Yet, to even such a nightmare as this was, a beautiful side has been found. The best qual¬ ities in human nature have been revealed! As a result of this revelation, a new and higher spirit of service was born within us. A won¬ derful transformation, brought about by this spirit of service in the face of common danger, was the drawing of great nations closely together. Whether it was the service known.as the “supreme sacrifice” or that called “conservation of food”, it all tended to revive the belief in the creed that all men were created brothers. Men, upon answering the call of their country to serve a wonderful ideal with their lives, offered the greatest service possible. The women, however, were not to be outdone by the men. Since they could not fighti they did what was next best, they aided those who did fight. Their work, as well as the men’s, shall live forever. “Service is a privilege granted to the lowest and highest, actuated by an impulse of sentiment, faith, and spirit.” In the service given by the women of the civilized world, sentiment and faith were important fac¬ tors, but without the spirit of service and sacrifice, neither of the former could have accomplished much. When the call for women came, they rushed from thousands of homes into shipyards, munition works, engineering shops, while thousands of others who stayed at home prepared various comforts for the men. Then, who does not know of their wonderful work behind the firing lines, help¬ ing the soldieis physically, mentally, and spiritually? This, however, could never have been accomplished but for the wonderful organizing skill Page Forty-Six YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919 B MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL of the women, and above all that new spirit which sprang up in organ¬ izing. Women, who before the war, knew no other organization than that of a Suffrage Society, fell into the work of a world-wide organization with a will, imbued with a new responsibility which they felt was far greater than struggling for the vote. Suffragists and their opponents both forgot political differences in their service for a common and worthy cause. It was just this same new-felt consciousness that made women live and work together, women rich or poor; women of high or lowly birth; Catholic, Protestant, or Jew, just as their brothers in the trenches did. When it was first learned that women were to take an active part in the war, many were skeptical as to their ability to get along together. Many people said as a certain person did: “Oh, Mrs. A. and Mrs. B. never in this wide world can get along together; why they never were known to agree upon anything.” Many learned, to their astonishment, that they did work together. Now, what was it that brought about such a wonderful change? The consciousness of their duty to humanity. After all, why shouldn’t they have agreed? Their sons, brothers, and lovers were fighting in the same trenches. Women learned to do remarkable and useful work, although many of them before the war, did nothing but embroider, crochet, or gossip. A story which forcibly emphasizes this fact is told by Helen Fraser. “A nice, middle-aged lady whose War Savings Association accounts were be¬ ing kept wrongly, when told by one of the National Committee represen¬ tatives that they must be kept fully and correctly, said: ‘Oh, you see, I never did anything before the war but crochet.’ ” Thus, even such women have succeeded in doing useful war work. Need one enumerate and dis¬ cuss Red Cross work, the work in hospitals, in factories, on farms, in push¬ ing loan campaigns, or in conserving food? The common sense way, therefore, in which women of the allied na¬ tions organized aroused the admiration of the entire world. The English, French, and American women, working side by side in the hospitals, in the army clerical departments, in the ordnance depots in France, have grown to understand each other as they never have before. Upon this broadening of mutual understanding the very hopes of the world now rest. And now, fellow classmates, upon you who have lived to see the down¬ fall of autocracy, who will live to see the world live in peace and under¬ standing as one large family, may the great lesson taught by these noble women be impressed everlastingly. May you, too, feel the new spirit of service and use it wherever you go and in whatever you do. Remember, Page Forty-Seven l YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919B MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL it was not organized effort alone which won this war; it was the spirit of co-operation. Though we shall never again meet as a class—our organ¬ ization—let the spirit which made us work and live together for four years in harmony survive. Let us always make our deeds worthy of the best in us, and meet our problems with our whole mind and soul, and we shall have accomplished the hardest task of all. OUR IRLS V ERE PATRIOTIC, Page Forty-Eight SALUTATORY ADMIRAL BEATTY, THE INCARNATION OF THE ALLIED NAVAL SPIRIT BERNARD EMERSON PROCTOR Q ARENTS and friends of the gradu¬ ating class, it is my privilege this evening to extend to you a welcome to these exercises on the behalf of the class of 1919B. During the time we have attended this school, great changes have taken place. The future of great nations, perhaps that of the en¬ tire world, has been altered by the greatest war in all history. The upholders of imperialism and might have been defeated by the defenders of democracy and justice. Many thousands of the finest young men in this country answered the call and went forth to defend these sacred principles. Many will never return, for they gave their all to obtain for others a true and last¬ ing peace. Seven short months ago, this great struggle ended, yet without doubt, had it not been for the great number of men and ships, the immense mass of wealth and material, and the spirit, which this country contributed, the struggle would still be in progress. Our boys, after being trained in this country, were taken safely over seas at the rate of many thousands a month, but this tremendous task could never have been accomplished with¬ out the naval power of the Allies. Prior to the war, the German Imperial Government made the boast that their navy could defeat the combined naval forces of the world, Eng¬ land excepted. They did well to except England, for during the first six months of the conflict, the English took the German navy by surprise and were able to block up a great part of the German High Seas Fleet in the Kiel Canal. German inventiveness, however, came into play in a short time, and entire squadrons slipped through the blockade. These ships crossed the English channel and bombarded several unprotected English cities on the coast. No extensive damage was done, but the inhabitants Page Forty-Nine YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919B MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL were terrified and seemed to lose all confidence in their own navy, It was discovered that Prince Louis, first Sea Lord of the English Admiralty, was of German birth and on this account Lord Fisher was chosen to take his place. He checked the raiders considerably and started on an enterprise which was to attempt the capture of the Dardanelles by bombardment with long range naval guns. This attempt was a complete failure, and because of public criticism Lord Fisher was removed and Sir Henry Jackson was selected to succeed him. These were all capable men, and each did his best for England, but they lacked the vigor, spirit, and unifying power which is so necessary to make such an organization completely victorious. They needed the confidence to hunt the foe in his own ground and to fight to win instead of playing a waiting game. When Sir David Beatty was appointed admiral of the Grand Fleet, the tactics were immediately changed to the offensive. Instead of waiting for submarines to attack the battle fleet, this dashing, daring admiral personally led raids of fast cruisers into the naval bases of the enemy, al¬ ways going on his own cruiser, the Lion, which could not have been more fittingly named. Under the convoy of armed cruisers and submarine de¬ stroyers, the merchant fleets were protected from submarine attacks and a series of mine barrages were laid in every channel in the North Sea from the Norwegian coast to the most northern point of Scotland. These prep¬ arations took time, but they were accomplished, and accomplished by men with the zeal so characteristic of their commander. The old English fighting spirit revived, under the influence of the genius of this great Admiral, who dared everything and feared nothing. Shortly after Beatty’s appointment, the United States entered the war and immediately dispatched a large squadron to become a part of the Grand Fleet, which had already been increased by a number of French and Italian cruisers. The American ships, as well as the others, were to act under the command of Sir David, who united these forces into an invin¬ cible unit which was victorious in several decisive battles, after which the Germans hardly dared to come out of cover except in submarine attacks. The spirit of these allied forces can be seen in the personality of their great leader. Admiral Sir David Beatty is but forty-six years of age, being the youngest admiral in the service, a titled member of the nobility! a holder of many distinguished orders, and a sportsman of known ability! He is a man who puts his whole heart into everything he undertakes, whether work or play. An incident illustrating this characteristic is re¬ lated in a letter from an American ensign serving in the Grand Fleet. This American officer is a tennis player of repute, and as tennis is the Admiral’s favorite sport, the American was invited one afternoon to play doubles with the commander against two English opponents. The naval men Page Fifty YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919B MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL seemed to be losing the set when the Admiral, in his pleasant yet earnest manner, simply said, “Come, come, we can’t let things stand like this. It would never become us to be defeated.” Although this was said lightly, there was behind it all the determination of fighting blood which had won so many victories. From that moment Beatty and the young Ensign took a new grip on the game and played with such zest that they finally won the closely contested set. It was this same fight-to-the-finish, never-to-be- defeated spirit of Beatty’s which so permeated the Grand Fleet from its leader to the lowest seaman that the German commanders lost heart and after Beatty took command, not one single allied vessel of any kind was captured or sunk in the English channel. As a result of the careful preparations of the Admiral, 300,000 of our fresh American troops were able each month to pour into France in an uninterrupted stream, turning the tide at Chateau Thierry, and uniting with the English and French veterans to complete the great final drive of the war. On the eleventh of November, 1918, the armistice was signed, caus¬ ing all hostilities to cease, but the allied fleet continued its unceasing pa¬ trol, every moment expecting some new menace from those who considered a treaty but a “scrap of paper.” By the terms of this armistice, Ger many was obliged to give up a large per cent of her fleet for internment. As to what course she would pursue when the appointed time came for the sur¬ render of these ships, was doubtful. After long months of waiting, of in¬ cessant drills, toils, and duties practised in the hope of conquering the German fleet, the entire allied naval forces under the Admiral slipped out of the Firth of Forth early in the morning of the 21st of November. Through the clouds of mist and fog, this long, seemingly endless chain of cruisers, submarine destroyers, torpedo boats, and dreadnoughts formed two parallel lines, two miles apart. All the ships had their guns trained toward the area between, decks cleared, and the crews at their fighting stations. At 10.30 A. M. (ten thirty A. M.) exactly, the commander of the German High Seas Fleet stepped aboard Admiral Beatty’s flagship and surrendered, without a single shot in their behalf, five battle cruisers, nine battleships, seven light cruisers, and forty-nine destroyers. These seventy great ships were ordered to steam up the long lane between the allied forces and were convoyed to England. Never before in the history of the world has there been so splendid and spectacular a victory, and it was due to Admiral Beatty, the incarnation of the allied naval spirit, that the German Kaiser’s sinister dream of sea dominion vanished forever and that today the highways of the sea are free to all nations. Page Fifty-One ORATION THE MENACE OF BOLSHEVISM ARTHUR JAMES BUSHELL O NE year ago only one apparent force was opposing the Anglo-Saxon ideal of a democratic world. This was au¬ tocracy as embodied in the Central Empires. It was then generally believed that the military defeat of Germany and her Associate powers would remove the last obstructions to the re¬ organization of Europe on democratic lines. Hardly had this task been accomplished, how¬ ever, when a new peril appeared, Bolshevism. It came to us unwelcomed. Victory brought with it a mood of sweetness and com¬ placency, and a yearning for lasting peace. And then the horizon sud¬ denly flared with this new menace, and peace now seems far away. The world does not yet completely understand that the thing now generally known as Bolshevism is really but another name for autocracy. It is only now that we are beginning to realize our blindness to Bolshevism. Through the long months of the war it has been growing insidiously; and like a huge loathsome carrion bird it has fed upon our mistakes, and fattened, raven like, in the devastation of the world-conflict. And so it has swooped upon us and caught us numb and unaware. It will, therefore, be worth while to recall a few fundamental facts that are not open to question. First, Bolshevism stands for the immoral principle that might makes right, that the end justifies the means. Le- nine has repeatedly expressed this view, and the whole Bolshevist revo¬ lution was, of course, based upon it. The first Russian Revolution was morally justified. It rested on the manifest will of the majority of the people, but the second or Bolshevist revolution had no such basis. It rested on the autocratic power of a conscienceless minority. Democracy, which was represented by the Constituent Assembly, was tyrannically overthrown, and in its place was put “the dictatorship of the proletariat.” The new rulers never pretended that they had received a mandate from the people as a whole. They were usurpers. Their authority rested rage Fifty-Two YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919B MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL on brute might. And yet we are told that Bolshevism is “An experiment in direct democracy in the control of both industry and government.” So far is this from being the case that what we have in it is simply an ex¬ periment in a new form of tyranny. Bolshevism rests on no moral grounds and on no principles of justice. The leaders of the Bolshevist movement are men of “absolute moral indifference.” In the second place, Bolshevism represents the immoral principle of class war. This is the very basis of the whole movement. The mov e¬ ment derives its entire inspiration from the corrupt and corrupting doc¬ trine of class hatred. That has been the staple of Lenine’s preaching through the years. It is a doctrine also that, in his opinion, is quite as applicable in America and England as it is in Russia. That the whole movement is a class movement and that it is proposed to exclude all pro¬ fessional classes, all employers, everybody except those who worked with their hands, was the fact upon which the leaders insisted. If we should exclude from the government of New York City all the bankers, lawyers, professors, writers, journalists, and business men, large and small, and centre the political power exclusively in the hands of the garment work¬ ers of the East Side, we would have something that would approximate the new political organization which these extremists had planned. If any one has any doubt as to the dangerous and immoral character of Bol¬ shevism, I commend to him the reading of the entire letter from Lenine to the American workmen. A third basal immorality in Bolshevism is its attitude toward the family. To what extent women have been actually nationalized is a ques¬ tion. The Russian conscience would probably not permit a very wide ex¬ tension of it. That this policy is completely in harmony with the pro¬ fessed tenets of the Bolshevik leaders, no one has questioned. In the “Communist Manifesto” by Karl Marx and Frederick Engles, which is accepted as authority by the Bolsheviki, it is clearly admitted that what the Communists look forward to is “an openly legalized com¬ munity of women.” And in this connection it may be noted that one of the two Americans who were designated to confer with the Bolsheviki was Professor Herron, a man who has said that “the coercive family will pass away with the coercive economic system.” These fundamental immoralities are the significant things in con¬ nection with Bolshevism. They reveal its true spirit and animus. Only a blind leader of the blind can fail to see in Bolshevism one of the most formidable revolts against Christianity that have appeared in the entire history of the church. Bolshevism and Prussian militarism stand today as the two arch-representatives of Anti-Christ. Prussianism, fortunately Page Fifty-Three YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919B MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL has already gone down to defeat as the result of the moral indignation of mankind. It is hoped that before long Bolshevism will meet a similar fate as a consequence of its own inherent depravity. To admit that such theories could gain important support in the United States would be to admit that all the money and the effort which you citizens have expended upon public education has brought us no re¬ sults ; it would be to admit that as a nation we are willing to cast into the scrap heap all those ideals laid down by our forefathers, and accepted as the firm foundation for every detail of the nation which we have con¬ structed. A reign of so-called Bolshevism in the United States would be the voluntary return of an intelligent people to those primary stages of human progress when men lived in bands or tribes, fought in bands or tribes, and were subject to the undeveloped instincts of sheer barbarism. A world is to be reconstructed. A new social mansion is to be reared. Which shall be the architect, evolution and its certainties, or revolution with its vague, ineffable dreams? The future of history waits upon the answer. Page Fifty-Four PROPHECY PROPHECY OF THE CLASS OF 1919 B RUTH BETSEY LOVEJOY © URSTING into her fullest radiance with the entry of 1919, peace has blessed the year with those innum¬ erable and infinite blessings which she, alone can bring. Mighty nations locked in conflict have ceased the clash of arms and the roar of cannon, and as each transport brings still an¬ other regiment home we indeed realize the true meaning of peace among men. We realize what it means for the present, but what will it mean and bring to us, the graduating class of 1919B, in the future, after a few years have rolled by and school memories, though no less dearer, form an indistinct and dreamy past? Father Time brings great and small changes to us all and we trust that he will touch us with a lenient hand and lead us on and up¬ ward. But the future seems a distant state and time seems slow to those who are eagerly awaiting the tide of fortune and fate, so I have passed over the pages of the next ten years and have read and explored what the aged penman has written for each of us on the unstained pages of 1930. Writing the date June 25th large and distinctly, the old gent took me by the hand and pointed with his crooked wand toward a building which I knew at once to be Malden High, but not the Malden High I had left eleven years before. The main building still remained but many addi¬ tions had been made, one of these particularly catching my attention. It was a very beautiful building which I judged from the confusion forth¬ coming to be devoted to manual art work. Approaching the building, I noticed a copper plate which read: Dedicated January 1, 1930. Theodore Smith, Architect. Page Fifty-Five YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919 B MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL I cannot say I was surprised for Teddy Smith showed great skill in this line even while in High as many admirers of the design in the school li¬ brary could testify. While I stood admiring the building a small freckle-faced individual came up and suggested that I see the building from the inside. Acting on his suggestion I did so. As I entered the door who should extricate himself from an admiring group of scholars but Harry Crossley, our masculine blonde. He was just as bashful as ever but he certainly proved entertaining, and as I was about to leave he urged me to visit the main building for a little surprise. Wondering what the surprise could be I ran up the steps and as I did so I nearly collided with a short, stout gentleman who looked quite familiar. I could not resist turning for a second look, and as I did so he turned simultaneously. Then I knew him. He was Harry Kalker who had just obtained an order from the principal for several hundred copies of his new German grammar. When I told him I thought he certainly must be very brilliant to write a book that would find so much favor with the principal, Harry smiled and said, “Well, I’ve known him so long that of course he’s prejudiced.” Just at this moment our conversation was interrupted by the prin¬ cipal’s secretary, a businesslike little lady who was bringing Harry a sample book he had forgotten. As she spoke to Harry in a very loud and determined voice I could not help recognizing Mary Russell whom I had always remembered for this forwardness of manner. Harry said good¬ bye and left Mary and me to talk over old times. As Mary took me into the principal’s office I noticed a sign over the door reading—Mr. Frank Hall, Principal. Then I realized what Harry meant by his friendship with the principal for the long and short of the Scientific boys were a familiar sight along the corridors. Frank had not changed a bit and told me that I would see other classmates in a few minutes. Hardly had I spoken when Cherria Reynolds, head of the English Department, Char¬ lotte Brier, teacher of French, and Mary Kelliher, who had charge of the attendance, entered the office as the recess bell was ringing. I longed to stay and talk with them but I knew the pages of 1930 would not remain open very long so I said goodbye and started away. As I reached the sidewalk an aeroplane running between Boston and Malden landed to take on a group of passengers. The aviator gave me a smile that so much resembled the Gene Kelley smile of 1919 that there no longer remained in my mind any doubt of who he was. I decided to ride and as the seat beside Gene was empty I took it and soon found out some very interesting facts about his work. Of course the first person I asked him about was Ita and he told me Page Fifty-Six YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919B . ' . MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL that she was assisting Albert Berube, the celebrated Boston artist. By the time he had finished telling me about their successful work we had landed in Boston and after the other passengers had disembarked Gene lifted up a roll of paintings he was taking in town for Ita. From this I could see that Ita was at her old trick of “letting Gene carry this or that.” I asked to see the paintings and I was more than pleased with them for who was the model but Frances Spevak who, as I recollected, could cer¬ tainly assume a striking pose. By this time I was very hungry so, leaving Gene to deliver his par¬ cel, I hurried up Washington Street. As I crossed the street in order to reach a very inviting restaurant I barely escaped being run over by a swiftly moving auto driven by no less a person than Alva Morgan whom I recognized from his sophisticated manner and incidentally from his medico ' s auto plate as following that profession. I had scarcely taken my seat when a pleasant-faced young lady came to take my order. Her voice sounded familiar and as I looked up I at once recognized Gertrude Ath- earn who, after finishing her college course, had arranged with Dora Derby, who owned the restaurant, to work there for several weeks in order to gain material for her book on “The Working System of the United States.” Regaining the street once more I noticed a large procession headed by a charming young lady. A large placard read: “Vote for James Mitchell for Mayor!” As the procession advanced I recognized Marion Fisher who had been persuaded to use her influence in heading a successful campaign for the election of her classmate. Knowing Marion’s ability to lead the men I knew it would be an overwhelming victory for Jimmy. A brightly illuminated sign-board now caught my eye and, after pushing my way through the huge crowd that thronged the sidewalk, I read this announcement: Mr. Earl Levy presents the following seven reel movies: The Fatal Charmer and The Trials of Fillup Fillum Together with high-class vaudeville. I knew that Earl’s training at the Auditorium had helped him to gain this success and as I felt sure of his judgment I bought my ticket and was shown to my seat by the head usheress, a very efficient young lady who discharged her duties in a very businesslike manner. She was no other than Leonice Ruble. As she handed me a program, which I saw to be illustrated by Jennie Strumph, I was amazed at the announcement Page Fifty-Seven YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919 B .-. MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL thereon and as the orchestra led by Marjorie Harper finished playing the popular comic piece “Till We Eat Again”, composed by Miss Rhoda Pop- kin, the same announcement flashed on the screen. Francis Shields, Movie Magnate, Presents Miss Ella Lewin as Vampa, The Fatal Charmer. Then followed Ella looking just as she did in her graduation pictures and it’s no wonder the poor boy in the film fell, anyone would. I more than enjoyed this picture but imagine my further surprise to see in the comedy following a young man who, though his stage name was Mutt McKnutt, was known at M. H. S. as Hymen Goldberg. Dwelling on the influence of the Orpheum on the untrained and innocent high school boys I followed Hymen through his trials and tribulations until he finally faded out. The lights came on and Howard Hollis in a senatorious voice announced: The Celebrated Siamese Twins Frank Hiatt and Harold Holden in Their Death-Defying Trapeze Act. They certainly did some hair-raising stunts but then this was not strange for their stunts back in high school days had the same effect on certain teachers. As I left the theatre I was confused and bewildered for I wanted to see my other classmates and I did not know which way to turn. As if in answer to my need old Father Time again appeared to me with his open book and wrote Washington, at the same time placing a ticket in my hand. Upon inquiry I learned that my train left in two minutes so quick¬ ening my steps I got on board just as the train was abbut to start. As I looked around at my companions who should be sitting opposite me but Lois Blanchard. Lois was just as sweet as ever and told me that she was on her way to Washington to see Sarah Klickstein about some gowns she had ordered from Lois’s exclusive shop in New York. Sarah, who had graduated from B. U. with high honors, was filling an important posi¬ tion in the State Department. Lois also told me that she was travelling to Washington through the courtesy of Samuel Gilman, president of the road, who was as gallant as ever. His general manager, Clayton Dunham, with Sarah Kassels as his private secretary, had proved very efficient. Leaving the train at Washington I bought a newspaper and read that the biggest trial of the year was to be held the next morning at the Court House. My interest was immediately aroused when I read that the defendant, as yet unknown, had engaged the services of the well- Page Fifty-Eight YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919B MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL known lawyer Arthur Bushell and that the case was to be tried before the Honorable Bernard Ostreicher who was famous for his verdicts on notorious cases. This influenced me to make arrangements for remaining at Wash¬ ington until the next morning so, hiring a Gingham, a new machine in¬ vented by Violet George, I made my way to a hotel. The paper had also stated that because of the importance of the trial Mary Maclsaac, the expert stenographer, was to be in court. Remembering Mary’s weakness for notes I decided to write to her to make sure of a seat so I sent the bell-hop for some stationery. Engraved at the top of the stationery was this: Ralph Woods, Proprietor. The next morning as I descended for breakfast I met two gentlemen walking arm in arm whom I knew as Isaac Ruderman and Joseph Rosen. They told me that they had been very successful as business partners in a powder puff factory. In the dining room I met Louise Whorf and Helen Hatch who told me that they were very busy in carrying on a campaign for the uplift of the working class and that they were very sure of success as their movement was a worthy one. I was sorry not to be able to chat with them any longer but as the hour of the trial was approaching I decided to settle my account and hurry to the Court Room. As I was paying my bill I noticed a very officious lit¬ tle man who seemed to be in charge and upon inquiry I found that he was Stanwood Whitcombe who was doing his best to help his friend Ralph manage his affairs. Feeling that he would surely know of the where¬ abouts of Bernard Proctor I asked for him and was told that he had felt it his duty to teach geometry to the wild men of Borneo, having started on his mission several years after graduating from high school. What an eager, curious crowd thronged the Court Room! and what interest and speculation there was as to the identity of the lady defendant who sat heavily veiled. I stood the uncertainty as long as I could and then I, too, craned my neck for a better view of her. Despite her veils I knew her at once. She was the same old Dorothy Roosov. As the trial began I learned that Dorothy was accused by Eva Felch of compiling a shorthand system which threatened to spoil Eva’s sale of books. The trial ended by both ladies agreeing to combine their systems into what would be the most reliable shorthand system in the world. I could not imagine Dorothy without Rose Weis so I asked for this young lady and was told that although Rose and Dorothy were still good friends Rose now had household affairs to attend to as did Caroline Hughes. Just then Florence Levy joined us and told us that she was at Washington for the week settling her personal affairs before she and her Page Fifty-Nine YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919 B MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL secretary Nettie Arluck, left for a tour of the Eastern countries in an appeal for reform in government. A military band was playing as I walked down the avenue and, at¬ tracted by it, I followed the crowd until I came to what, in my estima¬ tion, was the most beautiful building in Washington—the capitol. Down the broad steps was coming a man whom everyone greeted as the Secre¬ tary of State who had just returned from Europe on a diplomatic mis¬ sion of great importance, but whom, despite his heavy beard and mus¬ tache, was still the same Chester McKinley of Malden High. Judging by the plaudits of the crowd, he was as popular a Secretary of the United States as he had been a classmate. A gentleman at my left moved by his pride in Chester spoke up and said, “Isn’t he grand?” Of course I agreed and told him that I had known Chester when he went to high school. At this the gentleman looked rather perplexed and said, “Why, I did too.” Then I knew him to be John O’Brien who told me that he was playing with the Red Soxs who had not lost a game since he joined them. “Well, look who’s here!” was the familiar expression that greeted me as I turned to leave and came face to face with Ruth Patten and Eliza¬ beth Perkins. Ruth, together with Norma Reik and Hilda Varney, was a Representative from Massachusetts and she surprised me a great deal when she told me that Madeline MacKenzie was Speaker of the House. Buffy looked as cute as she always did in a policewoman’s uniform. This brought back to me Buffy’s past weakness for any uniform, and when I thought of the force she could exert if the occasion demanded I felt that the government would be well protected. Washington indeed seemed like home, for advancing to greet me with a cordial smile was Miriam Bond who modestly told me of a volume of po¬ ems which she was having published. She also told me she had left the pub¬ lisher’s (who by the way was Albert Avjian) only a few moments before where she had met Margaret Lucey and Florence Jacobson who had com¬ bined in writing a modern book on “Economics.” Miriam invited me to lunch and in talking over old school friends I learned that Dorothy Cum¬ mings had gone west and done commendable work in the Indian schools. Miriam had found this bit of news in an article written in the Washing¬ ton Journal, a flourishing paper, by Marion Hershenson on the “Lives of the Modern Indians.” The paper was widely read in Washington largely from the fact that John Doherty, editor-in-chief, had always edited such a breezy paper. The woman’s page carried on by Viola Howes and the Movie Column conducted by Anna Wienberg were equally attractive features. Guided by impulse I turned again homeward confident that I should meet my other friends there. I was not disappointed. I had heard of so Page Sixty YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919B MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL many new and interesting things while I was in Washington that I wished to find out more about them. Therefore, when I reached Malden I im¬ mediately went to the Public Library. Everything seemed so strange that I felt much confused until an energetic little lady came up to me and asked me in a very pleasant manner what references I wished. This lit¬ tle lady was Grace Cameron who was more than helpful in finding my books for me. After I had read “A Short History of the Last Ten Years” by Ruth Bantick I asked Grace if she could tell me of the whereabouts of my friends whom I had missed. She told me that I would not be able to see Mary Urann as she was in Europe playing for the tennis title while Genevieve Coughlin, Florence Ellis and Ellen Erlandson were secretaries in the United States embassy at Paris. As I gathered up my books preparatory to leaving, Grace gave me a ticket for a charity concert which was to be given that afternoon. Her parting words were, “Be sure to go.” I fol lowed her advice and what a pleasure awaited me! The first surprises came when I was escorted to my seat by Azniv Boyajian who smiled sweetly as ever and when Sarah Goidfarb who presided over the candy table came to greet me. They both more than praised the forthcoming concert and indeed they didn’t praise it too much for the artistes were Ivadel Maguire and Esther Mc¬ Curdy, assisted by Arline Armstrong as accompanist. After the concert I spoke to them and found out that Ivadel was to join a light opera com¬ pany in New York the following fall where she would meet another class¬ mate in the person of Kathryn Johnson who was also planning to join the company as a dancer, while Esther was to join an opera company in Chicago. I was sorry to leave them for I realized that I was saying goodbye to the last of my classmates but as I had no further mission in the year 1930 it was with delight that I greeted my old friend Father Time who appeared with his open book. He slowly turned the pages back, back, back, until the book opened again at the page of 1919 and pointing with his bony finger he followed the days back to this, our class day, and brought me back to this moment where I now stand ready to bring this prophecy to a close. Perhaps on that mystical page of the future there was inscribed in that writing, ineffacable as the centuries, a hidden and ponderous mean¬ ing that I could not fathom, but I trust, fellow classmates, that however our lives may be written on the pages of the succeeding years there may be transcribed upon them nothing but success and prosperity, and that the great Foreteller of all may prophesy for each of us a future filled with the harvest of noble deeds. With this hope and prayer I close the pro¬ phecy of the Class of 1919B. Page Sixty-One HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1919 B BERNARD OSTRIECHER three things of marked impor- m CY tance in the life of a person are his birth, his marriage, and his death. Add to that the day of his first entrance into the High School and the list is complete; for it is undoubtedly a momentous occasion. A casual observer on the 9th of Septem¬ ber 1915 could see occasionally among the un¬ happy expressions of the pupils wending their way toward school a group of eager faces. It requires little thought to distinguish and name these two groups. The upper classmen bore the sad expressions, for they were fully aware of what lay before them. The eager group was none other than our illustrious class of 1919B, then blissfully ignorant freshmen, hastening forward to that much dreamed of course as dignified High School students. But on arriving at our destination, however, our faces gradually lost their eagerness for really “those horrid upper classmen weren’t one bit nice.” Finally, after what seemed to us hours of waiting, the bell rang and we hesitatingly filed into the building to the assembly hall. One of our members later described her feelings in this manner: Into the big assembly hall I walked with the greatest pride, ’Till a Senior said these words to me (I very nearly cried) : “Good morning little freshman, Aren’t you lost in this big place? I should think you were a baby By your sorrowful little face.” Page Sixty-Two YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919 B MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL Our sorrowful faces soon acquired a faint smile, however, and our fear and embarrassment were greatly abated by the look of genuine wel¬ come on the face of the gentleman who greeted us. After a short welcoming speech we were cruelly separated into groups according to alphabetical order and assigned to home rooms. It is cus¬ tomary to start at the bottom and work up but contrary to custom we started at the top and worked down—some of us slower than others. The overflow of our large class necessitated the opening of two home rooms on the fourth floor. Consequently some less fortunate were later obliged to do a daily marathon in order to avoid being late. On our first day at school, we proved so ambitious and studious that we wandered into at least one senior classroom only to be rudely laughed out, much to our chagrin and embarrassment. But gradually we lost our embarrassment and ridicule soon means nothing in the life of a fresh¬ man—we thrived in spite of it. Our interest in school affairs began some months later with a cam¬ paign to raise $5000 to liquidate the debt on our athletic field. The per¬ son to whom is due most of the credit for the success of the campaign is Mr. James F. Armstrong, father of one of our members, who by his tireless eiforts and Billy Sunday-like speeches aroused the enthusiasm and opened the pockets of all his hearers. Miss Popkin’s occasional antics during this semester helped greatly to break the monotony of many of our classrooms. She seemed especially to victimize English teachers. We wonder why? Perhaps it is because they are generally so good natured (?) The coming of June was welcomed by all and we gladly parted from our tedious studies for a delightful long rest. Our entrance the following semester was entirely unlike the one pre¬ ceding it. Now we bore the proud title of Sophomores and before many months had passed, as far as our studies were concerned, we truly did sophomore (suffer more). This year, as the Dutchman remarked, we missed many dear faces that we used to shake hands with. A number of our former comrades had so much enjoyed their freshman year as to wish to repeat it and they’ve been repeating something or other ever since. Competition is the life of enterprise ’tis said. Perhaps the reason our worthy paper, “The Blue and Gold” has proved so successful is be¬ cause it has met very serious competition and emerged the victor. You were not aware of any competition? It remains a fact nevertheless and that much feared competitor was a delightful (?) class publication, beau¬ tifully and appropriately named the “Malden High School Pest.” Its board of editors consisted entirely of 1919B members, headed by that Page Sixty-Three YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919B . ' . MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL renowned literary genius, Professor John Doherty. The method of dis¬ tribution was unique to say the least. It was quietly passed from per¬ son to person as secretly and mysteriously as Bolshevik propaganda. In April a play “The Chuzzlewits” was given by the pupils of the school in aid of the Senior English Club which had been recently formed under the able direction of Miss Ruth S. Child. It was a decided success in every detail, mainly, we think, thru the efforts of two of our dramatic shining lights, Ita Kelly and Clayton Dunham. The remainder of the semester passed quite uneventfully and in June we were again raised one rung higher on the ladder of life. September found us Juniors full of vim and vigor and ready to at¬ tack our new duties with a will. We were taught algebra by the benevo¬ lent gentleman in 321 who is continually asking, “Are ‘they’ any ques¬ tions?” Take one guess everybody. The subject of chemistry was elected or rather forced upon many of us. What impressed us most the first day was the number of large spots visible here and there upon the ceiling of the laboratory. Our teacher, Mr. Thompson, informed us that these were mementos of disaster which had befallen many of our less fortunate predecessors. Immediately vis¬ ions of stretchers, hospitals and what was more pleasant, vacations from school came to our minds. Fortunately no real disaster occurred al¬ though how Goldberg ever survived safely through that course will al¬ ways remain a mystery. He discovered many times much to his sorrow, the truth of the saying “All is not bliss that blisters.” The fragrant (?) odor of H2S would oftentimes leave the confines of its home, the chemistry laboratory, and be prevalent in many of our class¬ rooms. This wandering nature of Hydrogen Sulphide is not stated in the text book as one of its properties and the question arises, “How did it acquire it?” Boy, please page Sherlock Holmes! German this year was added to our repertoire of languages and as soon as we became on speaking terms with it we tested out proficiency on the poor unsuspecting dog-cart proprietor by politely requesting, “Hey there, ein hunt mit!” In April the En Ka presented a delightful musical show “The Revue of Revues.” Here the reputation of our class was gracefully upheld by Hilda Varney, Helen Hatch, Leonice Ruble and Arline Armstrong. It was noticeable afterward that Waldron’s Casino, a famous Boston musical comedy house, showed a marked decrease in Malden High School patrons. In May another campaign for enlistment to the U. S. Boys Working- Reserve was started. We discovered that the simple life appealed to a few of our classmates and Stanwood Whitcomb, Albert Avjian, James Mitchell, Gene Kelley, and Clayton Dunham volunteered for service. The Page Sixty-Four YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919 B MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL lengthened vacation probably served as an inducement although the ac¬ counts of the fair maidens in Lenox might have aided greatly. Toward the close of the term, a parade of the school children of Malden for the benefit of the Malden War Chest, was successfully held. All of our departments of learning were well represented. It was ru¬ mored that our popular mathematics teacher was to appear on horseback and canter daintily through the streets of Malden, as gracefully as Sir Galahad. Perhaps that accounts for the large sidewalk crowds. June again appeared releasing us temporarily from our trials and tribulations. During the summer our class was shocked and saddened by the death of Miss Lucille Perry. We returned the following September to what later proved to be the most enjoyable year at school. The various dramatic successes of the year gave one of our most popular members, Chester McKinley, well de¬ served theatrical fame. A successful dramatic career is prophesied by everybody for him. In athletics our class was ably represented by Miss Mary Urann the Star Basket Ball player and Captain Albert Berube and John O’Brien who later acquitted themselves on the baseball field in reg¬ ular big league fashion. We would be committing an unpardonable of¬ fense if we failed to record, while speaking of athletics, Mr. Joseph Rosen, known by his friends as Trotsky, as our star ping-pong player. In January we tendered a reception to the graduating class. It was marred from being an enormous success by the running short of ten b ricks of the usual Senior Reception attraction. The excellency of the perform¬ ance, enacted later by a group of our members, however, amply made up for this deficiency. The frequent assignments of oral themes in Mr. Bartlett’s English class gave Miss Roosov and Miss Wies ample opportunity to display their much appreciated Portia-like oratory. In our economics class many weighty questions taxed our limited brain power. On one occasion, after considerable discussion, we finally decided the way to increase women’s wages was to decrease the supply; kill them off and thus get rid of them. In February came the weekly Monday morning practice in singing under the able direction of Mr. Chase. Here we received many pleasant surprises for occasionally we were given a musical treat by classmates who in the past had been too modest to reveal their remarkable vocal ability. Miss Ivadel Maguire’s renderings were very pleasing. Miss George’s voice also met with much favor. Chester McKinley proved to us one morning that acting is but one of his many talents, for by his capable presentation of a well known musical number, he established himself firm- Page Sixty-Five YEAR BOOK CLASS OF 1919B .-. MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL ly in our minds as Caruso’s serious rival. Most of us had heard of Miss McCurdy’s vocal ability through a male member of our class who, it is rumored, is repeatedly informing her that he would rather go to her home and hear her sing than go to a theater. Pleasing as Esther’s voice is, we think it is but a minor attraction in this case. The months that followed were busy for all of us. Here and there, a worried face was noticeable. This was a symptom of that dreaded dis¬ ease “U’s to cancel”. We were for the most part, however, an excellent example of the saying “The Great Divide is between a Senior’s thoughts and his studies.” Everyone was busy attending to some graduation de¬ tail and with Miss Levy it was a case of Florence here, Florence there, Florence everywhere. Florence was so industrious that even when she had nothing to do she knit her brows. And now, after climbing steadily and patiently for four years, we have at last reached the much longed for summit—our commencement. Fellow students, whom we are about to leave behind, we desire to present you with this as our parting gift. There are bound to be times in your High School course when you will grow weary, when the lure of the out¬ side world will tempt you. Resist these temptations, my friends. Stick to your studies, for time well spent will double its value in the future. Page Sixty-Six CLASS POEM AVE ET VALE. MIRIAM APTHORP BOND. I. Hail! thou Future, dawning bright and clear Upon a world o’er which grim war has passed And left behind a desolation vast Which must perforce remain for many a year. Thou alone hast power the wrong to right, And teach to all that sweet fraternal love By which men gain redemption from above And overcome the curse of tyrants’ might. Peace, in vain for four years sought, is won. And deeds of daring under fire are o’er, But we must now do all we can, and more, To keep the peace which was so dearly won. For now to us a chance is given To try our powers bestowed by Heaven. II. Malden High, we say farewell to thee. Ye happy days in school, now fare ye well. Our paths diverge. What goal, no man can tell, Nor yet when we again each other see Scattered far and wide all ’round the world, Thy standard high forever would we keep, And benefit from all thy teachings reap, No matter where by Fate we may be hurled. Thus we leave thy portals, Malden High, To do and dare, and, doing, bring thee fame To keep still shining bright thy glorious name As did thy sons who now in Flanders lie. And so we say farewell to Past, And welcome Future, bright and vast. Page Sixty-Seven POEM THE CHALLENGE. GERTRUDE E. ATHEARN, 1919. From out the little hamlets Of saddened blood stained France There comes a ringing challenge To rouse us from our trance. Awake! ye sons of heroes; Awake! ye daughters, too; On to the task before you; Arise! there’s work to do. There are countries devastated, Lands rudely torn apart, Small children poor and hungry And mothers sad at heart. All nations bowed in sorrow; The whole world full of care; ’Tis for us to lift the burden, For us to do and dare. Oh! hear the call and answer: “World, here am I today. I’m eager, young, and ready; I’m anxious for the fray.” Page Sixty-Eight DAILY REMINDERS. Miss Violet Ackroyd Mr. James A. Bartlett Miss Margaret F. Berton Mr. Percy A. Brigham Miss Annie S.

BASEBALL The game opened with Glue at the stick and Smallpox catching. Cigar was in the box. Strawberry Shortcake played short and Corn was in the field. Egg was umpire and he was rotten. Cigar let Board walk. Song made a hit, and Sawdust filled the bases. Then Soap cleaned up. Cigar went out. Balloon started to pitch but went up in the air. Cherry tried it, but went wild. Ice went in and kept cool until he was hit by the ball. Then you ought to have heard Ice Cream. Lightning finished the game and struck out six men. Lunatic was put out for he was off his base. Bread loafed on third base and Light went out at first. Cabbage was manager for he had a good head. Knife was called out for cutting first base. Grass covered lots of ground. The crowd cheered when Spider caught a fly. Steak was out on home plate. Clock wound up the game by striking out. If Door had pitched he would have shut them out. IS TH 3 you G-EORGE ?

ADVERTISING SECTION OLD COLONY PRESS 152 PURCHASE STREET BOSTON YEAR BOOK CLASS 1 9 1 9 B OUR PRODUCT ADVERTISING SECTION is a professional school of collegiate grade that specializes in training men to become public accountants, cost accountants, auditors, office managers, and assistant treasurers. It is the largest professional school in the United States that is devoted exclusively to the training of accountants. During the past year we have enrolled 685 students. Mr. Bentley is a certified public accountant under the laws of four states, and enjoys a national reputation as an accountant, writer and instructor. He has trained more men who have passed the C. P. A. examinations than any other instructor in New England. To be Bentley-trained carries prestige in business. This school has more calls for accountants from certified public accountants and prominent mercantile and manufacturing businesses than it is possible to supply. There are wonderful opportunities in both public and commercial accounting for young men who are properly trained in accounting, business law, business English, business mathematics, and penmanship. If you desire to become a successful accountant get your training under one who has had a wide practical experience, and do not take a lot of other sub¬ jects in conjunction with accounting. We train men for accounting practice and to pass the C. P. A. examinations in two years if they attend day sessions, or in four years if they attend evening sessions two evenings each week. Tuition for day sessions,— $135 per year, payable in monthly instalments of $15 if desired. Tuition for evening sessions, —$5 per month for first year, and $8 per month for second, third and fourth years. Over 200 students transferred from other collegiate institutions to this school during the past year. If interested, call, ’phone, or write for catalog.
