At our first class meeting, we elected the following officers: Wilbur Ayres, president: Charles Appell, vice-president: Evalyn Davenport, secretary: Arthur Bryant, treasurer, and Miss Gruber, faculty advisor. We immediately took an active part in athletics. Howard Dilley, Robert Dilley, and Harry Segur played football so splendidly that they were chosen for the Varsity team. In basketball we also furnished players for the Varsity teams. Alice Troxler represented us on the girls' basketball team and Arthur Bryant, James Barwicke, and Charles Appell on the boys' team. When the Curtis Publishing Company gave the high school an opportunity to replen- ish its treasury by selling magazines, and the school offered a chicken dinner to the class earning the most money, fortune smiled upon the Freshmen and we were the successful class. On March 9, we celebrated our victory with a bounteous chicken dinner in the domestic science room. The only other social event of the year was a party held at the home of our Secretary. As Sophomores, we began to feel that we were a real part of the High School. This year we elected these officers: Alice Troxler, president: Roy Davis, vice-president: Arthur Bryant, treasurer: Evalyn Davenport, secretary, and Miss Gruber, faculty advisor. We had an enjoyable class party this year at the home of Sue Raas. In 1923-1924 six of our boys were on the Varsity football team, three boys on the Varsity basketball team, and one girl on the girls' basketball team. We are proud of our record in the inter-class basketball contests-we won five out of six games. When we returned in September, 1924, as Juniors, our membership had been diminished to thirty-four. We elected the following oflicers: Roy Davis, president: Oliver Steward, vice-president: Robert Stephens, secretary: Charles Appell, treasurer, and Miss Morning, faculty advisor. During the year we had two delightful parties-the first at the home of Morris Alpaugh, and the second at the home of Willard Willetts. Miss Morning and Miss Gruber were our chaperons. This year we supplied a number of good players to the various athletic teams. Oliver Steward, Harry Segur, Willard Willetts, Willard Holt, Morris Alpaugh, Charles Norman, and Robert Bioren represented us in football. Oliver Steward and Charles Appell were on the boys' basketball team, whereas Alice Troxler and Sue Raas were on the girls' basketball team. Again we Page 28 R.H.S. ROXBURY ECHO 1936 .qw 4- were successful in the Curtis Publishing Company drive and won our chicken dinner. Mildred Brady won the individual prize of five dollars. ln the Fall of 1925 we returned, Seniors, with a class of thirty-four. Three of our old members had left us, but three new members-Helen Hunger, Eliza- beth Howell, and Lawrence Zellars from Long Valley-joined us this year. taking the three vacant places. We elected these officers: Robert Bioren, Pres- ident: Charles Appell, Vice-President: Roy Davis, Treasurer: James Cox, Secretary, and Miss Rhinehart, our Faculty Advisor.

We also leave them our beloved teachers, books, pencils, etc., together with some sound advice: If you would follow the footsteps of your illustrious predecessors, climb the mountain of ambition, and arrive at the peak of success attained by us, we do earnestly admonish you to study diligently, especially during your study periods: to use, not abuse, your books: to report on time to classes: not to talk, whisper, or write notes in classes or study hall, not to chew gum or eat candy in classes. We have no doubt that if the above advice is taken seriously and adhered to by the Juniors, given time, they will some day reach the heights of success achieved by us. Second: We bequeath all the athletic ability in the Senior Class to the future teams of Roxbury. Third: We also bequeath: Harriette Hildebrandfs birdlike voice to Ruth DeGraw. With this, plus her own, she will be able to furnish a private broadcasting station for the enter- tainment of the school and the surrounding country. Mildred Bradifs ability as a saleswoman to Betty Plume. Maybe she can win a few live-dollar gold pieces. ,Mildred Haggertifs excess demerits to Grace Brodeen. Florence Danielson's fluffy hair to George Rockefeller, hoping his will stay in place like hers without an excess application of stickum. Charles Appellls all-around ability in athletics to Dykie, his companion in arms. Willard Holt's lovely skin to Pelly. If this is added to his own, he will certainly have that school-girl complexion and the skin you love to touch. A clear Held to Yank, vacated by Philip Rochelle. Elizabeth Howell's childish ways to Helen Carey. Lawrence Zellers' weight to Selden Fitzherbert, in hopes that he'1l hold the end of the line for Roxbury next year as well as our Seniors have done in the past. Lorraine Laaerman's famous dailect to Bill Reger. It may help him both in debating and in throwing a heavy line. Violet Lozier's sheikish bob to Thelma Dey. Lydia Johnson's spontaneity to Louise Crater. Frances Albertson's A's and A-pluses to George Ammerman. Wilbur Apgar's vocal chords to Lead. They may help him to bluff the teachers next year.

We sin- cerely hope that she may be able to entertain the future Senior Class as Carl has the present Senior Class. Alberta Haslam's quiet smile to Ruth Parcell. That laugh carries Ruth! Harry Segur's mischievous inclinations to Helen Bigelow. Robert Bioren's slogan, What's the use of working when you can bluff, to Alma Beasley. If she heeds this suggestion. we believe she will have no more grey hairs than Bob has at the end of his Senior year.

We hereby solemnly declare the Junior Class executors of our last Will and Testament. and request on our bended knees that they carry out these provisions, for heights such as we have climbed can only be attained by follow- ing our most perfect advice. And, Juniors, please try to help those not men- tioned in this Will by removing some of their greenness, thus initiating them into the higher realms of the school life, as we have done for you.

Four years ago, in our youthful way, We dreamed of a year's advance, When we should be Sophomores bold and gay And with others take our chance. And when to that Junior room we passed, A joyous, hopeful band, We dreamed that as Seniors wise, at last, At the top of the ladder we'd stand. But now there is one more step to take: Our dreams reach farther afield. Success or failure is ours to make- Shall we victors be, or yield? Some of us dream of a higher state, Some of us dream of power: But all of us know that to master our fate We must be at the helm every hour. It's the dreams that keep our courage up Through the many trials of life, For each of us strives for a golden cup As reward of our ceaseless strife.

Alma Beasley, Ellen Brimijoin, and Leona Vleit were contestants in the final declamation contest. Eight boys considered themselves eligible to sing in Cilee Club: likewise fifteen girls. Beas- ley, Reger, Emmett, Pell, and Brodeen are members of the ECHO Board. Reger, Emmett, Beasley, Schmitt, and Vleit took leading parts in the school play, Clarence DeGraw and Brodeen played on the girls' basketball team, whereas Reger, Pell, Vanlsiuvcnder, Obdyke, Cagnoni, and Emmett helped to uphold the name of the class by playing on the boys' basketball team. In the Boys' Inter-Class Basketball Games, the Juniors were champions. During our three years at Roxbury we have had many good times as well as much hard work.

Midst the scenes to us so dear, Full of hustle, full of hurry, Are the days that we spend here. As we won athletic victories On the baseball field of old. Still we work for dear old Roxbury, And the Dark Blue and the Gold. Although other schools are larger, And their names are better known, Still the school that we will favor Is the school that is our own. We will work for dear old Roxbury And float her colors bold. For the colors of our High School Are the Dark Blue and the Gold. When the cares of life fertake us. Mingling fast our locks with gray, Should our dearest hopes betray us, False fortune fall away. Still we banish care and sadness At the memories of old, And recall those days of gladness 'Neath the Dark Blue and the Gold. aw- BOYS' DEBATING TEAM pehzxting PPARENTLY our fame as debaters has reached far, All our pros- pective opponents showed a significant unwillingness to debate with us .LL 6 this year, even when the most inviting terms were offered them. Feel- ing that the debate is an indispensable event in the school year, we decided to have a debate among ourselves. The boys suggested that the boys should oppose the girls, and the girls, their sporting instincts aroused, accepted the challenge. The try-outs resulted in the selection of two teams which promise an interesting contest. Willard Reger fcaptainj, Guido Cagnoni, Donald Bee- man, and Robert Stephens constitute the boys' team: Alice Troxler Ccap- tainj, Ruth Baker, Helen Bigelow, and Ellen Brimijoin the girls' team. Page 42 ! i GIRLS' DEBA TING TEAM Y HE question for debate is: I Resolved, that the Federal Government ' should own and operate the anthracite coal mines. The boys very gallantly offered to give the girls either side of the question they pre- ferred, but the girls refused to accept any concessions. A flip of the coin resulted in favor of the boys, who chose the negative. The two teams. co-operating with and guided by their respective coaches, Miss Driscoll and Miss Rinehart, are beginning their preparations with enthusi- asm. We are fortunate in that we are to have for our judge Professor R. C. Reager, head of the department of public speaking at Rutger's. The debaters and the audience will be interested in Professor Reager's decision and in his constructive criticism. Roxbury is eagerly anticipating a close debate on the thirtieth of April.

All the encyclopedias and reference books were placed on these shelves, and the library proper was not open for use during the time school was in session. Alas, one less place to idle away a study hour, one less rendezvous for a meeting of two! A number of books were donated to us this year by the Sunday School Library, and for these and all other donations we are very grateful. We have not yet purchased the usual number of new books this year, but contemplate doing so before the end of the term, We wish to take this opportunity to thank our librarians and friends who have so willingly helped to make the Library a success this year. GRACE BRODEEN, '27 Page 49 I Qshralqant flinculn I 1 5 4 1:73 ':'Q1.f LINCOLN was one of the greatest statesmen Q33 .1.1 jg . 1V. 'Ti '- . fgqlff America has ever produced. He was a true example of the new race being developed under the influence of pioneer life. if f-i5'.E:5 ,-r Lincoln was born in Hardin County, Kentucky, now La gif Rue County, on February 12, 1809. He was born in the '55 humblest kind of home, in surroundings that were to create in him understanding of the poor and a desire to help them. His parents, though poor, were able so to mould the character of their son that he desired above all things honesty and wisdom. The roving disposition of Linco1n's father caused the family to have three different homes during Lincoln's child- hood. In the Indiana home, exposure and lack of necessities brought about the death of Lincoln's mother. His father unceremoniously performed the burial. Several months later, when the circuit preacher came, the youthful Lincoln took him to the grave and had the proper rites performed. Thus early did Lincoln show a desire for the proprieties. Soon after his mother's death, Lincoln's father desired a change of scene, and returned to Kentucky. He married again, and Lincoln's step-mother did a great deal for the betterment of the home, guiding his reading and incul- cating in the young Lincoln a strong desire for knowledge. Though Lincoln had very few books to read, the ones he had were the bestihis Bible, Pilgrim's Progress, and Robinson Crusoe. For lack of a school, he was forced to be his own instructor, but even in the task of teaching himself, he made the noblest efforts, and succeeded in acquiring a superior knowledge. As a boy Lincoln gained a reputation for wit and forceful speech. In 1831, Lincoln made a voyage down the Mississippi to New Orleans. Page 50 'f iaagilr - R.H.S. ROXBURY ECHO 193.6 .Ng 4- While on this trip. so greatly was he influenced by' conditions of slavery in the South that he determined, should it ever be in his power to do so, to free the negro. In another year's time Lincoln felt that he was ready to undertake some of the public responsibility of a politician. Therefore, in 1832, he became a candidate for the Illinois Legislature. Though he was not elected, he held third place among the contestants-a testimony of the popularity of a Whig in a Democratic district. Having failed to be elected, he went back to his work on the farm, splitting rails and doing odd jobs. Then, in 1834, undis- mayed by his former failure, he again became a candidate for the Legislature, and succeeded in being elected to the Illinois House of Representatives, an oflice which he held till 1842. It is interesting to note that when he was nominated for re-election in 1836, in one of his speeches he seemed to favor equal suffrage. The following year Lincoln made known his attitude on the question of slavery. He realized that slavery was an evil, but an evil that Congress lacked power to check: and that all the work of the Abolitionists was only increasing feeling between the North and the South. After long years of study and effort, he was admitted to the bar in 1837. Two years later he moved to Springfield, the new capital of Illinois, where he became a partner of one of the leading lawyers, John T. Stuart. Because his new partner was a political man, Lincoln was given most of the law cases. At the end of two years, however, Lincoln dissolved this partnership. In 1864, Lincoln received a new honor, election to the National House of Repre- sentatives. While serving as a Representative he seized the opportunity to speak against slavery. The close of his term in Congress brought another disappointment-the belief that his attitude toward the Mexican War had killed his political life. For this reason Lincoln retired to private life and resumed his practice of law. At this time we see in strong relief the supreme characteristics of Lincoln, honesty and justice. He refused to fight cases in which he knew his client was guilty, but when his client was in the right he would bring forth arguments well-nigh irrefutable. This rugged honesty assured Lincoln of the careful and concentrated attention of both judge and jury. As the cloud of war began to roll darkly over our nation, Lincoln once more put his efforts into political life. When Douglas, in 1854, was to justify the Nebraska Bill to the Illinois voters, Lincoln came greatly to favor the Abolitionists. He next became a candidate for the United States Senate- an unsuccessful candidate: but, undaunted by his defeat, he helped create the Republican party, and in 1858 the new party nominated him for Senator. In his speech of acceptance, Lincoln made clear his position with regard to seces- sion, saying: A house divided against itself cannot stand. Soon afterward. Lincoln challenged Douglas to a series of debates, the famous Lincoln-Douglas Debates. In the arguments, Lincoln made plain the conditions prevailing in the South, and foretold the coming crisis, which at that time seemed practically unavoidable. So great was Lincoln's speaking ability and so clear his reason- ing that Horace Greeley, a friend of Douglas, said: Lincoln is the foremost convincer of his day. Douglas, however, won the senatorship, but Lincoln. instead of being discouraged, simply battled so much the harder. Page 51 1926 ROXBURY ECHO R.H.R:9. 44,3 ,. In 1859, Lincoln made a number of speeches in the West. The next year he was asked to speak in New York, and on February 27, 1860, he delivered an address at Cooper Union, where he aroused a great deal of enthusiasm for abolition. Lincoln bitterly opposed Doug1as's views, that the founders of our nation understood the problem of slavery and intended that part of the country should hold slaves. Lincoln's opposition of Douglas made a deep impression upon people in the East, arousing them to a realization of Lincoln's potential greatness, and his possible value to the nation. Having convinced the party leaders of his worth, Lincoln in 1860 became the Republican candidate for President. Although he received not a single vote from the slave States, he was elected. The events of Lincoln's administration are familiar to most of us, espe- cially the Civil War, which has proved to be the greatest test our nation ever endured. The vast variety of ideas held by different members of his Cabinet made Lincoln's burden doubly hard to bear, At one time War with England seemed to be impending, but by his tolerance and willingness to uphold the right,ALincoln was able to avoid a struggle which, without doubt, would have ruined our Union. On January 1, 1863, Lincoln issued the Proclamation of Emancipation, declaring all slaves free. On November 19, 1863, Lincoln delivered his famous address at Gettysburg. In the early part of 1864 he entrusted the carrying on of the war to his generals, and spent much time in political affairs, in a campaign for re-election. Lincoln had to work hard to eleminate his strong competitors. The Democratic platform, which con- demned Lincoln's plan of war, was ruined by several successive victories in the South won by Sherman, Farragut, and Sheridan. Thus, with the Democratic platform gone, Lincoln was successful in being re-elected to the Presidency. In January, 1865, he succeeded in getting Congress to vote for the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution, which prohibits slavery, and thereby he made sure the Emancipation Proclamation. It seemed only natural that Lincoln might be prejudiced toward the South, but he showed a very different spirit. He made clear his love for the Southern people and his desire to deal justly with them. General Lee saw tit to surrender April 9, 1865. Five days later, there occurred one of the greatest tragedies in history, and the greatest tragedy in the history of our nation, the assassination of Lincoln. He was shot by a man who sympathized with the South, and believed that thus would he gain favor in the South, but such was not the case. The South, as well as the North, mourned the death of Lincoln. Our nation had received a terrible blow. At a critical moment the helmsman had been snatched from the ship of state. Even European countries realized our loss and shared our sorrow. There is no doubt that the death of Lincoln made more difficult the period of reconstruc- tion after the war. Had he lived, his kindness, his tender nature, and his love for humanity would have helped greatly to restore peace between the North and the South, the Blue and the Gray. We are reminded of Goldsmith's lines: As some tall cliff that lifts its awful form, Swells from the vale, and midway leaves the storm: Tho' round its breast the rolling clouds are spread, Eternal sunshine settles on its head. Page 52 R.H.S. -' ROXBURY ECHO 19i,6 .qgy-, L -+- To most of us, Lincoln has been described as a homely man. His pictures may seem homely. There are some men, however, who have studied the features of the great President and have made it possible for us to realize the extraordinary qualities of Lincoln's features. There are in the world two classes of students, at least, from whom the grace, the attractiveness, and the beauty of Lincoln are far from being hidden by something which causes many persons to consider Lincoln homely or awkward. These two classes of men are the biologist and the artist. Biologists say there have been in the tide of time only two or three hundred men who may be regarded as great men. Of that number, not more than one hundred are considered the greatest men. From these one hundred, biologists have selected about a score who have given the greatest service to civilization. In this search, a conclusion has been drawn that except Christ, whose living likeness is unknown to us, Abraham Lincoln, by every just esthetic law, was probably the most beautiful man the world has ever known. Of the truth of that statement there is little doubt in the minds of most artists and sculptors. While living, Lincoln was a true example of democracy. I-Ie was nature's supreme statement of America. To common humanity he is a savior. The story is told of a negro mother who stood on the street as Lincoln's funeral procession was passing, and held up her little child to see. As Lincoln's casket went by, she said: Son that ma-n died that you might be free. Some of the world's greatest artists and sculptors have spent years in study- ing the life mask of Lincoln. Every one of them has agreed that it is the greatest figure he has ever studied. Borglum believes that the beauty of Lincoln will be discussed long after Napoleon is but a name. It seems a paradox that a man regarded as a homely person should prove to be the greatest man who has ever lived, except Christ. The very secrets of Lincoln's success were written upon his countenance: his tenderness, his sym- pathy, his kindness, and his patience with all his fellow-men. WILLARD W1LLETTs.

The first game of the season ended in a victory over Wharton. c , if: The three following games were against heavy, fast, and experienced ' teams. Although Morristown Prep. triumphed over Roxbury, Rox- bury made a score. The touchdown scored by Roxbury in this game was the only one scored against Morristown during the season. In hard-fought games. Butler won l2-O, and Boonton 6-O. Roxbury's line defense was almost impregnable and both teams scored by forward pass method. Following these hard-fought games came a two-game slump. The team could not get started, and went down before Rockaway and the undefeated Hackettstown team. ln the game with St. Bernard's Prep. the team recovered some of its former strength and the fighting spirit, which had never entirely abandoned them, seemed to return. The defense was so strong that twice, when St. Bernard's recovered the ball near the goal line, they were held for four downs with a few inches to go for a score. The game was won by the margin of a drop kick, a beautiful kick made by Bioren from the 35-yard line and at a difficult angle. Page 58 T R.H.S. ROXBURY ECHO 19a,6 milf 4- The outstanding game of the season was that in which the crippled Roxbury team, with five substitutes in the line-up, faced the strong and experienced Dover aggregation. The lighter team contested every inch of ground. During the last quarter they completely outplayed their opponents, holding them for four downs and then carrying the ball on a seventy-yard march, which ended over the goal line. VanLuvender's broken-field running. Pell's passing, kicking and running back kick-offs, and Segur's and. Alpaugh's defense work were outstanding features. Bioren scored the touchdown and the extra point. . After a week of practicing new plays, with a completely reorganized line-up, the Varsity defeated the Alumni 12-0 in the annual Thanksgiving Day game, on a snow-covered field. A Captain Emmett and Captain-elect VanLuvender were selected by the majority of the football coaches in the county as second choices for half-back and end, respectively, on the all-county team. The 1925 season has been a season of successes and failures, victories and defeats, but every game, regardless of the outcome, was marked by the out- standing fighting spirit and good sportsmanship of which the players on all Roxbury's teams can boast.

Other than two letter men, there were very OYS' basketball practice started late this year, but the large number of few experienced players. Appell was elected captain. The Hrst game of the season, in which three full teams were used, was a victory for Roxbury. Two other victories followed, one over Wharton and the other over Newton Academy. Roxbury lost close games to Rockaway, St. Bernard's, and Newton Academy on their home courts. Rockaway defeated Roxbury in the Whitney Cup games. The hardest fought game of the season was the Alumni vs. High School game. For over three quarters, neither team was more than a few points in the lead, but in the fourth quarter the experience of the older players stood them in good stead, and the game ended in a victory for the Alumni. Only three letter men will graduate in June, and there will be six letter men from which a winning combination can be chosen next season. WILLARD REGER, Athletic Editor. Page 60 Q5irls' Zgasheihall T HE Roxbury girls' sextette of 1925-1926 was one of the outstanding Q girls' basketball teams of the county. There was a large number of candidates from which winning material could be selected. Troxler was elected to lead the team. DeGraw. Raas, McWilliams, Veigel, Troxler, and Elizabeth Carey made up the team. Helen Carey. Watts, Hilts, Brodeen, and Groondyke. the substitutes, played occa- sionally. Each section was a team by itself, and with the three sections work- ing together. defeat was impossible. The first game of the season was lost to Wharton. Four other games were lost: by three points to Wharton, two points to Dover, one point to Morris- town, and one point to Hackettstown. The four teams named won on their home courts. During the last two weeks, the team won six games in succession from the following schools: Rockaway, C. C. I., Newton High. Morristown. Dover, and the Alumnae. Every game was an exhibition of perfect shooting, passing, and guarding on the part of the Roxbury players. Troxler, with either Helen or Elizabeth Carey. formed a forward combination which was fast, clever, sure-passing and sure-shooting. Raas and DeGraw stopped almost every pass that came their way, and if a pass happened to slip by them to the opposing forwards, Veigel or McWilliams usually intercepted it and sent it toward the Roxbury goal.

Captain Steward and seven other letter men. with about twenty-five new candidates, constitute the squad. Roxbury is confident of success for the coming season.

This implies that someone must devote a great deal of time and thought to this work, and consequently, Hall contributions will be gratefully received. The idea also brings up the question, Who is the outstanding alumnus of R. I-I. S. from any point of view? Your comments in response to this are solicited.

All suggestions and inquiries may be addressed to the undersigned, CARREL C. BRYANT, 1916, Landing, N. J. I-IE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION this year can add events of interest and I importance to their annual report, for in the fall there was a football , game and at a later time the Alumni took another stand in the field of athletics, namely, on the basketball court, where they met a kinder fate. A Christmas get-together was held in the gymnasium and a goodly number participated at a meeting at which oflicers for the coming year were elected. The particular oHicers are: President-Blanche Troxlerz Vice-President-Leona I-Iaslam: Secretary-Effie Lee: Treasurer-Roy Utter. These showed their interest by beginning a live campaign for dues and. at a meeting held at the home of the Vice-President, the success of this drive was deinitely shown by the announcement that a total of one hundred thirty-three dollars had been raised. This is evidence of the spirit of at least those one hundred and thirty-three members. Looking into the future. the Alumni are working toward a big reception, June twenty-fifth, for the Class of Nineteen Twenty-six. and it is to be hoped that every alumnus will feel a personal urge to mingle once more with his classmates as in his student days at Roxbury.

The Committee of Fifty, a business men's association of Dover, has found it impossible to allow the ROXBURY ECHO to solicit advertising from the merchants of Dover: but on the other hand they allowed another school to do so.
