Earnest" which is entirely the WORK

Hold Candlelight Service.
One of the features of the school
is its weekly candlelight religious
service. This invariably attracts a
large attendance from the student
body.
Always of interest is the girls art
exhibit which is attractively dis
played along the wall of the front
corridors and in the dining hall.
The spacious building that houses
the National Cathedral School was
the gift of Phoebe Apperson Hearst
the mother of William Randolph
Hearst.
One of the tenets of Miss Turner's
educational philosophy is that
teachers must allocate time from
their classrooms for those things
which refresh body and spirit. She
has entered fully into the civic and
educational life of this community
This year she is serving as the sec
ond vice president of the American
Association of University Women,
where she long has been a member
OF many important committees.
Fond of walking, she usually
takes a brisk daily hike near the
Cathedral. Greatly interested in
music, there is nothing she enjoys
more than relaxing at her piano.
Born in Jersey City Heights, Miss
Turner holds an A. B. degree from
Mount Holyoke and an M. A. from
Columbia. She also has done adj
vanced specialized study in her
chosen field of secondary education

Gator, whose school for boarding
and day pupils is entering it's 45th
year OF service. It's enrolment in
cludes both the daughters and
granddaughter of its early alumnae.
Unless we can put into our cur
rlculums as much enthusiasm for
the world of tomorrow, as many
of our young people have put into
the war effort on their own &C
count. we shall have lost shining
opportunities" she said.
High school girls and boys are
far more serious than they have
been, and are truly interested in
helping to meet and solve the grave
problems which are confronting the
world, Miss Turner believes.
Travelled in Europe.
She has an exceptional back
ground for Interpreting postwar
problems. From her teaching posi-
ton in the Barnard School of New
York she was sent overseas after the
World War as one of the American
secondary school experts to help
develop educational and health
programs for the young girls of
Central Europe, particularly in
Czechoslovakia. On her return, she
specialized in research work among
the foreign-born in this country
before she again resumed the teach
ing of high school age students.
While she believes the province
of the secondary school is pri-
marily to develop the JOY which
comes from intellectual pursuits,
to set up standards of accuracy
in thinking, and to develop good
study habits, she also considers
school activities an essential part of
the educative process.
School activities at the National
Cathedral School for Girls are so
planned that every student partic-
ipates as a definite part of the
school curriculum. While they are
conducted under faculty supervision,
they are initiated and operated by
the students. There also is = rro-
gram of health instruction. dealing
with fundamental health knowledge
and health practices.
Miss Turner points out that 96
per cent of the schools graduates
either go to college or into advanced
fields of specialized study During
the war years a number went into
the Nursing Corps.
This is Miss Turner's 18th year as
principal, She has sponsored many
of the schools special detectives and
projects, including a recently pub
lished Service Record of the
Alumnae and Their Families: the
annual handbook called IN. c. S."
which the elder girls published for
the incoming ones. and the cred
liable student publication, Half in
