I looked up thrilled to see A shower of pinkftipped apple blossoms Half obscuring an azure sky. Every poignant thrilling scent Makes my heart swell afnew with Ioveg Love for lilaes, pink and whiteg Love for pinkfmisted garden gatesg Love for dewy petalled apple blossoms, And love for birches, slim and white. Yearning for nature, Harmonies in pink and white. Edith Meyer Ev IN THE SPRING Apology to Willialxi Martin, author The Apple Blossoms Have you ever walked along ' In the Spring, in the Spring?

The Senior Class of '30 presents Scraps, with a little fatherly pride, respectfully dedi- cated, thefinal product of its editorialhlaf bors. We have produced three previous numbers, and altho we did not realize our ambition toput out' an eight -page paper, we feel that we have been successful insofar as literary value is concerned. I I We are including two innovations: individf ual pictures -of the Senior Glass and a sec' tion devoted? to the underclassmeng We hope our -effort at underclass fraternalism is appref ciated. ' Q. I , Judson Benjamin I I EDITORIAL why do we auf L'scRAPs ? why do we have a paper at all? It uses up much valuable time and takes a lot of trouble to put out. ' But it's worth it! Not one of the minutes we spend on it is wasted. Every one is counted in 'experience and pleasure+pleasf ure derived from a thing done, not perhaps tor perfection, but toiithe best of our ability, and that is what counts. ' This year we have outfdone all previous Senior classes in the history of Rye Neck High School by editing four edtions of SCRAPS of which,.we printed two ourf selves. The first appeared as a travel numf ber, including poems and articles on travel. The secondiwas. given over 'principally to school notes. Much praise was heard over our third edition,,especially, which was def voted -almost entirely .N to deseriptionsrof the most interesting historic spots of Westchesf ter County. .. . . iAnd now we come tolTlHE 'SGRiAPS 'of the year, the June year book which you are now reading.

Even you have had experif ence with hiccups., Don't dare deny it. In this article I shall endeavor to expound my own personal theory of -hiccups, their na' ture, source and circumstance-as attained through practical .experience. A hiccup, as found in the dictionary, is a short, catching sound due to spasmodic conf traction of the diaphragm and windfpipef' It is more than this, it is ga curse to mankind. Biologists, mathematicians, chemists and doc' tors have failedtin their duty to humanityg for search where you may there is no work which treats on this great-and serious subject of hiccups. They comewhen they will and leave when they may. You either turn blue in the face trying to swallow nine gulps of water without breathing, fone usually gets to about the eighth.-and chokesj waiting for some kind- friend to surprise you with- a fine thump on the back. -,I think this is to thump the diaphragm andfwindpipe back into proper working condition. If neither of these works, the best cure, is to just hiccup away until thehiccups are tired of hiccupping. This malady is usually followed with a queer inner feeling of giddinessior embarrassment, all dependent onthe time 'and place in which they occur. A H ' I But hold! Do not flatteryourself on being' the only one who gets hiccups-dogs have themg but as they are quitepincapableof say' ing oops or excuse,me ,after each one, they usually crawl underpthe table to enjoy them in solitude. Closely related to the hiccup is that catch' ing of the breath which follows a good cry. This also has been attained through pracf tical experienceg but along with the new sen' sation, there comes-a feeling of satisfaction or self pity, rather than of giddiness or embarf rassment. Like the dog's hiccups, it is usually enjoyed by oneself-but not under'a -table. Now the lesson to be learned from this little, discussion, gentle reader, is never to op' pose the Fates. Julius Caesar and other great men did it. and received death as their ref ward. They all suffered from hiccups, but failed to take a lesson fromvthemg for strange things may happen-just as hiccups dog let them have their own wayfjust as the hicf cups do-and maybe, perhaps, they too will pass away-just as the hiccups do. Victoria Maxwell , POETS AND SLUGGARDS He sat there sunning himself, in the new born virility of an early summer sun. He was seated upon the green-sward, his back rested against a habitation of the strangest' sort-constructed of every conceivable mate' rial that might be found upon a virgin mounf tainsideg oddfshaped stone, twigs, limbs, and hacked logs, stuffed in between with green moss and gray, weatherfyvorn! grass ,of last year. thin stackgrose ,incongruouslyat a rakish angle from the. thatchedjroof, from which trickled a .straggling line of smoke, undisturbed by air currents, . One hand of the man rested .upon the tousled. neck of his dog, which seemed as content to drowse in the warmth, contem- plating lazily in the pleasant lassitude., as His gun lay across his lap,,its worn contrasting dully with the carefully .oiled brilliance of the barrel. It was pleasant to sit thus, to thinkof nothing, and content with- everything. Now there are several reasons Awhy a man should wish to be alone. As this one was: for companions his affectionate dog, as tousled as himself g his gun, which he treated with the passionate care as one would her nrstfborng and the.tall, rugged trees, now silent, save for an occasional sleepy twitter. .The urge of the hermit may drive a man into the wilderness: quitting his fellow men for some ideal which has -inspired him with terror of the world's wickedness. But this man, was he a hermit? After all, a hermit is, in a way, a sort of fanatic. But there is not the fire of an unhealthy ambition for salvaf tion by his withdrawal -from his -sinful brothers in his eyes., lndeedfhis- eyes are calm, and filled merely with the agreeable philosophy induced by the languor of late spring. , 'A A . Page Five Perhaps, his mind has been captured by the unruffled serenity of such a tranquil exisf tence. XVhy hurry? it is bad for the health. Here are no grating sounds to disquiet the mind. For the screech of brakes and the shrill of the policeman's whistle, he has but the caw of a distant crow and the vexed clamor of the jayg for the thunderous rush of the engine -over rumbling tracks, the tinkle of an unobtrusive brookletg for the terrible racket of the headachefdealing riveter, the woody ratftatftat of the woodpecker. ' Maybe the man had too many relatives, Maybe his business irked him exceedingly.. Maybe he isa poet. God help him if he is not at leastiin part a p0Ct. If he were, we might call his profound lethargy contemplaf tion, if he were not, we must call him a slug- gard. Poets and sluggards, it seems,'enjoy for suffer?J pretty nearly the same tribulations. They are both cursed for their worthlessness, until they are gone. Then the- sluggard is forgotten, and the poet sometimes placedlupf on a high pedestal. Sometimes, he too is forgotten. - H We return again to our hero. He must be either poet or sluggard. But how are we to teiimvhich? - Where lies the keynote to 'his character? At present, he seems strongly un: inclined to- pour forth any poetical effusions. The insane hut, the dog, the gun-ah! the black gleam of its shiny barrel has caught our wandering eye. The .dwelling might bea sheep fold, the dog, is just a dogg but the -gun -what care, what tender nursing has cleaned its shiny face, and tended its muzzle! No sluggard ever owned that musket. Ah-our hero is saved! A ' if I 'Judson Benjamin . NEws Extra! Eiitralu, cried airagged little boy. Read all about the big train wreck. Paper, Mister? It's my last one.

' ' Yes, I suppose so, but 'Ma' said if I brought home lots of money tonight, we would go to a 'talkie' after supper. : Be sure to have a good time. Goodbye. This boy was the typical' newsboy. One among hundreds of shrewd youngsters from the city slums who help to put bread into the mouths of younger brothers and sisters. Whether they sell a large number of 'papers or a small number depends upon the news of the day. Many successful newspapermen began their careersa in just this way. Even on' this first step of 'the ladder, their eyes glistened when it was'whispered that their paper had been lucky in getting a catch ahead of the other papers. Gradually they had risen in this great game until they reached their present positions. iWhat then, does their business depend upon? 1 Nothing more or less than news M L ' ' Why did the Persians build that great road from Sardis .to Susa? .They 'did it to connect the two principal cities of that vast empire: in order that messengers might travel more swiftly with news of their armies. The great' est roadfmakers of history, the Romans, built a network of roads throughout their empire for the same identical reason? The swifter the news of the provinces could be carried, the better the ruler could 'govern the con- quered territoryf e 4 -Jr 1 fDown through the ages,eman has been conf tinually bettering the means of communica- tion until the present day, when we have those great carriers of mail such as the loco' motive, the 'automobileland the aeroplaneg we have also the direct carriers of news in the wireless, telephone, and the more recent radio. By merely' pulling a knob of this in' vention we receiveknowledgeof happenings while they are going on or immediately after. Our grandmothers were apt to tell us that bad news traveled quickly but good news took a slower pace. Now, news, whether good or bad travels hand in 'hand' in the race over the air or through the press. Clemana Parker SPANKINGS! There's nothing warmer than a spanking, spiritually and physically. Spiritually, it is a warm memory of happy, young, helpless days. Physically it is the momentary heat of the sore and red spot to which--the hand or the back of a brush was so rapidly applied. Page Six lt is so impressive. I reckon that it is the reason for the establishment of such a sting' ing punishment for childhood offenses. As a matter of fact, the lessons which I remembered most readily were the ones which were accompanied by their worthy partners, spankings. Since I can well remember two lessons, one can-conclude that I have had in all, two spankings, which-were warm enough to be remembered. The 'first spanking was to rid me of the habit which I had made, never to be willing to leave an afternoon party at the time the maid came for me. The second spanking taught me not to associate with cerf tain children when I had been forbidden to do so. This lesson belongs to the far reach' ing subject of disobedience. And .so later in life, the real lessons are taught by radical means. An ofhce boy real' izes how badlyhe wants to hold his second job only after he has lost the first one. There's a spanking hefll never forget. in 1-gi Jeanne Egger 'NEWS When we see the word news we generf ally associate it with reporters, because of the simplereason that if there are no reporters there could be no news for it would he ancient history by the time it 1'C3ChEd.ilIl'1C public. 4 Since early times reporters have done their utmost to get a scoop and bring the news before the public, The most famous reporter of early times in this country was Paul Revere although heaused a different method to get the news to the public than is generally connected with -reporters. The radio is a new means to getting news but it will never supplant the newspaper and even in this field we End reporters. Floyd Gibbons, famous war correspondent, used this method of broadcasting news and in a more forceful and interesting way than can ever be found in the column of a news' paper. V The news must get to the public as fast as possible and since early times reporters, al' though they were not considered as such then, used the fastestpossible means of get' ting the news to the people. - - , - john Donnelly NEWS Speed is the watchword of today, espef cially with the American people. The people, industrious, everything goes humming along at a high rate of speed. News, nct to be outdone, uses every convenience at hand to make its way around the world. When one receives news today, either through newspapers, letters, telephone, tele- graph, cable or even wireless, it .is hard to realize how slowly news formerly traveled. Now, the premier events of the world are brought into our very home by the news' papers delivered early in the morning by a newsfboy and served, with breakfast as part of the meal like the cup .of codec or ham and eggs. - Formerly news took days, weeks and even months to travel. In America, when the thirf teen colonies were English possessions, it took several vessels to cross, the Atlantic ocean and bear news to and from the Colon-ies,.and Eng' land, the mother country. . . - To the cosmopolitan lifeathat is lead every' where tcday, except in the very primitive countries, news is the pulse, the heart and the blood that' keeps the world moving. XVithout the dreary impulse of news and -the search for it, the world today would lwefvery much the same as it was hundreds of years ago, each one living within one's own little sphere of activity and knowing nothing or cafring nothing about what went on outside of it. Doris Offermann BLACKBOARTD ERASERS When one enters a sehoolroom hc does not at once notice a very important piece of equipment. It is one that plays an im' portant part in school work and yet goes un- praised. This piece of equipment becomes white with dust and then receives beating for its excellent work. Q The blackboard eraser has never been or never will be glorified as has been the Amer' ican girl. It is destined to hold its lowly but useful place. It has erased failures,Aremoved announcements which have served' their purf poses and has miiced them together forming a white dust, the symbol of things gone by. , .

Not a stirring epic, laid On a gory battle field, A far road, 'neath bristling shade, Rather I, of fir, concealed. Or the cloudfgazed redwoods high To my path, the rambling ways Of the South, from brazen sky To lend shelter. joyous days! Ere the roving lust has ceased, Off to icefstrewn Arctic's storm, To the gulfweed, and deceased Of Sargasso's haunted calm. To grow old, 'tis fine, at home In quiet till the last long sleep, But for me, the roads to roam- Rather I, to sail the deep. Judson Benjamin , MY HEAv'N HOME Oh cottage by the boundless sea, How tirm you stand, how cozily You're nestled back to welcome me When I'm ashore, For when away, I think of thee Still more and more. I think of friendships thou hast known, Those friendships started, bred, and grown Within thy walls of ivied stone, Beside thy hearth, And 'neath thy bowers so gently blown Above the earth. And then I'm sad that I'm away, I pine and wish that I might stay With thee until the end of day When life is done, And happiness of heav'n betray New life begun, Herbert R. Houghton, jr. PROMISES OF SPRING The Winter casts are bursting now, And buds do peep from out each bough, While brooks and swollen rivers wide Do rush their way to meet the tide. And robins perched on leafless limb Chant to the sun their morning hymn. ' Francis Beecher TO A CAT'S EYES Deep, wonderful pools of living green, In your depths is the smouldering fire Of Hate, Envy, Anger and Love. The ancient Priests of Egypt worshipped you, Calling you sacredw You turn your head, Those glowing emeralds shine upon us, You make us feel your presence, Give you our love, . You give us nothing . But those two glowing spots of light. Edward Pratt SOUTHLAND Oh! to be on the road for the Southlandf And breathing the air of the sea! Oh! to be gazing at blue sunny skies, And wandering, wandering free! Down South where the blue grass is waving, And the trees are whisp'ring in June, And the birds are happily singing, And one dances along to their tune. Not happier I than when roving along On roads to the Southland, heart singing a song! Audrey Hare THE FEVERfFAIRY The FeverfFairy sits upon my brow, Her hands are cold and chill, And thru my limbs, yet weaker now, Soft creeps a strange and deathlike still.

The boy who goes into his father's business with the idea of going for the experience and not because it will be an easy position, is the boy who will be successful in this age of business. He becomes acquainted with busif ness methods and with the business world in general. Usually when a boy enters upon his career he is not quite sure of his ability, but by working with his parent he gains a little confidence in himself. On the other hand, the losses of going into the father's business with the intention of staying there are great. First, the father is apt to carry the greatest responsibilities, leaving but a few- minor ones to the son. This leads the boy to treat the business light' ly and when greater responsibilities do rest on the boy's shoulders he is too weak to carry them. The boy does not get the chance to learn every phase of the business by work' ing from the bottom up, but rather he starts from the topmost rung and is. usually in danger of falling when the business rests en' tirely with him. He does not get a chance to decide things for himself, as he would be obliged to do if he was employed by someone other than his fatherg when any difficult problem should come up, he would immediately refer it to his parent without stopping to give it any thought himself. Some boys would feel themselves superior to their fellow workers, and would stir up a feeling of envy and dis' content among the staff. If the parent was a bit lax or careless in regard to business matters, the boy would more than likely adopt the same methods. Even if the boy was a success people would always regard him in a little paler light than the boy who rose from a position of ob' scurity. Clemana Parker Page Eleven ' Vocations PLANNING A VOCATION At the time a young man is about to com' plete his education or wishes to continue in a higher institution, he has the responsibflfty of deciding his life work. Those entering business must decide in favor of a 'particular kind. Those continuf ing their schooling must plan their profes- sions before they begin. It is, indeed, very important that a young man should know what field he would like to enter and if he is in any way fitted for it. A person fitted for the work of a lawyer should not en' deavor to Abe an architect, unless he is also gifted along that line. In that case it ref mains with himself to decide. Onelmay have a specific 'program he wofild care to follow. If 'he has, then everything he does can be ezrecuted for the furtherance of his plans. ' When one watches a plane, whose pilot has no particular place to go, it seems that the man' at the controlslis lazy, but when we see a plane llying true on its course it reprcf sents determination and labor on the part of pilot. Soit is with a student who has made plans forithe future., X u V N John Ehrblir COMMERCIAL ADVERTISING A, Advertising is a subject of universal inter? est to everyone. No matter where we go or what we do, we see the results of great, arf tists. I V -In the past advertising and advertisements were dull and unnatural, and although they were looked on then .as beautifuland interest' ing, a-re not to be compared with the ,paves of today which are real works? of art eiref cuted by- artists who do it as means of livelif hood. Consider some of the most outstanding adf vertfisements such as those illustrating travel. Let us pause for a moment to glance thru some of' these pictures. The Santa Fe region: a bronze colored Indian standing rigid as a sentinel on some glittering cliif of the Grand Canyon with pale lavender clouds in the distance 'while the turbulent blue water be' low laughs at the sun chasing ghastly shaf dows up and down the Canyon. Perhaps we're in Africa. The dense green foliage of the jungle and crystal streams that reflect the images of yonder mountains. Then, too, we see Japan, an impressive stillness prevails. Trees, air and water' are still. Tea and coffee groves on gentle .slopes casts their shadows on the water below, while a solitary swan glides its silent way over the surface, making ripples that break the monotony. Artists have depicted these pictures for 'us only thru their utmost abilities, which are most beautiful and naturalw ' A Is it not easier -to see now, why advcr' tising as an art will never die? Une never tires of pictures, whether they be old or new. They are a constant source tending to bind people in all 'walks of life closer tc' gether, cheering many as well' as interesting those young minds who long to be:rme grcai artists. ' Q C I 'K H ' ' 'Francis I Beecher PHYSICAL EDUCATION' ' Physical Education is recognized and ac' cepted in every good school program of the country. Thirtyfsix states have, and others are considering, laws requiring Physical Edu' citation to be taught in all public schoolsfand most schoolsland 'colleges' now reqtrre it-for graduation. This -has increased the demand for college trained men to teaeh sports and direct gymnastic work.

Houghton Page Twelve FCRESTRY AS A PROFESSION Of all the professions, old and new, that are in the reach of students of ordinary cirf cumstance, I think. Forestry is -the best. It is no doubt the most healthy, because it keeps one out of doors and gives the benefit of observing nature as it reallyfis and not as' it is written about. This business of Forestry is also very profitable' althijugh it'is only a newly developed industry. A ,Forestry started .in ,the time of President Roosevelt, who advocated a policy known as Conservation. This provided for the pref serving-'of large tracts :of woodland which were seemingly going to waste. So the pros fessionxof Forestry was, instituted. At 'first it applied only to general Fdrestry, which was merely the taking care ofuthe tracts, planting new trees and seeing that no lumf ber was needlessly wasted: now the term has a much larger scope. A young man may spef cfalize in the making of pulp and paper, landscape gardening or in any other of the manylines whichare giyen, inhcollege. , Someone may argue that.,this'1ine .is too neyg and that it .could -not be every worth while -because, offthat fact. This factis muah in its favor. Being a new profession, there are not many people in it and therefore there are a great number of openings for the young man who has the necessary education to fill them. The Government also offers many op' portunities to young men to 'take positions as managers of parks in large cities or.on their extensive tracts of woodlands' in-the west. Then when -a person arrives in the college he is advised as to which particular line he is interested in. The work at college is so enjoyable and practical that I am sure every real boywould like it. While at college, the young man- is sent to nu-merous camps ,at which he attains the experience to become an experienced Forester. Coming to the conclusion that Forestry is the most healthy of all professions and that there are a great many openings and that it is progressive, how' can any one doubt that it is a business worthwhile entering uponj - V- I Albert Langworthy ' HORTICULTURE A person entering' the florist business should make out very well. Itsis a necessary profession, and, .when Once started should prove. quite remunerative. Although very few greenhouse ownersgare college graduates, one who has completed a college, course in floriculture has a great, advantage over,-the person who starts at thenbottom and gets the experience but very little theory.. It is a much easier matter to make a suc' cess of a greenhouse after having acquired the theory in college because a great amount of' actual work goes along with it in most universities. , E h I K , As for the benefits, one is out in the open most of the time and is not confined in ,ii stuffy office. This will 'help to keep a per' son in good physical Condition. Working around flowers appeals to a per' son's. sense of beauty,.2LI1d One is never so hippy as 'when puttering around in the earth. Vernon Church ' ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING- A If a gioungsman is mechanically inclinedi he should analyse hrhisi inclination' and dis' cover, if possible, just what lineiof niechaiiif cal work he wishes to do, and the possibilf ties of a future in that line. ' ' If he cannot decide between several lines, which include electricity, it would be well for himi to choose electrical engineering. The possibilities for a'man with an electrif cali-education is almost unlimited. Today needs are changing rapidly to electric ma' chines and instruments. In the household we find the electric radio, fan, iron and many cooking utensils. 'In the 'Vehicles' industry, some trucks and autbmobileisf for light powered traveling are being powered by electric motors. The above named electrical machines and instruments are not foolfproof and are not IOOQQ perfect, so there is a big demand for men who understand electricity, and -those who are willing to learn.

Page Nineteen - WELCOME On behalf of the Senior Class, I would like to welcome the parents and friends of the class here this evening. I am also very happy- to see many of 'our Alumni and I hope they will sympathize with us as they have alf readyfound 'out' how tit feels to be up ont' this stage for' the last time. I would also like to extend a cordial welcome' to Mr. Belf lows, the members of the Faculty and the Board of Education. According to the law of averages, there are are always a few flaws in everything that seems perfect. But may I add that our Class has defied this law at that all members of our Class are both' intelligent and dignified stuf dents. This may sound a bit exaggerated but it really is not. Look into the sunny' and smart faces of all of us and you can see for yourself, that we are all we say we are and perhaps you will see some remarkable characf teristics in us that we have not discovefedf If so, please do not tell us because we area already weary from being praised so much. Of course we are modest and wonitiadmit it but the praise of our fine work will reach your ears from lips ofiothers. Although ive have attained all bf our'honors through our own. ability, we don't desireito be too selfish' so we will thank Mr. Bellows and all :the members of the Faculty for their fine work in aiding us throughout .our high schgol careers. , , t It is my very sad duty to inform you that there will probably be no Class Night next year or if there is any it wo,n't be worth seeing. You wonder why? Well, I'll tell you. Those who are juniors nowg and will be Seniors next year,if they pass their exams, have never done, anything successful. How- can they ever expect to measure -up to,,Aus,, As I think back over our remarkable record, how wcll we have accomplished everything we have attempted, I also think of the ppor struggling Juniors. Where, we have succeed' ed they will ,fail. ,Oh Juniors, the pitfalls before you are all too numerous for aclass of your meager ability. Let our banner ever be your guideg ,take care of it, look up to itg andplast but not leastgrememberithat we, the Class of '30, are your mental and physical superiors and that you are ,trying to follow in our footsteps. Of course it is my natural supposition that you will fall far short of your mark, but all we can do is to wish you the best of luck and warn you as to what hardships you will have to encounter. In closing I would like again to thank Mr. Bellows, on behalf of the Class, for his fine and untiring efforts in helping us along through our four years of high school work. I would also like again to thank the Faculty who were ever on our heels to see thatour work was always prepared and to give 'us little bits of advice that helped put the finish' ing touch on our high school career.

Beecher THE IRIS Of all the groups of flowers found in both the cultivated and wild forms, the Iris is perhaps the most truly democratic and yet the most dignified. The word Iris is the Greek for defied rainbow or robe of many colors and is certainly no misnomer when applied to the Blue Flag or Fleurfdeflis which is the most common of the family. It shows a fine, appreciation in variety of tgue colors, texture and beauty of blossom. The Fluer' deflis which is the flower of chivalry, says Ruskin, has a sword for its leaf and a lily for its heart . , The longest cultivated of all flowers is the Japanese Iris which flourishes in Eastern Sif beria and Japan. The colors of this particuf lar member of the family- run mostly from white through the purples to the most un' usual and yet the most astounding of all, the Black Jap. When the young and pious Cru' sader, Louis VII, adopted it for the emblem of his house, spelling was scarcely an exact science, and the Fleur-de-lis soon became corf rupted to its present form. Doubtless this Royal flower was the white or black Iris but since li is the Celtic for white there is still room for another theory as to the origin of the name. But let us not ponder on the name and the flower itself, let us rather investigate its significance in mythology for this is what its sight and name convey to us. I If we retrace our steps in literature to the works of Homer, we find Iris represented as the messenger of the gods, the attendant of Juno and the mediator between God and man. The Ancients looked upon .her as the guide and an adviser, They believed that the rainbow, the brilliant trail left in the sky by her many colored robe, was her sign. It was Iris, they believed who charged the clouds with water from the lakes and riverg and when her bow appeared, they welcomed it as a sign of rain to quicken their crops, and they saw in its splendor the reflection of her presence.

' ' ' ' George Fitzroy Page Tweritydiour ORATIONS ON THE CONSTITUTION THE ADAPTATION OF THE CONSTIf TUTION TO THE CHANGING NEEDS OF THE PEOPLE g Humanity ever has progressed. History is the record of its changes. Its needs were not the same at the time of Adam as at the time of the French Revolution or the Amer- ican Civil War. Altho the Romans may have been concerned with trade laws, woman' suf- frage bothered them not a bit. We may have the traffic problem to deal with, but the band of motley beggars that filled the streets of Rome never dreamed of mobbing the streets of New York. Today's requisites are not yesterday's, nor will they be the requisites of the future. -Each age has its needs and problems peculiar' to itself. ' But however different the requirements of one generation may be from another, there are always certain elastic principles which forever will Ht the needs of man. Such arc the Ten Commandments of Moses, and the divine teachings of Christ, because they conf tain fundamental laws of humanity. On ac- count of the simplicity of their general truths they have been adaptable to all peoples and times. A The Constitution of the United States may be compared with these deathless laws which have survived the test of ages. One may argue that if a principle is too universal it can not be practical. But the Constituf tion takes the universal and applies it to the specific. The first ten Amendments concern the right of man to enjoy personal liberty. They specifically apply this right in the asf surance of freedom of religion, .speech and press, right of assembly, limiting the right of search, wherein the old English maxim' a man's home is his castle is involved, guaranty of trial by jury, and delegating the powers reserved to the State and People. When our inspired forefathers presented to the eager people the majestic fruit of their patriotic labors, the Constitution, imbued with all that is noble, all of divine freedom that may thrill the spirit of ambitious man, they gave to them not an instrument stiff and rigid with the musty saws of melancholy dogma, but rather, a kindly guide, that might direct and enforce, but not chafeg that might allow freedom, but not license. For every new problem that confronts it, the nation does not have to formulate new laws and new principles. Its vigorous roots, which reach deep into the hearts of the American people, are elastic enough to let its healing flower bend its golden light to any need. As the Constitution grows spiritually, so it may grow materially. From the bud that was fashioned with it, the amendatory clause, has sprung its nineteen moly-leaves, upon each of which is inscribed the will of the people. They are the amendments for the abolition of slavery, for Prohibition, Wo' man Suffrage, and the others that were found necessary to public administration. And again, the first ten Amendments, or thc American Billxof Rights, were inserted im' mediately after the ratification of the Consti' tution because our forefathers deemed it wise to include in their document the right of per' Sonal liberty for which they had so gloriously fought and bled. , The chief virtue of this diamond of many facets lies in its implied powers. The seen' may look within the polished surface of thc gem and divine a deeper and richer meaning than is read on its brilliant face. The Conf stitution definitely states the right of the government to make treaties with foreign nations but not a mite is mentioned of its right to acquire new territory. However, be' neath the resplendent radiance of its lucid crystal emerges the softer light of a greater power, the power of implication. Thru this elasticity of design, much territory has been added to the United States, as Louisiana, Alaska and the Virgin Islands. It is upon this mighty warp, the warp of the Constitution of the United States, that the American home, the American indus' tries, and the American ideals are founded. The warp is democarcy, freedom, and equal- ity. Woven intricately among its golden threads is the woof, expressive of the needs of- the American people tofday. And stead' ily,' surely, Destiny weaves thread upon thread into the shining material as each one is needed, and plucks from it any that may be unsoundg and the design broadens and be' Page Twentyffi ve comes more beautiful and perfect. A great golden golden light seems to hover about it, and emanate from it. It is the light of truth and equity, which makes the hearts of the American People glow with true happiness and prosperity.- The Constitution is the expression of the will of the people. It directly depends upon, and -had its birth from,ithe American citizen The British Parliament has the extreme power to make or unmake any law as it sees fit, in the United States only the people can change the American Constitution. It is the American individual, taken as a nation, that is omnipotent. His will is law, and hisflaw is Democracy. , Judson Benjamin LINCOLN, THE STANDARDBEARER OF THE 'CONSTITUTION V Looking back over the brief period of our Conastitutiorfs existence, we find, outstanding, the names of many who have, in one way or another, contributed to that sacred docuf ment. Never shall we forget Hamilton or Jefferson, those stalwart .patriarchs of its be- ginnings. Nor can we omit Monroe or Jack- son who so firmly upheld its principles from the Presidency. But, when we come to Lin' coln, we must stop, for fthe- contributions he made to the Constitution are far too great to be passed over witha mere breath. . The story of Lincoln and the Constitution is not one of direct incidents connecting,.LAinf coln with the Con-stitution but one of indif rect influences and implied powers. The only direct connection -Lincoln had with the Constitution was the 13th Amendment, which was adopted during his term of office- However, by his struggle for the vUnion,. by his struggle against slavery, 'Lincoln defended and upheld the Constitution. 3- - I When Lincoln stepped into the Presidency, he stepped into a-breach that could have been filled by no lesser man than he and into-the midst of such a crisis as had never before been known -in the history of the nation. However, Lincoln was prepared. He had not gone through those years of hardships in the backfwoods for tnothing. if He had not met with all the difficulties of his life merely to-throw this hardfearned experience away. So, realizing that this must be the task for which he had been prepared, realizing that he was the only one who -could cope with it, Lincoln fearlessly met it as the task for which his life had been destined, nor did he falter once or turn aside until it had been completed. , Secession! It hung like the mighty sword of Damocles over the seething nation threat' ening at any moment to descend and to rend it asunder. It seemed that the whole nation would be drowned in the turmoil of disunf ion. The North ever held firmly to the steadfast principles of union, while the South was balanced on the very edge of separation with' the mighty arm- of slavery pulling it down on the other side. 'Lincoln prophesied, I do not expect the Union to be dissolved, I-do not expect the house to fall, but I do expect it will cease to be divided. . In his purpose, however, Lincoln was somewhat misjudged, for, by some he was believed to give attention only to.the work of freeing the slaves. He did, indeed, wish slavery done away with, but above this, above everything else, he placed the -importance of the preservation of the Union under the Constitution. ..In aqletter he wrote to Horace Greeley, he stated, My paramount objectfin this struggle is to save the Union, and it is not either to save or to destroy slavery. However, Lincoln' did believe that the spirit of the Constitution was wholly op' posed to slavery, and although it could do nothing with the -slaves in the States, he firmly asserted thatcCongress had the power to+prohibit slavery in the territories. Then came the famous Dred Scott Case. The def cision, when made by the Supreme Court, declared that Congress had no such power. Lincoln, disagreeing with the decision, said, The people of these United States are the rightful masters of both Congress and courts, not to overthrow the Constitution, but to overthrowthe men who pervert thc Constitution. . i .V Finally, moreover, when Lincoln, believed that it was possible by freeing the slaves tO save the Union, he did not hesitate to issue the Emancipation Proclamation. This docuf ment was followed almost directly by the 15th Amendment having the same principles Page Twentyfsix but now firmlyattaching them as part of the government. Afterahis death followed the 14th and 15th'Amendments as indirect ref sults of his struggles, giving the now free negroes, citizenship, representation, and the ballot- , , V Everything Lincoln said and did helped, to enforce and preserve the Union of States which he declared indissoluble and which formed a permanent -bond under the Consti- tution. His very spirit marked him as the ideal of what he called .that Government of the people, by the people, for the people. I Throughout his 'whole term of office, Lin' coln Stood by the Constitution never falter' ing in his noble purpose-to save the Union. Glory was not to ,be his.: Of encouragement he found little outside his own family circle. Criticism was hurled from every direction but Lincoln heeded not. Practically alone he struggled onward doing what he- knew to be right until .he finally reached the altar of freedom where he laid down his own life in sacrifice for his nation.

Herbert R. Houghton, jr. THE EVOLUTION OF THE BILL OF RIGHTS No power has ever been able to touch m'an's irrestible sense of justice. This nat' ural ideal which from the very start was crippled and beaten, slowly rose to its feet in the course of the ages. It is to this long process that we owe the 'liberty which to us is so natural but was to those who fought for it but a vague and untried' thing. A govf ernment of the people, for the people, by the people is the fruit of an old tree which was to grow in a dry and sandy soil irrigated now and then by a wandering brook. Let us see for ourselves what brooks came to irrlf gate this soil which has borne us our mcst prized treasure, liberty. Centuries of events have shown us that each dispute had its compromiser, each ref bellion its pacifier, and each complaint its reformist. Athens complained and reformists such' as Solon and Cleisthenes 'rose to thc occasion. -Soon they had created an assem- bly giving a share in government to the com' mon people, extended citizenship, established Ostracism, a just means of expelling oppress' ing and dangerous political leaders. A spirit of democracy began to lift itself from its dusty vault. The early development of the Roman Ref public is orfe.of a democraticrtendency, which was advocated by its statesmen. We feel that Brutus' famous speech at Caesar's fu' neral was a warning against tyranny and ex' cess of power. He meant to free the people from this even at the cost of his best friend's life! This democratic tendency continued in an' answer to the revolting Plebes of Rome. The paciiers were the Tribunes, who came as protectors of their 'rights and' admitted, them to high offices. But the bold and --profitable example .set by the Greeks and the Romans was thrust aside during the years of gloom and obscurf ity-Which mark the beginning of the Middle Ages. ' It was a period of decay. Accordingly, that- which was feeble as were the rights of man, suffered and fell more rapidly. Barbarism crushed it, the su- preme rule of emperors forbade it,- till the faint light of Christianity came to light it afnew. Its doctrines' were fair and simple So simple were they, in fact, that they did not attract the eyes of its dainful contempof raries. We today can hardly conceive the persecutions which its followers withstood. This was not a time of peaceful freedom of worship but one of narrow principles. Yet as all worthy elements do, Christianity grew and with it the doctrine that men are cre- ated equal in the sight of God. There developed- at about this' time, a sense of justice and respect for the rights of others. The guilds, which came into exist' Page Twentyfsevcn ence, served as checksto attempts of cheatf ing the public and guaranteed fair and honf est dealings in tradeor in manufacturing. Trial by jury, written constitutions, right to rebel against tyranny, were other points which were developed to some extent. just as the Christians had been persecuted so they in turn began to persecute those. who opposed their faith, They considered it a vital necessity to preserve a set common faith. So follows aperiod of intolerance in which the Church predorninated and estabf, lished the Inquisition, a radical means of dealing with heretics. . . The close of the Middle Ages marks an age of autocracy. This age brought forth a great document, the Magna Carta, which forced King John to sign an agreement to respect the variousliberties of the people, not to delay, sell or deny justice and ref strained his power of levying taxes. This document has been and always will be the vital pillar of English government. But the points of ivalor are the four great,..refvoluf tions which came to put an end to this auto- cratic government. The failure of the first English revolution and the death of Cromf well. had left England in the same condif tions. Then, happily, Parliament triumphed in the second and-glorious Revolution and in sixteen eightyfnine drew up the Bill of Rights, a safeguard to parliamentary powers. All this was but the shadow of democracy. There came a revolution, however, the one most dear to us, the same one which later encouraged the French 'people to throw off their yoke. It originated in that wild, ivast, promising, new land to which those who sought religious and political liberty escaped. What had been a shadow in Englandfibef came a living thing in this prosperous counf try. ' ' ' ' The Colonies had no representatives in Parliament, they had no voice in governmentg they were oppressed by trade and revenue laws. Their protestsgwere supported by Eng: lish orators among whom we single out Ed- mund Burke. He saw the hidden spirit of liberty and pioneer blood of our forefathers. The sentiment of the whole people. was voiced by one man when Patrick Henry stood before the Virginia assembly and said Forbid it Almighty God, Iknow not what course others may take but as for me, give me liberty or give me death . And so after many useless warning and petitions the bat tles of Lexington, Concord and many others were fought till the colonists had 'finally broken the chains which bound them 'to British Government. The T great men of America then met and wrote the 'Declaration of Independence which was but-a repetition of what had been done in'England less than Une hundred years ago in the' form of a Magna Carta and Bill of Rights. One 'by one all the states but two thrust aside their charters and formed' a constitution of their own. The narrow Puritan' doctrines and' limited franchise tocproperty owners 'and church members were wiped out and a bill of rights held firm position in each of these new constitutions .'c' ' ' 'Once more the fathers' of our country came together. timeto form a more perfect union, a strong central government, the Constitution of the United States. This great compact was, a ,gathering of .all the exf periences of Englandiand of the State Cogqg stitutions. It was greatly ,opposed by, some who feared the possibility ,of oppression. Some demanded a bill of rights, for they seemed to distrust it as they had distrusted the British rule. The demand was upheld by Thomas jefferson who has -been justly called the Apostle of the People. He looked after their interest and wished to see them express their opinion in government affairs. Surely we can place him almost side by side with our great Lincoln, in that, long before it had ever entered the minds of other men he had said, The hour of emancipaf tion is advancing in the march of time. It will come. Lincoln the great, neverftofbef forgotten man ,of the people, put this great statement into even greater action. Those were the highlights of- the develop' ment of democracy, to these- we must look back and payout respect to the great men and striving people who achieved the goal of true democratichappiness: liberty for all. Jeanne Egger Page Twentyfeight THE REVIEW MAGAZINE In this age of economy, when every minute is scrupulously put to work and accounted for, it is not unnatural that even reading matter should assume a to-the-point, terse form. This can be noted in all forms of literature: the novel, drama and short story, with their realism and absence of the flowery passages that so profusely adorned the pages of earlier romanceg the newspaper article, with its blatant headlines and fast moving accountg and last, but perhaps the most no- ticeable, the magazine article. There has been born a child of this age the magazine of reviews. It contains only the interesting, important topics condensed into the compacted, meaty form that has made it the business man's magazine. Many of these periodicals have assumed pocket size, so that they may be conveniently carried around for the few in-between minutes that a person may have for reading. Prominent among these magazines bearing out the quality not quantity principle is the Literary Digest. This weekly is pre- eminently valuable for its articles on current politics. Another of high standing in this field is the Review -of Reviews. In the smaller' editions are found,' Readers Digest, Current Readings, Forum Features, Ctiffeint Readings, Forum Features, Current Bi- Biography.

We all have our favorite characters. Now, I have a passion for Mr. and'Mrsf' and it is more than natural for me to expect it every Sun'- day in the Herald-Tribune . I was never disappointed. When I heard that Clare Briggs had died, it immediately struck me that this was the last of Mr, and Mrs . Up to this time, I had never thought of Clare Briggs nor recognized the ability which caused so many laughs. I began to realize that behind this, as well as behind any suc- cessful accomplishment, there was a working head. The charm and popularity of Clare Briggs comics is due to the fact that they are the very expression of American life. Mr. and Mrs. has material for volumes on Life in tne Suburbs or 'fThe American Home. The satire of familiar instances in which the reader may even catch an unwelcomed glimpse of his environments, is the true answer to wit and humor. Briggs had merely to look about him and record the ridiculous things he saw. He is America's Small Boy .

Now the world after twen- tyitwo performances of the Passion Play again looks with anticipation to the little town Ober-Ammergau where bearded men and long-haired women ply their trades as wood- cutters, sculptors or stenographers when they are not rehearsing. ' The Passion Play has gone thru an evolu- tion cluring its existence of three centuries. It -still preserves 'the'Bible phrases and pic- tures with few changes, but the original ver- sion has twice been rewritten bythe Ettal monks. The 'music, composed by Rochus Dedler, the village school master' in the eight- Page Twenty-nine eenth century, has been changed little. Great care is now given to reproduce scenes repre' senting paintings of Ruben, Raphael and Niurillo. The hnest costumes that can be made are used, but rouge, lipstick and grease paints are taboo among the actors. Originally the play was given in the church, then the church yard, but now it has grown to such dimensions that the per' formances are held on a stage accommodating 500 people and an auditorium seating 5000 persons.. Through the generations the people have become as skillful at acting as they have at woodeutting and similar arts. They use their talent in amateur theatricals in the intervals between the Passion Plays. The town, small and unique, necessitates the guests' leaving after each performance. Becauseiof the length of the play, eight hours, the tourists arrive the night before and then see the town, quaint and lively, which pre' serves its ancient customs and unique houses and colorful dress.fLiterary Digest. ' in Edith Meyer TO RUSSIA A NEW ALPHABET Russia's 'complicated alphabet has set her back from civilization many centuries. It has been predicted that Soviet Russia will be much better understood once it adopts the Latin alphabet. Mr. Kostenko states that with this ailpha' bet, it will be easier for the Russians to5learn foreign languages, and in this way, they will absorb the western ideas more readily. Eur' tliermore, it will aid foreign visitors to get around theicountry with greater ease. 'He also declares that the Latin alphabet has the advantage of containing fewer letters which will reduce printing costs. i ' This excellent idea of a new alphabet was first taken up many months ago by Turkey. Her plan was to get in a closer contact .with European civilization. We now await Rus' sia's move toward the adoption of the more civilized alphabct.fLiterary Digest.

BGOK REVIEWS NBARNABY LEE One of the most interesting phases of human nature to my way of thinking is that which prompts people, living in the midst of interesting and historical places to take any interest at all in them. This, indeed, is evidently the thought that struck Mr. Ben' nett when, on harking back to those me' morable days spent in the highways and by' ways of Jamestown, he received the inspira' tion to write L'Barnaby Lee . A To find a suitable time in which to set his story, the author goes back to the early een' turies when the Dutch and English were con' stantly fighting for possession of I-New Am' sterdam and the North River region. A So it was that. an English ship forced its way up the river only to be captured later with all its crew except the cabin, boy, Bar' naby Lee. Here the story begins. It is, of course, of the happy ending, ehildren's type. The boy, rambles in the woods for days and is found by two Dutch children. He lives in New Arnsterdam after the English refuse to pay for his ransom, Later his father, whom he believes to have been killed on leaving England, turns up and they go to live onda beautiful estate under the Bjririsn flag, p Bennettfs power of description reaches its height in a vivid picture of this their boy whose wish, uto be back on land to see. the dirty stones, the rocks wifrnoss on 'em and the conies in the green brakes is fulfilled in full. The picture shows Barnaby rubbing the earth between his fingers and rejoicing When he Hnds that the birdsin the land of his dreams lay little blue eggs just as in Eng' land. For a while his paradise was in' deed a paradise. The sin, cruelty and inhumanity of hatred is very 'impressively shown when the young Dutch boy rews to save ,Barnaby because he is English. The most striking feature of the .characters in this book is that Bennett not only has created many types and characters but that he has placed all these characters in times of peace, merriment and war. 'This gives us an opportunity to judge the created char' aeters and to form true opinions of them. , George Fitiroy Page Thirty ALICE OF- OLD VINCENNESM The historian and the romanticist alike, turn with pleasure to read Alice of Old Vincennes by Maurice Thompson. This book covers the main facts and most romantic incidents of Colonel, George Rogers Clark s memorable campaign on the Wabash in the midwinter of 1779. The source of Maurice 'Thompson's material was a letter in the private collection of a distinguished Creole family connected with the early life of old Vincennes. And a word as to the characters: Alice was the heroine of the town Vincennes, one of the earliest French posts on the Wabash. It was she who raised the Hrst flag and res- cued itifrom the British. We read of Col? onel George Rogers Clarke,ithe conquerer of the Wabash,'l and his thrilling leadership through the worst of trials of winter to res- cue the pest of Vincennes from the British' One ofthe most amusing characters is Emile jason, a famous scout in 'thetime of Boone and Clark.

' ' ' ' ' ' ' Edith Meyer . , l THE BEAUTY OF 'THE' PURPLE By WILLIAM STEARNS DAVIS i It is not frequent that an author achieves the double accomplishment of following his' tory in its strictest sense and-producing a vivid, enjoyable novel. With the aid of his historic theme, the delay 'of the capture of Constantinople by the Saracens, Davis has woven a delightful story of no little historic value, The Beauty of the Purple. Beiifg a professor of history, it is not un' natural that he should base his narrative on established chronicled events. His style is truly unsophist-icated, natural and vigorous. Its delight and beauty lie' in its simplicity which imparts to it a unifying strength. His writing is characteriked by a careless ease, tinged' with a subtle iroiiy, creeping in here and there. 'Even -his' most joyous and unrestrained events are suddenly mollified by Page the introduction of a fatality, mayhap de- pressing, but never morbid. He exhibits superb 'management of action, although he falters in one or two placesg for instance, at the time when the two plotters offer the crown to the unaccepting Leo-the characters' emotions during the offering and refusal appear to unreal and stageflike. On the whole, however, it must be ae' cepted as a beautiful,,powerful work, worthy of admiration. His characters go simply and unaffeetedly about their business, revealing in themselves their emotions, their fineness and weakness, blending together their lives always unique in strength of character, good or bad.

Thirtyfone MY ARTIST FRIEND America is God's country. So say many people in Europe. It is for this reason. that many of the French come over to America. One spring day, Madame De Visine set out of the United States. She boarded a large steamer with spacious salons, dining halls, ball rooms, etc, She had reserved an outside cabin with tw.o portholes. Every morning Madame De Visine rose bright and early. She enjoyed sitting in her deck chair, watching the waves. lash themselves against the sides of the steamer. The salt air strength' ened her, and many times a day, she promef naded .around the deck. This was the best way to take advantage of a sea trip. r i t Madame De Visne was an artist, She knew not whether she had better opportuf inities in France or the United States, but she was a headstrong woman and' was willing to live in the country which best fitted her. After six days had passed, land .could be seen in the distance, it was, no doubt, New York. What are those square tall things on the mainland? Yes, those tall stone structures, some perhaps Hfty or more stories high? Where was the art in building these strucf tures? No, the first impression of New York was too much for Madame De Visine. 1 She had been 'accustomed to seeing 'l'opera, Veglise de' la Madeleine, l'arc de Triomphe and other masterpieces of artfi and these buildings were mere stories put one otr top of the other to her. ii Madame De Visine, nevertheless, was happy on her trip, but she was evenvhappier when she boarded the next steamer to 'Le Havre-. - I ' - -.

RELATIONS In the foot hills of the Rockies in Canada, there is a pinefclad hill down which tumbles a natural freshet of clear, cold water., In a small, natural clearing stands a, sturdy, weatherfbeaten cabin of sweetfsmelling pine. Its rough door is open as is the only window of the cabin, for it is Springtime and the earth has just rid- herself of the ,blanket of snow. There is a lazy ,feeling in the air which is reflected by the appearance of the man standing in the doorfway.. I say stand' ing, but I might say reclining on his feet, --if such a thing is possible. His browned face was turned towards a heap of split logs that might be called a wood pile if it was not scattered about so. From the shadow cast by the woodpile, a long, lean hounfdog emerged into the late afternoon sunlight. He stretched and yawned and then slowly paced forward to his master's feet where he sat, his muzzle seeking his master's hand. For perhaps ive minutes they stood so and formed the most perfect pictureof back' woods comfort that can be seen. The pic' ture could not have been complete without any one of the three, ,the dog, his master and the cabin. 'Each belonged to the other. 4- I Adrian Reed CLIMBING . It was midfafternoon and the sun was pouring down its melting rays. Once more wesat down to rest. We were nearly there. Our eagerness drove us on and soon we heard the quack, quack, of ducks and an occasional pig grunt. Long before we had heard the baying Of hounds, and now they burst into view, theirtails whipping about as if to give them added speed. Not taking any chances up a tree we went. . When we were ,sure we were safe we looked around and above us on the mountain side we could see a thatched hut with a door hanging on a piece .of twisted vine. There a flapping of wings directed our gaze to an old man with a flowing white ,beard andua pipe clenched between his teeth. He was Sitting on a crooked yet comfortable looking chair, surrounded by apflock of ducks. At his feet was awlarge shaggy dog who occa- sionally looked sleepily at his more sleepy- 1'I13.St6I'. 4 Page Thirtyftwo Everything seemed so quiet, peaceful, and comfortable, I believe I could have fallen asleep where I was, but for the- baying of the hounds below. The old man paid no heed to our calls and acted as if he had seen the same thing everyday. Finally our yelf ling was rewarded by the appearance of a young man. He was tanned, bare legged and ragged, and walked with a sturdy non' chalant confidence that surprised us. On reaching the tree he asked no questions but merely stated that we must-leave at once and riot return. - A I do not believe that I shall ever see an' otherlyouth who acted more independently. Everything we saw pointed to the fact that they lived ,merely for the sake of living, helpf- ing no one and hindering no one.

' c i 'John Ehrbar A MAN AND DOG IN THEIR CABIN A quiet scene-one of deep reflection, a man and his dog in a farfaway cabin. The man is surrounded by queer relics about the room. The cabin is afglow with the unsteady light of an oil lamp brightened now and then by a fresh spluttering of the fire on the hearth. At this time of day relaxation is theirs and they glory in the peace and homliness of their castle. This evening the man's ' thoughts wonder to a quaint village in another land. There he relieves his early years, telling his dog, who listens, seemingly taking in every word of the tales, the times of yesterday. Now the cabin is dark, the occupants are at rest, eager for another day's surprises and so to be ready for their next period of ref laxation and reflection.

' - ' ' ' , Mary Quintavalla Page Thirtyffour JOHN BROWN'S SOUL They sat before the great fireplace, Watson Brown and his wife, Lucy. She bathed her' self in the radience, staring dreamily into the living red breaking thru its soft grey coat of ash in a thousand fascinating eyes. She was completely relaxed in the agefworn armchair, listening with all her heart to the deep tones of her husband, who read aloud under the yellow lamp suspended from the ceiling. LIt was Uncle Tom's Cabin , that new soulfstirring epic of .Harriet Beecher Stowe's, which was to raise a nation in arms, its fac- tions pitted against each other for the prinf eiple of slavery-. The very shadows seemed to listen. Outside, the wind that had her' alded the advent of dying summer had sobbed itself out into a moan, and a growingrchill snapped the Kansas air. Watson read with precision: it was evident that this was not the iirst time he had pe' rused his wellfthumbed copy. Indeed, with' in the three years they had had it, it had asf sumed a'place inferior ony to the family Bible. It was a sort of well, into which each night they steeped their minds to feed that growing hatred for the institution of slavery. Watson Brown was religious. That is, he read the Bible, and believed that which he chose, and left the rest alone. Altho he did 'not question it, he did not accept it wholly, as did his father, that stern New England fanatic, who held his Bible in one hand, and a reddening sword 'in the other. Everything about the two had in it an elef ment of simplicity, almost of destitution. The room was very bare, but it was homelike, and half-way comfortable. Comfort! A It had been a thing unknown in fWatson's child' hood. His father could be kind, divinely tender, to an invalid, and on the other hand as harsh and unswerving to the prodigal. One could see the trace of it in Watsons' face+his Stern, narrow' cleft of a mouth, his expression of purposiveness and obstinacy. Lucy had become desperate at times at this forced, needless indigence of their lives. Her lips had assumed a terseness, almost bitter at times, tho one had but to look into her arf dent eyes to see that for all his obstinacy she would not have her husband otherwise. One night he came home, an ugle gash in his cheek. A bullet-the border ruifiansf' he ex- plained. Border ruffians-those unkempt but well' armed bands from Missouri, profslavery men, fighting for slavery. Bleeding Kansas 4 had begun its death struggle.- XOn that same night-in October, 1855- Watson's father, stern old john Brown, who was then in his fifty-fifth year, arrived in Kansas. In his terse, tense, rude English he informed them that L'God had created him to be the deliverer to slaves the same as Moses had delivered the children of Israel. Kansas was in the grip of a civil war, and in this medley of fanatical, revengeful pas' sions, john Brown, earnest, passionate, ob' stinate, with hiss soul set on one- object, furi' ously struck here and there, and, no matter who- happened in his path, he crushed him ruthlessly, never stepping aside from his ar- rogant, intolerantibelief of what he believcd God had willed. L. One-day the town of Lawrence was at' tacked andburned by profslavery meng john, his eyes blazing, his jaw set harder than- ever, announced: i ' The Lord cries for vengeance. And I and mine are ever ready to heed His will. i 'This' was in May of the year, 1856, when the struggle rose to an even' higher pitch, and no man went about unaccompanied, much less unarmed. Watson, it is the Lord's will that you and I iight for His cause. ' john held out one of the cutlasses to Wat-' son, and he grasped it. ' -lnljlothiiig shall stop me, he said, from accomplishng my father's will, u And the Will of God, added' John. Don7t go, don't! You'll be killed, or you'll kill! , , N , Watson laughed, kissed her, and swept out into the night. Lucy dried her tears, and sat in-:her aged chair, with Uncle Tom's Cabin to console herself. But she flung it from her wth venom, and closed her eyes on the indignant tears that refused to be suppressed. Uncle Tom's Cabin n the -corner of the Page Thirtyfiive hearth smoldered slowly into a black ash. . . When Lucy awoke, the grey dawn -was streaking in the window. Before her squatted john, who was rubbing something shiny and metalic with a cloth spotted with gore. See' ing that she had awaked, John cast the rag into the coals,awhere it sizzled with a terrible stench, and placed the cutlass over the fire' place. There was one there now, instead of two. ,, Where is Watson? asked Lucy, rising from her chair. Some horrible light seemedto spring into the eyes of John Brown. r Watson is gone, he said simply, it was the Lord' s will, and he died-fighting for the cause! Oh- a little shrilly, and she sank back into the chair, still and unconscious. Nor was this the. end. It was merely the beginning of those bloody brutal murders of Pottawatomie, in the midst of which Lucy Brown fled, to Watson's old home in Tor' rington, Conn. V In the summer of 1858 john and his folf lowers made a raid into Missouri, captured a number of slaves, and carried them joyfully to Canada and freedom. John Brown never entered Kansas again. j Watson's family sympathized with Lucy, but she had to keep her grievance against John to herself. They respected their father much too deeply to let even the death of one of their own, tho it were of their father's own doing, turn anyone of them against him, and especially would not tolerate Lucy's com' plaints. And so she, rebuked in her grief, concealed her hatred for john, and let it grow there, deep in her heart, whereuit took on the proportions of a monstrousjthing, evil,w searing her own heart. . Trulyljohn relished nothing more than to have God put a scourge into his hands to lash the devil. And with his lash in hand, he struck, but he was blind, and knew not where was the devil, and many of those that were innocent perished. ' A At the Kennedy farm in Virginia, Brown collected, with about twenty of his followers, arms and supplies. Somehow they kept theme selves hidden from the neighbors' curiosity, until Sunday evening, October sixteenth, when- he and his little band sallied forth to assault the foundations of slavery. They marched into the town of I'Iarper's Ferry, seized various government buildings and offi' cials whom they held as hostages. By morn- ing the whole state of Virginia had been aroused. Brown took refuge with the rem' nants of his band and his prisoners in the engine house, where he was forced to sur' render to the U. S. Marines under Coloncl Robert E. Lee on Tuesday morning. Brown sustained a few injuries, but none of which prevented him from being brought to almost immediate trial. Thru the prof ceedngs he bore himself with utmost dignity. Not once did he falter in his testimony, an arrogant, conceited man, who because of his narrowfmindedness had been able to. plan and execute one of the most horrible crimes of history. He was sentened to be hanged on the second of December, 1859. Somehow, Lucy felt she should have ref joiced, but she didn't. john was too much like Watson that she could hold 'out against him at such a time as this. Nevertheless, she still hated him-a jealous' hatred, which none might share. But in spite of all her hate, she pitied him. 'f She went to see him-to enjoy his suffer' ing, as he must have enjoyed hers. He was still theisame: stern, dogmatic, perhaps a lit' tle thinner. But there was a 'difference-sub' tle, but noticeable, as if a different light Shad crept into his eyesfa more knowing, kindlier light, a littlegmoreihuman. ' It was of your own doing, she said cruelly. Maybe it was. But I shall always believe it was God's. I only hope that he believed it also. He? , Why-Watson. I never felt that he blamed me. - She raised her eyebrows, and a little of the sternness fell from her lips. But I meant you-your punishment. He shrugged, and smiled ironicallyj I do not regret it. I am worth incon' Page Thirtyfsix ce-ivably 'more to -hang than for -any' other purpose. R' s W ' - '- When shereturned home, she was smiling. Not a smile 'of triumph, but of sympathy and understanding. So he-had not been thirikf' ing of himself, but of Watson, of her. She believed, as someone later said: A ' - -- Whatever might -be thought 'of John Brown's' acts, John Brown himself was right. -- - 1 --' f ' - She saw him after that a' great' deal, thru the 'long November month. Even in spite of her resistance, she 'grew to understand' him, to see. into his deep, -rich nature, Tto respect' and pity him.

'Ayjpoint which to me shows that some school ipapers are only tolerated and not really wished for blessings,'is that a very small per cent of the eligiblescholars are contributors.

George Fitzroy A TRIP TO ALASKA The first stop, after leaving Vancouver for Skagway, Alaska, is Alert Bay. Here, -situf ated on a small island close to Vancouver Island, the Alert Bay Cannery, one of the principal salmon canneries on the Pacific Coast, is located. Other places of-interest. here are the old Indian cemetery, high on the hill under the towering pines and the -Indian village near by. ij At Prince Rupert, the second stop, are found canneries where salmon is canned and sent with large quantities of halibut from the new large cold storage plant to eastern Canf ada and the United States by way ,of the Canadian National Railways which have their Pacific terminal here. Ketchikan, the third stop, isone ofthe largest and most prosperous towns in-Alaska. The next stop, at Wrangell, is an old Rus' sian settlement. From here big game hunters set out for the inland.- Next, we see the Taku Glacier. There are two glaciers, one a dead glacier gradually retreating about eight feet a year. 'Thepother one, alive and continually moving forward into the water, is a -mile wide and ninety miles long, the ice on the face of the glacier being a hundred feet thick. ' Near the glaciers are the famous Tread' well mines where once stood the largest free' milling stamp mill in the world. Qs, 1-.-'. . The next stop, Juneau, the capital of Alas' ka, which has a population of 35500, has many places of interest.. On the side of the mountain overlooking the city can 'be seen the mine of the Alaskajuneau Gold Mining Company, the largest gold quartz mill in the world: capacity 9,000 tons of ore per day. In the Territorial Museum, another p-lace of interest, is found .a collection- ,of Eskimo Curios said to be the finest and only complete one of its -kind, in the world. . . - ' .

That is what the dictionary states as the definition of news-.f' 'That is all it means to the majoffty who read items in the paper. The report of a death, a marriage, a divorce or an accident is merely something togive us a subject for more or less disinterested conversation. ' In discussing an accident, remarks such as, What a pity, The poor child, ,'fSomef thing ought to be done about it, are in- variably heard. . That is all. But in some one spot in any degree of society, there are broken hearts or mother's tears over the victim of an accident, a child's crying because of the sep' aration of its parents or the feeling of what heaven is like because of a marriage. We may read of a railroad accident and welmay see, Only one killedfl and rejoice that the accident was not as terrible as it might have been. But, that one death is enough to be' reave a family, perhaps make orphans of young children. There is no rejoicing or gladness in that family. If all people would think, whenever they read a news item, of what it means to some' one, there would be fewer careless drivers and fewer accidents. ' Adrian Reed AN HISTORICAL DISCOVERY Some years past as I was searching through an old book, I was surprised to dis' cover an ancient manuscript lodged between the pages. As I was at a book shop in the West at the time, 'I -bought the book out of curiosity. I had frequently visited this shop but had always passed over the copy contain' ing the manuscript because of its poor condif tion. When I reached my lodging, I exam' ined its contents which were only a few rough but orderly sheets loosely bound by metal pins. To my amazement, they conf tained episodes of a youth's experiences in crossing the plains with his father to the far off State of California where gold had been discovered at the time. The first page of the text was dated April 4, 1849, and was written in airigid hand. Because of its historical value in showing the sufferings endured by the early 'settlers of this western region, 'I have shown the main points of the experiences, It follows: ' April 4, 1849-The gold fever has struck the people. Father is seriously considering the journey to the coast. if . I April 8--The farm was , sold yesterday. Father bought a sturdy wagon for the trip. The whole town is excited., .,, April 20-We are leaving today. It is now late April. April 23-The roads are fairly good. We reached the Penn line last night. News abundant. Having trouble with t h e horses. fAt this point a page seems to have been lo'st.j ' May 30-At, last we have passed the Missisf sippi. Our journey seems long. We got our irst sight of the plains last night. May 31?-We joined a line of fifteen wagons today. People are weary but hopeful. ' June 1OeThe journey is getting hardcr. The rough trails are hard on the wagons. June 20-Cur party has taken on a scout for the rest of the trip. Rumors of Indian attacks have reached the party. The men have changed their costumes for the more useful Western style. july 1fMany of the cattle have died. Buff falo hunting no longer a sport but a necesf sity. A few thought of turning back were held back. Page Forty July 13-Water is harder to findcas the year is exceptionally dry. ' A July I5-Scout ,reported an Indian band in the rear. . July 25AThe fifty redskins are still on our trail. We are doing double duty. Conf. stant watch is kept. July 27-We camped early. Expect the at- tack tonight. Some say we can hold them. We are protected byour caravans which are arranged in a' circle. The Indians have 'started to circle us.' ' - ' . ' July 29-We 'have defended the wagons. A few are lost. Two wagons were also abandoned. ' ' I ' August 3-We arereaching thefoothills of the Rockies. A Itgis colder. Food is scarpe. We are running low of supplies. i Q August 5-We. feasted today.

We have proceeded steadily for two days. December 5-At last our hopes are realized. Wexhave reached our goal.. Everyone is happy and the climate ,seems friendly., All our fears are over. .

' ' i ' James Fee 'SCVPY1 BOYS' 'ATHLETICS '30 If we judge the success of this year's sports by the teams victories, it was not such a great success, but if we judge it by the im' provement in the teams, it was a tremendous success. I i A' Because of lack of material and the' fact that Basketball requires the fewest players, this sport has proved the most successful in past years. But, this year, due 'to graduation and other causes, Coach Sherwood has had to -build -new teams inall three sports 'with nothing' but green material to 'work with. Considering this, the year has been a great success from thestanding oft gameswon and an even greater success 'if the differencein- tne 'teams' at 'the beginning of the -seasons and the end of seasons are considered. A i In football we played six games, won two, tied one, and lost three. We played our old rivals, Harrison, .Erst,f and were set back pretty badly, butafter this experience we hit our stride and tried Scarsdale in,an,,exciting game. The next week, we won the ,iirstliootf ball game in three years when we played Roger Ascham: In the last quarter, with the goal very close, -the Bronxville game' was stoppedibecause of darkness. On,Qecoration Day we looms hard game to Harrisonvrland closed the season beating' Chappaqua, zofv. 1 J ' In Basketball we averaged theisame as in Football, Lloofzi.

Of six games we won four and lost two: We :started the season in an exciting slugfest at Valhalla which we won, 14f11. Then we took our worst' beating from Har' rison, -16f3. The same- week,,,we won a wet game from Pleasantville, 5f4. We lost our hardest game to Harrison, 6l4 which proved to be the most exciting of the season. We shut out Valhalla 18f0 and outhit -Pleasant' ville acquiring 19 runs to their 3. This end' ed all school sports for 1930. From 23 .games played, we won 11, lost 1.1,N,and -tied-1.

Toastmaster Fitzroy ,then announced Mr. Gedney, Presif dent of the Board of Education, who gave an excellent speech. He said the Boardfof Education was 10022 behind athletes in Rye Neck and it was 'now up to the boys to do the rest. This made a great impression on the boys who 'at the toastmaster's suggestion gave three rousing cheers, as thanks to the Board for their support. Mr. Kuhn 'made a short address and pref sented the 41 'emblems and letters. Mr. Ayres, Mr. Bell, Mr. Howe, George Ockersf hausen and flvlr.

LAKE O' THE,,WOODS Standing on the -shore of' Lake O' the Woods, .one can see but three 'thingsw bright blue sky, towerng trees, and water, blue with. the reflection of the sky above. The forest has grown to the very edge of the lake- and- one 'tree was bold enough to make its home in the very center of the lake. -The lake is on private property and for that reason none .of the trees surrounding it have been cut downvin recent years. The small stream which enters the lake at one end is of purest spring water. In summer the frog chorus rehearses in its 'meeting 'place .on the 'nine roots of the tree in the center of the lake. To a nature loving person theirs is a beautif ful song. In the forest surrounding Lake O' the Woods are many ideal camping spots, al' though few people know of this fact. There are no No Trespassing' signs to be seen for the owner of the land has a beautiful belief inhuman nature. It would be a pity if some careless camper destroyed it. Helen Fredericksf'3 3 THE SOPHOMORE CLASS SPEAKS The class of '32 prides itself in having the largest Sophomore class in the history of the new High School. Altogether, there are now 53 dashing Wise Fools in dear old Rye Neck, and the accomplishments and records of this class deserve no little men' tion. This year's Sophomore class was the sec' ond in Rye Neck to put out a Soph magaf zine, and the first to put out more than one issue. Three issues have appeared during the school year, one in February, edited by Harold Davies and Henry Koch, another in May edited 'by Edward Wood and john Frascellag and the last in the 'latter part of june edited by Constance Pratt and Margaf ret Henderson. In' sports, the class of '32 outranked all the other classes in football and basketball pdints. Bob Rankin scored more points than any other person on the Basketball team, and Rankin, Ed. Wood and Johnnie Farrell were prominent Hgures in both football and base' ball. While it cannot be expected that the Wise Fools be as intelligent as their Senior and Junior brothers, yet in scholarship, the sophs have held their own. These are some of the accomplishments of the present Sophomore class. After reading them, perhaps you will sit back and exclaim, What a wonderful class , and 'then again you may not. But we challenge the present Freshman class to try to do better next year. Harold Raby-'32 Freshman: What are you looking at? - Senior: Oh, nothing. . THE DOLL'S HOUSE By HENRIK IBSEN When I had read a certain portion of the Doll's House I yawned and thought, I know how it will end, the way it always does. But I was really surprised, to tell the truth, I was a little upset, because the play had caused me to think. In this play a woman dared for the first time to really think and act as a person of ordinary intelligence would. And to add to that, the play did not have the conventional happy ending. The woman really dared to set aside the ordinary procedure in plays of this type. She did not swoon into her husf band's waiting arms, he did not murmur sweet nothings and tell her not to trouble her pretty head with such things next time, she did not look up prettily into his face, they did not embrace and the dawn did not come. Instead the woman turned away from her husband's waiting arms, she sat down and discussed with him their married life, much to his surprise, the audience's surprise and I must confess, mine. I went over in, my mind the things Nora had said to Torvald, her husband, and ref alized that she was right. When he declared she was above all his wife and I heard Nora's answer, That I no longer believe. I be' lieve that above all else I am a human being, just as.much as you are, I applauded vigor' ously, but I still had a faint feeling that be' fore the end of the play she would be ref conciled with her husband and remain a doll in A Doll's House . But the vibrations of that slamming door could not be passed over or forgotten. Ibsen had presented the first problem play. All over the world in the immediately folf lowing years the stages shook with the vibraf tions of many, many slamming doors. Milf lions and millions of Noras left their Torf vald's, declaring, I am above all else a human being. It took time, of course, to impress the the' atre goer that a play with an ending of this kindgwas perfectly permissible even though it did not comply with his plan of ideal end' ings. He also got accustomed to the original idea of thinking. Page Fifty Ibsen's Nora, Torvald, Mrs. Linden and Nils Krogstad step -forward, bow smile and depart leaving on, the realm of literature a lasting impression., I Evelyn Roqofsky-'31 ' 'HALLOXWEEN ' ' High in the heaven a jolly old harvest' moon in 'all its round splendor smiles down on a little town. As it is after ni-nelo'clock, mcist of the houses are dark. From one home, however, soft light gleains through theiwinf dows, black cats and witches dance upon the window panes, Now and then a burst of V laughter' leaksout andthe 'smile 'of the moon grows larger. ' In direct contrast to this scene are the surroundings. A cold wind whistfeis' in .the leafless 'trees, which cast grotesque shadows about the house. LWeird shadows, gigantic goblins that dance, race' across the lawn as a lcanswjeeps by. The long veranda is lempty except where' the shadows of fa clump of trees is cast on the floor. In this shadow a shapelessi iigure crouching 'creeps h slowly to a window and looked in on' the gay scene inside1 The faceof this figure is pe' culiar. A longnose is its outstairidinglfeatiire. Two 'brown eyes, sometimes reflecting laugh' ter, other times 'l6Yiging, twinkle, and dance. The figure bobs 'irs head and perks its ears in an outlandish manner. Suddenly he jumps into' a bush. Nearby comes the humlf of voices engaging in conversation. I A Oh, they must not find me! I'll hide here! Never will I return to that Aprisonl' No! Ha! ' Here they come! Listen! Fools they do not know I am here! 74 There, they have gone! Phew! muttering thus to him' self he crouched lower. He returns to his place at the window. Suddenly out of theldarkness two figures pounge on him and carry him away. He struggles manfully but in vain, their grip is too secure. Back to his prison he returns, escorted by the two men, their brass buttons gleaming in the moon light. A few moments later an ,glderly lady inf quires of her brother, Is the dog secure? Yes, mum, is the answer. g A DOG'SfEYE VIEW OF THE PLAYGROUND My, I am nearly lost. So many people! So much bustle and confusion. Ow! That ball .nearly hit me. Say, you boy, stop pull' ing my tail. What are those girls shrieking for? Look at the swings go! What's that bell? Where are gall the people going? iWhy, there's,not a soul here. I'm all alone,,,and anyhow I'm not being stepped on armrymore. .There's one boy going in that big redfbrick building. 1 think 1 Wm, too. Why,, the insulting creature!
