MCGUNIGLE DEDICATION To you, Miss McGunigle, the Class of 1941, Plymouth Teachers College, dedicates this CONNINC TOWER. Both as a teacher and as a personality you have exemplified high idealism and deep appreciation of beauty to influence us, through all the years ahead, toward richer living. Memories of Plymouth will include always, most pleasant thoughts of you. 4 Words ani Music Lillian Kelis EU lx fi lil ll.: i t C EEZ L Ii Q it E fr F 'FF if p E 3 Milli, Oh, trust to us Alma Mater, We never can repay thee To uphold thy standards of truth, For the light which has led us along And all of thy cherished traditions The path to our life's great successes In forward guidance of youth. Except by service and song. The joys and sorrows We've shared here So We lift our hearts and voices Will live within us, too. For all the World to share To Plymouth Teachers College, Our love, our faith and devotion We'1l each and all be true. To our Alma Mater fair. 5 The Presiclenl:'s Message The Class of 1941 goes forth, I hope, in dedication to abundant service of the American Way of life. This means a passion to preserve and to better the truly democratic life. Efficient teaching is a combined result of example, emotion, and learning. Teachers must exemplify the best in democratic living, must inspire in youth a compelling love for American freedom and opportunity, and must understand and transmit the sound bases of support of our philoso- phy of government. Our patriotic enthusiasm must stand securely upon rational and unshakable foundations that give the spirit substance. Our times demand a rebirth of spirit and purpose and sacrifice as necessary now as in 1776 and 1917. The tasks before us may prove the greatest in our history because more complex and more subjective relatively than heretofore. America shall live to better. days with the determination of your generation wisely dedicated to a new birth of freedom in America and in all the earth. ERNEST L.

SPEARE To the Graduates of the Elementary Curriculum Let this be a lesson to you! Since you have learned to profit by experience, you can meet the challenge which faces you as you go out from Plymouth Teachers College in this time of crisis for America. You have been trained in democratic processes in the activities of teaching and manage- ment. Your schoolrooms will be places of happy, wholesome living, of co-operation and shared responsibility. You will emphasize effective work and worthy accomplishment through motivation that takes the entire personalities of children into captivity. You will guide to ever wider outlooks and lure to higher appreciations. You will fan to flame the sparks of creative fire in the lovely, outreaching spirits of childhood. The democratic philosophy of life and education is the atmosphere of your daily living. To you each child is a unique personality of eternal significance. To the growth and unfolding of personal power and character you- will devote your lives as teachers. In children you have seen the divine glory. You have loved them, and you will continue in their happy companion- ship asvthe years go by. You will always be loyal, for in them you will envision the future. They will inspire you in a multitude of ways. You will gain new insights, and become better teachers through growth in enticement and in entrancing leadership. Since you have learned to face reality and to apply scientific insight in solving your problems, your failures and disappointments will prove but starting points for successes. I wish for you a useful future in which you will serve well with zeal, loyalty, and good humor. Let your experience be your teacher. Q , GUY E. SPEARE LOUISE ELLEN BACHELDER Louisa Goffstown, N. H.

'EQQ' ff? B M. REGINA BURTON To the Graduates ol the Commerce Curriculum For years Americans have depended upon education as a means of perpetuating their demo- cratic system of government. No other country has ever given free education to such a great proportion of its people for so long a period. The State of New Hampshire has selected you as the instruments whereby its share in this work may be carried on. It is your duty to prove that the faith the public has placed in you is not without foundation. As commercial teachers your participation in the American educational scheme falls in two phases: first, the vocational education of young people so that they may assume their place in the business worldg and second, the development of an economic consciousness in those whom you will instruct in order that they may better realize the advantages of a democratic form of government. By doing this task and doing it well, you will have fulfilled your obligation toward mak- ing this nation secure. M. REGINA BURTON 23 ELIZABETH DOE Libby Newmarket, N. H.

' . ,ff 26 5 s ' -49 as ' uv' - GENEVA M. SMITH To the Graduates of the Secondary Curriculum These are difficult days in which to know With certainty what is happening in our muddled World. It is even more difficult, in the midst of this confusion, to try to analyze and to inter- pret the forces behind the events. Yet, if our way of living is to survive We must keep on solv- ing the every-day problems and at the same time try to understand these changes, relationships, and invariants which are influencing the future. We, as agents of democracy, are consequently confronted with two problems. The Hrst deals with our vocational responsibilities, and the second with our obligation to think in an orderly manner about those trends which go beyond any one profession. This utilitarian age has caused us to become a nation of specialists. Those attributes which make us highly skilled members of one profession may build Walls which separate us from other groups and prevent us from understanding their problems. The present period demands that we must go beyond these boundaries and try to understand those social, economic, and moral forces which underlie what We consider a superior Way of living. Professional skill alone may be the only requirement of teachers in a totalitarian state, but skill with insight, significance, and faith are required for the preservation and improve- ment of the fundamental and lasting ideals of democracy.

PLYMOUTH TRAINING SCHOOL 36 Plymouth Training School The Plymouth Training School is a phrase in which is embodied a world of anticipation, expectation, and opportunity. For three full years anticipation for the work into which we are to launch ourselves has been accumulating more and more as we have advanced through the regular courses preparatory to that adventure-practice teaching. Expectation has soared hand in hand with anticipation, playing havoc with the bewildered minds of the embryonic pedagogues slowly but surely forging ahead. The natural apprehension and dread which invariably grapple and clutch the entire being of the beginning cadet, beyond all doubt, prove to be a nonentity. The actual experience in the training school proves to be a direct antithesis to that imaginary ordeal previously pictured within the imagery of the doubtful one. Practice teaching in the Model School launches us into a new adventure, for there we actually teach, and at the same time we receive instruction, there we Hnd impressionable per- sonalities, the molding of which depends upon us, and in turn, we discover stronger personali- ties which shape our own in correct patterns of courage, patience, and enthusiasm. The Plymouth Training School becomes an integral part of every student of the Elementary Curriculum, .for there it is that we acquire the invaluable skills and principles inherent in the teaching process, in the guiding and shaping of character, and in the enriching and ennobling of the child mind. LILLIAN KELLY Dalton It is almost impossible to describe our feelings as, for the first time, we went down the road from Dalton Dormitory to the small schoolhouse where we were to spend our eighteen weeks of training. What shall we do first? What shall we say? were questions which kept running through our minds. We found the pupils friendly and capable, possessing a spirit of co-operation lacking in many larger high schools. i There is never a dull moment at Dalton High School. Like average high school pupils, they disrupted many a class with their original and amusing escapades. The Christmas party was a big success, and the Senior Play, given in January, was one of the highlights of the school year. Dancing classes were enjoyed by all who participated. But training was not all work. We enjoyed many social evenings after supper eating popcorn and apples. Trips to Lancaster and Littleton were frequent, and we spent many even- ings at socials in the Grange Hall. A favorite form of recreation to be found in Dalton is walking and enjoying the scenery. Although training at Dalton had its problems and was not all play, we who have trained there would not exchange places with anyone. You just couldn,t help liking the pupils, and Miss Taylor, our critic, was ever willing to help, no matter what our problems Were. HILDA GLANNON 37 PLYMOUTH TRAINING SCHOOL 38 Orford High School One of the experiences about which one feels uncertain and anxious is that of training. We were asked to arrive at Orford on Labor Day so that we would be ready to attend a con- ference in Hanover the following day. Orford is a beautiful town, especially in the early part of September when the leaves are a mass of color. One of our favorite pastimes was walking along the country roads and ex- ploring the little town. The people were friendly and took an interest in school affairs. Students at Orford are typical high school students. They took an active part in all school affairs and co-operated willingly with us. Prom time to time, school socials were given. At these, both pupils and teachers enjoyed the fun of the evening. Then when the basketball season started, there were trips out-of-town that were enjoyed by all. Both teachers and pupils looked forward to these affairs. Not only at school did we Hnd enjoyment, but down at the house there was always some- thing doing. The Senior play is something that is looked forward to by practically everyone. This year the play was a great success as usual. Much hard work was put into it by the students, Miss Twitchell, and Miss Demers, and everyone was pleased with the results. After eighteen weeks of training in Orford under the wise, kind guidance of Miss Twitchell, one remembers with satisfaction bombastic but inspiring students, hard work mixed with pleasure, and classes that challenged, encouraged, and spurred us on. To those who are to go out next year, we say this: Let your training be an experience to look forward to eagerly, an adventure in which a deeper understanding and tolerance of human nature, if nothing else, will be your reward. Go out training and like it as we did! V LILLIAN DEMERS FRANCES LEFABVRE Hancock High School Beside the placid Norway, 'Neath the shelter of the hills There stands a red brick schoolhouse, Where memory lingers still - These words quoted from the school song show a true picture of Hancock High. Some events of life are forgotten readily but this memory will linger long. On a bright Tuesday morning, the cadet teachers arrived. Those first few days were bewildering. Under the helpful and understanding guidance of Miss Manchester, we were soon adjusted to our new task. The end of each day found us tired and happy, but eager to start the next day work- ing with the wide-awake pupils who were always ready to learn. Don't think they were model,' pupils all of the time. They were typical American high school pupils who often upset well organized plans and offered many amusing situations. The spirit of loyalty and co-operation reigned among the pupils of Hancock. When the 3:30 bell rang, were they tired? No! They were off to basketball practice, play rehears- als, skating parties, long hikes on brisk fall days, or some other similar activity. Hancock has two basketball teams of which the school is justly proud. On the day of a game, there is always a general stir among the pupils. If they lose, their spirits are not dampened. Good sportsmanship prevails. Training in Hancock was a wonderful and happy experience. Those who will have the opportunity to go there are indeed fortunate. i r T GRACE HOLT 39 Hampstead High School It was a sunny September day when we arrived in Hampstead. Later around the dinner table we became acquainted with Miss Merriman and the Keene cadets. We were to spend many an hour at this homey table, chatting and talking over the problems of the day. In the afternoon we had our first glimpse of the high school in which we were to teach. At first sight of the empty seats we felt at home-but when we pictured those same seats Hlled with occupants with strange faces, it seemed as though our bodies would not hold together. The sun was up bright and early the next morning, and so were we, only we didn't feel so bright. Once in the main room, filled with friendly faces, our fears subsided. No one could fear the smiles and good-natured nods that we were to learn were characteristic of the Hamp- stead High pupils. Under the guidance of Miss Merriman we soon learned to make out unit and lesson plans and actually enjoyed doing so. We always looked forward to the visits made by Mr. Skelton, and how disappointed we once were when he failed to appear. I shall never forget how we almost dropped When told that Mr. Leavitt had at last arrived. Once his genial smile was seen, those chills of fear disappeared and we enjoyed, as well as profited from, his visit. Many people believe that a small high school has few advantages or opportunities. We wish to disagree with them. Out of this small group of boys and girls came a splendid, awe- inspiring production of The Cavalcade of America . The success of this production showed exactly what co-operation, work, and talent will do to make a great thing. I am sure that no larger school could have been more sincere and inspiring than was the Hampstead High School when it performed America marching onward through two and a half centuries . We wish the graduates of nineteen hundred forty-one and all future Hampstead High School graduates, happiness and success in whatever work they may undertake. MILDRED ALBEC I. Objectives: 1.

The privilege of self- government carries with it certain rights inalienable within the jurisdiction of the state. On first thought, we may misunderstand the real meaning of self-government, which means government of one's self. But government means direction, control, and restraint, therefore the privilege of self-govern- ment gives us the right to make our own regulations and restraints. Only in so far as we are capable of con- trolling and directing our own activities, are we free to do so. If we show ourselves not capable, then we have to be directed by some rule other than that of our own making. There are two requisites for making progress in any undertaking-understanding and co-operation. All citizens of any self-governing state, therefore, must act jointly with one another in order to accomplish the desired end of governing themselves. In order for all citizens to work together, there must be a common understanding among them. They must come to an agreement concerning the same laws and practices. Our Constitution and Laws of Plymouth Teachers College State were written for us as citizens of this state. It is for us, therefore, to make it a live constitution and to interpret it to meet our needs, as it has been interpreted to meet the needs of the student bodies that have preceded ours, just as the Constitution of the United States is interpreted to meet the changing needs of our nation. If we are to make the most of our privileges of self-government, each one of us must put his best foot forward and accept as his responsibility the proper functioning of our state. When we see something we think is Wrong or something we think should be changed, we should not say, But that isnit my responsibility. Rather should we ask ourselves, Is it my responsibility? I wish to express my sincere appreciation for the honor you have bestowed upon me in electing me governor of our state. I sincerely hope that through the co-operation of all connected with our state, we may have a better understanding and a government functioning at its best. ERMA TELFER 46 Jia 2 5 Our Governor PRESIDENT SILVER, MEMBERS OF THE FACULTY, FRIENDS, AND FELLOW CITIZENS: A psychology professor once stirred the mental actions of his class by asking the question: Who are you? One girl ventured to say, Why, I'm Mary Brown. He said nothing and passed on to each pupil in the class. Evidently the name was not the answer. His answer was, You are the sum total of your experiences. Every contact with events in life leaves a mark on us, profitable or otherwise. Unhappy experiences may develop antagonistic lines of thought, we might call them defense mechanisms. Congenial, or pleasant happenings, tend to develop social attitudes and attributes benehcial to us and to those around us. As citizens of this state, we came from our various communities the sum total of our experiences . New and varied experiences are being encountered here, and they should be playing a favorable part in our growth as we extend our education, building all the time for the profession we have chosen. The future is built upon the experiences of the past, carefully siftedg the best being selected as bases for continued progress. As citizens of Plymouth Teachers College State we have the opportunity of living under a democratic constitution set up for our welfare. However, our constitution and self government-although perhaps ideally correct-are not entirely successful. To be ideally correct and successful they must be genuinely supported by each member of the state. No set of platitudes devised by man for social governing can be perfect because it must deal with human beings. For a constitution to function, it must be adaptable to changing conditions. To secure the well- being of all requires the utmost of a sense of responsibility and of co-operation on the part of each member of a society, guided by the principles of a constitution wisely interpreted and adapted as conditions change. The basic laws should be social, wide in scope, upholding the good of every citizen. When the funda- mental concepts of a state become a maze of unwieldy rules governing inhnitesimal actions, the result is general disrespect. You are the sum total of your experiences. Those experiences which have built up a feeling of antagonism in general among right-minded citizens have no place in a progressive society. Those experiences which have built up desirable personal and social attributes, with the necessary co-operation, will make for that type of democratic state we most desire at Plymouth Teachers College. As our govern- ment continues to function, let us keep in mind the fact that we are not just Mary, john, or Dick, but that we are the sum total of our experiences , and that- the future is built on the experiences'of-thepast. Fellow Citizens: I wish to thank you for the honor you have bestowed upon me. In the keeping of this trust I shall give my sincere efforts with the confidence that I have the co-operation of every citizen. VESTA L.

Pa rents' Day Over one hundred parents were in attendance at our first Parents' Day on October 12, some coming many miles to participate in this occasion. The purpose of the day was to give the parents an opportunity to view a cross-section of our college life. The morning was to be given over to the observation of dormitory life in general, while the events of the afternoon were to present phases of our extra curricular activities. Upon arriving on the campus, our guests were greeted by music played by the college band from the upper porch of Mary Lyon Hall Dormitory. They were asked first to sign the register in the lobby, after which they were given an opportunity to visit their sons or daugh- ters in their rooms, and to be escorted by them about the campus and college buildings. At noon the parents ate with the students in the college dining-room. An enthusiastic game of softball was played on the athletic field in the afternoon, the contest being between the fathers and students. The parents loyally supported their team and applauded loudly, but the victory still went to the students. We hope there were not too many lame limbs the next day! Following this, an entertainment was held in Livermore Hall at which time each parent was presented with a copy of our Weekly paper, The Prospect , which contained informa- tion concerning our numerous extra curricular activities. The Senior Glee Club and Men's Glee Club opened the program with Dear Land of Home by Jean Sibelius which was followed by three numbers by the Senior Glee Club: The Sleigh by Korentz-Baldwin, In My Garden by Firestone-Riegger, and The Suabian Folk Song by Johannes Brahms. The eventful day was brought to a close by a tea in the late afternoon held in the lobby of Mary Lyon Hall. Here in the friendly, informal atmosphere there were chances for the parents to become better acquainted. Here also our guests had an opportunity to meet mem- bers of our faculty. . Thus with the aid and co-operation of parents, faculty, students, and even the weather- man, who provided us with a beautiful day, our nrst Parents' Day proved to be a grand success. Both parents and students enjoyed it, and many could be heard saying, Let's have it again next year! MARION COLBY 61 I 6lTl Prog Pan Athenaeum CHRISTMAS 1940 la A f Q' ,, Q9 W 4? Q N60 bv .

For yesteryear, her love and she Had wandered through the forest bright And watched,-across the glistening sands, Beyond the stately tower and sea,- The sun flame out for silver light. And then one night 'mid slumber deep, She visioned-drifting out to sea-his ship With ether hull and ghostly sails. In vain were voiced her frantic cries, The silver image vanished there Like phantasy before her eyes. And then the graying of the dawn Brought from her waxen lips no cry or moan, She and her lonely sire still gaze Across the ashen sands and sea- Her heart is stone. LILLIAN KELLY Transformation A cover of White lay over all the earth: It lay silvery in the moonlight, As the great cold moon shed its beams On the surface of the waiting world beneath. Time passed, and Windy days held sway, When tall bare trees stood out ' As waning silhouettes against the sky, And winter snows gave way to rivulets in the street Before the warm rains and showers of April, And the sunny hours that came, Trees and plants sent forth their buds, For the world had welcomed Spring.
