ACADEMIC CLASS 1913 l l lg HISTORY 'I Hli nineteenth of September, . IQOQ, was not an unusual date for anyone except a group of anxious boys and girls who gathered about the llridgeport lligh School. They stood and chatted, feel- ing very self-conscious and somewhat important, wondering what was in store for them within that strange building, Suddenly the doors were opened, the upper classes came pouring out, and amid cries of I lello Freshie, the waiting crowd filed up the high stone steps. Thus did the Class of ltjlg enter high school life. I suppose we were just as green as any Freshmen class ever was, in spite of our feelings of importance and our efforts to seem at ease. Once inside, however, we breathed more freelyg we had at least escaped from the upper classmen. Nlr. Simonds, in his kindly way, made us feel wel- come. Then we were assigned to various classes, and with strenuous efforts we went from room to room. XX'hen we were finally dismissed, we set off home feeling somewhat be- Eleven wildered, but proud,-at last we were high school pupils. ln the following weeks, we were kept busy adjusting ourselves to new hours and studies, but we soon became accustomed to high school ways, and the time slipped by until Klid-years came, bringing with them woe for some of us. Nevertheless, most of us survived the terrors of examinations and went on our way as before. The one incident of the second se- mester which impressed itself upon our childish minds was the Senior celebra- tion of Pigtail Day, which we remem- bered all too well. XYe, ourselves, did nothing especially noteworthy, and our first year, drawing to its close unevent- fully, left us looking forward to the time when we should be Sophomores. XYhen we came back in September, we felt very wise, and almost as im- portant as the Seniors. Early in the year, Mr. Simonds called us together for organization. The noise and con- fusion of our first class meeting have caused it to become one of the memor- able events of our history. After THE CRITERION drawing up a Constitution, we elected Mr. Murray president. He served us well, and is to be commended for pre- siding so ably over the turbulent meet- ings we had,-when there was a quo- rum present. NWC chose as our motto, Labor vincit, CLabor conquersl. During this year the boys in Room io, under the direction of lllrs. Sulli- van, formed a debating club, and held several successful debates, thus arous- ing in the school a decided interest in debating. With the coming of our .lunior year, we became more settled, and acquired the dignity befitting those who were going to be Seniors next year. The res- ignation of Miss XYitt made a change in the Faculty, and put the junior college room under the care of Mrs. Sullivan, who by her constant helpfulness, aided much in making our junior year a suc- cessful and happy one. At our elections we chose Mr. Lucey for our president. lie has served most ably and efficiently during both Junior and Senior years. Our first social ac- tivity was a Halloween dance held for the members of the class. The suc- cess of this affair'caused the revival of class dances in the school. During the year we decided on green and gold as our class colors, and chose our class pins. Since IQI2 marked the one hun- dredth anniversary of the birth of Dickens, we chose his life and works for the subject of our junior Day ex- ercises. The program was well ar- ranged and carried out to the satisfac- tion of both the class and the audience, especially one small member of the audience who insisted on voicing his approval during one of the recitations. After the exercises were Hnished, we adjourned to the lawn where we strolled about enjoying ice cream, cake, and unlimited conversation. ln the evening we gave a delightful dance which marked the close of a most pleasant and successful year. But though our junior year brought us much pleasure, it also brought us pain: for twice during the year the Death Angel bent low and summoned from our midst a classmate. One, Robert Dailey, was beloved for his sunny, uncomplaining disposition 3 while the other, Edward Klcliuire, was respected and admired for his cheerful perseverance in the face of great ob- stacles. The loss of two such young men as these was deeply felt by the class. And then came our last year with all its delightful times. Very early in the year the question of a class play arose. Our hasty decision to give one aroused the Faculty into warning us of the responsibilities attached to the giv- ing of a play, and into asking us to re- consider our decision. VVhile the ques- tion was under discussion among the members of the class, we girls rashly accepted the suggestion that we have a Pigtail Day at this time instead of waiting till late in the year. The boys, not to be outdone, decided to have Buster Brown Day on the same date. Tlhe celebration of Pigtail Day at this time was particularly unfortunate and drew down upon us much deserved criticism. Uur thoughtlessness might have cost us our Senior play, had not Mr. Simonds been lenient with us. With much enthusiasm we chose 'fThe Crisisll for presentation, giving the play on the sixteenth and seven- Twelve THE CRITERION teenth of January. Our efforts were rewarded with success both artistically and financially. VVe shall not soon for- get the stirring scenes of the play, nor the sweet, Winsome Virginia which Miss Beard made, nor the handsome, dashing Stephen portrayed by Mr. Lucey. Since the play, the time has sped on until now we are nearing the end of our high school life. Soon Commencement night will mark the parting of our waysg and soon our pleasant compan- ionships will be but pleasant memories. Len us, then, go out into the world courageously, firm in the belief that, the aim, if reached or not, makes great the lifef' --Louisa B. Cowuzs. ACADEMIC CLASS POEM, IQI3 There's a dear old school, on a very high hill, VVith great doors north and south: And the sun coming up o'er the east one day Chanced to peep in the window that faced that way For breaking the silence settled there He felt that music filled the air So drawing nearer without delay From his path in the heavens for once did he strait .Xnd wond'rous things he saw and heard For the very walls with joy were stirred As a song of the seniors of 19121 lYith rytlnnic cadence tlooded the scene: .Xnd thus to the listening sun it seemed:- Sing a song of seniors SX platform full you spy For they're so very wise and grave They'd surely catch your eye.

Several prophets of former years had dreamt ponderous dreams. while others had met with accidents that produced a condition quite proph- etic but none the less painful. Now to dream one must sleep, and although during my life I have both dreamt and slept and spent considerable time in so doing, yet I found that the faculty seriously objected to my doing either upon the premises. About this time the Senior latin class was studying the sixth book of Virgil in which Aeneas, with the great- est facility makes a trip to the here- after. Willy should l not do this? XYhy should l not paint in glowing Fifteen terms the immortality of the class of ioig? l set to work with the greatest enthusiasm, but my ardor was checked with a sudden shock as my first vision revealed l.ouis lllumberg shovelling coal into the largest furnace that l had ever seen. I realized that it would be necessary for me to confine my fancy within mortal bounds or else my re- marks would be altogether too per- sonal. On the twenty-fourth of .'X1DI'il.rlllIli CR1'r14:moN was issued. .Xccording to my usual custom. l was selling them in the rooms on the topmost Hoor, and had just completed my rounds with the exception of Dr. Stanley's laboratory which in the fifth period harbors the Senior chemistry division. I sighed as l thought of leaving the fresh, pure air of the corridor. but taking a deep breath, I heroically entered. The at- mosphere was blue and heavy. lt ap- pealed to all the five senses but Oh! THE URITERION how it penetrated, pestered, and par- alyzed the nose. I staggered here and there, making ,the wrong change and stumbling over everybody's feet. Raph Iiorf was shrieking something about the .Pequonnock river and he had evi- dently brought some of it along with him to substantiate his statements. I reeled from the room and fell weakly on the stairs. I lost my senses, but the same odor suggested by Raph's words lingered about my nose nor did it depart as I looked about me and saw that l was seated on the top deck of a small steamer that was puffing labori- ously up a river whose banks looked strangely familiar. I shook myself and then I remembered, to-morrow the great new high school of Bridgeport was to be opened and Chief justice of the Supreme Court, james D. Lucey, was to be the speaker of the day, and Bruce T. Simonds was to assume the duties which his father had lately re- signed. As the boat neared the wharf. I saw a crowd of people collected as if expecting its arrival. Ilut upon dis- embarking, I found that their attention was held in quite another direction. On one end of the dock, Raph Korf and Fred Ambrose were conducting a socialist meeting, while on the other, Lucy Disbrow, supported by the Misses Flynn, Barske, Fitzgerald and Pixley, was loudly proclaiming the su- periority of woman over man. XVhy look at that, she shrieked, pointing to a Figure crouching down in one corner and whom I recognized as Tommy Lashar, Ile hasn't earned a dollar since the day I married him. Tommy presented such a pitiful sight that I walked away from the dock and out upon a broad, well paved street. Upon the corner stood a man with a large sign llelp the blind about his neck. XYho should it be but jake Knopke! I approached him and cried hllello Jake, how are you?'l Imagine my surprise when he answered XVhy hello, Judge, I hardly knew you with your hair parted. jake and I began recalling our experiences in B. ll. S. and particu- larly those in that famous Ancient His- tory class. I learned that Pratt, Hall and English had gone on a search for a stone boat, while jenny Casey had written many popular songs of which the most renowned was entitled, That Smiling Rag. Jake also volunteered the information that llill Andres had become a famous baseball pitcher, al- though he could never play more than live innings without utterly losing his control. I remembered that Bill could never last a whole period without be- coming more or less wild. ' Leaving Jake, I continued my walk. On the opposite side of the street was the jewelry store of Amsel and Silver- stone, while next door, by accident I suppose, was a neatlittle candy kitchen run by the Misses XYilson, Miller, Lavery, and Cook. I was just about to enter one of these establishments-I hardly think it is necessary to state which one-when I heard a 'noise. And what a noise it was! The earth shook and the air vibrated. I expected at least to see an earthquake when who should come racing. rumbling, and rushing around the corner but Henry Stagg. XVith the help of two or three policemen, one of whom was George Ilrown, we brought him to a halt, 'l'hinking that he was in trouble, and that I might be of some aid to him, I inquired what was the cause for such Sixteen THE CRITERION unusual haste. My fears were soon al- layed when Henry calmly replied that he was just going out to lunch. I quickly accepted an invitation to ac- company him and also suggested that we add Frank Smith. Henry's soulful eyes immediately filled with tears and 'he led me in silence to the corner. There stood the old store of Radford R. Smith but its counters were bare and its windows untrimmed. A few articles of furniture were scattered here and there as if in a vain attempt to produce a homelike appearance. Standing over a stove in the corner and surrounded by several howling chil- dren stood my old friend Frank. I gazed at Henry and convulsed with grief, we both burst into tears. Henry sobbingly uttered three words which conveyed to me the terrible meaning of the sad picture before our eye, Florence Hanson-suffragcttef' Quietly we left the scene but our spirits were soon revived by the dis- tracting character of the adventures which befell us. Directly ahead of us, a Salvation Army meeting was in progress. Abe Schwartz was in charge of the drum, while the Misses Chichester, Conklin, Gallagher, and Hamilton did the singing. XYe arrived in time to hear Abe shout, Ladies and gentlemen, I take great pleasure in in- troducing to you a man who has been saved from the deepest depths of per- dition through the infiuence of this or- ganization. Allow me to present Mr. Louis Blumbergf' Amid thunderous applause, Louis rose, and with a gen- erous desire to let all the company gaze more easily upon his rescued soul he started to step majestically for- ward, but unfortunately he tripped and Seventeen fell on Abe's drum which collapsed like paper. Abe angrily demanded who was to pay for the damages, but Louis shouted that he would have Abe hung for attempted murder. Having be- come used to such occurrences in our school days, we did not wait for the outcome of the affair but proceeded up the street. A peddler whom I recognized as .lack McLeod tried to sell us a neck- tie, but as he had nothing but red ones in stock, we refused. Next we met Marshall De XVitt, who, without even greeting us, offered to fight us singly or both at the same time. XVe told him to call around after lunch and con-- tinued on our way. By this time we had arrived at the Waldorf lunch room. I expected that this would be our stopping place, but to my surprise, Henry walked right by. In answer to my inquiries, he said that the place was managed by the Misses Hopkins, DuBois, Beers, and Judy and was the Hnest restaurant in the city as well as the most expensive. I asked Henry to give me some idea of the rates which they charged. Chl they have no special rates, he replied, when you enter the door you just give them half of all you have in the world. I remembered that it always did take a lot of coaxing to get any- thing to eat out of the girls even in IQI3. At last we reached the Stratfield and proceeded at once to the dining room. From the menu cards, I learned that H. and C. McElroy were the managers and that the Misses Howe, McNamara. Shey, Newstrom, and Shine were in charge of the culinary department. The waiter was no other than Casimir THE CRITERION Miller. Casimir informed me that all the vegetables were obtained from the farm of Dorothy and Iilliott Smith down in Fairfield. After lunch, Henry was obliged to return to the boiler factory where he worked and I was left to myself. Al- most unconsciously I wandered across the street to Poli's theatre and read the bill for that week. The headliner was a musical skit entitled The Palace of Beauty in which that dainty come- dienne, Marion Sherwood, took the leading part. She was supported by such well-known stars as llen Spivak, Mabel Morrissey, Kitty Brown, Marion Healy and Alice llarrigan. The special novelty act was Cole and Rosenthal. This pair was guaranteed to speak twenty thousand words in ten minutes without stopping to take their breath, There were also on the bill Meehan and XYise, the famous cartoonists and the Misses Hangs, Cowles, and Mc- Maun presented a playlet entitled Stout, Stouter, and Stoutestf' I could not resist the temptation to attend such a notable performance and accordingly stepped up to the box office. Seeing no one around, I rapped sharply on the window and a voice from somewhere near the Hoor shout- ed, f'Dat's all rig-ht. don't get excited. I'll be up dere in a minute. Soon a woolly head ascended to the level of my own and I beheld the rosy coun- tenance of Fuzzy'l Ostrow. A closer investigation showed me that Fuzzy was obliged to use a stepladder in order to be on speaking terms with the patrons of Poli's popular prices. I asked him how business was for that afternoon and he replied in a confiden- tial manner. Positively great. All sold out except the first twenty-six rows. l purchased a ticket and entered. Cliff Comstock, with a nice gray uniform and a goodly quantity of brass buttons to make him look nice and big, held the position of ticket- collector, while the Misses Hall, Kil- course, Landry, and Treadwell acted as ushers. I went immediately to my seat and started to read the program. From this I learned that Hugh Taylor, Art Keating and Kenneth Christie were the scene shifters. Among the advertisements was that of Lonergan and Shannon, up-to-date clothiers. At this point, the performance began and it surpassed by far my expectations. After the conclusion, I stepped out upon Main street. A man advanced toward me, tapped me gently on the shoulder and asked me for a dime. It was Eric Begg. I could not refuse to aid an old classmate. so giving him a cent, l continued on my way. On the opposite side of the street was the pho- tography shop of Harold Adams while above that was the Colonial llall Room managed by 'Iames XValsh. Feeling rather thirsty, I looked around for a drug store, and seeing one only a short distance away, I approached it. A sign over the door announced that Morgan and XYhite were the proprietors. I en- tered and took a seat at the soda foun- tain. Maurice came forward and, after exchanging greetings,I asked him what was good for quenching the thirst. Ile informed me that Luippold's Luscious Lemonade and Murray's Malted Milk were on a par. I became sporty and took a glass of both. XVhile Maurice was waiting on another customer, I picked up a newspaper which was lying nearby. Opening to the woman's Eighteen THE CR page which was conducted by Miss Fennell, I read with interest Miss Allen's Daily Talk to Busy VVomen and also Miss Katherine Hill's 'fBeau- ty Banterf' Next I turned to the sporting page which was run by Howard Phillips, dean of baseball scribes. Large headlines announced the coming fight for the heavyweight championship between K. O. Russell and Kid Black. Last of all, I turned to the editorial page and learned that Don Root was the editor. There was an instructive article which was evi- dently a product of Don's brain for it was entitled The advantage of the bow tie over the four-in-hand. Among the advertisements, I read that Miss Beard was appearing in Shakesperian repertoire and that the Misses Carey and Colby were conducting a sanita- rium where rest and absolute quiet were assured. Maurice now came up and told me that he would be busy for the next half hour putting up a bottle of Castoria for a customer. Ac- until cordingly I departed, but not after I had inquired what had become of my old friend Bob Bishop. Maurice informed me that he was ticket agent at the local railway station and there- fore I bent my steps in that direction. The shades of night were just falling and the glimmering lights afforded an excellent background for the picture which at this moment met my eyes. Tenderly embracing a lamp post was old Bill Connelly. His pea green hat was tilted on one side of his head, his pink and green necktie was torn from his Devon collar, and in many other ways he looked sad and sick. But as I approached him, his poetic nature, ever imperishable. welled up within him Nineteen ITERION and he sang in that sweet, tender voice of his: H The stag at eve had drunk his fill, Where danced the moon on Monan's Rill. I smiled at Bill's honesty and straight forwardness and walked on in hopes of finding Bobby Bishop. In a short time, I had reached the station and I stepped up to the ticket window. A very pretty young lady stood ahead of me in the line, and when her turn came, she coyly asked Bob for a Strat-- ford ticket. After fumbling about for some time, Bob blushingly stuck his head out of the window and said apolo- getically, UI am very sorry to inform you, madam, that we have no tickets for Stratford, but we have some very, very nice ones for South Norwalkf' The girl hesitated for a moment and then replied that she would try some of the other stations first, and if she could do no better, she would return later. The girl was Dorothy Smith. I greeted Bob and congratulated him on his easy job. He admitted that it was fairly easy but complained that he encountered some very unreasonable people. As the man behind me was becoming rather impatient, I walked on. It was just six o'clock. The streets were crowded with pedestrians, their footsteps mingling with the clattering carts and rumbling trolleys. Main street lay before me with its myriad lights. How natural and how good it seemed. I glanced at my watch and saw that it lacked half an hour to dinner-ample time to take a look at the new High School. I hurried on with boyish expectancy and enthu- siasm. I pictured the imposing en- trance, the massive columns, and the X 1 and I THE CRITERION wardrobes in the basement.

H. S. As they neared the build- ing which should come to mean so much to them in the next three years, the sight of very learned and dignified countenances which gazed with un- suppressed mirth upon the passing tlock, tended to unnerve them. But remembering that There is safety in numbers', and with spirits now some- what subdued, the Commercial Class of IQI3 wended its way up the flights of steps and stairs leading to the As- sembly Hall. Although the great front doors were thrown wide with welcome, we had a secret feeling that they counted each one who entered there and shook their heads with a sigh. There are so many, what will we do with them all? they seemed to say. In the Assembly Hall we were wel- comed by Mr. Simonds, and initiated into the society of Freshmen by hav- ing impressed upon our minds what the school expected of us in our so- journ here, as well as the fact that An honest worker achieves good re- sults. It seemed, when we left the building, as though we had opened a new chapter in our lives with the title page before us. Returning in the afternoon, we were assigned class-rooms, and made ac- Twenty-one quainted with a list of books, one of which four German Grammarj taxed our powers of pronunciation to the ex- treme. Now the Hrst year of our High School life started in earnest. It con- tained the trials and tribulations of our predecessors, but as they had borne them bravely, so did we. VVe had many things to learn, among others the fact that zero plus zero does not make zero, but rather -IO. If you doubt this, you may consult any of us who have used a study period as a time of recreation and be convinced. VVe sighed over the x, y, z's which stubbornly defied our constant at- tempts to make them agree with the answer-book. Then we attempted to conquer Greece and Rome and over- throw the mighty Caesar. We dis- covered that we had still another battle to fight when someone brought a word into German Class consisting of 66 letters. The rule here seems to have been f'Don't make several trips out of one. Next came the mid-winter vacation, but the 'Kgrippe was not prevalent in our class and accordingly our number not greatly decreased. The second semester was much the same as the Hrst only that instead of pursuing fur- ther the lives of the ancients, we turned Room 3 into a Botanical Garden, with Beardsley Park as our chief source of supplies. Then ,Tune stepped in and turned THE CRITERION the first page of our High School career. The following September gathered us together again as juniors. How glad we were to meet again! VVe started in this year with renewed vigor and early in the year organized as a Class. VVe elected Mr. Hinderer president. A little later we chose a class pin and our class colors, black and gold, as well as our class motto, UHODIE NON CRAS, which means TODAY NOT TOMORROW.,' Our class meetings and good times during the .winter helped to make us better acquainted with our teachers and one another. VVe were enjoyably entertained at the Y. M. C. A. by Mr. and Mrs. Mathias, Miss Curtis and Miss Collins early in the winter. As a social success the winter was quite evident, Our lessons this year were a little more difihcult. It seemed -impossible, at first, to believe that a few queer looking characters called shorthand and made seemingly without theory, could have any sense. It was not long before we were laughing at our stupid- ity for supposing that anything in this age could be impossible. During this year we organized a Literary Club, using our unprepared English period for our meetings. De- bating seemed to be the favorite method of entertaining at these meet- ings, and many distinguished them- selves along that line. Later in the year the Academic Juniors extended us a kind invitation to join them on Junior Day, but be- cause of the inadequate means of join- ing two such large classes, we declined their kind invitation and held our ex- ercises in the open appropriate to the day. It was during this year that many of us, for various reasons, were intro- duced to that pleasant recreation called Study Hour in the Library accompany- ing this institution. If, perchance, that hour was from I2 until I P. M. we were consoled by the fact that we would be on time for the afternoon session at least. Now begins our Senior year, the year of superior dignity CPD and knowl- it is generally termed. XYe suddenly realized that we must make the most of the few remaining months here and the fond school-mates whom we should not distinguish by that fond title much longer. edge, as This year we elected Mr. Owens president, and we all appreciate his earnest and just fulfillment of that office. Early in the year we held a dance which proved a great success, and led us to hold another later in the year, which proved even more successful, both socially and financially. Our lessons this year, though more difficult, were a continuation for the most part of our junior subjects. The Commercial Law Class presented the appearance of a court-room wherein Mr. Mathias, after receiving argu- ments from all sides of the case, dis- posed of it, as the presiding judge.

But the truth is, it didn't bother me in the least. I felt confident that I would have a mysterious meet- ing with some prophesying Spirit be- fore the time appointed, and, with that rather doubtful, but comforting thought, I dismissed all care. But Time has a great knack of flying fast, especially when one wishes that it might linger, and for this reason, I awoke to the fact one day that there were very few more days left me in which to write my prophecy. Natural- ly, I wanted to begin this great im- aginary Talev of the future immediate- ly, but I had already resolved not to let another day slip by without reading a certain Shakesperian play which our English Class was to have for Liter- ary discussion the following day. So, to the library I went. Entering the large Study Ilall, with its surroundings that possessed none of those welcome Spring attractions for a High School student, I withdrew to a distant corner, where I had little trouble in making myself comfortable -in fact-too comfortable. Here it was absolutely silent, the condition which is essential to concentration- and which also brings on, drowsi- nation. I had presently finished reading the first few scenes of the play. which had introduced to me, characters with whom I might expect to associate Cwithl in the following acts of this noted composition. About to resume my perusal, I felt myself overcome by an attack of slumber-laden yawns, fol- lowed by a series of dull-gray clouds passing my blinking eyes. The sur- rounding book-cases, which seeming- ly had partaken of too strong Oolong, were gliding over the floor in all sorts of Tango dips and trots, and I was about to-when lo! magic reigned. Twenty-four THE CRITERION W'ithout the slightest hint or warning I suddenly found myself standing on a crowded thoroughfare, pushed and jostled in a dozen different directions by a hurrying mass of busy people. Partly dazed and only slightly con- scious of my movements, I looked about me, but all seemed strange and entirely unfamiliar. I know that the best thing I could do while in such a predicament would be to inquire of a policeman as to my whereabouts. Surely there must be one of these generally, unplentiful beings within close reach, for only recently had forty-three of Bridgeport's Hhuskysi' donned the '4Blue Jacket , of latest Spring fashion and set out on their ap- pointed beats , if for no other reason, to make our streets more attractive. Wiishing to escape the crowd and hoping for something to appear that might prove familiar to my perplexed eyes, I set out to cross the street, but I had scarcely left the curb, when I was saluted by a succession of honks from an approaching auto. I drew back to allow the impatient vehicle to pass, when who should the driver and sole occupant of this large car prove to be but I'Dutch',, better known at Old B. H. S. as Ed. Creagh. My -quest for something familiar was thus brought to an adrupt ending. In his old metaphodical way, Ed. asked me to test the upholstered seats for their comfort and f'just-rightnessu, and I, in my familiar I'm wise man- ner, carefully and comfortably seated myself on the soft cushions. Vkfe were soon speeding along the concrete pave- ment. N In times past, Ed. could tell the make of any auto that might come into Twenty-five view, from a Locomobile Landoletu down to a one-cylinder Liberty Brushw, so, naturally, I was anxious to know what his choice had been when purchasing an automobile for himself. Surely he had used good judgment, for his car was perfect in every detail. NVhen I finally put the question to him, I was quite surprised to be informed that it was a f'Creagh RO21ClSt6I'H-1926 Model, he having gone into that grow- ing industry. the construction of auto- mobiles. The Creagh Roadster seemed possible enough, but the IQ26- seemingly, I was following in the foot- prints of Old Rip. One of the special features of mech- anism connected with the car was a very elaborate speed-ometer. XYithout doubt, it was the product of some brilliant inventor's laboratory. Upon closer scrutiny, one might read: The Allen Speedometern the trade-mark being a zig-Zag stroke of lightning. XVillard Allen, at last, had found a suitable means for representing that extraordinary momentum that existed in all parts of his ever-hustling person. W'e soon approached a busy cross'- ing, and were halted by a Traffic Cop, or rather Copess, for it was a female. Ed. asked if I recognized the Qfficer of the Law, but not until a second glance did I recognize our former dashing blonde, Nellie Alling. Directly opposite her, in the midst of passing trolleys. speeding automobiles, bicycles and carts were her two robust assistants. Maud Seamans and Lillian Ryan. XYhile we were thus halted a car greatly resembling the one we were occupying, drove up near by. The two occupants of the car were Loretta Harrington and Phoebe Coles, now Ladies of Leisure. THE CRITERION My attention was presently drawn to a stout, rosy-cheekeci man, who was promenading the walk. Ile was carry- ing a very conspicuous article, a large pair of opera-glasses. Ed. chirped There goes Sammy and to be certain, it was Sam Lefkowitz, for who else could have such a rosy complexion? My curiosity concerning the opera glasses was satisfied when Ed. told me that Sam was a reporter on the Theatre Review , a local weekly, his descriptions of Musical Comedies, witnessed from the upper Gallery, being very elaborate. Another mem- ber of the paper's staff was Margarite Davidson, her Gigg,e Department' being the cause of many sm'iles and prominent dimples, false-teeth being sometimes affected. Of the advertisers of this periodical, Edythe O'Hara was the most generous. XVanted, A Husbandl' was the brief opening sentence of Edythe's Ad., followed by three full columns of requirements, describing just what he must and must not be. From all appearances, such a creature never was, for three years of continued advertising had not produced a single reply, or proposal. Noisily up the street came a large auto truck, filled with concrete blocks and bags of cement. I read in large letters inscribed on the side: XYILLIAM KOSENA iv CG., Concrete-Stucco N Plaster Supplies. Build a Little Bungalow ofthe famous Kosena Tiles. I afterwards learned that one of Bill's first contracts, after going into business, was to ship a large supply of concrete blocks and tiles to Alliance, Ohio, where a beautiful home was con- structed of them for our former school- masters, Mr. and Klrs. L. B. Mathias. They were now retired from school teaching, and received daily, interest- ing accounts of their former pupils' success in the Business XVorld. Riding in a Creagh Runabout seemed to bring on a hungry feeling, so Ed. suggested that we manger , I needed no coaxing, and after Ed. had safely stored the buzz-car in a near-by garage, we set out in search of a restau- rant. XYe had not walked far when we approached a very cozy looking dwel- ling, an overhead sign reading: The just-Like-llome Dinery Concluding that such a place would satisfy our wants, we entered, and took seats at a table just inside the door. XYhile figuring out a dinner, according to the menu card, we were interrupted by a shuffle of skirts and French-heels, then a white aproned damsel approached the table we were occupying. Only one glance was necessary to prove that the wearer of this 'fChild,s-liken paraphernalia was Helen Quinlivan. Ilaze1', told us that three former B. H. S. girls were her partners, Agnes Jacobs, Laura Labre- cque and Sadie Silverman, and that on every XVednesday evening, they enter- tained their many customers with a 'fCabaret Shown, Sadie playing the piano, Laura singing popular Parisian airs, and Agnes assisting with comi- cal recitations. Not saying how she helped, I suppose Helen kept account of the money. IYhen I asked her if she and her partners intended to continue in this line of business, she laughed and gave Twenty-six THE CRITERION me to understand that their present undertaking was simply an experiment. The object of the four partners was to get an insight into the mysteries of before settling bungalows, to cooking and serving, down in suburban cater to life-partners. Vkfhen we were paying for our de- lightful repast, we met the other mem- bers of the partnership of Bachelor Girls, and began to compliment them on their good serving and cozy dining- room, but our conversation soon turned to H. S. grads. and their where- abouts. They related that Fred Owens called around occasionally when in town on business, being manager of one of the largest Lumber and XYood Supply Companies in the East. Some- times he was accompanied by his for- mer stenographer, afterwards his house-keeper, Mrs. Tilly Johnson Owens. Once in a while, the just-Like-Home Dinery would have for its honored guests. three stenographers who were employed by prominent local business concerns. This trio had received their instructions in their valuable art at B. H. S. and were: Edith Lingard, Fanny Pious and Margurite Dell. Another means of telling of the present doings and locations of some 'I3's. was a business Directory, which was lying on the cashier's desk, pub- lished semi-annually by the XYeiss- Vlfishengrad Information Bureau. Helen VVeiss and-Rose Vlfishengrad al- ways were good at such work, particu- larly Current Events. This Agency was patronized by many of the agents' former school-mates and as we glanced through the different sections, we noticed some very interesting ads. Twenty-seven On one of the introductory pages wasthe following in large print: THE MAPLES' latest novel by that noted Authoress, Bessie O'Neil fat all Book Storesjs Apparently, Bessie O'Neil had be- come famous as a writer of modern fiction and true-to-nature tales and descriptions. Further on in the directory, we found this: Misses Hoey and llammil Latest Spring Millinery in all of the Seasons' most approved' shapes and sizes. At last, Ruth Hoey had gone into the Hatter's Business. Back in B. H. S. days, many often wondered at the number of hats Ruth had, for she seemed to wear a different one every second day. Edith Hammilis being her partner was not wholly surprising, for as seat mates, they were almost in- separable. In the Musical Section of the edition, a conspicuous ad. proved that Ethel Seamans had found good use for her talent, for we read: Piano Lessons, by the Famous Instructor Mlle. Ethel Seamans, 35 per hour. After promising that we would call again when in the neighborhood, we left the restaurant, and headed down street. At a news-stand Ed. stopped to purchase a paper, and while he was doing so. I viewed the many maga- zines on display. On one of the covers was a picture by Harrison Fisher of a pretty country girl. There THE CRITERION was something familiar about the charming face that drew my attention and on second look, I came to the con- clusion that it was none other than our famous Class Beauty, Etola Sandiford, now a very popular model, always in demand. In this magazine was a Fashion Department, edited by Kathryn Blackman, a damsel of great style. From a side street, the familiar and unmistakable strains of the Salvation Army Band could be heard, and as we had no particular place to go, We de- cided to give these industrious people a visit. In order to get to the source of this music, if it might be- called such, we had to pass through a sort of ar- cade, the principal feature of which was a ver-y large motion-picture and vaudeville theatre, the name of which was: The Thirteen Grads. The oddness of the name drew my special attention, my Hrst thought being that it was named and managed by a Gradl' family, thirteen in num- ber. Evidently, I was a poor guesser, for when Dutch' began to praise the suc- cessful musical pupils of our former Class of '13 I learned that four of them now managed and owned this theatre. john McCarthy was the business manager and stage-director, while the music was furnished by the famous Flint Orchestra, Clarence Flint, Di- rector. Frank Gillane, a talented man- dolinist was also a member of this musical group. Of the soloists, Irene Havrilla was the premier, her voice having been trained and cultivated by the leading vocal teachers of the East. Edfs opinion was that these four had gone into business in order to accumu- late enough of the United States Five- cent pieces to enable them to go abroad and develop their arts more extensive- ly. At last, we arrived at the Open Air Meeting and to my great surprise, who was mounted on a small platform, de- livering a speech, but Frank Speer. IVhy, where have you been all this time?l' Ed. inquired of me, seeing my surprise. Why, Speer has become one of the greatest Salvation Army Men and Temperance speakers that ever stood on a barrel and sang. Just now, he is predicting that the end of the world will come next week, but when next week comes, he will speak upon the eternity and everlasting ex- istence of this great planet on which we live. VVhen he is not stump- speaking, he is doing Boy Scout work, for he is a Thirty-Third Degree Mem- ber of that organization. Ed. talked so long, and so eloquent- ly, I was beginning to think that he was wasting his time with automobiles and that he should join Speer in Life- Savingf, Satisfied that Speer had made a name for himself, regardless of nature, we left him to his hobby , and set out towards town. XYhile passing a book-store on the Main street, our attention was attrac- ted by a large show-card, which was in the window, surrounded by a num- ber of expensively bound books, and which read: f'The Famous Du Barry Tales by Du Barry Himself. The contents of these editions consis- ted mainly of the life of john De- Twenty-eight THE CRITERION Barbieri, from the time he left B. H. S., to the period of composition. .-Xt schools close, not being content with ordinary office and clerical work, John started in the photography busi- ness, but because of the brittleness of his plates, he was unable to turn out satisfactory pictures. ln olden times, he also had very much trouble with his pictures along this line, The Plate broke being the general excuse. He afterwards opened a Dancing Academy, thinking that he might have greater success at this undertaking. but because of the peculiar hops and trots'l that his pupils acquired from their instructor, he lost his repu- tation, and hung up the Hbankruptn sign. Assuming the name Count Du Barry, this being re-inforced by a Upointed mustachel' and a monacle, he landed in Europe-I know not how, perhaps via a Cattle Boat-and was about to take his first step in London Society, when two American travelers, Miss Russell and Edwards, not knowing of his masquerading and change of name, betrayed his secret, the result being that john was ostracized. Financially broken, he set to writ- ing a book of his misfortunes and, luckily, succeeded in having it pub- lished. But, as the contract with the publishers was merely on a royalty basis his becoming a millionaire was still but an air-castle. Fd. wished one of these books for his library, so we entered the book-- store. At one of the counters Miss Bauman was head clerk and. as l re- garded her, somehow, she did not look natural. At the i'OfHce Supplies counter, Florence Craddock was sales- Twenty-nine lady and as she crossed over to regis- ter a certain sale, she stood at the side of Miss Bauman. Vtlhat a change, I thought, had come over their appear- ances. Separated, they appeared strange, but when together, as they al- ways were at B. H. S. they looked per- fectly natural. Another book on sale, which interes- ted us, was: Seeds, and How to Sow Them by Anna Schmidt. Miss Schmidt, who journeyed from l'lattsville. was now managing a 'fSchool of Farming at Fairfield, and in her leisure hours, wrote books which might prove helpful to the outside world. Her assistant at the school was Miss O'Brien. whose hobby was The Study of Potatoes. M'e once more found ourselves on the Main street and as a car passed, noticed it was labeled: To the Airadromew Flight at Three Wishing to end the day with some- thing exciting, we boarded the car, and., after a short trip towards the sub- urbs, landed at a large, open, meadow. presently crowded by a mass of ex-- cited sightseers. At one side, we noticed a small tent, and, thinking that this was occupied by the aviator, pre-- paring for flight, we wedged our Way through the crowd. VVhile so doing, we met Miss XYhaley, note-book in hand, making a report of the proceed-- ings. She told us that she was on the editorial staff of the Outlook , her writing name being Ophelia Upon reaching the entrance of the tent, who should we see, attired in an air-man's costume but Bill McDermott. THE CRITERION In his usually gentle way, he gave us one of his friendly hand squeezes- we were ashamed to holler,vand ex- pressed his surprise at seeing us. He told us that his present occupation was well adapted for his excitable tem- perament and that he would not be satisfied with his accomplishments until he had successfully made a loop- the-loop in mid-air. As it was about fifteen minutes be- fore the appointed trial, we set to talk- ing' about Hold timesf, VVhere's Porter now? I asked. 'Z-Xfter Porter graduated, he worked a year for a Bridgeport concern, but in IQI5, attended the VVorld,s Fair at San Francisco. At this world famous exposition, he had a booth, selling gold bricks to the visitors, especially, those who retained the appearance and odor of hay-seed. Having' accumu- lated a sufficient fortune, he settled in lower California, making a specialty of the Poultry Business, his principal at- tention being' directed towards the raising of choice 'fchickensf' Hill was a little disappointed when I did not express surprise at the unusual solitude of Nels life, but I told him that I never knew Nels Porter to be lonesome while there were 'fchickensu around. , The time for flight soon came and Bill asked if we would like to take a little trip. Ed. refused to take a chance but after Bill solemnly promised not to practice his loop-the-loop feat with me as his passenger I consented to ac- company him. Amidst the cheers and applause of the spectators, the propeller was start- ed, and, gradually, the machine rose above their heads. XYith unusual smoothness, we soared higher and higher and were soon floating among the clouds. For some reason or other, the peace and quiet of this f'Old Maids' Paradise was injurious to the machines movements. Something connected with the engine refused to work, and, at a speed that could not be calculated by an Allen, Speedometeru, we descended towards mother earth. Directly in my path, I could see an inviting church steeple, tipped by a very sharp lightning rod, and I was just about to perch on this attractive resting place, when I suddenly awoke. finding myself in a rather awkward position on the library floor. Gladly. I returned from a wonder- ful visit to the Land of The Future, whose inhabitants were I3. H.

It is the sweet remembrance of such past events which fills the hearts ofthe graduating class rather than the ex- pectancy of an uncertain future. Ilut, as was mentioned in the last issue of the CRLTI-zierox, this wave of sentiment need not entirely roll away after graduation. At the annual din- ner of the .Xlumni Association there is a splendid opportunity to renew friends ships and to exchange reminiscences, and the Alumni Drama Club offers an excellent advantage for social ming'- ling as well as for displaying histrionie talent. Therefore it is greatly to be hoped that the class of 11313. although no longer an incorporate body of IZ. II. S.. will avail themselves of these oppor- tunities to prove that they are loyal and true supporters of their Alma Mater. sfsfsf' Illi following' have been chosen as members of next year's Llnlrrlixiox Iioard and in September this body will elect their own onticers.

H. S. eleven had put the finishing touches to a 34-0 victory over Norwalk H. S. in the first game of the season, it was generally admitted that the team looked good. If anyone had suggested that B. H. S. was to meet defeat in all of the remaining games, he would have found himself engaged in a rather warm argument. yet that is just what happened. Stam- ford and New Britain High Schools won hard fought games and even lowly Meriden came in for a 25-I3 win. The Springfield H. S. and New Haven H. S. games were too one-sided to be inter- esting, and by far the most interesting game of the season was the last, with Hartford H. S. at Newfield Park. Here victory seemed to be coming our way but a fumble spoiled the chance. However, though beaten in all but one game, the boys tried hard under the tutelage of Mr. Lush, but injuries and some hard luck kept the number of wins down. Those making Bs this year. under the regime of Manager jerry Murphy and Captain Lynch were. beside the two just named. Andres, Jepson, Cosgrove, Lalley. Corcoran, Gregory, Black, Taylor. Lee. Barrows, Lucey, ' lf. Denny, Ervin, Ilurley, and Day.

Walker, Secretary, Naugatuck Valley Ice Co., Bridgeport, Conn. Dear Sir : Enclosed please find report on the sample of ice submitted by you on the 15th inst. The results show that the ice is excellent both in appear- ance and quality and I have no hesitation in recommend- ing it for domestic use, my opinion being based upon the enclosed results and an inti- mate knowledge of the reser- voir from which the ice was harvested. This ice is low in mineral and organic content and the appearance of the ice is very satisfactory. The number of bacteria are very low and no objectionable types found. This ice is entirely accept- able both in appearance and quality and should make an excellent supply for domestic use. A Very truly yours, QSignedj JAS. A.
