Now, not all these western and murder stories are very good for the children that watch them. You turn on the television to listen to the news and yov. hear about these teen-agers who have held up a bank or have shot someone. But just before the news there was a western and after the news there is a murder story, and oeople wonder why xa are so many delinquent teen-agers. It is just natural that a child will see something on tele- vision and then go out doors and do the same thing maybe with a toy gun, but when he gats older he will use a real gun. Now I know, of course, that everyone likes a good western or a murder story now and then, but I think that they should cut down on them and have more edr.icational orograms which would help the child to learn, and ma be help him In future years. Richard Boudreau '59 GOOD FILLING LI TUN THE TEAM—VITAL?? In such a s ’.all school, we are bound to have more than our share of petty jealousies, quarrels, and rivalries. The importance of an amicable relationship between students is especially important on a tea . Since this is basketball season we shall concentrate on that sport. If players don't particularly like one another or have a personal grud-e or pre- judice, It'shows in the ga'e. They won't be nulling together, How can they, when one olayer is harboring bad feelings toward another? If you can't overcome these feelings completely, you should, if only for the gaie, forget differences the minute you get out on the floor. When a nlayer goofs'1, forget it. Don -1 ma e him or her feel guilty for the rest of the season by riduculing him. Keep up team morale by joking with each other, not ridiculing--there is a sharp difference—and naking light of losing; that is, being a good sport when your team loses. That doesn't mean to r0 to the games with the idea that you are going to lose anvway. Don't: You have often heard someone say Boy, we're going to get beatv-ntonight, ' or Oh, well, we always losel If you. feel ttu way yon are rs good as beaten before you even start.

To make sure all camp Tires are entirely put out. . 2. to make sure he knows what Lie is shooting at before pulling the trigger. 3. Vo kiiow that when he shoots, his gun is not aimed at a person or in the direction ofcattl , horses, or other domes- tic animals. ii. To take sure his gun is empty when it should be empty. The dangers a hunter faces while hu tin ’ are: 1. Getting shot at by some creck-pot hunter. ?. Getting lost in an unfamiliar woods or mountain. 3. Gettin shot by an enyt rifle, so to speak; that is by one he thought was not loaded, but was. In many cases a person has buck fever when he sees what he is going to snoot; t :at is, he shoots ul his cpr ridmes into the air or ground or in any direction. This is pang?-u„ to his hunting companions, and fisc, for hi a These dangers could be prevent, f if a person would just look ahead before he acts. By full ruaiMag woat could happen no could $..uard against the in the fut ure. Then hunt- ing could be a reasonably safe spore. John Granger 159 THRIFT I think if is a pit to hav.. the st. dents of schools throug out th.. country, i around just throwing their money awa- . 3y this, I mea.. spen t ng tneir mourn' on thin s such as pinball bjscn nes, prol yr ies, candy, so ia-pop, anu other luxuries that are unnocosaar . In oruor to overcome this tendency, one could easily work out a budget plan, making it possible: to save a cer- tain amount each week. Tac i week's savim woul and up to a substantial ?mount in tie period of a year. This is net the onl point to be considered, another taing t .et students often do, is to carve their initials and mark up their desks-which thoir own parems have paid for through taxes. also many students waste a considerable amount of pacer. One does this, not stopping to think that it involves not only their parents toriftineas, but their own tco. p t y.n. o 1.. ■, j' « r j nf : t-r - V V fj c+ -V c ■ tr to ■« - ti .

I'm sorry, Hiss North, answered Bob,'1 I was just dreaming about hov nice it would be to be able to o to the moon for a visit. -°b, 8 very smart as well ar sensitive boy Wanted to become a scientist. However, he was always daydreaming in class, instead of studying. One da -, wnilo tie other tie bers of the science class were making modelr o different animals and m chines, Bob was over in the corner of the room daydreaming about being a scientist, while he was supposed to be building a model of a rocket. Hiss North walked ov:r to him and tanned him on the shoulder. Bob, she said, h ven't you finished building that rocket vet?' No, repliod Bob. Goe, I'm sorrv, iss North. I guess I must havo been daydroa in again. I'M finish it now. !iss North know that Bob wanted to be a scientist, so she made an apoointment with t o Smith Science Laboratory, where they made small rockats, to take he. class for .. visit.

I'll call on each o - you to tell the class about his or her trip to the Smith Science Laboratory.'7 This should be easy for Bob, exclaimed one of his class- mates, since he's so interested m that sort of work. It cert-inly will be, replied Bob,‘ but I'll still take notes to keep in my record book at ho e, The next -ay the chiloren w'oro .all busy as bees, getting ready for their trio which was to take place the following day.

Some of the scientists took the children on a guided tcur through the buildings. Bob was especially interested in the part of the laboratory whore they wore building engines for the rockets. He made quite a few ,iotcs on them. Then tie time came for everybody to go home. They all said Thank-you, and waved good-bye. When the time ca 10 for Bob to tell about the trip, he took out all his material and told about practically every depart- ment in tho S lith Science Laboratory. It was the best story told. At the end of his talk he showed somo samples of engines and rockets which tho men at the laborator'’- 'axrfi him. A. tor doing this, he turned to Miss North and said, Miss North, I don't think you'll have to worry about my daydreaming anymore, b-cause tho man at uhj Smith laboratory said a scientist never has time co stay ana cVgy o-.nm, and I rcall-� want to be a scientist ividroy f tc M3f S'j: MIR Ttfl?

Richard Wostdot '59 GRANDFATHER1S P tCKAXE Dave had b .en listening to his grandfather' who was tell- ing him about the time he climbod Semoro Mountain and of the dangers he encountered while climbing it. After the storv was over Dave began thinking of how much fun it would bo to climb a moun- tain and to prove that ho was a man, for no was only thirteen years old. Then ho remembered tho cliff ii back of his place - one about 200 foot high and a vertical mass of rock. This, he thought, would be a very good substitute for a mountain. Ho decided to alimb it tho next day. Ho stayed awake most of the night planning what it tako with him and now he was to go about climbing it. The next morning ho awoke early and made sandwiches to out into his knap - sack. He found fifty feet of good strong ropo that ho decided to take with him. Then ho went to the closet, where his grandfather1 a mountain climbing axe stood and took it out, •'•his he thought was what ovory climbor needed. Then he wrote a note so his mother would know whero ho was, when she came home from shopping. It was a long walk to tho cliff and he was tired when he got t ere. On looking tho cliff over ho found a placo that looked hard and yot easy, Tho climbing was easy a way, but then It started to, get harder and jardor. In many places there wore only small ledges four inches wide. In one place he could not reach a rock over his head. He threw the ropo over it and hauled himself up inch b’ inch. He was about fifty foot from the top when ho saw his•grandfather and mother standing on top of the cliff, hoy had road the note and had gone up the other way to holf him if he was in trouble. His mother was yelling at him t to bo careful. Her yelling attracted his attention and he started to slido down tho rock he was on. He was almost to tho odge when the pickaxe caught a pioco of jagged rock and stopped his slide. If the axe had not held ho would have boon killed on tho rocks below. His grandfather lowered a rope and told him to Dut it around his waist. Davo did this 'and was pulled uo to saifty. He could see now that he had worried bota his grandfather and his mother, and he folt ashamed. , . • • . oriw -i - bl'. ll ninqS b,ruo«ifl I otiq .wlesjjH .

John Granger '59 A BIRTHDAY PARTY FOR TOM Today was Tom Simon's birthdav. Ton was now fifteen and was allowed to do things similar to those his elder brothers did. He also would be expected to have more responsibility than before. Bedtime now for Ton, would bo 10:00 o'clock instead of 9:30 - of which Tom well approved. Before doinr- r.nythiiqg on his birthday, Tom ad to go to the library r'or his mother to get a book. ’J’-ile Tom was going up tho flight o stoos, to tho librarv a boy c no out and started down the stops. Tom tho ’j?ht it was Ned Collins, but as the boy war about to pass hih, he saw that it wasn't Ned after all. Ton was s 'rprised that as the bov passed him, a folded piece of paper dropped. Tom, noticing this, shouted, :iHev, you dropped a piece of paper.' The bo-1' acted as if he didn't hear Tom and kept walk!' on. Ton hesitated a moment, wondering what ho should do. Then Tom picked up the paper, un- folded itjand read it to himself. The expression on Tom's face was not questionable, bcca se the dropping of tho note by tho bov was evidently not accidental. The inscription which was on the paper w s also responsible for his expression. The paper read: Be at Nod Collin's house at exactly 7:30 P.II. ’■'ait ‘'or further instructions thoro.' SIGN72D------------------- Ton was in a complete daze now. This could be a frame-up. Ton1s head was full of numerous fantastic thoughts. He kept tho note and went abo-’t his business, finding the book for his mother. After getting r.he book he went homo, not say- ing anything about tho strargo hcuocning, to his oarents. Time passed by and it was now 7’’-!F P M. Tom was a bit nervous now. He had now made up his ’ ind uo o to see wh t kind o' a achomo this wrs. Ton timed his planning to approach Ned Collin's 0 house. Ho hesitated a enmont, and then ran: the door bell. Ned. Collin's mother opened tho door and Tom r.sked her if Ned was at home. She answered Tom by savin', 'Yes, he is up stairs. I'll get 'elm. Plcaso come in and sit down, Tom. Ilrs. Collins went to call Ned-. After Tom h d gone in and closed the door he thought it was rather dark insido. All of a sadden there was a loud jumble 6f voices sayin , SU.ftPRISIL J Immediately a light went on, and Tom saw all of his friends approaching from another room.

The mysterious boy going past Tom was Ned s cousin, Tom's mother sent him to the library purposely to have Tom get the note in that Tanner. During the party, Tom was talking to all of his friends. Tom told them about how he thought it was Ned in front of th3 library. When Tom told them about his getting a littlo scares� they all laughed and Tom replied, This has been the most myster- ious birthday I have ever had. David Westcot '60 GHOSTS—OUT OP DATE? Now in these days of T,V,, rockets, missiles, and juvenile delinquents, it seems that everyone pooh-poohs the existence of ghosts. Why, a self-respecting ghost can't oven haunt a house decently, without being lauphed down. Anyone who attempt� to relate an episode of this type, however truthful, is virtually sneered at. Well, just between you and me, of course, you really do believe in ghosts, now don't you? Take the time vou went to Aunt Jane's and slept in the room where Uncle Henry had died twenty years before, and which he was asid to haunt nightly. Just becau-se you closed the windovr twice, it being chilly, and then found, it opened almost immediately each time, that doesn't moan a thingj It could have fallen down. But noiselessly? .. • - • t Remember the time wo visited Cousin Ralph up at hiB old. farm house in the mountains? It was near the place where Tom Dooley was hanged and we saw the very white oak tree that he swang •from. At night, from a distance, it looked kike a man hanging there; now isn't that ridicuipus? It must have been a boar. You know how they stand up on their hind logs-look almost like a man. Speaking Of bears, Cbitiift Ralph told ffie ho aftd a friend were planning to go befir huhtihg in the next state, the following season. Seems a bear hasn't been shot in those mountains for over thirty years. Oh well, I supDose you're right. Ghosts and all that sort oi gobbledy-gook is just a sill piece of someone's overworked imagination.

Tim was wen discouraged, as he started to leave the circus. Then he heard someone behind him shout, Wait, It w s the manager. Tim got e job at the circus feeding the elephants, as .«jell as watering, them, i-.nd beddin.c them down. Tim worked at this job until he was eighteen. Then he was appointed to drive a trailer truck Toeded with two big elephants. The first time lim drove truck he realized how important he was to the circus. They ds 'ended on Tim to take the ele- phants from place to place, care for them when in need of atten- tion, and feed them. Tim wss always working with the mvae two elephants, and he grew to like them very much. As Tim grew older he realized that th elephants depended on hi'T to get them where they were supposed to go. One day Tim was driving toward Florida for the winter, when he blew a tire, causing him to go into a ditch. c?o one war hurt. Tim had to figure a way to get the truck out of the ditch. Then he remembered the two elephant.' in the beck. Tim unhooked the tail rate and led the two elephants to the front of the truck, where be hooked two hure chains to t e trr and to the elephants, ben Tim spoke to the elephants and the hu je chain befcpn to tighten,- the truck t e an to move out of the ditch; soon the truck was in the rc d. Tim 'fut the elenbrnts beck i to the truck, end fired t e tire. Soon im was on the road again. When Tim reached Florida he told the man'cer bus story, .gnd they lpuahed at the w-ry he pot the truck out of the ditch. Tim had done so well thatth 'manager put Tinnip charge of ell the other trucks. With ’’im in charae of everything the circus manager never worried about his animals, and His trucks. Tim used the ele- phants for other things elro, such a puttin. up the bia tents end to move heavy equipment. It was but a few years 10-ter that Tim final y nad his own circus. He hired actors from all over t,e country. Then for a few years Tim end his wife did the tra I ze act. One time the trsaeze broke and his wife was hurt very brr'ly. She w s taken to the hospital, where .she stayed for some time. She died there in the hospital, a month later. After that there w s not much left to keep Tim’s interest in the circus. Tim sold his circus, and enlisted in the service, where he is st?11 serving his country. Tim never ’forgot the tragedy that caused his wife's death.

The cemo was owned by a firend of Bob's. We decided to leave on a Friday night. I was to pick Bob ap on ray way end we would stop end buy our food supplies in his town e c ulc drive right up to the camp, reaching there sbout midnight, sit was rather cold the first thing'we did was tc get wood ano start a fire. It must have been about two o'clock before we finally hit the sack. Of course we were anxious to get out early in the morn- ing for hunting So we were up et'five o'clock. After cooking and eating a food breakfast we were on our way. We headed straight into the woods and walked all mornin without s nc anything or anyone. We finally stooped and'ate a quick lunch; then we decided to bgeak up, agreeing that we would meet et the camp at five o'clock,. I wandered ail afternoon alone through the woods, seeing a few tracks but none of f e Real MjCcy'’. I returned to camp at five and started to ; et supper.. Five thirty came, supper was ready, but no Bob. Six o'clock came and still o Bob. I began t cet worried aid thought Bob tauat be lost or hurt. At six-thirty Bob dragged through the door. He said he had been following some tracks since two o'clock. Finally he got lost end that was why he was so late. Since we were both very tired we hit the sack early. At four o'clock that next morning we were up and in a hurry to get started, leaving the camp by five o1 clock. Bob thou ht the tracks he iu d seen toe day before looked like a deer run. so wo headed in th t direction. Eefore wc j.ot there we discovered more tracks but these were not deer tracks. Wc thou ht they looked like B.-AR tracks. -t the I i ie we really didn't think too much about it, but ust went walking, on. , en we hit the deer run we met two other fellows, who had s en deer anc were iust ahead of them. ,e decided that the four of would separate and see if we couldn't get at least one deer aa,onr us. We agreed to meet at the sane spot et four o'clock in the afternoon. T traveled all morning, seeing three doe and ' ne buck, but, of course, when I s’ ot et him I missed. I ate a few 'Sandwiches at noon and then traveled on. Finally I came to the top of a hill w ere I could see off for miles. I took mv field glasses and looked all around. I could see somethin which I thought was Bob off in the dustence. I watched and finally whatever it was went osck into the woods. The next thing I saw corain out of the woods anc1 into the clearing was a big black object It was too far off for me to makf .v ‘ • ■; . ' ••• « ' i ■ • j ■ ■ ■ -3 ■ ' . tu ■ . , ■ cut whc‘ it was. T wondered if it were some-thi lg from outer spece. I headed in t iat general d-’ .-ectim an met one of the other men, just about where I had seen the black object. We examined the traces and decide it must be a ‘grizzly . Since it seemed to be not too far behind Bob, and not knowing whet 'er ne knew it or not, we hurried on. Darkness was closing in on us very fast. Jerry, the man who was w ti ne, had a flash light, and we could see that tne trac s were real ! made by a 'grizzly'' and that -e was very near. We could 0I30 see there must be more than one. We finally caught ur with Bob, but didn't see any bears. We also decided we were lost and thought we ought tc stop before we got any farther off the trail. We took turns sleeping, and as soon as day-light can® we were ready to go, as we were l pp anxious to find our way out. ”ach of us took a shot at the grizzlies - shooting at least three times apiece and finall” bringing two down. The shots were heard by t ie other man whom we had net, aid he soon found us. ns he seemed to know his vrav about, the four cf us snak- ed the bears out, and we ’in: ll reacned our camp. The other men were staying for anotner week, and al- though Bob and I had to be heme and ready for work on Monday morning, we decided we were going to be a little late. We offered on3 of the beers to the ether men, but they refused, saying that as they were staying another a week thev had still a chance of getting one. We loaded the bears on the car and headed for hc ie, Just before we reacned Bob's town a buck ran out cf the woods directly in front cf us. We came to a sudden stop a.id took after him. I'll be darned if we didn't get him. When we reacaod Bob's 10 ne fe weighed the bears and tie deer. 'Thinking it really nad been a vo. sucessful hunting, tripj I went on to ay home with a bear aid half the deer. Kiclisrd Boudreau '59 ic • i:- -Sc ■!. i.

At quarter to nine every .norning, except Sundays, the townspeople gather at the Bost Office. The women talk about relatives, sewing, and the twwn gossip; the men talk about oolitics and the latost baseball scores. The little window opens, signifying that the wail is sorted.
