THE HUTTLESTONIAN 31 EXCHANGES One afternoon with nothing to do, I dug out my magazines and had a review. One of the first to catch my eye Was The Memory Chest” from Kingston High. There was wonderful poetry and many short stories, While an excellent sport page told of their glories. The Clipper” from Esk Hopkins Junior High, (Situated in Providence, R. I.) Had an interesting puzzle in the issue of ’34 Called ' ' Book Jamboree Titles”—Fun galore! If you wish for good manners, just follow the rule Written in the editorials from Barnstable’s school. The cartoons in The Clipper” added a pile To one of the best magazines on file. The Blue Owl” from Attleboro, Mass. Was a magazine with a lot of class. All its departments were well done, ’tis true, And the credit should go where credit is due. The Sea Chest” of Nantucket’s Academy Hill Was one magazine that gave me a thrill. Its strong school spirit just flowed from the pages, And its memory should last throughout the ages. Sachem” from Memorial High of Middleboro Had only one thing I could find in error. The advertisements were mixed with poems and jest, To have them separate, I think would be best. The Harbor Beacon” , Harbor School, New London Is a book young people find much fun in. As for mistakes, I found no other Except for advertisements on the back cover.

32 THE HUTTLESTONIAN In my wanderings, I next found, The Pilgrim”, ’way from Plymouth town. Its literary department, I could not overlook, And I found much joy in this well-written book. in my mind will never cease The memory of Sunny Days”, from Athens, Greece. Its poetry told of a by-gone day, Written in interesting and fascinating way. The Brown and White”, from Stonington Was an abundant source of fun. Its literary department surely was fine, But I’d strive for better editorials, if the job were mine. The next book I found was The Gazette”. Lynn Classical High should be proud of it! Its literary department and cartoons were fine, But at advertisements on the back — I draw the line! From Richmond Hill, I found The Dome”. This New York poetry certainly hits home. The Classroom Capers”, were full of jest, And the magazine rates as one of the best. Through these magazines, our friendships will start — Friendships that will grow, though we’re far apart. Cecelia Barnes, ’37
