Ou now o forth into the real world of men and things to engage ii])on real ta.sk.s. The next few year.s will ])rove the acid test of your ca])abilities, sturdiness of character, ability to rise above discouragements and the lures of cit ' life. I ' hat which is worth having, is worth striving for. The fact that you have .s])e nt three years at The National Farm School, is an evidence of your desire to make some branch of agriculture your vocation. No business or profession offers more to the young man of individuality and pluck, who is willing to work hard, — than farming. Few projects can be startefl with as little capital, and bring better returns in proportion to the brain and brawn invested. No pur- suit offers greater opportunities for health, hap])iness and independence. A di])K)ma is in itself no open sesame to a well-paid or eas ' job. Promotion and success de])end upon yourself. You have been trainetl for your job, — go to it, — it is up to you to follow through . I voice the ho])e for your success, held in the thoughts of oiu- Faculty, Trustees and the generous ])ublic who make this School possible. I trust that you will achieve the best results from the advantages received here. In these extremely com])etitive and strenuous times, with city jobs greatly overcrowded, an agriculturist properly e(|uii)])etl for his job, who employs integrity, energy and ambition, is on the high road to satisfactory living. You must not always consider success on a dollar and cents basis, but rather in work well done, in contentment, in health and the knowledge that you are rentlering service for the common good. When on your job, always remember You must learn to obey before you command . Work steadily, honestly and conscientiously for your employer; save a good proportion of your salary, so that some day you may be able to ])urchase and manage your own farm. You are all our boys, and I want you to feel that your welfare and advance- ment at all times are very close to my heart. When in the neighborhood of Doylestown, or 1701 Walnut Street, Phila- ilelphia, we shall always be glad to see you. Yours for success, - Herbert D.

Ip Yours has been a rare privilege in that you spent three years §!| ( at The National Farm School, during a new epoch in its pFl historv. 3j During your stay at Farm School you had the privilege of IIS working under a revised curriculum, in new and modern build- S ' ings, with new machinery, and under an enlarged faculty. •3 Under these conditions you have had an opportunity to secure §iK a training which vour Facultv ho])es has fitted vou for a life ' s career. Your class is graduating at a time when farming and indus- ' try is at a low ebb; to meet the world in such a condition pfl should prove to be to your advantage; your education and fe§ training will helj) in bringing agriculture back to a normal P S condition. s I congratulate the class upon their fine accomplishments 1:; during their three years at Farm School. Let me admonish SfM you to be mindful of your Alma Mater, who is ever ready l| to give assistance. § Sincerelv, Dean  CLETUS L.

He was easily one of the wittiest of the class. In his Freshman and part of his Junior -ear, Boz was one of our serious members. However, upon finding that his looks and humor were potent weapons.

Phil is the answer to the prayer of a despairing coach who is just on the verge of ending it all and going to the happy Olympic grounds where virtuous athletes are plentiful. Nature was lavish- ingly kind when she endowed Phil with his Athletic abilities. Phil specialized in Cireenhousing when not on the field and under his gentle hands the sweet peas flourished. His interests were also attracted to Poultry, which perhaps solves the mystery of the missing tapons.

Kal has little tiffs with the office now and then, but . fter all (favorite words) when one is so young one is bound to be lively and gay, and surely no one will hold it against this energetic blond who has done so much for his school and class, athletically and socially.

Then for the first week or so all j our dreams seemed to have come true: but the reality was not to 2j l remain ours without some price. The worthy upper classmen we found, ?is€ were our creditors and we without any knowledge of the greatness of our H i debt, their debtors. It is not inconceivable then, that at times we thought §|gs our debt to be too large and our creditors too harsh in demanding paym ent. 11 Of our first opjjortunities to liquidate this debt, we took full advantage. Among these was the Freshman-Junior boxing match, in which novices m and soft though we were, we lost only by the score of 4-3. Every classman ' aW was heart and soul for the team. Between that and the next chance to pav ipj came an addition to our debt in the form of a freak election in which our good faith was violated and an arbitrary selection for presidency was made by the worthy upjjerclassmen. The wrestling bouts then came along and we added Kj to our assets by holding the Juniors to a tie in the number of matches won aestg and lost. We were also accumulating credit by the way of conscientious Slsiffe work in the fields. In the baseball game the Juniors blasted our hopes for gip freedom by a win of 6-0. In the interclass football game with the invaluable J aid of Albert W. Hoguet, and captained by Phil Kleinman, we recouped a j ' great portion of our athletic prestige by a spirited, flashy, soul-satisfying win of 19-6. Thus encouraged, the class put all it had in the basketball contest g and was only defeated by the narrow margin of one point: 17-16. 3i|!? Having lined ujj a list of assets with our athletic ability and having added i to this assets in scholarshij) and labor in the field, part of our score was e tP settled and we were graduated into the Junior Class. e 5 Junior Year : T BEIN(i now our turn to demand some payment from the lower class- men, we decided after much debate to make their tlebt somewhat less than had been demanded of us: There were no mid-night parties, facial Cp i massages, etc. There was a sentiment toward a more highly civilized form of class relationship. In the interclass games it was up to us to lead the way M and this we ditl by the following scores: In boxing because of two unavoidable p forfeitures, we lost to the Freshmen by 4- ' -2. Our wrestlers, considerably strengthened from the last year, won easily 6 matches to 1 for the op])onents. The baseball team cleaned up by 10-7. Then came the game of games! i| l Excitement was high over the outcome of the football match. Both teams trained hard, but the game went to the ducks for no other creatures could Sc ii tf (j i i c ' V .-f ?rs ci J j rA r7 ; si f«a -f A s ' V; l i ' S ■4 32 !=• have navif att ' d a fiold like that ])resented to the contestants on the appointed day. After sHpi)in ;, coasting, bathing and tasting of oUl Mother Earth, the game ended in a scoreless tie. In haskethall (he spirited opposition of the plebes was favored by a hist minute toss which gave them the game at ' i -Sl. We were fast emerging as social lights and the bright spot of the year was The Jnnior Prom. Although less elaborate than previous affairs, it was yet original, and pleasing both to our fair visitors and friends and to the class treasury. A good number of the class turned carpenters, decorators and designers in short notice for the occasion. The Class of ' ;50 was winding u its last affairs and at this time we were called into conference to decitle upon our Senior year projects. Thereafter a new spirit ])revailed as with high hopes and brimming with energy we looked forward to oiu ' last lap. Senior Year ' ' J N SENIOR Year we act our parts. M A lively election battle with plenty of fireworks set the new year in motion. It was not absolutely certain whether the gears would mesh com])letely and smoothly, but after the first few trials and some well needed oiling the rim was made. As time went on the action became smoother and brought the following results: During the year several imjjortant undertakings were begun and suc- cessfully accomplished with . ' 51 taking a leading ])art and with the coopera- tion of ' 3 ' -2 and ' 3:5. The Landsca])ers added to the beauty of the campus by grading and seeding six and a half acres of lawn. Along the newly-established road, trees were planted and around the new building a distinctive foundation planting was made. A perennial flower bed and a background for it of a variety of deciduous and evergreen trees and shrubs was established. A new appear- ance was given to the front of the Dean ' s house by a formal foundation plant- ing, and a screen ])lanting was put up around the baseball backstop. With the addition of the Homer farm, the Horticultural department ' s activities expanded especially in the number of acres given over to vegetables. A new peach orchard was also established and bumper crops harvested every- where as well as the season would allow. The poultrymen had a most successful hatching and brooding season and moved to a larger range this year. For this space, 10 new range houses were built in the shoj s. IVIany im])rovements were made in the laying houses, especially those concerning sanitation, insulation and watering. The greenhouse squad tried many new crops to gain experience and came through with a very profitable season. - 33 =- s m 5 1 3 : 3 1 The maternity barn work, the increased number of cows of different breeds, the rearrangement of the creamery for Pasteurization brought added opportunities to the dairymen — of which they took full advantage. The mechanics and general agriculture men. by their untiring efforts, brought in extra large yields of general crops on time and in fine condition. Counting the acreage covered by this crew, theirs was no small task. The work of the council this year was unsurpassed. Mienever help was needed it was prom])tly and willingly given. The dances were put over in a manner which left satisfaction with everyone. Other main activities of the year were the handling of the not-to-be- forgotten Potato Growers ' Convention and the dining room system. Athletically the year was extremely satisfactory. For the first time in school history, a single man. Philip Kleinman. 31. was captain of all three major sports. The baseball season brought an undefeated record. Football. a score with but one defeat and basketball an extra long schedule with no disappointments. Neither will the work of the band, led by Kalman Liskowitz for two seasons, be forgotten. Their concerts were a great feature of every public gathering in school and of many meetings away. The Qleaner took no backward seat this year. In fact for variety of material, general and wide interest it was a success as comments have shown. The language is not at our command, with which we might tell of friend- shi]is formed, the bull sessions enjoyed, the work done shoulder to shoulder and the lessons learned from one another and from our faculty. It is, however, easy to say that from the seed sown in these various ways many beautiful flowers are sure to arise: some in fact have alreadv arisen.

Class Prophecy T ' () PROFESS to be a humorist would constitute self-flattery which is t an unpardonable trait. I have looked for hours and could find nothing witty or subtle in this. But I will attempt in a humble way. merely to relate a chronicle of events which I had the good fortune of ex])eriencing in the year of our Lord, One Thousand Nine Hundred and I orty-six. To that year the following paragraph from Dickens is applicable: It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the spring of ])romise. it was the winter of despondency; it was the epoch of brutality and selfishness, it was the epoch of magnanimity and unselfishness, it was a period of belief and a period of incredulity, workers existed, parasites thrived, man had conquered everything, man had conquered nothing. Bel-Geddes guess as to the condition of the times was remarkably pro- phetic. Notable revelations, characteristic of this so-called enlightened age. became more startling each month. There were double deck streets, divided into lanes for slow stop-off trafBc. and lanes for express traffic. Structures were built to one hundred and fifty stories, piercing the clouds. Steel for building had been replaced by an alloy lighter but with more durability and strength. AutomobDes were operated from a central unit, containing engine and transmission, and a new fuel of vastly increased jjower and smaller tnilk su])erseded gasoline. In the home, mechanical devices supplanted time-worn household tradi- tions. Maids were extinct. Many roofs had gardens. All dwellings were ventilated by artificial means: heating plants were su])plemented by air. heated or cooled, delivered from a central plant. Corres])ondence courses and lectures were broadcast by television from agricultural colleges to rural homes. Art divided itself into three schools — the cubistic, modernistic and futuristic: no one knew what they were all about, not eve n the daubers. And so on ad infinitum. Much of this progress had but little significance to me. Imbued with conservatism. I ilid not ajjprove of these rapid changes. What end were they attaining. In contrast, how well I now recall those days of long ago, when I had been a student at the Farm School, days when I had thrown care to the winds, moments in which I had rejoiced in exhilarating effects of pure unadulterated air and i)leasant companions: times when it had been jjossible to exude sweat from the brow by honest toil. In short, an epochal three years which I will cherish unto death, for the close attachments which I made with fellow students, and even the animals in barn and field. Sick at heart, and curious of learning what hatl been the ultimate fates of my former jials, I conferred with a conjurer. Skeptical as I was of his abilities, nevertheless. I paid him my respects, and in a little while he told me that which I so longed to hear. -=|40J=- Iiii;it; ' in ' my i)l( ' ;isurc wlicii tin ' s sai c .-il ' tci ' suiiiiiioiiinti ;ill liis jjowers, informed me that those whom I was so desirous of seeing ' , were sciittered tliroufihout tile h ' njj,th and breadth of Enro|)e, some in the ari()iis stages of ad -ersity while others were more fortunate. But of the exact location of each indi idual lie could not enlighten me. Swelled with enthusiasm and optimism. 1 felt that were I to seek them, my search would not be in vain. Hurriedly ])acking necessities for a foreign tour, I obtained ]jassage on a inanmioth dirigible which accommodated several thousand passengers. . n airship of such ])roportions had never been dreamt of in my youth. Extraordinary develo])meuts for the cond ' ort and enjoyment of the ' ovagers were in e ' idence throughout. After sitting down to a])i)ease my raA-enous ap])etite, who should a])])roach me but Monsieur Sherman, the chief steward, looking very important in brass buttons and serge. For anld acquaintance sake, he provided me with an excellent cuisine. From him I learned of the w-hereabouts of some of my friends, with whom he had communicated by television from the boat. These facts I carefully noted for future reference. During the trij) I made the acquaintance of a fashionable lady whose lineaments bespoke royalty. I was disappointed to learn that she was not an eligible young miss, but this knowledge turned to sur])rise when I learned in the course of a tcte-a-tcte that she was the wife of Shindelman, who was now a Duke, and ojierating for diversions ' sake, a beauty salon. Fjwn alighting at the hangar in Liverpool two days later, a peculiar voice greeted my ears. Coming closer to a faintly familiar looking person, I recognized Finkle, who was shouting the jjlane schedules with great gusto. Mike was glad to see me, and told me that his ])resent occu])ation trained his voice which he was cultivating for singing the Blues in the ollies. From him I garnered more information: lark (ioldman had been made Poet Laureate in due respect to his singular work in drama, philosophy, poetry and satire. He was living on the Isle of Jersey with Cohen, esteemed also as a literateur and landscape architect. On the same island Hociak maintained a ])ure bred herd of Jerseys, which made Mark homesick by its sounds and odors. Crossing over to the Island of (Juernsey whom should I meet but Gold- berg. Here he was sunning himself on the lawn of a beautifully landscaped estate, reading a book and smoking an after-dinner pipe. His jileasure at see- ing a representative of ' 31 was so great that he immediately invited me to re- main with him and meet his beautiful wife and children. In the course of several long conversations, I discovered that he was owner of several large greenhouses and was raising grapes for the King. From here, I hopped off to Bath, not that I needed one, but to visit Tom Cancelmo, my jovial friend. Arriving at a commodious castle I met Tom, fat and forty, dressed in kilts knocking up turf where a little white pill should have been. Making myself known to him was an easy matter, and after re}ilenishing my thirst with some rare vintages, he disclosed plans whereby he hoped for the first time to win the Austin Cup from America with his new -4 41 •• glS entry (iuzzle VI i)er cent, first in command of whicfi. was the intrepid cai)tain - and ha])i)y old fellow, Harvey Trunk. r. Taking leave of him, via the Saltsgiver and Moysey Airlines. T td., I i journeyed to London where 1 hoped to view everything of historical interest, §||g and also to j)urchase some famed Bond Street creations. Once on this thorough • ! fare, my eyes were attracted to a large sign, boldly asserting that this was the establishment of Werst, Ltd., clothiers by appointment to H. R. H. I ' pon |; entering. I was beseiged by a grou( of high-])owered salesmen, but I selected tff Compton. who from all indications, would fleece me the least. I bought Os£ several worsted garments from Werst, and ile()arted. My next destination was Paris, the home of fine arts intermingled with ■ gaiety and reckless abandon. After getting my fill of wondrous sights, I J5 decided to take in the equally famous Folies Bergere, the criterion of old V world musical comedy. In the lobby were many modernistic renditions of t- undraped females in characteristic jjoses. Adjusting my pince-nez to dis- ' cover the artist, I read ' Schwerin, .SI . Seated in the theatre, a crackling noise caused me to turn around and I came face to face with Ray. who was hapjiily munching polly seeds, cjuite oblivious to the presence of anyone but 1 himself. Three seats away sat Brown, already asleep over a bag of potato £ chijis. l The lights of the theatre were dimmed, the orchestra of ninety pieces 1%: led by Liskowitz, the famous impresario, struck up Grisdale ' s masterful ?■■ com]}osition, The Rhajjsody in Heat. y:: Then the curtain rose and ([uiet ])revailed. Amid rapturous settings I the chorines jierformed admirably. During the intermission, I discerned i: Winkler, vociferously selling dainties and Confessions of a French Chorine , y. by Dogon, price, two francs. g: The arrival of the second act brought on a burst of thunderous applause, £ when Zeider, the Eddie Cantor of France, stepped behind the footlights and y, delighted the audience with his inimitable antics and anecdotes. g The finale was featured by the internationally known adagio dancers. S j, Frankel, Goodman and Mme. Shellenberger. After the ]ierformance I decided to complete my stay in the metropolis by a visit to the Latin quarter, where both aristocracy and the underworld commingled. ' ' I ' pon reaching this favorite haunt of the criminal, my attention was f immediately drawn to a street fight lietween a band of A])aches led by Smith C and Spevak. and two nomads. Kleinman and Kamison, who disagreeing on y. their versions of natural jihilosoiihy, decided on this means for settling the 5 ;-- controversy. After the brawl was over. Boslefsky. a gendarme who had been witnessing the aflPair from a doorway, summoned up courage and dispersed ' the combatants. 5 ' Hitherto I had been successful in concealing my money from sharpers, f but on the morrow I was destined to dispose with a good share of it. Enroute I to Monte Carlo, via non-stop plane flight. I was approached by Dornan and f; Bing. who asked if I wanted a little diversion in the form of black jack. Com- J l l,ving with the request of two apparent business men, I ])layed. In two hours many of my Eaf lcs had sprouted vin is. Later it dawned upon me that I had l)eeii ictimized hy coiifideuce men.

Here I noticetl Miller and Trimble, two regular contributors, ])laying desjierately with Cobert, a wily croupier. Taking a ]K)sition at this exjiensive bit of furniture, I invested very tactfully at first, and being unsuccessful, ventured larger sums, anil in three hours I broke the bank! The crowd that had gathered immediately ])roclaimed nie a national hero. Having been well repaid for my ])ains I left the (iold Coast and emliarked for (ireece. Arriving in Athens I fount! the city in a turmoil. People were running about gesticulating wildly in a language strange to me. Finally I found someone who could enlighten me as to the cause of the disorder. From a native I learned that Steinberg, a twentieth Century Byron, had succeeded in swaying the i)ublic with his ])olitical doctrines and on that day he was leading a revolt against an intolerant government. A prolongation of my stay in this chaos might result in jiersonal injury, so I decided to vacate, pronto. Traveling northward into Russia, numerous incidents occurred which have little bearing on this narrative, therefore I will not mention them. However, one observation that I made is worth noting. In order to make connections to Moscow, it was necessary to change ])lanes at Odessa. This necessitated a wait of four hours. During that time I hired a limousine to exj)lore the surrounding country. Twelve miles out- side of town I stopped at a lumber camp, and there, unknown to him, I saw Weinstein chopping down giant fir trees furiously with a two-edged ax faster than l askin could snake them away with a hundred tractors. Exhilarated by this scene, I returned to the airport. Several days later I landed in loscow, where I remained several weeks. While there I visited Premier Plotkin, who had been responsible for the Soviet ' s rise to world recognition. In his cabinet were such distinguished statesmen as (iayman and Polakovich, Ministers of Agriculture and Foreign Relations, respectively. Taking leave of these gentlemen, I finished my tour by jjassing through northern Euroj)e. Eight months after setting out, I landed in New York, W ' here I was driven to my home, a tired but hajjpy man. Moral — It ' s better to be farmers after all.

However, these achievements grow dim with the records and an- incidental to the cliaracter develoi ment derived during the ])rocess of training for these activities. The two-fold pvn ' ])ose of |)laying the game in a hard, rugged way and still being a gentleman and good sport is a difficult objective to inculcate in a group of young men, esjjecially since it is vitall. - important to leave a lasting favoral)le imj)ression about themselves and the ■school with the public and visiting ()p])onents. It is es|)ecially gratifying at this time to again write in Farm School History that this difficult standard has been maintained. I feel most of the credit is due to this group of young men who are leaving their school. Although they have been under a system of severe training and disci])line. two very imjjortant characteristics ex])lain their success. These are namely, faith and intelligence. No individual could achieve in any under- taking without an abundance of faith in his institution and the principles which he is asked to re])resent. Yet intelligence is a requisite to go along with the (juality of faith, for a sense of proj)ortion is necessary. A mere blind faith in everything is not sufficient, but the j)roper balancing of faith antl intelligence cannot be beaten. This group of young men I am glad to say were accessible to all advice and teachings and the results followed as a matter of consecpience. Philip Kleinman, the captain of the three sport teams, was versatile in all activities. Sam Goldfarb, Fred Rohrbaugh, Harry Dornan, and Thomas Cancelmo, will leave huge gajjs in our football line which ranked with the strongest. George Grisdale served as an end on the football team for three years and will be greatly missed as will his activities on the baseball squad. Ronald Keiser, who played in the backfield of one of the best football teams we ever had, will also leave behind pleasant memories. The services of Kalman Liskowitz and Morris ' inkler in helj)ing to put the liaseball team through an undefeated season will not be forgotten. The efforts and sj)irit of Zeider, Frankel, Sezov, Miller, Dogon and J. (Joodman as doormats for the football team are greatly appreciated, as well as the services of J. Kamison to the baseball squad. It is my hope that these outgoing men will not expect success on the basis of their past achievements while at school. There is plenty of hard work ahead and the world will not pave the path for a man on past accomplish- ments. In all jiroblems are struggles which are inevitable in the career of every individual. I hope that they remember that it is not a question of DYING GAMELY, BUT RATHER FIGHTIMi HARD TO LIVE. Samuel B. Samueus. m 5 ?S ?

Aside from the wonderful .scoring results obtained, the all-around characteristics as exhibited by these teams, have left an indel- ible impression upon the minds and the hearts of all who witnessed their endeavors. Their deeds will long be remembered in the annals of N. F. S. as teams who always jdayed the game hard and s(|uare. Fighting Hearts Can ' t Be Beat. 1928 Although only one classmate, (leorge (Jrisdale, earned his letter in our first year, we had a sufficient number on the squad to demonstrate that 31 would make its jiresence felt when given the oj)portimity. Under the leader- ship of C ' a])tain Hoguet, our opposition was smothered under top-heavy scores, until we met Yilliamson Trade School. The latter team marred an otherwise perfect season by nosing out our blood-hounds, 6-0. Another tough nut for us to crack was the Rider College eleven. For three quarters, we kej)t the lead, by virtue of having scored a touchdown, but finally ' Tlap F rank, their noted star, scored a touchdown and managed to tie it uj) again before the whistle blew. The feature of the season was the remarkable defensive ability displayed by the team. Chief among these capable performers was ' Whitey Gysling. Whitey was imanimously elected captain for the following seaso n. 1929 The liH9 ensemble finally culminated Coach Samuels ' life-long ambi- tion. After playing through ten bitterly contested battles, the team aided and abetted by Kleinman, (iol farb, Rohrbaugh Grisdale, Dornan and Cancelmo of the 31 class, emerged victorious in each, and amassed the stupendous total of 3 ' -23 points as well. The power of this team was tremendous. All opponents were swept aside like so much brush-wood in their march to Ten Straight , and Champions of the Prep School ranks of Pennsylvania. Addi- tional satisfaction was obtained in roundly trouncing Williamson Trade School and thus avenging last year ' s defeat at their hands. For his outstanding feats on the gridiron, Phil Kleinman, earned the cap- taincy; thus making it two straight captaincies for him. -: 49 - Jt-J.-ras-MK -fi-jr. m- 1 ■. ■j ■ .

Therefore, he schednlefl the most (litlicult teams i)rocurable. His confidence was not mi.sjjhiced. for the team came throufih wonderfully. . lthouf;h we lost one game to McKen ie l ' re[) and tied another with Ven()nah M. A., the conditions under which these games were played indicated enough to prove that this team, captained l)y the Xon])areir Phil Kleinman was fully up to the standards of the wonder teams preceding them. Thus came to a close, the most outstanding era of football sujjremacy in the history of oiu- . lma Mater. BASEBALL (C W .VSEBALL was fast coming into its own again as a popular sport in j Farm School. Although we did not fare so well as we would have liked to in our Freshman year, the spirit was not dampened one iota; rather it tended to soar to higher levels. By our Senior year it had reached its highest peak when we turned out an imdefeated baseball team to take its ])lace alongside the super-football team, that preceded them. Ye are j roud to say that our class largely contriljvited to that highly organized aggregation. ■▼■ 1928 Sad to say we could not do much to helj) the team along, having only one rejiresentative, P. Kleinman in the line-up. However, we put up the fight and aggressiveness so characteristic of Farm School ' s teams, and under the able generalship of Captain Stuhlman we managed to win five games of the 9 ])Iayed. ' ▼ ' 1929 AVith two more members of the 81 banner atldetl to the roster. Farm School turned out an A-1 team. This outfit, with Broadbent as its skipper, coasted alo ng admirably through the season, emerging victorious in 6 of its 9 encounters. The three we did lose, were to worthy ojjj onents. The lack of relief pitchers was sorely felt in these games. However, the team showed ])lenty of latent power which revealed itself the following season. The heavy hitting and all-around playing of Phil Kleinman won for him the leadership of the nine in his Senior year. ' W 1930 The year of years! The National Farm School baseball team finally reached its goal after seven bitterly fought contests. Ca])tain Kleinman, with the able helj) of Liskowitz, Grisdale. and Winkler, certainly deserve credit for their remarkable playing. Congratulations are tendered the other members who made this feat possible. Aluch praise is due Coach Samuels whose faithful training and guidance produced this unbeaten ensemble. ■  S ill -Urt: =1.51 t=- mi mi M w {= BASKETBALL F .yliOM ;iii oliscurc s|)()rt just :i few _ i ' ars ;if;(). l):i.skrt hall. un l T tlic Ml liitclafic and ciicoiira ' ciiit ' iit of our coach, S. ]i.

Here again, as he has so often done in the past. Coach Samuels built up a combination which not only equalled last year ' s but improved ujjon it. Again as last year, only one set-to was lost, this time to the powerful P. ] [. C. aggregation, by the slim margin of one goal. In fact, extra periods were required before our fighting ensemble were finally subdued. Phil Kleinman was a great factor in the remarkable success ot the team and as was to be expected, he earned the cajjtaincy for 1931. -▼■ 1931 With Captain Kleinman, Elson, Caplan, and Shifman on hand as a nucleus, the prospects of a successful season looked exceedingly bright. The acfjuisition of VanDernoot and Feinberg from the Freshman class rounded out what ])roved to tie a wonderful team. The highlights of the year were the away games with X. J. I. D. and Camden Commercial College. In each instance our cagers came through in the last few minutes of j lay to snatch apparently lost games out of the fire. Throughout the season this group starred consistently and finally realized another long-sought ambition, namely, — an undefeated basketball season. Without ([uestion this team is the best ever to represent X. F. S. on the court. Thus within a year. Farm School has produced unbeaten combinations in all varsity sports. There ' s a mark for all future teams to shoot at! A 5;i ¥ ' s• 1;?Vls• ' . ' t ? i '  ? ' Je il tf l?« ft tf- i!C=Vrt i t -.i rts V -I vli i . r xTj 1?

Alumni: Now that you have completed your agricultural course at the National Farm School, we trust that all of you will carry on in your particular fiekl of endeavor and most of all that you will stick faithfully to your work no matter how difficult you nuiy find it. Remember, he that shall endureth, shall j)ros])er. Should you happen to reside in this district we shall ])e ])leased to wel- come you into our organization. The best of luck for yotu- future success. Carl H. Kahn. ' S - 4 m !=■ m m Ml Presentation of The Hoe (5 y R. President: | f Every j)rofession has some characteristic tool to represent it concisely in a pictnre or model. The apothecary has his mortar and pestle, the mason his trowel, the carpenter his square, the chemist his retort, the smith his anvil, and the draughtsman his divitlers. Even the pawn- broker glories in the coat of arms of the once glorious house of the Medicis. We follow a less pretentious calling than any of these, and the visible symbol of it is correspondingly simpler. It is only this little hoe, intrinsically nothing. But to us it is transfigured by the meanin g, the intense significance, with which this formality is fraught. To us this little hoe repre- sents a hundred other hoes whose blades we have kept shining by use and whose handles we have kept oily with sweat. It represents all the other imjilements of our craft, the plow, the harrow, the seeder, the mower, and all that these imply, — crops, animals, birds, trees, the beautiful countryside, friends, everything that has come to have a sjiecial meaning for us after these three years. This hoe, which has been in m ' keei ing for a year, has been handed down from class to class since this school began. The tradition of it will last as long as the school itself. I present it to you, Mr. President, in the hope that in your hands it will ac(|uire an even keener edge and a smoother handle than it ever has had before.

I ' nder the reniarkahle guidance of Lieutenant Jose])h Frankel, it has arisen to nnexjiected heights in |)laying classical nuisic. A banquet was given during February and many i)romineut musicians were among the invited guests. During the ])ast year many concerts were given in l ' hila(lel])hia and the vicinity. The band was l)ehind the football team and showed its real value in adding color to games and giving s])irit to ])layers as shown in the Wenonah and Williamson contests. The U);}! class takes with them in their de])artm ' e from the school some of the most valuable men of the band, chief among them oiu ' highly ca])able leatler, Kalman Liskowitz, a leader in every sense of the word, devoted to his work and lias the utmost resi)ect of the members.

The negative led at the outcome. A talk on Depression was delivered by Dogon in his inimitable style. Zuckerman acquainted us with the Canadian Liquor System, as it exists today. Jack Goodman presented a talk on Why We Misbehave and Marcus Goldman expounded on the subject of Degeneration . The work the society has done has proved highly instructive to the mem- bers as a whole.

Many jjrominent fruit growers delivered ])ractical speeches on horticultural topics, also sj eakers from Agri- cultural College were with us. Much benefit was derived from movie films which were shown on alternate meetings. Trips to various places of interest were unusually successful. Experiments on sjirayed and imsjirayed fruit trees was one of the clubs features for the year.

Ladies i: Jf E and (ifutleinen and Fellow Students: gl , We, the class of 19, ' )1, are more than ha])])y to have you as our guests IISl today, to join us in our celebration of this j)roud event. Ours is the thirty- j fourth class to graduate from the National P irni School. We feel justified in 2jl saying that this class has not spent three years in vain. S ' j We believe with our great statesman. Benjamin Franklin, who was also S::;; something of a farmer himself, that Farming is the most honorable of pro- : fessions ; the goal set for our class then, is to become honorable farmers. S l ; We have been toilers of the field, and the ties that bind us to Mother Earth, we hope, will not be easily severed. Our contact, our bands of attach- jg j nient to her, have been too strong for any breach. Ss j We are entering our profession at a time which for two pressing reasons puts us on our mettle. The first of these, the present hard times, it is unneces- y} ' sary to enlarge on here. We are not going to be deterred by that. The other is Z the application every day of new inventions to farm work and farm life. There is no other field. Thomas Edison says, in which there is more possibility for gst improvement by scientific advance, especially through new machinery, than in sW i agriculture. This fact is at once an ins])iration and a challenge, and we hope to M do our part in this never-ceasing progress toward better things. g The School here with its curriculum has given us a broad education. This SilS consists not merely in a knowledge of agriculture in its countless phases, but in something not so immediately appreciable which Shakespeare has admirably agag expressed for us; ' And this our life, exempt from jjublic haunt; Finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks. Sermons in stones and good in everything. ' This we consider a broad education for which we all feel indebted to the National J arm School. Jack Goodman. 4 TO 1=- VALEDICTORY (Tl l ' U. CHAIRISIAX; President Allinaii and .McihIxts of llic Board: ! Dean (loodlinj, ' and Mend)er,s of the Faculty; Dear l ' ' riends and ' Fellow students: Today marks the culmination of three years of broad exjjerience jjained at the National Farm School. Our life here has been just what we have made it. I ' here were days when our fjlasses were rosy and days when our glasses were blue but they all had their ])laces in our lives. Were we to sum up the whole situation now, we could truthfully say that those three years formed an ejjocli in our lives, not to be forgotten. We want to pay due tribute to our Faculty. We realize tliat theirs was not an easy task. They have given unstintedly and jiatiently of their time and of their knowledge to the end that we might face the world as fully e(|ui])ped as ])ossible. To some extent each member of the Faculty has left an imprint of himself in us. We consider that imjjrint as one of value and are therefore grateful to each member individually. At times we know that Faculty and students had their trials and tribulations, nevertheless we can look back upon three years of labor, of pleasure, of jjrofit. But for us this is by no means the termination. It is but the commence- ment. From a class of approximately eighty students, forty-five of us are about to enter the various branches of Agriculture in which we have specialized. Here too, the path will not be one of roses. There are still a great many things for us to learn. However, ac |uainted as we are with rural life, we know the conditions we will have to contend with. Also, at sometime or other during our stay we have realized the comjjetitive nature of life and have striven to bring out our most favorable ])oints to meet the critical attitude of the world. This has helped us to gain self-confidence, and given us a feeling of tolerance toward the shortcomings of others. Because of these things, we may be certain that as each man goes out, he will not easily be discouraged by obstacles. We cannot fully appreciate at this time all that the various authorities of the school have done for us. We have not been a real source of income to the school but rather an investment. However, as we are assembled here, we feel that we are now assets. First, the fact that we are about to graduate shows that we have finished a prescribed curriculum and are therefore worthy of graduation. Secondly, we feel that each of us has the determination to make good as he goes out. Thirdly, we shall thus reflect as a credit to the institution. To this we pledge oiu ' selves and shall in time prove that the efforts of the President and the Members of the Board, the Dean and members of the Faculty shall not have been in vain. C.

It takes specialized knowledge and training to sell modern farm equipment. An engineering type of mind is as necessary in this work as is good salesmanship. A combination of the two is the highest assurance of success o man can have. Tractors and tractor-driven machines are fast becoming com- modities, as modern farming is taking on factory-like speed and efFiciency. No longer is the market one of selectivity. Nearly every farmer is a prospect at one time or another for some kind of machine. To a man with your technical training, and with some selling ability, this field offers a wonderful opportunity. From all indica- tions, there is as much new business in sight for the next ten years as was booked in the past twenty. Those who are best prepared to intelligently seek it will reap the cream of the harvest. One good way to get going in this business is to get some sum- mer vacation employment with an established dealer. This way you can learn for yourself what the opportunities are in the busi- ness while you are getting the practical experience. J. I.
