SCHOLA CANTORUM The Schola Cantorum was organized this year under the auspices of Sister Margaret Perpetua. Its aim is to be able not only to sing Liturgical Music but also to understand it. Meetings are held monthly and the dues collected go to the purchase ot new books, in order to vary the musical programs. With sunny smiles and light feet we tile into the auditorium on Thursday afternoon tor C-lee Club practice. The Hit Parade numbers are popular with us, but when we sing our school songs our voices ring out in clear, distinct tones. Mr. Rustako, our di- rector, will be rewarded on Class Day, when our rendition ot sweet songs will prove that his ettorts have not been in vain,

Charles Bell, They have progressed rapidly for three years and now each has a membership of all the girls and boys in the High School. At the regular meetings scheduled for the first Monday of the month for the boys, and the second Monday of every month for the girls, we enjoy inspiring sermons and participation in instructive quizzes, in which the genEi of the school are rightfully exhibited. As a relaxation for the over-worked minds, games and dancing were provided at the close of the meetings. The many special affairs, parties, dances. sports, etc., all blended together to make these two organizations a success both spiritually and socially, We, its grateful members, wish to offer our sincere thanks for the pleasant hours given us and a wish for their continued success. 79-w 023
