28 THE PI-IILLIPIAN WHEN THE WAR CAME S we all realize by this time, we are at war with nations which are not peace-loving, but whose chief ambition is to rule the world. I will take my case and show how this crisis has aEected my life. I am a high school girl in a small town in northern Maine. In peace time we went skiing, skat- ing, and to nearby towns to movies and dances. After December 7th, when Pearl Harbor was bombed, we thought a little about it, but never having been terrorized by war, we kept on with our good times. Then the boys we have always known began to disappear. Gasoline rationing came but still we man- aged to Find enough to get to nearby towns. As usual I went to camp to work. Busi- ness was so poor I changed jobs, hoping that the restaurant business would be better, but gradually, as the summer wore away, I would Find more and more faces missing from among the young people who used to come there evenings to dance. In the fall I returned home to find many of my old friends gone. Now they come home once in a while but wearing Uncle Sam's clothes. The other day we had a little stronger and more vivid idea of what war is really like. This came when Prof. read the announce- ment of the death of one of the best kids that ever came to our school. I think I realize better now what war really is. I know that it is not merely fight- ing, but that we at home must do our part to insure a lasting peace, to guarantee that the children now growing up will never have to lay down their lives. G. K. '43. THE IDEAL PLACE The mountains rose lofty and white Gleaming in the noon day light, On the river bright with ice Groups of people skated and thought, How nice. The weather changed and the mountains grew green. The ice thawed and the water flowed by, pure and clean. The tourists Oh-ed and Ah-ed Because such scenery they had never seen, near or afar. Summer came: and swimming aplenty. The mountains loomed high and mighty, We see this scenery every day, We, the people of Phillips, U. S. A. H. L. B. '46.
