MAGAZINE CAMPAIGN The magazine campaign got under- way on Oct. 29, with Bert Wright as general manager and Connie Anderson and Sandra Belyea assistants. During the next ten day's through canvassing from house to house, S1,ZO2. 34 was obtained. Those bringing in the greatest amounts were Connie Ander- son, S1 16.00, Ray Wakefield, S71.00, and Edna Rand S5l.O0. Mr. Partridge's home room was the winner of the room competition. The school realized a profit of 55440. with subscription pro- ceeds the school bought a Bell-Howells movie projector and score board for player's names. OUR 1953 YEARBOOK The publication of our school year- book presents a greater problem than most people realize. It is a costly pro- ject and must be financed almost en- tirely by the advertisers. For some years we have used the service of vari- ous Maine publishers whose work has been satisfactory but increasingly ex- pensive. This year we adopted a new plan which is used by many high schools throughout the country. We have a con- tract for the publication of our year- book with the American Yearbook Com- pany of Owatonna, Minnesota. This company specializes in the publication of high school and college yearbooks. It furnishes much helpful material to aid in assembling and preparing the dummy. A representative of the com- pany has visited us twice and his serv- ices as consultant are always available. As a result of this extra service, we have learned a great deal about the technicalities of yearbook production and feel that we are able to offer you an improved book. J. Prue MUSIC PROGRAM We have been greatly pleased with the progress of the music program ad- ded to the curriculum at beginning of the School year. Under the direction of Mr. Dom- minic DiFranco a band and girls' glee club was formed. Both organizations have pursued a well planned schedule and have attained mastery of their instruments, ability to read music as well as an appreciation of vocal and instrumental music. Six members of the Cvlee Club have been members of the All Aroostook Chorus which has given concerts in Presque Isle and Houlton. We feel that the A.C.H.S. music program has made a fine beginning and that it is an essential and cultural fact- or in our school life.

YOUTH FACES THE WORLD Class of 1953 the world lies at your feet. It is up to you to choose the fields, green or brown, in which you will live. It is up to you to pursue lifes rocky road alone. I hope that your experiences at the Ashland Comnnunity High School will help each of you to pass each of the many obstacales which you will encoun- ter along this road. Many of you will not continue your quest of knowledge, but will seek a place in life that is sat- isfying to you. Others of you have high- er aspirations and will go on to greater triumphs. Your outlook on life has much to do with your ultimate happiness, success or failure. Have courage, face facts and be realistic in this outlook on life. Remember that success does not come knocking at one's door. One must seek out success. Success is the achievement of happiness. In order to achieve happiness one must have a pur- pose in life. Find this purpose. Your purpose will be governed by your am- bition, and how easily this ambition is satisfied. Never falter for a moment along the road of life. Always seek greener pastures until you are sure you have found your purpose in life. In going out into the world you must accept the privileges and duties thrust upon you by the democratic society in which you live. You must serve this society as public officials and as social workers. Serve it well, honestly and intelligently. Have compassion upon your fellowmen and always be the good neighbor. Class of 1953 you have left your mark upon the Ashland Community High School. Many of your members have compiled outstanding records in aca- demic subjects, athletics, dramatics and other school activities. Let me see you leave a Comparable record upon the world in which you will reside. Wayne S. Porter Principal 4
