Address It is my privilege, as president of the Class of '32, to bid you a cordial welcome to our Class Day Exercises. We, the Class of '32 are reaching the end of four years of work and real happi- ness. We thank our parents who have sacri- ficed to give to us during this time of depression the best they could possibly afford, the faculty who have worked with constant care during our preparation, making our road brighter and our loads lighter as we are fitted for the futureg also our friends who have provided this new high school for us, stood back of us, help- ing us in every way when needed. It is with regret that we depart from O. H. S. Some of us will be stepping into higher institutions, others directly into life's work, but we shall never forget what has been done for us. Once more, we, the Class of '32, extend to you a most sincere welcome. Stanley Ceponis, '32 History of the Class of 1932 One sunny morning about eight o'c1ock I was riding along a country road. Just as I turned a certain bend I noticed a group of people ahead of me. I think there were about eighty-five in all. They seemed to be having a good time so I stopped, and, watching them for a few moments, I noticed that their pace didn't alter much and that they walked as if they were anxious to reach a certain destination. I sat still and waited while they went on their way. They had rounded another roun ' bend when I decided to follow. They kept along this road for about a mile and then turned off into a field. My curiosity was well aroused by this time. I finally caught up with the stragglers and asked them what it was all about. One told me that they were going to climb a hill, which I could see in the distance. I didn't see much to that idea for the hill didn't look very high or hard to climb. And then another told me that they wanted to climb to the top of the tower that could be seen above the trees. I decided to become a member of the group for I had become as excited as the others. After a short climb we reached the foot of the tower. We went inside and learned that there were four very long, dark, narrow flights of stairs. The keeper of the tower suggested that we have a number of guides to lead us. Our first step was to elect leaders for the first part of our journey. After due consideration Ernest Peterson, Ramona Ford, Malcolm Hall and Elinor Stone were chosen. We soon settled down to a steady climb, our major difficulties being scholastic duties. We didn't find the going so very hard until we reached the last few stairs and then a great many people began to drop out. During this phase of the journey every- one was trying to help the other one out. Each spoke words of encouragement, patted others on the back and said, Oh! come on kid, just two or three more and then we'll be there. I think everyone was very much pleased with himself to think he had at last reached the top of the first flight of stairs. The most important experience we had during this part of our journey came as a result of an invitation to attend Bacca- laureate. At a class meeting we decided e ---1 4 THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO that we should be led to the Baccalaureate services by Francis Lavley and that he should carry a baton from which should hang streamers of old rose and silver ribbons. At these exercises we were urged to take a short rest and then come back to try the second flight. The people told us that it would be a mu chharder climb than the first had been but that we would surely be satisfied once we had reached our second landing. We all decided in favor of trying our luck on this harder climb although we feared that not every one would make the grade. This time we chose for our leaders Malcolm Hall, Ramona Ford, Stanley Ceponis and Elinor Stone. The first stairs of this flight were very much like the last few on the flight before but it wasn't long before they began to get more difficult. There were a few stairs that were hard to get over. On one we had the question put before us of Whether or not we should have an organization that would rule the groups as a whole, for there were groups of people trudging along, ahead and in back of us. Our particular group thought that this organization would be a wise thing and therefore we voted for it. In the end the organization was formed. This was called the Student Council and was made up of the entire student body. Another hard step that confronted us was that of choosing a much more experi- enced person than any of our group as adviser. For our adviser we chose a Mr. Littlefield who was at the head of the History Department in Orange High School. We had to make careful choice for we were obliged to keep the same advis- er the rest of our journey. This second fiight didn't tax us as much as the first one had. We had be- come hardened to the fight, thus making the going easier. We reached the landing in good time very happy that we had been able to get so far. This time we rested a long while. The time before we were prett.y much excited and wanted to be on our way but we had learned our lesson and would have taken advantage of a longer rest period but for some of the more energetic people who urged us on. The third stage was even longer than either of the other two. Knowing this we started at a moderate pace and kept it up most of the way. For our four officers this time we elected Stanley Ceponis as president with Alyce Iram as his assistant. Corinne Wheeler kept the record of our journey while Bradley Frye took care of the money that was taken in. This fiight wasn't so hard. We took it more casually than we had the others. During this climb we gave and went to many social affairs. It always happened that when we sponsored a good time it turned out to be a financial success. All this success gave some one the bright idea of going to Washington, D. C. for a week. This would give the people a change besides giving them a vacation. I guess the originator of the idea thought it would be a good time to mention it as we had quite a bit of money in our treasury. This question was brought up at many of our meetings but it wasn't until the next year that we decided not to go. Instead of spending money in Wash- ington it was decided to buy a window cur- tain for the auditorium in Orange High School. Other groups also gave curtains to beautify the same auditorium. I believe everyone enjoyed this climb much more than he had the other two for each seemed to have more confidence in himself. Also, because all knew how to enjoy the opportunities received much more than before. Everyone certainly had the spirit of the journey this year. FIVE THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO When we had reached the third land- ing we were tested in many different fields of work. Some excelled in studies, thus gaining the privilege of being a Pro Merito member. Others excelled on the athletic field and still others on the stage. At each landing there was an elevator waiting to give anyone who desired, a ride to the bottom. On all the landings there were at least two who thought the ride would be much better than climbing the next fiight. At the end of the third climb we re- ceived another long resting period. I guess everyone felt the same as I did for I certainly appreciated it. We were asked to the Baccalaureate service as before and as before we were marshaled in by Francis Lavley who carried the same baton. At these services we were encouraged to attempt the fourth and final flight of stairs. Of course, we wanted two see what was at the top. Any- way, it would have been foolish not to have gone the whole way. This climb proved to be even harder, but still, it was just loads of fun. All the way up there were funny things happening that took our minds from the climb, thus making it much easier. Often a group of people got together and gave a little play. One time we gave a three-act drama from which we made rather a large sum of money. This helped to enlarge the amount of money in our treasury. We felt pretty good over the success of this play. We were about half way up when on looking up to the top we could see large rays of light piercing their way through the darkness towards us. 'It helped us gain new courage, for the way was very hard and rough- in that place. These rays seemed to give us a helping hand, for everything began to fall on us all at once. It wasn't long before we were so near the top that we could look down and see almost to the end of those rays. What a SIX short time ago it was that we were wishing we were above that light. It didn't take us long to get to the very last steps for everybody was excited to know what was up there. We had just attained. the last stair when the sunset was refiected upon us. It changed every- thing to the color of the pink rose. The next day saw us actually at the top of the four hardest flights of stairs I had ever had to climb in my life. The view was astounding. We were able to see for miles and miles. Looking towards the east we were able to see a college with a beautiful campus surround- ing it. A little bit to the south was a hospital looking snug and quiet tucked in among the trees. In the west was a State Teacher's College, formerly a Normal School. This looked small but we learned later that it was one of the leading Teacher Training Schools in the country. Looking towards the north we saw many office buildings reaching up into the sky. In the top of one there was a school for secre- tarial students. On what road have we prepared our- selves for another hard climb upward? What road of the future shall we choose? What says that guide board there? To-day decides to-morrow! Jeannette W aters Address to Undergraduates Undergraduates: It is my privilege as a representative of the class of nineteen hundred and thirty-two to address you. This is the proudest event of our lives to be here in this auditorium before you, underclassmen. For the past four years we have enjoyed the facilities of this new, modern high school. Now the time has come for you to take over the responsibil- ities which we leave you. THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO Freshmen: In your first year of high school life you have displayed a spirit of loyalty and willingness to work which, if retained and developed, will make your high school years what they are meant to be, a foundation upon which to build your life work. Sophomores: You have been well represented in all your school activities and, if you use the same judgment which you have used in the past- two years, your future success will be assured. Juniors: We have watched your pro- gress during the last three years with much approval, and we feel sure that you are ready to and capable of undertaking the responsibilities which we leave to you, as our successors. In closing, let me say, that the class of nineteen hundred and thirty-two is sure that you will strive to keep the stand- ard of Orange High School at its highest. William A. Charles Reply It is my pleasure to represent the underclasses and to reply to the preceding address. Our feeling of school brother- hood causes us to share with you this dayis prideg pride for us, tempered with humility as we think of assuming the mantle which falls from your shoulders to ours. We shall strive to be worthy of your example. One of the outstanding characteristics of your class has been leadership in all fields, scholastic, athletic and artistic. Such wide-spread activity and ability can but be an inspiration to the classes you leave behind you. May it inspire you individually and as a group to unlimited success. Perhaps greater than other qualities mentioned is your genius for friendship. It is this quality which will make the vacancy you leave so difficult to fill. It is a quality which Will not fail to bring you the best things in life. We extend our congratulations to you for the excellent record you made during your four years at high school. We shall do our best to keep this record where we know you would wish it to be. And in closing we, the underclassmen, wish you the greatest of success in all your undertakings. Charles B. M acM illan Class Prophecy Immediately after graduation I was engaged by an historical research museum. I embarked for Egypt in search of some ancient hieroglyphic writing which was supposedly hidden somewhere along the banks of the Nile River. Day after day our excavations were fruitless and very trying to my fellow workers. One day a very bent, ancient looking man approached us in a very mysterious manner. He was dressed in clothes resembling Gandhi's and carrying a sceptre in his right hand. In a very soft, melodious, clear, spiritual sounding voice he told us where we should find the hieroglyphics if we would do as he bade us. I sent most of the members of the expedition on while a few of us stayed with our mysterious friend. He casually mentioned, that he was a mental analyti- cal doctor. Immediately my interest was aroused. I asked him if he could predict- the future of the class of 1932. With only a wry smile of complete understanding and with alacrity, he proceeded in the following manner: In 1950 your former class president, Stanley Ceponis will have received adegree of Batchelor of Arts and Sciences and will be elevated to the exalted position of Professor in the University of Orange. SEVEN THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO In the same University Elsie Olson will be employed as private secretary, and will be even more efficient in her work than she was in high school, if such a thing is possible.

Irene Pentreath engaged by the Mas- sachusetts Department of Education will go to Hawaii to teach the natives the fund- amentals of shorthand and typewriting. Alvaretta Hunt will become a profes- sional horsewoman. Grais MacKnight will become a suc- cessful dentistfs assistant. How lucky for Grais!

Ernest Peterson will become keeper of Parks. Anything that had to do with Parkers always aroused Pete's suspicion. Paul Rosberry will become an optom- etrist. Incidentally Rosberry considers this a step toward his political careerg he sees all but says nothing. Bill Charles will become chief floor walker at Franklin Simmons in New York. This will give Bill a chance to exhibit the latest fashions in men's clothing. John Mullen,quite capable of holding any responsible position, will become secre- tary of treasury when he is forty-five.

Harry Nelson will be the greatest newspaper reporter the New York Tribune ever had. Harry's specialty will be the breaking up of gangland. Francis Lavley will show that Act- ions speak louder than words, by becom- ing a champion boxer. Anna Parker will become a nurse and will embark for China to aid the refugees of the international settlement. Marjorie Shaw will become famous in the literary field.

Grace Spear will be happily married and will spend most of her time in leisure, basking in the Florida sun. Priscilla Claflin will own and operate her own exclusive ladies dress shop. Olive Smith will join the circus as a tight rope walker. Incidentally, Olive is a big advertisement as well as a big drawing card for the company. Clarence Pierce will become an archi- tect and will be employed in New York. At this time he will be working on a draft for the new Orange High School. It looks as though Orange will become prosperous. At the annual 4 H club meeting at Chicago, Ruth Cromwell will be crowned the healthiest girl in the United States. Ruth Peterson will become a dancer by profession and will teach interpretive as well as ballroom dancing. Nellie Perekslis will become a domestic science teacher, believing in the slogan that, The quickest way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Grace Jefferies will still be going to school. What Grace is going to do with her knowledge I cannot tell you. NINE 'ml THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO Ramona Ford will become dean of a girls' finishing school in New Jersey. Luella Emery will be engaged by a type- writing company to give annual exhibitions in typewritingf' At this point the stranger broke off and said, Today Decides Tomorrow. For that reason, your classmates need not worry over the future. Immediately my suspicion and curiosity were more keenly aroused. I asked him where he obtained his more or less accurate knowl- edge but he did not answer. Picking up his fallen sceptre and still with that some- what lingering pathetic smile he fixed his gaze upon the horizon and set off without any explantion. I stood looking after his retreating figure when I heard a great deal of hilarity. I turned around and found the members of the expedition back, back with the hieroglyphic writing and all. Was it intuition or modesty that prompted the sudden retreat of my most amazing friend? Neillfie Brock, '32 Class Will We, the Class of 1932, of Orange High School, City of Orange, County of Franklin, and State of Massachusetts--said by its residents to be the best state of all-having arrived at the end of our high school career, being in fairly good health, of sound mind and memory, as well as being physically normal, but having outgrown our last year's straw hats, and mindful of the dan- gers of the big world before us, do hereby make, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testament. First, our graduation charges we will to be paid with all other debts by our executors. Second, as to our estate, real and personal which we are possessed of, we give TEN and bequeath in the following manner: To Alvaretta Hunt, we bequeath these scales.

As you have real talent in this line you will be interested in them. To Robert Dahl, we bequeath these water wave combs. We have noticed, Bob, you have a wave every girl envies.

As long as you like boating, Nellie, you should like this. To Luella Emery, we bequeath this shorthand notebook. Because of your proficiency in office work, Luella, this should come in handy. To Walter Farley, we bequeath a thermometer. How's the weather up there, Dick? To Elizabeth Gibbs, we bequeath this Austin. We think maybe it will fit you better than the large Nash you do drive. To Susan Nims, we bequeath these bulbs. Here is a start to your horticul- tural career. To Priscilla Richards, we bequeath this leaflet of Sunshine City. It's the nearest we can get you to Florida, Priscilla. To Harry Nelson, we bequeath this cornet. When Old Faithful is worn out by your diligent playing here is a new one already to break in.

It's not so large, Gladys, but it may be of some help to you and the rest of the Musical Bargerons. To Paul Rosberry, we bequeath this blank-book. Its really too bad we could- n't supply a Boswell to copy down your many humorous sayings. You will have it to do all yourself, Paul. To Elinor Stone, we bequeath this set of garden tools.

As you are our class artist, John, you will be able to use this to good advantage and make your millions in commercial art. To Barbara Wood, we bequeath this mascara. You are the class beauty, Bar- bara, and perhaps you can use this to keep up the good looks. To Gilda Aguda, we bequeath this package of Pep. You don't need it now, Gilda, but you are using what pep you have at such a rate that most persons would have needed an extra supply long before now. To Barbara Pearce, we bequeath this manuscript entitled, Arguments-Pro and Con. Now, Barbara, you may be able to compete with Nellie and Gilda, more suc- cessfully. To Earl Floyd, we bequeath these throat lozenges. These should prevent a recurrence of your trouble of last fall. To Nellie Brock, we bequeath this piece of adhesive tape. This will hide that smile, Nellie, and you can succeed in looking bored in classes. To Norma Anderson, we bequeath these postage stamps. It must cost a lot, Norma, to send so many letters to Provi- dence, and perhaps these stamps will help out a bit. To Louis King, we bequeath this bicycle.

We know you are a good cook, Cecilia, and we have appreciated your services in the lunch- room every day. To Gladys Bone, we bequeath this harmonica.

You will be able to recover more quickly after blushing, Helen, if you use this. To Edgar Durling, we bequeath this catcher's mitt. Use this when you take Mickey Cochrane's place with the Athletics next year. To Grace Spear, we bequeath this cooking utensil. Another article for the hope chest, Gracie.

When you do, just use this to find your way back home. To Grace Jefferies, we bequeath this gavel. We know you like debating-a polite name for arguing--and if you use this gavel, you will be able to command the attention of the class and argue all you want to.

You and Durling remind us of them, for you cer- tainly stick together. To Barbara Cadwell, we bequeath this vanishing cream. You can use this, Barb, when anyone asks- Where were you last night? To Cecile Lariviere, we bequeath this fiashlight. You need it when you walk home late every night from Woods' restaurant. To Ruth Peterson, we bequeath this wrist watch. There's no need now, Ruthie to turn around and look at the clock every two minutes in history periods. To Bradley Frye, we bequeath this pop gun. Protect yourself with this, Bradley, when you walk out to your home after dark and we feel sure no bears or wildcats will dare attack you. To Grais MacKnight, we bequeath this book, entitled, Questions and An- swers in American History. It would be well worth your while to study this Gussie, and have a ready answer any time TWELVE you are asked questions about history. To Marjorie Brooks, we bequeath this dirigible. We realize you are in the upper strata of the class, Marjorie, and will soar far above the heads of most of us. To Corinne Wheeler, we bequeath this photograph album. Use it, Connie, to keep your pictures and letters you receive from celebrities. To Anna Parker, we bequeath this horse.

Wear this when you are walking into town, and we feel sure no one will try to pick you up. To Francis Lavley, we bequeath this large sum of 85.05. Use it to buy gas for that car of yours, Frank. To Marjorie Shaw, we bequeath this bag. We have noticed you always carry your books in a Boston bag so when it wears out use this. To John Mullen, we bequeath this tiny bank. Some day, John, we expect to see you as a treasurer of a bank in some large city. You have certainly succeeded as treasurer of our class. To Jeannette Waters, we bequeath this diary. You will find a use for it, Jean. To Stanley Ceponis, we bequeath this canoe. We know you enjoy being near the water Stan. To Mr. Harris and Mr. Humphrey, our janitors, who have aided us in the find- ing of locker keys, and other lost articles, we bequeath, these boxes of cigars, in appreciation of the excellent service they have rendered us. THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO To our Faculty, we bequeath: First, the task of discovering another class as brilliant as the Class of 1932, and Second, our heartfelt appreciation for the hours of patient work which they have given us in the last four years, and for the work they have given in preparation for this Graduation Week. To the Class of 1933, we bequeath the privilege of being the most important class in high school, the privilege of occu- pying the Senior Section in Assembly, together with innumerable other Senior privileges, and also the insufferable know- edge and prestige which becomes a Senior at Orange. To the Class of 1934, we bequeath the opportunity and privilege of chaperon- ing all Freshmen. Also, don't forget Freshmen are easily lost in the rush, the first week of school, and it is up to you, as their sister class to lead them to their rooms. To the Class of 1935, we bequeath the privilege of moving out of Room 21. No longer will you be under the tyranny and strong hand of-Miss Tubbs. Thus have we disposed of our earthly property, and do hereby constitute and appoint Miss Ellen Musgrove and Mr. Henry Littlefield, executors of this, our last will and testament, in Witness whereof we have hereunto set our hand and seal this Sth day of June, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and thirty-two. Signed, sealed, declared, and ordained by the Class of 1932 to be its last will and testament, in the presence of us, who have subscribed our names hereunto at their request, as witnesses in their presence and in the presence of each other. MR. EARLE Moom' Miss IDONIA Tunes MR. SAMUEL CROCKER Elsie Smead I vy Address Friends and classmates, it is my pleas- ure to ,have the opportunity to represent the Class of '32 on this occasion. We, the class of '32, plant this Ivy so that we may be remembered more clearly to the future generation of O. H. S. As this Ivy grows it may be compared to the growth of the Class of '32. At first only a few branches of this Ivy will know which course in life to take. But as years pass these branches, one by one, will take a definite course in life. Some will scale the walls to the Business World ,others will spread to the field of chemistry 5 while still others will strive to affix their grasp in the fields of mathematics, gymnastics, music and various other vocations. Like each branch, each member of the class of '32 will find his vocation and gradually move on toward success. But before we attain success, we must climb that long and discouraging ladder. Also this Ivy must climb the same route, up the walls of 0. H. S. Not one or two years will ac- complish this, but many years of hard and conscientious work. Classmates, although our four happy years are gone let us not break the friend- ships which we have made during our High School days. As we return one by one, as visitors, let us look upon this Ivy as the soul of '32 carrying on her activities in O. H. S. As the representative of the Class of '32 on this occasion, I now plant this Ivy to be the soul of the Class of '32, Ernest Peterson Farewell Address When the sun has set three more times, the close of the high school career of the Class of 1932 will be at hand. The goal toward which we have all been striving since our entrance into high school will then be reached. THIRTEEN THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO Many influences have come to bear upon us as we have journeyed onward to our goal. Perhaps those of most import- ance, or at least the first ones, have come to us in our homes. It is there that we first adopted the habits and character- istics which have made us either successes or failures. The home has been the start- ing point, the kernel, from which We have developed. Other important influences have come to us through the church and the community. The former has given and continues to give moral guidance. The latter protects us as citizens and gives us' the privileges provided for in the Consti- tution. However, as it is the school in which we are primarily interested at present, let us think of the many influences and oppor- tunities which this valued institution has offered us. It has been here that the foundations received in the home, church and community have been developed. The school has brought us into contact with teachers and students and thus helped us to overcome the general narrow-mind- edness of childhood. Here we have also made many lasting friendships. If the school educated its students in no other way than to let them gain what knowledge they could from personal contacts with teachers and fellow-students, it would be doing a great work. The schools of today are very different from those of two or three decades ago. A change in the attitude of teachers toward students is very evident. No longer is the student ruled over by a despot of whom he is afraid. The teacher of today is a real companion, encouraging individual initiative and the expression of opinion, rather than the mere learning of so many facts from a book. A change in general subject matter of the school curric- ulum has also come about. Less emphasis is now put upon the purely academic sub- jects, and more is placed upon those which are of a useful and practical nature. F0 URTEEN School authorities have come to realize that it is not the number of facts which a person has stored in his brain that count. It is a person's ability to put his knowledge to some practical use. We, of the Class of 1932, appreciate the opportunity that we have had to attend school under these, now recognized, super- ior methods of education. Without a doubt, our future successes can be attribu- ted, to a large degree, to the solid founda- tion which we have received here in Orange High school, and the truth of our motto Today Decides Tomorrow will be revealed. Els-ie C. Olson Today Decides Tomorrow If Today decides Tomorrow, And Tomorrow never comes, What then-must all our work be done Today? But should Tomorrow ever come, Would we find success at last- Does our work Today decide our fate Tomorrow? Today should be one of preparation For the success Tomorrow brings. Fill every moment with work well done, Thank God for the privilege of school and home- Be prepared to live success. So be content, not satisfied There's a difference twixt the two. Don't grumble at Today's hard luck, Do all you can right now To make your dreams come true. Tomorrow when it comes will be Today Another chance-a new beginning. Find an opportunity in each new day To make the next one better than the last. Future success depends on work Today, For Today decides Tomorrow. Al-ice Dorman Holt '32 THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO I OFFICERS OF THE SENIOR CLASS Grabuation Address of Welcome Parents, Faculty hflembers, and Friends: The class of nineteen hundred and thirty-two welcomes you to its Graduation Exercises. Tonight we have reached that goal for which we have been striving the past four years. However, we realize that it is only with the co-operation and encourage- ment of parents and teachers that our game has been won. We are soon to begin a new game, one which will entail greater responsibilities and will be much more difficult to play, but we begin with the assurance that the practice received in Orange High School has start-ed us well on the way to victory. As we enter upon our various careers we shall always look back upon our high school days with a great deal of pleasure, thanks to those who made them possible, and with t.he hope that future victories, like those of the past, may bring glory to our school. Again, the class of nineteen hundred and thirty-two extends a most cordial welcome. Ramona Ford Clay to Mold With Earth's first Clay They did the Last Man knead, And there of the Last Harvest sow'd the seed: And the first Morning of Creation wrote What the Last Dawn of Reckoning shall read. In the poet's mind, even man was modeled from Clay by our First Great FIFTEEN THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO Sculptor. The Earth-a living thing was used to aid in the molding of man. There- fore, must we not consider the Earthen Clay as one of the most important things of all life? It was the basic ingredient with which the Sculptor had to workg He molded an object which we must see and use as an example. This took divine inspiration, careful molding and time beyond human comprehension. The sculptor, today, follows carefully the program the Maker initiated. He studies the object which he is to mold. He must know clearly every line, every conture, every point of distinction. Before he begins, he must know his model thoroughly. Second, only to technique, is the sub- stance with which the sculptor works. Clay is his first medium of expression. It must be of perfect consistency. If, at first, it lacks perfection, it must be made perfect. If a child is to be brought up or modeled as the clay, everything must be of the best substance. Certainly, Human- ity is the greatest substance with which we have to work. Now, to compare the clay model with a child. Precious as is this human substance, we may hardly claim that all children are perfect, but they are taught, with the greatest patience, to be as nearly perfect as possible. Imperfect clay must be submitted to a careful analy- sis, whereupon the needed substances can be added and the impurities removed. The child, also, must be analyzed and must have different lessons given to him to bring him nearer perfection. Like the sculptor the parent must have his model. There must be some objective toward which the child's training progresses. The parent should always keep his model in the foreground, knowing every detail intimately. The sculptor always has his model where he can see it at any time. If he did not do this, he might make an error on his figure which would not only cost him thousands of dollars, but might also cost him the loss of SIXTEEN great fame. Ideal impressions must guide the parent in modeling the child. They lead toward the correct development of the ehildfs character. The sculptor sees that his impressions on the lump of clay which he is using are correct. If they are not, he has great difliculty in remodeling his figure to try to correct the error. If one wrong thing is done, it is much easier to continue doing things in the wrong way than to correct them-or even-to start them again. If the parent loses sight of his model, he becomes unfaithful to his ideal. The sculptor must keep his clay malleable continually-so, the parent must keep teaching or modeling the child never letting up . If the parent fails to do this and lets the child go helter skelterl' for several years, the masterpiece will be ruined and the clay settled in the wrong direction. The artist's statue has a perfect found- ation. Now, as time goes on, it is neces- sary, always, to build upon this first foundation. Lives must be worked out in the same manner. Every impression, every word should bear upon what was first taught to the child. The sculptor works for the true love of working. He puts into his figures the best that he has in order that that figure will be the most perfect possible. It has been said, Give to the World the best that you have and the best will come back to youf' So-in molding character, put into it the best you have and, at some time, you will be rewarded. The parent gives the child the best he has. He molds this child because of the love he has for his work and for his child. Not always does he bring up the child for Renown as the sculptor molds his statue for Fame. Yet, Fame, Honor, Respect, and Reverence are just rewards for the parent who has, so carefully, molded the character of his child. Priscilla Claflin, '32 THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO First Impressions How large are the first impressions in the shapeless clay. How unique is the finished statue in marble or bronze. Weeks, months,--yes, maybe years were necessary to complete this work of art that it may gain national and even inter- national fame. The first impressions in the clay decided the greatness of the com- pleted statue, and so, the first impressions of the small child determine the greatness of the man or woman of later years. When we stop to think, civilization is a comparatively new thing. Even in the present. day it is not world wide. In the countries where civilization is at its lowest level, we find the home also at its lowest level. There is no unified home such as is found in the United States. The children in these countries are not given the oppor- tunities that our children are given. Their first impression in the home is work. At the earliest possible age the children are sent into the fields, into the gardens, or into the shops and factories. It is in the civilized home where the children learn of the need and value of protection. If a child were frightened and many people were near him, his first thought would be to run home to mother or father. It is only natural that he should place the parents, who have taken him into their confidence, on a pedestal high above any other human being. And is it not only natural that the parents return this confidence, and at times show too much partiality toward their offspring? All during the early childhood character is being molded and formed. It has been said by a noted minister that character is the only thing you can take with you into eternityf, An analy- sis of this statement reveals t.he fact that the church also has the power to mold character. A character produced under the influence of religion is very different from that of a person who is not under the religious influence. Many people have the idea that religion should only be the concern of the middle aged people and the old. This is not true. Religion should be taught the child of three or four years of age, but if not practiced at this time it is never too late. The home and church unite to teach the child right and wrong. These two factors work side by side. The inhuences of one are usually molded by the other, and thus, the church should be part of the training of the young. Character must be built well, Else our lives are incomplete Standing in these walls of time: Broken stair-ways where the feet St-umble, as they strive to climb. Character is built by stages, and more is added to each stage until the finished towers above its fellow structures. As the foundation is laid at the commencement of a building, so religion is the basis of a good character. It would be impossible to construct the top story of a building before every ot.her story that is to come before it has been completed. This would be like trying to build a pyramid on its point. And so religion is the foundation of the building, and a good, clean character is the top story towering high above all other structures. It is the foundation which supports the higher stories. Un- pleasant happenings may occur in life, but if there is a clear conscience your char- acter will be like the house which 'fell not' when the flood came, 'for it was founded upon a rock'. And now the first impressions in the shapeless clay are completed. To most people this mound of earth appears to be nothing out of the ordinary, but the work is left for another skilful person to com- pleteg one who will transform the clay statue into a bronze or marble master- piece. And so our children have grasped SEVENTEEN THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO the first impressions offered them, and are now ready to expand these impressions and offer to the world a character, not like the large impressions in the shapeless clay, but like the finely etched work in the com- pleted statue. Luella Emery New . Sculptors For many years the home and the church were the only agencies which made the training of youth an important object- ive. Under the old simplified method of life this type of instruction was sufficient. One did not need a college, or even a high school education to fit him for his life's work. Today everything is changed. Society is complex, competition is keen. This is an age of specialization and one must be well trained in order to secure even the everyday necessities. It is necessary to call upon new sculptors to fashion the mind required of modern youth by this advanced age. The home and church have called upon the state, not to take over, but to supplement their work -to develop a comprehensive system of education which will fit youth for everyday life. Clothed beneath the course of studies in every high school are found the object- ives of the new sculptor. In order for his perspective and symmetry t.o represent true values and actual relationships the emphasis must be placed upon education for life today as well as the future. That phase of education which stresses health and moral character is valuable only in so far as present knowledge and experience make them vital. How the school has made provision for the worthy use of leisure time and the development of good citizens has already been demonstrated through previous graduation programs. People like to find their heroes in the past. Many historical figures serve to represent the desirable qualities of man. EIGHTEEN If we were to forget everything else about- George Washington, we should always remember that he had a magnetic per- sonality that attracted people to him, and a character and wisdom that won respect. His personality, or one might say his kind- liness, his tact, his spirit of tolerat-ion, his genuine patriotism, made him an outstand- ing figure in the Nation. Such a man may well serve as a model to the new sculptor. All education depends primarily upon the establishment of desirable learning situations and only secondarily upon the material used. This is especially true in the case of character education. A school that imparts knowledge, develops skills, cultivates tastes or intel- lectual aptitudes, fails of its supreme object if it leaves the student no better morally. The method of instruction in this field is difficult to determine. If character train- ing were to he left to indirect methods by which it is assumed the students derive desirable habits simply from classroom activities, no new contribution to character education could be claimed, for the princi- ples of algebraic equations, Latin verbs and multiplication processes are the same today as they were years ago. The teach- ers have found that the most effective type of character education is that which grows out of actual situations. For exam- ple, Orange High School aims to maintain the highest standards of conduct in its extra-curricula activities. It is not only for the benefit of the student while in school that the administration stresses certain rules, but it is hoped that students may become so accustomed to doing things correctly at school that they will do the same when attending public func- tions, thereby lifting the standards of the community. The development in each individual pupil of a good character, which shall control his conduct in and out of school and throughout his later life, is an educa- tional task which will require a great deal THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO of consideration. No one can determine the demands of society a generation hence, but it may be assumed that the fundamental principles of character will not change a great deal, and if youth is trained to meet the demands of today he will be trained to meet the demands of tomorrow. The assassination of the President of France and the Premier of Japan is trace- able to a weakness in character--the failure of the assassins to realize that the way to gain an objective is not through terrorism, but through the machinery of justice which has been set up by modern countries. The schools have accepted the added responsibility of training youth which the Industrial Revolution has placed upon them. There is a common tendency to cling to old ways and methods. Every innovation has to fight for its life, and every good thing had been condemned in its day and generation. Error once set in motion continues indefinitely unless block- ed by a stronger force. Of necessity, the school must be conservative-it cannot be a faddist. Therefore the school is often an object of criticism. Although to a certain extent some of the criticism may be justi- fied, it is an undoubted fact that the school is progressing rapidly. As new sculptors fashioning the citizens of tomorrow, the schools have supplemented the efforts of the home and community. Elinor Stone - The Masterpiece We are looking back tonight upon our school career. In turning back the pages which make up our school life, we find many pleasant memories which we shall long remember and prize. These mem- ories are to us the pictorial record of those stages of sculpture through which our characters have been shaped. The in- tiuence which our teachers have had upon us is easily traceable to our first days in school. During the first years of school our dependence upon our teachers was great. Upon our entering high school, we were surprised to find that the responsi- bility for the successful completion of our tasks had been shifted to our shoulders. We began to learn by doing. Probably at no other period in one's life is there such a definite expansion of interest as takes place during the high school period. We leave t.he environs of our home and community, and begin to think and act in terms of a fuller and richer social, religious, and political life. The community must be willing to accept the responsibility of educating its citizens. Payson Smith, the commissioner of education in Massachusetts, says, Among the objectives of education no other is as important as that of the estab- lishment of good character. The develop- ment of correct standards of personal conduct including, of course, the right relationship of the individual to the social group of which he is a part, should have a commanding place in any program of education. The obligation of the state does not cease with the expenditure of millions of dollars. There is the necessity for im- proving the condition that exists within the community, otherwise, the money will have been spent in vain. If the schools emphasize correct habits of living, and the state allows questionable practices within its boundaries, the latter is certain to off-set the former. It is stated in a survey made by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on Character Education, that H physical fitness and mental acumen become liabilities and not. assets, unfess they are kept by a trained will under the control of a high moral purpose. It is a generally under- stood fact that beyond the subject instruc- tion lies the equally important field of character building. N INETEEN THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO As we sit here on this platform tonight, we can realize how much we have come to depend upon our schoolmates. We have attended school with most of them for twelve years, and it is only natural that we have become greatly accustomed to their ways and habits. The main reason that we feel as friendly as we do toward each other is because of a thing which we have had stressed to us a great deal in high school, and that is team work. We learned that if a young man wishes to succeed in a vocation, he must learn, sooner or later, that any organization is exactly the same as a football team, inas- much as there must be harmony within the group. Often times we little realize how closely environment and character are woven together. Many times the less fortunate pupils are misjudged as to their character. As the famous saying goes, Hlt is not the clothes that make the man. VVe sometimes forget this, but during our school years we have come, through our close association with our schoolmates, to judge them for what they are. The door of the world is opening for us tonight. We can view through that door, agreat many roads. We shall not all follow the same road, of course, but we are all going to start and continue up the roads which are marked Honor and Success, with our masterpieces clutched tightly in our hands. We shall now view with a new interest, the great gallery of life. We can see little, if any, room there, but many years from tonight, when we again view that same gallery, we all hope and feel certain, that we will find the masterpiece of our high school days standing out as one of the foremost accomplishments of life. The words of the poet, George Wash- ington Doane, sums up the thoughts which are uppermost in our minds: Chisel in hand stood a sculpture boy With his marble block before him, And his eyes lit up with a smile of joy, As an angel-dream passed o'er him. He carved the dream on t-he shapeless stone With many a sharp incision, With heaven's own light the sculpture shone,- He'd caught that angel-vision. Children of life are we, as we stand With our lives uncarved before us, Waiting the hour when, at God's command, Our life-dream shall pass o'er us. If we carve it then on the yielding st-one, With many a sharp incision, Its heavenly beauty shall be our own,- Our lives, that angel-vision.

Dr. Muzzey, a popular dentist, spoke on dent- istry. Mr. Anderson, pastor of the Metho- dist church, on ministry, and Mr. White, a chemist at the Tapioca factory, on chemistry. Both graded school and high school pupils as well as many townspeople, at- tended an illustrated lecture on Alaska in the auditorium, March 23, by Edgar C. Rainy, who has spent much time in Alaska. He gave us many exciting details on his experiences. COMMERCIAL CLUB The Commercial Club has been or- ganized for the sole purpose of furthering the interests of the students, commercially. Men who are engaged in some local busi- ness have been our speakers. Among them are: Mr. H. P. Warren, connected with the Minute Tapioca Company, Mr. Bishop, a local Dry Goods Merchant, Mr. Frank Howe, president of the Orange National Bank and Mr. Roy Cooke, of the Wood Turning Business. TENNIS CLUB The Tennis Club in addition to clean- ing up the Fountain Street Courts, has placed new barriers in the courts. FRENCH CLUB The French Club has had most inter- esting monthly meetings this year. Res- taurant, Street, Station, Home, and Party scenes have been depicted by various members of the Club. French news- papers, post-cards, and several different French magazines have been enjoyed by the Club at all meetings. DRAM ATIC CLUB Miss Kingsbury spoke to the Drama- tic Club at the April meeting on Make- up. Mr. Verney spoke at the May meeting on his experiences with the Copley players. On Wednesda.y, May 18, the Dramatic Club presented their second assembly of the year. At this assembly they presented the one-act play, The Kelly Kid. The cast included the following: Mrs. Murphy Jean Pagan Mrs. Cahill Barbara Cadwell Mrs. Callahan Priscilla Claflin Ellen Murphy Laurice Humphrey Robbie Kelly Robert Gregory Officer Hamilton George Rost Officer Burns Paul Hempel MANSFIELD SINGERS Friday, April 15, the townspeople were invited to an unusual assembly held in the auditorium. At this time the Mansfield Singers a negro quartet, presented an hour's entertainment of negro spirituals and folk songs. Continued on page 27 TWENTY-THREE THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO OFFICERS OF THE JUNIOR CLASS History of the Class of 1933 The class of 1933 entered Orange High School in September 1929. Under the advisorship of Miss Tubbs the class held its first meeting, electing Stewart Robbins as President, R.uth Moore as Vice-President, Ralph Kenney as Treas- urer, and Elsie Olson as Secretary. Leslie Laughton was chosen Crinds Editor for the Peals. Later in the year Charles MacMillan, Edith Bergquist and Marjorie Mahal' were elected to represent the class at Student Council meetings. Blue and Gold were chosen for class colors. At the beginning of their Sophomore year the class of '33 elected Mr. Riccio as class advisor. Later, because Mr. Riccio left Orange High School for another position, Miss Kingsbury was elected to take his place. The class officers for that year were: President, Merle Cross, Vice- President, Edith Bergquistg Secretary, Cecilia Ambrose, and Treasurer, Robert Whitney. Paul Hastings was Grinds Editor for the Peals, and Ruth Anderson, Ralph Kenney, George Rost, Leon Norris and Helen Ward were the representatives to the Student Council. The class made big successes out of their first dance and considerable profits were realized TWENTY-FOUR from both. The idea of having One-Act. Plays was introduced by the Student Council and with Mr. Littleiield as coach the class of '33 took first prize. The class of '33 began their Junior year by electing class officers as follows: President, Charles MacMillan, Vice-Pres- ident, Marjorie Maharg Secretary, Ruth Anderson, and Treasurer, Paul Hastings. Edith Bergquist, Cecilia Ambrose, Vernon Coutu, Merle Cross and George Rost were elected to Student Council. Dorothy Kellogg, Dorothy Smith, Cecilia Ambrose, Doris Steinberg and Ralph Kenney were chosen to fill the Junior positions on the Peals staff. On February 8 the Junior Class gave their prom to the Seniors. Under the general chairmanship of Ruth Moore the prom was a success. Again, with Mr. Littlelield as coach, the Junior Class won first prize with their one-act play, Lotus Flowers. The class of 1933 has almost finished its third memorable year in Orange High School with much successful work to its credit. We hope the fourth and last year will be just as successful as the last three. Ruth Anderson, '33 THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO OFFICERS OF THE SOPHOMORE CLASS History of the Class of 1934 We, the class of 1934, were ushered, with all honors paid to us by the upper classmen, into Miss Tubb's room, which is familiar to everyone by this time and is known as Room 213' Miss Tubbs was good to us and we respect her for it. On September sixteenth we held our first class meeting with Miss Tubbs as chairman. The officers for the year were: President, Delbert Witty, Vice-President, Vilinifred Reed, Treasurer, Russell Dexter, Secretary, Evelyn Parker. Our class col- ors are fawn and coral. The members of the class of 1934 chosen to represent us in the Student Council were: Harold Duval, John Walker, and Anne Sironaitis. The one-act plays were introduced into the Orange High School while we were Freshmen. The committee in charge was: Geraldine Murchie, Eleanor Thomas, and Anne Sironaitis. Mr. Moody was chosen as our director for the play. Richard VVhitney was chosen as our class marshal. Our freshman days were then over. Upon entering school in September as sophomores, we followed the usual, Fresh- men Initiation. The following officers were elected for our sophomore year: President, Harold Duval, Vice-President, Phylis Bargerong Treasurer, Delbert Witty, Secretary, Mary Clarke. Our first reception was held April twenty-ninth. The committee in charge was Adele Yuoconis, Dexter Wood, Alice Earle, Delbert Witty, and Harold Duval. The reception turned out a success. Mary Clarke, '34 TWENTY-FIVE THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO OFFICERS OF THE FRESHMAN CLASS History of the Class of 1935 The class of 1935 has almost completed its first. eventful year in High School. We have had two important meetings: The election of class officers and the election of three students for membership in the Student Council. The following class officers were chosen: President, Dexter Clafling Vice-President, Marguerite Drew, Treasurer, John Rob- bins, Secretary, Winifred Clarke. When Marguerite Drew left Orange High School early in the year her position was filled by Alice Bergquist. The three students elected to the Student Council were: Harriet Johnson, TWENTY-SIX Robert White and Earle Witty. In the inter-class games the Freshman class has had a great many victories. The first one the Freshmen celebrated was the rope pull. In baseball, soccer, and other sports the Freshman class has been well represented. The Freshman class participated in one of the outstanding events of the school year, the One-Act Play Contest. The play was called, Bargains Harriet Johnson carried the leading role supported by Vir- ginia Baldwin, Charlotte Hanson, and Dexter Claflin. W inifred Clarke '35 fir THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO School eWSnCon1inuedfrom page 23 TEACHERS' ASSEMBLY The annual teachers' assembly took the form of a Broadcasting Station with Mr. Mitchell in charge. Mr. Moody pepped us up with morning exercises. Mr. Littlefield gave us the news of the day. Many new household hints were offered by Miss Kingsbury and Miss Percy. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson CML Crocker and Mr. Davisj cleverly convicted Miss Musgrove of the murder of her brother. Bert and Bess CCoach Verney and Miss Crosbyj gave us a glimpse of the home life of Newlyweds with dissimilar ideas, especially when the bride has musi- cal talents as well as being a crack shot. Miss Partridge Cassisted by Mr. Moody as nurse-maidj told a most appro- priate bedtime story. The assembly was concluded with selections by the Tully Mountaineers. CML Davis and Mr. Crockerj On May 4,iMr. Talbot again gained our interest by one of his illustrated lec- tures on birds. He showed us pictures both of familiar birds, and those which we seldom see. OPERETTA Friday, May 6, Jerry of Jerricho Road was successfully presented by the members of the Glee Club and orchestra under the direction of Mr. Fontaine. The dancing chorus displayed much talent in their attractive costumes designed by Miss Brooks. ONE ACT PLAYS The Junior Class again carried away the honors at the One Act Play Contest. Lotus Flowers was their presentation. It was coached by Mr. Littlefield. Res- pectfully Concentratedn given by the Sophomores and coached by Mr. Verney, took second prize. The Freshman play, Bargains received third prize, and Diab0lical Circle presented by the Sen- iors, was given fourth prize. FORUM The German Reparationn was the topic considered at the April meeting of the Forum. Later in April about 35 members of the Club had the privilege of visiting the Historical Rooms at the Wheeler Memorial Library. At the May meeting there was much discussion on the topic War and Peace. . SCIENCE CLUB A Science Club was formed in Orange High School after our Christmas vacation, when a general desire was shown for such a club. Our name was permanently de- termined when, in the charter we sub- mitted to the Student Council, we declared ourselves as the Kem Kraft Klub. We are as yet at the foot of the ladder, as the Club is in its infancy, but such a club cannot long remain unnoticed. We endeavor to prove by statistics and scien- tific facts the utter fallacies of common superstition, as well as to determine the worth of preparations for sale on every merchant's counter. With this for a guide we should be able to increase our wisdom and perhaps, save ourselves money. SOPHOMORE PROM The Sophomore Class held their first reception in the gymnasium, Friday, April 29. Dainty Japanese decorations and Crowl's Orchestra helped to make this reception a great success.

THE ORANGE PEALS, JUNE, NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO Q Athletics ORANGE MAULS SOUTH DEERFIELD The first game of the season was played April 16 at the local park. There was no question in anyone's mind as to whether or not the Orange boys took advantage of South Deerfield's weakness. At the end of the ninth inning, Orange had rolled their score to 16 to South Deerfield's 2. SHELBURNE FALLS KN EELS TO ORANGE It certainly was a pity that a game like this had to be played out of town, for the student body always enjoys watch- ing Joe put them out 1-2-3. Shelburne, however, managed to get 4 to our 6 even at that. ORANGE WINS 3RD STRAIGHT GAME On April 23rd in Deerfield the Orange boys showed the Deerfield seconds where to head in, when they defeated them 19-11. This wouldn't have been as sad, had it not been on the Deerfield lads' own playground. BARRE LOSES GAME TO ORANGE Home again the local nine showed the Barre crew how to play baseball. And how! The Orange team carried away the honors with a victory of 13-5. FIFTH VICTORY IN A ROW The game played at Butterfield park April 30 with Winchendon, was a little doubtful as to the winner, until near the very last of the game when Orange showed its superiority and won 7-5. GARDNER DEFEATS ORANGE The first game to be lost by our locals was played against Gardner, May 4. However, there is nothing lost without some small gain. Coach Verney gave Shatos and Belsky a try at pitching near the first of the game and demonstrated to the school their possibilities for future pitchers. ORANGE LOSES TO GREENFIELD The Greenfield team proved to be too much for Orange even on our own grounds. They carried home the bacon which happened to be 5 runs to our 2. Glasson: It stands to reason that if. a man had a couple of bulls weighing about 600 or 650 pounds apiece- Overing Cinterrupting himjz That's a lot of bull. Mr. Hastings: Is there anyone in your family who sings besides you? Mr. Robbins: Well, my brother sang before he got- married but he hasn't sung since.
