CONN., JUNE 1922 NO. 6 PRESIDENT’S ADDRESS By Howard W. Gourlie Parents and Friends: We welcome you. The children of yes- terday, the men and women of tomorrow, we have completed one stage of Life’s journey. The Class of ’22 is here tonight, about to begin the exercises which will sever its connection with its school. While such a time is well fitted for serious thought and reflec- tion, those moods are more appropriate to the solitude of one’s chamber. So let us cast dull care away, if just for tonight, when we raise the curtain of the past and push aside the veil of the future, for all the world to see. Four years of the intimacy of school life serve well to display a character to his schoolmates and tonight each is classified and labeled for your benefit. Bear with us, if any of them seem too ridiculous or too pitiable, for tonight relaxation has set in, and mirth holds sway. Individually and collectively, we extend to you our warmest welcome. CLASS HISTORY By Florence Brainard The class of 1922 began its journey through the “Castle of Knowledge” in Sept. 1918. Before we appeared at the entrance to this wonderful castle we heard many rumors of the great treasure stories hidden within the castle’s ivy-covered walls: treas- ure which would be the rich reward for those who diligently sought after it. Many of the treasures were said to be kept by mysterious characters, by some called Courage, Ambition, Perseverance, Co- THE ENFIELD ECHO 13 operation, and Strength of Character. To carry on our journey successfully all of these characters had to be sought and brought to our aid to render their individual services. There were also characters more easy to become acquainted with, by some called Pleasure, Inattention, Failure, Idleness, who would lead one from the steep and rocky path of knowledge when one least expected them. Nevertheless, being in all nearly one hundred members strong we prepared to undertake the journey, having in our posses- sion the required badges of service secured from the numerous small castles through which our various members had traveled. On this morning we appeared before the gates and presented our badges, and were permitted to enter. The chief official of the castle whispered to us the password, “All goes if courage goes,” and we realized that to complete our journey of the castle we must be courageous. Before the entrance to the first room we met our guide, Mr. Bowman, with his assistants, Miss Storrs, Miss Barton, Miss Wright, Miss Mitchell, and Miss Turner. As we entered we were surprised to see that what lay before us was entirely new to us; the everyday world we had been living in was in the past forever. The small room into which we were ushered was lighted by a soft green light which seemed to sooth our excited spirits in search of the unknown, and we at once got down to work. When we entered this small, green room and left the outside world we could not entirely forget the great war in which our country was engaged. Therefore we strove eagerly to make our quota of War Savings Stamps and Liberty Bonds, purchased the highest of any in the other rooms of the castle, and there was great rejoicing when we received word that the war was over. When our rejoicings were brought under control by our guides we learned that one of our members had been taken from us. Although our class was so large that we did not as yet know every member intimately, the loss of our absent member was deeply felt by all. When intermission gave us a chance to rest and to talk over the wonderful experiences we had and the treasures which some had found in the small green room we were surprised to see how many beautiful emeralds had been collected. The intermission seemed very short, and we found that we were about to explore another room with a number of new guides. Mr. Bowman’s chief assistant was the new principal, Mr. Bryant, and Mr. Farrar was introduced as the instructor of the boys in athletics, and Miss Potter as the one who was to instruct us in the mysteries of the French language. This second room was larger than the first. We worked under red lights most of the time, for there were so many secluded pas- sageways, both on the main floor and in the balconies above that red guiding lights were needed at various points. We had indeed entered a dangerous room. 14 THE ENFIELD ECHO At this time we held a class meeting and elected officers for the rest of our journey of exploration: president—Howard Gourlie, vice-president—Anna Willson, secretary—Alice Hamel, treasurer— Ernest Dewsbury. Many mysteries besides the French language were unfolded before our eyes by our guides, some being the stories of the ancient peoples of the earth, and even algebra, which to this day still remains a mystery to many of us. Miss Potter also initiated a number of us into dramatics, our first attempt at this being “Pina- fore.” Many found stones of dull colors and of rough shapes, which they thought of little value but which, when polished by the advice of our guides, were found to become brilliant red rubies. We also came upon an extraordinary find, a nugget of gold which we pol- ished and cut into a pin, having as the central figure a design of the lamp of knowledge. This model which we chose for our class pins and rings is to be the standard for all succeeding classes. The second intermission seemed even shorter than the first, and we waited anxiously for the guide to appear who would dis- close to us the hidden entrance to the third room. We were not kept waiting long for a door was suddenly opened before us re- vealing a large room, and our guide, Mr. Parkman, pressed the switches which flooded the many deep recesses of the great room with a blue light. The whole atmosphere of this room was one of reserve and dignity. In our journey through the castle so far we had become ac- quainted with many of the notable characters who kept the treas- ure. Some of them became our true and steadfast friends. Some of our number, however, spent too much time in the companion- ship of such characters as Pleasure and Failure and were lured from the path of knowledge. When assembled together preparatory to entering the third room we found that our total number had greatly decreased. By this time we were thoroughly acquainted with our fellow classmates and friendship had done much to help us by making us one great class working in unison. At this time we were called together by our president to choose our class colors. Red and white were decided upon and we displayed them by wearing arm bands and caps at the great athletic meet held soon afterwards. Our treasurer left us at this time to attend another castle, and we elected James Hayden to take his place. Many of our classmates found that some of the more reckless characters to be met with during our journey, of whom Pleasure was a great favorite, could be of great help to us if not depended upon to too great an extent. By gaining their confidence and guid- ance we were persuaded first into giving a Glee Club Concert, then to taking leading parts in “Captain Kidd Jr.” and finally to the great affair of the Junior Dance. So many important events took place about this time that we were forced to stop and rest. Our third THE ENFIELD ECHO 15 intermission passed even more rapidly than the previous intermis- sions. A great, dazzling white light flooded the room before us dis- closing hundreds of treasures of knowledge. Many found the en- trance to the laboratory and there proved to themselves many won- derful truths and performed many experiments. Others were instructed in regard to the government of our great country, while a great number took instruction to help them in the walks of busi- ness when they should leave this wonderful castle and enter the business world. (Continued on Wage 46) PROPHECY By Timothy Sullivan, Roy Landry, Mildred Horton, Anna Willson. Ted—Miss Horton, please take this editorial I will dictate to you. Friday, Enfield celebrates the tenth anniversary of the adop- tion of the Representative form of town government. It should be with a feeling of pride that the citizens of Enfield gaze at the work which has been accomplished. Our business section, with Main Street straightened, is one of the finest in the state. Also, the town itself is lighted by a real white way system. With the finances in good condition and the debt decreasing rapidly, Enfield, with her 35,000 population, has just cause to feel proud. We have progressed but have not yet attained the greatest height, for more work lies before us. With the Connecticut River navigable in our section, great accomplishments are possible. Looking back to our accomplishments for inspirations, we resolutely set our faces towards the heights of the success which Enfield will attain in the near future. That finished the editorials. Will you please read those news items I dictated before? Mildred—Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Jones of Enfield Street—City— have received a cablegram from their daughter, the Countess of Edinborough—the former Jean E. Jones—saying that she will arrive in New York next week for a brief visit. Some time ago she was called to England on business and shortly afterward, it was heard that she had married the Count of Edinborough. Mr. Francis Niemiec of this city will leave for the west soon to assist Miss Evelyn Chillson in running her famous cattle farm. She is known throughout the west as “The Cattle Queen.” Mr. Norton Hunter, the French professor at Enfield High School, has recently been appointed official interpreter at a con- 16 THE ENFIELD ECHO ference of World Powers to continue the Disarmament program begun in 1922. Miss Dorothy Kellogg has been appointed supervisor of Do- mestic Science in Enfield High School. She has won the title of “The Famous Mixer” and has a wonderful crust. Mae Desso, who went to Alaska as a teacher, has changed her profession and is now writing a book on “Elevating the Eskimos.” (Anna enters, very excitedly) Anna—Just the headlines we need! Big Fire! Ferguson’s Gum Factory Burns to Ground! Ted—Burned? How in Sam Hill did that happen? Anna—Night Watchman, Carrol Gibney falls asleep on the job. Cause unknown. Gibney, overcome by smoke, is rushed to the hos- pital where Dr. Gertrude St. George applies first aid. Dr. St. George says his condition is not serious. Ted—That’s too bad for Gibney but fine for us. Did you get that Miss Horton? Mildred—0. K.! (Anna looks the fire notes over) Anna—Oh! By the way here’s some more news about some of our old classmates. Miss Grace Bromage, our clever new chief of police, has recently added two new members to the police force, Winfield Hawkes and Frances Crombie. Hawkes and Crombie proved their alertness and ability as policemen the other day when they trapped the thief who broke into William Thompson’s electrical shop and rescued Mr. Thompson’s latest invention, namely, the “safety first fan” for the easy blusher.

Frank Mercik, an eminent young business man of this city, has gained considerable notoriety recently because of an unfor- tunate accident he had when his small rowboat capsized while tak- ing Mary “Rowin’,” who is and has been his stenographer for past few years, across to the island where Eleanor Chillson tells fortunes at her gypsy camp. 18 THE ENFIELD ECHO (Landry enters) Landry—Good News!

FOR SALE 12-room house—all modern—$1,000 down for a quick sale. Inquire of Herbert Clark. (Landry Exits) Anna—Well, what’s he selling his house for? I thought he’d just built it. Mildred—Why haven’t you heard about Clark? He sent a letter to the “Lonely Hearts” Column in the Boston Advertiser and immediately he was overwhelmed with replies of young ladies ap- plying. The one letter which he liked best was from a young widow. Clark made arrangements to meet her at the train and much to his surprise, who should he find, upon arriving at the set place, but his old friend and classmate, Grace Thornes! Anna—And so the two are leaving town to escape the rejected ones and to be happily married? Mildred—Exactly! Anna—My how romantic! And Clark’s not the only one who’s getting into matrimony. Edith Chestnut was married last week and is spending her honeymoon down south. When she returns she expects to help her husband run his “peanut” and “chestnut” stand. THE ENFIELD ECHO 19 (Landry enters) Landry—Gee! I just got stuck for a dollar down on the corner —who do you think I saw ? Frank Combs! Ted—You don’t mean it. What’s he doing for a living now? Landry—Listen to this! “A Drink for Every Purpose.” Whatever may ail you, I can cure you by my latest discoveries. LIGHTNING COMBS! Anna—And here’s an addition to that. Madame Curtis, successor to Madame Curie, co-discoverer of ra- dium, has just arrived from France. Madame Curtis being a native of Enfield has consented to come here and demonstrate her won- derful discovery, namely, that by applying radium to the head, dull minds of small children may immediately become bright. She felt that her native town would furnish many subjects for ex- periment. Ted—Yes and really—Great Guns! We ’most forgot the Sporting Page! Anna—I have just the stuff here! (Hands paper to Ted and he reads) Ted—(Reading)—Ethel Lavigne, a former resident of this city, was given a hearty welcome yesterday while she was passing on her cross country hike. Ethel says she has been hiking on and off for five years and has won several medals. Helen Sulik has organized a track team for Enfield’s athletic women. They are becoming quite famous and Helen is especially noted for unsurpassed speed in running. Anson Corbin, more commonly known as “The Cue Pusher” has recently won the title for pool shooting from Philip Connor, “Ca- sino King.” Martha Graham, the champion tennis player of the United States, has arrived in France for the greatest event of the tennis season. She will meet the champions from other countries and compete for the title. (Landry looks over his notes) Landry—I’m sorry, but here are two more ads—can you squeeze these in somewhere? Ted—What are they? Landry— (Reading) — HAIR DRESSING 1050 Main St. Misses Eleanor Moody Edith Miller. Order your copy of the New York Parisien Vogue now!

There are some articles we’ve forgotten, (reading from the paper) Anna—Della Leroux has become a great woman suffrage leader. She is now touring the continent making stirring political speeches. Marion Wing, the greatest woman flyer in the country, is going to make her initial flight around the world soon. Florence Brainard, who has become quite an accomplished singer, gave a very enjoyable concert last night in the Auditorium. She sang her latest song, “Jimmie, I Love You,” of her own compo- sition. This caused each Jimmie in the audience to wonder whether he was the lucky one. Ted—Well, it’s most closing time. Anna—Yes and I’ve got to go see Beulah’s latest hit at Hart- ford. All—Beulah’s hit? Anna—Yes! Haven’t you heard about Beulah? She is leading lady in Ziegfield’s latest musical comedy “Boo-La-Boo” and it’s at Parson’s tonight. Beulah has made some hit!! All—Well, who would ever have thought that of Beulah! Anna—Yes! And she has become the quintessence of the superb appeal to the eye with Ziegfield. Oh! And I’ve an idea. Though I have my ticket I think we might get three more tickets somewhere. What do you say if we all ride down to Hartford, get a nice dinner, then go to see Beulah! All—Great! Let’s Go!! (All exit) The Senior Class as it Appeared Twelve Years A go THE ENFIELD ECHO 21 CLASS Part 1—By Evelyn Chillson As this class of brilliant seniors in this year of ’22 Leaves the well-beloved halls of En- field High We’ve been assigned the duty and we’ll tell it to you true To list the faults and failings as they pro by. These jingles are too poor we know for such a wondrous class But as we did the best we could, we hope you’ll let them pass. First in line of our fine class Stands Olive A., the wise, She’s smart as well as full of fun And oh—can’t she make eyes! Now Fannie Bent’s a quiet lass In school she seems so mild. But they say outside of here That she is almost “wild.” Florence Brainard too is smart. She always looks “just-so” And though she never hurries She’s not so very slow. Why Grace, my dear, what’s this I hear? There are rumors going round That you and Flanders, like a goose and a gander Watched the moon go down! With a scornful look of her big dark eyes The high-school boys, she spurns They all have heart-burn after that For Edna surely “Burns”. “Peanut” is a little vamp; She likes the men quite tall, For more than once she has been seen Vamping Crombie in the hall! She longs to be an Indian, Looks somewhat like one too, Has long black hair and sparkling eyes That look you through and through Always pleasant with one and all She’s never lost her head. Eleanor Chillson is her name, But we call her just “Ted”. Herbert Clark is much too quiet; jingle: He scarcely makes a sound. I wonder if he acts that way All the whole day round? There’s a fellow in this class Who can bluff, bluff, bluff, “What’s the use of studying When you know enough, ’nough, ’nough?” He’ll have that reputation No matter where he roams He’s the shining light of Somers town, Who else but Franklin Combs? Phil Connor and his charming looks Deserve our special mention, For he and his Oakland car Pay the girls a lot of attention. They think that Corbin’s quiet They call him “Angel-child”. But out in a place called Hazardville They say he’s not so mild. Creelman’s rather quiet We don’t know much about him, But when outside of school, they say He has more pep and vim. Crombie’s very tall and strong, Can easily do his part, And I’ll tell the world, it’ll take some girl To melt his “icy” heart. Marjorie studies hard all day And probably half the night. To fuss in the Lab with chemical things Is always her chief delight. Not too large, not too small, Awfully jolly, liked by all. Her friendliness will win her fame Why yes! Mae Desso is her name. Miss Ellis in our class Is very far from least Since bright people live in Somers She’s our “Star of the East”. The commonest saying heard each day When we to French class come Is Miss Potter with the waste-basket Saying “Ferguson, your gum!” “Dodge” may be a dodger, But you can hear him in a crowd. He’ll never dodge the teachers, For he whispers right out loud! 22 THE ENFIELD ECHO Miss Glazier’s very pleasant With smiles she does abound, But when she drops her pen we hear Her always say “confound”. Gourlie’s very smart, very good at bluff, In fact he’s good at everything and that is quite enough; But as he is class president, he needs special mention And after he has curled his hair, the girls receive attention. I know a lassie, a pretty blue-eyed laSgje With hair that is the color of pure gold. She’s as smart as they make ’em, Miss Hamel is a peach, And we love her one and all a hun- dred-fold. Winfield Hawkes is a dapper lad City born and bred He always has an answer To everything that’s said. He’s very fond of telling Of the places he has been And we’d all be raising pop-corn If we’d but follow him! Hayden’s very talkative, He’s very seldom quiet. Through his amazing gift of speech He could easily raise a riot. But he always has the facts And his sound, good business sense Has helped us more than once Out of tangles rather dense. A quiet lass is Marg’ret She seldom says a word, But if she never talks Then how is she always “Hird”? Another quiet lass is Martha Never whispers, seldom talks, If you wish to get thin, watch her And like her take long, long walks. In this class there is a girlie Who dearly wishes that her hair was curly, And to make her dream come true just right Milly wears curlers every night. Norton does his lessons well Every single day When he’s called upon in class He answers without delay. Liberty’s a precocious lad He’s always good and never bad. In Latin they say he’s awfully bright, In French class too he’s out of sight, And behold his fame in history A toast to “Adams and Liberty.” Now I’ve done my share of this I think I will retire And let Liberty amuse you With some of his satire. Part 2—By James H. Liberty Now that was Evelyn Chillson, Not backward, as you see, About putting herself forward. How noisy she can be! Now little girls should ere be seen, Not heard says our Miss Gay, But Evelyn believes the opposite. And grows noisier every day. Of cereals there are many Of good ones there are few. If you ever wish for cornflakes Try “Kellog’s”; they’ll surely do. Roy Landry is a precious boy; Perfect speech to him’s a joy, My, he’s smart and nice to all, But terribly bashful at a ball. Now Ethel Lavigne So calm and serene, Is never heard, Though often seen. I have decided Della Leroux To give some good advice to you, For you don’t seem to know it's a crime, To have three or four beaux at one time. A little girl with a telephone Is Annastacia Libby. And every night from eight till nine The line is awfully busy. Oh, Flora Mason, we all know, That it’s only in school your voice is low. For we have often heard you shriek When prancing down our great main street. THE ENFIELD ECHO 23 In this class there is a pest Who never gives the girls a rest, But never mind, Arthur Meginn, They all adore your jolly grin. Here’s a tip to you, Frank Mercik, If you wish to succeed, Books will be of no avail If you don’t learn to speed. Edith Miller is so quiet You’d think she was asleep, But don’t forget that old, old saw Still waters ere run deep. Next comes “Bluebird” Niemic, A most flirtatious boy, To wink at girls in study time Is his consuming joy. And then comes brother Francis A quiet little lad, Who looks on little birdie’s tricks With mien severe and sad. Pascoe is a child quite young fin actions not in years). To act like a clown, is his de'ight And to wear ear-rings on his ears! Of girls, Jimmie’s awfully fond Especially—OLIVE MARIE. For on “Prospect Hill” in Warehouse Point, We find him frequently! When the bells are ringing midnight Ghosts and goblins are around, Retm-ning home from Flora’s house Charles Remington will be found. Now Mary Rowan’s so very quiet I almost let her pass, But surely we must all agree She’s the (angel?) of our class. Eleanor is verv modest; She hardly talks at all, But if you wish to see her lively, Just meet her in the hall. Gertrude is a prim lass Never had a beau; That’s what some folks tell us But I don’t know! Oh, Edna dear, you make me groan, To see you oft so prone, To drop your books and rush from home, Just because of “Bourque” alone. An attraction at the drug store, Smiles while you eat. The girls come by the score, Because “Stewie’s” smiles are sweet. As Helen Sullk sits there dreaming Like a person in a trance, I know that she’s just thinking Of our Senior Farewell Dance. Because her home’s not very far (The school’s right near her gate) We always wonder what it is, Makes Flo. Sullivan so late. Now here’s to our Teddy Sullivan An athlete of good cheer. Whenever he’s there to win, Enfield has naught to fear. Studious and smart is she She’s very hard to fuss. “Miss Thornes” is what the teachers say But we just call her “Gus”. Bill Thompson, you little unsophisti- cated child, You never used to break a rule, Nor even miss a day from school, But I hear you’re getting wild. Anna Willson’s the cutest little girl, She has a most winning way. And though she doesn’t like the boys, They all like her, they say. A maiden slim and very fair, WTith rosy cheeks and light brown hair, She can play as well as sing. Who else could it be but Marion Wing? For breaking rules so wilfully, For passing notes so skillfully, For looking at one so innocently, Helen Pawelcik is known. Jeanie is a farmer, she must get up at dawn, To drive the stubborn horsie in that’s eating Daddy’s corn; But the “DONKEY” like his mistress has a will that’s very strong And even Lizzie’s practiced coaxing doesn’t hurry him along. Perhaps these sound sarcastic, They were written merely in fun, In case you have been offended, Forgive us for what we have done. 24 THE ENFIELD ECHO CLASS STATISTICS By Alice Hamel and William Thompson Howard W.

For Twenty-two is leaving you. Our thoughts from thee, Old Enfield dear. 36 THE ENFIELD ECHO PRESENTATIONS By Harold Stewart and Jean Jones Olive Adams......................Rake Prospect Hill is “awful rough” Walking on it, “kind of tough” Smooth it off with this fine rake Both for yours and Jimmie’s sake. Fannie Bent .....................Cane For many years to come This cane may well be lent, But we’re sure ’twill be of use, When Fannie, dear, is Bent Florence Brainard Book on “How to Vamp” To Florence we are giving A book on “How to Vamp” There are none better than her, liv- ing She ought to be a “champ.” Grace Bromage..........Card with E’s Because her name is Bromage, She couldn’t get an “E,” But we give her this for contrast Just to see how queer ’twould be. Edna Burns A book on “Cuts and Burns” For mild occasions Edna’s equipped But, what if hot water were on her tipped ? So. in our list of foolish good turns. We’ll give her a “Book on cuts and Burns.” Edith Chestnut ................Stilts Oh, Peanut, we’ve been thinking, What’s good for one so small, But at last we got these stilts, That they may see you in the Hall. Evelyn Chillson..........Vanity case Since Evelyn has an envied com- plexion Which has gained for her wide af- fection, We’ll give to her this vanity case To help her preserve her youthful face. Eleanor Chillson ......Looking Glass If Eleanor will take this glass, And do what we would do, She’ll see before her own brown eyes. The class beauty of ’22. Herbert Clark............Butcher’s axe With Herb we’ll leave this butcher’s axe, For if you all must know the facts, Herb, at Watson’s is a clerk, And his task he musn’t shirk. Franklin Combs ...“Art of Bluffing” We give you this book on “How to Bluff,” For ‘though you fool most of them, We think that it is prettv tough, When you can’t make it work in “Chem.” Philip Connor ..............Bright tie Philip uses taste in ties , He must like the red one best. For he wears it to our dances In spite of fun and jest. Ansin Corbin.............A Dictaphone When in your office you sit and work, And long to be alone, Just send your pretty “stenog” away; And use this dictaphone. Orville Creelman...............Derrick A derrick is useful, as you all know, In raising things up, from way be- low, Now Creely’s marks are always the same, But this'll help lift ’em before a game. Francis Crombie ...............Dustpan Francis is the one we all admire, And wish his height we could ac- quire, Though a dustpan for a gift seems funny, You must admit, when he’s around, it’s Crombie (Crummy) Marjorie Curtis....................Oil Hour by hour, week by week, Marjorie’s shoes forever squeak, THE ENFIELD ECHO 37 A little oil will do them good, And make them sound just as they should. May Desso..........A little Green Ford A little green Ford we’re giving to you, So that in the future you’ll never be “blue.” If Harry fails to come ’round some night, Just look at this; you’ll feel all right. Beulah Ellis.................“Photoplay” For Beulah we have bought a “Pho- toplay,” She insists on reading them night and day, We all think she’s probably jealous ’Cause her name’s not Pickford, but Ellis. Thomas Ferguson..........A stick of gum Chewing gum was his delight, In school he stayed ’most every night, But since the end of school has come, We hope he’ll enjoy this stick of gum. Carroll Gibney..................Hair net For “Gib” we’ve got the finest yet. It’s in the form of a black hair net. You’ll all agree that Gib has bangs. For in his eyes his long hair hangs. Julia Glazier ...........Box of Force Julia’s voice is awful weak, Julia, too, is rather meek, This box of Force, if often served, Will prove to make her less re- served. Howard Gourlie...................Curlers If Howy didn’t have that wave, We think ’t’would be a pity, Both time and labor these will save, As well as a trip to the city. Martha Graham.......................Life Martha’s as slow as slow can be She never hurries, just watch and see. We want her to study this copy of Life And be ready to hustle in all future strife. Alice Hamel .................Bee Soap Alice with her hair so fair, Washes it with so much care, Says she uses good Bee Soap, She’ll appreciate this cake, we hope.

James Hayden ...................Floor When Jimmy starts orating, in words of eloquence, No matter what he tells you, he thrills his audience But when his time’s not limited he talks forevermore, Let’s give him one more chance— Haydn here’s the floor. Margaret Hird ..................Yeast cake Margaret is so very small, It’s a wonder that she’s seen at a’l, If this yeast cake she’ll digest, A normal girl she’ll be, I guess. Mildred Horton....................Ear Kings Milly has so many fads, It’s hard to make selection, But here’s another pair of rings, To add to her collection. Norton Hunter ....................Gun What would be better than a gun To give our Norton plenty of fun; For, of course, you all can see Norton will always a Hunter be. Jean E. Jones. .Domestic Science Book Jean’s a good sport, but is no cook, So, to make a success, she’ll need this book. She will find that life is not all fun, That fellows hate girls who can’t cook a bun.

Anna Libby................Curling iron To Anna, the daring girl, Who wears bangs and a spit curl, A curling iron we’ll donate So that to work she’ll not be late. James Liberty...................Indian clubs Lives of athletes all remind us, We can make ourselves so strong, And in practice, using Indian clubs Will do much to right the wrong. Floi a Mason ................Megaphone Even the smartest and best, Have troubles all their own, Flo can’t speak as loud as the rest, So we give her this megaphone.

For you will be classed “a dancer with style.” Charles Remington ................Ford We thought a Ford was best for you, It goes up hills—you’ll find, And even though it hold but two. We’re sure that you won’t mind. Edna Sloane ..................Pulmotor In classes Edna likes to speak But often her supply of wind is weak, A pulmotor ought to aid her, And take from her voice the waiver. THE ENFIELD ECHO 39 Harold Stewart ...............Mustache When Stewy had that mustache on He sure did make a hit, So now let’s give him another one, Just to doll him up a bit. Gertrude St. George............Glasses As a chairman Gerty’s quite skillful, And presides with a dignified air, She souelches our giggles and whis- pei-s, With a truly teacher-like stare, But lest her vision be dimmed In some future day, We give her these glasses To guide her on her way. Helen Sulik.................Dictionary When into business life you go, This dictionary will help you, so We hone that you will guard it well, And never again your words mis- spell. Florence Sullivan .......Alarm Clock Florence always has been late, It may be her—it may be fate, But an alarm clock ought to help her some, So that to work on time she can come. Timothy Sullivan................Rouge Teddy is a happy sort, In sports he’s ou'te a factor. But we thought this rouge would be of u«e, When Ted becomes an actor.

Combs As we, the class of ’22, meet on the eve of our departure from the ivy covered walls of old Enfield, our thoughts are decidedly confused. It is indeed with a tinge of regret that we leave behind the manv good times we have had in this school. But we must look to the future, not only our own but also that of our school. Under-classmen, we hesitate to turn over to you the fulfill- ment of the offices for which you at present seem so incompetent. We feel, however, that when we have pointed out some of your most conspicuous shortcomings and advised you as to your future development you will at length reach to the height of our per- fection. Freshmen: I address myself to you first not only because of your in- feriority, but also because of your impertinence. You must be more respectful to the upperclassmen, especially to the seniors. 40 THE ENFIELD ECHO Such duties as holding the door open, sharpening pencils and taking waste paper to the basket are ones which should always be assumed by such tiny little red heads as you have in your midst. Make less noise both in your class rooms and in the halls. Remember you belong to that class of people who should be seen and and not heard. How dare you have the audacity to disturb studious seniors by your whispering when you are privileged to sit in our lofty abode, Room 1 ? In conclusion, Freshmen, you are a lively bunch, with numerous talents and unlimited energy. Use your talents well and direct your energy and you will make a Banner Class. Sophomores: Oh, you of little wit and so much wind! Do you not know that only Seniors are allowed to indulge in the “Art of Bluffing?” Let me warn you fond Sophomores, even though you may continue in your practice during your Junior year, your art will be sadly de- molished if you are privileged to take Chemistry when Seniors. Refrain from writing in books which were made for other pur- poses, especially “The Morning Hour.” I am confident that your beautiful autographs will not enable your successors to sing more harmoniously. Sophomores, it is rumored that you pull together like two mules which are not mates. You must overcome this diffi- culty. Never let personal disagreements hinder the progress of your class. Adopt the slogan “The sacrifice of self for the good of the whole” and your class is bound to be a success. Sleepy Juniors: Wake up! Juniors you neither talk nor write. Are you storing up all your thoughts with the hope of being great philosophers in the days to come? You are living in a wide awake age. Are you not equal to its demands? Girls, what will you do next year without the senior girls? They have mothered you for three long years but now you must stand alone. My advice to you is to rely on the boys for a change. Girls, it is said that you do not like rainy weather. I can sympathize with you fully, it certainly is hard on bobbed hair. But remember it is almost as much of a strain for us to gaze upon such unsightly heads as it is for you to be the owners. Grow up, girls, and let your hair grow with you, so that next year you may be worthy of the name, Dignified Seniors. Boys you have many athletes in your midst, but thus far they are potentialities. You should have a good foot-ball team next year due to the training which you received in the form of blows from the departing members. Juniors, I am informed that miraculous as it may seem, you are strongly endowed with the power to speak in debating societies. It must be that so great is your awe for the Seniors that you are tongue-tied in their presence. Allow me to urge you, Juniors, to keep up your enthusiasm and your good work in debating and if it be possible establish Inter-School- THE ENFIELD ECHO 41 Debating, that custom which we who are leaving have worked so hard to obtain. Juniors, it is to you that we assign the solemn duty of fulfilling the offices left vacant by our dcparture. Wake up and strive to fulfill them to the best of your ability. Underclassmen: We have indeed made your fauits seem nu- merous, but it is only by pointing them out that we can ever expect you to correct them. You have heard my advice to you, take it or leave it as you will, but above all strive to live up to the standards of those who have gone before you so that the glory and honor of old Enfield may be upheld. RESPONSE FOR UNDERCLASSMEN By Frank Spellman, ’23 There is an old saying that in order to train a dog, the man must have more brains than the dog. If this maxim applies to people and I see no reason why it should not, I fail to see what license the seniors have to give advice to the underclassmen. The senior class certainly possesses a great deal of humor when it modestly admits that, if we follow their advice we will, at length reach the height of their perfection. I considered the criticism directed toward the Freshmen un- called for. They may have been disrespectful in some instances but we must be mindful of their age. We must not heed their misdeeds and follies because of their youth and inexperience. When the honorable gentleman mentioned studious seniors, I didn’t un- derstand him. I decided that it must be some recently discovered insect, but inquired of Miss Gay and this supposition was shat- tered. Miss Gay, who has had much experience with the seniors the past year, says that although there have been vague rumors of such an insect existing, it has not yet been discovered. There- fore, Freshmen, as far as disturbing studious seniors, you have done no wrong. I agree with the preceding speaker, that you are a lively bunch. Next year, you should be the most worthy class in the school with the exception of course, of the Junior Class. Sophomores: You have indeed fallen into evil ways if you practice the art of bluffing. I hesitate, however, to believe that it is a deep-rooted habit. If it has become so, take heed of the warning of one who speaks from experience. The most libellous criticism has been made of the Juniors. That we do not talk as much as seniors is no sign that we are slow. In fact, it is much to our credit that we don’t talk so much. It is absurd to question the ability of the Junior girls to get along 42 THE ENFIELD ECHO without the Senior girls. You never saw such a wide awake, snappy but sensible group of girls. They are all that anybody could wish for. As a matter of fact, I notice that some seniors like the Junior girls better than the Seniors. If the Junior athletes are mostly potentialities, what are the Senior athletes? I ask this question because the Juniors hold the championship in football, basketball and baseball. It would certainly tax Solomon to the utmost to answer it. The blows that were received from seniors in football practice resembled, in a matter of strength, the blows from a powder puff, wielded by a mosquito. If the effect of those blows is going to govern the quality of the football team next fall, our average will be 1.000 minus the one. The Junior Class cannot help but exceed by far, the standards which have been set before them. Seniors: We accept your advice in good spirit and we will try to correct what few faults we have. We wish you success in all your future ventures and we hope that you will always remember the Classes of ’25, ’24, and ’23, as we will always remember you. CLASS WILL By James William Hayden LADIES, GENTLEMEN, TEACHERS, CLASSMATES AND FRIENDS: Upon behalf of my client, the esteemed class of 1922 I have called you in audience to listen to her last will and testament and to receive from her storehouse of priceless possessions the gifts which she will no longer need. Listen, then, everyone, while I read the document, drawn and subscribed to: Realizing that the day of the departure is at hand, and stand- ing on the threshold of the great unknown, with full control of our cherished memories and sparkling intellects we do make and publish this our last will and testament, hereby revoking and making void all former wills or promises by us made at any time, or carelessly spoken heretofore. Primarily, we do direct that our funeral services be conducted by our principal and his ever-wise and all competent faculty, making the only reservation that said services will be in harmony with our elevated place in the eyes of the world and with our glorious attainments. Item.—We give and bequeath to our dear faculty a long vaca- tion and many sweet and unbroken nights’ sleep. It will be unnec- essary for them any longer to burn the midnight oil, reading over our test papers. THE ENFIELD ECHO 43 Again, we bequeath to them all the startling information fur- nished them on our examination papers. They may hand these gems of thought to other classes or to the public at their own discretion. May such amazing facts be preserved and perpetuated. They are hereby authorized to notify all future classes that Daniel Webster was a southern orator and later the composer of the dic- tionary. Item.—We give and bequeath to the underclassmen our school spirit. May they learn to love the old school more and more as they grow older. Item.—We give and bequeath to the Junior Class our Senior dignity. May they strive to uphold it in spite of their light-minded- ness and irresponsibility. To the cast of next year’s play the never-to-be-forgotten ability of Gertrude St. George, Timothy Sullivan, Mildred Horton, Harold Stewart and Frank Combs. May they attempt to reach this acme of dramatic perfection. To the football team of next year the ability of Frank Mercik so that others, likewise endowed, may successfully make end. Item.—To our room teacher, Miss Gay, we give and bequeath the respect and perpetual friendship of the class of 1922, indi- vidually as well as collectively. Item.—We give and bequeath to The Thompsonville Press, and to the talented editor thereof, all the future hair-breadth escapes, attainments, sensations and undeserved notoriety that may be our lot in the years to come, that future classes may be inspired to imitate such illustrious predecessors. Item.—We give and bequeath to the Junior Boys, Arthur Meginn’s prolific athletic ability that they may follow his unex- celled example in working for the class and the school. Item.—We feel that the following trifling bequests should not be considered worthless ones, but should be regarded as assets by those fortunate enough to receive them. They are a striking and continual reminder of the extreme generosity of heart so displayed at all times by our class. 1st.—To any and all, Frank Comb’s unfailing bluff. No hurry need be made in applying for this gift as the supply is unlimited. 2nd.—To all underclassmen our seats in room one as comes their turn and all fixtures adhering thereto, namely cuds of gum and stale candy, contained therein, not that we couldn’t have used them ourselves, but their hurried disposal makes it impossible for us to accurately locate each and every part of this gift. Conse- quently we are obliged to allow the finder to be the keeper. 3rd.—To Sarah Billings and Gladys Greaves the gift of gab and loud tones of Hawkes. He hated to part with these. 4th.—To Rich, the business end of the Echo. May his work make the school paper the best advertising medium in northern Connecticut. 44 THE ENFIELD ECHO 5th.—To Prior, Stanislaus Niemiec’s unfailing good humor and smile, Niemic refused to part with his “gold mine.” Therefore we are not at liberty to include this as a part of the gift. 6th.—To Lois Pierce a book on, “The art of combining colors so they don’t affect the eyes.” 7th.—To Winifred Jones and Gertrude Stafford, all the odds and ends which can be found in the dressing room, characterized as a place “bad for the complexion.” Item.—All the residue of our property of whatever nature and wherever located and not disposed of by this will, we give and bequeath to our beloved principal for his sole benefit. And we do hereby constitute and appoint the said principal sole executor of this our last will and testament. In witness whereof, we the Class of 1922, the tes- tators, have to this our last will and testament, set our hands and seals this nineteenth day of June, ANNO DOMINI, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-two.

HANDY MUSIC—(Song)—“America the Beautiful” GLEE CLUB AND AUDIENCE 46 THE ENFIELD ECHO Class History (Continued from cPage 15) We searched so thoroughly into the treasures disclosed in the last room and worked so diligently on debates and in maintaining the high standard of our castle paper, the “Echo,” that we thought it necessary to pause on our course to have a number of informal dances, which were enjoyed by all members, and which was a means of adding a small sum to our class treasury. Soon after this we learned that a Prize Speaking Contest was to be given in which anyone in the castle could compete. Several of us entered this contest, and we were very proud when two of our members, Frank Combs and Timothy Sullivan, were chosen the victors. Our members again took important parts in the activities of the castle, the Glee Club Concert and the play, “It Pays to Ad- vertise.” Not long after the play was given Mr. Bowman left us to go to North Adams, Massachusetts. All members regretted the loss of our chief official. Mr. Handy, of Stafford Springs, Connecticut, succeeded Mr. Bowman. Our journey was drawing to a close. We all regretted that we were to be separated from our classmates so soon, and in order that we might remember each other, many of us had our pictures taken which we exchanged with our friends. At this time we chose our class flower, the American Beauty rose, and our class motto, concluding that the one given us on our entrance to the castle, “All goes if courage goes,” would be appropriate for us to carry with us through life. Now we have come to the end of our journey and are about to receive our diplomas certifying that we have made a proper exploration of the castle. As we go out into the world and our pathways diverge may we always be true to the “green and white,” the colors of our “Castle of Knowledge,” Old Enfield High.
