To remedy our difficulties, a Federal Child Labor Amendment has been proposed, which states that Congress shall have the power to limit, regulate, and prohibit the labor of persons under eighteen years of age. A large number of American people believe that this is the only means of insuring the moral, mental, and physical wel- fare of children up to the age of eighteen. On the other hand, vigorous opposition has arisen from those who believe that the best interests of the country cannot be served by placing the power in the hands of the legislative body of our Federal Government. A close examination of facts will clearly show why this opposition has arisen. Under our Constitution as it now exists, child labor is a matter for state regula- tion, a fact which was clearly shown by the Supreme Court in nullifying the Child Labor Law, and forcing its adherents to change its form into that of a constitutional amendment. We may well pause for consideration before altering our Constitution. Is it necessary, is it desirable, to take the power in this matter out of the hands of the state governments, and to place it in the hands of the legislative body of our federal government? This would be a radical and extreme measure. It would endanger one of the fundamental principles of American democracy by increasing the domination of the federal government and reducing the power of the individual states. If we continue our policy of centralizing, we will find ourselves bound by the chains of federal law. To give Congress the power to prohibit the labor of persons under eighteen years of age would be to surrender local independence and to flood the country with federal inspectors. There are certain powers which the national government should have, and must have, but there are also many powers which should be reserved for the states. If the states are controlling a matter in an able and efficient manner, it is best to leave the power in their hands. The Child Labor Amendment does not take into cohsideration various local conditions which are peculiar to certain sections of the country. The conditions in the several states are so widely different that no legislative body, no matter how honest and efficient it may be, can pass a general law with fairness and justice to all. Is it reasonable to expect that Congress, meeting in Washington, and consisting of men from all parts of the country, can regulate child labor better than the state legislatures, in close touch with local conditions and sympathetic with local needs? While it is true that some states have not yet passed and enforced satisfactory laws, 66 --M 1 fe 5 Qar L' We er I1- Qllass Unk nf meteen 'Uffnenig the A jg ,. . .' . 4 Zn, .tx gg t .. 1, ... ,N x.. 1 I t ss, as , - ss - as 3- ' N147 if' the vast majority of them have met present-day conditions, and passed laws which adequately protect children. Senator Fletcher of Florida points out the fact that most of the states have laws declaring that no child under l6 shall be employed in any occupation injurious to his health, limb, or morals. Our own state, Connec- ticut, is one of the most progressive states in the Union in this respect. Connecticut has laws declaring that in factories and canneries there shall be a minimum age of l-L and that there shall be a maximum eight-hour day and forty-eight-hour week for children. No one under 16 years of age can work between 7 p. m. and 6 a. m. in factories, and no one under that age can work in mines or quarries. What has been accomplished in Connecticut can be accomplished in other states, and it cer- tainly would be done if half the effort which is being made to induce us to change our Constitution were being exerted in an attempt to reform the less progressive states. When we have a problem of this nature, we should settle it at the state capitol, not the national capitol. If there is something wrong with the laws of Georgia, for example, let us go to the capitol at Atlanta, and not Washington. The Child Labor Amendment cannot be defended on the grounds that Congress would use its powers with moderation and restraint. Upon more than one occasion that body has taken full advantage of its powers, and passed extreme measures which did not have the full support of the American people. Hundreds of American homes today are depending for their prosperity on the labor of boys and girls who have not reached the age of eighteen. To place their fate in the hands of a body of men which is likely to change materially every two years would be to endanger the happiness of these families and reduce many of them to poverty. The friends of this law, however, place their trust in the Supreme Court, arguing that if the legislative body went too far, the judiciary would check its activities. The Constitution of the United States is the highest law in our land. To add a constitutional amendment giving Congress the right to prohibit the labor of all persons under eighteen years of age would be to legalize such action on the part of the national government. If the Child Labor Amendment were ratified, however, Congress could make any law it pleased regarding child labor, and no court in the country could prohibit that body from doing so. One of the characteristic features of American democracy has been the division of the country into states which are self-governing in many respects. If the day comes when the power of these states shall be abolished, and the national govern- ment shall administer our local affairs, we shall have lost a precious gift which can never be regained, and for which the founders of our country suffered and died. It is the duty of Americans to protect the system which has made us a nation of equality and justice, and when any law, whether or not it assumes an appealing name, threatens this system, we should oppose it, not as good Democrats or good Republicans, but as good Americans. Wheli we are honored by the great privilege of voting, we should make sure that we protect the ideals for which the Stars and Stripes of the United States stand, and not be deceived by a mere name into sur- rendering the great and noble principle of state rights.

My earliest one was nothing more or less than to be a book-keeper. In response to ,. . '2'i'3A5'l l my curiosity, my father explained the theory of book-keeping. But this was entirely different from my conception of it, for I believed all I should have to do would be to keep the books from falling off the desk-a true book-keeper! Is there a boy who has never had the desire to see the inside of a watch? He continually craves something to do, from the time he begins playing with black diamonds to that other period when the tick-tock interests him! When he sees his first watch in father's bureau, he stealthily pulls it out. He is all excitement! Now he sees ambition flying towards him on the hands of time. What greater occu- pation is there for him, at the moment, than to make an instrument like this one? He is entering on a new existence which is not only interesting, but creative. Play time passes. The world is filled with ceaseless wonders to our young men. How shall they take their part? What shall they do? A rushing express train appeals to the imagination of one. He has a sudden desire to become an engineer, driving and dominating over this powerful engine of destruction and rejoicing in all its throbbing mechanism. He is a master of the human destinies in the cars behind him. Another has an entirely different inclination. He is attracted to polliwogs and creeping animals. We, of course, admire the persons who can fondle them with apparent enjoyment and ease, but we wonder at their courage in deliberately pulling them apart. A strange ambition, you sayg yes, indeed, but eventually, you know, some lives may depend upon this young manis early aspirations. 68 I f-yL - I 4 s fe 5 'Kaffe O if 1 , i i Clllmas ' unix nf inehzm 'ilfueni - 7 ifre fi 4.4 rg . 51 n 5 s J' sf- fl . s so ft ffm '? But what seems to be the girlis ambition? She must of course look attractive, dress stylishly. All this our mothers know too well. How many a girl has not nourished, at least secretly, the ambition to play beside a handsome, dashing hero in the movies. She sees herself no longer obliged to sit at home darning stockings, or taking part at pink teas. What costly clothes would be hers! She would become famous. and be the object of admiration of an envying public. And then, due to Dan Cupids skillful aim, her leading man might lead her. There is hardly a person to whom music does not appeal. Joy, sorrow, love, pleasure-indeed, all the emotions of life are expressed in musical form. Yet, many of us who answer its call never acquire any distinction, excepting perhaps as the biggest nuisance in our neighborhood. Those who possess an abundance of ambition in expressing their talent, often become renowned, either as prima donnas or, among men, great tenors or baritones. It is also true that many who possess such ability do not have the accompanying ambition to lead them on to fame. lt is far easier to succumb to an alluring invitation to a dance than to apply ourselves to study. ln the mad rush for pleasure, there is hardly any time for serious work, with the result that much ability lies dormant and is wasted. What, indeed. should we amount to, if we did not have ambitions? They fill us with the desire to attain greater heights, to accomplish something worth while. If it were not for ambitions, we should be easily satisfied with our environments, having no initiative to climb out, as it were, of the deep ruts we found ourselves in. Ambition is a hard mistress causing nrany to fall by the wayside, but richly reward- ing those who persevere. l leave it to you-ls it not worth our while to persevere? M.

And thus the befuddled innocents were warmly welcomed into the halls of learning through which they had chosen to amble for four years, more or less. HA prodigious thirst for learning was one of the first characteristics which the nurslings exhibited. They took to their books like ducks to rubber boots. Strange to say, no fatalities due to overstudy, were reported during that year. At about this point the notorious 'Flossy' Flapper stepped into the picture and the frivolous 'Frosh', casting all else to the wind, 'flappedi to the utmost. Little pig-tailed maidens grew muscle-bound from lugging around their enormous goloshes, and more than one miniature Beau Brummel nearly fractured his skull while endeav- oring to put a permanent part in his hair.

Life became a riot of club meetings, suppers, athletic carnivals milk-bottle book-covers for the healthy, and long-stemmed pipes with which to knock out the eyes of the unalertg speakers there were by the score, among them befeathered lnjuns to thrill the freshies, and kaki-clad generals who invited the stalwarts to attend the sunnner camp at Devens, and war heroes, who had been decorated by King George. and who abhorred the manner in which our polished Juniors larded their hair. And then again there were fastidious orientals, who. for the benefit of our ignorant Sophs, demonstrated the correct way in which to swallow soup in the land of the rajahs. Numerous other things were happening too. Our unholy thirst for blood was twice satiated, once in i922 and again 1923, when our little playmates from New Britain were torn limb from limb, and sent back to their beloved village in baskets labeled. 'squirrel food., With regard to the last game lmuch staticl ....... Our prodigious erudition must undoubtedly be laid to The Chronicle, whose monthly distribution of the cream of literature has not only enabled many of our drab-appearing text-books to blossom forth in beautiful blue and gold covers, but has also been 'quite the last word' in our cultural equipment. And then there was El Centre Espanol, that memorable Toreador club. It was organized to retain our interest in Spain and Spanish-speaking countries. The French Club held joint meetings with the Spanish Club and there was fun for all. The classical club of the Greeks brought a movie to the High School. How we all thrilled to the Eternal City. And the hours we spent to make all these organiza- tions successful! Our school paper, The Owlet, made great progress. From a four-page paper published several times a year, it has developed into an eight-page weekly news- paper, managed by a reliable board. Within its generous pages it has room for 71 '-.vw :L 75 5 xc-Aaenmcr QW - Qs'-ici Y I 3 Gilman Enola nf Nineteen Ufnentg- glfifre 24 'S rf -:P fl' .ff,4f:.v2-crzce, f' JT -N ' QE' Weaver High. lt is the only tie that binds us, and serves to heal the wound of separation. The completion of the Weaver High School relieved Hartford High of its crammed situation, and divided its classes. But youth easily overcomes such sorrows. The crowning achievement of our Junior yearn was the History-Civics Club. A group of Seniors and Juniors determined to better Hartford's civic condition. They started right in at Hartford High with their penny campaign for the library. Every cent counted, as the Freshmen picked up all they could find around and in the building, and rushed them to the office. The History-Civics Club was voted a very serious and noteworthy organization. But, glory of all, our Senior year! For here we find the Honor Society founded with a flourish. It was voted upon and accepted by a selected group who know what an organization such as this is worth. The Honor Society influences Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors to study diligently, so that when they become dignified Seniors a number of them may be admitted into the Phi Beta Kappa of the high schools. A few of our Seniors enjoyed its privileges and are decided upon winning the honor at college. The Smiley Chapter of the Honor Society is a precious heritage to the coming classes of Hartford High. The English literature classes showed their mettle when their Elizabethan recital was presented to the public. It was the first time such a repertoire was ever presented and the audience was highly delighted. The evening ran perfectly from the glee clubs' rumblings to the bright-colored pages. The dignified and supercilious Seniors had to have something new for Class Night, so they voted on the Class Will. This last Will and Testament is to be read with due pomp and ceremony this very evening. It is another diamond in our crowtn of achievement. And now, that our time is up, we bid you return to your cross-word puzzles, with a newer and warmer place in your hearts for the great old Class of 1925A. Station H. P. H.
