THE CLASS 0F 1933 We the clc.ss ef 33, have finished our high school career, but as v;e glance back over the four years, we have meny happy memories. When we were Freshmen we were mostly occupied in getting settle and accustomed to our new surroundings; however, we still had time tf take part in the school activities. In November came the Senior B-zarr, at whick we Freshmen ducted a fish-pond1! As Freshmen we elected the following officerss- Preeident—John Wolfe Vice President—Eugene Orth Seci'etary—Pauline Carroll Treasurer—Allister Tnomas For the most part, this first year was uneventful. AS S .hmores we began to feel more like high school students, and to take our work more seriously—although some of us were not so serious, even being compelled to read notes aloud to the class as a punishment for writing them. Our officers which we elected t' serve for this year were as follows Fiftdsident—John Wolfe Vice President--Edward Massucco 3ccretary--Dorothy Howe Treaaurer--William Collins T =en we were Jolly Juniors, and very proud of the fact that we were half way through our high school career. We took an active part in the school's social and athletic life, he won the Interdat Debasing Championship, for which we had the honor of having our nur ds engraved on the silver cup. M„ny Juniors took part in the Glee Club Owsretta, Love Pirates of Hawaii, which was presented both in Bellows Falls and in Saxtons River. On April 22 we held our Junior Prom in the high school gym, and on June 23 we held the Sonior Hop in honor of the graduating class. These two affairs were the most successful social ev.nts of the year. Ai Juniors the following officers served for the year:- President—John Williams Vice President—John Casey Secretary—Paulin© Carroll Treasurer--Edward Massucco T'en were Seniors’. This year the Senior Bazarr was our own affair .’ The two one-act plays, Unde Jimmy and Sham and also the dance which followed, were a great success. The year sped by nd soon it was March, and we presented the annual Senior Play. This year we gave Nothing But the Truth , and it was received with enthusiasm by all who attented. N ne of us avor forget our lively class meetings, our fran- tic period of exchanging personal cards, and-most of all-our happy yet sad, Commencement Week. Our officers for our Senior year weres— President—John Howard Vice President—Eugene Crth Secretary—Pauline Carroll Treasurer--Dennis Griffin • f? relating this history it would never do not to mention the -act that our class contributed much valuable material to the various eams, and thus were responsible for many victories. NwW we are leaving Bellows Falls High School, but we hooe that thJnt seniors will not forget us. We wish to thank -he faculty for all they have done for us, and we sincerely hope that every class will have as successful and hap y a high school career as we have had.

Uncle Jimmy directad by ivliss Jennings has its setting in a little western town. It is the story of an old man who has never had the chance to get away from the routine of farm work and longs to see a bit of the big world outside. Opportunity comes but Uncle Jimmy, on the brink of seize- ing it, decides that after all he doesn't want to leave the simple joy? of home life. The cast ir.clvc.ed Wendell Frenier, Rosamond Nil's, Eugene Orth, Sarah Wyman, Sylvia. Aumney, Lucy Olmstead, Margaret Keane, Hyman Miller. Sham , directed by Hr.

Debating Society, with Mr. Somerville as coc.ch r.nd advisor, was organise-, for the first time in Bel-'owe Falls High School, and this Society 8til.1 exists. The officers of the Society in 1930-31 were: horter o Fxtcn. President-, Ruth Davenport. Vice- President; Katharine Kcilej , .v.x-etax. . and Arthur Levin, Treasurer The team, which was cor of Arthur Levin, Jack Robinson, and Katharine Kel.loy, w.i'-.b Iho.. r j Curtin as Alternate, worked hard and had a very successfa' yea: After defeatinj Ludlow, Four Haver. Woodstock, and Middlebur p , '•■•hey enters! the semi-finals at Purlin- ton, to be defeated by Windsor. However, each member of our team received, in addition to his letters, a. 31.50.00 scholarship to the University of Vermont. The question debated on chat year by the teams who belonged to the State League was; Resolved— that chain stereo ere detri- mental to the best interests of the American public.11 In 1931-32 the Society resumed its good v o k with now officer: These new officers wore: Ai thur Levin, President; Pauline Carroll, Vice-President; Dor-aid Fims, Secretary; end Jack P.obi neon,. Troasu- The team was changed around charing the year.- as Ilr. Somerville wished to give everyone an equal chance. Arthur Levin, Katharine Kelley, Pauline Carrol1, Thomas Curtin, Jack Robinson, and George Holmes all debated, at one time or another, during -he year. The subject upon which the teams of the State League debated that year was; ,fResolved--that all states should enact compulsor.;.' unemployment insurance. Our team, after winning three debates and losing one, entered the preliminaries of the quarter xinalo, where they met defeat at the hands of the Middleoury team. During that year the Debating Society, sponsored Interclass debating, each member of the team coaching one of the class teams. The subject upon which the class teems debated was- Resolved.-- that all colleges should enact compulsory military training. After two preliminary debates, the Freshmen defeated the Junicis in the final debate, and won the silver cup. In 1932-33 the Debating Society was reorganized, but this year it did not join the State League, for various reasons. Although the club had no officers this year, merely a chairman, Pauline Carroll, it continued to meet, and again sponsored Intcr- class debating, which was run off very successfully. We, the graduating class of Bellows Falls High School, wish to thank Mr. Somerville for all he has done, and wc wish the undergraduates the best of luck in debating. Wc hope that they will take a real interest in it, and thc?.t sometime in the near future they will again take up Interscholastic Debating. MUSICAL ACTIVITIES Throughout the four years of high school, the class has been represented in Glee Club, Orchestra and, during the past two in Band. The Freshman and Sophmore years were uneventful, -but as Juniors, the members of this year’s graduating class ere the leaders in the musical societies of tne Bellows Falls High School. Two of our number headed the cast of t .e operetta ’’The Love Pirates of Hawaii, while approximately one t.;ird of the chorus consisted of the, then, juniors. The past year commenced with a concert presented by Glee Club, Orchestra, and Band. Two members of the instrumental quartette were Seniors, as was the soloist. Then again, the majority of the cast of the Nativity, the Christmas pageant, were Seniors, while we took an active part in receiving the neighboring towns that attended the Southern Vermont fusic Festival held in Bellows Falls. The Vermont Music Festival which took place at Burlington, was the center of attraction this year. For the first time representative from the Bellows Falls Glee Club made their appearance, and most of them were Seniors, The Band and Orchestra have sent, in all pre- vious years, members, and Rosamond Niles, Eugene Orth, and Fred finer have played in the All-State Orchestra for three consecutive years. We douot if any other graduating class, of recent years, can ;oast as many musicians as can the class of ‘33.

We would leave the school on the green. Hand in hand with some schoolmate, VII Through the long, cool, shady streeB ut now after work is done And over the hills we rambled And I'm feeling sort of low 'Mid the patter of many feet.

Gills Sports In basketball, there were no tuerabei s of the class of '33 on the High School Varsity Team until '32. That, howevei, is no sign that the girls didn't go out and try in the previous yen s. For the first time in 1932 two of our girls played on the team. They vei e Avis Heed and Gertrude Mo. rison. These two worked hard to get on the team and we appreciate their effoits. 1933 is the big year for oui class. In this yea.. we have eight seniors on the team. Added to the two veterans of last year a.i e Regis Has succo, Capt., Doi othy Howe , Elizabeth Szuch and Madeline.Macaithy. The gills worked ha d.

At Brattleboro, the team placed third; at Middlebury the team took fifth place against keen competitors. Tom Curtin and. Hymie Miller were the stars, winning the 100 yds. and 40 respectively. Much credit must be given to Mr. Sunderland for his splendid work at coaching. TEMNIS The tennis team had a good season this year, winning three matcn es out of four.

Agr i cu 1 tup 131 Einstein, the socon 3XPHESS ION Ea.ly fiuji huO. out little time to think. He was too bi.vsy .jcut the business of life, .io the ages passed, he improved his means of getting food and thus increased his leisure. As his leisure was inCi eased he had time for thought and he sooh wished to communicate Oileae thoughts to his fellowmen. an oral language became almost a necessity, uch small group, or tribe, built up its own language system. At that time it was sufficient for the needs of the tribe. It satisfied the need of the moment by giving expression to the few, simple, matter-of-fact ide..s that man wished to transmit. But soon this ceased to satisfy him. He wanted to record his deeds and adventures so that another tribesman, passing the same vo.y could understand them. For this purpose he slowly and painfull’' developed the ability to draw pictures. He found that he could nia: paint from roots and that he could draw pictures that would la t for ... longer space of time than he could imagine. As he cultivated chi act be became more proficient in it. He found in it a differ- kinc of pleasure from any he had ever experienced. As generation after generation improved on the act of their forefathers, beauty, at well as the ability to depict an event, be- came a quality of art. Since beauty gives pleasure, man spent' h: iesure time in enjoying it, first through creation and finally through appreciation. At -v time -omewhat later than that at which man made his first attempts at drawing, ho found that th re was a greet difference in sou vds and their effect up.n him. Ho found that there was a sound that made him feel happy, another that made him fool sad, and so on through all the emotions ho had ever experienced. He first heerd these sounds in nature. Soon ho- began to imitate them. Ha found that he could produce pleasing sounds with simple instruments that he could make. It took a long time for him to discover the differ- ent sounds that ho could make. It took a still longer time for him to lo..rn to combine these sounds to produce a melody.- However, ho found it a fascinating pastime, and spent much of his leisure doing it. Thus, in the coerce of many centuries, our heritage of beautiful music w..s built up. £ v.-cause thesc tribes were continually waging war on each other, raany. oi their verbal languages bo.-.rmo lost entia sly cr fused with co-ov-ncr until the number oi different languages was greatly reduc'd. o 1-ngUago of the stronger eurviv o-;.7 oho language of the weaker perished, leaving only a few words in another language. • i the case of one tribe being • -y come by another, verbal an. u.. e railed � .c a medrum or er rese.con , but music snd art were understood by ooth. Often the weaker vi.v o n era advanced along uhe_.fi lines than the stronger . Ir. this cane .. t ho- iv u regress - was irequontly adopted by their captors, and thru, much culture r s SaVeo. to the world. Toaay,. as a result of th is, we find ourselves living in a world of about tw-nty-fivo hundred languages and dialects. Of these there are only about eight of grec.t importance to the world at l_rgc. Thw tribes of the p st have become nations. The stronger and more aggtossive the original tribe, the wider spread the race of people, and consequently, the groat nations h..vo spread their languages over many countries. Todw.y, as before, man ;;q ro£ao his thoughts pertaining to busi- ness and to his thoughts pertaining to relatively unimportant things in j2..wlish, G®r.-;.-n, Fxonch, Spanish, Italian, or Dutch as the case may be. M,.n ic still interested in these languages primarily for their immediate utility. To the average man, the moot important reason for studying them is to increase his efficiency in his every- day life. Thvre aro a few pooplo who re..ch beyond this aim. They are the authors of the world’s groat literature. Language is to these few, v:hut paint is to a painter. They express man’s ideas on a variety of subjects. They paint their pictures and compose their music in words underotood by only a small part of the world. Artists amd musican3 express their ideas in a way that the whole •world understands. They portray emotion. It is they who express iiL.ns feelings bettor than he is able to express them himself. Bee .u . of this'snnn turns to them in his leisure. During the rush of work ao hac no time for them, but when he is at liberty he spends much time with them. rtS economic conditions are changing man is having an immense amount of increased leisure, all indicati-ns arc that this increase will continue xn the future. The youth of today is learning to understand and appreciate the work of authors, painters, and musicicax People c.ro having more time and more inclination to study and moro opportunities to travel. As a result of this wc should bo able to continue to improve upon the art and music of our forefathers. Languages will be understood, not only by a small group, but by many motions. It is -osoiblo that eventually a single language may be evolved, A language which shall be understood by all people. When this is accomplished, the two great bonds among nations, art and music, will be strengthened by a third language, and nov; will have gone a long way tow..rd creating perfect world-wide sympathy and understanding. SALUTATORY Parents and friends; Xn behalf of the class of nineteen thirty three, it is my pleasure to welcome you here tonight to the fifty- sixth graduation of the Bellows Falls High School� WE TURN TO BUSINESS A recent note of optimism was sounded by H iford Nowell, a New ark and Boston advertising mam, in an address to the alumnae of the Catherine Gibbs School. He said, Times have changed. Any woman can have any salary she pleases. If she wants to be president of a bus- iness, and paid $400 a week or more, the position is just as open to her as is that of secretary to some minor executive in that corpora- tion at $40 a week or less. If you realize that it's actually easier to hold a big job and go well at it then to be a clerk and a drudge, then remember--you are in a new age and can grasp end held v;h: tever position you want. There was a time, ar.d only ... fev' years ego, when the positions in business to which a young woman could aspire were quite limited, .oday, there are no barriers. The young woman in business has the aae unbounded opportunities foi promo cion and success as has the young man. Therte is no summit to the heights which she may climb. You ill fine her as high up on the ladder of business success as is the y ..ng man. Times have changed! .dmong those who had some commercial education and who have ac- hievea world-wide prominence are Senator Byraas of South Carolina, Senator Hiram V. Johnson of California, Senator Herbert of Rhode Island, Ex-President Wilson, Hr. and 1-As. Irving Thalberg, that is Norma Shearer and husband, and Rudolph Forster who is now Senior Executive Clerk for President moosevelt. There are others too num- erous to mention. If you will think of the men in our own community, as well as in national life, who have .oh lev eel weal ah, prominence, ana the re- spect of those who know them, you will discover that almost all of them are engaged in bucines? pursuits. It is significant that in this crucial era in which we now find ourselves, the leaders in finance, business, industry, and government i-e turning to the field of education for assistance not only at present but for the future. They recognize that business and govern- ment are both complicated end that n ore can knew all there is to rnow about them, as a consequence, where is a tendency at present or every statesman tc surround. hir-rsif with a corps of expert eo- uomicts ana technicians in every field cheir activity toughoe. Thi1” trend places a responsibility an those who are directing the busine education of our youth that cannot be denied, be should welcome it 3 an opportunity. It is a business man who floats srocks and. bonds, finances gre t companies, and works out details of corporations The business man • training is in lines of administration. He can efficiently and ex- fediticusly extreise a guiding hand over the professional man. What the p 'ofessional man can't do for himself, the business man is able to do it for him. I-.rs. Florence Schuette who for- two years jus been sitting at an xecutive's desk of the North American Radium Corporation urges a ■usiness course a. marriage training. ..hat urs. Ucliuette advocates 13 a compulsory business education ana that ever y g irl should be obliged to earn money before she is married because only then will Are have any idea of what it means for a man to provide her- with only the necessities of life but fo-qq of the l’vv--iesj too. And ohc thousands of girls who are talcing courses either in high school ,r in business colleges realize only too -veil the significance of the ruggestion and are profiting by it. Evidence that coinmercial education is of value to the Unites Stat Gov't lies in the fact that wc have a Dept, of Commerce. Mr. J. o. Malott, specialist in Commercial education of the United States Office of Education, said; The enrollment of more than a million young men and women in business courses is evident of some of the outstandin educational, occupational, and social trends of the twentieth century. The number enrolled in business courses exceeds the number in any fiel of vocational training chiefly because of the multitude of opportuniti in business and because of the mobility '-'ithin business organizations. Increasingly large numbers of young mc'n are turning to org nized train ing programs rather than apprenticeship . Don't think, however, that a commercial education teaches one jus to be a business man and nothing else. It does more than that. A commercial education leads one to think and it creates ambition. Ther robably never has been a time in our history when more attention, mor cwnright thinking, raor analysis, and more research have been done in he field of business than that which has been going on during the pa.:' three years. The economic situation has been and still is a challenge to business and industry as ’.veil as to the governmental agencies o this and other countries. , w is evident, looking toward the future, that the business tra ing given to the youth of the country for sometime to come must be and will be based to a great extent on the economic lessons we have learned and arc still learning as a result of the world-wide depress It is gratifying to know of the constantly growing appreciation of the value of commercial education in creative business building an' administration. Ex-Ercsidcnt Hoover, who is a mart well versed in incr national affairs--businoss as well as governmental--gave commercial education a very high endorsement when he appointed official delegatee to the International Congress on Comm.:rdial Education which met at Amsterdam in 1929, and further recognition when be appointed delegates to the same Congress for the meeting in 1932, at London. These meetir it will be remembered, were attended by delegates from hcarly every country in the world, and a vast amount of constructive work was accomplished toward promoting a greater appreciation of the business and industrial problems of various nations in relation to one another. President Roosevelt also pays commercial education a high compli: in a letter to Dr. John Robert Gregg, Er-sident of the American Socic+ for Commercial Education, in which he says, I believe that in the present world-wide economic derangement an attitude that reflects resolution, determination, grit, vigor, tenacity, and stability, bri common sense, will prove bcn-gicial and ultimately successful. Busi requires the nudge of encouragement, and I am certain that this Inter national Congress will help furnish the stimulation necessary by mani- festing, as it docs, an interest in the affairs of depressed and des- pondent business. My closing thought is with Andr -- Carnegie, the great philanthro. - ho said, I advise young men and young women to save the most precio1 years of their liv s by securing a business education, that they may go forth fully equipped early in life. GROWTH OF SCIENCE From the beginning of civilization man has been driven by in- cessant curiosity to seek explanations of the wonders of the wor! and its surroundings. In the days previous to the old Greek and Roman civilization such things as saov, rainfall, night, or day were all explained by mythical beliefs, Rainfall was due to water drawn up to the clouds bv dris • ’’ring along her rainbow; likewise the sun and moon were diee'es v. .. -ravelled across the sky in flaming chariots. As civilization and c .Jw.i ,r •-.v men began to turn their eyes to their surroundings a ’ 10 cry ro - ap;; v a them by com- parison with common things. Glr.cc- •:r.j phe.icmoau of the sky are the most obvious, man first tried to explain tile movements of the heavenly bodies in terms of mathematical degrees. Prom these studies grew one of the oldest known sciences, astrology. In bn is science the movements of the sun, moon, planets and earth are charted at the time of a persons birth. By glancing at this chart or horoscope the astrologer can tell in what of the twelve sign of the Zodiac are the various heavenly bodies. To each hou are allotted certain characteristics or qualities which are influenced when the planets occurr in the sign Since these characteristics vary only slightly for the signs of astrologer can read and interpret the past, present and future of the sv.b- ject. Today astrology is a widely used amusement, not the form- erly relied upon science. This is due to the fact that science replaces superstition with fact. As man turned from the stars he looked in the opposite direction and began to explore deep jnco the earth. As he looked, he saw that all kinds of rock and metal were not alike for some were more beautiful and more valuable than others. Since gold was the most valuable all other metals were called the baser metals. Then, believing that all forms of matter had life and seed he began to reason in an attempt to make the world fit his imagination, P'irst he thought that since in the hard, homely case of a seed was a beautiful plant then why in the hard covering of the baser metals could there not be a seed of gold. If he could only extract this seed then he could produce gold. Follow- ing this curious reasoning men began to melt, pour and mix metals. Thus from these occupations came the word alchemy, meaning the scudy of mingling and pouring. Another famous side of alchemy was the vain search for a wonderful philosopher’s stone which would give its owner eternal health and youth. In the search for this wonder many credulous people spent large sums of money only to be swindled continually. However, in the course of the alchemists studies, experiments, conclusions the basis of modern chemistry was laid. Alchemists taught that work was necessary and tried to prove the simplicity of ture according their wishes, not fact proved by experiment. From the time of the early alchemists to the renaissance all the present forms of science had their beginnings and were quietl; growing until they should appear well developed during the renaissance. At this tame new interest in solmees, as in a] 1 other branches of research and creative work, was being formed men became bold enough to spend their whole lives upon science and l'o work more openly with fewer mythical signs and codes,, Here the .asis of modern science was laid and a new scientific method f s evolved which led to complica bed, accurate investigations m which, opinion could hold no weight. Through the U3e of this method Queen hlizabeth's physician, Gilbert_had founded the prin- ciples of electrical science; Galileo had discovered the cir- culation of blood in the body while other men had made equally important discoveries in other scientific fields. The result of the renr.i 3s; r upon science was to form the cornerstone upon which a tl I'-'. • o _cv.ce was to he iaid. Today modern scientists owe grecr c. ji: • the e early men who placed them upon the right road to ■ ,c. o.-v end made it possible for them to make the great disco the lost few centuries. Perhaps the greatest contribution of tn33% scieniicus v as the proof that nature was extremely complex and that scientists should abandon the introspect method of examining material changes Hut instead should attempt to see natural events not as they supposed they ought to be, but as they really are. By following in the footsteps of these early men, modern sci. lists have solved many of natures mysteries and have turned their solutions to human advantage. in the days of the early American colonies, progress was slow and laborious for men spent their whole lives in groups, learning about the outside world only through personal contact with some traveller. Since this method was so slow and undependab' men began to search for newer modes of communication,. To meet t’nd demand science brought forth new methods of communication which have been so developed that today, it is possible to connect people of one continent with those on another in a very short space of t.lmej or to hear news from all over the world before it is a day old. Likewise, as American communities grew men began to need newer', quicker and more efficient modes of transportation. Again science stepped in with first, the new light carriages, then locomotive, automobile, and, until now, a person can travel across a continent by air in a few hours. In these activities science has set out to meet a need among a few people and has ended by benefiting every person. For, while communication and transportation may he of greater aid to one person than another, yet no one would be able to manage without more advanced method of communication or trans- portation than our colonial forefathers had0 In general, as science has progressed through the ages, it has t-acught men the value of research and has substituted fact for theory and superstition Science has also spread over great territories and now influences every human being in some way ov another. Although science is new, it has achieved so much •--- pas’ hat only speculation and great imagination can encompass the . iture. THE HOLTS Now as always the home is the center of human activities. Oner t was managed through the motherly instincts of the house-wife. L' .t is managed by the woman who has studied and lea.rned the most efficient methods of running a home. And it is this type of home th our generation is creating, We, a.s a result of our study, have mor :han an instinctive idea cf v.iaJ creating a home really means. The creation of a stat:e no: life under modern conditions c or training and preparation der- -i and mere thorough than ever be Tor as Lowell says in The rroso- i C •’ is, occasions teach nr luties. Through books, lectures, a extension courses, one cm repc -3 intelligently for the profes on of home maker without direr. ■ cho .Jng. But how much better fitter for her exacting work is the roung woman who knows the principles of home making. Once a charming home, smoothly run, was possible for, and ssential to a very small class cf people, hen man worked from sun o sun, his tired body could have cared little for anything save bod and rest. Today, with its ever expanding leisure, it is .mportant that the home should be a center for rest and recreation. :t is a place to enjoy life, but it is also, and always, mother's ork-shop. Only a wisely trained efficiency can harmonize these afferent sides of home life. • The girl who has had home economics in school is ready to budget her time, thoughts, and money so that all members of the amily can enter into the home project. In a haphazardly managed ome the children have either too much attention with opportunity fc ■.aking nuisances of themselves or else too little attention ■ ith it attendant clamor for something to do. The trained wife and moth - ■ealizes tba.1t sfif.Mren must have their part in the creation the .one if they are to be healthy and happy there. She is enabled to C '.is because her tr ining has taught her to regard her chosen care-; 'ith a detachment so that she can manage this inclusion of the enri_ Tamily circle without becoming swamped in endless, petty details. This efficiency m-.i ovl;.in. uouvs .vv-.be 3 a serenity of � Xife in home at all times. Order and proper planning of time and strength, in themselves, contribute to the spiritual side of life, and to cl development and gro’th of character in the individuals invalued therein. For the home is more than a pla e to work and play: it x ' above all other things a way cf life. and to this way of living the man of the house must make his contributions if the home project is to be successful. When faucet . leak, and bureau drawers nm, when the radio goes wrong and the doox hell won't ring, the handy-man is more than welcome in his own home. The nan who has made a set of shelves or mended a piece of furniture has built for himself a sense of possession and a feeling of respond ibility that produces an inner feeling of d.eep satisfaction. He also stands higher in the estimation of his boy or boys. Jr these days when boys are, or long to be, Scouts, father must be tn ed i handicrafts if he is to keep his position as head of the farm' Tor modern youth is willing to give respect only v here respect is 'alive and he is preparing himself to earn the respect of youngsters in the future. as the creation of a home center for all people has become in reasingly possible, so has educational training for leisure fcr ali puo'ple become more and more necessary. The woman with the train.'' mind i3 ready to spend her spare tine in occupation of more artistic merit and value than painting impossible daisies on coal shovels as the Victorian woman did. She is prepared to enter into the wider housekeeping recommended by such women as Elizabeth Byran Owen and Eleanor Roosevelt, who both claim that no woman should be content with the welfare of her children until welfare is available for every child. Home Economics makes the v;oman, with wider interest, ready to plan diet3 and hygiene, not only for her own child, but also for every child. The study of Home Economics, then, teaches one first, to be an efficient housewife, one who kno’s many ways of creating real beauty in the home, 7omen of all races and climates have attempted to make their homes lovely, -lever before have there been so many objects of beauty available to all home lovers. Unfortunately, there also never have been so many ugly things, unlovely of line or shoddily cheap as those shown in the markets of today. Among those pieces of varying usefulness and appearance: the discriminating buyer is fitted to choose the best. This school trained house-wife does not, through ignorance, waste time, space, or energy at her disposal, and she is fitted to enter with poise and assurance upon her career of home making. The man with trained hands is also ready for vrider sympathies, he broker who has had shop training is ready to understand the problems of the carpenter who builds his house. The employer who ho had shop training is going to have few labor troubles with his employees, because he understands their problems. .ill these things do contribute to the v elfare of the home. For as frictionless relations in the business world heln to make the heme happy, so is the happy home the very foundation stone of a healthy nation. TE2 DEVELOP!: ITT OF 'ERGOFA.LITY The dictionary defires personality briefly and not very explicitly as that which constitutes distinction of person It would be interest:: ng to try to analyze this elusive thing called personality-to etermine '.'hat constitutes personality and how it may be develc ; ;d - Personality is to t. . ni: idui.l what icing is to cake. Rare indeed is the person w o fails to effect his associates either favorably or u.xfav r ...blj 3c me people affect us with an instant feeling of repuls .on. :e .n ’• at tracted to others as though by a powerful riagu.it. The ic t damning proise one can give another is to say :0i, she s ni :e er.ou h, -. hen you get to know her. ' Such a remark shows vital lack in the person under discussion, whether you are a positive or a negative magnet depends on you. , Everything depends on the man or woman. Each one of us has a personality unlike that of anyone else in the world. The ex- tent to which one develops this individuality largely determines the degree of success he will attain. It may be safely said that appearance has little to do wi th one’s attractiveness to others. Personality is a quality of mind ratbr ‘hxn of appearance. If one has failed to develop the quality he is like a picture which, although it may be perfect in every technical detail, lacks that divine spark of life which only genius can impart-- that indefinable something which cakes the work of the masters immortal. He may be a veritable storehouse of facts, but so is ar encyclopedia, and no one evfer accused an encjreloped ia of individuality! I do not wish to discount that side of education which deals with facts. For from it, a solid foundation of knowledge is necessary before one cun begin to think for himself. To develop individuality one must first gain knowledge about a variety of subjects. Here headstrong ignorance is disastrous both to the would-be individualist and to society. The prime requisite in the development of personality is self-expression. Thi k for yourself, don't let some one else from your opinions for you! fter all, our conventions ore not infallible laws to be followed blindly. They are merely rules to guide our conduct, ana are subject to change with chancing conditions. To preserve one’s 'individuality and sense of personal freedom, ono is not forced to so around breaking rules of morality and established orecedcnt just for the fun of it, or because its too herd to keep uo to the standard. Individualitv is a creed for the strong. If one wishes to develop this Quality, he must first gain knowledge. Then, he must think things cut for himself, draw his own conclusions, and stick to his guns despite public opinion, and as man is notoriously” a gregarious animal, th - is one of the hardest things in the world to do, but it brings io i m reward in self-respect, and others have no regard for one who does not respect himself. So individualism .v.,,y be said to be knowing what rules to break, and haveing the courage to break them'. The cuiof _im of education is to develop individuality. Pcop_ have come to realize this now more than ever, and we find the te-che taking into consideration the nature and mental make-up of the child. I.. a child is at all intelligent, he cppreciates being allowed to think for himself. Tno .iron-clad rules of our ancestors, who believed in a thorough drilling the Three R's ..r.d a changeless routine, regardless of persons, has given way to a deeper consider- ation of personalities. New the office of the teacher is to own opinions. The attainment of true culture is the perfecting of individuality. Culture , therefore is the process of polishing the rough edges of the gem called personality. To be pleasing to others, one does not have to be beautiful, nor witty, nor very wise. A spontaneous interest in what others are doing is essential to popularity. One who is engrossed in his own affairs cannot hope to interest others. He may be a great scholar or an exceptional genius, but if he alloY;s himself to develop along one narrow channel, to become narrow-minded and big- oted, he is merely thwarting himself. In the final analysis, a selfish person, who takes no interest in what others are doing, or an introvert, as he is more politely termed, has much loss chance of success in life than one whose interests arc broad and human. ..After all, isn't one's success in life measured by the impression he makes on society? It is much more comforting to have the world for you than against you , but infinitely hotter to excite even a feeling of hostility than a neutral attitude. I have said that a person who is narrow-minded is merely tlr ;rting himself. This brings up the question of what broadmind- dedness is. Is it being willing to Ac what the crowd does des- pite personal convictions of what constitutes right and wrong? Some people seem to think so, but I don't. A broadminded person is one whoso interests and knowledge are extensive. Perhaps he mi ht be termed a person with a Coa...cpolitan mind. A person who is broadminded in the true sense of the word, is one who, although he may not, perhaps, have an extensive knowledge about anv one subject, yet knows something about many things. A ---ow- ledge of dead languages, for instance is undoubtedly vr.luab-e, but a classical schol-.r should not be ignorant of what is going on in the world right now. Or. she other Jiand, a commercial stuaent should not be so ingrossed in thoughts of business that fce.oh.-js n time to think of the finer things of life, such as art and lite ature. Knowledge breeds tolerance, while ignorance makes bigots and fools. The more one studies, the more he realizes bow little he re.lly knows. Almost everyone is inclined to exaggerate his importance somewhat. It has a rather chastening, but withal a wholesome effect to consider the relative unimportance of tho individual in the great world. Having once been duly impressed witu a. sense of hie ovm insignificance, one is not likely to try to rorce arbitrary opinions on others without first considering tl quo tion from all angles. TowU htfulness and tolerance usually su; eeus where ignorance and violence fail miserably. 7..LHDICTCRY .Va who are n .w gc'rg c it' to take or.r places in the world, owe a great debt cf ■ttj’.o t tl .van who hrv3 helper! to equip us to do ex: part ecm.. atly and inte-lijeRuly V e are fortunate, indeed, in having parents and teachers who have done everything in their power to open up to us a fuller and richer life.

PROPHECY OF THE CLASS OF 1953 On, into the inky blackness of the stormy night, through drift a- fter drift, lurched my little roadster. The snow froze as it struck the windshield so that I could not'see where to steer. I chose, how- ever, the path of least resistance, urging my car to do its utmost to bring me to some kind of shelter from the raging elements--when-- crash--and there loomed ahead of me a solid wall of logs. Here was my shelter tut the problem of gaining entrance con- fronted me. This was no t ne io- itus ciy examination. Taking my brief-case, and struggling wi„h difficulty agvinst the wind, at last I located the doer oi tne cacin. Ct v as a matter of moments to tear the paddock from its fastenings and enter. B By the beams from my pocket flash, I saw that the room was large. I lighted the lamp which stood on a table in the center of the room, .nd then surveyed my surroundings. Directly before me was a fire- place in which was laid a fire. As I was cold and shivering, the Ight of this appealed to me, so I immediately availed myself of the warm fire. Upon investigation, I found provisions, and I soon prepared a meal. Since I found here all the comforts of home, I decided to stay or the night. Seated before the fireplace, I saw a set of morocco bound books jpon the mantel. X took down the first volume and proceeded to gRanc through the pages. Tho set was, I found, something like a huge di- rectory, compiled by seme re, address unknown- Said data consisted chiefly of facts regarding the education and occupation of the various individuals on the earth- This preface appealed to my scientific mi-d, I took it to a chair and settled myself :o react.
