The members of the faculty have changed somewhat throughout these four years: however, we feel that Wes have indeed been fortunate in always having such excellent instructors. Many times during the past years, and especially this, our senior year, have our thoughtless pranks and other misdemeanors sorely tried the patience of our teachers. In spite of these, however, they have put up with us and have tried to correct our mistakes without being too harsh. Our high school days, together with our other years of school, have laid the foundation for our later life, even more than has our home training. Here it is that we learn our mode of conduct -- how to get along with other people: how to play fair: how always to be a good sport, whether we win or lose. Here we learn the basic know- ledge essential in our later careers. 3 E w'u'.m'v'nlN4'U'nII-fWuIma'uiuImu'vMv'uhN vl.Iu'v'sIh'U'm.m'u. 9 0473 ?'1 Here we make many of our friendships which often last through all our life. Here is spent the beginning of our lives teaching us how to enter the great School of Life and emerge successful. Our teachers are the ones who have taught us these: to them goes all the honor for what we may ever hope to do in later life. We may well say. All that we have been or hope to be we owe in a large part to our faculty. Now, what may we do to show our appreciation for this effort our faculty has put forth for us? The best way to show this is for us never to do any less than our best in the work we choose after we leave this school, always upholding the principles which we have been taught, always remem- bering that When the One Great Scorer comes To write against your name, I-le writes not that you won or lost, But how you played the game. --Pauline Gillen Editor in Chief '37 Mfrs

Mathematics We feel we havebeen very fortun- ate in having Mr. Perkins as our principal during the past three years. This is his twelfth year of teaching. In 1923-24 he taught in Friendship High School. He received his B. S. degree from the University of Maine in 1925. During 1925-26727 Mr. Per- kins was one of the members of the Ashland High School faculty. 1928 found him as principal at Pembroke High School. 1929-30, at Eastern Maine Institute. Patten was fortunate in having him as their principal from 1930-1934. During his first year at A. C. I. he was coach of girls' basketball and turned out a co-championship team. Throughout these three years, Mr. Perkins has always been willing to help us with either our school work or school problems. We hope he will be with us many years to comxe. MR. GEORGE. M. OSGOOD, B. S. Agriculture Two years ago, an agricultural course was established at A. C. I.with Mr. Osgood at its head. Throughout these two years Mr. Osgood has built up the argicultural course to 'its pres- ent high standing. Mr. Osgood was graduated from the University of Maine in 1934. His first year of teaching was at Sherman Mills. In his first year at A. C. I. he coach- ed the girls' basket-ball team, who won the county Championship. This year he is coaching the boys' baseball. It is with the deepest regret that we learn Mr. Osgood is leaving us. Al- though we shall certainly miss him, we are glad Fort Fairfield will have the benefit of his capable teaching and pleasing personality. May the best of luck follow him ever! ll'llIll'hillIllIIlIllllllllllllllIllIIlllllhllIFIlllllIl'Illlllllilllllllllillhnll I 'I MR. CARL E. CUNNINGHAM Commercial Mr. Cunningham came from Patten, Maine, and has been teaching at A. C. I. for the past four years. He received his' training at Shaw College and Bryant and Stratton College. He has .also taken special courses in dram- atics and public speaking. Besides teaching commercial sub- jects. he has been very active in coach- ing dramatics and public speaking. This year he has organized a Com- mercial Club, which has created much interest. I ll 4' 8 MR. PA UL N. CARPENTER, B. S. . . . Science Mr. Carpenter graduated from our own Aroostook Central Institute. He received a B. S. degree at Bates, from which he was graduated in 1933. He teaches physics, chemistry, commer- cial arithmetic, and general science. Mr. Carpenter introduced into the school curriculum a First Aid 'Course which is certainly a beneficial study. In school activities Mr. Carpenter's in- fluence is duly reflected. As a coach, we find winter sports, track, and cross- country responding to his skill. ik if li ll MR. Lf VERDELLE CLARK, B. S. Biology Presque Isle, Maine, is Mr. Clark's home town. He was graduated in 1936 from Bates College. There he was the assistant instructor in his major sub- ject, biology. He was prominent in athletics and coached a basket-ball team. U nder his able coaching, A. C. I. 's basketball team has emerged as league champions without a league defeat. This spring, Mr. Clark has ably coached the field events in the outdoor sports. Mr. Clark teaches biology, general science, and history.
