Her placing here is not known es yet. The Flight of Youth There are gains for all our losses, There are balms fer all our pain: But when youth, the dream, departs 1 It takes something from our hearts, And it never comes again. We are stronger, and are better, Under manlzood's sterner reign: Still we feel that something sweet Followed Youth, with flying feet, And will never come again. Something beautiful is vanished, And we sigh fcr it in vain: We behold it everywhere, On the earth, and in the air, But it never comes again. We never know what time shall bring, What song tomorrow we shall sing, What joy or sorrow share. 'I'he stream of life goes swirling by, But none can read with certain eye The ffeights-ge it may bear. We take one turn to left or right And in that second'g rapid flight Life may be shaped anewg What thoughts We had but yesterday Be wholly changed or put away By what we now must do. - Richard Henry Stoddard Destiny 'Ihe difference 'twixt good and ill Is never fully known until The record lies complete. Wlzat men cell destiny or fate In curious places seems to wait The ones it seeks to meet. How chart this mystery so strange When by our every act we change Unto the journey's end? Two pfopie meet and who can know A If each has made another foe Or gained another friend? - Edgar A.

Our gold differed from that of the forty-niners , however. Our gold was the diploma after twelve years of alternating work and play. It was with 'eager hearts and shining eyes that the future illustrious graduating class of 1942 stumbled over their baby feet into the first grade covered wagon. The teamster was Miss Elva Lamb, and the trials and tribulaticns which she patiently bore are too multifarious to mention. Out of this :lass of cute kiddies thirteen were destined to be in that class of thirty-two seniors of 1942. These were- Robart Carlile James Coffelt Dirk Cooper Keith Dimmich Shirley Eldridge Norman Graves Verncn Johnson Ollavene Jones Bill Lawson Ruth McDonald Meredith Rathbun Cornelia Walter Frances Walters These sweet little tots, having no idea of the rules of a covered wagon train, learned a ereat deal in thcse first few months, not only from their kind leader, Miss Lamb, but also from the more experienced and toughensd pioneers of the second grade covered wagon. In respect to our actions our motto during this year was Always be in the wrong place at the right time. The next year found us child prodiges in the second grade covered wagon telling all we knew, which we soon learned wasn't much, to our teamster, Miss Thelma Rice. We were gradually becoming big kids, and did we strut! Elsie Barrett, with her dimples and curly blonde hair, joined us this year. Our mottosoon became Do nothing unless you haf to. tlf we could only forget it.j The days rushed by, and 'it wasn't long until the teamster of the third covered wagon, Miss Margaret Silvers, was welcoming us under the canvas. A stray pioneer, Joan Yochem, delayed in the Lafayette wagon train, became our friend and an erstwhile gold- seeker with us. Murel Reeves and Ruby Hefrick also joined our group. We enerffetically e-ntered upon the multiplication tables, and for social life we played hilarious baseball under our teamster's supervision. With the help of our teamster, we all wrote letters to Ruth McDonald, who was sojourning in this hospital during the removal of a naughty ap- pend'x. Our motto in regard to the multiplication tables appeared, Learn 'em and Leave 'emi' Our fourth grade Covered wagon was def'nitely a new experience. At least, we were allowed to play on the other side cf the walk. The time was made shorter as our days became spiced with contesis given us by our teamster, Miss Nora Graves. We paszed through the fifth grade covered wagon with whoops and hollers. We learned several sad things, though, that somewhat darkened our otherwise bright days. 'Ihese were in connection with Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny. Our jovial teamster wa' Mrs. Mabel Hall. and in addition to our studies, she taught us how to tell the number of days in a month by counting them off on our knuckles. The sixth grade covered wagon loomed up in front of us almost too soon. It was our last grade covered wagon. The flying days found us jumping the rcpe, playing jacks, writing poems, and filling cur hours with moments of fun. Our teamster, Miss Nelle Rigdon was started gardening on a large scale by the flower seeds we gave her. Lois Shoaf added her name to our growing list of forty-twoers . Class History tcontinuedb Our dancing feet flew up and down the stairs after we were promoted to the sev- enth grade covered wagon. After a little while we overcame our confusion and learned the names of all our new teamsters. Our exzitement grew, as we were permitted to give a party or two. This was the first of the two Junior High covered wagons. The eighth grade covered wagon found us more grown up than ever. With great reluctance we bade good-bye to our leaf houses and other kid stuff . The annual wein- er roasts hed begun. tMarvin Mounce, deceasedj. FUNNY FRECKLED FRESHMEN On a dark day in September, 1938, we shook down to the gym to be initiated as freshmen. We were entering the fourth covered wagon on the side of our gold. Our fright proved in vain, however, for the initiation was very gentleg and we suffered no more than a few regurgitations. Several new members entered from the hills of Warren county, and southern Benton countyg and our class numbered 49. The loyal ones of these new'uns were Mildred Hogue, Norma Smith, Thelma Redwine, Jim Orr, Ola Peterson, Edgar Dalton, Delmar Nowicki, and Bob Boswell. Mary Agnes Brouillette, and Ervelene Dowling, the flaming duet, also threw in their knapsacks with us. CLASS ORGANIZATION President ........................., Bill Lawson Vice President ....,.

Our prom succeeded, though: and, regardless of the early time it was over, many parents wondered at the late hours of their little lads and lassies. Two more- gold-seekers, Maxine Lockhart, and Helen Gottschall, tripped into our Junior covered wagon with us. What experiences they had to tell. . .,,. Aw . N Q V' 'i ' r ff: I ..

Two late comers joined us in that last year. These were James Brier, and Dale Gcodwine. Among the important events of the year were Catastrophe Days . We had burned hands, sprained and broken ankles, and bro- ken arm. We were cursed, we thought. CT'he freshmen felt as though they were, too, when we had finished initiating them.j Remember the Junior Prom? We were honored t?J guests! With a sigh of relief, the Stevens Hotel and Chicago as a whole bid ug fare- well when we came home from our trip. Eat and be merry for tomorrow we must go home. Eva Rainwater and Winnie Brantley left us to be married. Baccalaureate was May 17. Commencement was ,May 20. Those were rainy days, fthe torrents sped down our cheeksj.

THE AIM OF LIFE We live in deeds, not yearsg in thoughts, not breathsg In feelings, not in figures on a dial. We should count time by heart- throbs. He most lives Who thinks most, feels the noblest, acts the best. And he whose heart beats quickest lives the longest, , Lives in one hour more than in years do some Whose fat blood sleeps as it slips along their veins. Life is but a means unto an end, that end, Beginning, mean, and end to all things - God, The dead have all the glory of the world. - Philip James Bailey COMPLIMENTS OF W Corn Belt Hybrid Seed Company Phone 198 U S. 41 Boswell, Ind Listenin' In OLA P., Say what became of those old fashioned girls that fainted when a boy kissed them?

' AN AIM Give me a man who says p I will do something well, And make the fleeting days A story of labor tell. Though the aim he has be small, It is better than none at allg With something to do the whole year He will not stumble at all. Better to strive and climb And never reach the goal Than to glide along with me - An aimless, worthless soul. Aye, better to climb and fall, And sow, though the yield be sm Than to throw away, day after day, And never strive at all. through, all Boswell High School Band High School Chorus FIRST ROW, LEFT TO RIGHT: Berneil Matthews, Maxine Lockhart, Maxine Dun- bar, Thelma Redwine, Miss Hickman, Ollavene Jones, Doris Jones, Betty Pratt.

I 5 if fl., 2 'B English Department Our English department is like a car with a new driver behind the wheel-no- body escapes. Every student has been enrolled. During the first semester, grammar, rhetoric, and composition were stressed in all classes. Literature was taught the second semester in the Freshmen, Sophomore, and Jun- ior classes. Special attention was given to democracy as reflected in literature. New talent bubbled forth when the Freshmen wrote, directed, and produced a three-act play. Something new has been added. -Public Speaking and Bible classes are featured for Juniors and Seniors. The first speeches in Public Speaking were accompanied by earthquakes caused by knee-actiong but now the members, aged with experience, deliver orations that would make Patrick Henry stand aghast. 'Ihe members of the Public Speaking class were in charge of a P. T. A. program and they charmed the audience with a stirring drama C25 Who Gets The Car Tonight? The class in Bible, as the people they studied, experiented a lost feeling and many anxieties in their wanderings through the desert. However, their brilliance may be shown by the fact that they taught their teacher many things she had never known before. Library Surpassing the enthusiasm of the rush of '49 is the rush for the library after the attendance has been taken. Young pioneers sit at the edge of their seats, ready with scant equipment tsome with nothingj to storm the gateway to the wilds of the library, and lcse themselves behind book leaves. Our librarian chief is Miss Rosemary Breedlove, assisted by chieftain Ruby Hetrick. New material has been recently added which should help our graduates after they step into the Cold, cruel world. This material consists of a catalogue of occupational out- lines and books giving valuable information about various colleges. Girls' Glee Club The B. H. S. girls' glee club directed by Miss Hickman has quite a selection of songs and have made many public appearances. Their choice has ranged from classical to popular songs. Some of the more class- ical songs are Alleuja , and Gesu Bambino . They have also learned some pcpular songs, as K'The Shrine of St. Celia , The White Cliffs of Dover , and Deep in the Heart of Texas. In February they participated in the County Music Festival held at Oxford. The County Chorus sang - My Hero , All in the April Evening , Stout Hearted Men , and Lead Kindly Light . Our supervisor lead the chorus in the singing of My Hero. Home Economics Forty high sthool girls, nineteen eighth grade girls, and twelve seventh grade girls enrolled in the Home Economics department this year. During the first semester, the advanced Home Ec. class studied 'I'l'ie1 Planning of Food Needs for the Family so that the diet is adequate. The second semester they stud- ied I-Iome Nursing and Child Development. The first semester the Freshmen planned, prepared, and served meals. The second semester they studied selection of their own clothing and application of art principles to clothing. The seventh and eighth grade girls studied Sharing Home Life , each had a party for their mothers where the girls made and served refreshments, served as hostesses, etc. The school lunch is sponsored by the Home EZ. Department which has served ap- proximately 8,750 lunches, or 85 or 90 daily. Agriculture The Boswell 4-H Club has been very active the past year. The club has taken part in County Fair, State Fair, County Judging Contest, and District Judging Contest. The Beef Calf Club was well represented in the County and State Fairs. It took high honors in the County Fair, having champions of each breed. At the State Fair George Greivss had first place Heiford in 4-H and also in Open Class. The other classes were well represented as we took high honors in all divisions. Those showing at the State Fair were: Bob Lawson, Bill Lawson, Jim Carlile, Ellwin Liptrap, George Greives, Arnold Jones, Virgal Campbell, Jim Brier, and Joe Sigler. In the Judging Contests, Charles Whistler, Bob Carlile, and Bob Lawson repre- sented Boswell in the Poultry and Fgg Contest in County and District. Charles Whistler placed sixth as an individual and his team placed fourth in the Dfstrict et Greentown. In the livestock department Dale Nern and Robert Felix represented Boswell at the Dis- trict. Bob Felix plazed first as an individual -and his team placed thirteenth. In the Grain Department Thomas Felix and Joe Sigler represented Boswellat the District. Joe Sigler placed first as an individual, and his team placed first. Charles Whistler, Bob Lawson, Bob Carlile, in the Poultry Department, Dale Nern in Livestock Department, and Thomas Felix and Joe Siglsr in the Grain Department will represent Boswell in the State Contest in the Round Up at Purdue. This is a fine example of the work done by Vocational students, directed by Lowell Foster, at Boswell. Latin Department Six bright, wide-awake girls engaged this year in the study of the fell of Rome and the bust of Caesar. 'Ihe members of this class were, namely: Shirley Eldridge, Rose- mcnd Dallas, Myrtle Pratt, Carribelle Fix, Dorrette Walters and Myla. Hubbard. They appropriately dubbed themselves The Lattin Too, Too, Classy . The star pupil, Miss Shirley Eldridge, beat herself all to pieces at the County Latin II contest which was held at Boswell on February 28. She also placed first at the Dis- trict Contest at Crown Point on March 21, and as a result of this victory participated in the State Contest at Bloomington on April 18. Math Department Explorers into the realms of the unknown are the members of the beginning Al- gebra Class, consisting of the freshmen and a few under-clessmen who are armed for their expedition with x's, y's, and z's. Leading the party in these mysteries is Mr. Pitts. In the plane geometry class we see budding engineers starting out on their bright careers. This class consists of twelve sophomores who are taught by Miss Breedlove. During the first semester of this year, Bill Childress, Normen Graves, Wallace Hubbard, Bill Lawson, and Stewart Smith fascinated Miss Breedlove in their study of advanced algebra. Passing on into the fourth dimension, we find the advanced algebra class with Dorette Walters replacing Stewart Smith, studying solid geometry. This class has made models to prove its outstanding propositions. Instrumental Music The instrumental activities this year are centered around band and orchestra. The band is composed of twenty-seven members, and it has rehearsed regularly all year. It has played for basketball games and various other ociasions. The band made its first appearance as an organization this year st the Armistice Day Program, which has been sponsored by the band for a number of years. A selected group from the band provided an instrumental background for the Christmas program. The orchestra has twelve members and has had regular rehearsals in the school during the second semester. It has provided music for a number of crganizations and social functions throughout the community during the school year. Aside from these two high school organizations, a number of youngsters in the lower grades ere playing various instruments which will be used in both band and or- chestra when they reach the seventh grade. Pre-band instruments, knovsm as tonettes, have been purchased for use in the fourth grade. These instruments give valuable experience in ear training, sight-reading, and ffngering common to most of the Woodwinds. Four bend members graduate this year, Shirley Eldridge, Helen Gottschall, Mil- dred Hogue, and Cornelia Walter. Art Classes The art classes of Boswell High are very industrious. Among the many wonder- ful pieces of art they have made are clay pottery and animals, soap figures, wooden ar- ticles and linoleum blocks for printing. They also have studied famous painters and have had on exhibit many famous paintings sent out from Bloomington. Their teacher is Miss Hickman. History History, as one may know, is that study of stuff that happened so far in the pest, it is hard to think of thesc beautiful spring days - In the spring a young man's fancy lightly - , gosh, there we go again - Spring Fever! Well anyway, in the freshman year history is not taught. In the sophomore year, Mr. Burnett chases a caveman across the map, while at a nearby table, Napolean carves up the world, watrhing Luther at the mercy of the ciet of worms. Robert Fulton carries Mahatma Ghandi up the river in his steamboat to watch the battle of the crusaders. In the junior year, we study our own American History. When the teacher starts in on his one-man debate, Tariff for Protection or Revenue , most students enjoy a quiet slumber. That must be part of our American Heritage, a fond desire of sleep. At Least, we learned that Washington was the first President of the United S'a'es. Well, in the senior year, last but not least, we study civics, which is the study of what makes things go around today, including my head. Near the end of the year we made charts giving facts about loral, city, township. and county officers. Ir' weekly current events classes, the Juniors and Seniors enjoy a ringside seat in the biggest show the world has ever seen . Sparks fly as jokes are read, and the atmosphere clouds when none are found. Freshman - Sophomore Girls' Physical Education During the first semester the girls of the physical education class were engaged in baseball and basketball. fThse activities were held throughout the entire first semesterj. After the second term started it was decided that fcr the next six weeks they would indulge in volley ball. The Freshmen played the Seventh-Eighth grade class in an interclass tournament and were defeated by a score of 24 to 17 points. 'I'h3 Sopho- more girls best the Seventh-Eighth grade girls in a tcurney by a store of 17 to 33 points. During the fifth six weeks they took up social dancinf. The two main typ-es are the waltz and the fox trot. They used a phonograph to provide them with music. One of the eighth grade girls contributed a number of popular records which were used dur- ing the period and the noon-hour. During the last six weeks they took track, which consisted of baseball and basket- ball, hurls, jumping low hurdles, running short races, standing and running broad jump, and high jump. These classes are under the direction and supervision of Mrs. Clanin. Shop Classes Some of the Senior boys took advanced shop in order to gain credits for gradua- tion and possibly give them some help in defense training. There are thirteen in the Class, and they have done mechanical drawing for the first five weeks and are finish- ing the year by working in the shop on woodwork, on some metal work, end on elec- tricity. The metal and electrical work were limited because of the shortage of materials. Mr. Foster also had a farm-shop class which was composed of some of the Senior boys from the advanced shop classes. They have been working on gasoline motors, metal work, and woodwork. Mr. Smith had a beginning shop class composed of the freshmen wizards who have made electric lamps out of tin cans, and other articles too numerous to mention. They have had work in woodwork, and metal, and have been instructed how to sharpen their tools. Health and Safety What a class! What a class! We seniors began with the milder health problems which grew more complicated until we enjoyed a ride down the intestinal tract on a ham sandwich. After this thrill CID, the subjects either were not so technical, or we were only becoming accustomed to them. Health was spiced with a little safety. Here we learned how to revive a person who has been knocked out, and how to bandage his head when he was out too late the night before. The health class furnished the program for a P. T. A. meeting. A speaker came from Indianapolis to give a talk and to show quite unique movies about nutrition. Nu- trition poster books, made by each member of the class, were put on display. Chemistry This year B. H. S. has had a grand addition to its list of subject offerings. The new course, chemistry, is taught by Mr. Wilson who has had a wide chemical education and who has practiced chemistry es a hobby for many years. The shining glassware and multifarious apparati attraited ten students last fall. But since no gas could be installed for laboratory use, because of the shortage of cop- per-tubing, these students struggled through one semester of chemistry unable to use the equipment so willingly supplied them by the taxpayers of this township. Two mem- bers of the class dropped out at the end of the first semester. Gas was finally installed and the sparks began to fly. The drabness of second se- mester assignments has been greatly lessened by interspersing many interesting experi- ments. The students -- Helen Gottschall, Shirley Eldridge, Dorette Walters, Carribelle Fix, Rcsemond Dallas, Wallace Hubbard, Robert Lawson, and Norman Graves, agree that their year of chemistry hes been one of the most interesting, amusing, informative, and entertaining they have spent in high school. Commercial Department About 80 students, took some form of commercial work each semester of this year. The classes offered to the high school students were beginning and advanied typing, be- ginning and advanced shorthand, and bookkeeping. All of these classes and the indus- trious students were under the careful and patient supervision of Mr. Bell. Beginning typing students have studied various forms of problems in connection with the arranging of material of various types. This includes tabulated material, letter forms, etc. Accurace and correct technique featured the drill work for different groups. Myla Hubbard, Rhoda Fisher, Wallace Hubbard, and Harold Fleck were among the be- ginners to be averaging around fifty words a minute on five minute tests early in March. Advanced twping students had charge of putting out the school paper B, H. S. Hi-Lites , which was published twice a month during the first semester. When they did not work on the sihool paper, the class worked on office correspondence problems. The second semester found a group of Senior boys spending theirvtime brushing-up on their typing techniques before graduation. Twenty seniors have been engrossed in the study cf twentieth century book- keeping. These seniors have disturbed every other student and teacher during study periods, comparing additicn, counting their money, writing checks, end discussing each transaction. Thanks to the good-natured teachers! Work on the practice set the second semester was enjoyed by most of the class, partly betause of the play money that was handled in connection with this work. Both the beginning and advanced shorthand students studied the fundamentals of Gregg Shorthand. Dictation was given at sixty, eighty, and one hundred words a min- uteg and the students typed their transcription from their notes. In advanced shorthand, Elsie Barrett and Ollavene Jones received pins for passing eighty words e minuteg Mary Agnes Brouillette and Mildred Hogue received their sixty certificates. Ervelene Dowl- ing and Janice Fisher of the beginning class have passed a t-est and received their sixty certificates. 0 -'Q'-3Tf 5'P '9' --1 - ,+- ,S 6 Sf A 012, igtvv 'jx v Lf - 0 ., Qu- - 3 O gy, gg L L O?
