': -- Salutator ELIZABETH DABQLL L.xD1Es AND GENTLEMEN: i E, the Class of Nineteen Hundred iw and Thirteen, welcome you cor- dially to our closing exercises. Since we first came into the school, every- thing has been done to help us. The very building itself contains - much of educational 1 value .in the form of pictures and statuary which have been pre- sented to the school by former classes and by interested friends. As F We become familiar with famous works of art, we cultivate our tastes and thus we learn to appre- ciate things artistic. Especially beautiful is the picture given by the class of nineteen hun- dred and twelve. It is a copy o-f a painting of one of a series in the Library of Congress. VVashington, known as The Progress of Printing, this particular picture represents Manuscript VVriting and it is well worth one's trouble to go and see it in the High School Assembly Hall. Qur class has given a companion piece, Oral Traditionf' from the same series. From the external surroundings, we pass to school work, and the teachers, who are surely doing their best to further our inter- ests. It is often hard to realize that we are actually working for our own good and not for the teacher's. W'hy should we do this, or that? is the question that we ask our- selves. just at the time we may not feel particularly interested in the subjectg but, some day that question will be answered for us. Everyone may find a course suited to his own taste, whether he incline toward a general course, with.manual training or a business course. or a Vifith the addition of a new cooking room, there Nl are many more possibili- ties for those taking domestic science. The teachers themselves can testify as to the attain- ments of the pupils in this line, for lunches domestic science, classical course. have often been served to them. We are helped not only in school, but even outside of school, for those who wish employ- ment in their leisure hours may apply to our vocation bureau. Many business men of the city consult with the teachers in charge of this new department about the positions which high school boys or girls could till. In this way. some of those who otherwise might be obliged to leave school to go to work are provided for. For the help of those who are graduating, but have not yet decided what they can do, there are vocational charts, in which are names of schools and other institutions for every kind of voca- tion, such as law, nursing, teaching, and many others. Beside the regular school work, we re- ceive another kind of education in the form of travels. Our sub-master has entertained us several times with travel talks about the Yellowstone Park and different countries of Europe. The stereopticon pictures added 5.XLL l'.X'l'URY greatly to the interest of the subjects and showed us the differences between the Old and the New NVorlds. They are one of the pleasures which we shall miss very much, and we hope he will continue these lectures for the beneht of those who come after us. To our sub-master, also we owe our Wasli- ington trip. It is unfortunate that the whole class could not have participated in this instructive and altogether delightful ex- perience. Qur visit to the many govern- ment buildings and other places of interest can never be forgotten. I am sure we are all prouder of our Capital city now than be-- fore we had seen or heard so much about it. There are also chances for the boys and girls to develop their physical powers. VVhereas before. all the profits of the foot- I ball and baseball games were devo-ted to a few boys, now an effort is being made to provide recreation for as many pupils of the High School as possible. This year five tennis courts have been made on the new Athletic Field and other sports have been provided. It is very encouraging to see the interest with which the young people have taken up the new sports. Vtfith all these opportunities, the Waltham High School ought to and does send out many well-trained boys and girls. Some of them are here tonight, just ready to step into the places which are waiting for them. It is hoped that all may attain what they seek, and remember with pleasure the Wal- tham High School which has helped them in their progress. .

We Americans, however, more Yes, motherf, outspoken than they, do not hesitate to say Well, of course I want you to have all good-bye, firmly be- lieving that if God be with our friends, every- thing else will be well. And then, after all, vale', is only a step- ping-stone to salve - and to progress. The world advances so rapidly nowadays that there is small time for ceremonious leave- taking. The youngster of five or six looks with scorn on the remains of his :elder bro-ther's toy fire-engine, and calmly demands a miniature automobile or aeroplane.

Mrs. Spen- cer said, in effect, that now, instead of giving the orphan the core, we took the whole apple, carefully considered whether he needed the skin, the seeds, or the pulp, and then acted ac- cordingly. The progress in edu- cational training since the previous generation is also very marked. school system is not a or adorn a tale, for, while the small boy of ten years ago only aspired to drive a fire-engine when he grew up, the small boy of today conhdently expects to own an automobile, and does not despair of acquir- ing an aeroplane. Mrs. Anna Garlan Spencer, the promi- nent social worker, gave a very inspiring example of this rapid advance, in a talk at the Unitarian Church this winter. She told how she and her fellow-workers are grad- ually bringing order out of the chaos which formerly reigned in the field of social work. As an illustration of the old idea of charity, she related the very amusing anecdote of a family who live near an orphan asylum. The mother noticed that her apples disap- colossal failure, a useless machine that stifies all originality and produces in- efficient men and women, despite the rather far-fetched arguments to that effect which the Ladies, Home journal has published. If things were as bad as this magazine has painted them, they would be in a serious state indeed. But we need only to read The Promised Land, that enthusiastic tribute to our schools, by one who entered them as a little alien, with the determina- tion to make good, in order to be con- vinced that here, too, the hand of progress has been at work. What girl, so unfor- tunate as to have been born poor, had, even in our mother's generation, the chance to learn without cost how to manage her VALEDICTORY household on a scientific, economical basis, or how to earn her living in the world of business. These and many other oppor- tunities are open to the girl of today, to say nothing of the improvement in the train- ing for boys, yet the pessimists are saying that our public schools are of no help in fitting us for real life! They say, too, that the general tendency of the age is to sink back into the depths of selfishness, and they speak dolefully of the recent calamities which so aptly illustrate their gloomy statements. It is only too true that the loss of some of America's finest men and women through a shipwreck caused by an inordinate desire for speed, and through a flood brought about by selfish greed for money, is irreparable, and so tragically needless. But, as usual, there are two sides to the question, and the optimist's points to improvement. Right in our own city, the generous interest taken in the Day Nursery and in the Animal Aid Society, furnishes ample proof of the prevalent spirit of altruism. And, as straws show the Way the wind blows, so a better spirit in a small city indicates a better spirit in the world at large. The movement for univer- sal peace is a very forcible illustration that we are approaching, no matter how slowly, Christ's ideal of on earth, peace, good will towards men.', And then lVlother's Day- what more direct contradiction of the cynic's view of humanity could there be than the readiness with which people adopted a white carnation as the emblem of motherhood ? Ah, yes, motherhood! We must only be thankful for the world's advance since the preceding generation, we cannot boast haughtily of it, for that was mother's gen- eration, and father's, too, and far be it from us to feel superior to them. Besides, in years to come, we may sit in this hall and listen to our sons or daughters, as they tell how far the world has gone on since their parents' day. T ' ln years to come -that has an ominous sound-I wonder how many of us are as glad to leave high school as we have so re- peatedly and emphatically declared we would be? For those who are going far- ther, regret is softened by the thought of good times to come, but for those who are to begin work at once, tonight has a deeper significance. Few 'employers are so gen- uinely interested in our welfare as are our teachers, or so ready to make allowances for neglected work when we want to be in The Playl' or to go on the VVashington Trip. lt is all very well to fuss and fume when lessons seem hard, but when it comes to the final test, I am sure that there are very few of us who will have no shade of regret as we receive our diplomas, the sym- bol of four successful years. Where shall we be in ano-ther four years? The far and the near sighted are equally helpless, for neither can tell. Yet I am sure that if I say Success to you all, our rela- tives, teachers and friends will answer unanimously, as did the country school com- mittee, Them's my sentiments tew l Cxwk l ' 'L N If ..' -4-usp' -f CX- MIRROR STAFF ' '.'i '1, 14, . 4 1 1 . 1 J 1 1 I 1 1 P 1 . - 4 , 1., vb , 'r J ' , U, t ,Qi .

Cn this particular day I wanted to be above this dim spot called earth, far from streets, and far away beings, therefore I de- cided to ascend to the top of the high Norum- bega Tower, where noise I is never heard. After ascending the tower and viewing the beautiful scenery of the surround- ing country, I noticed in the distance a large green cloud which was rapidly approaching in my direction. I knew I should be enveloped in it because I was so high above the ground. Wlieii the cloud was about half a mile away, I began to feel dizzy and the coun- try seemed to be whirl- ing around by head. I commenced to grow sleepy as the cloud came nearer. Although striving to drive this feeling away, I soon fell asleep, and was dead to the world, and to the rain that was pouring down in bucketfuls. Then I came into a new world. Such a racket, from such a little band of suf- fragettes, who were coming down Main street. ,led by Meta Ingham, bearing a ban- ner with the words, The Noisy Suffrag- ettes. They carried out the name on their banner to the best of their ability. At Cen- tral Square they stopped, and Miss Ingham started to address the crowd of nearly Io,ooo people who had collected. After her speech she introduced the rest of the suf- fragettes, Helen Leighton, Marion jones, the noise of the from all human Mildred Kierstead and Annie Ruane, who spoke a few words, then they formed in line and started on their way to Vlfashington. Those would-be-if-they-could-be voters having gone, I began to walk up Main street, gazing at the tall and stately buildings and trying to remember what were there many years ago. In the dis- tance I noticed a build- ing which stood out more than the others. Un coming nearer, I saw that it was the Pub- lic Library. placed on Prospect Hill, so that it might be seen from all parts of the city. I de- cided to View this build- ing from the inside, and to see some of the hard- workers who l a b o r I th-ere. I entered, went to the desk, and asked if I might see the Librarian. The two attendants, namely the Misses Mabry and Casey, began to talk about books. Again I asked for the Librarian, but they still talked to me about books. Finally, I decided to find him myself. This I did, and imagine my surprise on discovering Madden as the Librarian. He was in his private ofhce. He welcomed me, and asked me to sit down and wait aminute until he had finished writing a letter. I began to won- der whether he also would talk book-lan- guage to me, but I decided to risk listening to him. Wfhen he had finished his letter, I asked him how he came to have this posi- tion. Well, he said, here is the story of my adventures. Now I was sure he was going to talk the book-language to me, but PROPHECY I could not get away, so I had to listen. One year ago I set out to make 'A Tour of the Worlcl in Eighty Days,' intending to stop at 'Mirabel's Island,' 'House of the Seven Gables,' and 'The Blue Anchor Inn.' Three days later, after the 'Burning Day- light' had set, 'The Second Deluge' came. NYe were now 'Prisoners of Chance' 'Gn Board the Mary Sands,' doomed to take either one of the 'Four Roads to Paradise' or to escape 'The Devil's Wiiicl' and be 'Master' of the 'Wfheels of Chance' How- ever, 'The Devil's XYind' conquered and the ship started to sink, when I, 'Andrew the Glad,' at 'The Outpost of Eternity' seized the ice-pan. which had been used during 'The Melting of Mollyf and jumped over- board. There was I, 'Adrift on an Ice-pan' in 'Biscayne Bay.' The following night 'The Money Moon' rose, and by means of its rays, I found myself 'Under Castle XX'alls.' Some one 'XValled In' this building. hearing 'A Cry in the W'ilderness,' followed the sound of my 'Yoice' and so I, 'Jim,' was rescued, and led into a 'Glass House' in the center of 'The Red City.' A 'King in Khaki' knowing that I was an 'Amateur Gentleman' gave me something to supply the inner man and ushered me into room 'No. 318' The next day I went aboard the 'Shining Ferry' and together with the 'Ships Company' sailed for Boston. VVhile 'Homeward Bound' I served as a member of the 'Fourth Wfatch' 'To the Credit of the Sea.' And so 'The Vlfheels of Time' went round. Six days later, we entered Boston Harbor, 'Home from the Sea' and ready to serve under Petticoat Rulef After spending a week with 'The Members of the Family,' I drank from the 'Chalice of Courage' and told my 'Likely Story' at the 'Bachelor Dinner.' My 'Story of an Untold Love' became 'The Talk of the Town' and I was awarded this 'Gld Nest.' And so as an 'Ardent American' I have re- lated 'The -Ioyous Adventures of Aristide Pujol.' After Madden had finished this interesting narrative, seeing that he was going to talk more book-language, I said 'So Long, and departed. Coming down to civilization once more, I determined to go to the VValtham Opera House in order to hear a musical company that was playing there. The play had just started as I entered the door, and picture my surprise to see Mendelssohn at the piano and Katherine Sewall singing. Ch! such harmony. And when the misery was over, some person in the gallery clapped his hands. This brought them out again. As a result there were bouquets galore. I soon left the theatre an'l, seeing a crowd gathered at Hall's Corner, I decided to hnd out what was going on. Un coming closer, I perceived Bud Griggs standing on a soap-box trying to sell his Arab horses. The horses were origin-- ally black, but Bud and the sly Vlfalter had painted them so that they looked like pure white Arab horses. This is how these dealers tried to cheat the public, and they would have succeeded if it had not started to rain, whereby the horses lost color, as :lso did Bud and Sly VValter. They knew that the end was near, so they started to run up Moody street, but the crowd saw them and pursued the tall and short of the Arab horse-game out of the city. I saw Louise Davis and Genevieve Preblc car with such lightness of step that I was astounded. Later I learned that they were gymnasium teachers and also taught aesthetic dancing, together with the new up-to-date dances. Alice'Phelan had also taken a course in gymnastics, but was now coaching the Senior play cast, .having signed a ten-year contract. Pete Pendle- bury was touring the world, giving exhibi- tions of his wonderful strength and physique, which he claimed to have received from using the spacious gymnasium of the VV. H. S., and also by using O'I-Iara's Sweet-Oil treatment. You ask how Fitch got this oil? That I cannot tell, although running for a PROPII ECY he had been arrested while trying to catch the animal from which he obtained it. The famous sheriff, Leslie Russell, who arrested Claudie, did not find the body of the animal about Claudie's', person when he caught him, but there was something that seemed to follow Fitch wherever he went. This was sufficient to prove that he had been obtaining material for his oil. He was brought into court, over -which Judge Mor-- gan presided, his tall, stately person well hlling his loose gown. Helen Larkin was the lawyer pleading for Claudie, but she was not eloquent enough to defeat the at- torney for the State, Margaret Angus, whose eloquence moved the judge, jury and spectators to tears. She showed what a crime it would be to let a man loose who destroyed those harmless, defenceless ani- mals for the sake of his oil. Poor Fitch was convicted, and was forced to spend his earnings in buying his liberty. Doris Marr still upheld her reputation as an editor, as she now occupies the chair of editor of the VVoman's Journal, which had become one of the most prominent papers in the coun- try. Her editorials were of the best, dealing chiefly with college athletics. Whil'e in New York I met Qrland, who was a horse doctor, but he said he some- times had people come to him to be cured of their maladies. To these people he ad-- ministered the same medicines that he gave his horses, however, the same person never came twice. He said that he was married to Lucia Capwell, who made an excellent wife, except for her cooking, which con- sisted of fudge, cake and chocolates. Then Ileft Orland to roam about this great metropolis. After leaving Orland, I caught Ohnemus running in the direction of the Academy of Music with his watch in his hand. I asked him where he was going, and he replied that he had the leading part in a spectacular drama in the last act of which he made a clean sweep of it all. He would have given me some tickets but he had just given his last to John D. Rocke- feller. I decided to see this play and watch Uhnemus make a clean sweep of it. The first act was over and still no Russell, and so with the second and third. In the last scene of the fourth act, 'iTaxi leads a little French poodle across the stage. Then I perceived that he had a leading part, but where was the clean sweep? Ah, yes, he was doing that after the people had gone out. Leaving Qhnemus to complete his clean sweep I again started to see the sights. A large electric sign attracted my attention, on which I read asiI came nearer, The Amalgamated Qrder of Stenographersf' I decided to visit this order and see how it was organized. VVhen I came to the main door of this company I read the word Rehpargonets.', I then began to wonder if I were in the wrong place. I asked a passing person, who told me that I was going in the right direction, so I opened the door and walked in. The first person to greet me was Elsmere ,Co-tton, president of this order and also High Rehpargonetf' She informed me that this was a corre- spondence school, the purpose of which was to teach stenography by mail, and the order also tried to obtain positions for their grad- uate stenograph-ers. Wfhen I asked her the meaning of the name on the door, she led me into her private office and told me the true story of the Company. '4This society makes believe it is teaching stenography by mail, she began, but instead of that, we are obtaining husbands for ourselves. Of course, we have to teach some stenography to keep up appearances. This order is very exclusive and only former VV. H. S. sten- ographers are allowed to join. The present members are Edith Anderson, Mary Mc- Donald, Mildred Dicks, Marguerite Bingay and Stella Hay. Gladys Parsons was a member at one time, but we lost her at the very beginning. It is only a matter of a few weeks before this whole society will have to dissolVe because it will have no mem- PROPHECY bersf, I asked her why this chosen few had taken this way of getting married. She said, XVe love the little excitement that comes into this business, and also the fun of not knowing your future husband except by his handwriting. Even the word 'Reh- pargonets sounds mysterious, although it is only the word stenographer spelled back- wards. I left this society to continue its rushing business and went my way. Io- sephine Lally was singing in the Metropoli- tan Qpera House in New York, where she had signed a contract for 25 years. She had such a deep voice and could take a male part with such success that one of the actresses, not knowing she was a woman, began to make love to her. She was mak- ing money enough to buy Qhnemus out of his present position. Katharine Larner was a world's champion. Of course. you want to know what she was champion of. Well, she was the most bashful girl in the world and on this reputation had appeared before the large men's clubs of the world. By doing this she was making a name that would go down in history, and live for years and years. Surely I must not forget Hartmann, who became a mining engineer of great fame and wealth. He was working in a mine out in the Rocky lNIountains, far away from all civilization. During his career up to this time he had had but one slight' accident. He was down in the mine and was starting to light his pipe, with what he thought was a match, but was in reality a stick of dyna- mite. He usually carried a large number of these sticks in his pockets. After scratching this thought-to-be match on his trousers for about live minutes, he became angry and threw it fo-rcibly on the rocks near him. Goodby, Henry! He went up 2oo feet-and of course had to come back 2oo feet. But when he struck the ground, he got up, put his hand in his pocket, took out a match, lighted his pipe and walked away. It takes more than that to kill Hart- mann. Eileen MacCarthy and Elizabeth Daboll were writing a book entitled How to Make a Success in High School. This included the study of baseball, football, basketball and swimming. Fern Conner was illustrat- ing the book with pictures of athletes. Ethel Templar was giving piano lessons on very reasonable terms. She taught the pupil free of charge until he could play, then, when he gave notice of leaving, she would charge him 50 cents for his last les- son. Iust at present she was becoming very rich. George Furbush, alias Thomas Edison the second, since he lived so near to the water, had invented many useful objects to be used in water sports and water travelling. Among these things was a canoe which could be tipped in all directions without going over. One might even push one side under the water and still it would not roll over, and, furthermore, no water would rush into it. He invented oars that unseen hands manipulated, that is, one need only place them in the oarlocks and they would begin to work just as if somebody were pushing them. These made him rich and famous. But one invention made him hated by all who tried it, and that was a bathing suit. In order to wear this suit, one had to wish himself inside of it, and after wishing it on, one was not able to take it off. Olive Hopkins was a leader of society, after inheriting a large fortune. She in- vited me to dinner one day, and while I was seated on the window-seat, waiting for din- ner to be served, I heard Olive talking to the butcher's boy. She was saying that the piece of steak that she bought the other day was so tough that she could not cut it. The butcher boy told her that she was lucky, be- cause another customer down the street bought a piece of steak that was so tough he could not get his fork into the gravy. After hearing this conversation, I began to PLAY CAST SENIOR J- K!-? NJ N. nr. . .1-. fd .1 11X r ,, x -.f J ve ' . T... hx' W w '..'!I! . I ' 1 D H '3 G4 0 I 'I uv i. .

Wlieii the dinner was ready, I no- ticed a large piece of steak on the table and I saw Miss Hopkins placing an extra large portion of it on my plate. She said, This steak is so tender that it will almost melt in your mouth. I had to pay a very high price for it at the market. What would she say if she knew that I had heard that little conversation of hers. Society leaders are not always truthful. Albert Geoffrion was the proprietor of a large dry goods store in the city of Bos- ton. He had a wooden leg now, because, he said, his foot was continually going to sleep, and he could not be bothered wasting time to wake it. up. Time is money nowa- days. Myrtle Wyman was manager of the womenls clothing department where Paris- ian gowns were sold. Every day when Myrtle appeared on the street she had on a different Parisian gown. Wfhether this was for advertisement or not I do not know. However, she was always in style. Emily Bassett was in charge of the demonstrating department and she was making a great suc- cess of this branch of the business. When I entered the store, she was demonstrating some new coffee grinder. One need not go near the table in order to hear her little voice, for one might stand on the street and even then hear very plainly. Chester Ashworth had followed four roads of life, all at the same time. He was a milkman from 4 a. m.-8 a. m., a teacher of stenography from 8 a. ITL-I p. m., and a baseball coach from I p. m.-6 p. m., and a pianist from 6 p.m.-IO p. m. Then, after IO p. m., he made up for the three meals he had missed. His milk route was the most extensive in the country, but he was a fast boy and did it all himself. He taught sten- ography in the W. H. S. His baseball coaching was on the Starfish Giants. His piano playing was practised at the Apol- larium Theatre. So Chester was a busy man and living a strenuous life. This theatre, at which Chester plays the piano, was managed by Mr. Hollis Vaughan, who, after graduating from the Scenic Temple College of Ushering, had taken a course at the Qrpheum College on the Art of Managing. After this he had undertaken the management of the Appoi- larium. He stages only Shakespearian plays, he himself taking the leading part, Marjorie McGahan taking the leading lady's role. She has made such a success in these plays that she had received large offers to appear in New York theatres. However, she had refused them because she would rather work for Hollis. I asked Hollis how he came to be a Shakespearian actor and this is how he answered me: I, together with 'Macbeth' and 'King Lear,' set out dur- ing the 'Tempest' to the Court of 'King Henry the VIII' On the 'Twelfth Night' we with the 'Merchant of Venice' and 'Two Gentlemen from Verona' arrived on the scene in time to see 'The Taming of the Shrewf W'hile at court 'Hamlet' told us of his 'Midsummer Nights Dream' and 'Julius Caesar! of his 'Love's Labours Lost.' 'Coriolanus' gave numerous points on act- ing, and so I became a Shakespearian actor. Now, as 'King john' says, 'You Can Take It' 'As You Like It' for 'All's Well That Ends Well.' H Olive Daley, alias Beatrice Fairflax, was writing articles for the Boston American magazine section. Her articles consisted chieiiy of poetry on the different seasons of the year, athletic stories and some hints on love and sentiment. Grace Towne was successfully carrying on the spring-water business and also the circulating library. There was no danger of Towne's spring running dry because Grace had discovered a way to prevent it from doing so. Every night she poured water, taken from a faucet in the house, down a hidden pipe which led to the source of the spring, and so people continued to PROPHECY receive Towne's Pure Spring Water as long as Grace lived. Dorothy XVhitney was in full charge of the girls' gymnastic classes at the Free Reading Ro-om. She also taught the classes how to swim, she herself having crossed the continent giving exhibitions on high diving and swimming. She had made her reputation as a long distance swimmer by swimming across the Charles River in I5 minutes. Merton Frye was an organist in Grace Church in New York. Although he was not the head organist he had a chance to strike a note once in a while, but not very often. He was offered a permanent posi- tion and increase of salary over that which he received in IQI3 if he stayed and played the hymns in the XY. I-I. S. He refused this generous offer, however, although if he had accepted it he might have become a rich man on the salary he would have received. Lucy lYhite was touring the country as the world's greatest lady comedienne, al- though as I remember Lucy she was a nice, quiet, little girl. Her jokes and funny stories were all of her own making. Arthur Ela was auditor of the city of Sacramento, having been elected by the women of the city, who thought his voice the most even and sweetest they had ever heard. His campaign speeches were made before the womens clubs of that city. He also edited a newspaper in which he wrote articles on how to manage a theatre and also a number of arguments on why the United States should not intervene in Mexico. These were read by the President himself in order that he might receive some sound logic on the question. Grace Hicks was a missionary in China and was writing a book on Chinese customs. She was living and following the same cus- toms as the Chinese in order to make her book more true to life. I do not know whether she ate the same kind of food, but I hope she didn't. Because of her peculiar calling, she became a quiet little girl, never smiling at even the funniest joke. Edgarton Polly was a mechanical engi- neer and what he did not know about a chromoscylograph, the electrophorus, the ellipsograph, and metaphysics, was not worth knowing. For all this he could not take a bicycle apart, and then put it together again, without having some part of the bicy- cle left over. Leavita Kingsbury was Va dancing teacher with many pupils, the majority of whom were men. She herself gave solo dances before the crowned heads of Europe. I do not know with what these heads were crowned. I later learned from a newspaper reporter that Leavita knew one solo dance, which she danced before these crowned heads. XYhen she was in Spain, it was a Spanish dance: in Italy it was an Italian dance-and so on through all the countries. George Cormey was writing a book en- titled How to Study Poetryf' with chap- ters on allegory, force, etc. I-Ie was illus- trating the book with pictures which he him- self had drawn. These pictures were of a very general nature, including mostly heads of Gibson girls. He was also writing a book on solid geometry and the fourth dimension. George was some boy. Louise XVhitmore was teaching algebra in the Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology, having received this position be- cause of her high standing in algebra in the VV. H. S. Blanche Childs was a dancing teacher, her specialty being the Highland Fling. She was giving exhibitions of this dance throughout the countries of Europe. How- ever, she avoided Scotland and all places where there was a large number of Scots. Raymond Mills was the famous editor of the Boston American comic section, hav- ing won this high position after a four year course at college and extra hard work after his college career. This high position was not the only thing he had Won. He had PROPII ECY swum a race after Ruth and had finally landed in first place. Under his great lead- ership the pictures became more highly color-ed, the paper easier to tear, and so in these and many other ways the paper pros- pered. He had appointed Ira Ames the staff artist of his paper, 'and a very good artist Ira made. In one copy of this paper Ira drew a picture of a young man with a violin which was larger than the man him- self. The violinist would never have been able to put the violin under his chin because of its great size. The words under the pic- ture were: I-Cry a C M J-A-Mes 4 s J. Mills, in his editorial column, which measured one inch by o-ne inch wrote: Ye olde fashioned readers of the Boston American may be interested to know that Ira Ames drew this picture of himselff' Another little note which he crowded into his column was: Our esteemed fellow cit- izen, james Brown, Esq., will go to the hos- pital tomorrow to be operated upon for the removal of his appendix, by Dr. Marshall. He will leave a wife and two childrenf, Raymond must have been trying to ruin Dr. Marshalls practice. Caroline Grant and Hortense Thompson were famous Claribels. having attained this high honor by hard work in the W. H. S. They were travelling all over the world giving exhibitions at which they showed great speed in typewriting. They could both typewrite 758 words a minute. Hor- tense was a little faster than Carolyn, doing usually 758 words and one extra letter in the one minute. Roland Eaton was a farmer out in the back woods of Maine. He had discovered a fertilizer which made the soil so rich that crops could be raised in it at any time of the year. Many men had endeavo-red to find out the secret of this fertilizer, but Ro- land had his farm surrounded by armed men who prohibited every one from tres- passing. The Secretary of Agriculture of the U. S. tried to interview Roland and se- cure some of this fertilizer, but he was un- successful. Then the President of the U. S. came and endeavored to do the same thing, but Roland could not be interviewed, so no doubt the secret will die with Roland. Helen Bartel was a member of the stock company which was playing at the Boston Theatre. She took the heavy part of the play and carried it very well. Fred Ester- brooks, after long service in a book bindery, had found a way by which he might im- prove on the time in finishing a book. He invented a machine so complicated that one could not see how or where it started, that bound the books, while Fred sat back and smoked his pipe of clay. There was a large tube at one end in which he dumped a pile of books. After five minutes, these books would come out of the other end all sewed, covered, washed and ready to be sent away. This had been done wholly by the machine. See what a genius the class of 1913 had in its midst inthe form of a little, blushing, bashful boy! Florence Hession and Gladys Harvey were members of Congress, and very fiery members they made. They were called the Double H club. Wfhen the bill for uni- versal woman suffrage was brought into Congress, they supported it to the best of their ability, which was a great deal in the way of speech-making. Each one spoke two days and two nights on woman suf- frage, they would have kept on talking had not Congress given in to the proposition. These two quiet little girls have starved the mighty Congress into submission. Albert Kittredge was running a garage on Main street, and also sold motor cycles. etc. One day as I passed by his garage. I heard a loud noise and saw a grey streak fiy past. It stopped in the middle of the streetg then it went backwards at the same great speed. This was kept up for about five minutes, when, on one return trip, the auto exploded, and a minute later, Ikey was seen coming down slowly through the PROP ll IQCY air by means of an open umbrella. NVhen he reached the gro-und, I asked him what he was trying to do. and he said he was trying to invent an automobile which would start by scratching a match along the front tire. The engine was not supposed to stop until the car returned to the same spot from which it started. Every time he tried out this new car he carried an umbrella so that he might reach the ground safely. I left Albert to his new auto and went my way. XVilfred justason, the Terrible Turkf' because he remained so long in the Congres- sional Library looking at the pictures, had of guide to these able to pick out a classes for a long been given the position pictures. He was now picture for the Senior time to come. He was a very quiet young man now. I think that he must have been crossed in love, because every once in a while one might hear him say, Uh Phoebe, Phoebe, Phoebe ! Carl Eaton was the football coach of the Yale bull-dogs, and he certainly had some team. He had them coached so well that no team in the whole U. S. would dare to play them. He himself could defeat the whole eleven dogs, but he and only he, knew how to do it. Carl also wrote a book on how to make love according to the 18th century idea. XY e all know that he had lots of practice in this kind of love making. Alex. Johnstone was the leader of a choir in a village back in the wilderness. Alex. had his singers coached finely, but they seemed to forget to hold on to the last beatg so Alex. himself sang this certain song and on the last note he went do-do-do so that the singers would hold the note three beats. This was a very good way to teach them. but when they came to sing the words to a hymn it was a different story. Alex. could be heard above the rest of the singers and so when they came to the line, Let all crea- tures bow, Alex. sang Let all creatures bow-wow-wow. It sounded great, just like a dog fight. Vvarren Vilhitcomb had suddenly become rich, consequently he did not have to work. He seemed to be slowly going insane. He hired Gertrude Hope, who had signed a life contract to play her violin all day, and make it sound like howling cats. She did this very well and so pleased XVarren. Every once in a while XVgarren would say: All the world's a rage, And the men and women simply crazy, They have their neckties and their hose, And they wear gaudy colors in their time, These being seven styles. First, Hartmann. growling and raging, fixing his fiashy tie, Then Ela. investing in firemen's socks, ljashful and blushing, trying to show his fiowing locks, Next, Ohnemus, wild and wooly, quick in matching, Seeking honor even in ladies' eye. Then McNeil, with long, large head, full of wise sayings. The sixth scene shifts into the lean and slippered pantaloon, Such as Griggs is wont to sport, XYith hat on side, groaning daily as the French comes on. Last scene of all, that ends this long eternal misery Is second childishness. As Cormey, squirming under teacher's eye Sans excuse, sans books. sans lessons, sans everything. And so YVhitcomb raves. VVhile walking along Main street I heard a person running behind me crying, Eureka! Eureka! I turned around and there saw john MacNeil running towards me. I feared. at first, that he might. be dressed as the man who first said Eureka, but he was not. I stopped him and asked him what he had found and he said, Come, Eureka, home, Eureka, with me, Eureka. So I went to his house with him. I guess his discovery must have affected his mind PROP Ll ECY because. after entering the house, he threw his hat out of the window, and tried to hang a cigar stubb on a peg in the hat rack. He told me to sit down while he performed his experiment. He brought out a bowl filled with vinegar, in which he placed a small wooden hoop. 'After I5 minutes he took the hoop out again and bent it into a square, exclaiming, mAh, I have found it. I have squared the circle. He then told me how he had studied mathematics, taught mathe- matics, and eaten mathematics in order to make this discovery of squaring the circle. So Johnnie had made his name in the world. This excitement had made me grow thirsty, and without stopping to think I drank the bowlful of vinegar. I felt a sharp thumping in my stomach, and I thought I was approaching my doom, when I woke up and found a little fellow, who had made his way to my retreat, jumping up and down on my stomach. So I re- turned to this world once more, and became again a member of the Class of 1913 of the W. H. S. 9? X NQQO QM 4, 0 J' 'K gtobffk ff ,gov p f f.J g 0 O swag lg N,.xxs-gawln 1 X -Suu? .li ? j K!

However, let us not enlarge upon our prepa- rations for, or our hrst appearance in H i g h School. We will no-t deny that we felt anx- ious. lndeed, we yield a point and say we felt extremely anxious, but we positively refuse to have ourselves recorded as arising at an early hour, and, after a hur- ried breakfast, hastening fearfully toward the sacred portal of the temple of learning. At first, sad to say, we did make some mistakes, but we always managed to retire gracefully. As for the patronizing upper classmen, we endured their smiles and com- ments, consoling ourselves with thoughts of sweet revenge in our own turn. Vlfhen a few weeks had passed, and we no longer felt strange in our new surround- ings, we held a class meeting and elected Howard Dowd president, Helen Bartel vice- president and Frank Kelly secretary and treasurer. The die for a school pin had been se- lected, and we were the second class to have the honor of wearing the new pins. This plan of a school-rather than a class-sym- bol removed the discussions which were sure to have arisen as to whether blue or green looked better with gold, or if we should have a shield, a triangle or an oval to set off our blazing numerals. During this year our algebra teacher, Miss Palmer, resigned and we waited impa- tiently to see who would take her place. Enter- Miss Spencer. She gave us one withering glance and we have been abso- lutely tame and harness- broken ever since. As soon as the warm days with hints of shady walks arrived, we agreed that life was just a bur- den, not a song, and we decided to drift peace- fully to- the end of the year without any more effort. The fates de- creed otherwise, for our teachers 'soon made us understand that we must either work or move. We chose the former and reached vacation time safely with nothing more than a few and the alluring prospects of summer study to mar our hard won bliss. Upon our return in September we were armed with resolutions to do or die. Vlfell, we did, and the resolutions died, without a struggle. How could we be expected to behave in Room 16? How could we be ex- pected to remember that Bocaccio was not the name of a lVlohammedan mosque? The mediaeval tests for supposed criminals fur- nished no end of speculation as to why the victim could not swim if he so desired. Kelly had decided views on this subject. A series of calamities took place in Room 25 under the patronage of Yack's famous H ISTORY Turks, among which might be mentioned the battle during which Stone's lunch was spread on the fioor before the delighted gaze of the gentle THB, and at the feet of Mrs. Reade, who hal just entered, and the little presentation of Cinderella and the Class Slipper, with Giasson playing the title role. Chemistry this year provided the original 57 varieties of excitement, sodium and chlorine gas being the favorite playthings. On one occasion Mr. Goodrich demanded a piece of finger nail for a nitric acid test. After a long and profound consultation one girl announced that he could have a piece of her littlest nail, but when Mr. Good- rich drew out a huge jack-knife, and has- tened smilingly toward the obliging one, the eternal feminine promptly changed her mind. XYe were willing to study chemistry, but we were not willing to become living victims for science. At a secret meeting we were received into the Demosthenes Club, and we lis- tened with breathless interest to an impas- sioned speech on XYhat Not to Do and How to Do ft. The laws and penalties were explained and soon we gave promise of rivaling the namesake of our organiza- tion. Some of us firmly insisted that prac- tise alone makes perfect, andwe spoke un- tiringly-three, four, and even five times. Three cheers for Demosthenes! Clfficers had been elected again, this year the choice being Bernard Qliver as presi- dent, Margaret RlacCarthy vice-president and Frank Kelly secretary and treasurer. Plans were soon made for our first social. and again we were not as the others, for in glancing over former class records we find that the first class affair many times verges on the brink of failure, socially speaking. This, however, was not our experience. XVhile many of the boys did look a trifle self-conscious, this restraint soon vanished under the influence of that democratic game of Drop the Handkerchieff' Our second social was more enthusiastic than the first, and we began to feel that we really knew one another. This summer vacation passed more quickly than the first one, and it seemed but when we were back again as juniors: that is, some of us were. a few weeks This year will be remembered forever by those who elected botany and physiology. XYe spent hours trying to find a class to which a bedraggled fiower might belong, only to be told when we had found it, or when we thought we had, that we had for- gotten to allow for the missing anthers and sepals, and hence had the wrong class. -Then the physiology! XVe soon learned why a solar plexus punch meant a knock- out, and could almost trace the course of the circulating blood without evident effort. One day a mysterious package was opened and the rigid corpse of a fish was tenderly laid on the lecture table for an experiment. Now let it be said that we have seen fishes and fishes, but never a fish with so much to him as this one. The renewal of botany in the spring was welcomed, and our one tramp up Bear Hill proved quite interest- ing, especially for Alex. About this time white cards began to fiy. Mary soon had a corner on the market and competition ceased. Nearly every day she would make a trip to the Lion's Den with her bit of snowy pasteboard, and emerge,- smiling. v NYe wrote many little papers in English historv to make the work easier. Une might ask, easier for whom? Notices soon began to appear in the junior rooms requesting the payment of class dues. These notices changed to stern demands, then frantic appeals and Ray- mond's self-importance increased daily. The girls dashed about looking worried and preoccupied, and Leavita informed us that her gown just wouldn't drape. The great night finally arrived and we appeared in all the splendor of our fine raiment. The His- H ISTUR Y tory and Prophecy were read, and then we danced. Oh, yes! Wie danced and danced. For those who became heated with their ex- ertions there was punch, very delicious punch, according to our great critic, Cor- mey. For those who 'did not heat, there was still the dance. That night the realization came that our days in High School were nearly over, and when we appeared in September we bore ourselves with the quiet dignity suited to Seniors. Clf Miss Spencer objects, we'll strike this from the record.j Many hitherto obscure stars began to shine. As brilliant examples may be men- tioned Morgan in German, Cormey in geometry and French and Q'Hara in every- thing. Ikey discovered an astonishingly unique pronunciation for d-u-k-e, which convulsed the class until Mr. Wartl kindly explained that Albert's French had led him astray. It might well do sol Officers were elected for the last time, Raymond Mills, l-lelen Bartel and Marjorie McGahan being the Class choice. Plans for a social were begun at once, and like all the others, it was an unquestioned good time. English this year proved quite exciting, particularly the arguments for and against the Movies, although we couldn't just see the appropriateness of Dink's cow anec- dote. This, however, is nothing unusual. Mr. Ward's intensely dramatic recital of the first witch scene from Macbeth was far better than the most shivery of Sir Ar- thur Conan Doyle's wild tales, while Fitch's learned discussion of the use of shall', and will furnished a wealth of material for deep thought. Our Senior Dance was carried through with unequalled success, Raymond appear- ing in all the glory of 'evening dress, and dashing around with his usual zeal, trying to be everywhere all the time. Soon calls came for the rivals of Ellen Terry and john Drew to meet the Senior 'P'ay coach and with very little trouble the cast was selected. The choice this year was As You Like lt, the prettiest of all Shakespeare's plays, and we all looked for- ward anxiously to its presentation. Rehearsals were started in earnest and Alice grew quite thin under the strain of trying to suppress her laughter during her shepherd-sweetheart's ardent wooing. Wfhen the curtain was drawn on the first act of our play. we knew that it would go down as a success. Thinking of the last social, we wondered how the Duke could have the heart to banish Celia to the lone- some Forest of Arden, but of course it had to be done, however harsh it seemed. This excitement had no sooner subsided than the trip to Washington was being frantically discussed, and the password with the girls was, Do you REALLY like dark blue serge, or-. Mr. Burke an- nounced that while he was not competent enough to advise the young ladies just what to take. a suitcase would be all sufficient. VX'hat would we do without Mr. Burke! On Friday, April 25. the thirty-seven pupils who had decided to make the trip started, while some three hundred enthu- siastic friends cheered themselves hoarse by way of manifesting their good wishes. The next week was one round of pleas- ure, with large slices of real excitement here and there. The travelers learned many things not scheduled to be learned during a trip of this kind. Dink discovered that a tire escape is not the easiest or the safest way to gain entrance to one's apartment. Carolyn knows now that Xlfashington hearts cannot be cast aside lightly, and some of the boys have told us that even in the best of our hotels there are apt to be undesirable emigrants, small, but very annoying. Since their return, Harold, Carl, Vaughn and Ela have declared that they favor very strict alien laws. Thus do we gain a broad understanding of a disputed situation. XYe return to our classes after the all too brief vacation, cheered by the prospect of 11 ISTORY ever nearing gracluation. Yet tonight, as we are assembled here, who of us does not feel a pang of regret when he thinks of the meaning of these exercises. In a few weeks more we shall have finished our course in High School. XVhatever the fu- ture inay bring, let us always remember these clays, which, if we but knew it, were our happiest and wherever we may be, let us always have a welcome for a member of XV,altham High School, but particularly for a member of our own great Class of 1913. n A J' '25 ,zs 1 An, G80 'QQ Y Q,' 1 i 7 Y E I 7 fax K' i ,w 1 Q ,1- Q fij Q: 4 ff 0 5 4 I Os! 0:23 'E' CHESTER ASHWORTH, Captain BASEBALL TEANI 1 ,J -fp Q90 1 14 I- '1.' 1 w ,E-r J - u ,, w. .- .
