Lightly it is asked and as lightly answered - A rose by any other name would smell as sweet. Far be it from me to dispute with the poet who found tongues in trees, books in running brooksf' the haunting fragrance and the curled loveli- ness of the velvet petals of the rose under another name. But name it rose or weed, yet it Withers and by its bush it soon lies dead. Only the actions of the just smell sweet and blossom in the dustf' and give their names immortal birthf, What's in a name? Let us look down through the orbit of time to the origin of the name Bayley. Back a century ago in 1831, we see a young man entering Amherst College as a Freshman-james Roosevelt Bayley. The years as they pass show him as an Episcopalian minister, a Catholic priest, first Bishop of Newark, founder of Seton Hall College, and Archbishop of Philadelphia. He was a man noble, dignified, gentle, winsomeg attracting by his kindliness the lowliest, twining himself deep into the affections of his compeers and commanding by his virtues, the respect even of those who differed radically from his views. Truly, he too, could say, Of wealth or of glory I shall leave nothing behind me, CI think it, O God, enoughj But my name in the heart of a child. The Mother-house of the Sisters of Charity supported at first al- most entirely by Bishop Bayley, and the Propagation of the Faith were established by him in the diocese of Newark. By an interesting and un- designed coincidence, the Faculty of Bayley High is the Sisters of Charity, and in the diocese of Newark, Bayley High has been and is the Bamzer High School of the C. S. M. C., the student branch of the Propagation of the Faith. Let us now trace the progress of Bayley School through the years. In 1850, we see a line of twenty-five quaintly dressed girls and hardy boys filing into the first Catholic School in Morristown. Then 186 S. The bloody Civil War is over and perhaps a few of Bayley boys lie cold on a battlefield. At the milestone in 1897, we see our present Bayley Grammar School, but oh, how different! Then it stood bare and new on the old burying ground. With each year, we see a gradual change in the sur- roundings. What a turmoil in 1918! The Armistice has been signed. Bayley has done her bit, look at the stars in our banner. In 1924, the first class of graduates goes forth from Bayley High. We glance quickly over the remaining years until we come to 1931. We have behind us the repu- tations and the traditions that have grown to a mighty size through these eighty years. We have been inspired by the deeds of the past to go for- ward to accomplish deeds as great. We have added a little to the length- ening scroll of names which we hope will serve as a stimulus to posterity as it has to us. THOMAS FRANCIS KAVANAGH, '31, 62 1 is 1 A, a.... , 'ri V I
