliant class that ever went through S. M. A. The teachers never told us that in so many words: but we know they thought it. for such remarks as—“Can the world such jewels buy. or “She is alone the Arabian bird.” often reached our ears on guileless waves of sound. Buoyed up by such high hopes, we “Set our lives upon the cast. resolved “to stand the hazard to the die. As time advanced, we feigned less fear of tests, although they never proved a “charm for the toothache. Our little two-edged sword, an indispensable stage property, brought such admonitions as— I cannot endure my Lady Tongue. Do not play in wench-like words.” I wonder that you still be talking: nobody marks you.” “What secret hath held you here?” - Junior: My allegiance—mark you this. Sister, my allegiance.

The first quarter slipped away from us before we were fully conscious of its presence. There was “no new news but the old news” about the place, if we except the ficquent floor talks in English Class.

Gradually, wc overcame self-consciousness. and before many weeks, could “play the orator, as if for the golden fee.” Wc found this accomplishment a great asset when called upon to give our debate, for on the tips of our persuasive tongues we carried all arguments and questions deep.” Scene II THF.

New Year and Much To Do. Hie thee! spur thee on from sun to sun. A heavier task could not be imposed than that which now is ours. The end so near, and yet so much to do. But it is all a labor of love, and love gives every power a double power, and makes heaven drowsy with its harmony. At our first English meeting in January, we were assigned a debate on Hamlet s madness, to be given within ten days. We heartily enjoyed the research and the debate. The members of the faculty who dignified the occasion by their presence, gave us much encouragement. The new silence law, promulgated early in January, bore heavy upon us. Upon such sacrifices, my dear. T he gods themselves throw incense. We were indeed checked for silence, but never taxed for speech. O. for the freedom of speech which our glorious Constitution accords us. We often claimed it. but only got from the smoke to the smother. The Faculty voted it: the Principal announced it. Our late edict shall strongly stand in force. Our Navarre shall be the wonder of the world: Our Court shall be a great Academie. Still and contemplative in living art. Like the dear good girls we were, we answered. Sisters, to your pleasure humbly we subscribe. Sweet are the uses of adversity. for the which we received this compliment— Happy your grace That can translate the stubborness of fortune Into so quiet and sweet a style.” And now special DAYESYE duties awaited us. Our class history was to be written in four acts, with a generous use of Shakespearean quotations. Presto, seventy playwrights. Each production was submitted to the ordeal of the DAYESYE Clinic test. From the very best writers, a staff was chosen to take choice bits from the seventy papers. This is our apology for this history. From hence, now. ever and anon, that persistent staff was calling, calling, calling for contributions:—themes, jokes, drawings, features, follies. When we failed to bring our bit we often met A February face. So full of frost and storm and cloudiness, that Like blasts of January, would blow us through and through. But nothing daunted, still Seeking the bubble of reputation. we handed in many rare mental products, often to receive only a whole round zero with such added compliments as I would the gods had made thee poetical : Neither rhyme nor reason dost thou show : Ambition should be made of sterner stuff—a dish for the gods. But knowing that grief is beauty's canker. our woes ended likewise with the evening sun. Eventually, we filled our DAYESYE dummy. Our hopes were answered, and for this relief, much thanks.

At the touch of the electric button, the curtain rises to the music of Berceuse Lullaby (from Jocelyn) by Godard. The picture transports us backward some sixteen or eighteen years, and presents one of the sweetest scenes of life. Scene One A MOTHER'S SOLILOQUY AT THE CRADLE In each of the seventy homes is a mother watching over her sleeping beauty. She almost sees the angels kissing dimples into her darling's cheeks: she gets a glimpse of the sweetest smile that ever mortal smiled, and she hears the soft rustle of Cherub wings, as they play hide and seek around her cradle altar. As the baby seniors pass, soft! Listen! That is little DOROTHY SLATER, the darling Dot. calling in her baby dreams. The Bible—Dante—Shakespeare.’ But see. she rises in her cradle and pulling up her tiny sleeves, in a loud voice cries. Friends. Romans. Countrymen, lend me your ears: I come to prove that Hamlet was mad. I can give a thousand proofs. I say he was •S 44 g. mad. But look! There is our little blue-eyed, white-headed ANNA ROERS rising to her feet, and answering her. Tut. tut! you're crazy. Hamlet was not mad. If Hamlet was mad then you arc mad. and I am mad. and we’re all mad. Pipers, tune up; give us music. 1 lisp in numbers, and the numbers come’. Wait! watch! who is that little star-eyed, dark-skinned Grecian-type Dot. calling Apollo! Apollo! O, for the Pipes of Pan.” Why that's little baby Ardyce La Pray. Isn’t she darling? There! another pop-up! That's little MARIAN DeVoy. clapping her tiny hands and brushing her long, straight hair from her eyes. Listen! she dreams aloud. Books, books! more books, a world of books, and more worlds of books. Now sec pale, sweet BETTY STEVENS, and Anna May WiGHTMAN: the Tots repeat. Me too. me too Miles of piles of books.” Hark, what a sweet low voice! Now she raises herself. It is our black-eyed, white-headed FLORENCE VINCENT. See, she stamps her tiny feet, and calls. A pen. a pen! My kingdom for a pen. 1 shall conquer the world with a pen. I must go to St. Margaret’s to learn to write themes and essays. Then I'll carry off all the prizes. A pen! A perpetual fountain pen. Now. another blue-eyed curly-head is seen, but not heard. It is MARGARET Anderson. How sweet the scene. There is Raphael himself presenting her with a palette and brush, and as he fades away, she is sketching her baby dream-vision of heaven. O see! As he passes, he drops a palette in other cribs. How the darlings respond. That tiny FRANCES KEATING, dancing with joy. is sketching her own little self. Yes. and now see ELIZABETH KENNY drawing cartoons! and GERALDINE Moore, drawing daisies, roses, violets. How sweet! But look. Oh! how lovely! See St. Cecelia, and her sweet roses falling on MARGARET McEacHERN’S crib. Sec! she kisses the baby fingers and lo! how they seem to play on a fairy piano. And there, sec little Laura Jennings stretching out her baby fingers to be kissed. Now she passes to Dorothy HAGLUND. What is that she lays in her crib? There. Dorothy awakes, and is playing on a tiny violin. But soft! Listen! What sweet, rich voice is that? It nearer, clearer sounds. Why. that is tiny HELEN MALEY singing Beethoven's O Salutaris. while Cherubs accompany on golden harps, and Seraphs swing the censers. What heavenly music!

Mother calls from the kitchen, where she is overseeing the preparation of the evening meal. Dotty. Darling. Papa’s coming. Run quick, dear, to meet him. See how they scamper, tumbling down tables, breaking dishes, spilling sand-sugar, and upsetting mud pies over the front porch—a sorry sight. But Dotty is in Daddy's arms, covering his tired face with kisses and love pats, while singing— Let me brush the frowns away. Won't you. Daddy dear? Ain't no business feeling blue When Dayesye Dot is here.” As they near the door she worms herself out of his arms, and runs ahead so as to let him in. She takes his hat. leads him to his rest-chair, brings his house slippers, the evening paper, and keeps chattering the day's events while he tries to read the head lines. Soon Daddy and Dot disappear, but return promptly, minus the signs of work and play, and looking much refreshed. Ding-a-ling—and mother's sweet voice announces the evening meal. THE DINING ROOM Father leads grace, and the happy family enjoys a wholesome, tempting repast. Innocent jokes, merry laughter and each one’s attention to others add a pleasant savor to the splendid home cooking. Dot has her store of jests and quips, such as. “Daddy, when was beef the highest?” Daddy plays stupid just to hear her triumphant laugh. Can't any one answer? It's so easy. Why when the cow jumped over the moon. Thus encouraged, she quickly springs another— And when was pork the lowest? All puzzled. Give it up? When the swine rushed into the sea. So a happy time passes, until Father says grace, and all retire to the sun porch. THE SUN PORCH A pleasant evening in each of the seventy homes passes before our mental vision. Watch and listen. See. there is the ROWE home, and tiny GLADYS is telling a sweet story to her enraptured audience. How well she speaks. That next is KlSCHEL’S. and our little BERNADETTE is giving a reading. Note the wonderful childish grace. And hark! who is that sweet lot declaiming in French? C’est le mere michel. qui a perdu son chat. What a darling! Why it is little Louise LE Clercq. that's just who it is. But see. there is a sweetfaced 'Lot who speaks and pantomimes like a real fairy. How wonderful! Well if that isn’t baby Bro.MBACH.

She is sneaking Soanish— Duermete niiio Pequeno. She is as fair as a lily. Now a little Red 'Fop is speaking with angelic grace. No. her hair is not red. just sweet auburn. That's ANNA May WlGHTMAN. Isn't she too sweet for anything? Now another Dot piping up! How wonderful! She is like a real bisk doll, and is as graceful as an angel. That is our darling KATHLEEN MADER. •5 46 § But see that angel darling smiling and bowing so gracefully, while in soft, sweet tones she gives an original poem on “Sweet Mother. Who is it? O. I know: it is dear, sweet EVELYN CARLSTON. What perfect grace and culture she has. And who arc those darlings, all reciting together? That little one is COL-LETTA SCHERBER, and the other two—Oh. sec. they begin to dance. Why that little AGNES Ward must have been born dancing, and she'll die dancing if she keeps on. She is wonderful, and see. little EVELYN GULDEN is trying to equal her. How lovely! What darlings! That thin little fairy is ZETTA POUND, a very promising speaker, indeed. Now see that other sweetness. It is little MYRNA McGlLLIS, reading an original poem. Dada’s Darling. And little I.OUISE BOUCHARD is reading her baby poem, “To Mama. Isn't she the sweetest? Ting-a-ling. See that Dot standing on a chair near the telephone? Listen to her message: “Hello, central, please dive me Dod in Heaven: I have to talk to Him. Hello. Dod. is that You?

FLORENCE won first prize in a contest sponsored by the Women's Over Seas League. During the present school year her essay in the Lighting Contest brought her a cedar chest. Her latest success is the first prize for her essay on The Relation of Chemistry to Health and Disease.” offered by the Minnesota Section of the American Chemical Society. Although FLORENCE is not a member of the chemistry class, her good common sense, her store of general knowledge, and her special gift of the pen make up her winning powers. No honors that come to FLORENCE ever steal from her the beautiful character traits which endear her to teachers and classmates. She remains ever the same shy. sweet girl. A violet by a mossy stone. Half hidden from the eye. More power to your pen. Florence, and may it never be dipped but for a grand and glorious cause.

Someone has said there are no minor poets, no minor sunsets, no major mornings. We hope for great things from Anna. If given half a chance, she may sing the songs of a nation.

A very scientific looking young man was gracefully draped around Donaldson's flagpole, regardless of rhe creaking and moaning and swaying caused by his avoirdupois. From the gates of the sardine-packed street cars, people were elbowing their way. despite the frantic efforts of the hard-pressed conductor to keep order. Once outside the gates, they proceeded with a squirrel-like alacrity to mount the top of the car for sky-seeing. Having reached the zenith of their ambition, they heaved a sigh of content, and immediately began craning their necks, forgetful that they had left behind, below, such objects as wives, husbands, babies. One young miss, utilizing her gymnastic accomplishments, had secured a position on the tail of a nearbv weather-cock. It is thought that she became moon-struck, and lost her equilibrium. At all events, she landed on a passing dairy wagon, where she gained a very vivid picture of the Milky Way. Dorothy Slater Ardyce LaPray Agnes Ward Joint Editors of S. M. A.

The covers have varied little during three hundred years; but how the wagons have changed! Now as we ride down the street in a little Ford we sigh for the fashionable autos that make one more comfortable, while they go like sixty. Yet how much would Daniel Boone, or Sheridan have given for a little Ford runabout. Poor Henry Ford was born one hundred years too late.

Finally the old-fashioned buggy, a single sealer, such as the bashful swain used to harness on a Saturday evening, and proudly drive his sweetheart up and down the village streets. Do you remember the two sealer with the fringed velvet roof that Dad used to pull up to the door when all went in state to church on Sunday? The good old days are gone, but not forever. A news dispatch from New York carried the startling information that it was now the smart thing for one to ride around Central Park in a Victoria shay. The rates are placed extremely high, but that only sharpens the desire. It is hoped that the fashion dictators, those who make our minds all run in the same trend, will revive the man on the box. that old weather-beaten cabby, who knew everyone about town, and trotted his horses at just the proper gait for rest. Well, the old ways were best, but still one doesn't have to spend innumerable hours currying the horses. That was a task!

Moreover, the Beard has his abode in Paris, from where all fashions come. Monsieur Henri Labarbe. literally translated “The Beard.” is the inventor of that vogue in hair dress which has spread all over the world. Some fifteen years ago. a well known French stage favorite. Josephine de Clery. went to the hairdresser in despair. A fire had destroyed her apartment. and part of her hair had been burned. Labarbe rose to the occasion, seized his shears, and clipped off the charred remnants of hair. This apparently turned out to his satisfaction, for. turning her head to the other side, he clipped off her remaining tresses. When the actress appeared before her audience that night, her coiffur created a sensation. The new “bob bcamc a fad. which immediately found favor with the fashionable women of Paris. Monsieur Labarbe lives in a tiny house in a dingy suburb of Paris. Ii front of the shabby home, handsome limousines are drawn up. ready to bea: him away to a fashionable hotel or chateau. He cares for the hair of actresses and social leaders of practically every nationality. Lady Diana Gordon regularly flies over from London for a fortnightly trimming. Mrs. Viola Krauss of New York, always travels from Cannes, six hundred miles from Paris, to have the famous barber trim her bob. Labarbe’s shingle is celebrated. He cuts no two bobs alike. Before touching his customer's hair, he stands in front of her. looking directly at her. Then he studies her features from the profile view, and makes a final inspection from behind her chair. When he has finished cutting, a work of art has been accomplished. Labarbe claims that the bobbed hair is here to stay, but only time will show the truth of his statement. It is reported that he receives as high as one thousand dollars for a bob. Consider the reasonable price of one thousand dollars for a hair-cut. by a tonsorial artist! Many of us seniors will gladly seize the opportunity, and take a trip to Paris to get an artistic bob for our Commencement Day. What is a mere thousand dollars to spend on a hair-cut for that day of days? Anna Lemke ‘Busy The barber bobs from morn till night The hair of many ladies: Then snips and clips with scissors bright. The curls of Ruths and Sadies. Last year he was in great despair. His trade was dull and dead: But now hurrah! he cuts the hair From many a hazel head. The long-haired boys, we call the sheiks.

However, strange as it may seem, our teachers were not sufficiently in sympathy with us to give us a holiday. But S. iM. A. sessions close at 1 :1 5 so we had plenty of time to get ready to join the ghosts and goblins that roam the face of the earth that night. This we did. even going so far as to consult them as to our future, and sought to learn our fates from such forbidden sources as apple seeds in the grate fire, a mirror and a candle. How fortunate for us if the dealings of Fate were always as amusing and entertaining as on Halloween. THANKSGIVING Day—Thanksgiving is a home day second to Christmas only. This year in our case, it was especially enjoyable, as we were invited to spend the day at Grandmother's, a central meeting point for representatives of several related families. A short auto ride brought us to our destination, and the main feature of the day. the dinner, awaited us. The ride sharpened our appetites. and we did justice to the meal, from the steaming nut brown turkey, to the proverbial pumpkin pie and apple cider. Surely not the least of God's blessings to us are the dear friends and relatives with whom his Divine Providence surrounds us. We should also thank God that we live in a country whose governors see the duty and wisdom of recognizing His bounty and beneficence to us. and of rendering H� m public thanks therefor. CHRISTMAS—The whole month of December is filled with the Christmas spirit, the great day itself being the grand climax. How dull would life be without that joyful feast. For days ahead. “A Merry Christmas is in every heart and on every lip. Friends arc preparing gifts for those they love. The wonderful Christmas spirit is due to Him alone. Who came on that first Christmas in the long ago. with His eternal gifts to us all. Each heart enjoys its own Christmas, too sweet for words to tell. £ 69 S)cu cAa c New Year's—Ring out the old year, ring in the new. On this day we stand on the threshold of a new year. To us who are still young, it is full of hope and promise, and we look for nothing but the good that is to come. As we look back at the departing year, our last at S. M. A., how gloriously the happy days stand out. and what joy awaits our Commencement day. Our New Year’s resolutions include our cherished Alma Mater, our love and loyalty to her to the end of life’s chapter. ST. VALENTINE’S Day—Although this is not a holiday, it brings a world of joy to school children. Its bright red decorations break the monotonous white of dull February. The beautiful red decorations for the parties make our young hearts beat joyously. Then the sweet tokens of friendship To one I love. The heart-shaped box of sweets, and the artistic card, which sets you wondering who sent it. Do not accuse William, or McGinnis, girls. Guess again. ST. PATRICK'S Day—Wasn't it a shame that they put St. Patrick in retreat this year? Well, anyway. Father Cullen our retreat Master, did not let him pass unnoticed. He cheered us by decorating himself with a real live shamrock from Ireland, and we felt it no distraction to wear our own bit of green, and greet it on many friends who. though not of Celtic origin, wear it as a mark of courtesy to those who revere the green for all it means. EASTER Sunday—Easter, our first real spring festival, is observed by all. It is like a grand call from nature herself to life and action. The trees, the plants and the fields show signs of life after a long winter sleep. The shop windows are gay with flowers and colors and attractive raiment. The people must keep pace with their surroundings, and garb themselves in keeping with the season. All things really speak to us of the Resurrection. Today is Easter Sunday and Christ is Risen! Alleluia! Kathleen Mader zJXCy Dad If his eyes arc a trifle bluer. If his smile is a wee bit truer. He's my Dad. If my credits he can scan. Then just grin as man to man. He’s my Dad. If he’s there with helping hand. Just the best in all the land. He's my Dad. § 70 § Margaret McEachern zjftCad or ?JXCad THE question of Hamlet's madness having caused considerable disturbance among the senior students, they decided to settle the argument by litigation. They divided themselves equally on the affirmative and negative, to make earnest research for testimony of their icspective convictions. January nineteenth being the day set for the trial, the above entitled case came duly on for action on said date. Long before the appointed hour, all approaches to the Court Room were choked by Shakespearean admirers and students anxious to hear the trial. Official reporters, camera men and distinguished visiting lawyers, had reserved seats. The austere Judges in their flowing robes, dignified the benches, and gave the impression of awe and solemnity, as their set faces showed that they realized the enormity of their present duty. These same were Mother Francis Clare. Sister Henrica and Sister F rancis Rita. Next in order was the Presiding Justice. Margaret McEachern. who in a brief and eloquent address outlined the question at issue. Resolved That Hamlet Was Mad. at the same time introducing the prosecuting attorneys. Dorothy Slater, Gladys Rowe. Bernadette Kischel. Caroline Schauppner and Myrna McGillis. as also the attorneys for the defense. Anna Roers. Marion DeVoy. Ardyce LaPray. Virginia Ford and Helen Maley. The trial proved very interesting to all students of Shakespeare. The young attorneys spoke convincingly, in clear, distinct and forceful tones, which were heard above the din of their rattling knees, which, despite the court's solemn command for Silence in the court room.'' continued to shake. But the clock hands are nearing the hour. The Court calls for the testimony of witnesses. A solemn hush is upon the whole assembly, and great excitement sits on the brows of the young contestants. How shall the Judges decide? Lo! here they come. The decision is announced. Hamlet is declared sane, and let free to roam at will. Enthusiastic applause.

Our Junior Orchestra EVER since their advent to St. Margaret's, three years ago. the Junior Class has shown a marked aptitude for things rhythmical, harmonious and melodic. To foster this tendency and to indulge capricious fancies they here chronicle their High School activities in terms of music. During the early September days of 1922 a happy group of ambitious young students met in the classrooms of S. M. A. Though possessed of much talent they floundered about quite helplessly at their first meeting. Vainly they tried to express themselves in rhythmical progressions. Relief came in the selection of Catherine Murray as first conductor. Under her capable direction the Freshmen advanced rapidly and were able, on Dec. 22. to present the Christamas Party Scherzo. This number made Alma Mater vibrate with such happy melodies that the reputation of the young musicians was at once firmly established. In Juno they again distinguished themselves by the splendid technique with which they handled the Gavotte Commencement.” The second season opened with an intricate Prelude Ex Am.” Realizing the difficult nature of the piece the critics kindly overlooked the lack of harmony in its presentation. Next followed the Russian Confusion Ballet. an uncertain interpretation of stiff Mid Term Tests. The resourcefulness of the players was taxed to its utmost by the rigid tone of this selection. In fact, they were unable to continue their rehearsals until their troubled spirits were soothed and strengthened by the dulcet strains of the Retreat Gratiam Dans. Four weeks later the Santa Claus Party Mazurka was presented and proved a superb success. Work an another faculty selection The Lost Mark Polka again sorely tried the capabilities of the performers. But the hurriedly arranged for Pop Sale Concerto revived their courage and restored their confidence. On June 3rd they announced the Pinic Ensemble. one of those light, airy numbers bubbling over with suggestions of nature and freedom. Perfect harmcnv and a brilliant show of technique marked this farewell presentation of our second successful symphonic season. $81 § —Jt)cu £ Ufe. I he much coveted little Junior Orchestra was conferred on the players at their assembly on Sept. 7. 1924. when Alice Culhane was chosen leader. Ah! here began the history-making epoch, hirst were heard the bright staccato notes of the Junior Hop which brought a torrent of applause and demands for more. But the faculty suggested the Exam Furioso which was not well received. All present heaved sighs of relief when it was over. Gay compositions followed. The sprightly Sleigh Ride Rondo was so enthusiastically greeted that the Card Party Waltz was given as an encore. This last program before 1 ent proved an unqualified success. A visiting conductor, the Rev. T. E. Cullen, took the baton on March 15. His rendition of the Retreat Religioso was most skillfully accomplished. He beat the tempo with tactful certainty and produced a tonality that set his docile audience vibrating with fervent resolves, and thrilled their souls to greater interest in compositions of a spiritual nature. The members of the symphony then boldly attacked the March of the Dayesye Ads . This number was executed without discord and received a full quota of applause. The Ticket Sale Gallop was the next venture of the performers and here again they showed splendid vigor. The rapid movement of this selection caused the weaker players to gasp for breath. Still the conductor urged increased velocity. Prestissimo! She commanded, and the musicians responded, for their ambition was to win in the contest. The Junior-Senior Promenade represents other high point of the last quarter's activities. All are now anxiously looking forward to the aproaching —Grand Finale—The Senior Year. The Class § 82 g.

Or a mansion with tower and dome: And. too. a modest dwelling place, but. Never-the-less it means—Home. It is the scene of the greatest pleasures. And. perchance, of sorrow and woe.

ERE is a Junior's idea of an Eutopian school conceived shortly after reading More s Eutopia: A Place run by the Juniors with very little help from the faculty. A Place where the Freshmen and Sophomores keep their place and do not intrude themselves on the upper classes. A Place where Juniors receive preferences in lunch rooms, class rooms and on the campus. A Place in which wiener buns are served after each class. A Place in which talking is tolerated, nay. encouraged, both in the halls and in the classrooms. A Place containing mirrors on the four walls of each room. A Place where hops, sleigh rides, and card parties are an every-day occurrence. and examinations, term papers, and class dues are unknown quantities. In other words a place that could never exist except in the fertile imaginations of the Juniors. Sitting in the study-hall, the other day at ten. I glanced back at a friend and she saw them too. I looked back on my book so quick, but all that I could see. Were those two lovers in the park, looking up at me. I glanced back at a friend and she saw them too. ’Cause she winked and I smiled, for my response was due. I went back to work again and it was no dream to me.

Beowulf was reading aloud a handbook written by the Compleat Angler. Marlowe was taking the directions and finally he landed a trout. ' Let’s bring it to the hotel. said Marlowe. ' Can't you wait till I catch one? Beowulf exclaimed. ‘‘Come on. 1 promised Miss Alice Adams that I would go with her to visit Griselda. Marlowe replied. ‘‘AH right. let’s go fishing again tomorrow. I ll meet you under ‘The Sign of The Golden Shoe.' said Beowulf. ‘‘Did you hear the Wife of Bath telling Princess Ida about the Silent Woman last night when we were at Macbeth’s castle? asked Marlowe. No. what did she say? She said that the Silent Woman and little Emy were giving a bridal shower on Juliet. Won t Romeo and Juliet make an ideal couple?” I should say. Let's not go by here. I saw Gareth and Lynette over there near the path. You know they’ve been married only one week. said Beowulf. “Well. I hope Sir Kay won't throw me out of the kitchen when I bring this trout in. muttered Marlowe as he entered the hotel and left Beowulf. In the lobby Beowulf met Geraint and Enid who were taking the parts of good deeds and evil deeds in the play called Everyman. Deor was to play his instrument and sing his lamentations. Another number in the vaudeville was Balin and Balan who were to sing the epics of Widsith. The next morning in the market square Guinevere met the Young Squire who was engaged with the fair Elaine. Volpone and the Jew of Malta were arguing about the price of ripe tomatoes. The Yong Squyer told Guinevere that Palamon and Arcite were conciliated. How do you like housekeeping in Minneapolis? asked the squire. I think that it is just wonderful. The American young mother has it so nice. Do you know that yesterday I cooked a little puny fish for Kit Marlowe? said Guinevere. Yes. your husband. Arthur, told me that he and Marlowe fought over it. Tomorrow Linda Condon and Faust us are matched for a tennis set. Here is Sir Pcrcivale. He is now a brother at the De La Salle. You know he used to belong to the Round Table. I must see how Vivien’s son is progressing. He is my ward. Good-by. Won’t you come for dinner some evening? I’m sure Arthur and I will be delighted to talk over the Good-old-days.

Of course we wiped their tears away And gave them this advice— “You’d better mind the rules, my dears. And keep your books about. Or they'll tell you to put on your duds And Just Walk Out.” And all these little Freshmen dear. Have been so good and true. They work and work, and nothing shirk And have so much to do.

Origin of 'Vanity Oases An Enterprising Junior Contributes The Following Bit Op Research On The Antiquity Op The Vanity Case THERE arc vanity cases of white gold, platinum, beaten silver, black enamel. and plain gold. But none of these evidences of feminine vanity have excited the learned men of this age as much as the discovery of an ancient compact. encrusted with precious jewels, unearthed from the tomb of a belle who lived five thousand years ago. At last the source of the modern maid's craving to be beautiful, and “white as a lily has been traced to its first cause. She has inherited this desire along with the antique vanity case, from the courtly dames of prehistoric times. No doubt, the beautiful lady of 6000 B. C. kept her compact ever near, else why was it placed in her last resting place with her? Miss Modern may now flourish her vanity case unabashed, since mankind is satisfied, that in so doing she but follows in the footsteps of her sisters, whose names have not reached our generation. However, the question may be asked by her and her ultra-fashionable companions. “Why? Oh! why? must the stamp of eons of time be placed on an object before it is accepted by querulous man?” Ruth Norris 'By the Fireside When the wind howls through the rafters And the shutters groan and creak.

It took some time to get accustomed to obeying bells and wearing uniforms. But when once settled down to school life again, we entered whole-heartedly into the work of our Sophomore year. Early in the term we elected our class officers, all of whom proved worthy of our trust. In October, we had a class party, which was one of the most pleasant events of the year. Then the dreaded tests were upon us. But we survived them, and tried to forget them so as to cultivate happier thoughts. And what could help us more to do this than dear old Christmas, now so near. But it came and went, as it always does, although we so longed to hold it fast. School again, and tests not far off. Those dreaded tests are truly pests, but we made earnest preparation to meet and conquer them, and so we arc still living. March fifteenth was the opening day of our retreat, which was conducted by our favorite retreat Master. Father Cullen. Those three days were most happy and beneficial. We learned many important lessons, which we hope never to forget. Early in April, the classes entered upon a contest to raise money for the building of a new convent in St. Paul. We proved our loyalty to S. M. A. by doing our best to win. We also did our part in securing advertisements for our much-prized annual, the DAYESYE. Then the sweet lovely month of May. and a few rare days in June brought our happy Sophomore year to a close.

At the top we met Sister Henrica. who greeted us with a smile and a cheery good-morning. “Take your time, dears, and do not hurry. I enjoy seeing a few girls stroll in at intervals. It breaks the monotony for me. Then she commented on our gaily-colored dresses and Roman striped hair bands. 1 forgot to mention we were going to the “State” after school. “Really, girls, you can t imagine how monotonous it is to see blue and white, blue and white.

October Our first high school tests came and passed. What a sigh of relief! It could have been so much worse. November Early in November, our dreaded marks came by mail. Some were happy, more or less. But some were sad. December The last day before our Christmas vacation we had a most delightful class party. Dear Old Santa came on the scene. The tree, the gifts and all that makes Christmas was most heartily enjoyed by us all. January With the new term, came some new freshmen, so we began to feel quite important. We were no longer the infants of the school, and we could now give the new freshmen many wise warnings. February Work began on push-cards and later on advertisements for our annual, in both of which we did our best, and won much praise. March The most important event of March was our three days’ retreat, given by Father Cullen. It was the best retreat we ever made, and we shall not soon forget it. April Easter vacation was the most interesting event of April. We sold tickets for a benefit movie at the State Theater, and made a grand success.

Marie Morgan £ 102 $ 0 J lA 'Dream AS we were on our way to the Olympic Games, we met many of our old school chums. The first one was Hester McNulty. Although she was nearly twenty-five, she had not changed a bit since we were freshmen. We asked her what she was going to Europe foi. and she said: I am going to learn how to pronounce those Greek names I used to have so much trouble with.” We did not get a chance to see her again for our boat landed. The next morning as we were walking over the Acropolis, we saw Doris Zierath standing on the base of the statue Athene, preaching to the people about Socrates and the Plebians. In reply to our inquiry as to how she had ever picked such an occupation. she said: “I always loved Ancient History ever since I was a fresh- man.” Continuing on our way, we met Marie Morgan. We asked her what she was doing here, and she replied: ”1 am writing poetry for Father Bctten to publish in the Ancient History book.” Visiting the Delphic Oracle, we found Margaret Donohue. Jeanne Katherine and Gertrude Shoff consulting the priests as to whom was the greater. Alexander or Pericles. We did not stay to the end of the interview, but no doubt Alexander won. Later that evening, we went to the theater and who should we see on the stage but Eusibe and Maxine vainly trying to impersonate Plato and Aristotle. After leaving the theater, we saw Virginia and Mary Swartly auctioning Ancient relics at a fire sale at the tomb of Themistacles. Next, who should we see but Margaret Hastings. Edna and Helen Kelly going from house to house strongly recommending Bettcn’s Ancient History as the most impossible to understand. That evening we met Evelyn and Julia, and they told us that they were Anaspacias' Advisors. Here we were informed that Mary Holmes and Margaret Pilney were loking for the lost arm of Venus, and the head of the Wingless Victory along the walls of the Piraeus. Much to our surprise, we found ourselves a short distance from the Olympic Fields where. Behold! there stood Dorothy Hale guarding the entrance. Remembering ancient times, she sought to exclude us because of our position as women. Our old friend Theresa Casey, who was judge of the races, came to our aid however, and in a body of the old Ancient History class of S. M. A. enjoyed the world-famous races.

A man's a man for a’ that.” ARE we. or are we not monkeys? Truly, the orang-utan, the chimpanzee. the gorilla, as well as many of their kith and kin. have each at least one apparent affinity to us. with manifold variations, of course. Hence this time-worn topic. Evolution; this bone of contention for scientists and super-scientists and sub-scientists has some of the characteristics of Ivory Soap, for it floats even in muddy water. Our modern, up-to-date scientists, despairing of finding the missing link, have evolved a pre-anthropoid, pre-ape. pre-monkey, pre-man stock, one billion years removed. Well done. Master Scientist. Using this theory as a working basis, you are at least not breaking the speed-laws of saltatory evolution. But don't you fear. Master, that if you keep sliding backwards across this chaos platform, you may fall off some dusky evening and get hurt? And now cheer up. dear neighbor friend of mine. You are no more of a monkey than I am: and your grand-sire was no more of an ape than mine was: which on the whole, may be saying little for you or me or the monkey. Moreover. why. after all. should we take this monkey relationship so unkindly? And may not the dwellers of monkeydom and apedom be revolting against the insinuation? Grandpa Ape never had to earn his bread by the sweat of his brow. When his family was hungry, he tossed them a ready-made cocoanut to crack, and hied himself off with his ape-team for a game of cocoanut ball. Nor did Grandma Monkey have to clean and scrub and bake and rub as our grandmas did. •S 108 So from an ape point of view, and we are all apish, this ancestoral affinity has its advantages. This may account for the fact that many of us cultivate monkey habits. The monkey cages at circuses always draw a crowd of admiring spectators. Children never tire of seeing Grandpa Ape and Grandma Ape perform in the movies. But above all. many women of high society have manifested a broadminded. scientific, acknowledgment of their relationship to Father Ape and Mother Monkey. To show how absolutely they have broken down the barriers. they would adopt a little monkey any day. instead of one of God’s little children. Hence with these fair mortals, a gilded chain with a monkey at the end is more popular than a tiny wheel carriage with a baby in front. But to get back to the science of it—If it took a billion years for a monkey to become a man. how long will it take a man to become a monkey? Perhaps it is that animal instinct in men that makes some of them stubborn as mules, cross as bears, hungry as lions, proud as peacocks, wise as serpents, simple as doves: and helps them in their foxy ways to run like hares, fight like tigers, jabber like parrots, and sing like larks. But “God is in Heav n and all is right with the wold: so whatever we do about monkey shines, let us keep on singing with the lark. Anna Rohrs Spring has come with its many showers.

The Senoritas of the Spanish Class had just finished the thrilling legend of Pedro el Cruel and dismissed with the dubious compliment that they, as a class, were thoroughly imbued with the spirit of the land of Manana. They strolled off leisurely, wandering heedlessly through the dreamy realms of their predilection. Our self-styled Conchita. captivated by the fine melodious note of a nearby thrush, is soon lost in oblivion. The books that held her stock in trade of Spanish phrases had slipped to the green knoll beneath, and Conchita's romantic Spirit had sped on gossamer wings to revel amid the glories of Andalusian beauty. Never before had Conchita beheld so many and such fairy-like scenes. From the dizzy heights of the Giralda. that marvel of Moorish architecture, to which some woodland elf had led her. she looked over the white city of Seville, glistening in the southern sunshine beneath. She feasted her eyes on the lovely patios, with their marble fountains and bright flowers: it all seemed a little paradise, enclosed. Beyond there are the narrow winding streets, with their curious shrines and niches, and plainly could her searching gaze discern the Calle de las Sierpes. just as it is described in her Espana Pintorcsca lying harmless at her feet. But look: beyond are those not the terraced gardens of the Moorish Alcazar? And surely Conchita caught the sweet fragrance of the orange blossoms and lemon trees now in bloom! But hark! faintly, softly, through the tranquil air. as if floating up ftom the sparkling Guadalquiver. came strains of music now more and more distinct, above the notes of the guitar, rose the soulful voices of the gypsies in the songs they love to sing. Our enchanted Spanish student feared to breathe lest the vision would fade away. Ah! suddenly, as if divining the innermost wishes of the dreamer s heart, the happy band ceased their aimless strolling, and in the shade of some myrtles near a marble fountain, gave vent to joyful spirits in a maze of light fantastic steps. As the harmonious rhythm of the castagnets died away. Conchita gave a cry of delight, while those gaily attired children of nature resumed their care-free wandering. •g $ Jdcu Uf As her enraptured eye fell on the shining domes of blue Azueleos. Conchita was thinking. What a wonderful country is this where care and hurry are unknown—where the air is redolent with music and song. These happy people have surely schools or some restraining discipline. How could she solve this puzzle? Should she question these dark-eyed Senoritas, who are amusing themselves in the park not far away? But of what avail? They might pause to look surprised at her concern, and with a shrug of their dainty shoulders, utter the old familiar Quien Sabc!!! A stinging lash of a whip rent the air. but was never meant to touch the back of the dreamy mule slowly meandering to nowhere. A lusty voice intoned lechuaga a un perro chico lechuaga. So this is the land of Manana. The golden Andalusian sun was high in the heavens, as the bells of the Campanile pealed out their mellow notes, and as if with one accord, all Seville was on its knees to breathe forth to another paradise beyond those fleecy clouds Angelus Domini Maria. Habits, they tell us. are chains which bind us fast. Those bells spelled noon-day to Conchita's hungry spirit. The fresh green lechuga. too. was suggestive. The inner man was knocking, knocking at the dreamer's physical anatomy, and the last notes of the Giralda became what they were in reality, but the clanging of the old familiar lunch bell. With an awful suddenness, our airy wanderer was restored to her native land of ultra practicality, and a most substantial repast was none too much for her tired frame. Margaret Anderson.

It is situated in the southeast corner of Room 5. and the only requirement to be transferred to this institution is the stage of unpreparedness: as soon as signs of this critical condition are discovered one is forthwith directed to this isolated alcove, supplied with paper, pencil, and a perfectly good Spanish Grammar—with directions to make free use of all. all the time.

All the sentiments that find place in the human heart, all the passions that rend the soul may fittingly find expression in this musical phrase. Only a native born can bring to it just that degree of a shrug as the situation may demand, for it is adaptable to joy or sorrow, grief or pain, in so far as easy going people experience these emotions. Just how much? Quien sabe. Its easy and frequent use among the senoritas of the Spanish class, lends to them a certain air of linguistic distinction, and eloquently intimates that a goodly supply of vocabulary would flow ad infinitum quien sabe.

IN spite of the many hardships endured by the Vergil class in their conscientious struggle with the “Aeneid. they, like Aeneas himself, have slowly overcome the many obstacles that beset the path of learning. However, this has not been accomplished without the lavish use of midnight oil. and a scandalous habit of keeping company with the “wee small hours.” when the very gods themselves, that so harassed Aeneas, have ceased their evil-doings, leaving both this victim of fate and ourselves free to deliberate upon the best means to overcome the difficulties surrounding us. Yet do not think we are not repaid for all this extravagant use of time, for in the end we not only know how to translate Arma vir-umque cano.” but by following Aeneas, have traveled through huge caves where Venti. indignantes magno cum murmure montis circum claustra fremunt.” Yes. each and every one of us has gone through furious storms at sea. not to mention having witnessed such a “terrific siege as the Trojan War. and as Aeneas escaped the “Saevae memorem Iunonis ob iram.” so we the Vergil class of nineteen twenty-five have safely sailed the seas of learning, and anchored lacti into the harbor of knowledge.

Too. you must be prepared for that feeling of ignorance, that steals over you as you begin to translate. “Omnis Gallia in tres partes divisa est.” Yes. our advice to you. Dear Freshmen, is to do your best and keep in mind the time when you will be able to listen, as the Juniors do now. to the wonderful orations of Cicero. In your mind's eye you will see him in the forum denouncing the wretched Cateline. and at home writing letters to his Tulliola declaring that he will not write longer letters to people who will not write longer letters to him. “O temporal O mores! that we cannot listen in on these speeches all ready translated for us over the radio!

But. now a word for our La Sodalitas Latina formed in 1921. it will always be a sweet thought in our memories.

On every side, blending in harmonious tints we find reproductions of scenery, costumes, artists and writers; unconsciously, we are suddenly transported to another clime. We bow. oh so gracefully' (after much weary practice before a full length mirror), then chirp: Bon jour. Ma Soeur! In quick response to the ever- present inspiration, a rapid fire of remarks flows back and forth. Always, be it understood, in the language of the gods. True, the speed may slacken as we try our skill on the conjugations, but alas' have not the worthiest people a skeleton in the closet ? Knowledge, in our French class is not confined to interesting textbooks. —no. indeed, our bulletin board is the envy of the other language classes. How could French be hum drum or monotonous with so much variety of detail—so much novelty? Then the delightful talks on Marie Antoinette and the palace of Versailles, the picturesque homes, customs and traditions of the beauty-loving peasants. French, we unanimously agree is by far the most entertaining most interesting and profitable language known, and our corner of Sunny France is our ideal class-room, where our imaginations are never checked, and to which we bring our best efforts. “Vive la petite France.

'26 S 118 § J) The French Town ON September the Eighth of the year 1925 there assembled within the stately halls of our Alma Mater, a group of intellectuals, fired with the laudable ambition of establishing a little French town. The requisite, artistic atmosphere for such an enterprise having been previously supplied, ways and means were discussed and to forestall any such inconvenience as occurred at the erection of the Tower of Babel—we consented to a practical course in phonetics, which, allow me to say must not be taken too seriously, because the more thoroughly your mouth be wreathed in smiles the more beautiful the French vowel. The foundations arc dug deep and laid on the hard bedrock of three different types of French verbs—the super-structures are harmoniously combined of well chosen adjectives and nouns. In the course of time we anticipate crowning our individual structures, according to their size and merit, with picturesque gables, pinnacles and hirrets formed of those multifarious pronouns and prepositions of which there is an infinite variety. Under the watchful eye of the architct. our French homes are rearing skyward. Fime is speeding on. but the nature and purpose of our work renders it sweet, we are constantly reminded that the recompense for perseverence will be great even in this world. I must not forgt that our plan has included some resorts for amusement, which are situated in the suburbs. The one a dainty pavillion The Echoes of Normandy —wherein we exercise our vocal talents on delightful little folk songs. The other is a more unique style of architecture suited to the popular French cross-word puzzle. All kind friends and patrons of the DAYESYE arc cordially invited to call upon us at the scene of our new venture, and we gladly assure a welcome, such as only the French can give.

Of course we all intend, after completing our course here, to take a trip to La Belle France either in the diplomatic service or in some other governmental capacity (or in the steerage?) and render gifts of service to our native land. But as the eye of authority is upon me at the present moment it is quite probable that my literary ambitions will be suppressed very shortly, so. as a parting word, gentle reader.

I thought that somewhere down the line, someone might utter a familiar sound—vainly did I hope to hear the one French phrase I knew—Parlez Vous Francais. Now I know this was taken for granted. Once in a while some kind student would relieve the tension by endeavoring to use her native tongue, but alas!

'25 $ 121 g J aycdyc — 'The econd Qampaign of the dM.ath fegion % ON September seventh, nineteen twenty-four, two legions met in the Math Camp to begin training under their victorious leader. The campaign was mapped out. and the legions started drilling. For a month they drilled in Geometric Figures, for it was necessary to conquer these lesser enemies before beginning a march into the country of Optical Illusions. After much training, the commander pronounced them fit to declare war. and accordingly they set out for the country mentioned above. The first battle was fought at the Congruent Triangles. After a hard battle the legions were victorious. About thirty days of constant fighting saw them masters of the entire country. Some of the soldiers were seriously wounded, and others were exhausted, so they pitched camp for a brief rest. The rest was soon interrupted, for word was sent to the commander that the Parallel Line barbarians were plundering the frontiers of the Polygons. The commander immediately rallied the legions, and they marched against the marauders. The two forces met at Tangent Circles, and for awhile it seemed that the enemy would be the victor. The commander moved among the soldiers, cheering and encouraging them to do their best. Finally, by a system of Hormonic Division the legions won. They were now called to the south to subdue an uprising of the Similar Triangles. The enemy was taken by surprise, and the cry of Death and no quarter' rang out. Order was soon restored, and for each conquered country, laws were passed. For Optical Illusions the Law of Proportion, for the Parallel line barbarians. the Law of Cosines, and for the Similar Triangles, the Law of Sines. The legions were victorious over the most dreaded enemies, and each soldier went his way for a well-earned furlough. Ralpha James 'S 122 g -$4 £)aye4yc. — M.Lind HORIZONTAL 1. Mimic 6. Compactly 12.

We arc able to judge this by the large attendance at recitals, and the vital interest manifested by girls who have never been students in this department. It is also made apparent by the marked advancement and the fine, musical sensibility shown by those taking part in recitals, as well as by invitations of Musical Clubs for our students to compete in city-wide contests and to play at public recitals. St. Margaret's Music Department is fast becoming known and appreciated throughout the city. On March second. Mr. SlI.VlO SCIONTI. of Chicago, honored us by a very interesting program. The recitals of Mr. Scionti are greatly appreciated by the students, as the most important musical event of the year. The program this year was unusually good. All his numbers were deeply appreciated and his wonderful technique and interpretation are to remain long in our memory. The students' recitals were presented tri-weekly, in the Recital Hall, thus affording entertainment, and an opportunity for public appearance. Saturday was reserved for the grade-school children. LILLIAN LAYDEN, a graduate of the Music Department, won second prize in a contest sponsored by the Thursday Musicale. She played Rigo-letto” by Liszt. We are all justly proud for the credit reflected on the Department. Miss Laydcn received her Teacher’s Certificate in '23, and her graduation Diploma in ’24. Ruth LuNDCREN ThIEDE also received great commendation for her rendering of Chopin's A flat Polonaise at one of the Thursday Musicale meetings. On April 26.

Others in the cast were Anna May Wightman, Evelyn Gulden. Agnes Ward. Evelyn Carlston. Zetta Pound. Frances Noethen. COLLETTA SCHERBER. and LOUISE LECLERCQ. Reflected Glory,” a comedy in one act. was later presented by ARDYCE LaPray. Frances Keating, Marion DeVoy. Dorothy Slater. Kathleen MADER and Helen May Davis. Ardyce. in her role of actress, proved beyond a doubt, her ability to act a part in life when called upon. FRANCES KEATING, as usual, was pleasing in her comic interpretation of an energetic Club leader. Both castes deserve much credit for their splendid work in their respective plays. Bi-weekly Recitals were in vogue during the months of January. February. March. April and May. In these Recitals the participants were given an opportunity to test their poise, and ability to think before an audience. It was gratifying to note, as the Recitals progressed, how efficient the students had become in Platform Art. and how their reading gave evidence of hard work and careful technical training. Story telling, and impersonations of all kinds were given by the students, and if outward appearances count, we may safely say each one was thoroughly appreciated by the audience. A delightful evening was given to us on April Thirtieth, when THELMA SLATTERY, of the Advanced Class, gave her splendid reading of the five-act play. Smilin’ Through. Thelma’s charming personality, together with her truthful characterization, wins her a place in our hearts from the start. Her spoken song numbers were also very pleasing. S 131 § BERNADETTE Kischel, in a Miscellaneous Program, gave evidence of her marked Dramatic ability and her ready adaptation to the foot-lights. We look for a great future for Bernadette. After a very successful year we brought our efforts in Dramatics to a close, and our earnest hope for the continuance of Dramatic work descends to the Class of Twenty-Six. that its Expression Department may grow better and larger with the years. Evelyn Carlston. '25 132 g £)cU C U THE greater number of the Class of ’24 is still attending school. The College of St. Catherine claims Helen Cavanaugh, Florence Peterson, Sally Spofford, Catherine Fox, Grace Casey, Rose Dufaud, Carol Rolph and Helen Noon.

Marguarite La Pierre. ’21. is the popular and efficient president of the Senior Class at the College of St. Catherine. 3 133 At our interesting Mid Year Meeting, the Rev. Father Hoey of Minneapolis. gave an instructive discourse on Catholic Women's Activities. Miss Regina Vincent, our delegate to the convention of International Federation of Catholic Alumnae, submitted a comprehensive report of what transpired at the Convention in Philadelphia, last October. Cardinal Gasparri cabled this message from Pius XI to the Catholic Ladies: Holy Father sends thanks for homage and devotion of the International Federation of Catholic Alumnae and highly satisfied with its work, sends Apostolic Benediction. The Right Reverend Monsignor Pace. Director of the Federation, emphasized the thought That an alumnae of a Catholic School cannot and must not live to themselves alone. During the year 1924. Mrs. Harry M. Benziger. President of I. F. C. A., went to Europe and there visited affiliated schools. She enjoyed a visit with Cardinal Mercier. and our Holy Father Pius XI honored her with an interview. The various departments of the organization reported on the year’s activities and a special plea was made for the Sisters' College. Washington. D. C. The members of the Federation were reminded to be faithful to the Saturday or Alumnae Communion Day. and to lend their assistance to the erection of the National Shrine on the grounds of the Catholic University. A meeting of all the graduates of schools conducted by Sisters of St. Joseph, was held at the Ritz-Carleton Hotel, and a St. Joseph unit was formed. The purpose of this association is simply to further friendship among those who claim St. Joseph Sisters’ Schools for their Alma Mater. Miss McCandless. an officer of the I. F. C. A., stated that the purpose of the Federation was to uphold the ideals of Catholic Womanhood, to reflect in daily life a knowledge of God. a love of God. and a willingness to serve Him in serving the neighbor. Margaret McEachf.rn Regina Vincent. MARY HARROUN. President S 134 § 4$ J)ac £ U c MISS REID, our gymnasium teacher, is just one of us in the games. If you steal down to the playroom on Monday morning, or watch a game of volley ball on the campus, you will see for yourself. The Freshjnen and Sophomores arc masters of all they survey in athletics, as the upper classes may not indulge in these exercises during school hours. Occasionally, a dignified Senior stops to watch and to listen to familiar directions: Left, right, you're all out of step but Ruth! Now. girls. I must tell you the whole truth— When you do the dumb-bell drill. You puff as though you climb a hill. Now. choose sides for volley ball: Be careful, girls. I fear you'll fall. The merry jostling for good places is controlled by Miss Reid's gentle, but firm command: “Fall in line, girls, the smaller ones in front. Now all look pleasant, we'll have our pictures taken. Too soon the bell rings, and we hurry off to more serious studies, thankful that we are under classes just for gymnasium period. Margaret Donohue, ’28 Margaret Pilney. '28 g 135 £ Jolly Juniors, sober Seniors Often heave a heavy sigh. When they see the under classes Playing games—and must pass by. But no matter how the heart aches. They never more may play While the classes are in session In the dear old Freshman way. Ethel Shepro 136 £ ax e U £. daughter DID you ever stop to think what laughter is? Did you ever try to find out what it is? Do not waste your time searching through dictionaries or psychologies. You will be farther away than ever. Why. a laugh is just a smile when u bursts. Laughter is an enemy to malice, a foe to scandal, a guardian angel to every virtue. Laughter chases gloom, and makes the world a merry-go-round. In olden times, a king's court was not complete without the fool, or jester to make him laugh. And this character was often a wiseman in disguise. A laugh at others, that cutting, malicious message, has no place here. I do not like to spoil my laughing message by even mentioning it. Away with it. The ability to see the laughing side of everything is a valuable asset along life's way. Laugh yourself and you will feel better. Make your friend laugh, and he will be happier. Make your enemy laugh, and he will hate you less. Make a stranger laugh, and he will have more confidence in you. Make the sorrowful laugh, and you will lessen their grief. Make, the despondent laugh, and you will raise their hopes. Make the old laugh, and they will feel young. Make the child laugh, and he will be a better child. So keep your smiles bursting all along life’s road. Agnes Ward 138 --Jdcuvu c. lAdvice to the Cfacuity WE. the Seniors of St. Margaret s Academy, having been enriched by four years' training under your artful guidance, feel qualified to offer the following suggestions: 1. A light placed directly over the mirror on the third floor would enable the girls to present a better appearance at all times. 2. A “cut system really should be established for the Seniors, permitting at least one cut a week, the number increasing with the approach of the spring fever epidemic. 3. The girls have long felt the need of a meeting place more exclusive chan the corners and halls, the same fitted out with easy chairs, cushions, davenports and a victrola with the latest records, where, in an atmosphere of ease and comfort, they may study to their heart's content. 4. The students ought to have the privilege of planning the lecture program. and make their own attendance optional. 5. The Sisters should co-operate with Father Cullen in his noble ambition by having monthly parties for the St. Thomas' boys and the girls of St. Margaret's, thus helping him to realize his hope of bringing the students of the two schools together. 6. During the past year so much has been done in improving the library, that we feel it would be complete with the addition of a branch of the cafeteria placed there for the convenience of the Seniors. 7. Now, you good Sisters so dislike tardiness, we think it would be a bright idea for Sister Gregoria who rings the tardy bell at 8:30. to go outside and look up and down Thirteenth and Fourteenth Streets to sec if there be laggard girls on the way. If there be so. she should wait until they arrive before sounding the knell. We are certain that this would greatly diminish the number of tardy marks, and thus raise the standard of the attendance record. Knowing, dear Sisters, in what high esteem you hold the judgment of our Class, we feel confident that you will very gladly take heed of these wise suggestions.

Only 3 Y inches exposure together with a reinforcing angle brace at the butt makes curling and flapping impossible. Wooden shingles have spaces between adjoining shingles through which heat can escape in winter. Imagine the loss one sustains from this cause besides the original labor and superfluous nails used in putting them on. The MASTER SLAB shingle is designed so as to overcome this defect by covering the roof like a blanket from ridge to eaves, with no openings between shingles and they require only 4 nails. MASTER SLAB ROOFS are made in six beautiful natural stone colors, unfading and permanent. Besides the plain colors, shingles of the various shades come already mixed in the proper proportion to give attractive cool and also warm variegated effects.
