A wide divergence of opinion on the subject of what the school should be and do is also to be noted in the views expressed by parents, pupils, and the public generally. From this confusion of ideas result a multitude of educational practices ranging all the way from the ultra-conservativism of the traditional school to the extreme type of Progressive School. All except the hopelessly hard minded Want progress, but what constitutes progress, in what direction and how far should it be carried, are questions which furnish never ending sources of argument. On one thing, however, we can all agree. The schools since, they fill in so much of the life span of all the people of this democracy, must give them some-- thing in their youth which will contribute largely to their future as free citizens in a free land. From the schools must go forth generation after generation of young men and women equipped to take on the responsibilities of citizenship. Along with knowledge they must have the ability to reason. Beyond familiar- ity with forms of government, they must have proper attitudes toward govern- ment. In addition to the ability to earn their own living, they must develop social consciousness. Rather than living unto themselves alone, they must understand cooperation and living for others. Instead of perverting liberty to license, they must clearly see that with every additional freedom which we enjoy, we must ac-- cept added responsibility, The need for external control by force of law and regu- lation must give way to intelligent self-control. They must be a people loyal, patriotic, unselfish, tolerant, intelligent, and de- voted to the ideal of more abundant life for all humanity. They must see situa- tions clearly and face issues squarely. They must be a fearless people-this gener- ation of young Americans--a race of super men and women if they are to strike off the shackles and bind up the wounds of mankind. The school can never contribute much to this way of living if it is content to stagger along in the ruts of tradition. It is foolish to believe that knowledge can be digested and fed to a pupil for eighteen years and leave him capable of learning for himself and living independently. It is absurd to expect one to become a reason- ing being, for whom all thinking has been done and all important decisions made until the very verge of maturity. The school must be recognized as a part of life, and in it situations must ex- ist, wherein pupils live freely, make decisions, account for themselves and accept responsibility for themselves and others, if those passing through it are ever to be- come capable, competent citizens. 5 5.5119 ,REAQOE U 5 lf, -Ye Front Row: Joseph Skubitz, Mrs. Howard Munz, Louise Palmer, Francis Andrews Second Row: W'esley Emhof, Oatley Xvells, Henry Convis, Ernest Holdridge, Eric Smullu Third Row: Bruce Harrington, Leon Eckert, Charles Greene EMPLOYEES LOUISE PALMER . .

SENIOR ANNUAL NINETEEN FORTY-TWO VALEDICTORY As I am about to graduate from high school this year, 1942, I have three per- spectives to view: the past, the present, the future. Formerly I have had all the pleasures and opportunities that could come to a child or young person in America. I have been educated in a beautiful school building, part of a central school system, and prepared to meet whatever may come after graduation. Now, as a graduate, I have all the opportunities that this great country can afford me. And, best of all, I have the right to make my own choice of what my next step will be because I live in America where all are free and equal. Immediately my mind flashes to the future. This will lay heavily upon the minds of graduates this year as the world we are going out into is engaged in the greatest conflict in its history. A short while ago I heard the throb of an airplane motor, and I went out to see if I could see its lights moving in the night sky. After I returned inside, it sud- denly dawned upon me what a fear this same sound must put into the hearts of thousands of young people my age in other parts of the world, this same sound that only aroused in me a mild curiosity. The graduates of 1942 must take a firm hold in the future and choose wisely their next steps. It is up to us, along with those before and those to come after us, to erase this fear from the hearts of many and in its place establish the peace and love of freedom we American young people have in America, the land of the free. -Margery Hull. SALUTATORY As the Graduation of 1942 is nearing, it is interesting to think of some of the advantages of modern education. Book learning is not the only form of education. A student mingles with the others, learning new ways of life, new pastimes and how to get along with other people. From the beginning of school and up through the grades, a person makes many friendships. Besides the academic subjects, the schools offer exta curricular activities in- cluding music, athletics, journalism, dramatics, photography, etc. There are bet- ter opportunities to make friends and to keep them through clubs. These clubs SENIOR ANNUAL NINETEEN FORTY-TWQ are organized for a purpose, and this common purpose teaches cooperation. Friendship means a great deal today because modern transportation has brought all the world to us as our neighbors. It is a necessary problem that we get along and cooperate with them. Today our world is in a state of war because of the lack of cooperation, but we are looking forward to peace in which cooperation will be more important than ever. Students are always being told the advantages that they are receiving by the educational program, but one does not realize it until he is about to graduate and then he does, -Hannah Muller. PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS As one looks back on the time when the present senior class was graduating from the eighth grade, he remembers how awkward, rather carelessly dressed, and bashful they appeared to be. They were undeveloped not only in body but in mind. After four short years these one tirme freshmen are now going on the stage as seniors. Now they are taller, less awkward, more at ease, and better groomed. Not only have they changed in appearance, and developed in body but their minds have been developed by the influence of their teachers, friends and parents. This shows how four years of high school develops people. Of course, as one has undergone this change he doesn't realize it until he looks over some pic- tures taken when he was a freshman Then he begins to realize this change. One hopes that as they go either to college or to work for four more years that they can see another change as great as that one during high school. -Helen Agnes Anderson. SENIOR ANNUAL NINETEEN FORTY-TWO SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Through the years of grade school new pupils kept joining the original sev- en of the present senior class, but the class approximated its present form in the eighth grade where its history really began. During that year the class became socially minded and had parties, truck and sleigh rides as the high school did. The only class to have a formal graduation, the exercises were in the form of a play, written by the late Clarence Quackenbush. Several members joined when they came to Edmeston Central after the cen- tralization of Edmeston High and several district schools. The pupils all thought they lived on easy street having to take only four subjects after having seven or eight subjects for the previous years. Their social functions ran in the same groove as usual with parties, truck and sleigh rides, The first two weeks of the sophomore year was a novel two weeks, the stu- dents thought, as it was spent in church while the new building had some finishing touches. After moving into the new building, the Sophomores decided to christen it with a very successful party. The only other social event was a weinie roast near the end of the school year. The junior year, making them upper classmen, seemed perfect. They were more socially minded than ever and had quite a few parties including a novel ice skating party on the rink that Mr. DuM0nt flooded out back of the school build- ing. More money minded, they had several tea dances after school and several bake sales on Saturdays. The really big event of the junior year was of course the Junior Prom for which Ernie Russ furnished the music. The auditorium was gayly decorated with streamers of red, white and blue. Miss Louise Palmer was crowned queen by Mr. George H. Purple.. The Prom was quite a success. The senior year was full of social events, starting off' with a party the first thing, The several parties held since have all been successful. The Senior Play The Tin Hero was also successful. Several square dances made quite a bit of money and the one bake sale was also profitable. This history emphasizes the social aspects of the class, yet all the members feel that the ties of friendship formed by these social functions will last through- out their lives. sENloR ANNUAL NINETEgEN FORTY-TWQ CLASS PROPHECY e Morrisville-Miss Helen Anderson is the newly elected dean of the College of Home Economics.

Starting out with a dollar a month quota, they surprised even themselves by col- lecting enough to buy a bond in just four months. Although they had twenty dollars in the treasury at the end of the year, the usual eighth grade trip was impossible and they decided to buy a second bond.

A majority of high school students graduate without choosing a vocation. They drift into the first job that comes along, About 8072 of those who express a vocational choice-girls pick nursing, teaching, stenography. The boys-aviation, engineering, law and medicine. About 621 of the gainfully employed are actually working in these professions. Many engineering colleges Hunk out as many as 4022 of their enrollees. Medical colleges as high as 30921. There are 25 different kinds of engineering. Most boys can only name four or five. There are 17,000 dif- ferent jobs in this country today. It is estimated that more than half of the work- crs in the country are in the wrong vocation. Each year many college scholarships go unused because young people do no.. know and do not apply for them. Therefore, the guidance program should have the following objectives: To build files of information on educational and occupational opportunities. To give each student an aptitude and interest test. To keep the subject of guidance before the student by discussions in home room weekly, grades 7 - 12, on occupational trends, job requirements, educational opportunities, etc. To instruct the Seniors on such topics as choosing a college, and how to apply for a job. To take trips to colleges and visit industries. To keep a personality picture of each student from the time he enters in the first grade until he leaves or graduates. This record would include test records, in- terests, hobbies, and results of personal interviews. To institute a counseling service for out of school youth. To follow up graduates and drop-outs. To survey the occupations of this area. To have the pupil interview people who are actually engaged in the job that interests the pupil. Just what is being done to attain these objectives? The program itself is iust getting under way. The students wrote for the information to fill the occupation- al file. Every two weeks the county director of guidance visits the school to give group talks to the students, and individual counsel to the Seniors and students ex- pecting to leave school, Each week the county guidance office sends out a news let- ter for use in the home room. This news letter has such features as Occupational Trends and Job of the Week. Each one is concluded by a Job Quiz which brings up pertinent questions concerning occupations. The work in the school is headed bv a guidance committee consisting of the principal and three classroom teachers. Every home room teacher from grades 1 - 12 was asked to start a personal record file for each pupil. Teachers in the spe- cial fields are asked to discuss with their students the various occupations that na- turally grow out of their subjects. For this purpose each teacher is given a list of the occupations prepared by the county office. These lists are for the Ag, Home Ec., Soc. Studies, Math., Science, Art, English. Music and Physical Education. That is what has been done. The remaining objectives are yet to be attained. We feel that not only will this program help the student choose an occupation in which he will be happy and successful, but that the teacher in compiling a case history of the student, will become better able to understand the student and thus be better able to guide, counsel and teach the student. -Alonzo D'uMont.

Discovering his mother has exaggerated his mention of saving a girl from drowning, he is confronted with a swimming contest, and he doesn't know how to swim. In the six weeks he has to prepare, his public demands all his time until he flies to New York to learn. Returning at the critical moment, he saves the day and wins the girl by defeating a champion. Margery Hull was outstanding in her part of the exaggerating, flighty, dull- witted mother. Others in the cast included Adrian Cole as the hero, Betty Talbot as his sister, Beatrice Fuller, his fiancee, Daniel Zimmerman as the hero's sister's fiance, and Helen Anderson, Hannah Muller, Julia Houk, Wilma Hume, Hubert Mayne, Evelyn Mattison and Sam Hill.

Although the team started with only four veterans, they finished second in the league.
