About this object

A greenish-brown wood veneer covers the front, sides, and top of this decorative mantle clock that sits on four ornate metal legs. The front has a central square section for the clock face that extends forward beyond two narrower sections on either side. The ‘12' is flanked by the letters ‘SF.' On, below, and on either side of the clock face are ornate designs in gold-coloured metal.
On the back of the clock is a round metal plate with two small arms. One arm is screwed to the clock and the other hooks over another small screw to secure it. When swung open the plate reveals the workings of the clock, which are engraved, ‘1903 – Wm L. Gilbert Clock Co – Winsted. Conn. U.S.A.' A yellow sticker on the base similarly reads, ‘Oriole. – Manufactured by – Wm. L. Gilbert Clock Co., – Winsted, Conn., U.S.A.'

Subject and Association KeywordsSubject and Association Description

For the coronation of Edward VII in 1902, the newly formed Waimataitai School Cadet Corps, to which this clock was presented for unknown reasons, paraded in public for the first time. The creation of the cadet corps had taken five years and coincided with a general rise in military volunteering in New Zealand after the Boer War (1899-1902).
This rise in volunteering resulted in issues with discipline and training. Thus in 1909, a new Defence Act made military training compulsory for Junior and Senior Cadets. The Junior Cadets, however, were not a success and were abolished by a 1912 amendment to the Act. The Waimataitai School corps, attached as it was to a primary school, would therefore have been disbanded at this point if it had not been already.
Former Waimataitai School Cadet Stanley Ernest John Williams (1892-1966) went on to active service in World War I. He departed New Zealand in 1915 and was attached for three years to the Auckland Mounted Rifles. Later he was posted to a dental unit, having been apprenticed before the war as a dental technician for Timaru dentist Allan Lewis Marshall.
After the war Williams returned to Marshall's practice. He worked for Marshall and his business partner John Hallam Don for a total of 55 years. Williams was also a life member and one-time president of the Zingari Rugby Football Club and sat on the management committee of the South Canterbury Rugby Football Union. He was survived by his wife of 48 years, Annie Ivy Reka Hilton (1896-1991), two daughters, and three sons, including Jack, who took his father's place in the rugby union and donated this clock to the Museum.
The William L. Gilbert Clock Company was founded in 1871 by William L. Gilbert (1806-1890) in Winsted (now Winchester), Connecticut to replace his former business, which had been destroyed by fire. By the turn of the century it was one of the largest clock companies in the world. After several name changes it was sold in 1964 to Spartus Corporation of Chicago.

Youtuber Rachel Wynn is really, really into the fact that her fiancée is a cadet West Point. She recently uploaded a video breaking down the 'signs you're dating a West Point cadet' and a West Point cadet e-mailed it to BroBible, saying:

West Point is blowing up tonight about a video posted by some girl dating a senior cadet. She titles it 'Signs you're dating a West Point cadet' and it is hilariously similar to the overly attached girlfriend videos/meme.

First, let's watch it. I'll save the commentary for after the fact:

We're told it's also blowing up on West Point's Yik Yak. I downloaded Yik Yak just to check this out. Here's a few gems I found from the Anonymous discussion app that's popular on college campuses right now:

I don't know what to think here. Gut reaction is 'barf barf barf with this overly cutesy, obsessively batshit girlfriend shit.' The other part of me is like 'Awwww. They're in love, engaged, and he's going to graduate and deploy and they're going to have a wedding and babies and all that shit. Good for them. Love is nice. And mad props for your service and bravery, Bro. You are 9000x smarter and have bigger balls than my lame blogger ass ever will.'

But still… No matter who you are, overly cutesy videos of girls gushing about their man will ALWAYS make a Bro cringe and ALWAYS constitute the a solid busting-of-balls from the dudes who actually know him. I mean, for crying out lout…. 'The shortest phone call can make your day'… 'A receipt from the last time you saw him'…. 'You're life is a constant countdown until the next time you see him'… 'You hardly see him or talk to him so you start to think he's an imaginary boyfriend…. Did I make this up?'…. ' YOU HAVE A CAMO PILLOW WITH HIS FACE ON.
