Smith, Whose untir- ing devotion and friendly counsel have been of inestimable value to us during our four years at Keene High School, We, the class of 1930, sincerely dedicate this Salmagundi. IN MEMORIAM ABRAAM LICHMAN But, the fair guerdon when we hope to End, And think to burst out into sudden blaze, Comes the blind l3ury with the abhorred shears, And slits the thin-spun life. To one who worked side by side with us for three years. and then. in sight of the end of his task, fell from among the ranks. we offer this final tribute. There was none whom we would rather see with us today. But he is gone to higher things, and we can only hold his memory in reverence and try to follow the ideals that he has set before us, ACKNOWLEDGMENT The Salmagundi Board of 1930 desires to thank each and every member of the faculty who has aided in any manner what- soever the achievement of another successful Salmagundi. Spe- cial gratitude is due Mr. John Prentiss of the Sentinel Printing Company, Mr. Lcandre Strandt of the Union Leader Publishing Company, Mr. Fred E. Howe of HoWe's Studio and Mr. A. Ernest Johnson of Cutler's Studio, who have all helped us greatly with valuable suggestions in their respective lines of business. We ask our subscribers to favor our advertisers with consideration and generous patronage, for without their helpful support this Salmagundi could not have been published. THE EDITORS.

Very good hearted, loving and kind, A better friend one could never End. Ray has been greatly instrumental in plac- ing the Enterprise on the high pedestal of success it now enjoys. We all know him to be an active student and an energetic worker. Ray is a great lover of nature, especically of water, and he has become well acquainted with a cer- tain Field in this city where he may find lim- pid pools of- EMILY BROOKE WATSON Em Vice President 4 Class Basketball l, 2, 3: Basketball 4: Field Hockey 2, 3, 4: Secretary l: Latin Club 1, 2: Le Cercle Francais 2: Mu Delta Rho 2, 3: Science Club 3, 4: Salmagundi 4. There is language in her eye, her cheek, her lip. One glance at the above accomplishments and it is easy to realize what Em has meant to K. H. S. and the Class of '30. As a friend and classmate we could ask for none better, DANIEL JOHN HUMPHREYS Danny Treasurer of Class 4 Football 1, 2, 3, 4: Basketball 2, 3, 4, fCap- tain 43: Baseball 3, 4: Track 1, 2 O, 'tis a parlous boy. Bold, quick, ingenious, forward, capable. Danny's high-calibred participation in athletics has been one of the outstanding high- lights of the class of '30. With very few ex- ceptions, Keene High has never known a stud- ent so versatile on the athletic Held and so pro- ficient in the class room fespecially in Latinj as our Danny, DOROTHY BEATRIX PRIEST Dot Class Secretary 4 Commercial Club 2, 3, 4, QPresident 43: Le Cerclc Francais 2: Mu Delta Rho 3, 4, CVice- President 43: Minstrel Show l, 2, 3, 4: Home Economics Club 4: Year Book Board 4: Typewriting Awards 2, 3. Grace was in all her steps, heaven in her eye, In every gesture dignity and love. We have never been in Nelson, but it must be quite a place if Dot lives there. Despite the fact that she commutes daily, she has been one of the most popular girls in our class. The imposing array of activities above tells its own story. ZOIE ROSE ABARE Joe Home Economics Club 3, 4: French Club 3. 4 She is pretty to walk with and witty to talk with, and pleasant to think on. After two years at Troy High Zoie entered Keene High School. We found out during her two years at Keene High that her cheery smile and bright personality more than make up for her diminutive person. NORRIS M. AI.DRICH Nong Minstrels 3, 4: Mu Delta Rho 3, 4: Science Club 4: Debating 3: Salmagundi 4 Syllables govern the world. Norry is very modest and quiet. Classes sounded as if he used quite a bit of his mental energy in studies. He could twist his tongue to all corners of his mouth when it came to dialect. With hopes of a fine future. HITI.I'?N MURIEI. BABKIRK Iirench Club 2, 3: Commercial Club 3, 4: Type Contest Awards 3: Mu Delta Rho 3: Type- writing Awards 3. Honor lies in honest toil. Helen certainly knows how to win the type- writing pins. If you ask her she will probably tell you they come only by hard work. Many of her afternoons are spent in the typewriting room pounding typewriter keys in an effort to exceed her previous records. We are glad she is going to continue her good work at Keene Bay Path Institute. SUSIE I.ESI.IE BAILEY Les Class Basketball I: Track I: Commercial Club 2, 3, 4: Spanish Club 4: Minstrel Show 4 Never morning wore 'I'o evening. but some heart did break. It's true, in fact the heart of one of our Minstrels cracked more each day although Susie never disdained to notice him. CNever mind R---Y there are sympathizersj. She has chosen a commercial line for her career but her fav- orite amusement. dancing. always will occupy a great deal of her time. CATHIZRINIE IEVIELYN BAI.DWIN Commercial Club 2, 3, 4: Minstrels 1, 2, 3, 4: Home Economics Club 4 The Splendor of silence, of snow jewelled hills and of ice. Catherine has been one of our quietest class- mates, but when she spoke she usually said something that made us stop and listen. Her hobby sports could hardly be a better one. WII.I.IAM BAI.I.OU Bill Honesl labor bears LI lovely face Since Bill came to us in our senior year. we have been denied the privilege of knowing him as we would wish. Drop us a note Bill as you fly high over our heads in the years to come.

RUTH MILDRED BARRUS Commercial Club 2: Mu Delta Rho 3: Home Economics Club 4 Be good, sweet maid, und let who will be clever. Every day brings Ruth from Fitzwilliam to join us in our various studies. She is the best of students and the nicest of classmates. We are sure that you will enjoy your work in the field of nursing, Ruth. CLARENCE THEODORE BARTON Johnny , Bart Mechanic Arts Club l, 2. 3, 4: Soccer 3, 42 Minstrel Chorus 2, 3. 4 With his eyes full of laughter. When we saw Bart after Johnny's name we thought we had a baronet in the class but it was a prince, a prince of good fellows. John- ny is a wonderful machinist and a wonderful hunter, but just the same we want to know if he really killed that chipmunk with a stone. JAMES ELLIOT BEMIS Sporty Band l, 2, 3. 4: Latin Club l: Science Club 41 Year Book 3, 4: French Club 4 What should a man do but be merry? Jimmy has been a good companion to us all, and although he has not chosen his life work. we are convinced that if he puts the pep into it as he did into the K. H. S. Band no failure awaits him whatever his choice of work may be. FRANK RAYMOND BENNETT, JR. Janie Ice Relay Team l: lce Hockey Team 2, 3, 4, CCaptain 35: Science Club 2, 3, 4: Soccer 3, 4: Minstrels 2. 3, 4: Class Football 1. A good companion and as firm a friend. For you. Junie we have only the highest praise and commendation. We have more than enjoyed your gayety, your wit, and your humor. Your diligence and conscientiousness mark you as one most likely to succeed. Coach Watkins will find a gap in his team that will be pretty difficult to fill when you leave, Junie. ERNEST J. BISSELL Mechanic Arts Club l, 2, 3, 4: Minstrels 3, 42 Year Book 3. 4 Science is organized Knowledge. Ernest is interested in mechanics, electricity and Sciences. We are sure Mr. Damon will miss the boy who always observes. We know others who will miss you also, and hope to have your pleasing attitude restored to the Keene High School. ORMOND LEWIS BLAKE Bud Basketball 2, 3. 4: Latin Club 2 The World's great men have not ordinarily been good scholars, nor its great scholars great men. Bud Blake is the fellow who keeps the basketball sinking through the net and the spir- its rising to roof. He is also one of our best steppers . We don't need to wish him success because he is one already. EDWARD J. BOUFFORD Babe Mechanic Arts Club 1. 2, 3, 4: Science Club 4: Hockey 2. 4 It is not good for a man to be alone. In keeping with the above quotation, believe us. Babe knows what's good for him. But what's more Babe is going to continue his fly- ing at Fort Worth where he is going to become an aviator. We're curious. Babe. what are you going to do so far away from R. C.? MARION GRACE BROWN Brownie Honor Student French Club 3: Home Ec. Club 4 The secret of success is constancy to pur- pose. Teaching has allured another one of our bright students and, par consequent, Brown- ie will soon be back here teaching for her Alma Mater. Don't forget French IV, will you, Brownie? LEON BRUCE Lee Mechanic Arts Club 1, 2, 3, 4: French Club 4 Why do you bend such solemn brows on me? ' Lee hasn't decided what he is going to do yet, but if he does it as well as he does his French he'll be a whiz!

Owing to the fact that you have been with us for only one year, your write-up has been iather a sticker , Bug , We are glad to note. however, that you showed your line mettle and spirit by going out for hockey and basketball. NVhy that shy, diffident smile in History, Bug ? MARY E. CAHALANE Commercial Club 2, 3, 4: Minstrel Chorus Z, 3, 4: Home Economics Club 4 Age cannot wither her, nor custom slale her inhnite variety. Mary has one of those magnetic personalities whose life makes this old world go round. Her favorite amusements are Winter Sports but wherever she goes she's the life of the party. She hasn't selected her career, but in whatever she does here's health, wealth and happiness. STANLEY WILBUR CARPENTER Mechanic Arts Club l, 2 Attempt to the end and never stand to douht. Nothingfs so hard but search will End it out. Stanley has worked hard in Keene High and we are convinced that what he acquires he earns. W'e wish the best of luck to you in whatever your choice of work may be. Keep plugging at the mechanics and we can assure you a most pleasing position in a line field of work. DORIS ELIZABETH CARROLL Dot Vice President I: Commercial Club Z, 3, 4: Home Economics Club 4 Experience is good if not bought too dear. Dot has been a good student at Keene High. She has achieved some wonderful records on the typewriter. That's good work, Dot. and we wish you the best of luck in any of the many phases of life which you choose as a future oc- cupation. WALTER CASTOR Walt Minstrels l, 2: Chorus l, 2, 3, 4: Commercial Club 2, 3, 4 Is that that haughty, gallant, gay Lothariof' Walt is the young gentleman who collects slips during the seventh period. But what will remain uppermost in our minds is the memory of his work as end in the minstrel shows. Be- sides that he is also remembered as a great walker considering the distance from South Street to Chase Place. DORA AGNES CHABOT Do Salutatorian Commercial Club 2, 3, 4: Mu Delta Rho 3, 4: Minstrel Show 4: Typewriting Awards, 2, 3 She that hath knowledge spareth her words. Dora is another of our able commercial stud- ents who intends to continue her commercial study at Keene Business Institute. We are sure she will make a great success, in whatever branch of work along the Commercial line which she may choose. because of her quiet but persistent efforts. 1, CAROLYN ALYCE CHANDLER Chandler Latin Club 1. 2: Science Club 3. 4: Mu Delta Rho 3: Minstrels 2: French Club l, 2 XVe are young, and we are friends of time. Chandler , what is your fascination for ten- nis? Not by any chance a score of 2-0 is it? Well. it is a good form of exercise and recrea- tion. Some college will be fortunate in num- bering you among its members. CHARLOTTE HELENE CHANDLER Chandler Latin Club l, 2: French Club l: Science Club ' 3. 4: Minstrels 2. 4 Languages begin by being a music and end by being an algebra. Chandler is a loyal supporter of school ac- tivities. especially athletics, but we doubt if all her attention and interest is on the contest. We are glad to hear that next year you will be supporting the activities of some college. RUTH ANGENETTE CHICKERING Chick Commercial Club 2, 3, 4: Science Club 3': Minstrels 3, 4 W1'th mirth and melody and love I reign. Chick wants to become a nurse and what a nurse she was at K. H. S. Chick and Johnny sound rather familiar around the classrooms. Her catching smile is probably due to the fact that the sun sets in West-moreland. CHARLES H. CUMMINGS Charlie M. A. Club 1. 2: Science Club Csecretaryj 3, 4: Enterprise 3, 4: Class President 3: Min- strel Show 2. 3. 4. He served with glory and admired success Charlie has shown himself to be a very capable and efficient business manager by his success on the Enterprise . Glamorous and gay. witty and debonair, Charlie has been very popular, so popular that we elected him our Junior Class President where he proceeded to fulfill our highest expectations. will f I lab I D 133 it HOWARD EARL CURTIS Curt Mechanic Arts Club 4 'iThey also serve who only stand and wait, Did you ever see one of those quiet unassum- ing personages who silently goes his way, but who is nevertheless full of dry humor and pos- sesses a twinkle in his eye? Such a man is Curt. A certain car and a Stone held his attention but don't forget the machinery, Curt I CHARLES W. DEAN Charley Honor Student Class Basketball 1, 2. 3: Football l, 3, 4: Mu Delta Rho 3: Latin Club 1. 2: Enter- prise Board 4. He adorned whaleuer subject he wrote or spoke by the most splendid eloquence. We can almost hear the Dartmouth Indians cheering now when they hear of Charley's com- ing and they ought to for Charley is one of the best sports and all-round men of the class of '30, If he is as good at hunting partridges. etc., fthat is his favorite recreationI as he is hunting the right answers to teachers questions that accounts for the game shortage. JOHN EOLEY DEE Johnny Treasurer I: Latin Club 1, 2: Mu Delta Rho 3, 4: Asst. Editor Salmagundi 3: Editor-in- Chief 4: Science Club 4: Orchestra I, 2, 3, 4: French Club Z: Prom Committee: Minstrel Committee 4: Debating 3. lt is well to conjoin miusic and medicine, for the office of medicine is out to tune the curious harp of man's body. A few years from now we are going to hear of the splendid work of Dr. John Dee, and we will recognize this famous person as no one else but Johnny. Yes, John is going to be a doctor. and how could he choose better? He will probably sooth his agitated patients with the music of his violin. We expect great things of you, Johnny . ROBERT DOMINA Bob , Slim Football 3, 4: Hockey 2, 3, 4, CCaptain 43: M. A. Club I, 2, 3. 4: Minstrels 4 Work and ye shall achieve great things The brickyard held Bob up 'many an after- noon-and night-while on skates. He always did his day's work with a smile. Football and Hockey surely were boosted by Bob . Plenty of luck, smiles and pep for the future. CHRISTINE MARY DONOVAN Teen Home Economics Club I, 2, 3, 4: Hockey 2, 3, 4: Science Club 3: Basketball 3 To raise the thought and touch the heart, be thine. ' Any day the hockey team played we found Teen right in the thick of the fray, and she can use a hockey stick all right! In fact, Teen is good at anything she undertakes, whether it be athletics or studies. We are sure she will give her patients the very best in her as a nurse. CHRISTINE MARY DUBOIS Chris Minstrels 2. 3, 4: Commercial Club 2, 3. 4: Home Economics Club 4 A pleasant smiling cheek, a speaking eye. To find a girl with a better disposition than Chris would be a hard task. Always full of fun and pep. we know she will brighten with her cheery smile any place she enters. GLADYS MARY DUBOIS Glad Commercial Club 2. 3, 4: Home Economics 4: Minstrels 3, 4 She is gentle. she is shy, But theres mischief in her eye. Those who know Glad find her likeable. studious and one of K. H. S.'s best rooters. Swimming holds quite a fascination for her-a Hfteen cent ride in A certain fordito a certain lake. What about it. Glad ? MARGARET J. DUCHESNEAU Du Commercial Club 2, 3, 4: French Club 2: Minstrels 1, 2, 3. 4: Basketball l. 2, 4 Some think the world is made for fun and frolic, and so do I. Where's 'Du'? Oh, she's around some- where. Look around and Du is always Du ing something for K. H. S. Can she yell? And how. You sure ,helped K. H. S. along. Du , Keep it up and when you become a nurse we hope if you have some classmates for patients. you will be good to them. ALIDA B. DOW Li French Club 4: Minstrel Show 4 Fair rresses man's imperial race insnare Ana' beauty draws with a single hair. Li came to be with us in her senior year. We don't see how we did without her charming ways and those curls before. Li is going to Vesper George to become a costume designer. Won't you design gowns to it the slims, the stouts, the talls and the shorts for us, Li ? ROSE DUSSAULT Honor Student: French Club 4 Let knowledge grow from more to more. Rose joined us in our Senior year and we are sorry that she didn't come sooner that we might have become better acquainted with her. Even though she has been with us but a short time she has distinguished herself by her high marks. How can we but expect to see Rose's name among the Great Brains some day.

Studies serve for delight, for ornament, and for ability. Next year, Miss Crane will certainly miss the bitter controversies over objective and subjec- tive genitivcs between Dot and Jake , The School, as a whole. will also miss Dot for she has been an indefatigable, persevering work- er, always aspiring to highest honors. We know that Dot will soon take her place among the country's foremost. budding young authors, if she continues to write as splendidly as she did for the Enterprise . ETTA L. FIELD Latin Club 1, 2: Science Club 4: Mu Delta Rho 3: Minstrels 4 Society is like a large piece of frozen water. And skating well is the great art of social life. Etta, you have been one of our most efficient classmates and have attained many honorary standings in our school life. We sincerely hope that some prospective High School students will enjoy you as a teacher as much as we who have you as a classmate. GEORGE WILLIAM FINNIE Track 1, 2, 3, 4: Basketball CClassj l, 2: Treasurer 2: Commercial Club 2, 3, 4: Mechanic Arts Club 1: Science Club 4: Foot- ball 2. In the spring a young man's fancy. George is noted for two things-his llivver and the way in which he plays the piano. We know he gets his rythm in running from his hobby, music, not his Ford. When you're a foremost concert pianist, don't forget how to play The Orange and the Black , George. LESLIE JAMES FRASER Les Minstrel Show 1, 2, 3. 4: Science Club 4: Commercial Club 2, 3. 4 His madness was not of the head, but heart. Les, we'll have to pave Spring Street or you'll have to stop running the Overland up and down it. Les, is going to work for the Telephone Company so we can inform that or- ganization right now that they are getting one of the best members of K. H. S., '30. ANNA E. FRENCH Science Club 3. 4: Commercial Club 4 Her very frowns are fairer far Than smiles of other Maidens are. Business is always promising and there lies fortune for many. Anna. you have been an excellent commercial student so don't get con- fused with Sciences, because the world is not all scientists yet. We envy the lucky man who chooses you as his-stenographer. DONALD FRANKLIN FRIZZELL Frizzy , FrizzIe Orchestra l. 2, 3. 4: Band 1, 2, 3, 4: Science Club 2. 3, 4 Rugged the beast that music cannot Tame. Keep up your music. Donald, it will lead to a brilliant career as a teacher. You will be missed by all here at Keene High but we envy those students at K. N. S. that may have the pleasure of receiving you into their ranks. ELIZABETH S. FRIZZELL Berry Latin Club l, 2, 3, 4: Mu Delta Rho 3: Minstrels 3, 4 OI she will sing the sauageness out of a bear. Swimming and Singing have no direct con- nection but both are good exercise and each leads to its own door by which you may enter into the great field of opportunities. Keep it up Betty for great are the achievements of sing- ers. BERTHA IDA GAUTHIER Be Home Economics Club 1, 2. 3, 4: Minstrel Show 2, 3, 4: Science Club 4: Mu Delta Rho 4. o, Begone, dull care! I prithee begone from me. Be has a happy habit of drifting into a class when it is half over and then assuming an astonished grin as if she were agreeably surprised to find everything going smoothly! You're a great girl. Be . We'll never forget your cheer- ful Hi and merry smile by which we were greeted. STELLA MARIE GREGOIRE Greg Home Economics Club 1. 2, 3, 4: Commercial Club 4: Minstrels 2: Cheer Leader 4: Hock- ey 4: Class Basketball 3, 4 A certain portion of the human race has certainly a taste for being uampedf' Greg is one of the very few girls in school who have Elinor Glyn's indefinable It . Prob- ably that is why she has such a host of admir- ers and followers. A vivacious cheer leader, a cheerful classmate and an enterprising student. we could not have got along without her. MARGARET HANSSON Marge Commercial Club 2, 3, 4: Spanish Club 4: Minstrels 4: Certificate for Typewriting 2 Hope and fear are inseparable. Marge is another of those capable girls who helped in the office. The underclassmen will certainly miss seeing your smile first period each morning as you collected the slips. If you enjoy your future work as a secretary or book- keeper as much as you appeared to enjoy collect- the slips we assure you a pleasant career. SYBIL HARPER Syb Latin Club 1, 2, 3 A smile for all, a welcome glad, A jovial pleasing, way she had. Sybil is very diligent in her studies and very attentive in her classes. But nearly every after- noon we can see Sybil riding merrily around in her car, which, she tells us is her favorite diver- sion. Good luck, Sybil. RICHARD PAUL HEBERT Dick Mechanic Arts Club l. 2, 3, 4: Ice Hockey 2. 4: Science Club 4 Live to learn and you will learn to live. Dick has hit his Academics hard at Keene High. Although History and English have no direct connection with aviation we are sure you will be glad that you have spent these years at Keene High. We know not but what we will have a second Lindbergh in our class. EDWIN A. HILL Ted Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4, fCaptain 45: Mechanic Arts Club l, 2, 3, 4 The words of a wise man are few and well to be considered. We will be watching the sport headlines soon to find out how many three baggers Ted Hill made. Ted is quiet in school, but outside. especially on the baseball field, he is a different man entirely. Well Ted don't go too hard on the Babe for awhile. GERTRUDE HILL Commercial Club 3, 4: Typewriting Awards 2, 3 A good reputation is more valuable than money. The qualities of a good secretary are all ans- wered in Gertrude. She knows her Commercial studies and can put them well into practice. That stenographic position is waiting for you, Gertrude, and we are sure you will fill it well. MARGARET E. HILL Peg Commercial Club 2, 3, 4: Minstrels 2, 3, 4: Home Economics Club 4 P-petite E--entertaining G-gracious Of course, that's Peg, Such an industrious person as she, deserves all the success we wish for her. IDA ELIZABETH HOLBROOK Class Basketball 2: Minstrels 2, 3: Commercial Club 2, 3. 4: Mu Delta Rho 4: Home Eco- nomics Club 4. I would rather be small and shine than be large 'and cast a shadow. A very little and gay girl is Ida. She is in many of the activities at school, and there are a very few things she doesn't have a linger in. We cannot imagine her, with so much of the mis- chief in her eyes, as a teacher, but that is her desire. You will have to grow some, Ida, if you wish to discipline your pupils-but here's how! HAZEI. MAY HONEY Haze Science Club 2, 4: Home Economics Club 3, 43 Mu Delta Rho 3 Sober but not serious, quiet, but not idle. Hazel is a fine sport and a good friend. She is very quiet until you know her, then prepare yourself for a surprise. We wonder if Haze will be a swimming instructor. She certainly likes the water. JESSE M. HOOD Red , Jess Commercial Club 2. 3, 4: Science Club 4 Good Company in a journey makes the way seem shorter. Red made a good record at K. H. S, And we are sure that here he learned many things about machines, especially typewriters. However he has not found out anything to make the Over- land go without gas. When you solve this problem let us know. we would like to share the secret with you. NELLIE ADELINE HOWE Nell Commercial Club 3, 4 Thy modesty is a candle to thy merit. Nell has been an active, interested member of the class from start to linish. She is the same in all matters, ever showing interest and friend- liness. Further. we know her pupils will be lucky in having her for a teacher. What will it be, Nell , typewriting? CHARLES E.

She has not yet decided upon a career but we might suggest that she be a swimming instructor: how would that suit you, Ainit' ALFRED RUSSELL JOHNSON Al Baseball 3, 4: Orchestra 2, 3, 4: Science Club 3, 4 Nothing so reveals a character as the way in which work is done.

We wish him all success possible in his college course and in his career. ELLEN CHRISTINE JOHNSON Commercial Club 2, 3, 4: Home Economics Club 41 Two Certificates Type, 3 A penny for your thoughts.

I am not in the roll of common men. Kib is the proud possessor of three K's which he earned by his exceptional ability in hockey. We need not add that Kib has been one of the most reliable and one of the most consummate of Coach Watkin's charges. On consulting our crystal-gazer. Cnone other than the eminent Mr. Robert Dominaj we have no hesitancy in prophesying a position with the Boston Bruins in the near future for our Kib .

KNIGHT Commercial Club l, 2, 3, 4: Home Economics Club 4 No one knows what she can do till she tries. Here is one of our blondes who proves the statement, Gentlemen prefer blondes. Helen has lighted up many a classroom with her jolly smile and winning ways. She has been such a pleasant classmate that we wonder what the future holds for her. ls it business, or is it mat- rimony, Helen? BARBARA MURIEL LANE Barb Latin Club l, 2: Mu Delta Rho 3, 4 Delightful task! to rear the tender thought, To teach the young idea how to grow. We are glad you kept your curls.

MARY ANN LARIVIERE Marion , Peanut Field Hockey 2: Basketball 2. 3, 4: Commer- cial Club 2. 3, 4: Baseball 3: Typewriting Awards 4. A smile for all, a welcome glad, a jovial roaxing way she had. Peanut is small but she will not let that hinder her ambition to be a nurse. Her ready smile will cheer up many a sick person. We bet she will spend most of her spare time in riding around the country, how about it Marion ?

Mention-Harvard Book 3 The power of thought-the magic of the mind. In all our four years together, we doubt very much if Jake ever once failed to prepare his assigned lesson. Perhaps this accounts for his high scholastic standing but we know that from the ability he has shown, he could have studied but one hour a week and could have obtained all A's. DONALD LOISELLE Dee Football 2, 3, 4: Baseball 2. 3, 4: Minstrel Show 3, 4 I dare do all that may become a man: Who dares do more is none. hobby takes up quite a lot of his time but, nevertheless, he manages, when he is not involved in his secret intrigues. to come out to the football Held and give an exhibition of speed and power that would dazzle even Al- bie Booth himself. Dee has certainly proved himself to be a decided asset to the football and baseball teams. VALERIE BYRDIS LOMBARD Val Home Economics Club l: Minstrel Show 2, 3, 4: Freshman Reception 3. 4 Abi No more of that, 'Val,' as thou loves! me! Oyez! Oyez! Oyez! Val Lombard, the class triller .

ALFRED LAWRENCE LORING Ally Mechanic Arts Club l, 2, 3. 4: Science Club 4 Friends, lf we be honest with ourselves we shall be honest to each other. Ally has been another boy that has hit the line hard, and is about to receive his award for his hard study, and four long years of work at Keene High.

ARMAS MACKEY Mac Football 2, 3, 4: Minstrels 3, 4: Cheer Leader 4: School Dramatics 3: Track 3, 4: Science Club 2, 3, 4: Business Manager Year Book 4. He was not merely a chip of the old block, but the old block itself. Al Jolson, or Eddie Cantor, neither of them has anything on our Mac . Moreover, virile as a foot-ball player, assiduous as a student. agile as a cheer-leader. Mac certainly has a brilliant future before him and we are sure that in years to come Keene High will be proud' to have numbered him among her alumni. ..Dee,s,, AUNE S. MACKEY Mac Commercial Club 2. 3, 4: Mu Delta Rho 4 A quiet person-except when other wise. Aune, you deserve credit for the harvest of typing certificates which you have reaped. Those lingers of yours worked as much like any ma- chine we ever saw. Your speed will certainly be missed by the teachers and the envious under- classmcn. GORDON MAKIN Commercial Club 2, 3, 4: Mu Delta Rho 3: Orchestra 2. 3, 4: Concert Master 4 1 do not think a brauer gentleman is now alive. Gordon hasn't selected a career yet but he says his favorite amusement is music. We can tell that by the way he winds his legs around the chair legs and fiddles away. If he pulls in life's dollars the way he does typewriting cer- tificates he'll soon be a millionaire. DAVID M. MALCOLM Benny Mechanics Arts Club l, 2, 3, 4 These little things are great to little men. Benny is one of the 1930 class midgets. and a future aviator.

HADLEY LELAND MUCHMORE Chuck Science Club I: Class Baseball 1, 2 A pound of pluck is worth a ton of luck. Hadley has kept up his plugging for four years.

HELEN GEORGIANA NIKIFORAKIS Nicky Commercial Club 2, 3, 4: Mu Delta Rho 3, 42 Typewriting Awards 2. 3 A friendly eye could never see her faults. If you want someone to take down some shorthand and play on the typewriter for you. ask Helen, she certainly knows how. She has been the linest of friends and the jolliest of classmates. We know that there is a place for you, in the business world, Helen. and sincerely hope you find it. LUCILLE H.

Looks like Cracker tried to compete for high honors in extra curricula. I, I didn't get that question , seemed to be Cracker's favorite answer in some classes. Why not be- come a coach and some day join the K. H. S. Staff? Good Luck, Cracker . MARGUERITE NYE Ducky Basketball 2. 3: Track Z: Latin Club 3 One can laugh and doom a king. Ducky is a girl whose company we have enjoyed immensely during her years at Keene High. We are sure that if you can master those words which occur in current events for History IV that you will make an effective student at a Nurse's Training school. HENRY OJALA Ojalax Mechanic Arts Club 3, 4 You hear that boy laughing? Ojalax came to us in his junior year but he brought his laugh and memory of his Chem- istry Problem Book with him so that made up for the other two years. He has decided to go into the hotel business and we feel sure that he will always save the Royal Suite for his K. H. S. classmates. FRANCES l.lI.l.IAN PARKER Commercial Club 3, 4 A good companion and as firm a friend. A jolly classmate, a good companion, and a Hrm friend is Frances.

Red goes to New Hampshire University to become an engineer, next year, so here are best wishes from your classmates! LUCY EVELYN PATRIA Home Economics Club 4: French Club 3, 4 A quiet maiden whom we do not feel that we have discovered the light hidden under the bushel. l.ucy is quiet in school, but we doubt if it lasts while she is out skating. However she can look forward to a pleasant teaching career if her pupils cause as little disturbance as she does. 17.6 H LZ. . .

S. is sure losing a bunch of laughs in your-Da dum da da. RAYMOND RICHARDSON Ray Minstrel Chorus 2, 3. 4: Latin Club 1, 2 Science Club 3, 4 Stuffed with all honorable virtues. Ray is undecided as to his career but we hear he is going to the General Electric Company at Lynn. lf he changes his mind we hope he gets a position where the chairs are more comfortable for stretching one's legs than those of Keene High. ELSIE MARY SAARI Latin Club Z, 3: Mu Delta Rho 3, 4: Home Economics Club 4 Honor lies in honest toil. One of the studious members of our class is Elsie.

We certain- ly appreciate all you have done for this class, Elsie. WILMA WARNER SHATTUCK Billie Home Economics Club 1, 2: Commercial Club 3, 4 A wonder-a woman of few words.

ELINOR FRANCES SMALL Smalley Latin Club 1: Minstrels 2: French Club 2 A companion that is cheerful-is worth gold. Smalley , another of K. H. S.'s faithful rooters, was pleasing, good-natured and an all- around good sport. Commuting didn't worry Smalley because Swanzey isn't so far olf. The boarding-school which you choose will soon learn of your ability. DOROTHY MINNIE SPRING Dot Commercial Club 2, 3. 4: Field Hockey 2, 4: Class Basketball l. Z. 3: Typewriting Awards 2. 3.

ANNA MARY SULLIVAN Anne Commercial Club 2, 3, 4: Home Economics Club 4: Typewriting Awards 3: Dram- atics 4. Good nature und good sense must ever join. Anne is a member of the Commercial De- partment. Her choice of stenography as a life work is certainly well made and we are very sure she will be most successful as a stenogra- pher in a business office. But since seeing you as Peggy we wonder if you considered being an actress, or is this only a side line? HELEN MARY SULLIVAN Sully Commercial Club 2. 3. 4: Home Economics Club 4 I am sure Care is an enemy lo Life. Sully will be remembered as the little girl who had a big smile for everyone.

We appre- ciate the fact that it was with considerable difficulty that Fred was able to devote his time to his hobby, basketball. FRANCES M. UPTON Fran Commercial Club 2, 3, 4: Mu Delta Rho 3. 4: Home Economics Club 4: Minstrels 4 Whate'er she did was done with so much ease, In her alone 'lwas natural to please.

Our senior class president, Raymond Chappell, gave the address of welcome to the freshmen. and Edward Bergeron, president of the freshmen, res- ponded to the welcome. The faculty and class officers formed the receiving line and the freshmen were introduced by members of the upper classes. Everyone was then entertained by a Word Game under the direction of Miss Penney. Also a song Romeo and Juliet imperson- ated by Dorothy Clark as Juliet and Paul Perrault as Romeo was enjoyed very much. The grand march, led by class officers, followed, and dancing continued until eleven o'clock, Refreshments of ice cream and cake were served at intermission. Everyone seemed to spend a most enjoyable evening. The next event was the Football Dance held in the gymnasium on Saturday evening, November twenty-third. Shutzman's Orchestra furnished the music for the evening and dancing was enjoyed until eleven-thirty. Our annual High School Minstrel Show was held in the City Hall on the evening of Thanksgiving, November twenty-eighth and as usual was most successful from every point of view. The chorus sang unusually well and our own K. H. S. Orchestra accompanied the musical numbers in their usual very Hne manner under the directorship of Mr. Davis. The end men, of course, furnished the humor of the evening and put over some very snappy jokes and songs which were well appreciated. Those who took the part of end men were Chester Tobias, Clayton Barnard, Walter Castor, Herman Reed, Armas Mackey, and Ralph Holman. Francis Cheney was interlocutor and filled his part well. Between the acts there were readings by Goldie Crocker, a comic dialogue by Norris Aldrich and Ernest Bissell, a song and dance by Charles Kline, Shirley Howard, Frederick Grout, Vena Taylor, Walter Dubois, Valerie Lombard, Herbert Johnson, and Marion Stone, all of which were greatly enjoyed. For the closing chorus Our States was sung, and the girls who repre- sented the different states should be highly complimented as they presented a very bautiful scene. We must not neglect to mention that the second part of the program was put on by the High School Band, Mr. Karl Beedle, director, and much praise should be given the members of the Band and the Director for their very splendid concert. The entertainment was in charge of a senior committee with the faculty advisors. On February twenty-eighth, the play Climbing Roses was presented. Members of all classes were included in the cast. The parts were all extremely well taken and much credit is due the actors for their work, and much thanks is given Mr, Damon for the time and effort he spent in coaching them. Our High School Orchestra furnished very fine music before the play and between the acts. Another school dance was held in the gymnasium on March twenty-first, and everyone had a most enjoyable time. Music for the dancing. which lasted until eleven-thirty was fur- nished by Shutzman's Orchestra. Refreshments of punch and wafers were served during the evening. The seniors and the members of the faculty were entertained by the Keene Club of the Keene Normal School, at the Spaulding Gymnasium, on Wednesday evening, April twenty-third. After a delightful entertainment, a very pleasant evening was passed in dancing, cards, pool, bowling, and swimming. Refreshments were served. We take this opportunity to thank the Keene Club of the Normal School for their hospitality, and assure them that the class of 1930 appreciates it very much. The Annual High School night of the May Festival of the Keene Chorus Club was held in Colonial Theater on Wednesday Evening, May fourteenth. The feature number of the evening sung by the chorus was The Caravan by Richard Kountz. They also sang The Shepherd's Dance , The Hallelujah Chorus , The Land of Hope and Glory and the Waltz from Faust. The High School Orchestra rendered several selections, chief of which was The Raymond Overture . Miss Meriel C. Blanchard, a soprano soloist from Boston, was the assist- ing artist. Mr. Harry W. Davis drilled and directed the chorus and orchestra for this concert in his usual efficient manner. Commencement exercises will make a fitting end to the social events of the year 1930.

We take this oppor- tunity to thank every member of the orchestra for their eo-operation and their untiring efforts. and also we wish to express our sincere appreciation to the conductor, Mr. Harry W. Davis. as it is greatly due to his very eflicient directorship that our orchestra is one of the very best school orchestras. l'flyr' 55 THE BAND Who isn't proud of our Band? Although we only had the privilege of hearing them play once in Assembly, yet they made several public appearances, among which was the concert on Thanksgiving Night at our Annual Minstrel Show. They also furnished the music at the recent public reception given by the City of Keene to Mr, Clarence DeMar to celebrate his won- derful triumph in winning the B. A. A. Marathon for the seventh time, and they also played at the High School night of the May Festival of the Keene Chorus Club. On all of these occa- sions they were highly complimented and we feel that we have every reason to be proud of them. Mr. Karl R. Beedle, the director. also should be given much credit and thanks for his patience and endless work in training every member of the Band. , . lfrgqf .56 CLIMBING ROSES Ifronl row: Ann Carroll, lirancis Cheney, Anna Sullivan, Dorothy Sargent.

The purpose of this club is to become more familiar with Roman life and customs, as well as getting better acquainted with one another, and it has certainly served its purpose. Many interesting programs have been presented during the year, including reports on occu- pations among the Romans. Roman games were played and much enjoyed. Probably our most interesting program of the year was held very recently and was an open meeting, with Mr. W. H. Watson as the speaker on the subject. i'The value l.atin his been to me in my profession .

'X A541 if jk if f- 1 Y EDITORIAL Four Years ago we entered this school with which we now face the parting. We entered with wide open eye, trembling knee and with a strange sense of inferiority. How we looked forward to the days when we would be Juniors and Seniors and could walk nonchalantly up to the baseball coach and ask him what he thought of the Braves' chances this season! Remember that back breaking pile of books we took home that Hrst day? Remember how we sat open-mouthed in the back of the room, listening to the sage seniors discussing the Landing of the Pilgrims? Remember that first Freshman Reception,-the disastrous tales of previous receptions? What a sense of relief and disappointment: relief, because you were not made a fool of as you expected to be and disappointment solely, because none of the football team threw you, best suit and all, under the scalding hot showers as they said they were going to do. Nearly four years have passed and we have now achieved that longed for event. We are, and soon will have been, seniors. During these four ensuing years ample opportunity has been given us to form some ideas as to our future. We have all propably made plans as to just what we would like to do, but a great many of us will find that the opportunities to put our ideas to work and experiment with them properly seem to be beyond our reach, and if we want them, we must go after them. After graduation, the whole universe is open to us. Nothing need hinder the young man or young woman from becoming a success in the world. Money or position makes no differ- ence. The son of the day laborer is hindered no more than the son of the richest capitalist. There is nothing on the face of the earth that is unattainable to the ambitious and hard working person: wealth, position, esteem, happiness-all of these things and many more, are near and yet so far and we must look for them. A wise man once said, Too low they build, who build beneath the stars . How true are these words. Had Alexander Graham Bell been satisfied with a machine which merely transmitted a shout from one room to a whisper in another, would we be able to pick up our handy little desk 'phone and talk to a friend on board a ship bound for Europe? Had Thomas A. Edison been satisfied with that faint little flicker of light, would our homes be brighter at night than they are during the day? This modern world of ours has been developed by men who hitched their wagons to a star. Now let us draw a diagram of two islands separated by a wide body of water which at times looks calm and peaceful: but is at times a raging torrent. Let us imagine ourselves on the right hand side upon our graduation from high school. The other island. which we will call the Isle of Success , is thickly inhabited. Some of its inhabitants are rich, others are poor but all are happy, for they have accomplished some worthwhile purpose in life. To reach this Isle of Success is the ideal of most men. You ask, How can it be done? Come this way. Over there you will see a large number of routes leading over stepping stones: these stones always protrude from the sea, regardless of weather, but all are difficult to attain and one must hold to each until an opportunity opens for jumping to the next one. Most of these routes lead to the 'Isle of Success although they may require a long and round-about way of getting there. Some, however, are merely false leads, they look easy and are filled with people who seem to be prosperous and successful, but beware of the easy road, as nothing good is too easily attainable. The things worth while are earned by industry, patience, and persever- ance. Charles M. Schwab says, A man must have a lot of common sense. as no man can do much if he has not been endowed with a reasonable amount of brains. We are taking it for granted that every young man or woman graduating from the Keene High School has the proper amount of common sense. We come now to the question of what constitutes success. To everyone it has a different meaning. To me, success is not measured in monetary terms, necessary as money is in this modern life of ours. The richest man in the world is poor, who has not the satisfaction of having done something worthwhile for the benefit of mankind. It has been said, The million- aire who laughs, is rare. Real satisfaction comes only to the man when he has completed a project he has set out to do, to the best of his means and ability. This feeling of satisfaction, to my mind, constitutes actual success in anything whatsoever. The only way in which this combined sense of satis- faction and success may come to a man is by the best performance and completion of some worthwhile and beneficial task. And for everybody who feels that he has tried gamely and is never able to gain that sense of success, may I suggest the study of this motto, which always lingers in my mind. For when the One Great Scorer comes to write against your name, he counts not that you won or lost, but how you played the game. --John F. Dee, '3O. l'wgv 68 SCHOLARSHIPS AND AWARDS AVAILABLE TO STUDENTS OF KEENE HIGH SCHOOL THE FRANK A. WRIGHT SCHOLARSHIP FUND The late Frank A. Wright, in his will, left to the City of Keene, the sum of Fifty Thou- sand Dollars CS50.000j, to be held in trust and safely invested, to be known as the Frank A. Wright Scholarship Fund, the income only is to be used as follows:- Eighty per cent of the annual income is to be used to provide a college education at some college in good standing for some poor and worthy Keene boy who is a student in the Keene High School. Said boy is to be recommended by the principal of the Keene High School, and when such recommendation is approved by the Board of Education of the Unioon School Dis- trict, then such boy shall be entitled to a sufficient part or the whole of the income of said fund, if necessary. to provide him with all necessary expenses of a college education. Such boy chosen is to have the piivilege of selecting the college at which he is to receive his educa- tion, and he is to have suificient money to enable him to do his work in college to the best advantage. and to enable him to live and dress as the average boy in college lives and dresses. In choosing the boy. his scholastic standing shall not be the sole test, but his general' all round qualifications shall be considered. If the income shall be larger than that required for the education of one such boy at college, the surplus income may be allowed to accumulate until there is enough to take two or more boys through college. The remaining twenty per cent of the income of said fund shall be alowed to accumulate and be added to the principal in order that the fund may not diminish. but shall steadily increase.

Rolling across the green meadows it comes, a virtual chorus of joyous sounds as the voices of the peepers rise in harmony to welcome spring. Over there in the wet, green swamp they are raising their beady eyes to the silver moon, and swelling their tiny throats with happiness, for it is spring, glorious spring! Voices, the voices of nature that speak of love, life. pain, sadness-death. Learn to know them, to interpret them and you need never be lonely. Now comes another sound: a strange, weird. whirring sound whip-poor-will . Of what does it tell-sadness, pain, death? That is a voice that each must interpret for himself. The wind is rising and on its wavering bosom is borne a rushing, gurgling sound. The river, now freed from its icy. crystal chains, is singing of a strange, wild freedom that stirs my blood and brings memories of earlier days when, on some spring night, I had been awakened by a rumbling roar coming from below my window where, kneeling there with the cool, damp wind upon my face, I watched the battle between th: river ani the ice as the turbulent water strove to find a passage. There wat something almost terrible in the relentlessness of the water as it forced great blocks of ice through anything standing in the way. whether it was a sapling or a tree a foot thick. Yet always it was singing that wild. inspiring song of freedom. I have found that the trees have beautiful voices, very different one from the other. There is the childish little poplar with its tiny. twinkling leaves like dancing emeralds. The slighte't puff of air bears off its song, an indefinably sweet, rustling song to which the swinging leaves keep time. Then there is the grave, stately pine with its low, sighing, often mournful song-the voice of a monarch speaking to his people. All these voices come from Nature. The inspiring ones, the soothing, comforting ones are there for you and me. Keep council with them: take their advice-Yes, they give it and though you hear it not with your ears, in your heart you will understand, for they teach always the right, being not like human counselors, for they, the voices, have nothing to gain by your decisions. -Grace Kathan, '31, SNOOKUM'S DREAM Well, I certainly do lead a dog's life. sighed Snookum as he lay stretched out on the rug by the fireplace. He did not look like a dog who was suffering a great many hardships, but then-everyone has his off days, and this was one of Snookum's . Yes, sighed Snookum again, it's awful the way they treat us dogs. His sleepy eyes fell on his sleek brown coat and lighted with a glow of pride. Yee-Snookum was a very vain dog: but who wouldn't be with a coat like his? He often turned a half pitying glance on less fortunate dogs endowed with what Snookum thought almost impossible fur. Soon he grew so sleepy that his eyes began to shut in spite of his desire to stay awake. Then Snookum started to fly. He felt very queer way up there in the clouds. So this was the way the birds felt, thought Snookum. XVell. it wasn't so bad--he wouldn't mind being a robin-say-or a-. Ouch, cried Snookum, and he picked himfelf up from the ground. Well. he must have stopped flying. He glanced around, and his heart almost stopped beating, for coming towards him with terriflc force was some kind of an animal which he had never seen before even in his wildest flights of imagination. It looked like a dragon, or a bull, or an alligator, or all three combined. Snookum felt himself tossed through the air, and he landed in a great pool of tar. Goodness , though Snookum- my poor coat! He got up and was shaking himself when a man with a huge pair of shears came up, and holding him up by his ears cut off all his fur, Snookum awoke with a :tart an:l rent an anxious glance toward his beloved coat, What a relief!-it was still there just as he had left it. Never again, said Snookum in a determined voice, never again will I chew up two slippers before going to bed. Not on your life. -Marion Bugbee, '3O. Pngr 70 THE SUDDEN DECISION Allene Malcolm closed the door of her sister's bedroom and groped for the banister of the staircase through the blur of the tears. Below the subdued honk-honk , of a car signaled her that her father was ready to start. She quickened her step, stopping only to brush away the tears. Mr. Malcomb was already behind the wheel. On the seat beside him was a handbag. She caught her breath at the sight of it. How's Nell? She's still awfully angry at me, dad. She just can't see why I've any right to--to tell her anything or criticize her and I'm two years older. I know. I guess your mother and I spoiled her a bit. Allene. Nell will come out all right. I'd talk to her. but it seems I can't since your mother-, he broke off' abruptly and looked away. Yes: she'll come out all right. I-there's something I ought to tell you. Allen:--Now. I've been putting it off for a long time, hoping things would break right for me. But now I know they can't-soon. She waited. gripping the door of the little car. It's about college, Allene. I can't send you next fall. A She did not answer. That was like her. he told himself. Game to the last. Allene, the student: Allene, who through four years of high school, held the highest average. In two years you and Nell could go together, Allene. Nell needs you. But it's too bad to make you wait that long. If you could only help yourself any-. I can, dad. There's the Preston Scholarship. It's as good as mine if I can just get through examinations. They had arrived at their destination. He kissed her, and the car glided down the street. The girl went back into the house. Wearily she took up her history text for a final review. The interview with her sister held a dead weight on her heart. In the six months since their mother died, Allene found it necessary and yet very difficult to reason with Nell. Allene set her lips. Anyway only a few more months and this burden would no longer be hers. I-low her heart lightened at the thought of college. She would study with renewed efforts now. for Patricia Holmes, her rival for the scholarship, was close behind her. The next day was long and filled with examinations. But Allene's heart was light that evening as she walked down the stairs of the school building. No doubt lingered in her mind now. She had passed. she felt sure, with flying colors. Nell was lounging in the living room. Until supper was ready, she did not move. All during the meal silence reigned. Nell started toward the living room to resume her rest. Nell, you ought to help me do the dishes. The younger girl flared. I'm tired of being told what I ought to do. You think you know so much more than anyone else because you're trying to get that old scholarship, I sup- pose. I'm working hard for it, I guess. And in addition, I've most of the housework to do too. Oh, please stop, you're always fussing about something. Well, if I win the scholarship, you won't have to put up with my fussing, as you call it. any longer. Allene washed and wiped the dishes, then went up to finish her chemistry laboratory note- book. The house had long ago become silent. She Hung herself upon the couch to rest awhile, almost too tired to get ready for the night, It comforted her to indulge once more in visions of her life at college. Carefree! Aunt Jane could do the worrying over Nell then. What she really craved was freedom. She thought again of the scholarship and its terms. She had met every one. All her high school life had been passed in Preston. She was maintaining the highest average. She had been a resident of Preston. She sat upright. a terrible fear clutching at her consciousness. Why, of course, they had lived in Preston five years. But was it? They had come directly to Preston and had rented the very home in which they now lived in less than three days. She had seen a sheaf of receipts for the rent on her father's desk only yesterday. She could tell from them. He was very methodical. But did she want to know? Was it up to her to inform anyone that a matter of two or three weeks made her ineligible for the scholarship? Evidently the purpose of the five year term of residence was to insure that the last year of common school had been spent in Preston. She had done that. Page 71 K No: it wasn't her business to know and report the exact date of her arrival in Preston. Let the high school faculty do that. Such a technicality had no bearing, whatever, on her ability as a student. It was not her fault. She needed that scholarship. She had worked for it believing she was eligible. And Patricia Holmes-the tears were coming now-did not need it. She had .everything money could buy. She would go to College, anyway. It just was not fair! And then Nell's angry defense of the evening before came back to her. It was not my fault that I- -Isobel told me-told me the questions. I did not ask her for them. Was she at heart any more honest than Nell? After all the principal was the same. Could she ever look her sister in the face again, knowing that she had accepted something that didn't belong to her? Allene Malcomb arose and resolutely walked to the desk in her father's empty bedroom, shutting the door behind her. Sure enough, far back in one corner, lay a sheaf of rental receipts: She hurriedly perused them. On the very bottom of the pack she found: Received of G. A. Malcomb forty-five dollars C3453 for rental from July 6-August 6, 1924. M. L. BENSON. She dared not delay. Quickly she seized some fresh carbon paper, thrust it between two sheets of paper and sat down at the desk. She pulled 'the sheets from the machines and signed her name to the top one. Then she addressed an envelope. Before she folded the letter she read it over. Miss Myrtle Herndon, Principal, Preston High School. Miss Myrtle Hendon, You encouraged me recently to believe that I could win the scholarship. I realizecl, how- ever, for the first time tonight that I am not eligible for the scholarship. We moved to Preston July 3, 1924. Therefore, I will lack nearly three weeks of having lived in Preston live years. I am therefore writing to avoid an embarassing situation. Sincerely. -Allen Malcomb. The next day was torture to Allene. She passed through Miss I-Ierndon's office once and noticed the pile of unopened letters on her desk. Whether or not Miss Herndon had read her own message, she gave no sign to the heartsick girl, who was trying bravely to present a cheerful exterior to her classmates. But after the students were dismissed, she slipped away for a little walk. When she reached home, Nell wasn't there, At a quarter after eight she, feeling she could face no.more, went upstairs to bed. She heard Nell come in, heard her come up stairs, and enter her room. Tears wet her pillow as she reflected that freedom from care and responsibility was not for her. Allene. She stiffened, caught her breath, waited a second. Then striving her calmness, Yes, Nell, what-what is it? Allene--may-I-you don't care, do you Allene, if I sleep with you to-night? Of course not, dear. Come right ahead. She heard the other stumbling a little and groping for the bed. Then Nell was in beside her, her arms clasped around her neck. Allene-I know! I think you're the bravest girl in the world! You wanted that scholarship dreadfully, you ought to have it too. You're so line, so honest, Allene I wonder if I'll ever be like you? I went to dad's desk this morning, the other confided, to type the words of a song. I picked up the Erst carbon sheet I came to. Two of them stuck together. I pulled them apart. Allene, you used two carbon sheets in your letter. And it was printed on the back of one. That's how I know about the letter. I want you to know I-I went to Professor Webber this morning and told him that I'd received information before my history examination about two of the questions. Of course with those two questions out. I flunked the course. He asked me why I finally told him. And Allene, I told him it was because I had the honestest sister in the world, and that she wanted me to be honest too. They were crying now, clinging to each other in the darkness. But they were tears of relief, of joy, of love. And the next moment Allene's were of sheer triumph. Oh, Allene, I can't help-oh, I know I'm selfish-but I'm glad you'll wait for me. It would be wonderful to go to college with you. I need you Allene. Aunt Jane doesn't under- stand me as you do. And Allene, I'll try to make it up to you, somehow, honest, I will. -Doris Whiton. '30. I' a g c 7 2 FRIENDS One of the dearest things on earth a person can have is a friend. Some people may not realize this because they have so many acquaintances. But are they all friends? Sifting it down, what is a friend? Is it simply one who likes to chum around with you merely because you are popular? Is it one who fawns on you because you may be invited to his or her party? Is it one who is always trying to gain something from you. never to give? Is it your everyday acquaintance with whom you talk of trivial things? Or is it the one with whom you can talk, finding out his innermost thoughts and ideas on subjects which trouble you? There are dangers. however, in having too close friendships with others. We must be care- ful not to be governed by the other in such a way that we become almost a part of the other person. There is also a danger in having too close friendships with others who are several years our senior. The younger may awake some day to the fact that the older is cultivating .friendship with him to gain something of youth and is at the time trying to take him away from his right- ful companion of the same age. If we have several chums with whom we associate. it is better to have no best friend, but merely chum equally with all. One is happier so. Deep friendshipsx are fine, if they do not absorb one so that other important things are overlooked, and if they are between two of nearly the same age, and if no bad influences are rendered from one to the other. - Yet the happy-go- lucky friendship between a group who associate together is one of the best and most wholesome friendships of all. --Ruth Witham, '3l.

Page 73 CLUB SPIRIT This club is too dead: I'm going to resign. This remark some club members have been heard to make. Why do they say this? Well, mostly, because they never stop to think what their club or any other such organization in which they participate, would be if every member were to say and do the same thing. They never stop to realize that a club or anyhing else, is what you make it: and if they have the idea that the club of which they are a member is not lively enough, they will sit back and do nothing to aid or to increase the interest in it. These same grumblers have not fully realized why the club is organized. When such a derogatory statement is uttered in the presence of other people. these latter do not have a very good impression of the club. This is not the proper spirit to exercise. When a meeting, no matter whether business or social, is held, be prompt in attending: and, if appointed to serve on a committee, do not say, Oh, I don't want to: it's too difficult. But do the very best you can to help. If games are played at the meeting, be an earnest and eager participant, and don't remark, for instance, Say, why are such kiddish games played in this club? It's dead enough. Why make it worse? Now, are these who have made suchutterances. the most popular in the club? Those who do their very best iniall the club work which they are elected to do are the most pop- ular, because, if they are on the entertainment committee, they do their best to please everyone in the club, and everyone likes to be pleased. At another time, Order is called for in the club and, at the same time, someone decides he just must tell his neighbor about some gossip which probably should never be repeated anyway. What is the result? The club is held up until Miss Jones has told Miss Brown about the clothes which Miss Antoinette wore to chapel last Sunday or other such gossip. The same thing happens when someone has been called upon to speak. Once more, order has to be procured: and the longer it takes to restore order, the longer is the speaker compelled to refrain from giving his address. Again, what is the result? The meeting is delayed, and everyone complains about the club being slow or 'fdead . People who declare the club as slow or dead are only what are known as club cynics. What is a club cynic? It is very easy to explain. A club cynic is one who never sees the reason for the existence of a club, or why it helps one to be a member. His criticisms about everything done in the club are heard. It is impossible to indulge in habitual adverse criticism of our fellow club members with- out injuring the tenderness and the delicacy of our own feelings. A man will be what his most cherished feelings are, writes Dr. Samuel Johnson. Everyone should be loyal to the organization in which he participates: and if one has the right club spirit, he can't help being loyal. Members of the Keene High School Clubs, let us try to make this and every year, a social year, and work for our clubs as we have never before worked. ' -Aurelia Croteau. '32. ANOTHER JUNE Regardless of how we feel, and of what may happen, I suppose even if the sky should fall, Time would still go on. Ra-in, shine, spring, summer, fall. winter, joys, sorrows, still the earth goes round. It may push us along, hold us back, help us up, or crush us beneath its merciless grinding, but there is never a pause. It goes round and round and round, and every day, every minute some one loses his hold and drops off, some new life catches up, or some change is going on in someone's life. How busy the gigantic wheel of life is when it revolves each year to June! Lives that have been happy, peaceful, joyous, content to take things as they are, must now wake up to find a change before them. Time has revolved too quickly. It is too soon! Why! we aren't even grown up yet! Surely we are not so old, so experienced as the Seniors have been before us! But, nevertheless, it is so. We are the Seniors of 1930. To our school June means another graduating class: to our English instructor, more papers of sobs and moanings on graduation: to our teachers, passing of pictures in classes, and endless autographing: to the underclassmen, good riddance, and room for them: to us-how many things it can and does mean to most of us! But our faculty can understand. They can smile encouragement and sympathy to us because they surely remember their own graduations. Each individual has plans and fears of his own, but we are all leaving one haven together, all looking forward for the best, and all eager to begin our own struggle. Whether we succeed in achieving our goals, we must leave to the future to reveal. Time is catching up with us, slowly but surely. Plan carefully, watch the present, and the future will take care of itself, and always look on the bright side and remember, The best is yet to come. -Anna Sullivan,'30. Page 74 THE VILLAGE BLACKSMITH CWith apologies to Henry W. Longfellowj Under a huge electric sign The village smithy stands: He sells machines of every kind. With guarantees on every can. He hasn't made a shoe for years For fear he'd soil his hands. His face, once tau, is pale and dry- His hair is thin and white. He wears a diamond in his tie Which blinds one with its light. There's not a thing the smithy wears That doesn't please the eye. Week in, week out, from morn till night, He sees the autos come. With brakes that do not work just right And motors that will not hum. With gas, repairs, and grease, and oil He makes a tidy sum. He has a staff of skillful men That number twenty-four, Who work from six A. M. till ten And sometimes even more. The smithy never does a stroke- He thinks that work's a bore. He goes on Sunday to the church His mind free from despair. He hears the parson pray and preach, To which he listens with care, While his men are working hard With punctures to repair. Oiling-repairing-refilling. Onward through life he goes, Each morning sees some task begun- And sees his income grow. Each night the thought of something done, Adds to his sweet repose. -Phoebe Beal, '32. THE SINGER 1 There's a babbling brook in the wood That tumbles and laughs down a hill, And it gurgles along through the vale Toward a place where it turns an old mill. II There's a song in its hurrying course. And it whispers softly its glee As it crosses the broad fields of corn, And hastens right on to the sea. III When you're weary of working all day, And everything seems to go wrong, Make music, laugh like the brook, And lighten your burden with song. --Marie Paulson, '32. Pagl 75 THORNS Sorry, Rose. Can't possibly make it. Yes, I know you were planning on it. Have to go over some plans with McPherson. Will be with you tomorrow sure. Good-by. Rose Graham hung up the receiver and rather abruptly went to the window. With her pretty eyebrows drawn into a tight line, she contemplated the loveliness of the summer evening. How she had wanted to go somewhere with Harvey this eveningl It was the fourth time he had failed her that week. Making a little gesture of weariness, she thought of all the other nights he had phoned her the same message. Life really wasn't so wonderful to people who were engaged after all-at least not if your fiance was a civil engineer and deeply engrossed in his work. 'But even if she should protest, she thought rebelliously, he would only throw back his curly blonde head and perhaps quote laughingly: For men must work and women must weep Though the harbor bar be moaning. She found an easy chair and leaned back with half-closed eyes. A flood of memories passed before her: the time she had Hrst seen Harvey-she recalled that vividly-and then their engage- ment that had seemed so glorious-she remembered her pride at introducing him. Even his name, Harvey Weston, which to some might seem commonplace, had captivated her. They planned to be married in a few more months-months of loneliness it seemed to her at that moment. She called to her mother, Harvey won't be here tonight, mother mine. The following evening she was again called to the phone. Hello. Hello, sweetheart. Will be with you soon, a deep masculine voice assured her. Oh, you mean tonight? Rose asked, feigning surprise. Why, yes. You see-I-er had planned something else. You mean you're going out this evening? Yes. But I don't understand. What's the matter? Nothing, but I didn't know you were coming here tonight so I planned to do something U u rr an else. Oh, I see. Will you be home tomorrow evening? I think so. Well, chars that. Good-bye. Good-bye. Strangely enough Harvey was able to keep his appointment the following evening, but the moment he entered the house Rose realized that there was a lot of tall explaining to be done. He did not refer to the incident until they had talked quite a time about trivial things. Then he queried rather abruptly. What girl friend did you ditch me for last evening? Rose shook her head. No girl friend. I went with Chick Thomas. Chick Thomas! Harvey exploded. Now I want to know what's up, Rose. Nothing, Rose was still non-commital, only I'm tired of sitting at home and folding my hands every evening-evenings like these. Her gaze wandered to the outline of purple hills still visible in the dusk. Matters went on for some time in this way. Sometimes Rose was home when Harvey called: often she was out. Their evenings together were no longer spent in making plans for their future or in complimenting each other. Often Harvey talked wtih her father about his work, about politics. or about events of the day. Never before had Rose resented l-Iarvey's brilliance. They were not suited, she thought, even though they had been so sure they were. She was brought rather rudely to her senses, however, one evening when Harvey was preparing to go. He spoke with his face averted from hers. I'm leaving for Chicago in the morning. I'll be away two weeks or more, he informed her. Perhaps we can come to an understanding before I leave. You mean tonight? she almost whispered. She wondered dully why she hesitated. Wasn't this what she had planned,for all along? She hear him say, Yes , calmly. The soli- taire on her finger-she reached for it-struggled to remove it from her finger. I'd rather you sent it to me, she heard his voice a great way off, it seemed. She nodded. More weeks passed, longer and lonelier ones. Someone said Mr. Weston was back in town. Shadows were falling in the great old garden while Rose sat meditating beneath a tree. Page 76 With a little sigh she got up and turned toward the house. Some one stood directly in her way -some one with broad shoulders and curly blonde hair. Oh, you? she gasped. ' t He laughed, Who else? I thought that if you didn't have something more important to do. I might help you to pass your time. She blushed guiltily, Won't you come into the house? It's very nice out here. he drawled lazily. Why is it you're not enjoying Chick Thomas' company? There was no reply. You see, I met Chick the other evening. and he claimed he hadn't been with you since our engagement was announced. That's true, she answered, raising shamed eyes to his. I lied to you. Why? You were so sure it was a girl I was with -:he struggled for words. very close to tears. When I didn't go anywhere. and all the other evenings I only went occasionally with girls. That's quite a crime, little girl. Why did you do it? He was laughing at her, laughing as he had before, but she wasn't angry. Oh, I'm glad you're here. I like that. Now she was a great deal closer, half-crying. I'm sorry. But listen, Rose. my wife will have to be patient. My work is like that. We can be married in two or three weeks.-but are you sure? Very sure. Several nights later after a perfect evening together he told her of a present. Open it after I leave, he grinned. You might be angry at me and so I want to be out of the way! I won't be angry, she promised. She opened the long flat package soon after he had left. A motto in an elaborate frame met her glance. She bent over to read the words: This old world we're living in Is mighty hard to beat. You get a thorn with every rose. But ain't the roses sweet? -Alice Kirkpatrick,'30. PERSONALITY What is personality? In a rather vague definition, Webster defines it as that which consti- tutes distinction of person. In a rather peculiar definition. Franz Strother terms it as that which brings the inside of ourselves to the outside. Personality, in a way, is a virtue, and like a virtue must be cultivated. To have a pleasing personality, one must observe first: his will, second: his character, and third: his individuality. Of the three, will is obviously the most important. The will must be trained to habits of decision-otherwise it will neither be able to resist evil nor to follow good. Energy of will- self originating force-is the soul of every great character. Character is also important in the cultivation of a rich personality. In principles, integrity. and practical wisdom, character exhibits itself. With intellectual capacities it is sometimes even found associated. The third point is individuality. Individuality creates personality, for it is invariably associated with self. Ladd writes. Self combines very naturally. indeed quite inevitably. with all the personal pronouns, and this affirms the invincible authority of self-consciousness. which attributes to every individual human being a peculiar and continuous sameness of his own. Have you ever noticed how personality works? Have you ever observed how its vigor will invigorate you, how its freshness will refresh you, how its subtlety will charm you? Have you ever noticed the intellect of a person who possesses a striking personality? His versatility, his virility, his infusing spirit, his remarkable courage are all attributes of personality. To me, personality may be defined as that which exemplifies human nature in its highest forms. -Jacob Lichman, '30. Page 77 THE WAYS OF PEACE , A few centuries ago every man deiided for himself what was best and attempted to defend his rights or to win his desires by force. The result was that people were always Hghting: the strong were ever oppressing the weak: and neither property, home, nor life was safe. When every man carried weapons, private fights were an every-day occurrence. But as nations became more civilized. individual citizens gradually turned over to the government the duty of capturing and punishing law-breakers. Instead of settling personal fights by the sword or the pistol, civilized men have learned to submit their troubles to courts and juries, which administrate justice, and make personal fighting unnecessary. The carrying of concealed weapons is now against the law, and a civilized nation punishes a man whenever he commits violence, except in defense of his property, his person, or his life. As the world becomes more enlightened, and people learn how much better it is to decide personal troubles by peaceful means rather than by force, we may hope that the nations them- selves will also learn to settle their differences in similar ways. One great difficulty exists. Within each nation there are authorities which can compel the individual citizens to submit their quarrels to the courts, but there are no international policemen who can insist that disputes between nations shall be settled by peaceful means, Each independ' ent nation has usually been a law unto itself. No authority can compel the United States, or Spain, or Germany, or Turkey to do right, or to refrain from doing wrong. Nations, like private citizens of long ago, carry arms. Every time two nations are armed and ready for combat, there is grave danger that war will occur, then difficulties arise. Realizing this, and knowing that one nation cannot be expected to disarm while others maintain military and naval forces, the civilized peoples of the world are now entering upon a program of' gradual disarmament. In this program the United States, Great Britain, Japan, Italy, and Fgalnxce have made a notable beginning. Many people also expect great good from the League o ations. During this program every honorable nation, especially if it be a strong nation, will do its btstto commit no wrong, will hesitate to use force if any other possible way of securing justice exists, and will cultivate by every means in its power the friendship of all other nations. As nations learn to settle their differences peacefully, to that extent will peace and good will, mercy and justice becomes the keynotes in a civilized world made up of nations and honor. --Edward Saari, '32. JUNE TIME 1 We are glad to greet the summer, As she returns once more, And brings green things and sunshine. And blossoms gay, galore. II The girds sing late and early, The world is all in tune: There is no time so lovely As the glorious month of June. III Our schoolmates all seem happy, A smile upon each face: Their hearts are light and joyful, No cloud can find a place. IV Vacation lies before us. To dream, to rest, to play, And we are quite contented To have things just that way. Ruth E. Rix, '32 Page 78 BELOW 'THE WAVES Q One of the most dangerous and hardest occupations is that of a deep sea diver. The condi- tions under which he works differ so greatly from the conditions to which he is accustomed. that it is very difficult and dangerous to accomplish his task. The risk that is involved in this work is demonstrated when we learn that although insur- ance companies will insure soldiers and aviators, they will not insure divers. Thirty-five years is considered the age limit for active diving. The diver's apparatus consists of a copper helmet to which the airhose is attached. A valve is placed in the back of it to allow the bad air to escape. His suit is of rubber. He is weighted down with a very heavy metal belt, and heavy iron shoes. In especially cold water he has to wear gloves, usually two pairs, woolen ones to keep his hands warm. and a rubber pair to keep them dry. Before the diver is dressed in this suit, he dons three suits of heavy underwear to keep himself warm. He always keeps in touch with the ship above by means of his telephone and lifeline. He is able to keep in constant communication with the person above by means of his telephone. The lifeline is used to pull him to the surface, or if his phone is put out of commission, he could signal by means of the line. The greatest danger is the pressure of the water. At a hundred feet, the pressure of the water is very great and could easily crush the diver. To take care of this, enough air is sup- plied in the diver's suit to neutralize the outside pressure. If the supply of air from above was cut off, the diver would be immediately crushed. If the exhaust valve should become clogged. his suit would become inflated, and he would rise to the surface with great speed. Such rapid change in the pressure would probably kill him. While working under great pressure, much bad air is forced into his blood. If suddenly less pressure should be applied, the effect would be much the same as that of a newly opened bottle of ginger-ale. His blood would be filled with minute air bubbles, which cause great pain. This disease is called the bends because of the contortion of the sufferer. To overcome this he is drawn to the surface very slowly. If a diver has been down for an hour, it usually takes two hours to haul him up. This process is called decompression. The diver works under great difficulties. The water is usually so cold that he has to wear gloves. It offers so much resistance that the diver finds it very difficulty to handle his tools. It is very hard to see far under water even with the aid of a powerful lamp. He must of course. be very'careful-to keep his airhose free, because if it should become entangled and break, he would suffocate. ' Although the life of a deep sea diver is extremely interesting, considerable work and hard work are involved. He must, of course, be very healthy and strong. He must always remain calm and keep a level head. First-class divers are extremely scarce. and hard to find. --Raymond M. Chappell, '30. MEMORIES As I look back upon the years That have so quickly flown, I take a different view of life, For these old days I moan. Four years to look ahead are long, But to look back--not so, For very soon will come the call To other schools to go. Our many friends here in this school, Have proved both kind and true, We hope their friendship long will last As we now say adieu. Dorothy Tibbetts, '30 Page 79 Page 80 UPREFERENCEH What do you like?

No horns to honk, no bells to ring: No license-buying every year. With plates to screw on front and rear. No spark to miss: no gears to strip? You start yourself: no clutch to slip: No gas bills, mounting every day To steal the joy of life away. Your inner-tubes are all O. K.. And. thank the Lord, they stay that way. Your spark plugs never miss or fuss: Your motor never makes me cuss. Your frame is good for many a mile: Your body never changes style. Your wants are few and easily met. You've something on the auto yet! -Irma Reed. '32. Page 81 agr 8 SCHOOL I never liked to go to school Till I spent a week in bed With a cough down in my middle And a pain up in my head.

I miss the boys and teachers Tho they scold and holler some Yet compared to taking medicine They are sure a lot of fun.

This year's basket ball team was probably the best team Coach Drew has turned out. and the hardest fighting. hardest playing and most successful basketball team that has ever worn the Orange and Black for Keene High. Under the leadership of Capt. Humphreys the team played seventeen games and lost but four. On the strength of this record. Keene High School was invited to send their team to the State Tournament at Durham. ln their game with Berlin, one of the strongest teams in the Slate. Keene won by staging a last minute rally. scoring nineteen points in seven minutes. Due to their hard work in this game our team lost their next game to Nashua. Capt. Danny Humphreys and lfred Tighe are the only men who will be lost through graduation. We wish and expect that Capt.-Elect Art I.aurent and his team will have as successful a team as that of l929-1930. The scores of the games were as follows:- K. H, S.-46 Walpole--13 K. H.
