E l i if Ki- L . Page Thirty-Four Around the Course With ThirtyfGne HE day after Labor Day being set for the take-off, the class of '31 met at T. R. H. S. in September of 1928 to elect a pilot and. assistants for their four-year air tour through the books of learning. They put their faith in Nlildred Thomas, Esther Stock, and James Eberly in order to reach Sophomore Field safely. On the way they craved a little entertainment besides their English and Algebra so they held a Hallow'e'en party and the Freshies turned out en masse as well as in masque. At Semester Exams the plane went into a tail spin but soon righted itself and made a three-point landing at Sophomore Field, whereupon the crew threw a picnic at Fisher Lake to celebrate. After two and a half months vacation the crew resumed their flight with Murray Schoonmaker at the controls and Barbara Grant, Stanley Butler. and Helen Freeland standing by in case of emergency. When the morale of the crew became somewhat weakened by overwork they took time off for another Hal- lowe'en party and as one thing calls for another this was followed by a Saint Patrick's party. After safely weathering the storm of exams, the feeling that a much needed rest was necessary culminated in a picnic at Long Lake. After the excitement had waned they began the third leg of their flight. electing Ralph Birkhold, with the able assistance of Lester Heidamos, Gertrude Andrews, and Tom Delihant to pilot them safely through their Junior year. A need for dollars as well as sense was discovered and The Patsy, featuring Barbara Grant and Tom Delihant, supported by an able cast, came to the rescue. A breath-taking contest between the Blues and the Reds yielded the necessary wherewithal to put on the Junior-Senior Prom and the third leg was completed. The plane was overhauled and refueled and the crew began the home stretch. With all the dignity of true dignified Seniors, they gave the honor of being the last pilot to Forrest Tobin, assisted by James Rix, Helen Freeland and James Eberly. Although hard work was the chief activity, the busy Seniors took time to give the play, Billy's Tombstones, Genevra Thor and James Eberly taking the leads. Finally, after four years the crew landed in triumph at Graduation Airport, to rush through the activities of Commencement Week for the last time together after which the group disbanded, each to pilot his own plane to points unknown. -Lucy Gave, '3I.

We realize that without the help of our parents, our teachers, and our friends the opportunities which have been extended to us these last four years would not have been possible. We realize that we are not only better prepared to do our bit of the world's work, but also that our chances to live lives that are richer and more complete have been increased by our learning to employ our leisure time to a better advantage. For if our education through the years has meant what it should, we have developed ability to enjoy and understand our fellowmen, to feel the thrill of competition in a sport, and even how to enjoy ourselves when we are alone. About twelve years ago a certain committee met and set up the seven cardinal objectives for education. It was during this meeting that the discussion of the wise use of leisure time appeared for the first time. Recommendations for its use were largely prophetic, but since that meeting the use of leisure time has traveled far on the road toward that prophecy-in fact, far beyond the most optimistic hopes of pre-war years. In every high school of today, we find extra curricular activities of various types, taking care of the development of the social nature of boys and girls. Art, music, dramatics, athletics, and clubs offer a means to this end and a means to the solution of the problem of leisure time. Dramatics provide a cultivation of poise, self-reliance, leadership, and per- sonality. In the drama, the spoken word becomes a beautiful living thing which is seldom forgotten by those who feel its power. All modern schools have organizations and clubs which develop the natures of boys and girls. Some of the groups in this school are the Boys' C1lee Club, the D. S. and the Madrigal clubs, the orchestra and band, the Blue Triangle, the Campfire Girls, and the Hi-Y. Life-time friendships are often formed through these clubs and all of these organizations provide training in leadership, re- sponsibility, and service. Physical education is rapidly growing in popularity because it serves to bring health and joy throughout all the years of life. Such sports as baseball, basket- ball, and football teach team-work. Good sportsmanship taught through these games makes good losers as well as winners in all the contests of life. Page Thirty-Six L I nQ,L4E'i!26Rg.9a. aa-, .a.-, the nQ,f'Ye5 Our education provides for reading as a basis of gaining a wider knowledge of life. Books give us an insight into the world of nature and of human nature. Reading good literature teaches us to find enjoyment and appreciation in what the Master thinkers of all ages have to give us. It provides us with opportunities to have life and to have it more abundantly. We have learned that through work well done and leisure well spent, to put greater value on life. Sara Teasdale in her poem, A Prayer, expresses well the joy which comes from a life which is lived completely in keeping with all of life's moods. It is a poem which duly recognizes the value of work and play: When I am dying, let me know That I loved the blowing snow Although it stung like whips: That I loved all lovely things And I tried to take their stings With gay unembittered lips: That I loved with all my strength, To my soul's full depth and length, 1 Careless if my heart must break, That I sang as children sing Fitting tunes to everything, Loving life for its own sake. -Lena Lewis. ,Emi a-a-aewmmi as 0 t Page Thirty-Seven v...l'k 1 T- if eff -w fr f Valedictory HE loom in its simplest sense is a machine for Weaving thread into cloth. The scientiic definition for a loom states that the loom is a machine in Which yarn or thread is Woven into a fabric by the crossing of the threads called chain or Warp, running lengthwise, with others called Woof or filling. The Weaving is merely the making of a Warp and Woof structure. A series of threads are stretched parallel to each other forming a Warp. A second thread, the Woof, is passed over the odd and under the even threads and back again under the odd and over the even, forming a united surface. Thus a cloth fabric is woven. As the product of the loom is a fabric of varied degrees of stability and beauty with diverse patterns and colors, so the product of the loom of life is of varied values in characters and personalities. Our lives are the products of this loom. Life is made up of opportunities and the use we make of them. The Warp or the series of threads stretched parallel to each other is the foundation of the fabric. The warp of the fabric of life is also made up of a series of threads Which are the habits we form and the friends We make in our youth. Into this foundation the Woof or the acts, thoughts, and deeds of our lives, forming character and personality, are Woven. We are born with faculties and powers capable of almost anything. even more than we can easily imagine: but it is only the exercise of those powers which gives us skill in anything and leads us towards perfection. Only by practice are rope-dancers and tumblers able to perform their astonishing acts. The mind, like the body, is made what it is by practice, One who has the natural disposition for a certain thing does not remain so except by use and practice, for it is the practice alone that brings the powers of the mind, as Well as those of the body, to their perfection. Then the habits we cultivate in our youth Will be the markings of the man or Woman of middle-age. As habits are important threads in the foundation of the fabric so also are the threads of friendship necessary for a good foundation. To have friends a man must first be a friend. He who has many friends has been a friend to many. The art of friendship is self-acquired. Men go to schools to learn to paint, carve. draw, or Write. There are finishing schools for girls where etiquette and deport- ment are taught for a price, There are correspondence schools for many crafts and many arts: but the greatest of all arts-that of making friends-comes to .Lrsi ' . 1 1 Y t . fl 1 J Page Thirty-Eight .3. rg- M - H3 A, Fil-32 ffigl , .. .-. + T1 cur. f A A x,.. 11Ql'r- S A , -AQ-1, a-...-.--. -M---,.,ffQ1.:gaw:,,.,, --W-M--W M-aura. Q-V R 1 X I a man from within, and only when he makes a patient effort to deserve it. Friendship must be a lifetime habit, He who comes to the end of life's road with few or no friends has only himself to blame. Courtesy, adaptability, and kindness to others must also be woven into our fabric. Courtesy to one's friends, employers, and fellow citizens is essential for the perfect cloth. It is an art to be able to make other people happy. It is also an art to be genuine and real and worthwhile as it is to dismiss everything that is petty, trivial, and insignificant. These are the threads which brighten the fabric, taking away the dull finish. Boasting, self-praise, and a haughty manner are the dull threads which will mar the pattern and if we do not weave carefully, might even completely spoil the fabric. Confidence in yourself is one thing but a haughty, overbearing man- ner is another. The interweaving of all of these threads forms the patterns of character, personality, and success. Character is the accumulation that results from moral thrift, the develop- ment and conservation of that which is good. It is the beauty of the cloth and if it is eliminated our fabric is practically worthless. It is difficult to tell just what the term personality comprises. Still everyone knows that it is something alive, something dynamic, something that without effort wins the other fellow mentally of temperamentally, often in both respects. Personality is doubtless to some degree a gift of nature: but it is also a product of victorious strife with self and circumstances. The third pattern, that of success, consists in doing and in creating. A man is successful not by his inner force alone but by his skill in using, co-operating with, and adjusting himself to nature, mankind, and the Infinite. The figures of the fabric are in most part reflected light from heaven since Cuod is the master weaver who shapes our destinies. If we break the threads in our looms it must be traced back to the careless weaver. So every broken thread in our lives must be accounted for, for this is necessary for success. Our chief endeavor should be to carefully weave in our lives all the bright and beautiful designs and Hgures possible for us to do. So we, the Senior Class of '31, bid you a fond farewell as we go forth to continue to weave the patterns of our lives. -Alice Standerline. . 5 Qzggn. -. . ..aig2 ,.,gi25:Hi.uf . ..g..4i,1j,,L9 Page Thirty-Nine Valedictory OST of the people in the audience have memories of some graduation stirred by this event. As we ponder this fact we realize the widespread opportunities in the United States for education as compared to the rather meagre chances that foreign countries provide. Ed- ucation in the foreign countries is for the aris- tocracy but in the United States it is for the many and not for the few. When the Puritans came to this country one of the Hrst things that they thought of was churches and schools. Consequently churches and schools were the first public buildings that they constructed. In the church the first provision for education was made, and the ministers were the first teachers. Shortly afterwards, however, came the separate schools. The people of the colonial age believed that for the complete success of their experiment in democ- racy and nation-building there would have to be an intelligent and educated citizenship. Education was intended to safeguard the new republic and to assure its permanency through perilous years ahead. The schools of yesterday may be divided into two classes: the grammar school and the academy. The grammar schools paid but little attention to getting ready for life the student who was not going to college. The grammar school was just a preparatory one for college. Then came the academy with its entirely different conception of the use of a school. its chief aim was to develop a person able to go into the World and meet on a par with other people without having the need of further education. The school house of the past was usually an old, squatty building furnished with home-made desks which accommodated six or eight pupils, according to the size of the pupils. The term was five months. generally those months which the boys and girls couldn't work at home. There was no set course of study. The number of branches studied depended not only on the ability of the pupil, but also on the wishes of the pupil, and the willingness of the parent to furnish the text books. A great inspiration was obtained from hearing the older ones recite. It would create within the pupil an ambition to qualify for the more advanced subjects as soon as possible. The high school of today is a combination of the grammar school and the academy. Today the demand is insistent that students shall be trained in the high school to become efficient citizens whether their training shall go on in specialized preparation for professional life or shall lead directly into the field f' 4- .. -Q . . 1. . , is 1 . , wt-M, . my N- V aff' f E f .-WJ. c Page Forty Alf, ...g-.-l---fm --H-- ..t5gfrQHg5h'f1,' it--M--my-me '-f-PM ft .QJQQE Q MQ? i Q C-3 E of commerce and industry. And such is the aim of the up-to-data high school. T The subjects in the first schools were reading, writing, arithmetic, spelling, grammar, geography, and history, with the three r's, reading, writing, and arithmetic, forming the foundation. Now we have some fifteen standard subjects added to these. We do not realize how many opportunities exist in our high schools. The only trouble is that there are so many that we can't take advantage of all of l them. Along almost any line of endeavor a well-worth start can be made. A pupil has to think a long time before he can decide which course to follow. Each l course seems to be just as good as another. From machinery to foreign languages, they are all incorporated in the curricula of our modern high school. t r The high school of tomorrow will be the result of the long struggle for democracy in education against the aristocratic tendencies which were inherited from the old world. Famous educators predict that it will be a school offering the best possible preparation both for people going directly into the world of business and those intending to study further. Probably pupils will pursue only the groups of studies bearing an obvious relation tol each other and to the ulti- mate goal of the individual. One progressive educator forecasts that the high school of the future might be divided into departments: such as Departments of Health, Vocations, Leisure, Home Participation, Citizenship, and Philosophy. Whatever changes might be made in the future the chief purpose of education has been and probably always will be the development, first of all, of character, A and second, of intellect. A system of education that omits either of these two 1 phases is defective. Development of character rests mainly with the teacher: the development of intellect may depend largely upon the course of study. Instruc- tion that develops only capability and efficiency is mere training, and, valuable l as it may be, cannot take the place of education. Education used to be considered preparation for life. That is, in getting education one was acquiring a means to enter life itself. Life did not begin until after the education. Education was upheld as merely a means to an end. To- day, more and more, education is considered to be the process by which the' in- dividual becomes something differing from his former self. The process is one of growth from within. We can never grow too old for education. Always we y are learning something. Education is no longer preparation for life, but T g living i I l l -Stanley Butler. 1 C l 5. gift-nw A A Efrmrrxwff fri-some Page Forty-One JUNIOR CLASS W '- rl, J me - Q, it G juniors CLASS OFFICERS Hester Remstra ..........SH.....

The team had a long, hard schedule of nine games. They made a good start for a successful season by beating Marcellus 19 to 0, but the only other bright spots in the season were a 7 to 7 tie with Allcgan and a win from Dowagiac. Coach Casey Voorhees did his best to develop the boys into a Winning eleven but they did not seem to function as he wished them to. At the end of the Big Six conference Three Rivers held a tie for third with Dowagiac. The team was ably cared for by the efficient managers, the Iron Man, Hugh Van Horn, and Allen Cook. The men who Won letters are as followsr Captain Dircks, Simone, Marietti, Shepherdson, Walker, Howard, Cook, Bowersox, Huffstetter, Heidamos, Tobin, Rix, Briggs, Clymer, Thompson, Frisk. and Mack. A few scrimmage games were played with the alumni, which provided a great deal of pleasure to the has been football players of T. R. The teams were well matched but the school team was in better condition and worked with more unity. 5379500 Games'Played and Scores: Three Rivers ---. oc.. --l9 Marcellus ...rocs .- Three Rivers ......... 6 St. Joe ----.------ Three Rivers 0 Vicksburg - - .... .- Three Rivers 0 Coldwater .....o, Three Rivers Three Rivers Three Rivers Three Rivers Three Rivers a-----n-- 0 ----,,---lO --,------ O --------- 6 - ........ 7 Sturgis - .........

In the sense of games lost and Won this season was 'la failure, 'but taking another view of it, the fellows that played in the games yderived more good from the sport than if they'd have won every game. They learned sportsmanship, co- operation, loyalty, and bow to be good losers. Most all the games played this year ended in a close score but the jinx seemed to follow Three Rivers. The Dowagiac games proved to be the most exciting on the schedule. One resulting in two over time periods. Three Rivers played Dowagiac in the district tournament there. A win was prophesied for Three Rivers but hindered by a blizzard, the boys after their strenuous trip were unable to play in their top form. The prospects for a good team for next year are very good. There are most of the veterans from last year back, and with another year before themf many wins may be expected under the able leadership of captain-elect I. Briggs. , -.

The team was composed of Oren Bingaman, Robert Mullett, Robert Kemmer- ling, Paul Hoover and Captain Harvey DeLong. The first cross country meet was at Kalamazoo with Kalamazoo Central, Flint Northern, and Three Rivers participating. Three Rivers received third place. The next cross country meet was with Coldwater. Three Rivers won this contest by a score of 25 to 30. The next contest was a more important one, the Regional Cross Country meet at Kalamazoo. Three Rivers won this contest making them regional champions for the second time. The winning of this meet made Three Rivers eligible for the state cross country meet at Ypsilanti, November ll. At this meet Three Rivers took second place. The last contest of the season was a dual meet with South Haven. Because of the ineligibility of one of the South Haven contestants Three Rivers took first place. Captain Harvey DeLong is the only one that will not be back next year. Under the leadership of captain-elect, Oren Bingaman, a more successful cross country team can be expected. l L X 3' T 'AG f- V P- g'x,f'. 1-12 .

Mrs. Bumstead Leigh, about whom the play is centered, was in reality a nobody, trying to give her sister a chance she never had by marrying her to some rich man. She had almost succeeded when Pete Swallow, a childhood sweetheart, appeared on the scene. Violet DeSalle, the younger sister, whose conscience bothers her, confessed the truth only to be rejected by Anthony Raw- son. Violet finds herself in love with her former nance's brother, Geoffrey. Because of some shameful acts on the part of Anthony, Mrs. Bumstead Leigh forces him to get the consent of his parents to the marriage of Violet and Geoffrey. CAST OF CHARACTERS Nina LL LLLLLLLL L..

June 10, 1930, the Seniors presented Climbing Roses, a three-act comedy, by Eugene C1. Hafer, under the able direction of Miss Comar. The cast of this play comprises very common but warm hearted Maggie Rose and crude husband Jim Rose, who try to enter high society. Peggy Rose also strives to climb the social trellis. Jack Archer, America's foremost author, over whose expected coming the town is agog but who has already arrived incognito, is working as a yard man for the lowly Roses. The rapid fire action achieves a tremendously forceful climax and all of the characters are uproariously de- lightful. CAST OF CHARACTERS Peggy Rose D,E, Emu- c,,E,E,,. D D, , . .

Any bov who has earned a T. R. in any sport, automatically belongs. This year the club has been especially active. Because of lack of funds the Athletic Association decided not to give letters to the boys who had received one previously. The Varsity Club then decided to award letters to boys earning them for the second time until the Athletic Association acquires enough funds to pay for the letters, provided that the Athletic Association lets the club take a more active part in school sports. Formerly the club has staged an all-school dance and charged admission. This year a free party was given for any school pupils in the four upper grades. Dancing was the main feature of the evening. A musical comedy is given every year. with an all male cast. The feminine parts are admirably played by boys. Page Eighty-Nine . . M. C. CLUB OFFICERS Alice Standerline .C.CCCCCCCCCCC,CC,.

Each bout consisted of three one-minute rounds with a one minute rest period between rounds. All bouts were fought and won cleanly and without malice. The winner received a golden glove and the runner-up a silver medal. Under the able supervision of Mr. Foster boxing is rapidly becoming one of the most popular minor sports.

In January, 1931, about fifty members of both clubs enjoyed a party at Dowagiac. A din- ner was served, and afterwards the Ag. teams played basketball. Dowagiac was victorious. The local club entertained Dowagiac, March 23, 1931, with about fifty-live members present.

Page One Hundred One Grain and Stock judging Teams THE Grain and Stock Judging Teams are probably the least known and least appreciated bodies in school. The members of these teams have done some remarkable work in the past few years. In April, 1930, three teams went to Kalamazoo to the District Contest. The livestock team, Donald Avery, Russell Stoldt, and Stuart Beam, placed thirdg the poultry team, Stuart Beam, Donald Gard, and Norris Simmons, placed second: the grain and potato team, Ray Simmons, Emerson DeLong, and Alan Avery, placed tenth. At the St. Joseph County Fair at Centreville, in September, 1930, the live- stock and poultry judging team, consisting of Norris Simmons, Russell Stoldt, Clarence Wagner, and Harvey DeLong, alternate, took first place. The grain and potato judging team, in which Alan Avery, Marshall Schug, and Clarence Hartman took part, received second place, Two teams went to Grand Rapids in August, 1930, to the West Michigan State Fair. The grain and potato team, composed of Robert Walters. Alan Avery, and Ray Simmons, placed thirteenth. Stuart Beam, Russell Stoldt, and Darrell Rockwell placed third in livestock judging as a team. Stuart Beam individually placed fourth highest. At the Calhoun County Fair at Marshall, in August, 1930, Donald Avery. Russell Stoldt, and Norris Simmons placed third. During Junior Farmers' Week, which was a state-wide contest at East Lansing in May, 1930, five teams, namely: grain, potato, dairy, stock, and poultry, took part. With money earned at the Centreville Fair, part of the expenses of a group of boys were paid to attend the International Livestock Show at the stock yards in Chicago. Page One Hundred Ti.

Treasurer HE Girls' Sports Club was newly organized this year by Miss Kalchthaler. The purpose of the club is to create an interest in sports among girls and to promote self-participation. A wide variety of seasonal sports is recognized in the hope that any girl with the faintest interest in athletics may find one activity to her liking. Each sport has a manager who takes care of all attendance records and notices, and helps conduct practices. Then inter-class tournaments are played to determine the class champions. The sports are: Fall-soccer and hiking: Winter-basketball, volley ball. hiking and skating: Spring-baseball and track. The point system is used for earning a reward in sports, and points are accumulated from year to year. It takes 500 points for a small T. R., 100 points for membership to Girls' Sports Club, 800 for a T. R., and 1,100 for Honor Roll. Page One Hundred Four 3.9,- :Kv-,-- ff - ' is u - f 4 ' ', f - x v ,s - -- f -A ff -4 .t ' .,i, .

The large number of girls who came out for basketball this year, and the excellent coaching of Miss Kalchthaler, made the basketball season a great success. Because of the large number of players there was a lot of good com- petition between the various classes this year. The Seniors again this year took the championship. There were eight games played. The Seniors rank iirst, Juniors second, Freshmen third, and Sophomores fourth, of the Senior High. The Rhinies first, and Peewees second in the Junior High. Page One Hundred Six Girls' lnterclass Volley Ball THE Sophomores took the championship of last year's volley ball tourna- ment.

September 3.-Everything is in full swing today and almost everyone found his own seat in the auditorium when assembly was called, . Some of these smart Senior girls will learn!

The Armstrong organization has devoted many years to the study of steam trap application and construction with the purpose in view of producing the best traps that is humanly possible to make. Armstrong Traps are noted for their economy, simplicity, small size and dependability. They are serving efficiently in hundreds of industries. You can buy Armstrong Traps for low pressures, high pressures, pulsating pressures, Wet steam, superheated steam, for ser- vice With oil, air, or acid conditions, in fact, for any instal- lation encountered in general practice. Armstrong Traps are all built on the same principle. The inverted bucket construction provides a water sealed trap which automatically discharges air, oil and dirt. Because of the Water seal, live steam cannot get to the valves and escape. The leverage permits a small compact unit with a large capacity. Ordinarily it requires no supports other than the pipe line itself and makes a neat installation. Heat treated chrome steel valves and seats insure against leakage and give years of trouble-free service. rmstrong achine Works Three Rivers, Michigan Page One Hundred Thirty-One SIXTY-SEVENTH YEAR FIRST NATIONAL BANK THREE RIVERS, MICH.
