OU R HIGH SCHOOL - -.--f er' IN NAHONAL D:,?:.N:fL Most of us in high school are too young to stop school and enlist in the army or work in industry to relieve men for National Defense. However, we, as high school students, have an important role in winning the war and making peace. A war is won, especially the one in which we are now engaged, at home as well as by our armed forces. We students of high school should start a conservation program under which we should use paper more wisely, eat less candy, and above all, take care of the things which we now have' We have already started First Aid classes which I be lieve are everyone's duty to enter I think our Bible Study class may be playing its part in National Defense too Isn't it our duty to stay close to God through the trying days ahead? We must not think only of winning the war, but of the conditions which will exist afterwards lducation will be the most important weapon ln organizing the wo d after the chaos through which it will pass Therefore, lt is every boy's and g1r1's duty to do his best to receive an education Wilma Poland '43 b1'014.f,.v full fri DU:'x.rXflCN One of the big questions today is will sports be played for the duration of the war? Personally I think they should, not only because I like to play, but I think it would be a morale builder and would keep people's minds occupied so that they wouldn't worry about the things that are going on in the world today Baseball will be played this summer in the different leagues because the president has given the green light to go Many of the players will go into the service, but there are of stopping it is getting too few cash customers to pay the expenses of the club This summer there w'l1 be all star games played in the big leagues from which the profit will go to buy sport equipment for the armed forces These teams will also play service teams for exhibition games Football will be played ln the colleges this fall, and on their schedule there are games with service football teames Probably sports to a certain extent will be curtailed for the duration, but I hope they play as long as they possibly can. Besides taking up the cares of mind, sports also build strong bodies so that our soldiers will be toughest in the world, As one soldier h s sa1d,'You keep 'em playing, and we'll keep 'em flying W So good luck to sports Leland Dunham '42 O .

JCHOXJ' IMfKflVF1NflfNf When a country is at war the morakaof the people not of the soldiers is essential in the winning of the fight Are we to go about with a mile long face murmuring, How terr1ble9n No' Let us get organized and start a worthwhile project Ever since I started in high school at Bryant Pond, the thing that has stood out most in my mind is the condition of our school grounds especially the bank between the gym and the school house Isn't it possible for 8 club to be formed with the pur pose of improving this situation? It would take less than two or three days work on the part of the boys to make a good stone wall which would keep the b nk from washing away Three or four loads of loam spre d over the bank and tamped with sods vould make 1 last ing improvement Even a tree or two could be planted as well as a rock garden If the project was once started I am sure we could de Dend upon the town's folks to help us ce ry it through After the e could be a more cooperative spirit between the student body and the town's folk What about it students, are you willing to give your time and effort toward a project? Don't you think lt Iould be worth n little effort to have one of the best cared for school grounds in the county? James Russell '45 rr r r AmafCfAfl0N We the students of Woodstock High School, are glad of this opportunity to express our appreoletion for the bane fits which were made possible by the 'ill of the late Lena Felt The new curtains in the mein room, the desks and seats in the commercial room end the fluorescent lights are 1ust a few of the new improvements m dr possible by her generosity Although we did not know her oersonnlly, we know that she as very much interested in the schools We will take good care of the new improvements and make good use of them Sam Redman '43 rv I' ' FN f . - ...
