We, the Senior A's of May '25, high-school days are ended; that they will remain only realize that our a pleasant memory in years to come. We recall the time we came to Central, our dear lady on the hill. We recall our days spent here minutely and regret the times wasted. We remember with tears in our eyes the wonderful times had here. As freshies we looked up to the seniors, looking forward to the time when we would be in their places. Here many pleasant days were spent. Here with new instructors and new classmates, time flew At last we attained the sophomore year. altogether too quickly. Before we realized it we were Juniors and finally Seniors. Oh, our Senior year is one that will stand out as All goings-on in school were And the Proms! Those one of work and play. aided and abetted by us. were the days! But Senior A's, these are but pleasant reminiscenes. The friendly arms and friends who so gladly shel- tered, advised, and aided us in our high school career —everything ‘included in these worthy portals is clos- ing upon us. Others are being welcomed. The friendly advice given to us by our instructors and dear principal shall never be forgotten. They shall, in future years, aid us also. So, graduates, the time has come when we must say Farewell, and turn with brave heart and un- erring step to the fate in store for us. —R. C. OUR ORGAN FUND Hundreds and hun- and So also must we wait, hope, and work for Rome was not built in a day. dreds of days were spent in waiting and hoping working. our organ. More than ten years ago our predecessors awoke to the fact that Central needed an organ. To Since then think is to act! А fund was started. we have been waiting and hoping—but, have we been working as hard as we might? Organs do not drop as the gentle rain from heaven upon the place beneath. Former Centralites, realiz- ing that, have worked hard and enthusiastically. But a group of students can not do it all, and unless every one contributes his share, however, large or small, our dresm of an organ will not materialize for a long, long time. It would really be tragic if we have to wait much longer. “АП things come to him who waits. — Yes, but things will come more quickly if he goes after them. Ah! what a grand day it will be for us when, the organ installed, we all come back to listen to the strains of our Alma Mater!” How triumphant and exultant we shall be, for did we not work hard, and by our striving help to get the organ? How impres- sive and solemn the occasion when the beautiful peals from the organ echo through the auditorium! Centralites, we ask you as our successors to con- tinue the work started so long ago and so hopefully carried on, and we fondly hope soon to meet you again and mingle our voices with yours to the strains of our organ. --М.

FROM «295 PRINCIPAL May 14, 1925. т ) Dear Parents: This is the time of the year that Nature unobtrusively and quietly is making every effort to do here duty for the world. Now all feel the throb of Nature's renewed vigor. Follow her example as she starts the trees, shrubs, flowers and animal crea- tions unfolding. Man, the head of all, must not fail to attain the heights that the new life surging within us, prompts. Do not have your children go about their duties listlessly. Let them listen to the hum within them, and utilize the energy that is throbing there. They must feel the urge to do. Direct your children wisely. I[mbue them with a vision of big things. Show them that the goal is worth while. Every thought should be directed towards this goal. Let springtime be the period for the putting forth of new effort to insure the subsequent blossoming and fruition of splendid young manhood and womanhood into efficient citizenship.

A ROMANCE OF THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY By Elizabeth Surles Kensington Gardens, in England, was a typical Every evening at twilight, couples could The ат always hung heavy with the perfume of the beauti- lovers’ lane. be seen walking along the flower lined paths. ful flowers. Oftimes lovers have wandered down the paths telling that old, old story. One evening, Natalie Hutchison was walking down the much treaded path with her lover, Walter Rah- [hey stopped under a rose-covered arch, and Out of the holy stillness voices could be heard which brought the lovers back to earth, leigh. stood there in silence. Natalie from her dreaming, and Walter from his air castles. Yes, it is true, said the one voice. But surely the queen must have a motive? in- terrupted the other. Certainly, it seems that one of the ladies of the court has fallen in love with a common man. The Queen heard they met here every evening, so tonight she is coming to see how true the story is.” Natalie's face turned pale. She turned quickly, saying as she did so: Walter, you must leave me to go back alone. This is your chance—throw your- self at my Lady's feet, and ask her for an interview. She can't refuse you. She ped as she heard the guards marching forward. and she stop- Quick! said Rahleigh, ‘There is no time to run. You must hide—do not move.” With these precautions Rahleigh moved out of the bower. He had no more than reached the path when In the middle of the path was a puddle and before this the Queen the Queen with her guards came along. Rahleigh stepped forward and taking his He then offered his hand, saying, Allow me, my most stopped. cloak from his back, laid it across the puddle. gracious Queen. Queen Elizabeth walked over the cloak then tumed and said to Rahleigh: man. “Well done, young Come to see me to-morrow at the throne room, and I shall see that you have a new cloak.” With this the Queen walked on. of the hiding place and grasped Rahleigh's hand. “Well, Lady Hutchinson, I shall be lucky after all.” Oh, Walter, laughed Natalie, you can never Natalie came out said Rahleigh, maybe be serious. The Queen was really impressed by your act. Walter laughed as he held up the cloak, saying, Oh, Natalie, it will cost me a pretty sum if the Queen does not get me a new cloak. The Queen had been quite angry when she was told that Lady Hutchison was meeting her lover in Kensington Gardens and consequently she was going The only way in which she could do this was to send Lady Hutchison to a convent for a year. She called the Lady’s father, the Duke of Chartesia, to her side and laid her plan before him. The Duke, who cared not for his daughter’s welfare, quickly fell to stop it. in with the Queen’s plan. The next afternoon Rahleigh made ready to see the Queen. him from Natalie in which she told him she was be- ing sent to a convent for a year, but that he must While he was dressing, a letter came to make no effort to see her or stop her, as that would only make matters worse. Rahleigh was ushered into the Queen’s rooms as the London Tower clock struck three. The Queen soon made her appearance and after attending to some matters of state, she called Rahleigh to her side. What is your name and rank, young man? she questioned. Rahleigh lifted his eyes to those of the Queen and said: My name is Walter Rahleigh. I am a descendent of James Rahleigh, once Duke of Kent. The Queen thought for awhile in silence and then with a wave of her hand she dismissed the courtiers and nobles until she was alone with Rahleigh. The Queen told Rahleigh that she liked him and added, “Зо I’m going to finance an expedition for you to Virginia. Rahleigh fell at the Queen's feet in thankfulness. In two months the expedition was ready and Rah- leigh expected to be started in a short time. During the time of preparation Rahleigh had seen a good deal of the Queen. At last he was on his way to the New World to plant a colony in England's name. There were many hardships going over and the men However Virginia was reached in due time. It was decided that he should go back to England for more supplies. Rah- leigh had no more than pulled out to sea when the Indians wiped out the whole colony. He was back in England for nearly two months before he heard this news. came near revolting many times. The Queen, who was secretly in love with Rah- leigh, prepared another expedition and also a surprise for Rahleigh. She sent for him in a few days and had a lengthy conversation with him. ‘“‘Walter,”’ said the Queen. I think a great deal of you, and I have utmost confidence in you. Therefore I’m sending 48 you on another expedition. Before you go, however, I want you to start out with England's blessing. You are to be knighted here tomorrow at sunrise. Before Rahleigh could utter a word she had left the room. The next morning Walter Rahleigh was knighted by the Queen's own hand. After the cere- mony Queen Elizabeth sent for him, and he obedi- ently went. When he entered the Queen's apartment she looked so beautifully young with her auburn hair falling down over her shoulders, that Rahleigh could restrain him- self no longer, and, taking the beautiful Queen in his arms, kissed her. He was at once repentant and Not so the Queen.

In a fortnight Rahleigh had started on his journey. With him he took an old pal and while on the trip they had many long talks. In one of them Rahleigh told Ted Garard, his friend, of the Queen and also of Natalie. “I am heartily ashamed of myself, con- fessed Rahleigh, but what is to be done—it was in a moment of wild infatuation. I am really in love with Natalie, more so than ever now.” Don't arouse Queen Elizabeth, said Ted. is a very jealous woman.” “Oh, but she is broadminded and will understand,” argued Rahleigh. “АП right, was Ted's only comment. “5� е Rahleigh again failed in his attempt to colonize Virginia, and came back home.

They had been sitting in the twilight when, coming out of the earth, so it seemed, the Queen stood before them.

The reason for this heated debate which I have recorded above was the Prom. The all-important which so much depended; that is for Bob. The cause for Leo’s ridicule was that Bob intended to ask Doris Channing, one of the popular girls in the school to the Prom. This may seem to you no cause for excitement, but it did to Leo and certain others con- cerned. Prom on Bob was not prominent in any of the school affairs; above all was not a good dancer, and, con- sequently, was considered something of a bore in the mind of the feminine element. The news spread like wildfire throughout the school. Bob to take Doris to the Prom! What foolishness!!! То add another tinge of spice to the bet, Dana Wynn, captain of the '24 Football Team, said he was also asking Doris to go with him. What was to be the outcome? The students could hardly wait until the “Prom” came off. But what about Doris, that petite miss of eighteen? When she heard of the affair her eyes narrowed re- sentfully. boys? Was her reputation as nought to the two Had she no face in the matter? Didn't she have feelings as well as anyone else?

The Friday before the “Prom” Doris received two invitations; in perplexity she went to see her friend, May Harris. Between the two this idea was con- cocted. Doris was to answer the two letters in the affirmative; both would come naturally, to take her to the Prom ; Doris would leave the two glaring at each othe by some pretext and in fifteen minutes would send in Polly, the maid, with a statement to the effect that Miss Creighton had been called away and could not come to the Prom at all.

The End.

Lim- berg-cheese knowing that Bluf-er would not divorce his wife if asked to do so, determined to kill his rival. Seeing Bluf-er praying under а grape-vine (for in those days grapes were prayed under and not eaten) Lim-berg-cheese picked up a heavy rock and climbing a tree, (for safety) hurled it at his enemy, whose head he knew to be under a certain large bunch of grapes. Straight and true flew the rock, smashing the grapes, which caused the juice to trickle down Bluf’er’s head, but sensing only the delicious flavor that trickled into his mouth, Bluf-er stood amazed. r Lim-berg-er thinking he had killed his enemy had meanwhile begun to descend from his perch, when Bluf-er approached him. Lim-berg-cheese trembled with fright, thinking he was to be killed. To his surprise Bluf-er knelt at his feet and said: “О noble Lim-berg-cheese, I will give you my wife, and be your slave forever if you will only hit me with more rocks while I stand under yon grape-vines.”” Very much surprised, Lim-berg-cheese consented, and began throwing stones at his voluntary slave. Meanwhile a crowd had gathered, and seeing with what joy Bluf-er allowed the stones to rain down on his head, they imitated his peculiar performance. Soon all the people were throwing rocks at each other and so wine was discovered. Lim-berg-cheese of course was the hero of the day, and received many honors and degrees from all colleges. The manuscript says that no improvement in the manufacture of wine was made until the great inven- tor Bit-o-wine discovered that grapes could be crushed without hurling rocks. The juice extracted by crush- ing grapes was called wine in honor of Bit-o-wine. Very oddly scientists are now proving that the above story is absolutely true by the fact that all na- tives of Africa have very strong heads. They say that the unusual strength of the African cranium is due to the first discovered method of crushing grapes between the head and a rock. Thus gentle reader, was wine discovered — ' vinum quod laudatur in fabulaque cantu’’—the fluid that is nectar to man—and the liquid that will flow for- ever (in spite of prohibition).

LOUIS AUERBACHER, CENTRAL 716, YOUNGEST MEMBER OF BIG SEWER COMMISSION Louis Auerbacher, Jr., valedictorian of the Central Class of June 1916, was appointed by Governor Sil- zer to the Passaic Valley Sewerage Commission on September 17, 1924, as a Republican member of the commission. The Passaic Valley Sewerage Com- mission is a state board formed under the statutes of 1902 and 1907, the purpose of which was to build an intercepting sewer from below the Great Falls in Paterson to the Newark Bay. The commission con- sists of five members, all appointed by the Governor for terms of five years each at a salary of $2500 a The present members of the board are: Ber- nard W. Terlinde, Chairman, of Newark, James d McAteer of Kearny, George H. Burke of Paterson, Cook Conkling of East Rutherford and Louis Auer- bacher, Jr. of Newark. year. The commissions are selected with a view to having the various sections of the district represented. The district comprises the following municipalities: Newark, Nutley, Belleville, Bloomfield, Glen Ridge, Montclair, Clifton, Passaic, Paterson, Gar- field, East Rutherford, Lynhurst, North Arlington, Kearny, Harrison, East Newark, Wallington, East Orange, Rutherford, Prospect Park, Haledon and Orange, all of which participate in the sewer except Orange which is expected to join shortly; and the trunk sewer built by the commissioners takes care of all the sewerage of these municipalities. Mr. Auerbacher, who resides at 281 Mt. Pros- pect Avenue, Newark, is a lawyer with offices in the 54 Kinney Building. Mr. Auerbacher was graduated from Central High School in Newark, June 1916, and was the valedictorian of his class. He was also editor of the PIVOT, the school paper and promi- nently identifed with various school activities. He then attended New Jersey Law School and was graduated with the degree of L.L.B. During the war he was in service for a short time. After gradu- ating from law school, Mr. Auerbacher took up the active practice of law in Newark and subsequently He has been identified with the civic life of Newark, being a member of the Chamber of Commerce of Newark and recently ap- pointed to the County Affairs Committee of that body. In addition he is a member of St. John’s Lodge F. A. M., and a trustee of the Central Avenue Pres- byterian Church. Mr. Auerbacher has devoted a great deal of his time to the activities of the Steuben Society of America and is now the chairman of the New Jersey State Council of that organization. In- asmuch as there is a local unit of the Steuben Society in almost every municipality of any size in New Jer- became a counsellor-at-law. sey and also county councils, his work as state chair- man is of considerable importance. Mr. Auerbacher is a member of the Delta Theta Phi Law Fraternity, which is the largest of the na- tional law fraternities, and upon his graduation from law school was awarded a scholarship key by the fraternity.

Then came the necessity for more letter- writing to handle the business that was opening up and the “‘cor- respondence clerk became a part of the personnel of the office force. He would probably be the most numerous of office assistants today had it not been for the invention of the typewriter which happened in 1873. Up to that time the word 'amanuensis had been used to mean “о� е who takes dictation in short- hand and transcribes that dictation on a typewriter.” It is not the province of this paper to follow the hist- ory of the machine for we had its rapid progress drawn most forcibly to our attention in the celebration of its fiftieth birthday. When we stop to consider the remarkable records for speed that are made every year we are apt to think that the machine in its most up-to-date form has reached the acme of perfection, but when we likewise 57 note that these records are yearly surpassed by some aspirant, who shall say that the next fifty years will not that The machine has come to see an improvement far outreaching anything imagination can picture. be inextricably woven in the fabric of business life, and were it possible to exterminate it entirely in a single day, on that day the wheels of commerce would be stopped as effectually as if they were overthrown by some convulsion of nature. If tomorrow not a single key were struck on any typewriter, then to- morrow would be counted as a dead day in the world of business and business itself would be dead for that day. Rose L. Fritz—in 1906— won the first Interna- tional typewriting contest with a record of 82 words a minute. The conditions of the contest were not so difficult as they are now, five words only being de- ducted from the total for errors. Miss Fritz was looked upon at that time as a young woman of ex- traordinary talent and ability. Since then rapid ad- vancement has been made. Today the number of stenographers who average Miss Fritz’s record of 82 for long periods of time on regular work in an office can be counted by the hundreds. But wonderful and splendid as these results were they could never have been accomplished without the aid of shorthand. Necessity has the mother of invention and the changes that have taken place in this field have been many and rapid. It is a far cry from the days of Nebuchadnezzar to this In his time people could well afford to record the happenings of the day at their leisure, but in these strenuous times we must have ever been modern age of secretaries. something rapid in the way of record-making de- vices. We have the means in shorthand and typewrit- ing but the transition has not been a sudden one; it represents the ever changing requirements of the ages. We have seen how the Egyptians recorded their thoughts by means of pictures; that later they im- proved their method by using signs that resembled the pictures. You could not trace in these any resem- blance to our present letters, but in Greek letters that follow some resemblance to the modern letters is ob- servable. Then we have our own letters derived from the Roman modification of the Greek alphabet. Finally we have the simple characters of our own Isaac Pitman shorthand. Again, had we time we could trace the develop ment of speed in shorthand, we would find that some are able to write at 350 and a very large number write as much as 200. For the novice it is enough to write say 125 and this is not hard to reach. Speed is the cry of the age, especially during the past few years. [he beginning stenographer the advanced stu- dent in school is apt to think that speed is the only consideration, and they are likely to feel satisfied when they have looked after that requirement. It is true that it does not make the sum total of the stenog- rapher’s knowledge, but the business man has соте to take the matter of speed for granted. He knows that whatever the necessity of business may be, men will spring up to invent a new machine or perfect to an even greater degree the ones we already have there seems to b no limt to the power of man to find a means to speed up the work of business when the pres- sure is brought to bear. And he knows likewise that as need arises schools stand ready to produce people trained to operate such machines. For the day has passed when the business man is either willing or com- pelled to turn his office into a training school for op- erators. Young people do not seem to be fully awake yet to the fact that business men no longer emphasize tech- nical knowledge—what they do look for and insist upon having is the presence in the applicant of certain qualities which they have found to be absolutely neces- sary to progress in any enterprise. In other words, they are looking for thinking stenographers, persons who have learned to forget self, persons who have at heart the greater progress of the whole. I believe the day is not far distant when the line will be more sharp- ly drawn than now between the two—the stenographer and what will then be termed secretary. Girls who are satished merely with technical training will fill the mediocre and poorly paid positions, while the other places will be taken by young people who have been clever enough to cultivate their intellects to a higher degree than is done at present. make a donkey laugh.

She was a friend to all, and enemy to none. We have lost much in losing her, and no one can ever take her place. Time alone can heal our sorrow and help to fill the vacancy. Sally has taken part in the school activities. The success of the play “Bashful Mr. Bobbs” was, in part, due to her dramatic efforts. Our loss is doubly great, for not only have we lost a faithful friend and student, but also a hard worker in our dramatic activities. We had expected much from Sally. To the parents and relatives of our beloved schoolmate we extend our deepest and most sincere sympathy. We condole with you in our bereavement, for it is also our bereavement.

In this way I shall get my revenge on the readers of | have to say that the this article by flinging what say at them. In the first Archon Club seems to me one of the finest things that has ever place I want to come to Central because it makes an open stand for what is most enduring and worth while in school- high scholarship. The purpose of the Archons reads, “То stimu late keener interest in class achievements, and to raise the standards of scholarship in school. Being 1 Archon doesn't mean just joining another club. It means that the student is realizing and meeting the responsibility of school life; that an Archon is up in Archon has the rest of the students in scholarship and in turn tries his studies; that an raised himself above to encourage others to the same height. It means, too, that the school and public are proud of an Arch- on. Besides being an Archon means a decided ad- vantage at graduation. If one wishes to go to college, it means that he will have no trouble with credentials or entrance examinations. If he wishes to go to work, it is no less an advantage. Certainly the best positions are going to those who have done the best work school. No business man wants to hire a boy or girl who is about as good as the average or who has failed in a quarter of his subjects and taken an extra year or two to complete his course. No one want fail- ures. Everywhere the demand is for the good worker, the one who succeeds, the one who surpasses his fel- lows, the one who does not fail. And that is just the kind of person an Archon is—one who never fails. It is this requirement of the Archon Club that as students shall never fail a major subject that we wish to emphasize especially to the entering class. that he Archon by some Perhaps he did Perhaps no such Many a sophomore or junior bitterly regrets has forfeited his chance to be an needless failure in his freshman year. not realize the importance of passing. goal as the Archon Club was set before him to en- courage him to effort. Perhaps he shared the idea, too prevalent especially in the lower classes, that any- one who spends in study time that might, according to his way of thinking be wasted more pleasantly, is a fool.

Tuesday, “Civics Day was celebrated by Mass meetings on Wednesday, Choral singing on Thursday, a fine literary program Friday, and our athletic meet Saturday rounded out a busy week for the girls.

Sunshine is a fine thing, but it’s moonshine that makes the world go round these days, THE BARRINGER GAME The revised edition of the Comedy of Errors, pub- lished by the Central High Baseball team was pre- sented to the spectators at Sprague Field, Bloomfield, Thursday, April 17, 1925. Т� е play sented in nine scenes and the main characters were the The best roles portrayed by each were James Dilly for the Central High team and Dave Harris for Barringer. ‘The Central High team made a hit when they depicted the scoring of two runs in the first inning but they also was pre- Central and Barringer baseball teams. came in for groans when in the Barringer’s half of the scene they contributed the total sum of four errors to the box score and incidentally three runs on Bar- ringer's side of the column. ‘The play continued with various emotional settings namely in the last scene with Central behind six to five, two men on base, Bot- nick who portrays a difficult role, that of third base- man, had a chance to bring the play to a successful conclusion, past the outfielder's head, who brought the play to climax by enfolding the flying sphere in his warm embrace for the final out of the game. There is a varied opinion among the critics upon the success of this play. The critics of Barringer аге wild over it but the Centralites say not so good. DILLY BLANKS SOUTH SIDE Our lanky twirler, Mr. James Dilly, continued his remarkable hurling by allowing the South Siders a In the four contests Dilly has pitched for our nine, he has been mighty stingy meagre three hits. handing out thirteen runs. The pitching duel ех- pected between Dilly and Schembs, the South Side 65 star did not materialize as Schembs reported with an injured right wing. Alta Cohen, who substituted for Schembs, pitched a fine game, allowing the Central sluggers but eight hits. The final score was 3 to 0. This makes the second City League game we won and the third consecutive victory. BASEBALL TEAM WITHOUT HOME GROUNDS The Central baseball team will play all their sched- uled home games at their opponents’ grounds. ‘The reason for this change is that the City Field, Central’s home field in the past is being renovated into a mod- ern stadium, and the construction work would make it impossible for games to be played there. The Stadium will be ready in the fall for the football sea- son. It will have concrete stands after the fashion of the East Orange Stadium. a running track, tennis courts and a field available for both football and baseball. In the inclosure will be CENTRAL VANQUISHES BATTIN Central’s hopefuls, otherwise known as our base- ball team, continued on their road of success by de- feating the Battin High representatives. The score was 5 to 2. Fritz Greenberg, our youthful hurler, showed great promise for the future by mowing down the opposing batters in masterly style. Nine Battin men whipped the breeze. The Central team still have their remarkable batting eyes with them as shown by the box score, wicking the opposition for eleven hits. The final score: Central, 5; Battin, 2. CENTRAL STARTS OFF WELL The Central High balltossers opened their baseball season with a 3 to 2 victory over the Plainfield High aggressors. [he game was well played and was very closely contested. The honors of the game unani- mously went to our lanky flinger, Jimmy Dilly, who allowed but. three hits and made mme Plainfielders whip the breeze. Other features of the game were the hitting of Martoccio and Weinstein. The team is much’ better than last year’s combina- tion. It is composed of all veterans with the addition of Greenberg, Pitcher, Weinstein, and Eagle, infield- ers, all of who have had previous experience with Our hopes seem bright for the city With three dependable hurlers and also all veteran team, we have high expectations. amateur teams. title, which we lost last year to Barringer. BASEBALL Doc Sargent took his Central High School base- ball candidates out for their first out-door workout at Harrison Field. The Blue and White tossers were clad in brand new uniforms and engaged in a real honest-to-goodness workout under their newly elected captain and first baseman, William Manning. — о Those that appeared for the practice were: Dilly, Dargin, Maxwell, Colarusso,, Russi, Schnell, Masko- witz, Burgess, Weissman, Greenberg, Toplansky, Ттауізза� о, Eagles, Botnick, Nattrass and Manning. o Central has quite a few veterans left on its squad— Manning, Travissano, Nattrass, Botnick, Dill and Lundy—all veterans on this year's squad. Every one of these boys is an excellent fielder and a hard hitter. Botnick in particular is a very heavy hitter, and will be a great help to the team this season. TO GO DOWN IN HISTORY Т� е names of three more heroes will go down in the history of high school athletics at the termination of this month. Vinnie Young, Walter Jockers and James Faggin are graduating this term and Central will surely miss them. All three of these lads were 66 sure point getters. Vinnie Young entered Central in 1920 and immediately reported for track. In 1921 he managed the cross country team and it was in 192? before he ran on the varsity squad but held his place there for every successive year thereafter on both the indoor and outdoor squads. track squad in 1923. powerful footbal] man, playing on the -varsity і� 1922, 1923, 1924. Vinnie’s wonderful work a captain of our 1924 М. J. Н. 5. championship foot- ball team will never be forgotten. Vinnie captained the He also was a skil!ful and team Walter Jockers is the second lad, � о! о be for- gotten. He was a member of the Varsity track squad, 1922, 23, 24, '25 Jockers never entered a contest without bringing home both outdoor and indoor in the bacon.” James Faggin, the third hero, has accomplished much fame for Central during his sojourn here. He starred in the high jump, broad jump, and pole vault. Enough credit could not be given to these boys were this whole book dedicated played in the athletic world to the active part they of Central High School. TRACK PROSPECTS Г� е memory of a vivid, sensational indoor track season still lingers in the minds of fans who followed Ceneral’s doings during the season. The performance of Central High in the National Interscholastics was remarkable. TS же The coming outdoor season seems to be greatly in favor of Central. Charlie Schneider, Central's coach, says nothing, but points to the records of his men. EI Central has a track squad composed entirely of veterans. In Kirschmann, we have a man that will In Emmet Petrin, Coach Schneider has a good jumper, and a good sprinter. Т� е real star of Central's machine will be Lou Bataille. This lad has been showing spendid form for the quarter mile. He has the makings of a world-beater, and his great running as anchor man for Central's relay team will go down in history. Vinnie Young, too, should be a factor in the city classic. Summing up, the Blue and White looms up as the strongest team in the city, and also as having the strongest squad the school has ever had to represent it. score heavily.

Executive Offices 155 MARKET ST., NEWARK, N.J. | HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT OF THE MONEY-MAKING POWER OF COMPOUND INTEREST ? Think of it now. It is a wonderful thing—a thing that you can command, a willing, uncomplaining power that will work for you day and night and make your money grow. Without any effort on your part it will add more and more to your money. And the more it adds the faster it will work to earn still more for you. It operates l ike magic. Suppose, for instance, that you start an account in the Savings Department of this, the largest institution of its kind in the entire State. In one year $100 will earn $4.04; $1,000 will earn $40.40. The second year $1,000, and the first year’s interest, will earn $82.42, making the total $1,082.42, and the third year that amount will be credited with $43.72, making the balance $1,126.14. In five years your $1,000 and the interest will amount to $1,218.94. That is the magic and the won- der of compound interest. It makes it possible for you to make the money that you worked for work for you. The more money you deposit, the more inter- est you will get and the more that interest will earn. In this way and in time your money will be doubled and in even less time it will double again.

Study is but a sharpening of the wits. The more we study and the more varied the subjects, the greater is the background we culti- vate to better understand the doing of anything We may undertake. From athletes to chorus girls, it's the clever ones that are on top. You hear of the girl who dances like a fool, but hasn't a thought in her head. She may not be a mathematician or TEACHERS vs. Once upon a time, people thought that teachers should teach and that it was up to the pupils to get what was taught. Now current ideas on the subject are a bit different. Today we see a responsibility, not only on the part of the student, but also on the part of the teacher. Teachers are human. They are just as apt to neglect their duty as pupils are fonly that it usually happens less oftenl. It is the duty of the teacher to inspire the careless student with interest in his course. The inevitable question, why must I study this must be satisfied. What good are teachers for anyone else? to other people if, although they may have attained some advantage over the other mortals in a certain line, they can not make them- selves understood or create the slightest interest in their work? It cannot be said that the broadest in- telligence was displayed in such a case. A teacher does get disheartened with an unappreciative audi- enceg moreover he may have a human right to fly 5 a philosopher, but she is a student of dancing. If not, the chances are that there are other persons who do have various thoughts in their head and who do dance better. Those who know say that there is no better recipe for getting across a line in the so- cial world than a well trained brain. These are points that people usually do not connect with inten- sive studyingg but the connection is there. Besides, anyone can be ignorantg why not be different? -C. G. STUDENTS off the handleng still he shows that he is not master of the situation if he does. Few people feel inspired to learn the chantings of a maniac up and down the room, roaring his head off . . . the students shivering in their seats. Certainly an occasional out- burst of chastisement may even be said to be neces- sary, but to try to teach in a nerve-wrecking attitude turns out to be nothing but a flat failure. The suc- cessful teacher is the one showing complete control over the situation, certainly not with effort. The teacher's job is a trying one. Yet that is no excuse for the individual teacher not to try his best. Of course, it is up to the student to do his share too. But it is up to the teacher to start with his contribu- ion. I-le knows better than his untaught charges. Get people itnerested in your subject and see how much they'll work for youg and incidentally for themselves. -C. G. Dear Parents :- Too many of us are unconsciously changing the good old say- ing, Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today, and are living by the motto, Never do today what you can do tomorrowf' ln our handling of young people we must remember to give them the right ideals of living, and see to it that they form these ideals. The child who puts off distasteful, or difficult tasks today, will keep putting them off throughout his life. Tomorrow will find him trying to catch up with yesterday's work. There is so much to do in this world of ours that it is only by meeting each hour's task that we can keep up with the moving world. What is left undone today will crowd upon the new tasks to he done. This will cause slip-shod handling of new and old work. It is your duty and privilege to inculcate in the child a sane and safe method of living, meeting and conquering' obstacles as they present themselves. Courage never comes through waiting. Initiative is gained through doing. The procrastinator will find today's tasks plus yesterday's so difficult to handle that he will soon become discouraged and will fail to do either well, or will do neither set. The procrastinator is the thief of time. I-le is forever saying, Everything's going wrong. I don't know what to do first. Do not let your children become pro- crastinators. Very sincerely yours, Q o 1 Principal. CJ Gllann nf Augnzt 1925 Ahuinnr 3lumqah M, ZKDIUEIU Gbmne Ennmn, Nun Qllllalum -v Autngraphz 8 Auingraphn 9 PRESIDENT WILSON, I-IERMAN M.

J. 413 TRACK The past season was very successful for our track team. Entered in six meets we won one and placed in the other five. The White and Blue of Central's runners crossed the line first in so many meets that it is hard to count them all. These speed merchants have brought honor and glory to Central's halls. Cups and other trophies have been brought home to fill the cases to overflowing. Among the better known of our track team are Bataille, Tucker, Young, lockers and Kirshman. Our much talked of relay team of lockers, Young, Kirshman and Bataille, running in the order named, placed third the Penn-Relays for the Mile Champion- ship of America. ln the Columbia meet, Lou Bataille, the outstand- ing star of our team won the Metropolitan Cham- pionship for the quarter mile. Tucker, ,lockers and Kirshman placed in their respective events. ln the State meet we placed second for the best showing in four years. Considering that we had only three men entered, we did wonderful. Kirshman placed second in the high and broad jumps, Tucker was third in the l00 yards, and second in the 220 and Bataille as usual won the quarter-mile funcon- querable Bataillel. In the city meet we surpassed our rivals by far. Bataille won the quarter mile and broad jumpg Young was second in the half mileg Kirshman was second in the 220 and the high jumpg .lockers won the l20 yards high hurdles, and Entner won the shot-put. Records of our new material: Sam Rappaport-Junior pole vaulter, placed third in the South Side meet and tied for first in the city meet. Coach Schneider holds out high hopes for his future. lack Lepp--Diminutive broad jumper place in the broad jump in the South Side meet. Marshall-Placed second in the high fourth in the hurdles. Like Rappaport prospects are bright. Victor De Filippo-Was second in the high jump of the South Side meet, second in the half-mile city meet, and third in the high jump in the city meet. In South Side and City meets, Coach Schneider, as we have already stated, put in some of the afore- mentioned and they showed up brilliantly. When we look over the list of graduates and see Young, ,lockers and Bataille going from the ranks of the White and Blue, we get discouragedg but when we regard the new material, new hope shines for us. Good luck! took third jump and his future V-lT1'aCli 'TiE8.IT1. i BASEBALL Our baseball season was a very successful one, our team winning eight out of twelve scheduled games in a very masterful fashion. Among our victims who were sacrificed for our fametwere Barringer, South Side, ftwicel, East Side, ftwicel, Netcong, Battin and Plainfield. The teams that placed debits to our account were our old-time enemies St. Benedicts, Bloomfield, Nutley and Barringer. The stars of our aggregation were very numerous and included James Dilly, Esquire, star twirler, Frank Martoccio, our canny lead-off man and the elongated Eric Lundie. Other almost wonders of our baseball team were Bill Manning, our fielding star and Fritz Greenberg. Fritzie will be with us for the next two seasons to come. He showed by his good work in the Battin game that when Dilly leaves our portals we will still have a pitcher of worth. Our boys' playing was very erratic. They were good hitters but not so good on the fielding part of the game. The score columns would always show 44 a goodly percentage in the hit section, but there also were plenty of errors. Our boys could sock, but could not held. Some of the interesting games played were: The South Side game, Central was leading for the first eight innings when South Side suddenly awakened to the fact that the game was nearly over and com- menced to tie the score, but that was only temporary as Johnny Nattross, our erstwhile second baseman, calmly hit a homer and saved the game. The East Side game in which James Dilly allowed only four hits and the same number of runs. The game was very close with the East Side team con- tinuing their surprising showing of the season. Among the faces that shall not appear in the lineup for the next season are: Nattross, a rcent graduateg Frank Maroccio, James Dilly, Mill Manning and Le Roy Botnick. The rest including Lundie, Weill- stein, Greenberg, Eagles, Entner and McLaughlin will again sport the Central color. -.rXFe-21'- - - - - 2 - 7 32. ,ii gg!-ij fYKY'!l'I3XSiI?Li??l'lf'Qi?'llllllllmllfwu 0, I 1 N u 11,1 I N4 I fain III m1'?23?1 j A I M II I'IIIIIIlllIIll 'IM I 0+ M - , , ' , I+ I U1-Qi 55f'f'11If'IIf,1l'IIImI!.

Can it be that it comes from that tent up yonder on that hill? Well- seeing is believing, let's go up and investigate. Ap- parently the carnival was just opening for the voice of the proprietor, Whom we later found to be Mr. Rowan, our former faculty advisor, could be heard welcoming the advancing crowds. Evidently it was the greatest affair of the season for the people were all trying to get ahead of one another. Get off my foot! Who's on your foot? You are, you gray-bearded old fool. We turned around to see Abraham Bernstein try- ing to tell Harry Kaiser to walk instead of fall in. We saw that Harry had with him his wife, formerly Elsie Stupelman, who was trying to keep her eleven youngsters in line according to age. She always was systematic. Ahead of us could be seen Irene Feld- man, as we heard someone call her, pushing her way in through the open Hap of the canvas. ln this way we were able to walk in comfortably for she left a wide enough space in the crowd for both of us to make our way in. Oooooh look!!,' This exclamation came from one of a group, for in front of us was the most sylph- like dancer, toe-dancing on the back of a beautiful white horse. Mildred nudged me and whispered: Do you recognize her? I looked again and lo and behold! the graceful nymph was none other than Gertrude Greenberg. Time did not age her in the least. But that exclama- tion annoyed us for it sounded familiar. It came to us all of a sudden for the memory of Herman Wil- son's famous speeches that made us realize it was he. Herman was standing in the midst of a group repre- senting the home of the aged. The members turned out to be, Richard Carmody, Lawrence Alpern, Jo- seph Getman and David Braelowg not to exclude the ladies who were Mirmiam Dennis, Ruth Donaldson, Rose Gollin, Marie Schaeffer, Frances Wittner, Frances Windholtz and Sally Charnack. A46 We next went itno a gaudily decorated tent that had a sign above it which read: EST!-IER MATTURRI Genuine Imported Fortune Teller She was reading the palm of Hymen Mintz, whose hair made us remember him. Esther looked at him through her dark veil and told him that he would brighten other lives because of his brilliant hair. The others were waiting anxiously in line to be told their fortunes. It was amazing to Hnd that almost every other per- son in that line knew us. In turn they told us who they were. We were interested, of course, to find out what they had done with themselves since we last saw them. Sarah Croker, Mary Bland, and Nettie Zucker were all nurses in the Hospital for the Wel- fare of Crippled and Disabled Grasshoppersf' From them we learned that Irving Cohen was connected with their hospital and had made himself by specializing in operations of grasshopper's antennae and that Mar- guerite Randolph, Irving's very efficient secretary was always on hand to take down notes of the proceedings. And look here! Carl Tapper! We shook hands with him and he was so pleased that he invited us to attend his golden wedding anniversary to be held at the home of Dr. and Mrs. David Wiener. Our curiosity was aroused and we asked whom he had married. Why, little Stella, of courseg and Mrs. Wiener is Frances Reinitz of old! Why, we are the best of friends! astonishment is a simple word to describe our feelings then. Hello therell' called a voice to us. We looked and saw Mina Schwartsfeld and Al Seiglemang Rose Wetter and Alfred Frankie: Rose Wolk and Jack Lepp, and Gertrude Milkman-all still single, we discovered, waiting to be told whether they would ever be able to enjoyithe matrimonial life. Down the line were other familiar faces-all having a good time, laughing at Charlotte Jauss's jokes. We saw that they were Mary Rosamilia, Mollie Newmark, Sohpie Reins, Gussie Ratner, Mathilda Cverlack, and Bea- trice Carey. But we were not going to miss the side shows, not with the new hippopotamus on show. There he was puffing and flapping. Its attendant had to wear a rubber uniform to keep off the shower of water the Hip blew off every once in a whilej Herb, old man, that water's wet! called the clown. The clown, although painted, could not fool us for those ears were too familiar. It was Harold Kaplan, another of our classmates. But who in the world was I-lerbi' we wondered. Was he also of our famous group? l..et's see. Herb-Herb-Herbert- Herbert Beim! That's it. Will surprises never cease? What with Dora Minnefor who recognized us. She was on show as the fattest woman in the world. ln a contest she won this title because she had four chins, the others losing since they had only three. Among those in the contest were Minnie Zeid and Minnie Kaufer. Members of the U Wanna Die Home-Johanna Nieburg, Gussie Ratner and Sophie Rems became fiustered at the screaming of the son of Mr. and Mrs. Allan Patwich. The dear child shrieked at the sight of the giant Henry Spielvogel, who was tossing a midget, George Hodes, on his thumbnails. Then there were the guinea pigs who were made very happy because a great sum was donated to them by the members of the Gyp 'Em All Sorority, including Abraham Wohlreich, Gamaliel Zemel, Charles Wag- ler and Herman Toplansky. Each contributed his little bit. The total was six cents after an hour of computation. The next point of interest was the living skeleton, Sam Colarusso, whose name was posted above the platform with the statement that he was able to live on only one spaghetti and a teaspoonful of water a day. We felt sorry for him when we recalled how robust he was in his youth. We could hardly believe our eyes when we were introduced by Augusta Graw, who appeared on the scene, to Florence Hinkley and Alice Doolittle in costumes selling monkeys with instructions on how to teach them to beg for pennies. There was a little group about them watching with keen interest. Augusta-who was still artistically inclined, asked me please to leave the various amusements and booths and indulge in something more educational. By this she meant the art exhibits. We searched high and low for them until an attractive looking sign beauti- fully engraved by Franklin Cusick, Printing, in- vited us in. We were not surprised, however, to see who turned out to be the artists of the day, for we could see the traces of their vocation- when they were but youngsters. Kay Maurer had on exhibition her masterpiece, a wonderful oil painting of a set of salt shakers. We stopped at one painting which brought tears to our eyes for the sign above read: In Memory of Papyrus and Zevn-Louis Rosberger. The next partition was devoted to small inventions of the 20th century. Advice which enabled house- wives to peel onions without shedding tears was in- vented through the combined efforts of Mlles. Viola and Grace Smith. Another invention owned by Schienbloom and Nusbaum, incorporated, made walk- ing between the drops a possibility. We went closer to examine it and found that the drops were merely gum drops. This was invented by Aaron Kaminsky and Eli Scolnick. ' In the adjoining room could be heard the splash- ing of water. It was a scorching hot day and just the sound of water was enough to have us enter. It did make us cool-not the water-just the thrill, which sent a chill right down our spines. Deep sea divers were performing stunts. One of the divers, Michael Rosa. dived off the spring-board with Rose Liebling holding fast to his ankles. Both plunged into the water gracefully. The next diver, Emanuel De Gomar, dived off with Elizabeth Balint on his shoulders. Gladys Gray, who still retained her attractjveness, could be seen standing on the hips of a man whose identity we knew only to be B. H. The last stunt we witnessed was Antoiette Green- berg's. She was on the board with a bright red out- lit. trimmed with a gaudy sash of puple and carried a burning torch in her hand. She set herself aflame and jumped into a burning pool of water and oil. We never knew what happened after that! The aforementioned were all trained by the famous instructor Chrysantha.Gavalas, who had just about exhausted her patience with them, we are told. 47 The Siamese twins actually looked adorable. We were very pleased to meet them. They asked us who we were and we in turn asked them their names. We just stook there and gasped at their reply. Finally we found courage to exclaim: Joseph Scilla and Herb Cheskinln That's us,,' said Joseph. Us, finished Herbert. Just then a coach approached us. The driver in silk and velvet robes asked us if we would ride on the huge platform which was absolutely unknown to us. He, Max Gelfound, told us it was a scene rep- resenting the modern age. The trip around was exceedingly interesting. For we saw a flapper entirely different from that of the year '25. Bertha Weiss, formerly a flapper was en- tirely changed. She stood along side of her Collegiate Both were sedate looking. Fanny Abelowitz all in a gray outfit to match her hair was with Louis Bataille. It was very surprising to see that all the older folks take the lead in being Happers and col- legiates. They evidently had gone back to days when minuets and powdered hair and ruffles and the like were in bloom. Dorothy Wasserman and Jack Leon were tripping it on the light fantastic toe, to the minuet marvellously played by the Playanote Band with Elizabeth La Kamp the pianist, Sarah Lutsky the violinist and Rose Sangavani the shelloist. Fay For- land was the Harpist, while the flute was sweetly played by Anne Schwartz. One square represented the sports of that time. It was no longer golf or tennis but croquet and carriage riding. We witnessed an exciting game played by Etta Ginsberg and Sol Herships. The couples we saw in carriages were Max Pav- licsko and Katherine Norciag Morris Belford and Evelyn Finng Sol Graus and Marie Schaeffer, and Lillian Star and Jack Lerner. We saw Mary Rosamelia in a booth as a silhouette artist. Rose Shindell, Ida Strazza and Olive Mit- chell were assisting her. We were just going over to another booth when we heard a big noise and grand excitement. We looked around and saw the Siamese 'l wins running in opposite directions. We followed the crowd that were running after them but found difficulty in keeping sight of both. We had run about two miles when we suddenly heard a noise and look- ing about, saw nothing but space. Realizing that we were far from the carnival and that it would be too late to return, we jumped on our bicycles and peddled home. That was the end of a perfect day. OUR CLASS HERB BEIM has gone to heavenly heightsg V He tried to drive without his lights. JACK LERNER this busy life forsakesg He never would reline his brakes. Here's all thatis left of KAUFMANQ He tried to race over a span. No more for KAISER are earthly smilesg He took the curve at forty miles. JCE. SCILLA has gone to his abodeg He kept the middle of the road. MOTORISTS Here lies our friend poor Kaminskyg He tried to mix gasoline and whiskey. IRV. COI-lEN'S friends are all bereftg He made a short turn to the left. Al.. HEUN is free from earthly painsg A rainy day he had no chains. Poor Gll..l..'S beneath the sod, alas! He sped up and tried to pass. Now LEPP has joined the heavenly bandg He tried to drive it with one hand. -David Wiener. 48 , TY, Most Popular Girl- Sally Charnack Viola Smith Most Popular Boy- Irving Cohen Herman Wilson Best W0flCCl', Girl- Gertrude Goldberg Esther Matturri Best Worker, Boy- Harold Kaplan Irving Cohen Best Looking Girl Bertha Weiss Gladys Gray Best Loolging Boy- lrving Cohen Lou Bataille Best Dresser, Girl- Fay Foreland Stella Deutsch Best Dresser, Boy- Joseph Scilla Lou Bataille folliest Girl- Viola Smith Gertrude Goldberg folliest Boy- Henry Spielvogel David Wieller Athletic Girl- Viola Smith Gladys Gray Atl1letic'Boy Irving Cohen Lou Bataille Class Orator, Girl- Daisy Wilson Sally Charnack Class Orator, Boy- l-lerman Wilsoli Sam Colarusso All-Around Girl- Viola Smith Rose Wetter All-Arouncl Boy- Lou Bataille Irving Cohen Most Conceited Girl- Sally Charnack Elsie Stupelman Most Conceitecl Boy-- lrving Cohen Carl Tapper Noisiest Girl- Gertrude Goldberg Viola Smith Noisiest Boy- Herman Wilson Max Gelfound Laziest Girl- Beatrice Jacobs Beatrice Carey Laziest Boy- Carl Tapper Alfred Frankie Most Boyisli Girl-- Viola Smith Betty Balint Most Girlisli Boy- Carl Tapper David Wiener Most Obliging Girl- Etta Ginsberg Rose Wetter twost Obliging Boy- Jack Lerner A Leonard Nusbaum 49 Best Dancer, Girl Sally Charnack Dorothy Wasserman Best Dancer, Boy- Joseph Scilla Sam Colarusso Best Mixer, Girl Antoinette Greenberg Mathilda Overlack Best Mixer, Bop- .

Side by side in a garden bloomed K Two flowers, daintily perfumed A rambler rose and a sweet pea vine Upon a stone wall did entwine. KV Q As I sat near, onefsummer day, his I4 ., The strangest things I heard them say! A Said the sweet upeaiato the blushing rose: I think that no lone 'really knsws, How rough theseipeople are, wl'ien they .Ruthlessly pick our blossoms gay. V They pull so hard that almost all Our stems are loosened from the wall. And then the boys! fVThey jump and climb Over the wall, mostfiany time. The rose agreed, It's just too bad They must do that. But then, I'm glad That I have thorns, for these, you see Stick them, so they won't bother me! These words I heard beside the wall, Should be a lesson to us all., A THE GRADUATE At last the glorious end is near, The time for joyous mirth and cheer, When Iamust bid farewell to those Who helped mebring it to a close. Soon I'll be marching down the aisle, All dressed up in the usual style, My heart a-flutter, my face aglow, And vanished every thought of woe. Soon high upon the stage I'll sit, And hearken to each speaker's bit Of kind advice and hearty cheer, And sweet success in my career. rf' And then I'll hear my very name, E Called from: that honored flist of fame, ii I-low proudly' I'll, respond to it, 4 SE IOR SLAMS DISTINGUISHING HOW THEY NAME CHARACTERISTIC OTHERWISE AILMENT CURE GOT THROUGH DESTINY -Abelovitz, Fannie Hair Fay .

All around me I see radiant, smiling, young faces. How eagerly they rush to the sides of their parents and friends! How they beam at the compliments and congratulations and good wishes that are so freely showered upon them! My heart is filled with grief and envy. My own dear, loving brother, who has taken such tender care of me since the death of our parents. Why had he walked out before the exercises were over? Why hadn't he waited for me? I can't understand it. Oh! this happiness that I cannot share-it is unbearable. It is driving me mad. Ah-h! I-low refreshing the cool night air isg how soothing to theisoreness in my heart. I should not judge my dear brother so harshly. Who knows what had caused him to leave so suddenly? I'-Ie may be ill. Poor Tommy! I must walk faster. Home at last. Never was the sight of that little brown house more welcome than it is now. I never realized that there were so many steps to be climbed before We reach our door. But what does this mean? It is dark, and the door-it opens to my touch. A fear envelops me. Well, if this was destined to be the end of my uneventful life, I will face it bravely. 57 Someone has just turned the lights on in the other rooms. Who can be hiding in there? I wish I wou!dn't lose my senses so soon. I-Ieavens! What does all that shouting mean? Those confounded yells of Surprise! Surprise! Welcome! Good luck!,' those horns and rattles are deafening me. I am so dazed that I can only see a blur of faces about me. Why, here's Tommy putting his arms around me. I was worried about you, Tommy. I can hardly hear myself talk amidst that unceasing noise rushing in my ears. Just a little surprise, dear, I heard my brother whispering into my ear. So that was it. A surprise party. I could cry for joyg but not now, before all of these gay folksg so I'Il just greet them each in- dividually. There's Mary and Alice, and good old Joe. No, Tommy didn't forget anybody. Theylre all here. Who is that man, I wonder? I must go up to him and apologize for leaving him till the last. Where had I seen him before? I-Ie is no stranger, and yet- i A I-low do you do, Miss Owens? Quite a little lady now, aren't you?', I hear him saying in his cold, aloof voice, while his eyes appraise me from hair to toe. Why, is it possible? Maurice, the great-here-and talking to me! I am laughing to myself, bitterly, but aloud I man- age to say: l-low do you do, Mr. Arnold. You honor me greatly by coming to my little party. - Oh, well, you see, it was like this -fl-lm, he's interrupted me with that superior air of his.J- Your 'brother has told me what a great admirer of music you were-and-as he was so insistent that I come and play something for you, I finally consentedf' What shall I say to that? Tommy had sacrified his pride and had actually begged him to come to- night, for my sake. I owe it to Tommy to go through with it. I am trying to appear elated. And are you really going to play for us, Mr. Arnold? I-low wonderful that will be! Yes. You see, I have my violin with me and might as well and by the way Clocking at his wrist- watch? lid like to begin as soon as possible, as I have an important engagement in an hour or sof' Oh, certainly. I wouldn't want to keep you waiting unnecessarily. Will you excuse me for a few minutes while I talk it over with I'ommy?', With these words, I have left my distinguished guest and am again at Tommy's side telling him to prepare them all for the short program, while l run up to my room for .a few moments. All alone, again. I havenit quite gotten over the shock. First, the party and then, Maurice. Three years ago, Morris Arnold had been a jolly pal of my brother's I-le always loved music passionately, as I remember now. I-le was poor, you know and had almost given up all hopes of becoming an accom- plished musician because of his lack of funds. But Tommy always was good-hearted and could not bear to see his talent wasted. He gave him as much money as he could spare, inspired himg saw that he worked hard for his first recital. And Maurice Arnold's name became famous over night. Yes, he was a great success. But that success had spoiled him so that he did not know us when he saw us. That suc- cess made him the vile, aloof person that he is at this moment. l-low I despise him. The sooner he leaves the better. I'11 smooth my hair before I go down, and my nose needs a touch of powder. What,s this they're all saying to me. Mr, Arnold threatens to leave us without playing anything. 58 There's no one here who can read his music. Won't you try, Mollie, dear, please. Certainly, I'll try my best, if I may have that honor, gazing into Mr. Arnold's eyes. Seeing him nod his head, I sat myself at the piano. Incidentally this is one of my favorite numbers, and I am able to start off with ease. Ah! His music is like a spell. It overpowers me. A strange feeling envelops me. I seem to feel his eyes burning through me. Yes, they are on me and they have such a pitiful gaze in them. I had bet- ter keep my eyes on my music. The program is over. Too soon, theyire all shout- ing. But he has a pressing engagement, he is telling them. Thank goodness for that. But what's that he's saying? On my way back I promise to step in if the lights are still onf' That's rather thoughtful of him, I think, though I'm sure he won't return. I-Ie is gone with a hurried goodbye. The clock is striking two. The party is over. The guests have gone home. Somehow I cannot go to sleep on a beautiful night like this. I am sitting in the hammock gazing at the moon and the stars. A wonderful night, isn't it, Mollie? Am I asleep, and dreaming that he has come back? No, he is really here, beside me, with the same pitiful gaze in his eyes. Yes, Maurice, it is a wonderful night. A long silence between us. Then- I am a failure, Mollie, a bitter failure. I turned to look directly upon him. l-low heart- broken and sad he appears, with his hands covering his downcast face. Don't say that. You know we admired your music a great dealf, But it isn't the music that I mean, he bursts forth, so childlike, it's you, and Tommy. I know you think badly of me. I deserve it. l'm a rotter and a cheat. But I fail to make you see how sorry I am. I-low utterly miserable my selfishness has made me. I-low my pride has kept me back from asking your forgiveness. fDear heart! l-low shall I answer him? I-le ,holds my hand so tenderly. I-le must think l have no heart and soull. Oh, Mollie, can't we be friends again? VVon't .you give me a chance to prove my worth? 'Please, stop, stop! I can't bear to see you so miserable. You, a great musician. Your lot should be full of happiness. The moment I heard you play, I knew that you had changed to the same, old Morris that we had once so loved. fWon't he ever raise his head?J If you don't raise your head this minute and say, with a great big smile on your face, From now on we're going to be the best of friends again- Flommy, Mollie and I. You'll spoil this whole day for me and I'1l never, never forgive you for it. Ah, at last, his head was raised, and with a straight forward gaze, a slight smile hovering about his lips, he repeats confidently- From now on, we're going to be the best of friends again--Tommy, Mollie and as I. And live got a feeling that these words will hold fast until the end of humanity.

THE SEA SHELL I found a shell on the sandy shore, Carved by the ocean's band, Washed from the depths of the ocean Hoor, And colored in fairyland. The sea must have given its green and blue, And the song the sea shell sings, Unless fairies have stained its brilliant hue, By a touch of their gossamer Wings. A song of the sea is in the shell, A tale of a pirate crew, Or of some adventurer, who can tell? That has sailed the ocean blue. Of men who came from the Northern shores, Upon the deep rolling tide Strange men fwho strangely were attiredl In great vessels strong and wide. So lovely to me were the colors it wore, That again for the place it lay I searched, but the waves that lapped the shore, I-lad washed the shell away. -Galen Goewey.

THE MAN FROM MONTE CARLO ' By Nicholas Caputo Under a hot and sizzling sun the little town of Bellnut was peacefully slumbering. Its citizens, who numbered somewhere around l,500, were of the opin- ion that they had as much right as the town to slumber so they did likewise. In the late afternoon, Hank Russel, the telegraph operator, came tearing down Main Street with a tele- gram for the Mayor. This was a great occasion be- cause this was the hrst telegram that any Mayor had received while in office. The entire population turned out for this great occasion with expectations that the Honorable Michael Finklestein fthe Mayor himself, would read it aloud. Mike, as he was familiarly called, stood upon the proverbial soapbox and read with great relish the fol- lowing: To the Honorable Mayor and citizens of Bell- nut: I shall soon arrive in Bellnut where I intend to stay for at least three months. Have everything in readiness for me regardless of price because I have just arrived from Monte Carlo where I cleaned up. CSignedD Joseph Sweepster. Wild cheering followed this reading, and immedi- ately every citizen began to get ready for Mr. Sweep- ster. Finkelstein, the Mayor, went home and discarded his everyday overalls and put on his wedding suit, although it was the only one he possessed. Hank Russel polished the badge on his cap, used a clean handkerchief and rolled down his sleeves so as not to show his red flannels. Yes sir! Great changes were coming over Bell- nut and her citizens since the arrival of the message. l:.ven Fred Jones was chasing the usual store loafers away in order to give his 5 and l0c and Up store a lively looking appearance. A few Hags were put up 61 here and there and the sleeping town became one which fairly bristled with excitement. Bellnut's only hotel was put in readiness and great precaution was taken in preparing the expected al- rivalls food. At 5:30 P. M. the train rolled in and Bellnut's Mayor and a few prominent citizens who composed the reception committee awaited in great exictement the arrival of Joseph Sweepster. One solitary passenger descended from the train and with a well trained step and military bearing he approached Bellnut's committee while the train rolled onward. M. Finklestein and the others were overjoyed and shook hands with the new arrival. They all embarked on SlimH Carey's Ford Taxi for the hotel Where a motly crowd was assembled. They all cheered when they saw Mr. Sweepster, and Barney Newfield who was on the committee, threw out his chest and busted two buttons on his vest, thinking some of the cheering was for him. Joseph Sweepster paid Slim for the taxi ride giv- ing him a two dollar tip, and when Slim slipped this information to others, especially the merchants, they all began to visualize the gold mineu walking into their store and buying. Um-m-llu, thatls just what youid hear many citizens utter as they passed the hotel about supper time. The cause was simple, sweet odors of fried chicken, hot waflles, fresh watermelon, potato salad and strong coffee permeated the hotel and surround- ings for no other reason than that Mr. Joseph Sweeps- ter deserved nothing but the best. All the pretty girls made themselves as attractive as possible on the advice of their mothers. fWhat a day was this for the Romeos of Bellnutl for no longer did they stand a chancej. Wherever Mr. Sweepster was, there would you find Bellnut's pret- tiest maidens. They can't be blamed much for al- though Joseph Sweepster was forty he was handsome and he had other fine points such as personality, elbows and knees, not saying anything about his chin and nose. All these rural lassies did their best to ensnare this wonderful man with their countrified manners. hilt: Everywhere he went he was treated with the great- est of respect and courtesy. At the Commonwealth Barber Shop, owned and run by Theodore Lavallo, Mr. Sweepster received that which every other custo- mer desired and never got-that was a haircut, shave and conversation all of which were cut short. At Ye I-Iotte Dogge Shoppe where he went for curiosity mostly, he received the pups that were best developed and had the healthiest bark besides having a pedigree. Mr. Sweepster was very fond of watching other people work and as a consequence he daily visited the quarry belonging to Tony Rockmiller. CHAPTER II All this time clear reader, just one week has passed and as yet I have not told you that everything Joseph Sweepster bought was not paid for at the time of buy- ing. This was because the merchants trusted him and were reassured when he told them, that it was habitual for himself to pay his bills when he left, often paying an extra sum as a gift. This last was told the merchants by Mr. Sweepster himself. It will be well remembered that when Joseph Sweepster arrived he came without baggage and this he explained by the fact that his valet was stopping at a relatives in a far-off town and had brought his boss, bags with him. Although his bags with his clothes were not here Mr. Sweepster told his new acquaintances he would get new clothes right in Bell- nut and give the old away when they came. Within the first week he bought two 525 cowhide travelling bags, two suits of clothes, one dozen neck- ties, six shirts, fthree silkl, and a few other things. In fact he bought a whole new outlay, including shoes, which were shined by Nick,' the bootblack. One day Mr. Sweepster noticed an uneasy feeling among the merchants and going to each one asked how much he owed to each and after adding every- thing together found that he owed 35800. Then again going to each merchant he said the same thing, My! From the wonderful treatment I'm getting I thought surely I owed S2,000, but I find I only owe s800 for the week! This at once set the Bellnut business men at ease again. ' ' 62 Day in and day out Joseph Sweepster received the same good meals, courtesy attention and visits. One exceedingly stormy day when it was impossible to go out in the rain, many of the people gathered at the hotel and someone suggested to Mr. Sweepster he tell them of his stay at Monte Carlo. I shall never forget Monte Carlo, he began. It is the greatest gambling place in the world and the most notable notables of Europe can always be found there. I used to clean up at Monte Carlo sometimes three different times a day and other times only once but I don't believe there was ever a time that I didn't clean up. Most of my time I spent in the poorer class of the city where I would sip some wine. I can't tell you of my entire stay there but what I have just told you was the same every day. After it stopped raining and the sun came out Mr. Sweepster and his admirers left the hotel and went for a stroll through the woods. On his return the dinner that awaited Mr. Sweepster was fit for two kings to eat. , The next day was bright and eventful. Early in the morning after a fswelll sumptuous breakfast the gold mine went horse-back riding with the black- smith. After two hours of riding the two horsemen came to a ditch which had to be jumped. Here reader, imagine you see the Prince of Wales in Jo- seph Sweepstefs place and you know exactly what happened. After a painful and tiresome ride back the imitator visited the Last National Bank where he requested a loan of 53,000 which was willingly granted to him. Mr. Sweepster limped back to the hotel where he let it be known he would not receive any visitors and to have his supper sent up at six. Everything was just as he asked and no citizen of Bellnut saw any- thing of their new friend all that day. The next day Mr. Sweepster came down and said he felt a little better. At about 2.30 p. m. he slowly sauntered up toward the railroad station which was about as big as a closet with an extension. Withiil the station sat Hank, profusely interested in a book entitled, Stiletto Joe from Pocono. The effects of this book on I-lank may bell be seen by the fact that when Joseph Sweepster lightly entered the station he found himself staring into a one cylinder 48 calibre baley cannon which was in the hands of Mtzsfl-ess no less a personage than lVlr. Hank Russell. When the operator recognized his visitor he immediately be- came embarrassed and confused. He started to apologize faster than any train ever passed through Bellnut. After all due apologizing Mr. Sweepster casually began to ask questions about the different parts of the station and the job of Hank. With this lead up I-lank's visitor asked when the next train would come and received the reply that the next train would ar- rive in two days which was Saturday and also it would be the last one for two weeks. This information made a knowing smile spread over the countenance of Bellnut's distinguished visitor and after praising Hank Russel for his efficiency he left. The rest of the afternoon he spent in studying the entire vicinity of the railroad track and became par- ticularly interested in a group of trees around which grew shrubbery and again that knowing smile ap- peared. Friday, the next day, was a dreary and damp day for a drizzling rain had set over' the town. lVlr. Sweepster spent the morning in reading and after din- ner he claimed to have a headache and retired to his room. Once within it he immediately began to pack all his belongings, Call which were acquired in Bell- nutl. After supper he chatted gayly with several friends and they departed as soon as the drizzle changed to a downpour. About midnight a solitary creature carrying two valises could be seen slinking toward the outskirts of the town in the direction of the railroad. At a close glance one would immediately recognize Mr. Sweeps- ter but every citizen of Bellnut, including Hank Rus- sel was sleeping at this late hour. The figure stole toward the cluster of trees he had previously visited and in a secluded spot hid his two bags. He then retraced his steps and with a sigh of relief lay down to sleep. I-le awoke the next day bright and early and told the hotel proprietor he was going out for a walk be- fore the rest of the citizens of Bellnut awoke. He immediately set out for the hiding place of his bags and there he sat down to rest. At about eight o'clock he saw the smoke fromthe engine of the approaching train. Slowly he started toward the tracks with the bags in his hand and when the train pulled in he boarded it on the side opposite the town and thus escaped all observation from that trolley forsaken town. The train then proceeded and Mr. Joseph Sweepster gazed his last upon Bellnut. At the next town Mr. Sweepster wrote and mailed a letter. , CHAPTER III. Back at Bellnut Mr. Sweepster was greatly missed at dinner and supper time and immediately the police force was called out. After the force of one lined up his instructions were given to him and when the day expired he returned without his quarry but gave forth the news that he had hopes of finding or hear- ing some news of lVlr. Sweepster the next day and little did he guess how near the truth he came. This last statement made the Bellnut merchants lose all forebodings of ill. The next day the Mayor came walking down the street with an opened letter in one hand a big red bandana nose map in the other with which he dried the half gallon of tears that fell from his eyes. Wheii all had finally gathered about him and he had stopped wailing he managed to read the follow- ing: To the most Honorable Mayor and Citizens of Belf- nut:- There is nothing that ever pleased me more than the way I was treated in your most hospitable town. 011 my behalf thank the business men of Bellnut for the credit they extended me and also give my regards to the bank president. You probably clon't know that I'm too light for heavy worlg and too heavy for light worlg and must therefore do what I can to live without working. You are under the impression that I am rich. I told you I cleaned up at Monte Carlo but 1 was only the janitor. Yours, JOSEPH S WEEPS TER. 1. . 63. TI-IE LITTLE SHEPHERD OF KINGDOM I Substance- Margaret--the name sent through Chad The most wonderful thrills, I-Ie would give all he had For her curls and her frills. But there was Melissy, A mountain-bred maid, Who, with silent devotion, To Chad her heart laid. Then came the war, The Civil War, 'you know, Turning Chad from the door Of one helloved so. For he was with the North, To light for victoryg While she was for the South, And likewise Mel-is-sy. And also Margaret's brothers, Parted friends though foes, One for the blue-t'other for the gray, Causing their family many woes. Throughout the long years This terrible war wagered, 'Till at last Chad came home With the title of Major! 'Twas then with deep regret I-Ie learned of the sad death Of Melissy, who had last cried Chad!,' before she had died. But Margaret was there, Still with her jet curly hairg And, as he smiled full of bliss, She answered his smile with a kiss. COME Gertrude Kiell 11- OPINION I have just finished reading a book. 'Tis entitled The Shepherd of Kingdom Come, And, seated in my cosy nook, I think of the people, and where they were from. First the hero, Chad Buford, A most noble and gallant man, Referred to in here as the shepherd Because of his travels all o'er the land. And then the heroine, Margaret Dean, A bit haughty and of Southern birth, But ne'er a prettier girl was seen Always so gay and full of mirth. Then we have Melissy true, So bitter against Chad's colors of blue, And many a person was caused to sigh At the way Melissy was wont to die. And last but not least there is Jack, The faithful old dog of Chad, Who would through fire and water for him, With the full canine spirit he had. Mighty interesting I found this book, As I sat curled up in my cozy nook, Every part delightfully told, Especially the scenes in times of old. And oft, when on my couch I lie, In vacant or in pensive mood, They flash upon that inward eye Which is the bliss of solitude. I-lerman Wilson-I think --- Crowd-Y ou think? Impossible! 64 ALL YEAR SCHOOL SITUATION By Carl Edwin Tapper In the latter part of June this year two experts on education were engaged by the Board of Education to determine the advisability of making a survey of the all-year schools. These experts were Dr. lVl. V. O'Shea, Dean of the School of Education of the University of Wisconsin, and Wilson Farrand, I-lead Master of the Newark Academy. After the abolition of the All-Year Schools in the summer of l924 the Student's Aid Society canvassed most of the city, getting petitions signed for the con- tinuance of them. The Board of Education, on see- ing that there existed much sentiment against their decree to abolish the system, postponed the abolition for one year. This September the all-year school system was to be abolished in accordance with the Board of Education's decision of l924. The two experts mentioned before starting their investigation, were given statistics and all the neces- sary information concerning the system by the Board of Education. On visiting the various all-year schools in Newark, they were amazed to discover that per- sonalities were involved in this controversy, and that animosities existed between the administrative officers of the Board of Education and they Principals and teachers of the all-year schools, as well as many other things of vital importance. They stated that a professional and even a per- sonal chasm has developed between the administrative officers on the one side and the principals and teachers on the other side. Almost immediately they felt the hostility between the proponents and the opponents of the all-year school system. On the one side they heard that subordinates are insubordinatesg on the other that administrative officers are unsympathetic and are even hostile to those who administer all-year schools. Charges of similar character were also made to them by various laymen. Although at the outset they were determined to keep personal charges out of their report they found it impossible. They thought it imperative to say, however, that the school system of Newark cannot op- erate harmoniously unless this conflict between ad- ministrative OITICCIS, principals, and teachers can be eliminated, and saw no way to bridge the chasm ex- 65 cept to secure accurate data relating to every essen- tial question pertaining to the all-year schools, and then to agree upon a uniform method of interpreting the data so that conclusions will not be so widely dif- ferent as they have found them to be. The most difficult condition the consultants en- countered in their investigation was the serious discrep- ancies in the carefully worked out reports explaining every phase of the all-year school given to them by the Board of Education compared to those of the principals of the various all-year schools. The report points out that there is the widest difference of opin- ion by the superintendent and his associates on the one side and the principals of the all-year schools on the other. The experts stated that even the same tables of data were interpreted by the oponents and proponents in diametrically opposite ways. Conflicting reports were given to the investigators as to the cost of the all-year schools compared with that of the traditional schools. From the conflicting reports the experts reached the conclusion that the all-year schools are not more ex- pensive. Tests tended to show on the whole that all-year schools are inferior to the traditional schools, but, however, the problem of bi-lingual, economic, racial, and hygienic difficulties have not been given any con- sideration whatsoever in these tests that have been studied by the investigators. The experts added that the problem was extremely complicated because of these bi-lingual, economic, racial and hygienic fac- tors existing in the districts in which the schools are located. They have had before them the proposal to substi- tute summer schools for the all-year schools. It was proposed to operate the summer schools so that back- ward pupils might make up deficiencies and gifted pu- pils might accelerate their progress during the grades. Under this plan the dehcient and the gifted pupils, who constitute only 25 per cent. of the student body, will go to summer school in July and August. What will the other 75 per cent. of normal students do? They were thoroughly convinced that most of the children in the sections of Newark ministered to by the NIUE' all-year schools were far better off in every way in school for four or five hours a day than on the streets or in the so-called playgrounds. They visited the various playgrounds, where they failed to find one that adequately met the requirements of a playground, and they could not believe that the 75 per cent. of normal children would of their own choice spend much, if any, of their time during the heated months in these bare cement or gravel inclosures. They visited classrooms, and observed pupils at work and in assembly. They were greatly pleased with the appearance, spirit, and application of the children. They could not Hnd a word of criticism of anything they saw in these schools and they have no doubt whatever, that the children in sections of the city under consideration would gain in health, character, in general well-being, as well as in mental development by spending July and August in school, rather than in the places which they would frequent if they were not in school. They stated furthermore that one might interpret the data presented to them supplemented by what they have observed in the schools visited, and what they have seen of the social economic and hygenic condi- tions in the sections served by the all-year schools, that these schools are confronted by unbelievable difli- culty and that they- are accomplishing their tasks with great success. In conclusion they said that unless the problem of the all-year schools is solved in view of accurate and adequate data, there will be left in Newark ills that will never heal, and irreparable damage will be done. They believe that if such investigation as they recom- mended is made, and if administrative officers and principals sit about the same table and consider the data they have secured by an impersonal survey, it will be possible to eliminate the suspicion, antagonism, and animosity which now make it impossible for the school system to function harmoniously and efficiently. They believe that the all-year schools should be con- tinued with all the administrative aid that can reason- ably be furnished to them until such an investigation as they have recommended is made, and the results are discussed by administrative officers, principals and teachers with the Board of Education acting as judge and unpire to enforce, if necessary, acceptance of and 66 compliance with the conclusions to be derived from data secured without bias, prejudice, preconception or personal motives of any kind. ln New York there were three summer high schools in 1924. As these were insufficient, this year they opened four summer high schools, and still hundreds are turned away from the registration offices for lack of room. These schools give earnest children and those who realize they must leave school early an op- portunity to do four years' work in three. Our wasteful three months' vacation is a vestige of the rural age, when children were needed for work in the fields and home. Today it has the effect of forcing many youngsters into an unwholesome street environ- ment. Newark, New Jersey, and Gary, Indiana, have al- ready advanced to the all-year school. The Virginia State Board of Education recommended the all-year school. Norfolk has the plan already, and Rich- mond has just adopted it. In Newark, it cost, in 1924, 3151910.12 to gradu- ate a pupil in the three traditional high schools. In the Central All-Year school it cost S5125620, which shows that 215654.42 is saved by the all-year system for each graduate. The total number of graduates from Barringer, South Side and East Side in 1925 was 567 or I0.33 per cent. of their enrollmentg Barringer, 11.4 per cent., South Side, 12.61 per cent.g East Side, 7 per cent. From Central 405 were graduated or 1 1.7 per cent. of its enrollment. In this connection it must be understood that Central serves 39.7 per cent. of the total High School enrollment and that Central has QU principal, 98 teachers and clerks and one Q11 building, compared to three C31 principals, 212 teachers and three QD buildings fBarringer, South Side and East Sidej. New York long ago developed a system by which vacation schools, from kindergarten up, were co-ordi- nated with play centers, and no doubt it will be de- veloped into the all year plan. Naturally the trend of modern education is toward the all-year school, because it embodies the modern ideas of economy, efficiency, and opportunity. We who know it believe it to be an inevitable development, and hence we believe it is here to stay. HOW TO KEEP SICK By faclg Halprin Dr. B. Ill has published an interesting little pam- phlet on how to get sick 5 how to keep sick and how to make others sick. This is welcome information and fills a long felt want. Among the other suggestions made by Dr. Ill, I note that the leading one is Think Sickness. That is, if you want to have any particular disease, concen- trate your mind upon it. There are times when a disease is very handy. When you want to dominate your husband it is often very effective to use the tyranny of tears. If you have worked up a father of self-pity and want your wife's sympathy, it will be much easier to get it if you can come home, fall limp into a chair and roll your eyes. l-fence, if you wish to have a bad spell say to your- self: Day by day in every way l am feeling worse and worse. Another valuable piece of advice is-talk sickness. It is well known that our words affect our opin- ions by a sort of reaction. Therefore, make it a point to talk about every sort of pain, itch or gripe, that you may have or have had or expect to have. Talking sickness is easy and pleasant. It gets you sympathy and attention, and is the shortest road to being conspicuous. Other pertinent hints are: No work of any kind. Work greatly interferes with the progress of disease and sometimes even stops it. People who work right along do not seem to find time to be sick. Eat as much as possible. Always eat a little more than you want. Particularly eat plenty of pastry and meat. These foods produce unhealthy fat and are full of various poisons which will be of great value in promoting your ailments. Always drink ice water after meals so as to chill your stomach and prevent digestion. When traveling, drink strange waters freely. This gives you a hne chance to get typhoid. Donlt chew your food. Bolt it. Wash it down with plenty of liquids. This saves time and is a good health preventive. Don't think about what you eat. Eat what you like. Comfort yourself with the saying that what is one man's food is another man's poison and that no- body knows anything about died anyway. Scorn all information regarding calories, vitamines and such nonsense. Eat plenty of candy and drink quantities of soda water and ginger ale and the like. This will help you get rid of your teeth and also assist in securing dia- betes. Read the patent medicine advertisements. Try all the new patent medicines. Consult fakers freely. Never visit a regular physician when you are well in order to find out how to keep from being sick. Wait till you are very ill, and then call him in. Worry as much as possible, read plenty of gloom literature and don't forget that everybody who is cheerful is a hypocrite. TO OUR GALLANT FOOTBALL TEAM By Fay Foreland We shall be with you noon by noon, When flags are flying from every roof, When the torn ground rings to the rousing tune, Of the bounding ball and the racing hoof, Skilled are the foes ye shall meet and fightg On many a field they have won renown: But this is our game by an age-old right, And where are the men shall fight us down? 67 Z. Swift to the front with hand and heel, Lean and run for it! Charge and swing! Run and follow, check and wheel Till cheers from the rocking bleachers ring Fight for Central and let them know That we carry a pride that is ill to tame. Our spirit still with the years does growg And football forever is Central's game. IN TI-IE MOUNTAINS Nora Middleloli, I IO a. m. I. II.

Mr. Calman, our able faculty advisor, has done much to make this club one of Central's foremost or- ganizations. The officers of the club are: President-Mollie Newmark. Vice-President-Ida Geller. Secretary-Johanna Nieberg. BON VOYAGE Miss Undritz, head of the leaving Central for one year.

Cohen-Please don't remind me of it. Officers for the terms are: Herman Toplonsky-President. Sarah Lutsky-Vice-President. Margaret Inverarity-Secretary. Hannah Brody-Treasurer. At the end of last term the above officers were elected and immediately committees were formed to continue the good work that the club is engaged in do- ing. The purpose of the club is to promote an inter- est for music and to give the musically interested stu- dent a chance to play before a small audience, so that when eventually the student turns to music as a serious following, he will have a firm foundation. YE CENTRAL CI-IATTER This chatty little publication has filled a want that was long felt in Central. As regards news, editorials and gossip it is unsurpassed, as was proven by the eagerness with which our student body bought copies. From a literary and financial standpoint our Chatter was a complete success. However, herels the rubg because of the lack of sports and general activities during the summer term, the faculty advisor, Mr. Conovitz, has wisely de- cided to discontinue this publication until the winter term begins. - 69 We anxiously await the time the Chatters,' will appear and hope they will be as good as those previ- ously published. AIMS OF THE ART DEPARTMENT Your clothing, your home, and its furnishings, this school building, Branch Brook Park, Brooklyn Bridge and the Archon Pin were each an artist's dream before they were a reality. Back of every walk in life, works the planner, the designer, the architect, the artist or the engineer. I-Iis dream will be ideal if it combines the practical and the beautiful. Even a hammer or an engine is in its highest efficiency when it has reached its most perfect proportions. The Art Department of Central teaches this dis- criminating taste. Its art is applied to the problems of every-day living. Through the actual working out of the courses, the mind and fingers conceive, create and perfect the ideals of beauty and practicality of the things of every day life. ANOTHER PRIZE WINNER In a contest conducted by Our World Weekly, of New York, first prize was won by Dorothea Epstein, of Central I-Iigh School of this city, it was announced recently. The contest called for the writing of an essay on the subject: What Am I Going to Bef' Miss Epstein gave an outline of the ideals she ex- pected to follow in the business world. On an earlier occasion Miss Epstein Won a Central High School contest for the best ballad, in connection with the tablet on the Revolutionary War skirmish at Market and Washington Streets. Miss Epstein will graduate in August. Mo... Etta G.-I met a young man yesterday, whose very touch thrilled me. Tapper-Who was that?

But with the beginning of the fall term they will again take up their splendid work. TECHNICAL CLUB At the first meeting of the Technical Club this term the following members were elected to ollicez President-Leonard Nusbaum. Vice-President--Ernest Schneider. Secretary-Theodore Fuss. Treasurer-Peter Cahn. The Technical Club have taken trips to Castle Co., Pyreene Co., and Brooklyn Navy Yard. These trips have proven an invaluable service to those in the Technical Club. HAIL TO OUR FUTURE DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY At present Central has no Woman teacher who has received a doctorate. Miss Oellrich, an instructor of Latin in Central, has been granted a year's furlong in which she contemplates further study of Latin. Miss Oellrich, having completed her four year college course, received her A. B. degree and one year later received her A. M. Both of these degrees were re- ceived from Barnard College, the women's college of Columbia University. This fall, she will return to her Alma Mater and continue research work which she has already started, with the hopes of receiving her Ph.D. degree. The students of the Central Latin Department will surely miss her but nevertheless they all wish her the best of luck. She also has the sin- cerest wishes for success from the Senior Class of August, l925. SCHOOL NEWS Apologies to O. O.

We have tried to give each one a comment. The most noticeable defect we have made is that many of the publications are too short. This makes it necessary to have short de- partments. Naturally, when a paper is printed, as much news, as many stories, as many jokes, and everything that makes a paper interesting, should be used. The Mi1'1'o1'-One of the best exchanges we have received. , The Chatham Chatter-You have a dandy paper and your jokes are splendid. Oracle-Plainjielcl High School-Your paper is ine, but a few more jokes would greatly improve it.

ARCI-ION CLUB At all eventful moments our athletic heroes are ap- plauded with cheersg their victories displayed upon our wallsg and their names immortalized in the hall of fame. Little or naught do we think of our intellec- tual heroesg rarely do we honor them with their due laurels. The chief scope of the Archon Club, apart from bestowing unfading honors upon our mental athletes thus obliterating an hitherto injustice, is to erect our Alma Mater more securely upon an unyielding bul- Wark--the pedestal of educational activitiesg to create and disseminate the spirit of a superior calibre of scholarship among its members in order better to pre- pare them for their future careers and chosen pro- fessions. To create prodigies of our immature scholars is probably beyond our abiliies, but to pave their paths and direct their course is our aim and fully within our powers. As an artist cannot labor without his pastels: as a monarch cannot rule without his domain, so We can- not accomplish nor propagate our ideals without the essential members. To enumerate the secondary ad- vantages of the Archon Club would be to manifest what is self-evident. May the -name of our Alma Mater-Central I-Iigh live eternallyg summer and winter, may its fame ring out from the lips of the educational world uninterrup- tedly everlastingly g may her students always pre- dominate mentally-such is the prayer of the Archon Club.

One of our Alumni has been bucking through the game of life since he was graduated way back in January, 1914. On June 22, 1925 this honorary student, C. Walton Tompkins, received his Ph. D. degree from the Uni- versity of Wisconsin. Dr. Tompkins, it is believed, is the Hrst of our graduates to receive a doctorate. Do you realize what that means, fellow Centralites? It means seven full years of hard study and brain expansion and very often eight or nine years of it. It means that he now knows as much as any of his teachers, and can be a High School Teacher himself, it he wishes. Although Doctor Tompkins was handicapped by ill health and a few thousand other things, that he c1ic1n't tell us about which necessitated many breaks in his college work, he persisted nobly right to the end in his endeavor to attain a doctorate. 1-le has made a specialty of the study of plant life, and will continue doing research work along that line. Now Centralites, it is our duty to bestow upon this Doctor a vote of thanks for putting us on the first rung of the Golden Ladder. Dr. Tompkins, we all wish you the best of luck and good fortune.
