EDITORIAL
Today we are standing on the threshold of the world—a world which will belong to us
tomorrow. As we stare at all this war and destruction and hate, we realize that whatever tl~ie
world of tomorrow is to be is up to us. We have dreams of what our world of tomorrow shou Id
be, and we are going to see it in fact as well as in ideal.
The building of tomorrow’s world is going to take clear thinkers and intelligent workers.
These builders must have been trained to think and act kindly. At the Hall we have received a
background which should make us worthy citizens of tomorrow.
So we are able to step out into any kind of a world and make it our kind of world.
THE EDITOR.

EDITORIAL
No one knows what the future holds for us. One year from now we may be going to
school, putting all our effort and energy into national defense or may be rejoicing over victo ry
and peace Who knows? However, one thing is certain. We can see every graduate doing hi er
part whether it be going to school to insure the future of an enlightened womanhood or run­
ning a bus to make it possible for the men of the nation to take part in the war.
Most of us have gone to St. Helen’s Hall for four years, but even those of us who ha've
been here only a short time know the difference between an egoistic and an altruistic person
and we have all decided that to be the latter is the only way in which we are able to be "as tl~ie
polished corners of the temple”. So, no matter what the future is, and we know it will be* a
good one, we, the graduating class of 1942, will be doing our part.

THE CHAPEL

m
mm

The Chapel together with the ideals it symbolizes is the cornerstone of St. Helen’s Hall.
As the setting for morning worship it is rendered more beautiful by the installation of several
exquisite memorial gifts the mother-of-pearl processional cross, the sanctuary lamps repre­
senting the seven-fold gift of the Holy Spirit, the altar, and the pulpit. The long-desired pipe
organ was presented several years ago in memory of her husband by Mrs. Walter B. Beebe; its
delightful strains are an appropriate remembrance of beloved Sister Katherine Angela, whose
life served to reveal the spirit of music to her associates.

I ■&gt;

The simple beauty of the services which introduce each new day clarifies the purposes for
which our moments are intended, and strengthens our Christian ideals, and as we leave Chapel
to pursue our studies, we are thankful for those few moments of devotion and inspiration.

CLASS 194 2

r

■

The class of 1942 got its actual start in the fall of 1938. Although one of its members is
a Hall girl since the fifth grade and another since the eighth grade, most of the class entered
the Hall in their freshman year. During its sophomore, junior, and even senior years, other
active members have joined the class.

i

:

.

We are, in one sense, just an average class, an average group of girls. We have our
athletes, our scholarly students. We have tall girls, short girls, and just in between girls.
in another sense we are vitally different. We are fortunate in having been given a rich,
background which has prepared us really to step out and meet the world—which we
going to do.

First Prize, Delphic Contest
COURTSHIP OF THE FLOWERS
The winding of the wailing elfin horn
Scarce broke the twilight stillness. How forlorn
The garden lay, shade-haunted, with a mist
Of numbness drifting o’er the unseen tryst
The evening zephyr kept with lovelorn flowers.
The wistful roses sighed, "With us abide.”
For his caresses every blossom vied;
In serpentine embrace the passion vine
Hoped yet the elusive gypsy to entwine.
The blue moon, watching, saw him slowly pass
Across the dipping billows of the grass,
And, hovering, leave the fainting willow weeping
Sad tears into the stream as downward creeping
Past thyme, past perfumed daphne, primrose, tulips,
The drowsy night-wind kissed with languid lips
The wild windflower; upon her fluttering breast
He nestled, murmuring, and sank to rest.

Delphic Contest, Honorable Mention
SMELLS
What would you do without your nose? Are you conscious of its real value? Certainly
the world would be much less interesting if we were deprived of our sense of smell!
In our gardens we would miss the fragrance of violets and primroses; a field of clover
drenched in early morning dew; the heavy scent of roses and honeysuckle borne on a light
breeze at the end of a long, hot, summer day; the pleasant grassy smell after the lawn has been
mowed; and fruit lying under bare trees and slowly rotting in the mellow autumn sunshine.
No longer would we know the sticky, suffocating air that precedes a thunderstorm, or, in
contrast, the cool freshness of rain falling on a dusty road. Without the sharp tang of salt air,
the seashore would lose that invigorating quality which gives us such appetites. How we would
miss the fragrance of deep woods, where moss and ferns and other kinds of vegetation flourish
in the rich, damp soil; sweet hay piled high in a dusty barn; and smoke of burning autumn
leaves!
Shoe polish and camphor balls, musty clothes and books, new magazines and newspapers,
hospitals and gasoline stations, tobacco and whiskey, freshly painted houses and newly cut
lumber are all things that would lose much of their meaning if we could not recognize them by
their respective smells.
And as for food, who would care to part with the appetizing fragrance of a warm loaf of
bread, fresh from the oven; a thick juicy steak, sputtering and browning in the hot grease of a
frying pan; wild strawberries, growing sweet and warm and juicy in the sunshine; and better
than them all, to me, the rank odor of moldy, aged cheese!
Surely none of the odd shapes, colors, and sizes of noses can outweigh their merits.
—BETSY PARKER, IV.

Remember?
One flash of lightning
That glorified mid-night skies,
The stag
That hesitated in the brush
And then plunged madly on
Across the road,
The bronzed farmer
Harvesting
His ocean grain
Under blue skies.
The giant rush of wind
Sweeping through pine trees.
Too precious to be handled
Save with wonder
Are these miracles of God.
—PATRICIA MANN, V.

SIMPLE OBSERVATIONS
With my mind a complete blank as to drama, melodrama, pathos, or comedy in my life, 1
think I shall attempt a few observations on human nature which have come to my mind lately.
Though I certainly can’t approach our friends, Charles Lamb or William Thackeray, 1 can note
in my own simple way a few of the peculiarities toward which the human mind is inclined to
run, if my mind can be counted as any sort of a normal example.
Betty Exx, whom we shall use experimentally, is a friend of mine I don’t know her par­
ticularly well but, outside of a few annoying features, I like her. But suppose we put Betty
Exx on the basketball team, pitted against sworn enemies. Let me see her valiantly fighting to
maintain the honor of the school, and oh, how near and dear she becomes to me; her faults
arc all forgotten; a feeling of love and tenderness surges over me for my Betty.
Here, again, we have Betty, the particular friend of a friend of mine. The last mentioned
friend and I are having a tug of war over a certain boy. The situation is delicate, and I am
struggling hard to maintain a level-headed attitude about the whole thing. My feeling toward
Betty under such circumstances is far from friendly All her faults are many times enlarged and
I detect a sneer in her every gesture.
Betty and I run against each other in an election. She is immediately a stranger to me, and
a polite sort of enemy. I must be careful and match strategy to strategy.
Betty and I are given an assignment to do together, and right away we are inseparable
chums. I’m not blinded to her faults, but she’s a swell kid and we have a lot in common.
So it goes, one feeling replacing another, not because of anything Betty has done, but only
because of the immediate circumstances surrounding her. Naturally, 1 do not announce these
feelings toward Betty to the world at large. They come and go in my mind, as in the minds of
other people. I try to combat them with fairness and common sense.

In your last letter, you asked me just what this thing called war is. It seems strange, when
you are fighting on the battlefields of the world, to realize that there is still a great continent of
people who can’t realize, except through appalling visions of horror, what war is Yet when I
stop to think about it, I realize there are many such as you.

E

At home, you see a side of war that is made up of little things, things that people are
gradually learning to do automatically, that they won’t talk about much after they have gotten
used to them. It was that sudden feeling of terror that seized you on a certain calm Sunday
morning, a feeling soon replaced by one of calm, dogged determination It is an even greater
sense of pride when you sec the flag, the determination to learn the words to the "Star Spangled
Banner,” and the extra effort to reach those high notes. You buy defense stamps now instead
of another coke, and you are surprised when you don’t miss it at all.

E

I think that, to most of you at home, war is stopping to think. No longer do you dash to
the car for every trip downtown, and you think twice before you put that second spoonful of
sugar into your coffee. You do your rather insignificant jobs better now, making sure that no
one has to take important time to help you, and you envy the soldiers and sailors and pilots,
saying that you wish you could do something really to help, too. You don’t realize that every
time you do one of your little jobs well, you make it easier for the defense workers and the
fighting men who are doing the big things to help you.
You see, you are in the war just as much as we are, even if it doesn’t seem that way to you.
Something Benjamin Franklin said during the Revolutionary days illustrates it perfectly. He
said, "We must all hang together, or we will all hang separately.” His words are just as good
today, and they tell the secret of winning this war better than I could ever do.
War for you is being prepared. You know that if the United States is bombed, organiza­
tions will noiselessly and efficiently spring into action to protect you You think that they will
never have to operate, and you are secure in the knowledge that they are ready. I hope that this
knowledge and the simple duties you are now performing will be all that you ever see of it.
For us who are fighting, war is something quite different. It is knowing that the whole
outcome may depend on us, knowing that we are the tools with which a nation must make its
stand for freedom. It is sleeping in readiness to rush into battle at any time, fighting for hours
on end not knowing we arc tired, only to fall exhausted into rest when the fight is through.
It’s hell on earth, killing and being killed, knowing that we may not live, knowing that the war
will go on and on until it is won, no matter how many give their lives.
For the United States as a nation, this war is a job that must be done. Dictatorship is an
insidious disease that has seized the world, a plague that we must destroy forever. We are in
the right, and we will win.

5
I

i
1
.

The time for words is past, and the hour of fighting is here, but time will come again
when words will accomplish much. In the years to come, we must lead the people of the world
into the ways of democracy. While you must loathe all that the dictatorships stand for, son, you
must not hate their people In the future, we will guide the rest of the world to democracy
only if we do not hate, for those who hate destroy themselves.
Your loving father.

The Side-Yard Swing has stood a lot of treatment in the past six years, where it stands
during the three summer months surrounded by beautiful flower beds and a white picket fence.
The grass is worn bare where many feet have scuffed it clean. The bright, green, steel bars have
rusted where the summer rains have hit. The springs sag toward the ground where a group of
six persons have climbed on. The pretty, striped material has faded from the hot sun, and as it
lazily swings in the breeze the whole body squeaks.
The old swing could tell many tales of romance that bloomed upon its faded seat, out
under the starry night; of the many out-door meals eaten beneath the shade of the battered
awning; how rhe baby is placed there to rock in the warm, summer evenings; and how, when
a gang of husky boys pile in, it takes a deep breath and sinks lower, getting weaker and
squeakier.
Now that the month of June has rolled around again, the old swing has been moved to
new ground, where the grass has grown thick. It has been re-covered; the steel bars have been
painted deep green; and the saggy springs have been uplifted.
The shiny swing is ready to begin, all over, another six years of wear and tear under the
strain of weather and people.

The depot was unusually crowded Sunday afternoon. Swarms of people came from aLl
directions. It was interesting to watch the different expressions on the faces of those gathered
in the waiting room some were excited and confused, bustling around with baggage, not
knowing quite what they were doing; others were mixed with sadness and anxiety; some were
even blank, showing no emotions.
A voice through the microphone called out, "All selectees please collect in the roped
section at the south end of the depot." After the men had gathered there and the roll was
called, I noticed a little boy sitting on a bench near the door leading to the tracks. He must
have had a big brother or father who was going into the army; for there he sat, his little chin
quivering, his small fists clinched with all his miniature strength. The tears crept timorously
over his eyelashes and rolled haltingly down his cheek bones. A stray dog who had been run­
ning about the depot searching for his master, jumped up and placed his shaggy paws on the
boy’s lap and began to lick his face. The child instinctively threw his arms around the dog's
neck, and before long the lad had gained courage and self-assurance through his new friend.

ADVENTURE IN COMPASSION
I long for the loneliness of the night, for its feeling of unshared privileges.
Mountains arc the softly velvet fur of a kitten’s paw.
Distant fields of grain are haunted silver rippling in the wind as the bold moon sends out its
living light.
Street lights wink at me like the flirting of naughty elves
And the air is as immovable as a vacuum’s dead breath.
Comes the dawn, bringing with it the emptiness of life,
Houses are drab and morbid, unchanging day after day,
The homely scarred face of the hunchback mountains reminds me of the monotonous stare of
the sun

£

And people stir as if to torment my soul and mock me in my agony
Are there others who live by night to die in the day?
—PATTY WATERS, V.

THE TEST OP OUR SOLDIER BOYS
The test of our boys in the fight they make
Is the grit that they daily show;
The way they stand on their feet and take
Fate’s every' hardship and blow.
A coward can smile when there’s naught to fear,
When nothing his progress bars,
But it takes our boys to stand up and cheer
While others follow the stars.
It will be the victory after all
From the fight that our boys make,
Our boys, who when driven against the wall,
Will stand erect and take
The hardships of fate, with their heads held high,
Weary, bruised, and pale,
It will be these boys who will win bye and bye
For they aren’t afraid they’ll fail.
It’s the bumps they get and the jolts they get
And the awful shocks their courage stands.
The tiring hours of sorrow and vain regret,
The prize that often escapes their hands,
That tests their mettle and proves their worth.
It isn’t the blows they deal,
But the blows they take on our good old earth.
That shows that their stuff is real.

VICTORY GARDEN
Why don’t we start a victory garden?
Why don’t we do it today?
Come along, bring a hoe, a spade
There’s no time to delay.
We may not like the feel of the earth,
Nor the scorching sun above
But it’s better to handle the sod
Than to lose the freedom we love.

SPRING

The

violets in the woods, so still—
cherry trees budding out anew,
jonquils blooming on the hill,
hyacinths glistening with dew.

Gay tulips nodding in the breeze,
Merry crocuses in brilliant yellow,
Brightly green against the tree:
All under the sunlight mellow.
—ELIZABETH STRUBLE, Eighth Grade

LEAVES
The leaves are falling fast and thick
Like snow upon the ground;
To gather on the thick clad street;
Only to be caught again
By the merry gust of wind;
To dance in the tree tops
And do merry flip flops
And then to be caught in the wind.
The tree is now bare
With no leaves in her hair
Oh, but come and be merry
No longer be dreary
And dance with the leaves in the wind.
Oh, envy the leaves in the wind.

One day I went out to play;
It was a very bright day in May.
I wanted to play with girls and boys,
Bring all my nice playthings and toys.
Suddenly it began to rain;
The water trickled down the main.
I ran to put on my rubber coat;
I brought out my new red sail boat.

CHARMIAN KOLAR

LILLIAN JOHNSON

STUDENT BODY
The Associated Student Body of St Helen’s Hall entered its ninth year with the begin­
ning of school last fall. Charmian Kolar was elected president, and under her leadership a
successful term was completed. Other officers for the fall term were Gretchen Nicolai, vicepresident; Theodora Nicolai, treasurer; Susan Alton, secretary; Harriet French and Nadine
Honevman, proctors In February Lillian Johnson capably succeeded Charmian as president,
and her officers were Beatrice King, vice-president; Betty Peetz, treasurer; Jane Norwood,
secretary; Betty Bussey and Jane Bycrly, proctors.
Student government is an outstanding feature at the Hall. The cabinet is a representative
group of students who meet to discuss any problems which concern the government. It is also
the cabinet’s privilege to nominate girls for student body offices at the start of each semester.
This group is comprised of a representative from each class, the vice-presidents of the junior
and senior classes, student body officers, and the editor of the Halltonian.
For the fall term the cabinet members were Lillian Johnson, Alta June Myles, Gloria
Grenfell, Melba Heyser, Patricia Waters, Betty Peetz, Geraldine Stout (Editor of the Halltoman), and the student body officers. In the spring the cabinet consisted of Natalie Holman,
Sylvia Thomas, Betsy Parker, Yolanda Schultz, Nada Skidmore (Editor of the Halltonian), and
the officers.
The court, which is a disciplinary body, was comprised each term of the junior and senior
members of the cabinet.
This year the student body members were all united in their desire to spend as much time
and effort as possible on charity work. An extensive and enthusiastic Community Chest drive
was held in the fall; both Red Cross drives received support from every student and the yearly
projects to give to the needy at Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Lent were carried through by
many generous donations.
A driving school under the direction of the Department of State was organized in the
spring. Fifteen girls received instruction in this course.
School spirit always finds an outlet in sports. The student body chose Jean and Joan Irwin
to be the Hall’s cheer leaders for the basketball games.
Regular business meetings were held often, and at several assemblies students were privi­
leged to have guest speakers. Among them were Mrs. Lamar Tooze on the Community Chest
drive, a representative from Mills College who presented motion pictures of the school, Miss
Ann Reed Burns on Mexico, and the director of the Portland Art Museum Motion pictures
were shown at different assemblies of the lumber industry, Portland’s city government, the
control of incendiary bombs, and emergency first aid.
As the school year draws to a close, the Hall students can review each of their many
activities, and know that they have accomplished much and continued the progress made in
each succeeding year since the Associated Student Body was organized.

THE BOARDING DEPARTMENT
Outnumbered as they are by the worthy day dodgers, the boarding department constitutes
a vital part of St. Helen's Hall
This year has proved to be a particularly successful one in girls—their friendliness and
their attitude. The number of high school boarders varied at different times during the year
but averaged about twenty-two girls
About the first step the boarders took was to elect their officers. With President Harriet
French, Vice-President Patty Waters and Secretary Sylvia Thomas, the boarders had an organi­
zation and proceeded to make use of it.
October 31, 1941—Hallowe’en was the date of the annual Hill dance to which all were
invited and at which all had a grand time.
November 10, 1941—The boarders gave a successful dance of their own, with a patriotic
Armistice Day theme.
November 29, 1941—The birthday of Jane McMullen, member from Alaska, was cele­
brated by a big cake, given her by the boarders to show her that birthdays at school can be
just as good as they are at home.
Jn that same month, they took on themselves the project of making and filling two sea­
man’s bags for the Seamen’s Institute.
December 6, 1941—The boarders gave gardenia corsages to two of their members who
had roles in the Senior Class Play.
December 17, 1941—The annual Christmas Mystery play was presented with a "guest
supper” beforehand.
January 30, 1942—The boarders entertained with another dance
"Knit for the Red Cross” was the theme in the boarding department, as elsewhere In
fact, Sister’s weekly singing classes were temporarily turned over to knitting.
Jn the second week of May, the boarders held their final and most important dance, the
boarders’ big informal.
Throughout the school year, various groups of the girls attended concerts, plays and
lectures.
These activities were entered into whole-heartedly by the girls, who, by their willingness
to help and to be friends, made the 1941-42 group an A-l boarding department

A good school paper is a mirror of student activities, and that is the goal which the
Halltonian, bi-weekly publication of the Hall, has endeavored to reach this year. The Halltoniati’s earnest and hard-working staff is composed of members of the Journalism Club, who
are advised by Mrs. Swanson.
A senior is editor of the paper during the fall term, and she is succeeded in the spring by
a junior. Geraldine Stout was the capable editor for the 1941 fall term, and Nada Skidmore
took over the editorial duties during the second semester.
In the publishing of the paper there is room for a great variety of talents. Students who
are interested in developing journalistic style gain practical experience, and typists, mimeo­
graph operators, and artists learn to work together to publish an accurate and attractive edition
ever)' two weeks. In the fall Barbara Benson and Theodora Nicolai carried out the duties of
Business Manager and Art Editor, respectively, and in the spring Jane Norwood was the
Assistant Editor; Jerrilee Lovejoy, Art Editor; and Gloria Jokstad, Business Manager.
On the theory that "names make news” the paper has specialized in printing as many
newsworthy articles as possible concerning the students. This has helped to make the Hall­
tonian an anticipated feature. "Is the Halltonian out today?” is a familiar byword in the halls
each Friday afternoon.

RED CROSS

.

r •

*

ig ~ ^lie 0)etpliic

This year the Red Cross in the school has been unusually active, under the leadership of
the four Red Cross Council members and the six class representatives. The council members
from the Hall, Jane Norwood, Beatrice King, Arlene Van Duyn, and Jane McMullen, are
present at one meeting a month of the Portland Junior Red Cross Council, made up of four
representatives from each school.
The work of the Red Cross in the school is probably familiar to all the students, since
everyone is taking part One club period a week is devoted to Red Cross work in which afghan
squares, bootees and caps, sweaters, helmets, and art notebooks are being made The ensemble
and the Tunesters spend this period in practice, and are ready to help entertain the patients in
the hospitals. This year two programs were presented at the Tuberculosis Hospital by these
groups.
Recognizing the greater need of active Red Cross work, the council in the school is con­
tinually looking for more possible programs, and plans for a greater program next year are
already going forward.

Prizes are given for the most original and clever costumes, which are homemade.
After the initiation procedures are ended, Sister Superior serves refreshments which are
a fitting climax to a memorable event.

FACULTY RECEPTION
This social event is for the purpose of bringing the parents and friends of the Hall closer
to the faculty. The Juniors and Seniors in lovely formats act as hostesses in the school
auditorium

JUNIOR CARNIVAL
Spring always brings the "Junior Carnival”. On April 25, the Junior Class waved its magic
wand, and the Hall auditorium willingly obliged by changing into the scene of a South
American Fiesta. Dancing, booths, refreshments, and a mystic fortune-teller added to the
bewitchment The Juniors insisted that it was all done by magic, but the evidences of hard
work and careful planning were found everywhere throughout the evening.

SALE OF DEFENSE STAMPS

Because the Hall girls realize how necessary it is to buy defense stamps, each girl has
voluntarily pledged to give a certain percentage of her spending money toward this cause.
Collecting defense stamps is almost a hobby with them, and while it is fun to see how fast
your booklet can grow, it also gives the girls responsibility and the satisfaction of knowing that

Jane Anderson, Queen Theodora Nicolai, Mistress of Ceremonies Sylvia Thomas, Princesses Marilynn
Adair, Charmian Kolar, Betty Peetz.

MAY FETE
The traditional May Fete climaxes the school year The annual affair is ruled over by a
queen and her royal court, elected from the Senior Class by the student body.
The ruler of festivities this year was lovely Theodora Nicolai. Her court consisted of six
pretty princesses; Barbara Benson, Betty Bussey, Betty Peetz, Charmian Kolar, Marilynn Adair,
and Harriet Knapp.
Assisting Queen Theodora as Mistress of Ceremonies was Sylvia Thomas from the Junior
Class.
The Queen presided over her royal court, and after ceremonies were completed, the new
girls entertained the old girls with supper and amusement. Queen "Teddy” then abdicated
her throne and reluctantly the court dispersed.

CLUBS
Because the Hall girls like to express their talents in different ways, elective clubs have
been formed. These clubs give each student the opportunity to learn and practice the subject
in which she is interested. The various clubs are as follows:
DRAMA CLUB—In this club the girls are taught the fundamentals of acting and speech work,
and apply this knowledge in school programs for the Student Body and also for patients
at the Tuberculosis Hospital. The school has been granted a chapter of Thespians, national
honorary drama society, and girls who are qualified are invited to join Miss Tomme
Nell Jackson advises this club.
MODELING CLUB—Under the direction of Miss Veatch this club attracts many students who
are interested in creative work. They are expertly taught the correct way to use clay, and
they show their own ability and initiative in designing. After an object is finished, it
goes to the kiln to be professionally baked and glazed.
SEWING CLUB—This club is advised by Mrs. Goff and is very popular with both amateur
and experienced seamstresses. Besides making useful garments and toys, the girls enjoy
sewing for the Red Cross.

JOURNALISM CLUB—This club is directed by Mrs. Swanson and gives the students a chance
to do creative writing. The girls in this club also publish the school paper. The Halltovian.
Each member has a different department on which to report, and in this way she gains
valuable experience and responsibility that will help her in later life.

SKI CLUB
The most active club during the school year was the Ski Club. A membership of approximately twenty girls was included in the club. This group numbered seniors, juniors, sopho­
mores and freshmen.
Under the leadership of Betty Bussey the group chartered a bus every two weeks, and a
two-hour lesson was given at Timberline by Mr. Martin Fopp, of the Timberline Ski School.
Many remarkable tans were acquired by the end of the season.
Two chaperones accompany the group on their trip and at the end of an exciting, strenuous day a dinner is given at some member’s home.

There is a wonderful game room, a comfortable living room and fireplace, but the most

              <text>This is an OES yearbook from 1942. The yearbooks were published annually after 1925. Yearbooks from 1921-1968 were known as The Delphic and were created by St. Helen's Hall students attending in their high school years. St. Helen's Hall was an all-girls school that pre-dated Oregon Episcopal School. In 1969, the yearbook evolved into The Legend-Delphic with the addition of Bishop Dagwell Hall and male student attendees. After 1986 the yearbook branding begins to singularly list "OES" with a few volumes referencing "The Delphic" or "The Legend Delphic". Yearbooks helped to chronicle the school year's events and activities, in addition to listing each student and staff member.</text>
