Yet in Irving W'right Smith. Leominster High has such a. man. He has the rare ability of being a friend of his pupils and at the same time commanding their respect. He takes an interest in all student activities, and materially aids their development by his helpful advice and suggestions. He has an intelligent understanding of the student viewpoint and yet realizes the necessity of occasionally imposing a lnaturer judgment upon youthful impetuosity. May his future pupils appreciate Mr. Smith as friend, advisor, and principal, as much as have we, his pupils of 1927. 7 1927 The Leonfine 1927 Enrrn M.

In using that phrase, every one feels a thrill of pride, of ownership, of partnership in a great enterprise. But it means most to the Alumnus: school is seen at its best only through the retrospection of later years. Then only do we realize fully the sense of pleasure, of congenial companionship. and inspiring friendship, which lay under all our effort. Then only can we clearly appreciate the sympathetic understanding, the thoughtful labor and the enduring influence of those long suffering saint.s, our teachers. Looking back upon our High School life, through the perspective of later years, we regard it as one of the happiest and most influential periods of our lives. And looking back after this lapse of years, we instinctively think, first, of our own class, that grand and glorious class of 19-. It is only natural that that group which comprised our closest friends, and held our major interests, should have the most tenacious hold upon our affections during High School years, and upon our memories in after life. So always the Alumnus thinks primarily of his own class. But does not this same Alumnus remember parumozmfly the whole High School as he knew it, a single unit of endeavor and enjoyment? Does he consider whether the Seniors ran the school, or if the Juniors were cleverer than the Sophomores, or whether the Freshmen had more school spirit than any other class? He does not! He remembers the four years of his school life as a single picture, a movie no doubt, progressing through successive stages of develop- ment, and yet leaving one general impression. VVe must admit that High School is pleasantest from the Alumnus' viewpoint, when all the sharp little edges of interclass friction and personal irritation are smoothed off by adult self-control, and blurred by time. Vile must agree that the time actually spent in High School would be far pleasanter if we welded all our little scratching edges into one great cutting edge, powerful, because of it.s unity, to pierce through great difficulties. Let us forge our energy, now ineffectually dissipated in a hundred directions, into one mighty wedge which shall push open a way for us into the world. Let us, holding our own class a little bit dearer but not a whit better than any other, work for our High School as one great unit. Q0 1927 The Leonine 1927 1 l I V: w t y f. as W A 4 4x L .f lex X :iff Q l M ll , Xxx lf A ,...-. L -. : ..,..,- The Qllhilhren nf the Gitcbie jltlanitu Tell, 0 brave, O story teller of the tribe, tell of the legend of the Children of the Gitchie-Manito. Tell it to us as we sit around the camp fire. Thus begins Tokimisz This is the story that is sung far through the Indian lands. This the tale of a strangely beautiful race, kinsmen to the redmen, yet unlike them. In the Land of Opportunity they live, in the Lodge of the Great School Spirit. Here they are led by Sequoyah, the dark haired one, who leads them in their quest for knowledge. With him rules Patobia, the golden one, and Vitiata, the keeper of the sacred records of the tribe. They have also an honored brave who once each sleep of the new moon descends to earth tot sit in the Great Council and make known the desires of his people. ' Great athletes are these people. Famous in many sports are they. More than unusual is it for a brave other than one of the Senoria tribe to be elected to the Watanoto Council. Greatest of all the sports is this, and called by the white man football. Yet to this council in the September Moon were four of the Gitchie- Manitos elected, among them the powerful Sequoyah. Great renown have they gained, already. They bid fair to become some of the strongest in the council when more moons have passed and they have gained in knowledge of all things. In the moon of Heavy Snows a band of warriors went on the warpath of basketball. Famous in this band is Heap Big Sure Shot, he the youngest of them all. Famous also are the maidens of the Gitchie-lvlanitos. H 21 1927 The I.eo1z.'ine 1927 Strong of mind and swift of vision are they. In the Beaver Moon the women of the second Wigwam went on t.he warpath, despite the hoots of ridicule from the braves and older Indians. Great was the lamentation of the VVet. Hen Tribe whose scalps they captured after defeating all the squaws of their Own tribe. Think not, however, that all is work and sports in the Hunting Lodge of the Great School Spirit. Often great feasts and pow-wows are held. To these the younger tribes are sometimes bidden. Once in the moon of Flying Leaves this happened. Then did the Senoria squaws invite the Gitchie-Manito maidens to a great pow-wow in honor of the maidens' presence in the Hunting Lodge. Loudly did the walls of the wigwani re-echo with the glad songs and the happy laughter of the maidens as they passed the time in games and feasting. Long will this joyous time be remembered by both the Senoria and Gitchie-lNIauito maidens. Many times since, also have the younger braves and maidens taken part in the ceremonial dances of the older Indians. Once indeed they were granted a great privilege. They, the youngest of the tribes, were allowed a part in a famous war dance which saved -the life of their beloved sister, the LEONINE. For many moons the Gitchie-Manitos have been pursuing big game. Now that the South Wind, friend of the redman, has returned, they are spurred to renewed energy. hIarvelous will be the results of the Spring I-Iunt, and great. hlany feathers do the llianitos hope to add to their headdresses. 'Many scalps they boast they will take during their stay in the Hunting Lodge of the Great School Spirit. Thus ends Tokomis, the greatest story teller of his tribe.

God save our chief, and bless this land NVith plenty, joy, and peace, And grant henceforth that weak minds r Amongst noble braves may cease. VVhat a strange commotion had prevailed in the Lodge of Learning all day! 'Maidens hurried hither and thitherg braves did likewise and a general upheaval existed everywhere. The peace pipe had just cooled from being smoked by the Great Chief, beckoning us all to a. ten moon council. Members of the Winabaga tribe, having become braves and maidens, had arrived prepared for the worst. Each had his spear, his bow, his quiver, his battle axe, and his knife, and each had also a shield of hides which he might don in case of a surprise attack from the hostile Pawnees who had preceded them by twelve moons. Tense was the excitement., for the maidens and braves had great diiiiculty in finding the many wigwams mentioned on the birch bark scrolls. In the largest of the lodges they gathered for a council fire to choose temporary leaders. They promptly elected Wabasso Tuttle chief, and Nyoda Flinton delegate to sit at the council fires of the other tribes. Q7 1927 The Leonfine 1927 These noble leaders encouraged their people t.o participate in competitions with their neighbors. In athletics the Winabagoes took a big part in sounding the warwhoops, if not in the actual battles. However, Sacco Starret and Big-Blouse Andrews excelled in football and later Light-Foot Keville came in third in the road race. Five moons had elapsed undertemporary leadership when the time came for the serious undertaking of choosing a permanent chief and helper. Ki lNIoran and lvinna Anderson were named. Honors of a. different. nature soon fell to Never-Laughs Goodhue and Kewane Bell who shot downi' algebra prizes. Then it was time for the tribes to depart upst.ream to their summer haunts for the Deer and Sturgeon llloons. lVhen the Fruit llloon had shone on them for eight days, they again paddled downstream to t.he big wigwam. This was the time for the lllinnebago tribe to play the part of warriors to the incoming freslmian tribe. lVarfare was suspended long enough for elect.ions at which they made Light-Foot. Keville chief, and Ki Moran tribe delegate. During this year a few members of the tribe were able to help produce a vaudeville given by all the tribes. but they hope t.o do more in later years when some of their number will be the Big Chiefs of the Lodge.

Both were gay bedecked with headgear Trimmed with feathers won in combat. First and Green there was a feather, Green as were the trees around themg This they said they'd won as freshmen Papooses, or the pale face freshmen. They had stood the taunts of seniors, Called by lordish man the warriorsg Freedom gained from old squaw's Wigwam, Freedom cribbed again by Seniors. As papooses who should lead them? 'Twas the hand that now guides High School, 'Twas the hand of Student Chairman, 'Twas the hand of Heap-Noise Bell. Q Stood a feather by the Green one, W'hite it was and for the pureness Of the braves. - The pale face sophomores No more were they the fools of seniors. But as braves they took their first scalp, Beat their clansmen in Class football. Thus they won their first class honors, Thus they beat the high-brow seniors. Wlill Corliss ever since has lead them, Led them on to fields of glory, . Led them on to high success. 40 1927 The Leonwine 1921 3 Next beside t.he pure white feather Was a blue - a sea blue feather, Now they were the full-fledged hunters, They at last gained Fitchburg's Scalp. They had fought a plucky battle, Fought. against their deadly rivals, Fought and won the mighty conflict. They could run a Junior Pow Wow, Junior Pow Wow gay and festive. As a leader for' their wigwam chose they Placi First among the squaws to lead them. 4 Bright beside this deep blue feather 'Was a red - a' blood red featherg Stained in blood of four years' conquest. Now at last they all were seniors, Now at last they all were warriors. On that feather wa.s a border Stained with mud and dust of battle. d-Hearted Ricker This they gained on Fitchburg's camp ground.

Thus they learned the game of football, Learned to conquer all their foes. hlany from the ranks of seniors Made the baseball, basketball and track team. Sportsmanlike they were, and manly. 'Twas on a Tuesday morning, Bright and beaming Tuesday morning, Wihen the curtain of the peace bowl Rose on gathered groups of the seniors. lTWas a humorous assembly, Far surpassing all the others. Let us look at publications, Publications of the Seniors. Best among them is the LEONINE, This the year book of the Seniors. 'Tis the year book of the High School, Best that ever has bee11 published. And it is the work of Seniors faided by their fellow-tribesmenj. Yet another publication Was the News put out by seniors, Best among the papers published. But lest we forget our class play - The Hottentoti' it was by name. Joe Toolin took the lead of Sam And carried well his part with humorg And graduation passed the year away.

Ralph's post office address is Leomin- ster even if he does come on the Sterling car. Wife are more than glad to claim him as a fellow townsman because he has been so well liked a member of that memorable class of '27 QMay her fame endurelb and has completed the General course with more than usual success. DOROTHY MAY BARKER Dot hails from North Leominster. She is sweet and demure, but not as quiet as you might think. Her ready giggle shows she always Ends a humorous side to every subject. Though she has no special intentions for the future, we know she will be a success in anything she undertakes. ROBERT EDWARD BARRETT Monsieur Barrett has been a pursuer of the Scientific Course and is one of our so-called math sharks. Despite the fact that Bob is the teacher's pet target for sarcasm, we know they all dearly love him. Bob excels in everything but study. He says that the things he likes next best to books are women. Cheer up, Bob, you're O.K. W RENA BASQUE Rena is one of the small girls in our class, but what she lacks in stature is more than made up by her sweet disposition and character. lVith such a, personality she ought to go far in life, and we wish her every success. v 43 .BN ,X lj? 19227 The Leonfine 1927 LAURA BLANCHE BEAULIEU Oh you Benny Who said all pretty girls were dumb? Not in Laura's case anyway. Laura is some girl, and an active sup- porter of all school activities. She has been Senior Delegate to the Council and a member of the Library Board, as well as heading the honor roll. All of her girl friends like her, and maybe the boys don't too!

MAUD BENSON Maud Benson is one of the many students who come from North Leominster. During her school years she has been following the commercial course and hopes to become a stenographer. Maud and Ruthie seem to be very chummy. Maud has won considerable recognition in expression. LESLIE BLOMBERG Wanted: a good college home for a fine young man measuring six feet two inches, well marked with two letters in basketball, 3 dittos and a captaincy in foot- ball, and 92 L's in track. VVell trained either as a Sports' Editor for a News or as an Athletic Advisor on a LEONINE, but best fitted for a watchdog, having been a member of the High School Police Squad. Excellent disposition, guaranteed not to snap even at teachers. Answers to the name of Leslie Blomberg. 44 1927 1 The Leonine 19127 JOHN BON N ER John, as he is known, hails from North Leominster. He is one of the curly headed boys of the school that pursues his studies only, and he's some poetry writer too. John has taken the Scientific Course and expects to enter M. I. T. in the fall. K HOWARD W. BRACKETT Brackett is one of the lenders of the noisy Room 7 gang, and he may be heard half an hour before he can be seen. He played a. little football, but his chief con- tribution to the year's activities was managing a, finan- cinl campaign for the LEONINE. Howard hasn't decided as yet what he is going to do next year, but whatever it is we wish him luck! ! IZORA ESTELLE BRACKETT Teddy is one of the most studious and well liked girls in our class as she is always a good friend and ready to assist in any undertaking. She is Literary Editor of both the News and LEONINE, and never fails to present an interesting column. Teddy is an excellent commercial student, and hopes to follow this career after High School. Oceans of luck, Teddy! ROLAND BROWN xsReggiesv Roland Brown, more commonly known as Reggie, came to our high school from Brattleboro, Vt. This young athlete played a snappy game of football on the 1926 team. He also is a member of our track team. During the winter Reggie won several prizes for his ski-jumping. I-Iere's to your future, Reggie! 45 M stuff O Q fl if ffl, F ' i 1927 ze Leoni-ne 1927 JOSEPHINE LAURA BURCHSTEAD Better known in L. H. S. as Jo. She has excellent dramatic ability and has taken part in professional as well as amateur plays. We'll agree that she is some Sheik as well as faithful typist for the News. Jo is one of those who has not yet decided what she will do next year, but we all wish you happiness, J o, in what- ever you may do. WILLIAM BURNS Bill, as he is more commonly known, is a very fine fellow. He made his debut last spring as a broad jumper. He played on the varsity football team as a utility end, and captained Co. C very ably. Bill doesn't care much for girls, but spends most of his time up in the Chem. Lab. Occasionally he can be per- suaded to do posters and News covers. He intends to major in chemistry. BERNARD BUTLER Here comes the groceryman! Beany is a tall, light haired fellow, certainly popular with his classmates and customers. Craue's corner and the opposite sex, and incidentally the general course, seem to have a. subtle fascination for Bernard. FRANCIS WALTER JOSEPH CAISSE Wild man', - Trixie Caisse. Talk about your football players, well say! Always running-for a goal, in the 440, or after the girls-especially bru- nettes. In addition to participating in football and track, Trixie has played some baseball and basketball. May he succeed next year in prep school as well as he did here! 46 K 1927 The Leontn 1927 MARION COMERFORD Marion is one of the peppy girls in our school. Shes happy and care-free and things are certainly not very quiet when she's around. Wfith all her happy-go-lucky ways, we expect Marion to have a bright future. Best of luck to you, QMarion. WILLARD CORLISS Fashion Note Our representative at L. H. S. reports a new note in the ever popular Senior Class President. This season he is being used with chic effect, as track candidate, with a football motif. Also a class president is quite au mondef' as a business manager appliqifed on one's News. He is used, too, by those arbiters of ele- gance, the teachers, in a charming buffer arrangement between pupils and faculty. Or in other words he serves as the basis for many of those quaint little com- mittees, now so much in vogue. In short when choos- ing your summer friends you are sure to be always correct if you have Willard Corliss, first lieutenant and snaps editor, around. HELEN TRACEY CRIMMINS Of course you know Helen. She is secretary for the English Club and the Senior Class. Speaking of good- looking traffic oH'icers-well! Helen is just as decorative on the stage as in the corridors and has been the sweet young thing in most of our theatricals. Also Miss Crimmins was a member of the Laomxm Statf. Just, turn to the Social Events section for a sample of her work. She is going to Simmons. CHESTER DOVIDIO Chester C' Chetnl Dovidio is one of the more serious members of our class. He believes in making hay while the sun shines and spends considerable time pursuing the commercial course. Chet showed his athletic ability in football, being a mainstay in the line. He was also manager of the track team this year. 47 1927 The Leonine 19527 Af ERNEST EUGENE DIX Diary Dixy,' is just one of this guy's collection of nick- names. He is quite some boy, believe meg one of the carbarn gang, a hunter and trapper, a camera Bend, and an English shark. He is a firm believer of Ladies Prefer Blondesl' and seems rather partial to blondes himself. ARLENE DOUGLAS .. Eppien L'iii1e girls are made of sugar and spice and all things nice. Arlene certainly can tickle the keys- no not piano! - typewriter. She is a very cosmopolitan young lady, having been in several towns. - CWhere next Arlene?J ALICE DOYLE Alice on entering high school chose the commercial course and has followed it throughout the four years in school. She was a star in typewriting and hopes to become some one's secretary. Alice was a very de- pendable member of the Senior girls, club. VVe all wish her good fortune in the business world. MARJORIE ELIZABETH DOYLE M -- is for Marjorie. I -is for Industry. D -is for dandy. G - is for goodness knows what. E -- is for excellent, especially in studies. D -is for dependable. O -- is for oflice - Welfare Department. - is for you, chairman of Senior Girls' Club Com- mittee. L - is for loyal. E -- is for everlasting affection of her classmates. Y 48 , 1927 The Leonzne 1927 ETHEL DUNKLEE Ethel is quite a typist and is very active in getting out the News. Her favorite amusements are going to dances and moving pictures. She is very quiet in school and does not take part in many of the school activities. Here's to Ethel's future. May she have a happy and successful life. DOROTHY ALICE DUPEE Her voice was ever soft, gcnlle and low - an cxcellcrzl Ihing -in woman. lliliat. wouldn't the school give to have an few more like Dot ? She has been on our honor roll for the past four years, and is one of the smartest pupils in the school. Without her eliorts at the typewriter the News would never have come out g not to mention the Year Book. Here's to Dot's future. MILDRED ELLIOT ugudu WYho does not know Mildred, or Bud for short? She's one of'those young ladies from Sterling. This happy-go-lucky young lady sure is some athleteg she plays basketball, hockey, and also holds down a place on the girls' track team. The best of luck, Bud! FLORENCE GAGE Who doesn't. know Florence, our very promising young singer? She has entertained us several times with her vocal talent. Florence is a member of the Glee Club in which she takes a very active part. She enjoys her work, and we know she will make e big success of it. 49 l 1927 Tze Leon-i-ne 1927 DOROTHY GARDNER Dorothy is a very attractive young lady who is often seen i11 theatricals or at social events. She has been president of the Senior Girls' Club this year and she has conducted that organization very successfully. She also has done her share of work for the LEONINE as Senior Class editor. lSon1e job too.D Heartiest wishes for your future, Dorothy. JAMES GARRITY ' Jimmy is the one who shines in baseball, especially, as our friend Mr. James says, when the girls are there to watch him. Jimmy is captain of the 1927 baseball team and with his leadership the team has had a sue- cessful season as J immy is very cool and collected. He also earned his letter in basketball, playing on the 1926 team. ABBOT GIDDINGS Abbey is absolutely irrepressible, whether as band master, cheer leader, captain, or hero in amateur theatricals. As a Junior, he was assistant business manager of the News, and as a Senior, a member of the male quartet. We are sure that he will be as popular as an alumnus as he has been in High School. GUSTAF G. ,GILBERG ' Gussie would make a good comedian. Watch out, Gussie, that you don't follow Charlie Chaplin's foot- steps. No fear of that, for Gussie is a ladies' 1nan! His voice is heard all over the school, especially in the music classes and he also furnishes music for the F. and L. bus patrons. His pet ambition is to become a movie star, in which we all wish him the best of luck. 50 1927 The Leonzne 1927 INIARGARET LILLIAN GOLDER 2lIarge Marge is one of our most popular classmates, who is always ready and willing to do her part. Type writing is one of her favorite subjects and we know that she will make some one a good stenog. But listen, what does Marge do with her spare time lately? - 0h! I never see Maggie alone. LEONARD GILLIS Were you ever awakened in the wee smalls by the musical jingle of empty milk bottles? Well, so were we, and the milkman was probably the same, Monsieur Leonard Gillis. Besides being captain of the milk bottles and his destiny, Leonard is the noble com- mander of Company Dj, Grand Army of L. H. S. RUTH GERALDINE GREENLAW Ruthie is known as Jerry to some people, but never mind which it is, the name doesn't. change her any. She always has a smile or cheerful word for every one. Ruth is going in training at the Deaconess hospital and we all wish her success as a. nurse. I EVELYN ISABEL HARPER Evelyn is a girl with many nicknames. Bobby, Ev, or Mouse CI wonder where she obtained that onel all refer to Evelyn. Evelyn certainly knows how to jazz it up 011 the piano, and has been called upon to render selections at many social functions. Many are the times we have seen Evelyn drawing pictures during recitations. But. she undoubtedly needs the practice as she is going to Boston Art next year. 51 1927 T he Leonfine 1927 ff ARTHUR HILLS Arthur they say is another quiet boy from Sterling but you cannot tell when they get loose. He is prepar- ing for college next fall. He is one of Mr. Porter's exceptional students in Economics. Hereis wishing Art all kinds of success. EDITH HOWSON This blonde lady possesses a special tendency toward bookkeeping. And what a typewriting critic! We wonder whether she has an electric motor for her type- writer by now. Anyhow she's a, good thinker and worker, though she doesn't brag about it. NVQ: can just imagine her as a prim school ma'am in 1930. LEWIS HULL Lewis Hull is one of the cleverest members of our class, completing many courses outside of school on his own initiative. He has worked very hard at the thankless task of being chairman of the YVelfare De- partment. Lewis also played the comet in the orches- tra, and did many fine drawings for the News. A scientific student, he plans to go to Worcester Tech next year. EDWARD AVERY JACKMAN And now meet Mr. Edward Jackman otherwise known as Bill, who toots a. mean saxophone in the Mystery Syncopators. Edward is another one of these guys that always has his home work done on time and seems to get on the good side of all the teachers. He found time, however, to extract LEQNINE payments and don Reggie in the Senior play. During his spare periods he administered justice in the form of demerits to offenders against the majesty of student govern- ment. Bill plans to attend Dean Academy where we know he will be as well liked as he has been here. 52 1927 The Leonzne 1921 ELMER JOHNSON Brick The fellow with the red-thatched roof! As for athletics - he has a master mindg as for study - silence is golden: as for habits - he neither smokes nor chews, but his lamp goes all night. All in all he's one fine fellow. . GWENDOLYN JOHNSON Gwen is a very sweet, charming little lass who comes from North Leominster. She is very popular with her classmates, as well as being one of the prettiest. of her sex. She holds down her position as secretary of the Senior Girls' Club very successfully, and is very well experienced along dramatic lines. Gwen aspires to become a teacher and will complete her school career at Normal. She always endeavors untiringly to fulfill her promises and can be relied upon. ANITA BLANCHE LAMBERT Anita has followed the Commercial Course during her four years in Leominster High. She is well known for her sunny disposit.ion. Anita makes a good candy clerk and we hope that she will make just as good a stenog for some business man. WVe wonder what the special attraction is in Fitchburg? MARY ELIZABETH LUNDIGAN Mae is one of the best sports in our class, and seems to have enjoyed her whole school career. She is one of those rarae Aves, known as a Latin shark. The only time that her well-known smile was not evident was while she administered justice for the Welfare Department sixth periods, or labored on senior write-ups.

V ALICE MACASKILL Although Alice has only been in our school one year, she has proved herself very dependable. She excels both in st.udies and sports. Although she lives in Lancaster, Miss MacAskill, by her charming personal- ity, has made many friends in Leominster, and we're all glad she's coming back to take a P. G. next year! ! DORIS Mt-CAFFREY Doris is one of the very active members of our class. She sure did play a peppy game as captain of the Senior Girls' basket ball team.' Even if she did spend much of her time on basket ball, she did not fall behind in her studies. She intends to go to Posse next year. MARY MCCRANN WVho is the girl with dark, curly hair you see running around after school in the corridor with her basketball suit on? Why, it's Mary, our beauty from the 'Plains. ' She has distinguished herself in athletics, playing basketball on the Senior team. She is also very active in our many social activities. If you see her, ask her how she likes her raspberry lime. 1927 The Leone 1997 RODERICK MACDONALD Roddy is a merry soul, often quite loquacious and simply irrepressible. He is really Holland's rival in the gentle art of making ship's models and can make any- thing from a bookcase to a toy pistol. JOHN MCHUGH Ambitious John is much interested in his Senior algebra and as second lieutenant he was right on the job. Except for a flashing eye, he is rather quiet. He makes a promising drug store clerk, so Mr. Gaffney says. AGNES MARY INIERCIER Agnes is a most jovial person who is always ready to help some poor unfortunate with his French. We understand she is also quite talented in music Cas the Senior Girls' Club knowsl. She is planning to enter Wlforeester Normal next fall. VVe wish you great suc- cess, Agnes! ! ! DORIS MERCIER Doris is one of our ambitious girls who has completed high school in three years. She belongs to the English Club, and Girls' Glee Club. Doris is so fond of asking questions in our Problems of Democracy Class, that no one would suspect she is bashful. Her present ambition is to be a nurse. 55 19077 e Leon-ine 19:27 FRANCIS JAMES MORAN .. PM ,, Francis Moran, more commonly known as Pat, is a small but important member of our class. Pat is a three-letter man, earning his letters ill baseball, basket- ball and football. He very cleverly extracted music from the Mystery Syncopators at their numerous public appearances. All in all, Pat's one fine fellow! SAMUEL NANCOLLAS Sammy has always liked to argue and that is why he did so well on the debating team. He also distin- guished himself as an august member of the Welfare Department. He has displayed his other abilities as general utility man on the News and business manager of the Senior Play. LAWRENCE NYE The Senior play Hottentot claimed this young gentleman as one of its leading characters. Lawrence has taken the General Course and intends to become a. contractor. May he contract success in the future. PAULINE ORR Pauline takes a great interest in all sports for girls. Besides doing well in her studies at school, she is a brilliant star in Scouting, for she has more merit badges than any other girl in VVorcester County. She certainly is a loyal friend and true Girl Scout. Pauline aspires to enter the teaching profession and we are sure that the coming generation will profit greatly by her in- struction. 56 1927 The Leonmne 1997 IRENE PAGE Irene is the deinure little miss who is always ready to have some French translated. She has the honor of being the vice-president of our Senior Girls' Club, and certainly is well worthy of the title. She expects to enter Lasell Seminary in the fall, but she will not leave us all without taking with her our hearty wishes for prosperity in the days to come. EUGENE PELTIER Eugene is always ready to debate, whistle, or sing about any of the socialistic principles. Radio, electric- ity, chemistry and debating, all thrown together, seem to summarize his interests, unless I left out his interest in growing taller. We all wish luck to Eugene at IVentworth Institute next year. MABEL PENNERY Another commercial student! Mabel has a distinc- tive personality, and several unique characteristics, which have endeared her to her classmates, expecially those of us who have been fortunate enough to know her as a valued member of the Senior Girls' Club. GERTRUDE AGNES PINARD Gertie is one of our Commercial students and is one of those girls who do much and say little. The only way to get her excited is to show her something green. If she only knew it, she could make her stenographic talents useful to some one. ' 57 1927 The Leonfivzep 1927 RAYMOND PIPER Sandy A -man he seems of cheerful moods. Ray is one of the well-known members of his class for several reasons - all favorable. He's a three- year track man and a very good football player. Ray believes in equal rights for women so he is not partial to either blondes or brunettes. Besides his services on the athletic field, his ever genial nature has been a great help to the school. J OSEPHINE RAY KS Y! Jo is one of our quiet young girls. She is very interested in athletic activities and she played a good game of basketball on the Senior girls' teamg she also is a First Class Scout. Jo will enter Fitchburg Normal in the fall. Best wishes for the future, schoolrna'am. BERNARD RICHARDS There aren't many Hies on Barney when it comes to playing a piano. Wow! Not very noisy, but a real guy. During afternoons one can interview him at Bigelow's Shoe Store. Next year he intends to head for the Boston Conservatory of lliusic. KENNETH RICHARDSON Long may he live! His present stature would seem to indicate that he is well on his way toward that desirable goal. Speaking of goals reminds us of that noble sport commonly known as basketball: basketball and Hanks name are indissolubly linked in the minds of the class of '272 Shall we ever forget our center, Richardson? 58 1927 The Leo nine 1927 ETHEL LILLIAN RICKER A unique and charming personality. A clever and dependable brain. An active and intelligent interest in all school nctiv- ities. The Editor of a bigger and better News. The blissfully tolerant chairman of the Library lloard. - Expression Student de Luxe. The brightest pupil in the Honor Society. Lillian Ricker the best of all-round girls! FRANCIS SCANLON General utility man for all school activities, Francis has helped in theatricals and in running errands for the LEONINE Staff. He has been very active in Junior Community Players, and has a good soprano voice. Having followed the Classical Course in high school, he will go to Holy Cross next year. VVe're sure that he will make as many friends there as here. EVELYN SCULLANE Evelyn is one of the few blonde girls in the class. She is likewise one of those who come from North Leominster- to seek commercial knowledge. Evelyn has been contented to pursue her studies and leave the hurly-burly of the rest of school life to others. CARMEN SIMAR-D Hereis to Carmen! One of the popular, good- looking, snappy and well liked girls of L. H. S. Maybe she didn't play a mean guard on the Senior team. She will certainly make some one a nice little stenog. 59 i 'T 1 l l w l V l L ,,,, , I 1927 Thpe Leonfine 1927 RUTH SMITH Ruthie, Room 8's little ray of sunshine.

He made a good Ist lieutenant and had a successful season as manager of the football team and as picture manager of the LEONINE. X JOHN ARTHUR STUART Arthur, commonly known as 'KA1-ty, came to Leo- minster High School in 1925 from Sterling. Being a quiet lad he devoted most of his time to his studies. If you , should happen to pass his house on the Clinton road, you would surely see Arty trying out his skill at base- ball, his main hobby. CATHERINE SULLIVAN 4 w K y v x Kitty has distinguished herself in dramatics starring in many plays given by the school. She has successfully completed the commercial course. To be a private secretary is her ambition, but she may change her mind. Arguing is Kitty's hobby. The best of luck in the future! 60 1927 The Leo-nin 1927 RAYMOND W. TATRO Spud, as he is called by his friends, uses a great many big words, but we doubt if he knows what they all mean. Spud played right guard on the '26 football team and was one of its Inainstays. Besides playing football, Spud is the honorable captain of the traffic squad and class treasurer. HARRIET THOMAS Harriet is as lively and pleasant to look at ns her favorite color green. She's just another case of quality not quantity and to prove it, though small, she has very successfully completed the commercial course. And, what is as rare as the dodo bird, she has been con- sistently popular with everybody, teachers as well as pupils. WAINO THOMPSON Tommy is one of the studious boys of Leominster High. He has not taken much part in sports but spent most of his time at useful labor. He is often seen with his humorous pal, Gussie. Tommy believes in the saying, Gentlemen prefer Blondes. His ambition is to become an electrical engineer. ' FREDERICK TIERNEY . Fred is well known as a student and storekeeper. He is rather quiet except when he is in Shorthand. ln the afore mentioned class he becomes a pugilist. Fred is a prominent candidate for the position of pitcher on the baseball team. He was also manager of the basket- ball team. 61 f 5 fi? J 192 7 The Leonine 1927 AGNES TODD Rossie' Who does not know Agnes, the girl who had courage enough to let her hair grow? She's some Geography sharkg ask any one in the 6th period class. Frequently one hears Agnes telling some one to go t.o the right, as she is one of our Qhardworking?j traffic officers. During our Junior year this young lady was our class treasurer. She intends to be a nurse, and maybe she won't make a fine one! JOSEPH TOOLIN Joe is one of our athletically inclined young sheiks. Playing a dazzling game of football and defeating his opponents in track is by no means the height of his successes. As a traffic officer he is at his best. He is very amusing as a member of the famous Mystery Syncopatorsj' noted for their weird, uncanny noises. Needless to say, Joe is quite an attractive end-man. QEnd of what?j Likewise a good hero in the Senior playg also an attractive adjutant. He is a four letter man, in all having made eleven letters while at L. H. S. LAURA TOWNSEN D Laura is one of our girls who has completed the High School course in three years. She has been an active participant in athletics and has earned her letter in basketball. She is well liked among her companions and is a friend to all. After high school Laura intends to go to Normal school. lVe know she will make a very good schoolmarm. CHARLES WHEELER Pounce', is a proof that good things come in small packages. Charles studied hard as his report cards show, and he also made his bigger opponents recognize him in football. Pounce blew a mean whistle with the Mystery Syncopatorsn and threw a wicked line in the Senior play. He was also president of the English Club, ofiicial duster in the library, and second lieutenant in the army. He plans to enter Harvard next year. 62 1927 The Leorzze 1927 BLAIR WHITNEY Blair Whitney's a real clever boy. If you desire any proof, just Shanks mare down to any of the minstrel shows and you'll find Blair before the spot- light. He made an excellent Alec in the Senior play. If he isn't acting, he is decorating for class dances or fixing the stage for others to act. I-Ie was a member of the 1925 L. H. S. football squad and always played a good game. Blair intends to enter Art School in the fall to learn to draw pretty pictures. PAULINE VVILFERT Four out of five have it - the ambition to be a teacher-but only the fifth has the smile that wins. Pauline Wilfert is that lucky one, and her future pupils will surely like her as much as have her present class- mates, especially the Senior girls, in whose club she has been so active. JOSEPH WOODS Joe is a curly headed, ambitious fellow, always ready to discuss any social or economic problem. He intends to go to college, preferably Clark. ive wish him the best of luck, hoping he will both reach his goal and retain his curly hair. MARY ELIZABETH GEOGHEGAN Mary is most popular for her ready wit and her ability to recite, and often contributes poetry to the Nczrs. She is the very backbone of the Senior Girls' Club and takes a leading part in all its entertainments. Mary literally shines in Latin, a. subject to which she is very devoted. She hopes to go to Viforcester Normal School and we all know that she will succeed in every- thing she undertakes. Here's to your everlasting good fortune, Mary. 63 19,21 The Leonwine 1927 JAMES BOYLE He sure is some pumpkins. Ultra colleige with rolled stockings and everything. They say that Jimmie used to be afraid of the girls, but, oh my, how things have changed! He is now giving Francis Caisse a tough race for the title of the Champion Heart Breaker of L. H. S. YVe all just know that Jimmie is going to make good because he is also one of L. H. S.'s pool sharks. Good luck, Jimmie. MARGARET GLAVEN ive are very much afraid that Midgy is as incur- ably romantic as her fair hair and tiny stature. Any- way she writes poetry. Somehow Margaret gives us an impression of here now and gone the next minute, especially as she has been with us only a year and is going right off again to normal school, next fall. HAROLD GOODALE Harry Goodule as you all know was captain of our vietorious football team of 1925. His curly hair has attracted the attention of a little girl who has taken nmch of his time. Besides earning his letter in football he played on the baseball nine. FRANCIS GRADY An eight-foot stride with no stops on the cinder path is Rosie He not only made his letter in track but played end on the football eleven. He was a famous comedian and trombone player of the Mystery Synco- patorsf' Nothing seems to worry him - not even the girls. He was a member of Ta.t.ro's traffic squad. Rosie graduates as one of the most popular students in the school. WALTER 0'BRIEN lVnIso D V Yvalter is better known by his friends as Watso. He made his letter in baseball his last. year playing in the infield. Watso is a very popular boy in the school and we wish him all kinds of success. 64 1 T ff J '61 ramme l 1 L I l V P. ft 1927 The Leon.-ine 19527 THE ATHLETIC' COUNCIL Left to right: lvray Kimball, Haldie Nicholson, John Coburn, Harold Iiurdett, Dr. Perry, Irving Smith, Ralph Robbins. Eb? Qtljlttiw? An answer to the question why athleticsi' SCCIIIS very simple, but your answer and mine may be entirely different. Vvllftt- is the real object of athletics? Is it recreation, money, victories, school spirit, or what? All of these to a certain extent, yes, but is not good sportsmanship the real aim? Recreation is increasingly needed in the whirl of competitive living and is a balance wheel to preserve our sanityg money is a. prime essential in athletics t.o provide the coaches, equipment, and to pay the necessary expenses, victories are the laurel wreaths of success that must be won to preserve the team moraleg school spirit is essential, and t.he feeling of common ownershipv in our teams by faculty, pupils and t.he public, binds our many sided interests into a powerful unity unobtainable in any other way. An entire united city feels the thrill of a clean-cut victory. To a remarkable extent have our athletic teams become ad- vertisers of our city. The true American citizen l1as his education well balanced by recreational athletics. He is a world recognized example of good sportsmanship that is such an essential part of the real American citizen. That citizen, be he business or profes- sional man,who has derived from athletics the spirit of fair play and square dealing, has attained the ultimate aim of athletics -he is a good sportsman and a real American.

'7' Came to school and found myself as Popular as Ever. The Old Gang was still Hanging On. Took the Gang out on the Field and Fooled around awhile. Felt very Peppy this Morn- ing. I need it because I'n1 going to have visitors to- morrow. lNIy company did .come early. The Boys were very thoughtful and Consider- ate to-day. Got in a Mob with the Maynard Fellows. VVas Bruised and Rushed and Kicked about. Heard some one say the score was Q7 to 0. Didn't know what they Meant. At last got out of mob and started Home. Felt all Let Down. Heard the Gang was going to Haverhill so Bunnned along. Queer but every- where I go with them Guys I get in a Riot. My Gang got in in fight with Haver- hill. The Haverhill crowd got ahold of me and treated me pretty Rough. Our Leo- minster Beauties couldn't Rescue me to save their Necks. I was Knocked Down 37 times and My Gang couldn't Get Up once. 'Stew Bad. Went to a Cow Pasture in Northbridge. Roamed around awhile and then Returned Home. You Know Somebody said that 70 Pigskin l 1921 The Leon-fine 1997 Leominster Beat North- bridge 12 to -. Couldnit see any signs of a contest though. ltly Chums had a date with Clinton to-dayg they pushed me up and down the field then lugged me off. I'm getting tired of the way they treat me but guess I'll have to stand it. Saw a board with 292 to 6 written on it, and Clinton looked rather Glum. I tried to console them but failed. ' We played a game to-day with St. Johns, and won 33 to 7. I'm rather Sore because they treat me so cruelly. Blomberg sat on me and it made me feel Rather Flat for the rest of the day. Think I'll play against them for awhile and perhaps they'll be more careful with me. I played with Framingham to-day and we beat Leom- inster Q0 to 6. The Old Gang got peeved at me and didu't speak all the rest of the Day. They lugged me out of school to-day and man- handled me and treated me rough. Illl show them yet. Did help Cambridge. Beat them 12 to 0. Went home alone because I was afraid of what they would do to me. , 71 1927 The Leonfi-ne 1921 Nov. 2.3 6 13 20 .- Q6 Thot I'd punished them enough and so made up with them. Ive fought together against Boston College but a Wicked Ref- eree helped the other Gang and they won 7 to 0. Very Happy to-night be- cause we beat Gardner 45 t.o 0. - Ain't that the Cats? Guess it pays to work together. They XV8I'8l1,lf. so good as we thot that they would be. All Sore to-night. Got Banged around in a tuff game with lvakeneld, but we iinally won 7 to 0. I went to the Game with Fitchburg to-day. Fitch kept me all up in the air and beat us 20 to 0. I don't like this basketball style of game. Learned that I am doomed to stay in Fitch from now on. Kinda tufl losing my old comrades etc., but these Fitch fellows aren't so bad. '72 1927 The Leo-nfine 19227 Qnnals of the Qlrihe uf Zehras U11der the leadership of Chief Johnson. the zebra. tribe set forth to hurl off the evil spirits and bring victory to our Campfires. Our tribe was made up of stalwart youths, two of whom had become full-fledged warriors and wore the emblem of our creed. Great hfedicine Dian Schulte burned huge sacrifices and spent days training t.l1e braves. Our first great test. as warriors took place on the home stamping grounds where the warriors scalped their ancient foes, t.l1e Alumni t.ribe. Our youths hooped 33 scalps to their 21. VVe offered sacrifices to the Great. Spirit and then went on the warpath to conquer new lands. In seven suns we arrived at llforcester where the St. J ohn's tribe, which was waiting in ambush, surprised us, by taking 33 scalps to our 9. Our tribe prayed for help from the Great Spirit and on our next warpath which lead us into Clinton's territory, our prayers were answered for we returned victorious 20-15. Then a powerful tribe from VVorcester North attacked us unexpectedly and our tribe suffered great. losses, Q42-205. VVhile hledicine hlan Schulte was tra.ining our young bra.ves how to become better warriors, a little tribe from Hudson attacked us by surprise but we won Q9 trophies to their 19. From then on the evil spirits descended and almost brought destruction to our warriors. First one tribe a.nd then another brought defeat. to us. Gardner 35-13 Athol F25-12 St. John's 33-17 Gardner 33-Q0 y Hudson 33-12 Fitchburg 63-22 Clinton 30-Q0 Our tribe battled bravely and llledicine lllan Schulte offered many sacrifices to the Great Spirit, but the evil spirits were against us to the finish. We owe much to our brother tribesmen who gave many offerings for our bold warriors. In another summer we will move to a new hunting ground where our warriors will fight their best to carry the L. H. S. totem pole to new victories. '73 1927 The L607I'i'Il.B 1927 iquahfs ilauckep Team 1927 Braves and maidens gaze reverently upon the Junior Champion Hockey Team! lVIany moons ago, while the sun beat down on the big field behind the birch- bark Wigwam around which the camp of the Leominsterites was built in t.he moons of our ancestors who have passed on to the Happy Hunting Grounds, more than a score of laughing maidens with t.l1eir Princess-Chieftain Gay-Heart Kielty met to learn the art of playing hockey. Hockey, according to the big medicine men of our tribe, is an interesting frolic in which two rival wigwams struggle to push an insig- nificant ball between two totem poles. The maidens labored many hours on the vast plain learning to be athletes. Before the moon of Russet Apples passed into the Great Beyond, the innocent young Freshmen engaged in a plucky war against the more advanced Sophomores, and brought back to the Freshman Wigwam the scalp of the unhappy Sophomores. After a few suns had set in the Wlest, the jolly Juniors went out on the war path, fought a battle with the reverend Seniors, and were victors, laughing squaws of Juniors. Before many sleeps greeted the victorious warriors, Princess-Chieftain Gay-Heart Kielty again shot an arrow into the air and again the Junior hiaidens went out on the war path. This time they waged a fierce battle with the tiny Freshmen. Both wigwams displayed their great athletic prowess, but the Juniors due to their superior knowledge and ability, vanquished their sister classmen on the wide field behind the Wigwam of the House of Understanding. Thus through all the moon of Russet Apples, the maidens waxed strong in body and keen in mind due to the pleasant game of hockey and the lovely Princess- Chieftain Gay-Heart Kielty. 74 1927 The Leonine 1927 Svquatrfs Basketball-1927 Far and wide. through the tribal wigwams and council bowls, sounded the beating of the drums! The Junior squaws were the 1927 Champions in basketball! All during the long, cold season, t.he maidens labored daily beside the gay, tan hoops. To their Princess-Chieft.ain, Gay-Heart Kielty, the maidens seemed now worthy of the name of NEl,tl1l6lC8S,i, which the braves tell us means Princess- helpersf' lNIany suns went westward before Princess Kielty held the big contests. A certain group of kinswomen, lvigwam Q by name, were champions of the struggling young Freshmen, who made lVigwam 9 of their Sophomore sisters run the gauntlet many times, while the winners whooped with glee. One lVigwam, No. 8, was sent to uphold the honor of the Senior group. Although many sleeps were spent in hopeful waiting, the Sun God made the Seniors bow many tixnes before their Junior sisters. Again did the Sun God shine on the plucky group of Juniors from 20, who waged a battle against the rival Freshmen. They brought back victory and honor to the trophy roon1 of the Junior wigwam. All honor and praise to Princess-Chieftain Gay-Heart Kielty! 75 1927 The Leonvine 1927 Anrnmz SEWELL Baseball 1926 lVIy deare IVife: e I wrote to thee by my brotl1er Arthur. but I durst write no more tl1en I need 11ot care tllOllgl1 it. miscarried, for I found him tl1e olde man still: yet.

Thou might be interested in these scores so I take tl1e Liberty of writing them here. The Boys played Fram- ingham First a11d gotte 11 Runs as against 8 by their opponents by which I took half a crown from a Barber i11 Fitchburg, thanks to Hferbertj Corey which made a Double Play with hfr. Garrity. TIIEH they Beat Athol easily 8: won hIe another half crown although tl1e next Game they loste to Marlboro which I luckily did not bette 011. I was greatly disappointed by tl1e Errors which lost for them with 76 1927 The Leonzne 1927 Concord. Then I journed with them to Clinton and did get my knuckles rapped by a Policeman for cursing a most unfaire Judge which truth- fully Gypped them from winning and me from a whole crown. You will be pleased to heer that they Beat Fitchburg 2 games out of 3 and did disguste the latter thoroughly although Clinton did again beat them severly by 15 to 5. I nexte travelled to Athol where they trounced them by 12 Runs to 1 Sz it was One Sided. St. Johns beat Clinton which beat Leominster so I could make bettes most easily, however, Leo- 1ninst.er won and I Raked in Three Crowns. In Framingham t.hey battled most fiercely and did lose to a 4 to 5 score which was no great Disgrace which again happened at Concord when they lost by 6-7. hlarlboro did come to play them and was hardly beaten by 4--52 in a savage game in which a Paddy hioran 1na.de a most wonderfull Running Ca.tch, although they lost to Gardner in the next Game. This all Totals up to 7 won and 8 Lost and 6 crowns Won and 3 Crowns lost which pleases me muchly as they did not play Easy ma.rks but Good teams. A lNIr. Hirst did Throw the ball most beautifully Sz all the members played Hard and Clean ball which leads me to belive that Leominster is ahead of some Other Teams in Sportsmanship.

Schulte, the latter on Prize Drille Day, and the hiemorial Daye, directed by the oflicers of the garrison. These officers were chosen for excellence in voice, and knowledge of militarie tactics. Also the officers did select several members from eache colnpanie, to compete in an indi- vidual prize drille, on the 520th of May An. 1927. But the Lord sawe fitte to pour forth the vials of 'his wrath in a heavy downpour of rain so that ye Prize Drille was postponed.

These girls for ye creation of a spirit of friendliness and good will ha.ve formed a. club in which none of the male speeie are in evidence, as is signified bye its name, The Senior Girls' Clubf' Being familiar with the lawes of government, these ladies did choose a member of the facultie, lllistress Tully, to be an aide in all their work. For other ofiicers they did select Mistress Dorothy Gardner, for president and general manager, vice- president, Mistress Irene Page: secretary, Mistress Gwendolyn J ohnsong treasurer, hlistress Katherine Sullivang arranger of ye meetings, hlistress hfarjorie Doyle. Regular assemblies were helde every other Wlednesday night. In October they did entertain the Freshmen girls at a Halloween balle, and followed this festivite, by a partie for the Junior Females, conducted with much joie at Yuletide. Know your hiajestie tl1a.t the Senior Girls also did putte on a. playe, in cooperation with ye LEONINE, wherebye much monies were acquired. But moste Illustrious Lord, no ladies can longe resiste the charmes of the opposite sex. These younge persons, being no exceptions to the rule, entertained the men of the Senior Class, if the unsophisticated lads of this countree may be so classed. But giving entertainments, and parties, hfajestie, is not tl1e ultimate aime of this Senior Girls' Club. They are bending all their energies to raising monie for a one hundred dollar scholarship, to assist some diligent lllelllbere of ye classe. I remain, Sire, your most humble obedient servant, CSirj L. LEONINE. 87 4 ENGLISH CLUB 1927 The Leowine 19527 Ee Qtlnglisbe ftiluhhe President ...... ....

Laste yeare by the grace of God and the Student Teacher Council, Leominster Highe Schoole did forme a Chapter of this Organization. It consists of not more than 1f15 of the Senior Class, one part to be chosen at ye end of ther Junior year, and the major portion during the last yeare of ther scholastic labors. These members are chosen by a hoard consisting of 7 of ye august and honor- able facultie. Election doth depend upon candidates' excellence in character, service, scholarship, and leadership. Thus fa.r ther has been chosen suche, 14- illllO11g ye class of 26, 10 from ye class of 27.

Friends, cuntrmen Sz neighbours: lVe salute you, and wish you all health and hapines in ye Lord. We make bould with these few lines to trouble you. Seeing it faleth out that we cannot conferr together, we think it meete to show you ye just cause R reason for our existence as a body in this communite. For many yeeres past we have felt the neede of an organisation wherein we coulde sharpen our mindes 82 wits so that we mite better harry out of this land those wicked and uneasy creatures who doubt the wisdom of our God. Yet we did not embark on this perilous voyage untile the good Lord, evidentle pitying our sory and troubled plight, sent the representatives of Ye Clarke Universite to our shores, with the necessary assurance. Accepting their assistance we made a gradual Sz humble starte as is befitting for servants of ye Lord. In our firste combate we met t.he scholars of Ye Holden Highe Schule near lvorcestshire. VVhile Brother N ancollas Sz Sister Skinner were valiantly going down as martyres before the onslaught of Satan's earthly repre- sentatives, Brother Lyon 81. Sister Reynolds persuaded our mistaken 8 unfortunate Holden brethern to desiste from embarking on a policy of compulsore automobile insurance which was at wide variance with the laws of God Sz man. p After experiencing a ray of light, twenty-three scholars of Ye Leominster Highe Schule, with God above, formed a permanent clube, to be called Ye Forum, to more effectively withstand the subtle members of Satan's hosts. And yet we are willing to expose ourselves to shuch eminente dangers as are like to occur, 85 trust to ye good providence of God. Thus saluting all of you in love, and beseching ye Lord to give a blessing to our endeavore, and keepe all our harts and mindes in ye bonds of peace ik love, we take leave Sz rest. Yours, Sze. YE FORUM 91 1927 The Leonine 1927 e GIRLS' GLEE CLUB jllilusical Qhrganigatinns in 1. Zia. S. The Old Bard sat before his Wigwam and gazed into the distance and dreamed. A young squaw went by, giggled as young squaws do, and thought, An evil spirit has stolen tl1e old bard's brain. He can sing no longer. He sits and dreamsf' But she did not know what the old bard saw in his mind when he gazed beyond the village into the distant forest. He was back in his youth, taking again the trail he had followed in his youth when he had gone on a long journey visiting other tribes, making music for them and hearing their bards sing of their warriors, heroic deeds. One tribe brought to his mind most pleasant memories. The tribe called itself L. H. S. and the tribe people loved music for its own sake not as a medium for telling heroic tales of the war path or the hunt. Even the young maidens formed a group, calling themselves Girls' Glee Club and lifting their sweet voices in song at every tribe festival. There were four young braves with charming voices who sang for the glory of the tribe whenever they were needed. They were well beloved of the tribe and when men said, The hfale Quartet will sing around tl1e campfire, the hearts of all beat happily and tl1ey came to listen. 92 1927 The Leonivze 1927 ORCHESTRA The Great Spirit had given the tribe a wonderful collection of strange instru- ments which made sweet music when clever braves and squaws could play them. These instruments and their players were given the name of Orchestra.. Their Chief was a. squaw, hliss Brown. There was 1nucl1 magic in her, without doubt, for how else could she have done such wonderful work? Once the old bard chuckled softlyg he was thinking of the mystery syncopaters. This was a group of young braves who were full of gaiety and high spirits and wanted to make the rest of the tribe laugh with t-116111. They found some magic instruments like those tl1e Orchestra used and they played gay a.nd lively music. Two of the braves could sing and they sang amusing ballads. There were un- explained members. They couldnit sing and they only pretended to play instru- ments. They were there perhaps because they were good looking or Qthis explana- tion pleased the old bard betterj they were so utterly foolish that they could make others laugh even when the music couldn't. 93 19:27 The Ijeonlinc 19227 Mba Hams Staff The you11g warriors and the old chiefs were gat.l1ered about the camp fire to relate thrilling tales of past prowess in the hunt or on the war path. After a time there came a long pauseg the old chiefs had finished their tales and the youths were dreaming of the stirring deeds they would perform before they, too, were old and sat about the camp fire telling stories to their grandchildren. Suddenly a young warrior arose and, wrapping his blanket about him, stood majestically silent in the light of the camp fire, thinking how he would begin the wonderful tale he had to unfold. All eyes were turned inquiringly upon him, when, presently he began his story. Oh, chiefs, I am yet too young to have any deeds of bravery and skill t.o tell, but I have had a dream, a dream of such strangeness, that I would tell it to you, before the assembled warriors, that you may tell whether it has not some bearing 011 the future of our tribes. As I lay sleeping in my wigwam last night it seemed that my spirit made a long journey into the distant hunting grounds of a strange tribe. Now this tribe called itself the News Staff. It had strange rites and customs and its chief was a squaw called Editor. Beside the chief sat Faculty Advisor. One of the strange customs of this tribe was to write upon pieces of bark all that went on among the neighboring tribes and give it to the other tribes to read. They used a strange and wonderful machine in doing this - a machine which had recently been presented to them by some friends of t.l1e tribe. In fact, this peculiar rite seemed to occupy all of their time, and whenever they seemed to grow weary of it the Editor Squaw scolded fiercely and made loud prayers to one of their gods called School Spirit, until they began again. 94 1927 The Leonine 1927 When I came into the tribe there seemed to be much excitement because Editor and Faculty Advisor were planning a new way of performing the old rite. They seemed to want the tribe to keep the ceremony all its own and not share with a neighboring tribe called Printer. The Printer tribe was not very friendly because it robbed the News tribe of much of its wampum. A young brave helped the Editor Squaw to teach the tribe a new feast dance which symbolized the bark custom and did honor to the School Spirit god. All the neighboring tribes were invited to the ceremony and they pledged their friendship to the News tribe. I had been in the village of the tribe for several moons when the Editor squaw began to plan a new feast. She invited a friendly tribe called LEONINE Staff to join them in the feast. The chiefs of both tribes made long speeches, and the warriors and squaws feasted together and became very friendly. The Faculty Advisor squaw prepared the feast. and every one was much pleased. The LEONINE Chief helped in the ceremonies and seemed to be a very great chief indeed. Before many moons had passed, the News Staff tribe found its supply of wampum almost gone. This was very serious for in the peculiar tribe wampum was more important than corn or hunting, for without wampum the bark ceremony must be given up. Then, they gave a great feast and invited all the neighboring tribes, and telling all who came to bring offerings of wampum to the School Spirit god. They called this feast the Card Party. In this way the tribe again had all the wampum it needed and prayers of thanksgiving were offered to the gods, that the bark might still be sent to the neighboring tribes. s Once many tribes came to consult with the News Staff. There was a great. ceremony and many speeches. They called this council the C. M. I. P. A. meeting. New chiefs were elected, entertainment and a great feast was provided for the visitors. They went away with friendly feelings for the News Staff and all promised to meet together for another council after some moons had passed. That is all, oh chief 5 I have spoken. What is t.l1e significance of my dl'93,l1l?,, The old chiefs shook their heads and were silent, and in a few days they sent the young brave to the happy hu-nting groundshlest his foolislmess anger the Great Spirit and bring disaster on the tribe. 31221115 Staff , , , Athletic Editor, Lnsnns Bwninnae Ef11f0f-H1-Fluff, LILUAN RICKER Assistants, JACK KEv1L1.E, MURIEL KINGSBURX' Assistant Editor, JOHN Jorcm 44,5 Emito,-3 Associate Editor, Amos MEAD THUSNELDA SITRAMME ARTHUR HOLLAND News Editor, JANET PORTER Business Manager, VVILLARD Conmss Assistant, LIADELINE INIURPHY A'5'5'iS'f 1 PAUL LYON Lffermy Efmm., IZORA BRACKETT Production M snags?

Last night Auntie Pa- tience took me to the theat.re. hfy conscience troubled ine at the wickedness but I disliked to be discourteous and refuse the invitation. I hope you will agree with me that it was better to be kind than holy. The play dealt with horse racing and I fear hir. Hopemore would find that an added evil. The hero of tl1e play was an actor called Joseph Toolin. He was good looking and a very good actor. It seemed sad that he should follow such a wicked profession. There were seven other men in the play and three women. The hero was in love with a lady, Bliss F airfax, who unwittingly made him very unha.ppy by persuading him to ride in a steeple-chase when he was quite afraid of horses. The program said lNIiss Lillian Ricker acted the role of lNIiss Fairfax. There was one lady who seemed to me careless and impulsive. Auntie Patience said she knew the actress, lNIiss Dorothy Gardner, and assured me that that is not at all her true character. There was but one other woman in t.he play, ltfrs. Gilford, whose real name is Miss Burchstead. She shocked me considerably. Why, mother, she actually suggested that the others in the play, play cards. There was a villain, Larry Crawford, whom I did not like at all. He was most unkind to hir. Harrington and hfiss Fairfax. I suppose I shouldn't have been interested in such a wicked thing as a horse race but I really couldn't help being glad that he was beaten. There were other famous actors in the play whom you may have heard of Charles VVhee1er, Edward Jackman, Ralph Kirkpatrick, Raymond Piper, Lawrence Nye, and Blair Whitney. Your obedient daughter, PRISCILLA DEANE. 98 19227 The Leonline Bzapzwigzjfrulics In the shades of grand Monoosnuck, Near the swift and fiowing river Stood the House of Understanding Where the braves of Highskuliteyes, Sons and daughters of the Sun-God, Turned their minds to books of men, Turned their minds to songs and dances. Whenuthe wind of happy flowers Gaily danced o'er Mt. ltfonoosnuck, Gaily danced amid the sunshine, Gathered friendly Highskuliteyes, Gathered they upon the campus. There upon the field of battle Struggled they in friendly conflict. There our warrior, Big-Chief-So-White, VVon the highest of the honors. In the silver hush of twilight Underneath the Star of Evening As it trembles through the purple, Hangs suspended in the nightfall, lVIet the warriors and their maidens, lilet they in the flag-draped Wigwam, hiet they there for joy and dancing. While the foremost of the braves, Big-Chief-So-White With his comrade, Sweet-Faced Gardner, Led them through the dizzy maze, Led them through t.he happy dancing, Led them into vales of darkness, When the drums gave up their wailing. On the eve of great Thanksgiving, Of that bleak historic day Met they there for merry-making, Tried to chase their griefs away. Danced they though their hearts were heavy. Danced beneath the black and orange, While their chieftain, Pale-Faced-Lyon, 99 19297 The Le0n'ine 95? Revelled with their fellow kinsinen, F ellow-kinsmen, Jolly Juniors, And their tribesrnen, Hig hsknliteyes. In the moon of Flying Snowflakes, When the winds swept over Monoosnuck. Gaily danced the reverend Seniors, Danced they 'neath the pines and holly, Danced they while the drums were beating Danced they though they had no favors. For their curly headed Chieftain Left his favors home reposing, VVhile his thoughts iiew on to Fitchburg. Fitchburg, home of dainty maidens. Then he cried, O-Big-Pill Leger, Dance for us the Charleston and the others That the time may be more happy. Then did Big-Pill Leger dance, Dance the weird and half-crazed motion As the warriors urged him on. Wlhile the maidens and the warriors Danced beneath the stars of midnight, Danced and gaily inunehed refreshments, Refreshments sweet and decked with pine s Laughing gaily plodded home. Then the minds of Highskuliteyes, Sons and daughters of the Sun God, Turned again to books of men, Turned again to books of nature. So through all the moon of school life, hfoons of joy and moons of sorrow, Do the friendly Highskuliteyes Laugh, and play, and dance, and revel. 100 prigs.

We sende you this letter full of friendship and goodly wishes t.o assure you of the intereste we maintaine in all your labours. It giveth us all goode contente when you suceed, just as it grieveth us to see your dificulties. Well do we know that bothe your school and yourselves will be profited much by these very endeavors. Let it not, therefore, be grievous unto you that you have been instrumentes to breake the way for others who shall come after you with less dificulty, but rather looke upon this as youre privilege and youre honour. We didst leave oure High School for the laste time as studentes at graduation time, and no marvele was it if we were downcast even in our joye for we were leaving behinde us something very deare to us all. i VVith us we tooke memories of many houres of work and play with faculty, undergraduates, and each other. Our achievements, we do hope, didst overbalance our mistakes, which seemed so unavoidable at t.he time. Yet 'tis only by admitting the latter and looking at them fairly and squarely can ye present students excelle thy predecessors. Being right glad if you have profited any by our laboures and our follies, we hope you will ca.ll upon us whenever you neede loyal support. W'e joyefully helped to lay a foundation for Student Participatory Government, scholarship and a.thletic records, English Club, L. H. S. News, and the LEONINE. The worke required is seemingly very burdensome at the time, but in retrospect it seems such a smalle part of what ther is to doe. Haveing thus graduated we are now apprentices to a world of facts and truthes, being sometimes much frightened by their immensity. Whatever may be our main interests now, still do we cling to that same staunch ideal of service, not for our- selves alone but for all who will follow us on. 'Thus the spirit of former endeavors urges us to strive toward an ideal of co-operation in peace and prosperity in this our worlde. hlore and more are we thankefull for those advantages which our Alma hiater afforded us. Are we still worthy of being graduates of Leominster High School? We must not forgette that whatsoever we do or say may be a cause for praise or criticism of, our school, of indifference or interest toward its activities. Ye presente students doe remember to worke as hard as ye are able for there remains much to be done. The alumni know ye will do your best and thus each class will make Leominster High School greater and Hner. Thus with best wishes for sucesses far more worth-while than ours - Your assured friends, APYHIQS THE ALUMNI.

See the big bonireli' I gazed out into the inky blackness of night. All was peaceful in the east. Perhaps the Viscoloid was on fire. No, all was calm in the south. By some strange chance was Fitchburg being dynamited? Not so, all was serene in the north. Could it be - P Yes, it was. Far to the west, exactly where the high school stood, was a blaze of glowing red. As in a daze, I dressed and ran as rapidly as possible to the High School. What a sorry sight met my eyes! Before me, the deadly fire, fanned by the strong wind, was eating away the partitions while the flames contentedly licked the gaunt structure. High into the sky soared the flames. Redder, still redder, higher, still higher, did the angry fire beat its way. Then, almost as if by magic, the wind died away and the flames fell back into the glowing embers of what had been Leominster High School. But what of our precious books? VVith tears streaming down my cheeks, I began to search in the darkening ashes for traces of Cicero. What a shame it would be if Cicero, after having survived through all these years, should pass out of existence now! Praise be! there was his shining face beaming at me from the ruined covers of an old Latin book. Tenderly I clasped it to my heart and looked about for my Algebra book. Poor hir. Coburn! There he stood gazing mournfully at the ashes of Room 10 and the book-room while I sadly picked up what was left of a fire-stained, water-soaked book. Yes, it was Algebra, but the only page left was a table of logarithms. Pray tell, how was I to use logs if there were no examples to do? But where was my Le Petit Journal?,' Did you ever, there it was safe and not even discolored. Of course, nothing would happen to you, when I didnlt finish my French translation. At any rate, lNIiss Duval will be glad. VVhat a pathetic, appealing figure Miss Willis made as she hunted hopefully for her assign- ment book. No doubt, she was wondering if a five-hundred page theme would be too short for her sixth period English class. Beside her stood Itffiss Tully thanking her lucky stars that Caesar was at last not only dead but also buried. What more could I want? But saddest of all was hffiss Greensfelder who tenderly lifted the remains of the 1927 LEONINE, kissed it tenderly, and buried it reverently beneath the ashes of L. H. S. Itlay it rest in peace! Then I saw a 107 1927 The Leon-i-ne 1927 strange sight. The cheinical laboratory was blowing up exactly like a balloon. Larger and larger it grew. What a. dreadful noise it would make! Larger, larger, and still larger, it. grew until just as I was going to ---- Dorothy, dear. it's time t.o get up if you're going to school this morning. What a. perfectly thrilling dream! If only the High School had burned down, I could go for a hike, but no such luck. - D. Reynolds.

Open up my bloomin' locker before I go crazy. I've been waiting ten minutes already. Wiatch out or I'll paste you in the nose. Don,t you know that you stepped on my foot? Pull this jersey off for meg I want to take a shower some time before midnight. Wihat the h-as the matter with this shoelace? Don't stand there like a statueg get me a knife and see to it that it doesn't take you all night. That bunch of wallfiowers must think that I'm a paper hanger or something, always willing to plaster them with their wishes. YVell, they have got another thought coming. After having an opportunity to get my breath back. I am suddenly aroused to my labors by eight or ten husky voices howling for towels. Do you think Iim a servant and porter? Come get them yourselves. You are not all physically disabled because Blomberg, the big horse, is disinclined to move his lazy carcass. Ouch! Leave 1116 alone. I didnit mean anything by it. VVatch out for my shirt. You brutes will rip it. OH, how you birds will suffer if you put me under the cold showers. Help! ltfurder! Police! I'm drowning! Let me up or I'll put your names on the black list. You all know revenge is sweet. Come on, you big bunch of babies, a.nd get your milk. Richardson, isn't two pints- of milk enough to supply your weak constitution with enough nut.rition to get home on? Brown, put that new jersey back in the lockerg you've got two already. Peewee, watch those guys or they will run off with what they have previously left in the school. Thank God, that gang is gone. I can't imagine how I would feel if I didn't have my daily squabbles with the boys. lvhat, is it half past six? Felix, I'll lock up to-night, but you will have to do it the remainder of the week. All lights out. Hurrah! I can now go home in a peaceful mind, with a clear conscience for the first time in weeks. This racket is wearing away my nerves and I can't possibly see how I will be able to last the rest of the season. L. Stein. little Ulibings Bly days are filled with little things, .

Zlhhentures nf Benny Benny came into my life the third period, a.nd was most entertaining a.nd com- panionable until he left at the end of the fourth period. Benny was small for his age but most unusually agile. Otherwise, how could he have jumped from the ground into the library window? Benny was a common variety of grasshopperg that is, common in everything but intelligence. Packed away in his small head must have been an unusually active brain for he seemed to understand just what his duty was to the world. VVhen he came jumping through an open window and landed on the floor, he seemed surprised by the strange sights around him. Then, as his first fright wore off he became more and more inquisitive, hopping around in a comical fashion and eyeing the books in a knowing way. Finally, becoming bored with this he hopped up on my desk and said, Well, what are you going to do for entertainment? Just then the bell rang and hitching a rope around his neck I hauled him into class with me. As this particular faculty member has an acute eye, possession of Benny became exceedingly awkward. I concealed him in a handy desk until a bright idea struck me. Lewy had just come in and set his bag beside his desk. Carefully concealing Benny, I hitched him to the handle of the bag, leaving about four feet of thread as leeway. The recitation began, I was called upon to prove a proposition. When my eye fell upon Benny and I collapsed into my chair, the teacher looked surprised for a moment and then, Lewis, can you prove this propositioniw' I think so, drawled Lewy and started to get up. Benny, evidently thinking it was time to act, jumped on Lewis' hand. Lewy started to climb over the deskg 110 . ' 1927 The Leonine 1927 then he sa.w that it was only Benny and burst into hysterical laughter. Again the teacher started, but tried again. F ortunately, tl1e next victim didn't see Benny and so was able to stumble through the proof. During the rest of t.he period Benny kept. us in tears. Finally the bell rang. In our hurry to get away from the teacheris watchful eye we forgot all about poor Benny and it wasn't until recess that we discovered him dragging around after Lewy's bag, as flat as a pancake and as dead a.s a door nail. R. Barrett. jllilr. Qtr Masters Anna, Ilm dying to meet them. Bill,s been telling me about Art. He must be the limit. If I were Teresa -l, I interrupted her with a smile, Beth, darling, if you were Teresa. - or Bill or I for that matter you'd do just what we do - put up with him, a.nd enjoy doing it. He's that kind of man. Oh yesf' I added, as I saw her preparing to deny it, you think he's impossible, but wait. Before you've known him a whole day you'll be saying with the rest of us, 'Oh, of course, if it were any one else I would be furious, but it's Art's way. ' Anna Carey, you and Bill, yes, and Ifll say Teresa. too, even if I don't know her, you're just weak minded. It would be good for his soul to have some one tell him what they thought of him. I can't stand any one who never considers any one else. Just because he's good looking and has a 'charming personality' is no rea.son why he should take life easy and ride rough shod over his fellow man's feelings. I was used to this. Every one talked like that when Art was described for them. But when they'd seen him -- Well, I just changed the subject and waited for time - and Mr. Art Masters to change Beth's mind for her. Two hours later Bill, Beth, and I were on our way to the station to meet the lNIasters, Art and Teresa, brother and sister. Bill, I forgot to tell you, is my hus- ba.nd, and Beth, a girl friend of mine who was visiting me for tl1e first time since I'd been married five years ago. She had to be introduced to my new circle of friends and I was beginning on t.he most import.ant, the Blasters. Bill was enjoying himself hugely, describing Art and Teresa to Beth. He was trying to overdo it a little when he saw how Beth was taking it. I say trying because you really couldn't overdo a description of Art., l1e's really the limit. of l1is kind. I-Ie's the sort of man who cheerfully breaks an appointment or appears when he gets around to it, smiles sweetly and makes you feel that you've been honored by being kept waiting. The twelve-fifty from Centerton came into the station and pretty little Teresa lllasters came down the step - alone! Bill didn't even hope for the best, he be- lieved the worst and chuckled. Beth sniffed and spoke sarcastically, It seems as if Mr. Masters is proving so true to form that I'm not going to have the pleasure Cspoken with rising inilectionj of meeting him. ' 111 1927 The Leon-ine 19527 After Beth and Teresa had been introduced and we were tucking Teresa and her luggage into the car. she produced Artfs explanations. It,s really too funny, Annaf' Teresa. explained gaily, and so like him, isn't it? He actually forgot. all about coming down here for the week end and went off to that party. I was nearly frantic until he 'phoned. Honestly though, he'll be down on the nine-ten to-night. lVithout fail, I made him promise not to forget. at least sixteen times. Even then. I told him. I wouldn't. trust him not to start suddenly on a trip t.o Africa. and forget all about me. I'm sorry he had to make such a dreadful impression on you, Ilffiss Lane. I suppose you think he's the inexcusable limit? Fortunately, I caught Beth's eye before she could say anything as sarcastic as she looked and after swallowing her first attempt she politely gave the reply that Teresa was quite evidently expecting of her. Oh, after all Bill has told me about him I'm sure I'm going to -understand him as the rest of you seem to. Some people are naturally quite irresponsible but I suppose that doesn't injure their popularity -- with their friends. N ine-ten. and we sat in the car and waited for the train. Nine-twenty and still we waited. Teresa and I were getting nervous. Beth, with as worried a look as she could summon, asked Bill, You don't suppose IXIr. Blasters has infcctcd the engineer with his own irresponsibility and got him to head the train in the opposite direction? Teresa was too worried to notice the sarcasm and I thanked heaven for that. Nine-t.hirty and even Bill was getting worried. I say, were you waiting for some one to come on the nine-ten, hfr. Carey? It was Les Hunt.. the station master. lVhy, yes, Bill answered. anything wrong? 'Fraid there isf' The way Hunt looked pityingly at Teresa who had turned pale and was leaning forward listening, made my heart. turn right over. There's been a terrible accident. I just had a call. Everything pretty badly smashed up. Some killed, I'm afraid. and a good many badly hurt. Hope this won't affect youf, He walked away. not seeing anything else to say. Teresa fainted, I think. I was crying hysterically and Bill was rather pale and helpless looking. Even Beth was moved a little, but as it didn't affect her so directly she could keep calm and guide the rest of us. That was the worst night I ever spent - or ever expect to spend. Bill went off in the car t.o t.he scene of the wreck. Teresa was positivly ill with crying and worrying. Nor was there anything calm about me. It must have been hard on poor Beth. She tried to calm us but it didn't. help much. About eight o'clock in the morning, Beth thought. of breakfast and tried to make us eat. lve sat around tl1e table and looked tearfully from our plates to the front window. Every time a car went by, Teresa gasped or screamed. Then, the door bell rang. I really couldn't have moved no matter what had happened. Teresa just fainted. Beth went to the door and I heard her speaking to some one in the hall. Then - oh could it be true? such joy was unbelievable - Art's voice, 112 1927 The L6O'll-'1i'll.6 19327 gay, breezy, as usual, Oh, hello. Where's everybody? Teresa get here all right? Say, you must be hiiss Lane, aren't you? You are? lVell, I can't tell you how glad I am to know you. I'll have to tell Anna she doesn't half know how to describe her friends. I suppose you've guessed 1,111 Art llIasters?i' Somehow I got to the door. Art, Art, oh goodness, where have you been? You aren't hurt at all? Oh - 6'Say, Anna, whatis the ma.tter? You're paler than Cleopatrais ghost. Hurt.? I'll say I'm not! lVho said I was? Oh, Beth, tell him! I'm so gladI can't speak, I was crying a.gain as I rushed into the dining room to Teresa.. She hadn't really fainted but she was quite !! limp in her chair. Anna, tell me 1,111 not dreaming! He really isn't hurt a bit? Oh, Art, as he came int.o the room with Beth. I've been frightened almost. to death. Say, honest, sis, honey, this is the limit, Art was bending over l1er solicitously but laughing nevertheless. Really, you know, it's just like me. I missed that confounded train - met a fellow I knew and couldn't. get away from himg it was the last train. too, worse luck! But I got the first train this morning, you can bet. Honest., Anna, I did want to get here. Say, hliss Lane, you must have a fierce opinion of me for causing all this trouble - the rest of you are sore, t.oo, Iill bet - Teresa and I laughed away his apologies as we always did. Q Sore? lVl1y, Art hlasters, if you knew how glad we were to know you're alive! How could you help missing the train? M Bill was there suddenlyg came in looking as if he were condemned to hang and brightened up like a lost youngster who sees its mother. No word of anger or blame. There never was for Art. lVell, Art hlastersl I'd rather see you tha.n a million dollars. Some guardian angel you must have. Good thing you proved true to form - Art stopped suddenly, Youire all such good sports, after I frightened you so. but I hate to make such a bad impression on hliss Lane. lVe all looked at Bethg Bill and I were wondering what would come next, lvhat would Beth, the unrelenting, who i'hadn't any use for that kind of manf, what would she say? Bad impression? Goodness, lNIr. lliasters, I'm about to ask you to promise never to be on time for a train as long as you live. Willy your character is as lucky as - it is charming! This from Beth. Art gave her a. grateful slnile and Beth smiled back so that I knew our charming Art had won - as usual. I.. Ricker. l 113 S1927 The Leonine 1927 y if A M Q H . IOKES i 4..!s12s:n X- 0 4 1 Q Q?

'bis-'S' A TALK WITH YE FARMER Earlie September is ye time for plant- yng ye mark plants of ye A, B, and C. varieties. They shoulde be planted earlie ande deepe, -ande then they will not require as much care in ye later monthes. Ye A plants require extreme patience ande perseverence on ye parte of ye grower. They must have constante care, or they will wilt long before ye harvest- ynge in June. So if ye have the intention of plantyng ye A's in September, be prepared to spende long ande tedious houres in ye care of your plants. Ye B and C plantes, on ye other hande, are somewhat more hardie. Most of ye farmers succeed in harvestynge as many as they do plant. If they do not receive a little care, however, they will soon wilte. Remember, therefore, that a plant in ye grounde is worthe a dozen seeds in ye bagge. In ye raising of any of ye above plants, beware of ye F-weed. Especiallie if ye A, B, ande C plants are not cared for, this weed will prevent ye proper growthe of ye saide plants, ande ye harveste will be in sore distresse. ii.,--i YE VALUE OF BOOKES A few goode bookes, well reade, are better than many, hence ye choice shoulde be ye best which can be made. A goode free library is a boon to anie towne. Ye evenings are longe in ye winter, ande ye out-of-doore worke does not presse as at other times.

He remaineth up of ye wee small houres at ye huskings and barn dances and doth indulge in ye pettynge. He is ye bane of ye teachers, and they do say of him that he disgraceth ye skule. BUT! ! Ima Shirke is beloved 'of his comrades tt his heart is light it his brain un- burthened with ye Latin and ye Greek, while Earnest Stewdente is laughed at for his endeavors. Ima Shirke is every body's friend, while Earnest Stewdente is sometimes inclined to be backward in ye ways of ye worlde tk priggish.
