We, the Class of 1941, leave this Hematite as a means of preserving a record of our high school days. If it reminds our fellow students of their happy and profitable days in school, if it brings back to all its readers cherished memories of their school days, and if it instills in them a deep reverence for our Alma Mater, we feel that our purpose has been accomplished.

From her we have learned the dignity of study and the value of exacting scholarship. j-fer lzeen perception of mind that penetrated the shoddy, the insincere, her loyalty to duty, and her genuine serbice have always evoked our respect.

I am sure that to the members of the class this occasion is one of high significance. It is the first real step in attaining that goal which has been up- permost in our minds. Almost always when a person has achieved success, he can look back and see that many have assisted him. I take this opportunity to thank the faculty, administration, friends, and parents who have been so kind and sincere in their guidance, helping us to achieve a certain measure of success. Soon we, the Class of 1941, shall be enter- ing a sphere much larger than the one We are leaving. We shall go forth into new territory seeking that which is fine and righteous. What is there for us? What can we do? Is there a place for each of us? These are a few of the questions which rise before us. We are entering this sphere at a time when democracy is truly on trial. It is a time when diflicult decisions must be made. Our future depends upon these decisions being made cor- rectly. It is a time when alertness and stead- fastness become essential virtues. Indifference or selfishness can not be allowed to interfere. Sacrifices will have to be made that We may preserve democracy as our way of life. You as well as I know that now as never be- fore industry is having a great boom. Every kind of worker is needed from skilled machin- ist to the laborer doing the simplest task. VVe are fortunate. Inasmuch as there is this need of workers we have a fair chance to en- ter into some field that will give us a living wage. But what does history show? Wars have their booms and good-time periods, but after the war is over and industry slackens, we know that we shall have to face a time of depressing situations. What will keep human spirits high? To what kind of leadership shall we respond? These are questions of great im- portance. The youth of America will help either to make or break the fine democracy which we have. We shall not be the first to face such a sit- uation. It has been faced many times before. In 1800 William Pitt said, There is scarcely anything around us but ruin and despair, and the following year Thomas Jefferson in a mo- ment of despair said that the enemies of civ- ilization were about to destroy every- trace of civilization in the world and force mankind back into a savage state. Yet in due time We conquered the situation and went forward. We have accomplished much since those statements were made 140 year ago, for our ancestors would not accept defeatg they faced the facts unafraid with vision and courage. During- the panic of 1837 people were Wont to say that there was no hope for things ever to be as satisfactory as they had been. Longfellow an- swered with The Psalm of Life which opened with the stanza: Tell me not, in mournful numbers, Life is but an empty dreaml- For the soul is dead that slumbers, And things are not what they seem. and closed with the words: Let us then, be up and doing With a heart for any fateg Still achieving, still pursuing, Learn to labor and to wait. We, too, shall face the days that are ahead with faith in the future. Some of us will be aided by having had a college education, but we who do not receive this training should not try to avoid the responsibility which is ours. VVe must be willing to take up some of the responsibility which is on your hands. We do Want to help to see this present-day situation through to the end. We ask that you accept that we are no longer children, that you give us some of the burden, In doing so you will strengthen us in the faith in which you are working. We are future citizens, and to some extent our start in social activities is depend- ent upon what you give us to do and how you receive us in this world of turmoil. The Class of 1941 sits before you 120 strong. Through the thirteen years many friendships have been established. Soon we are to part, each to go his separate way-some to college, some to work, some to the army or navy. Re- gardless of where we go we shall never forget these last few nights of being united as one great working organ. We are happy to have you with us. We Welcome you to our Class Night exercises. -CREIGHTON AMELI. CLASS HISTORY-STATISTICS In considering the history and other vital facts about this class it would probably be well to go back to our educational beginnings. In many respects we are among the more favored of those classes graduating during the last dec- ade. Our education began just before the great depression: Sixty-four out of the 111 of the class for whom information is available entered school in 1928, 22 in 1927, and 15 in 1929. The remaining 10 for one reason or another have had more marked interruptions of their educational careers, Thus We entered school just before the depression, lived most of our educational careers too young to real- ly understand it, and find ourselves now en- tering a world unusually ready to receive us. That is not to say that there are no difficulties or troublesome times ahead for us. We need only to look at the front pages of the daily 4 l papers Csocial science department please notej, to be aware of that. It is rather interesting and somewhat sur- prising to find how varied the educational back- grounds of the members of this class have been, particularly in the sources of their elementary education. Almost one-half the class, 47 per cent to be exact, have attended schools other than the Ishpeming public schools, and only 53 per cent, are entirely a product of the public school system. While these diverse preparatory backgrounds present problems to the high school authorities, yet the practice inaugurated in re- cent years of holding conferences at outlying schools with prospective students has resulted in a more complete understanding of the stu- dent and his individual needs. The home backgrounds play an important part in the educational process, and these also Page Twenty-Seven - present many diversities within the class. On entering school for the first time 19 usually did not speak English at home. Most of these students spoke Finnish, but a few spoke Ital-- ian, and some used other languages. By com- parison 15 per cent of the class usually speak no English to their fathers today, and 14 per cent to their mothers. Thirty-six per cent of the fathers and 52 per cent of the mothers were born in foreign lands, But the remainder were largely stay-at-home people, as 57 per cent of the fathers and 43 per cent of the mothers were born in the Up- per Peninsula. Those who have followed these reports from year to year will realize that the nationality patterns have been the same for a number of yearsz The Finnish are the best represented, then the English, the Swedish, the lesser numbers of the Italians, French, and Norwegians. There has, of course, been considerable in- termarriage among nationalities, since 36 out of the 111 have parents of different nationali- ties and 75 parents of the same nationality. Al- though some cynics are inclined to disagree with us, if we assume that men do do the pro- posing, then of these 111 men, none of the 35 who were Finnish married girls of other nation- alities, only 2 of the 12 Italians did so, 10 of the 24 who were English did marry girls of other nationalities, 9 of the 17 who were Swe- dish married non-Swedish girls, 6 of the 9 French married other than French girls, and 5 out of the 6 Norwegians married outside of the Norwegian nationality. About one student in five, 21.6 per cent, have only one parent living, 9 per cent having lost their mothers and 1216 per cent having lost their fathers. Divorce is relatively uncommon. About 2'5 per cent of the class do not live with both parents either because of death or separa- tion. Eight of the 111 have mothers who are working. No doubt it is a surprise to the faculty but our class is decidedly not lazy. In fact about two-thirds of the class have jobs in their spare time. The commonest employment for the boys is carrying papers. followed by working in stores, and setting pins in bowling alleys, Sev- eral have unusual occupations. One operates projectors in the local theatre. Another one, however, has us definitely worried. He spends his time wrecking cars. We have also ridden with several who might consider entering this line of work. The girls manage to keep them- selves busy in their spare time, for the most part by caring for children, but also by N. Y. A. work, followed by general housework. The old-fashioned family has not entirely dis- appeared. Only 20 per cent of the class have no chores or daily tasks to perform. Three out of five families of students have gardens. In their efforts to secure a broad cultural background our students have not remained at home. Eighteen of the class have witnessed fwe hope that is all that it amounted toj, a court trial, 57 of the class have attended a city council meeting, and 46 have been pres- ent at a party caucus. This rather unusual interest shown in governmental affairs is prob- ably due to pressure from our social science department. For further information see any senior. The financial status of the railroads has not been alleviated to any great extent by the ac- tivities of this class. Over one-half the class have not taken a long trip on a train since Page Twenty-Eight - x they were in the seventh grade, four out of five of the class have never slept in a sleeper. Almost one-half the class has not slept in a. hotel. In fact it seems that members of the class prefer something solid under their size twelves, since only seven have taken ve1'y ex- tensive airplane rides, and only two of these were real cross-country trips, Looking into the health of the class it seems evident that the medical profession is not through with these students yet, only 10' per cent have been operated on for appendicitis, and about one-third of the class have not been vaccinated for smallpox. - In these troublesome times the thought of war is uppermost in the minds of everyone. The homes of members of this -class have not escaped its consequences. Almost one-fourth of the class have fathers who served in the last war, although few were overseas. Approxi- mately one-third of the class have brothers reg- istered in the draft. It is very interesting to note that in only four cases fathers of mem- bers of this class, who served in the last war, have sons registered in this draft. Whether this is merely coincidence, or whether it is a direct and intended consequence of making the upper age limit 35 We do not know, but it is evident that drawing most of the draftees from families whose fathers were not veterans will have a decided effect upon public response to the draft. As a graduating class this group will have more advantages than any for a decade, with regard to securing jobs. The high school ad- ministration has recently completed a survey of the employment status of the Classes of 1937 to 1940 inclusive. This is being kept as up-to- date as possible. It may shed some light on what this Class of 1941 can look forward to in the next few years, if not called to military service and if conditions remain reasonably nor- mal. Of the Class of 1940, 55 are working full time, 19 part time, and 19 were unemployed at the time of the survey. For the Class of 1937, G6 are working full time, 6 part time, and 12 were unemployed. At the time of the survey 35 of the Class of '40 were continuing their education in some manner, 36 of the Class of '39, 31 of the Class of '38, and 25 of the Class of 1937 were doing so. The commonest sort of full time work for the Class of 1940 was working at the Gossard, 26 being employed there. Next came work as a clerk, then working at common labor, in a mine, in an ofiice, and as a domestic. For the other classes the numbers were more evenly di- vided among these activities, the Class of 1937 having its largest representation in offices, fol- lowed by work at the mines and in the Gossard, clerking relatively few working as domestics, and a much wider variety of other jobs. Un- fortunately, the survey records 'as to marital status are incomplete, so we can make no fore- cast for the Class of '41 on this score. From the foregoing it is evident that the tendency in the past has been for new grad- uates to go 'at once into completing their edu- cation or some of the more routine or less de- sirable tasks. From there on they soon gravi- tate out to something better or more to their liking, The number working part time de- creases quite rapidly, 'and the number unem- ployed decreases steadily but more evenly. It also appears that about one in fifteen of each class will be...more or less consistently unem- L X . I as ' --- ployed, either because of disabilities, faulty work habits, or just bad luck. In the long run the Class of 1941 may expect to experience about the same shift of fortune as these classes of the past few years unless military and de- fense service intervenes. One thing is clear. It is imperative that we, the Class of '41, keep our heads during this time of artiicial prosperity. It is certain that there are difficult days ahead. We were too young to learn from experience during the last depres- sion. To be successful in meeting future situa- tions we must prepare for them now, gather all of the possible information that we can and then frankly and courageously face the facts. On- ly thus can we avoid being swept away with a mad world. --THOMAS MUDGE CLASS GIFTATORY---PROPHECY W'itches dancing around cauldon: VVliile the night is yet black and deep with witchery, W'hile weird winds woo the roaming spirits While the roaring thunder cracks with a livid flash, Let us stir these wondrous potions we have gathered Till it spits and froths its bubbling prophecy For each member of the Class of Forty-One.

Among these are the pyramids of Egypt, which, by far, are still the most imposing of all human struc- tures. Generally, these sepulchral monuments have served as records of individual accomplish- ments or memorials like the Taj Mahal, which was erected by an Indian prince in honor of his wife. These have been of interest to 'archi- tects, archeologists, historians, and students, but have not furthered the opportunities for the advancement of education. VVe, the Class of 1941, leave as our Memorial, a recorder, which will supplement the educa- tional opportunities offered by our High School. This machine can be used by the Music De- partment and the Speech Correction and Pub- lic Speaking Groups. Recordings made of vo- cal, instrumental, and speech practices can be used by the instructors in the classrooms for the detection of errors and for discussion. The recordings made of the outstanding perform- ances can be used for instructional and recrea- tional purposes. Thus the school can acquire a collection of records which should prove val- uable for school activities. Because of the ever increasing importance of the spoken word we hope that this gift will be especially use- ful to the students in speech work. We feel that this recording instrument Will be of inestimable value in improving the in- structional facilities of our school, and trust that it will show our deep appreciation of what our school did for us. May it keep alive the memory of the Class of 1941. --ELSIE ALANKO SALUTATORY Preserving Democracy Parents and friends, we, the Class of 1941, are happy to welcome you tonight to our coni- menccment exercises, which mark the culmina- tion of our years in High School. For your encouragement and interest in our progress we are truly grateful. Democacy is today undergoing a crucial test throughout the world. The threat of a new order calls for a soul-searching inspection of democratic ideals in us, citizens of the world's greatest democracy, We know that many are proclaiming that democracy is an outmoded form of government, that totalitarianism is the order of the day. We believe, however, as Americans, that democracy is the best way of life, and our conviction is strengthened when we examine this new order, for totalitarian- ism itself is the best advertisement for democ- racy. When the proponents of dictatorship seek to elevate their own systems and destroy democracy, they but, exalt, in our eyes, what they attempt to abase. A comparative analysis of the merits of the present world orders well indicates the superiority of democracy. The founders of this nation clearly defined the future of our country when they framed the Declaration of Independence and the Con- stitution with its Bill of Rights. They knew what kind of a country they desired, and they founded it to secure the rights of man, and, in order to form a more perfect Union, estab- lish justice, insure domestic tranquillity, pro-- vide for the common defense, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our pos- terity. In these -immortal documents they ex- pressed implicit nfidence in the future. To- day these princi R have as potent a signifi- cance as ever ' re in the ,history of the United States. , the firm foundation laid by Page Thirty-TW4' the builders of this democracy, our nation has progressed. Democracy, to be preserved, calls for num- erous qualities in us, as individuals, today. One of the most important of these quali- ties is the individuality of man. We must con- tinue to recognize and encourage individual ef- fort. Let us not emulate the totalitarian states, where man is but a mere means to achieve the ends that power-mad dictators may desire. Where mass regimentation fiourishes, the spir- it of the individual dies. It is through indi- vidual effort that much of the progress of man- kind has been achieved. The individual must be taken into consideration and his personality developed, rather than quenched, for the main- tenance of democracy depends, in a large meas- ure, on respect for the human worth of the in- dividual. Education, is another essential to be stressed. for an enlightened citizenry is one of the best safeguards of democracy. We have developed, throughout the years, a system of education comparing favorably with any in the world, it is, moreover, a free system where each citizen may acquire an education. Our country's build- ers fully realized the importance of education when they stated in the Northwest Ordinance of 1787, that, , Religion, Morality, and Knowl- edge being necessary to good Government and the happiness of mankind, Srchools and the means of Education shall be forever encouraged. Our American schools teach freedom of expression, not suppression, They are alive to the indi- vidual propensities of each student and teach him to think for himself. Let us continue to emphasize democracy in our schools, as well as in, other phases. of life. f 'Responsibilgigggiis one of the elements that vgpi- wg., 15 binds democracy, for democracy implies not only rights and privileges, but obligations as well. Every citizen should be cognizant of the fact that it is not only his privilege but also his duty to participate in making democracy an evident reality. Every privilege entails a cor- responding duty, every authority a responsibil- ity, every responsibility an accounting. We must show the world that free men can disci- pline themselves. The preservation of our democracy requires emphasis on the Christian virtues of brother- hood, tolerance, and charity-attributes notice- ably and tragically lacking in the totalitarian s.ate. It calls for a revived conception of the brotherhood of mankind, tolerance for the rights of others, and charity toward our fellowmen. These principles are inherent traits of democ- racy, without them democracy cannot survive. Faith in our future and a sense of confidence are essential in preserving democracy. As our forefathers were confident of the future, so we need to be confident of our future. We need the same faith in our national destiny that the early pioneer had. His watchword was Onward, and he lived by that watchword. We need to have conndence that, as democracy- has been the American way of life in the past, so it can and will continue to be in the future. Our nation, conscious of its heritage and cleav- ing to the same principles which guided our forefathers, can face the future with assur- ance. To be preserved, democracy must be an ac- tive, working democracy. The freedom that was won for us over one hundred fifty years ago did not permanently provide us democracy. This freedom is not to be regarded as an accom-- plished deed, forever ours, but must be Won again and again. It is said that the twentieth century is the American century. Certainly this implies a challenge. We must continue to be the vanguard of democracy in the world. As we have proved a model for other nations, which have based their constitutions on our own, as we have shown how democracy can be effective, we are challenged to be leaders in its preservation. A living democracy .cannot fail. -CARI. TUPALA PURPOSEFUL LIVING I broke my necklace. The beads rolled about on the floor. A second before they had all been together, strung on one string, part of one lovely, shining whole. Now they were nothing -only shattered bits of brightness, and scat- tered like that they meant nothing. I sat hold- ing the broken string in my hands, thinking. A man's life is like that, I thought. A man's life is like a necklace-so many little things on one string! Little acts, little experiences, little thoughts, all on one string of purpose or faith. And when they are strung together like that, a man's life means somethingg even the smallest part of his life has value and signifi- cance. But if it isn't strung together, if there isn't one purpose in him, or one faith, that runs through everything, then his life is as meaning- less as a broken necklace-just scattered beads Hung aimlessly about. We must learn to see the value of every act in ordinary life. Every little matter contributes to something big. In pioneer days, scattered over most of the country on sunny slopes were quiet little villages of dingy, neglected, tum- ble-down shacks, half sunk in weeds, which could be rented for a pittance a week. Of modern conveniences there Wasn't a sliver, neither blanket, bed nor chair, table nor run- ning water, nor the money with which to in- stall thern. But yet in the face of all these inconveniences, thousands, tens of thousands of men came to this country to live fully and die with a string of things accomplished. The drowsy, abundant earth shook with the violence of their activity, and there was no moment when they were not terribly alive in a land that had fomerly drifted in dreams. The life of these early people had a purpose, probably a much greater purpose than most of us today have even stopped to realize. Unfortunately we have forgotten the dignity and honest joy that lie in all simple services of life. For there's never a loaf of bread baked or a shirt mended or a row of potatoes hoed, but a miracle happens- the miracle of a man working with life, feed- ing his heart as Well as his flesh with the la- bor of his hands and dumbly touching another Greater Hand. Q 9, Real life isn't good enough for us any more. Trashy movies and magazines have driven us dream-dazed. But no silver screen can show the misery and monotony, the homesickness that gnawed like acid at those pioneer women's hearts. No technicolor, however radiant, can do justice to the courage that flamed beneath their ragged gowns, and drove them on despite heartbreak, terror' and death. In this modern, conceited age of ours we learn how to wear tails and eat caviar and talk highbrow. Betty Brown is a typical example of a girl with such highbrow ideas, Betty wants to be a writer, or rather dreams of being a writer. It is highly improb- able that she would like being one if the chance came, for her idea of writing has no relation- ship whatever to the actual Work of writing. It's a very glamorous affair, that dream. It is a sort of Hollywood version of a literary ca- reer-incense filled studios, fascinating, scin- tillating circles of Bohemian friends, travel abroad to ancient Rome and Gay Paree, adven- tures, lovely mansions shaped from memories of Old France, streamlined automobiles, and ever so many other wonderful, charming things far beyond the reach of a high school grad- uate. Many of us dream and imagine high-powered things for ourselves, just as Betty did. And in dreaming these dreams, we lose our grip on the real purpose of life. No professional writ- er on earth ever wrote like that, or wanted to write like that. Moreover, real writers dote on obscurity and general dinginess of atmosphere, which would give spotlight Betty the jitters in an hour. No, it's certain Betty wouldn't like being a writer, even if she could. She hates to study. She has no love for words, no C0111- pelling interest in people, none of those hung- ers and urges that lie behind all sincere writ- ing. Books are scenery for Betty, not a vital need. Many other typical modern lives, just like Betty's have turned into blind 'alleys because in our vain search for hap fness we evade a realistic purpose in our li b The popular opinion of happiness is som ,liing remote, in- e Thirty-Three -A R tangible, impossible to clutch and grip and weave into the very fibers of our lives. It is easy to remember when men worked twelve hours a day, six days a week, without a yearly vacation, for wages that would hardly meet their meager needs. They didn't complain, these men, for they felt that there was a pur- pose behind it all. In this day of machines, we need to find our occupation in a field in which we can apply our creative ability and our own originality, a field in which we can expand to our heart's desire, and add our personal tange and zest to our life's work. For after all we spend the great- est part of our day at this chosen vocation. If possible We should select our life's work in a field in which we are really interested. In case, we can find only factory or office work in which we cannot very well exercise our creative ability, We may choose a hobby in which we can put our hands and minds to workg for there is no better use for our stored-up ener- gies and our creative abilities than a hobby. GRADUATION AND It was June in an eastern industrial town of a population of 50,0'00. Five hundred and fif- ty-four high school seniors with smiling faces and light steps were preparing for the grad- uation exercises. Inexperienced, hopeful, they met in their high school auditorium, before proud parents and happy friends. Five hun- dred and fifty-four young hearts pounded as diplomas were received. These young men and women were eager to find their place in the world. But what were the results? One hun- dred of them were fortunate enough to go to college, but the 450 others, starry-eyed and idealistic, made the long twisting chain of job- seekers four hundred and fifty links longer. They did as we've seen members of our fam- ilies do. As bright and eager as a new day they started out early each morning to answer advertisements, speak to businessmen and em- ployers leaving their names, About 100 of these 450 job-seekers found employment, but the others kept on looking-tramping streets, pleading with businessmen, answering questions. These youths had bumped headlong into the horrible realization that they Were not needed. In these times, when the rush and excitement of war dominates men's attention, we are in- clined to overlook national and world problems which may, in the course of time, affect us more vitally than the war itself. Underneath the roaring and blasting that shake the world to- day there is a seething murmur of steadily growing unemployment. Temporarily the war drowns out that murmur, but the war will end some day. Mines and factories will drastically curtail productions. Many millions of workers will be turned into the streets without homes, without food for their families, without hope. Even in the midst of the present war boom there are millions in our country who cannot find work, who are dissatisfied and desperate, whose only hope for existence lies in the long drawn out war. This temporary surge in business is not a lasting solution. After it is over, many mil- lions more Will be unemployed. Lean, hungry, dazed-looking people will strive feebly to escape the dark dungeons of charity, where there is no light nor hope, but utter disappointment. Page Thirty-Four T. r D do fs There is nothing wrong with simple life, the common tange of honest, earthy things. Deep in the heart of us, strong in the woof of us are the makings of simple meat and common growth which have nourished us since the world began. We do not need to waste our youth chasing an impossible dream, as Betty did, we can find more happiness in real purposeful living. Perhaps our existence would mean more to us if we could go back, to the days our fathers' fathers knew. These people made life lovely in a wilderness and wove such beauty that its web endures today against the ugly realism of soul-quenching machines. They fought, they toiled, they endured long tides of pain, and yet they were never so harried that they forgot to smile, never so poor they could not make an art of life. If only men would leave their dingy desks, their dreams of pomp, their stiff society just once a year, if they would put on the garments of humility and go back to simple needs and simple faith, they would find a pur- pose in existence. -ALMA HANSEN UNEMPLOYMENT Cities and towns will again return to their ghost- ly silent state. The problem of unemployment has existed since the beginning of the Industrial Revolu- tion and has been growing steadily in serious- ness for over a century. The two most import- ant causes have been the steady increase of population and the replacement of men by ma- chines. For hundreds of years, the problem of excess population was solved by migrations to new, sparsely settled or unsettled portions of the earth. The discovery of America furnished a frontier for many generations of the overflow- ing populations of Europe. But today we have no frontier to which our millions can turn. The unemployed and the young people of the past generations moved westward in caravans, over hills, down valleys, over prairies. Always the cry to the unem- ployed youth was, Go West, young man, go West. They knew that there land was free and plentiful, Miniature villages became busy, hustling centers that turned into cities over night. And so the frontier absorbed every young, rising generation, as well as those who were replaced by the rapid growth of machin- ery. But today we have no frontier. The conti- nent is Hlled. Many parts of it are even set- tled too thickly. Millions of acres of farm land have been depleted. Blinding, swirling sand- storms have descended upon millions of Mid- Western families, carrying away in dusty whirl- pools the few things they depended upon in or- der to live. Desolate, deteriorated shacks can be seen for miles around, emaciated children who haven't the energy to run about and play, sit to stare blank-eyed over endless prairie lands, lands where crops once were profuse and lux- uriant, lands that are now mere deserts. Many forest areas are equally desolate. Mining towns that were once prosperous are now ghost towns. Before the present war boom many industrial towns were littered with ragged, unshaved idle men, partly because of a decrease in produc- tion, but chiefly because men had been replaced by machines. In one ghost town having a pop- ulation of fifty thousand, new machines have replaced sixty-four per cent of the total num- ber of workers within a period of ten years. In 1939 fifty-two per cent were dependent upon relief, and twelve per cent were supported by the Works Progress Administration. No won- der they were actually! happy to hear that a war was brewing in Europe! It is true that the na- tural increase of population still is a large fac- tor in our problem, but the greatest cause of unemployment is the machine. It is sometimes claimed that the growth of new industries will alleviate the burden and bring about a readjustment. Yes, new indus- tries have absorbed many workers, but they have in return snatched the means of existence from thousands of others. Once elegant horse-carriages were the chief means of transportation. Thousands of people then were engaged in carriage, wagon, and har- ness manufacture, horse-trading, and the proces- sing of leather and hides. These businesses flour- ished until the automobile industry, with its vast machinery, rolled over the country,crushing these earlier industries and swelling the tide of un- employment. We are told that the radio and movie industries absorb many men thrown out of work by machines. Yet the radio industry has almost killed the sale of pianos and other musical instruments. These same new indus- tries have taken away jobs from thousands of musicians who formerly occupied the pits of theatres in every city and town throughout the land. Thousands of singers, actors, and ac- tresses were turned out of the theatres, and screens and projectors were put in their places. Young people between the ages of eighteen and twenty-five form a large proportion of the army of unemployed. Those more advanced in age are entrenched in the positions that are available. There is little opportunity for the beginner, the young, the inexperienced. Yet it is this younger group that is likely to become restless. It is this younger group, not restrained by customs and traditions, that have no ties with the past. They are idealistic and impatient and take readily to new theories that promise a better world. The war has created a temporary calm. How consoling it would be to shut our eyes and say, There is no danger, the problem will solve it- self. But when the war is over, when thou- sands of industries shut down and millions will be turned out, the whirlwind will strike. Are we prepared to face it? Are we making plans now in anticipation of that time? Or shall we be caught unprepared and, in our panic, do the insane, desperate, brutal things that are the curse of Europe today! Will the end of war bring dictatorship to America? Will it bring tyranny-, ruthless exe- cutions, brutal punishments? It is no easy matter to decide what must be done to avert the danger. How shall we meet it? Only the best brains in the world may know the answer. Yet every conscientious person must think. As citizens of a democracy we cannot simply dismiss the mat- ter from our minds, for the situation is astound- ing, threatening, dangerous. Somewhere there must be a plan or a scheme that will absorb the increasing millions of unemployed, a scheme that will make it possible for the thousands who are graduating this year to look into the future with new hope, a scheme not based on violence or brutality, but on some sane, or- derly, democratic procedure. -ELEANOR HILL VALEDICTCRY Learning to Live Have you ever read about the tragic life of Richard Cory? And he was rich--yes, richer than a king- And admirably schooled in every grace: In fine, we thought that he was everything To make us wish that we were in his place. But further in the story we learn that while everyone envied him and struggled to attain his position, Richard Cory went home and put a bullet through his head. Why should a wealthy man, who was the idol of others in his community, whose social posi- tion and wealth were the goal of other men, go home and put a bullet through his head? He had no worries, such as the lack of money, un- employment, or a feeling of insecurity. Then what could have been his motive? The explanation is that Mr. Cory had not yet learned to live. He considered life chiefly in terms of dollars and cents. He thought that happiness depends upon wealth, fame, reputa- tion, and honor. There is not only one Richard Cory in this world, but there are thousands, who like him. have not learned how to live. Of course, much unhappiness is caused by the la-ck of money, Yet it is strange that men with comfortable fortunes should consider life not worth living. It is hard to understand un- til one realizes that there is more to living than merely acquiring money and things and fame. Every person who has health and a fair de- gree of economic security can be happy,-pro- vided that he has learned how to live, learned that happiness does not depend upon wealth and social position, but upon the number of inter- esting things that he finds in life. We do not need to go to the ends cf the earth to find those interesting things. We can find them every- where if we stimulate our -curiosity. We need only to open our eyes to the world around us and train ourselves to see its myriads of fas- cinating phenomena. There is the world of nature which those of us who live away from the large cities always have the opportunity to observe. But do we really appreciate it? Have we learned to lis- ten to the birds and to study the flowers? Does the wild life of the forest interest us? Do we know all about the birds, the fish, the trees, lakes and rivers? Are we impressed by storms, thunder, and lightning? Do we feel what Words- worth felt when he saw a rainbow? My heart leaps up when I behold A rainbow in the sky ! Yet most people are so unaware of the pro- found revelations in the world of nature that they see it only as an unimportant trivial thing. Then there is the world of art - music, painting, sculpture, literature. The arts alone have made thousands of lives happy. Yet think of all those unfortunate individuals who barely know what the arts are, whose highest literary tastes demand the reading of cheap Western Stories, who are bored by any music which is not of the noisiest type of swing, who see no Page Thirty-Five more in a great painting than in a blank sheet of paper. Su-ch people need to stimulate their curiosity and become familiar with that wonder- land of man's creative efforts. There is perhaps no phase of life more in- teresting than our contacts with human beings and our observation of their behavior, Writ- ers have given us descriptions of ordinary peo- ple and have discovered in them a wealth of fascinating qualities. They have trained them- selves to see those interesting traits, and they enlighten us by presenting details and peculiar- ities which we had never noticed before, which, however, we could have seen if we had kept our senses alert. You can go further in your search for hap- piness by associating with a wealth of ideas. Have you ever observed the conflicts in life, the behavior of men and animals, the brutal strug- gle for life? Have you ever let your mind dwell on the wars of the world? Why must thousands ot' healthy men be ruthlessly massacred or be turned into helpless cripples merely to prove to the world which of two countries is the stronger? Let your thoughts wander in the past to the time when two honorable men found no other way of settling a disagreement than by fighting a duel. Many people erroneously look for happiness in the constant chase after immediate pleas- ures. Like Omar Khayyam, they are extremely pessimistic, living in the constant fear that un- less they go on an intoxicated spree today, death may rob them of all such opportunities in the future. Drink, he tells us in the Ru- bayat, for tomorrow you may be dead. Far too many unhappy individuals today are follow- ing the advice of Omar, looking for happiness in the wine cup, only to find at the bottom of the cup nothing but dregs of despair. There is another phase of life that has often captivated men's attention, namely the mystery of death. Many look at death with terror and shun the thought, yet they seem everlastingly hounded by it. To those who have learned to live, the thought of death is an interesting phenomenon to be faced calmly and philoso- phically. They live a full and rich life, so that Page Thirty-Six when death comes they will be able to say that they have not lived in vain. They attempt to live a clean and honest life, so that death will not seem a terror to them. Some take conso- lation in an after-life. To them the thought of death is a promise of everlasting bliss. Those who have learned to live are not afraid to die. It is a dull soul that moves in the midst of life's riches and is not impressed. It is a blind eye that does not see the world of wonders all about us. It is a deaf ear that is not intrigued by life's discords and harmonies. It must be a sluggish brain that is not stimulated by the rush of events in the world, that does not play with the welter of ideas and philosophies con- stantly streaming in upon us. It is a dead con- science that has never rebelled against injustice. lt is a dead heart that has never aspired to do great things in the world. Those observations, those mental adventures, those experiences and aspirations make life rich and interesting and worth living. See all, says Browning, Hand do not fear the future. Eyes, ears took in their dole, Brain treasured up the wholeg Should not the heart beat once, t'How good to live and learn ! As we are about to leave our school, it is well for us to realize what priceless opportun- ities we have had the last four years. Although learning to live occupies the greater part of :1 lifetime, our school career has given us a found- ation that we could otherwise not have obtained. It seems evident that the training we received here will affect not only our earning capacity for the future, but also our ability to become happy individuals and good citizens of a democ- racv. Now, on behalf of the Class of 1941, I wish to express our thankfulness and our apprecia- tion of what the community, through our school, has done for us. The lshpeming High School has become a part of us, and wherever we may go from here, we shall carry with us facts, skills, habits, associations never to be forgot- ten. -ESTHER HARJ U -4 1 EC + ww ,. .

The exhibit consisted of one hundred tifty reproduc- tions of well-known masterpieces of for-- ty-two famous artists, ranging from the old masters to modern painters. Includ- ed in the exhibit were such great works as Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Sup- per, and Hlllona Lisa, Breton's Song of the Lark, The Blue Boy, by Gains- borough, and the Whistling Boy, by Duveneck. able classroom motion picture screen, a tele- phone from the projection booth to the stage, vocational guidance material, and a picture in memory of Mr. Mattson, the clubls advisor at the time of his death. Included in the well balanced program of educational and broadening opportunities which were offered to the boys this year was the An- nual Upper Pcninsula Older Boys' Conference which was held at Escanaba. A junior member of the Club, Van Quaal, was elected president of next year's conference. The Club assembles once eve1'y Wednesday with one recreation, one supper, and two busi- ness meetingzs a month. Ellie ,Art Txlgihii American art was represented by such artists as Inness, VVinsloW, Homer, Whistler, and Duve- neck. The old art of Europe has inspired these American artists who in turn have contributed many fine works to the art world. The exhibit resulted in the purchasing of three new paintings which will further beautify the interior of the high school. The three pictures purchased are Murillo's 'tltastry Eaters, Cezanne? 'tBlue Vase, and The Bridgel' by Monet. Judging' by the favorable comments made and by the large attendance, the exhibit was, on the whole, a success. 7, 'fx Page Forty-Seven mf ' 1 . -' 1--1 A 1 1 1 I 9 4 -A rw Q1 , Q ' f , 13 X3 67 A 4 ' -'13 Q, , W 'W Z- 11' ' ' ,Q W4 A if '1 4' 3 ..' , , L ,1 1 -H W, X' ' 5 'H 1 , , J fr ,1 1 11 0 11: A 1 1 - W- 1 1 1 ,-'- 11fFfi-1 N 1111.1 ' 11- + 11, 1 1 1 -1-1 1 1 1 wr C11 ,1 L 1, ,.'- , 1 Mm -a I A 1 -f 11 1 .11 - -1 - f 1.11 - 11 11- .. 1 . 1 1 ,, 11? it ' 1' - 'fi' 1 1?

The excursion this year was to the lshpeming Theatre wherc we became acquainted with the business end of thc the- atre as well as its mechanism. lYe were indeed fortunate to have with us Mr. Brack- ett of the Credit Bureau. who so interest- ingly related to us the story of credit: and Mr. Stephen Terrill, assistant postmaster, who explained the functioning of the post- otlice, its growth and importance. and its signilicance in international ahfairs.

The Hunter rum Seniors, alumni, and faculty members of the lshpeming High School were guests of the junior Class at the Annual Prom which was held in the School Gymnasium. There was dancing from nine to twelve, with Jer- ry Salone of Iron Mountain furnishing the dance program. The decorating committee carried out a South American motif. The gymnasium was transformed into a patio, with wrought iron window boxes from which grew the bright colored Howers of Latin America. Around the alcove were found the adobe walls, and the surroundings associated with it. To enter this garden the dancers passed through iron gates. Punch was served from a stone well. Four years ago an Alumni Chorus was organized under the direction of Miss Hel- en Bentley. Former members of the Ish- peming High School Mixed Chorus are eligible for membership. Its chief purpose is to provide opportun- ities for those interested in vocal and chor- 'allye Qdumni fffhnrns al music to participate in this type of ac- tivity. This year the Alumni Chorus held a Sun- day V esper and presented a sacred Cantata, The City of God by H. Alexander Mat- thews. This Cantata proved very success- ful. Director, Helen A.

The band, not being able to appear in uniform for last year's football season, en- tered the season with all the vigor and vi- tality spared from last year. At each home game Cweather permittingj the bland made its appearance in full uniform and pro- vided excellent music at time-out periods and between quarters. During the time be'- tween halves, colorful programs of drills were carried out which usually consisted of the formation of the l. H. the op- posing team's school letters, and a few oth- 'er spectacular maneuvers. The band also appeared at every home game throughout the basketball season.

The band next made a showing at the annual Spring Fes- tival, then the lllemorial Day parade, and finally at the Upper Peninsula Festival at Marquette. .Xmong the outstanding selections of this years band were: XYilliam Tell. over- ture: Merry lYidow, concert march!

The orchestra. not suffering any marked changes from last year and profiting by the previous year's experience, made a very fine showing this year. lt made its first public appearance of the year at the annual Christmas program in the school auditor- ium. This year the orchestra again took an- other definite step toward the classics by introducing into its library Franz Schu- bert's Symphony in B Minor' or The Un- finished Syinphonyf' The orchestra also dealt with lighter and more familiar num- bers such as, '4Song of India by N.

F Aman A The Autobiography of a Rocking Chair Although I am old and gray, I am able to tell my story. When I was young and gay, I was a shiny rocking chair with a beautiful maple finish. How I delighted those young ras- cals in the family, who rocked and rocked on me! But what could I do to prevent them from wear- ing me out? A few years after the death of my mistress I was doomed to suffer loneliness in the cold, dreary attic, for her daughter had modernized the old home. After painted furniture had be- come fashionable, I was hauled down from my resting place and painted a bright blue for the girls' bedroom. Oh, those 'teen age girls would wrap their legs around me and call me f'cute. iVhen the girls considered themselves young ladies, they found me too faded and old. This time I was -carried down the hall to the boys' room. VVell, you can imagine how I felt with A Turn Mrs. Uppington, the wealthiest widow in Greenfield, had the habit of taking her dog, Fifi, for a walk every morning, always using the same route every day. She said it was to give Fifi her needed exercise, but deep down in her mind she knew her figure needed the ex- e1'cise, not Fifi. On this particular morning a new sidewalk was being constructed across the street from the home of the big black cat. Now Mrs. Up- pington had avoided Blackie as much as possi- ble by walking on the opposite side of the street, but this morning she could not. She proceeded cautiously along the sidewalk, looking for Black- those two boys using me! First I was a horse, then a ship, and finally a snow plow. My legs grew wabbly, and soon I became helpless. The boys had to carry me to the garage where they put me with the tools and the dirtiest things imaginable. A month later I was taken out. Imagine my horror and chagrin when I discovered that I was to be repaired with ordinary black tape. I was painted blue and white and put in the clubhouse where I was soon forgotten. There I still stand with cobwebs all over me, but my reminiscences of former days make me gay. Ah, those memories of dainty ladies admiring me and later those of the ,teen age girls, who would straddle my legs. Funny how I miss those mis- chievous rogues climbing over me. Altlwugh they still come to the club, I stand in the cor- ner, unnoticed and filled with sorrow. MARGARET MaeL1-:on I Ffififhiirs ie. Fifi attracted the attention of the cat by his barking, The cat came hissing and spitting at Fifi, who did not seem the least bit fright- ened. Mrs. Uppington shrieked, Helpl Help! VVhat shall I do? Wliat can I do? The cat was the first to strike. She scratched Fifi's nose, and in return Fifi bit the cat's paw. Thus began the battle of the century. When the bedlam was over, Fifi was inno- cently trying to lick her nose, and the cat was slinking into the back door of her house, but Paddy O'Brien, the policeman, was helping Mrs. Uppington down from a nearby tree. -CHARLES A1.I.i:N Marthais Ailment The week before, the children had been play- ing house in the cubby hole near the old up- right piano. The doll's carpet sweeper that they had been using at the time was now nowhere to be found. .The little girl to whom it bc- longed was very much worried. That night there were strange noises in the living room. If one concentrated hard enough, he could dis- tinguish these noises as a conversation. The overstuffed chair spoke to the little tea table. I wonder what's the matter with Mar- tha, the upright piano. She's been acting aw- fully strange lately. Have you noticed her queer actions? This time the tea table spoke. Yes, I have. I used to enjoy listening to little Mary play, but now it's awfully hard to listen to the harsh sounds. I wonder if old Martha's getting warped.

So they did. When they arrived there, they found Martha in great discomfort. They pro- ceeded to go through the usual sympathy rou- tine, in question form. Well, how are you feeling, Martha? You don't seem yourself any more. Has the 'doctor' been here? What did he say was wrong? When will you be better? Martha answered slowly and deliberately. 'fThe piano tuner was here, and he said he could find nothing wrong with me. 'fWell, what's the trouble, then? I-Ie doesn't know, but I do.

K' 55.1 Q' Ishpeming opened this year's debate season with three lettermen back and fifteen others trying for positions on the first team. At the close of the season, the first team consisted of nine students, who had been aided greatly by the second team of seven members. This year's proposition was: Resolved: That the power of the Federal Government should be decreased. The first two decision debates in which Ishpeming- took the negative side of the proposition were with Iron Mountain and Esca- naba. The Ishpeming team won both. The Newberry and Wakefield negative teams were Ishpeming's next opponents. After winning' all four debates of the pre- liminary series, Ishpeming entered the two-day elimination contest held at the Northern State Teachers' College at Marquette. IShD6I'0iUr-Y placed second, losing' on points to Iron Moun- tain. At an assembly, letters were given to the sev- en Sophomore, Junior, and first-year Senior members of the first team, Michigan Forensic Keys to the two Seniors who had debated more than one year, special pins to the six who de- bated in the elimination series, and scholarships to Northern State Teachers' College to the three Seniors who had debated in the elimination ser- ies. Tom Mudge, who had been elected captain of the debate squad, presented the school with the wall plaque and the 1'unner-up trophy. SCHEDULE OF DEBATES PRELIMINARY ELIMINATION DECISION DECISION I. H.

There, wrapped in blankets. we sit on the cold breakwater to watch the sunrise.

The earth was covered with a gloomy as- pect, as if a magic cloak had suddenly de- scended and shut out all light.In the distance a faint rumble could be heard coming clos- er and closer. Suddenly lightning split the sky, blinding sheets of rain came down and drenched the thirsty earth. Trees swayed and moaned from the onslaught of the re- 6 lentless wind. All beings ran for shelter.

After reaching the crest of the hill, you drop suddenly to a semi-subterranean pass- age, with the leaves above forming a chant- illy lace ceiling. The sun shining through the trees turns the brown tloor of earth into a mosaic linoleum. Farther down, a placid lake, like a huge mirror dropped there by a giant, reflects the surrounding scen- ery.
