To t „ctt and every¬ one we 1 h the greatest success. But, class . f 1921, into whatever occupation you will enter we hope you will never forget old G. H. S. and the motto for which she stands —“Honor, Loyalty and Scholarship! ' $ In your future careers, may you look back upon the four years spent in G. H. S. as the pleasantest of your lives. Ma you realize that during this periou ou laid down the foundation for your future success. After commencement this year, the lower classmen will miss you as one of the most loyal and honored classes ever marshalled from the doors of G. H. S. We shall miss es¬ pecially those who have done so well on the school teams and those who have entered into the social and business activities of the school. That the class of ’21 has the right material for building success is clear¬ ly shown in tl e wonderful work dis¬ played in the senior play, in the con¬ tributions to “The Exponent,” and in the fine school spirit shown in school activities. Whether you will go to colleges and universities or directly to work, you will mix with various types of people and out of these, you will choose a certain few who will be your special friends. In doing this you must remember that an indi¬ vidual is often judged by the kind of friends he chooses and with whom he associates. Emerson says, “A friend is one who makes us be our best.” Everyone wishes success in life. Two great factors of success are work and constancy of purpose. We live only once; let us make our best of life! G. H. S. wishes future success and prosperity to you, class of 1921. To the editor in chief who has done so much towards the success of “The Exponent” in the past year, we wish to express our most grate¬ ful thanks. We, the new board of 1921-’22, accept the Exponent from the hands of the old and with the cooperation of the whole school, we wish to make “The Exponent” a still greater suc¬ cess than in former years.

SCHOOL NOTES On June 10, the Senior debating team, Miss Eberlein, Jones and Tjar- nell, with Billings as alternate, won a fine debate from the Junior team, O’Hara, Bostley and Magoon, with Feldburg as alternate. The subject was, “Resolved, that labor unions, as they exist today, are beneficial to the American people.” An en¬ graved loving cup, given by the Eng¬ lish department, was presented to the Seniors at the decision. On May 27, at Washington Hall, the Juniors managed a very success¬ ful “Prom.” The hall was very at¬ tractively decorated. The music was furnished by Curley’s Orchestra of Hartford. The Sophomore class has not been in the public light much this year, though well represented in the honor rolls and in athletics. In the latter, Merz, Brown, Cavanaugh, Parten- heimer, Corless, Powers and Vickery have taken part. Vickery did well in football and started well in base¬ ball, but had the ill luck to have an attack of appendicitis which kept him out of the game. The Freshmen have the longest honor roll of any class. This, of course, speaks well and we hope they can boast of the same during the rest of their course. In athletics, they have had Jan- gro, Richmond, Kauchinski and Thompson, Jangro being especially proficient. On the evening of the Junior-Sen¬ ior debate, the Freshman English Division presented two scenes from “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.” The players were Ralph Davis, Donald Roberts, Robert Clifford, George Voetsch, William O’Hara, Francis Alberti, Stephen Long, Arthur Lynch, Leonard Thompson, Lucy Sawtelle, Louise Donley and Theresa Shaw. 6 THE EXPONENT SALUTATORY Friends of Ireenfield High School: It is the custom of the graduating class to express its appreciation to those who have sacrificed and made possible this : oment, when we leave behind, forever, our high school days, and step forth into the world, young men.and women. 0 b, the class of 1921, following this ' long established custom, feel that the best way to show our sin¬ cere gratitude is to extend to you, our fathers, mothers and friends, the most cordial and warmest of wel¬ comes tonight. FAITH IN AMERICA Following swiftly the hour of Vic¬ tory, those glorious days of joy and gladness with their hope of a new and better life, came a breakdown in the morale of the peoples who had been engaged in the great conflict. As we look about us today, we see a world torn and troubled, grop¬ ing for a way back to light and op¬ portunity. True, it is the period of reconstruction, yet there seems to be no reconstructing. Even here in America we find ourselves halting instead of going forward. In our midst are depression, discontent and unemployment. We wonder what is to come of it all. What will America be ten years from today? What is to be our course at home? What is to be our conduct among the nations of the world? In our hearts we know the an¬ swer. America will continue to guarantee life, liberty and the pur¬ suit of happiness and be the leader and supporter of an advancing civi¬ lization. Now our problem is to determine the course of action that will get us on the right track to accomplish this end—then “full speed ahead!” That course of action will spring from a firm faith in America—her ideals, her traditions, her institu¬ tions; for it has been the indom¬ itable faith in these ideals, tradi¬ tions and institutions, a faith tested in peace and strife and made secure forever on the bloodiest battlefields at home and abroad, that has made America—and all she stands for to¬ day. If these then are to be our guide posts it will be well to stop and ask ourselves, what are these ideals, tra¬ ditions, and institutions? Go back to the very beginning. What trought the Pilgrims here? What did they want? Was it a thirst for gold, a passion for adventure or for dominion? No. Loyalty to truth and to duty as they saw it brought them to the rocky shores of a wild and savage land. The next great step was the Dec¬ laration of Independence, holding forth that all men are created equal and that life, liberty and the pur¬ suit of happiness are the inalien¬ able rights bestowed by God upon all his people. The republic was well launched under the guidance of George Wash¬ ington, whose advice and hope was that the North, East, South and West would ever be firmly bound togeth¬ er. In the progress and develop¬ ment of the one lies the progress and development of them all. And in our relations with the nations of the earth he would have us exert our in¬ fluence, not for one nation, but for the good of all nations. American ideals, traditions and in¬ stitutions so well laid, gathered strength as the years went on and were made secure in that next great ordeal—the Civil War. There is much that we can take to heart from this bitter struggle. How clearly those patriots of yester years perceived that their first duty was to preserve the institution of popu¬ lar rule, of national solidarity, that the institutions of this country were good and worthy of being preserved to keep the union a power for the advancement of America and human¬ ity—“that government of the peo¬ ple, by the people, and for the peo¬ ple, shall not perish from the earth.” It was the same in the more re¬ cent war of the free peoples against THE EXPONENT 7 the autocracies of the world. Ameri¬ can ideals and institutions were menaced and Americans valued suf¬ ficiently their heritage to cross the seas and fight. They gained the vic¬ tory for their country and won for the defeated the opportunity of es¬ tablishing free institutions and mak¬ ing the people supreme. Thus the America of yesterday points the way for the America of today. America meant everything to our forefathers. Our debt to them can never be discharged. It is for us and those after us to maintain for this people the high estate which has been established. With a firm courage and in the rugged principles of faith and duty we must carry on —for faith and duty when mated to courage form the most solid basis upon which the greatness of any na¬ tion can rest. Let our patriotism and zeal for America be as passionate in these days of peace as it was in war. We must cultivate that same singleness of purpose that characterized our war actions. Let us guard well our institutions and resist radicalism. This does not mean the strangling of progressive thought or resistance to the expansion of our constitution but it does mean resistance to any change in the fundamental Ameri¬ can principles. And need we fear the present? No. America is too big, too strong, too energetic, too young, too re¬ sourceful, too rich to fail! The world is looking to America as leader. America cannot and will not shirk this responsibility. And faith in America does not mean a narrow existence. On the contrary she will go out and do her share to work and build, but she will work and build in an American way. By this, I mean the fri ad of all peo¬ ples, of all nati s, having no favorites. Of late years we have been, in¬ dividually and nationally, pro-every- thing but pro-Am rican. Instead of progressing along the straight roadway of Americanism we have taken unknown detours, lured on by brilliant rainbow vis 1 ®. In our contact with internal malism, leagues to enforce peace, European traditions, policies and aspirations, our minds have become confused. By becoming violent partizans of one or another European nation we have illustrated perfectly the truth of George Washington’s observa¬ tions when he said that nothing is more essential than to exclude per¬ manent, deep-rooted hatreds against particular nations and passionate at¬ tachments for other nations. In their place just and friendly feeling towards all should be cultivated. The nation which indulges toward another an habitual hatred or fond¬ ness is in some degree a -slave. It is a slave to its ill will or its af¬ fection either of which is sufficient to lead it astray from its duty and its interest. What we need in America today is what we voiced ardently during the war but never were-—one hun¬ dred percent American! Let us have one hundred percent faith in American ideals, traditions, and institutions. Let us be one hun¬ dred percent American at home and abroad. Let us say as did a great American, “I shall know but one country. The ends I aim at shall be my country’s, my God’s, and Truth’s. I was born an American; I live an American; I shall die an American!” REBECCA EBERLEIN, ’21. VALEDICTORY We, the graduates of Greenfield High School, in the class of 1921, take this opportunity of thanking you, the people of Greenfield, for your interest in our welfare, as it is manifested by your presence here tonight at our graduation—a time that means so much in our lives. We are especially grateful to you teachers whose guidance and care we have been fortunate in having and whose interest in our well-being has been ever before us. My classmates, ever since we en- 8 THE EXPONENT tered G. H. S. as freshmen, we have looked forward to this very night; and, with the realization of our hopes, we know that these have been the four happiest years of our lives. Now that we have come to the place where separation is inevitable, we find that the years we have spent together have been all too short. Some of us will go out into the world immediately; others will continue their education; but whether it be the one or the other, let us ever re¬ main loyal to our school motto— “Loyalty, Honor and Scholarship.” OUR SOUTH AMERICAN PROBLEM Thruout all our history we, of the United States, have been in the habit of calling ourselves the only Americans and of utterly disregard¬ ing the numerous republics of South America. These republics are very sensitive and while we have, in the past, offended them sorely, as yet we have done nothing to create a bet¬ ter feeling. Consequently their re¬ spect for European countries is much greater and their feeling much bet¬ ter. In the long run, however, it will be this country which will suffer. We are seeing and we shall see even more, the unlimited trade of these republics, a trade that is legitimately ours and one of no little importance going toward enriching the old world. The manufacturers of America are content to sit back and wait for a big market to open up in China. While waiting—a wait that will, without doubt cover many decades and in the end be fruitless, for the Chinese people are and always will be a poverty stricken race—the trade of South America will slip away from our very hands, never to be regained without a great deal of competition with Europe. Already Great Brit¬ ain, Germany, France and Italy have built up a big trade with these coun¬ tries. Huge boxes, piled up on every wharf bear the words “Made in Ger¬ many” or “Made in England”—but almost nowhere does one find the words “Made in U. S. A.” Of the thousands and thousands of steamers that entered the South American ports every year prior to the war, only four or five flew the stars and stripes! Who is to blame? Has our attitude toward our sister-re¬ publics been right? The countries of South America will, without doubt, always remain importing countries. Their natural conditions are such as to make this a necessity. Manufacturing to any great extent, is impossible, for coal is a scarcity in most countries. In China a few mines have been dis¬ covered in recent years, but the out¬ put will never be great. A curious fact about these mines is that, after their discovery, they were lost to the world for over a hundred years and have only recently been redis¬ covered. The people have difficulty in securing even enough coal for their own use and a ton sells as high as sixty dollars. Then too, it is almost impossible and not at all practical to obtain power from the rivers. For these reasons South America is and will be forced to buy in the open markets of the world. Argentina alone spends over forty- six dollars a year per capita for im¬ ports while the other countries im¬ port accordingly. Just why, people ask, does Europe instead of the United States get this trade of South America? The ques¬ tion is not difficult to answer. The people of South America are a proud people, and they are content only with the best. Perhaps the follow¬ ing incident will illustrate this fact. During the business depression of 1915 an Englishman, in South Amer¬ ica, had been looking about for a house. He visited several large dwellings which were for rent or for sale. All the tenants were supposed to be at the shore. Newspapers were hung at the windows and the houses appear ed to be shut. But, imagine the Englishman’s surprise, when he found the tenants living in the back part of the house! They didn’t have enough money to go away for the summer and were too proud to be seen on the streets, so they were hid¬ ing until their neighbors returned from the shore. THE EXPONENT 9 This same trait is found in their dresses, manners, and customs. They always take to the brightest colors— regardless of the quality. One South American has said that if an Amer¬ ican was to buy up a lot of second hand cars, paint them bright red, green, purple, or orange and send them to South America, he would surely make his fortune. When these South Americans or¬ der a shipment of black cotton and another of reds and greens , they wish, naturally to receive what they have ordered. But American manu¬ facturers have the absurd idea that anything will pass in South America. An American once traveling in Chile said to a Chilean merchant—“Just what is the reason that you don’t import more goods from the United States?” The Chilean then told of this incident. It seems that the women of Chile either wear black or some very bright color—never any dull shades. An order was placed with an American merchant for a shipment of black cotton and one of bright green. When the ma¬ terial arrived, they found the green to be grey, with a note stating that the American merchant had pre¬ sumed that the Chilean had made a mistake in ordering green and had really wanted grey! Needless to say the order was returned and placed in the hands of an English firm who delivered the goods ordered and without any delay. The American manufacturers are altogether too independent. They try to do business with the South Americans in their own way, with no respect for the South American way. They must learn to respect the “manana” and remember that courtesy and friendliness go a long way in South America. Before we can hope to build up a trade, we must learn the people and learn their ways. Germany and Eng¬ land send hundreds of young men every year to become their repre¬ sentatives there, and they do not expect them to make just a flying trip. In the city of Buenos Aires alone, there are over 50,000 English¬ men, while the Americans number but 300. One American manufac¬ turer, horribly ignorant of South American ways, conceived the idea of doing his business by mail. Ac¬ cordingly, he had his catalogue print¬ ed in Spanish to send to Brazil! Now almost everyone knows that the Brazilians are Portuguese and speak only Portuguese; anything having to do with Spain offends them very much. This American has since wondered why he has never received an order from his Brazilian friends! People always say that, when in Brazil, if you can’t talk Portuguese, talk either French or English and you will get along much better. We are severely criticized by prominent men of South America for not requiring our students to study Spanish. They say that either French or German is taught and that the foreign language taught usually stimulates an interest for that coun¬ try in the student. Why not require them to learn Spanish and thus turn their eyes toward their Southern brothers? In most of the South American republics, the children are taught French and English with a view to getting them interested in us. Why then, do we not do like¬ wise? When it comes to investing money in South America, the people of North America have gone about it in the wrong way. They have been afraid to extend credit and therein they have made a mistake. The Ger¬ mans and the English have been will¬ ing to take a chance and have won, but the Americans are too cautious; they have denied credit and have se¬ riously offended the people. Before America can accomplish anything in this hemisphere, she must establish some banks. The people of South America judge a country by the number of its steamship lines and banks, chiefly the latter. Not only would these banks help those people, but they would be a very profitable investment. America must gain the trade of South America, but only by conforming to South American ways can she do it. These are but a few of the facts of our South American problem; but 10 THE EXPONENT they are more serious than we con¬ sider them. The future of these re¬ publics is most promising. Europe already realizes how valuable their trade is and she has done everything within her power to create a friend¬ ly feeling toward South America. We have stood aloof too long but the time has now come when our attitude must change and a better feeling be created between the two continents of this new world. MADELEINE FIELD, ’21. CLASS POEM (Melody “Massachusetts; Soil of Glory!”) Greenfield High School—Alma Mater Strong and steady beams her light, She has led us o’er youth’s pathway Ever pointing out the right; Now we leave behind forever Jolly days at Greenfield High, But this parting ne’er can sever Loyalty to Greenfield High! On life’s roadway if cares greet us If clouds blot our sunny skies, Memory softly will infold us Bringing days at Greenfield High; Happy days and golden hours Joyful moments gleefully spent; Full of hope and inspiration On life’s sea we now embark! Ties of love will ever bind us Closer to you, Greenfield High. Must we leave your walls forever? Why does time so quickly fly?

THE EXPONENT 11 PRESIDENT’S ADDRESS OF WELCOME In behalf of the Class of 1921, I extend a very sincere welcome to all those who have seen fit to attend this, our last informal gathering be¬ fore our graduation. Graduation will, we all know, mean the parting of the ways for us, of the class of 1921, but it will not mean the dislodgment from a prominent place in our minds of our school motto, — Loyalty, Honor, Scholarship. This motto, and what it means, along with other pleasant memories, will always linger with us. The longer we live and the more often we go over again, in our dreams, our younger days, the more and more of our thoughts they will occupy. As to the benefits we have de¬ rived from our period in High School, they cannot be fully de¬ scribed nor too fully appreciated. For we Seniors, on the point of leav¬ ing Greenfield High, know that we have received instruction and as¬ sistance of inestimable value. These benefits will figure prominently with us in our immediate futures and the results will , I feel sure, prove to you that we are not unappreciative. Thus will our debt to the school be, in part, paid. It is, however, to our parents for giving us financially the chance to go thru High School, and to the faculty and teachers for their un¬ tiring and unceasing efforts in our behalf, that we owe the most. The best and only way, to show our grat¬ itude is, we have decided, to make a striking success in overcoming the serious problems that will face us from now on. For our High School course has provided us with an edu¬ cation and knowledge that will easily solve the problems of life. Yet, all has not been hard work, for Vail work and no play make Jack a dull boy” and my classmates are anything but dull, I am convinc d We have had, under the friend! supervision of the Faculty, clean competition in athletics, outings and pleasure trips of all kinds, as well as social affair ' s and parties occa¬ sionally. These, along with the feel¬ ing of good fellowship, have made the past four years, four of the hap¬ piest years of our lives. This, we know, now that they are completed. And so now, classmates, let us do to all men in the future, as we have done to each other in the past, even tho they be our rivals. Let Us fol¬ low out our class motto and—“Lend A Hand.” ELPHEAGE V. KIROUAC. Pres’t ’21. THE DUTY OF THE INDIVIDUAL IN THE NEW AGE Class Oration The World War, in which the Allies so nobly, heroically, and at such a sacrifice saved civilization for the world, led us into a new epoch, the dawn of which we have seen spreading its growing light over the shattered and disorganized world. We cannot realize the immensity of the change which has been wrought in the economic, political, and social forces of the world. We live in a new age with the triumph of autoc¬ racy over democracy still uppermost in our minds. The effects of the war in changing the existing order of things can be fully realized by no one and only partly appreciated by a few whose minds are great enough to grasp the significance of the progress which is steadily going on around them. It is necessary in this great age for each to play his part in the prog¬ ress of civilization. The individual must do his share toward making the most out of his opportunities in or¬ der to become an asset to his coun¬ try and to the world rather than a liability. In order to insure to pos¬ terity the benefits for which the 12 THE EXPONENT heroes of the World War died we must all do our utmost that this great change will be for the best interests of humanity and towards that higher plane of civilization which has been the object of humanity for centuries. Since the war the nations of the world have been taxed to their utmost to solve successfully the gigantic problems created by the World War. These problems represent difficulties in our national life which must be correctly solved before the country can return to the normal state of peace times. These problems occupy the time of those in whose hands the reins of government lie. But when we study them and consider the ef¬ fects of the war, we often fail to realize that the standards of things have changed since 1914 and that the world has entered a new era, that we are living in the beginning of a new age and so these problems must be considered from standpoints which are in accord with the advance of the world. Let us endeavor there¬ fore to keep our ideas in tune with the world’s progress. To solve the problems of return¬ ing the country to a pre-war basis calls for the best there is in us. The industrial problems have caused us all great anxiety and discomfort. But let none of us sit back and criti¬ cize while we throw the blame for the conditions on certain parties. Rather let each one offer a solution for what he believes wrong. Let us study these problems and so come to realize the complicated nature of the troubles for this will keep us from censuring unneedfully and will give us the opportunity to help out by our advice and support being placed where they can be most ef¬ fective. The times make it neces¬ sary for every person to support the government to the best of his abil¬ ity. We should not expect the gov¬ ernment to do it all for that is im¬ possible. It is only thru co-opera¬ tion that the difficulties can be settled. We always find in rapid progress evil tendencies and forces. So in this time of progress the radical and revolutionary elements have seized on the new opportunities to instill harmful doctrines in the minds of those who will listen to them. They seek to pervert the working man with an account of his wrongs and a promise of an unobtainable Utopia. They desire revolutionary change in all our lines of national life. They wish to destroy the whole existing social fabric. Here then is the op¬ portunity for the individual to play a part in the happy outcome of this change. He is able to do something toward making this change gradual and within the bounds of reason. He can help to prevent fanatics from changing this progress towards a higher civilization to a downward course, for their aims are backward and if they were given leeway they might cause us to retrograde to the conditions under which Russia ex¬ ists today. It is necessary now more than ever for the individual to enlarge his viewpoint and to widen the scope of his thought. He must think in terms of the world and while retain¬ ing a steadfast love for his native land he should let his mind function with perfect freedom and not allow narrow ideas to hold him back to days of international rivalries. Per¬ haps we still have our international quarrels but there is a constantly growing sentiment, I hope, which arises from the love of peace in the hearts of men on this earth. We must think of our brothers in other lands as friends, not enemies. Therefore in this new age of the world’s history let each individual live his life so that it will be a factor in our progress, so that he may help in making the country a more noble, upright, and carefully progressive nation which will aid the world to reach a state where there is friend¬ liness instead of enmity as a pre¬ dominating characteristic. THE EXPONENT 13 IVY ORATION The Pioneer Women Educators Commencement week, when so many girls all over the country are finishing their high school courses, is an appropriate time to think of some of those women, who by their conscientious work, made it possible for the girls of today to receive an good an education as the boys. To the women of the nineteenth century the credit for preparing the way for the future liberal education of women belongs. Before this time it was hardly possible for a woman to obtain an education from any out¬ side resources, since both colleges and universities were closed to her. If she did succeed in raising herself from the uneducated position in which she found herself, it was through her own exertions. A lib¬ eral education formerly was not con¬ sidered necessary for a woman. She was only expected to marry and to know how to keep a comfortable home. To men, exclusively, be¬ longed the college and university training. At last, however, through the untiring efforts of several wom¬ en, the gate was opened so that wom¬ en desirous of further education, could obtain it. Chief among these were Mrs. Emma Hart Willard and Mary Lyon, names which are known far and wide because of their won¬ derful work for women. The town in which Mrs. Emma Willard was born was the quiet country parish of Worthington in Berlin, Connecticut. Her father, a man of unusual strength of intel¬ lect and will, well-read at least in the English literature of the times; her mother possessed of the quali¬ ties of a practical woman,—tact, shrewdness, efficiency and firmness, provided the background which made it possible for the girl to develop as she did. Picture for yourselves a mid-win¬ ter spent in their home. The even¬ ing over and the younger children put to bed, the rest of the family group themselves about a blazing fire. After the children have fin¬ ished their accounts of the day’s fun and work, they read selected pass¬ ages from famous authors, testing their ability in reading aloud. Then for another half-hour the father and mother read aloud. With this in¬ struction even the youngest was stirred by new, strange thoughts. This admirable home-training with two years in the village academy, then just opened, brought Emma forward to the commencement of her real life-work. She first experiment¬ ed by teaching in a village school, where, by her tact, she won the hearts of her pupils. Much of her spare time was spent in studying at the schools of Mrs. Royce and the Misses Patter. Soon after this Miss Hart went to teach in Westfield as assistant teach¬ er but after a year there she accepted a better position in Middlebury. At this time, she married Dr. John Wil¬ lard, a physician of Middlebury. For a few years her teaching was in¬ terrupted, but because of pecuniary reverses, she resumed her work again, and opened a boarding-school at Middlebury for girls. Even then she noticed how low and unworthy were the schools for women. She tried to get leaders of the day in¬ terested in the betterment of wom¬ en’s schools, but they showed no in¬ terest. After four years of the girls’ boarding-school experiment, the fame of it had gone far and wide. In an address sent to the New York Legis¬ lature, on a plan for improving fe¬ male education, she set forth the necessity of higher education for women so clearly that her plea met with the approval of the governor of New York and resulted in the es- 14 THE EXPONENT tablishment of a girls’ seminary at Waterford, in that state. This school was afterwards removed to Troy and incorporated under the name of the Troy Female Seminary. Under Mrs. Willard’s management, it gained a wide reputation and is still one of the leading schools for the higher education of women. It is now known as the Emma Willard school. Mrs. Willard also assisted in founding a school for girls in Athens, Greece. She traveled during her later life, through the Southern states, lecturing in behalf of the education of women. And now, be¬ cause of Mrs. Willard’s useful and honored life, her name will be re¬ membered in the United States as well as in Europe, as one of our famous pioneer educators. Another woman interested in the further education of women was Mary Lyon. Born in Western Mas¬ sachusetts, she was brought up by a widowed mother with many children and small means. This life was hard, but it rooted character deep down among the solid needs and es¬ sential efforts of existence. Every moment of Mary’s life was of use and was put to use. When she was still a small child, her mother found her one day playing with an hour¬ glass, but she explained to her moth¬ er that she thought she had found a way of making more time. In af¬ ter years she did make more time by using every minute advantageously. At the age of seven Mary walked two miles every day to attend a vil¬ lage school. She loved her studies and astonished visitors by her rapid progress. Finally the district school moved still farther away, and then Mary went to Ashfield to study, liv¬ ing there during school months and doing housework to pay for her board. When she was twelve years old, Mary decided to become a teach¬ er, a decision which astonished, as well as shocked the community. She pored over her books day and night and amazed the teachers by her rapidity. Miss Lyon said of her¬ self, “My mind runs like lightning.” It not only moved swiftly, but it held what it seized as it went. She was given a Latin grammar on Fri¬ day night. On Monday she recited the whole of it. Her first trial as a teacher was at Shelburne Falls where seventy-five cents a week and board made up her munificent salary. At the age of twenty she had saved enough money to attend Sanderson Academy at Ashfield. This was her great op¬ portunity and she improved it well, making a real sensation in the school by her brilliancy. They say that when Mary Lyon stood up to recite, her classmates laid aside their tasks to listen to her. After this she at¬ tended Byfield Academy at Byfield. Her friends advised her not to study further as she knew enough already, but Miss Lyon could not be diverted from her purpose. Suddenly the fact burst upon her that all things in this life were useless and unsatisfying except as they were used in helping humanity. From this time on she taught as though she were inspired. After becoming assistant at Sand¬ erson Academy, she left for a higher position at Derry. From here she went to Ipswich Academy, where she conducted the Academy with the aid of one of her former teachers. Dur¬ ing these years, Miss Lyon had been full of sympathy for the girls who could not get an education and de¬ sired one. So she tried to interest wealthy men, ministers and college presidents in her plan for forming a high-grade school or college for women. Most of these men refused. After much hard labor people began to take interest and this interest grew until at last Mount Holyoke Seminary, an institution which has grown into one of the foremost col¬ leges of the day, was opened. Do we fully appreciate the hard work done by these women who worked so hard not only to obtain an education for themselves, but also to help other girls to accomplish the same end? Then let us show our appreciation by having our lives demonstrate to the world that their work was not in vain. B. C. LOVELL. THE EXPONENT 15 THE LOG OF THE GOOD SHIP G. H. S. IN THE VOYAGE FROM 1918-1921 It was June 26, 1917, when one hundred and one mariners left the Pleasant Street Wharf, said good¬ bye to “Daddy Flint” and prepared for a four years’ sail on the good ship G. H. S., planning to land on Graduation Island about June 30, 1921. As we looked at those who had been traveling somewhat longer than we, the island seemed quite a dis¬ tance ahead. Those voyagers, who had been on for four years appeared so natural, so at ease, that it seemed to us new passengers, they must have always been traveling. We were timid, a bit bashful; in fact, so much so, that we were rather looked down upon by the older, more dignified ones. But the fond hope entertained when we first came aboard that we might some day at¬ tain that state is realized here today, for what better examples of solemn and learned dignity could you ask for, than Robert James Rist or Eliza¬ beth Doris Peck? The first day of the voyage many members found quite a bit of difficulty in getting their sea-legs and ran around in much excitement, noticeably Homer Staples and Ray Houghton. We found that the other voyagers had officers, so we got together and elected Edward Zeiner, Captain; Madeline Field, Mate; Katherine Lawler, Steward; and John Regan, Purser. Early in October, the members of Class ’20 endeavored to give us a re¬ ception and their endeavors were very successful, for every one agreed that the first social event couldn’t have been better. Of course, athletics played their part and quite an important one with us, for “Bud” Griswold and “Vic” MacDonald certainly did their bit. During the entire year, we were sailing over the ripples of war and all did their share in helping Uncle Sam win the fight. We purchased War Savings Stamps and contributed toward the Victory Loan. The girls sewed for the Red Cross, while the boys joined the military squad. The one great sorrow of the year was the departure of our pilot, Mr. Jewett. Altho we had known him only for a few months, his loss was felt seriously by the whole crew. Mr. Hodges was elected to take his place and the sailing was smooth, until we fell into the depths of Finals—and then it was the Prom. I’ll admit the two didn’t furnish the same style of anticipation, altho they took place, one right after the other. Some¬ how, most of us swam through Finals, felt sorry for those who failed, and then dared look about us again. The Juniors surely gave us a good time at the Prom. For most of us, it was our first real party, and the conclusion of a pleas¬ ant sail. We landed at Sophomore Dock and set out, rather scattered in num¬ bers, to enjoy a two months’ fur¬ lough. II Our second year started under the rule of a new pilot. On the first appearance of Mr. Smith, one might judge him to be most severe but upon becoming acquainted, we found that he always had a pleasant smile and generally a word for those he met along the decks. With Victor MacDonald as Cap¬ tain; Lucille Hunt, Mate; Irma Winslow, Purser; and Elpheage Ki- rouac, Steward, we anticipated a splendid year. It was now our time to give a festival, so committees were ap¬ pointed and we tried to give as good a reception as was given to us. We had been sailing but a short time, before an epidemic of the “Flu” broke out. We were quaran¬ tined in one direction and then in another until, finally, it was neces¬ sary to dock. At the end of a five weeks’ vacation on land, we came back. The five weeks were not so bad while they lasted, but for the remainder of the voyage, we were 16 THE EXPONENT obliged to work harder than before, making up for lost time. A number of our members made their debut as authors and several had essays appear in “The Record¬ er. ” Beatrice St. Lawrence chose a good subject for hers; at least, some say it was one with which she was familiar: “Burning the Midnight Oil.” “Rain” is the title that Mabel Sweeley chose for her essay, and “The Excitement of Having a Bank Account” was written up by Con¬ stance Lovell. Only a few of the very good ones that were printed have been mentioned. Weary of the general routi ne of the year, about twenty-five members, after much confusion, hired tenders and rowed (rode) to Spofford Lake for a picnic. On a party of their own, Joe Bonneville with Buckley and Houghton nearly drowned by upsetting a canoe. Otherwise things were quite nor-, mal and everybody had a wonder¬ ful time. Another Prom and then—we were half way through the course; some had left the ship for positions else¬ where; some had moved away; some had gone to sail on larger and per¬ haps better known ships; but about ninety were still floating. ’Twas a happy gathering that crowded onto the decks of Good Ship G. H. S. the first Tuesday of September, 1919. The cabin and staterooms were crowded to their capacity, and the excitement was in¬ tense as our steady pilot, Mr. Smith, again hoisted anchor. “Hurrah! We’re off,” shouted we of the Good Ship. The first call came for the athletes to man the boats and go far out to sea to contest for the banner which floated for the fastest team. It was for the purple and gold banner which now hangs in our Chapel Hall, that made the Good Ship’s mates fly neck and neck with Shelburne’s fast ship, but finally we passed her with a mighty shout. Our biggest triumphs were when Ray Houghton and Charlie Bates’ little boats crossed the mile marks, easy winners of their events. Then the bugle sounded again. It called for a captain and mates to take the crew of ’21 on their course. Our captain, McDonald, had bade us farewell on our last voyage; and a new captain must be chosen. With loud rejoicing, Herbert Buckley was elected, with Edna Christopher as first mate; Mary Nims, second mate; Robert Rist, chief purser, and Eliza¬ beth Peck, assistant purser. Around decks went up signs: “Chocolate for Sale. Help the Good Ship ’21 for our Big Festival, the Prom!” And they did. Sea life became monotonous on board, so the skippers suggested a Hallowe’en Party with cornstalks, cider and doughnuts. The “hop” was ag rand affair and a boom¬ ing, success, financially. Then we encountered choppy sea and all held to the rail until the horizon cleared. A new “passage” system was established with “six” as the minimum mark. This pleased some of the passengers, who found it hard to get the necessary “seven.” One day there was a scramble on deck and we heard Captain Joe Bon¬ neville say: “Let’s get a crew and show these outside “rookies” some football.” With the aid of “Bud” Griswold, “Ray” Houghton, Clark Woodrow, and Luther Wood, of the crew of ’21, they showed that a promising team could be looked for in coming voyages. Dark clouds filled the horizon again and fierce winds blew from the north, warning us of the ap¬ proach of enemy ships. “Choose one and board it for the coming storm,” said our teachers. Some hailed the one called “Himarx” and more fell to “Lomarx” until the terrible “Mid- gers” were over. Storms at sea cease quickly, and the good ship found its course again. The decks were being cleared for Basket Ball crew. Captain Griswold, with Herbert Buckley, Ray Hough¬ ton, Joe Bonneville, and Clark Wood- row, of our Ship ’21 hailed the Turn¬ ers’ Ship and exciting races resulted. Each boat won a victory, but ours was a decisive one, while they won by a margin. Then the elder skippers called for some more jigs and reels and thus THE EXPONENT 17 the New Year Party was held, with an ideal evening as a result. Every¬ one enjoyed the recreation after the terrible suspense of “Midgers.” Again the cry went out tor more money to replenish the provisions and to pay for the festival affairs. As usual, a ray of hope came from the unexpected, in form of one who had just come aboard who said: “Let us try our voices in shouting to the sea dragons, and see who can per¬ form the best.” For many weeks the sore throat gargles were used faith¬ fully, and at last the crew of Public Speakers came on deck for the first time in the voyages of G. H. S. It was a successful trial and will prove to be a big factor in coming trips. Madeline Field, Catherine Hamilton, and Celia Pease took the honors, but the decision was close. The Baseball Banner was yet to be captured and with Joe Bonne¬ ville, Herbert Buckley, Ray Hough¬ ton and pitcher, Bartlett, from the Ship ’21, we contested hard, but our boat lacked the experience of that crack Orange crew. As we approached the end of the voyage, a picnic island was reached and all went ashore for a stroll and swim. We found Lake Spofford an ideal place and everyone voted “’twas a good time.” The good ship ’21 took up anchor again and said farewell to our Senior crew in the last and best Prom Festival ever held on the decks of the big ship called “Greenfield Armory.” The expense was great but who worried when the dance was on? Dark clouds must take care of themselves and storms come in the future. Dance on! We watched the older passengers go down the plank to Graduation Port, to take passports for other voyages. Thus , we were left alone to enjoy two months’ leave of ab¬ sence. ' ’ -! ' ' ’- When we gathered on deck again and the anchor was lifted, the decks of olde G. H. S. were too crowded. To be exact, four hundred and fif¬ teen skippers had come aboard, when only three hundred and sixty- five could be accommodated. So it was necessary to allow only one half of the deck hands on duty at once. “Very inconvenient,” said our pilot, Mr. Smith. The annual boat race was held and for the first time in four years, Shelburne nosed us out by a small margin. But the redeeming feature was the little “Hot Dog Boat” which was anchored off side the Big Ship. With its lusty voices and painted signs it tempted the public to help pay our Festival Prom debt left over from last year. And again the Purser was able to look the world in the face. An S. 0. S. wireless call came from the “big bosses” for cash to run the “Hops,” football, basketball and baseball crews. So the ever- alert Elpheage Kirouac and Rebecca Eberlein came to the rescue and handed us pledges to “pay our passages or get off” and it brought the desired effect. We paid a little more but got very much more for our money. That’s business. The usual signs of storms were noted in the roll and rocking of our good ship so we got together and got a head. Elpheage Kirouac was elected captain, with Edna Christo¬ pher as first mate; Irma Winslow as second mate; Madeliene Field as chief purser and Donald Perry, as¬ sistant purser. Then the good old ship tacked about and went steadier until mutiny among the faster element called for another festival. Again the crew of ’21 had the Hallowe’en Party, with some one present who evidently thought the cider and doughnuts were too good for those for whom they were intended and made away with them. Perhaps, they dumped them over-board and perhaps they didn’t. “Enuf Sed.” The next wind Mother Fortune saw fit to send, was in form of pos¬ ters and signs plastered all over the ship to the effect that “Good English Week is for You!” So each class did its best and showed us why we should use better English. Some one got out a warrant for Ray Houghton and brought proceedings in court against him on grounds that he used bad English and had com- 18 THE EXPONENT mitted other offenses which were tried before a large audience. The picked jury, after long meditation, pronounced the prisoner “guilty” and imposed a just punishment for his wrong-doings. The football crew again came forth with Captain Joe Bonneville, Ray Houghton, Herbert Buckley and Manager Clark Woodrow from the ’21 crew. More races were won than in the preceding years which was encouraging. The usual storms were encount¬ ered on the rocky shoals of “Mid- gers.” Again the crew of ’21 met the terrible suffering and sickness. In order to encourage our liter¬ ary aspirants and get some good reading matter, a prize was offered for the best imagination and was “gathered in” by Grace Turner, who also did her share in taking the same award the year before. An Honorable mention should be given to Ruth Clark, whose efforts to imi¬ tate Edgar Allen Poe were contrib¬ uted faithfully. The whistle sounded again for a basketball crew. It was launched with Captain Ray Houghton in charge, and Herbert Buckley, Joe Bonneville, Clark Woodrow, Wilbur Hartman and Manager Ralph Clapp helping to make a crew of which Greenfield was proud. For the first time in many years a Greenfield skipper was considered worthy of a place as an All-Valley Star which our Captain Ray Houghton proved to be. The next bit of excitement came in the form of singers from the Athol Ship, challenging us to exercise our voices; so we went over to their ship and entertained them with our best songsters from the ’21 crew. And “do you know” that the next event which caused the most alarm was when Tailor Gibson “drank too much champagne” and the spiritual¬ istic craze “got us all?” Everyone went wild ’cause we said, “You are an old fool, and if I say you are an old fool, you are an old fool.” Every¬ one knows how the poor Private Secretary got mixed up with the “cracked uncle” and into other pre¬ dicaments which called for much ex¬ planation to the audience, who came aboard the big ship Lawler. The class of ’21 was well satisfied that their credit was reestablished and the cash register rang up good amounts. According to authority ’twas a creditable production for any amateur skippers. In time of storm it was hard to communicate for help, so the gen¬ iuses of the crew led a campaign for a wireless and a good start was made. May others do as much as our Donald Perry has done for the cause. The Baseball crew with Herbert Buckley in charge, aided by Joe Bonneville and Pitcher Bartlett, again set forth for Greenfield and fast teams were slowed up by Cap¬ tain Buckley’s clan. Before leaving the subject of athletics, we wish to point with pride to three all-around captains of sports: Joe Bonneville of Football, Herbert Buckley of Baseball, and Ray Houghton of Basketball; not one individual star but three pluggers for G. H. S. Before the voyage was over, the younger crew hailed us for a debate and before an interested audience, the crew of ’21 proved its superior¬ ity. Credit goes to Harold Tjarnell, Who spoke and refuted like a Sen¬ ator, precisely and convincingly. Darker clouds than ever before formed on the home stretch, and as the crew of ’21 was given her fare¬ well Festival Promenade, we won¬ dered if we must leave. It was a fine farewell but for the time, the real significance was forgotten. The last supper was in form of a banquet on shore called the “Man¬ sion House,” and ’twas a sad realiza¬ tion that our good times together were over. Bright clouds, however, soon appeared and the sun shone brightly as anchor was dropped in Graduation Harbor. Shore dress was donned and flat caps adorned our heads as we marched down the gang plank as Alumni Skippers. The rejoicing on dock ceased for a few minutes while the good ship pulled up anchor. Now we leave her to resume the voyage alone with best wishes for Loyalty, Honor and Scholarship. HOLLIS D. BILLINGS. CATHERINE F. HAMILTON.

Suppose we see what they will be doing in the years to come.” “All right, you sit there and I’ll sit here. We shall see what hap¬ pens.—Look, the crystal glows. It becomes bright now! Oh!

PRESENTATION OF THE CLASS GIFT As we, of the Class of 1921, are about to terminate our High School career, we realize fully, for the first time, how much benefit we have de¬ rived from our four years of study here, and just how much we are in debt. Such a debt can never be repaid, but as a slight token of our appre¬ ciation, we of the Senior Class, give, to Greenfield High School, fifty dol¬ lars to be expended for the purchase of books for the School Library, at the discretion of the Faculty. Thus do we hope to assist the oncoming classes in the carrying out of the last part of our school motto—name¬ ly, Scholarship. ELPHEAGE V. KIROUAC ’21. IVY SONG (Auld Lang Syne) 1 Oh little ivy of success, We plant you here with care; Your glossy tendrils of success Must be without compare. 2 Oh little ivy of success We beg you to grow high, Your leafy ladder of success Should reach up to the sky. 3 Oh little ivy of success You must climb very high; The standard of our Senior Class Must never, never die. MILDRED STILES. 22 THE EXPONENT SENIOR SKETCHES—CLASS OF 1921 ELPHEAGE VICTOR KIROUAC “I luff to be among the lassies” We all think “Pheage” is the cutest ever, but we aren’t the only ones, worse luck. “Pheage” is one of the valuables of che First National Bank, and as we realize that he is a treas- fare, he has been entrusted with all sorts of offices, among which he shone as Secretary, Business Manager, Treasurer, crafty card-player in the Senior play, and to cap the climax, president of our famous class in its last year of its diligent - study—at G. H. S. He also carefully managed the Seniors’ V ‘trip to Washington—it is reported he was very, very busy during this voyage. Dartmouth College is to be honored with “Pheage’s” presence sometime in the near future. EDNA CHRISTOPHER “How small a part of time they share. That are so wonderous sweet and fair.” When we asked “Ed.” what she had done for G. H. S. she said simply: “Oh, nothing much; just vice-president of the senior class, on the Junior Prom committee, a few unimport¬ ant dance committees, a member of the Pro-Merito society and one of the class prophets”. Of course “Ed.” was too shy to mention that she was an expert typist, never writing less than 25 words per minute. She expects to attend a business school later on. MADELEINE ELIZABETH FIELD “There is none like her, none.” “Fieldy” has long been the prop of the class, filling all the positions that no one else had. Although she can serve a wicked ball, “by chowder”, and handle the mandolin, bas¬ ket-ball, books, ’n everything, she has had a little spare time to spend on such trivial matters as winning the first prize in the Junior Speaking Contest, excelling in the “pigeon-toe” for “The Private Secretary”, and holding the offices of Senior director of the S. A. S., Captain of the Girls’ Basketball team, Editor-in-Chief of the “Exponent”, and many, many others. Oh yes—we forgot to mention that she is Valedictor¬ ian. We wish her lots of luck next year, and hope she doesn’t get lo t on her long voyage to Oberlin. i THE EXPONENT 23 IRMA LUELLA WINSLOW “Blue were her eyes the fairy flax” Irma awoke one morn and was overhelmed to find her¬ self a member of the Pro Merito Society. A though she really has a slender appetite she admits chat she would walk almost anywhere for “Stt ”. Irma goes to a Boston school of Domestic Science. DONALD LAWRENCE PERRY “He views the world from an unusual altitude.” “Don” has long taken a violent interest in currants (rasp¬ berries or something 1 ' ke that) of electricity, anything in the experiment line, ai d all sorts of unearthly subjects hitched to awe-inspii ing names. He proved his scholarly nature in “The Private Secretary” (we know that goggles turned the trick). Donald has held down many worthy of¬ fices, but these are nothing compared with his wonderful ability in serving as class marshal. He dearly loves to sleep, especially during the drowsy P. M. session, which he realizes is the time for rest and quiet. Donald enters R. P. I. next year. REBECCA SALOME EBERLEIN “Grace was in all her steps, Heaven in her eye, In every gesture dignity and love” “Becky” has been very prominent in high school, being one of the recent senior debaters, literary editor of the Exponent, a member of the Pro-Merito society, and finally salutatorian of the class. Congratulations! Notwithstanding her bashful¬ ness “Becky” made quite a hit in “The Private Secretary”. Oh no, she isn’t going on the stage, but intends to remain at home for a whPe and then go away to school. 24 THE EXPONENT MERLE COMFORT STARR ADAMS “These birds have joyful thoughts” Merle came to us from Rowe this year, and we have cer¬ tainly benefited by his presence. Although he ha not yet had time to fill many positions he has certainly made a hit (especially among the fair sex) with his, cheery smile. Prob¬ ably this is the reason for the large crowds which flock daily to the Mohawk Chocolate Shop, for refreshments. Merle goes to Northeastern College next fall.. CHARLES EDWARD BALLOU “A close mouth catches no flies.” “Spider” is one of the silent members of the class of ’21 and he can’t seem to realize that he is no longer a mere freshman who should be “seen and not heard.” But, never mind, he’s one ' of those wise people who keep what they know to themselves, and we learn that it is because of this fine trait that he has retained the eminent position as “chief boss” of the Greenfield branch of the Franklin County Lum¬ ber Co., where he intends to work after finishing school. IRVING LUCIUS BARTLETT, JR. “A mighty hunter, and his prey is woman.” “Fat,” the world renowned pitcher, divides his precious time between baseball and wild women (?) and be is one of the few who can manage both. But it’s no wonder, just look at the size of him ! Maybe we could do the same if we only had the chance. “Fat” expects to go to M. A. C. where he can teach the “hicks” a thing or two about base¬ ball. CHARLES HENRY BATES “I love tranquil solitude And such society As is quiet, wise and good.” “Charlie” tells us that he has done nothing during his high school career—but shall we ever forget that sensational bicycle race he won for us at the track meet last September? Well, hardly! But he is such a bashful, quiet little boy he wouldn’t admit it; yet we just know he’s going to get all over it when he ventures out into this great wide world. THE EXPONENT 25 HOLLIS DAVID BILLINGS “A still, small voice”. “Sonny” otherwise known as the famous “Private Secre¬ tary” is noted far and wide for his soft, musical tones, which charm and put to sleep all who listen. Maybe this accounts for the naps now and then indulged in by various students during the long school hours. His favorite expressions (meant to denote great pleasure) consist of “Um, rasp¬ berries,” and “ummmmm, the bees’knees”. “Sonny” goes to The Boston School of Pharmacy. FRANCES ELIZABETH BLACKALL “Then she will talk, ye gods, how she will talk!” Frances is certainly a busy person. Between endeavoring to arrive at school sometime during the morning and to return sometime during the afternoon she is kept at her wits’ end. She is often seen rushing madly about after “that pesky paper that went and lost itself”, but being a shy, retiring young lady it is almost impossible to coax a word from her! Her fondest ambition is to visit the assembly hall sometime in the future to see if there really is such a place . A • V- JUANITA BOGUE “I know a maiden fair to see, Take care, take care.” “Nita” joined our ranks in the Sophomore year, coming to us from the wilds of Vermont. Since that time, she has added much to the social life of the school. This brown¬ eyed blonde has made many friends and even has “her cap¬ tain working for her now.” JOSEPH ERNEST BONNEVILLE “Midnight shout and revelry. Tipsy dance and jollity.” There is no need of our telling what “Joe” has done for the school as far as athletics are concerned for we all know of his expert baseball, football and basketball playing, and we also know that happy. smile of his when we see it. “Joe” believes in and lives up to the old adage “Variety is the spice of life.” You know what I mean! 26 THE EXPONENT BEATRICE JEANNE BOURBEAU “Nought is denied her, mind alert, intent Eyes that look deep into the heart of things; A skillful hand to shape, a firm will bent For purpose that have no petty ends.” “Bee” came to us from “over the hill.” Although never attaining any offices, she’s one of the shining stars of the class of 1921, being a member of the Pro Merito Society. When it comes to socializing. “Bee’s right there, especially in the company of a certain “Atholite” ( ?) One of her chief traits is developed to a high degree of perfection; namely, her ability to argue upon all subjects at all times. “Bee” expects to devote her time to stenography in the future. Let’s hope she achieves great success in her found profession. GEORGE HAROLD BOUTWELL “To be great is to be misunderstood.” Yes, we all know that “Bouty” is a “deucedly fine chap” and we’re not the only ones who know it either. For more information in regard to the matter just inquire of the fa’ r damsels of Athol High. “Bouty” surely is a fine hand with the ladies, and if you don’t believe it ask him. Perhaps you noticed how crowded were the first ten rows of the theater the night of the senior play. You see they were all his ardent admirers. ETHEL ADA BROCKLESBY “With the smile that was childlike and bland.” This wee bit of humanity finds in life at least two pleas¬ ures. The first and most important, hairdressing; and sec¬ ondly, note-writing. If Ethel grows a bit when she finishes school she is going to apply for a “responsible stenographic position” but, as it is now, that would be quite impossible for she would be mistaken for a mere child. HERBERT FRANCIS BUCKLEY “Born for success he seemed, With grace to win, with heart to hold With shining gifts that took all eyes” “Buck”, our star athlete, school comedian, and champion “arguer” surely has made good in all three of these branches. He has also been devoting a great deal of his time to the study of a “Bee”. Of course, in that undertak¬ ing he has had considerable trouble for “Bees”, you under¬ stand, sting once in a while and they are rather difficult and delicate things to handle. Buck goes to Dean Academy and then to Syracuse. THE EXPONENT 27 GLADYS FLORENCE BUTLER “Her ways are ways of pleasantness And all her paths are peace”. “Glad” says she was on time for school every single morning for a whole week. Now isn’t that a pretty good record? She has another good record that can’t be beaten. Here it is: On the Washington trip she wasn’t late for even one meal. Good work isn’t it? Gladys informed us recently that she expected to study music. Good luck “Glad” ! RALPH HANSON CLAPP “In the right place is his heart.” “Clappie” can truthfully say that he is a hard working man (?) and we will back him up, for haven’t we all seen him madly driving a huge truck through our peaceful streets ? And you must have seen the “classy garb” that goes with it. Overalls sure ly are a sign of work, that we know. He expects to be sole owner of the express business some day, and so he is constantly working toward that goal. RUTH IRENE CLARKE “Thoughts were deep rooted in her, like p ' ne trees dark and high” Ruth is the school authoress, rivaling Grace in writing “thrillers” for the “Exponent,” Hist! We feel quite sura that she has for some time been secretly planning to startle the world as a second Edgar Allen Poe, sometime in the near future. Ruth plans to attend Normal School this fall. JEANETTE COATES “How far that little candle throws its beams” “Coatsy” is the petite maiden who is willing to try any¬ thing once. Since the Latin clas_s was deprived of the in¬ spiration of her presence the marks have fallen below par. As a Sunday School teacher she forces her pupils to learn her favorite books of the Bible by heart—Samuel. “Shrimp” departs for Bradford next year. 28 THE EXPONENT DORIS ELIZABETH COLLER “It hurteth not the tongue to utter fine words” “Dot” came to us from Athol and she brought her good nature along with her. She didn’t forget her eyes, either, and she certainly knows how to use them. Just ask “Spider”. He knows ’cause she “vamps” him every fourth period. Can you imagine “Dot” toiling for a lawyer? Yet she does and we wonder if she’ll keep it up when school is over. RUTH ANNIE FRESHOUR “Oh restless spirit!” Ruth’s chief characteristic is industriousness, and under her pick-upative hands order usually reigns. She often attends church suppers, (especially when they serve pickles) where she has been known to shock those present by mis¬ taking jello for a base-ball. Ruth has a position at the Court House for the coming year. GRETCHEN MAE FULLERTON “So light of spirit!” Gretchen hails from Rowe and has added much to the conversation since her arrival. She seldom fails to attend chapel where she may often be seen munching on hunks of licorice. Gretchen plans to become a nurse this fall. MARY ELIZABETH GROGAN “She that was ever fair and never proud Had tongue at will, and yet was never loud” “May” has been one of the real live members of the class of ’21 and she is a good friend of all who know her. She is a star basketball player and we wonder if this is the only “game” at which she is so “speedy”. Not even a streak of lightning could get by her if she was trying to guard it. “May” says she wished they would let her in up at Norwich this fall. We wonder why. THE EXPONENT 29 CATHERINE FRANCES HAMILTON “Ah, such a voice!” “Kitten” is the girl with the saucer eyes, which she uses to advantage in no special class. Catherine has developed a strong swimming stroke as a result of her long continued practice for the Senior play. Her magic voice along with “them” eyes fetched the second prize in the Junior Speaking Contest. “Kitten” intends to develop this art at Leland Powers Institute the coming year. WILBUR CLAPP HARTMAN “Lord! I wonder what fool it was that first invented kissing.” “Web” says he made a bluff at playing basketball last winter, but we saw the games and so, know differently. He is also a shorthand shark (or otherwise?) He has just learned that there really is a bit of difference between shorthand and hen-scratching. “Web” is undecided as to what he will do. HELEN LOUISE HARTSHORN “So tender was her voice, so fair her face” Helen was a new arrival this year, landing here unex¬ pectedly from Rowe. She walked away the first thing with the championship in the Fast-Speaking Contest, and has kept it ever since. Helen can reel off words whose mere sound make her open-mouthed audience gasp with wonder. She even knows those funny Latin names. Helen is not yet sure of her next year’s address. RUTH EVELYN HIGGINS “Truthful is she, running over with energy” “Higgy” came to us last year from the wild, woolly West, and we only wish she could have arrived sooner. She is a “hum dinger” at the wheel, and likes anything that’s lively, even Greenfield street cars. Ruth made a hit on “Kid’s Day”, especially in the Geometry class. Ruth is going to show ’em some real ginger at Sargent this fall. E EXPONENT IRENE JULIA HORRIGAN “Hang sorrow! care will cause trouble And therefore, let’s be merry.” “Eye” says she doesn’t care if she is small because “good things come in small packages,” and she’s made the Pro- merito society. But even though she is tiny she spends her afternoons shuffling freight at the Electric Express office. No “Ed.” doesn’t work with her, this is one time when they are separated. “Eye” will continue to work there until she goes to a business college in the fall. RAYMOND STETSON HOUGHTON “I loaf and invite my soul” “Ray” has had his ups and downs in high school; his ups with reference to athletic and both ups and downs as far as “Nita” is concerned. To counteract the fact that he worked hard to make the teams he had to have some fun out of school. Hence the “cider-stealing escapade” and similar wild pranks and adventures. “Ray” goes to Springfield Y. M. C. A. and we all wish him the best of luck. LUCILLE ESTHER HUNT “Her friends—they are many. Her foes—are there any ?” “Hunty” first made her debut on the stage in “The Private Secretary,” and we’ll say it was successful, too. However, altho’ she is a first class actress, she can wield a tennis racket with the same amount of skill. There’s no use trying for them—when they go over—for they simply can’t be seen! By the way, did you notice how she upheld the honor of G. H. S. at Athol with the same powerful stroke? Well, she did. “Hunty” is a great naturalist, and altho’ she frankly admits she can’t tell all the flowers when they’re in bloom, she can always pick out the “Buds.” She plans to become the champion of the fair sex by taking an athletic course, and she’s going to “ kid-More to do it! We wish her all kii of luck ! ;, f NELLIE MARION AVIS JOHNSON “Whose little body lodged a mighty mind” Nellie is one of the dark-eyed lassies of the class and all her interests are not in school, although one of them does hang around outside the building every day at one o’clock. We haven’t any idea what Nellie intends to do but we pre¬ dict something in the domestic line. Are we right? THE EX1 31 RUSSELL PAUL JONES “A man of books and meditation” This brainy lad holds position as first-class Algebra Shark. Nobody knows where we should be but for his fatherly ad¬ vice on the “stickers”. He’s a wonder and a joy forever Ask any of his charges. “Russ” believes in sleeping while he may, be it church or French period. FLORENCE EIRENE KILEY “Silence is deep as Eternity, Speech is shallow as Time.” Florence comes to us daily from “clear way up” the Ber- nardston road, but we have never known her to be late. Can we who live only a stone’s throw from the school say as much for ourselves? Although she is a quiet, loving girl she can enjoy herself anywhere, anytime with anybody. She is undecided as to which business school she will attend this fall. MAYDA ELSIE LAMOUREAUX “She moves a goddess. She looks a queen” “May” pretends to like studying but we are rather doubt¬ ful, because we can’t understand how she can devote so much of her time to “K-” and still find time for school work. You ought to see her “blush and show her dimples” when she reads this. That seems to be her great failing and she just can’t get over it, but it is so very becoming we don’t mind it at all. “May” has been very popular with her friends (especially the boys) and we all wish her as good luck when she goes out into the business world. br. KATHERINE MAY LAWLER “Her heart was in her work”. Katherine has proved a wonderful success as “one of those S. A. S. collectors” in Room 8. There’s no use trying to dodge her, ’cause she’s always right there. However, she has her good points, and we’ll all admit that she can rattle the key board. Aeneid permitting, she will start her career at Smith College next year. 32 THE EXPONENT RALPH CHARLES LOCKHART “Slow and easy.’’ Ralph comes to High by way of the street car every morning. However, he has been with us several years. He is an expert at delivering extemporaneous speeches, as his soft drawl fills in the pauses. He has been manager of the baseball team this season. Ralph goes to Northeastern College next year. BERTHA CONSTANCE LOVELL “She is good as she is fair— To know her is to love her’’. “Connie” has brightened our high school days with her happy smile. We all seem to have the impression that she is a shy, bashful, little girl but “you’d be surprised”. You should have seen the officer she “vamped” on the Washing¬ ton trip. “Connie” goes to North Adams Normal. Wouldn’t you just love to go to school all over again and have her for a teacher ? VERNE WILLIAM LYMAN “Well, there is yet one day of life before me, And, whatsoe’er betide, I will enjoy it.” Verne is the person with the lungs, who began his stage career in “The Private Secretary” arousing everyone’s ad¬ miration, and standing their hair on end with his fierce gesture and rough manners. He also claims the title of Chief Math. Shark, and especially delights in carrying around stock of books. He goes to Norwich. SHELIA KATHERINE McCARTHY “So light of foot, so blithe and gay.” Shiela is thinking of starting some chain-stores where she will be able to show her truly wonderful ability as a busi¬ ness woman. Doubtless her cheery smile and fairy footsteps will work marvels in attracting trade. In case she tires of said chain-stores Shiela is contemplating adding her presence to the Boston Art School this fall. THE EXPONENT 33 GIUSEPPE MARINI “Give me knowledge!” “Joe” is hardly ever seen without his smile, even in the darkest weather. He has a happy faculty of asking numerous questions thus keeping up the conversation in U. S. History class, and saving us the pain of those embarrassing silences. “Joe” has a strange liking for poetry and when he can spare the time from his music, devotes his attention to im¬ proving his poetic attempts. MARY PRUDENCE NIMS “Happy am I, from care I am free”. “Prude” is that nervous person who is always seen running around with a Boston bag filled witn huge books, worrying continually about her lessons ? ? It is generally un¬ derstood that Caeser is her dearest friend, and if it were not for the blank expressions now and then afforded the mem¬ bers of the French class there would be a tragic lack of en¬ tertainment. “Prude” has exceptionally good taste in select¬ ing her school of learning for next year. We want everyone to understand that the name of this worthy institution is Skidmore, Saratoga Springs, in the state of New iorX. MARY CATHERINE O’BRIEN “Graceful was her form, and slender” Whenever we come to a pinch Mary is right there. Whether with the needle and thread, tape measure, or safety pin, it is always for a good cause. She has also proved a success as collector of S. A. S. dues, to say nothing of her talent for drawing almost anything you could ask her. She intends to improve her abilities in this line at the Boston Art School. CELIA ETHEL PEASE “When one is in love, one not only says it but shows it.” Celia is one of our “golden-tongued” orators. She exhibit¬ ed her talent in that art last year in the Junior Prize Speak¬ ing Contest. If you should watch her study, or at least gaze into a book, you’d think she was intensely studying but she isn’t for her thoughts are far, far away. Then if you want to awaken her from her reverie just say the word “Bucket” and it will work like magic. Celia goes up to Tilton, N. H., with “the folks” after graduation. 34 THE EXPONENT ELIZABETH DORIS PECK “She’s little but she’s wise, She’s a terror for her size” “Pecky”, otherwise known as the teachers’ pet, is now said to be diligently applying herself to the difficult task of becoming the Valedictorian’s understudy. She shows a partiality to gay colors, especially Orange. She is often seen rambling along at a leisurely pace a la Stutz. She adds to the lively crew at Sargent next year. MARJORIE EMMA PHILLIPS “I love no mockings or arguments ; I witness and wait.” Marjorie has not been with us very long so she hasn’t had occasion to do much for the school, except to keep up the good name. In the short while she has been nere, though, she’s acquired many friends. Like the rest of us Marjorie is “madly in love” with History and Civics and I wouldn’t doubt if she became a second Miss Hamilton. ROBERT JAMES RIST “Every inch a man, to say nothing of his feet” “Rubit” is that long boy with the legs, who m spite of this fact is always seen creeping down the streaK—pardon— screaching down the creek—oh! here it is— streaking down the street at breakneck speed. His books have a way all their own of unexpectedly losing their balance and collapsing with a heavy bang upon the floor. We shudder to think of what the U. S. History class would do without the inspiration of his presence. Best luck for the future, Robert. BEATRICE DOROTHY ST. LAWRENCE “She has two eyes so soft and brown. Take care! Take care! She gives a side glance and looks down, Beware 1 Beware!” “Bee” is without doubt the class “vamp” (that is, both she and “Nita”) It would be quite thoughtless of us to mention one without the other. She says if she was to be in high school another year she would have her bed moved over here so she wouldn’t be late for school. “Bee” seems to be in¬ clined stageward, as you have undoubtedly noticed recesses, so watch the papers for an account of her debut as a fancy .dancer—in vaudeville. THE EXPONENT 35 ALICE CELIA SCOTT “She was of a gentle nature” Alice travels daily all the way from Whately to Greenfield thus proving her deep devotion to our school of learning. She charmed the audience last year as a Junior Prize Speaker, and has been a faithful member of the class of 1921. Alice goes to Middlebury next year. MARIAM EAMES SEVRENS “Sweet it is to have done the things one ought” Mariam comes to classes fresh as a daisy every morning, prepared to show the teachers “what’s what”. She is an active member of the Pro Merito Society and it is even said has never failed to pay her dues promptly. This remarkable young lady joins the ranks of worthies at Fitchburg normal this fall. MARJORIE ELOISE SHATTUCK “One vast, expansive smile, forever radiant” “Margie” came to us from Shelburne , Falls and she brought with her all the sunshine that place ever knew. Her demure ways have won her hosts of friends including “Bouty” but we wish he wouldn’t have such a monopoly on her. It isn’t fair! At the present time “Margie” is vacation¬ ing, but she will resume her duties in the music store this fall. HOMER NEWTON STAPLES “Beaut ' ful he was, and childlike.” “Stape” is that wide boy with the hungry appetite, and absent-minded look in his eyes. When he has time for earthly thoughts he sometimes startles the members of the U. S. History class with the amazing depth of his knowledge. ‘ Stape” loves to make goo-goo eyes, and adores fancy danc¬ ing, but admits that the mere thoughts of such evils as morning and afternoon naps, and pantries of all sorts, fairly make him shudder. We feel sure that “Stape” will show ’em some speed at Norwich. THE EXPONENT MILDRED AGNES STILES “To those who know thee not, no words can paint” And those who know thee, know all words are faint” “Mill” says she didn’t do a thing during her High School career, but nevertheless the school couldn’t exist without her. What would room 4 do without her quiet, gentle smile and her friendly, refined ways? We bet Marion Woodard would say it couldn’t be possible. Then again, who is there in this high school who can beat her record, not absent or tardy during the whole four years ? MABEL WILHELMINA SWEELEY “As merry as the day is long.” Mabel is the girl with the everlasting smile and good word for everybody, and it is really impossible to make her mad. She says: “What’s the use?” and if you think about it a bit you’ll realize it is so. Mabel is one of the commer¬ cial students who expect to go out into the world and help business interests. Good luck is assured her. HAROLD ANDREW TJARNELL “I compel all creatures to my will” Although Harold first entered our class this year he has al¬ ready helped along the cause in more ways than one. He is most fearfully savage while debating, his chief weapons in other war-fare consisting of the violin, ancl tennis racket. ANNA GRACE TURNER “A lover of books.” Behold, Anna Grace. G. H. S.’s famous authoress and photoplayer to be! We’ll all admit Grace can concoct almost any combination in the line of poetry and plots, having won prizes for some of these. Grace plans to continue this work, and who knows—she may turn out a Mary Roberts Rhine- hart or an Ethel Dell. THE EXPONENT 37 MILDRED AVERY WOODARD. “Nothing great was ever accomplished without effort’’ Mildred agrees with her sister about “the luck of being a twin.” She is very fond of stenography, in which art she is very speedy (?). However she does not intend to follow this as a profession for she goes to Boston to study for a nurse. MARION AVERY WOODARD. “The work under our labour grows, luxurious by restraint” Marion is the one that is not the other of the Woodard twins and she has been heard to say: “Oh what luck to be a twin!” Perhaps she is right for it must be annoying when you don’t get credit for what you do, and your sister gets it all. Marion has spent her four years in a very intense study of bookkeeping and stenography. CLARK ELBRIDGE WOODROW “God bless the man who first invented sleep” “Clarkie” has been with us all through high school and, although he has held no class offices he has acted as self- appointed advisor to all those who have. It’s a shame he didn’t go out for basketball before his senior year because if he had he would have been a “veritable genius”. Let us hope he doesn’t lose that ability which made him so famous when he goes away to Norwich. EDWARD READ ZEINER “We grant although he had much wit He was very shy of using it” “Ed.” has a hobby, that of wearing fancy collars and n eck¬ ties, and we wonder if this is what attracts the fair fresh¬ man damsels. “Ed.” said he would cast his vote for a “har¬ em” any day. We believe him, but it is funny that he can’t find enough of them in high school and has to go to the grammar school for them. He’s just informed us that his next will be picked from the kindergarten. FOOTBALL TEAM 1920 CAPT. BONNEVILLE Foot Ball 1920-21 CAPT.

ARMS 7, G. H. S. 6 Our trip to Arms produced a whale of a game, Arms coming out on the long end of a seven to six score. The game was a regular bat¬ tle all the way through, and it wasn’t won until the last man was out. Arms slipped the winning count across in the last half of the ninth. Powers hit the ball hard.
