'Q lass History use ELLLE As graduation time draws near we find ourselves turning back the pages of our albums. In looking back we find that on September 5, 1938 there were 23 members in the Freshman class. They were: La Vonne Adams, Ruth Marie Brown, Clyde Burton, Christian Burkhardt, Beulah -Clarke, Bill Colburn, Carl Davison, Le Roy Doncheskey Virginia Gee, John Golden, Virginia Hodge, Paul Hunt, Glenola Kunnemann, Vivian- Newlon, Milton Suck, Robert Taylor, Rex Vansickle, Dorothy Weber, Lorene Whited, Marion Winchell, Onilee Winchell, and Louis Zuehlke. Of these we find that Beulah Clarke and Robert Taylor were the only ones remaining together all of the twelve years. Others that joined in the grades were: John Golden, Le Roy Doncheske, Paul Hunt, Lorene Whited, Virginia Hodge, Clyde' Burton, Carl Davison, and Glenola Kunneman. Our class officers for that year were as follows: Robert Taylor, President: Paul Hunt, Vice-Pesidentg John Golden, Secretary-Treasurer, Martin E, Carlson, Sponsor. We were initiated on September 23. During the year we had two roller skating parties, a theater party and a wiener roast at the river. On September 4, 1939 we entered school as Sophomores which we discovered was a little better than beinu: a Freshman. The following were not with us this year: La Vonne Adams, Bill Colborn, Ruth Marie Brown, and Rex Vahsickle. We elected the following officers: Milton, President: Onilee, Vice-President: Virginia Gee, Secretary-Treasurer: Coach , Sponsor A During the year we had a picnic at the home of Margaret Burkhardt, a roller skating party, a Valentine party at the home of Vivian Newlon and a theater party. We gave a one-act play Hold Everything , On September 5, 1940 we entered school as Juniors. The officers were as fol- lows: Paul Hunt, President: Le Roy Doncheske, Vice-President: Onilee Winchell Secretary-Treasurer: Coach , Sponsor. During the year we had two parties, one a theater party and the other a wiener roast at the river. One of the big events of the year was the Junior play Bolts and Nuts . Another big event was the Junior-Senior Banquet. Patriotic decorations suitable to the theme Defense made a very attractive setting. On March 25 we went to Grand Island, for our Skip Day, and visited various places of interest. On September 6, 1941 the dignified Seniors found their places. We lost the fol- lowing from our class: Paul Hunt and Glenola Kunnemann. The class officers were: 'Clyde Burton, Presidentg Dorothy Weber, Vice-Presi- dent: Onilee Winchell, Secretary-Treasurer, Coach , Sponsor. The class colors chos- en were Light Blue and Silver, our flower, white carnation, and our motto: Climb, though the rocks be rugged. During the year we had a theater party, a gum party and a roller skating party. On November 15 we visited the photographer in Hastings. Many of us were sur- prised at the results. April 21 found a majority of the class in Hastings for Career Day at the college. We gave the Senior play Don't Go West, Go Western , April 24 and 25. On April 27 we lost our dignity and went to Lincoln for Sneak Day. The Junior-Senior Banquet was held May 6, at the Methodist church. The Senior breakfast was held May 12 at the H, H. Golden home at 7:45 a. m. Mrs. Alvah Gee and Mrs. Golden were hostesses. Guests included the seniors, the faculty, Mrs. E. B. Marshall and Miss Emma zCarlson. Baccalaureate Services were held at the Methodist Church May 10. The Com mencement program was May 13 with Dr. David Grant, of Hastings, speaker. As we leave Palmer High School we shall take with us the memories of the good times as well as the Ibad. We hope our accomplishments will be worthy of the time and work that our parents and teachers have spent to make this event possible.

The foregoing instrument was signed by the said CLASS OF 1942 and declared as and for their Last Will and Testament and at their request and in their presence. and in the presence of each other, we hereunto subscribe our names as attesting witnesses at Palmer, Nebr., this Thirteenth-day of May A. D. 1942. Beulah M. Clarke. resides at Palmer, Nebraska Clyde S. Burtutyresides at Palmer, Nebraska Virginia G. Gee, resides at Palmer, Nebraska lass Prophecy P2-'L-'2 -'M May 13, 1957. After fifteen years -the senior class of 1942 has decided to have a class reunion at the Zuehlke Zuper Zanitarium at Hastings, Nebraska, now being operated by Mr. and Mrs. George Zuehlke, Mrs. Zuehlke, the former Miss Margaret Burkhardt, was a charming hostess to the group. As they arrived they signed the guest book, listing their accomplishments of the past fifteen years. It read as followszi V Clyde Burton is married to one of his admirers from Sutton. He photographs models in an art school in New York. Beulah Clarke has accepted a position as a dancer in Germany now that the war is over. LeRoy Doncheske settled down on his rattlesnake farm, deep in the heart of Texas. Carl Davison is now playing Clark Ga.ble's second anti lives at his home in Beverly Hills Virginia Gee is a private secretary of a high. government official, with good pay, and another girl to do all the office-work. Cvnilee Winchell has taken French to heart, so she went to Paris - as a house- hold-wife of course. .Tohn Golden has joined the ranks of newspaper men and is now working on one of the biggest stories ever to come from the South Sea Islands. Viiginia, Hodge is a bathing beauty on the beaches of Miami, Florida. Christian Burkhardt is married and has taken up doctoring as a sideline. More than likely he is pretty busy. Dorothy Weber, after a teaching career of several years, has married and is an excellent housewife and Baker. Vivian Newlon, after years of hard study in college, has belcgme the leading Song- stress with Glenn' Miller-'s orchestra. Milton Suck, who has always been our class poet, is now publishing his works in fthe VVo:rm's Crawler , which is a very prominent newspaper now. Lorene Whited, after going through a lot of red tape, has finally got her man and has settled down on a little farm south of town. Robert Taylor finished his course in' doctoring and is a doctor in the Navy Train- ing Academy on the Great lakes. Louis Zuehlke, after studying hard, has become a lawyer, but has never won a case in court because he is too bashful. Marion Winchell has settled down on his little horse farm in Kentucky and is still trying to perefct the Old Gray Mare. Carl Davison Marion Winchell Lorene Whited lass Poem Thrcirgh four short years of toil interspersed with careless' play, This class together struggled And met what came their way. This group of nonconformists Never could agree, They'd argue with careless banter Though a reason they couldn't see. Now ba.shful Bob is quite a man Tis very plain to note. Ah, let me live with memories! His very words I quote. Just think of luxurious, brilliant, black hair And Virginia Gee comes to your mind, She attends almost every public affair. And treats all the kids most kind. A lad we all like very well, A cute guy, you can see. We all think he is mighty swell. His name is Louis Z. las Poem m... .ms Marion, well, he's just our Man. He is so big and strong. A fiction book is his main repast And that boy is never wrong. Carl, the friend of all he knows, With his red and wavy hair, If you see a lot of pretty girls I think you'll find him there. In boxing this boy is really fast. He seems to dote on fun., This is Clyde, our president, And a friend of everyone. Of course there's Beulah, who likes to dance Or go riding in a Plymouth car. She studies when she gets a chance Though her sleep is seldom up to par, Next we're proud to mention Christian, a boy from the farm, And he deserves attention For his friendliness and charm. Next we have a hard working lad Who is a blue-eyed farmer boy. He is always happy and cheerful And goes ,by the name, Le Roy, Remember our valedictorian Who has studied and worked so hard. Onilee is our secretary And kept our records from becoming marred. Lorene, our Army girl, She wants to help Uncle Sam. She means to keep up the morale Of a certain young army man. Vivian has pretty blond hair Of which she is very proud. She likes to play the piano Especially for a crowd. Margaret, who likes the name Georgie, Is short but not very shy. She likes to study sometimes And everything she gives a try. John has his good points and his bad And he's a swell guy to have around. He's a brilliant, attractive lad Who is fond of Riverside grcund. Notice Dorothy who is timid and shyg Who is friendly and Slightly deinure, I'm not positive that she's a baker But she's liked by all, I'm sure. Short and stubby and full of fun And her work she never does dodge, She'll never forget a favor, This is Virginia Hodge. Now Milton is our class poet Who drives a Model-A. I suppose most folks do know it That he's always happy and gay. This brings to a close our roll call Of the class of '42. We hope that you've enjoyed it So good-bye and good luck to you. LeRoy Doncheske, ,Milton Suck enicl' Reecrd Lua. .Inu By Beulah Clarke SEPTEMBER 11, 1941 The seniors thought the first day of school started off very satis- factorily. It was not definitely de- cided as to what subjects were to be taught. However it has been de cided hat we are to have Shorthand II and Algebra II, and so everyone is satisfied. In English we have a consider- able amount of history and we have read some of the older narrative poetry of which the authors are un- known. We are now reading Chau- cer's Canterbury Tales. Friday we took a speed test in typing. The highest scores were a' follows: John Golden, 51 words per minute: Robert Taylor, 46 word: per minute: ard Virginia Hodge 45 words per minute. Virginia Hodge typed for five minutes without er'- rors. This year we have a large class in Directed Speech. There are both juniors and seniors in this class One of the first questions asked in our class was, Why do peopl- talk? 'That was 'rather a dif- ficult question, don't you think? We are learning to direct our speeches toward a definite goal, ad- justing the means of expression tr- fit the needs of the situation. Fri- day we recited poems, trying to ex- press the feeling of the author. Speaking before the class gives us more self-confidence and ease 'be- fore an audience. To give a success- flll Slleeclr one must learn to act natural before an audience. At our class meeting Wednesday morning, Clyde Burton was elected president: Dorothy Weber was elec- ted vice-presidentg and Onilee Win- chell was elected secr'etary-treasur- er. Mr. Carlson was chosen to be our sponsor. . SEPTEMBER 18, 1941 The seniors have received as many tests as usual this week. We are about ready to take up the strdy of Shakespeare in English class. In typing the scores in the speed test were as follows: John 46 words per minute: Vi rginia G., 42 words per minute: Milton, 41 words per minute. In Directed Speech we have chang- ed teachers. We think Mr. Carlson thought we were impossible so we now have Miss Ericson as our teacher. We have to begin by giving a speech Tough luck! Due to the fact that we have but two microscopes in the biology class we were afraid of a slight handicap when the time came for microscopic study, however we will soon be us- ing a new micro-projector. This equipment is designed especially for high schools and projects onto a screen or wall where the whole class can study it at the same time. Another piece of new equipment which we will have soon is an aquarium or glass tank in which living specimens may be kept and the plants growing in chemicals may be studied. SEPTEMBER 25, 1941 Friday found us taking another speed test in typing. The scores were as follows: Virginia Gee and Beulah Clark, 43 words per minute: The 12th gade English class is reading Shakespeare's famous play. Macbeth. The underlying theme is the destructive effect of misdirect- ed ambition. This play, often re- ferred to as, a tempest set to mu- sic, tells about the tragedy that be falls the ambitious general, Mac- beth. We are having a little trouble in Directed Speech in convincing some of the cliss that it's necessary while taking this subject to stand in front of the class, and give a speech. No- tice I said, star1d in front of the class, because we do have a con- siderable number that like to give corfidential speeches to their neigh- bors. We are looking forward to getting our new books this week. SENIOR CLASS MEETING The Seniors held a meet ng Sept 22 to elect the Palmerite staff. The following were Milton Suck: Beulah Clarke: Robert Taylor: John Golden: Carl Davison: ' Beulah Clarke: Virginia Gee: Clyde Burton: John Golden: Beulah Clarke: Elma Burton: Sue Golden: Lorena Fishel: e,e:ted or chosen: Editor-in-ch'ef Assistant Editor Advertising Comm Humor Column Snapshot Editor Sports Editor Senior News Reporter Junior News Reporter Sophomore News Reporter Freshman News Reporter Dorothy Weber: lst, 2nd, 3rd anu 4th Grade Reporter Onilee Winchell: 5th, 6th, 7th and Sth Grade Reporter By the Sec.-Treas., OCTOBER 2, 1941 Ore of our interesting assignments in Directed Speech this week was to read a poem in monotone and then read it correctly. Sometimes we were very mrch confused as to whether we were reading in monotone or if we were reading it correctly. The assignment sounded easy but we found it quite difficult. Our new 'books have arrived. They are es- pecially written for high school stu- dents and therefore we find them much more interesting than the others. The advanced typing class is slow- ly but surely increasing their speed. The scores for this week are: Vir- ginia Gee, 45 words per minute: Beu- lah Clarke, 44 words per minute: Robert Taylor 43 words per minute. Second year shorthand are now working for an increase in speed. Nearly everyone in the class can have managed to take 70. However, take 60 words per minute and a few at that rate of reading Miss Kutcher States that she usual.y hears Whoa from several members of the class. OCTOBER 9, 1941 This week the senior class enjoyed i???J a longer assignment in typi g. We don't know whether we're im- proving or not but Miss Kutcher evidently thinks so. The scores are: Beulah Clarke, 47 words per minute, Robert Taylor 46 words per minute, and Virginia Gee 43 words per' min- ute. .lust when we think we're get- ting to be better and faster typers we start going backwards instead of forwards. This week the Biology class is stud- ying about the different kinds of cells We also have studied about the life of insects, and how they live. The English class has discovered that it has some very promising young authors. We have -been study- ing Lyric poetry, which expresses the feelings of the author. Mis Ericson had everyone in the class write a poem of at least six stanzas. The senior class enjoyed a theatre party Tuesday night at St. Paul. The name of the show was, Shepherd of the Hills. A good time was had by all. enior Record OCTOBER 16, 1941 This week the English class has spent their time worrying about the six weeks test and learning the poem On His Blindness by John Milton. To add to our worries we read the poem Death , by Raleigh. It's not what we call an interesting subject. Bump into someone and watch their reaction. That was rather an interesting assignment. At least the Directed Speech class thought it was However it was decided quite de- finitely that we were only to bump into one person. We find Directed Speech very interesting. especially so, since we've been studying about facial expressions, and thoughts conveyed by the eyes. We have learned that body actions play a very definite part in a speech. For a change Miss Kutcher gave us a five minute speed test instead of the usual ten minute one. The were as follows: Beulah scores Clarke, 53 words per minute: John Golden 45 words per minute: and Milton Suck 44 words per minute. OCTOBER 23, 1941 In English Literature class we are now studying Hamlet one of Shakespeare's most famous tragedies It is considered one of his most in- spiring dramas. In Directed Speech we are study- ing about the effect of body move- ment while giving a speech. We learned that by actually thinking what we said, the body would res- pond accordingly. We also gave a speech this week illustrating some peculiar mannerisms of speakers which we had noticed. We had two speed tests this week in Typing. The scores in the first test were: Beulah Clarks, 53 words per minute: John Golden, 45 words per minute: and Milton Suck, 44 words per minute. The other test, which was supposed to be five min- utes long, but turned out to -be 515 minutes, John Golden had the high- est score, typing 61 words per min. SSN!- Beulah: Mother, there isn't any harm in walking in the park with a young man after dark, is ther'? Mother: No, not if you keep on walking. When I was young, I of- ten went walking in the park at night. Beulah: And did you keep on walking? Mother: Hush,-- it's time for you to go to bed. Lafe: Care to buy a letter opener? Speck: No thanks, I've got a wife. OUR FAVORITE SONGS Christian Burkhardt: Sunrise Serenade Margaret Burkhardt: -Star Over the Campus 'Clyde Burton: .......... Stardust Beulah Clarke: ....

Clouds OCTOBER 39. 1941 The twelfth grade English class is still reading about Hamlet, which is in many ways similar to Macbeth. Here's a version of the way Shakes- peare writes: Eddie Canter phoned Maurice Evans, who is rehearsing for a new fall production of Macbeth. A page boy summoned the Shakespearean actor to the phone. Evans lifted the receiver and said: Hail Edward. What's cooking with thee? We have taken a five minute speed test nearly every day in typing class: The three highest scores obtained were: John Golden, 67 words per min- ute: Robert Taylor, 60 words per minute: and Beulah Clarke 54 words per minute. The -biology class finished their experiment on the starfish and have started to experiment with the frogs. Our laboratory period Tuesday was spent in drawing the outside and the inside of the frog. These frogs were the ones that had been in the form- aldehyde. Thursday we are going to PAL ERITE experiment with one of the live frogs that we have had in the laboratory since the beginning of school. NOVEMBER 6.1941 In English we have finished Ham- let, and are looking forward to the much dreaded test. I think most of the class have enjoyed the Shakes- pearean play. Miss Ericson :If Shakespeare were alive today, he would be famous. Clyde : Naturally, he'd be over 300 years old. Each member of the Directed Speech class were asked to describe some building. Prince's store was des- cribed twice as there was a difference of opinion.. Even the Archer gro- cery store was described. The class as a whole is learning to speak with more ease and confidence. Imagine--this week we didn't have a speed test! However, we had an assignment which 'made up for it. NOVEMBER 13,1941 The twelfth grade English class are now writing short stories. We had a choice between reading As You Like It , which is one of Shake- spear's comedies, or writing a short story. We were informed, however, we would have to do both sometime, so I'm not sure if you'd call it a choice or not. We took two typing tests this Week, so I averaged each person's scores. The results were: Beulah Clarke, 45 words per minute: Robert Taylor, 44 words per minute: John Golden, 43 words per minute: and Virginia Gee, 42 words per minute. The Biology class has just re- ceived three new books on the study of insects, birds, and animal life. They describe every kind of insect there is and tell how to dissect them. Everyone in high school has enjoyed this privilege of watching a ,frog's blood circulate, and watching his heart beat. We also have a new aquarium of live animals, such as gold fish, turtles, and salamanders. One of our salamanders has escaped. l...1...1.. Virginia. I don't think I should get zero in this exam. Miss Kutcher: I know it, but it's the lowest mark there is. enior Record I NOVEMBER 20, 1941 The English class has had quite a time writing their short stories. Some of them didn't know how to be- gin them, while others couldn't de- cide where to end them. They were due last Friday. We now plan to read As You Like It , one of Shapes- peare's outstanding comedies. The typing class has been under- taking something new, which I failed to mention last week. We are typ- ing to music. I think almost all of us enjoy the one day a week set a- side for this purpose. The scores for this week were: Beulah, 5? words per minute: Bob, 51 words per minute: John 46 words per minute: and Onilee, 44 words per minute. Almost all of the students in the advanced shorthand class can easily take 65 words per minute. They are taking letters and having to tran- scribe them the next day. They have a little trouble transcribing the letters unless they do it immediately. NOVEMBER 27,1941 We are reading Shakespeare's comedy, As You Like It. Our six weeks test was over the first two acts of the play. Tuesday, the Directed Speech class were in high spirits as they took their seats, as there was no given assignment. However, when Miss Ericson tated that we would take our six weeks test, an i mpromptu speech, everyone tried to remember an appointment which they had somewhere else. A few of the class felt rather sick. One of the topics which the students seemed to like to talk on was, School As I Should Like To Run lt. The scores in typing this week were as follows: Beulah 47 words per minute: Virginia Gee, 46 words per minute: and Robert Taylor, 46 words per minute. I guess things are going from bad to worse. DECEMBER 4,1941 The typing scores for this week were as follows: Robert Taylor, 54 words per minute: Beulah Clarke, 50 words per minute and John Golden 49 words per minute. The Directed Speech class is plan- ning to have an imaginery athletic banquet. We are using the theme, Pep Rally. Last Monday we studied the pronunciation of a number of words. The English Literature class had a very difficult task this week. We memorized one of the speeches in Shakespeare's As You Like It. Some of the class gave it orally and the rest wrote it. The second year shop class are making veneer pictures. They hope to have good results. DECEMBER 11,1941 Unexpectedly the 12th Engilsh class took a test over the third act of As You Like It and it wasn't as we liked it. We look forward to bet- ter days in the future. The Directed Speech class pre- pared a second Imaginary banquet this week. The theme was Spring Time. The students who prepared their speehes did very well. We took both a 5 minute and 10 minute speed test this week Scores in the five minute test were: John. 56 words per minute: Beulah, 53 words per minute: and Milton 49 per minute. Scores in the 10 minute speed test were: Beulah 53 words per minute: John -50 words per min- ute: Robert 46 words per minute. DECEMBER 18, 1941 Friday the seniors took a test over the entire play, As You Like It. We are now starting to read from our text books. The Puritan period will be studied first. The Directed Speech class has been having lessons in spelling. They are an indirect result of not -being quiet at the right time and of being too quiet at the wrong time. This week we had a 15 minute speed test. The scores were: Beulah, 55 words per minute: Robert Taylor,53 words per minute: Onilee Winchell 44 words per minute. Last Monday night the seniors en- joyed a party in the gym. This is the first party we've ever had when every member of the class was pre- sent. We played several games and folk dances. While the girls were fixing the lunch, we found we had some acrobats in our class. A good time was had by all. Milton: I'm in a hurry. Give me a gallon of gasoline. Bob: What are you doing-weam ing your car? PAL RIT! SENIORS' CHRISTMAS WISHES Lorene Whited: Popeye dolly. Onilee Winchell: A Hillbilly band Vivian Newlonz Apron with Strings.

JANUARY 1, 1942 In English we have finished reading the Puritan period and are patiently waiting for the test. Miss Ericson thinks we need more, and better grades in this subject. We had speeches to inform and gave speeches on men and women of importance. We are now writing ra- dio dialogues. The typing scores were as follows: John Golden 48 words per minute: Virginia Gee 44 words: and Bob Tay- lor 44 words per minute. This was a fifteen minute test. Senior Record JANUARY 8. 1942 This week the seniors took no timed writing, as vacation had all of us out of practice. However we did have a machine dictation. It was about Mark Twain, who wrote the first typewritten manuscript. We did quite well on this. In Englisn we have finished the Puritan period. It was during this period that we read Milton's famous religious epic Paradise Lost. We also took a test to see if our taste at choosing colors and designs was good. We disagreed with the experts and of course we thought we were right. The name of the test was, How Good Is Your Taste? Ac- cording to them, it was terrible! The Directed Speech class has been so busy studying on their semester little else. We have to write and learn a ten minute speech as a final test. Everett: Who's the girl with the French heels. John: She's my sister, and those guys aren't French. JANUARY 15, 1942 The eniors spent most of their time reviewing this week. Everyone had his English book and was study- ing. l think the diligence with which they looked over the pages even sur- prised Mrs. Gifford. The Directed Speech class had their last meeting Friday, when the last 10 minute speeches were given. Everyone has doubt as to his ability to recite something he has written. Several members of the class hope to participate in a speech day at St. Edward on January 29. Typing scored for thin week were as follows: Robert Taylor, 50 words per minuteg Beulah Clarke, 50 words per minuteg and Carl Davison, 43 words per minute. Lorene W: ls a chicken big enough to eat when it's two weeks old Onilee': Of course not! Lorene W: Then how does it manage to live JANUARY 22. 1942 Monday morning was spent making out the schedule for the new semes- ter. It seemed that everybody want- ed a different subject. By noon it was all settled. Problems of American Democracy is being taught in place of Directed Speech. The first problem we are taking up is How can we promote right relations am-ong men? Tfhid topic should have been studied more, long ago. We plan to follow a new idea in studying this course. We have discussed dividing the class into groups and letting each group work on a different question. There are many excellent questions in our book which are very interesting to discuss. The English class is preparing for a test over the beginning of the Clasf sical Period. It is during this period that we have the beginning of the novel and the familiar essay. During this particular time of Eng- lish literature there were many cri- tics, such as Samuel Johnson who criticized Milton's Lycidas and Alexander Pope who wrote An Essay on Criticism. We memorized ten epigrams from this essay. One of the most important ones is, Be sil- ent always when you doubt your sense. A special course ln music is being taught this semester under the dir- ection of Mr. Carlson. The first day the class was to meet, the teacher was conveniently detained. The class is learning to detezt the various in- struments on the records played on the phonograph. The value of music has also been discussed in class 1'e- citation, A certain senior girl let it slip her tongue the other day, that after school she would no doubt live on the farm-and she woudn't be visit- ing either. From the sound of things wonder who it could be. JANUARY 29, 1942 In English we are studying the Transition period. The writings dur- this period are much more interest- ing because most of the writings con- tain human feelings and emotions. The writers during this period were dissatisfied with the cold logical feel- ings which the writers of the Classi- cal age expressed in their poetry. In short during the transition w e find PAL RIT! the beginnings of another Renais- sance-another great emancipation of art and life from the fetters of tradition. We- also wrote essays this week. In Problems of American Demo- cracy we are working in groups. Each group is Working on a different topic or problem. Then, each member of the group is working on a subject to- pic. This is newI.to us and it took us quite a while to catch on. But we all think we know how it's done now. Each committee has to give a report before the whole class. This week we took three speed tests tTimed writingsl. Bob had the high- est score in the five minute speed test, typing 49 words per minute. In the ten minute speed test John typed 55 words per minute. In the 15 min- ute speed test Bob and Beulah tied, both getting 49 words per minute. Marion: My uncle's a politician. Rob. What is he running for? Marion: They just looked up his record, and he's running for a train. FEBRUARY 5, 1942 In Problems of American Demo- cracy, the different groups are still giving their reports. There arefive in a committee. As much time is given to each group report as nec- cessary We find this method of study quite interesting. However, when we have finished with the re- fports, we plan to go back to the us- ual method of study. The English class is now studying the Romantic Period in History. However, romantic as used here has a different meaning than what mod- ern Americans usually use it for. At that time it was used to describe a large and complicated body of ideas amd tendencies that characterized English thought and English literary works. Poets adopted a new at- titude toward man and nature, which changed the type and spirit of the poetry, novel and essay. This liter- ature ls much more interesting than that of the Classical period because it contains more emotion and feeling. The scores from our latest speed test were: Beulah 53 words per minuteg John 51 words per minute: and Robert T. and Virginia G, 47 words per minute. Lorene: Do you think you will ever find a perfect girl? Carl: I don't know, but it's been a lot of fun hunting. enior Record FEBRUARY 12, 1942 This week part of the English class memorized Abou Ben Adhem by Leigh Hunt and the rest memorized To Thomas Moore by Lord Byron. Through-out this period 'the poets have a tendency to write about na- ture, animals, and flowers. They were able to take something simple, and ordinary, and by applying char- acteristic poetical tmethod, were able to throw around it an atmosphere of mystery and romance. In Problems of .American Democ- racy we are taking up the character Making Environment Favorable For Right Living. We are rather skip- ping around the book in this course, as the class is choosing the chapter they want to study. We know that by making environment attractive, we can encourage people to main- tain high standards of thought and conduct and remove temptations to v.r:v g-doing. Typing scores for our latest speed test this week were: Robert Taylor 48 words per minute: Virginia Gee 44 words per minute: and Virginia. Hodge 40 words per minute. Doesn't look very good does it? We have had higher scores this week, but since it is impossible to put all the- scores in I choose the ones from the last test. Beulah: Guess I'll be going now. Don't trouble to see me to the door. John: It's no trouble, it's a plea- sure. FEBRUARY 19, 1942 Friday the Democracy class took a test over the chapter, Making En- vironment Favorable for Right Liv- ing. Mr. Carlson decided that it was no use learning what we should do, unless we did it. So, we evaluated ourselves as to our health and re- creational habits. In English we were greatly amused with Charles Lamb's essay on A Disj sertation upon Roast Pig. He goes far back into Chinese history, 'and has such a siznple, gentle, and deli- cate sense of humor that the reader becomes deeply interested. Perhaps the most important narrative poem we read was Cotter's Saturday Night by Robert Burns. This poem is his- toric as well as literary. We finished the Romantic Period and have start- ed. to review for the six weeks test. This week we have been taking some five minute timed writings. The highest scores for the whole week were: John 59 words per minute: Beulah 58 words per minute, Bob Taylor 5-5 words per minute: and Virginia Gee, 51 words per minute. Bob. T: Why did the editor turn down your manuscript? Milton: I have no idea. Bob T: Ah! No Wonder! FEBRUARY 26, 1942 For typing test this six weeks, we had something different. We typed from a pamphlet the entire length of the period. We are to be graded on the amount we typed, and on ac- curacy. No speed tests were taken this week. In English Literature we are study- ing the Victorian Period. which ke- gan in 1832 and ended in 1892. It is called Victorian to indicate that Queen Victoria, who ca.me to the throne in 1837 and died in 1901, was the ruler of England during most of its extent. It is during this period of time that England changed from a agricultural nation to a manufac- turing nation, and thus the problem of capitalism and labor arose. The short story made its first appearance during this time. The class is now reading The Essay on Burns by Carlyle, who was a devoted friend of Burns. The two men had much in common, thus Carlyle was able to present Robert Burns in a new light, as he understood and knew him. The Democracy class had a very interesting discussion last week on whether the water should be dammed up for irrigation or whether it should- n't. There were some very good statements -both for and against. We have finished the chapter Using Wisely the Gifts of Nature. From reading this chapter we realize that conservation is a vital necessity since our natural resources have been wasted in the past. MARCH 5, 1942 Managing Public Finances Wisely PALM RIT-E is the chapter we have just finished in Democracy. We learned the differ- ent ways the government has of raising money and what forms of tax- es are most desirable. It was in 1921 that the Federal government adopted the budget system which still is in use today. We know that the spend- ing of citizens' money is a big pro- position which should be handled or a strictly 'business basis The English class enjoyed reading Life of Samuel Johnson which was written by Thomes Macauley. Several things' characterize this piece of prose. The most outstanding things are: 1. luxuriant dictiong 2. the balanced sentences: 3. and his in- exhaustible flow of illustration. Af- ter reading this biography we can better ugndcrstand the writings of Johnson. We are now reading Ath- ens and Her University written by .Iohn Newman who is noted for his cultivated tone and clear style. Typing scores for this week were: Beulah 53 words per minute: Robert Taylor 52 words per minute, and John Golden 52 words per minute. Marion: If I should attempt to kiss you what would you do? Vivian: I never meet an emer- gency until it arises, Marion: But if it should arise. Vivian: I'd meet it face to face. Bob. T.: You hammer nails like lightning. Clyde: I'm fast, you mean? Bob: No, you never strike twice in the same place. , MARCH 12, 1942 In Democracy we are reading the chapter, Making our Democratic Government Efficient. We know that to make America intelligent, moral, and -prosperous, every good citizen must strive through his own conduct as an individual and through co-operation with other good citizens. This country is irrevocably commit- ted to a federal form of government, an indestructible union composed of indestructible states. Its Consti- tution is the result of the sound judgement of its makers and the long political experience of free peoples. enior' Record A good citizen will respect lt thoroughly, and when he 'believes it needs amendment will seek to bring about changes only -by the reasonable method prescribed in the document itself. The Twelfth English class welcom- ed their new teacher, Miss Carlson, last week. Until recently we have not been studying the lives of the authors, but we find that by doing this we more fully understand the writings and poems. The Philosophy of Umbrellas by Stevenson almost sold us an umbrella. He has ability to take something common and play with it so delightfully that we are forced to laugh. We have also stud- ied Tennyson's poetry and learned one of his selections, Crossing The Bar. Typing scores for this week were: ltwenty minute speed testj Beulah 49 words per minute: Virginia, 44 words per minute, and Onilee W., 43 words per minute. In the 10 minute speed test the scores were: John G., 54 words per minute: Bob T., 52 words per minute. Some of the class also took five minute speed tests this week of which the scores were quite high. The highest were: Beu- lah, 64 words per minute and John G., 61 words per minute. Traffic Cop: Say you! Didn't you see me wave at you? Vivian N: Yes you fresh thing, and if father were here, he'd paste you one for getting so fresh. MARCH 19, 1942 In English we have been studying ly1'ic poetry written during the Vic- torian Period. Browning is the most famous poet during this time. His poem One Word More written to his wife is perhaps one of his best masterpieces. However, his poem, The Lost Leader also excells. It is a spirited defense of democracy and a fierce attack upon someone who has abandoned the liberal poli- tical principles of his youth and sold out to the conservative aristocratic party. He uses such a clear style that lt appeals to the reader. We have noticed the later part of this period showed a tendency to degenerate in- to mere prettiness. Especially the last poem we read this week, We are the Music Makers by Arthur O'Shaugl1- nessy. We took a test over last weeks chapter and have finished reading the chapter entitled. Obtaining Good Legislation. We konw that ln a popular government law-making is fundamental. In this chapter we learn why we have laws. how many laws We should have, what they should deal with and also about our National and State governments. This week we did not have any speed test. I guess our mournful looks appealed to Miss Kutcher and she had compassion on us. We have learned how to crowd and spread let- ters. Chips: Isn't it dangerous to drive a car with one hand? A. S.: Yeah, many a guy has run into a church that way. MARCH 26, 1942 This week the poems in English Literature have proved especially in- teresting. The Lady of Shalott by Tennyson, which deals with medieval romances, is written in such a sweet and dreamy melancholy mood that it makes the reader feel the same. Then Sohrab and Rustum by Mat- thew Arnold. based on Persian ris- tory, is told in a sustained grandeur of style, an extreme simplicity of language, a wealth of descriptive de- tail. and is such a poignantly tragic story of a great national hero tzrat lt holds you-r interest from the start to finish. We have been assigned to learn two stanzas from The Blessed Damozel by Rossettl. This week we are assigned in De- mocracy to learn the present mem- bers of the President's cabinet. We have been studying law making and law enforcement, the powers of Con- gress, the President, Vice President and Cabinet, and state government in general. To have effective adminis- tration we must have well-planned laws, officials chosen with regard to their fitness for the work which they have to do, and a strong public senti- PAL RIT! ment to sustain capable officials. The Typing class have been having some problems of an advanced na- ture, involving the use of figures and special characters. In this type of work accuracy is of supreme im- portance. The stingy farmer was scolding the hired man for carrying a lighted Ian- tern to call on his best girl. Farmer: The idea! When I was courtin'. I never carried no lantern: I went in the dark. Louis: Yes, and look what you got. APRIL 2. 1942 In English we have completed the Victorian period and are beginning the unit entitled, Recent and Cpn- teinporary Literature. This period began in 1892 and continues to the present time. Since the year 1900 there has grown up both in England and in America a whole generation which maintains that questions of marriage, of morality, and of religion should be discussed openly and frank- ly instead of being hushed up ard glossed over. The ideas and behav- ior of many English false Americanj people of today would have shocked the people of the Victorian period beyond words. No outstand- ing poetry was written during this period until about 1900, and then it rose rapidly. The writers seemingly wished to get away from the forms and fashions of the past and to discover new and fresh subjects and new patterns of their own. The first poem we have read during this per- who is The Breathing of Nations, which is a war poem. The poet is in despair because of the condition of the world. He expresses his feelings so vividly that you actually think you are there. Protecting Rights Through the Courts is the cha-pter the Democracy class is now reading. Legislatures make laws and executives put them into operation, but something more is needed to protect the rights of citizens and restrain those who dis- regard the rights of others of their own obligations The courts are vital enior Record parts of free government for through them the people's rights are secured, if anywhere.They have a right to de- mand respect and should maintain high standards of dignity and com- plete impartiality. It is only through study and discussion of these things that one can fully understand them. Scores in the fifteen minute speed test this week were: Beulah 54 words per minute: Bob T., 51 words per words class minute: and Virginia G., 46 per minute. We feel that the as a whole is improving in speed, The only time Coach realizes he has a cold is when some one men- tions it. MARCH 26, 1942 Paul Hunt Writes From San Diego, California Pvt, Paul E. Hunt, 17, former Pal- mer boy, joined the marine corps December Sth. just one day after the Japs made their break at Pearl Har- bor. The following letter written by Paul to his folks at 3177 Larimore Ave., Omaha, Nebraska, was published in a recent issue of the World Herald: SAN DIEGO, CALIF.- Dear Folks: I am in good health and am get- ting alorrg fine. lV'arine life suits me perfectly. I have eight more days of mess duty and then I will go to school, either to airplane mechanics school or radio. Through the influence of one of my buddies I've been think- ing of going to radio school. You know what a bug I was for radio at one time. l'll probably go to school for sixf months and then I have no idea where 1'll be sent. I have a good friend now who I met about three weeks ago. His name is Balfour. He is interested in psy- chology and art and has had several years of college training. We get to- gether and talk about the mind con- scious and subconscious, and the connections they have in forming the character. We study the men in our barracks and the different characters they have. You sure meet all kinds in the marine corps-guys from Chi- cago, Texas, Kansas farms, college men and so on. My favorite recreational pastime is going to the USO building and play- ing phonograph recording and chess. They have a lot of the old recordings that I danced to in the old opera house in Palmer, Neb.. With Love, Paul. Note: Paul was a popular member of our class during the first three years in high school, until he moved with his folks to Omaha during the summer of 1941. Snowing is a word that makes the girls look down. I wonder why? Prof. fRapping on doorl Order please! Voice from back row: Coco-Cola for me. APRIL 9, 1942 The chapter we studied this week in Democracy was, Discovering the People's Will. It began with the question, Who Are the People? It was a very simple question, but prov- ed to contain some very interesting thoughts for study. We call our Government a representative de- mocracy, a government of the peo- ple, by the people, and for the peo- ple. But after reading the chapter and thinking about the subject one would commence L0 wonder if this was actually right. It also expres- sed the thought that since the will of the people is usually expressed through parties, these should be made agencies to voice the people's de- sires and not to control them. And that every citizen should not only have the opportunity to make known his wishes on public questions, but should qualify himself to thought- fully and courageously, with due res- pect to those in authority and to the opinions of those who disagree with him. The question also arose in class discussion as to whether a high school student would have more ability or knowledge as to who to vote for than his parents. I don't believe a final decision was reached. We have studied about many dif- ferent poets this week in English so it would be impossible for me to mention them all. However, one of PAL RITE the most well known poems which we read was Mandalay by Rudyard Kipling. When read aloud, the sing- ing lilt of the lines is irresistible. The typing scores or this week were: Beulah Clarke, 58 words per minute: Robert Taylor, 54 words per minute: and Virginia Gee, 48 words per minute. fThis was a ten minute' speed test.J THE SUNNYSIDE A few bright answers always starts the day off right. A period costume is a dress al' covered with dots. A grass widow is the wife of a veg- etarian. A spinster is a bachelor's wife. Virginia: What are you stopping the flivver for? Beulah C. The road book says to turn north and follow the trolley. We'll have to wait until one comes along. Coach: Mr. Marshall, which of your family made the most brilliant marriage? Mr. Marshall: My wife. Teacher: Everyone of God's crea- tures is here for a useful purpose. Now what do we learn from the mos- quito? Milton: We learn from the mos- quito how easy it is to get stung. Everett S: Why did you kiss that girl in the dark last night? Clyde: Since seeing her in the daylight, I've been wondering myself. A SLIGHT ERROR A gentleman was much surprised when the good-looking young lady greeted him saying, Good evening. He could not remember ever having seen her before. S-he evidently realized that she had made a mistake, for she apologized, and explained: Oh, l'm so sorry. When I first saw you I thought you were the father of two of my children. She walked on while the man star- ed after her. She did not realize, of course, that he was unaware of the fact that she was a school teacher. Senior' Record APRIL 16, 1942 We have taken our English periods this week to study on our play, so we have not read from our books much. We expect to finish reading the Lyric poetry this next week. In Democracy we read the chapter Training 'Communities For Self- Governmenti' It is sometimes hard to decide who is capable of govern- ing themselves, and who is not. A period of preparation is often nec- essary to the most satisfactory en- joyment of self-government. Our' territorial and colonial policy should always be, as it has been, essentially unselfish. Mr. Golden: Well, my son, what did you learn in Sunday School to- day. John: We .learned all about a cross-eyed bear. Mr. Golden: About what? John: Yes sir, named Gladly. We learned a song about him. 'Gladly the cross I'd bear. APRIL 23, 1942- In Democracy we have started : new unit entitled Our Relations wltl Other Countries. No nation ever made Itself felt as a potent factor in the improvement of the world or was long deserving to be character- lzed as progressive that attempted to llve to itself alone. Even with al' our natural resources and advantages which tempt us to think we are self- sufficient, We must not ignore this truth of history, and no intelligent A- merican would wish to do so. Inter- national obligations ought to be as binding morally as agreements be' tween individuals, even though en- forcement of treaties by superior authority is, in the present stage of social progress, difficult to accom- plish. Foreign representatives should be men of tact and judgement. Di- plomacy might well be made a life career for those who are fitted to undertake lt. John Masefield is one of the out- standing poets we are now studying about in English. He is still living and is poet Laureate. One of his poems which I think especially in- teresting is A consecration, which sets forth his purpose to sing not about the powerful, the rich, and the successful but about the scorned- the rejected, the man with too weighty a burden, too weary a load. His way expressing his feelings is very expressive and heart touching. The authors of many of the poems we are now reading, are still living.

It will be over all recent and contemporary Lyric poetry. The Democracy class has started on the unit Elevating American Standards. The very reason why we would have education universal is to uplift American standards. But if our education is to bg of real value to ourselves or our community, we must have, along with the knowledge and ability we acquire, the purpose to use them for the highest good. Perhaps if we understood the motives for why people act as they do we would be able to make effective the various agencies that seek to help people to do right. We wrote the answer to the following question, What kind of town would my town be, if every person were just like me This really is a question that everyone should answer. The typing class is working as PAL RIT! hard as ever. We have done a con- siderable amount of legal work laie- ly, such as, preparing agreements, abstracts of title, deeds, mortgages, wills, and similar legal documents. When the assignment is made, we usually think we're getting off rather easy, as we are aslgned just a few problems. But when We look at the problems, we fully understand! I never knew till I got a car, said Coach, that profanity was so prevalent. Do you hear much of it on the road? ' Marion asked. Why, replied Coach, Nearly everybody I bump into swears dread- fully. Dona: I'm not myself tonight. John: Then we ought to have a good time! CAREER DAY Tuesday, April twenty-first, most of the seniors of Palmer High, along with senior classes from various other schools, were guests of Hast- ings College. The first thing we noticed upon arrival was the friendly attitude of all those on the Campus. We arriv- ed a trifle late, but the ushers im- mediately found us a seat in the Chapel, where we enjoyed an excellent program. The welcome was given by Bob Hughes, president of the Student Association. During morn- ing Chapel Mr. Paul Paulus favored the audience with a violin solo, Dr. J. W. Creighton gave a short, but interesting s-peech. Immediately after this we register- ed, and were given the choice of which guidance clinic we wished to attend. The purpose of the clinics was to provide valuable information concerning college preparation for the students who were planning to enter college. This lasted until the noon hour. At this time we were served a Complimentary luncheon at the Taylor dining hall. We were placed at different tables and in this way we were able to become better acquainted with the -college students, and the visiting seniors. The food served was delicious and plentiful. enicr' Record At 1:30 the different groups were assigned guides, and We made a tour of the Campus. We learned that Hastings college is capable of supply- ing its students with excellent train- ing. They have equipment with which the student can learn to use various business machines. Some of the seniors recorded their voices, and were shocked at how they real- ly sounded. At 3:00 everyone made a grand rush for the Chapel, where we en- joyed a Campus Revue. The num- bers played by the band were about the same as those which we heard at the Band Concert in the evening. We also heard several numbers by the choir. Then came the time to leave the campus, and we did so reluctantly, And, of course you know the sen- iors, we just had to look the town over. We all met about 6:00 and de- cided that we would eat supper in town. We did not have another general assemblage until after the concert. Eight o'clock found all of our members somewhere in the auditor- ium, waiting for the annual spring Band Concert to start. The Knight- bridge March by Eric Coates open- ed the concert, followed by other beautiful arrangements. As a sep- arate part of the concert, the col-net choir played several arrangements. The evening program ended with the national anthem. -Assistant Editor. Two seniors were surprised to learn from one of Mr. Marshall's substitute teachers that he used to be very bashful. Don't you think there's been a change? Clyde out of town one Sunday visit- ing a strange church. He sat in the back pew, and after a while he began to fidget. Leaning over to a white- haired man at his side, evidently an old member of congregation, he whispered: How long has he been preaching . Thirty or forty years, I think, the old man answered. I'll stay then, decided Clyde. He must be nearly done. Senior Class Play Pleases Two Audiences The Senior class play, Don't Go West, Go Western. was given be- fore good sized audiences in the high school auditorium last Friday and Saturday nights. The following characters were in the play: Michael Western- Who owns a large department store, ...... Milton Suck. Sarah Western- His wife, who is trying to live up to her wealth ...... Vivian Newlon. Irving Western- Their son. He returns from two years at college with many revolutionary ideas re- garding the management of the store ........ Robert Taylor. Jacob Solomon- Life-long friend of the Westerns, who owns the se- cond largest department store in town ........ Christian Burkhardt. Fifi Le Flora- Sophisticated and clever, who knows how to look after her own interests, by hook or crook ....... .Onilee Winchell. Stephen Renick- Irving's friend, who has become famous over night through daring aviation adventures- ........Clyde Burton. Helen Renick- His charming sis- ter, who accompanies him on his amazing flights ............ Virginia Gee. Clara Hix- A famous cow-girl rodeo champion from Arizona ....... Beulah Clarke. Patricia- The Irish cook employ- ed by the Westerns -- Margaret Burkhardt. Oswald- Butler at the Westerns. among other things .... John Golden Each one in the cast played his part well. The play was a highly humorous comedy-farce, each scene being en- acted in the Western living room -- time, a week in September. It starts out with Irving Western fBobJ being dismissed from college and coming home to bedevil his father, Mike tMiltonJ,' who owns the largest department store in town and who tells his leading competitor, Jake Solomon, that he has brought Irving home to manage the store. Al- PAL RITE though he is only bluffing, Irving makes him go through with it and 2 series of exciting, interesting, and romantic events follow. Between acts readings were given by Miss Martha Napier. The class and their sponsor, Supt. Carlson, are to be congratulated on their success. The young man called on his best girl and spent the evening. When he arrived there was not a cloud in the sky so he carried no umbrella. At ten o'clock it was raining cats and dogs and the gutters overflowed. My, my, my, said Dorothy: I you go out in this storm you will catch your death of cold. 'Tm afraid I might, was Wayne's answer. Well, I'll tell you what-stay al' nightg you can have Gerald's room and he can sleep down-stairs. She flew upstirs to see that Gerald's room was in order, but the young man was not in sight. In a few min- utes he appeared dripping wet anf' out of breath, with a bundle under his arm. Why, Wayne, where have you been?' she cried. Drove home after my pajamas, was the answer. SENIOR SNEAK DAY Very, very early Monday morning, April 27, found the seniors groping their way to school. This WAS unus- ual and hardly to be expected, for the seniors have a reputation for being late. However, when you know that it was Sneak Day, you can under- stand this early arrival, and sudden change of policy. When all had arrived it was about 5:15 and we started on our journey to the big city of Lincoln, Nebraska. We ate our breakfast in Seward at Milton's Cafe, Our first stop in Lincoln was the University of Nebraska. Then we journeyed out to the Lincoln Flying School where we were informed by one of the students that we don't learn nothin' here. The next stop in our tour was at the Capitol. This was probably the most beautiful and interesting sight This is one time each year, said enior Record of all. We were quite carried away by the beauty and magnitude of what we saw. K TIME OUT FOR LUNCH. Immediately after lunch we visited the police station and the fire de- partment. We all enjoyed ourselves here and had a very interesting guide. Didn't we, girls? We took time for shopping and vis- iting the various department stores. Nearly everyone rode on the escala- tor which proved to be a delightful way to spend time. Many souvenirs were acquired dur- ing the -course of the day. Most dec- orated of all was Milton Suck who bought souvenirs as long as there was any room left on his coat lapels. Some went out to the Penitentiary but no one was allowed to go in. We watched the Lincoln Star print- ing their 5 o'clock edition and then went to eat our supper. In the evening we all attended a double feature movie at the State Theatre. The shows were Klondike Fury and Yokel Boy. We ate a lunch after the show and then start- ed home, a very happy, but also tired group. -One Of Them One day Leroy decided that he would take out life insurance and he was being examined and cross-ex- amined. He had been put through 2' severe physical inspection, and had to answer numerous questions abou' himself, his past, his ancestors, and so on. Finally the examiner asked: You don't dissipate, do you? Not living fast, or doing anything in ex cess? Leroy thought a minute and then with a blank look on his face replied: I-er-I sometimes chew a piece of gum. Onilee: You look depressed, Lor- ene, what are you thing of? Lorene: My future, tYou know, this draft businessl. Onileez What makes it sems so hopeless? Lorene: My past. 'Traffic Cop: Here young lady! What's your name? Virginia: Oh, mine's Virginia What's yours? PAL RIT! MAY 7. 1942 MAY 14, 1942 The Democracy class have been Baccalaureate skipping all over the book lately in The Baccalaureate services for the order to be sure to cover the most C1358 of 19421 Palmer high School valuable material. The last chapter was held at the Methodist church last we read was Assurlng Industrial Sunday evening, with a good sermon Peace. The employer and laborer by Rev. Paul KSHHY of the Church seem to see everything from differ- Of Ch1'iSf- ent viewpoints and through different- colored glasses. At point after point their interests seem to conflict. Strikes is one of the most prominent questions at present because of the war crises. Should workers have the right to strike in time of war? Laboi and capital must for their own good and for the sake of the public be will- ing to allow their disagreements to be settled without interruption of service to the people, if any means of fair settlement are available, especial- ly at the present. Cooperation, not strife, is the ideal for both elements in industry. The Typing class has been given their assignment for the rest of the year, and are we working. tSome- times Miss Kutcher wonders if it's our fingers or our mouths which we work the mostl. The seniors have learned to erase very rapidly, in fact we have some students who can erase so good, that you don't even know they erased when you use the magni- fying glass. English 12 have taken their test, and have just completed reading The Three Strangers by Thomas Hardy, one of the outstanding novelist's of his day. It shows his great skill in presenting the blind impassiveness of nature and the grim depressing as- pects of human life. We read some of this aloud in class. Clyde has such a wonderful sense of humor, that the part he read seemed very amus- ing, and was enjoyed by all! WELL!! John: So your uncle had no chil- dren? Marion: No, none at all. John: Did your father have any? Beulah: If you read something fun- ny in this column what would you think? Barbara: I would think someone else was writing it. Mr. Kenny, that the school and the Church are brought together. Special musical numbers were a vocal solo by Clinton Wegner and a vocal trio by the Weller Trio. The church was beautifully decor- ated with flowers. Senior Breakfast One of the very pleasant events in connection with the school-end acti- vities was the Senior breakfast Tues- day at 7:45 a.m. at the H. H. Golden home. Mrs. Alvah Gee assisted Mrs. Golden in preparing and serving the breakfast. Besides the members of the senior class, guests included the high sclio 1 faculty. Mrs. Earl Marshall and Miss Emma Carlson. The tables were beautifully decorat- ed with garden flowers and blue ta- pers. A three course breakfast was served. Mr. Carlson was presentfd with a gift by the senior class of which he has been sponsor for their four years in high school. MARGARET LEFT OUT In the Senior Class History the name of Margaret Burkhardt was omitted from those who were listed as members of the class when they were Freshmen. This was an error of the typist, but entirely uninten- tional. Margaret has been with the class all four years. Mr, Marshall, said Vivian at the church festival, won't you buy a bouquet, to present to the lady you love? That wouldu't be rightg I'm a mar- ried man, Mr. Marshall replied. John tainted at the club the other night. We thought he was going to die. Well, did he kick the bucket? No, he only turned a little pale. enior' Record SENIORS RECEIVE THEIR DIIPLOMAS Commencement Held Last Night At Palmer Opera House The seventeen members of the class of 1942, Palmer high school, re- ceived their diplomas last night when the commencement exercises were held at the opera house. The program was very pleasing and im- pressive and the opera house was filled almost to capacity. In their blue caps and gowns the seniors, accompanied by their spon- sor, Mr. Carlson, marched in as the processinnal was played and seated themselves on the stage, which had been decorated with a most beautiful and colorful array of flowers. High school students who appeared on the program acquited themselves in a most creditable manner. The addresses given by Onilee Winchell, valcdictorian of the class, and Beulah Clarke, salutatorian, were exceptionally well prepared and delivered. The Junior girls' trio and the Soph- omore girls' quartet were very well rendered, and spoke well of the music department of the school. Mr. David Grant, head of the Speech Department of Hasting College, de- livered the commencement address. His general theme was Democracy, and he brought a very clear and in- spii ing interpretation of the subject. Even in modern times when it seems necessary that our lives need regulating by the government to a certain extent, in order to compete with the foes of Democracy, he showed how this can be done in a democratic way, and through our consent and direction. Principal E. B. Marhall presented the awards of honor to members of the class, which included the fol- lowing: Scholarships to the Grand Island Business College, value S250 each, to Onilee Winchell and Beulah Clarke. Scholarship to Hastings Business College or North Platte School of Commerce to Virginia Gee. University of Nebraska Regent's scholarship to John Golden. Scholarship to any of several church colleges of the state to Onilee Winchell. Scholarship to any of the State Teachers Colleges, lChadron, P.ru, Kearney, Waynel to Beulah Clarke. Palmer High School 'Citizenship Awards, to the boy and girl consider- PALM ERITE ed by the faculty as ranking highest' in citizenship, to Robert Taylor and Onilee Winchell. Diplomas were presented to eleven eighth grade graduates by Superin- tendent Martin E. Carlson, Mr. W. E. James presented the high school diplomas to the seniors.

America, the pious land, With whom 'God walks hand in hand Where our forefathers fought, Now peace is sought. America, this great Democracy Shall forever be, It will go on forever, Ceasing never! -Louis Rt Le1'oy. Friendly Sunshine You come up a ball of fire And you go to rest the same A daily friend you never tire But day by day you play your game. You give warmth to a cold earth You give light to a dark old world Without you there is no mirth In laughter no lips are curled. No bud becomes a flower No smile becomes a laugh But if you're here an hour The task becomes just half. A kind friend and a true one You bring joy to many a heart Cheerfully your daily work is done And loft behind when'er you part. Wending your way westward You slowly vanish from sight You, who from the eastward Chased away the night. When you sink in your crimson bed Far across the horizon In prayer you bow your head Before you journey on. --Lorene Whited and Onilee Winchell VERY MUCH TOO MUCH Too many highways, too many cars, Too many people, behind the bars, Too much poverty, tco much wealth, Too many people, in ill-health. Too much politics, too much booze, Too many hats and high heeled shoes, T00 ITIHHY Spending their dough on gas Too much talk of Europe's sass. Too many living beyond their means, Too many buying canned corn SL 'beans Too many buying goods on time, Too many people without a dime. Too much ball, too much play, Too many politicians not earning their pay. Too many taxes, too much spent Too many folks spend every cent. Teo many teachers, too much school, Too much breach of the Golden Rule. Too many poets, too much prose, But NEVER enough silk for women's hose. -John Golden -Christian Burkhardt AN ESSAY ON ILLNESS There comes a tilne in every per- son's life when they must experience a very serious illness or when their very rlear loved ones fall close to the clutches of death. Some are too imntature to realize the seriousness of this terrible thing known as dis- ease which eventually takes its claim to every human being. To the happy carefree and careless type of person, illness strikes hard the first time, when one of their parents or loved ones fall seriously ill, they awaken with a start. They begin to realize for the first time in their overcrowded life the real value of their friends and associates. Per- haps ycu think that you realize and fully appreciate the loved one close to you, but it can never fully be ex- perienced until you realize that one of them is about to be taken from your midst. When the customary surroundings which you are accustomed to are sud- denly taken away, you 'begin to real- ize just how important a position they held in your life, although you may not have even taken time to recognize them previous to this. The surroundings which you place yourself in play an important role in your life, especially if they are pleas- ant. The privileges which you now 'PAI:- nrr: enjoy may never even be thought of, but taken for granted. When even some of the smallest ones are takey from you, their importance suddenly looms before you. Only a person who has had some of the privileges of life suddenly and perhaps unexpected- ly snatched from him, is the person who thinks back on the days when he took these privileges as a part of his every day life. A good example would he a person who suddenly found that he was go- ing to loose his eye sight. Not until he had been plnng'd into his own private and dark worl'l. where the sun never rose, did he ap- preciate the glorious sunrise and svn- set, the clear blue sky, and the wood- ed hills. Still another example. per- haps less drastic, is the person wlro accidently looses the use of his legs in an auto occident or because of the disease, infantile paralysis. He can still move around by use of a w eel chair, but he leaalizes the privileges of walking which he had so unthink- ingly taken as his heredity. Every person must at sometime come to a stand still by some means whether it be illness or accident, ard realize the great expanse of pfivil- eges which he so freely uses without thought of value. This understanding is a course in the school of hard knocks which every preson must pass through. If you receive your education early, ycu are lucky and may consider yourself well versed in the disasters of life. -Robert Taylor Ever Heard 'Em? Said the boots to the cowboy: You ride, I'll go on foot. The big rose to the little one. Hi, bud. One light to another: Let's go out together. One ear to another: Funny we haven't met. We live on the same block. The hat to the hat-rack: You stay here, I'll go on a head. One hand said to the other hand when they met at twelve: Ah! This moment together. enior Poetsga THE LOVE OF A SHEPHERD His love aboundeth in mercy and grace, Which shines in radiance from his face, This is the Shepherd who guards His sheep While they are peacefully at sleep. Oh, who is this Shepherd so kind and true, Whose love and mercy doeth shew In His tender guarding o'er the lost ones so dear Who have wandered away and are lost in fear. Will the Shepherd bring them back to the fold, Or will He let them go straying on in the cold. Never again to know the care Of a. Master so true and rare. No, he will go in the coldest night to find his sheep And bring them back to a warm place to sleep, For He loves His sheep in a tender Wav, And I-le will watch o'er them, night and day. Back to their Master When His call they hear, Away from the rough and rugged rock And back to the sheltered flock. So they will not Wander again so far, For of danger they are aware. Yes, in the flock they will stay, And never again wander so far away. -Vivian Newlon FLOWERS With the first warm days of summer The flowers begin to rise, From their warm home in deep slumber Toward the blue and cloudless skies. Then as summer marches forward The flowers grow large and strong. Caused by the rain and sun they horded. Thus the flowers continue on. Through the remainder of the summer Some grow large, and others die. Some are killed by every comer, Others picked by passers by. Through all its long and tireless days, These flowers fought with strength and might, As their protection from life's ways Through every day, every night. As a flower has no protection It can only strive and do its best. To reach the height of its perfection. And let nature do the rest. Then in dying days of summer, The seeds and petals fall To their homes, and then to slumber Waiting for another summer's call. -Carl 85 Clyde THE LOST LOVER Remember the good old times we had together, When we went driving on Saturday night! At first I thought you an awful cad, And all that we did was fight. I can faintly remember the last words you said As we parted, lingering near the doorg Something was whirling so fast in my head Then you were gone, I saw you no more. I thought you were quite an attraction Although I never told you. But I'm sure you could tell by my reaction That I wasn't feeling blue. I never realized you were leaving for good, It seemed like merely a temporary goodbye For I just didn't see how you could Even though you might try. I thought you wanted to play a game And I was willing to act my part. Me? Why I yas just another dame, But somehow you broke my heart. With your gay, laughing eyes, And attractive, yet heart-stealing smile, I listened to your heart-throbbing lies, Knowing it would end in a little while. ' Darling I can't believe you're dead, I can't believe that you're gone. Although that's what they said, I'm sure they must be wrong. Oh please tell me they've made a mistake That you're alive and still my own For in my heart there's an awful ache For somehow-I feel sad and alone. -Beulah Clarke PALM RITE T0 BETTY GRAY Come into my arms, my Betty dear, For tis' like heaven to have you near The birds in the trees are filled with joyous song, But when you're away, the whole world is wrong. The sky grows dark, and the day is dreary, My joy is gone and my heart is weary. To me your dark eyes seem like glowing coals Which have seared the depths of many souls. Your shining hair is like the raven's crest, Which has put many a knight to his bold test, To me your voice is like a cool refreshing stream And it has sought its way into my every dream. Your ruby lips haunt me night and day: They follow me from London to Cathay. I IOVG YOUI' gay and light-hearted laughter, I hear it now and forever after. Your carefree and happy manner EXIJounds You like a medieval castle's banner, Your light caress is like the breath of spring And has won the heart of many a noble king. To finish this poem in greatest detail, l'll give you the name of this loving male His name to you is Milton Dale Suck, And I'm sure you can find it in any good telephone book -Robert Taylor Milton Suck And now that this poem has been ended A fact I will relate.

THE BLUE AND THE GRAY The sky, in times of storm, is dark And dull, 'tis wrought of leadg A chilling wind howls fiercely, The heavens rage, -far overhead. The earth is very dark and gloomy, 'Tis heeding God's commandg Waves roll up and beat the shore, Lightning flashes o'er His land! The sky repents! 'Tis azure blue, Fleecy clouds float here and thereg The sun throws off its golden light, Peace and contentment are every- where. Night has fallen. The heavens sparkle With diamonds- heirlooms precious and oldg The stars twinkle brightly in such a night. The moon streams down in beams of gold. The heart, in time of storm, is dark, For love there is not roomg It's very tense and very sharpg It sheds but darkness and gloom. The heart, likewise, in time of calm Repents, and sheds its love, Reflecting the hand of the Great Creator, It beams an image of God above, --Evelyn Newman NOVEMBER 20, 1941 In typing the scores for last week were as follows: Laura Christensen, 25 words per minute, Roy Walling 22 words per minute, Clarence Hodge, 21 words per minute.

But they were here for you, in- sisted the hotel proprietor, and you offer to pay me only one-half of my bill? Yes, retorted Farmer Corntossle shrewdly, and you kissed my wife while We were here. I did nothing of the kind, was the hot retort of the hotel man. Well, the farmer blandly replied. lt was here for you.

OCTOPER 2, 1941 PAT -MER WINS FIRST FOOTBALL GAME 19- 0 But Rising City Gained More Yardage and First Downs At Rising City last Friday night. Palmer beat Risng City by a score of 19 to 0. Rising City had a much stronger team than the score would indicate, and they gained more yards and first downs than did Palmer whose three touchdowns were all made by runs of over fifty yards. The first touchdown was made by Walling. He reversed his field and after shaking off two or three tack- lers scampered sixty-five yards to score. In the second quarter George Davis started on an end run and going wide went fifty-five yards down the side- lines to score the second touchdown. Our last tally was made on a beauti- ful run hack of punt by Bob Taylor, who caught the ball on his own zero yard line and following good inter- ference went the length of the field. We also scored one point after touch- down. The bovs showed very nice block- ing and tackling, and with a little experience they will make a good team to back. OCTOBER 9, 1941 ST. ED.

Palmer kicked off to Wolbach and on a second play, Peterson of Wol- bach ran the ball to about Palmer's fifteen yard line. On the next play Robert Taylor, Palmer quarterback, intercepted a pass and ran the ball back past midfield. A few plays later a pass from Whited to Winchell scored a touchdown. The extra point failed. In the second quarter the teams reversed directions and Wolbach soon pushed over for a touchdown and ran the extra point. Palmer then came back and scored twice, once on an end run by Whited who went twenty five yards to scoreg and once on a pass from Davis to Burton after Wal- ling put the ball in scoring position. A pass from Whited to Burton chalk- ed up another point and the halt ended with Palmer leading 19 to 7. In the second half Wolbach turned on the steam and scored two touch- downs and an extra point, that made the scores 20 - 19 in their favor. Several times in the last quarter the Palmer team marched within 15 yds of the goal attack took the ball. these with about two that Wolbach was downed behind points making the Palmer on the long ended with Wolbach in a vain attempt to ocrossn za, 1941 Palmer Wallops In a very lonsided g Dhan last Friday, the handed Doniphan a real ing on the top side of a 55-12 Doniphan scored in each of first two periods on runs by fullback, Keller, but failed to either kick afterwards.

Wins Two Fast Games Last Week Last Friday night finished the reg- ular basketball season for Palmer high school, except tournament play, and the Tigers finished the season in a blaze of glory. Playing their best ball of the sea- son, Palmer defeated Alda here Tues- day night last week by a score of 33 to 20. Alda is one of the strong teams in this part of the state. Friday night at Dannebrog the Tigers eked out a 24 to 21 victory in a hard fought battle. The tension during the last quarter was kept at white heat, while first one team and then the other slipped ahead by one or two points, as the minutes clicked off toward the final gun. Scott was high point man both nights with 11 points each game. Palmer's second team lost to Alda 14 to 8, but they won easily at Danne- brog 42 to 10. Dannebrog's reserve players were plenty good for their size, but they were too small for Pa1mer's huskies.

Palmer scored 21 points. The game was fairly even until the last quarter. The superior height of the Elm Creek 'boys gave them a distinct advantage, and in the last quarter, with Scott of Palmer out of the game on fouls, they built up a substantial lead. , f' Q ll: .-,.,, xl PAL RIT!

PAL RITE NOVEMBER 6.1941 HIGH SCHOOL PLAY IS. WELL PRESENTED Netted Nice Amount For H. S. Athletic Fund The first high. school play of the year was presented in the high school auditorium Thursday and Saturday nights of last week to good sized au- diences, which were well pleased with the entertainment. The play, The Black Derby was a murder mystery, with the tragedy well concealed from the audience, but with plenty of mystery, spooky thrills and humor in evidence. Only in the last moments of the play did the identity of the murderer, the Cobra , become revealed. In the meantime there were plenty of goings-on in the old house re- ceutly occupied by Ted and Jane Bronson Uohn Anderson.j Clyde Burton, masquerading as Tom Randall, a college boy, finally proved to be the villian, with Mrs. Benlow, the housekeeper tBarbara Powerj as his accomplice. Beulah Clarke as Betty Kay, pos- ing as a society girl, and Warren Rice as Mickey tnobody speciall, were the two secret agents who trap- ped the cobra. Of course this was accomplished only with the help of the detective Wimple tRobert Tay- lorj who not only lost his black derby and coat in the process, but was actually captured, bound and deposited unconscious in the corner of a dark closet by the mysterious cobra. Intimately connected with the plot also were Cora Kipper, the maid tvirginia Geel and John, the chauf- feur and caretaker fMilton Suck,j The entire cast put on a. very cre- ditable performance, Between acts were musical num- bers including vocal duets by Mar- jorie Scott and Dorothy Curren, with Lorena Fishel accompanistg quartet by Dorothy Weber, Maxine Anderson, Gwendolyn Rice and Shirley Harris, with , Marjorie Rudolf accompanist, duets by Sue Golden and Lorene Herring. Golden and Maxine ther' Activities The total receipts amounted to about 533.00 from the play of which nearly S30 is net to go into the ath- letic fund.

The great oak stands upon the hill, Its limbs so brown and bare- When once it held so proudly. Leaves rustling everywhere.

NOVEMBER 13,1941 Armistice Program G'ven At School House Tuesday A very nice Armistice program was given at the high school audi- torium Tuesday morning at 11 o'clock to which the public was invited. It was conducted by the American Leg- ion in co-operation with the school. Mr. Paul E. Kenny gave a very good address. The new high school band furnished music. GETTING READY FOR THE JUNIOR PLAY WHICH WAS GIVEN BEFORE LARGE AND APPRECIATIVE AUDIENCES THURS. G. SAT., DECEMBER 11-13. The Juniors have selected as their class play, a three-act comedy, called Don't Darken My Door . They plan to give it early in December. The cast is as follows: Roger Kent, a bachelor- . . . .Bill Greenway Rosemary Kent, his romantic niece- ....Gwen Rice Tom Garrick, her persistent suitor- ....Everett Scott Poppy Foster, maid of all work- ....June Forbes Alec Stebbins, PoDpy's devoted swaln ....Roy Walling Jane Perkins, a writer of romances- .. . .Elma Burton Louisa Featherstone- Susie Featherstone, maiden ladies- ..Evelyn Newman, Maxine Anderson DON'T DARKEN MY DOOR The Juniors are still working on their play, Don't Darken My Door and will give it Thursday and Satur- day ot this week. The plot is as fol- lows: When a girl reads too many ro- mances, what chance has a mere man to win her? Rosemary tGwen Ricel wanted a lover like the ones in Hearts Aflame and she had no time for Tom 1Everett Scottj. Her admiring maid, Poppy, tJune Forbesl felt the same way, in fact she read the same romances, and poor Alec, iRoy Wallingl was in despair over Poppy's sudden coldness. Then the author Ollma Burtonj of the roman- tic books appears. She is a maiden lady with a kind heart. She sets PAL ERITE about repairing the damage her books have done Under her direction Tom and Alec are soon spouting ro- mantic speaches and making a hit with the girls. There are strikingly funny scenes as Tom is coached in love-making. It is still funnier when he makes the speeches he's been practicing. Two fluttery spinsters lMaXine Andersonl and tEvelyn Newmanj from the neighborhood keep a thrilled eye on the romantic go- ings-on, and even Rosemary's bach- elor uncle fBill Greenwayl begins to notice the good qualities of the author he is entertaining. We guarantee you it will be a full evening of entertainment with lots of laughs. The admission will be 10c. 15c 25c plus tax. -Elma Burton DECEMBER 11,1941 UPPER GRADE PROGRAM The fifth, sixth, seventh and eightb grades will present the operetta, The Christmas Bazaar' on December 17 at eight o'clock.

THE WIND The wind blows and blows and blows It blows the rain and blows the snow The wind blows over land or seag Over the hillsg And through the trees. It blows the kitesg And turns the mills, Every morning over the hills. And at the setting of the sung It thinks it is having fung When it blows the chicken's feathers, And makes the turkeys run. -Burdette Newlon FEBRUARY 5, 1942 Movies To Be Shown In High School Assembly Friday afternoon four short movies will be shown in the assembly of the school house. These are the first of several movies the school hopes to sponsor with the help of the students. This program will start at 2 p.m. and will take almost two hours. There will be two silent and two sound movies shown. The sound films are String Choir and Unlocking Canada's Treasure Trove. String Choir shows the important functions of the stringed instruments in orchestral music. It ther Activities 'L LE also shows the fingering technique of various string instruments. Unlock- ing Canada's Treasure Trove depicts the phases of the gold industry from prospecting to extracting the gold. Circulation and The Romance of Rubber are the two silent films. Circulation shows the cycle of pul- monary circulation and compares the human heart with that of a frog. The Romance of Rubber shows the production of crude rubber on the plantations of the United States Rub- ber Company in Sumatra and Malays. Those who are interested are wel- come to attend. -Warren FEBRUARY 19, 1942 LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD It was a rosy day, and the people were singing, Rose O'Day. Little Red Riding Hood left the happy group and started out for her Grandmoth- er's house. She was happily singing My Momma Done Told Me when she met the Fox. He looked at her and said, Hi Neighbor. She spoke, and hurried on, and he followed her. Soon they met a tramp, and they all three tramped along singing, Tramp, Tramp, Tramp, the Boys are March- ing. The Fox had thought up a vicious scheme. He said, You Take the High Road and I'll Take the Low Road. And so they parted. The fox hurried to her Grandma's where he knocked at the door. Grandma came out and said: Who's That Knocking at the Door? He quickly told her it was her grand child. But she was sus- picious, and said: Be Honest With Me Dear, Whatever You Do. Then he ripped open the door, grab- bed her, and as she was vanishing she said in a pitiful voice, Goodbye Dear, I'l1 Be Back In a Year . He hops into her bed just as Little Red Riding Hood arrives and knocks. She enters and stares at the chang- ed condition of her grandma. My what big eyes you have, and how sharp your teeth look she remarks. Oh, that's for the 'Chattanooga Choo Choo, the fox replies, Then he jumps out of bed and grabs for her, but she yells for the woodchoppers. If the fox hadn't stopped to say Ma, I Miss Your Apple Pie he would have swallowed her, but as it was help arrived. The woodchopper cut him open saying, This Is No Laughing Matter. Grandma stuck her head out and looked up at the woodchap- per and said, You Are My Sunshine, My Only Sunshine. And then to their aid came the Charge of the Light Brigade. When they left, the fox looked a- round and said, Oh Look at Me Now When we heard this on the radio we tried to fcny it but could not re- member all of it so said- There'll be Some Changes Made. -Assistant Editor.

This is the time for running debts, As you must surely know, This secret, then, impart to me: How much does Cleveland, O.'! In ages, too, you must be learned, More so than many men, So, tell me in a whisper, please, When was Miss Nashville, Tenn.? It takes great heat the gold to melt, And iron takes mush moreg Then is it true, that way out West, The rain melts Portland, Ore. Some voices are so strong and full, And some so still and small, That I have wondered often times How loud could Denver, Col.? The Owl scratched his feathered pate: I'm sorry, little mang Ask some one else, I cannot tell. Perhaps Topeka, Kan. What goes 999 klunk, 999 klunk, i 999 klunk'?

Musical Program Pleases Large Crowd Every seat was filled at the high school auditorium last Friday night when the high school presented a musical program. The girls' glee club presented the first part of the program, The high school orchestra came next, followed by the high school band. Each of these grou-ps gave a very pleasing performance. After hearing the band. several people have remarked that it would be a fine thing if this high school band could he prevailed upon to give open air concerts in Palmer during the summer. This would be a great boost for Palmer and commun- ity Perhaps the most entertaining part of the evening's program was the op- eretta, The Dizzy Baton. It hap- pened that two prominent members of the cast, Marjorie Rudolf and Ev- erett Scott, were in the hospital re- covering from appendicitis operations last week, and substitutes had to take their places. which thev did in a very satisfactory way. Vivian New- lon substituted for Marjorie at the pi- ano, and Donna Itzen filled in as the professor who wielded the dizzy ba- ton. The ofperetta was extremely hum- orous, and pleasing from a musical standpoint. Director Carlson and the students are to be highly complimented for the success of the program. A free will offering was taken to help defray the expense of music. Boners Milton was a blind poet who wrote Paradise. When his wife died, he wrote Paradise Regained.

Preceding the operetta, the high school band -played several selections, again proving their ability to assist proficiently when called upon. First Cannibal: Ain I late for din- ner?
