Italy Visiting Director 9 Aii Appreciation Etching high lights of dear school life, a familiar, priestly figure stands smiling on the rostrum. A holy torch bearer is he. with a heavenly message for the Grail Seekers. It is Father Reardon, in his ever friendly attitude towards Saint Margaret's. To him. then we gratefully and reverently dedicate this page of our Memory Book. While admitting our inability to garb, in becoming language, the debt of gratitude we owe him. we know that he is great enough to recognize our willing effort. In the days of his heaviest burdens and greatest worries, while completing the Basilica of Saint Mary, he was our prompt and faithful weekly lecturer. In our all-school and Alumnae religious activities, the grand Basilica is ours, with unstinted splendor of light and music. We sense his willingness to serve us in any way. and feel at home to ask a favor of him at any time. T he Class of Twenty-Eight shall ever hold Father Reardon s name in grateful veneration. Lorraine Mulheran. 10 It has been the privilege of the Class of Twenty-Eight to have had Father Keefe as an instructor during their entire high school career. Although words are incompetent to portray the service he has rendered us. yet we feel that our Memory Book would be incomplete without our frail attempt to remind him of our deep appreciation and gratitude. His course in Apologetics, his Question Box. his splendid lecture on Science Religion made our Senior Religion work very interesting. In his scholarly, yet simple way. he has clarified the outstanding principles of our Catholic belief, and instilled into our hearts a just and holy pride in the grand old Faith of the ages. Through his inspiration may our dear Class never falter in their quest for Ideal Christian Womanhood. Dorothy Stoat. REV. GEORGK NV. KEEFE The Sophomore and Freshman Religion Classes greatly appreciated Father Doran’s Lectures. His whole-serious, yet half-humorous manner of expounding his subject meets the approval of all his young hearers, and makes his lecture hour not only most profitable, but also very pleasant. His talks on Sin. Faith, the Commandments, and the Beatitudes were clear, forceful, and convincing. His sincerity and earnestness have claimed our reverence. His pleasant smile, and his flashes of wit have dispelled fear, and won our friendship. May the seeds of light and wisdom which he has scattered among us find no barren soil, but bring forth a rich and heavenly harvest. Patricia Rochester. % 11 REV. CHARLES F. DORAN 77k Djyesye. Signor Silvio Scionti. our Visiting Music Director, is one of the most brilliant pianists of this country. As a member of the American Conservatory he has attained foremost rank as an instructor. His numerous recitals throughout the country have won him enthusiastic commendation from the entire musical and daily press. He is an honored soloist in the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, and the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra. Though a native of Sicily, he made his studies at the Conservatory of Naples, under such Masters as Cesi, Martucci and Rosso-mandi, graduating with highest honors at the early age of nineteen. Like all great people. Signor Scionti is approachable and sympathetic. When we play for him we feel that he is our Big Brother. Saint Margaret's Music students realize and appreciate the privilege of Signor Scionti's masterly criticism and kindly help. Betty Anne Plunkett. SIGNOR SILVIO SCIONTI Mr. Beck, our Choral Director, is a very important instructor at Saint Margaret’s, and is prominent in the musical activities of our City. On Sundays he makes the very walls of the grand Basilica of Saint Mary vibrate with rich harmonious tones. Thrilled, we ask ourselves. What must Heaven s music be?” On 'Tuesdays at the eleventh hour. the monotony of tasks suspends for a tuneful period, while we sing and listen to the song of life. The crowning glory of this year’s choral work will be the rendition, at Commencement. of Mozart's Magnificat. arranged by Professor Beck for women’s voices. The class of 'Twenty-Eight wish to assure Mr. Beck that Chorus Hour will ever live among happy memories. Lorraine Mulheran. 12 M 7 ?( Dayesye MISS ROSE DURCH Miss Durch has happily succeeded in getting the sophomores deeply interested in American authors, as well as in narrative and descriptive themes. An able, earnest, and devoted teacher, she has won the respect and confidence, not only of the Faculty, but of the young students under her supervision. In Latin, she has helped her class to cross the bridge with Caesar. ‘They came, they saw, they conquered' all their difficulties. MISS MARIE RYBAK The Class of Twenty-Eight will always associate Miss Rybak's name with happy sophomore days, when her kindly help made the dry, mathematical tasks interesting and enjoyable. Her sunny, cheerful disposition, her sincere interest in each member of her class, aroused faith, confidence and courage when mathematical clouds gathered thickest. Miss O'Brien has distinguished herself by the successful manner in which she has led the eager freshmen over the rugged path of first year English. Her unflinching devotion to duty, her kind, helpful suggestions, her after-time hours, could not fail to bring her young literary aspirants to victory. 13 MISS MARY O’BRIEN 7Xf (7)ayesw Miss Charlotte Stephens, our Art Instructor, has done much to fan the flame of artistic talent, and keep it burning brightly among the art students. An able and willing teacher, kind in criticism. Miss Stephens has made our study of Art very interesting and successful. The Seniors are grateful to her for her patient, helpful interest while decorating this Book. MISS CHARLOTTE STEPHENS Miss Starr, our Gymnasium Teacher, has won the respect, confidence, and love of the sophomores and freshmen, by her tact and whole-souled interest in her department of work. Fond of games and sports herself, she is just one of us in the exercises. She leads. We follow. We go to Gymnasium period light of foot and light of heart, and only regret that it is all too short. MISS HELEN STARR 14 MR. WILLIAM McGINNIS “Old Faithful11 J_JE’S around here in the morning. He’s around here late at night. And every time you need him He hops right into sight. We call him just “McGinnis.” His cronie is William, true: They do the work at S. M. A. For the Nuns and me and you. He keeps us warm and cozy When the mercury falls low: And his smoke is always curling When the wintry blasts do blow. He clears the walks in winter Before the break of dawn: If you come around in summer. You can see his velvet lawn. To us he is “Old Faithful.” And we know him by his smile: And when we go we’ll miss him. For he's been here quite a while. Mary Meyer. 15 MR. WILLIAM HILL Our Snow Bound Campus HPHE wind harp s moaning and groaning Had waked me in a fright— Look out! What pallid scenes were wrought That blizzard-stricken night! Our three rich, ruddy buildings Were decked in downy white; And when the sun flashed on them. They were a wondrous sight. Forms of snow-white beauty Stood out in the morning light. Like sentinels frozen on duty. But still kept watch all night. As we gaze on that realm of whiteness In the calm of the noon-day light. Our thoughts mount up to the Master Who can change all the world in a night. Mary Meyer. 16 Front Main Such scenes have power to quiet The restless pulse of care. A MINUTE’S walk from the noise and crowd to this quiet, calm retreat. A demure and stately mansion, standing so sublime: just grand enough to be simple, and simple enough to be grand. What tender, sacred memories this view recalls! Memories that grow fonder as they fade into the dim past-memories that pass in grand parade adown the aisles of thought. Here we first saw the gleam, lit our lamps of learning, and began our valiant quest. Then throbbed the high noblesse oblige that hence must urge us on. These are the things that touch the heart Like the swell of an old refrain: For these are the things men died for. And they beckon us home again. Mary Holmes. 17 The West Main Porch “And so it chanced, for many a door was wide From hurry to and fro. 'T'O THE casual passer-by. just an old stone porch: but to the girls of Saint Margaret's, an archway of golden girlhood dreams. It was from this porch they first stepped across the threshold of their Alma Mater. Here their young hearts trembled with excitement as they opened that mystic door that admitted them to high school life. Here again those same hearts leaped with joy and wonder after that first blessed day at the Academy. And here for four happy school years, they hurried to and fro for classes, music, lunch, and home, as they laughed and chattered in school-girl ways. If care with freezing years should come. How soothing this scene will be. Theresa Casey. J 8 The walls are full of music drawn From twitterings in the eaves at dawn. V HEN the great snowstorm came to our Campus. it found itself un-molested at South Main, where it plied its artful craft in building shapes fantastic. It left a scene of wondrous, alabaster beauty. Our cameras caught it. In summer, the south view holds two very interesting features—Woodbine covers the entire wall, even trespassing on the rich red roof, and climbing the massive chimneys. This vine is the sparrows' Paradise. Here they sport, and spat and sputter, three seasons of the year, rousing the Nuns ere the matin bell for prayer, and chasing the welcome robins from their holdings. But the greater attraction is the little flickering flame, seen through all the windows, bowing and trembling before the King of Kings, consuming itself in vigil through the crowded day. and the lonely stillness of the night. Jeanne Halloran. South Main Snow-bound 19 I £ « u ---- “9 - ytsvE Our Porte-Cochere “What is this life if. full of care. We have no time to stand and stare?” A UNIQUE view of dear old Main is from the north side, where stands our inviting porte-cochere. This little snap of it registers two mental pictures —a gay past, and a dear past. Three score ago. or more, it was the entrance and the exit for the elite of our City, brought by prancing steeds to grand receptions. These were the pioneer days, with no Tea Rooms, no Athletic Clubs—neighborly days, when homes and hearts were big. Then came Saint Margaret’s: the atmosphere changed. Sweet, happy school-girls, in simple uniforms. have replaced the society guests. Many times a day they pass in and out this way. in search of the golden grains of knowledge which they are gathering from various studies. It is this dear scene that wakes the flame like incense grains on memory's altar. Marie Morgan. 20 77)i 7)ayes e Class Building Snow-Bound “A bitter chill it was! The owl for all his feathers was a-cold. WHEN in the future, time and care may have dimmed dear school day scenes, this page will call up many precious memories of happy days at Saint iMargaret’s. Here we spent our freshman and sophomore years: here we heard the speedy clicking of machines, preparing for the commercial side of life: here we received our gymnastic training: here our feet often tripped to merry music: here we marveled at the courage and sacrifice of hardy pioneers. God’s very own people: here we quailed at the shots 'heard round the world ; here we watched aghast the smoke of battles, and wept for the fallen hero. And here these humble walls mutely listened, as we tried to orate like Cicero, or sing like Virgil. But our eyes are misty now. We quietly close our Memory Book and try to hum a happy song, until we are more alone. Mary Meyer. 21 Our Music Building Thy memory be as a dwelling place For all sweet sounds and harmonics. UR dear old Music Building hath charms to soothe — charms all its very own. The Building is a symphony in itself, harmonious in its complex rhythm of doors and windows, its dormer lights, its creeping vines without: its high walls, its exquisite carvings within. Dimly seen through the silence that lies between now and then, something has woven a magic here that links us to girlhood days. Here we first timidily touched the keys: here we gave our recitals: here in fear and trembling we waited our turn to play for Scionti. And so from the beginner's pound to the artist's finished touch, those strains will ever resound in memory's hall. Truly. The song is ended but the melody lingers on.” Virginia Libby. Campus Memories The dearest spot you'll ever find. Go you where you may. There is no place that’s more beloved Than the campus of S. M. A. Each of the stately buildings Is packed with stories dear: The stories of tender friendships. That were made in school days here. And though time may bleach its color rich And crumple these dear walls. It can never blast the friendships That were formed in these dear halls. Memory Lane When I am old and tired and weary. And whether in joy or in pain. I know I shall always find comfort. When I wander down Memory Lane. I shall shut my eyes in contentment. Remembering a dear refrain. And softly I’ll sing of my schooldays. When I wander down Memory Lane. My girlhood dreams shall haunt me, My longings both simple and sane, I shall see the dear old school house When I wander down Memory Lane. My teachers, my pals, and the others. As we went through sunshine and rain. I shall see them again in dreamland. When I wander down Memory Lane. Then sweetest of all, the Chapel. Where the Master of all will deign To smile as He did in my schooldays. When I wander down Memory Lane. Margaret Neiuman. 23 '7 )e Y)l lyesye Evening F;ar in the east the first star shone. Bright in the blue, and all alone; And as the shades begin to fall. We hear from the brush the whippoorwill's call. Sweet and clear to his mate he calls. To return to her nest ere darkness falls: And a faint, red glow in the golden west. Tells of the sun sinking down to rest. It is at this time of quiet and peace. That all our cares and troubles cease; For we feel the presence of Christ, the King. In the world about us—in everything. Gertrude Gallagher. Recollections Endearing, sweet days that have flown. Most joyous and happy of all. In Chapel, class room and campus: 'Those days, how I love to recall. Our tasks and our work being ended We pause, ere we go on our way. To stop at the Chapel, so peaceful. And kneel for a moment to pray. Marion McCardell. An Aged Nun Softly she glides 'Through the corridors dim. Her lips move in prayer Like the chant of a hymn. Her radiant face Casts a heavenly air. For her thoughts are of God. And His Mother so fair. Gertrude Williams. yrsve Our Little Chapel “Our trysting place with the Divine. npHE charm and quiet of our simple little Chapel will ever be a cherished memory that will shine forth in mystic beauty, like the afterglow of sunset in a twilight summer sky. It was here we came in school days, to tell our little tale of joy and sorrow to our Friend Divine. Here we felt the tender touch of His holy Presence, and our childish cares took flight. Praising and thanking Him. we withdrew from the sacred stillness, calmed, refreshed and comforted, having found infinite riches in a little room! Margaret Net Oman. But sec! the Chapel doors are open wide. A fragrance sweet pervades the sacred place: Our Guest Divine is calling. Come aside. And speak to Me in quiet. 'Face to Face . O holy hush! what calm, what peace you bring. As kneeling here we breathe our childish prayer, And with adoring Nuns we softly sing. Magnificat ! for all Thy blessings rare. 25 Marie Morgan. Our Friendship Stairs O wonderful, grand old stairway, With carvings rich, unique! But grander and richer the memories Thy rise and tread could speak! HAT a host of memories this scene recalls! Many abreast, merrily down they go. those dear, sweet girls of S. M. A. Not silence, but stage whisper reigns supreme, which often swells louder and louder as the bits of gossip are more exciting, and thoughtlessly, they chatter away the brief, passing minute with a dear companion. This little refrain from 'The Winter's Tale” gives the atmosphere: “Jog on. jog on. the foot-path way. And merrily hent the stile-a.“ In mystic vision, we call back all the girls of twenty years, and file them down the same old place in the same old way—but how changed the faces, the voices, the news! 26 Lorraine Mulheran. Our Study Hall “This learning—what a thing it is! •) rip IS a dear, dear place whose memories will play upon our heartstrings for-ever. In the retrospect we see many maids in many moods, but mostly happy—many dear Sisters with earnest, thoughtful, helpful looks. In our ears resound the learned lectures, and the rich strains of the lost chords that our Music Master drew from the old grand. But most of all. it was Our Study Hall. Hilclegarde Leese. The Hall of Studies, wherein every maid With eager earnestness for shining lore. In early youth hath a foundation laid. E’en such as scholars had in days of yore.

Chemistry Laboratory There is no lie in Nature: no discord in the revelations of science, in the laws of the Universe. ‘Said the Master to the youth: We are come in search of truth. We are reaching through His laws, To the garment-hem of Cause. THE great Agassiz said that the laboratory was a place of worship, into which he went with reverence to trace the laws of God. It is a kindred spirit that urges our chemistry students to undertake their daily work, so that under the safe guidance of our devoted Teacher, we come in closer contact with the elements of Nature, and hear the still, creative Voice that called them forth from chaos. Holy Church is the Mother of science. Light, more light. are words ever on her lips, for she recognizes true science as a “Divine Philosophy. Virginia Libby. 28 Botany and Biology Laboratory “Earth is crammed with Heaven. And every common bush alive with God; But only he who sees, takes off his shoes. OFT in the stilly future, when the curtain of care is lifted, our thoughts will saunter back to a dear sanctum of Alma Mater, our Botany and Biology Laboratory. Here, under the gentle inspiration of our faithful, painstaking Teacher, we peered into Nature's great volume. “Come wander with me. she said, “Into regions yet untrod, And read what is still unread In the manuscripts of God. And we marveled at the revelations and miracles disclosed there, while we felt our young minds soaring T hrough Nature up to Nature's God. Susan DcVoy. 29 Our Type Room A prim old Room where memories stir.” A S WE tread the upward, onward trail of life, we will often sit by the road-side to rest. Our Memory Book with us. we turn its pages to our little Type Room, and hear again the click.” “click” of the speed tests. Life was labor then as now. But how different! With a kind, encouraging Teacher, work was play, and success the shining goal ahead. Now. necessity goads us on. nor may we loiter, however weary. But the atmosphere of our little work room returns, and an inspiring voice is heard again: So close is glory to our dust. So near is God to man. When Duty whispers low. 'Thou must.' The youth replies. I can!' ” 30 Helen Brad key. fayesve 7) These Twenty Years npURNING back ihc recording pages to the birth year of Saint Margaret's, some might expect to find our dear Alma Mater wrapped in swaddling clothes. But posing there in the spotlight, is a Maid of ripened years, on whose brow are lines of learning, from whose eyes shines wisdom's light. Emanating, as she did. from the historic Holy Angels, with a full-fledged, accredited academic course, with well established departments of music and art. with a host of friends, admirers, and patrons, acquired by efficient service, she made her debut, and took her place in a new setting of our city, as the only Catholic High School for only girls. It was in the summer of 1907 that Mother Seraphine Ireland, then Provincial of the St. Paul Providence, decided to take over the McNair property for a new academy, and sent eight Sisters under the leadership of Mother Rosalia, to begin the work. The new institution was named St. Margaret’s by the late Archbishop John Ireland. 31 Bui mansion walls do not a palace make! Although this little band of workers were not called upon to suffer the nameless sacrifices of the pioneer laborers at Holy Angels, yet each Sister can tell tales of inconvenience and hardship endured in the early days of St. Margaret’s. With tender solicitude. Mother Rosalia gradually transformed the mansion into a comfortable and convent-like school and home. Her successor, the late Mother Seraphine. spared no energy, no means, in completing the work begun by Mother Rosalia. The educational demands upon the new academy were great, and helped the Sisters to forget their little personal discomforts. They faced the challenge to keep apace in the forward march of the phenomenal growth, of the marvelous transformations of educational progress. That they met and mastered the critical problems, and measured up to the highest expectations. St. Margaret s of today gives the answer. When the welfare of the students called for a distinct commercial department. it was readily equipped and successfully managed. When later, it seemed advantageous that the commercial department be absorbed by the high school, the change was promptly made. When in 1920. the high school outgrew its housings, the grades were reluctantly asked to vacate their apartments in favor of high school students. In the same year, the Department of Dramatic Art received a new stimulus under the direction and effective supervision of Sister Charitas. The music department, accredited to the academic, attained its well known standard rndcr the competent leadership of the late Sister Seraphine Comer. Sister Valeria, and Sister Annetta. Great things are expected of this department under the direction of Sister St. Margaret, who being a member of the first graduating class, received in religion the name of her Alma Mater. With always a zealous, efficient and certified staff, un- 32 7 k ‘Dayesye dcr the principalship. respectively of Sister Anna Mary. Sister Edwin.

Saint Margaret’s has kept abreast in the educational race these twenty years. Saint Margaret's has been blessed also in the Superiors who governed the community during the two decades of its existence. To name them, it claims the pious, prudent, devoted Mother Rosalia, the zealous, labor-loving, charitable Mother Seraphine Comer, the calm, kindly, scholarly Mother Clara, the intellectual, experienced, zealous Mother Francis Clare, and Mother Saint Rose, the former Provincial, who brings to the service of Saint Margaret s, her years of experience, and her spirit of prayer. May God prosper Saint Margaret s for decades to come, even as He has these twenty years. Saint Margaret’s. Hail! Thy years prolong! Alumnae hail Thee, A thousand strong! Down vistacd years.

The Orchestra Director raises his baton, and the audience is thrilled by the vibrating volume of the crescendo, as the Grand Registration March comes to a climax. Miss Gay September, in a chic ensemble of delicate green, thrills us by the rich beauty of her voice. The refrain of her solo still lingers: “By hill and vale September rules: The summer suns no longer burn: And in the woods and in the schools. The leaves, alas’ begin to turn. ’ 52 Miss Busy October, richly gowned in autumnal tints, after her grand Prelude, lends her rich voice in solo of the full Chorus. “The Burden of the Books.” Miss Sunny Chill November, in russet and deep green, features a Sonata of four movements, the themes of which are Press Conventions. Card Party. Retreat and Grand Home Coming. Miss Glad White December, in dazzling white, sparkling with diamonds, plays a Ballade which is suggestive of Festivities and New Locker gifts. Her short number is followed by an intermission, during which the orchestra plays selections from the “King of Kings.” Miss New Resolute January and Miss Bleak February now entertain with three short Etudes, arranged for two pianos. As their first number progresses, a feeling of sadness steals over us. while the solemn strains are suggestive of Examinations. Their second and third numbers revive our drooping spirits with gay and care-free notes of good marks, card parties, skating contests, and joyful Dayseye work. Miss Windy March favors us with a gay musical pianologue. debating the saneness of Hamlet. This number proved very popular with the learned audience.

Her other two 55 77k )(jyesye numbers. Diplomas and Magnificat.” were the richest, sweetest selections of the Recital. The final number was accompanied by the orchestra which thrilled the audience with the rich volume, gradually lowering like an artistic diminuendo. The rose glow that filters through the crystal chandelier grows dimmer and dimmer. A soft, filmy curtain is dropped upon the scene to hide the mist of tears. The lingering notes grow sweeter, softer, till they lose themselves in a silvery echo. Eyes are more dim. Hearts are throbbing with pain of partings. Alas! it is the passing of sweet, happy high school days. Marie Morgan. Dayesye Dates Founded by Mother Clara. 1920. First Prize in Interscholastic Contest. 1923. Entered no Contest. 1925.

The calm radiance of the vision startled me. Silently the cloud-like mist disappeared, and before me stood a woman. Her heavenly appearance, her trailing blue robes, her uplifted countenance, her very expression spoke of another world. I stood speechless. Surely this apparition could be no other than the Virgin Mary. As I stood enraptured, the sweetest smile 1 have ever seen appeared on her lovely face: then gradually the cloud enclosed her once more.

Mr. Earlie Birdie, who. in an exciting adventure, rescues dainty Miss Pica Rose from a field mouse, while she is gathering moss in a forest near her home. “Gather No Moss” is by far the most interesting story that Mr. A. Rolling Stone has written. No one in the reading world should miss the literary treat it offers. Dorothy VV her ley. THE EARLY BIRD With his knowledge of crime and crime detection. Mr. Nobody Knows has contributed another mystery adventure, highly original and breathless with unusual happenings. Early Bird is the hero, as well as one of the world’s famous detectives. Catches is his assistant. Worm, as we all know, is the famous underworld character. “The Early Bird” is an account of one of the original Big Four of Scotland Yard, and of the methods used in the detection of major crime and famous criminals. This makes a story at once authoritative and rich in dramatic and thrilling episodes. In moralizing. Mr. Nobody Knows wishes to remind us. that although Early Bird catches Worm, the Early Worm gets caught. Catherine Curran. MR. BIRD AND MISS HAND After the extraordinary success of The Early Bird. Mr. Nobody Knows ranks as the most popular of America's short story writers. In this new story he mingles humor with tragedy. Mr. Nobody Knows spares no feeling in his characterizations of such figures as Mr. Bird and Miss Hand, the hero and heroine. While Mr. Worth T wo and his twin brother. Mr. Bush, are minor characters. 69 Catherine Curran. A Crystal Gem Being a little chemist.

There’s never a star but brings to heaven Some silvery radiance tender: There's never a rosy cloud but helps To crown the sunset splendor: There's never a rose in all the world But makes some green spray sweeter. And never a wind in the sky But makes some bird the fleeter: No nightingale but may thrill some heart In its love voicing: God gives us all some sweet way To set the world rejoicing. Muriel Moline. On the Golden Road of Dreams Last night I was a fairy On the Golden Road of Dreams: On the hills I did tarry. Neath the moon’s silvery gleams. I played with roses and blue-bells. I danced with fairy queens: Last night I was in elfin-dells. On the Golden Road of Dreams. I drank the nectar of berries. I was crowned with bright moonbeams: Last night I romped with fairies On the Golden Road of Dreams. Margaret Cussier.. 86 ■4 555- yssvs Silver-Magic The somber night descended And the darkness closed around. The crystal moon had risen O'er the fairies’ magic mound; Their silver-crystal castle Shone dazzling in the light Of the silver-crystal stars That gleamed throughout the night. On rose-hued silver flowers Covered with crystal dew. Sat fairies sipping nectar. All clad in filmy blue: And over them a hazy hue Of scintillating light. Which cast around the soul A spell of strange delight: Above I saw the moon Gaze calmly down at me. As from my eyes I rubbed the dust Of mystic fantasy. Edith LaPray. The Sea The sea. the sea! The blue and free: The waves roll in from the briny deep, And higher up the shores they creep. They grasp the boats with their joyful glee And toss them out on the open sea. The storm comes on. With its crash and roar. And darkens all the heavens o’er: Lightning flashes and thick rain dashes. And through the skies loud thunder crashes. The great waves rolling from the west Bring night and darkness upon the rest. Catherine Barrett. 87 '77x Z)ayesye Natures Cathedral My cathedral is the wooden-glen.

And watch the velvet sky and satiny waters Blend into ebony shades Of trees, on the opposite side of the shore. At night— I like to watch the pearly moon. The celestial shepherdess. Watch over her diamond flocks, the stars, As they twinkle, shine and reflect themselves In the calm, still, mirroring lake. At night— I like to see the lacy clouds roll by That sometimes hide the silvery stars Like a film-curtain of fairy gauze.

The Sophomores bade farewell to their happy vacation days and turned their faces to the unknown future. With happy memories of past days, with a firm courage to brave disaster, with hearts of good friendship, and with visions of hope and promise, they started on their way. The commanders and generals chosen to lead them on their journey were Frances Kelvie. Bernadette Flynn. Ariel Schiebe. and Betty Wood, all tried and true. The road of the Sophomores was rugged and rough, and before they ventured forth into the land of Juniors, they had to pass through Sophomore town to get provisions. From the classrooms and Art Institute that border the streets of the town, they obtained food for thought: and their next stop was made at the cafeteria for a Hallowe en party. The gracious Sisters and teachers gave the travelers a vision of dreams and a goal for which to strive: they advised them to have a Valentine party, and later a skating contest, both of which proved successful. From the warmth of social life at card parties, from entertainments and lectures, the Sophomores learned the joys of companionship, and the delight of working together for a common end. The broad expanse of their endeavor challenged their endurance: but thev dared not stop, lest they be lost, or a storm obstruct their course. The path winds away as far as the eye can see: but they must keep up their courage if they would journey to the end. And. lo! as June draws nigh, they can sight in the near distance the longed-for city of their dreams. Juniors.

So when we started toward the room. He little knew ’twould be his doom; The pupils chased him, one and all. Up the stairs and down the hall.

It seemed that sleep to me did call: And I did answer with a yea. And on my hand my head did lay. 1 slept—and dreamed of many things— Of elves and nymphs and fairy rings: Of people, and of big. brown eyes. And of the white clouds in the skies.

In all history there is no figure more noble and sweet. I choose her as an Ideal, not because she became famous by saving France from the despotic rule of England, but because she followed her vocation, listening only to the will of her Master: and she played her part in life the best she could, forgetting fame and thinking only of her duty. She persevered and trusted in God. cheerfully facing every obstacle for the accomplishment of her mission, until she finally reached Charles Seventh, whose confidence she won. Realizing her responsibility. she abandoned every fear, and beseeching Christ s aid and blessing, she went holdly into battle, and led the troops to victory. Her courage and firmness at her death trial, and her bravery to the end. have impressed many who have recognized her idealism, and have painted, sculptured or written about her sublime life.

Margaret Ellis Cecelia Donovan Agnes Wold Eunice Dickinson President Vice President Secretary Treasurer Freshmen Beginnings Once upon a time, not long ago. some children entered thru' the stately portals of St. Margaret's: they felt very strange at first, but before long they found a kind advisor who showed them where to go. and what was expected of them. These people were known as the Freshmen, and for no obvious reason, were much laughed at. They did not wish to go forth without leaders, so they very wisely chose Margaret Ellis to lead them, assisted by three others— Eunice Dickinson. Agnes Wold, and Cecelia Donovan. 97 They progressed very rapidly under this able band of leaders. They became graceful in all their work under the supervision of their willing teachers. Many of them had dreams of something better in life, and of course they all had ideals. They dreamed of fields of battle already conquered by others, easy victims to their strong troop. Now these Freshmen, as a class feel that within four years all too short, they too shall have their glorious commencement, and that then their ambitions, now but dreams will become realizations. Dorothy Newman. 98 Too Late If I were given one more trial To do my work, and be worthwhile. And see my name on Honor Roll. I'd toil with all my heart and soul: I’d be polite, as all girls should: As for chewing gum. I never would. I’d never enter any class With face rouged up. as many a lass: I’d always wear just plain school clothes. And never be seen with rolled down hose. But alas! I’ve encountered a very sad fate— For all my resolves are just too late. Katharine Simler. At Science As we enter the science class at two. Our talk and chatter we subdue. We take our seats and are very quiet. While Sister tells us not to diet. She tells of the nourishment we need. And what becomes of every seed. Of how and why the wind doth blow. And of everything we wish to know. She asks us questions on the lesson we've had And gives us our mark whether good or bad. She then assigns us five long pages. Which to read we know will take us ages. Then sounds a bell in a nearby hall. It is a most cheery, happy call. With a jump and a run we hurry around And soon we freshmen are homeward bound. Florence Ryan. )9 The Gymnasium Class MISS STARR, our Gymnasium Teacher, is just like a game to us girls. If you happen to pass our Campus some Monday or Wednesday morning, you will see a group of about twenty-five girls, enthusiastically listening to the instructions of their teacher. “Left, right, left, right! Girls, keep time. Now form your teams for deck tennis. These are the lip signals for the most interesting exercises of the school day. We finally choose our teams, amid the chattering of all. and play about two exciting games. Just then, to our regret, the bell rings, and we hurry to our classes, feeling new vigor, after our enjoyable forty-five minutes of beneficial exercise, combined with lots of fun. We cannot imagine that Miss Starr can be excelled by anyone, as a Physical Training Teacher. She is an all-alive teacher, who makes every minute count in a helpful, pleasant way. Her interesting exercises have added much to our gracefulness, and helped to keep a healthy mind in a healthy body. 100 Jane Helivig. 9 A lyesve. 101 All passes. Art alone enduring stays.” A RT has always been closely associated with the Christian Religion. From the Catacombs to the grand Basilicas, it is the glory of the House of God. speaking through painting and statuary, in mute and eloquent simplicity, to the learned and unlearned; depicting in colorful language to the infant and the man. a Beauty ever ancient and ever new. What truer, grander, holier art could we find the world over than in the windows of our own Basilica of Saint Mary? Stained windows, richly dight. Casting a dim religious light. It is fitting that the truest art should be purely spiritual. The inspiration of the artist is the humble Nazarene. and His Mother Immaculate. What an almost infinite variety of inspiration in the life and parables of Christ, as well as in the simplest, yet holiest of motifs, the Mother and the Child! Fake the religious themes from art. and you have but a phantom with no lustre in its eyes. Take the Madonnas from the great Art Galleries, and they will soon cease to attract the pilgrims of the world. Art is truly a heavenly gift, bequeathed to man. and man only. Seraphs share with thee. Knowledge; But Art. O Man is thine alone. How wonderful are the gifts of God to man! To catch on canvas, the glorious tints of dawn, or the passing moods of a human countenance, seems a power almost superhuman. What a joy to the artist is the sight of his own creation! Even the humble productions in this Memory Book have afforded great pleasure to the young artists who produced them. After all. how dull and barren would our Book be without the simple decorations on its pages? We owe much to our helpful, inspiring Teacher. Miss Stephens, for any success that is ours. J. K.

ORCHESTRA Department of Music There is Music in the sighing of a reed; There is Music in the gushing of a rill: There is Music in all things if men had cars: The earth is but the echo of the spheres. —Byron. MUSIC is like a Spirit Immortal speaking a message that makes the world laugh, and weep, and wonder, and worship. It speaks through the birds of the air. the insects of the field, the running brook, the sighing breeze, the foaming wave. It sings the cradle lullabies: it keeps youth dancing on the way to fame: it solemnizes the nuptial vows: it calls the wanderer home: it rescues the soul from the depths: it fills up all the stops of life with tuneful song: it chants the requiem: it stands by the open grave: it whispers a living message from departed ones. It is the breath of God's melodious Beauty, the Whispering Gallery of His Infinite Harmony. 104 tyrsvF Music associates itself with all our activities. We sing to it. we dance to it. we mourn to it. we pray to it from youth to age. But the more we study and understand it. the deeper is the pleasure and appreciation it affords us. Our parents are fully aware of the cultural influence, the benign blessing that music will bring into our lives. Moreover, they duly appreciate the splendid Music Department that Saint Margaret's has built up. The fact that the registration records show a greater number of Seniors and Juniors taking Music the past year, goes to say that the students of Saint Margaret's value music more as their knowledge of it increases. The many activities of the Music Department during this year, have helped greatly to develop a better understanding and appreciation of this Art. In January, we were privileged to hear Miss Emmy Brady, a well known Eastern pianist, in a recital of Piano Music for Young People. ranging from the classics to the ultra-moderns. Miss Brady's program evinced splendid technique, clear insight, and deep musical feeling. We enjoyed, equally, her interesting explanations of the music presented. A series of joint recitals by the Music and Expression Departments were given on Mondays. Thursdays and Saturdays. In the spring, the Junior members gave Haydn's Children's Symphony. The Teacher's Certificate Course recitals were given by Mary Eugenia North, violinist, and Helen Bradkey. Susan De Voy. Mary Meyer, Agnes Keating. Betty Anne Plunkett. Ruth Mayer and Marion Lundstrom. pianists. Individual recitals were given by Helen Crowley, a former member of the school, and Laura Brogan of St. Paul, a post-graduate student of the Music Department. Members of the Dramatic Art classes assisted at these recitals. All these programs of interesting and varied types of composition, were thoroughly enjoyed by large audiences, and showed careful preparation, and an understanding of the essentials of a good musical technique. A program which aroused much interest was the selection of original compositions by members of the Harmony Class. A Music Club was organized by the Senior members of the Music Department, for study and experience in playing in public. Students of the Department took part in several programs given outside the school, among them Mary 105 9%e Z) jyf s T Eugenia North, who played with great success before the Thursday Musical, and Twin City Musical Society. Members of the Certificate Class have secured valuable experience, and at the same time have aided in philanthropic work, by voluntary teaching at the Wells Memorial, and the Margaret Barry Settlement Houses. During the year, the organization of a School Orchestra caused much enthusiasm among the students of both the Academic and Music Departments. Though the orchestra is yet in its infancy, it gives promise of being, in the near future, an inspiring factor in the musical life of the school. The orchestra has been heard during the Spring in interesting all-school programs, given in the study-hall, at which individual members ot the Music and Dramatic Art Departments also appeared. These activities, added to their school duties, have left Saint Margaret’s girls with little leisure. Is it not a blessed thing to use leisure in the cultivation of the fine Arts? If the growing generation had less leisure, or if their leisure were used in some pleasant pursuit, would not this help to stem the tide of the great crime wave which is carrying off a multitude of America's “Teens and Twenties ? “Leisure Time is Crime Time” in this generation. “Back to the Home” should be our slogan, if we wish to save our country. Back to the piano in the parlor” and away from the “sedan at the sidewalk. Back to the grand old soul-music, and away from the jazz, lest we go down in history as the Jazz Generation. Are not many of our young people satisfied with cheap jazz, jazz music, jazz dress, jazz literature, jazz drama, jazz religion? Music is “God's best gift to man: The only art of Heaven given to earth: The only art of earth we take to Heaven.” 106 t fpsyr Z) With this thought in mind, the students of Saint Margaret's shall continue their quest for the Grail in Music, as in all things else: and with this inspiration for the ideal, we dedicate these pages of our “Dayesye to the memory of a place very dear to our hearts— The Music Department or Saint Margaret's Mary Meyer.

Ethel Pet let. 107 A MINUET Department of Dramatic Art Speak the speech. I pray you. As I pronounced it to you. All expression is from within, outward. Shakespeare was convinced of this fact when he put the player’s speech into Hamlet’s mouth. Perhaps, in no department of training is this more true than in that of dramatic art. The two characteristics that attract us to a person are physical appearance and the manner of expression. Of the first. Dame Nature has the major premise, although culture may modify it greatly. T he second may be acquired as a personal and splendid accomplishment. Expression is power—power to communicate to others our emotions of joy. grief, sorrow, pain. pity. All nations, all institutions of learning have recognized the value of this art. and Saint Margaret’s Academy duly appreciates it. Julia Marlowe, in her early career, could not have entered upon a year’s MRS. PAUL CASSERLY 108 7T)( ft ytsye contract with more enthusiasm than did the students of the Dramatic Art Department last September. Realizing that “Earth s noblest thing is a woman perfected. these girls set out to acquire a higher degree of womanly perfection through the training of voice and body, by which, to a great extent, the cultured woman is recognized. Under the able direction of Sister Charitas. head of the Department, and her competent assistants. Mrs. Paul Casserly and Gertrude Krueger, the members of the class participated in numerous activities during the past year, all of which registered splendid GERTRUDE KRUEGER success. All were given ample opportunity to demonstrate their ability for leadership in various public functions, from the Casey Revue, to the leads in parish plays. Members of the Department have been called upon to coach plays, and to present benefit recitals for various city clubs. During the Christmas vacation, the Senior and Junior Departments united their talent for the presentation of “The Desired of All Nations. by George Benson Hewetson. The play drew a large and appreciative audience, and the young players received much praise for their excellent presentation. “A Minuet.” by Louis Parker, and “Overtones were one-act plays presented during mid-winter months. In Spring, graduate recitals were given by the Alumnae members. Gertrude Krueger. Catherine Hoy. and Teresa Laughlin. and also by the Senior class members. Edna Kelly. Elaine Nortz. Betty Ann Plunkett, and Ruth Mayer. They were assisted in these recitals by the students of the Music Department. The Spring Frolic, participated in by all members of the Expression classes, proved one of the great events of the year, and gave evidence of careful training in the technique of play production, as well as in vocal and pantomimic expression. Throughout the year, recitals were given by Music and Dramatic Art Departments, in which the students were heard in interesting interpretations of dramatic stories, pianologues. and platform plays. In April, the members of the Dramatic Club presented two very interesting plays. “The Three Pegs” and “Patsy. They also took part in the public speaking contest. Ruth Mayer and Betty Ann Plunkett were in charge, assisted by other members of the Club. 109 TTx jOayfsvf Eight graduate members are sent forth by the Department this year. They are Mary Halbert. Gertrude Krueger. Catherine Hoy. and Teresa Laughlin. alumnae members, and Elaine Nortz. Edna Kelly. Ruth Mayer, and Betty Ann Plunkett, members of the Senior Academic Class. Saint Margaret's sends them forth with a message significant: a message in keeping with her name and her mission. It is her fond hope that they, as well as the Academic graduates, will reinforce the country-wide agitation over demoralizing influences in spoken and silent drama. We thus hope to speed the time when our theatres will, perforce, respond to the demand of decent. Christian playgoers, for clean and elevating plays, that find their inspiration in the truth and beauty of true romance, rather than in the polluted vaporings of offensive realism. Edna Kelly. ’28. 110 f TO NOBLER band of Christian women are in the field of destiny than Saint Margaret’s Alumnae. In the twenty years of the school’s history it has sent forth over one thousand bright, promising girls in the bloom of youth, with high hopes in their hearts, and holy ideals in their souls. Of this number, only very few have been called to the Great Beyond. The others, one and all. arc bearing the gold and white Banner of Saint Margaret’s in the march of Ideal Christian Womanhood. What a tremendous power for good! That they are doing their part in the quiet walks of life is the joy and consolation of their Alma Mater.

Conditions were seriously studied, and preparations undertaken. It was planned to use the three newly constructed planes, the Spirit of S. M. A., the Spirit of Twenty-Eight, and the Spirit of the Dayesye. Weather conditions proved unfavorable the day of the intended take-off. so the flight was indefinitely postponed until after the thcatening Examination clouds had passed over. The morning planned for the second take-off dawned bright and clear, the planes soared swiftly upward, and were soon lost in the azure blue. Favorable reports were periodically broadcast by the Commander-in-Chicf to eager, waiting fans. After some weeks of anxious waiting, they were reported flying over the Mountains of Cash and Checks, and nearing their destination; the Spirit of S. M. A. in the lead of its fellow planes. Great was the joy of all. when The Spirit of S. M. A. won the race, and a royal fete was prepared for the victorious pilot by her enthusiastic admirers. Maxine Hirtz.
