EDITORIALS THE BUILDING COMMITTEE Mr. Moses C. Waterhouse, Chairman Dr. George W. Dainty Mr. William O. Eldridge Mr. John L. Gibbs Mr. James F. Peebles, Secretary We are happy to take this opportunity to say a few words in praise of the members of the Building Committee. After our high school was partially destroyed by fire on June 8, 1934, a Building Committee composed of the above members was appointed to take up the task of rebuilding the old structure and of adding to it. This new addition, including the gymnatorium, makes our school one of the finest in this section of the State. The result which represents hours, days, and even months of hard work by the Committee, without remuneration, is a source of pride to all our high school students. PEACE “Peace hath her victories no less renowned than war.” One of the most beautiful words in any language is peace. It has a connotation of happiness, prosperity, and brother- hood among men and nations. The chief avenue of peace is, of course, arbitration. While intelligent men occupy positions of prominence and import- ance in our governments, we have little to fear; but when we allow unscrupulous dictators to seize the power, anything can happen. For centuries a strong armed force has been considered the best assurance of peace. Vegetius’ “Que desiderat pacem praeparet bellum” was almost literally echoed by George Washington when he said “To be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace.” I doubt not the wisdom and sagacity of these gentlemen, but I do doubt that such a policy is practicable in the twentieth century. 6 CANAL CURRENTS We are sorely beset with grafting politicians and grasping business men who would gladly let slip the dogs of war to further their own selfish interests. One of the most powerful of lobbyists, one of the most sinister workers of evil, in fact Mephistopheles himself, is the omnipresent representative of the wealthy armament manu- facturers. In the recent Disarmament Conference at Geneva, a delegate from a leading power was one of the major stock- holders of the Vickers Armstrong Corporation, which is prob- ably the greatest manufacturer of instruments of war in Europe. The time has come in which to destroy these dema- gogues and Shylocks. While they exist, the very foundation of our civilization is insecure. They must be branded by the public opinion as the murderers they are, and the populace must be educated to the futility and uselessness of war. The universal adoption of this point of view is probably the only means by which war will ever be abolished. The distinctions between defence and aggression may be so easily confused, and the possession of a strong army and navy for defence makes national honor so ridiculously sensitive, that the country which arms for the sake of making others respect its invulnerability is a constant menace to the peace of the entire world. Reciprocal disarmament will not only never be practicable while this philosophy of national self-preserva- tion is rampant, but the resulting fear complex will promote the armament race ad infinitum. I firmly believe that the possession of peace is and should be within the power of every nation. In the Great War, Hol- land, Switzerland, and the Scandinavian countries success- fully maintained their neutrality. They preserved their tran- quility and in no way sacrificed honor or prestige therein. Let us follow their example. Mary Colbeth, ‘37. THE VALUE OF MUSIC Music is the art of making pleasing, expressive, and in- telligible combinations of tone, according to the laws of har- mony, melody, and rhythm. There are very few people who do not have music of any kind in their daily lives. They may play an instrument, sing, or have a radio or victrola. Those who are too busy to sit down to enjoy it may work with a soft background provided by the radio. Their tasks would seem twice as tiresome and CANAL CURRENTS 7 monotonous without the buoyancy of music. People who think it a crime to listen to good music without giving it one’s whole attention have not yet grasped the value of music as a background. We know the dreamy feeling that sometimes accompanies dancing. Try the same thing without music and the couples will soon be ready to drop. Therefore, the more of the dance spirit we can introduce into our daily lives, the further we shall be going towards eliminating the weari- ness of the grind. Music is a universal language, understood in all ages by all men. It has always been a source of joy. One quality music possesses which other arts do not is a warm, satisfy- ing friendliness. It has the power to drive men to war, to love, to God. Or it lays hands on troubled spirits to sooth and heal. Although people may not realize it themselves, they want music — music as it shall be had, in the home, a part of the daily life. They want to play, but are often kept back by a notion that to play a musical instrument one must have talent. As so well expressed by Robert Haven Shauffler, “It takes three to make music: — one to create, one to perform, and one to appreciate; and who can tell which is the most im- portant.” Virginia Handy, ’37. A DARK CLOUD Along the base of the mountain came a swift ever- gurgling brook. Above the mountain flew an old warrior, the eagle. Above the eagle, the blue of the sky shone softly through the soft mist that tried to camouflage it. Above all this, old man Sol was busy washing this scene in his soft warm glow of sunshine. Everything was peacefully quiet. Suddenly old Sol seemed to lose strength for his glow weakened, and glancing up one could see the fringe of a dark cloud covering a portion of the sun. Before many minutes had passed the sun was wholly covered. Everything was put into almost total darkness. The brook was silent, seeming afraid to raise its voice above a whisper. The eagle flew no more. All seemed dead for a moment; suddenly all was pitched into a den of noise; it seemed as if something had been dropped into the gears of Heaven’s own machinery. Light- ning darted its tongue in and out of the darkness. 8 CANAL CURRENTS It was a cloudburst, — the dark cloud, remember? Floods swept away people, homes, everything in its path. This wrecking of humanity we thought was terrible, dreadful. It was; but we cannot check it. It is an act of God. We thought of it and shuddered; still there was nothing we could do about it. Yesterday over Europe the sun was shining; the people, light-hearted; everything was rosy. The eagle of Commerce flew the air, the land was brightened with the glow of Peace and Contentment. Today over Europe the sun is covered with a dark cloud — possible war. If not checked it will wreck humanity beyond possible repair. Yesterday’s eagle of Commerce must be kept from darting in and out of the Darkness like lightning and put back in the sunshine of peace. We can check it. It is not an act of God! Oh, we often wish it were for we know it would not be so unmerciful, so destructive, as in the hands of grasping men. Anthony Tassinari, ’36. WHAT IS YOUR SCORE? Do we as students measure up to the standards of Citizen- ship? Here is a score card. Give yourself 10 points for each question to which you can truthfully answer “Yes.” 1. Trustworthiness — Do you keep your promises? 2. Self Control — Do you control your tongue and your . temper? 3. Loyalty — Are you loyal to home, your school, and your community? 4. Obedience — Do you obey your father, mother, and teachers promptly and cheerfully? 5. Sportsmanship — Can you win without bragging, and lose without offering excuses? 6. Courtesy — Are you considerate of others? 7. Health — Do you secure the proper amount of sleep, eat the right kind of food, and exercise sufficiently in open air? 8. Team work — Do you get along with other people? 9. Dependability — Can people count on you? 10. Self-reliance — Do you think for yourself? Reprint from “The Skipper” of Hyannis .

A PERFECT HOMESTEAD As the first few crimson and golden rays painted the horizon in the east, announcing an early sunrise, a peaceful and picturesque environment without a doubt would be noticed by a person standing on the precipice which over- hung this certain canyon. Near this precipice a stream of water fell in glistening splendor over the rocky canyon side down to the green valley below, continuing to the other side and disappearing through a narrow pass. A belt of pines surrounded the valley, continuing up the canyon side. From these tall, graceful trees came a refresh- ing scent and their gentle swaying brought forth entertain- ing music. Near the stream-bed, running through the center of the valley, rested a log cabin, whose fresh logs told of recent birth. From the chimney arose a lazy column of smoke, — the inhabitants were already up. Behind the cabin was an- other building, about twice as large, where the live stock were kept. To one side stood a long pile of wood cut in cord lengths and near it some split wood. On the other side of the narrow stream, gained by a small bridge, was a large tract of plowed land, with fresh-cut fur- rows as straight as a string. Here was pure cool water, green grass springing forth from fertile soil, a great abundance of wood, a possibility of gold being found in the surrounding land, beautiful scenery and plenty of fresh air. Who could ask for a better home site than nature’s grand open spaces? Grant Ellis, ’37. CANAL CURRENTS 15 THE LOG DRIVE I shall never forget my experience at a “log drive” sev- eral years ago in Maine. The preceding Fall the trees had been cut down, piled up, and taken to the river-side, to be carried down to the mill in the spring. It is a most thrilling adventure to be awakened very early on a spring morning and hear the bustle and noise of camp. The ice had melted but there was still a little snow on the ground. Men were busy everywhere, — some getting break- fast, others collecting what looked like long poles with big spikes in them. These I later learned were called “peebey- poles.” I noticed, too, that the men wore spiked shoes. This was to prevent them from slipping off the logs. It was a perfect day and as we walked through the woods I felt sorry that those fine, big trees had to be cut down. I was consoled by the thought, however, that new ones were growing all the time. Upon reaching the river, I was completely overwhelmed at the sight of the great number of logs bobbing in the river. There were so many logs one could hardly see the water. Men were running over the logs, shouting and keeping the logs from jamming by means of their peebey poles. They had to use dynamite when there was a jam. I was standing near the bank and the logs were packed to the shore. Now, there is nothing I like better than spruce gum and these happened to be spruce logs. I saw a lovely big log close to the shore and I thought I would see if there was any gum on it. I stepped on it and knelt down to get the gum. I was so busy that I didn’t notice the log was slow- ly moving away from the shore. Suddenly it rolled over and I rolled with it! I realized if I didn’t get out of that icy water soon I would be jammed as well as frozen. Holding tigh t to my log I called for help. One of the men near me heard me and came running. He got me safely out and put me on shore. It was a wonderful experience, watching the log drive, but for the remainder of my stay at camp I was content to stay on shore! Louise Barlow, ’37. 16 CANAL CURRENTS IN AN OLD FASHIONED GARDEN On a night all still and starry In a garden of the past There the flowers nodding gently Are the very, very last Of that throng that years before them Danced and shook their heads in glee, Merry, careless and light-hearted Yet, these seem as fair to me. Long ago I saw this garden When it was the joy and pride Of a tiny, fair-haired maiden In the cottage by its side. In the summer months tney blossomed. Tended by her loving care. In the winter months she waited Knowing they were sleeping there. In the summer they were brightest. As they were — so was she too. Bright and cheerful, gay and loving. Golden hair and eyes of blue. In the winter they had faded One by one to fall and die. And the maiden too lay near them Underneath the winter sky. For as Death, the Reaper, gathered them He took the maiden too. She, the fairest flower among them Lily-white and Violet-blue. Dorothy Ryan, ’38. TELEVISION Television, I believe, is the most promising and useful experiment of the age. The American people are apt to think Television is a thing not in use as yet and only in the experimental stage. However, although television is not yet perfected (nothing else is for that matter!) this assumption is entirely wrong. Television is today used in more than ten different depart- ments including the War Department. It possesses more than twenty-five regular broadcasting and experimental transmitting stations and has thousands of regular receivers. The mechanism of a television transmitter has three separate divisions: — first, the scanning disk which is the old- CANAL CURRENTS 17 est type of input, and corresponds to a microphone in sound. The scanning disk merely separates the picture into strips, one being transmitted after the other. Behind the scanning disk is a large bulb, either a photo-electric cell or a cathode- ray tube whose duty it is to turn the light pulsations seen through the scanning disk upon the image into electro-mag- netic current. This current in turn passes through an audio- frequency amplifier, usually stepping it up about fifty times. Then this low frequency current passes into the third and last stage, a radio frequency amplifier, an exciter, and then into an oscillator, and out to the antenna. The first stage composed of the scanning disk which is continually rotating and the photo-electric cell must be built with utmost precision or else the image will be received dis- torted due to the deflection of light rays. Of course there is also another transmitter on a slightly different wave length which accompanies the television with sound or voice trans- mission. As for the television receiver, first and mainly there is a two-channel short-wave receiver, — one channel receiving voice and connected to the loudspeaker while the other chan- nel is connected to a cathode ray bulb and a lens to magnify the image. There is nothing really complicated in the oper- ation of the receiver; in fact, it operates precisely the same as your home broadcast set except there are two tuning con- trols instead of one. Within ten years’ time television receivers will be as com- mon as broadcast receivers are now, if not more so. It’s a big field of science and here there is opportunity for thous- ands of research workers and experimenters. Lloyd Hendrick, ’37. IF Just think how much the small word ‘flf” Can mean to us each day — We use it — oh! so many times In things we think and say. It’s “If I could,” and “If I might,” We sometimes even boast! If all your “ifs” could come quite true Which one would you like most? Priscilla Davis, ’38. 18 CANAL CURRENTS THE BOK SINGING TOWER Like a great symphony in stone the Bok Singing Tower rises out of the soil of Central Florida on Mountain Lake. Tradition claims that Iron Mountain, on whose summit the Singing Tower stands, was once a sanctuary for the Indians of Central Florida. After the winter vigil of Dark Moon with its ceremonial wailing at Lake Wailes, the tribes worshiped here the rising sun of each new spring. As we look at the Tower from a distance we perceive an awe-inspiring shaft of pink Etowah and grey Creole marble that seems the soul of majestic tranquility and strength. In the pool of the Glade the tower is reflected in ever- changing shades of color. The soft blue of the sky, the scur- rying clouds, the rose and green of the trees and flowers, and the myriad of light and dark shadows blend to form a glimpse of paradise. The mirror-like surface of the pool is broken only by an occasional bird landing in the water or taking its daily bath. The sanctuary is located three hundred and twenty-four feet above sea level, and is on the highest point of land in Florida. Fourteen lakes are visible from the sunset plateau and thirty-six can be seen from the top of the tower. A sun- rise service to which all visitors are invited is held each Easter morning in the Sanctuary. The great North Door depicts in yellow brass the six days of creation. The sundial carved on the southern side of the tower indicates the latitude and longitude of Iron Mountain. The table at the base of the dial gives the difference between sun and clock time in this latitude for each day. All the interior designs and carvings in tile and bronze depict an allegory of sanctuary life and planting. Besides the bell-chamber the tower contains two copper-steel tanks with a capacity of th irty thousand gallons of water used for watering the sanctuary. The Tower rises from its square base fifty-one feet wide to the majestic height of two hun- dred and five feet. The stained glass window of the upper chambers is a model of color and splendor; the uppermost section is the largest and most beautiful; the next is smaller, but more in- tricate; and the smallest is a fancy grill-work design over a small balcony. The sanctuary bells compose one of the largest carillons yet cast. There are seventy-one bells which cover a range of four and one-half octaves. The best effects of the carillon are obtained at a position about two hundred yards from the CANAL CURRENTS 19 Tower — the side depending, of course, on the direction of the wind. Anton Bree, Bellmaster, is recognized as the master Carilloneur of the world. The limited description that I have attempted to give does not begin to show truly this marvel created by man and nature. To appreciate the true significance of this wonderful sanctuary, one must visit it. Loring Huntley, ’36. PAPER Paper is one of the most important necessities of our daily life. We use it for newspapers, books, as a covering for all kinds of articles, and for writing material. If it were not for paper there would be little knowledge of science or history for the ordinary person, no ready means of getting an edu- cation or keeping up with world events. These are only a few of the many ways in which paper affects us and the world we live in. Paper was first used by the Egyptians. True, the paper they used was only river weeds flattened and glued together. This early paper was very crude and was called papyrus, from which the name paper was derived. The Chinese are also known to have used it at an early date, although their paper was of a much better grade. Much later the Arabs learned how to make it, and it was introduced into Europe in the twelfth century. The first paper mill was erected in Germany in 1336. Soon after, the Netherlands began producing paper, which was the best for many years. In 1588 a German, Spielman, obtained a special permit from Queen Elizabeth to manufac- ture England’s paper. An English mill, erected in 1675, still makes paper today. Paper mills were also established in the United States in the early part of the eighteenth century. All paper was hand made prior to 1800, when a Frenchman, named Francois Didot, invented the first machine for the manufacture of it. Paper making is a major industry in the United States and Canada. The materials used are usually wood pulp, rags, waste paper, and sulphur. The sulphur is in the form of a solution and is used to separate the cellulose from the wood in order to form wood pulp. The two main methods of mak- ing paper are the rag and wood pulp methods. They are very complicated and require a lot of machinery. One could read much more about the history behind the making of paper. It is interesting to And out how much romance there is behind every ordinary article, even such a one as paper. John Bourne, ’37. 20 CANAL CURRENTS SUNDOWN In the west the sun was slowly disappearing beyond the horizon . In the sky the clouds were aflame with the rays of the huge ball of Are, showing colors that would put an artist to shame. As the shadows fell, the noise and the bustle of the city turned into a strange quietness as practically all commerce came to an end. In the far-off country the chirping and singing of the joyful and carefree birds came to a hush. In the low and sturdy white farmhouses lamps were lit and their soft, yellow glow could be seen out of the crystal clear windows. Through the stillness of the fast-growing darkness, one could hear the soft tinkling of bells as the cows were being led home to their barns. In a short space of time all traces of the sun had disap- peared and through the inky blackness of the sky stars be- gan to twinkle to signify that another perfect day had come to an end. Walter Young, ’37. THE ANCESTOR I RESEMBLE They’re always making A scrap bag out of me. First it’s Grandp a’s nose. Then Grandma’s knee. Aunty Beth just loves my lips They’re so like Grandma Thom’s But, Aunty Lou, she loves my hips ’Cause they’re just like my Mom’s. Uncle Ned will go in raptures Over eyes of Aunty’s blue They seem to join a league against me Mother’s in it, too. They tell me who I resemble From my head down to my toes. ’Til I think I’m just a patchwork quilt. Maybe I am, who knows? But Dad’s the only sensible one In the whole “caboodle”. He says, “Never you mind. Honey. All that matters is your ‘noodle’.” Dorothy Ryan CANAL CURRENTS 21 RIVERS How similar a river is to a human being! It begins its life as a tiny trickle high up in the mountains and, like an infant is at its birth, small and weak. As it grows it becomes stronger and resembles a child who has just learned to play. A mountain stream has always fascinated me. It winds and twists among giant boulders forming little pools and cas- cades. Where it is going it does not seem to know or even less to care. The mountain stream later becomes a youth, — strong, adventurous, and carefree. As it becomes larger it must leave its play and go to work at driving the wheels of industry and generating electricity to light the homes of people hundreds of miles away. The river is a willing servant but sometimes it becomes angry and breaks loose from its confinement causing great loss of life and property. Finally, after many experiences, the river comes out up- on the lowlands and is content to lead a life of ease, like an old man who has worked hard and has earned his just re- ward. This river is broad and deep and carries upon its back the commerce of the great cities. Finally the river comes to its end and is lost in the sea. It has come many hundreds of miles and has seen many things. What a wonderful story it could tell if it could only speak. Burgess Brownson, ’36. ONE MINUTE A minute is but a snap of the finger; yet it may contain an eternity. When we look back at the days and years we have rushed through, or try to recall a minute of last night’s sleep, we are amazed. Time passes so quickly. But there are times when the minute apparently halts its mad flight and remains inert for a seeming eternity. Im- agine, for instance, what must take place in the minute be- fore we draw our last breath in this world. It has been said that in that minute many people relive every moment since their birth. Then again we all know how in the classroom, before our turn to recite what we haven’t done, the minutes threaten us with their seeming endlessness! This, to me, is the miracle of the minute as of time it- self. It is a set unit only as we set it. 22 CANAL CURRENTS Years ago, and not so many either, people traveled by horse and by way of water at an average of around five miles an hour which is equal to a distance of four hundred and forty feet in one minute. Today we have multiplied this four hun- dred and forty feet to thirty-five thousand nine hundred and eighty-two feet in one minute. This means that today we can travel eighty times farther in a minute than could our great-grandfather. Here we see that man is the one con- trolling factor in determining what a minute shall contain. In other fields, in practically all of the sciences, we find the minute expanding in content — the physician working to- wards the goal of eternal life, and the physicist striving to make more and more sensations possible in this expanded or extra time. Perhaps, just perhaps, life everlasting is not beyond the grave but, it may be that it lies within our own thought realm. David Ingerson, ’36. The new building has been completed and is a great im- provement over the old one. The lockers please the students very much. Now they don’t have to worry about their coats being taken by mistake. The laboratory is a wonderful room equipped with many useful things that were missing in the old one. The flowers grown by Mr. Stahura give the laboratory a charming touch. The auditorium is one of the best on the Cape. Just to test its strength there was a donkey basketball game between the teachers and the Kiwanians recently! The students find the lunch room a great improvement over the old one. A dance was given by the Seniors with great success in December. It was called “The Senior Jubilee.” On April third the Juniors put on a “Miami” party which was very successful. The Seniors are planning to present the Senior play, “The Ghost Train”, on June 4. The Sophomores gave the Freshmen a royal welcome at a party in February. The Junior Prom will be on June 12 this year. The Bacchanalians from Northeastern University will furnish the music. The several assemblies held in our new auditorium this year have been very successful, and very enjoyable. The two outstanding ones were those held when Dr. Samuel Grafflin of New York spoke on the “Five Keys to Success,” and Mr. Burton Davis of Boston spoke on “The Romance of Ice.” 24 CANAL CURRENTS There are several P. G’s. this year. They came back to enjoy the new building, I guess! Edward A. Sanford, Jr., who was graduated from the Bourne High School in 1933, and who at the present time is a middler in the College of Business Administration at Northeastern University, has been named on the Dean’s list of Honor Students for the second marking period of the year. Mr. Sanford has been a consistent high honor man. having been named on the Dean’s list on eight pervious mark- ing periods since entering Northeastern. In his freshman year he worked for the “News”, the weekly publication of the University, and in his second year was on the Fraternity Basketball team, and again worked for the “News”. This year he has been elected to the position of Managing Editor of the “News”. ‘‘A WORD TO OUR READERS’’ We count that investment most profitable which pays us in dividends of friendship.

A. meeting there were six new cheer leaders elected: — Margaret Fisher, ’36 Virginia Berry, ’37 Mary Vancini, ’37 Marion Avery, ’38 Dorothy Ryan, ’38 Dorothy Hurley, ’39 Mr. Peebles and Mr. Coady suggested new suits for them. In a week’s time these were ready. These consisted of purple corduroy skirts and white woolen sweaters with a cheer- leader’s monogram. Candy was sold to pay for them. New songs and cheers were composed and actions put to them by the cheerleaders. The favorite song seemed to be: You’ve got to be a football hero To get along with the Bourne High Girls You’ve got to be a touchdown getter. Oh My! If with the girls yon want to get by. So give a Rah! Rah! Rah! for Bourne High Our teams will never admit defeat. But before the end of Bourne High’s season We’ll have the other Cape teams at our feet. Virginia Berry, ’37.

FOOTBALL The football team had a good season, winning three of its seven games, tying two, and losing two. Coach Demers worked hard during his practice sessions to fill the vacancies caused by the graduation of five veterans. This was done in a very capable manner as Bourne looked very promising in its first game, winning 6-0 over Provincetown. Bourne went on fighting hard the rest of the season and ended with a very presentable record. Gallerani and Smith were outstand- ing linemen, both being selected for the mythical Cape eleven. Tucker and Regassio played well in the backfield. Lineup LE— J. Smith LT— L. Huntley LG — G. Nightingale C — E. Cunningham RG— C. Handy RT — D. Gallerani RE — A. Tassinari Q — B. Bobba LHB — A.
