YJ QRANSTON was merely a background for tales about life upon it The Old English poems usually represented the ocean as awe inspiring and terrifying In an Anglo Saxon poem The Seafarer an old sailor emphasizes its coldness and cruelty He sings of the 1ce cold waves he ice cold sea he icy feathered birds and the 1ce chains that wulf the dangers and the treachery of the sea are prominent In telling of an adventure Beowulf says Thus we two were in the sea for the space of five nights t1ll the flood the tossing of waves coldest of Weathers drove us apart and a fierce north wind beat down upon us rough were the waves As time advanced there was no radical change in th1S poetry Poets did not as one would expect repre sent the sea as magnetic and 1rres1st1 ble drawing men forth to adventure Spenser seems 'to express the general feeling of his day in the Faerie Queen : Better safe port than be in seas distrest. Even the immortal Shakespeare sel- dom wrote of it. It came into his poetry usually incidentally. In The Tempest for example the sea was necessary just as in Othello Venice was necessary. As a lyric of the sea however, what could be more beau- tiful than Ariel's song in The Tem- pes ? Full fathom five thy father lies: Of his bones are coral made: Those are pearls that were his eyes: Nothing of him that doth fade But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange. More often he cursed the sea than 7 praised it as again in The Tem pest we find Had I been any god of power I would Have sunk the sea within the earth or e er It should the good ship so have swallow d and The fraughting souls w1th1n her After the defeat of the Spanish Armada a wave of patr1ot1sm swept England Songs and poems sprang up everywhere praising England and th1s spirit IS shown 1n Bishop Stills The Spanish Armada Though cruel Spam and Parma With heathene legions come O God arise and arm us We ll die for owre home' But though the poets told of great deeds and of sailor life they still failed to write of the beauty and ap peal of the sea The time had not yet come when they felt that they dared to break away from the narrow limits set by their predecessors In the latter part of the eighteenth century the Romantic movement greatly changed English literature. Poetry broke away from the bonds of the previous centuries and became free natural and imaginative. With this change came a new appreciation of nature. Byron Coleridge Shelley Keats and Wordsworth describe the sea in most picturesque terms. Byron pictures its mystic charm in Childe Harold : There is society where none intrudes By the deep Sea, and music in its roar' I love not man the less, but Nature more. Keats describes it in a calm: Often 'tis in such a gentle temper found That scarcely will the smallest shell Be moved for days from where it sometime fell. Many poets have treated the sea as symbolic of the Creator's power. In Childe Harold we find: MllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllhl ' 5 lllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllly 5, f ' ' ' O I 1 ' it 1 t .I ty tg . E fettered his feet. Again, in Beo- her Sailgfsf heroism-, Something, OE E t ' Roll on thou deep and dark blue Ocean ro Y Ten thousand fleets sweep over thee m vain Stops with the shore Tennyson in Crossing the Bar pictures death as a Journey across the sea from this earth into the hereafter and God as the Pilot who guides the ship Sunset and evening star And one clear call for mel And may there be no moaning of the bar When I put out to sea But such a tide as moving seems asleep Too full for sound and foam When that which drew from out the bound less deep Turns again home Twilight and evening bell And after that the dark' And may there be no sadness of farewell When I embark For tho from out our bourne of time and place The flood may bear me far I hope to see my Pilot face to face When I have crost the bar. Strange to say the best poetry of the ninteenth century was written by men of little or no experience on the ocean. With the possible exception of Falconer no sailor-poet can corn- pare with such men as Coleridge, Byron, Wordsworth, and Tennyson, who knew little of life on the water. How commonplace Falconer's Ship- wreck seems when it is contrasted with that masterpiece, the Rime of the Ancient Mariner. The ice was here, the ice was there. The ice was all around: It cracked and growled and roared and howled, - Like noises in a swound! And again when he describes the calm: 18 Day after day day after day We stuck nor breath nor motion As idle as a painted ship The twentieth century has pro duced innumerable poets and an ever increasing variety of these poems Stevenson Kipling Noyes and Maselield have preserved in poetry the traditions and superstitions that are dying out with the old time sailing vessel They have brought out the romance of the sea the eternal beauty and mysterious power that will ever draw men to it Gradually the sailor IS Winning a place as a poet Kipling and Mase field have both had experience on ships Both have written excellently of this life The restless longing and hunger for the sea and the very rhythm of the sea itself are heard in John Masefield s Sea Fever I must down to the seas again to the lonely sea and the sky And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by the wheels kick and the winds song and the white sails shaking a grey mist on the sea s face and grey dawn breaking. And And I must down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide wild call and a clear call that may not be denied: And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying, the flung spray and the blown spume. and the sea gulls crying. Isa And I must down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life, To the gulls' way and the whales' way. where the wind's like a whetted knife: And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laugh- ing fellow-rover. a quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.

At last they set foot upon the Senior Isle. The future glowed rosy before them as they began to follow the directions of the chart. Alas for their hopes! Their search led them to a deep, dark grove, where they were confronted by a giant, Vergil, by name, who put fear into their hearts. He was accompanied by two huge mastilfs, Translation and Scan- sion. The monster rushed forward, seized four youths, and instantly crushed them to death in his huge. hairy arms. The other youths, how- . I 22 ever drew their swords and rushing on him in a body soon slew him They then came to a grove of tall white trees one of which was called the Senior Dance another Class Day and still another the Class Banquet Under these they rested and were refreshed As they neared the end of the search the faculty who for four long years had been their counselors guides and friends chose those youths who throughout the voyage had manifested wisdom and a worthy character together with a Spltlt of service and helpful leadership and made them members of an association called the Rhode Island Honor So c1ety from the name of the native land of the Cranstonites Continuing to search the adven turers were stopped by the appearance of an enormous lion who seemed to be guarding the entrance to a grotto where the map located the object of their search. The beast was called Final Senior Exams. H sprang forward' but before he could be slain he had killed three youths with his sharp, cruel claws. When he lay dead, they entered the grotto. And lo! before their wondering eyes gleamed the Key of Knowledge rest- ing on a white velvet cushion in the middle of a green grove. After four years of adventure, peril, and hard work, the Cranstonites had found the object of their quest, and it lay for- evermore in their power to unlock at will the Treasure Chest of Life. xxmm nnnmnmamrnunmglz orlllilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllt Hatinggtol,Work.i These were cov: - I , i - A ' I1 ' U H e - - - 3 - .- - - lllllllllllllllillllllllllllllllllllx - - -n u an - - - - - - -4 sa LW MllllllllllllIlllllllllllllIllllll Graduates HOPE MARGARET ANDERSEN 45 Middle St Meshanticut Park Hope Try modesty s a, candle to thy merrt A A C15 C25 C35 C45 Thyrsu Club C15 C25 C35 Glee Club C35 Chemistry Club C45 Hope is+he-quietest of girls and the faithfullest of history students MYRTLE ESTHER MALKINA ANDERSEN 457 Reservoir Ave Cranston Andy Myrt Oh she srts hlgh rrl all the people's hearts A A C15 C25 C35 C45 Thyrs Club C15 C25 C35 C45 Dramatic Division C45 Girl Reserves C3 Girls Glee Club C25 Marshal C45 Myrtle recently gladdened our hearts by winning a part in this year s Thyr sus Club play CARL LESTER ANDREN 101 Potter St Auburn Lizzy Culla Never do to day what you can leave urltrl to morrow ' A A C15 C25 C35 C45 Thyrs C ub C15 C25 C35 Room Secre tary C35 Carl is everybodys pal and Crans tons foremost sport fan.

HORTON R CUMMINGS EUNICE STUBBS Student Council President Vice-President Chairman Representative .of Executive Committee Coming Down in 1937 It is thought that when a person is drowning, his past appears before his eyes. I underwent a somewhat similar instance when I fell from my aeroplane when it was sailing at an altitude of forty thousand feet. In- cidentally, forty thousand feet is a new record which I made and which I think will never be broken-that is, until some one comes along who has higher ambitions. 38 I was gliding along, trying vainly to think whether I had turned off the water in the bathtub before I left home, when suddenly my engine failed. In fact, it more than failedg it dropped out entirely. Next, I had the good fortune to encounter some sort of air current, and my machine was shattered into thousands of pieces. Believe me, it is terribly ern- barrassing to be forty thousand feet in the air-alone. ,......-..-.

O most royal Zeus king of the gods I herewith give Wisdom to these creatures that they may learn and be wise. Then spoke Hermes saying: I give the art of sport to these mortals. To kick the pigskin t hurl the javelin, and to run the race shall be their delight. Upon hearing this, Melpomene and Thalia spoke to the assembly: ' We, O Zeus, who represent drama, present these beings with the gift of acting, and may their words and actions ever be of pleasure to others. The well-pleased Zeus again arose and addressed the assembly: O, ye immortals, I am well satis- W I 45 fied with your gifts and to crown the mortals treasures I present them with the gift of service to mankind that assembly on Mount Olympus and We shall see how the mortals have prospered by their gifts from the gods They have benefited greatly by Athene s g1ft for many pupils of the Sophomore class are on the honor roll Marguerite W1ll13mS a Sopho more has received the highest mark of all the students of Latin in the twenty week tests Hermes gift of sport 1S used by Ruth Droitcour star guard on the basketball team Sims and Potter promising baseball players and Slms a member of the football squad The Muses gift of drama IS shown in Marguerite Wlll13mS Burbank Sims and Smith who are able to take both minor and major parts in the Thyrsus Club plays. Marguerite Williams and Milton Sims have displayed Zeus gift of service by being elected to the Stu- dent Council and the Sophomore marshals have faithfully served the school. All have served for it was the Sophomores of Rooms 1 and 4 who first followed the example of the Seniors in Room 13 and obtained 100 per cent of bank deposits. Altogether it is the most remark- able class that ever shone in all the works of the school. So we appeal to thee, O Zeus, to continue the gifts of the gods during our next and last two years in the house of learning.

There are many more classmates, whom we did not have time to talk about, as the Providence had reached Sydney, and we had to separate and go about our business.

He spies one, but does not dare to make any motion of recognition. In comes the Principal, who, after a few words, reads a list of names and tells him to follow a certain teacher. His name is read, he fol- lows, and finds himself in a roomful of strangers. He takes a seat assigned to him by the teacher, and sits, half fearful of what will happen next. A bell rings and he starts out on his first journey to find a room which the teacher has said is on the first floor. Almost everyone has found his room, while he still wanders along the corridors, and at last finds a door which stands open. What shall he do? At last he gains courage to walk in, and finds a lA history class going on. Blushingly he asks Where Room 47 6 lS and amid suppressed laughter from the pupils is directed to Room 6 He at last finds lt walks in takes a seat and IS asked his name After what seems a year another bell rings and he starts out on another terrible journey with a little better luck than the first, and so on until his lunch period arrives. Among a crowd of others he proceeds to eat his lunch. The afternoon passes without much difiiculty until the last period, during which he is called upon to answer a question. Blushingly he arises and stammers out something, for he feels that all eyes are upon him, and is suref that the giggling girls in the back of the room are mak- ing fun of him. He wishes the floor would open and he would go through never to come up again. At last school is dismissed and the first day is over. Oh! Boy!

For the first time, it started the new semester with a greatly increased number of members, this increase resulting from an amend- ment to the Constitution adopted late last semester. At its first meeting, the following oflicers Were elected to 54 serve for the coming semester: Chairman, Kingsley Read: Vice- Chairman, Erling Owrenz and Secre-A tary-Treasurer, Helen Hogan.

I chuckle every time I think of Patricia Pettingell as a maid and Russell Boss as a butler. I was not at all surprised when I heard of Al- van Anderson's dramatic success at Rhode Island State College. Had I not admired his ability many times? Many times I, too, have received a most important part, especially at Christmas time, for what is Christ- mas without a fireplace and Santa Claus? This year I was disguised by a red tissue cover. Perhaps I fooled the Freshmen, but I feel sure 57 all others knew me as the same old fireplace. I liked the Christmas play, 'Reverief because I had a tree, beau- tifully decorated, near me for com- fort. In this play I rejoiced to meet again my old friend, Earnest Barnes, appearing as a stern ex-Governor. I also made the acquaintance of three new friends: Margaret Marshall, Lawrence Burbank, and Milton Sims. 'AThe boy in 'The Reverie' saw pictures in my flames: I, too, in my reverie see memories of famous plays, famous actors, a famous club, and a famous old high school. 5. 5' 4 ' 'i '1 , ' za t .1 .,- y ?' f,- Q, , 1 J - ,M-L, The Annual Play Clarence, a four-act comedy by Booth Tarkington, was the play chosen by the Thyrsus Club for its annual dramatization this year. Un- der the efficient business manager, William Moody, and his assistant, Richard Brinkerhoff, the play was very ably given in the Grand Army Hall, Bristol, May 12, and in the High School Hall, April 30, The attractiveness of the stage was due to the stage managers, Warren Pearce and Henry property committee, Kay, manager. The play depicts the home life of a modern American family, much of the merriment being caused by the Wise: and the Catherine Mac- s ,i,,,, . I 58 quarrels between Cora and Bobby Wheeler. Clarence, a wounded pri- vate, obtains employment at the Wheeler home and straightens out matters. The huge audience followed with interest the fortunes of Clarence throughout the play. The cast, some of whomare pic- tured above, was as follows: Clarence ..,.. Violet Pinney. Cora Wheeler . Mr. Wheeler. . Mrs. Wheeler, Hubert Stein , Della ,.,.... Dinwiddie . . .

A few faithful ones, who had school bank accounts and the money, dutifully deposited their savings on the first bank day. Tuesdays came and Tues- days wentg but, by the majority of the students, banking was ignored. Then, suddenly, in each home room organization, a new office was created, that of thrift cashier, whose duty it was to take charge of the room's banking. The cashiers were duly elected and called to a meeting by Mr. l-lefler. They were instructed in the art of the duties of a cashier and in that of urging the members of their rooms to start school bank accounts. They grew very enthu- siastic over the idea: and each Tues- day the percentage of the number of bankers in the school gradually rose. ln order to make the idea a little more attractive, a contest between the rooms began, A chart, designating each room with a different colored ribbon, was put above the bulletin board in the lower corridor.

The influence of this club-the first of its kind in the state-has already been felt in other schools, for the West Warwick High School has now formed a musical club based on our constitution. Our monthly programs have been both entertaining and beneficial. At our November meeting, Miss Elsie Bruce, Supervisor of Music in the West Warwick High School, gave a talk on the A'Origin of the Trouba- dours and Our Modern Trouba- dours, and a student from that school sang several tenor solos. At 62 our December meeting, we listened to a group of children's songs by Miss Hill, Supervisor of Music at the Warwick High School. Of course, our own members displayed their talents at our meetings, and often the orchestra and Girls' Glee Club enter- tained. However, the most important event of the year took place at the January meeting, when MacDowell week was celebrated in the musical world. We entertained the newly formed West Warwick Club and the Junior Chaminade Club of Provi- dence. Reports on MacDowell's life by our members and various selec- tions on the piano and harp by mem- bers of the MacDowell Club of Providence made up the program. 1 , The Girls' Crlee Club At the beginning of the semester, the elections by the fifteen members of the Glee Club were as follows: President, Isabell Danekerg Secretary, Svea Peterson. Lucky are they who have third period free and are able to join the Cxlee Club. This club is different from regular subjects, excepting elec- tive subjects, in that it is not compul- sory. But one period a week at the Glee Club is not only for pleasure, as some seem to think, but for the 63 training of our voices. We have had two opportunities to show its prog- ress: once at the Monday morning Assembly, and again on Parents' Night. After this exhibition, com- pliments were received from many in the audience, which rightfully belong to Miss Mclnerney and her accom- panist, Miss Pine. Also, selected groups of girls from the Cilee Club have taken part in the programs of the Octave Club. Let every girl who can and will, join us. f---'N Girl Reserves The Girl Reserves IS a World Wide club organized in almost every high school throughout the United States The Y W C A in each city is 1ts guide As many times as possible during the year our club tries to do some thing for Cranston. To celebrate the Christmas of 1924, we gave a Christ- mas party to some of the poorest little children of Cranston, at the invita- tion of Miss Gould, the head of the District Nursing Association. There was a Christmas tree: and Santa Claus came to distribute toys. After that the children played With the toys, and we served ice cream and cookies. All of our little guests Went home very happy and with their faith in Santa Claus much more firmly established. In February, 1925, meetings were held every Thursday to make valen- tines for the children in the hospitals. In November, l925, every room in the building helped in collecting 64 enough food and money to supply ten families with ten baskets of food and ten chickens for Thanksgiving Again Miss Gould helped us to dis tribute them When the Christmas of 1925 came Miss Gould suggested that we entertain some old ladies and gentle men at the District Nurses Home on Rolfe Street. The party was held on the Wednesday before Christmas, and to entertain, We sang songs, While three girls with their ukes and banjo played the accompaniment. Our Christmas tree held a box of home- made fudge, a Christmas stocking filled with candy, and a soap-doll for each woman. We had cigars for the men. Apparently our older guests enjoyed the ice cream and cake as well as our younger guests of l924. To see the women so happy at that small party, and to see all of our plans so successful, made us decide to keep on with our club, and every year to do something to lighten the heart sof the poor residents of Cranston.

BUNKER G. BEAN The Chemistry Club At the beginning of the school year last September, a new organization, the C. H. S. Chemistry Club, was in- troduced to the High School by sev- eral students, who wished to continue further the study of Chemistry. The purpose is to gain a better and clearer understanding of Chemistry and its various branches, through the me- dium of interesting, instructive ex- periments and lectures. The officers are: Sidney Bunker, President: Mary Kelly, Vice-Presi- dent: Gerald Beane, Secretaryg and Harriet Seelen, Treasurer. Mr, Thompson, as the faculty adviser, 66 has given much of his time and effort towards its success. And his efforts have not been in vain, for already the club has proved its value by the suc- cessful exhibition that it presented on Fathers' Night. It received much commendation for the Work done by the members in performing various chemical experiments. It is now pre- paring a team to send to Kingston to compete in the Chemistry meet to be held there in the spring. Future plans are many and varied.

To this day she refuses to touch the ket- tle, preserving it among her various charms. One of her boarders read the telegram to her. He emphasized the words, On no condition, shall you sell my old clothes, until old Mrs. Gascomb bristled with indigna- tion at the idea of anyone's suspecting her of such a trick. Sell his clothes, eh? Aren't some people turribil, awful turribil? Unaware of the reception which awaited him, James boarded the one- man car and immediately felt at home. The delightful sway brought memories of horseback riding. He had settled down to read the adver- tisements on the car when he saw a 72 former acquaintance He was Her man Strass a former brewery worker out of employment and displeased with the present government espec rally the eighteenth amendment When James crossed over and shook his hand vigorously Herman looked very suspicious Doubtless he remem bered a certain man in New York City who had approached him in the very same manner and who had sold to him Herman Strass just arrived from Hamburg for only live hundred dollars a building that happened to be the City Hall Herman had soured on over enthusiastic strangers Vell he growled vat you Want by me huh?

He had brown eyes: yours are blue. Ha! Hal stranger, you can't fool me. No, sir! James got off the car at the line. I'll find some one who knows me, he vowed, or I'l1 eat my shirt. At that moment, Tony Rosa, fruitman extraordinary, was crossing the street. James was roused to ac- tion. Hey, Tony, he yelled, d you know me? Sure, said Tony.

There was no answer save a splash, as a form dived gracefully into the Water from the raft several hundred feet before him. Kent was astonished, then puzzled. He had seen no one approach the raft. He had thought he was alone-alone to enjoy the beauties of the moonlight night and to think. He sat there watching a few more unusual aquatic feats, when sud- denly the diver disappeared! Kent watched for his reappearance on shore. He waited long-but only the tide came in. Returning to the inn, having noth- ing better to think of, Kent pondered l74l over the scene on the beach. Was he sure he had been alone on the way down that board walk? In the back of his mind he recalled a certain thud. Between his even steps he remembered a single tread. That's right-he had been followed by a peg leg. But this had nothing to do with the diver, and yet-. Before breakfast the next morning, Kent hurried over to a variety store to buy a morning paper. As he was entering the store, he heard the thud of a peg leg behind him. He turned and looked. A hideous, malicious, slovenly, repulsive piece of feminine humanity stood there smiling at him.

Here was his chance He must get into the house The wind was now blowing violent ly It practically blew him off the fence so he crouched under the bushes below It blew a shutter from all of 1tS hinges save one and left it hanging and clattermg against the wall The window opened and a hand was thrust out The hand groped valnly around for the blind and then a head appeared' By a Hash of lightning Kent saw it was the face of a man Aunt Martha? A man? Two peo ple? These questions flashed through Kent s mind. Could he get up the apple tree and in through the skylight? He would try. Getting up the apple tree was easy. The climb to the skylight was perilous but he would risk anything for material for his story. At last he reached the hook and opened the skylight. He took one look at the stormy night and then descended the rickety ladder. He what right could face. Then went down and down--past would be the second floor-- down to the basement. He not see his hands before his Was there no second floor? the house must be hollow, one big hall. A few steps to the side. however, contradicted this thought. He bumped a wall on either side! He had forgotten. This was one house 76 built around another He was now in the space between the two outer walls For fear of being discovered Kent had not used his pocket light but small ray revealed shelves of chemical apparatus Test tubes retorts everything was placed there neatly There were packing boxes evidently ready for shipment The corridor was long encircling the house this 1S the herb doctor s workshop?

The thump sounded louder. That horrible man- woman was coming' In an instant he was hidden behind the packing boxes. Suddenly the room was illumined with glaring lights. Kent was blinded for a second. The peg leg came around the curve. It was a small man! -Kent sat there cramped and hardly breathing. If the man should see him!

Think he'1l make it? Who is he? Darn fool to go out on a day like this! During these remarks Helen Cur- tiss came running down from the 80 hotel She was dressed for a swim and had been attracted by the crowd on the beach What s the matter? she asked Young Reynolds fellow IS caught out there offered a bystander Hasn t anyone gone out to h1m? No one dares If he d1d get out there he would probably get caught too' There 1sn t a fellow can do it? Then maybe a girl can' Nonsense' Well shes going to try any way' Helen flung back over her shoulder as she fled toward the water All eyes were fixed on Reynolds so that no one noticed Helen until she had plunged into the waves and was swimming strongly toward the desperately struggling man Then cries of Stop her' She ll be drowned too' arose But lf was too late to stop her Already she was half way to her goal. The crowd was silent. Soon came the shout She s got him! And a moment later Where are they? For both man and girl had disappeared! Every eye was straining to see, when suddenly the two heads popped up several feet nearer shore than before. Instantly they vanished again. Everyone was bewildered until a voice cried out, They're diving and crawling along the bottom to avoid the current ' A shiver ran through the on- lookers. Once more the heads ap- peared and disappeared. The next only one head bobbed up. The crowd gasped, recognized the girl's head, and each person said to him- self, She has lost him, though not one word was spoken. ' The girl struggled on.

HOPE PETTEY, 27 Qllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll O'llllllllllclllllllllllllllllllIIIUW, Flying In Venezuela Unt1l about a month ago I had never heard of a real iron and steel train which could fly Doubtless whether there are or not I now be l1eve in them firmly I have not only seen one but I have flown 1n one They are wonderful and scarey In the first place they look like real trains the funny puffy pant y kind that one finds down 1n Vene zuela They have rails on which they are supposed to ride but that s where the catch comes 1n they dont r1de on rails all the time they fly' Between La Guayra and Caracas there are some very very steep mountains just a peak live thousand feet up in the a1r with the only thing anywhere near It a valley five thou sand feet below A little path round and round the mountain is regarded by Venezuelans as a pretty nice rail- road but we Americans can hardly find it in traveling. But to return to my fairy tale. The flying train leaves La Guayra with little me inside. I see the mountains in the distance and think complacently, Ah! some lovely scenery to soothe and rest me after my haggling bargain with that vociferous loud-speaker of a native back there. CAnd I still think he cheated melj The train puffsland jerks and pants up and up and up while everything gets farther and far- l I 82 ther down until at last I admit 1n wardly that although the scenery IS really very beautiful I do wish it quite so far below But I am happy' The person 1n the next seat engages me in conversat1on for a moment As I idly turn my gaze out of the car window aga1n my hair r1ses the back of my neck prickles and my eyes grow wide What I see is space emptiness nothlng and far far below some trees and grass and other lowly unappreciated things growing where it s safe We aren t even rid 1ng on anything the few feet of earth between us and the preciplce have fallen over Just what I was afraid of On the opposite side of the car a sheer wall of rock rises My eyes cling to it gratefully but somehow they find themselves staring again down that abyss. It is my luck to have this on my side of the car. Why oh why had I been so selfish as to choose the window seat? My companion complains of lack of room but I let her goright on com- plaining. I warm more to that blank rock wall on the other side than to my gorgeous panorama. The very brave man in front of me leans out window- No, not a track -to my frantic knew it,-we were flying!

Higgins were elected delegates to the league. About twenty-seven years ago the lnterscholastic League was formed and with it the B. A. A. at Cranston. The organization has had waves of financial prosperity and depression. 87 About live years ago it was riding a prosperous wave: now it is recover- ing from a flood of depression. The proceeds of the minstrel show and a fifty-dollar appropriation from the School Committee will lift its nose a little above the surface. The depression was caused by a falling off of winning teams. But we are gaining again. Mr. lVlerritt's football team was one of the best, if not the best, the school has ever had.

It is not yet recognized by the B. A. A. and therefore receives no support from it. The members of the team get no letters from the school. In spite of this, Cranston has supported the games well.

It is the hope of many at Cranston that golf will soon be recognized by the B. A. A., so that this excellent sport may be encouraged.

In spite of being handicapped through little practice, Cranston placed fourth With ive points. Outdoor practice was begun as soon as the Weather permitted. Our coach, Mr. Reeves, organized the team so that it Worked constantly under valuable criticism. The man- agers, unusually active, had the jump- ing pits in good condition most of the time. The team benefited by this better practice. 94 In order to rouse more interest in track, a room meet was held in which the girls took part. Room 17 Won, Room l2 was second, and Room lO third. A great number turned out, making the affair a success. Our lirst season meet was with East Providence at our annual Rocky Point outing on Arbor Day. Crans- ton overwhelmed its old rival by a score of 67-23. The girls Won all of their events. The point Winners were Read, Henn, Hahn, Haines, Verry. Allenson, and Kirker.

The G. A. A. has not been so ac- tive in social functions this year as in former years. Because of the double session, we missed the annual Fresh- men MiXer. As the A Freshmen go home at twelve-thirty and the B Freshmen at four o'clock, they cannot 97 easily attend this or any other G. A. A. meeting. However, the girls put all their spirit into the preparation of one social affair-an Hawaiian operetta. A'The Ghosts of Hilo. This was supported by G. A.

He immediately tried every exit but-nothing doing. I could hardly see him Che was so small and moved so rapidlyl but finally he rested on the f'loor near the cabinet and looked at me out of the corner of his left eye. He realized that his hash was simmering. Mouse said I we have fed you housed you, kept you warm in win- ter, and given you all the comforts of life, but we will not and cannot stand my sister's yelling when you annoy her. I didn't have the heart to kill him without first giving him a gen- eral outline of his crimes. Then I grabbed the broom firmly and, with death in my eye, I took a good swat at him. He escaped under the cabinet before I hardly had raised the broom, but I qu1ckly chased him out of there and he scurrled around hiding under varrous objects I chased him from one to the other steadily whacking travelled He kept running around until he made me dizzy following him 1n fact he went so fast that at tlmes I was serenading him with the broom behind the table While he was warm ing his shins under the stove At last I got peeved that this insignificant mouse was putting me to so much trouble but I had fully decided that curfew would ring that night So I laid down my weapon took off my Jacket vest and tie opened my shirt rolled up my sleeves and prepared for a second onslaught Once as he ventured across the room I took a vicious lunge at him but the broom did not hit the culprlt Instead 1t knocked off the cans of spices on the open cabinet door and they spilled all over the floor This made me more furious than ever and I planned to trap him. During his extended trips around the room he always passed one cor- ner. In front of this I placed the waste basket. The next time around the kitchen when he got in back of the basket, he hesitated a second, and that was the last hesitating he ever did. I hit the basket and the basket hit him, sandwiching him against the wall, He made a noise like the air leaving a balloon and passed out. Victory at last.

U5'f'itQIi-'30 IQllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllml 'll!Hillllllllllllllllllllllllllg ' ' QRANSTON Mrs Card Mrs Card the school mother is this year rounding out her twen t1eth year as head of our school lunch room. Her kind assistance in illness and accidents of the students has en- deared her to every student who has had occasion to seek her aid. A mem- ber of the irst graduating class, and a former teacher in the Princess Ave- nue and Highland Park Schools, she reluctantly agreed to take charge of the High School lunch room, believ- ing that she would remain but a few months. But now, in her twentieth year here, she says that she misses the school in vacation, so fond has she grown of it. When asked her opinion of the students, Mrs. Card replied: I think the boys and girls are just perfectly wonderful. They are patient and agreeable, and the only reason they ever find fault is because I won't sell them pickles Speaking of food Mrs Card remarked The favorite desert without a doubt is hot apple pie and ice cream. Pies are more ex- pensive than before the war, she said. At that time a quarter of a pie was sold for only five cents. Prices of everything seem to have risen: and when I raise my prices, ac- cordingly, the pupils realize, and are very sympathetic. When Mrs. Card first came to the High School, she used the small fur- nace room for her kitchen. This was very inconvenient and hard to work in. Matters have improved a great de-al, although she still works under great difficulties. As members of the Senior class, and as spokesmen for all undergrad- uates, we wish to express our sincere thanks and gratitude to Mrs. Card for her long and loyal services.

Yes, Satin, answered her closet mate, Miss French Kid. l've been to that party I told you was going to be held January 22, It was the Junior-Senior Prom at Cranston High School. l've heard somebody say that it was a rickety old hall, but, as far as 1 could see, all the ricketi- ness was covered up by the prettiest blue and gold decorations. All the pretty shoes I saw, too! And all the pretty bright dresses that went with them! I danced with so many of our male friends! There wasn't much difference in their looks: but, my dear, there were a thousand and one ways of keeping time! I do lll 2 believe I ve a hole worn right through my sole. There was one time when there wasn't any music, but a good deal of laughter and talk about the most delicious ice cream I have ever tasted. A'Then, one dance 1 got all tangled up in some funny, bright-colored streamers. Such a tangle! Why, it nearly took my heel off! Eleven o'clock came, and a pair of black satin slippers, accompanied by a pair of masculine shoes, took the floor! Their owners yelled about Seniors, cheers, and locomotives. Then, my dear, our mistress yelled and actually stamped me so hard it took all my breath away! However, here I am, none the worse for wear and ready for another such merry, jolly party. 1 , Xlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllillllm!
