MOUNTAIN CLIMBING

“Friends, have you ever climbed a mountain? You haven’t! Well, th ink of all you’ve missed. T h in k of the exercise! T h in k of the beauty! T h in k of the na ture!”

I yawned. A nother one of these dissertations-on m ountain climbing! W hy had I let my wife bring me to this meeting? “You’re afraid to say ‘no’ to Mary,” I told myself.“Friends, m ountain climbing is an art. Few of us have had any educa­tion in it.”

“ I ’m going hom e,” I muttered. W hat a way to spend an evening! T h e little woman is such a pest! She’s always insisting on my coming to club meetings. Such an interesting discussion! I really shouldn’t miss it!

I looked at Judge Biddle. He was asleep. At least, his wife let him alone. Everytime I tried to sleep, Mary would punch me and say, “You’re missing all the interesting parts of Dr. W ink le ’s lecture.”

“Friends, mountains are our brothers. T hey are our homes. W e must spend some time living with them. T hey open their luxurious arms to us, and we must climb to their bosoms.”

I could have crowned Mary. She asked the darndest things of me. I should have known that “M ountains Are O ur Brothers” would be a boring lecture.

“Friends, first we must buy our climbing clothes. T hey must be heavy and durable. W e must buy a poncho, moccasins, climbing boots with hobnails on them, knickers, and heavy leather gloves. T h e n we must buy a long, long rope, for as we reach the dangerous parts of the mountains, we will tie it around our stomachs.

“W hen we reach the dangerous parts, our stomachs weigh tons, and we can’t possibly tie ropes around them !” All this to find a m ounta in ’s bosom!

“Friends, you’ll never guess what we do then.”I knew. I raised my hand, and Dr. W inkle saw that I wished to an­

swer. “T h e n ,” I said slowly, “then, we go down.” Dr. W inkle smiled; the ladies present applauded; Judge Biddle woke up.

“Friends, as we re tu rn to our chalet after a day’s climbing, we feel that our work has not been in vain, for we have met our brothers. We are tired and go to sleep early, hoping that the following day will be beautiful so that we may climb another m ountain and explore the unknown world that we live in.”

T h a n k goodness, th a t’s over! Now I can go home.“ Ladies and gentlemen, we have some good news to share with you.

Dr. W inkle has consented to lecture to us next week. His topic will be ‘Trees, Bushes and Plants’. Please attend this lecture. W e are sure you will enjoy it.”

Mary whispered, “It was wonderful! W e’ll be here, w on’t we, Dear?”“W e’ll be here,” I answered. Rats!!!

HISTORY

In 1872, Dr. Ju lius Sachs founded Sachs Collegiate Institute, Frank­l in ’s parent institution. In the best seller O ur Crowd by Stephen Bir­m ingham, Sachs is described as a “very select school for boys from outstanding families.”

Dr. Sachs was succeeded by Dr. Otto Koenig. H e continued the poli­cies and traditions of Dr. Sachs, yet he changed the name of the school to Franklin. Clifford W. H all and David P. Berenberg became Head­masters in 1932. W hen Dr. M. C. Spahn took charge in 1951 after many years on the faculty, he allowed four girls to enter the all-boys school, because he felt that a co-educational system was the best and most normal way of educating young people. T h e num ber of girls at­tending Franklin has gradually increased, and today there is an equal boy-girl ratio.

N ot only has F ranklin ’s name changed, b u t its styles and activities have changed as well. A t the tu rn of the century, Dr. Sachs’ School (Franklin) had a football team which was not really that good. There

was also a chess club and a tennis club, both of which were fairly good. T h e school uniform consisted of a grey flannel suit with small lapels and a matching vest. H air was at quite a conservative length and stu­dents had to wear white shirts with black ties or bow ties.

D uring the twenties and thirties and most probably even the forties, every vacation was approached in a very proper manner. T he re were assemblies before Christmas Vacation in which the students, and there were only boys at the time, sang patriotic songs such as the Star Span­gled Banner and speeches were given by the headmaster. Graduation was, as it still is, a very big affair with a plethora of speeches dealing with everything from the class’s history to its prophecy. T h e n there was an award assembly for scholastic achievement and general excel­lence.

In 1929, Franklin initiated a Golf Club, yet it was short lived for such obvious reasons as a lack of Golf courses. In the year of 1933, the S tudent Council was founded and it is still active today.

Today, although the styles and chivalry have changed, the school is still ru n on many o f the~ principles on which it was established. Frank­lin has always enjoyed an active role in society and has always been cognizant of the problems around it. T h e following are several exam­ples of this feeling.

Towards the end of the First W orld War, Franklin school succeeded in making an excellent record in securing subscriptions for the Fourth Liberty Loan. 1 he quota set for the private schools of New York City was $100,000, but our pupils feeling confident that they could bring

56

Page 61: Franklin 1972

in a far greater sum than this, set their own quota as double this amount. O u r boys bent to their task with a will, and soon succeeded in raising the $200,000 quota which they had set lor themselves. Not satisfied with this showing, they determ ined to surpass their quota, and if possible to even double it. A friend of the school, although lie had previously subscribed, offered to subscribe $25,000 if the boys would bring in $375,000. Spurred on by this generous offer, the boys suc­ceeded in raising even more than the necessary $375,000. T h e am ount finally brought in by Franklin boys was $414,000, a tremendous sum for a school as small as our own.

During the school term of 1932, when the fourteenth meeting (of the debating club) was held Messrs. Konheim and Jacobson debated on the topic “ Resolved that the Nations of the world disarm, with the exception of such forces as needed to m aintain internal peace.” Mr. Jacobson took up the negative aspect and was totally crushed in his attempts to promote military escalation.

Although the students of Franklin are also the youth of America, during the term of 1944-1945 one student wrote on the social problem of the youth of America. It goes as follows: “One of the most serious home front problems the N ation must face is that of juvenile delin­quency. Because of their paren t’s entry into war factories, the youths of America have been left on their own. Consequently, they have changed their normal propensities of ‘having a good tim e’. . . . They resort to acts of gangsterism merely as a means of enjoyment. . . . T h e retelling the exploits of their servicemen brothers stirs the blood and excites the imagination of these underage rangers. Participation in muggings is the closest these minors can possibly get to the excitement of the front line. . . . It has been through this corruption of youth that democracy has been underm ined and Fascism has taken root. . . . It is our problem, the problem of the people of America to Combat the menace of Fascism by stomping out its root, juvenile corruption and delinquency.”

Today Franklin has carried on the tradition of helping others and being aware. In the past two years, there has been a D rug Program to make students of the lower school aware of the drug problem, and the seniors of 1972 have been engaged in a project to help the Red Cross with its blood donors program.

In these trying times, it is amazing to th ink of anything, lasting 100 years. Any institution must change to last ten decades, three genera­tions, yet, although change is required, the basic principles from one hundred years ago must still be present, and Frank lin ’s ideology has remained constant through the years. ✓

A Man for A ll CollegesThe king and queen of Boston sat on their thrones of catalogues and

unaccepted applications. As they sat talking of the competition going on in the Middle States, Martin, the Jester, ran in.

He shouted out, “Samuel the Dreadful of the province of Franklin wishes to enter your presence.”

King David replied, “He may be accepted.”Samuel, a short but powerfully-built man entered. He wanted the king

to give him early decision to Boston University. Samuel pleaded and cajoled and wheedled.

The king inquired, “What are your boards from the Regent of Scholars?” “Eighty-Eighty,” replied Samuel.“Not good enough, Samuel the Dreadful,” screamed the king.Samuel’s eyes welled up with tears and replied defensively, “But I have

lots of extracurricular activities: Bible Studies, Student of the Round, Jousting, archery and drug program.”

The king pondered a bit and asked, “Is that all?”Samuel added, “My father owns a big Quaff Company and he will donate

a library.”The queen’s eyes lit up and replied to the tearful Samuel, “Very well

Samuel the Dreadful. But you may only enroll for one year as you will have to do for all colleges, and your title shall from this day forth be Samuel the Sychophant, Lord of Basic Studies.”

Samuel smiled and left the mighty throne-room thinking to himself, “Now that makes four libraries and four colleges, but I will get a college education so I can take over Dad’s business.”

The moral being: “If you have to cajole and bribe to get into college, that’s not honest, but to get accepted and get a good education you must

The snow was fine, falling gently, not yet making an impression on the pavement. The wind from the river cut only at street crossings. Mrs. Miller hurried, her head bowed, oblivious as a mole burrowing a blind path. She stopped at a drugstore and bought a package of peppermints.

A long line stretched in front of the box office: she took her place at the end. There would be (a tired voice groaned) a short wait for all seats. Mrs. Miller rummaged in her leather handbag till she collected exactly the cor­rect change for admission. The line seemed to be taking its own time and, looking around for some distraction, she suddenly became conscious of a little girl standing under the edge of the marquee.

There was trouble with the little girl who wanted her name a secret: she wouldn’t go, not unless her papa rode her piggy back. “You are too my papa,” she told Riley, who did not contradict her. He lifted her onto his shoulders, and she was tickled to death. All the way to the creek she acted the cut-up, and when, with her hands thrust over his eyes, Riley stumbled blindly into a bullis vine, she ripped the air with in-heaven shrieks. He said he had enough of that and down you go. “Please: I ’ll whisper you my name.” Later on I remembered to ask him what the name had been. It was Texaco Gasoline; because those were such pretty words.

T he door opened and the cannibals came in, but the people inside were busy and did not notice. T hey were all crowded around the table on which the master sat with his legs crossed before h im and his tight hair coming evenly to his collar. T h e master was supreme; he was cool and he flaunted it with grace and confidence. His lingers moved easily but intently as he played. T h e others were less sophisticated, some were nervous and others were bored bu t even the latter had been taken over by the game. T hey played on as the cannibals entered the room and closed the door behind them.

T he cannibals were efficient in their business. 1 ’wo of them bore a cauldron of boiling water which they set down by the door. They glanced around the room and spotted the girl they wanted. They led her to the cauldron, removed her clothes, and deposited her in the pot. The players at the table were engrossed in their game and took no notice. While the girl was cooking, the other cannibals drew long, keen knives from the skins they wore about their waists and went around the room making circular incisions in the chests of the players and removing their hearts, which they arranged in a neat pile in the corner of the room.

After the girl had been cooked for half an hour, one of the cannibals stuck a long skewer into the pot and lifted the girl out. T h e cannibals cut her apart with their knives and divided her evenly among them ­selves. They ate quickly and silently and tossed the bones into the waste basket. W hen they were done, one of the cannibals who appeared to be the chief stepped up to the table where the master was still en­grossed in his game — despite the fact that most of his players were no longer participating — and said, “We have the moon.”

T he master looked up with a slight contemptuous smile and said, “No you haven’t.”

“Of course we have,” replied the chief, “W e’ve eaten the queen and we have the hearts.”

“Count your hearts,” said the master.One of the cannibals went over to the hearts and after a m inu te ’s

computation he said, “T h e re are twelve.”T he master shuffled through a pile of cards which lay at his side and

drew out a card which he held up to the chief. “Never pass all your high hearts,” said the master as the chief gazed at the ace of hearts.

YELENE OF FRANKLINOnce, a long time ago, there was a beautiful country called Niece. The

people of Niece were unbelievably educated; ihey had devised complicated mathematical equations and had brought up questions about the moon, sun and earth. Most of the people who lived in Niece were not wealthy but rather plain tenants on rich peoples’ land.

One of these rich people was called Marry the Suss. Marry was an im­mensely wealthy man, and besides having gold and marble, Marry had the most beautiful wife in the world, Velene of Franklin. Although Velene was a Franklinite, she was gifted with beauty and outstanding eyes that could tame any man in the world.

Marry was so impressed with his beautiful wife that he decided to hold a party in her honor. He invited anyone who was anybody, and he even invited some nobodies. The honorary guest was Maris of Ginsburg from the far off land of Roy.

The party hadn’t fully gotten under way when Velene caught her eye on Maris. Now Maris was quite good looking himself and he proved to be quite a challenge to Velene.

Night came and many of the guests had fallen asleep where they had been sitting or standing. The moon was shining brightly and in the secrecy of the gardens, Maris of Ginsburg begged Velene of Franklin to come back to Roy with him. He loved his native country and he also missed his mother, so they packed quickly and left on the earliest ship out of Niece.

The next morning Marry woke up and discovered that his beautiful Velene was gone. Marry was so upset that he fell down his marble staircase and landed on his velvet, Persian carpet. Once Marry was revived he ran around his triplex castle like a chicken without a head. The first thing that Marry did was send a telegram to his brother who lived in another part of Niece.

Now Marry’s brother was Cliffamemnon and he was married to a woman who was not too bad looking either, her name was Karamestra. Cliffamem­non got the telegram, kissed his lovely wife farewell and took the first boat to Marry’s dwellings. Marry, infuriated that a small fry like Maris of Gins­burg could steal his wife, decided to declare war on Maris’s home country, Roy.

Meanwhile in Roy, Velene was really enjoying herself. She had total control and run of the castle and she had every man’s fancy. The first man she approached was Philip The Rock. Philip was made of a strong mind and heart. He realized that Velene was Maris’s woman and he wanted nothing to do with her because he valued his life.

The next man she approached was Bob The King. Bob was a much weaker man than The Rock, and Bob was very soft as far as women were concerned. Velene drew Bob into her powers, but Maris found out and had Bob’s head removed, much to Bob’s dismay.

Marry and Cliffamemnon reached Roy and destroyed the city. All women were captured and Cliffamemnon took a fancy to a pretty young virgin called Terissandra whom he brought back to his house, much to Kara- mestra’s dismay.

Marry took Velene of Franklin back to his magnificent palace in Niece. Cliffamemnon and Terissandra were killed by the jealous Karamestra and her boyfriend. Marry lived happily ever after with his discontented wife Velene of Franklin.

The moral of the story is never travel to Roy without your Niece.

So, slowly the m iserable answer daw nedon h im , his fo lly greiu only m ore apparent,the answer was no, now his past decision was m o u rn e d ,there was no tu rn in g back, therewas no saying sorry fo r luhat had happened .A h u m a n voice came to h im fro m elsewhere,( there was som eone else),he breathed a nd fe l t e xa ltedle t t ing the w in d race by and ru ff le his hair;all that he saiu or ever w o u ld see was theirs,there was som eone to share it.

M etam orphose: A n ob jec t is cu t o f f f ro m its n a m e , habits, associations. D e ­tached, it becomes only the th ing , in and o f itself. W h e n this d isin tegration into pure existence is at last achieved , the object is free to becom e endlessly anything.

Your children are n o t y o u r ch ildren ,T h ey are the sons and daughters of L i f e ’s long ing fo r itself.T h ey come through y o u b u t n o t f ro m y ou ,A n d though they are w i th yo u y e t they be long n o t to you .

You may give th em y o u r love b u t n o t y o u r thoughts ,For they have the ir o w n thoughts .You may house the ir bodies b u t n o t the ir souls,For their souls dw e ll in the house of tom orrow , w h ich y o u cannot v isit, n o t

even in y o u r dreams.You may strive to be like th em , b u t seek n o t to m a ke th e m like you ,For life goes n o t backward n or tarries w i th yesterday.

You are the bows f ro m w h ich y o u r ch ild ren as l iv ing arrows are sen t forth .
