THE SUTHERLAND The retiring board of editors has proved itself capable of holding the standards of the Sutherland and HTimely Topics up to those established by other boards. The new board of editors has enthusiastically taken up the task and will endeavor to maintain the high mark set by previous boards. With the aid of the townspeople, whose interest in our paper we appreciate very much, and the support and coopera- tion of the student body, we shall, to the best of our ability. carry on the work of publishing a worthwhile, interesting school paper. Proctor High School extends its heal'tiest wishes for success to the Senior Class, noted for its literati. athletes and -o.. -r- THE SUTHERLAND 3 eeholars. who are about to venture into the Big Game called Life. -Ed.-in-Chief. 0......t SUCCESS IN LIFE Everyone is expected to win success in the world. We have become so accustomed to measure success by a men's msition. that we are in the habit of thinking a man is a success because he lives in a house, has money in the bank. Wears good clothes. and is welI-educated. But in spite'of that he may be a failure. for a man's success does not depend up- on possessions. Of what is success compounded then? Those strong in body and intellect are most likely to succeed. Personal habits must be clean. One must be com- petent, trustworthy. honest. clean, temperate, and industrious. He must also strive for a disposition that is able to look on the bright side of life for that can bring one up a few steps toward success. Of all hindrances to success tof which there are manyi lack of confidence is the outstanding. Therefore one should learn to trust himself. to recognize his own abilities and he should have a determination to succeed. Because there are so many great opportunities for the young men and women of today. it is necessary to know how to succeed. If we remain undaunted on life's rough road and keep confidence in ourselves. we shall winewe shall succeed! eL. Swanson, '31 . H- BEHIND THE SCENES There are great doings in P. H. S. these last few weeks. Class day and commencement plans are going ahead with a rush. The Seniors had their pictures taken by the school photographer to put in the Senior issue of the Sutherland. Most of the girls complained that they hadn't been told he- I! THE SUTHERLAND forehand. The new Sutherland board is rushing hither and yon gathering stray bits of news about Seniors to make the last issue for the school term the snappiest, wittiest, and peppiest paper possible. tL. Gustafson, '31. --Hhh$ The article Why I Think There is too much going on in High School by Sinclair Allen in the last issue of the Sutherland has received much attention in town. A letter hearing on this same article has recently been received from some one on the other side of the state. As it makes two ewcallent suggestions, we think it worth while to pass on the thought of it to you. Editor-in-Chief The Sutherland Proctor. Vermont. I was most surprised to find a student who thinks there is too much going on in his high school. True, there are many failures which are entirely uncalled for. but on the other hand. are not your honor students largely the ones who are prominent in the school's social activities and sports? Why not eliminate the ACTIVITY of LOAFIN G in study- hall, the library and other places? I hope this suggestion will give any who are troubled with more time for the legitimate activities of their school and boost their marks. Yours for a well-balanced diet, tAIiasi BILL BOGERS.

Keep going, Anna-succesa to you! THE SUTHERLAND 5 DAY DREAMING I've often wondered why it is So easy to forget The things that we're supposed to do And havenot come to yet. My mind will wander on at will About a tennis game, 01' on that hike up to the hill Where rabbits are so tame. You see ifs so much fun to muse 011 things I know I shouldn't That when I want my mind to use, To come right back it doesnot. But even so it's great good fun. And what harm does it do? Of course I get my lessons done Eventually. Don't you? sComelia Gale. .32. ME A VISIT TO THE DENTIST A thing I do not relish very much is a visit to the dentist. An appointment is made. after which there are several days of dreary waiting and Wondering- how much it's going to hurt. The day of the ordeal having- come, I go to the dentist's where I sit down for a long- wait as there are several people before me. A woman who is to have some teeth extracted goes into the inner room. Soon there is a scream which recalls to my mind all of the unpleasant things I have heard about other 6 THE SUTHERLA ND people's experiences with having theirs fixed. I remember having read in the news about a man who had his whole jaw yanked out by a tooth-doctor. How could a dentist do such a thing! After several minutes of impatient waiting' on my part, I hear voices in that dread inner room after which the woman comes forth. She masters a brave smile as much as to say. Well. it's over; though I notice that she is some- what pale. A man is the next victim. After a time I hear clinking of instruments. The man with a sour expression on his face comes forth. It is now my turn to go in. The man who is to fill my teeth comes smilingly to the door. He is a tall man of about middle age who has a merry twinkle in his eye. He talks of the affairs around town while he is looking for cavities. The work on my teeth begins with drilling and grating. I wriggle in the chair. Hold still. he says. I won't hurt you a bit. He doesn't convince me, however. as I remember too well the cy-glqmstances of a previous sitting in that adjustable chair 0 15. What a relief when I am through and the dentist says that I may go! As I walk out of the inner room I see other victims waiting for their turns and I mhgl'atulate myself at having- come before this crowd of people and so having passed the ordeal. hRaymond Burgess, ,32. W TH E MONEY ROOM An old stage coach was toiling slowly up the long, steep hill which led to the manor. Hartworth Manor, it was call- ed, and it was the most beautiful structure for miles around. As the coach neared the tap of the bill. a whining voice called up to the driver: Aren't we almost there? We've been traveling for hours, and it's bad for my heaIt . Here we are. madame. And with that the door was flung open. and the old lady with her niece, an exceedingly pretty girl of about nineteen, stepped out. At that moment the door of the manor was opened and Charles, the heir to Hal'tworth Manor. a tall. handsome lad with curly, black hair welcomed them. Uncleis pretty bad. Pm afraid, he said. when they were at last seated in the comfortable. spacious drawing-room. He's in a state of delirium, and about all heis said is. 'Don't THE SUTHERLAND 7 go near it, please don't.' Poor uncle! Always looking out. for the good of other people. and perhaps rather neglecting himself. Well, what are We to do now that weire here '2 inquired Miss Castair. Shall we go and see him ? Yes, 1 think that would be the best thing. He may have something to say to you, if he is conscious. Treading softly, as is the way with those nearing a sick person, they passed through the long narmw hall, and enter- ed at last the room of Mr. Hartworth. He was very pale and seemed scarcely more than a shadow, and when he spoke his voice was so faint it could scarcely be heard. Ah, Miranda. I am so glad you have come. And -at last I may see my dear Jean. How lovely you are, child. 'tAnd 1 am so glad to see you. uncle. You must hurry and get well. I'm afraid I'm not going to get well, my dear. Even as he said this he visibly weakened. Charles. I must tell you one thing- before I go. As he said this. the valet came in the door. and. taking in the situation at a glance, he stopped and listened. You know the money room? Well, don't go near it until two months from today. when you will be twenty- one. Promise me this, because if you don't you may never receive the money in store for you. and severe misfortune will befall you. Yes. of course. uncle, I promise. since you wish it. And now rest a while. and we'll come in and see you later. But there was to he no next time, for that night the old man died. After the funeral it seemed best for his cousin and her niece to stay at the manor for a while with Charles. All went well for a time, and then. one night about two weeks later. something happened. It was about eleven-thirty, and everyone had retired. except perhaps some of the servants. Suddenly there rose a long-drawn-out cry, partly a how! and partly a moan. Terrifying in its unearthliness. it was a. cry of mortal terror. as of someone being strangled. Doors flew open and out rushed Jean. Charles and Miss Miranda. With looks of horror on their faces, they listened for the cry to be repeated. But all was still. Jean looked inquiringly at Charles for an explanation. but none was forth- coming. He told the two women to go back to bed, and he and the servants would investigate. Next morning. when the family assembled for breakfast. 5 THE SUTHERLA NU the mystery was still deeper. A servant announced that Jones, the valet, was missing. Private detectives were hired, but to no avail. They could find nothing that would explain the mystery. Gradually. the house settled down into its daily routine, and the shriek was heard no more. A month passed. and the Castairs were planning to leave the following day. Miss Miranda announced that she would not arise until late the next morning, as she had a long journey ahead of her. Hav- ing said this, she retired. Charles and Jean stayed up until about eleven o'clock. and then reluctantly went to their rooms. In less than an hour the midnight stilinees was again broken by a piercing shriek. Cutting the air like a knife, it was as a cry of some unearthiy being. Two doors flew 3,138.11 and two people faced each other. half in terror and half in relief. Where was Miss Miranda? Quickly, Charles went to her door and rapped. There was no answer. He waited a. few seconds. then opened the door. I'Phe room was empty. Then began a frenzied search over the house. But it revealed nothing. Again detectives were called in. At last they came to the money room and were about to enter, when Charles stopped them. Sorry, gentlemen. but you can't go in there. My unclets last wishes were that I should not enter that room until two weeks from this date. and of course that applies to everyone, as I am master here now. Were you alone when your uncle told you that? in- quired one of the detectives. t'Oh no. Jean and her aunt were there, and I think the butler had just come in. H-m-m, said the detective. Well, I shall be working on iris case. and with your permission I shall return in two wee 5. Slowly. the two weeks dragged by. At last the appointed day arrived. Jean. Charles and the two detectives proceeded slowly down to the money room. Sensing some menace, Charles was loath to enter the room. but finally he turned the door knob and went in. Those outside heard a gasp of horror, and peering in they beheld a grewsorne sight. Lying- in the middle of the floor was the distorted body of Miss Miranda Castair. and in one corner lay the lifeless form of Jones, the valet. Truly the sight was terrible enough to strike terror into more hardened hearts. Jean would have fainted had it not been for Charlest supporting arm. THE SUTHERLANU 9 Just as I thought. said the detective. 'Now the prob- lem is to find out the cause of these deaths. I figured out that these two people. both having heard the words of your uncle, would try to get the money before this time, and make a getaway. A careful search around the room revealed small holes in the walls and ceiling. Cutting away the coating of the walls, they found small pipes which contained a poisonous gas. At the end of them was a machine, so arranged and timed, that if the door was opened before the time specified, by the uncle, it would release sufficient gas to kill a person. The uncle must have had some such situation in mind when he planned it. How could he think of it? exclaimed Charlee, Any- way. it will never happen again. This is the end of the money room. - eComelia Gale, '32. W RAINBOW 01d Pierre Goddard spat into the river and exclaimed. Curse the luck. I didn't bring the right kind of tobacco. Trout don't bite when you use Culture; it's Old Briar for me! 1 wonder e. here the old fisherman was interrupted by :5. violent strike: then his reel sang in the cool crisp air of the spring day. A smile spread over his brown weather-beaten face as he fought the rainbow. It was heading for cover un- der a snag. His smile soon left him. He remembered that he had an old line and hook and if he pulled the line taut it would snap. and if he let the trout have the line it would reach and snag and become free. Pierre played the tricks that only a good fisherman knows, but to no avail. There was but one thing to do. wade in and reel in the line. Cautioas- ly he stepped into the river and wound up his line. He reach- ed into the water; he felt a hard surfacad animal. Picking it up he saw it was a turtle. Pierre spat again, then threw pole, line, and turtle back into the water and trumped furious- ly home. eA.

Following is a letter from Miss Osterberg, written at the request of the alumni editor: THEN AND NOW The alumni editor asked me to write something for your high school paper. My first impulse was to try to show you the contrast between Proctor High Scth twenty odd years ago when I was there, and the high school which I now know best. Further deliberation has failed to produce a better in- spiration. so I shall try to do just that. If some of you were to ask your older brothers and sis- ters iperhaps even your fathers and motherst they might be able to tell you about the good times we used to have tabout 50 of usJ in the big assembly room in the old Town Hail building which is still on your campus. We did have a recitation room or two besides, and I remember particulariy an art room that was partitioned off on the balcony of the Audi- torium. I wonder if it is still there. Practically every one in that high school was taking subjects preparing for college or for normal. We even had a ciass in Greek. Commercial sub- jects, home economics, and shop subjects were unheard of. Twenty years will bring many changes. The high school in Los Angeles. of which I am a small part, has about 1700 pupils, 84 members in the faculty, 140 rooms in 7 buildings scattered over a campus of 19 acres and offers an astounding number of different kinds of training. There is the traditional college preparatory course. The cummercial department trains: in secretarial work, bookkeeping. and retail selling. Pupils in the latter course work in the stores one half day and earn while they learn during their junior and senior years. The shops are equipped with thousands of dollars worth of ma- chinery which makes it possible for boys to choose among such training as that offered in auto shop. machine shop, forge. sheet metal shop. electric shop, wood shop, paint shop, and the print shop. The latter is equipped with five linotype machines as Well as the presses and type setting necessities and the bookbinding equipment. The girls may choose whether they wish training in power-machine, sewing, or cooking, tincluding cafeteria worki or training for the beauty parlor operator's job, nursing or millinery. In addition. courses are offered for those talented in music. art, library work. and architecture. In order to help each pupil to find his most comfortable niche, the school administration has several officials who were 36 THE SUTHERLANU not known in my high school days. Besides the principai. there is a boyst vicewprincipal and a girls' vice-principal. a regis- trar who is responsible for attendance and credit records. a counselor who helps the new students plan their courses, and a lihrarian in charge of a sizable library. tTextbooks are fur- nished by the statet . So you see, the present day high school is richer by far in opportunities for training than the high school of twenty years ago. But this is not all. The social activities of its pupils are also supervised and cared for. The athletic field is the pride of the city; equipped with large bleachers. public address sys- tem ta loud speakert a professional score board, as Well as the turf for football and baseball games and a cinder path for track. The girls too, have beautiful lawns for use in their outdoor gym work. 0 almost forgot to mention that the boys and girls each have their own well equipped gymnasium build- ingJ There is the student body council. self-govemment or- ganizations. clubs of every sort and description from Dramatics to Aviation, lessons in violin. band instruments. art, agricul- ture. Hardly an activity can be mentioned that doesn't find some place in the curriculum or outside of it under the super- vision of the school. The Auditorium seats 1800. has a well equipped and large stage. Boys in the electrical class take care of the lighting whenever plays or operettas are presented. The stage art class designs and executes the setseSo it goes. Perhaps I should mention the Cafeteria which every school day feeds some 700 of the school population. We have one point in common, P. H. 5., twenty years ago. in Vermont. and J. H. S. today. in California. This high school, too. has a cosmopolitan population. Not only Italian. French and Swedish. along with the usual English names are on our roster. but Spanish. Jewish. Japanese, Chinese. Philippine and Negro names appear also. eI-IILDUR OSTERBERG.
