THE NEWTON HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL Sudden came he to a forest, Where, on velvet moss and grasses, Many little folk were dancingg And upon a couch of blossoms Lay their Queen, the smiling Summer. Glooskap caught her up and kept her- By a crafty trick he kept her! Cutting long cord from a moose-hide, Glooskap trailed the end behind him, Then as they, the white light fairies Pulled the cord to stay his progress. Glosskap payed it out, and left them Far behind, in the dim distance. North he ran-to visit Winter- But he had fair Summer with him, Safely sheltered in his bosom. Winter welcomed him with gladness, For he thought this time to freeze him Into sleep which knows no waking! This time Glooskaplv charm was strongest! VVinter's stern cold face grew softer- Lol he melted! and thereafter lVhere his Wigwam stood, a lake lay, In whose blue depths clouds were mirrored. Everything awoke-the grass grew- All the snow ran down the rivers, Bird-songs echoed in the woodlands. Leaving Summer with her fairies, Homeward Glooskap turned his footsteps, To the land of soft gray Morning, To the land of golden Sunrise. As he ceases, to the lakeside l Carrabassett turns, and gazes O'er its sunset tinted surface, Toward the south-the land of Sunshine- Land whence comes the glad warm Summer. f AQ' ... af' tm' ffl, .

With her birds and fragrant flowers? Listen now, to this traditiong f ' X One of Carrabassett's legends, VVhieh he tells as o'er the mountains, Slowly sinks in all his splendor, Sol, the Monarch of the Daylight. Long ago, when lived our people In the early soft gray Morning, Glooskap wandered far to northward, To the icy land of Snowdrifts. There he met the Snow King, 'Wintcrg Went with him into his Wigwam, Made of frozen rain-bow crystals: There they talked and smoked, but slowly Glooskap felt his eyelids closing- 'Twas the Frost, the charm was on him, VVinter froze-and Glooskap slumhered. Six long moons waned ere he wakened, Then in haste he journeyed southward. Vifarmer grew the air-and flowers Cheered him with their happy faces, Told him all their sweetest secrets.
