D., and opened September, 1869, with Miss Mary B. Rodney as Principal. The ground upon which the school was first built was secured through the liberality of Mr. John D. Wolfe and his daughter, Miss Cathcrine Wolfe, of New York City, whose large hearted generosity should ever be remembered in recalling the early history of this institution. The school continued its work in the original building on Fourth Street, between Madison and Jefferson, until the year 1890, when the property was sold to the City of Portland, for the use of the City Hall. On the 9th of June of that year, the corner stone of the present large and commodious building was laid, and on the 24th of February, 1891, the school was moved to its new home. Miss Mary Rodney died April 15th, 1896, and the work was carried on by her sisters the Misses Rodney until the close of the school year. At the opening of the next year, Miss Eleanor Tebbetts, Ph. D., became principal and re­ mained in that office till the end of June, 1904. By request of the Board of Trustees, the Sisters of St. John Baptist (founded at Clewer, England, in 1851, and affiliated in this country in 1881) then undertook the charge of the school and trust that God will continue to bless their endeavors for its prosperity and increased usefulness. �; ■ \\ GDffirers mb HmtruttavB 1013-1914 * i The Right Reverend Charles Scaddino, D.

This means not only the cultivation of the intellect and the acquire­ ment of graceful womanly accomplishments but also such moral and religious training as shall help the pupils to be­ come pure, true women, with a high positive standard of Christian living. No school could have a more beautiful location. The building, a handsome brick structure, is on a height over­ looking the city, and surrounded by lines of soft blue hills broken by the snowy peaks of Mt. Hood and Mt. St. Helens and the distant white crest of the Cascades. It is thorough­ ly heated by hot water circulation, and well ventilated. There are two stairways from the third floor, and fire es­ capes. The Chief of the Portland Fire Department has the supervision of all the provisions for safety in case of fire, and inspects the fire escapes from time to time. The plumbing is under the care of one of the best sanitary plumbers in the city. The interior administration of the school has been en­ trusted to the Sisters of St. John Baptist, who have the general superintendence of every department. In secular studies they are assisted by a staff of efficient instructors, either college graduates or especially trained for their work. A daily record is kept of the attendance, scholarship and deportment of every pupil, and a report of the same is mailed to parents quarterly. �I 8 ST. HELEN'S HALL Pupils failing, after a fair trial, to attain the required standard of scholarship or deportment, will not be retained in the school. The Sister Superior will always be glad to receive visits from the parents of pupils. '* : ? The school consists of three departments—Elrmrntary. Arahrmir mtb (Sullrijtatc; and the special departments of Music, Art and Elocution. The £lrmrutanj Srpurtinrut is divided into seven class­ es covering in English and Arithmetic the same ground as the Elementary public school but including a broader range of subjects. The Araformir department covers five years and is divided into two courses, the College Preparatory Course and the General Course. The College Preparatory Course is so arranged as to meet the requirements of the leading Eastern colleges without undue pressure. The General Course is intended for pupils desiring to lay the foundation of a broad general education, and meets the requirements of those universities and colleges which do not require four years’ preparatory work in Latin. In it the time, which in the College Preparatory Course is neces­ sarily spent in Latin, is devoted to Literature, History and Modern Languages. Much of the work is common to both courses, and the standard of thoroughness is the same. The certificate of St. Helen’s Hall is accepted instead of entrance examinations at Wellesley and Vassar Col­ leges, also at the State Universities of Oregon and Wash­ ington. Music, Art and Elocution count as regular elective studies in the General Course. Either Course satisfactorily completed entitles a pupil to the diploma of the school. v* » : I k: \ ■ �ST. HELEN'S HALL 9 In both courses twenty credits are required for gradu­ ation, each credit representing a year’s work of five recita­ tions a week. Twenty recitations a week are required of all pupils not studying Music or Art, fifteen recitations a week are required of Music and Art pupils. (Eullrgiate Srjiartnmit. St. Helen’s Hall offers two years’ advanced work in languages, Mathematics, History and Literature, equiva­ lent to the work of the first two years in college. At the completion of a two years’ course of collegiate work, amounting to nine credits, a certificate will be given. Jaujliaf). The aim in this course is to give pupils thorough in­ struction in English Grammar and Rhetoric, to enable them to write with ease and accuracy, and to teach them to appreciate what is best in English Literature. From the lowest class the reading matter is carefully selected, and in the third year of the Academic Course a brief history of English Literature is studied. After this the work consists chiefly in the writing of compositions and the criti­ cal study of English masterpieces, especially those required for College entrance examinations. Especial effort is made to form a taste for good literature, and courses of reading are planned for the summer vacation. 3Fmufj attb ffertnan. In these courses the aim is to enable the pupil to read the languages at sight and speak and write them easily. In order to acquire a good pronunciation the study of French should be begun in the Elementary Department, the lessons at first being in the form of conversation and easy �io ST. HELEN'S HALL reading. Afterward grammar and translation are begun. In the last year of the Course, French composition, History and Literature are studied, and French is the language of the class room. In the case of resident pupils the French talks offer additional opportunities for conversation. : I ! German may be begun in the first or second year of the Academic Course and carried to the point required for admission to college or beyond it as may be desired, Attention is paid to pronunciation, conversation and sight reading, as well as to grammar and translation, and German songs and plays are studied. Satin anil fimk "Latin and Greek are not regarded as dead languages except in the sense that all language of books not in our era is dead. They are living in the sense that the English of Chaucer and the Italian of Dante are alive, dead only to those to whom for lack of knowledge they are sealed books.’' (Cambridge School Manual.) v A five years’ course of Latin is provided, including beside the usual college requirements of Caesar, Cicero, Virgil, Ovid and prose composition, a fifth year for Sallust and sight-reading. By beginning Latin early in the course the sense of hurry and strain is avoided and there is time enough to make the study interesting and delightful as all true intellectual work ought to be. i The course in Greek covers three years; the previous work in Latin having prepared the pupil for its intelligent The first year is given to grammar and exercises, study. the second to Xenophon, the third to Homer. It is desir­ able though not essential, that pupils preparing for college should elect Greek as their third language. ! 1 ’ �ST. HELEN’S HALL I I Sjuitnrxj The study of History is begun in the Elementary De­ partment and continued to the end of the school course. In the College Preparatory Course it is necessarily limited to college requirements, which, however, are constantly in­ creasing both as to quantity and quality. In the General Course three courses of History are provided. The topical method is approved, collateral reading is encouraged. Maps are drawn, and historical geography is held to be an important part of the work. History and English are in­ timately associated; pupils being required to commit to memory historical poems, and to write compositions on sub­ jects drawn from historical lessons. The school is fortunate in possessing a fairly good though small library of history and literature bearing upon it. iHatijnnatirfl “In teaching mathematics the aim is to develop the spirit of enquiry, the habit of accuracy in reasoning, and the love of truth.” (Cambridge School Manual.) The prescribed course comprises Arithmetic, Algebra, Plane and Solid Geometry. Throughout the course original work is encouraged, and set rules are avoided. The pupils are encouraged to rely as little as possible upon text books. Srurnr? This department is conducted in accordance with the best scientific methods. Natural History is taught in connection with Geography in the Elementary De­ partment. In the Academic Department the subjects are taken up as indicated in the course of study. Lab­ oratory work is required of all students of Chemistry and Physics, and the use of the microscope of all �m : i 12 h; »j ( ii I ST. HELEN'S HALL students of Botany and Physiology. It is considered that one or two sciences each thoroughly studied for not less than one year will do more for .the pupil’s intellectual develop­ ment than a large amount of superficial work. In 1913-14 a course in Domestic Science including Hygiene, Household Sanitation and Chemistry of Foods will be offered. ■(Pljyfliral (Culture i St. Helen’s Hall has a large gymnasium, and a trained teacher is in charge of the gymnasium work. In the Elementary Department there are easy drills several times in the week. In the Academic department each class has two morning periods a week for light work such as marching, club swinging, folk dances, etc., and every pu­ pil is required to be in one afternoon class for either aes­ thetic dancing or games. An exhibition to which the par­ ents and other friends are invited, is held every spring, at the conclusion of the year’s work. : Srltyimte dluHtrudtmt All pupils receive instruction in Holy Scripture, Church Catechism and the History of the Church, and attend the daily services in the Chapel of the School. Resident pupils attend service on Sunday morning in one of the city churches. In 1913-14 a special advanced course in preparation for Church work will be offered. i §p?rial fttuitents Special students in Music, Art or Elocution may be re­ ceived as resident, when there is room for them, but the preference will be given to pupils in the regular course. No one will be received as a special student without having first completed a high school course of study or its equiva­ lent. The terms for special students are the same as for regular students. : ' �ST. HELEN’S HALL 13 (Emirs? nf Iclnurutary Bryartmcut FIRST YEAR. English.

A riding school near by fur­ nishes horses and groom at a moderate charge for small riding parties. The resident teachers co-operate with the Sisters to make home life attractive and helpful. One eve­ ning in each fortnight is given to lectures, musicales and social gatherings in the reception room. Dancing, indoor games and all girlish amusements are encouraged. A short list of correspondents and visitors is required signed by parent or guardian. Letters addressed to others than those on the list will be forwarded unopened to parents or guardians. i. No bills will be paid for pupils nor money advanced to them unless, a deposit has been made for that purpose and pupils are not allowed to have running accounts at any store in the city. A monthly allowance is recommended as tending to give a young girl a proper sense of the value of money and responsibility in the use of it. ' i During the term no pupil will be allowed to pass a night in town out of the school building except with her parents or near relatives. Pupils may not visit anywhere without the written consent of parents or guardians. They may l. ' ■ ■ I ' �i: 26 f j i! } i!: ,t ,. Jlfi IN, ! ! 1-; =! j.j; !!:!• I ST.

Strangers must bring a letter of introduction from parents or guardian. Visitors may not ascend the stairs without permission. The pupils will be allowed to visit on Saturday those friends in the city whom the parents may designate, pro­ vided those friends accompany them to and from the school, and the conduct of the pupil has been so satisfactory that they are entitled to the privilege. Pupils residing in Port­ land or its immediate vicinity will be allowed once in each month to spend Saturday and Sunday at home. Magazines and telegrams will not be delivered unless approved. Newspapers are not allowed. It is requested that no books be 'brought into the school. All textbooks are provided, and there is sufficient reading matter in the School Library. Family photographs and a few framed pictures are allowed in the pupils’ rooms, but not posters or advertise­ ments. It is desired that all bedroom decorations be simple hygienic. Pupils are expected to dress neatly and simply. A plain skirt with blouse waist for school, a cloth suit for Sunday and street wear, an afternoon dress of some light woolen or mixed material and a white muslin dress (highnecked and long sleeved) for musicals will meet all require­ ments. Neither dresses nor waists of laundered goods are allowed from November 1 to April 1, nor dresses of wash material for the school room at any time. High shoes with low heels are required for outdoor wear. Expensive jew­ elry is not allowed. All school dresses must be high-necked and long sleeved.

Requests from parents and all business communications should be sent directly to the Sister Superior and not through the pupil. The number of resident pupils is limited to fifty. The intention is to have the school family consist of earnest girls who will cheerfully adapt themselves to such regula­ tions as are found necessary. No pupil who shows herself impatient of control, or whose general tone and influence is harmful, can be permitted to remain in the Hall. j If . jL m �' t i ■ \ . 2S ST.
