' Daily she remembers her most important deed, ' And exercises love to all regardless of their creed. How much she endures no one really knows. What she feels from deep within her broad smile never shows. No one is aware at the closing of the year Of every little care or of every little tear No one realizes as each student leaves How much it affects her or just how much she grieves. Yet when they have passed by she gives a final look, And turns in tears to write each name In Memory's sacred book. DEDICATIOI TO CLASS OF 1940 By hargaret Lynch As the time for parting nears And scholastic portals close Let there be no sighs nor tears, Rather joy as each one goes, For the road ahead is longer Than the heart can estimateg Tears or sighs won't make us stronger As we go to meet our Fate, So rejoice these last few hours, And dispose of all regrets, Let your smiles shine forth like flowers As the sun of School Days sets.

Determined to get closer to nature, she takes her two companions Vest in a second hand car, but not before Lizzie has wired Tish's young nephew, Charlie Sands telling him of his Aunt's latest idea and advising him as to their destination. Charlie, after flying West, stops at a hotel near the Mexican border. Lizzie and Aggie come limping into the hotel shortly after Charlie's arrival. Where is Tish? When her car broke down, she was determined to repair it when it suddenly started off with her unexpectedly, leaving Aggie and Lizzie alone on the roadside. Tish arrives, after driving through a glass window belonging to Luther Hopkins, across the road. He makes a storming entrance and demands damages, but Tish refuses to pay his anything. When the hotel safe is robbed, Tish is sure that she knows where the stolen money is hidden and drags Aggie out with her to start the search. The result of the searchtis that Tish takes Aggie up in the air of a plane, drops Aggie off on the roof of a barn and then soars upward again. The following day the news paper headlines proclaim that a lone spy has been sighted flying over Mexico and Tish becomes the center of international complicae tions. The grand final comes when Tish captures the bandit and E1len's hotel is saved. ! SENIOR PLAY COFYITTEES Advertising Managers--C. Doucette and V. Cove Assistants--J. Woods, E. Vigeant, J. Gordon.

I wish to talk to you tonight on the sub- ject, Nwhat is Americanism?U , Lincoln difined it as, HA new nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.n He said what was in the minds of the founders of our nation when they drew up the Constitution of the United-States Because of the work done by both Lincoln and the founders of this country we are now living in a country where equal oppor- tunity for success and happiness are bestowed on us. Throughout our history, the rights granted to us under the Constitution have halped keep our nation urified and demo- cratic. During the early weakness of our nation, the attrac- tiveness of these rights gained the supfort of the people to- ward the strengthening of the Union. Our nation was again in a weak condition when the question of slavery caused a split in the Union and a Civil War between the North and the South. The men who fought to preserve the Union did so be- cause they had a strong patriotic belief in a Union which gave them equal rights. Today, when the economic status of the world is unbal- anced these rivhts are like a beacon in the darkness. ln, D 1929, a depression hit us with the force and the disastrous . ,a -ghtning bolt, causing unemployment and the accumulation T large deb's. Because we were at liberty to free ourselves from this istable position, there has been no economic strife like that found n many parts of the world today. There are many elements present in this country which illustrate ir ideals of Americanism. Our government has provided a system of ree education which is both practical and helpful. From high school, student may enter immediately upon his life's work, or he may contin- s his education in the state universities which are open to everyone. Tter the student has been offered an opportunity to learn a practical zcupation, he has a good chance to prove his abilities, there being any openings in most occupations with a good chance for advancement nr those who learn rapidly. Giving everyone an opportunity to show me best he can do is one of the privileges offered to every American. We also have been given equal privileges in personal and civic ntters. Our constitution, whose doctrin is protected by the Supreme nurt, gives us freedom of speech, religion, meeting, and petition. 1 order that the government would not become too greatly centralized md threaten our personal liberties, states rights have been given .most an equal footing to those of federal rights. If any attempt s made to deprive us of our just rights, we may appeal to the courts. ie roof iemocratic part of our government is the privilege of elect- mg our .lic officials by direct vote. In so ion to these privileges we have been given working condi- .ons whicg W more leisure. Our economic system provides shorter :urs of work re time to spend as we desire. Faster transporta- .on facilities h vrtened distances, making travel for business o :creation more pleas Labor-saving machinery has taken the drud- l-I Ll .at apr i , of met tur and of.

There are free museums and libraries for those who wish to Sggud their spare time in reading and study. The high standard of li ing of the people of this country has created a demand for all sorts 2 gf luxuries and various forms of entertainment. This demand has bear . is Emct by recent inventions in such as automobiles, radios, moving pic- gtures, refrigerators, and all sorts of electrical appliances.

A banister of Faith she built to guide me And showedme how to keep it smooth, by Care. She promised too, that she would stay beside me, And at all times of need, I've found her there. But now we've reached the stairpost at the top, A past that marks an intersection wide ' And staring corridors force me to stop For here it is that I am to decide. I pause, the way ahead looks vast I fear at walking it alone. I long to venture to the past And stay'beside her, safe at home. But time the constant ruler calls And sternly points the forward way So in spite of long and barren halls I'm forced to turn and thus obey. Therefore I mean to pause right here At this, life's fairest interlude, And turn to one who is most dear To express my untold gratitude.

Woods Ina Hinxman John Forson yAnn Buzzell THE UNITED STATES: A PRACTICAL SUCCESS Because others have demonstrated the superiority of the American ideal more ably than I could hope to, I will not go into the undeniable loftiness of our spiritual achievements. And because the Constitution very lucidly explains our civic rights and duties, I will not attempt to detail those privi- leges unigue in the world today and in the past. Rather I WOuld like to point out the tremendous advantage of physical comfort that our so-called inefficient democracy has gained us. To take a specific example in the matter of automobiles--without which no American feels himself complete-- we are incredibly richer than citizens of a totalitarian state. Especially since the recent war began, gasoline and cars are g used only by the highest officials. The idea of the average citizen's owning a car as he does in America would seem incred- ible to the average European, even in peace time. I read recent- ly of a group of Nazi tourists in this country who, having seen a factory surrounded by innumberable cars, were unable to believe that the cars belonged to the workers. They expressed the opinion that the cars had been put there solely to impress foreigners! In a like manner consider the matter of the radio--over which we alone can get uncensored news of airplanes of which we are the foremost manufacturers, and of all the products of American in- genuity and inventiveness. , Especially in the matter of food are we more fortunate than others. In the belligerent countries food is strictly rationed. Particularly in Germany the food problem is serious, not because crops are bad, but because in their mad desire for power the Germans change farm products by miracles of chemistry into arma- n U . They cannot reverse L41 wrucezs to get food again, how- :verg and armaments are net edible though they are probably but little worse than ersatz tread made of wood! Even were our standard of living vastly inferior to that of the totalitarian state, which it obviously is notg I would still prefer our form of government for under it we have as- surance of personal safety. No one is inviolate under a dic- tatorship. Pggroms massacre people who dare to have political views other than those expressed by the state, and for those who are not ercifully killed await the medieval tortures of the Modern concentration camp. In our country we are allowed not only the staff of life but even life itself. In the very short space of a century and a half we have developed from a tiny insignificant state to a world power. All of which was accomplished not through the abridgment of our rights, but through the exercising of them--through the individu- al efforts of the citizens--the logical way for progress. We cannot, however, expect all these benefits to be literally thrown into our laps. To enjoy them we must guard them for ourselves and for future generations. I could expand greatly on this topic, for I verge on the fanatical about itg but I must go on to the true purpose of the valedictorian speechu-a most depressing duty to say good-by. I feel that, for once, Shakespeare is wrong--- Parting is not such sweet sorrowiu I don't at all want to leave.

That year, we Sophomores, also became athletically minded and several of our he-men made the football and basketball teams. The girls also helped the field hockey team come through a season unde- feated. But we did not stop at athletics, and decided to take a minor part in acting. We presented a play called HElmerU with Stephen Pilcher as HElmerH and superbly assisted by Jennette Williams, Gloria . . . , Dickenson, Christine Moholitny, Margaret Lynch, Elinor Schacht, Esthen Russell, and Harold Franz. I We also helped to make many of the noises heard from the music department. But from all our noises we took second place at the Mu Festival held at Fall River, Massachusetts. As in our Freshmen year the days flew by, and almost before we 1 . realized, the sunny days of June were once more upon us, and we werf graduated to Juniors. Our motto for the opening of our Junior year was, HCome early 4 get a back seatu but try as we did many of us were obliged to occupy seats under the watchful eyes of the teachers. But this only made u. determined to try harder the next year. As Juniors we were deferential, We new resorted to note writing chattering over dates, and borrowing book reports or last night's homework. Our able officers for the Junior year were: President, Stephen Pilcherg Vice-President, Gloria Dickensdng Secretary, Barbara Turner: and Treasurer, Frederick Horton: They ran several dances which prev very successful. ' V Our Junior year we were able to uphold our athletic standing, U in football, basketball, and field hfckey we were fully convinced h- aicri:1i:u:8Lza.:,a.a.a3-mz34.5..ufnenaie3iiSeii . f that without eil shi 1 1 participating in these sport Tama would be helpless. The dramatic and music department also thrived by the help of or r class. These who took part in the A. A. Play, nCrab Applen Jennette Williams, Gloria Dickenson, and Stephen Pilcher. Tha clubs obtained first place at the Music Festival which was held lmont, Massachusetts. Throughout the year I was pleased to recall the very friendly ng which existed between the two upper classes. This was especial ticeable in the case of several Junior girls and a few of the dis- ished boys of the Senior Class. HBut things will change, whether we like it or nog things wen't for a long while just as they are and no differeneen. How keea felt the truth of this when we ended our Junior year and ther 3 one solitary year left us as members of the Wilmington High 1. It was certainly hard to reconcile ourselves to the fact ti aming September would find us in the position of Udignified sent l 1 Jn our return in the fall we were all conscious of the change had come over us during the stmnwr, although if questioned cone ig it, we probably ceulf net have accounted for it. Life had on a new aspect, and we begar to ihink more seriously of our wer E our future.

Those who participated in boy's basketball were: Stephen Pilcher Joe Woods, and Joe Cavanaugh. The American Legion awarded a medal to Stephen Pilcher in appreciation of the splendid work he did both on the basketball court and in school work. , The girls of nClass of '4OU also will cherish memories. They came through a season of both basketball and of field hockey with highest honors. In field hockey, the girls were again undefeated, making them undefeated for nine years. In basketball the girls took 1 u -- first place in the ULowell Suburdan Leaguen. This is enough to make any school proud of their girls. T Girls who participated in both field hockey and basketball were Gloria Dickenson, Pauline Berrett, Norinne Joyce, Catherine Harrison Capitola Hovey, Hazel Bloomquist, Gladys Babine, Ruth Boynton, Anna Mcrlani, Elinor Schanht, Christine Moholitny, and Beverly Hemeon. Our dramatic talent sprang into being again in our Senior year. Two plays were superbly presented. They were the A.A. Play and the Senior Play. r The A. A. Play, WSpring Dancen was wonderfully suoported by the following of class of '4O: Esther Russell, Anne Buzzell, Stephen Pilcher, Jennette Williams, John Forson, and Gloria Dickenson. On April 25, 1940 the Senior Class presented UTishU, a comedy of elec- trofying results. Anne Buzzell, who played nTishU so magnificently, was nobly supported by Martin Donovan, ElinorwSchacht, Esther Rus- sell, Margaret Lynch, Ruth Cohen, John Forscn, Edith Higginbotham, Frank Ayotte, Jennette Williams, Marion Adams, Fred Horton, and Lawrence Velleco. It is certainly fated that many of our above ao- tors are destined for the top in the theatrical group. 2 3 i I, 1 1 2 Q I . . , . . v M-......................n.-Inm-mnnnnnmann:mullmmllunIEEELiummmumiaewiuwkidwkf - musLc egartment, which consisted of many seniors, received 'AU rating at the Music Festival held at Wellesley, Massachusetts High School Publication, the WAlphan was successfully carried on the following seniors: Hazel Bloomquist, Beverley Hemeon, 'istine Moholitny, and Hennette Williams. , The WMay Day Pageantn, May 29, 1940, in which many Seniors con- .buted their talent, was a great success.

There mus be homework if we are to learn. Others who may have had trouble in school may doubt the ststem of teaching Even some of you who have received exceptionally good marks and who have really nworkedn for those marks may be dissatisfied with the system or the school. But everything combined, I think that most of us will agree that our school is of eminent value. Those of us who have received poor marks in school--those who have whittled away their time or just didn't care to study--nbw'know their mistake for not studying. Those who have received the average marks wish that they had just put a little more effort into their studying. Those who have receive high marks are amply rewarded for their efforts by higher payin positions. There is a much greater number of workers who have studied and received nbetter than the averagen marks in school receiving better wages and holding down better positions than those who have received only average or below average marks. This speaks for itself. Most of you young men and women have probably heard an older person who has long since finished school say, UI Wish 1 were a kid ayain aid back in school. Oooh! those were the wonderful daysln So you young men and women take heed to ' an , -..,Q-..-..,.- , --t....,,...-. ,,,,, these words and study all ji, can. You'll be Well rewarded. Better wages and better positions aren't the only values re ived from school. Let us enumerate some of the others., Of cour there is the endless value of.an education which is neces ary in financeg it is necessary in eommerceg it is necessary in sta istieal workg it is necessary, to a certain extent, in agricultm it is necessary in the merchandise businessg it is necessary in the clothing businessg and it is necessary in ever so many other industries that it would take me all night if I were to enumerate them. Education is of supreme importancev. Another benefit from our school is in the field of sports. The various sports teach the boys and the girls the rules of clf sportsmanship. This contact and meeting of these various pupf these various sports brings out the ability for the pupils to get along better with each other, and is an.imp6rtantt milcste in our great system of Americanism. This is not the only value gained from the field of sport. but the minor one. The principal value is the improvement of health. Outstanding doctors and experts in the field of medici say that exercise is one of the most important means of body building and improving one's health--exercise is chiefly obtain through the indulgence in the various sports. Not only this, br the more he indulges in sports the more he is out in the open, and the more he is out in the open the more air he will receiver The ultimate result is better health. School also brings together different pupils of different races, different standings, and different opinions, grades, and ideas. These contacts Qive each pupil a chance to meet ti different typos and get used to human nature. This is an .oartait building up l L N Hi.c er,-.:,s in the Wusiness world. School also offers certain opportunities to the pupilS. giving them the opportunity to prepare themselves for the future. They have certain duties to performg such as, holding dances, raising Senior Class funds, doing additional work for other teadhers, and so forth. Schools also aid in obtaining employment for some students who may be exceptionally brilliant. Civil Service Examinations a also held which may aid in future employment. Schools give these tests which show the intelligence of the different pupils tO see where they stand with other pupils. All these services may aid or result in giving employment to a very intelligent studen . Free scholarships are offered to certain pupils who are aaove the others in intelligence, and aid greatly in further educatf for others. School is also usually the means of deciding the person's future career. In school he gets a taste ofzall the various fp of industry and he usually makes up his mind in which field he l sires to go further. School also supplies the students and townspeople with onto tainmentg such as baseball, football, basketb.ll, field hockey, dances, guest speacers, and educational movies. In conclusion let us all agree that our school has Qiven us a value--a lasting value!--that could not be obtained in any other way. Let us all say that uOur school is the best in the worldlu 'George Livingston inn gdams 'ink Ayotte Gladys Qahj Bet sy ir oi Pau liif Terrett Hazel floomquist But Q aoynton Anne Puzzell Joesph Cavanaugh Edith Chiefitz Ruth Cohen Virginia Cove Helen Dahlin Frank Dayton Gloria Dickenson Gertrude Downing Norma Fitch Thomas Fleming John Forson Harold Franz ' Elinor schacht Rita Sullivan Ellis swain Donald Tarball Jenny Gordon - H -- -, -nw 71' 111 fTqE Itelonn nnlihw A Lady Needs A Friend Roving Cowboy I Used to Be Color Blind Well All Right ' GOt The Jitters Lovely Lady Come Geraldine in Ny Flying Machine Buzz Buzz Buzz You've GOt to be a Football Hero Taint what You Do Rancho Grande What Have You GOt That Pets Me Wouldn't That I Could Kill Your Hand oh The Sweetheart of Sigma Chi Moonlight ahd Shadows I've Got My Eyes On You Sweet Sue Hi 'O Silver Honest John Sing You Sinners Oh!
