For the other girl, which happened to be Marjorie Hack, I foresaw a future among books, quantities of them in shelves around her. ' She would then become a librarian in one of the large colleges; where, because of her jollity and brightness, she was indispensable. The next of the class to come to me were two. young men, well built arid both quite atheletic appearing. For the first, our class Poet, I io-resnw-a very airy future. For he was to become very much interested in airships and after many successful aerial trips, he Would strive to reach one of the other planets; and at -last gaining his goal, he would remain there for'many years, hoping to receive inspirations, undis- turbed for his brilliant poems. By the hand of the other, Bob Cuy- ler, I saw that he would win great re- nown as editor-in-chief of the New York Sun—instead of. the High School Hammer, and that his brilliant edi- torials would find much favor in the eyes of a certain young woman, whom I have previously mentioned as gaining no little fame as an actress tn the me- tropolis of America. The next to appear were Ruth and Theresa; for the former I foretold a fu- ture spent in the pursuit of knowledge; probably in later years she would be- come a great lecturer. Her name being known throughout the world as the most brilliant speaker in her line.

To Ralph Coy- kendall, the president of the Junior class we bequeath a Boynton life-pre- server, $ne box of Pear's soap and two Turkish towels, for we believe that he will have great need for them, if he re- ceives as many- acts of Baptism from the next year's Junior class as he did from the cites of 1910. To Stiffy Stiles I bequeath a mirror and two pair of bright red socks. Char- les Baldwin we leave an ear-trumpet in order that he may hear that which be now misses by not having the required amount of stretch in his neck Oh Chtaal vera Whlttler but h*r* That he might tell to thee And put tn more endearing- rhyme Our hearts propinquity.

And then just as the sun goes down May your thoughts turn once again To the class who lived their motto, The Class of 1910. . .

Next there came to my tent a rather small girl with wavy brown hair and sparkling eyes. Just as she entered tie tent, I heard a happy laugh ripple forth and I knew it was Emma Vialls. For her I could see great renown a s a rival of Worth & Redfern in designing gowns for the Royalty. Later on, Alice and Florence Short appeared. The former I saw as a strong advocate of Woman's sufferage, going through the country and giving lectures on votes for women, and un- doubtedly obtaining the position of Mayor of Newark,' at the time that this place becomes a city. For Florence, I foretold a literary future, gaining great renown as a.short story writer for the leading American magazines. Following these two, there came in a tall fellow, with dark hair, deep blue eyes and a large nose, which showed that he was a born leader. Upon look- ing at bis hand, I discovered that he would be a great speaker, both politi- cally and on other topics of the day. It was with sorrow that I perceived one great drawback to his career, a laugh- ing malady, which as years went on, would become more frequent and un- controllable antil finally, he would be obliged to give up his career, as a speaker, and would settle in a secluded spot, where he could give up to his laughing mania without disturbing .the teeth and the latest pamphlet, out con- taining full directions on 1 the proper way to butt in. To Esther Heath one box of Gorton's boneless codfish.' To Ruth Alierton a complete kitchen outfit of Reed tinware. To John Nieskes one pair of non-squeakable shoes. To Constance King a Stevens air-gun. To Miss Brettle a license permitting her to go with High School boys. To Harry Havens one razor. To Carl Schumira we leave one night a week with Ruth Alierton.

In her hand I saw lines showing that in the future years she would start a kindergarten for young noys^between the ages of 12 and 18. But this fact did not surprise me in the least, for we all know what a fondness Cassie has al- ways had for the younger' High' School boys. Shortly after there came to me two of my class-mates, one a sweet-faced girl, the other a fellow with black hair, fine- cut features and wearing eyeglasses. For both of these 4 stianga to say, I fore- saw a'futurein a cozy little home. It was 1-4 evening, a fire was burning cheerfully ' 'in the grate, the young woman was seated at a piano, running her fingers softly over the keys, the door opened, and the young man came in, picked up his clarinet and 'followed the tunes which the young woman was playing, probably some of the songs which fhey had played some years -before, with their classmates gathered about them, singing heartily. There two are our class musicians, Marie and Claude. And last but not least to appear was our Class President, who had held off as long as possible, thinking it not proper for one holding so prominent a position as president of the class of 1910, to be seen in a gypsy tent, but he finally succumbed to his curiosity. I saw that Jerome would try his hand at many things, among them, selling sporty skirts and ties to unsophisticated youths. But his early taste of glory before the footlights would finally draw him to the great dramatic center, where, after very few years of study, he, would become the leading comedian of the day. Evening was coming on, and I realized that all my classmates had, sometime during the day, appeared be- fore me. Wearied with my days work, yet joyous over my success, I was about to make my way homeward when I heard a soft rustling at the back of my tent. Lifting up the flap to see who might be there, who should ^ep in but Professor \Fort. He said, ffiat he had been awaiting his oppor- tunity to come to my tent, when no one was near to see him. I giggled behind my hand, for I realized how perfect had been my disguise, that even the keen eyes of Professor Fort did . not see heath my make-np. But the brilliant future which I foresaw for him, I think is best left unrevealed. *&.*',,Newark, hr\Y. # Sftah-fcmfl CM*. P^Ml,MMi,t|^ •iotfoeorpoMeat'r Mr. Van Dyck then introduced Claude Palmatier, Editor-in-Chief of \The High School Hammer.\ In turn, he introduced the editors of the several de- partments as follows: Personals, Rob- ert Cuyler; Want ads, Bertha O'Hara; Lost and Found, Cassie Roe; Did you Ever, Theresa Bobrowsky; Advice to Juniors, Ruth Tyler. The papers were very good and created a lot of fun, but space does not permit us to'publish them. They consisted mostly of bits of fun thrown at various High School pupils. Each speaker was cordially ap- plauded at the close of his or her re- marks and the Master of Ceremonies then introduced Miss Frances Snyder, who gave the Class Will, which we print in full: j CLASS WILL , In the name of God, Amen, we, the Class of 1910, of the Newark High School of the city of Newark, County of \Vayne , State of New Xorlt, being of Sound mind and memory, and consider- ing the uncertainty of this life, do there- fore make, ordain, publish, and declare for him, his smoking den'in the base- ment to Harold Noble, who announces that he will be some sport in his Senior year. \ i To Charles Van Auken we ieaye a permit to ramble upon the hunting ground after the roe. To Corwin Beal we leave 1 qt. bottle of Mrs.. Winslow's soothing syrup ; dose, one teaspoonful after many stings from a High School girl. To Gladys White one doxen 5c packages of Boeman's chewing gum and one gross of Clark's soda checks redeemable at Jones Drug Store. To Florence Booth and Bob Cuyler a copyright for new volume of astron- omy which was compiled during their midnight observations. To Roy Martin, that little Juuior boy who made bis appearance at a Senior party minus his shoes, we bequeath one box of holeproof hosiery. To Frances Reane and Alice Herendeen one bucket to catch their tears. Should their noble president, Coykendali, be captured by next year's Juniors. To Miss Longwel! our best wishes that she may become preceptress of the high school in 1920. To Edwin York two new teeth. To Miss Alice Herendeen one dozen sheets of popular music and a bottle of camphor. Emma Vialls wills part of her ever-glibbering tongue to Myron Warner. To Carl Schaman the use of Garlock's porch which is the next best thing to Allerton's. To Raymond Lyon a box of sleep tablets to be taken before dances in order that he will be willing to go home before 3 o'clock in the morning. Rnth. Tyler wills- her_unusaal ability for star gazing to Archie Scheer. To Charles Van Auken we leave a patent on his new garden hose. Mr. Cuyler leaves his ability to stamp in walking across the high school floor to Edna Freeh. Miss Theresa Bobrowsky leaves her over abundance of knowledge in \trig\ to Ralph Coykendali. Since our beloved professor has had snch trouble raising chickens this spring, we bequeath to him a double j back-action incubator, warranted kind and gentle, to start without hitching, and to hatch- in nine days 400 chickens from -300 eggs instead of two chickens from 500 eggs. To Everett Baxter one half dozen of loveless taps. To Ada B. Parker, the English teacher, an Albany C. B. degree in law. To the juniors-two bottles of tobasco sauce and 1911 pounds of push energy and sticktoitiveness combined so that by rightly using these ingredients they will save Professor Fort from premature old age. To Bert Cortevflle we bequeath the very energetic Laverne Schuman as assistant janitor. To Evelyn Garlock the position of chief arbitrator at the Lee, Schuman, Dee, Gilbert, Peace Conference. Cassie Roe bequeaths ten dances to- night to Vincent Roche from Fred Hoff's program. Laird Van Dyck wills his old cob pipe to Walter Gilbert. Glen Colburn bequeaths to Miss Ada B. Parker the two hours time which he took from her study of law on Sunday afternoon June 12. To Clayton Wolf one hair ribbon to tie up-his bangs. To Mils Wakefield I bequeath my team of Vergil ponies. To the Board of Education we be- queath them success in establishing their popular ward school system a new heating and ventilating system, likewise we constitutional/ appoint as executor Benjamin Joseph Cortev'iHe, Hereby revoking all former wills by us made, in witness whereof we have here to put our hands and seal on this 20th day of June ansodomini 1910 Class of 1910.

And not only must there be a choice, but there must be a career.

One of the best things of the evening was the Class Poem by Glenn Colburn.. Mr. Colburn has a fine voice and his delivery was graceful and effective. His poem received a most cordial ap- plause from those present. The poem was as follows: Commencement exercjses at the opera house Tuesday night passed off very satisfactorily. The house was well filled and the class of nineteen rnembers, gowned appropriately for the occasion, made a pretty appearance on the stage. Principal Fort presided and introduced the several speakers. Music for the occasion was furnished by Paltnatier's Orchestra and the invocation was given by Rev. S. M. Hogenboom. Miss Eliza- beth Le May gave the salutatory as follows: •* Members of the Board of Education, Mr. Fort, Teachers and Friends: It Is with great pleasure that we welcome you tonight, and we appre- ciate the honor you do us in coming here to participate in our graduation: We realize that as students of the nigh school we owe mucn to you an for the interest you have manifested in -us from the beginning and for the many favors you°have shown us. We are glad of the opportunity this even- ing to extend to you our aincerest_gra- Commencement is always a time of rejoicing: a time to be associated with glad hearts arid happy voices; a time when the flowers bloom and the birds sing and all nature is at her best; a time when teachers and pupils alike, from the kindergarten to the high school, look forward to tne long period of rest and recreation, for no matter now pleasant and profitable our school work has been it is certainly a true saying ~ thst \all work and no play- makes Jack a dull boy.\ The last few weeks especially have been filled to overflowing with good times for the Senior Class. Teachers, parents, and friends have done their best' to make tbis, our commencement, the happiest time of our lives. This is an evening 1 toward which we have all been- looking forward ever since we beeame students of the high school four year* ago; this 1* the goal towards which all our efforts have been put forth, and now that we are all as- sembled to enjoy this evening together r tbe Class of 1910 bids you a cordial welcome. A solo by Mr. Herbert Quance was\ 'followed by Frank Wi'ebald's valedic- tory: Members of the Board, Teachers and Friends: This is the occasion when we as a class must say farewell to dear old Newark High School and all that the name Implies. But before doing so we wish to thank each and every teacher connected with the school, which to all.! has been so dear. We wish to thank them for their patient and increasing diligence In our behalf. To them we owe the deepest debt of gratitude which unlike money debts can never be paid by paying; extra for the years that have slipped by. They, by tfialr kind- ness and faithfulness exhibited toward us through the four years of our high school career have made the school, as it were a second home to us. we are leaving that home, but we are leaving it together, nineteen mem- bers strong. This time in our lives i* doubly sad when we consider the fact that possi- bly this la the last occasion on which we shall all be together to answer, to oar names when the roll of the class of 1910 Is called. The evening of our school life Is now upon us. The snn I* setting in all Its glory and splendor. A new-day Is about to dawn. We are setting but to win each for himself or herself the great battle of life. , To you, Newark High School, we *ay farewell. The same to you, _ kind teachers, onr dearest friends. To you, Newark High Sonbol; forever farewell. .__ -» JOM. it is a good ques- tion because It Implies that a boy must make something of himself, that no- uody else can do it for .vim, and that ire may make of himself pretty nearly anything that he ohooses. The first step in discussing the choice. •>f a .career is to divide occupations- nt» their^teadlug claH8SBT~agrlculture, (he trades and manufacturing, mercan- tile business, -transportation, journal- ism, the so-called learned professions jf theology, law, medicine, and educa- .lon and a multitude of scientific pro- fessions. In considering these we must .ook first for the opportunities of earh- .ng a livelihood, second for the oppor- tunities of developing one's natural powers, and third for the opportunities >t social usefulness. Farming is the oldest business in the .vorld, next to hunting and war. As practiced under the conditions of the past generation Jt has -few attractions -i*or enterprising young men. The hard, jnremltting labor, the long hours, the lonely life, the Isolation from educa- tional opportunities: the scanty supply jf ready money, the diminishing re- turns of wornout soils—all these dis- advantages have combined to give farming a bad name in the eastern jtates. But for twenty years there has jeen growing a movement for scientific agriculture which seems 'likely to oring about a great change in the con- Jitions of farm life. The east is learning from the west aow to cultivate the soil as a modern justness proposition, with close atten- tion to the relation between cost and profit, and the profits are increasing in proportion to the economies introduced. It is true that much remains to be done oefore farming will satisfy ambitious men who have no natjiraJLJUklng.--for' jouirtry-Iifer-No\frunt31 we have really '^ood roads and a more equitable sys- tem of selling farm produce will agri- culture he in New York what it al- ready is in some narta \* *•— —* meet the regular expenses and-, the' de- mands for church extension an<J mis- sionary work. As the older generation ofi liberal givers passes' away there does not appear to: be a younger gen- eration equally liberal to take Its place, , There is no use in ignoring the fact that the drift of the age is away from the churches. A generation ago the leading families in any town or city were pretty sure to be prominent supporters of the churches. Now the leading families spend Sundays on au- tomobile tours or reading the papers. Fortunately it is true that the young people's movement—and~the ttewwmis^ Bionary movement have raised up lead- ers who are devoted to the cause for .which the church stands, and we are perhaps on the verge of a great re- vival of religious activity; but thoso leaders are for the most part not men, of means, and while the pastors' work may be aided by their labors his in- come will hot be materially increased by their subscriptions. What chance does the ministry offer for self-development? Apparently more than most other professions,' for the minister is engaged in the daily con- templation of the highest themes and the practice of the most unselnsh vir- tues.

Unfortunately the trades are not to any large extent recr-uited from young men who have had more tban a gram- mar school education. On the one hand the mechanics usually come from fam- ilies which cannot afford to spare the services of boys after the-age of four- teen or fifteen. On the other hand social' prejudice against-manual labor I's so absurdly prevalent that the aver- I age young man would rather earn f 12 for $16 a week as clerk or bookkeeper 1 than to receive from f 18 to 121 as car- penter or mason or electrician. . The practical knowledge of a trade is often .the only opening- tor~asr~oppjr- tunlty In some branch of manufactur- ing'which may lead to independence. There are now trade schools in the larger cities, where a boy may learn from competent teachers in two or three years what he could only lnper- rectly absorb in a longer time as a helper tinder the prevailing union sys- tem. The Mechanics'Institute Jof Koch- ester i s such a school and Is constant- ly extending its usefulness. «*»»«•»- D _p ...I... . UU1C 1 In many communities he hrust stand as the guardian of a body of fixed and unalterable doctrine, which constitutes a closed book, not subject to reconsideration or revision. In no other profession Is this attitude toward truth demanded or tolerated. The physician changes his physiology, his pathology and his therapeutics in accordance with new discoveries and the general progress of his profession. The lawyer, recognizing certain funda- mental principles of law and eauity, expects to see them restated\ aW*ap- plled in a hundred different ways as statute law and judicial Interpretation advance. The teacher expects to be always free to - ohange his position on any point of his subject, either because :new facts have been discovered or be- cause he has discovered new light on old facts. But under present condi- tions the minister's rights of investiga- tion and discovery are limited by the creed; written or unwritten, of his ohurch. The unwritten creed is fre- quently more rigid than the' written, and the customs and traditions of the church more powerful than either. Young man of earnest purpose and ac- tive minds brought up in the more conservative churches .frequently hope to serve their generation by introduc- ing a liberal heaven into the denomin- ation, and they almost invariably suf- fer jiome jp_er_secjition_ in, the-attempt. ^Nevertheless, many cases. have been known in late' years in which such an attempt has been successful, and the result has more than repaid- the tem- porary sacrifice.' The opportunity of the minister for self-development mor- ally la, or ought to be, unlimited; his opportunity for intellectual growth and evolution Is largely dependent on his surroundings and personal force, , Opportuntles for social service in the ministry are increasing; Though the ohurch does not directly engage to any large extent In the work of organized charity, civic reform and similar caus- es, any well-equipped pastor has abundant opportunities for lng with others in these fo....„ „.. ac- tivity.

The American high school has been called the people's college. On these June evenings in every city and town in the land there are white frocks and roses, youthful eloquence and diplomas,. praise for the past and high hopes for the future. In every such audience there are the proud parents and the admiring friends. .After the year* of schooling with their up* and downs, thetr triumph* and defeats, the end- lr In sight; the end that is only a begin- ning. And so to the period that mark* the end of this lenience we add the stroke of admiration for distinctions achieved. But tomorrow, next week; next autumn, that exclamation -point 1 will curve into a mark of Interroga- tion. What next? they will be asking: What 1* i t all for?.

It will then devolop whether he Is best, adapted to practical work as a skilled mechanic or whether he should begin a thorough course of theoretical train- ing to fit him for some branch of the engineering profession. The field of mercantile business is so vast that nothing which could be said In any such general discussion would be worth much. The secret of success as an employee is simple enough. To study what the public wants, to be .honest, and to work- hard without watching the clock, are the requisites. Any man who is inclined- to go into' 1 business ought to, fake a pride In his business. If the business is such that he is ashamed of- tt, he would better get but of it and try something else. The distribution of commodities by re- tail ami wfcelesale^rade is an.indis- pensable part of our modern \world and the honest and public-spirited mer- chant renderes a real' service to the community.

It is at this point that many excellent ministers make a grave mis- take. Proceeding upon the theory- that schemes for social amelioration are be- coming a substitute in the lives of many for religious effort, -they yield to these-reforms only a qualified and con- descending: support, fearing lest the spiritual work of the church may be slighted. Yet they maintain that the church should have the credit for all social reforms that are carried on by- persons really -or nominally allied with the church. This inconsistency is keenly felt by many of the best friends of the johjurch-todayr The ydmnrnrain who makes his choice of a career in the ministry wiU do well to aim at the uplift Of Humanity by any and all 'means that tend to- make life broader, freer, more humane, more unselfish*, and. so more divine. So conceived, the ministry is a career of Infinite possi- bilities- because It sets before a man as. his direct aim what in most other pro- fessions Is .only an Indirect arid partial purpose. It Is greatly to be desired that a larger proportion of the ablest young men should enter the- ministry and shape this profession in accordance with the new spirit and demands of the age. Surely if a man wishes a station In life where he may have the largest number of opportunities to help his fellows he could not choose a career, better adapted to his aim than that of the settled pastor of an active, ohurch In an .industrial community. The profession of law has undergone greater changes than any other. This Is chiefly due to the vast expansion of corporations during the last thirty years.

The art of selling goods by printed per- suasion is a curious compound of busi- ness shrewdness, practical psychology, and charlatanry. Within recent years the increasing competition: of manu- facturers and merchant* ha* led to the rise of a new b'usine**, sometimes called a profession, the-' business of: manufacturing publicity. It Is -un- doubtedly true that, some .advertising manager* for large concern* ..receive generous salaries and-commissions for the business which they bring to. their employers. The power to »ell goods, directly or Indirectly, Is a valuable as- set for any man. An advertising agent is In reality valuable-only as he is an expert In the business which he I* advertising; and a tyro with a smattering ox newspaper slang* and an abundance of effrontery can no more make a fortune writing advertisement* than he can making shoe*. In so far as advertl«Ing serves to\ acquaint the consumer with the merits andj nrlces of standard commodities which he must have, It Is undoubtedly as Indis- pensable a part of trade as wholesaling or transportation; but in so far as it deceive* people into buying Inferior i goods, trashy novelties, and perishable! . luxuries by the BklMfuLlMeja; artlstlol ^falsehoods it Is a public nuisance and 'a peculirlly American vice.
