PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS Members of the Faculty: Parents and Friends: You are here today because of your interest in the members of the class of 1922. During the last four years you have aided us by your advice and encourage- ment in keeping our goal before us, and now that we have attained that goal we wish to express our appreciation and grati- tude. As we go from here into the world may We not forget that we have yet to prove Ourselves, and may we carry with us the thought as expressed by Kipling: as If you can force your heart and nerve -and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you, Except the will which says: 'Hold onl' Yours is the Earth and everything tl1at's in it 'And-which is more-you'll be a man, my son. Our high school days are over but whether we plan to enter college or go di- rectly to some line of business our edu- cation is not over. For in a large sense every day we live holds a new lesson, a cor- rection oi yesterday's mistake, the preven- tion of tomorrow's. And though in our school work we have touched upon many subj ects, yet in this, our senior year, we have only just begun to realize how much we do not know. lust as the amount and kind of work a man does is the measure of his health, so the amount of earnestness with which one goes at these daily tasks is the measure of one's success in life. We have worked hard for this day. But now it is here we cannot, as loyal graduates of B. H. S., feel wholly joyful. Associa- tions of our four years in higlI school will always remain dear to us and years from now we shall have memories of the pleasant times we have passed in this ivy- covered building. It is with pleasure we receive our diplomas, but with regret that we leave our alma mater. 5 We are leaving this school at a time of great opportunities in the business world in general. While there is great call for experienced men and women there is also an increasing demand today for young men and women. Heads of large concerns are eager to give youth a chance, and now as never before these young men and wom- en are entering positions of responsibility and inliuence. With the preparation they have received in B. H. S. the members of this class should be well litted to train for these higher positions. But in whatever phase of work we enter, whether in busi- ness or at college, let us be true to those ideals for which our school stands and on all occasions throughout our lives let us strive To be, not to seem. Speaking for the class of 22 I am proud to have the privilege of extending to you all a most hearty welcome to the 60th Class Day exercises of the Brattleboro High School' -WILLIAM E. MORETON. THE IMMIGRATION QUESTION Class Essay At the present day when the world is in a turmoil due to war and results of war, one of America's most important prob- lems is that relating to immigration. This question which concerns the happiness, prosperity, and welfare of a large number of people in the United States and in other countries, should be carefully worked Out. In order to do this, it is necessary to study the character of the old and new immigra- tions. During the late 18th and early 19th cen- turies, the immigrants- came for religious, political, and economic reasons. They came from the British Isles, Germany, and Scandinavia and settled in New York, Pennsylvania, and the South. It was a peasant immigration and built up an ag- ricultural, home-seeking, land-owning civ- ilization, and the people brought to the United States the Teuton qualities of per- sistence, adaptability, and will-power, which have had a great influence on the character and progress of America. From 1870 on, Southern, Eastern, and Central Europe have furnished most of our immigrants. These persons have come on account of the high wages received in the growing industrial and mining sections of the United States and because Of the crowded conditions in their Own coun- tries. Although all the people of America are immigrants or descendants of immigrants, many of them are hostile to the new set- tlers, and the Teuton stock protests against the rapid increase of Italian, Slavic, and Oriental immigrants.

ANNA FLEMING, Ann. Her voice is ever soft, gentle, and low3 An excellent thing in woman. Anna is very musical and a jolly girl. One of,her chief delights is waiting until it's about 7:5955 a. m. and then showing us how quickly she can get from Oak Street to school. We be- lieve she could beat Sherburne in the 100-yard dash!
