Bill, also known as Willie, is the happy-go- lucky sort who has passed through school with hardly a worry. Cheerfulness, an optimistic outlook on life, and wit are his outstanding traits. The spirit of good fellowship he manifests comes back to him a hundred fold. Bill is undecided about his future. He may take up professional baseball and basketball, or he may become a barber. EDWARD BONEKEMPER SAVAGE Small but dynamic. Class President 11, 2, 31 3 Business Manager, Bas- ketball Team 131g Business Manager, Baseball Team 11, 2, 313 Staff of Orange and Black 11, 21 -Editor 1315 Student Council 11, 213 Business Manager, Junior-Senior Play 1313 Business Man- ager, Operetta 131. Our class president, and a fine pupil! Edward has managed our class activities with a precision that is remarkable. Who could edit the Orange and Black as well as he did? Where could one find a more suc- cessful manager of our plays and operettas? Is there anywhere a better class president? Savage also has a keen sense of humor. How dull our Washing- ton trip would have been without Edward's droll remarks! Many good wishes for a prosperous life in the printing business! JULIA BRESEL JULIE Class Treasurer 11, 2, 31 5 Glee Club 11, 21 3 Peirce Spelling Contest 12, 315 Operetta 11, 215 Orange and Black Staff 131. Another quiet member of our class! But always game ! Julia has that something about her which makes one happy to have her around. She saves all her energy to put it into studies. She's the best speller of the class, third honor student, and one of the best Latin students Miss Heiges ever had. Best luck, Julia! SARA CASSEL USAM77 A finer friend one could not find, Excels 'in sports of every kind. Glee Club 11, 21 9 Basketball 11, 21-Captain 131 9 Track 11, 213 Operetta 11, 2, 315 Orange and Black Staff 131. Sara is our class athlete, but that doesn't mean she isn't outstanding in other fields. Her part in Betty Lou shows her ability as an actress and as a singer. Her sympathetic character, unbounding energy, and congenial temperament will be great assets to the nursing profession, which she has selected as her future field of interest. WILLIAM DETURK Amos Operetta 12, 315 Glee Club 12, 315 Orange and Black 1315 Captain, Safety Patrol 12, 31. Patrick Henry, Stephen Douglas, W. N. DeTurk, the country's greatest orators! Bill has been dubbed the class grandfather because of his far- fetched ideas. Hardly a day passes that he doesn't re-tell his well known and so forth in classes, class meetings, and other gatherings. He was one of the few lucky ones to meet a Doylestown queen on his Washington trip. William is responsible for the fine organization of the safety patrol. He also deserves much credit for returning to school after an absence of a few years. ELIZABETH DORNBACH HLIZI7 Silence is golden. Band 11, 2, 315 Operetta 11, 213 Glee Club 11, 213 Peirce Spelling Contest 131. Here is the most quiet member of our class, but by no means the most uninteresting. There is no one we know who is more precise than Liz. She be- lieves in doing something slowly and well. Her specialties are Latin and the violin. Because of her amiability, Elizabeth does not find it hard to make and retain friends. The class wishes her every suc- cess in life. PAUL HENNING CHICK Basketball 12, 313 Baseball 12, 315 Operetta 1115 Glee Club 1115 Secretary of Class 11, 2, 31. Chick is an open contradiction of children should be seen but not heard. Keeping company with a red-headed pal may account for his far spread friendliness and vivacity. We used to wonder why Paul liked rainy days. At last we discovered the secret. They give him curly hair. He has voluntarily become our class humorist. Paul has been our class secretary for three years. He also is the leading icorer in the Montgomery County League in basket- all. EVELYN KALER Ev1E Of sleeping beauties you ve heard quite a lot, But of blushing beauties we'rc sure you have not. Student Council 1115 Glee Club 11, 215 Basketball 11, 2, 315 Track 11, 215 Operetta 11, 2, 315 Orange and Black Staff 131. Evie is our tiniest girl member. She also is our most mischievous, always full of fun, and ready for a good time. Parties would be dull without her. It is not surprising to know she is popular among both the boys and girls. Her pet hobby is teasing. Many members of the class can testify to that. Evie is a good athlete. She has been a regular side center on the basketball team for two seasons. ARTHUR LEIDY IIA-RT!! Music hath charms. Junior-Senior Play 12, 315 President, Athletic Association 1315 Student Council 111-Vice-Presi- dent 121-President 1315 Operetta 12, 313 Vice- President, Class 11, 2, 31 5 StaH' Orange and Black 1315 Collegeville Chorus 1115 Glee Club 11, 2, 315 Band 131. Here is our class pianist. Art is one of the most versatile people in the class. He can play, act, dance, and do Latin. In spite of the villainous parts he por- trayed in plays, he is good'natured and full of fun. We shall not be surprised to learn that he has suc- ceeded Paderewski. PAUL LEIDY D1LL Ah, what are those girls sighing for? Operetta 12, 315 Baseball 11, 21-Captain 1315 Basketball 11, 2, 313 Junior-Senior Play 1313 Orange and Black Staff 1315 Student Council 12, 313 Glee Club 1113 Business Manager, Class 12, 31- Dill is the good looking one of our class. He has set more than one feminine heart aflutter in Hat- field, Doylestown, and Souderton. His ability in sports will, we are sure, be missed greatly next year. Dill is congenial and a good sport. The senior class forwards every wish for a bright future. HARRY MOSELEY Moss Operetta 11, 2, 315 Baseball 11, 21, Track 121. What's that crowd laughing about? Is Harry at it again? He is always in a genial mood. Mose is not afraid to do anything, and has taken up many dares during his high school days. We don't know what he will do after graduation, but judging from his success in selling jello and securing ads for the Orange and Black, we think he might be an excel- lent salesman. GRACE RICCI Glee Club 11, 21 3 Operetta 11, 2, 31 5 Junior-Senior Play 1319 Orange and Black Staff 11, 21-Busi- ness Manager 131, Student Council 12, 315 Decla- mation Contest 1215 Commencement Chorus 121. Petite, lovable, sophisticated, possessing unusual grace, poise, and vivacity-that spells Grace's char- acter. Even Doylestown is aware of it. Grace loves to dance and does it well-just another attractive feature. She likes the terms watchful waiting and is my face red? Ask her about them some time. Grace, will you please take charge of that? is a familiar request, because Grace is famous for tak- ing chargef' She is an excellent student, a capable, and conscientious worker. -4-46' CHARLOTTE SCOTT HSCOTTYU A dream, a theme, and an aeroplane. Glee Club 1215 Band 1315 Operetta 12, 313 Orange and Black Staff 131. Here is our class poet. She came to us only a few years ago and what we would do without this bit of sunshine no one knows. Charlotte's secret ambition is to own an aeroplane with which she expects to soar way above the clouds and write her poetry in peace. The senior class hopes she may realize her ambition. DAVID VREELAND uDAvE1r A true wit is he, yes indeed! Laugh and let laugh is his creed. Operetta 1215 Junior-Senior Play 1213 Baseball 12, 313 Glee Club 1215 Basketball 12, 31. A very amiable character and full of fun! Dave returned to our class in the junior year after an absence of one year. He is the kind of boy who can do almost anything well-that is, if he wants to do it. He has not decided what he will do after he leaves school, but our best wishes go with him. MARY WALSH Glee Club 11, 213 Orange and Black Staff 1215 Junior-Senior Play 1315 Peirce Spelling Contest 1313 Operetta 121. Do you remember how Mary jumped at that mouse in the mock trial in our sophomore year? Nor was she less successful in carrying out her role of Irish Annie in The Jade Necklace. She is one of the fortunate few who seem to be able to get things without having to study for them. Here's wishing her success for the future! JOSEPH GIEDGOWD l6J0E9Y Baseball fl, 2, 31 5 Operetta fl, 213 Glee Club 111. Behold the Jack Dempsey of our class! He is very timid f?1 until something occurs that makes him lose his temper. Then beware! Joseph is, nevertheless, very good- natured. His Ford has often conveyed seniors home from class meetings. Joe is the leading slugger on the baseball team, having batted in clean-up position for three seasons. ROBERT REINERT HBOBH Track fl, 2, 31 3 Operetta Q21 5 Glee Club 121 3 Cattle Judging Team fl, 21. Robert is our star half-miler. Few, if any, in our school can outrun Bob on a long distance run. He also is one of our few quiet seniors, but frequently enters into one of the heated discussions in history class. He is a hard worker.

Our Challenge Our school tasks have been completed, Our books have been put aside, We've gone through the portals of knowledge And our footstep echoes have diedg The future lies before usg The past is sealed in our heartsg The days to come have a meaningg We all must play our parts. What our part will be in the great whole We may never understand, But we know we're here to play it In just the best way we can. We know itis a part of action, Not whining and shirking or fright, A part of love to each human, Not cynicism nor spite. We may regret that weire lacking ,In talents that others possess, But our time will only be wasted If we wish for what might have beeng The world is offering a challenge To every individual selfg Each life of love and service, Is a mine of wondrous wealth. -Charlotte Scott. Senior Pastimes Riding elevators in Washington. Emitting a horrible screech called a laugh. Clipping Savage,' or Kaler on the cranium. Collecting class money. Exercising her jaws with Wrigley's. Horning in. Acting dignified by sleeping. Gazing at buildings in the far, far away. Acting hard fhe isn'tl. Dating one junior after the other. Drumming chopsticks on the piano. CHe calls it playingj Getting bumped by another car in his Ford. Acting angelic. Dreaming of her Doylestown hero. Arguing for a half point. Gazing. Regretting the end of Saturday morning in Washington, D. C Class History anal Prophecy SCENE: Oflice of Editor of Hatfield Blotch TIME: Late afternoon, 1953 PROPERTY: Editor's sign, telephone, desk, pile of typewritten copy, pencils, etc. CuARAcTERs: Editor, Edward Bonekemper Owner, Evelyn Kaler Sporty' Reporter, Paul Leidy fEditor sitting at desk when scene opens. Evelyn enters.l EVELYN: How is business getting along today, Ed.? EDWARD: Pm sorry, Evelyn, but we lost money again last week. Nobody wants to advertise. Why, this depression is as bad as the one in 1933. Remember how hard We had to work to get ads for our year book? EVELYN: Can't we cut down on the overhead? EDWARD: Impossible I CPaul Leidy enters wearing baseball cap, and carrying glove.D EDWARD: Hello, 'Dillyf Have your copy finished already? PAUL: You bet. We played the Yanks a double header today. I'll be back in a few minutes. So long CExit Paul-Enter Evelynj. EVELYN: What,s the sense in paying him forty a week just to write a half column a day? EDWARD: But, Evelyn, Paul's the best pitcher in the big leagues. just a little article by him, and we sell twice as many papers. Why, just on Friday he held Detroit to one hit and hit a homer himself and he pitched against the Yanks today. EVELYN: Well, I suppose you're right. EDWARD: How are the American Towel Mills making outfi' EVELYN: We just got another big order yesterday-Bill Anderson's barber shop on Forty-second Street? EDWARD: He has some barber shopI Twenty years ago, who would have imagined him as the proprietor of a barber shop almost as big as the Hotel Chastleton, fifteen barbers, and only ten cents for a hair cut. EVELYN: I wonder Why Bill never married. Remember at school how he used to to talk about the Souderton 'queensf and at baseball games he had all the pretty girls. Now here he is, almost forty years old, handsome, rich and still a bachelor. Well, that's the way it goes. CThoughtfully.l By the way, are you sure your business manager is honest? Perhaps this- finterruptedl. EDWARD: HonestI I I Don't you remember julia Bresel? EVELYN: julia Bresell Of course I do. I had forgotten that she helps you run this business. Your funds surely are safe with her. Remember what a good class treasurer she Was? EDNVARDZ Yes, julia certainly could be trusted, and she's just as efficient as ever, even with added household duties. EVELYN: Well, I'll have to go. But, Ed., I'm afraid we'll have to stop the paper if we lose money this week again. I'll see you laterf' CExit Evelyn. Enter Paul.J PAUL! Who was that? Her face looked familiar. EDWARD: She owns the American Towel Mills. You know-the mills that supply all the towels and washcloths for the senators and representatives at Wash- 1ngton.' PAUL: She owns those large mills on Broad Street? Oh, you mean Evelyn Kaler? But how did she get the monopoly on government towels? EDWARD: Well, you know Senator DeTurk from Doylestown? .PAULZ Oh, you mean William DeTurk, the President's right hand man. Yes, everybody knows him. EDWARD: She just played a little game of politics, and he did the rest. PAUL: Boy! Is that guy an orator! I'l1 bet Patrick Henry would feel cheap along side of Bill. Remember how he used to argue at school? EDWARD: Yes, and wasn't he lucky to get a girl on our Washington trip? PAUL: I don't see where he was any luckier than Grace Ricci. How about that handsome man she met on the same trip? EDWARD: That's right. I forgot about Grace. Remember, how after our return from Washington, she was always looking out the windows in Room 12 in the direction of Doylestown? PAUL: How about the day you asked her the population of Doylestownf' EDWARD: Oh, yes! And she said ONEY' PAUL: She had been a nurse at Great View Hospital. When she was there, there were twice as many patients as usual. ' EDWARD: And when she left, wasn't it queer how all the patients suddenly got well? One handsome fellow went there five times, but since Grace has gone, he's had perfect health. PAUL: By the way, Ed., why does Evelyn come here so often? Does she write articles for you ? EDWARD: Write articles! She owns the paper I PAUL: She does??' EDWARD: Yes, but she's going to sell out if we lose money again this week. Things certainly look bad. CPhone rings-Edward answers.D Hello. Who? Elizabeth Dornbach! How much for a page ad? Wait a minute! Am I hearing correctly? You want a full page ad in this week's paper! Fine! I'll see you tomorrow. Thanks, Lizzief' CHangs up.D Think of it, 'Dilly,' a full page ad from one of our classmates, Elizabeth Dornbach! Another ad and the paper is safe! PAUL: An ad from Lizzie Dornbach! What's she advertising? EDWARD: She's business manager of the Penn Sculptural Company. PAUL: Business manager? Who owns it? ' EDWARD: Her husband. You know, that position just suits her. She's always been so quiet, and so are the statues. PAUL: Boy! Wasn't she quiet at school? No wonder she wants a large advertise- ment. EDWARD: And could she answer examination questions! CPhone rings.l Hello! Hello! Hello! Who is this? Paul Henning! CSomewhat ironicallyl From where are you phoning? From London? I can't hear you. Paris? fMuch surprised, You just arrived there in your airplane? Oh, yes! You bet! I?ll give you a good write-up. A half page ad? O.K. So long CHang up receiverl. Hooray! The paper is saved!

I haven't seen you for ages. How do you do. CShake hands.J PAUL: You're looking fine. EVELYN: Thanks, Paul. You certainly have been making sensational baseball records. By the way, Ed., to Whom were you talking when I came in? EDWARD: Paul Henning just phoned from Paris. He's advertising for passengers. You know, Paul is an aviator now.', EVELYN: He always was Highty. How did you get him to advertise? EDWARD: Remember how he used to like to see his name in the 'Norristown Times- Herald' during high school days? EVELYN: Yes, indeed. EDWARD: Well, all I had to do was to promise him a good write-up in our news- paper and he came through with the ad. EVELYN: I guess our classmates saved the paper. CTurns to Paul, How did the Senators make out today? PAUL: We licked the Yanks twice-1-0, 7-4. EVELYN: CReading newspaperj: What's this? 'Moseley completes non-stop liight around the world. Harry Moseley arrived in Unionville late last night com- pleting his second non-stop Bight around the world?' Read this, Paul. CI-lands paper to Paul-Turns to Edward.J Is that our Harry Moseley, of the Class of '33, of Hatfield High. EDXVARDZ Of course.

BRESEL This year we are celebrating the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the first arrival of William Penn in America on October 24, l682. We, the honor students, have chosen the life of William Penn for our commencement theme. It is our purpose to narrate the life and portray the character of William Penn, a man who is distinguished for his moral qualities and mental talents, his sufferings and success, his work as an author, a gospel minister, and a Christian legislator. William Penn came of seafaring and fighting men on the paternal side, and of commercial ancestry on the maternal side. His father was a commander in the British Navy. His mother was Margaret jasper, the daughter of an English mer- chant. Janney in The Life of William Penn says: The fact that his mother was living in Rotterdam led some writers to believe that VVilliam had Dutch blood in his veins. But his mother was English and William was a thoroughbred Englishman. Admiral Penn, the father of William, was the son of a successful merchant named Giles Penn. He took his son to sea at the age of ten. At seventeen Williamfs father receivd a warrant of master's mate in the navy, at nineteen he was master commandantg at twenty-one second captain of Blakeis flag-ship, and at twenty- three post captain in command of the Speaker, the best built ship of the time. At the age of twenty-five he was promoted to the rank of rear-admiral, and at thirty, he attained the highest rank of a sea-going ofiicer, that of Vice Admiral of England. This rapid promotion gives evidence of his ability, determination, and persever- ance. These characteristics undoubtedly influenced William also. William Penn was born near Tower Hill, London, in 1644, during the stormy times of a civil war. This gave him a wonderful opportunity to learn about public affairs. William was a bright, active boy, fond of sports, and enjoying a joke as much as anyone, although he also thought of the serious things of life. One day while sitting alone in his room, a feeling of comfort overtook him. He thought that he was close to God, and from that time he loved the Lord and wished to serve Him. Little is known of his boyhood, except that he attended school at Chigwell, Essex, until he was twelve years old, he also had a tutor at home. He was active, excelled in sports, and was dressed with the pomp and in the style of a Cavalier. He received an outstanding impression when he was eleven years old. His father heard of Thomas Loe's appearance in the neighborhood. Being interested in his theories, Penn's father invited him to hold a meeting in his home. Thomas Loe spoke with such earnestness that one of the servants cried and even Admiral Penn shed tears. William was impressed and thought, What if everyone here were a Quaker? At the age of fifteen, William went to Oxford and entered as a student at Christ's Church College. He was energetic and thorough, not only in study, but also in athletics. He was particularly fond of fencing. One day William heard that Thomas Loe was conducting meetings not far from the college. He went with a few of his friends to hear him. As he listened to this man, he felt disgusted with the Church of England. At this time a ruling was made that all students should wear caps and gowns. After having thought about this ruling, and having compared it with the preaching of Loe, Penn and a few of his chums refused to wear the garb and even mobbed some of the boys who wore them. Finally, they tore off the caps and gowns. When the dean of the college heard of this, he expelled William. His father was angry, not only because William was expelled, but also because of his Quaker ideas. At first he treated him quite gently, but when William refused to yield, in a rage he sent William out of the house. William's mother, who was an excellent woman, pleaded for her son, and his father tried another plan. He decided to send him to France with people of rank. Here he would come in contact with people of the world and forget his queer reigious views. In Paris he read books of the early Christian writers and became skilled in the French language. At Suemar, he studied in the Protestant College. He took care of the Irish estates so well that the Admiral was delighted. How- ever, on one occasion William again heard Thomas Loe, who spoke on the subject, There is a faith which is overcome by the world, and there is a faith which over- cometh the world. At this time, 1667, William became a Quaker. At another meeting William and some other Quakers were arrested and taken before the mayor. When he saw William attired as a Cavalier, he thought there must be a mistake and wanted to release him. But William refused to accept his freedom unless the others were also liberated. After having been released, William had a great difficulty to face. His father, upon hearing about William's Quaker tenden- cies, sent for him. He became very angry when William refused to give up his Quaker ideas. Again his father sent him from home. William's mother once more interceded and William was brought into the home but his father refused to see him. At the age of twenty-four, William became an earnest preacher. He also wrote many topics on religious subjects. Among his best known books are: No Cross, No Crown. This was written while he was a prisoner in Tower Hill. Later he wrote, Some Fruits of Solitude in Reflection and Maxims, and Rise and Progress of the People Called Quakers. In 1670, an act was passed to suppress all religious meetings, except those conducted in accordance with the rule of the Church of England. William and his friends continued their meetings. Upon going to one meeting in London, they found the doors barred by soldiers. William then began to speak in the streets. Immediately he and William Mead were arrested. They were sent to Newgate Prison. While William was in prison his father became ill and wished to see him. He paid the fine for William and his friend, and they were released. Near the end of Admiral Penn's life, he became more loving and tender, and he was reconciled to his son's religious views. Admiral Penn's greatest disappointment during his earlier years had been his son's religious views, now his greatest comfort was seeing his son live a life of self-denial. After William was set at liberty, he made a tour of Holland and Germany. Upon his return in 1673, he married Gulielma hfaria, the daughter of Sir William Springett, who had been an officer in the Parliamentary Army, but who passed away at twenty-three years of age, without having seen his infant daughter. Mrs. Springett became unsettled in religion for she could endure neither the formal prayer of the Church of England nor the whining cant of the Puritans. About this time Guli's mother met Isaac Pennington, who could find nothing but deceit in the prevailing religious views. They were married and shortly dis- covered that the Quaker faith was what they sought. Hence, Guli was reared by her mother and step-father in the Quaker faith. She was beautiful, talented, and good. Since her parents were staunch Quakers she and William had many things in common. She was an inspiration to Penn. In passing it may be interesting to note that their children were not what we should expect from this union. Heredity plays queer tricks. Penn's heirs, who later owned the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, were the children of Penn's second wife, a Woman less lovely, and less talented than Guli. In 1677, he again traveled to Holland and Germany and met Princess Eliza- beth, daughter of the King of Bohemia. She welcomed him kindly and in the presence of a number of her friends he held religious meetings. There he made many converts to the Quaker religion. Penn not only was a famous religious leader and statesman, but he was a man possessed of attractive and distinguished personality. He was handsome, always attractivey dressed, courteous, well-educated, experienced in travel, an affectionate son, husband, and father, and a most loyal friend. He also was a true philanthropist who loved his fellow men. Janney says, After all, I think the fable of the palm good in him-the more he is pressed, the more he rises. He seems of a spirit fit to bear and rub through diffi- culty, and as thou observes, his foundation remains. PART II William Penn and His Ideals By GRACE M. Ricci William Penn is usually thought of as a religious, meditative man, who wore drab clothes and who successfully founded Pennsylvania on beautiful, benevolent principles, with kindness to the Indians. The real Penn, although of a very religious mind, was also a man of action. He had decided opinions on government, religion, and education. He was at times both a courtier and a politician. He dressed exceedingly well, and lived lavishly. His life was full of contests, imprisonments, disaster, and suffering. These trials started in his early youth. It is in that way we can account for the early molding of his political and religious ideas. Penn was very much in advance of his time in advocating the principles of true democracy. The foundation of his radical opinions, as they were then called, was based on the inheritance of the Royalist ideas from his father, the strength- ening of them from his close relations with King James, and the deep impression made upon him by the opposite party's principles of liberty and free government. He was a curious mixture of both prevailing political parties. His desire to put his theory of government into practice was realized when he acquired land in America. Dr. Lingelbach says: The importance of Penn's politi- cal philosophy can scarcely be estimated, so great has been its effect upon both the state and the national government. The foundation of public schools was estab- lished, the principle of no taxation without representation was laid down, the pro- vision of registry for'births, marriages, deaths, Wills, etc., was in advance of the English law of that time. While the recognition of the rights of a prisoner to be heard in his own defense or by counsel were not fully secured until 120 years later. Penn's thoughts are brought out in this passage, using his own Words, govern- ment seems to me a part of religion itself, a thing sacred in its institution and end. Governments, like clocks, go from the motion men give them, and, as governments are made and moved by men, so by them they are ruined, too. A few of the laws agreed upon for Pennsylvania were: 1. He said, Justice shall neither be sold, denied, or delayed. In the Temple of Truth, Justice must be the foundation stone. 2. That in the courts, all persons may personally plead their own cause themselves, or, if unable, by their friends. 3. That all children within this province of the age of twelve years shall be taught some useful trade or skill to the endg that none may be idle, but the poor may work to live, and the rich. if they become poor, may not want. 4. That all prisons shall be workhouses for felons, vagrants, and loose and idle persons. As precise and firm as were his ideas in politics, so also were his views in rel'gion. As a boy, Penn harbored many conflicting principles of religion. Fisher says: He was born with a sincere earnestness, a serious-mindedness, and a natural inclination for religionf' His associations in boyhood were decidedly Puritan. But, since he was not bound to any one religion, he relied on his inward convictions to lead him. Penn, at first, was not satisfied with the Quaker religion. He studied theology for the purpose of enlightening himself on the Whole subject of religion. He was earnestly trying to see in Quakerism something deeper and broader than the peculiar external character of the Quakers, which aroused so much hatred and caused so much punishment. Taken from his own writings, as the previous honor student has said, Penn stated that the Lord first appeared to him in his twelfth year when he accidentally heard a sermon preached by an old friend, Thomas Loe, whom he had known at Oxford. The theme of the sermon was: There is a faith which overcomes the world and there is a faith which is overcome by the world. Penn felt his faith was being overcome by the world. The fighting spirit in him rebelled. The doctrine struck home. From that day on, William Penn was a Quaker. He and some friends abandoned the college chapel services and held private prayer meetings among themselves. They were fined and punished, but this only seemed to strengthen their faith in the Quaker doctrine. Penn had a double nature. He was both a leader and a preacher, a Cavalier and a Quaker, and, as Fisher says: He belonged to the world and to religion. This was the key to his character. The spirit of self-denial was predominant in Penn all through his life. He suffered torture because of his religious beliefs. He was imprisoned again and again. These traits showed the true mettle of the man. Instead of weakening his faith they strengthened it. An example of this spirit, is his refusal to take undue advantage of the Indians in Pennsylvania, although he was offered a goodly sum for the Indian trade from the South to the North between the Susquehanna and Delaware Rivers. The man who offered the bargain said, I believe truly he does aim more at justice and righteousness and spreading of the truth than his own particular gain. The success of his government in Pennsylvania was due to a host of things. Penn decided to do what many Quakers had desired to do, that is, to make a great experiment in government based on the principles of the Sermon on the Mount. All were to have religious freedom in Pennsylvania. It occurred to Penn that he was not the only one who had a claim to Pennsyl- vania. The Indians also had. One of the first things he did was to draw up a treaty with them. The provisions of the treaty were: First, that all roads and doors should be open to each other, that no one should harbor evil reports, that justice would be sought in the councils of twelve men, six whites and six Indians. The Indians enthusiastically approved the treaty, and it was adopted without oaths or seals. They kept this treaty for seventy years. The white people were the first to break the covenant. It is interesting to note that not one drop of Quaker blood was ever shed in the colony by an Indian. Such was Penn's peace policy with the Indians. That was the beginning of his success in the colony. Great strides were taken in every field from then on. Some of his more extreme ideas were changed, such as his belief that higher education was an injury to religion. Penn was a very well educated man. He attended school at VVanstead and entered Oxford at the age of fifteen, from which he was expelled because of conduct relating to religious opinions. His father, Admiral Penn, greatly distressed at his sonls behavior, tried threats and punishments. He gave up in vain, and sent his son to France where he attended a Protestant college. He became an excellent French scholar there. William Penn was a pioneer in educational thought. He said, The world is certainly a great and stately volume of natural things, but alas, how very few leaves of it do we seriously turn over.', A statement which is quite well known is, Knowledge is the treasure, but judgment is the treasurer of the wise man. He that hath more knowledge than judgment is made for another man's use, not his own. Penn incorporated in the laws of Pennsylvania the need for education. A few of his well known maxims on education are: Neither despise nor oppose what thou dost not understand. A wise man makes what he learns his own the other shows he is but a copy or collection at most. In closing, I wish to quote a testimony concerning William Penn, which was sent from Berkshire, England, in 1719: He was a man of great abilities, of an excellent sweetness of disposition, quick of thought, and of ready utterance, full of qualifications of true discipleship, even love without dissimulation, as extensive in charity as comprehensive in knowledge, and to whom malice or ingratitude were utter strangers--ready to forgive enemies and the ungrateful were not excepted. He may be ranked among the learned, good, and greatg whose abilities are suffici- ently manifest throughout his elaborate writings, which are so many lasting monu- ments of his admired qualifications, and are the esteem of learned and judicious men among all persuasions. In all, he was learned, without vanity, apt without forwardnessg facetious in con- versation, yet weighty and serious, of an extraordinary greatness of mind, yet void of the stain of ambitiong as free from rigid gravity as he was clear of unseemly levityg a man, a scholar, a friend, a minister--whose memorial will be valued by the wise and blessed with the just. 7 77 PART Ill The Holy Experiment By MARY K. WALSH My classmates have just told you about William Penng his ancestry and youthg his ideals in politics, religion and education. I shall discuss his attempt at putting his ideals into practical use through his Holy Experiment. Penn's first attempt at politics occurred when he tried to help Algernan Sydney gain a seat in the House of Commons. This experience, although unsuccessful, brought Penn into closer contact than ever with the British Government. He now became known as a political, as well as a religious leader. But for some time after this, he left politics and turned his thoughts towards America. He dreamed of a place where Quakers might establish a settlement and be free from religious persecution. He had pondered on it for about twenty years, and now his determination had reached its climax. He recalled how the Puritans had found happiness in Massachusetts, and the Catholics in Maryland. Even a group of Anglicans, England's chosen people, had with- drawn themselves to Virginia to engoy the freedom of America. Penn had in mind a plan whereby he could obtain a grant of land from the Crown at little direct expense to him. The English Government was in debt to his father, Admiral Penn, to the amount of sixteen thousand pounds, for naval services. At the death of the latter, the proceeds of the debt, when paid, were to go to William Penn, the eldest son. Penn thought that this money would never be paid during his lifeg so he sent a petition to King Charles II, asking payment in a tract of land bounded on the east by the Delaware River, on the west limited by Maryland, and northward as far as plantablef' The demand for grants at this time was great, and it was only after much confusion and difiiculty that the grant was made. It was the largest grant ever made to one person in America. It covered over forty thousand square miles. lt was slightly smaller than England and larger than Ireland. On March 4, 1681, King Charles placed his signature on the charter. There was much debate over what this new colony should be called. Penn suggested sylvania, meaning forest, and the King added Penn as a tribute to Admiral Penn. William Penn did not want his name to be prefixed to Sylvania but the King would not change it. Thus started the founding of Pennsylvania. Penn owned this new colony as a Lord in England owned his manor. He was known as the King's tenant. The settlers were to pay Penn as his tenants would. In leturn for the grant, Penn was to give the King two beaver skins annually and one- fifth of all the gold and silver found in Pennsylvania. The first form of government for Pennsylvania was provided in the charter. The people had the right to elect delegates to pass legislation but Penn had power to veto their laws. Penn was appointed perpetual governor, but if he chose, in his absence, the country might be ruled by a deputy. Before Penn visited Pennsylvania, he formed part of the Constitution of Penn- sylvania. This was the more important and better remembered part of the Constitu- tion. It consisted of two great decisions. The first of these was known as the Preface. It guaranteed to the settlers in Pennsylvania political liberty within the restraint of the law. Penn gave political liberty but he demanded obedience, because, as he said, liberty without obedience is confusion, and obedience without liberty is slavery. The second great decision was known as the Great Fundamental. This was the clause which gave religious liberty to the people. The Preface and the Great Fundamental combined, constituted what is known to us as the Holy Experiment. It was these two which made the difference between Penn's government and every other government existing at that time. They were Penn's greatest contributions to our United States Government, because both were later incorporated in the Constitution of the United States. Not only was it a gift and contribution to the United States, but to Europe, too, felt its effects. All Europe with amazement saw The sou1's high freedom trammeled by new law. Besides the Holy Experiment, Penn's Constitution was outstanding because of many other provisions. His Provincial Council suggested the Senate of the United States. It also provided for the process of amendment. This clause appeared for the first time in Penn's government. Not only were the fundamental statements of this document outstanding, but all legislation which followed secured an abiding harmony with the Preface and the Great Fundamental. A politician never could have viilritteril such a government. Penn was not a politician, he was a Quaker through and t roug . After this, Penn was ready to visit his new colony. He made a prosperous three months' voyage to America. He arrived on October 24, 1682. He was greatly pleased with the new colony, and did not spare words to express his approval. Immediately after he arrived, he moved northward and founded Philadelphia, the city of brotherly love. Fisher, in his book on William Penn, says: Philadelphia was the name of an ancient city in Asia Minor where one of the seven churches of the primitive Christians was established and as the Quakers were attempting to return to primitive Christianity, this would be a strong reason for giving the new city this name. His experience in London had taught him many things about city life, and he planned Philadelphia as a green country town. The outstanding incident of Penn's first visit was his famous treaty with the Indians, signed in a section which is now part of Philadelphia. It was made to the effect that the Indians should be paid for all and any land which might be taken from them. It also stated that the Christians and Quakers should live as brothers. This was to apply not only to the present generation, but the league was to be transmitted to the children of both groups. Neither party concerned swore to this treaty, and it has been said of it by the well known French historian, Voltaire, It was the only treaty between the Indian and Christian that was not ratified by an oath and was never infringed upon. After this treaty, Penn set about to complete the Constitution. The new provisions were that: Every person believing in the one God could become an established settler in Pennsylvania and that all oflicials of government would have to believe in Jesus Christ. His door was free to men of ev-ery name. He welcomed all the seeking souls who came, And no man's faith he made a cause for blame. He established only two capital crimes, murder and treason. After adding several minor clauses, he had completed his work on the Constitution of Pennsylvania. While affairs were progressing rather successfully in Pennsylvania, 'there were several matters in England which had to be attended to by William Penn. So Penn had to return to England. He had heard that hundreds of Friends were being imprisoned and he wanted to help them to win their freedom. When he arrived in England, he found a new king on the throne who openly showed his preference to Roman Catholics. Penn soon succeeded in winning the favor of the new king, but it was not long before the king himself was overthrown and a Protestant, William of Orange, was crowned. Penn was arrested several times under the charge of having had private communi- cation with the exiled king. Penn thought it unwise to leave England while under suspicion, and was, therefore, forced to remain away from his beloved home for seventeen years. In the meanwhile, he turned the authority of Pennsylvania over to the govenor cf New York. Finally, after seventeen long years of absence, Penn was able once again to return to Pennsylvania. At this time his family, with the exception of one son, returned with him. He established his home in Philadelphia and again renewed his friendly rela- tions with tho Indians. But he was not to be allowed happiness for long. He heard that an effort was being made to turn all proprietary governments over to the Crown. Again he returned to England to try to preserve Pennsylvania. When he returned, there was nothing to wel- come him but misery. The son whom he had left behind was leading a life of dissipa- tion, and all the efforts of William Penn to change him were of no avail. Later Penn was arrested and imprisoned for debts incurred because many fraudulent demands had been made upon him. In his discouragement Penn said: O Pennsylvania what hast thou cost me? About 530,000 more than I ever got by it, two hazardous and most fatiguing voyages, my straits and slavery here, and my child's soul almost .... In short I must sell all or be undone, and am disgraced in the bargain. Through all his trials, he maintained his quiet trust in God and was soon freed by the efforts of some friends. Soon after his release, he had a paralytic stroke, and several others followed. His mind weakened and he became almost incapable of any mental action. He lived for six years with his family in a peaceful state, and died in July, 1718, at the age of seventy- four years. At twenty-four Penn's departure from Pennsylvania, the standards of the colony began to fall and soon they were no higher than those of most other colonies. We ask if the Holy Experiment was a failure! Temporarily, yes. But only because Penn lived before his time. The world was not ready for his theories at that time, but since then, we have learned that these ideals must be incorporated in a government if it is to be successful. Penn's experiment was a success, but to the generations that followed, not to the people of his own day. Pennsylvania's high standing and superiority over many of her sister states shows that Penn's influence is still with her. In that delightful land which is washed by the Delaware's waters, guarding in sylvan shades, the name of Penn, the apostle, stands on the banks of the beautiful stream, the city he founded, and its streets still re-echo the names of the trees of the trees of the forest. nl, 'A K K! cf! 1 1 1nn1.m1m1-1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1.,1nn1-m1M1 1 1 1 Sittings Telephones: By Appointment Pennypacker 6190 Pennypacker 8070 Zamsky Studio, Inc. 902 Chestnut Street Philadelphia Pa This year we have completed the photographic Work for over a hun- dred schools and colleges, and the photographs in this book are an example of our uniform quality and fine workmanship.

Conwell plead with us not to close our eyes to the opportunities that are open to us in our own communities. Hatfield is located within the industrial center of the North Penn Valley. The constant industrial growth of this community has been of great advantage to the graduates of the Lansdale School of Business. The largest North Penn industries, together with a number of Philadelphia concerns, have in past years, created a constant demand for the graduates of this Institution. Thus, to those of its graduates who prefer employment in Philadelphia, such opportunity is open. To those, however, who prefer to avoid the greater expense and Ionizer hours of commutation, desirable and profitable employment in their own communities will be available. Those who are wise will investigate the merits of this Local Educational Institution and the opportunity that it offers to its graduates.
