The next edition will be published in January, 1930, by a new Board. The board, elected by the school, in the early weeks of the next school year, will be under the supervision of a new editor-in-chief, who will prob- ably be either one of the present class editors or the assistant editor, aided and coached, as we all know, by the ever-ready and never-failing hand of Mr. Andrews. We wish to thank the advertisers who have helped to make, not only these two editions, but all previous issues a hnancial success, and we sure- ly hope that they will continue to sup- port this magazine by advertising next fall. XYC thank the alumni for the readiness with which they have bought the CORONA, and for the help they have given us in making the Alumni Col- umn a column for the alumni. Vl'e are grateful to the members of the student body, not only for their helpful assistance as salesmen, which of course leads to a greater financial suc- cess, but also for lending their talent to the Literary Department of the paper. lYe extend thanks to those of you who have willingly offered your skill in penmanship, that is, by rewrit- ing some corrected story or article. lYe have been quick to recognize your ability as a penman, even though you were not a successful author or sales- man. THE CORONA 9 GRADUATION Another Senior class has reached maturity, another group of R. li. S. students are starting out on life's long and weary path with the hope of suc- cess-success that will make them a credit to this school. That long- looked-for day, that day of days of their school career, has come at last. XVhile the Seniors rejoice at the happy thought of having successfully com- pleted their four years of hard mental labor, there is mingled with that joy a feeling of regret. Although no one sees a reason for regret while looking forward to that day, when the day ac- tually arrives it brings to mind the fact that with that happy graduation comes the end of many pleasant associations -the daily contact with teachers and schoolmaster, with school books, which to some are most dear, the happy get-togethers and assemblies, school sports and activities. Perhaps there are those who have been more than friends, who must part and leave each other forever. VVith that parting comes the realization that new friends and acquaintances will be made-yet friends and acquaintances that will never quite fill the places of the old ones at B. S. Even though the school life has at times seemed monot- onous and dull, after all there are woven into our memories many never- to-be-forgotten events. From our Freshman Reception to our Senior Banquet, life has been an endless hur- ly-burly of F-U-N, mingled with work, 'tis true, but none the less happy. For- tunate indeed are those who can con- tinue their school pranks for a few more years in college life. A WORD OF ADVICE From our lofty positions, we Seniors can look down, with a wisdom born of four years' experience, upon you underclassmen who in your turn are laboring up the heights of knowledge. To show our altruistic tendencies, we Seniors, in departing from B. H. S., wish to bestow a few gems of advice. XVe cannot overestimate the impor- tance of wisely choosing your courses. Many a Senior has found to his sor- row that he is unable to enter college because he has not taken the required courses. Begin, even in your Fresh- man year, to look beyond your high school days. A little foresight in time may save years of regret. In preparing for the future, consider, along with the scholastic side, the va- ried phases of school activities. In col- lege, you will find the athletic or social development a great asset. Consider the possibilities, right here in our high school, for development along these lines. Be eager to take part in ath- letics, support all class functions, con- tribute to your school paper, show willingness to participate in the chapel exercises. Remember that a dual bene- fit is received: you are helping to maintain the standards of your school, and you are rounding out your own character. Juniors-the heaviest responsibility now is yours-to set an example that may be admired and followed by the other classes. Sophomores and Freshmen-today is the time to lay a strong foundation for tomorrow. This advice is given in a spirit of helpful interest, and with the hope that you may proiit by our mistakes. 0112155 nf 1929 VVI1.1:UR Usuoon AREY Baker li1'idgtf'm Age, I8 College Preparatory Football 18, ljg Baseball 13, U3 Class Play 4-ljg junior lixbibitimig Class President Cl, 2, 3, -H3 Cap aiu of Baseball CJJQ President Varsty Club H95 President Athletic Association ffljg President Hi-Y Club Ciijg Address to Uuiler- giaduates.

No longer is she held down by custom and tradition. It a woman wishes to climb poles and be a telephone lineman, she does it. If she wishes to be a blacksmith, a stevedore, or an engineer, she becomes one. The woman ot today has just as long and just as varied a list of possible vocations as has the man of today. And why shouldn't she? livery new position that a woman has tried to hll, she has not only lilled successfully, but has, in many cases, excelled in it. Often she surpasses men in a tield new to hern-olddto them. ln nineteen hundred and twenty, only thirty of the gainful occupations tested in the U. S. Census had not been tried by women. That small number decreases every day. VVe have women aviatrix. Perhaps no one of them has accomplished a ,jfffff ' f feat comparable to Lindbergh'sg yet. neither has any man. The exploit of Amelia liarhart comes nearest to that of Lindy, NVe must expect women to take time for catching up with men for they have been in the tield only a comparatively short time. Une ot the strangest and most clifli- cult occupations, one that requires a nerve of steel, is deep sea diving for the purpose of salvaging ships. Yet one little woman, less than five feet tall. does that. That woman is Mrs. Mar- garet Campbell Goodman of Brooklyn, New York. She is very successful in her work, having salvaged one ship which was thought an utter loss. Five men had tried to salvage this ship be- fore she attempted it, and all had lost their lives. ln many states of the Union we now tind women steeplejacks. ln this work they are required to climb, or be hoisted, to the tallest buildings and churches, there to ply their art. This THE CORONA 19 calls for steady hands, and remarkable poise in the face of danger. For many years past, women, in the west, have been successfully operating huge farms. Running a farm, running it so that it will be profitable, is no easy job. It requires ability to handle serious questions with never-failing good judgment. The farm life so ap- peals to some women that recently a prominent singer announced her in- tention of leaving the stage to buy a farm. A farm-with which to fulfill her lifelong dream. There are too, women fire fighters, keen women lawyers, taxi drivers, gov- ernors, politicians, ministers, college professors, lecturers, traveling sales- men and architects. Always we have had remarkable nurses, but not until the last thirty years have we had prominent women surgeons. However, the number of women practising surgery increases all the time. Soon there will be a woman physician in every town. Professional wrestling has long been considered a realm for men only, but not so, the women are eagerly taking up this form of recreation. Boxing too, appeals to many of them. VVomen in fact have done almost everything and what they haven't done they will do in the near future. They will advance until some day a woman will earn the highest honor accorded in our country. Some day there will be a woman president of these United States. VIOLET E. GRAHAM. HONOR ESSAY T CHILD LABOR Few people had realized the condi- tion and number of working children in this country until the Child Labor Committee of the United States Gov- ernment, organized in 1901, had pub- lished statistics concerning the Child Laborers. It was found that employment of children originated when employers wanted to secure labor at the lowest possible cost regardless of the welfare of the child. After this, various other excuses were found for the child to work. Lazy and selfish parents, giving poverty for the reason, sent their chil- dren to work, to be free of their sup- port. Parents, who were ignorant of the benefits derived from schools, al- lowed the boys and girls, who disliked school, to leave as soon as they could, to seek employment. Wlhatever the reasons might have been, there are at present in this country, about two million children under sixteen years of age that are em- ployed in various ways. The greater part of these probably think that they are engaged in a healthful occupation and can, in no way, harm themselves, but often the work on farms or out-of-doors. People working conditions are much worse in this occupation than those in factories. The child who works, leaves school when he most needs to stay, he grows up ignorant: he finds it hard to get a decent position: and he has almost no chance of advancing. Children work- ing steadily with hardly any fresh air or recreation become dull, inactive, and inefficient. Older and more experienced people are thrown out of the positions which they should fill, thus increasing unem- ployment. The competition with older workers has lowered wages, and prof- its, in the long run, are less, for the child cannot, of course, do the work as satisfactorily as'the adult. His absence from the home tends to break up family life and he, being at the learning age, is liable to acquire all kinds of vice immorality by thus mingling with the class of people which is likely to be found in such places. 20 THE CORONA The poor and unsanitary conditions under which these unfortunate chil- dren work, weakens them and cause the premature death of a great many. Through the efforts of the Child Labor Committee and the Children's Bureau of the National Department of Labor, which are always making in- vestigations and publishing informa- tion in regard to the Child Labor question, the people of this country are recognizing the great danger and are doing their best to prevent it. All of the states have taken steps to prohibit Child Labor. Some states have passed laws which compel chil- dren to go to school until they are fourteeng others prohibit night work in mines and quarries for all under eighteen: while in others, children be- tween the ages of fourteen and sixteen may work, if the family is in need, as long as they go to school a certain number of hours each week. Unfor- tunately these laivs are not strictly enforced. ln our own state the Child Labor Laws are made to fit the compulsory education laws. No children under fourteen years of age are allowed to work in any manufacturing establish- ment: those under fifteen cannot work at any business during the time the schools are in session: those between fifteen and sixteen cannot be employed during the school session, unless thev have completed the sixth grade. XVork permits must be issued by the Super- intendent of Schools before any child under sixteen can work at anv time. The State Commissioner of Labor and lndustry has charge of the enforce- ment of these Child Labor laws. As Child Labor has been proven harmful. not only to the child, but also to industry and society as well, all that is possible must be done to pre- vent it. No one advocates that a child should never do any work. That would be as harmful as the other extreme of too much work. It is the exposure of chil- dren to the long hours and unhealthful conditions of factories, shops and mines and the loss of opportunity for their education which has caused our states and our national government to take the firm stand that it has against the evils of Child Labor. W1Ls1E P. HARMON, ,29. VALEDICTORY PROTECTION FOR NVORKERS Everyone realizes that labor is the most important factor in industry. It is absolutely necessary that we have a sufficiently large and sufficiently intel- ligent labor force to protect the welfare of our country. The workers con- tribute their energy and their lives to industry. In return for these, the workers should be granted special protection. Good health is one of the most bene- ficial properties that a worker can pos- sess. The employers now realize that the health of their workers is as im- portant to them as to the workers themselves. A person who does not feel well cannot do his share of the work satisfactorily and has a bad in- Huence on those working beside him. On the other hand, a healthy person who works in a clean and sunny room does not need to be driven, nor does he watch the clock. At the present time. the health of the workers is protected by wholesome working conditions. The modern fac- tory is well ventilated and contains,a SlIH'lClCl1t number of windows to pro- tect the eyesight of those working in it. l'ure drinking water is also fur- nished to the workers under the most sanitary conditions. Some employers, in whose workshops the lungs of their employees might be filled with lint or THE CORONA 21 poisonous gases, have taken means to free the air of such impurities. A tax high enough to discourage production has been put on phosphorus matches, since their production caused a hor- rible bone disease. Industries in which diseases are caused by lead, mercury, brass, or arsenic poisoning are being prohibited. Modern industry also looks after the safety of its employees. Several states have passed employers' liability laws which hold employers responsible for accidents resulting from failure to pro- vide safe working conditions. All dan- gerous machinery must be equipped with safety appliances. Fire escapes, au- tomatic Hre sprinklers, and frequent tire drills are usually required in large factories. In other factories, where in- jury to the eyes might be caused by flying particles, workmen are required to wear protecting glasses. Employees are now strictly forbidden to wear clothing that would be easily caught in moving parts of machinery. The miners use safety lamps and insist on proper mining conditions but, never- theless, many lives are lost each year by insufficient pillarage support. Rail- ways now use steel and concrete cars supplied with safety brakes. Since some accidents are bound to occur, all large concerns provide a well-equipped hos- pital to care for the injured and sick among their employees. Safety first movements have been started in which placards bearing the words safety first are posted in conspicuous places. These movements have saved manv lives and have prevented many acci- dents by constantly reminding the workers of some danger. These improvements have been brought about largely through the efforts of labor unions. Formerly, a worker had to accept whatever terms his emplover offered rather than not work at all. The workers soon found, however, that they could accomplish nothing when standing alone, and as a result they began to act in groups. These labor organizations soon be- came powerful weapons in the hands of the workmen. They not only de- manded but received shorter working days and an increase in wages. Both of these changes were very important, the first gave the workers time for recreation, and the second enabled them to enjoy some of the luxuries of life. To prevent such competition as would tend to keep wages down, labor unions oppose child labor and desire restriction of immigration. Besides, they claim the right to limit the num- ber of apprentices to trades, and some- times even oppose trade schools. Such a policy needs to be pursued with great caution, lest it ruin the social value of industry even in the immediate future, and cause a harmful reaction against the whole union movement. Every year, tens of thousands of American workers are killed while they are at work, and at least a half- million of employees are injured seri- ously. Realizing that these accidents were the cause of much bitterness and unrest in the working classes and that the whole burden fell upon the work- men and their families, practically all the states have passed workmen's compensation laws. Although these laws vary in the different states, they usually provide that employers must pay their workers who are injured while at work, 5096 of their daily wages for a period of time fixed by a state board. In case of death by acci- dent, the widow of the worker receives an amount of money equal to three years' wages. In several states, where the employer is required to insure against accidents and sickness, the payments are made by the insurance company which is usually a bureau of the state government. In addition to workmenls compen- 22 THEC ORONA sation laws, many states support agen- cies to aid labor. It is now possible for industrial cripples to go to suitable schools and learn occupations for which their injury does not disqualify them. Public employment bureaus, which are now maintained by many states and cities, secure jobs for unemployed men free of charge. These bureaus have special advantages in learning ol demands for Workers in different places, so that a Worker who is willing to move does not need to remain in a city Where Work is scarce. Very little has been done to protect the workmen from poverty due to sick- ness or old age, although in some fac- tories employees are given a pension as a reward for long, faithful service. In these respects, the United States lags far behind such European coun- tries as Great Britain, Germany, and France. To safeguard the priceless human element in industry, We must have co- operation from every interested party. ln recent years, the employers and em- ployees have come to realize that only as they pull together can the best in- terests of both be served, that team- work is as necessary for success in industry as it is in athletics.

' 3'fr3'NV'YH ?fW NV 'XV' ' y The gil-Fligh-TQ Bins EDITED BY THE SECRETARY Through the kindness of the CORONA Staff our club has been permitted to use a page of this issue for our notes and also an introduction of the club to the readers of this school paper. Perhaps many of the citizens of the town who hear of Hi-Y think that it is the name given to a group of high school boys organized as a secret club or fraternity. This is not true how- ever, for our organization has nothing secret about itg if we had, the club would not be recognized at headquar- ters. VVe are merely a group of about twenty-tive boys who have taken the following oath that gives one a good idea of our work. The oath is, To help, create, extend, and maintain throughout the school and community higher standards of Christian livingf' VVe are a branch of the Portland Y. M. C. A., there being Hi-Y clubs in all parts of the world. Three important objectives of these clubs are to help all members develop themselves phys- ically, mentally, and morally. Our emblem, the triangle and cross, is similar to the standard Y. M. C. A. emblem and has a similar meaning. These pins are worn only by members and their girl friends, who have taken the above oath. Though our club has not done a great deal to bring it to the front in our community we hope to im- prove next year. During this winter we have had fif- teen meetings and four outside speak- ers, who have given us valuable talks that were interesting and helpful. Our program this winter has had its recrea- tion period after each meeting during which checkers, boxing, wrestling, bas- ketball, and the like have been prac- ticed under the leadership of Mr. Holland and Mr. Knight. Delegates at different times have attended confer- ences at Portland, and, as we go to press, the club, as a whole, plans to visit the County Y. at Portland for a meeting with the Deering Hi-Y. Twelve new members have been inducted into the club, and they seem very interested in the meetings. Though a few graduate from school this year we hope that many of the ninth-grade boys will want to join us in the fall when they There's a fellow who's doing his best, become Freshmen. At our annual business meeting last fall the following ofticers were chosen: President, Nath- aniel Cobb, Vice-President, Enoch Cookg and Secretary and Treasurer, Robert Dingley. One of the members wrote a short poem for our page and it seems very appropriate for our club paper. WHY SHOULDN'T THAT FELLOW BE YOU? There's a fellow who plays the game square, A fellow whose friendship is true, . A fellow whose smile may be seen anywhere- Why shouldn't that fellow be you? A fellow they say is true-blue, A fellow who conquers whatever the test- Why shouldn't that fellow be you? I'll show them that I can succeed, I'll finish the task through and through, Says the fellow who's honest in word and deed, Why shouldn't that fellow be you? ALBERT LIBBY, '29, oUR JESTER Mr. Knight: HI do not know a pro- noun from a verb. Schiavi: f'There is one point where we agree. X S :Sl se N5 A VS lf - W f f , s arf? M f 'ig A BASKETBALL The results of this year's basketball season were very good considering the lack of experienced players. Dodge was the only veteran although several of the players had played for a few periods in the games of the previous season. Since Dodge and Crosby are the only players to graduate. the out- look is promising for the 151230 bas- ketball season. The second game with South Paris and the second game with Kennett were the best of the season. ln the game with South Paris after being held to three points during the first twenty-seven minutes of play, Bridgton ran wild and scored fourteen points in the last hve minutes, to de- feat South Paris, li-Ili, in one of the fastest and most exciting finishes ever played on the local court. Leading ll- 3 after the first few minutes of the last quarter, South Paris seemed to be well on the way for an easy victory .. 945243 T l L4-QT when Bridgton made its great rally to win by only one point. In the game with Kennett, Bridgton overcame Kennett's rally in the third quarter and finally won. At the half the score was l72-0, in favor of Bridg- ton. Then Kennett made eight points and when the third quarter ended, Bridgton was leading, 18-8. Then the Kennett boys broke loose and after a few minutes of rapid shooting, tied the score at 20 all.

Une game with Porter High was forfeited by Bridgton owing to a disagreement over games resulted in much excitement for the fans, but Bridgton managed to win all the close ones except the game with Kennett at Bridgton which was lost by one basket. ln the final game of the season, Bridgton led Kennett at half- time but was unable to keep up the terrific pace set by Captain Brock and her teammates. Helen Fessenden, Thelma Embich and Iva Barker graduate this year. llelen was the main scoring ace of the Bridgton outfit annexing 195 points during the season. Her foul shooting won several games and excited much favorable comment when playing out of town. Thelma has been a regular guard for two seasons and altho light was one of the fastest players on the team. Her passing and general Floor work on the offense were notable. Iva has played a consistent game at jump- ing center for three years and got the tap on most of her opponents. Edith Russell, guard, Ruth llleserve, jumping center, and Hermonine March, side center, are the nucleus of next year's team. Frances lVebb, Carrie Batchellor and Frances Walker got in for quite a few periods this season and should be heard from another year. lf Captain French is permitted to play next season she can hold down one of the forward berths easily or can play her regular position at guard.

SOPHOMORE NOTES The Sophomores on the A list at the end of the winter term were: Ar- thur Otis, Enoch Cook, and Phyllis Marshall. Those who received A and BU in all subjects were: Rosie Gallinari, Hermonine March, Richard Thompson, Frances XYebb, XVilma Wvman, Donald O,Brien, and Edith Russell.

At a similar meeting of the girls who made their letters in basketball, Her- monine March was elected Captain of the 1930 team, and Edith Russell, Manager.
