Ou the Seniors (XN, RADUATION from the High School marks a distinct change in life. It may well be an occasion for you to Panee and have an interview with your real self. You are in search of happiness. Of course you want true happiness. How do you plan to win it? What is your outlook on life ? There are some men who seem to think that the world centers in them. Their only thought is to draw in as much of the world as possible for their own gratification and profit; and these men are not found solely in the class of those who hold wealth and power; there is many a man working for four dollars _.a day who does not think once, from morning till night, of any one’s interests but his own. The question, ‘‘What can I get out of the world ?’’ is one that every man ought to ask himself, and the character ‘of the man will be shown by the nature of his answer to the question. If that answer can be measured in dollars and cents, in houses and lands, in power or wealth, —in terms of personal grati- fication, then that man has failed to ap- prehend the very essentials of true living. Indeed, the only way to answer the question wisely is to turnit around and ask, ‘‘What can I give the world? for it is not the man who is continually drawing things in to himself, but the man who is continually drawing him- self out for the benefit of others, that finds the truest happiness the world can give. Be not over-troubled by the evilof the world. There are always bad men, but there are more good men. You will find whichever class you seek for. Two children in a country home went into the garden to play. Soon they came running back, and the first one cried, ‘‘O, mother, the rosebush is all full of thorns;’’ but the second cried, ‘O, mother, the thornbush is all full of roses.’’ Witha world full of roses, why should any man con- centrate his attention on the thorns ? What part do you assign, in your scheme of life, to the inner man, the spiritual and mental being, of which your body is simply the habitation ? Any scheme of life which leaves out the inner man, any line of conduct which dwarfs your spiritual growth, any pur- suit which is not consistent with mental development and_ spiritual purity,—any of these things will prevent your getting the greatest happiness out of life. You may not attain wealth, you may never have power, you may fail to win what the world calls success; sorrow and trouble may camp down with you night and day; but if you keep your inner life bright, if you pre- serve integrity of conduct and purity of soul, if you look at life asan opportunity to express all that is best and purest within you, by your acts of helpfulness and thoughtfulness, by your devotion to the interests of others, — then, in spite of all these other things, you will attain true happiness. As I passed down the street one evening, a delightful fragrance was wafted to me on the evening air from some unseen flower. I paused to enjoy it. I knew not whence it came, but when I passed on, my face was brighter and my step lighter because of its ministration. So, as we pass along the walks of life, we experience helping, inspiring, uplifting influences whose source we may not recog- nize. The life that produces them may be humble and simple, but it sheds spiritual fragrance all around, giving tone and vigor, sweetness and helpfulness to the circle within its influence. The man who creates it may never receive recognition from his fellows, but he knows no sense of loss. __He lives not to win the plaudits of the crowd. He works for the joy of accomplishment, for the satis- faction of getting worthy things done. He smiles on the world and the world smiles back. May you each one make your life so full of the happiness that comes from true accom- plishment and humble faithfulness to ideals, that it will overflow and, like the flower, fill with fragrance all the air around. HENRY M. MAXSON Class Porm i j HERE’S a song that sometimes calls, That calls for you and me; The call of friendship, call of love, The call of constancy. II Four years ago we heard that song, Its melody we found; Inspiring notes re-echoed long, ‘Hight well, and hold your ground!’’ Mal Young Freshmen irresponsible, We started in our course; As Sophomores irrepressible, High standing showed our force. IV As Juniors irresistible, We learned the joy of fame; Now, Seniors, irreproachable We’ve finished out the game. Vv Through these four years that song we’ ve heard, It’s stirred through many a mind; It’s whispered but a single word: Duty! to all mankind.

We must be pardoned, therefore, if we do not seem to relegate our dramatic productions to what more ancient critics might demand as their ‘‘proper insig- nificance.’’ We have heard of Cyrano and how with it there came an actor, but we have seen W. S. Gilbert’s, Pygmalion and Galatea and how with it there came an actress. The play is a dramatization of the old Greek myth from a modern viewpoint, the life and humor of which cannot well be gathered sim- ply from the reading of it. It must be seen, even as must Romeo and Juliet, before the moving dramatic action can be appreciated. A heroine is needed who is at the same time a very natural and careful actress. The wondering Galatea, newly introduced into the world, must carry thru scenes of such infinitely delicate humor and absolutely inno- cent love making, that an actress who can lose her own personality and assume that of Galatea with her chiton is the only one who can uphold the part and make the play a success. Helen MacDonald proved herself to be such an actress indeed. She had already been successful as ‘‘Virgie’’ in the Third Generation and Pygmalion and Galatea was the ‘‘consummation of her art.’’ Ronald Hamley, as Pygmalion, revealed a considerable talent in the part of the es- tranged hero and Tommy LaVie, as the shrewish and burly Daphne, was a veritable Dame Van Winkle. Her part could not have been better played. Hervey Kesselring was Chrysos, for nature seemed to have endowed him especially to take the part and bestowed him upon the class of ’23 to be the humorous art patron. The supporting cast, with careful effort, rounded out the play and contributed greatly to make it the artistic success it truly was. The presentation of this play by the class of ’23 marked the beginning of the return to the American Stage of plays of superior merit. It was in April, 1922, when Pygmalion was given. In the fall of the same year came Barrymore’s Hamlet, which was quickly fol- lowed in 1923 by the Merchant of Venice, Romeo and Juliet, Peer Gynt, the plays of the Moscow Art Theater, and a number of others including the Admirable Crichton. How- ever, it remained for us to start things going in the right direction.

The Third Generation was written by those of the class of 1923 in Miss Gilbert’s Junior English Class. The entire class contributed to it and took part in it, but it was the work chiefly of Dick Fullerton, John Roll, Herbert Hooker, George Stevens, and Horace Cody, with the inspiration and advice of M iss Gilbert herself. The play presents college life, bringing out the lighter side by a number of humorous incidents although the main theme treats more of the serious business of college and the moral of it is contained in the old proverb ‘‘Honesty is the best policy.’’ The cast comprised practically all of the class, with John Roll as hero, and Dick Fullerton as villain. Helen Mac Donald, as the heroine, (the first appearance of this now justly famed actress) Helen McEniry, and Hazel McVoy had the only three girls’ parts. The entire play was run off so well under the coaching of Miss LeFevre and the man- agement of George Stevens that it was a great popular success, and one of the most noted feats accomplished by twenty-three. Che Admirahle Crirhtan The reputation, which the class of 1923 gained in the Junior play, was fully justified by the Senior production. After much dis- one of Sir James Barries’s most famous and most delightful comedies. the James Jack, who was chosen to take SCENE FROM THE ADMIRABLE CRICHTON cussion and careful consideration, the play committee chose the Admirable Crichton, leading role, played to perfection the part of the aristocratic English butler. His dignified bearing and adaptability to all situations made us feel the true heroism of the character of Crichton. Helen MacDonald, who had displayed un- usual talent in the Junior play, captivated the audience by her beauty and her ability to play appealingly a difficult part. Florence McEniry, as Tweeney, gave us a fine idea of the wistfulness and pathos of the little kitchen-maid, and splendidly portrayed this pathetic and dramatic character. The part of the Hon, Ernest Wooley seemed to have been created especially for Harold Gulberg. Ernest introduced the lighter ele- ment of the play and by his naturalness gave the audience abundant chances for laughs. No English play is complete without its dudes, and John Roll, as the snobish young Lord Brocklehurst, with his monocle and ac- cent, was inimitable. Walter Sauer, despite his somewhat small stature, made a most aristocratic English peer, whose main hobby was ‘‘equality.’’ His daughters were Lady Mary (Helen McDonald, of whom we have already spoken) and the Ladies Agatha and Catherine, played respec- tively by Dorothy Schley and Gemimi Har- rison. There were many minor characters who helped to make the play a success. Yes, indeed, it was a success and has won the reputation of being the finest Senior Play presented by P. H. S. —— 1s Che Behating Cerams rium to expose their private know- ledge and secret beliefs about the coal situation. Those chosen were as follows: - Affirmative Team: Manning Voorhis, Capt. ; ‘ . N THE day of the tryouts the contest- @ ants filed one by one into the audito- Affirmative Debating Team. Constance Riley; Herbert M. Hooker; and Herbert R. Little, Alternate. Negative Team: Helen McEniry, Capt.; J. Ronald Hamley, Roger Hallert, and James B. Jack, Alternate. Miss Lounsbury was coach of the Negative team and Miss LeFevre of the Affirmative and a great deal of credit is due their efforts to turn out successful teams. The question for debate was: Resolved, — That the United States Government should own and operate the coal industry. In the practice debate which was held between the two teams, the word industry was interpreted to mean only the mining of coal, as was it also understood in the Westfield-Plainfield debate. In the Morristown-Plainfield debate it was understood to include all phases of the industry up to and including the delivery of coal to the ultimate consumer. At the invitation of Plainfield, the teams of Morristown and Westfield met our teams in the high school and the several opposing teams of the triangular league of Westfield, Morristown, and Plainfield decided upon their various admissions and definitions. The two Plainfield teams from then on did some inten- sive training which included a morning spent in reading dozens of ponderous tomes in the New York Public Library. A practice debate was held between the two teams in which Miss Brown, Miss Lockwood, and Mr. Burdick acted as judges. The decision was in favor of the Negative by a vote of two to one. On the evening of March ninth the Affirma- tive team defeated Westfield’s Negative by a vote of three to nothing. The Plainfield team came thru with a complete venimus, vidimus, vicimus, altho their opponents fought nobly ““to the last syllable of (their) recorded time.”’ The judges were Attorney James C. Connolly, Principal F. E. Pierce of Battin High School, and Dr. A. L. Johnson, County School Super- intendent. Music was furnished by the P. H. S. Orchestra. The Negative team journeyed to Morris- town where they were entertained at supper by the members of Morristown’s Af firmative team. There was staged the most exciting debate of the three. Under the particularly brilliant leadership of Helen McEniry, the captain, Plainfield’s team won a sweeping victory, the vote being three to nothing is Negative Debating Team their favor. The teams of nineteen twenty- three have set a record for the debater of the future, a record that, in the case of the Negative team at least, it will be hard to equal. The season of 1922-23 has been marked by a much more general interest in sports as a whole and the development of a wider variety of athletic activities. The large number of candidates out for football in the Fall made possible the formation of a quick and skillful eleven of regulars and a reserve team playing a regular schedule. The class teams, partly filled from the reserve players and partly from other candidates, met in a number of scrimmages. The football season was highly successful for P. H. S., except for the unfortunate acci- dent to Ellis Galloway during the Battin game. In basketball and baseball the P.H.S. teams proved. themselves to be somewhat better : IY Y % — WZ) A “4 I BIKA Va Fea — v, (GS SU 2 ds fi at gaining ‘‘moral victories’? rather than material triumphs. Although neither on the court nor the diamond did the teams win many garlands, they have distinguished them- selves for good, loyal playing, and the school’s support of these sports has been far greater than usual. Soccer, a new sport in P. H. S., made quite a “‘hit’’ among Plainfield athletes. .Mr. Hauck, who was a soccer player himself in his youth, coached the fellows and succeeded in making soccer one of the chief minor sports. Many fellows who were not heavy enough to make the Rugby team made good at soccer. The introduction of this new game aided greatly in making athletics of more general interest. Football Squad 1923 The swimming and tennis teams have made good records this year. The former, under Capt. Ted Leuerssen, has demonstrated the advantage of a good navy, bringing home the laurels in three successful meets, losing in only one. The tennis stars have only lost one match (to Westfield) and won all the others by excellent scores. Track has also had a big year, winning hon- ors in almost all events and capturing the prizes for the city championship. Crew is about the only activity which it re- mains for Plainfield to try, for the girls have kept up a lively interest in their basketball and hockey. When Green Brook Park is com- pleted, who knows but what crew races will also be added to Plainfield’s list of sports? Here’s a cheer for the teams of ’23, and good luck for ’24. FOOTBALL SQUAD On this year’s varsity team were ten letter men, Captain Davidson, Ellis Galloway, Arthur Van Pelt, Robert Bremble, Walter Schoonmaker, John Roll, Gerald Hight, Jacob Kunzman, Edgar Vail and Otto Sanfilippo. Gene Geary, Albert Walker, Garvin Von Doren, George O. Stevens, Jr., and Augustus Drier, manager, won their letters this year. Reserve letters were awarded to Ned Rabi- nowitz, Alfred Bremble, Jacob Rabinowitz, Romano, Jack Case, Lewis, Kline, Guttridge, Snowden, Goodwin, Robert Adams, Legge, Walter Hetfield, Maguire, and Kochen. The Plainfield team defeated Orange, Sum- mit, Trenton, New Brunswick, and Westfield. It was held to a scoreless tie by Montclair and defeated by Battin in the last game of the year, in which Galloway was hurt. Games with Bloomfield and Phillipsburg were can- celled at once when Galloway’s condition was learned. The Reserves defeated the Summit and Westfield second teams, but lost to the Bound Brook Varsity. The usual lineups were: Ends —Roll, San- filippo, Walker, Snowden; Tackles— Bremble, Schoonmaker; Guards—Kunzman, Case, Van Doren, Geary; Centers— Davidson, Kline; Quarters—Galloway, Vail; Halfs—Vail, Hight, Stevens, Legge; Fulls—Von Pelt, Legge. Coach—Mr. Stine. BASKET BALL SQUAD The letter men starting this year were: ProrRGurier, Basketball Squad 1923 Van Pelt, Sheppard, and Snowden, Captain. The entire squad was composed of the three letter men above, Budenbach, Cottrell, Drier, Davidson, Dunn, Franck, Fort, Greenwood, Howell, Kunzman, Maguire, Sanfilippo, Schoonmaker, Van Doren, and Walker. Of those Schoonmaker, Franck, Davidson, Green- wood, Kunzman, Walker, and Gullberg (man- ager) won their letters. | The Plainfield team won its games against Summit, New Brunswick, Morristown (both games) Nutley, Somerville, Westfield and lost to Battin (both games) Central, Glen Ridge (both games) North Plainfield (both games) New Brunswick (second game) Montclair, Westfield (second game) Rutgers and Prep. Wesleyan defeated all the other College League teams by a considerable margin. Faculty beat the Seniors unmercifully 50-22. Coaches—Mr. Cook and Mr. Davis. BASEBALL SQUAD The Squad this year was composed of Gal- loway, captain; Solomon acting captain; Da- vidson, Strandberg, Nichuck, Greenwood, Luria, Naidorff, Walker, Franck, Bouton, Kline, Russell, Hight, Capgar, Smith, Good- win, and Hetfield. Of these Solomon, David- son, Strandberg, Nichuck, Greenwood, Luria, Naidorff, Walker, Franck, Bouton and Saver, manager, won their letters. The record for this year’s team does not look so brilliant on paper, but considering that the team was composed almost entirely of new men it is not as bad a record as it might seem. The games against Somerville, New Brunswick, Westfield, and East Orange went in our favor, but we lost to Battin (both games) North Plainfield (both games) Mont- clair, Westfield, Morristown (both games) Trenton and St. Benedict’s. The Senior-Faculty game was won by the Faculty in five innings, 10—3. Coach—Mr. Stine. TRACK The track team has just passed through a most satisfactory season, although they did not come out on top in every meet. The schedule this year included five meets. Before the varsity season opened an inter- class meet was held at Parker Field in which the class of ’24 scored seventy-two points which gave them first place. This was the first meet of its kind held jin the history of track in this school. Baseball Squad The first varsity meet, a quadrangle meet including the teams of Westfield, North Plain- field, Somerville, and Plainfield was a triumph for P. H.S. The team scored 334 against Westfield’s 18, which ran _ second, North Plainfield and Somerville securing 38rd and 4th places respectively. On May 16, Battin ran first with 46 points in a dual meet with P. H. S. The absence of ‘“‘Son’’ Hetfield was a drawback to our team. On May 26 the Rotary Club of this city ran its first annual track and field meet. In this meet P. H. S. brought home the honors and two cups. The team entered the invitation meet given by New Brunswick H. 8S. on May 29 at Nelson Field and won two places. At this meet there were ten teams entered. At the State meet we did not place. During this season ten fellows qualified for the varsity letter. Walter Hetfield, Townley Carr, Otto Sanflippo and Bob Bremble were letter men last year and repeated their activ- ity this year.

For the friends that are so near, For our Alma Mater dear, For good old P. H. S. For the profs. and all the rest. CHORUS: Oh, we’re the seniors, the seniors, ° The Class of ’238 This evening we will try to enter- tain thee With song and dance and cheer, To merry hearts so dear, The stage of Russia we will show you, Our class history we will tell you! Oh freshies, oh sophomores, and oh you juniors, too. Our careers you should carefully watch, you’ll see The blue and gray will float so high, That it will nearly touch the sky, The banner of our class of ’23. Tune:— Toot— Toot— Tootsie— Goodbye Our days of school have been sublime A glorious happy time Three cheers for good oldblue and gray Altho’ we’re leaving, you will find That you arein our hearts to stay—so CHORUS Good bye High School, good bye We say it with a sigh Altho’ our hearts are breaking We must now our leave be taking So good bye, students, good bye And good bye faculty, too Thru four long years We’ve been the faculty dears But now you see the world is calling And we must go. 2ND CHORUS Good bye forever—good bye forever So good bye P. H. S.—good bye We’re all leaving you now. Our years have now drawn to a close, Our days of school are o’er, One last big cheer for P. H. S., Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors, —all Listen to this sad refrain—so— CHORUS Class Gistories WAY back in 1919 we entered upon our career as students of the Plainfield High School. We were very self- conscious, due to the efforts of the editors of the Oracle to make us seem pain- fully stupid. They did this in a spirit of revenge, because some of our Freshman boys insisted upon rushing upper class girls. The upper class men were awfully jealous. But we were proud and self-conscious in another way when the October Oracle was dedicated exclusively to us and when we were given a reception by our friendly enemies, the upper class men. Our class of ’23 began early its record for scholastic and athletic attainment. In our Freshman year our honor roll exceeded in length that of any other class and many of our number took prizes. We contributed men to the football, baseball and track squads and our girls basketball team defeated the Sophomores badly. We also gave the Seniors a hard fight-for their victory. At the end of that year we found that, in spite of our ‘‘greenness,’’ our studies and experiences had fitted us to become an equally worthy class of Sophomores. SOPHOMORE As Sophomores we were considered irre- sponsible by the upper classmen. Our boys continued to rush the upper class girls and the upper class men continued to be jealous. But one thing to our honor, we contributed greatly to the athletic teams. Then in De- cember we set off the big bomb which aston- ished the entire school, viz., the Sophomore Dance. Then, in the spring, the school fund was desperately in need of replenishing. To show our spirit we undertook the initial step, the other classes following. Under our com- bined efforts we gave a musical concert, one that was greatly appreciated by those present and one which replenished our treasurv to some extent. � | In June, we were happy. No longer were we the irresponsible Sophs, but the irresisti- ble Juniors. JUNIOR As Juniors we prospered greatly. Around Christmas the Seniors succeeded in winning the cane rush. but they were not so successful in the roast. In April a Tea Dance, the first given in High School, proved a very successful and interesting affair. During this year, a Patrol System was pro- posed, and after a long discussion was passed. For our Junior Play we consulted the Oracle of Greece and finally chose W. 8S. Gilbert’s ‘‘Pygmalion and Galatea,’’ the delightful comedy of Grecian life. In basketball the girls were very successful. For the second time they defeated their op- ponents. Thus as J uniors, we added another page to the remarkable history of the class of 723. SENIOR The most important year for the class of 1923 was probably as the Senior Class. There was more to be accomplished and more to be gained, In the first part of the year during football season ‘‘Pints’’ Galloway was seriously in- jured. This accident was felt deeply by the whole school, but probably none felt it more than the Seniors because he is one of us. All our efforts during the past year have been for him. The Freshmen Reception was the first social event of the year. This was taken care of by the Seniors, although the whole school did their best to make the Freshmen feel at home. Just before the Christmas vacation the Ju- nior and Senior boys held their Annual ‘“‘Cane Rush.’’ The Seniors, as usual, were victorious. Then the Christmas exercises, consisting of Junior and Senior roast and feed, were held. The Seniors roasted the Ju- niors and afterwards ate at the expense of the younger class. : The Senior Dance was held in January with greet succes s. ‘“The Admirable Crich- ton’’ by Barrie was the ambitious undertak- ing for the Senior Play, which was ably pre- sented. Baby Day concluded the events of the season with the exception of Class Day and commencement, the bright lights of the year. Here’s hoping the next class will enjoy their four years as we have. MARSHALL ACKEN. The poor boy will marry his radio and settle down to bathe in ether waves. ANITA ADAMS. Anita is our idea of a ““Gibson’”’ girl but Field (Buttfield) the artist had hardly done (Dunn) painting her portrait before she became a ‘‘ Walker’’ and refused to sit for another painting. FLORENCE ALBERT: In the future we shall see Florence Albert by the sea. For her to part, it may be hard, But Scotch Plains loses to DeHard RosE ALBERT. Rose will not always re- main in Scotch Plains. No rose was made to blush unseen, you know. If you ‘‘ Russell’’ round you’ll know why. GERTRUDE AYER. Gertrude was very clever in school and always Ran (d) off (olph) with all the highest marks that were ever given in the Classical Department. Never- theless, it has always been her regret that she did not pursue the Scientifle course in order to have Mr. ‘‘ Hubbard’’ as an in- structor. ELIZABETH ALTHOEN. Elizabeth will be- come a fortune teller of great renown. She will predict the future of P. H. S. and keep it out of trouble after she leaves. EVERETT AYERS. Everett will live a quiet life on Center Street in Dunellen, spending his time in training his moustache and his Ford. RuTH Bascock. Bound Brook will sit up and take notice when Ruth becomes the leader of Hoffman’s Orchestra. In her leisure time Ruth will write a book entitled. ‘‘China and its Charms.’’ HELEN Bices. When Helen comes home from Europe, she will play ‘‘Jacks’’ on the ‘‘Doc’’ with ‘‘Russel’’ until ‘‘Allen’’ meets her in New York, and takes her to ‘‘Bam- bergers. ”’ ROBERT BREMBLE. In the future Bob will be quite ‘‘Ruth’’less with his home ‘‘Foulks’’ because they don’t write to this football star often enough. GIBSON BUTTFIELD. Gib will be heard in future years crying ‘‘Oh need a “‘sisstence in studying, ‘‘Adam’s History of Plain- field.” He will take a course in how to stop blushing at some famous school, probably SaVV OFLO Saw ABRAM BLOOM. Abe is going to Cooper Union when he finishes school and become an engineer. He will then invent a contrivance by which we can tell how many times we wink our eyes a day. EPHRAIM BLOOM. Eph will accompany his brother to the same college and take up the same profession. The two brothers will then form the corporation Bloom and Bloom, Engineers and Hodcarriers. REGINA BRENNAN. Regina is going to Saint Elizabeth but her interest will really lie in ‘‘Keely’’ town and at Yale. FLORENCE BEEKMAN. As Private Secre- tary Florence will prove an attraction to a steel magnate. DorRoTHY BIRD will go to Colombia where she will graduate with all the highest honors. After that she will become an artist and will dictate to the world the proper length for skirts and sleeves. JEAN COTTRELL. A songstress rare is Jean. She’ll charm both faculty and scholars at Alfred University before she goes to Europe in the footsteps of Jenny Lind. She will have a matrimonial career of happiness. Think how convenient it will be not to have to change her initials if she marries ‘‘J. C.’’ ALLICE COURAIN. N. J. C. the Ouija spells, And we can plainly see The truth that Ouija always tells, A teacher she will be. HENRIETTA CLARKSON. typewriting in a bank When an old time friend hill mail her. And ‘‘Earnest’’ly he will follow her up; For the black ‘‘Smith’’ ’Il need her help. But she will sing a ‘‘Car(o)].’’ And then he’ll throw some ‘‘lead ather’’ (Lederer. ) JOHM CLISSOLD In days to come John will be a famous agriculturist. He will have caught real (Cottrell) success in Rutgers and we all hope that his ‘‘Jeans’’ are of a bright and happy color to keep him in good spirits. Our Etts’ll be MARGARET CAMERFORD. Marget will open an ice cream garden which will be greatly patronized by members of the class. HOWARD DayTon. In the business world Howard willbe a ‘‘Big’’ success, for Howard also comes from Dunellen where they are born railroad men. MILDRED DECKER. As long as there is a mooolight Wednesday night, Mildred Decker and Perey Giddes will be filled with delight. If the stars twinkle through the old oak tree, They’ll be as happy as two youths can be. ALVIN DuNN. After McEnery’s, one and two, Hetfield, Stuart, Vail, and Adams, is Alvin Dunn? Quite right, he’s not, for after becoming sales manager at Miller’s he will doubtless settle down on Watchung Avenue near the Crescent Avenue Church. LUCILLE DELVIN. After Lucille has made a name for herself as the champion woman rider of New Jersey, she will settle down to married life in Cranford where she will de- monstrate to her friends ‘‘how to be flirta- tious though married.’’ KATHERIYNE FOuULKS. If you ever ask Pussy if she likes sweet things, she’ll answer “Oh, just gobs;— She will always keep her easy going dis- position and although she may marry a man who has been schooled in warfare, her matrimonial career will ever be peaceful, HELEN FABER. Primness and modesty are virtues hand to choose, Tho’ they gain you not a fortune, they will nothing let you lose. BILL FEIL. Bill will take a ride on a trolley car but the conductor will say, ‘‘Git’’ hoff ‘‘man,’’ ‘‘this is as far as we go.’’ RuTH FouLkKs Ruth will have gained so much knowledge by the time she’s out of college, that she will have become a ‘‘seer’’ (Sears) and will take up her headquarters at West Point where she will be head instructor in hi ‘‘King’’ ISABEL GEARY. Modest, shy little Isabel will some day grow up and will make some’s life by her sweet gentle ways. DOROTHY GULICK. “Dot’’ will go to Barcelona where she will go in training to become a Spanish dancer. GEORGE C. FETHERSTON. George, our hand- some president at college will be the ‘‘Katz.’’ He will return to Plainfield and go into the millin’ (Milne) business eating at Hellstrom’s. At the ripe old age of ninety eight he will meet a sudden death at the hands of a horse car. J. Ronatp HAMLeEy. Next fall Ron. will go to the University of Pennsylvania and take up a course in Finance. He will also study intensively “McEniry’s Law of Management” to determine whether or not a girl with red hair can make a good manager for both busi- ness and home. MADELINE HANSEN. Madeline is shy, but you know how the shy ones will surprise you. MyrtLeE HARRELL. Although in Typewriting and Sten. She cannot make her speed, As a proposer in Leap Year She sure will take the lead. CorrRINE HELLStTROM. Corrine’s disposition will not sour (Sauer) after she graduates, for she can be knocked over by a “feather” or a “stone” (Fetherston). Daisy Hite. Daisy will receive a beautiful sonnet from a certain gentleman in Morris- town. The title will be “To a Mountain Daisy.” MitprepD HorrMan. Mildred will become “Savage” continuing her secretarial course while doing filing (Feil) for the “Davis” Bak- ing Powder Company. RutH HorrMaANn. Ruth Hoffman, that good- natured girl, will never trouble trouble till trouble troubles her—then she’ll trouble you. HERBERT M. Hooker. Herb, the last remain- ing Senior to retain possession of a key to the Oracle Room, will complete four splashing years of. canoeing on Paradise Lake while at Amherst. He will distinguish himself as Ed- itor of “Lord Jeff” and later settle down in the old home town with a little Irish lass called “T weeny.” Evste Hunter. After carrying off many of the honors at Mt. Holyoke, Elsie will return to Plainfield and will be captain of the Hope Chapel basketball team. ' Frep Hunt. Fred, after proving his ability in the Plainfield department, will be summoned to the Postmastership of Oak Tree, as the office has been raided so often that it is neces- sary to have a good husky man there. KENNETH HOoUSEMAN. Ken will one day be a high executive in the A. P. chain stores, where he will fix “Prices.” GEMINI Harrison. Gemini will go to Mont- clair and will specialize in interior decorating of “Holmes,” but her “Bills” will be rather high. VioLet Hunt. We are assured that in the world of business Violet will find her sphere. DorotHy Hanson. Gentle little Dorothy will graduate from Smith and will open a school to teach girls the art of cultivating a soft voice. ELIZABETH JENKINS. After graduating from several of the finest medical schools, Elizabeth will become a very skilled surgeon. The crowning glory of her career will come when she saves, through her surgery, the life of a charming young man who fell over a “Cliff” in a “Ford” on Watson’s Mountains. James B. Jack. He will make a grand head waiter, and for Mildred his butling will be fine when he’s not working on the beach as Shorman. FLORENCE KELLEY will graduate from C. C. I. and “hand in again” (Hannigan) her diploma in exchange for a license which will “nigh chuck” (Nichuck) her into matrimony. Marion Kring. I can see Marion in the future using her art of making people love her. She broke the heart of Lu, but I sin- cerely hope she won’t break that of Walter. I know she won't. JEANNETTE LynNcH. Jeannette will become a doctor, and while she is practising she will have one eye out of the window looking for a ride gack to her office. “James,” her chauf- feur, will have to “Jack” the car up often. THEODORE LEUERSSEN. Ted will break all records on his college swimming team, Of this “Inis” will be proud as a “Peacock.” Maypa Larew. Mayda and Tommy will enter the circus as the lightweight twins and will demonstrate to the world the art of keep- ing good-natured. Hazet McVoy. Hazel was under wood (Underwood) at Lehigh, but Whit’s ford (Whitford) stopped that. In Case she must go to Rutgers she will get an auto (Otto) to take her. Harrier Mirne. Harriet may move to Princeton and become a professional “Walker” or a “Sheppard.” In any “Case,” she will be seen running over hill and “Vail” chasing a little ‘“Fether.” AuGustaA MacAuLay. Augusta will travel much, looking for stenographic contests to win, and in the end she will take the “Fancher” prize and settle in “Christopher.” HELEN MacDonatp. Mac will visit all the large cities as the heroine in Blossom Time. After a great success as an actress she will “Roll” home to Plainfield and her friends. FLorENCE McEntry. After Florence is “Dunn” at college she will take up dancing at “Waglow” Institute, and will teach the “Art” to all who have the “Jack.” HeLten McEniry. Brilliant little Helen will become a very successful lawyer and will de- fend the “Cotton” brokers quite skilfully un- til a well known Dunellen “Ham” company tries to “Hooker” up with their establishment. At that time Helen must decide for herself what course she will follow. LUCILLE NEIGHBOUR. If blushes were riches, Lucille wouldn’t be poor; We wonder if she blushes When she meets Bill at the door. CATHERINE NEWMILLER. Now Catherine goes in swimming away down in the sea, and John will have to fish her (Fisher) out, before ’tis time for tea. Leona Patuso. Leona appears to be very docile, but as soon as she gets out into the jolly, big world she’ll come out of her shell and show her true colors. Columbia Uni- versity has some very likeable chaps, hasn’t it, Leona? RutuH Peacock. After a short time with the firm of “Carl,” “Carlton” Co., manufacturers of “Teddy” bears, Ruth will become a florist. Her first efforts along this line will be spent on Sweet “Williams,” but finally she will trans- fer her interests to “Lou’-pine. VioLtA Pawson. Viola is going to Mont- clair and will later teach arithmetic. She will take great pleasure in teaching her students how to make out “Bills.” LEOLA QUARTERMAN. We are sure that Leola will forge rapidly ahead in the field of learning which she has chosen and so suc- cessfully maintained. Jacop RaApinowirz. After graduating, Jake will write music, rivaling Dick Fullerton and Irving Berlin. He will continue as drummer in the Liberty Band unto a ripe old age. JANE Roserson. After amny adventures in the slums of New York, Jane will be reduced to running a “Bus.” She will make a pretty little housewife in white ‘“Lynn”-in and always “Wil” “sun” shine on her face. Reon Roperts. We wonder what “Reon Roberts” will do when he leaves P. H. S. He has good intentions of going to college next year. He will have a good time with Mar- guerite in the summer, but when September comes and Marguerite is left alone, she will have Fitts. Max Reiss. Max, who knows more of the technicalities of the ring than he does of his studies, will enter the fighting game after he leaves school. And when he comes up against Benny Leonard for the lightweight championship of the world, Max will send all his High School classmates complimentary tickets. Nep RasinowitTz. Ned will become a law- yer, but will find the profession not very profitable. He will then hire out to his brother and carry Jake’s kettle drums around. Davip SCHNEIDER. Although Dave is quite an athlete, we are sure he will gain his repu- tation by his fiddle. HELEN SNEDEKER. Helen specializes not only in her beauty, but also in cooking and keeping house. Rather a happy combination, isn’t it? Joun B. Roti, Johnnie’s hikes through the Watchung Mountains will continue to end at MacDonald’s farm, where, we feel sure, his future lies. Pretty little “Hazel” nut, hanging in a tree, Pretty little “Hazel” nut, won’t you fall for me? EstHER SAuMs. Our dignified friend, Es- ther, will go to Montclair Normal, where she will specialize in English (particularly in in- teresting interpretations of “Dr. Jackel and Mr. Hyde.” Esther will find diversion from her work in “Bobbing” down Martin’s hill. DorotHy ScHLEY. Dorothy, after leaving school, will take up the “Art” of Bacteriology. On her honeymoon she will ride around in a “Van” and “Pelt” the country folk with in- formation on germs. LILLIAN SCHENCK. When asked what she was going to do when she left school, Lillian first threw off her hat and drew (Andrew) off her gloves, then answered, “Oh, I’m going to be an old maid. I’ll still be paddling my own canoe at forty.” We doubt it. WALTER SCHOONMAKER. “Schoony” will be boosted by the dry party for Mayor of Somer- ville, but “Watton” earth will become of him if he lingers on Washington Avenue we don’t dare to guess. GrEoRGE O. STEVENS, JR. Buddy will become manager of the ‘“Medbury” Minstrel Troupe and will buy a bungalow “Anna” flivver. ART STRANDBERG. Art will soon become tired of drafting and will accept a position with the Yanks, where we “Betty” ’ll make good. Harriet TERRY will drive her car so fast that some day she'll bust her (Buster” head- lights, for she always turns to admire lovely lace (Lovelace). Howarp Terry. Our little Howard will some day travel. When he does, he’ll sit all day dreaming on the deck or “Decker) elise make eyes at the young lady passengers, espe- cially those named Mildred. Marion WEBER. Oh! what a whirl she'll be in. Poor girl, her Mack Truck will be stolen | by Roberts in the night. LupoLPH WELANETZ. After graduating from Cornell, Ludolph will specialize in farming, but he will find this tiresome and so will take up fishing. He will spend his time on Putnam Avenue near the brook trying to catch the craw (Lecraw) fish that he may see. We wish him luck! MANFRED WESTERGARD. Manfred, the hard- working boy, will continue his labors at a medical college, and then become chief sur- geon on some canal barge. Amy WiutiAms. This very sedate young girl will most likely become a kindergarten teacher. The children will torment her so that she’ll need a vacation. She will probably decide to go to some high “Cliff” so that she can overlook “Harrison.” AusTIN Witson. Austin has already quite a wit. But as soon as he can buy a Ford, twill then indeed by Whitford. JANE WortH. When Jane finishes school, we expect she'll take up art and study “Roy”-al colors. ALBERT WALKER. We hoped to see Al be- come either a Ford mechanic or a farmer, but we know that he will be a “Carpenter” and a ranch owner. However, after his cattle get millin (Milne) around a few times he will send for a girl who will be a neat (Anita) assistant. =) SOF EK, the most loyal and incorrigible Class of 1923, progressive and per- spicacious, as we admit ourselves to be, being perfectly safe, sane, and sober, do hereby declare this our Last Will and Testament and do hereby, in all equity, bequeath our effects, rights, and privileges to those misguided and hopeless people who will follow in our footsteps to____ graduation.

ANTHONY Miss CLEME BREMBLE “HAPPINESS IN EVERY JOB” qe easiest, quickest and least expensive way to secure a good position is through the Commercial Employment and Service Bureau, Inc. We have hundreds of good positions to select from. You do not have to waste carfare, time and energy to investigate a lot of positions that you would not have. You know before you even go to see about a position if it is a posi- tion you want. We tell you all about it, what kind of people they are to work for, what kind of an office, the working conditions in the office, salary it pays and the opportunities for advancement. You cover ten to fifteen po- sitions in a fifteen or twenty-minute interview with us. We do not argue that you cannot secure a position for yourself. Any- body can do that. We do contend that we can secure you a better position because that is our business. We do know this, and you know it also, that a good position is worth any amount of money.
