Tennis and Latin have taken up quite a share of “lled’s” time, hut she has always managed to liave a good time wherever she went. If you hear a liearty laugh ring out along the corridor, you ' ll know it’s “Red,” and if you look closely you will see mischief in her eye. In whatever she undertakes we know she will be a success. fl.H.8. wishes her the greatest luck and hapi)iness! Elsie Frances Allen “El” “There is none like her, none.

Queen Elsie has smiled her way into the hearts of all who know her. Because of her cheerfulness, she has made many friends in her four years in (I. H. 8. Lately you never see Elsie without “Johnnie.” Vherever there is fun to be hail, you will always find these two inseparable jials. “Fd” has also found time for ba. ketball. Journalism, band, and countless other things. Why, she was even mother-in-law in a Dramatic Club jilay! She is G.H.S.’s own (pieen. Mary Louise Allen “Weezy” “7 like fun iind I like jokes ’Bout ns well ns most the folks.” Honor Roll (1), (2), (3), (4); Pro Merito; Year Book Staff; Science Club (4); Clerk of Student Council (3); Band (2). (3), (4). Brilliant! That adjective liescribes our “Weezy” to a “T.” If we ever wanted any aid in some difficult ])roblem, she was always there with her ever-ready help. However, her friends know of two of her great weaknesses — jokes and chemistry. FIven though she has si)ent a lot of time with her books, “Weezy” has thoroughly enjoyed her High School life. M.S.C. welcomes her next year. All the success in the world, Alary Louise. Madelyn Gertrude Ashley She is gentle; she is shy.” Captain Class Team (3); A’ear Book Staff (4); “Pinafore” (3); (4); Debating Club (4); Cheer Leader (3), (4). i O ' bis Secri ' tary Scic ' uce Club “Sis,” the tiny girl with the disarming smile, has been with us only three years, but in that time all who know her ha ' e grown to lo e her. “Sis” was one of the clu ' er leaders who won for us the cheering cuf) at the fair. Both the Science Club and the Debating Club claim her as a member. Wherever she goes, we know she will meet with nothing but success. Lois Louise Atchcrson “Lou” “A few plnin strong instincts. A few plnin rules.” Spanish Club (4); Archery Club (4). Lois, our own FJla Cinders! All through their four years Lois and Esther have been inseparable, and whenever there were sports to be enjoyed, there you coidd find them. Lois was a member of the Spanish Club, and usually could be dei)ended uiion to have her lessons completed. Her plans for the future are undecideil, but we wish her the greatest luck! 15 Elizabeth Helen Attesi “Life is not so short J)nt that there is always time enough for courtesy.” Awards on Royal and Reiniiifiton; Commercial Chib (4); Glee Club (1), (2). Elizabeth Helen Attesi is that dark-haired girl whom we hear so much about but never see. She is active in commercial activities and is ambitious for a future in com¬ mercial work. Elizabeth is very studious and will succeed in any task that she under¬ takes. all wish her great success. Willard Emerson Ballou ‘ Shrimp lie that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast.” Pro Merito; Ba.sketball (3), (4); INIanager of Football; ' Baseball (4); Treasurer (3); ’ice-l)resident (4); Hi-Y (2), (3), President Hi-Y (4); Student Council (4); Year Book Staff; Senior Dance Committee. Y ' illard Ballou, otherwise known to his friends as “Shrini])” because of his height, has been active in school affairs ever since he entered High School. As jiresident of the Student Council lie brought the year to a successful close. “Shrim])” has also been active in athletics, and has saved many a day for G.H.S. He is planning a higher education, and with him go our l)est wishes for success. Hester Barker Hes” “A )nerry heart doetli good like a medicime.” Typewriting Awards on Royal and Remington Typewriters (4); Commercial Club (4). He.ster Barker is that fair Senior who prt)ffered a helping hand whenever there was any work to be done in the Commercial Class. She is fond of school and has scarcely missed a day since entering. Hester is a member of the Commercial Club and has taken part in its activities. We wish her the best of luck m the future.

Syncopators (4); Dramatic Club (3), (4); Hi-Y C ' lub (4); TTxponent — Features (3), (4); Sports (3), U); Associate Editor of Year Book (4); “Rear (kir” (3); “All-of-a-Sudden Peggy” (4); “The Boob” (4); “Pei ita” (4). “Dave” has worked hard to advertise many jdays and has often made us laugh with his skits. He is also famous for his column. Hoarse Laffs, which is known far and wide. Bf ' cause of his .sunny disposition he has made many friends, among whom a fair Junior stands (juitc ' high. We know he will .succeed in any undertaking, so we wish him the best of luck. Kathryn Harriet Battey Kay I nto the })urc all things are pure.” ( ' dee Chit) (1). “Kay” is always around wlnm we need help esiiecially with cakes for the Senior dance ' s. She is seldom heard, but we always take notice of her F)ecause of her smile. She has mad(‘ many friends among us and wo know . ;he will succeed. Hair-dressing seems to be her future career, and we know that she will secure tlie trade of the Senior class. 16 ' ‘Bill” William Baxter, Jr. “It is (I poor sjxirt (hat is not n ' orth the candle.” Hand (3). (4); Science (1), (2), (3); Athletics, Bicycle Race (4). “Hill” is one of the quietest members of our class and iiarticipates in only a few of our activities because he makes his home in North Leverett. He likes siiorts and ho])es to continue to ])articipate in athletics. The girls of Cf.H.S. admire him because of his curlj- hair, so beware “Ifill” or girls will be your downfall in the future. Anna Judyth Bernstein Anna “The rainbow co7nes and goes, And lovely is the rose.” Ih-o Merito; Dramatic Club (4); Science Club (4); Latin ( lub (4); (ilee Club (1); Debating Club (4); Senior Play, “All-of-a-Sudden Peggy” (4). Anna’s first three years in high school didn’t give anyone much chance to really know her. In that short time she was only a rose-bud. In her Senior year she became a fully blossomed rose. Her sweet smile and charming manners have made her many friends and admirers. Our best wishes foi ' success go with you always, Anna! Zelda Elizabeth Bernstein Zelda “Patience is a virtue.” Si)anish Club (2); Commercial Club (4); Glee Club (4). Zelda is that (piiet Senior who works hard ami seldom comi)lains of her work. She has been patient and faithful, and has many friends and manages to keep them. She is well-liked by all who know her. G. H.S. wishes her the best of luck and success wherever she may go ami in whatever she undertakes. Leonard Raymond Berry Len” “To he trusted is a greater coniplinient than to be loved.” In the past few years “Len” has been seen almost entirely in the comijaii}- of a little blonde girl. They have become familiar figures in and about school, and they always seem to have so much to talk about. Besides being “Til’s” constant companion and a conscientious worker, Leonard is everyone’s friend. The class of ’31 wishes him the best of luck. Mary Isabelle Berry “Scotty” “How much lies in laughter?” ' I ' ypewriting Awards. Mary Berry has come to us for four years from Millers Falls. Mary seems to have magic in her fingers from the looks of her typing records. She is very popular among her clas.-jmates. and is very active in dancing, driving, swimming, and tennis. She finds (.Jreenfield rather attractive. 17 William Douglass Blake “There is a friend tJinl slickeih closer tloni n brother.” Track (2), (4); (Center) Football (3), (4); Basketball Manager (4); Year Book Staff (4); Book-Week Plav (4); Dramatic Chib (4); Hi-Y Club (3), (4); President of French Club (4); Orchestra ' (1), (2), (3) ; Public Speaking Contest (3); Senior Dance Com¬ mittee; Student Council. Somebody ought to aiipoint “Bill” official jester of the Senior Class. He knows more about jokes than all the rest of ’31 put together, and he has managed to keep the class in hysterics almost all the time. There is al.so a serious side to “Bill. He has been promi¬ nent in the musical acti ' ities of the school as well as in athletics and Hi- Club. He is a cheerful and oiitimistic little volume of jokes. “Bill” plans to atteaid Maine University next year and take up forestry and we know the country will be overgrown with trees in a few years. Minnie Block ‘Min ' “Few things arc impo.s.dblc to diligence and skill.” Editor-in-chief of Exponent (4); Editor-in-chief of Year Book (4); Dramatic Club (2), (3) , (4); French Club (1), (3), (4); Glee Club (1); Debating Club (4); Student Council (4) ; Silver G. (4). Minnie’s four years in G.H. S. have not been spent in vain. She is one of our most jolly members. But for her skillful work what would have become of our “Exponent”? And how she always iilanned for those conventions! Fun, weren’t they? By winning a newsiiapcr contest she added once more to her laurels. Besides all these acti ities, Minnie has kejit her scholanshi]) in ranking with the highi ' st. Lots of luck next year, Minnie. -H Sheldon Pratt Bliss “Shelly “The 7ioblcst mind the best contentment has.” Year Book Staff (4): Student Council (1). (4); Vice-president (4); President of Freshman ( ' lass; Orchestra (School and As.semhly) (1), (2), (3).

What of importance for the good of the school has happened that “Shelly” hasn’t had something to do with? The answer is almost nothing. If something needs an efficient manager, or if some important committee needs a chairman “Shelly ’ is the one to till the jiosition. He has m t been too busy however, to neglect the attrac¬ tion in the office. G. H.S. wishes him as great success in his future undertakings as he has had the past four years. Helen Phoebe Bonneville “Bonnie” “A good reputation is more vrdmdde than -money:’ (’ertificate on Itemington (2); Certificate on Poyal (3); Class Basketball (D, (2), (3); Commercial Club (4). “Bonnie” is one of the poi)ular .short ])eoi)le in the class of ’31. She is ])robabl3’ best known for lu ' r auburn haii- and cheery smile. Many i)eoi)le know how she is always heli)ing to brighten up her surroundings. Does she know her teeth? She spends her spare tinu ' in a dentist’s ottice. Don’t you lo ( ' the sound of that diill “Bonnie”? G. H.S. wisln ' s you the best of luck in the future. Ernestine Frances Bostley “Patience is a remedy for every sorrow.” Ernie” Honor Roll; C’ertificate on L. C. Smith (2); ( ' ertificate on Underwood (3); Certificate on Roval (3); Certificate on Remington (3); C’la.ss Basketball (3); Commercial C ' lub (4); (ilee C ' lub (1), (2), (3), (4). “Ernie” is one of the real brunette ' s of the cla. is, and .die has her share of friends. Ha e you heard her jilay the jiiano? She certainly knows her music. Her typing ability has won (piite a jilace for her in thi ' commercial dejiartment. . side from her scliool work and outside acti ities she has worked with “E ” in the office. hatever you do “Johnnie” John Griswold Bouker “The fdeep of a I(ihori)tg man is ftu ' cet.” Pro Morito (4); Football (3). (4); Basketball (3), (4); Vice-president of Class (3); Hi-Y (3), (4); French Chib (1), (4). Here he is! Who hasn’t heard or known of onr ‘“Johnnie”? He is that tall broad- shouldered, (piiet yet witty person, who did such splendid work on the football team. His pals are many and he always manafies to keej) them laughing. John is always in evidence at the Senior jiarties with his “inspiration.” and just ask him sometime if he knows how to back a car into a fire hydrant. The best of luck at Deerfield, “Johnnie.” John Joseph Bowe “Happy am I; from care am 1 free “Jack ' Football (2), (3), (4); All Valley Bight End (4); All County Right End (3), (4). “Jack” is that big stra])])ing “soda jerker” who helped firing the football team through many ictories. esjx ' cially those Turni ' rs’ games, ’hat would w( ' do without that broad grin and those snappy remarks? I ' hen wo must add those “storm windows” and the manner which they attracted the “femmes.” “Jack” always manages to get his beauty sleep, which perhajts exphiins his fretpient isits to the office alter S:10 a.in. His abili¬ ties, however, are convincing, and we know he will be a great sticcess. Dorothy Norma Braff “Dotty” “He glad aad your friends are many.” Commercial Club (1), (4); Dramatic Clttb (2), (3), (4); Remington and Royal Tyjie- writing .Vwards; E.xpoiu ' iit (4); Book-Week Ifiay (4). “Dot” is one of those girls who has the faculty of looking nice in whatever she wears. She makes scori ' s of fi-imuls and always keeps their friendship. She has a well known dramatic ability. She has always been one of the foremost members of the Commercial (dub. Wherever she may go, (l.H.S. wishes her the best of luck and success. Ruth Harriet Breslin “Ruthie” “How near la good is iclt(d is fair!” Tyiiewriting Awards, Remington and Royal (4). Ruth comes from Millers lAills .so she ha.sn’t had much time for school activities. She is that special friend of Mary Beny’s and where you see one you will u.sually find the other. Ruth has many friends among the .students of C.H.S. in spite of the fact that she was a total strangei’ foui ' years ago. Walter John Broughan, Jr. Walter “So p(dienl, peaceful, loyal, loving, pure.” Ifa.sketball (2); Science C ' lub (2). We have had Walter in our mid.st for four years, but have hardly known the fact because he is .so (piiet. . s a member of Room 14 he has been carrii ' d along by the activitii ' s of the cla.ss of ' 31 and has helped in his own way, even if we haven’t known or recogniz( ' d him. He is girl-shy, but perhai)s the future will tell the story. f Katherine Frances Bullette “Kay” ‘‘Wisdom is better than rubies.” Honor Roll; Pro Morito; TypewritiuK Awards; “l inafon ' ”; Coininorcial Clul) (2), (4), President (4); Glee Cluh (3), (4); Dramatic Club (4); Pul)lic Speaking Contest. “Kay” is that little girl with that twinkle in her eye and ready smile for everyone. There is something about her that attracts people. She never gets excited and when she starts talking everyone ])ays attention, for “Kay” always has something interesting to say. She is an ambitious little iierson, for she has not only stood high in her studies, but has sjient some of her spare hours at Carson’s. She also likes big cars, especially when that certain “somebody” from Turners Falls is at the wheel. We wish you luck in whatever vou undertake, “Kay.” Margaret Mary Bulman “Knowledge is power” Honor Roll ; Spanish Club (2), (4) ; Dramatic Club (3), (4) ; Book-4 ' eek Play (4) ; Latin Club (4); ’ice-jirc ' sident of Spanish Club (4); Pi’o Merito. Margaret Rulman has been a studious member of the class of ’31. Her college friends have kc])! her so busy outside of school hours that we haven ’t seen much of her. She has been, however, a faithful member of the Dramatic Club. She has been a helpful, willing, and efficient member of the class. “Peg” has chosen Smith College for further study, and we wish her success there. Stanley Hobart Burgess “Stan” “The crest and erotening of edl good, Life ' s final star, is brotherhood.” Hi-Y (4). Who’s the cpiiet little boy in Room 14, who barely lets his existence become known? “Stan” has not been very active in his Higli School career, but is noted for his witty remarks. “Stan” says he enjoys history class. Perhaps he will take up history after graduation but whatever he does, here’s luck. Harold Edward Burke “Hatty” “He was ever preeise in promise-keeping.” Football (3). Harold is better known by his nickname, “Harry.” He is short, but very broad- shouhh ' red. The. e give a suggestion of the strength which we know is there, — ask any of his football mates wlam he tackles them in a practice session. “Harry” is very popu¬ lar— a.sk his many fiiends. Y ' e wish “Harry” the best of luck and hope that he will never forged his friemds in (l.H,.S. Esmonde Joseph Bushey “Essy” “Play ' up, play up, and play the game.” Honor Roll (1), (4); Hockey (1), (2), (3), (4); Baseball, Junior Varsity (2), (3); Foot¬ ball (3), (4); Cla. s Basketball (1), (2), (3), (4); (lolf (3), (’ai)tain (4); Member of Year Book Staff. “I ' Ssy” is that tall, stalwart lad who plays football and hockc ' y. He stride ' s through the corridors with jeantln ' r-like ea.se that reminds one of an Indian. He is admired and liked by everyone for his charming personality and the ability to make life-long friends, e are .sure that “Fssy” will be a success wherever lie goes, and (I. H. S. wishes him luck. 20 John Dinsmore Caldwell ‘Johnnie” ‘Truth is precious and diviuc.’’ Ilockoy ManitKPr (2); Journalism (2), (3); Rand (1), (2), (3), (4); Orclipstra (1); A.ssoml)ly Orchestra (1); Science Club (1). “Johnnic ' ” is that tall, bashful blond that everyone likes so well. “Johnnie” could ])oso for the fa. ' hion-]ilate, of what, the well-dressed man will wear. He is carefree and a very easy-goiiifi chap, with a pleasing i)ersonality and the faculty of making friends easily. We hope that he will never forget the friends that he has made in G.H.S. We wish “Johnnic ' ” succe.ss and the best of luck. Roberta CarpenteT 3 “Bert” “So sweet the blush oj hnshfiducss. Honor Roll (1), (2), (3); Girls’Basketball (2); Commercial Club (1). (2), (3), (4). “Bobbie” is that little blonde girl who has been so iirominent in tlu ' acti ' ities spon¬ sored by the Commercial Club. She is admired and liked by everyone. She has “It” in the form of a charming personality. She is the spirit of neatness itself. G.H.S. knows that such a little miss will be a success wl) rcver she may go, and we wish her the Ix ' st of luck. . _. -x Vn Ina Charlotte Carroll Ina “Virtue is like u rich, stone — best jdniii set.” Ina is that tall, blonde girl who is so quiet. She is well known on account of her various activities with the Salvation Army, having been a iirominent member of this organization for a gi ' eat many years. Wherever she may go and whatever s he may do, we hope that she will never forget G.H.S. We heartily wish her success and luck in whatever she may mulertake. “And ichat she (ireatly thouyht, she nobly dared.” Honor Roll (1); ICxponent (3); “Rear Car” (3); “Ikdle of Barcelona”; Dance Com¬ mittee (4); Band (2), (3), (4); Dramatic Club (3), (4); Glee C’lub (1), (2), (3), (4). Did you ever see Loui. ' e when she wa. n’t enjoying herself? Of counsc ' not. She is one of those persons who have the happy faculty of making things lively for lu ' rself and for others. Louise and her little Ford have become quite a figure around G. H.S. Often on these excursions a certain alumnus is seated at her side. But, besides thoroughly en¬ joying hersc ' lf, she has done much for her school and her cla.ss. She belongs to the Dramatic Club and has disjilayed great talent. Louise has been the spirited drum major of our High School Band for three j’ears. Oh! what would we do without Louise? Evelyn Louise Causebrook “Tote” Honor Roll; Commercial Chib (1); Spanish Club (2). .Anna is a person about whom everyone .says “.she’s one peach of a girl.” e wi.sh there were more ju.st like her. That Anna belongs to our studious group is shown by the appearance of her name on the Honor Roll. She is especially interested in Com¬ mercial subjects and Spanish. e might add that with her dark hair one coukl almost mistake her for a Spanish Senorita. Anna has not yet decided what she will do next j’car, but our best wishes go with her. ‘Ann Anna Lucille Cavanaugh ‘Her looks were like a flower in May. Her smile was like a sumrner moon.” 21 Ellen Grace Chiz Ellen “A smile for all, a u ' clrome ( lad, .1 jovial coaxing u ' ay she had.” Remington Award (3); Commercial Clul) (2), (4). Ellen is that shy little girl who very much enjoys Commercial subjects, hnt she has her good times — what say, Ellen? tShe always has a pleasant gn’cting for everyone, and we will certainly miss her snnny smile. In her .Junior year Ellen was a “sub” on the Girls’ Varsity Basketball team. We know that she was an exceptional forward, inaking wonderful shots. 8he is planning to work next year, and we know that she will be as successful as she has been in G. H. tS. Everett Le Roy Choiniere Everett “Wit is the s(dt of conversation.” Archery Club (4); Science Club (4) ; Orchestra (1 , (2), (3), (4) ; Band (1), (2), (3), (4); Assemblv Orchestra (3), (4); Glee Club (1), (2), (3), (4); Hi-Y (4); “Pepita,” operetta (4). AVe all know Everett by his witty sayings and his love for music. He has belonged to the band and orchestra for his four High School years. These musical organizations will have to learn to get on without him, and it will be hard to find someone to replace him.

She proved her dramatic ability when she played the role of Peggy in the Senior Plaj’, “All-of-a-Sudden Peggy.” Often is she seen accompanied by a young man, formerly of G.

The one boy on whom we can depend to make classes interesting is “Lee.” He is very clever and witty in his sayings and always brings up some enjoyable subject for class discussion. When we have oral topics we all await “Lee’s” eagerly, for he is sure to talk the whole i)eriod and be so entertaining that the teacher likes it ami does not think to tell him to stoj). “Lee” enjoys dramatics and has taken part in many plays and also in the Junior Prize Si)eaking.

Everybody knows and likes her and she is one of the big reasons for the success of the Exiionent. We can’t see how she can help but be a big success in life with a personality like that.

When Stanley is around the air fairly snaps with wisecracks and sarcasm. It isn’t so much what he says, but the way he says it, that has helped to while away many a period of some dreaded class a little less boringly. Perhajis it is this ready wit that has made him .so popular in his .school life. Although he has spent many of his waking hours in the floral business, his studies have not been affected, as he is the jiresident of the Pro Merito Society. Northeastern claims him next year, and we know Lady Luck will be with him in whatever he undertakes. Russell Elwin Hawley ”Russ” “Deeds, not words.” “Russ” seems to derive fun from almost anything.

One has only to enter the office to realize that business is busine.ss to her. Because of this you cannot realize what a good sport she is. She is also a good athlete, for she jdays tennis like a professional, and is the giil temnis star of the High School. If she shows the same characteristics after leaving High School, we c;in be .sure .she will be a great success.

Paul Frederick Schrader Paul “The thoroughly great are those who do everything thoroughly.” Honor Roll (2), (3); Typewriting Awartis (3), (4). Paul is that very, very (luiet lad with the dark hair and nice comi)lexion. Maybe the reason why he is so (puet is that he may accomidish .something. In fact we know it is, because he was on the honor roll, and who dares question his ability with the tyjiewriter? 41 I ' ly James Francis Sheehan ‘Jimmie” “Everyone cannot help but like this chap.” We find mixed witli Jimmie’s virtues, sevend weaknesses — Chemistry, Englisli, History, and girls.

Furthermore, she extracts a great deal of ])leasure from her work, which is an art in itself. She has made her English chnss more enjoyalJe by her originality, and this ti’ait seems to make itself evident in all her activities. It is a steiijung stone to success, and the class of ’31 sends their best wishes along with Marion to AIa.ssachusetts State.

Here’s a versatile youth! Just look at that list of activities! But “Ed” is a big boy — he needs a big list. Whenever you hear a big noise, whether it’s on the athletic field, in the band or orchestra, or even, we fear, in the classroom, “Tait” will be there. “Ed” is always going j)laces and doing things, but through it all, ho has made the honor roll every j-ear.

It will be my privilege and jileasure to introduce to yon my various classmates who will address yon this afternoon. Among these are some who have attained remarkably high scholas¬ tic standing during their high school careers, the hdedictorian and the Salutatorian; others who have been chosen by popular vote by their class¬ mates; and still others who have been chosen by the members of the faculty. Classmates: Four years ago we entered this school as Fresh¬ men, being acciuainted with comparatively few of our classmates and members of tlie faculty. The ways of the school were strange to us and for a time we wandered along, giving most of our atten¬ tion to studying. As the years have passed we have made numerous acciuaintances through our social and scholastic relationshi])s. Many have ventured into athletic, musical, commercial and various other phases of school work, and in all associations have made numerous friendships which will never be entirely forgotten. Those who have earnestly and conscientiously endeavored to do their best have, received credit through awards and honors. Ntnv we are about to leave these hap])y scenes and acc}uaintances to plunge into fields of wide¬ spread activities. However, we should strive incessantly to attain success in Life, constantly apjilying the knowledge we have gained from our high school careers. A ’hen years have ])assed and high achievements have been reached, we may look back with no small iilcasurc and happiness upon these friendships we now enjoy. May we all be successful, and in onr activities never fail to ajijily the motto which has, thus far, helped us so much and is well worth remembering; Loyalty, Honor, and Scholarship. Kenneth B.

To all of you who hav(‘ encouraged us to continue in si)ite of the failures we have encounterc ' d, we extend a cordial greeting. Making The American Flag One ' s Own Every citizen of the United States has the right to call the Stars and Stripes his own. The flag is the glory of the Republic. It distinguishes the United States of America from other countries whose flags arouse the same patriotic feelings in their citizens as the Red, Wdiite, and Blue dot ' s in Americans. America has two types of citizens who owe allegiance to its flag — the native ' and the foreign born. The native Ijorn citizt ' ii, unlike the foreign l)orn, does not have to adopt new ideas or new ways of living to own his flag. It is his by birth. 50 and as Ik ])asses from one stage of life to another, he is being taught tlie Anu ' riean ideals and all that hel])s to make him a creditable citizen of his country through careful home-training and einuronments. The foreign born citizen has an immense task to comi)lete before he may rightfully obtain citizen- shi]). He leaves his native shore and the flag he was taught to obey. lie may come for a change of climate for his poor health. Becoming attached to America the Beautiful he decides to remain and obtain citizenship. Or the lust for adventure may lure him into this vast land of various thrills and excitements in the blast, West, North, or South. Or, finally, as is most frccpiently the case, hard conditions at home fill him with the desire of coming to the land of opi)ortunity generously laid oi)en foi’ such as he. When he first reaches the alluring shores of longed-for America, he i.s some¬ what stunned by the confusion of things. The voyage itself has been wearing, and the twenty- four hour stay at Kllis Island was sufficient to drive him to despair. Only his unwavering hope of a promising future can keep him from retracing his course across the ocean. hA ' entually he is here safe and sound — and satisfied — in a strange land struggling with a strange language. It is an arduous task for him to learn a new language when he is beyond school age. But even so, a child can have his difficulties. ' hen I was learning the Mnglish language, I made (piite a serious mistake in relating an incident. Instead of saying “I got lost,” I said, ‘T went wild.” Now, I can laugh at my error, but then 1 could not see it. Nevertheless, it is amazing in how short a time the foreigner can learn to s])eak Hnglish. Of course, to accomplish this he must devote his heart and mind not only to the lan¬ guage, but to the manners and customs as well. A year spent thus will make him feel almost secure as to his manners and si)eech. By this time the foreigner is beginning lO l)rosper. Now it would be very easy for him to forget to thank someone for his happiness and success within reach. To whom must he turn with gratitude? To his benefactress, the United States of America. Here is the test of what kind of citi¬ zen he will become, (ienerous America ])ut him on his feet. In return he owes her a debt that he can never half I ' epay. But, what lie C(tn do is to giv( ' ardently life-long seiadce to his adopted country that so libei ' ally helped him. By this time he has obtained his citizenshij) which means more to him than anything else in the world. It is not like an award he has worked for, and ends there ' , but it is a symbol of what he is to do hereafter, to call himself rightfully a citizen of the United States of America. From now on he may take his stand beside the native born citizen and work hand in hand with him. The same flag now protects them both. No one who has not had a similar exix ' rience can know what that means, ’e foreign l:orn feel that we have accomplished the grc ' atest thing when (‘ach one of us may take his rightful stand by an e(|ual, ardent American born citizen and fei ' vently say, ”T ])ledgc ' allegiance to my flag.” EliZdheOt Miirie Mdi nard 51 The Art of Reading W HF.X the sul)ject of reading is jn’offered the (juestion freciiiently arises Why do I read?” If I were to si)eak of the many attitudes of the many readers toward reading, I should talk for many hours, sinee there are just as many attitudes as there are readers. Some I ' ead to learn. They ap]n-oaeh a book from the standpoint of study, while others read lor amusement and consider a hook an enjoyal)le p;istime. ddierc are those who read to experience new fields ot life and to let their imaginations wander about in limitless regions. Some read to be drawn nearer reality in life, while others read because they have a dec}) curiosity about human nature, its habits, and customs. Again there are those who read simply to sec what various conclu¬ sions they can draw from the novel, poem, iday, or essay, as the case may be, and often these ideas are entirely different from those which the author had in mind. Some read for the action and others lor the thoughts introduced. Finally, some read simply because they feel they must have an outlet lor their taut nerves and deem reading a necessity. ()1 the last type was Francis Bacon, who evi¬ dently considered reading as essential as eating, loi ' he is (juoted as saying, “Some books are to be tasted, othia ' s to be swallowed and some few are to be chewed and digested.” In my opinion these should be th(‘ three i)redominating standards of I ' cading; to taste, which represents the deduction ol the lu’ime 1 actors of a story or book, to swallow, which r( ' pr(‘s(‘nts the realization of the true worth ol any type ol litc ' ratiire, and to ( hew and digest, r(‘pr( ' senting the det ' p study of literary works, which is not so common a mode as the first two. However, it is just as essential a mode to i)ractice for it is this type which dev(“lops furtlu ' r the study of history, biology, cluanistry and of many other science ' s, and often i)oetry. Lc ' t us take tlu ' world-renowiu ' d story of “Litth ' Red Riding Hood.” AVhen, as children we re ' ad this fable, wv accejit it at its literal worth, that is, we do not study the implied lessons of the story but simply consider the state l facts of the narrati ' ( ' . laiter in life we realize what dange ' rs the wolf represents as he blocks the ]‘)ath of the inne)cent e)ne, and we can easily discover the me)ral e)f the tale. This represents the idea e)f tasting literature, fe)r the child does ne)t detect the im- ])lied teachings in the story, but gleans the facts only. When the Freshmen enter High School, among the first literary compositions they attack is Silas IMarner” by Cleorge Eliot. They select the complications, the rising and falling actions, the climax and the outcome. This work illustrates swallowing the context of the liook. As these underclassmen advance, they swallow more and more knowledge until, when they join the dignified rank in the fourth year of their High School career, they begin to chew and digest liter¬ ary brain food. During their Senior year tliey have to chew and chew hard when they liegin to study history, chemistry, and ])arts of English such as the conpiounded philosophy and imagina¬ tion in IMaclieth” and the arguments of Burke in his siieech on Conciliation with the Colonies.” However, there are few Seniors who can boast of actually digesting evei ' y jiarticle of these books no matter how hard they use their mental molars. In choosing the food for our literary diet, we naturally choose that which is most ])leasing to our individual palates, and from the many appetizing types of literature each one of us should be able to select one which suits his own taste. There is the novel for those among us who enjoy the lighter side of life, the essay and oration for those who enjoy reading about ideas and thoughts of others, th( ' biography and autobiography for those who delight in tlu ' (h ' eds, hardships and triumphs of noted ])ersonages, the drama for those who enjoy actors and acting, the poem for those who delve in rhythm and rhynu ' , and lastly, travel and history, especially that of our own Fnited States of Anu ' rica which, all of us have to admit, we are interested in. Of all the types of literature the novel is, by fai ' , the oldest and most poi)ular. As far back as the days of ])i ' ehistoi ' ic man, there was such a thing as a novi ' h Of conrsc , it wasn’t printed, but aftei- each and overy hunt or adventure, these ancient men p;atli( ' red around the fire and list(‘ned to tlie most imaginative, most impressive and most tlirilling speaker of the tril)e, as he told of tlu ' experiences with the wild beasts or with their bar¬ baric enemies. Always these stories had their hero, and it wasn’t long before some of the men began to jiaint these hai)penings on rocks and in caves where they could be easily seen and dis- cei’ued. Thus the novel began. Almost everyone knows what a short story is and how popular it has become in the last few years in our great magazine ])ublications. Terhaps it will interest you to know that there are about one thousand stories wi ' itten each month, making twelve thousand per year. Of these, eleven thou¬ sand eight hundred are, perhai)s, not worthy of l)ublication; yet there is some teaching in each one, for as it has often been said, the i)oorest of stories is like a leaky boat on a lake of wisdom, for through the chinks, learning is bound to seep. Another important tyi)e of literature is biog¬ raphy, which has become extremely poi)ular the last few years. Biograi)hy is a i)ersonality revealer. It minutely describes the subject’s characteristics, ideas, deeds, and habits; it criti- ci.ses as well as praises and, as Robert Hall has well expressed, “Of all the species of literary composition perhaps biograi)hy is the most delight¬ ful. In no other kind of writing are we ])ermitted to scrutinize the character so exactly, or to form so just and accurate an estimate of the excellences and defects, the lights and shades, the blemishes and beauties of an individual.” Poetry, or word-music, l)egan in the Pelasgic ages with sacred hymns, festal odes, and heroic legends. To gain favor with the gods, bards were engaged to sing at all affairs, whether religious or gala, and by insihring his listeners toward religion and warfare, the bard i)roved himself a true poet. It is this same feeling of inspiring enthusiasm in their readers that influences the modern ]K)ets such as Edgar Lee Masters, C ' hristoplu ' r Moiiey and Edgar A. (luest to write about the material things in life and those nearest and dearest to the modern individual. Not ' only do the mentioned types of literature appeal to our natures, but they offer much that many of us could never receive other than through reading. Through our reading we obtain a knowledge of the world and its i)eople from the countries in the far east to those in the western hemisphere and from one pole to the other. M ' e learn of the hap- ])enings, the history, and habits of these regions and peoples. W ' q learn of the advancement of mankind from the beginning of time, down through the ages to the present day. We are given various outlooks on life; we are offered better under¬ standing of human nature, and we are helped to see the beauty in the comnu)n things in life; our vocabularies are enlarged, and abo ' e all we are aided in mastering our native tongue with its peculiarities in si)elling and its many idioms. Due to the training received in the grammar and high schools, we American boys and girls are very well prepared to appreciate good reading and good literature. That we, through-out our lives, may live up to this high standard let us heed well the teachings of these two famous and frcHpiently (pioted sayings, “Books are teachers whose instruc¬ tions arc unaccompanied by blows or harsh words, and who demand neither food nor wages. You visit them, and they are alert; if you want them, they do not secret themselves; noi- do they ridicule your ignorance, be it ever so gross,” by le Bury, and the anonymous saying, “Books arc keys to wisdom ' s treasui ' es. Books are keys to lands of ])leasures. Books are paths that ujnvard lead. Books are friends. Come I.et Us Read.” JUith A.

JlIsN Robert Burns i)eniie(l those words for the first time, lie gave the world a me ' sage which has since been set to music and sung in every land under the sun. He renewed the message which was uttered on Calvary’s heights over one thousand nine hundred years ago — the message which is in every heart — the message of love! Yet, in onr life today we sometimes forget the ideals of love, consideration and kindness which our mothers and our grandmothers taught us but a short time ago. AW ' rush ou in our busy way and cause many needless ]iains and hurts when a little thought could have made us happy the whole day long and saved some one else a hurt which, jier- haps, will never be forgotten. If anyone were to ask you what you thought of a man or woman who wonld overlook a chance to save a man from drowning or bleeding to death, you would immediately say that he was a coward, i person liereft of sense oi ' a heartless wretch. Yet e ’ery day you shun opportunity after opportunity to help someone else carry his burden. Every day you no doubt pass some old man or young child, as you go to your office or store, whom you never saluti ' or recognize. I wonder if all the heartless wretches or insanely proud people are to be found in tlu ' group who deliberately refuse to aid a drowning man? In France there are a gix ' at many graves of the boys who never came back--tlK‘ giaives of those who di( ' (l that you and I might be hei ' e on this day to celebi-at( ' the completion of the high school edu¬ cation of another group. Here, today, there are no doubt many who have a close fi ' icmd, a brother, a sisti ' r, or a fatlu ' r in those graves. Ikaffiaps even now yon can see him as he was when he answered tlu ' call of (lod and of country —hc ' in his khaki snit, carrying his Springfield and marching along so pi ' ondly with those millions of other young men who fought and dic ' d in tlu ' last war in order that libei ' ty might rc ' ign over all: she in hei’ immaculate white uniform that, yon dear mothers, helped her make; that nniform with the little red cross — the symbol of sisterly kindness — going out to the ship which was to take her to the scenes of suffering and death — to the scene which took her away from you. Aren’t yon glad to know that France is willingly keeping those graves in the best of con¬ dition as an act of gratitude and kindness toward those who did so much for her? Do you feel grate¬ ful for that act of love which a foreign nation is rendering to yonr loved ones? Judge Leon iMcCord tells of his old friend who was also a .iudge. He says that one day this other man and hc went down to watch some men salvage the driftwood which was borne along the swollen iMississippi. ’hile watching, his companion said, “This is the duty of everyone — to save drift¬ wood.” However, this .iudge did not waste his words on theories or ideals, but put to ])ractice what hc believed. Thus it was that, when a young- man who had been committed to a penitentiary for some felony, pleaded for a parole in order that hc might enter this last great war, he was granted his recpiest. Before the ex-comdet came back, the old judge had gone to the (Ireat Beyond. How- evei ' , this boy came back and thanked Judge McCord as the representative and fi ' iend of this now-dead exemi)lar of charity. Judge McC. ' ord says that when hc looked at the clean, straight, healthy boy with the stripe for being wounded and a medal for bravery he thought of his dead friend and realized that his ])rotestations against this ])arolc had been wrong — that the “salvager of driftwood” had known best when he gave that boy a chance. Then the Judge asks a (luestion which could be asked in Creenfield as well as in any other j)lace: “Do we try to save driftwood?” Are we thoughtful of others?” At the Hi- ' Convention in Lynn last Decem¬ ber a man, who had traveled a great deal, told this story — the story of the kindiu ' ss of one real man to another. An old Indian Witch-Doctor had been asked if his medicine always worked — if it was omnipotent. J ' he reply had been in the negative, and the old Indian had told how he once carried an Indian companion to a little town but a short 400 54 iilik ' s away and how by this act the life of his eoini)anion had been saved by the prompt action of th( ' white doctor stationed there. Mien asked if lie realized how far he had carried his friend, he replied: “flow far? Me no know. l Ie know he was my friend.” When you think of the fact that his frii ' nd’s life was saved, do you think that act of kindness was to no avail? In a local hosjiital the other day an old lady was full of ;lee. She had received so many letters, so many flowers. Her friends had not forgotten her. She was not alone! Today that same old lady has been borne to rest. However, her face, when she went to meet her Maker, bore a smile which surprised her friends when they came to pay their last respects. What had caused this smile, they ask? The answer comes wafted back on the breezes of gentleness — consideration. She had died lupipy because her son had not forgotten his old mother. A simple letter and yet she was able to say “adieu” without a tear. She knew that she had not been forgotten and was thus enabled to sink into the calm sleep from which she never wakened. Mas the time spent in writing iliat letter, in doing one little deed of kindness — was that time wasted? There are so many and such an unending num¬ ber of little things which make life worth while that they cannot be mentioned here because of time—the salute on the street, the visiting of the sick, the smile when you feel like frowning, the harsh retort never uttered, the ])enny gi ven little Tommy, the flowers sent, the encouragement given. All these and many more would make us so happy and bring so much sunshine into the life of another — little things that aren’t worth the trouble to mention and, it seems, worth the time to do, and yet they mean so much to others — they have such a power of bringing happiness. Mr. (feorge (Iriffith has said so much in so little s])acc th at I should like to beg your indulgence one moment more while 1 (piote his message which is entitled, “Before It Is Too Late.” “If you have a gray-haired mother In the old home far away. Sit you down and write the letter. You put off from day to day. Don’t wait until her weary steps Have reached Heaven’s Pearly (late. But show her that you think of her. Before it is too late. If you have a tender message, ’ Or a loving word to say, Don’t wait until you’ve forgotten it. But whisper it today. M’ho knows what bitter memories, IMay haunt you if you wait? So make your loved one hapi)y. Before it is too late. The tender word unspoken. The letters never sent. The long-forgotten messages. The wealth of love unspent. For these some hearts arc breaking, ' For these some loved ones wait. Show them that you think of them. Before it is too late.” Ernest A. Wedge 00 History of the Class of 1931 Place: A Bookstore. Time: 1941. OOKSELfjEP: Anything 1 can do for yon, nia’ani? Customer: A’hy, yes. I’m looking for something interesting-—something I always tried to find for hook rei)orts in High School.” B.S.: Ivight this way ma’am. Here is a book by an old classmate of mine, “Creenfield As I Hememher It,” by Bliss. Cus.: Bliss, Bliss. Tliat name sounds familiar. Yon don’t mean, by any chance, Sheldon Bliss of Creenfield High School. Wasn’t he in the Class of 1931? B.S.: A ' hy, yes. Sheldon Bliss led the class in onr Freshman year as President, with Louise Cansehrook as Adee-president. (pause) You can’t, by any chance, he Louise Causebrook? Cus.: Yes — hut—. Are you “Bill” Blake? For goodness’ sake, “Bill” it’s been ages since we’ve seen each other. How have you been? B.S.: Just as foolish as ever. AA’ill you e •er for¬ get the times that the ipiperclassmen sent us to Room 4, and upon looking, it couldn’t he found because it wasn ' t in existence? Cus.: Speaking of our green Freshman year, who were- (he Iversons with the title of Secretary and Lreasurer? B.S.: Let me see. —My brain is cloudy. •—I can’t recall, hut we should he able to find it in this hook. Here it is •— Mildred Jarvis as Secre¬ tary and Anton iMushovic as Lreasurer. Cus.: Have you heard anything about Creenfield lately? Do they still have the Franklin County fairs? B.S.: Certainly. Do you remember that the fair was th( ' only place where we could yell and cheer with the best of them. Cus.: Didn’t we win some prizes for our efforts? B.S.: In our first, second, and fourth years we won the cheering cui), and the Track banner in our third and fourth years. Cus.: Those were gala holidays we looked for¬ ward to, ;md our records were something to be ])roud of. B.S.: AVe became intimately acciuainted with the school, for the first time, at the Freshman Hop given to us by the Sophomores. Cus.: Anton Mushovic and Paul Looney were the only shining lights in our class as far. as Football and Baseball were concerned. B.S.: Amid the horrors of mixing exam ])eriods, we struggled through them and found ourselves Sophomores. But little did we realize that the name meant “wise fools.” Cus.: AAdien we came hack in the f;dl. Class elec¬ tions absorbed most of our attention. Yow, who were the class officers? (Looks at index of hook.) Page 35. Here they are — Paul Looney, “Bea” LeBtiron, IMildred Jarvis, Clinton liernard, and Elizabeth IMcCrath. B.S.: Oh! The Freshman HojE Didn’t the sur¬ prised infants sit uji and take notice when we in¬ vited them to that glorious i)arty. Pefreshments were served, and a good time was had by all! Cus.: AA ' hat would Football have done without Anton Mushovic and Baseball without Paul Looney? Other than that, the year was un¬ eventful. B.S.: And then, by the (Irace of Heaven, the faculty, ;ind i Ir. E. JL Smith we found ourselves jolly Juniors. ( ' us.: The Junior Class officers were. President John Starie, •— B.S.: Xo, that’s wrong. Ken AA ' aide was Presi¬ dent. Cus.: You’re wrong. Absolutely wrong! It was John Starie. B.S.: All right. Don’t bite me. Look it up in the book. Cus.: Listen. (Finds page and reads.) “John Starie entered the Creenfield High School in the Class of 1932. During the summer vacation 56 lie coinpli ' ted work tHiuivalont to one year and a lialf, entering;- the C ' lass of 1931 in its .Innior year.” Now, wasn’t 1 riftlit? B.S.: Well, well. Have on Maeliuff and s( ' e what came next. ( ' us.: “He was soon forced to leave for Amherst, Xew Hampshire. Kenneth W’aide then filled the President’s chair. Other Class officers were John Honker, Mary Corey, Ruth Newhall, and Willard Ballon.” B.S.: Well, that makes the score tied one to one. Now continue the liistory of the gi’eatest class ever to enter the Creenfield High School. ( ' us.: “During the Football season someone was over age, and he was lost to the team for the season.” B.S.: Correct. It was Anton Mushovic. ddiis put the team on a slight decline, hut it enjoyed a good season just the same. ( ' us.: “Eddie” I ' etreault and that quiet little Cdayton Totman u{)held the Class honors in Football. B.S.: Speaking of upholding things, wasn’t it Muriel Michelman who spilled cocoa down the back of a Senior girl in the cafeteria? ( ' us.: She jjrobably hasn’t forgotten that either. It seems to me that the girls had a good Basket¬ ball team during the winter months, for they lost only one game. B.S.: Elsie Allen, iMildred Jar ' is, and Eleanor Henrich were the shining maidens from our Class. ( ' us.: Let’s consult our little book and see what the Band did. Ah ha— I thought so. W ' e went to Waltham and brought back two cups. Ji.S.: Didn’t the Band go to Pawtucket soon after that? I’ll het that trip was one grand sjiree also. ( ' us.: Bight! Wkdl, for one thing, one of the underclassmen fell asleep in the middle of the aisle, and the only way to get from one end of the bus to the other was to stej) on him. B.S.: 1 believe that you were one of the musi¬ cians to he sick. ( ' us.: Yes,— on bananas, with a little sun and heat to make it more effective! But we brought home a cup just the same. B.S.: Prize “Screeching” was next on the i)ro- gram. “Ken” ' aide won the boy’s ])rize by going back a few minutes to his childhood days. Lonita Harlow walked off with the girl’s i)rize. ( ' us.: How well I rememlx ' r that. —“Then came the dawn” and we were Seniors. B.S.: Tlu ' ii — according to this book our Class officers were; “Ken” ’aide, A ’ilhird Ballou, Ruth Xewhall, Mildred Jarvis, and Paul Looney. ( ' us.: After Class elections, our attentions were drawn to the Senior ] lay “All-of-a-Sudden Peggy.” Out of the scramble of try-outs “Phil” Calbraith and “l eg” Connors were awarded the leads. B.S.: “Peg” I ' eally never (piite recovered, and Clarence Strecker spent most of his time catch¬ ing and dissecting spiders. ( ' us.: Imagine the embarrassment of the flower- girls when they arrived on the stage and found tlie curtain down because the boy who j)ulled it had gone on a strike. B.S.: I’ll bet Eleanor Henrich would have cried if we hadn’t found some flowers for her to carry up to the j)lays. ( ' us.: After annihilating Turners Falls in a giaait game of Football, didn’t that Thanksgiving victory dam ' c go over well? B.S.: AY ' S, and the Christmas vacation was toj)- ped by a X ew Year’s dance. ( ' us.: From Januaiy until April the Basketball Team did fair work in the Yalley League, but did incomparaltle work outside the valley. B.S.: “Cutie” Ballou and Russell Hubbard ])er- formed the honors for our Class in Basketball. ( ' us.: Aly mind seems to wander after the Basketball season because [ can’t seem to remember what hapiiened after that. B.S.: Of course you do. 1 )on’t you remember the Band made its nth attempt to raise money for Band uniforms? “Pe])ita” met with much a])- l)roval, but with little financial success. 1 can still remember the joyous times we had during its j)roduction. ( ' us.: How unusual! We had Tea Dances then. — What did we do for music? B.S.: Wdiat does the book have to offer on the subject? ( ' us.: Oh, yes! “The Creenfield High School 57 Syncopators blossomed out with some synco¬ pated noise to whieli the students tried to dance at the Tea Dances.” But, what was tlie puriiose of it all? B.S.: To help defray the expenses of the Year Book, don’t you remember? ( ' us.: Perfectly, now that you speak of it. H.S.: They couldn’t have been so bad, l)eeause they were a sked to play at a regular Senior Dance on June 5th of that year. Cus.: But. s{)caking of Year Books, trouble was trouble when they started taking pictures for that Year Book. B.S.: (As INlr. Smith, reading notice.) ' ‘Pictures of the Senior Class, Dramatic Club, Student C’ouneil will be taken at the close of school.” (’us.: (As student.) “Mr. Smith, liruce Dllis has gone home for something to cat again so we can’t have the Senior Class picture taken, and Drncst Wedge fell down stairs with a tray of cream jniffs, so he’s in no condition to have his picture taken.” li.S.: (As i lr. Smith.) (A big sigh.) “Will these I)ictures ever be taken? — hat next!” (’us.: Those were the days! A ' ell, “Bill,” I’ve an appointment at five o’clock at John Cald¬ well’s False Teeth Tooth-Paste Company, so I’ll be seeing you soon. Good-bye! B.S.: Good-bye! Come in again! William 1). Bldkc E.

BARTLETT RUTH E. NEWHALL Droptietr. Wonders of Science T ills ([ucstion “Why?” has i)robahly l)ecn asked more times in the history of the world than any other. It has been the constant (piery of mankind since it was first uttei-ed. The answers which men have found and the organized knowledge obtained by ol)servation and reasoning make up what we call the sciences. The word science standing alone means knowUMlge, coming fi ' om the Latin word .sr o, to know. Science is one of the oldest things in tlu ' woi’ld. The ancient Egyptians understood one of the grc ' atest of sciences, astrono my. They also wei ' e far advanced in the sciences of mathematics, both llu ' oretical and practical. It has been found that in C ' entral America the pc ' ople of thousands of ycau’s ago were well along in the science of surgery. -Many of us do not realize that tlu comforts as well as the joys of ( ' veryday life arc ' ])reserved by scic ' ntific knowledge. EU ' ctricity, considered the greatest servant in tlu ' world was discovc ' red and put to woi ' k only through the resc ' arch of scientific nu ' ii. Recently science has been used to save many matc ' rials and to manufacture ' goods in a clu ' apc ' i ' and bettc ' r way. Formerly by-products of cc ' rtain manufacturing ])roc( ' sses wc ' re thrown away as useless, but now scic ' nee steps in and linds a use for thc ' sc ' waste ' s. This knowledge ' re ' sults in the ' saving of millions of dollai ' s a yc ' ar the ' woi ' ld ovc ' r. In the South, where cotton raising and manu¬ facturing arc the chief occuiiations, no use was made of the cotton seeds after the oil had been sepieezed from them. An efficient chemist worked with this waste material until he found a use for the dise ' arded ])ulp and husks. His final ju ' odue ' t is a material which, when c ' olored green, is used to cover the greens of miniature golf e-ourses. -lust after the war many Ifig mamd ' ae ' tui ' ing plants were left with lai ' ge supplies of gunpowder on their hands. It couldn’t be left around and it would c ' ost money to throw it in a river. So a chemist, know¬ ing that gunpowder was made from e-ellulose whie ' h has many uses, conceived a way of turning the gunpowder bac ' k into cellulose. The result is found on the many shining automobiles which have ' bc ' en painted with a substaiu ' e c ' hie ' fly made ' up of cellulose. Cactus, e)ne‘e e ' ejiisidered a te)tal waste, is ne)w being used in many ways. The ' liepiid which is ste)re ' d up in the e-ae ' tus h ' aves has been fe)und te) e‘e)unterae‘t the e ' e)ri-e)sie)n and rust e ' aused by be)iling hard water in e-ejiitainers. lntre)ducing e)ne gallon e)f e-ae ' tus juie-e will ce)mple ' te ' ly e ' orrect 80,()()() gallons e)f water and pre ' vent it fi ' e)ni causing be)ile ' r scale. Cae-tiis fibres are ne)w used to make a kind e)f silk e-loth whie ' h is made inte) fancy hand- ke ' re ' hie ' fs. So the lowly e-ae-tus is now making up for lost time ' and pi ' e) dding woi ' k for a gre-at num- 02 her of ix ' opk’. These are some of the jiraetieal. everyday wonders of seieiiee. Some years a ;o the average length of the human life.was 31 years. Seienee has now greatly bettered this average until it is now around 56 years. Part of tlu ' eredit for this betterment is owed to a ]M’o- fessor, Elie Metelmikoff. He deeided that since IPdgaria had the longest average life there must be something in their mode of living or their diet which was responsible. On going to Bulgaria he found that their diet included very many sotir cheeses. So he made a study of cheeses, finding that they contained bacilli which were very healthful. This Bulgarian Bacilli may now be bought in drug stores, or milk may he bought which has had these bacilli introduced into it. By this and other means, science has also ])rogressed greatly in decreasing infant death rate. Science has taught men to build beautiful and strong buildings. It has brought the telei)hone, the telegraph, and the radio. It has ])roduced the train, the automobile, and the airplane. It will continue to do all these and more wonderful things in the future. In short, science feeds us, clothes us, i)rotccts tis, makes life easier for us, makes us hap])icr, makes our lives longer, and heals us when we are sick. Finally, we are even buried scien¬ tifically. Manj Louise Allen V aledictory C FASSIMATES; For four years we have worked and i)layed here in this school, always looking forward to the time when we might graduate. Now, when we have actually reached that goal we look hack fondly upon the memories of our school years. A ' e remember with gratittidc the help and interest given by our teachers and we will try to show our appreciation by our success and accomplishments in the future. May you always have the courage and ])erse- vei’ance necessary to make life a success. Monj Louise Allen The Ivy Song ' e plant the Ivy here ’ifh tender loving care.

The club was founded in 1925 under the supervision of IMiss Edna Merrill, and Miss Marian Atherton. The first Club President was Dugald IMacIntyre. It was formed immediately after the Senior Play of that year, and the interest taken in it was undoubtedly due to the success of that jfiay. The meetings then were run as they are now, plays being presented both for amusement and for instruction. The Masquers has helped out many social affairs of G. H. S. by })rescnting plays. Students enjoy belonging to the Mas({uers, and this organization has been a credit to the school. President KkNXKTII ]y W. I1)E Vice-President Sheldon P. linss Secretary and Treasurer I’.WLiNE M.

But as the club advaneed in profieieney it beeanie evident that, to l)ro ' id( ' for a permanent organization, lower elassinen must be admitted. So an amendment to the constitution was made whereby Sophomores and Juniors are eligible for membershi]). Several i)nblie aiipcaranees have been made, and next year the elnb expects to offer a strong Varsity group for eom])etition with other schools, d ' he Debating Club owes mueh of its success to Miss Joyce and iNlr.

A meeting was called, under the supeia ision of Mr. Clinton Weymouth, aud oflicers w( ' re elected. The club feels that archery is one of the most enjoyable and healthful forms of outdoor activity, developing muscular coordination, self-control, poise, and ])hy.sical and menial judg¬ ment. It is a sport that can l)e continued after school or college, affording a most worth}- u.se of leisure time.

Sul)serii)tioii SI.00 a year. Resolve now to sui)])ort your sehool pajier next year. 112 Four years ago the nieinbers of the Class of 1981 first entered the saered portals of the Creen- field High Sehool to become regular members of this institution of learning. Very naive were these youngsters, the girls, with their socks, short dresses, and curls, and the boys still wearing blouses and iiantaloons. For several days these “babes” wandered around the corridors wondering just what it was all about. At last the Seniors came to the rescue and soon the “Freshies” were well advanced on their long march down the hall to the doorway toward life. Each September tliis class has re-entered the school with more assurance, laughing at the new¬ comers, and saying to one another, “Heavens were we ever as small and insignificant as that?” Had the teachers heard them they might have answered, “Yes, indeed, and you’ve hardly grown at all.” Probably they would have said after¬ wards to themselves, “Mentally.” Finally after swaggering around to a great ex¬ tent this j)ast year the Class of 1931 has reached its goal. The last class, the last exams, the last Senior dance, and the last “P.IVF” session has been exi)erienced. After this —graduation! We have with us today a grouj) of young soi)histicates who lun ' e learned all there is to know and need no moi’e advice. They eagerly grasp their diplomas and with a hoj), skip and a jump, land on the outside of that doorway which encloses childhood and adolescence. Never again can they go back. Soon, in the battle of life tliey will learn that one never knows everything and that advice, bas( ' d on interest and a desire to be helpful, is always a most welcome thing. As they look back on their attitude at Commencement they will stop and (piote a line learned from Shakesi)eare while in C. IF S. “Ah — what fools these mortals be!” M(inj M.
