" I'd wII,-,te it~ ~weetn"iI~ on the d"gert .. "ir The truth of the fo:�egoing stanza stimulated the editor of the Extension Depa:�tment with the � (;esi re to write a few words on some of the mem he:�s of t his de�pnrtment \'1ho are doing work of a particularly commendable nature. .. T he rr,cnch department is led by Mr. Paul Garibaldi. This young man has been pUl�suing the Ro�mance Languages ever since t he. college department was opened. He bids fai r to represent Xavier in this plll"ticular fie ld. The Greek department is headed by i\"lr.Earl White and i\"\iss Rachel ChisseJl. The latter will don the cap and gown in June and go forth to can�y her cJS\ssical l(\J"c into the fields of her endeavor. '. In Latin and philosophy, Miss Ethel Batiste wears the laurels. This young lady and her close I�unning mate, Miss Alice John�son, together with the Misses G. Sel"aphim, D. J ohnson, and Golda Smith, aro typical Xavierites, grad�uates of both the high school and nOl"mal depal�tments of th is insti�tution. They are all engaged in teaching in the various parochial schools of the diocese and we feel su:�c that the pupils undcr their guidance al�C imbibing their lofty, stimulating ideals. The scason of 1928-1929 h~\s witnesses the advent of a group of teachers who have only recently entel�ed the public school system of this city but who have already begun to make u record in the professional world. This group has in its midst the Misses Aline Pepin, Anna Lacaze, Evelina and Folyxene Jean, Hilda and Elvina Armstrong. These yo.ung ladies are specializing in English and doing excellent work in thc fields of the artistic narrative and the English lyric. Miss Evelina Jean has wrillen quite a number of ol�iginal sonnets. Of the teachers longer in service now attending the Xavier Exten�sion Department the names of Miss Addie Snowden and Mrs. Zelma Woods Smith deserve mention. These two ladies arc specializing in French and mathematics, re� spectively. The Science Department has its repre~entfttives-two practical me�chanics and on theoretical one in the persons of Messrs. William Lewis, teuche!� of Manuul Train�ing at Xavier, .Mark Wheeler, teacher of same subject at Hoff�man, and Lawrence A. Young, teacher of playground activities at MR. ROBERT HANSON, who is preparing to take up Medicine at Meharry in the fall. i\'lISS FLAUCY A. IVES, who has majored in Education. degrees will be conferred on the following: MISS ALICE L. PRIESTLEY, who has majored in Education. MISS VALENTINE M. PRUDEAUX, who has majored in English. Thomy Lafon School. These gen�tlemen arc exhibiting rare scien�tific ability in physics. It may be sa fely predicted that they will not stop in the present fields but will attain prominence in this field in the near future. Time or space will not pe.�mit a complete "Who's Who in Xavier," but it may be safely predicted that none of the number now at�tending will "waste their sweet�ness on the desert air." PRIZE ESSAY My Advantages Derived From Bein g a Glee Club Member What advantages have I de�rived from my membership in the Glee Club? Reflecting on the many benefits which might be de�rived, it becomes necessary to dwell upon them along the lines c! mentality ar:d morality. The Glee Club is a well-organ� ized society in which 1 am taught co-operation, initiative and punc� tuality. Co-operation with one another is manifested in the or� derly manner in which OUl� meet� ings are conducted. During our meetings and rehearsals I am often called upon to make de� cisions for myself. thus making me more self-reliant and instill� ing within me a deeper sense of responsibility to myself and others. Punctuality, which is al�ways stressed in our meetings, has taught me to value time as one of the greatest assets to success. This cluo affords an opportunity or possibility o[ developing the natul�al musical talent of every member-and many o[ our mem�bers are very talented. Those of us who are not especially gifted, however, are always made to feel that OUl� best efforts are appreci�ated by OUl� directress as well as by OUI" fellow members. In this way we are encouraged. This ap�preciation of my honest efforts makes me feel grateful [or the pl�ivilege o[ belonging to ~\ club where everyone is given a fair and equal chance fOl" improvement. Spiritually J have derived many advantages from the Glee Club. Good music is naturally uplifting and inspiring, and surely since] aln taught to appreciate good music it will influence me [or the best. 1\10reo\'el", the teachings of our directress do not stop with cur musical education. but they offer splendid ideals worthy of our attainment. In ma ny ways the Glee Club has been influential in the for�mation and improvement of my character. GRACE C I,ARK. http://cdm16948.contentdm.oclc.org/cdm/ref/collection/p16948coll14/id/3317 |
