Hodge Post No. '71, an editor, an author, a musician, and a friend to young people, we print his favorite poem which gave him courage during nTimes that Tried lEen's Souls -. KCivil War Daysb. We quote him? own words which appeared in the Boston Post Feb. 16, 1957. 'It seemed like a message to me. As quick as thought could travel the thcught came to me, Ulf my time hasn't come I'm not going to lie here and die, and from that moment wdth a desire to live, I improved.U N ENDURANCE How much the heart may bear, and yet not break! How much the flesh may suffer, and not die! I question much if any pain or ache Of soul or body brings our end more nigh: ' Ieath choses his own time: till that is sworn, All evils may be borne. we see a sorrow rising in our way, And try to flee from the approaching ill: Wk seek some small escapeg'we weep and pray: But when the blow falls, then our hearts are still Not that the pain is of its charpness shorn, But that it can be borne. WE wind our life Qbnut another life: ' We hold it closer, dearer than our own: Anon it faints and fails in deathly strife, Leaving us stunned, and stricken, and alone: But ah: we did not die with those we mourn,--- This also can be borne. Behold, we live through all things--famine, thirst, Bereavement, pain: all grief and misery, All woe and sorrow: life On soul and body-but Though we be sick, and ti Lo, all things can be inflicts its Worst, we cannot die.'

Imagine how you would feel if you could never hear any music again during your lifetime. Even little babies know and appreciate music. Some long remembered songs have been composed by mothers singing lullabies to their children. Think of all the songs that are composed by nature, especially the songs of the birds the song of the wind, and the babbling of little brooks. As soon as children are old enough to talk, they learn to sing---some from the radio and some from their older bro- thers and sisters, Then when they are ready for school, they know something about music. From the first grade on they are taught music, dancing, and instrument playing from a special teacher, hired by the school board for this special work. Even the teachers have been brought up from children to appreciate music and have chosen for their life work. Soon the children enter high school. Here they are taught to appreciate music even more, if possible. There are the orchestra, operettas, glee club, and several things to help student to learn to love music. This may even be an in- spiration for them to take music for their life work. First, in the list of training to me comes the orches- tra. The three main things the orchestra teaches are disci- pline, mental training, and artistic values. All of these help us with our school work, our outside life, and the life that is before us. After these things are once learned, they are never forgotten. Let me explain briefly these principles I have just mentioned. Under the main principles of the orchestra are various steps. First, there is teamwork, for no undertaking, great or small, can be a success unless the participants can and will work together. Another step is courtesy. How much this means to the conducter cannot be fully expressed. An- other great step is responsibility, which helps us not only on the orchestra, but also in school work and in outside life. Concentration comes as another step. What does this mean to an orchestra? If the members weren't always concen- trating on the selections they are playing, the selection would be worse than if not played at all. Uur high school orchestra is new a ycrr old, but in this short time, we have realized, during our participation at rehearsals and in en- tertainments---the value of these great principles.How could the world get along without music? What a dreary, empty world it would be! Some of the artists of music would never have been discovered if there had not been music in schools. To-day we have discovered as never before the need for music in schools. We can truthfully agree with Shakespeare, who said,HThe man that hath no nusic in himself, nor is not mov' with Concord of sweet sounds, is fit for treasons, stratagem and spoils. The motions of his sairit are dull as night and his affections dark as Erebus: Let no such man be trusted. Mark the music. New Towle 40' 6 HOW OUR HIGH SGHGOL TRAINS FOR AGRICULTURE Can you imagine a boy of high school age in a small country school? A Many such boys 6UtBT'UIgh school with no outlook on life or without a vocation to enter 'into after' graduationt Many of these boys go through highcschool and-come out-anew prepared for any work and not knowing what their life work will be. This is a cause for a great many unemployed men in our country. A great help to these boys is the value of Man- ual Training and Vocational Agriculture. - Manual Training is taught in many high schools in the United States, but the subject greatly increasing in popu- larity and in the number enrolled in the public schools of nearly every state in the union iw Vroational Agriculture. I will try to give you a brief article on how Vocation- al Agriculture is taught in our school. A room on the basement floor of the school house is re- served as the agriculture room, There are several work benches, a tool cupboard and a combination lathe, jig-saw, bench-si?,teorder,1and grinder all fpowgregl bg the sam: mo or. io ner cupohard is reserved or .ex boo s, a rac for bulletins and another for magazines, We have notebooks in which ve keep records of our study. The notes for these books we get from tcxtoooks,bnilehins sent out by the exten- ign Service of the state, and magazines pertaining to age r cu ure. About once a month we take the magazines and go over them carefully, bringing out the important and unusual de- tails. We also leavn the principles of raising crops and livestocki We also learn the control of parasites and di- 8688880 Although this is only the second year that we have had Vocational Agriculture, there are more than twenty-five boys enrolled in it, - With a Vocatgonal Agr ca ture Training, a young man coming out of high school, aeed never worry about being un- employed, because n natter that hanpens in this world,there is alvayz a unei for agriculture products. Even in war they are needed, CHU also in peac. troy, Harold Gilbert '41 QW X QQX f 'Www Exe 2 W faq X8 X , 'X 1 U fx 5 X . sl, K 7 Y Nsxx .sg ,W ?HE?TQifE'iZ1EE9iH'9 ..'i'l F ' ' . , 5G?di3fELSuE9'ET:lis2?k' ' 7Z!SiYi3b?5T!5f:3ilIiq9iI,,.X,Q'3FiY ' Irma Mae Barker 'Pep' Born Canton, Maine, lay 5, l921.

A winter storm had biownfthe tree.dewn, and we had hauled it away. . nOh dear, Barney, I suppose we have got to hunt a new nesting holeln wailed Mrs. Betsy to her mate. We'll never find one as cozy as that woodpecker's holel Ahd'we!nee,al- ready two weeks late1V It was hard work: for holes were scarce.. To be sure. there was a hole in the oldest apple-tree, but it was occup- ied by Mr. and Mrs. Nuthateheg and Jenny Wren's bird house, though still empty, was so tiny that the bluebirds who WQPE six and one half inches long, could not have squeezed in at its wee door. The other bird houses around the orchard farm- house were already taken by English sparrows, and though our bluebirds were bigger than the sparrows and could have,driv- en them out they were too good natured to start a fight. At last'Mrs, Qetsy found a hollow rail fence, and after looking it over carefully, the pair began to lug grass and small peices of moss, together with hairs and feathers for a living. By the middle of May the nest was complete and the first two pale bluish-white eggs were laid, Then one day a cruel hand spoiled it all by ripping the soft, decayed wood off the top of the hollow rail fence- and exposing to view the little home with its four eggs. Mr.'and Mrs. Barney were so upset by this mishap that they deserted the eggs and started off in search of a new nesting placey Finally they'lighted upon a post just outside our gategf On it was a steel box marked HMAILH and had not only a narrow sllttin the top, but a big hole underneath that would vsorve for a door, into which the mailman usually dropped the larg- er peices of mail, Delighted with a house so well built that itss Hoof could not be pried off, the bluebird pair began to build a second nests But the bluebird pair had not seen the last of their troubles. Scarcely had the bluebird mother laid five eggs in- that dark cozy cradle than the mailman'came along and began dropping peices of mail through the narrow slit at the top right onto their very nest. This caused an uproar and very much frightened Mr. and Mrs. Barney. We found it was the new mailman who had done this: because he did not know that 10 there were bluebirds in the box. So the next day we set' up a new box for the mail on the other side of the gate, and put a sign over the other one saying HBLUEllRD COTTAGEH . After that the parents were left in peace, and so hape py were they in their queer little nest that they stayed all summer and reared two more broods'in 'Bluebird Cottagen . Victor Davis '42 MY GQEAT UNCLE BILL Great Uncle Bill was born in Phillips many years before my day. He was six feet two and weighed two hundred pounds. He always amused us greatly, stammering out his stories of days gone by. One of his pet stories was an incident from a hunting trip with one of his old friends, Charlie Pinkham. It seems that they went hunting one day on Uncle Bill'sf back farm which was located about five miles north of his home. Bears were very common in that region then. Therefore, as they were going from the house down to the 'brook, they glanced to the left and Charlie said to Uncle Bill,HSee that there b'ar settin' over there.H' Uncle Bill shouldered his rifle to fire and suddenly the bear spoke: HHere you, Bill Booker, don't you shoot me.n Uncle Bill recognized Old Ike, the peddlery who for years had come ardund.there..He always were his old bearskin coat, that is when the ground was frozen and the weather was cold enough. - NNell, well, Ike,H said Uncle Billg Hhaven't seen you for a year, and when I fust see ye, I almost shot ye.H W Here he laughed uprearously. The hunting trip was dise continued as they returned to the house for dinner. The rest of the afternoon was spent in recalling of old times. Uncle Bill always had some such a story asithis when we came to visit him. After he finished his story' he would always turn to mefthen, about five years oldJ'and say: uwell, now where's my smack for telling ye a story?n A kiss was the only reward for such capital storiesm Arlene Waite '43 W-A-R is a tiny pillar upholding a great tower of meaning. ll A MOTHER'S EXPERIENCE My mother hhsrtold me a very interesting story, which was told her by her grandfather and I am going to tell it to you. Many years ago, my great, great, great grandfather and grandmother lived in their home, which was on the Andros- eoggin River, on the site of what is new known as the NHerd sdale Farnn. In the house was a large, old fashioned brick oven, where my great, great, grandmother did the cooking for her family. I think she must have had plenty to de,be- cause in those days, families were large. On cooking days, she cooked food enough to last for several days because she could'nt run out to the grocery store and get canned goods as we do, On the opposite side of the river, which is Canton Point, was a camping ground for Indians as they were travel ing through this section. They were friendly Indians and often called at the homes for a friendly call. They some- times crossed the river and stopponb it my 'great, fgroatl great grandmotherls would ask for food, if she happened to be baking. , One particular morning, the men had gone into the wood a.d left my grandmorhxr alone to do her cooking for a week ahead, Sno probably was very, very busy planning the food for her family. AS the food was baked, she took it fromtne oven and put it on the large, old fashioned kitchen table. Suddenly, she looked out ans saw some Indians coming across the river in a canoe. As she wfs alone, I think she must have hoped that they would'nt stop at her house. But she watched aid saw them beach their canoe, scramble up the river bank and approached the house. One of them knocked at the door, and as grandrother opened it, three Indians walk- ed in. at once they spied htr tempting looking food and ask her for some of it.- She wfs so afraid that she would'nt do enough to kcep them friendly, that she kept giving them the nice fresh food until they had her'week's supplu and were carrying it away with them. e How disappointed she must have been to have har family 'S food taken away like th t, but how glad she must have betn that she had been able to ktep them pleased so that they did her no harm. I wonder what the hungry men did when they came in from the woods. Probably everyone was glvd that ny grandmother had bten able to protect herself so easily, even though they had to go without some kinds of food for the next few days.

It was scheduled as a bi5 day because both teams stood undefeated. , At one in the afternoon everyone was at the field. Each team was determined to be the winning side. - May, of Jackson High, was a poor player quite the opposite of her best pal June. May felt disappointed that she had received only one chance to show herself. Since then she had practised but as the team was selected, she went along as a spectator. The ,ame went smoothly until the third inning. Mary was batting. In her excitement after hitting the ball she flung the bat and hit June on the ankle. June immediately fell to the ground. Doctor's were called, and June's injury was claimed so serious that a removal to a hospital was necessary. June was placed in a room at the end of the ward. Fortunately, the hospital was situated next to the field , with a telescope unfortunate June missed the chance thinking nothing was the date, the friend. Ruth was came to entertain the game could be seen plainly. However w-s forced to lie flat on the bed, so she of even seeing the game. Just as June was good could happen the thirteenth as such door slowly opened and in walked Ruth, her a spectator hearing of June's misfortune her, and asked how it could be done. June's prompt reply wus, uTe1l me how the game standsn. Ruth related, HWel1 it's the last half of the seventh inning and the score is 18-16 in favor of Franklin. 1'm afraid wo've lost. They're out of substitutes, and now they'l1 have to choose a spectator. why, they've chosen May. There was a groan from June, HOh, dear, I'm glad in a way, she has a chance to play but if she is-unsuccesful, it will be herd for her. How I wish I were there! We'll lose now surely. Help me out of here! 1 must go! ndith much pain she rose but fe1l,1ifelessly back. uTwe strikes, two outs, the bases are full: the pitcher is outing over a strike. She swings and hits it. It is a high fly and is headed for the left fielder. He has caught it. HO, she drops it, May! Run! Run! She's there safe at first and is headed for the second she is forced to slide. Snefs there in the nick of time. The score is now 18 to 18 and she hits a fly. It's caught, but Jean and Faye come in and make the score 18 to 20. The 5ame is overn. uJackson is undefe ted and now hay will be on the team. Well this day h-s proven thirt en is not always unlucky .U cried June with tears in her eyes, ul'm so glad.n Annie Grudginsky '45 Amnrloa knows but one direction and that is onward. Time will bring-changes, but not in the main course.--Henry Ford. 15 KILLING E RATTLE-SNAKE Have you ever killed a rattle-snake? Well one summer 0 few years ago I had the experience of killing one. I was out in the woods walking alone one day when suddenly I came to a brook, I had come some distance so I thought I would sit down on a rock to rest. Just as I was about to look at the handsome flowers that surrounded my feet I saw instead, a rattle-snake crouched down by my feet.' It didn't take me very long to get up and go running off toward home, I kept thinking of the rattle-snake. I then found a nice heavy stick of weed and went back. It was still there. I crept up to it softly, then fin- ally I beat it until it was dead.i I hated to do a thing like this to him, but I thcught perhaps it was a poisinous snake and if it had bitten me, it weuld have either been his body that had been killed or mine. This is my experience of killing a rattle-snaket' I hope in all my days I never meet another one when I am walking in the weeds alone. Berne Hodge '41 THE CAUSES PF FAILURE IN SCHCCL The principal reasen fer failure in school is lack of effective study habits. There are numerous reasons for this lack ef study. The average persen shsuld be able to do suf- ficient studying te enable him to pass, during school hours however much ef the time allowed fer study in school is al- ways carelessly wasted. Furthermore, there is a lack ef home studying, there are gefd reasons fur this, and the autcmcbile is the prin- cipal une mfst students ef high-school age in this state is that they find somewhere to ge three er four nights a week either te the mcvics er dances, if there are ne movies or dances that particular night, they may just ride around. Consequently they io net get their studying done and in a goed many eases fail at least one subject. Eventually, they take this subject over again,and per- haps fail again in this study or something else. These stu- dents should take a post-graduate eeurse and not try to crowd their failness in the next years work. However, the develepsment of better study habits both at home and in school, could reduce or entirely eliminate these unnecese sary failures.

Frances Richardson '45 THE STORY OF A TRAIN WHESK A train wreck is exciting, I'm sure you'll all agree, For in our town one happened, Just yesterday you see, Erly in the morning, I heard my brother shout, nThe frieght train has just been wrecked, Hurry up and come out.n uGet out of hereu, I answered, nTere's nothing I can dc, l'd rather have my morning sleep, Then see a wreck or two.H The Wrecker came from Rumford, Chugg-chugging down the track, The crew all worked from morn till night, To get the freight cars back. They worked until the track was cleared, The trains ,assed on their way, But twc freight cars are still up turned, To be righted another day., The wrecking train came chugging back, Next morning just at eight, HLetYs bo and watch them now,n Called brother from the gate, Spectators came from far and near, The over turned cars to veiwz They watched the dorrick, the engineer, And all the workmen tee. Finally the task wfs congletedz And the work train wont away, Leaving the track already, For the use of ancther day, Adria Marston '45 Every mark on the ground, every scratch on the bark of a tree,has a def- inite pieoe of information to impart to well versed in the language of the trails.sErnest Harold Baynes, American Naturalist. TRAVEL It is fun to travel around the world, And see all the different places: It is fun to go to nation to nation, And see many different faces. To London we will first go. There, power is in the air. Then to Paris we must gc, And find perfume in the air. Then to Rome we will venture, And see the glories of the past: Our trip has been e short one, But not so very fest. There are many places of interest, But only one place for me, I love America, for wont she is, And what she is to be. Erlnnd Fuller '42 IF If you can find anything that is better than sprinb, When all about you the bluebirds sing, WHGH you hear tne whisper of the whippoorwill, And gay little brooks with rieples und trills. If you can find anything that is better than soring, When the music in your heart begins, With beautiful lawns filled with tints of green, And the shme on the trees me es e wonderful scene. If you can find unuthin, that is better than spring, When all about you the bluobirds sinh, Tnen take me, t ke me, there I pray, And I will stay the e, A year and Q diy.

FISHING HLst's all go fishinggn I'said to the girls one day, HThe pickeral and the salmon Are just waiting out at bay.n So we went out on the bay to fish, And each cast his line, The fish started biting on the other girls hooks While they started away from mine. The fish didn't bite at my hook at all! The other girls were getting many. The fish didn't seem to stay on the line, And I wasn't getting any, I got angry and tired of waiting For the fish to nible and bite, So I decided there wasn't any harm In sleeping a wee mite. I fell asleep instantly, And dreamed I was in heaven Where the fish just Jumped at your hook, And you could catch them by seven. All at once my line gave a yank I And awakened me from my sleep. I had a bite: it was a salmon. It was pulling me off my feet' I began to reel the line in That fish mustn't get awayu It was the only bite I got, And I had been there all day. To make the story short, the line broke, And, of course the fish got away. That's the last time I went fishing. I haven't been since that day, I don't know whether this is Criticism or Romatism. It may be plain Allegory. Of course you don't have to believe it anyway, Because it's only a fish story. Edith Allanach '41 It doesn't cost anything to think, but it may cost a lot if you don't, TREES I think that I shall never see Along the road an unscraped tree, Whose bark intact and painted white That no car ever missed at night, A tree that looked as bright QS day But is dead cause it was in the way, A tree that might have been in bloom But not now, it has met its doom. God gave us eyes so we could see, But any fool can hit a tree, Harold Gilbert '41 WINTER I like the crunch of snow Beneath my moving feet, And the crisp, cold, frosty air, Just makes the pulses beat. I rush down to the lake To join the merry throng, It's skating to end fro, Life seems one happy song. My sled's next on the scene, Up the hill we race, We pile it full of boys and girls, Then down the course we chase. Skies are always fun, As through the sir we desh, A It's jip! dipl tripl Ne lend there with s crashl The seasons sll may have their sports, Of every class and kind, But every thing considered, Yinter sports just suit my mind.

E x C E E E 2 A 55 ,ELC HAEIGES One rfiney day while I was looking over magazines in the attic,'I noticed a few NLifen, WLibertyH, Fortunen, and HVogueN, magazines. Then I discovered another pile.They were yearbooks from different schools in Maine. On the top I noticed the NNautilusU that was from the West Paris High School. I found the Clarion part of the book interesting. The next book I saw was nThe Chroniclen from Paris High School. In your sports section I noticed a few things we do not have. They are, badminton, hiking, and bi- cycling. I think that they would be valuable sports to have in our school. I liked the book very much. I recognized the NBreezesN from Jay High Schoo1,and lik, ed the idea of the autographs for the Seniors.This is a good book. nThe Tattlern from Rangely High School was next.I liked the material you used for your book. There were others but I didn't have time to look at them. I enjoyed myself very much looking at the books. We expect to exchange with the following schools: NThe Eaglen Wilton Academy, Wilton, Maine NHebren Aeademyu Hebron, Maine HThe Go-Getteru Bliss College, Lewiston, Maine NLeavitt Angelusn Leavitt Institute, Turner Center, Maine WThe Pilotu M. F. H. S., Mechanic Falls, Maine We -------- U Livermore Falls, Maine n ------------ U Rumford, Maine We do not yet know the names of the yearbooks from Rum- ford and Livermore Falls.
