Mabel Thomas 1871-1964

"W H A T DOTH THE LORD REQUIRE OF THEE, BUT T O D O JUSTLY, T O LOVE MERCY, AND T O WALK HUMBLY WITH THY G O D ."

To. . .

Mrs. Strong, "the beast of the base­ ment" who put up with our wooden sandals and clogs on the stairs above her head, who taught us responsibility and leadership, who made enemies into friends, and who showed us much more about teamwork than just holding a hockey stick.

And to . . .

Mrs. Johnson, who taught us how to read between the lines, who gave us faith in ourselves and who worked all hours of the night to make sure our next years would be happy. She knew us better than anyone. . . . we dedicate our yearbook.

"The entire history of man could be summed up in one single phrase: "When do we eat?" But to limit such an insight to the career of one two-legged organism, howev­ er high our opinion of him may be, seems shortsighted.

For the history of all life on earth could as well be seen as one continuous and arduous quest for sustaining energy, and it has been principally as a means of succeeding in that quest, that life, over billions of years, has "evolved" from a microscopic bit of sea-borne jelly to more than 1.25 million different species ranging from asters to zebras including you and me."

Mrs. Harris —Headmistress

There's an old Chinese curse that says, "May you live in interesting times." For you in the Class of 1974 the "curse" is a challenging reality.

The greatest joy for me in my three years at Thomas has been my view from within the chrysalis, my opportunity to watch your metamorphosis as you have turned into re­ sourceful, compassionate, responsible young women, ready to meet the world as you find it.

The times are interesting ones, no doubt about that. Whether it is a curse or whether it is the key to a rich, full life is in your hands.

Mock-Mock Fish Take a fish and prepare it by the meitung method so it resembles pork. Treating the result as real pork, prepare mock-fish. The final result is served as a fish shaped course which appears to be fish but might also be pork. Thus the duality of food stuffs is demonstrated.

Education Center is located in the heart of the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area.

There we spent two weekends this past fall.

There we learned how to listen to the forest.

There we dined on Chili Con Carni and blueberry pancakes.

There we swam in pools and climbed on mountain ridges.

There we saw a hawk and found ancient fossils.

There we bathed in sunken bathtubs and crossed waterfalls.

There we watched the stars and learned about how to care for our earth.

Time comes and goes as a wave comes in and goes out.

A leaf flies with a wind as a bird with its wings.

A flower blooms as a tree blossoms.

Nothing is more beautiful than nature itself.

Vicki Rudomanski

I sat on a wooden fence that founded itself in the sand. Long grasses lined the roadway which numbed the sound of cars. Today, cars sel­ dom came by this desolate route because it leads to nowhere; most people would want to go on the day before Christmas.

This December morn was cold and overcast. The sun tried to shine but the overpowering clouds kept it hidden and flurries of snow passed by my view.

The waves were loud and crashing. Salty spray splashed my face and made me laugh. It was as if the water had been trying to aim towards me all day.

Kim Bechert

Rushin by . . . like a gust of wind, I catch a quick glance.

But like the wind . . . you disappear too quickly, and leave my standing . . . alone.

Peggy Gibbs

Grey cumulous clouds Gentle drumming on tin roofs Light flash, roar thunder.

Jane Lowry

Dreams floating swiftly through your head flying by you.

Reach out and catch them and bring them into realization before they slip out of your mind . . . and are gone forever.

Lucinda Billings

The trees move in the middle of the night, the birds start to cry and the clouds get dark. The country devils come from the forest with one eye as the animals roam about. The townspeople awaken at midnight, the red lion grabs one devil.

Blue blood, green blood, yellow blood, black blood comes flushing from the devils body. Red dust comes from the clouds into the town, it starts to rain. It's the spirit of the devil. He speaks gibberish in blue lan ­ guage.

No one understands the devil but the black sky that drives the crowing rooster away. He enters by the mouth, leaves by the feet, eats with the eyes and sleeps with the ears. When the lightning strikes, he gives a loud moan and the ground breaks open.

Tiedi Wiles

There were times when only you could have helped me, but you were not there . . . so I proceeded on, I made it Kate.

The departure In white I walk the cobbled and uneven path, full of history, that I made, and by the trees hovering with years of seasons.

I hear the gulls and the usual salt smell, I walk away from the large, grey building, moaning with mv joy, sorrow and laughter. I pass forever, through the gates of my memories.

Trees reach out to all forms of life.

Trees bloom joy in the spring, bring forth fruit in summer, transform colors in fall, and trees become free in winter.

Trees reach out and upward . . .

Kim Gray

II y a long temps, un tres long temps, quand notre monde ne connaissait pas le temps, quand le temps n'etait pas encore imagine, il y a eu un commencement.

Rien n'existait au commencement. Au commencement, toutes les formes ont commence a exister. Les formes avaient ete toujours la, (n'importe ou elles etaient au commencement) mais rien n'existait.

II y avait des petits morceaux repandus, diffuses des oreilles de lapin, et des tiges de narcisse sauvage la, au commencement.

II y avait des meches invisibles des yeux des aigles et des carapaces des tortues la, au commencement.

II y avait des coeurs de montagnes, inimaginables et des larmes d'anges la, au commencement.

Et il y avait des tranches maigres de forets claires avec des journees et des nuits la, au commencement.

Echo An Echo is a gentlman Who, with grave and muted voice, speaks To the rocks (and to Insects hidden deep in valleys).

I asked him once â&#x20AC;&#x201D; "W hy, sir, are You impelled to speak (to the stern and Unflexing faces of rocks?)

He prompted by politeness, Repeated my question.

(Considering) I think he answered me.

"T o those who do not know An answer, their very question Is a response. "Those Who cannot think by themselves, Think instead to me."

"They hear nothing by what they Want to hear." I puzzled and, Inversely, he puzzled.

I left him, (our banter still Resounding From the surface of the cliffs.

Time In rhythmic steps it passes, never pausing, trudging forward on tortuous toes. Through the burning forest the frightened elk thrashes in every direction praying for escape. In quiet despera­ tion I sit, waiting while the passing hours keep me prisoner.

Betsy T refrey

We're Friends The wind held my hand once.

We ran down a red field of daisies.

He almost pushed me into a tree.

We laughed together, But everytime I tried to touch him, he sprinkled me with a wet mist.

His fingers were warm and fresh.

Sun got jealous as time went by, and soon he went away. (so did wind . . . they go everywhere together.)

Yet, wind sometimes sneaks through the screens of my window at night, and lies by me.

Just before he leaves, wind gently puts a drop of cool dew on my cheek to remind me â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that he has come . . . and . . . gone . . .

We can only tell you that "we were". We came, some of us, as children. We grew up in the old grey stone building sharing our moments, that now make years.

Some came and left like the tapestries.

Each year we changed, grew and became closer. New faces appeared from behind the iron door to join us. We were a collection a group of faces, personalities, smiles, secrets, sudden laughter and hidden tears.

We emerged, some how, from being the Devils to being the leaders. We remember, now, with a sad smile.

We must leave and begin our future, that has always been cloudy and faraway. A future we have always heard about, and now, suddenly, its here. Together we leave, to seperate. We bring with us all the memo­ ries, a friend calling through the Opie wing, the hockey field after it's mown, the dawn on the water, the gym uniform after a month and laughter somewhere, somewhere . . . We can only say goodbye, know­ ing we have left a little of ourselves behind.*
