They have some really good articles and suggestions on sports. From the plans given in them, I'd say Lisbon isn't letting gas and tires interfere with a good sports programln she added. A few minutes later Evelyn continued, WEven though some prefer clear, separate sections and a 'file effect' in a paper, I think that 'The Echo' could be improved by scattering some of the jokes throughout other pages........ I love the regular feature, 'Uncle Joshua',in 'The Bcho'! Its author must be related to Walter Winchell, judging by the gossip he reports. The author's name is never mentionedg I guess hefor maybe shej doesn't dare to be known!n NEvelyn, don't you think this is swell?n Marian exclaimed suddmiy whereupon Marian read an article called Wmorning Routinen from the nSpirit of Towlen, a Newport, N. H.,school paper. Evelyn was silent a moment after Marian had finished. Finally she said soberly, nThat certainly gives one something to think about. Yes, that is really excellent. It's good to feel that America can be a home and haven to all nationalities. That,n she indicated the article, nshould be circulated wherever people don't realize that America can mean the simple, homely, everyday things of lif0.u There was silence for a while until Marian roused herself to listen to Evelyn. nBerlin's 'Meteor' should get quite a bit of favorable comment on it'e editorials and stories, Marian,n she observed. nThe editorials are extremely interesting and timely, since they concentrate on civilxm defense and civilian and school war efforts.n - Flipping through the UMeteorN with a puzzled look on her face, Evelyn said as though to herself, Uwhat? No book reviews?n NWhat's the matter?n questioned Marian. -27-

13 invaded countries of Europe hurries out with children clinging to her to reach an air raid shelter. ' We know, also, that when our hospitals here in America are filled with sick people they will not be bombed. We are not forever kept on the lookout. We can walk down the streets and in the parks and not see the horror that the war has brought to our country. We do not see people and children going around homeless, half naked, hungry, and cold. Our families are not roving from place to place because our homes are the ones that were hit by bombs in the raid last night. We are spared, too, the horror of seeing the streets filled with people bleeding to death, many of which has been We do not row morning or America so far whom die because they refused to obey Hitler's New Order brought into their country. have to worry about the source of our breakfast tomor- about the medical care which we so badly need. Yes, has been very fortunate in many things. We here in America, though, do realize that war has done to a great many of us. There are thousands of loved ones in the fighting parts of the world who we hope and pray will come back to usg but, of course, we realize that we must make our sacrifices. We understand to some extent what this war means to us and are giving up many things through the rationing program that has been set up in this country. We are willing to go without so that this may enable our men and women to get that job done quicker. Yet we are not going to fall under the power of Hitler or Hirohitc We will pay in sacrifices too death, money, and bloodshed, yet we will not take these hard. There is going to be a time when we will have freedom from the many worries that today have suddenly come into our homes. The conspirators are going to pay for this, because America is strong and the morale of the people in England and the conquered coun- tries cannot be shattered. They are already paying, but they have not yet begun to pay the penalty that is going to be theirs. There is also another penalty to be dealt out which they will not be able to escape. This penalty will be given by the One who alone is Righter of all wrongs. Edith Fellows '43 KEY TO CLIPPER QUIZ 1. Detroit, Mich. 2. Sequoia 14. Louisiana 15. Virginia 5. Yes, Provincetown, Mass. 16.

nThere are no book reviews! That's too badg everyone always looks for them,too. Oh well, perhaps they have them in the other issuesg this is only the one for February.N nYou can really appreciate the commercial print of Laconia High School's 'Lakonian',n sighed Marian, Nespecially after trying to read some of the other publicationsln nHow right you arein agreed Evelyn fervently. nAnd I know I was glad to read an occasional note on Miss Patterson, our former English teacher.U I After reading 'The Stratfordian' Evelyn suggested that cartoons night enliven the humor section. nPerhaps the editorials would seem better if they were all put in to further a common point, or as different outlooks on one subject :mly,N she added. Marian yawned and got up. HI wonder if we shall receive as many school papers as usual this year. I think all schools should be urged not to give up plans for publishing a school paper even if the war and 'arious shortages are problems.H l'nYes,n Evelyn replied. nAfter all, we are fighting for the very right of freedom of the press and free expression, for the right to let those who are talented advance and gain experience in practical ways at school, and for the right of exchanging, adapting, and using-ideas, customs, and thoughts. Let's hope that the schools do their part in furtiering these aims by producing, perhaps a smaller, but a better- thaneever publicationln Beverly Marshall '45 E.
