- L. the church, or the state may demand of a man, his answer will be the poet's who said, UDQ what thy manhood bids thee do, from none expect applause: He noblest lives and noblest dies who makes and keeps his self- made laws.n , Parker Hicks '43 CLASS QJFT Music more than any other art offers us an opportunity to get away from the ord1nary'things of life. In proportion,as we understand great music, we are lifted out of ourselves into an ideal realm. Many people know what it ls, but few have described it as clearly as Dr. Spaeth, who has called it the organization of sound toward beauty. Music, too, is a universal language. It is impossible to go into any part of the world and not find there some form of music. Music occupies a very wide field in which much progress has been made. The beginning of music was vocal in character. Primitive people :rested songs while at work or play. .Through the ages very beautiful 'music has been handed down thru sacred chants, thru folk songs, thru negro splrituala and thru other forms. Especially, ln a world filled with turmoil as we find it today, we are stirred by the music which we hear. Marches make us want to join the fighting ranks of our men. Hymns in church bring a quiet reassuring silence over the congregation, whose hearts are praying for the safe return of their loved ones who are ln danger. Dounhearted and depressed soldiers forget hardships when strains of music reach their ears, and are filled with a new zeal which enables them to carry on. For the past few years the students of Colebrook Academy have had to study music with an inadequate supply of good records. The few which they have been able to secure have either been borrowed or owned by the music teachers. nGood music is exactly as mysterious and com- plicated as any other of the artsg and no more so. The way to appreci- ate it is to hear it, and the way to understand it is to be familiar with it.n And so on behalf of the Senior Class I wish to present to the school a few albums of carefully-chosen records. It is the wish of the class that these records be available to all students who have a love of good music. Edith Fellows '43 BIOLOGY CLASS Teacher: Begin right now to draw and label the parts of a frog. Groans from the class. Teacher: See how easy it is? You've get the croak already. -61-
