One thing that remains as a result of study is the power to understand and interpret other men s minds It is only through such understanding that appreciations can be developed Engineers tell us that the great failures in the engineering profession are due not to any lack of the mastery of materials but a lack of insight into human nature Engineers understand their materials better than they understand their men They know what will hold up a bridge but not what will hold together the workers who must build it Failures in teaching we are told are not so much the result of a lack of knowledge of subject matter and of courses of study as it is a lack of understanding of the individual being taught. One of the most important products of learning then is the ability to under- stand human nature. One other thing that should travel with us is the capacity to carry old methods into new situations and solve problems we never faced before. When Admiral Dewey sailed into Manila Bay he was moving among dangerous mines through waters he had never sailed. Years before he had sailed with Farragut up the Mississippi and using the same courage and the same scientific method in the Philippine harbor as on the American river he accomplished his goal. We are attracted to Colonel Lindbergh not so much because he fiew across the Atlantic as because the coolness courtesy and courage acquired among the simple surroundings of a western home are now being so nobly applied in a situation the most trying that any man can be called upon to endure. l . Facts soon go from us unless we continue to use them. But methods insights appreciations understandings values-extracted from many studies-these abide and travel with us through the years. So may it be with the Class of 32. JOSEPH LAYTON NIOORF. 3 l'J Tm l HIGH scnool.

RALPH BOYD SHARER His earnest concern for the welfare of each individual student as well as for the class as a whole has made our Senior Class Advisors duties something more and something better than merely that of advising. Of his aid in coaching our play advising the Ye Ridlymz guiding our financial budget and the countless other ways in which Mr. Sharer has helped us too much cannot be said. Suffice it to say that each of us has received his help and each of us will remember Mr. Sharer with thc fondest munories 'md kindest thoughts. Til'1'fC'r' HICH SCHOOI X CLASS HISTORY OUR years ago we started our pilgrimage to the city of Graduation by wagon We had four huge wagons with a quantity of straw in the bottom of each for these were old fashioned sprlngless wagons One hundred and sixty braved the venture and our wagons were driven bv the officers whom we had selected before starting James Paiste President Raymond Jefferies Vice President Louise Simpson Secretary and Anna Stark Treasurer After crossing a long covered bridge fwith windows on each sidel we entered a very quaint village where we stopped to sell our magazines We were quite successful or at least we thought so However we have been told quite often since that we were green then We traveled for a few days over some high mountains The roads at this part of the Journey were rather bad and because we were so shaken and Jolted we thought that we were entitled to a rest when we reached the Town of Declamation Contest We chose Stephen Magxll Margaret Mink and Mary Winsmore to represent us in the contest that was to be given in the town hall in a few days Before the day arrived however Mary Winsmore became sick and Margaret Bloomer took her place W dlrdn t win the contest so we won t dwell on it but pass on to more pleasant t ings We remained two whole long months in Vacation City to view and experience all the wonderful things there Before we continued our Journey we elected new leaders for our band fwhich had dlmlnlshd a great deal from the original one hundred and sixtyl Stephen Maglll President William Streit Vice President Blanche Fulton Secretary and Anna Stark Treasurer Now we were ready to weather more bumpy roads long hills and stony brooks We were getting hardened to the open road for we traveled for almost three months without making any long stops. It was about this time that we decided to sell Christmas cards so we took our time to canvass the vicinity of Christmas Town with our small decorated boxes. We were received so hospitably that we remained there for the holidays. We resolved to edit a paper Sophomore Highlights which became popular in a very short time. Because we enjoyed these class papers so much ourselves we continued to print them with the small printing set that was always carried in the baggage wagon until we reached Gradua- tion. Blanche Fulton Herman Muehsam and Wilson Hoopes took charge of these papers and Cornelia Verhey designed the covers for them. Madeline Cox Margaret Laird and Margaret Mink were the speakers in the next Declamation Contest. Margaret Mink won the individual prize and was presented with a school pin. Toward the end of the second year we caught up to the rest of the inhabitants of R. P. H. S. who were also making the pilgrimage. We all had a vacation together presenting the play The Amazons. Those from our class who were included in the cast vuere: David Bonnet Margaret Mink and Mary Winsmore. L ....9 T11 irfrfn I RIDLEY PARK XA Our leaders for the third year were elected as follows Stephen Magill President Herman Huehsam Vice Presldent Corneha Verhey Secretary and Anna Stark Treasurer We contlnued on our way w1th a little more than half the number with which we had started Some had turned back because of illness some Just couldnt stand the strain and others dropped off while we were fording the numerous streams In December we halted at Party Town where we had a wonderful time one evening with games eats music and dancing We took our time about getting under way again When February arrived we Just had to stop to give a play Captain Applejack was presented by the able cast including Isabelle Fullerton Robert Von Sick Mary Dempsey Mary WlnSmOF6 Katherine Greim Paul Burgess Joseph Hager Blanche Fulton George Berlin and David Bonnet The cast was supported by a l1st of twelve blood thirsty pirates We were successful in our stop ln Contest Town to participate in the Annual Declamation Contest We were the winners because of Blanche Fulton Bart Rees and Mary Winsmore On May 8 we traveled over hill and dale in order to reach Merri ment Town before sundown where that evenmg we had another of our rare parties One of the most memorable events of the year was the V1S1t to Ring Village on the top of a high mountain It could only be reached by a narrow wlndlng road and once there we did not depart until we were outfitted with class rings and pins For the last and seemingly shortest lap of the tr1p we chose Stephen Maglll Presldent George Berlin Vice President Olive Davis Secretary Anna Stark and Clarence Smith Treasurers These able drivers guided us carefully over the rough spots and through the marshy lands During this last year each Senior was assigned specific duties under the committee system so that none of us were able to sit back and watch others work we were all kept comparatively busy One of our very first stops occurred in the middle of Autumn in the Borough of Freshman Reception It was here that we entertained the neighboring Freshmen and had a wonderful time ourselves We were not able to travel for a whole year wlthout giving a play so before Christmas we stopped in Performance Town where we presented The Arrival of Kitty. To add variety to the not any too easy job of class advisor Mr. Ralph B. Sharer who coached the play a double cast was used. Those who were in the Friday night cast were' William Wood Paul Burgess Wilson Hoopes GeorgeAnne Van Dyke Blanche Fulton Loice Janke George Berlin Leroy Ellis and Mary Dempsey. Those in the Sat- urday night cast. Bart Rees Joseph Hager Gilbert Mohr Cornelia Verhey Anna Stark Dorothy Ford Andrew Houliston Thomas Pratt and Catherine Coleman. Fifty-five happy boys and girls survived all the hardships of wagon- travel and were thankful that they had the courage to keep looking ahead Our next to the last stop was in Washington' it surely left us gasping for the rest of the year. Last but not least after four years we reached the solemn city of Graduation our destination LORETTA TREFZ.

The Declamation Contest gave us another chance to show what we could do This time our team consisted of Margaret Laird Madeline Cox and Margaret Mink with Lois Koch as alternate We came out second and Margaret Mink won the individual priz of a school pin xx 1th the class numerals attached The Junior play now become our goal and we elected to present that well known play of romance and adventure Captain Appleiack The characters were Ambrose Applejohn fRobert Von Slckb who wanted adventure Poppy Faire flsabelle Fullerton! who wanted Ambrose Anna Valeska fMary Winsmorel the scheming villainness' Borolsky fCharles Benson, Annas husband' Pengard fPaul Burgessj and Mrs. Pengard fKatherine Greimb a pair of treasure thiexes' Aunt Agatha fMary Dempseyj who believed in routine' Johnny Jason fGeorge Berlinj salesman at heart' Dennet fJoseph Hagerl the policeman ' and lush fDavid Bonnetl and Palmer fBlanche Fultonj servants of the hous ,.

Captain Applejack xx as a great success even financially and it set a precedent for coming ,lasses to try to lixe up to. Our Junior declamation team Blanche Fulton Mary Winsmore and Bart Rees with Elizabeth Kilgallen alternate carried away class honors and the silver cup. That was a whole bunch of feathers in oui cap! We counted the months until our Senior Play and when we finally presented The Arrival of Kitty two nights, with a different cast each Til ir! jx-Z 11 ru: RIDLEY PARK night, we acknowledged that it was well worth waiting for. We can see visions of that play even now. The very stage in the gym brings to mind memories of George Berlin and Andrew Houliston strutting around in high-heeled shoes, dresses and girls' wigs, as the bogus Kittyg Loice Janke and Dorothy Ford, the heroines, Mary Dempsey and Catherine Coleman as the real Kittyg Leroy Ellis and Thomas Pratt as the susceptible Benny g Joseph Hager and Paul Burgess hunting for de man what owns dis yere trunk , GeorgeAnne Van Dyke and Cornelia Verhey hunt- ing for a man, Wilson Hoopes and Gilbert Mohr, after the moneyg Bill Wood and Bart Rees, temporarily in charge of the Halcyon House, and Blanche Fulton and Anna Stark as the French maids. The Declamation team was great. Loice Janke, Andrew Houliston, Leroy Ellis, and Stephen Magill, alternate, certainly are of the best. With this contest, the Class of 1932 drew the curtain upon its high school dramatics, and with all due respect to itself, now proclaims, All that I was or ever hoped to be, I owe to those who acted as coaches. Namely, Miss Ellison, Miss Shafer, and Miss Ellis, who coached The Amazons g Miss Johnson and Miss Shellender, who coached Captain Appleiackn' and Mr Sharer to whom we owe the success of The Arrival of Kitty MARGARET MINK THE KRRIVAL OF KITTY 3 .l Ilf 1 HIGH SLHOOI xg WASHINGTON TRIP T LAST we have completed the tllp which we all haxe looked foiw aid to for four years Our trip to Washington IS past but the pleasant memory of it remains with us Early on the morning of the 27th of Ap11l an excited gi oup of Seniors and guests Q58 in alli boarded the train for Washington at the Ridlev Paxk Station Arriving at the Union Station in Washington we left our baggage to be sent to the hotel and immediately began a tour of the ity ln two Blue Line buses After short stops at the Bureau of Printing and En gravmg the Pan American Building the White House and the Smith sonian Institute we arrived at the Capitol Building where we stayed for almost three hours seeing the Senate and the Supreme Couit at work and having a guide explaln the various parts of the building such as the Rotunda and the Whispering Gallery and the specimens of Alt which ale there The Washington Monument was the object of oui next onquest lt was conquered by most of us one way or another Some walked up and rode down and others rode up and walked down Those that walked counted the entire number of steps for some reason or other and none seemed to be able to agree on the number The hotel was a welcome sight after such a full afternoon of travel ln the evening after supper we went to the Library of Congress and viewed through the amber glass the Constitution and the Declaration of Inde pendence After seeing the Library Building we went to the Capitol again to see it in the glory of many flood lights Thus the first day was ended Un some iespects J Thursday without a cloud of care we went to Alllllg'tOli and the Lee Mansion At Arlington we visited the Tomb of America s Unknown Soldier and the grave of a Ridley Park High School graduate Lieutenant Roland Buse U S N who lost his life in an airplane C1 ash Marx Dempsey placed a wreath upon his grave After leaving Arlington we traveled by bus through Georgetown and Alexandria on the way to Mt. Vernon. Here we were first herded on to the front lawn to haxe a photograph taken and then we w ere allow ed to roam as we pleased. We visited Washingtons tomb and inspected the house and gardens. Due to an appointment to meet Mrs. Hoover we had to leave fVIt. Vernon after about an hour s stay. This appointment with the President s wife was obtained by Miss Johnson s mother through Senator Townsend of Delaware. After being in the East Room of the White House for '1 nervous half hour we were led into the Blue Reception Room where we were arranged in a semi-circle by the White House secretary Then Mrs. Hoover entered greeted us com ersed with us shook hands with us and said goodbye. We all agreed that the meeting with Mrs. Hoover was one of the highlights of our Washington trip. Returning for lunch at the hotel we prepared for the afternoon excur- sions.

RIDLEY PARK HH H st H001 SWEET ADVERSITY LD RIP JACKSON was ill As a matter of fact he was on his death bed Ripley Jackson w as in his sixty fourth year and the doctor said there was little hope for his recox ery after the heart attack he had had His family was all gathered around his bed side hoping and praying The doctor was also there to assist if assistance would do any good He tried to raise himself from his pillows but the effort was too much and he sank back again with deep groans Then he said in a very weak voice hardly above a whisper Laura Laura come here His daughter came closer and heard his hushed voice Laura go to my desk open it look in th11d pigeon hole from left all way back He stopped and the room was stilled during the long pause Finally Old Rip got enough strength and courage to ontinue Find key open second draw er below take out box paper it It 1 It was too much foi him and he nevei finished but left his sentence pending with It is a The doctor went to him and felt his pulse and tried to make him more comfortable Laura went into the next room and rolled back the top of the desk as her father had said She counted over three pigeon holes and took out the numerous papers she found in it In the very back as though hidden from any intruder was a small key She fitted it into the lock of a drawer right below the pigeon hole It turned easily and after Laura had opened it and extracted the box she removed the lid of the box and found a rather old paper about two inches squai e folded and covered with some writing on it She hurried back to her father s room but the doctor said he was in too weak a condition to receive the paper so it was laid aside for the time being. Ripley Jackson died that night. During the hustle and bustle and mourning of the funeral and the days that followed this small piece of paper was forgotten. One afternoon about a week after the funeral Mrs. Jackson started to put away things of personal interest to her husband that she found in his bedroom and den. Exerything she touched reminded her of Rip. Finally she came across an old piece of paper about two inches square. She unfolded it. There was writing on it in her husband s hand. Tears filled the eyes of Mrs. Jackson and trickled down her cheeks as she read it. Su ect are the uses of aclzersity Which like the toad ugly and zehmzous llears get a precious ieu el in his hcad' And this our life exempt from public haunt Finds tongues in trees books in running brooks Sermons in stones and good in czfrgthing. What could this possibly mean? Mrs. Jackson read it over and over but could not fathom it. It was too much for her. 3 l3 f'or'lj.'-I S-Q ' Z RIDLEY 1ARk Q She put down her work with only one thought 1n mind to determine the value of the words on this paper She rushed downstairs where her daughter Laura was talking to Jim Thornton a young man of her acquaintance and Lewls her brother Lewis she said rushing into the room which they were occupying look at this It IS the paper your father told Laura to get out of his desk the last evening of his life We have forgotten it What do you make of it Lew took the scrap of paper and hastily read it Then he re read it slowly It was too much for him also so he handed it to Laura who also read it but to no avail Nor could Jim Thornton solve the mystery after reading the paper What can lt mean? they all wondered It seems to have no bearing on any one of us said Mrs Jackson but your father was very anxious about it when you were fetching lt And he was never one to be anxious about anything unless it was extremely important Again the piece of paper was passed around from hand to hand Each person read it thoroughly several times so that it was practically memorized I ll bet it s a code said Lewis Maybe so but it sounds too good for a code said Laura Most codes dont make good sense or are written with such obscure meanings that they don t seem to have sense This does have a meaning even if it doesn t seem to refer to us The comparisons are too good for a code I dont agree with you exclaimed Jim I have no idea what this could possibly mean but this might be a code It may be to take the first letter of each word Does anyone have any better ideas If not let s try it because Im convinced that the better sense the words make the better the code Are you willing to try to decipher 1t'7 Yes let s crled Lew and Laura in one voice What they finally made out of it that way was not much help if any ATUOAWLTTUAVMYAPJIHHATO F P H etc It was Just a Jumble of letters Then they decided they would take the first letter of the first word and the second letter of the second word and so on until a word didn t have enough letters in it then they would start over on the first letter again. The result of this attempt was also hopeless. The letters ran: S R E UFVCLHAYAETARWHEDTUFMFUUetc. These four people worked out many codes but none of them seemed to fit. It was late when they decided to stop to eat and rest from their deciphering. Of course their only conversation was the words: Sweet are the uses of adversity-etc. I know said Laura I have heard these words somewhere before. I have thought so all afternoon and now I am certain. But where? And be- sides that could never have been an original composition of Dad s. He never wrote poetry and if he did that was too good for him. But that doesn't tell me where I have heard those words before. 'You don't know what you're talking about, remonstrated her brother. ' Dad may have written poetry and if he did he might have written this. You never give anybody but yourself any credit. And besides I do twice as much reading as you and I never heard those words. 3 CT..1.'J forty-.fix HIGH SLHOOI Nor added Laura do you read the same kind of l1te1 atuie as I do You only rush ox er trash Come come my children dont start a fuss begged Mrs Jackson You don t want Jim to think that you don t ex er do anything but fuss Oh come replied Jim You know I don t think the I know where that comes from burst in Laura It comes from Shakespeare Shakespeare' growled her brothel What do you know about Shakespeare Well it is Shakespeare And if you dont beliexe me you go look for yourself Well where will I find it ' What is it from ' One of his plays' I don t know but I do know it 1S from Shakespeare Well let s go look in the Book of Quotations said Mrs Jackson All left their dlnners uneaten and rushed into the library Laura took out the book and looked up Sweet are the uses of adversity etc Sure enough these were lines from Shakespeare s As You Like It You w1n sis' said Lew reluctant to give in to his sister But let s look It up in As You Like It Soon they found the page where these words were written Look what do these figures mean? exclaimed Jim Far down the side of the page were these figures 0 5 16 104 3 33 Another puzzle' But let s copy this down and work this out This IS surely a code if the other ISU t Why' look It is a code or why why would we have th1s mysterious piece of paper which leads to these figures Lets get busy Such were the words of Lew O K said Jim and Laura Laura tried to put the book back on the shelf of the bookcase after copying the queer arrows and numbers on a paper Lew what IS that thing' she asked when she perceived what looked like a button preventing the book from sliding lnto place It looks like a button he returned Let s see' Say this IS good You know we have a real mystery here Get out of my way so I can push it What do you suppose It will do He pushed it. Watch out he yelled as the bookcase slowly opened 'toward them. What have we here? He got down on his knees and examined what seemed to be a safe. It s a safe a safe! What can be in it? And how are we going to open it? Oh-I bet those arrows and numbers fit it. They are the ombination of that safe. Let s try them. Put the dial on O and turn it right to 16' 'then stop. Go around to the right twice and stop at 10. Then 'turn it around 'to the left three times past 10 and stop at 33. Next go to the right and stop at 6. If it is done right it may open. I bet it does said Jim. Lew did as he was bidden. After he had stopped at 6 he 'tried the safe door to see if it would open. It did. It opened as 'though it had been used often. And to think there had been a safe in the house and no one knew of it except their father! They all crouched down in front of this small hole in the wall and looked inside at what seemed to be -1 few rolls of something and an old paper. Laura took these out. 3 .....9 lloriy-5 'Q' 'L X RIDII-Y I'ARlx ix Oh Mother she exclaimed look here It looks like money Let s see said Lew grabbing the rolls from her hands There were six rolls of old money Lew unrolled one as everyone drevs close to h1m They re five hundred dollar bills Mother One two three seven eight ten eleven nineteen twenty Twenty five hundred iollar bills Mothei Laura We re rich we re rich' Jim we re rich' Ten thousand dollars ln one roll and six rolls Do you think they are real and not counterfeit? Of course the Jackson family was decidedly ox erioyed with this sud den wealth Jim felt decidedly out of place and tried to back out but was caught by Mrs Jackson Read this sealed note Mother It may explain ex erything said Lew Mrs Jackson took the note trembling all ox er She recognized that it was her husband s writing which she must read but she braced herself as best she could and breaking the seal took the small piece of paper con tained 1n the envelope It dated four years befoie and read My Dearest Minerva Because of some feeling which I cannot desciibe I feel that my end is drawing near Yet I cannot bring myself to tell 5 ou this Because of this I am writing You have no doubt found the money for it is in the safe with this note I had a peculiar old uncle who was a misei When he died two years ago he left me sixty thousand Although you knew of his death Iam aware of the fact that you did not know I was an heir to sixty thousand from him But the terms were such that I could not spend it for twenty years I cannot imagine his idea for making such strange stipulations unless it was because of his hatred for my family Perhaps he supposed you and your children would be dead by that time and I could spend it alone But the money is yours and undoubtedly as much a surprise as I wanted it to be I hope you will live comfortably Wlth it Perhaps it will put 'mul childien through college and set them up in business But I leaxe it all to your dlscretlon This IQ my last wish that my family haxe something to live peacefully Rip. This was too much. Mrs. Jackson burst into tears and left the room. It seemed to put a damper on the joy of the younger folks. Finally Mrs. Jackson returned. That passage from Shakespeare is going to be my fax orite speech she said for it enabled me to educate my childien and lixe happy and peaceful the rest of my days. ELLANOR HOOPMAN.
