We, the members of the Aumlix Staff of 1924, have tried to make our AGLAIA a bright one. Through the untiring' efforts of the editor-in-chief and the associate editors this book has been published, and it is their Wish that you read what pleases you and pass over what displeases you. The book may not be perfect, but please do not criticise it. We have put our best into it to make it worthy of the name Au1..x1.x. In years to come it will be on the shelves of the M. H, S. lib1'ary, and pupils may read it and see what life was like at M. H. S, in 1924. Seniors, do you realize that the Acimii is our class book, of which we are proud and to which we will look back when the bark of life is nearing port and the sailor is almost home, for this little book will live until The stream will cease to flowg The Wind will cease to blowg The clouds will cease to fleetg The heart will cease to beatg For all things must die.

The team was scheddled to play strong teams and was obliged to play as many as three games in a week, but none-the-less they wele victorious in all but one and usually by a large margin. .Their one defeat, and that by N. H. State Freshmen, a college team, lacked only two points of being a tie. However, on their next appearance on this same iioor to play for the N. H. Championship they amply redeemed them- selves by 'defeating Hanover in the finals. A basketball trip outside of New England depended upon their win- ning this championship and acted as' an incentive. Their next step was the New England Tournament, and with only a week's interim between the two tourneys, in which time they played several games, they departed for Tufts College, where the struggle was to be played off. Here again the quintet was recognized as a pos- sible winner and worked its way up to the semi-Hnals. At this point the strain of a hard season and of the previous tournament was detectable. The boys lost to Brockton in a hard-fought game, but so close was the scoring that one more basket might have changed the outcome entirely. However, they had more than earned the right to a trip, and, after much parleying, plans were made for the team five and two subs to journey to the National Tournament at Chicago and for a sight- seeing tour en route. As before, descriptions of how such and such a team had gone down before our team began to fill the papers. lvlanchester was working steadily up. Before the excite- ment of her being one of the eight remaining teams had subsided, rumor came that she was one of the leading four. It was velified and Manchester was jubilant, Her losing to Windsor, the national champions, ale though a disappointment, was by no means a damper to our city's enthusiasm. It must be pointed out here that in this tourney, as in the one at Tufts, it took the real champions to beat them. A glowing description could be given of their triumphant return, with brass band, speeches and everything, if space permitted: but it must suflice to say that Manchester went crazy, as one of the team expressed it. As with the football team, too much cannot be said for or about the qualities of the team as a whole and about each member individually. Each one of the play- ers deserves the highest of praise, but We can only say that their record is their superb monument and will al- ways stand as a tribute to the best team that has ever represented Manchester. It iemains to be seen how next year's team will till up the gaps left vacant by our class representatives: Graf, Langdell, and Murphy, y - A G L A I A l'ng:4' Sixfy-Four Page Sixty-Five AGLAIA g GIRLS' BASKETBALL The girls' basketball season, along with the rest of the athletic seasons, can certainly be called successful. For many years the girls had been conltent to get along with- out any share in the renown of Manchester High ath- letics, but this year the more ambitious girls got to- gether and decided to create a team. There was much enthusiasm and eagerness and certainly no lack of candi- dates, for some thirty reported for the Hrst practice. The hrst important step taken was the securing of an able coach. Nor did the girls have to make an extensive search, since Miss Margaret Sheehan volunteered to devote her valuable time. Miss Sheehan is very well fitted for the position of coach, being herself a player of much renown on the noted Y. W. C. A. team. The making out of the schedule was a hard task, be- cause it was diflicult to Kind many girls' teams in the near vicinity which played on a three-division floor with six girls. But Esther Eno, the manager, with the ath- letic manager's aid, succeeded. in arranging games with the best schools in New Hampshire. Madeline Pick- wick, the side-center, was elected captain and her va- rious little speeches were amusing, even though given in a very serious manner. - The girls weie victorious in their Hrst game at Nashua and in most of those following. Perhaps the most thrilling games to witness and play in were the two with Tilton. Tilton was worsted at Manchester, but several weeks later, when the Manchester girls were guests az Tilton, the outcome was reversed, This, the Keene Nor- mal, and the game with Swampscott were the only ones lost by the girls, out of the ten which were played--a remarkable standing for a team with no players of pre- vious experience! Many subs were put in the last game at Concord as a reward for faithful practice. At a meeting the Athletic Council decided to recog- nize the girls' team and letters were presented to the following players: Madeline Pickwick, Esther Eno, Elizabethv Warren, Leona Cross, Celia Gallagher, Janet Shaw, Clara Lemay, and Louise Steele. r -f- - AGLATA Page Sixty-Six TRACK Manchester High School again distinguished itself in athletics by participating at Durham and capturing, within a year, its third consecutive New Hampshire title, namely, the New Hampshire State Interscholastic Track Championship. This achievement conclusively proves that Manchester High School possesses a group of ath- letes which constitutes not only an excellent tiibute to both coach and players, but which also bespeaks an in- herent school spirit which is content with nothing but the championship. It is interesting to note that in the school Inter-Class Meet the class of 1924 won its fourth successive victory, due largely to the fine work of Captain Ralph Langdell and Ralph Humphrey. As a track man and also as a football and basketball player, Langdell has made a name for himself that will live forever in the annals of the history of Manchester High School's Athletics. BASEBALL After Manchester had tlnished an exceptionally long and strenuous basketball season, Coach McDonough, our superb athletic coach, immediately started in with base- ball, despite the fact that the usual recess between the two sports was ignored. However, he quickly assembled a baseball team, which has seen but one defeat, and which has displayed a brand of baseball that is worthy of Manchester's reputation. The games were marked by the excellent playing of our foremost athletes, Ken- neth Graf and James Murphy. These two players have been the mainstay of Manchelster's baseball team for the last three years. Besides having been the captain of both football and basketball teams., Murphy has dis- tinguished himself in track, thereby attaining that cov- eted honor of being a four-letter man. Kenneth Graf, who is a brilliant student as well, has also acquired a fame in football and basketball that is truly worthy of his transcendent ability and popularity. Inge Qixty Qex en A G L A I A 'FOOTBALL In fooltball Manchester' High School truly made an auspicious start on its triumphant course in the realm of athletics by producing a flawless record, and as a re-- sult winning the New Hampshire State Football Champ- ionship. The playing of the Green and YVhite was really remarkable in that the team functioned as a machine so perfectly that its defense was absolutely impenetrable. as the results clearly exemplify. and consequently Man- chester's goal line was never crossed. After having readily disposed of the first four or Hve games, which included some fast teams, Manchester was prepared to meet Brockton High and make up for the defeat of the previous year. Brockton was reputed to possess a team which was classed among the speediest in New England. As was to be expected. Manchester attained its objective and defeated Brockton, 7 to 0. The Green and White now easily completed its glori- ous football season, and in appreciation of its efforts the team was offered the chance to play the leading eleven of either the South or the Middle West in order to decide the championship. The Manchester players, however, modestly refused the offer and were presented instead with miniature gold footballs, which bear the inscription of one of the most Wonderful football seasons in the history of the school.

Out of the six in the club three were Seniors, Alexander Appelman being president, Margaret MacGregor chosen as the best speaker in the debate con- ducted here, and Esther Guilfoy as the best speaker in the debate conducted at Derry, These Seniors should be duly praised for their share in organizing the club. We hope that next year much more interest will be taken in debates, for certainly much good is gained from them by both the debaters and their audience. Especially after such a splendid start this year, the Debating Teams ought soon to bring back to M. H. S. the silver cup awarded to the best club in the State.

I LITERARY CLUB F P EHW M JZ Page Seventy-Seven AGLAIA THE LITERARY CLUB In 1923, under the supervision of Miss Katharine Sheridan, the Literary Club, an honorary society, was organized. Esther Guilfoy, '24A, was elected presidentg Margaret MacGregor, '24A, vice-presidentg Mary Parfitt, '24A, secretaryg and Helen Coldwell, '24A, treasurer. The purpose of the society was both to promote greater interest in literature and to provide opportunities for social gatherings for its members. Many and varied were the programsfranging from literature, music, dramatics and debating, to socials and hikes. The members, enjoying the interesting work of the Club, co-operated heartily. Due to this support, the society became powerful. Notwithstanding the appre- ciation of the members, the school, as a whole, was for some time sublimely unconscious of the Club's existence. But the Club was soon recognized. At one ot' its meetings, the president of the Senior Debating Society issued a challenge to the girls to debate before assembly. Then it was that the Literary Club was put on the map, so to speak. The Junior girls, who had had no previous experience, won the decision over the boys. Henceforth there was applause in the Assembly Hall whenever it was announced that the Literary Club would conduct the gathering. Thr' Jluu from lhvmrlon, was the play presented before the school that June. After the Summer vacation, we returned, Seniors-- but the Literary Club was a Junior organization. Still, there were so many requests that the Club be continued that it was finally re-established as a Junior-Senior insti- tution. Margaret MacGregor, '24A, was elected presi- dentg Eunice Sproat, '25A, vice-presidentg Mary T. Sul- livan, '24A, secretaryg and Ruth Bosse, '25A, treasurer. Later in the year Lucy Broderick, '24A, was elected to till the vacancy caused by Miss Bosse's absence. The first event of the season was a Hallowe'en party, at which the Juniors were initiated by the Seniors. That memorable night stands out in both Junior and Senior minds. Literary and social work, similar to that of the previous season, was carried on a larger scale, In assembly two plays-Thr' 0ourt.el:'ip of Jlilfw Sfunflish, and Much Arlo A bout ivlifflfllfl,-kSh0WBd that there was considerable talent in the club. We are greatly indebted to Miss,Sheridan for her able coaching in these attempts. The season passed successfully. Regular pins, de- signed by a member of the society, have now become a part of the Literary Club regalia. The last meeting, a farewell party given by the Juniors to the Seniors, was the scene of an impromptu debate on the question: Re- solved, That the Seniors are of more importance to the school than the Juniors. The points were well illus- trated by the use of examples taken from the studen body. Of course the debate was a farce, but it will go down in the annals of the club. As is the custom, the last gathering will be a general good time-a hike and probably a swim. As the AGI,.KI.k goes to press, we are still a bit uncer- tain about future plans, but we hope that future stu- dents of M. H. S. may enjoy the pleasures that we have enjoyed in the society. May the Literary Club forever hold its place in the hearts of the students of M. H.

At almost every Wednesday morning assembly the Orchestra has played for us, and one morning the Glee Club sang several selections, Nor have their activities been limited to school affairs, for at many of Manchester's concerts this year we have seen the Glee Club girls in their well-known white uniforms, acting as ushers, ably helping the concert-goers to find their designated seats. As in other years, the Orchestra has played at many affairs outside of school, but 1924 will go on record as the first year in which its playing has been heard far beyond the city limits, for at the Electrical Exhibit at the Institute this Spring, its music was broadcasted by radio. The biggest thing, however, attempted by these or- ganizations this year was the operetta, The Wild li'o.w-, A great deal of work was put into the preparation of this and the audience who witnessed its final presenta- tion in the Practical Arts High School agreed that it was exceptionally well done. The Glee Club has had its regular meetings through- out the year, with Ruth Abbott as president, Zatae Straw as vice-president, and Charlotte Codaire as secretary. ,E U it !Iu,,,.Hy5NNl1y1Wr My HHH! , V WMM 4' A A QOMES V' ' SCIENCE e U X! f mm-411 f., 4 Yum 1 X V , wwf! , -ff' f m J W' W-1 .. ..

Many people have the idea that do- mestic science is merely a study of cooking and sewing, but perhaps they have never stopped to think of how an average housewife can carry out her domestic duties with just a knowledge of these two subjects. She may never have had the opportunity of a school education, but in some way, usually through various housekeeping magazines, has acquired some facts about the things she must know in managing her home. Any girl, then, who has had the unusual chance of being able to study do- mestic science in high school is fortunate in that she is prepared for her future work, be it teaching, nursing or remaining at home. The modern domestic science course not only includes a thorough study of cooking, both domestic and invalid cookery, but it offers a helpful and interesting study of sewing, household appliances, bacteriology, physiology, and practical home nursing. Do not all domestic science girls of M. H. S. verify these statements? 4 AGLAIA HOW' SPHOOLS HELP How does a school help to make a good citizen? I ask myself. As a sequel this question follows, t'What are the requirements of a good citizen? A good citi- zen should be, we know, morally, physically, socially, intellectually, and sometimes politically, capable to per- form his duties. Does a school help to promulgate these qualities? How? The school age is the formative stage of life. The lessons one learns in early adolescence make a profound impression upon him in later years. The school is an accessory of the church in raising the ethical standard of the youth of the nation. In all professions one Ends rascals, but among the teachers there is seldom any im- morality. Usually an instructor feels it incumbent upon himself to set a good example for his pupils. Accord- ingly, he keeps his morale as perfect as possible, in or- der that it may influence those under him. Children of the streets are often subject to terrible conditions. The school, in its way, counteracts the evil effect of the gang and street corner loiterers. Ample proof of this lies in the fact that poor boys have succeeded in the world, because the school-probably only a primary in- stitution-has served as an incentive to greater enter- prises. The reason for this is that in the school the right moral principles are inculcated, with the result that honor, friendship and patriotism replace the lower instincts of the street. Surely, America needs citizens whose moral standard is high. Physically, schools are proving a boon, Undexnour- ished children are fed and nursed. Rules of hygiene are learned. Proper physical exercise is stimulated by the 1 Page Eighty-Two T0 DIAKE GOOD CITIZENS baseball, basketball, football, and track teams. Health. we know, plays a great part in the life of a man. Of what use to his country or to anybody, in fact, is a delicate, sickly citizen? The social advantages of a school are many and var- ied. School activites, a step below national activities. play a great pa1't in the life of a pupil. Constant asso- ciation with his fellow comrades promotes a spirit of democracy, a vital factor in our republican form of gov- ernment. America needs men wh.o are not socially de- ficient. Our country is a democracy, and the place where democracy begins is in the American school- house. Men with intellect, men of inventive genius, men of power are of the utmost importance to a nation. In the school it is that men learn how to develop their brains. History, Civil Government, English, Mathematics, or, in fact, any subject, help to give a man knowledge. And it is men with brains who are the true citizens of a nation. At first glance it would seem that the schools did not educate a student politically, Several years ago that situation might have existed, but today there is in the American school a system called student government. whereby a pupil not only may learn political methods, but also may acquire a true sense of justice and fair- ness. Our schools, then, are the centers of democracy. They are educating students in ways conducive to good citizenship. Hence there is truth in the saying that good schools mean good citizens. Page Eighty-Three AGLAIA AN INTERESTING BOOK I HAVE FOYND One of the most interesting and most extraordinary books I have read was given to me by my grandfather. It is an ancient volume, which was written in Latin. It is remarkable just to look at it, for it is large and beau- tiful. Its covers are made of wood, over which is stretched decorated leather. The design seems to be burned into the leather, but this cannot be, for it would be impossible to make the lovely, quaint little tigures so symmetrically arranged with a hot iron. Simplicity and dignity are the most noticeable aspects of this folio. On the binding are Written only the names of the ar- ticles which are to be found within the covers and the dates on which the articles were written. Everything is written in Latin! We open the book. The covers seem to protest at being again openedg the yellowed pages resist being' turned, The first page is fantastically covered with hideous wood engravings, but there is a charm about it that holds us. We turn another page and t'Index Operis stares at us. We reach the tirst page of the text. The iirst letter of the first wo-rd is surrounded by another of those peculiar wood engravings, and thc whole iirst word, which takes up the entire line, is printed in capital letters. Let us read the story, we say. How foolish is this thought! We begin to find that although we have struggled through four years of Latin, we cannot read the first word! The second word, however, is familiar and we decide to look farther. How queer everything is! There are no j's nor w's. Many of the words that seem familiar are written with a let- ter missing and with a strange mark in its stead. Someone suggests that ,maybe we have a book written when the Latin language was corrupted and that per- haps the accent marks and other 'queer symbols are from the French. VVe feel sure that T means et and that qz means que, but what of the other things? We give up hope of reading, and we turn the pages. Look! Someone has read this volume! See that note in the margin, written in Latin with faded black ink! Ma1us Herroditusn or Urbs clara fuit. This makes us stop thinking of the things we see and hear. and we seem to see an old monk in black robes, seated at his table in an ancient monastery, He is reading our book by the feeble light that' manages to be in the dreary room. The monk is dressed in black robes and has a long chain around his neck, upon which there a large silver cross. His hair is clipped short and, at the top of his head, is shaved off. His black skull cap is on the table. He has a stylus in his hand and with it makes notes in the margin as he reads his book. Everything is somber and solemn. Can it be that this is the book that he was reading? We are sure of it. At the beginning of every chapter there are wood en- gravings of the same ugliness but on different subjects. We have come'to the middle of the folio. There is an- other title page with Cleopatra's picture on it. Poor Cleopatra! Beyond this much of the printing is in Greek-a Greek that none of our teachers can read. L 5 AGLAIA Page Eighty-Four When we have seen the whole volume, what a new and altogether strange feeling we have! We seem much older and much wiser, although we know no more than we had before. A spell has been cast over us, The realities seem unreal, and we seem to live in an al- together different world. This book of 1528, with its stiff pages yellowed with age, shows us a new aspect of life. IN VYHIUH l FIND REASONS T0 RETURN HOME IMMEDIATELY Flor ten long years I had been driven hither and thither, over vast territories of water: and always seek- ing my homeland Ithaca. At length, I found myself shipwrecked on the shores of Phoeacia. I there related my wanderings to the king, Alcionous, and he fitted out some ships for me, sending me on n1y way with many rich gifts. Fon- some unknown reason, I was left on the mainland of a country which I could not recognize for the mist that surrounded me. As I was about to give up all hope of finding into what land I had been cast, I saw in the distance a stranger, whom I addressed in the following manner: I have been left on this land by some who gave no reason for their behavior. Will you explain in what country I am, and if you saw any of the men who accompanied me? And he finally made clear that I was in my own land, and that he would help me if need be. Let me explain heme that I found out that he was none other than Patlas Athem. Next she told me of my wife, and said that she long had been troubled with many suitors, who had become over-bold in my ab- sence. So she directed m-e to return immediately, say- ing that she wou-ld accompany me, I was then changed to an old and wretched beggar that no one would recog- nize me. As she disappeared from my sight, I took my way across the hills, headed toward home. FRI ENDS Scientists have proved to us over and over again that man is a social being. He not only depends in a large degree for his enjoyment in life, but also for his daily growth, on others. He cannot be, as Kipling so clev- erly puts it, a cat that walks by himself. There is no such title, properly given, as a self made man. The surroundings make a man, though he may be the me- dium which determines how the surroundings affect him. This power of deterrmining, however, plays a far larger part in our destinies than we can illlagille. I think that, although we are far too modest to admit it, our fundamental aim in life is to be successful. If man is primarily a social being, then his success is going to be, in a large part, his contact with his fellow beings. But how are we going to regulate our associations? To be sure, we have no control over the family we were born into, we were either blessed or not blessed with certain relations, and nothing but the eternal judgment can ever untie those first bonds which connect us so closely. But beyond that there is something we can determine and that is, who and what type our friends shall be. Personally, I have always admired and secretly en- vied a person who can choose the right kind of a friendg Page Eighty-14'ive AGLAIA a person who can move to new surroundings and settle down with desirable friends. But invariably I have made this observation that this move is rather slow in its action, and have drawn the conclusion that this fortunate person observes and then chooses. Therefore. the first fundamental in having good friends is to act slowly, weighing and then choosing, However, there is another type of person I think I admire more than the first typefthe person who is ablc to keep good friends. How often we hear the expres- sion, She Wears well. The longer' her friends know her, the better they like her ! VVhat a delightful type this is! What a personality, what an agreeable and pleasing companion, this person who can keep her friends! Yet I think it is almost too selfish to merely lmvv the best of friends. How about being a friend yourself? You live a personality which, if properly developed and geiierously imparted, may mean success to someone less fortunate than yourself. Only be careful that in so do- ing you give only the best of your personality. As Foss expresses it, Let me live in a house by the side of the road and be a friend to man. YYHY I LIKE SHORT STURIIGQS Short stories have interested me most. The first rea- son for my preference is a practical but very real one. I have not a great deal of time to read and am likely to snatch opportunities on the electric cars or at any odd moments, Therefore I like something that can be react through quickly and at the same time contains a com- plete plot. Then the short story has a unity with which no other form of literature can compare. Being brief. it necessarily leaves a complete, unified impression on the mind. Poe's stories particularly create an impres- sion, In The Fall of the House of Usher Poe in- tends us to have a depressed, gloomy feeling after we have read the story, and he certainly succeeds in his object. In a word, it is sometimes difficult to pick up the thread of the story when one reads it in sections. For instance, in UA Tale of Two Cities one is rather in- clined to confuse the times and relations of the different. events, which are so closely woven together and so intri- cate, unless one reads the book through as a whole, which would be most unlikely. Sometimes there is a piquancy about short stories that is not found in other forms of literature so often and which lends a distinct charm. One of 0, Henry's stories, The Nine Cent Girls, and Ftank Stockton's The Lady or the Tiger, illustrate this. Mark Twain's tale of The Jumping Frog also demonstrates this point. Finally, one could read tive or six short stories of diverse subjects and varied solrts in the same time that he could read one play or novel. His fund of informa- tion and his intellect would thus be broadened through different channels and he would not tire of the reading, but would obtain a great deal of pleasure from it. So, for convenience, for charm, and fora' variety, I en- joy short stories more than any other form of literature. AGLAIA. Page Eighty-Six EARLY DAYS IN THE The town in which I grew up, Annapolis, Maryland, is, I think. one of the most interesting places of its kind on the Atlantic seaboard. The town was settled in the days of Queen Anne and was named after her, the suilfix -polis-coming from the Greek, meaning the city of. The tirst people who made a settlement on the banks of the Severn were Protestants who had been exiled from Virginia. Maryland was really a Catholic State and un- der the proprietorship of Lord Baltimore, but he had no objections to the Protestant colony as long as it recog- nized him as governor. The Virginians refused to do this, and several battles were fought, the most import- ant of these on Kent Island. The Annapolitans won out and were independent for a long time, not joining the Maryland colony until later. Since the Virginians had gained the land they wanted, they began at once to lay out a city. The plan was something similar to the one used in layin-g out Wash- ington. However, instead of having all the streets radi- ate from one circle, as they do from the capitol, the An- napolitans were original and had two circles from which the streets branched out, one circle including the State House and the other St. Anne's Church. The names of the streets are very picturesque, as Prince George, for example, and King George and the Duke of Gloucester Streets. Fleet Stneet is found down near the wharves and Carroll Alley is the narrowest way in town. Some very beautiful houses were erected of brick, with doors and windows of white woodwork. There were always HISTORY OF DIY TOXVN beautiful gardens in the rear of the houses and many overlooked the Severn River and the Chesapeake Bay. The streets were made of cobblestones and some of these are still kept. In Colonial days Annapolis was the center of gaiety. Many cavaliers flocked there who had been exiled from England and these were welcomed into the rich and aristocratic old families. Horse races were held at the place where one of the stations now stands and it is said that George Washington used to go there to try his luck. One of the earliest theatres was erected in Annapolis and here plays were welcomed rather than banned. Finally the days of the Revolution came, Annapolis prides itself in the story of the Peggy Stewart Tea Party. Mr. Stewart was an Englishman whose ship, The Peggy Stewart, named after his daughter, was at anchor, loaded with tea, in the Severn. The Anna- politans were furious at the tax on tea and refused to buy any, and even forced Mr. Stewart to burn his own ship. Several of the Maryland signers of the Declara- tion of Independence were Annapolis men, their names being William Paca, Samuel Chase, and Charles Carroll of Carrollton. After the Revolution George Washington resigned his commission as Commander-in-Chi'ef of the Continental Army in the old State House, and the spot today is very well marked. The temporary capitol of the United States for a while was situated at Annapolis, and the little house is still shown which was used as the Page liiprlity-Sc-x's-ll AGLAIA headquarters of the Department of the 'llreasui 'y. Be- fore I stop writing about Annapolis I must mention St. J0hn's College. This is a very, very old college, whose best known graduate is Francis Scott Key, the author ol' our national anthem. On the campus, too, is an old tulip-poplar tree, at least six hundred years old, under which both Lafayette and Washington have stood. One of the most treasured possessions of the city now is the material for this is all homespun. These are some of the historical facts about the town in which I grew up, There are many more. The draw- back to places like Annapolis is that tl1ey have a glori- ous past but no future. The only thing that keeps llly home town alive is the Naval Academy located there.
