Maddock, class of 1909, now of Hart- ford, there was an initial Alumni day in connection with the ennual com- mencement exercises of the Westerly High school and a revival of the Alum- ni association of 1894, The exerciees were held Wednesday morning in the assembly hall of the high school build- ing, and besides the senior class of the school there were nearly 300 graduates present. Principal ‘A. J. Maryott pre- sided. The exercises opened with the symn Our Lord is God Forever. Then followed responsive reading from Mat- thew vii. and prayer by Mr. Maryott Mrs. Thomas Nichols, in behalf of the Woman's Christian _Temperance union, announced Marjery Young as winner of the picture prize for the best on Temperance. Mr. Maryott ©d the prizes in the prize speak- ntest to Ruth Ella Barnes, Mary ng Howard and Pauline Law- rence Sullivan. lin 97. g pr Loverett A. Briggs, Jr., president of | the senior class, said: In past years it s been the custom for graduating | classes to leave the Westerly High | school some gift as & token of their love and esteem for this beloved old school. These gifts have been of vari- ous sorts. Some classes have contrib- uted to the “warm weather figures” representing the frieze above: others have given statuary, and still others pictures as their last gift. For two or three years the ravages of Old Father e on our stage curtain have been very marked, but the faithful old cord stains the sagging weight of the fast ading curtains, although from a posi- tion on the stage here this cord pre- sents a rather knotty proposition. Last year the class of '14 started with the sum of $50 what is known as the cur- tain fund, to be added to by following classes until a large enough sum is reached to pay for a suitable curtain. We of *15 have decided to cast our lot with that of the class of "4 and further eIl th 2 fund. B Contin Mr. Briggs said: Tt is mpossible for class to &ot any special amount for this gift, as cir- cumstances do mot permit us to know { dust how much we will have left in our treasury after all business matters are settled. We have decided, how- to give all the money left in our asury, after all these matters are ed, as our gift, whether it be the wealth of Croesus or the widow's mite. No matter what the amount may be we give it with the same good wil and love for our school which charac- terized your own gifts of the past, end we hope it will be received with the same feeling that it is given with. The high school orchestra rendered a selection, and hymn 14, Spanish Chant, was sung. Principal Maryott d of the start made by the class of 1909 a vear ago for an Alumni day, and told of letters that had been sent o members of the severai classes d of the many favorable responses | received in favor of the a permanent alumni associa- and a mual alumni day in con- n with the commencement exer- He was gratified to see so many | present and in behalf of the school he ded cordial welcome. FHe d towar there was need of more good school support such a 1d come from a }loyal alumni a: s Judge Edward M. Burke, class of 1899, was called to preside at this junc- ture, and the meeting was given over jto the alumni. The judge stated that object of the assemblage was to the rendition of a prepared pro- ne and the other was to take for the permanent organiza- elumni association. He said :s not down for a speech, but was mpted to make one as it was long time since he had the oppor- v of addressing an audience that could not get away. Letters were read erett T. Tomlinson of Trenton class of 1875, from Otis E. Ran class of 1880, dean of Brown uni- and Helen Fitz Pendleton, president of Wellesley college, etting inability to attend the first Alumni day of the Westerly High and expressing their best wishes the future of the school and its Judge Burke stated that he would now call upon the most enthusiastic | alumnus of the whole school, whom ev- | ervbody knew as Aubrey L. Maddock, ho said he wished it to be understood t while the suggestion of Alumni vy and Alumnl association had been susgested by the class of 1909, that it was 1ot a class but a school proposi- tion. He said there were ten times more of the alumni present than ex. pected and that therefore he was ten times more happler than he expected |to be when he left Hartford in _the early morning for Westerly. Mr. Mad- dock had learned that there was al- ready a Westerly High School Alumni association, although it had been in- active for several years, and that it had a cash account of $70 deposited in the Washington Trust company and that James McKiernan, 1901, now of Plainfield, held the bank book and was ready to turn it over to his successor office. Mr. Maddox advocated get- ting hold of the constitution and by- laws of the organization, perhaps for revision, and to get hold of that $70. He favored the election of a board of | officers for the standstill organization ind to infuse new life, rather than the formation of a mew organization, and he burial of the old one with that $70 to be diverted elsewhere. Miss Katherine G. Price, class of gave pleasure with a soprano solo, the prelude A Cycle of Life, by Ronald, with Miss Ruth Burdick, 1912, accom- par Then Lloyd Crandall of Ash- away, class of 1908, spoke in favor of an alumni day end association and gave a fine address on the philosophy of life, after which William H. Brown- ing favored with a baritone solo, Miss Jennie B. Stanton, teacher of speaking in the school, was called to the stage, and she said it was much easier to fell twenty what is to be done in public speaking than to be one to follow the teaching. Miss Stanton ad- vocated an alumni day in preference to an alumni association, if but one could be had, but she believed there could be both end that both would be successful. se to an invitation of Judge Eleanor C. Wolcott, class of 1874, the first to be graduated from Westerly High school, responded for that class, stating that as a teacher in the school Judge Burke and Miss Stan- ton were among her pupils. She said that on a recent Visit to Westerly she was hobnobbing on the street with a former pupil when he made mention that So-and-So, former pupils, were now old men and women, and Miss Woloott wondered how she was able to walk around unassisted. She said that every class at graduation had a loyal feeling towards old Westerly High school that fould remain as long as life, but that it would be Nable to weaken unless strengthened by meet- ings of the alumni such as the present WESTERLY H.

Perry, now Mrs. Fred C. Buffum, Julia E. Smith, Theophilus R. Hyde, Jr. Frank ‘A. Palmer .and Rev. Charles EL Pendleton. Dr. John Ferguson of New York was appointed secretary of the meeting. He stated that it was impossible for Mr. McKiernan, treasurer of the old Alumni association, to be present, but he had advised the election of a mew board of officers to revise and continue the organization. He said there were funds on deposit in the Washington Trust company to the credit of the school, classes and alumni, to the amount of $80.51, which he believed could ultimatel. be turned into the treasury of ihe alumni associatlon. On motion of Aubrey L.
