Follow, follow, follow the glean. Struggle is gain, though triumphs wane. Follow, follow, follow the gleam To the victory that youth will win. And so as we face the task, Thet before us loons yet undone, With the ardor of conqu' ring youth Fondest visions nay yet be won. Follow, follow, follow the glean. Our souls arc bent with glad intent. Follow, follow, follow the glean Of the torch that will lead us on. -Lena Bussy- PROGBAh OF SENIOR CHAPEL Scripture re.- ding 2. Lord's Prayer 3. Singing of America the Beautiful. 4.

The following officers served through the year? Herb rt Pitch, President-; Ruth Davenport, Vice President; Katherine Kelley, Secretary; and Arthur Levin, Treasurer. The question selected by the State was: Resolved, that chain stores are detrimental to the best interests of the American public. The year was ver successful as our team, composed of Arthur Levin, Jack Robinson, Katherine Kelley, with Thomas Curtin, as alternate, entered the state finals at Burlington, having defeated Ludlow, Fair Haven, Voodstock, Middlcljury and New Haven. At Burlington, B. P. was defeated by ’Vindsor, but as a. reward for their work, our team received ■ A 50 scholarsh ips to the University of Vermont besides the debating letters. In September 1931, the Society - as reorganized with Arthur Levin, president; Pauline Carroll, Vice president; Donald Nims, Scoretary; and Jack Robinson, Treasurer. The team did not remain the same throughout the year, as the policy of the coach was to give every- one a fair chance. Arthur Levin, Pauline Carroll, George Holmes, J ck Robinson, Thomas Curtin and Kay Kelley all took part in the deb-tee. The subject for debate this year was? Rcslovcd, that all states should enact cur.pulsory unemployment insurance.” Having won three debates and having lost one, the deb ting team mitered the preliminaries of the quarter finals, .-here they were d feated by Middlcbury. This year the Debating Society sponsored Interclass debating. A set of rules was made and members of the Society served as coaches of the various class..:. The subject debated was; Resolved, that all colleges should enact compulsory military training. The response to a call for volunteers was good and after two preliminary debates, the Freshmen defeated the Juniors in the finals winning the silver cup. The Seniors who have debated as well as the others of the Society, wish to express their thanks and appreciation to Mr. Somerville for his time, effort, coop ration and encouragement which is so vital to a successful team.

All Cl fUi' OLYMPIC Glia S Much interest has been aroused in the cc Lobr.aiion of the Olympic Games because of two facts. First, that the . inter spores have been successfully conducted at Rake PLe-cid, iT. f. which i-. not x..r rrom Bo Hows Falls, and second, that the remaining events wiLL be heLd at Loo AngeLes, California from July 30, to August 14 of this year. Per- haps your interest has been aroused to ouch an extent that you would like to know more about the games and to Lea.rn when and ■ 'hero they started. It is my purpose tonight to ccLI you of the origin and growth of those games. 776 years Before Christ, dh Greeks -ere Celebrating the OLympic Games on the Plains of OLympia in the southwestern p rt of Greece. from chose omajLl pLains of Olympic. came chc nr.mo of the world fr.moas 3Lyrnpic Gemes. The Greeks wore Lovers of physicaL perfection. They hcLieved in the principle, A Sound Kind in a Sound Body and the Olympian resti- ve L was instituted as a means of r aLizing this buli« f. The ruLes of the OLympian FcstivaL (as the gatrk-s Wore sometimes caLLed) wore very scrict. The contestants had to bo free from persona] or civic dishonor and had to bo mentalLy, morally, and physically erfcct. One historian says that the slightest blemish or skin erup- tion would bar thorn from the contests. The candidates came to the gymnasium about a v ook before the games were to be heLd. H -re they r ero examined by eight judges who should decide v ho wouLd enter. Be- fore they came to the gymnasium, they had practiced strenuously for ten months. The Plains of Olympia, where the games wer held, was very beau- tiful. Ic was a sort of Greek San Francisco in the extreme west, with Golden Gates looking out on the Sapphire Ionian Sea. At the southern boundary of the field was the rlv r ALph ius which was studded with smalL isLands. There were aLso two smaLlor rivers on the astern and western Limits of the plain. The northern end of the field was shut in by lit, Cronius. Looking southward from I.Ic, Cronius, one could see the anciont gymnasium and prytaneum. Near those two buildings was a row of ton treasuries which were raised by oho different Greek states and contained statues of great valuo and excui3itc a'orkmanship Be Low cho treasuries were six jj.gucs of Zeu3, caLled Zeno’s, which ore made from die fines of ChLofco3 who bad broken tho rales of th OLympic contests. Farther o die Left vms die staduim which contained the race-course ' here the foot races ore hold. The judges approached this by a secret cn- tr nee.

In the center of the Altis, a consecrated ground, stood r. i. ■ rge statae of Teas, tho kins of the- sods, in whose honor the .games re hold. Other buildings nearby ’ ore the CoanciL Hall, temples of the gods, and the palaestra fa building for boxing and wrestling con- tests) . In such r. sotting as this, Greek athletes from the widely scatc • Greek cities of the world or me as early as 776 B. C. every four yearn to take part in the Olympian Festival. These games had started as simple foot races in honor of Zeus, chc king of the gods. At first they lasted only one day, but more events •.ore added until finally ic took five days co comp Loco them. They I seed from Che ILth to the 15ch inclusive, of July. They were held at ehis cimo because chc plains were very beautiful. The first day was spent in prayer and Testing. The contestants stood before a largo statue of Zeus and swore chat they would compete fairly. The judges also took an oath chat they would judge fairly. After the oaths were taken, the heralds blow on their trumpets or silence. Then they announced the names, parentage, and homes or chc contestants. The first event of the games 'as the fooc race.

Under no circumstances nay an athlete represent a country unless ho is native born or a naturalized citizen of that nation. To appreciate the variety and interest of the vents staged at Olympic Stadium, it is only necessary to make a brief survey of the sports included in the program. Track and field athletics ere undoubt- edly the lost popular and spectacular events. In addition; they aro probably the oldest of all sports, dating back many thousands of years before Christ. It is not commonly known that our national sport, foot- ball, holds a prominent placo on the Olympic program. It is true, however, that a demonstration game of American football, which is a conbination of rugby and soccer, is a. big feature in the tenth Olympiad The famous game of Lacrosse, originated by the Canadian Indian, will bo demonstrated at Olympic Stadium this year. Oator sports, su, as swimming, rowing and yachting, rank second only to track and field vents. The ancient sports of boxing and wrestling arc scheduled tc take place at Olympic Auditorium. There will be at least two oven.:; going on at the same timo in order that the public may have a choice and in order to got all events into the allotcd time. The problem of lodging and feeding the Olympic athletes is usuall; attended to by the Olympic Committee of the nation in which the games are held. The United States has a novel plan in at the Olympic events ohe form of the oLympic viLlage, which is expected to prove very sat- isfactory. The two thousand nen athLetes, trainers and alternates will reside in a porcabLe viLLage of vaLL board houses. The houses wiLL he sou.id proof, -water proof, healthful and con.fortabLe. A large dining hall with a kitchen and chef for or oh nation will be provided in order to maintain training as far as food is concerned. Comfort station, bath houses and medival service, as weLL as recreational faculitieo will be at the service of the guests. Woman athLetes wiLL receive oeuaLLy comfortabLe accomodations at the University of Southern Cali- fornia. Several training fioLds wiLl be given over to the visiting team. The opening and cLosing 0Lympic ceremonies are very impressive ud beautiful. Before the games begin the King or President of th--. ration acting as host is escorted to the Tribune of Honor. When he is seated, the athLetes parade with their national fLags around the stadium to tho Tribune of Honor. Then oaths of aLlogianco and re Li- ► gious ceremonies take place. After this, a pLaro of trumpets and a saLutc are heard, the Olympic fLag is raised to the central masthead, pigeons bearing the 0Lympic colors arc sot free, and the games begin. After the games, the fineL ceremonies and distribution of mcdr.Ls bake pLace. Each victory is recorded by hoisting the nationaL fLag of tin winner and pLaying his nationaL anthem. The revival of the 0Lympic Games is fast proving itself to bo n of tho greatest movements toward internationalism of the modern ag- in this way tho athletes of the worLd may meet and Learn good spore inanship from each other Hot onLy this, hut it is one of the finest rays to create an era of good foe Ling that has yot boon tried. The benefits of the modern games v iLL conform with those of the ancient Greeks and may our modern nthLeteS he ver LoyaL to the oLd Greek id Swiftor-Highor-Strongor, which they accepted for their motto. Why And What Shall We Read? There is. probably no one thing which has a more broadening effect than reading. Through his book, the reader travels in far away countries, imagines himself the witness of a scene of marvelous beauty, and lives with the hero in adventures which, as he reads, i become real. Study the life of any prominent writer, influential states- man, clever leader — you will almost invariably find that at some time he read extensively. Reading to some extent is necessary to correct writing. Having read well-writen material, it is per- fectly natural to endeavor, as far as possible, to produce work that is similar. With a good start in the right direction, it gradually requires less effort to write well, is no longer necess- ary to follow a copy so rigidly and the art of writing well is unde control. Where did the brilliant conversaticnlist acquire his exten- sive vocabulary? We all envy that person who is capable of speak- ing easily and fluently upon a variety of subjects. It is practi- cally impossible to read even hurriedly, without observing new words. Such observation in this way is the easiest way of increas- ing ones vocabulary. An extremely good habit for every reader to form is that of making himself familiar with the meaning of all those words which he finds are not perfectly clear to him. It is, of course, possible to gain a vague conception of the meaning of an unfamiliar word merely studying the context. In some cases this might be sufficient, it is bettor to secure a definition from the dictionary. We must remember that books are not the only available source of profitable rea.ding material. Magazines and newspapers should also receive credit. The lc .ding magazines contain articles on the important questions under discussion, as well as stories by loading authors. Most of them discuss the questions impartially, giving the reader a stand on cither aide, Sewspapers keep the reader up to the minute on daily occurrences. Everyone should acquire the habit of reading a well-written paper carefully. Dr.. Samuel Johnson once said, A man ought tc read just as his inclination leads him, for what he reads as a task will do him little good. Perhaps this statement should not be taken literally, for obviously it would not be difficult for us tc form poor as well as good reading habits. It would be practically impossible for a person of this generation to read and understand all of the so- called classics. However, by selecting material from both claesics and modern literature a profitable variety can easi'.- bo secured. It is, quite possible to cultivate a taste for good literature. Perhaps this might best be dene by reading with the idea of enjoying ourself, rather than the idea of performing a difficult task. Since literature covers such a broad field, why limit ourself tc one or two subjects? Tc be sure, material pertaining to ones first interest — even to the profession in which ne is engag- ed — should be first, but ether things alec merit attention and study. Spelling, a Waterloo for sc many of us, can bo notice- ably improved by reading. It cannot, cf course, be made faultless without extra study, but an observant reader spells considerably better than one who seldom roads. There are several different types cf readers. Fer instance, one persen reads everything very slcwly and carefully; another reade twice as much- hecause he reads hurriedly. It would he difficult to oay which cf- the two profited rest, for there are good. arguments on both sides. The slow careful reader undoubtedly understands thoroughly all that he has read, while the other, though he has a hazy idea of a larger variety cf subjects, is probably net thorough- ly informed upon any cf them. Some of us read a beck merely for the story, while, ethers re .d it because cf some peculiarity about the style. In either case, there is a distinct advantage to be gained by reading them. Still cthcre read bc-rks to gain knowledge cf history, science, etc. Mere than one English statesman has con- fessed that he owed his knowledge cf certain periods cf English his- tory laregly tc Shakespeare. There is such an extensive variety cf types cf becks th one should net always read with the idea cf drawing a moral loosen from the bock, cr even cf learing something profitable, for, as Francis Bacon has said, Some becks are tc be tasted, ethers tc be swallcwec seme few tc be chewed and digested. VALEDICTORY Society's greatest task is the schooling of its young. For the preservation end continuation of the race, it hr.3 a I- 'ays been necess- ary for men and women to teach the younger generation how to care for themselves. Even the very earliest men taught their children ale they knev; about life and the world. As th ages passed, the store of know- ledge grew. The advent of the printing press and hooks gave everyon- access to this knowledge. It has made it possible for young people to see where others made their mistr.kcs a.nd how they themselves oan avoid those mistakes. The schooling with which society provides a. youth gives him opportunity to learn from the experience of others who have lived before him how host to live his own life; from those who have previously conducted the affairs of the world how he can fill his pla.co there. The ultimate aim of schooling is to bring go a. youth on idca.l toward which he will v ork as ho grows older. This is done by accumu- lating ideas a.nd thoughts on special subjects. Thu boy or girl who has never had an id al finds one sometime during his school life. The one who has an ideal when he begins school finds a still higher de- gree of perfection to strive for. An education shows what is possih - it shows what has been done, what ca.n he done. It brings to youth ti.- realization of what is in his power. This class can bo considered a.3 illustrating the growth and dove- lopment of ideals and abilities. We entered high school simply as boys and girls who had been through the elementary grades. Our only ambition was to go through high school.� Our previous records and our 'Otnc environments madG no difference in the way we were received, AI -ere given tho seme chr.nce to Lcr.rn, the same work to do, road were erected in the sc .me way. Our idcaLs hr.ve grovm grc.dur.LIy, Our vision of Life hr.s broadened, The Little foLLow whose ambition had always been to drive n truck, beerme interested in airpLonc pi Lots As h grow r.nd studiod more wideLy, his idcr.L changed again to the research chemist, I Nov: the time has come for us rer.LLy to work toward our ideals, 7e r.LL have the same educational background. What Wv. wiLL do with th; schooling depends upon us. Some wiLL go to college for further study, others wiLL begin to work, but always with an ideal in mind, always reaching higher to discover new idcaLs. Y o take this opportunity to thank: •The residents of the town of Rockingham who have recognized our need for schooling, rood hr.ve given us a chance for study, work, and dovelopmont The Administration, the Schoo L Board and Superintendent who hr.ve brought to us all tho necessities for that schooling and organized the school system for our interests; the Principal who has pLanned the work of the schooL moro in dv taiL, and vdvisei us individually. Our Teachers who have Led and taught us with reference to specieL subjects, who have guided our mental development wisoLy and synpathot' caLLy, ¥ c roaLizc how inadequately words express our regard and apprec' tion for you, our mothors and fathers. Your has bcun the task of shioLding us from Life’s greater probLeras and sharing aith us our petty worries. You have untiringLy sacrificed yourselves that our minds might be systematically deveLoped and cultivated. CLassmates: The future Lies before us. The goals formed in the past arc yet to be gained. Others have made it possibLe that we shouL- receive this schooling, but our success depends upon us aLonc. May we prove ourseLves worthy of what wo have received, by ceaseless effort towards the fulfillment of our ideals.
