One wrofe fhaf fhe beaufiful sfrucfure spanning fhe Diamond River had been consfrucfed under his supervision. An-ofher claimed fhaf he had wriffen several books, many of fhem besf-sellers. l-le has graciously senf me a complimenfary, personally-aufographed copy of each book fhaf he has published. One Meriden High alumnus has become a famous lawyer. l have wifnessed him several fimes in courf and marveled af his adepf, eloquenf speeches fhaf have liferally won his cases for him. Why, one '4l sfudenf had dreams of rebuilding fhe M.H.S. in a sfream- lined version and fulfilled 'rhaf apparifion a few years lafer by his persisfency fo gef ahead. I have only cifed a few cases of my former classmafes who have reached fhe fop, buf l confinually hear favorable reporfs concerning fhe '4l graduafes of Meriden High School. They have come a long way, fhese famous people. Whaf has made fhem renowned? Their characfer has had an imporfanf role in fheir upward climb. Per- sisfence, abilify, pafience -- all fhese characferisfics have 'figured prominenfly in fheir success. These disfincfive qualifies were in some cases inherifed, buf, on fhe whole, fhey were insfilled in us by our feachers af sch-ool. They inspired us fo keep sfruggling on, even fhough we did nof have fhe slighfesf inclinafion fo do so. We learned fo fake each unfavorable incidenf wifh a greaf measure of self-confrol and o fimism. Our nafural falenf was polished as much as possible in order fhaf wie migfif make a noficeable niche for ourselves in This world. Our preparafion for our life's work had begun in fhe home, buf if was more fhan amply supplemenfed b fhe ever- presenf cooperafion of our feachers from grade school fhrough high scfiool. My frain of fhoughf was broken by fhe heavy fhud of a log in fhe fireplace. A shower of sparks flew up fhe chimney and fhe room losf mosf of ifs coziness. Sfifling a wide yawn, I wound fhe clock, puf fhe caf ouf, and fhen padded off fo bed where l could dream undisfurbed abouf fhe good old days . if THE ANNUAL - I94I ll Il Hicics Essay Contest FiTTy years ago, in I892, RadcliTT Hiclcs, one oT Meriden's leading lawyers, busi- nessmen, and manuTacTurers, gave To The Meriden High School a Tund oT one Thou- sand dollars wiTh which To encourage The wriTing and speaking oT correcT English.

WW DEFEN5 CLUBS -i THE ANNUAL - I94I Ii-. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY In every TirsT-class high school There are clubs and socieTies of many kinds. Each serves To promoTe inTeresT in some parTicuIar phase of school acTiviTies in which The parTicipanTs may receive IeTTers and oTher school or public awards Tor Their specialized abiIiTy or TaIenT. However, all oTher school honors are eclipsed by a NaTional Honor SocieTy eIecTion, which is based on characTer, leadership, scholarship and service. To be eligible Tor This socieTy, pupils musT sTand in The upper quarTer oT Their class in scholarship. NoT more Than TiTTeen per cenT of any class ma be eIecTed To membership. In Meriden High School The Tollowing meThod of seLecTing mem- bers is used: Trom a compIeTe IisT oT The graduaTes The class chooses Those iT con- siders ouTsTanding in leadership. This IisT is Then submiTTed To The TacuITy, who check These names Tor scholarship, characTer, and service. Leadership in school IiTe may be demonsTraTed in many ways: by holding office in eiTher class or club: by parTicipaTion in aThIeTics, where a sTudenT develops quali- Ties of sporTsmanship which lead oThers To seIecT him as Their guide, and by leading class-room discussions and debaTes, wherein The pupil molds The ideas and opinions OT oThers. The power To lead is a wonderful giTT if used To guide oThers inTo The way of beTTer Things. Service may be expressed every day in our school IiTe by our cheerful willing- ness To help oThers and To spread T e 'Fame of Meriden High School. CharacTer is composed oT innumerable quaIiTies, such as: honesTy, reIiabiIiTy, sinceriTy, Tolerance, and courage. The emblem of The NaTional Honor SocieTy is The keysTone and Tlaming Torch. The keysTone expresses The high ideals oT our socieTy. The Tlaming Torch is The symbol of our purposes: To bear Torward The searching IighT of TruTh, To lead ThaT oThers may Tollow in The IighT, To keep burning in our school a high ambiTion Tor The enduring values of IiTe, and To serve, in consideraTion oT oThers. In Meriden High School The NaTional Honor SocieTy is sponsored by Miss Doyle, Miss GanTIey. Miss Pickard, Mr. Walker, and Mr. HunT. Members oT The SocieTy render service To The school by ushering on ParenTs' NighT and aT gradua- Tion. The climax of The year's acTiviTies is The banqueT given by The Exchange Club Tor members of The SocieTy. OFFICERS Presidenf ...,...,.,. .........,.,,.........,..................,.. .........,.... .

We realize Tully ThaT The greaT Tragedy They are now experiencing is a resulT oT a lack of preparedness. We French sTudenTs Teel, however, Thar France will live again: we are noT willing To leT The spiriT oT The French people die. The French Club This year was composed oT TwenTy-Tive members. All Third- ear sTudenTs were eligible: second year sTudenTs who received an average oT aT easT 80 Tor The TirsT marking period were also admiTTed. AT our French Club meeTings, which were conducTed almosT enTirely in French, we Tried To observe many French cusToms and TradiTions. We enioyed singing French songs and playing French games. ParT oT one meeTing was devoTed To playing French bingo: anoTher, To presenTing several puppeT shows. AT a TeaTure meeTing, in The gym, we made a voyage aboard The S.S. Normandie . Deck games such as shuTTle board, deck Tennis, quoiTs, and bowling kepT us all busy. Each year Le Cercle Francais gives awards To The Two sTudenTs who have excelled in second and Third year French respecTively.

There is more than the craftsmanship of men and machines . . . more than the secrets of generations of silversmithing. This extra ingredient is Pride. It's the Pride the designer takes in creating a lovely pattern. It's the Pride the die-makers take in their artg the Pride of each craftsman in the perfection of his Work. Intangible though it may be, Pride is the priceless ingredient in each piece marked IDIS! . . . for it is the Pride of its makers that distinguishes a superior product from the ordinary.
