Char- acterized by his always pleasant smile, Joe is never out of humor. In our Junior Year Joe gained the coveted honor of being elected Class President, and he has filled that position splendidly. Joe’s athletic prowess and his ability to make friends has endeared him to the hearts of his classmates. We hope the luture brings you success, Joe! You surely deserve a large share of it! Orntcnt A. (EmtnrU Clem (Class Vice President; Captain, Basketball; Captain, Baseball) Sure it's his wit and his smile, Keeps us gay all the while.” Hail! The Duke of Elam! Clem’s charming manner is irresistible. I le was a leader in basketball as well as an eager player of baseball. Clem’s fighting spirit will carry him a long way in the game of life. Do not imagine that Clem was active only in athletics—his class work was Just as good. We wonder why Clem came late so often tor Assembly. Is it always by accident? Anyway, we re sorry to leave you, Clem, but—here’s good luck, success, and happiness to you! 8 (Elie Agnita 3Jean JfL Cnrtiit “Jean” (Class Secretary, Basketball) “A happy disposition and a sunup smite. These make, indeed, her lije worthwhile.” When the poet once said, “A thing of beauty is a joy forever”, he must have been thinking of someone like our Jean. Here is a lass who seems to possess an unlimited amount of gray matter—a rare and delightful combination, beauty and brains! Jean was our Secretary and indeed she discharged her duties most creditably. I ler happy disposition easily won the cooperation and hearts of all. Best of luck, Jean, in your future endeavors, and may that same cheery disposition stay with you always. iEl anor A. Dooley “Eleanor” (Class Treasurer, Basketball, Hockey) “Here's to Eleanor, with eyes of blue Here’s to Eleanor, always true!” Small in stature, but great in mind! Our Eleanor is a dandy pal and a friend worth having. She is an active participant in all sports, every bit as healthy in mind as she in in body. Eleanor’s ardent desire is to become a nurse and it is our hope that she will some day attain her goal. She knows how to mix work and play so as to produce a very, very pleasing result. Eleanor held the position of Class Treasurer, an unenviable one on some occasions, especially Monday mornings. Good luck, Eleanor! The best wishes of ’34 go with you. 9 SEljr Agnita Jjtiljn 4). Hannan Jack” (Basketball) I sit at my ease— And do as I please.” Jack’s pleasant smile and good sportsmanship won for him many friends. In all things he has tried and persevered. If you can picture a persuasive orator and a clever actor you have some idea of the real worth of our Jack. He proved his ability as an actor in our Passion Play. To miss knowing Jack is a great loss to anyone. We just can’t find out what sort of future Jack has planned for himself, but we are confident that whatever he under- takes will prove successful. Goodbye, Jack, we'll surely miss that hearty laugh of yours 1 fHattluuu 3J Collins J at” (Baseball) “True blue and always dependable, Impartial, winninyly kind, and sensible.” We’re sure our Mat needs no introduction. His pleasing personality seems to pervade his surroundings, and his happy smile was a real pleas- ure to us all. Mat’s inability to overcome that habit of blushing has caused him much embarrassment. And how he can make excuses! He succeeds in convincing even his teach- ers. Mat was an ardent supporter of our basketball team and an active player on the baseball team, and by the way, he was chief property man for the Passion Play production. Adios, Mat! May your future be happy and successful!. 10 Cljc Aynitn A. Clare Connelly Clare” (Basketball, Hockey) Eyes oj blue, hair oj gold. Lips that much oj laughter hold.” If you have a bad case of the “Blues , just hunt up Clare and you won't have it long; Clare always has something to laugh about. But don't misunderstand us, for everything isn't fun with her. She is quite capable of buckling down to produce a good piece of work. Clare is also inter- ested in athletics. As guard on our basketball team she was unexcelled. Why the sudden interest in a nearby town, Clare? We look forward to great things from you, Clare, and we’re sure we won’t be disappointed, either. iiHaryarrt HL iDaiuBDit “Peg” (Basketball) Work and dutg to her a pleasure Which she enjoyed to Jullest measure.” There may be ladies dark and fair, but this one is different—in manner, looks, and in fact, everything Her hair is black and her eyes—well, one just can't describe them, for they are puzzling to one who tries to probe their brown depths. Peg was an enthusiastic rooter at all basketball games, and in hockey she helped us on to many a victory. She is a clever girl worth knowing and a friend worth having. Peg, whatever you do, you may be sure that our good wishes will ever follow you. 11 £ltr Agnita Anna iB. Donoliu? Anna” (Basketball .Hockey) A mind at peace with alt below A heart who.ee tore doth overflow. “A woman’s crowning glory is her hair.” How many times last year was Anna tempted to cut her locks! She still has them, though. Anna is well liked in the Senior Class, hut her popularity extended to other parts of the school as well. For further information, apply E. I). Anna joined us in our Sophomore year, hut late as she was, she walked right in and won a lasting place in the hearts of 34. Goodhve, Anna, you will he sadly missed when we depart from our dear St. Agnes.’ iEltzahrtlj JJ. -Dmtohuc (Basketball, Hockey, Orchestra) “Pretty, artistic, witty, and pay. Is Betty, a little sunshine ray.” Of course, you know our Betty. Well, if you don’t, you really should for she is most generous and kind. Justly has she earned the title, “Betty, will you?” for everyone is always asking, “Betty, will you?” and, of course, Betty does! She is one of our first team basketball play- ers and has helped us to win many a game. Well, here’s three cheers for Betty. May your future he bright and your heart ever light. 12 £l)c Ayitita icstlirr i£- Dmtnljnr (Hockey. Orchestra) 'y jk fr' ’ «� I leave n hath a .rummer day. m Esther is the third of the famous “Donohue Trio.” She is one of the “seen but not heard” members of our Jpfik, 1 class rather an exception. Yet 5 SsiV f ■ I Esther is ever ready to share a joke and liven things up. She has added U ' I her talent as a violinist to the Or- chestra, and indeed she will be much missed now. Although Esther’s am- bition at present seems rather embryonic, without a doubt she will gain success in whatever profession she may choose. Good luck, Esther! ittaryarrt HI. Daffy Peg (Basketball, Hockey) Open-hearted, rank, and Jair, Here’s a girl without a care.” The first thing we hear every morning is Sister’s, “Is Margaret Duffy present?” Most of the time the answer is “No.” Margaret has a peculiar habit of missing the bus, or is it that the bus doesn’t wait for you. Peg? The noon hour is very much brightened by Margaret’s cheerful giggle and pleasing stories—what would we ever do without them! The best of luck, Margaret! May your happy disposition carry you safely through life's cares. 13 SElji' Agnita tllirtnr 31- (6ianrnla “Vic” (Basketball, Baseball) “Outwardly indifferent he seems, Yet way down deep he dreams his dreams.” Here is a boy who is always ready for some fun. His personality and good nature have made him popular with his schoolmates. Many times Vic is undecided as to whether or not he should let his moustache grow, and when he finally does decide, it’s generally that he should. Vic believes in the old proverb, “Make haste slowly”, for he never believes in overtaxing his brain. Good luck, old boy, and may success be yours in your chosen career. Uorntljij A. Dot” (Basketball, Hockey, Orchestra) ‘Her smile, her humor, all enfold, A heart that’s lined with purest gold.” Dot is our “Rubinoff” and also somewhat of a songster. Anyone in the vicinity of Room 3 at certain times can hear her burst forth into her favorite song, “Smoke Gets In Your Eyes.” We must admit that she certainly has helped us tread our weary way with less difficulty by her sunny disposition and witty remarks. Dot is a charming classmate and saves the reputation of the class when we are in dire need. A sad farewell. Dot, and may the future be kind to you. 14 SEljr Agnita jjasvpli A. UCrCaitlry “Joe” (Baseball) “One who can play a jair, square game, Let’s wish him luck, and Jriends and Janie’’ Joe is one of the few in our Class who mind their own business. We don't mind saying this ourselves as we haven’t any to mind. Although Joe is of a serious nature he certainly proved beyond a doubt that he has an excellent sense of humor. He is a great jfavorite among the boys of his class. If silence is golden, Joe, think how rich you’ll be some day! iHciranrrt 4JL UlrCnnl “Peggy” (Basketball, Hockey) “Eyes oj blue, hair oj brown. Face that never wears ajrown.” A head held high—a singular walk—and here comes our Peggy. By her ambition and steady courage, Peggy has reached the top of that rickety-rackety ladder of high school honors. She also has the honor of being one of our star basketball play- ers. Of course, Peggy is very much interested in all basketball games, but . why the intense interest, Peggy? May a bright future be yours, and success crown your undertakings! 15 SIjj' Agnita fWary 3J. iWrCup “Babe” (Basketball, Hockey) “Her smile is sunny, her laugh is gag, She’s happy all the lii’e long day.” Our Babe” is the personification of youth. She is a fountain bubbling over with mirth and splashing drops of merriment, which glisten in the sunshine of her smile. Laughter bursts forth from the girls at any and all times because of her witty replies to perfectly serious questions. At last, Babe” has consented to get a permanent. We always thought she liked to curl her own hair. May you always be as happy and successful. Babe, as you were here. fHnry 5R. IflrCullmigh “Molly” (Basketball) “Pretty, artistic, sunny, and wee, Is the .Holly known to you and me.” Molly is one of the wee lassies of ’34, well known by the giggles that come from her corner of the room. Molly hails from the wilds of Malvern where the violets grow as big as horses.” It’s a shame that tripping the light fantastic is not allowed at all times, but otherwise we just couldn’t keep our Molly still. All the same, Molly manages to keep up her good work in the classroom. She’s an earnest student and if you need proof, let us remind you that her essay won the prize in the K. of C. contest. Much luck to you, Molly! 16 (Eljp Arjnita Shtfltfj 31 fHr £usk r Ukie” (Manager, Basketball; Manager, Baseball) J erry blue eyes lhat seem to say, I’m bubbling all over with laughter and play. “Ukie” is quite the master mind of the Commercials and he does his very best to make a success out of anything he undertakes. As you will agree, he is one of our outstanding athletes, and indeed, more than one “Freshie’s” heart missed a beat watch- ing the score mount under “Ukie’s ’ skillful play. He is very well liked by all his classmates—maybe this is due to the fact that he has not been spoiled by the wiles of the big city. Good luck, Ukie! WUinm 31 fHamt Bill” Happy, am IJrom care I’mjree, Why aren't you all contented like me? Bill never worries about tomor- row, but takes life just as it comes. His kindness and cheerfulness will always impress those who associate with him. Bill has the awful habit ot getting his hair cut the “Pompadour” way, much to our distress. Proudly we selected him as Editor-in-Chief of our Agnita and the result well, you may see that for yourself. May you your activities hereafter. Bill. have as much success in 17 3Tlje Aynita Anita 4$L IflDnayljan “Anne” (Basketball, Hockey) 'Happy, lovable, dependable, wise. Is ourjriend oj Hie laughing brown eyes.” Here’s a friend whom none of us will forget. Our Anne is forever singing, much to the distress of her friends. An eager leader in sports, Anne put up many a good fight, lead- ing her team to victory on the hockey field. Anne is not only liked by all her classmates, but she is claimed by all. Ne ver does she return on Monday morning without some choice bit of news for each of us as to how and wi th whom she spent her week-end. Anne, you have our very best wishes, and may Love and Laughter always follow you. (Eljoa. 31- iUmttyomery “Tom” (Baseball) Ihs is Ihe most diligent nature excepting none, He never gives up tit! the task is done.” There are in every walk of life hard workers who assume their labors in this great world zealously and per- sistently in spite of difficulty. Tom is one of these. If you should search the WO rid over it would be hard to find a more likeable and dependable fellow than Tom. Tom is the artist of our class, too, and we re mighty proud of his work. There is no doubt that he will make a splendid success of whatever he undertakes in the future, and our good wishes go with him on his way. 18 511)0 Agnita iHarte Crakes “ J arie” (Basketball, Hockey) “From ihe depths oj her dark blue eyes There's always something that mystifies.’’ Mumble, mumble, mumble! Will it never stop? At least, that’s what Sister would like to know. But Marie is not half so bad as she sounds, for she is always the first to break out in giggles (sometimes at the wrong moment) at some funny story. Marie’s outstanding characteristic is her good sportsmanship. She never becomes ruffled at anyone’s teasing, although she does send forth many blushes! We wish you the best of luck, Marie. fHilitrcft ©rruftarff “JIuss” (Basketball, Hockey) “Her lore is strong Jor everyone. Like the glowing beam oj the morning sun.’’ “Muss” is one of the silent mem- bers of our class. She is silent at the proper time, but frequently comes to our rescue when we are silent at the wrong time. “Muss has that charm- ing habit of assuming a rosy hue every time anyone’s attention is attracted to her. May we offer a suggestion? We can never forget “Muss’ ” acting in our Passion Play. We really didn’t realize we had such a talented member in our class. Goodbye, “Muss”, and good luck to your future endeavors. 19 (Hit? Agnita Anna 4R |Jitt Anna” (Basketball, Hockey) Eyes as brown as a hern , Smile that makes everyone merry.” Anna is an enthusiastic student. She puts her whole heart and soul into her work. You must admit that she ranks among the best stenograph- ers of the class. Anna’s wit has brightened many a dull moment. Along with Anna’s other assets we may also add her charm, which ra- diates through the school or wherever she may be. We have yet to see her angry or ruffled about anything —an enviable record. But often Anna has to stop and ask, “Was my face red?’’ when “someone stops to speak to her. Here’s hoping you have a large share of the world’s success, Anna! Jtfrmtrrs 4$L JJitrrrll Frances” (Basketball, Hockey) A melody blown down llie years, Woven oj laughter, love, and tears.” As soon as Frances heard that we had started to “write up” the members of the class, she imme- diately began to watch her “p’s” and “q’s”. You shouldn’t have been so cautious, Frances, because we know lots n lots about you! In school, Frances is very quiet; outside school —well, we just don’t know about that. Questions never seem to bother Frances, for she is never at a loss for answers. We have our own thoughts about what your future will be, and we surely wish you success. 20 (Elje Agnita ill- Reilly “Helen” “Light-hearted, happy, and gay, That’s our Helen, all through the day.” Helen is a demure maiden whose delightful optimism has won for her many friends. She is the possessor of those qualities which are necessary to gain the affection of all who know her. We are told that one of her favorite indoor sports is to cripple pens with rapid shorthand dictation, and if a speed cop ever saw her racing on a tvpewriter she would be smothered with summons slips. Gradua- tion has its sorrows as well as its joys. One of our sorrows will be losing such a sincere friend as Helen. IHfUtmtt 3U hrllrr Billie “In one thing does he stand alone, He has a grin that’s all his own.” “Billie” is well liked by all and is noted for his ever-present smile and ready wit. You’ll never have a dull moment with “happy-go-lucky-Billie.” Though not very big he has a swift comeback for every remark, and is always ready to fight for his rights. A fine fellow with a remarkable quali- ty of making friends. His good points are many—his faults, few. Goodbye, Billie, may the future return the sunshine which you have scattered so generously here. 21 5Iljc Agnita Stirijarft mtaser “Snitz” (Basketball, Baseball) In school he wouldn’t shout or scream, Rut you should see him on the team.” Richard is a student of high scholastic rating, plus the ability to do good among his fellow students. Richard is blessed with determination and backbone, a willingness to try and try hard—persistent, practical, plugging, “stickability and stabil- ity.” A good sportsman, he was liked by all. “Snitz” we will always remember you as a true pal, a good scholar, and a fellow liked by all. The class of 34 hopes that life will give you the opportunities you so well deserve. Dorita HL umrits “Dodo” (Basketball, Hockey) “Sweet personality, Full oj rascality.” Dorita is always on the go. If it isn’t dancing (it usually is) it’s some other lively activity. Dorita's popu- larity is due in part at least to her being one of the jolliest girls in the class. Guessing her future career presents a puzzling problem to her classmates. Sometimes we think her chosen vocation is to be a nurse, but then, if we ever heard of a Women’s World Champion (especially in a Ford) we shall at once identify her a “Dodo.” Whatever you choose, we wish you the best of luck. 99 Sllje Agnita lElizahetlj 3U HJenitt “Belly” A studious lass with zest for all the fine things in life. In our Betty we think we have a standard of all that is good and faithful and true, and we are sure that anyone who knows her as we do will heartily agree with us. Betty hails from Chatwood, according to her friends. Betty has no had habits, peculiar mannerisms or queer bywords. But do not imagine that this odd state of affairs makes her a poor sport. It doesn’t, positively! “Gracejul and u.rejul in all she does Blessing and blessed wherever she goes.’’ Jlamrs anrarrlli “ achy” (Basketball, Baseball) ‘ lie leads a calm and peacejul lije, Seemingly untouched by storm or slrije.” “Zacky” is a quiet lad of many talents. He is an astute business man wholly capable of assuming his place in the business world. He is also an unusually good dancer, an ability which he exercises at all convenient, (and sometimes inconvenient) times. Jimmie is a lad on whom we all de- pend. What would we do without him to take us to our socials. We extend to him our hearty good wishes, and our prediction that he will be successful. (Eire Agnita lEftitorials iSlertrinty 4PLECTRICITY has revolutionized the world. It has made possible within half a century, greater progress than in all the previous years of history. It has banished darkness, lightened the burden of the housewife, and become the silent partner of industry. It has torn away the barriers of time and distance, and made all men neighbors. Many great minds have contributed to the development of the present-day electric central station systems which provide our electricity. If only one name were to be mentioned, it would undoubtedly be that of Thomas A. Edison. But before and con- temporary with Edison and his wonderful inventions, a host of other electrical scientists and inventors have contributed their part. Although the electric light and power business as we know it today, is a development of comparatively recent origin, the founda- tions for it were laid by early experimenters in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In 1600, Doctor Gilbert, an English physician, conducted numerous experiments and made many im- portant discoveries but it was nearly a century and a quarter before any great progress was made by others who studied the subject. The telegraph was the final great electrical invention. It was invented by Morse in 1837. Electroplating was perfected about the same time. The electric motor was developed about 1873. Radio is a development of the present generation. If all the ma- chinery operated by electricity were now taken away, it would require the services of thirty times as many handworking people, to duplicate the work done in America. Push a button and electric lights illuminate our home as by the midday sun; an electric washing machine and electric iron help with the housework; a fan gives cooling breezes, or an electric heater radiates warmth; an electric range cooks the family meal; an electric refrigerator makes ice; or the many other familiar labor- saving appliances start into action. 24 Aijmta Today, electricity rings the door bell, tows a ship through the Panama Canal, lifts a great bridge, milks the cows, chops feed on the farm, increases production in factories by providing good lighting and ample power, lights homes and stores, even provides illumination for surgical operations in hospitals. It is ready to perform these tasks twenty-four hours of every day. Yet it was only a short time ago that the richest kings had none of these conveniences which make life easier and better at the present time for even the poorest American. Hubil?? Jrar 7JTHE word Jubilee is probably derived from the Hebrew “jobel”, (ram’s horn), which was used to proclaim certain times of rejoicing. In the Old Law every fiftieth year was celebrated as a Jubilee Year, at which time absent members of a household met, Hebrew slaves were freed, debts remitted, and land returned to its former owners. This is the spirit of Jubilees in the Church, marked by pilgrim- ages to Rome and special services there and throughout Christen- dom, the first of which is traced to 1300, when Pope Boniface VIII proclaimed a Christian Jubilee Year. It was originally intended that the Jubilee should be celebrated only once in a hundred years, but later, petitions were made to Pope Clement VI to anti- cipate this term, and accordingly, another Jubilee was proclaimed in 1350. Finally, Pope Paul II decreed that the Jubilee should be celebrated every twenty-five years, and with the exception of the nineteenth century, when only one was held, 1825, there has been a Jubilee every twenty-five years since 1450. The omission of Jubilees in 1800, 1850, and 1875 was due to political conditions. There are also occasions of Extraordinary Jubilee, as during the year 1929, the fiftieth anniversary of the priesthood of Pope Pius XI, and in 1933, the commemoration of the nineteenth centenary of the Passion and Death of Christ. The chief ceremony of the Jubilee is the opening and the final closing of the “holy door” in each of the four great basilicas which the pilgrims visit in Rome. The conditions for gaining each Jubilee indulgence are usually announced in a special bull, the main conditions, however, being confession, communion, and visits to four churches. William J. Mann Joseph A. McCauley 25 (ftlje Arpttta Salutatory of our Graduation a time when our hearts thrill with joy and gladness. We rejoice in the completion of a piece of work that has taken years to accomplish, and we are fired with enthusiasm at the prospect of what the future holds for us. This joy, we know, finds echo in those loyal hearts of yours which have lavished on us such love and devotion, and we are glad indeed to have you with us today. To you, our dear Pastor, friend and counselor, our welcome is warm and true. You have guided our career not only through our high school days but, for most of us, through all the years of our school life, and Heaven only will reveal how wisely you have steered that course. May we hope now that your devotedness continue to inspire us, and your prayers continue to guide us through all the days that are ahead. Dear Sisters, it is with mingled feelings of love and gratitude that we greet you. Strengthened by your wise precepts, and guided bv the example of your unselfish lives, we go forth well- equipped for the future, and with generous resolve to reflect credit upon the training which we have received. And to you, dear Parents, welcome, a thousand welcomes. Yours it has been to remain in the background, watching our development and waiting for the day when we should be graduated. Through your never-ceasing care, and at the sacrifice of many a pleasure, we have been privileged to receive the benefit of a Catholic high school education. We hope now to repay you in part by the wise use we make of that which we have received from you. Schoolmates, you who have traveled the way with us, our greeting is saddened by the thought that soon it will be “farewell.” To you we owe many of the happy hours we have spent here. Your pleasant companionship has brightened our way and taught us the value of true friendship. The memory of these days together will be not the least of those which will bind our hearts forever to our beloved St. Agnes. And so, to all, a hearty welcome. By your kind assistance in one way or other, you have enabled us today to reach our goal and to claim our prize. May your prayers follow us on and on until we reach that other goal and hear that blessed “Welcome” into the everlasting life of Heaven. John J. Bannan 26 311)0 A mta Class $Ioent In precious rounds of golden hours. In paths of changeless truth, With joy of truest friendship blessed— We’ve passed our happy youth. And now at childhood’s sunset glow, When pathways drift apart, St. Agnes, dear, we pledge to thee Each loyal, grateful heart. To “Semper Idem’’—motto lov'd. We’ll always true remain, Resolved that every word and act Add glory to thy name. And ever shall our banner bright. Of Garnet and of Gold, Inspire us through the days to come Thy honor to uphold. Then, hail! St. Agnes, and farewell To happy days of yore. Take now in deepest gratitude The hearts of Thirty-four! 27 Elizabeth J. Wendt (Elir Armtta Class Sftstory JIN giving you the history of this class, I might go hack into the Al early history of pre-high school days, but that is too ancient for details to be accurate, so I shall confine myself to the period better known as high school days. Then you may judge our previous record by more recent events. So, in the month of September away back in the year Nineteen Hundred Thirty, on a day that was bright, and yet dreary, a little band of forty-seven children arrived at the portals of what appeared to them a gloomy-looking castle. This castle was St. Agnes High School, ami the frightened little children, this famous class you see before you. The newcomers, after being given the name “Freshmen” were taken in charge bv the ministers of the curious domain, the Faculty. These awesome guides conducted the ignor- ant little Freshmen through winding paths which led to learning. In the valleys and hills of this mysterious place, our wondering band saw other adventurers, dignified by the names Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors. The ministers told us that we must bow to one group of these adventurers, the Seniors. Accordingly, when Hallowe’en arrived these Seniors put us to a test, but despite our many fears we all passed successfully. That gave us a little more assurance, and we began to lose that frightened look which until then had per- sisted in showing itself. Meanwhile, many of us were engrossed in the fantastic sports of the new country that we had entered. There was some good basketball and baseball material among us, and eagerly we trained for encounters with the adventurers of the other classes. Our youth, however, was no match for the stalwart upperclassmen, and our athletic record as a consequence was rather inglorious. At Mid-Y ears and Finals this courageous band underwent the trial of Inquisitional Fire, and a few were overcome by the smoke. I he survivors however, returned the next year a little more confident of themselves, and assuming an air of superiority over the incoming Freshmen. 1 low surprised we were to see that the gloomy castle had passed through one of the changes characteristic of all fairy castles. It did not seem so gloomy as formerly, and its ministers appeared not so terrible. Rare gleams of light even threw faint rays upon those tortuous paths of learning. A few of the cabinets of know- ledge opened to adventurous spirits as easily as though that had 28 Tlj? Agnita been touched by the fairy’s wand. Both girls and boys had added inches to their height and pounds to their weight during the long summer vacation. They began to make their presence felt in athletics, as well as in the classroom, and before long developed that quality known as “Sophomoritis.” This year passed uneventfully enough, with nothing so terribly exciting, and when the final exams were thrust upon those of us who were not exempt, there was brought to an end our second year in the little more friendly castle. Vacation again, and then our Junior Year. We were advanced in the castle and received pins, the insignia of our rank. We as- sumed the responsibility of a class election and began saving our pennies for the entertainment of those highest of adventurers, the Seniors. In the selection of our courses we distributed ourselves as follows: Classical, twenty; Commercial, seven; Scientific, five; and in the election of officers we displayed remarkable and mature judgment in the choice of Joseph Clark for President; Clement Connell, Vice-President; Eleanor Dooley, Treasurer; and Jean Curtin, Secretary. Some of our boys secured places on the varsity teams and sallied forth to prove their supremacy in many a fray. Our girls had also improved their style and gave the Seniors a merry chase. In the fourth year the group of adventurers, sadly depleted, for it now numbered only thirty-tw’o, was given the lofty title. Sen- iors. The members became assistants to the ministers and aided them in ushering a new group of Freshmen into St. Agnes majestic halls. Our athletic prowess reached its zenith this year, as well as our public speaking and classroom work. Exams held no terrors for us, who had weathered the storm for four years, and this year we longed for the Mid-Years, only because their passing brought us nearer to that never-to-be-forgotten night of the dinner dance. Then, in a fever of excitement, the class was accorded the honor of being introduced to those departed spirits who return each year to welcome their new brethren. For a short time, too, some of the members of the class were gifted with fairy powers. They were given the ability to impersonate peoples of all lands. While thus favored, our Senior Play was produced, and without doubt it ranks among the best that have been produced by preceding classes. No sooner was the Passion Play presented than we found ourselves facing the preparation and publication of our “Agnita.’’ Funds were low, but thanks to the united efforts of the memliers of the class, and the generosity of our many well-wishing patrons, we managed to weather the storm and publish a book that takes its place in the foremost ranks. Towards the end of the year, as guests of the Prime Minister of the castle. Father Schuyler, and some of his chief executives, the Sisters, a firey monster sometimes known as a bus whisked us into a glorious country called Washington. There we saw such magnifi- 29 (Elje Agnita cent palaces as the Capitol, the White I louse, and the Congressional Library. In this place, also, the dazzled sight-seers were shown some of the mysterious workings of that all-powerful institution— government. Besides, more and more of those mysterious treasures of learn- ing were revealed to us. Lighter and lighter grew the dark maze of knowledge until at last the brilliant sun of Commencement rose and shone upon that now-famed company of students which had entered St. Agnes four years before. Now, as we gaze upon the portals of St. Agnes, we find that the castle has lost the last trace of its forbidding aspect. Indeed, it is surrounded by a rosy glow which time will only serve to make more bright. During the past four years our class has had its place in the history of our beloved school. Today as we reluctantly make our departure, it is our hope that that history will be made still more glorious by the record of our future years. Dorita L. Swords 50 (Tljr Agnita Class JjJrnpljecy JIT was on a morning in early Spring that I found myself at last ready for the first lap of my long-looked for trip to Europe. Everything had been arranged for, and the delightful weather added a happy climax to all my glad anticipations. The trip to New York was made by motor, and I arrived there about an hour before sailing time. That hour was all too short for my friends and I to make inspection of my beautiful stateroom, and before long I was standing on the deck of the majestic “Champlain”, waving good- bye to those dear friends who had accompanied me. Very soon we lost sight of our beloved U. S. A. and I settled myself to the enjoy- ment of a very pleasant voyage which would end when the steamer docked at Marseilles. With the exception of two days, which were rather rough, the trip on the whole was delightful, and when I landed I felt the benefit of the sea air. On my arrival I went straight to the Hotel Voltaire, where I had previously engaged rooms. When I approached the desk, I was nearly swept off my feet to behold my old classmate, Thomas Montgomery, occupying the position of head clerk. Thomas was very glad to see me but was so busy that he had no time for his usual merrymaking. He assured me, however, that I had arrived at a most opportune moment. “The fates are with you today”, he said; but he would not explain anything further and bid me have patience and await the proof of his assertion. After we had exchanged a few words, I started from the desk and walked towards the elevator. When the door opened, I stood aside for the “down” passengers to alight, and imagine my surprise when Dorita Swords stepped out first. Dorita was on her way to the theatre and would hear of nothing else but that I accompany her. Of course, I was thrilled at the prospect and glad of the chance to talk over those good old days at St. Agnes. So, after making a hurried trip to my room to relieve myself of some bundles, I rejoined Dorita and in a few minutes we were on our way. I learned that Dorita had come from Hollywood and was co-starring with Mae West in a new picture, the scene of which was laid in this French city. As we walked, I noticed that Dorita was watching my expression, and no wonder; for, as we neared Marseilles’ “Broad- way”, movie lights formed in glaring letters the names of the successors to the four Marx Brothers—Victor Giancola, Joseph 31 3Ilje Arjitita McCauley, William Mann, and Matthew Collins. I thought that I could never be more surprised, yet that was only the beginning. We reached the theatre, and as the performance progressed, the music caught my attention. Dorita informed me that it was fur- nished by the Donohue Syncopators, and the vocal solos were rendered by Frances Purcell and Eleanor Dooley. After the play was over, we directed our steps to a tea-room for some refreshments. As we went I did not fail to notice a mis- chievous twinkle in Dorita's eye. “What next?’’ I wondered, and it was not long before my wonderment was relieved. We arrived at a charming little place whose quaint windows were hung with beautiful red draperies, and whose furniture, even to the little table lamps, carried out the color scheme. Here I found Marie Oakes, Margaret Duffy, and Mary McCullough, who had gone into partnership and were making a name for themselves conducting this smart little place. These girls insisted that we go upstairs to where they had a sort of ball-room, and promised us a grand sur- prise. Indeed, it proved the greatest surprise yet, for among a group of the city’s most renowned society women was our friend, Mildred Orendorff. Mildred was hostess that afternoon, and as soon as she caught sight of us she came over and welcomed us most cordially. “You’re just in time’’, she said; “I’ve prepared a little entertainment for this evening, and I'm sure it will both interest and delight you.’’ After obtaining our consent to remain, Mildred left us and we meandered around until it was time for the enter- tainment. Just before we entered the concert hall we came face to face with another of our classmates, Elizabeth Wendt. Elizabeth seemed just as surprised to see us as were we to see her, but I think that our surprise was greater when we learned that she had achieved great prominence as a woman detective. Many a society woman’s jewels had been saved, thanks to Elizabeth’s wonderful work. Elizabeth joined us at the concert, and we were hardly seated until the show was on. First, there was the music, most entrancing, with a rhythm that assured me at once it was Clement Connell’s Trou- badours. Sure enough, here was Clement at the height of fame, one of the most sought-after directors for ballroom entertainment. Then, we were nothing less than thrilled by the melodious voice of our little William Sheller, who charmed the audience with a group of “Old Favorites’’, sung as only “Billie’’ can sing them. Next on the program was a dance, featuring James Zaccarelli and Jean Curtin. These two had travled the continent and were now the world’s most famous dancing pair. Mildred was extremely fortunate in being able to secure them for her entertainment. Last but not least, there appeared on the stage another of our classmates, Richard Snitzer. Richard had made a study of the prominent SElje Agnita screen and radio entertainers, and now could impersonate any one of them. He had the audience convulsed with laughter, and you can imagine what a tremendous hit he made. The entertainment came to a close with another number by the Troubadours, and we left the concert hall, as Mildred had predicted, delighted with the good fortune that had come our wav that day. On our way back to the hotel, we passed through a beautiful park, so we decided to rest a few minutes and enjoy the beauty of the scenery. We took a bench along one of the quiet drives, and before long noticed that the bench opposite had a lady occupant who looked rather familiar. She was so intent on what she was doing that she seemed not to be aware of our presence. Soon, however, we attracted her, and who should it be but Clare Connelly. Clare had entered the field of letters, and had chosen this sequestered spot to write the final chapter of her latest book, “Great Men of Mai vern.’ This chapter, Clare told us, had for its subject our classmate, John Bannan, who was now the town's most prominent physician. We succeeded in inducing Clare to spend the night with us, and many were the tales we rehearsed concerning our school days together. Clare told us, by the way, that Mary McCue and Helen Reilly had embarked on a business career together, and were now proprietors of a fashionable dress shop in Paris. Mary, she said, was contemplating the addition of a beauty shop, and we all agreed that it would surely be a successful venture for her. The next day we were guests of Clare at a tennis tournament, in which Anna Monaghan and Margaret McCool were to be con- spicuous contestants. As we approached the grandstand, we were greeted by a familiar voice and on looking in the direction from which it came, we experienced another surprise. Here was Hugh McCusker, one of the most successful reporters on the “Chicago Tribune.” It was Hugh’s good fortune to gather the news from all over the world, and sure enough, here he was on hand to cover this famous tournament. Of course, Anna and Margaret were successful, and glaring headlines told their story in the morning papers. It was nearly time for my sojourn in Europe to come to an end, so I decided to take a flying trip to the surrounding French towns and villages. Accordingly, I left the Hotel Voltaire, where I had enjoyed such memorable days with my classmates, and spent a week or more traveling from place to place, getting a taste fo French rural life. Then, with but a few days left, I had to make plans for my return trip, so I called at the office of the Steamship Company to complete final arrangements, just inside the door was a large desk, behind which was seated the president of this famous class of '34, Joseph Clark. Joseph had entered the employ of Thomas Cook and Sons, and was stationed in Marseilles arrang- 33 Ehc Agnita ing tours for that particular section. After we had exchanged greetings and I had told Joseph the purpose of my call, he smilingly said that he would call his secretary to attend to my business so that I would have no further bother about plans and arrangements. When the secretary arrived, who was it but Anna Pitt. Anna had proved so valuable to Joseph in his work in this country, that he finally persuaded her to go with him to Europe. The day of farewell finally came and not without regret did I board the steamer for the return voyage. One more surprise was in store for me, for as I was seated comfortably in my deck chair, I turned to see in the chair beside me my friend of many years, Dorothy Joyce. She had been sent to Paris by a fashionable Fifth Avenue dress shop to bring back Helen Reilly’s latest styles. Need- less to say, my return trip was extremely pleasant in the enjoyment of Dorothy’s company. But, what was that bell I heard? Well, of all things! It was the alarm clock! Monday morning, and I must hurry to get ready for school. Margaret M. Dawson 34 Agnita iFiwrtimt of (5mternment 3K of C- $Jrizc itsany 75] HE work of the modern government runs to the very roots of life, liberty, prosperity, and the pursuit of happiness. From the cradle to the grave we are within the sphere of its activity and influence. Our births are registered on its official records, and it provides schools for our education. We cannot be married without its license, or enter any of the liberal professions without conforming to its standards and securing its sanction. At any time we may be called upon to surrender for its uses, a large share of our property, in addition to ordinary taxes; to fight for it, and if need be die for it. Wherever we live we enjoy its benefits and are subject to its restraints. It is the symbol of national unity, the pledge of national continuity. Our peace, security, health, and well being, in an ever-increasing measure, depend upon the wisdom of its policies and the efficiency of its administration. Finally, when the race is run, a permit for our burial must be obtained from the govern- ment. One of the outstanding characteristics of modern civilization is the fact that the functions increase in number and variety from decade to decade. Today we have reached a point where the government is no longer justified on the ground of mere power but on that of service. In times of peace the acts of state are in the main acts of service, not of force. In the light of recent experience, no cautious student of the government will undertake to state dogmatically just what are the proper limits of government action. Many attempts have been made to classify the varied functions of the modern government. None of them is both logical and all- embracing. Broadly speaking of course, these functions may be divided into domestic and foreign; that is, those which pertain to citizens at home and those involving relations with foreign coun- tries. Some of the domestic functions are prohibitive in character. In other cases the government undertakes to regulate the conduct of persons and the uses of property. Again, the government seeks to promote definite lines of social activity by grants of money and favorable legislation. It may endeavor to control one kind of intellectual activity and restrain another. Finally, it may make radical attempts to change the prevailing modes of distributing wealth or economic goods by positive action directed to that end. 35 Agnita The regulative functions of government as distinct from the prohibitive, are designed to control the use of private property in the interest of public health, safety, and economic advantages. By no means are all the functions of government restrictive in character. On the contrary the government may promote private enterprise by tariffs on imported goods and bounties on certain industries. May who object strenuously to “government inter- ference’’ in other connections approve assistance to private indus- try, especially if they are the beneficiaries. Besides the functions relating to property and conduct, the government enters the realms of science and education. It fosters science by the establishment of institutions for research. Many states support education by maintaining a complete school system reaching from the kindergarten to the graduate departments of the university. We must also take note of a large group of functions designed to mitigate some of the inequalities of fortune which were once supposed to be the product of a natural law of distribution of wealth. From the days of Aristotle to our own time, statesmen have believed that the concentration of wealth, on the one hand, and the existence of widespread poverty on the other, are dangerous to the safety of society, “The freest government’’, said Daniel Webster, “if it could exist would not long be acceptable if the tendency of the laws was to create a rapid accumulation of property in a few hands and render a great mass of the population dependent and penniless. In such a case, the popular power must break in upon the rights of property, or else the influence of property must limit and control the exercise of popular power.’’ It was on this ground that President Roosevelt advocated a heavy inheritance tax. “Such a tax,’’ he said, “would help preserve a measurable equality of opportunity for the people growing to manhood. These are some respects in which men are obviously not equal; but, there should be an equality of rights before the law and at least an ap- proximate equality in the conditions under which each man ob- tains the chance to show the stuff in him when compared to his fellows.’’ Indeed no one can think long and seriously about the problems of government without coming face to face with its historic mission in the scheme of life. In short, the government is now viewed as a collective agency for waging war on five deadly enemies of man- kind: ignorance, poverty, disease, waste, and inhumanity. Mary R. McCullough 36 ©Ije Agnita Malehirtory ||FjNCE more at the close of another school year, thousands of young men and women all over the land have come to what is termed “the parting of the ways.” Among those thousands, we, the Class of '34 of St. Agnes High School, are soon to be numbered. Indeed, ere “Day sets the sun within the flaming monstrance of the West,” we shall have taken that final step which separates us irrevocably from the happy, carefree days of school life. The day that we longed for so eagerly, that we foolishly imag- ined would never come, that day—our Graduation Day—is now a vivid reality. What, then, are the sentiments that fill our hearts today? What the thoughts that strive for utterance? Dear friends, ours is not the power to reveal these to you. ‘Twould take the gifted tongue of the poet to unleash the answers to these questions. Rather must we content ourselves, ere that final step be taken, to tell you in the homeliest way, that above and beyond all else, we are dimly conscious of the care and sacrifice that have gone into the making of this day, and, being conscious, our hearts are filled with sincerest gratitude. We are glad of the opportunity to acknowledge our debt, and to thank you publicily for all that you have done for us. We are aware, too, that the step we are about to take means the passing from boyhood and girlhood to young manhood and womanhood, the relinquishing of the sheltered life in our beloved school for the stei ner life in the school of the world, the choosing of one of the many pathways of life that come before our view. What a change and what a responsibility that of a sudden are thrust upon us! Yet, standing as we are on the threshold of the future, we are not fearful of the outcome. The joy of this day is not dimmed by those sobering thoughts. All through our school days, by word and by the still more potent force of example, we have been impressed with those principles of Catholic doctrine that will guide us through every changing circumstance of life. We have been reminded that our life must be one of service to God and to our fellowman, and that even though our path be strewn with thorns, we must bear our cross if we would win our crown. Often has the thought been recalled to us that Christ, our Divine Teacher, Who has said, “Take up thy cross,” has also said “Come to Me;” and that indeed it is only those who have the courage and generosity to heed the former who are entitled to the joys and consolations of the latter. 37 (Elje Arjmta Day after day, in the monotony and routine of classroom work, we have been carefully instructed in the various branches of secular science, and this, supplemented by those vital forces of self-sacrifice and devotion to duty, has fitted us preeminently to take our place in the world of affairs. Therefore, we go forth, not fearfully, but rather joyfully, knowing that if we keep before our minds the lessons we have learned here, we shall ever “walk confidently on our way.” To you, our dear Pastor, and to you, our dear Sisters and Parents, we offer the joy that fills our hearts today. Yours has been the sacrifice, and yours in large measure, is the victory. May our future lives never dim the pride and joy you feel in us today; rather, in a spirit of gratitude, may our words and acts increase that measure even to the hundredfold. Classmates, truly we are at the parting of the ways. Far and wide those paths will lead us, but near or far, let us ever strive to “carry on,” bound together by the happy memory of the precepts and ideals held up to us in our beloved St. Agnes. Let us go forth, with a song in our hearts and a prayer on our lips, that, in the words of Tennyson, we may Live pure, speak true, Right the wrong, and Follow the King! M ARGARET M. McCoOL 38 Ll}?

James Bonner, former Catholic High star, as coach of our basket- ball team, even though last year’s graduation deprived us of every regular with the exception of one. Our opening game was with Catholic High on December 12, and though we played our best we w?ere not able to down the champions of the Philadelphia Catholic League. The next two games were with Parkesburg, which we lost after a tierce struggle. St. Katherine’s was also victorious in a heart-breaking contest, winning by one point—19-18. We then journeyed to Philadelphia to play the Cahillites again, and although defeated by an overwhelming score we displayed our sportsmanship by not once fouling the opposition. Our first vic- tory came in the Marple-Newtown game, with a score 21-9, while St. Matthew’s was forced to concede defeat by the decisive score of 50-18. During the course of the season we played thirteen games, only three of which were victorious. The Junior Varsity team played many interestesting and exciting game, sand faired much better, winning seven out of eleven. To Reverend Joseph M. Farrell, and to our Coach, Air.

Air-tight pitching by Joe McCauley and Eddie Finegan, combined with powerful offensive work, helped to pile up the victories. On April 13, the first game of the 1934 season was played. This was an impressive 4-3 victory over St. Katherine’s High, in an extra-inning contest. Dick Snitzer and Ukie McCusker each clouted a home run, and Joe McCauley pitched a steady brand of ball to hold the invaders in check. On April 18, we chalked up our second win at the expense of St. Matthew’s High, at Conshohocken, the score being 7-3. Joe McCauley again gave an impressive display of mound prowess. Our first defeat came when we were nosed out, 8-7, by Honey Brook on May 1, although McCusker and Connell each hit a homer. We quickly regained our winning stride the very next day with a 2-1 verdict over St. Matthew’s High. Eddie Finegan, making his debut on the mound, limited the opponents to three hits. We defeated St. Katherine’s again on May 16, by staging a great uphill fight after spotting the Main Liners a 5-1 lead as far as the sixth inning. The score was 7-5. As the Agnita goes to press, three more games remain on the schedule. Considering the great work already performed by the team, we have high hopes of adding three more victories to our already glorious record. tntra-iflural IBaslu'thaU 2Ceaiute |T HE four high school classes opened the league on Monday, Feb. 26, after the close of the regular season. Each game was cleanly contested, every class trying to do its best in order to emerge the victor. The Senior team, by winning all six games, was declared the winner. As a token of remembrance, Father Schuyler presented the Seniors with Pocket Manuals. The Seventh and Eighth grade boys played a series of very interesting and exciting basketball games. Four teams were chosen, namely, Yankees, Athletics, Washington and Red Sox, coached by the boys of the Senior Class—James Zaccarelli, Richard Snitzer, Hugh McCusker, and Joseph Clark, respectively. Victor Giancola acted as referee. The Yanks managed to clinch the championship. 51 (The Agiuta iiorlmt TITHE hockey season began about the middle of September. Before the league games started, there were several practice games in order to help the girls get into form. Each girl prac- ticed eagerly so as to be able to help her team win the cup. By the time the games started the four teams were pretty evenly matched. During the season many interesting and exciting games were played, but the Seniors, by means of a victory in their final game took the cup. The Junior, Sophomore, and Freshman teams showed constant improvement in their games, the Juniors finishing only one point behind the Seniors. We take this opportunity to thank Father Schuyler for his untiring interest and helpfulness in coaching us during the entire season. GIRLS’ INTER-CLASS SCHEDULE Tuesday, 1 ) Sept. Tuesday, 10 Oct.

Agnita Alumni |T HE officers and members of St. Agnes Alumni Association extend congratulations to the Class of 1934 upon having successfully completed their course of studies in St. Agnes High School. You have been fortunate, during the past few years, in having the inspiration of our Pastor, Father Schuyler, and the dear Sisters success and happiness will serve as a reward for your efforts put forth under their guidance. We, members of the Alumni, hope that you will show the same keen interest in our activities as you have displayed during your school days. James E. O’Neill, '26, President Class of 1911 The years roll by swiftly. Twenty-three of them have elapsed since the Class of 1911, ten in number, left the portals of St. Agnes, after having completed the course under the two-year curriculum. The year 1911 bears some significance in the fact that that year marked the dedication of the present main building of St. Agnes School, under the able supervision of our late beloved pastor. Father Spalding. Those wishing to continue their high school education were obliged to go elsewhere, and so, the following year Father Spalding, perceiving the ever-increasing need of a four-year high school, enlarged and and extended the course of study to cover a four-year period. One who has kept in touch with affairs of the school needs only to glance backward to note the steady and marked progress achieved by it during the past two decades. With three times as many classrooms as were needed in 1911, the enrollment five times as great, and the teaching staff increased correspondingly, one can readily see the growth the school has made. The Class of 1934 should be justly proud to be graduated from St. Agnes, after having completed their work under the invaluable guidance of Father Schuyler and our Sisters. May the lessons they have taught be ever a guiding star to them, and may success crown their efforts! The Class of 1911 joins with the Alumni of other years in congratulating the Class of 1934. Glancing over the roll of the Class of 1911, one finds them scattered and occupying varied positions. William Bray fills the role of manager of a chain store in Syracuse, N. Y. 57 (Cljr Agnita Hugh Joyce, of Newark, N. J., is connected with a broker’s firm in New York. John Pierce acts as a salesman for Grant's Clothing Store in West Chester.

They are Marguerite Kerr Donnelly, Mary O’Connell Marr, Helen O’Neill Bewley, and Margaret Cassidy Finegan, '11. Class of 1915 Nineteen is a goodly number of years to recall the feelings of the Class of 1915 just completing our school days, when probably all of you, the Class of 1934, were at the beginning of your lives. Our thoughts now, are the experiences through which we have passed; yours, the hopes of the years to come. We bring to you at this time, happy graduates of 1934, our congratulations and felici- tations. Through this span of nineteen years all of us have embraced the married state.

Class nf IU23 Old ’23’s a veteran now—a class of long ago. Eleven years have passed (and how!) but we’re still in the know. We’ve seem 'em come, we’ve seen ’em go; we've watched ’em rise and fall. But we have ne’er forgotten some—our classmates one and all. Our interest in each other speaks a tribute to the days, when we were close for weeks down happy childhood ways. Our memory often takes us back to joys that passed too soon and gives us thought of what we lack—especially in June. We ramble on, no end in view, so lest there be much more, we here extend best wishes to the Class of ’34. We wish you luck and proud success (we know you'll have them too); for you've been trained to take no less, by Teachers tried and true. And now to business we must turn, a task of grave purport, and while the midnight oil we burn we’ll finish our report. To learn of member of our class we took a look around. Now you may check them as they pass, for this is what we found: “Vince” Finegan, our president, the facts let us relate, is still a local resident and worker for the State. Joe Cosgriff toils at Kauffman’s store; John Ryan with “Nate” Rambo; Dick Haley's set for evermore with Light and Power, we know. Joe Clancy is a railroad man; Ed Farrelly’s left this earth. A hero’s death to end his span—his loss has left a dearth. 60 Agnita Rose Treston, Catherine Ahern, now dwell in wedded bliss and Alice Cassidy, we learn, has also come to this. Our Edna Faust is likewise wed and we have Teachers two. Miss Monaghan is one well read but Mary still to you. Miss Philomena Huber is our other teaching mind, while Mary Mason is a whiz, the stenographic kind. Dot Guss still keeps those books of Dad’s and finds the time for more. Hence she sells the latest fads, up at Mosteller’s store. Miss Mary Reilly’s chosen work is nursing those who ail, and illness never long will lurk whe she is on its trail. A Sister is the final one of classmates in the main. She whom a great vocation won was our Elizabeth Lane. And that, my friends, is all the crop of those who graced our room. All save this journalistic flop—the recent blushing groom. Hugh V. McDevitt, '23. £laas of 1924 Congratulations Class of 1934!

Congratulations, Class of Thirty four! We, the class of Twenty-eight, as a group, six years ago reached the clumination of a glorious illusion. We went forth one by one, to conquer and to overcome. The experiences that we have ac- cumulated are not altogether happy ones. The past years have been filled with such suffering as the world has never seen and I hope will never again experience. But above all, as we once again emerge into the sunlight of a new and a better prosperity, the banner of the Class of Twenty-eight, representing as it does not an individual but a group, still waves triumphantly. We are one. Congratulations, Class of Thirty Four. John F. Civial, '28.

It is our great pleasure to congratulate the Class of ’34 upon the successful completion of a high school education. In present day life such education is essential even for comparative success.

R.— Do you like music? A. P.— Yes, but don’t stop on my account. Prof.— Young man, are you the teacher? Student— No, sir. Prof.— Well then, stop acting like an idiot. The captain realized that there was no hope for the sinking boat and said: Is there any one among us who can pray? A meek man stepped forward: Yes, sir, I can pray. Good, said the captain, you start praying while the rest of us get lifesavers on. We’re one short. J. Z.— That new girl doesn’t seem to be very intelligent. R. S.— No, she didn’t pay any attention to me either. Teacher— Why did Joshua command the sun to stand still? Freshman— I guess it didn’t agree with his watch. Teacher— This is the third time you've looked on his paper. Willie— Yes, teacher, he doesn’t write a bit plainly. Poet— What do you think of my book? Editor— The covers are too far apart.

Willie— Pa tells them to Ma as a sacret, and Ma tells them to the bridge club as a secret, and then they are broadcast. If you intend to hitch your wagon to a star, better make sure that it’s not a falling star. Jerry— I see you’re getting better marks lately. How's that? Bobby— My dad1 s on a trip, so I do all my work myself. Teacher— Tom, can you tell me what a hypocrite is?” Tom— Yes ma’am. It’s a boy who comes to school with a smile on his face. That night she was in tears when she opened the door for her hus- band. I ve been insulted, she sobbed. Your mother in- sulted me. My mother! he exclaimed. But Alice—she’s miles away. I know, but a letter came for you this morning and I opened it. He looked stern. I see, but where does the insult come in? In the postscript, she answered. It said—‘Dear Alice, don’t forget to give this letter to George’. Little Rose, a first-grader, walking with her mother, spoke to a small boy. ‘His name is Jimmy and he is in my grade,” she explained. What is the little boy’s last name?” her mother asked. His whole name, said Rose, is Jimmy Sitdown—that’s what the teacher calls him.” DOORKEEPER (in public building)— Say, come back here. Dogs are not allowed in here, sir. Visitor— That's not my dog.” Doorkeeper— Not your dog! Why he’s following you.” Visitor— Well, so are you.
