Y, Gleason, Douglas Gillette, Marjorie THE HANOVERIAN 5 7 hitnrialz APPRECIATION The students of Sylvester High School are indeed grateful for the beautiful new building which has become a reality through generous gifts and great sacrifices made by the citizens of Hanover. Due to the facilities of this new building, our school oEers new and better courses of study. The adequately equipped Chemical laboratory has greatly improved our Science depart- ment. Since our classroom capacity permits, Mr. Orcutt and Mr. Hatch have been instrumental in introducing an Agricultural Course into our curriculum. This course is greatly appreciated by those students who live on farms and can apply their know- ledge in a practical way. The new building and grounds which are being rapidly de- veloped oEer several new recreational opportunities. We have the privilege of dancing in our spacious auditorium for twenty minutes after lunch each day. The stage in this auditorium gives opportunity for greater dramatic activities. Already, we have presented one three-act play. The operetta presented re- cently included fully three-fourths of our student body. The new athletic fields which are now being completed will provide for many new sports for girls as well as boys. Besides these beneits, the new building with its new furni- ture lends an atmosphere conducive to better scholastic accom- plishments. A few who were not doing their best in the old building have become inspired by the new environment and equipment provided for them in Sylvester High School. The Work of the student body at large is of a much higher grade. Each student from the mighty Senior to the humblest Fresh- man takes a personal pride and interest in doing his or her part to maintain the perfect condition of the building. This appreciation has been shown in many instances. One evidence of this grateful spirit was shown when a request was made for boys to bring axes to help clear the grounds in front of the building. On Saturday morning many boys responded cheerfully and worked well. Even little things are guardedg pencils are carried in the left hand so 6 THE HANOVERIAN as not to mar the walls in passing through the corridors. A small boy was seen using his eraser diligently to erase a mark on a desk. Likewise a young lady was seen on her knees gathering bits of paper from the floor. The paper had not blown from her desk, but since the owner of the desk was absent she felt it her duty to see that the pieces were put into the waste basket. This same spirit prevails throughout the whole student group and faculty. Again we would assure the citizens of Hanover that we are proud of the beautiful building which has been given to us and that we will always consider it our duty to protect and care for it. Arthur Clifton, '27. COMMENCEMENT At last we have learned enough to begin to really learn something, now it is time for us to go out on our own, do our own thinking and make our own futures. Heretofore, our parents, our teachers, and our friends have reared, educated us, and stimulated our interests but only we, ourselves, can make our lives successful. And who are we? The Senior Class of 1927, prey already to the thrills and regrets of graduation. One moment, the exulting joy of escape from the long, tedious years, seizes us, the next, we are sighing for days that will never return, longing for happy days, for sad days, which we did not value then for the precious jewels they were. We are either hopeful of what is before us, or sorrowing for what is behind us, either joyful of what we are going to do, or are regretting what we might have done. But it is good to be alive, to stand looking out over an uncon- quered world, and to feel you have acquired sufficient knowledge to begin the battle of life. The Senior bears a great responsibility. Is he not the maker of the new years, of the new generations and of the new United States? The work of his hands will either be one more lamp lighting the straight and narrow path of Eternity, or a worth- less husk, lost in the dark, just one more stumbling block for the next traveller. Perhaps his work will make an enticing false light, shining down a path to hell. Education brings forth devils as well as angels. But Hanover High has produced no monsters, and, we sincerely hope, never will. THE HANOVERIAN 7 The Class of '27 now stands on the brink of life. We have just begun to shoulder our responsibility. We hardly realize as yet that we, who only a day or two ago, it seems, were exasper- ating our teachers with our thickness of skull, were bothering them with our arguments, were trying to escape the reciting of unlearned lessons, with a bombardment of questions, are about to be shoved out into the world leaving behind us only the intan- gible effects of our influences and traditions. The memory of those individuals alone, who are the destined children of Fame, survives. The teacher, the workman, the married woman, the school's foot-ball hero-their names are lost but it is by these patient and unassuming souls that most of the world's work is done. As men and women we shall always look back on our beauti- ful new school with gratitude to the good man who made its con- struction possible. And never shall we forget that other school, that dear old town hall, in which we spent more than three years of our school life. Each of us will go his separate way. Time and space con- quereth all things, but sweet memory records the friendships and pleasures of other years. Let us move on, dear class of '27 for other classes even now are crowding swiftly behind us, to fill the space we leave. Katherine Townsend, '27. A SUGGESTION Now that we are established in our New High School Build- ing, there are many whose thoughts turn to the memory of one who worked long, earnestly, and faithfully for the consummation of this project but who did not live even to know that her desire would be granted. Of all those, who in the past century, have been interested in our public schools, none have been more de- voted to the welfare of these schools than Mrs. Harriet S. Rus- sell. It seems fitting and proper that something should be done to perpetuate her name, in the New School Building. It has been suggested that the laboratory might be named for her or that a tablet to her memory might be placed in the building. 8 THE HANOVERIAN HANOVER Hanover, one of the oldest towns of the United States, will be celebrating its 200th anniversary this year. It seems appro- priate to review its history in this issue of the Hanoverian. On the fourteenth day of June, 1727 the Lieutenant-General, Council and Representatives in General Court assembled and passed an Act for erecting a new town within the County of Plymouth by the name of Hanover. This town was to consist of parts of Old Scituate and Abington grants. We do not know why the name of Hanover was chosen, but but how the spelling became changed can be accounted for by the inclination to make improvements in every way on everything. When Hanover was incorporated, it contained about eleven thousand acres, but in 1757, about one tenth of this territory was annexed to that part of Pembroke which is now Hanson. Since 1754, the change in the boundary lines has been slight. There have been several enactments of the Legislature to define the boundaries, but this was to make them clear rlather than to change them. In order to make Hanover a town, the inhabitants had to build within two years a suitable house for the Public Worship of God, and as soon as possible, procure a minister of good conver- sation, and make provision for his comfortable support. Also they had to provide for a school-master to instruct their youth in reading and writing. The First Congregational Church was built in 1728. Much of the lumber was given by men from different towns. The orig- inal church was burnt in 1862. When we look upon the improve- ments of this edifice during the last year we are firmly convinced that the citizens of the town are still upholding the principles which this first church and town stood for. In April 1830, a standing school was voted, at or near the meeting house and May 18, provision was made for building a schoolhouse of wood. This first schoolhouse stood near the center of the town. In 1808, the schools were divided into districts, seven in number. In 1868, the High School was established. The work has been one of steady progress as we can see by the Sylvester High School, a modern building of which any town might be proud. Another example of the interest shown in higher education is the gift of John Curtis' Free Library in 1887, of 1,800 volumes THE HANOVERIAN 9 of standard and popular books with cases to hold them. These were given as the nucleus of a free public library. By many other gifts made by his daughter and himself, Hanover was en- abled to build in 1907 the present library. A In the later part of the eighteenth century, and early part of the nineteenth century, we find that considerable ship building was done on the North River. Shipyards ran the Whole length of the river on both sides. The second oldest yard on North River is The Old Barstow Yard . The Barstow family was the most prominent of the first settlers in Hanover. Schooners were built rather than larger ships because they coudn't be floated down to the sea on account of the shallowness of the river. A number of iron foundries were established, in which were made cannons and cannon balls, ploughs and anchors. Also there were several grist mills, saw mills, board and shingle mills. Hanover has the distinction of being the town where the first suc- cessful iron ploughs in America were made. Many anchors also were forged, notably those for the old warship Constitution. We are constantly reminded of these two industries when we see the town seal. Other industries were tack making, wood-making, clock- making and about 1800 to 1888 boots and shoes were manufac- tured. After the latter date this business decreased greatly and now only one shoe factory remains-this being unused at the present time. In 1846 the people asked for a charter granting the Hanover Branch Railroad. This was granted shortly after but the first train went over this road in 1868 showing it took some time to raise money for such a project. At the present time Hanover is a strictly residential town rather than a manufacturing town of earlier days. Hanover has a few industries, namely, E. H. Clapp Rubber Company, National Fireworks Company, Waterman Tack Factory, located on sites of the old industries, also Lot Phillips Kr Company, Hanover Rubber Company and some other smaller ones. We may well be proud of our town as it has always strived to follow the doctrines set down by our forefathers in 1727.

Let Go! screamed the well dressed girl who had just emerged from a corner store. She waved her hands frantically and kicked right and left at the little collie pup' that was playfully tugging at her skirt, enjoying himself immensely. Fido, come here you scampf' A quiet looking young man crossed the street and grabbed the dog by the collar. I hope this rascal hasn't done any harm. I work in the restaurant across the street and I happened to see him chasing you. I'm sorry if he has frightened you, Miss -. Miss Morris--Evelyn Morris, the girl informed him. I was a bit frightened but I guess he only meant to be playful. You haven't told me your name yet. Jack Warrens, he said politely with a bow. 'Tm sorry that beastly pup ruined your skirt. Won't you let me call a taxi for you ? Evelyn did not hear these last words-she was thinking. That name, Jack Warrens had struck her like a thunderbolt. Yes, it was this fellow's father who had cheated her uncle in a big horse trade not more than a year ago. She remembered also that the Warrens lived in this city. She'd fix this Jack Warrens and make his father remember that horse trade. She was brought to her senses by Jack's repeated offer. Won't you let me call a. taxi? Oh, no indeed, Evelyn answered sweetly, my car is wait- ing just around the corner. Then allow me to escort you to your car, Miss Morris Y Oh, no, please don't bother, Mr. Warrens. Thank you just the same, and she hurried off. Jack ran to the corner just in time to see her get into a taxi and whiz down the street. Her car? She must own a taxi, he laughed, and without. a second's thought he patted the collie pup and returned to the restaurant. Before the day was over he found himself wondering about the girl in the pleated skirt and sport sweater. What could be her idea in saying, her car was just around the corner and then deliberately calling a taxi ? THE HANOVERIAN 19 While Jack was clattering dishes in the kitchen of the rest- aurant, at the other end of the city, a taxi drew up to the curb and the girl of his thoughts alighted from the cab, paid the driverg glanced up at the beautiful mansion that stood before her. I wish it really were ours, she sighed. I think I could play the game better if it were, but I'll do the best I can anyway. She was greeted at the door by a richly gowned young woman about her own age. Did you have a pleasant time, my dear ? she asked Evelyn as she entered the magnificent living room. Oh, I had a good time, Anna, but-look at your lovely skirt you so kindly loaned me! Between sobs she told her about the horrid pup and of her meeting with Jack Warrens. Little did I think that my visit with you would give me a chance to get even with the Warrens, she said bitterly. I'll pay them back but how can I ever pay you for the damage I have done to your skirt ? N ever mind about that, dear. I've plenty others, she con- soled, but tell me about the Warrens and your Uncle. I don't believe I ever heard about it. S0 they sat on the davenport and Evelyn related the story. It all began like this, she began. We were living in the little town of Hampford. Horses were Dad's favorite hobby and whenever he thought he could make a good buy he would. About a year ago Mr. Tom Warrens came to town, became acquainted with Dad and tricked him into buying Nancy, which he claimed was a famous race horse. She proved to be worth little. Poor Dad lost a great deal of money through this trade but he was never quick to revenge and did nothing about it, so I'm going to take it into my own hands. Evelyn threw her head back defiantly and continued. They aren't rich, neither am I, but I'm going to make them think I am. Jack Warrens has asked me to go to a show with him to-morrow and I'm going. I'll make him believe I think the world of him, and then break our glorious friendship, she said sarcastically. Tears of anger sprang to her eyes but she quickly brushed them away and tried to smile. May I take that lavender crepe of yours, tomorrow, Anna ? You certainly may, but look out for the collie pups , her friend twinkled. Each day for a week Evelyn went to the city. She had be- come well acquainted with Jack and would meet him and go to 20 THE HANOVERIAN the theatre with him. The days she did not meet him she saw him in the Window of the restaurant. The swindler's son, she would say sneeringly. I bet more than one poor soul has been cheated in that restaurant. But as days passed Evelyn found herself looking forward to meeting Jack and wondering whether or not she was doing the right thing by trying to revenge the Warrens. In the end she would always grit her teeth and swear to get even. A few days before Evelyn Was to return to her country home she donned a blue sport suit of her friends and after receiving Annafs compliment, that she looked stunning, started out for the city. That afternoon when she came out of the theatre with Jack he offered to see her home but as usual she told him her car was around the corner. Guess I'll ride down with you, may I? Jack asked. I go down your way, you know. They had just turned the corner and were standing in front of a blue roadster. Evelyn turned quickly. She had a bright idea. I'll take him home and then return the car, she said to herself. Then to Jack, I shall be glad to have you, and she opened the door of the car and slid in behind the steering wheel. They had not gone far when Evelyn heard a motorcycle coming at full speed behind them. As she turned she heard the chugging of the motor. Yes, the cop was following them. What should she do? She would be charged with stealing a car and Jack Warrens would know all about it. Should she tell Jack? Could he straighten things out? She was surprised that it made her feel more at ease to think Jack was with her. She felt like a beaten dog but managed to blurt out, Oh Jack, this isn't my car. What shall I do? I did mean to return it after I took you home. Quick, quick Jack, what shall I do ? Not your car ? Jack exclaimed. Well, I guess we better stop right here. It will go hard with us if we don't. Evelyn brought the car to a sudden stop. The cop was close behind them, but to Evelyn's surprise he Whizzed by them and up the street. She turned to Jack. Why Jack, he-he didn't stop and say anything to me, she said nervously. THE HANOVERIAN 21 And I should like to know why he should, Jack replied smilingly. I guess I have a right to be in my own car. Your car ? gasped Evelyn. Of course it's my car, now tell me what the mystery is. Oh, I might have known I couldn't beat a Warren, she sobbed, and told her story from beginning to end. You don't mean Tom Warrens, the horse trader, Evelyn? he asked when she had finished. Yes , she assured him, Tom Warrens, the horse trader. Why Evelyn, he died three months ago. My father's name is Tom too, but he wasn't any relation. Evelyn dried her tears. Oh I'm so glad, Jack, she cried and then as he took the wheel, started the engine and the car glided along. Where are we going, Jack ? To meet the real Tom Warrens, he laughed, and the little blue roadster shot down the street carrying two of the happiest people on earth. Eva Shurtleff, '27, THE WILD FREE BIRD A cold, gray storm swept over the sea, And dashed its spiteful spray on me- The Wild, free bird.

How many times must I tell you that I don't want you in here? These words came from an elderly bachelor, who was driving some children out of his yard. This bachelor had always lived alone and as the children said probably always would live alone because he was too grouchy for anyone to live with. No one was allowed in his yard to slay nothing of being allowed in his house. That is why the children called him Grouchy . When the children had been chased away, Grouchy went in and sat down, saying to himself, I really like children sometimes but I just don't know how to treat them. I would let them come in here once in a while but then they would want to be here all of the time and I would have no peace. At this moment the door-bell rang. Those pesky chil- dren again ? thought the bachelor. This time I'll fix them good. He took a pail of water and opened the door. Much to his surprise, however, he saw before him, not the naughty chil- dren, but a large basket. Whatever can be in that basket, he exclaimed, Perhaps those kids are up to their tricks again. I guess I'll let it stay there. With these words he turned, but his curiosity got the best of him so he Went back to look at the basket. It was very large and there were two or three blankets on top. He laid these back, stared in astonishment, then cried ex- citedly, My goodness! It is a baby! However did it get here and whatever shall I do with it? Grouchy finally decided to call up the Children's Home and have someone come after the baby. He stalked to the telephone but suddenly changing his mind he said to himself, I guess I'll keep the baby and have a nurse for it. It might make me feel younger and not so grouchy if I had a little child around. The bachelor went back to the steps and brought the basket in. He heard a smothered laugh behind the hedge. At the same time he heard a baby wailing across the street and he said, Oh dear, I can't have any such noise as that around here. I guess the most sensible thing to do is to send the baby away after all. The Children's Home was called this time and a woman came to the bachelor's house to get the baby. She pulled the THE HANOVERIAN 23 blankets back and picked up a large doll. Grouchy stared, the lady stared. Then the angry woman burst into a tirade against the stingy old man. The poor fellow had forgotten it was April Fools' day. Helen Graham, '28. THE EXTREME OF FASHION I suppose I really must have a new suit, Professor Dans- berry reluctantly asserted to himself. I don't know how long I have had this one but it's worn almost threadbaref' The Professor, a tall, thin man with gray hair and old fashion spectacles perched back on his somewhat high forehead, sat in a large, roomy chair in the school library. His lap was full of books, the contents of which he had been greedily absorbing. Clothes were something, as his appearance showed, which he regarded as a matter of course, but every so often he decided he must buy something new, and this happened to be one of the days. So he hastily placed his hat on his head and started to town. On his way his mind was so absorbed in the literature which he had been reading that he noticed no one who passed him, even though they spoke to him. Presently, the professor came to a dry-goods store, and went in. One of the clerks amusedly waited on him while he bought a suit of black and white check, with splashes of green and other bright colors, here and there. It was evidently intended for a masquerade. - After searching several minutes for his wallet he finally found it in a pocket of his vest, which was on Wrong side out. He paid the clerk and taking up the bundles which were on the counter prepared to leave, not realizing that he had taken one which belonged to a lady standing near. Professor Dansberry walked back to the school and absent- mindedly donned the contents of the bundles. When he entered the classroom with an armful of books he gazed innocently at each laughing face. But who could blame them for laughing ?-for the professor was wearing the new suit minus collar and necktie and-a green silk petticoat. Laura A. Whiting, '27. 24 THE HANOVERIAN A RIDE FOR LIFE I became acquainted this fall with a certain morose young man who called himself Peter Hunt. He had been a student of' the old Technical School Building at Buddle Lake, which burned in the middle of the night during an exceedingly dry fall, three years ago. He himself was snatched from the brink of death by a brave fireman, who seeing him gesticulating madly from a win- dow hurried up his ladder and carried him to safety, but his bosom friend,,John Johnston, was burned to death in the flames. Peter Hunt, who had been a jovial young man before his friend's death, then became a morbid fellow, and often went for long, lonely camping trips into the forest surrounding V mountain, an extinct volcano. He offered to take me along with him as he wanted a witness to the scene of a mystery he hoped to be able to disclose. As I was worn out with a long siege of hard work, I joyfully accepted the opportunity for a vacation. We wandered for three days in a mountainous, forested wilderness, while Peter Hunt was scenting the lay of the land. The fourth day we found ourselves well to the north of V moun- tain, following a tiny stream, which was leading us towards the old volcano. About noon Peter Hunt suddenly decided to pitch camp. We entered a bare spot in the woods, in which were three or four charred tree stumps. He brought out an expensive as- bestos canoe, which was his own peculiar invention. Stopping abruptly in his operations, he asked, Does it seem possible to you that a man can dream of a real place and dream about it so vividly that he can recall even the narrowest details most accurately ? I have never heard so, I replied. But perhaps you had visited the place in childhood and had forgotten ever having seen it. But I did dream of a place which I had really never seen, on that night of the fire three years ago, and only today I have found the scene of my dreams. This is where it all began, right here, where We were camping the day of the big forest fire- What forest lire? There has been no forest fire near V mountain for years. Nevertheless, there was a forest fire here in my dreams. Those charred stumps yonder mark the spot of our camp. Let us go down the river in the canoe, and as We go, I will tell you what happened to us in our terrible ride for life. THE HANOVERIAN 25 Immediately we embarked and Peter began his tale as he paddled us swiftly down-stream. John and I had gone camping to this very place, which I remember distinctly as the starting off place of my dream. For three days, we had been having a fine time. Horror came with the fourth. Early in the morning I called J ohn's attention to the smoke of a distant forest fire. 'It is so dry,' I said, 'We would be safer along the edge of the lake. If the wind should rise-' but he scoffed at me. 'You're a fool to want to go back now,, he said. 'That fire is miles away. And, besides, this stream probably enters a lake or a swamp down below? I gave in, but had no wish to go on our planned hunting trip. I felt strangely uneasy, wanted to stay by the water, and wished all the time that we were safe at home. Night settled down, dark and humid and still. Heat lightning flashed in the distance, the glow of forest fires was all around us. The time, as you must remember, was in the early part of Sep-- tember, during a drought, the length and severity of which this country had never known before. After hours of wakefulness, I fell into a troubled sleep, lulled by a. gently rising breeze. I was awakened late in the morning by aloud cry. John was sitting up. He pointed a trem- bling finger towards the west. I stared, then began to shudder from head to foot. Our whole world was ablaze. The little cool- ing breeze had become a hot, fierce gale and was urging the big forest fire to our destruction. We were cut off from the lake, and our doom was sealed. 'Quickl' cried practical John. 'There is no time to lose. Get into the canoe. If the stream leads to a lake, we shall be saved.' I managed to rise and seat myself in the canoe, then I fell insensible. When I came to, we were already in a much wider stream, and going along swiftly without the aid of paddles. Before telling you anything more, I want to say our canoe was made of asbestos and was very similar to this one. To continue with my story, the stream had become quite broad and was taking a decided down-hill slant. We were ap- proaching a sharp bend in the river, which hid from sight every- thing beyond it. CLet us get out of the canoe, professor, before the current becomes too strong.J 26 THE HANOVERIAN Carried around the bend like a shot, we were borne swiftly towards a huge cave and entered its mouth at a terrific rate of speed. In a few moments we were plunged into deepest darkness. We sped into a vast hallway, the distant heights of which dripped unceasingly. We were soon drenched to the skin and our canoe covered with a fine beady moisture. Every moment the air became hotter. In the distance we could hear a humming sound, which burst into a loud roar right over our heads, as we were borne into a narrower passageway. 'That is the forest fire.' said John. For half an hour or so we kept on our course hearing moan- ings and rumblings all around us. Ahead we could see a faint red glow, and hear the rush of falling water. That glow became a lurid bar, slanting across our path. We shot over a little fall and found ourselves precipitated towards-Oh God! shall I ever forget that sight I-Hell's own river, dreadful river of fire, sucking and smacking its horrible lips to receive us. Not one hundred yards ahead the cool waters struck the fire in a cloud of steam. Inhaling the gases was be- coming every moment more piercingly painful. Suddenly I fainted. When I came to, I found myself sliding down a radiant, lurid river. Black scum gathered around the prow of our boat. Far ahead, I could see the rounding billow of a giant cat- aract, plunging down with a hollow roar into the heart of the second crater of V mountain. For you see, we had entered the side of the big mountaing the unusual season and dreadful forest fire had awakened the old sleeping dragon, whose warning growls we began to hear as we were leaving the vast hall-ways. We had rushed headlong into the stream of lava, racing down its former course from the first to the second crater. In a few seconds, we would be hurled over the cataract to death. The canoe was gaining speed. I called to John, but he was lying back, his eyes closed in death. A few feet more and- 'We are going over the cataract! We living, are cast into the fiery pit! Oh God-!' A confused mummur arose around meg soft cool water was at my lips. I opened my eyes and saw before me, the old school building, blazing with fire. 'Where is John?' I whispered, but I already knew the answer. I have finished my story. THE HANOVERIAN 27 BOOKMARKS It was early spring in Hempstead. The business of the small down-town bookstore was dull, accounts were due, and Bookey Sam was having a hard time trying to raise sufficient funds to keep his business out of the hands of a receiver and bankruptcy. Sam was the slim and tortoise shell glasses type of a man with little ambition and a firm belief that a man running a book- store does not have to exert himself to keep his customers. In his opinion, they should just come to him if they wished to pur- chase books. An absent minded old gentleman came to the store early one morning. Sam looked at him and decided that perhaps he might be able to please him. What can I do for you this morning, sir ? he asked. Well, I should like to purchase something for my daughter, who has just left for college. Perhaps you have something that would interest her ? Do you think that she would be interested in travels or a good biography? Those two shelves are full of books on travel- right in that corner. Perhaps you might find something there that you would like. So saying, Sam again sat at his desk and busied himself with his accounts. After poking around for an hour or so and deranging nearly half of the two shelves of books, the old gentleman came to Sam's desk. I think that possibly a pair of beads, a trinket, or a ring of some sort would do better anyway. said he. I am so sorry for the trouble I have caused you. I may be back later. Then he hurriedly left the bookstore. An hour passed, uneventfully as usual. Sam was besieged with a bit of the blues. A young man came into the store bursting with excitement. Has an old man with white hair and a grey coat been in to look at some books ? Why yes, answered Sam. I guess he couldn't find any- thing to please him. Would you please show me the books he was looking at? Sam was amazed. No one had ever shown such interest in his books before. Surely, he was looking at those books on the second and third shelves in that corner, right over there. 28 THE HANOVERIAN The young man took each book and opened it carefully, right before Sam's eyes a small envelope fell out of each one. What does this mean?', asked the bewildered Sam. Well, you see it's this way, the young man replied. This old gentleman is pretty clever. We've at last caught him with the goods. We've been after him for two years. He has been smuggling dope into this country and we have been on his trail and I have been following him all day. Aha, I see. Quite clever, eh ? said Sam as the importance of the capture in his little bookstore dawned on him. I was so busy trying to straighten out my accounts that I did not take any notice of him at all. I will have to take these books as evidence. I guess that I can take them all in my car. By the way I represent the Federal Narcotic Squad. Here are my credentials, the young man in- formed Sam as he handed him some papers. An immense re- ward is offered by a drug syndicate? Sam testified in court as to the actions of the old man. Since all of the old travel books which had been on his shelves for years had been purchased for evidence, he received 3250. clear proiit. Sam's debts were settled, publicity brought business. N ot such a bad World after all, thought Sam as he cheer- dusted books. Marjorie 727. MOTHER NATURE'S WORK The apple tree is a beautiful sight With its starlike blossoms of pink and white. Old West Wind made the branches weep, And stole its beauty with many a sweep. The petals fell like fieecy snow Then slowly leaves began to show, Before September morning dews, There were apples of green and rosy hues. After the fruit the crisp leaves fell Drifting and whirling in each little dell. By Christmas tide the tree was bare Mother Nature shows her care With lovely touches, to bring us cheer Throughout the seasons of the year. Edna Sangster, '29. THE HANOVERIAN 29 A PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE The principal of McDurfee High School sat at his desk, fingering squares of white, yellow, blue and pink paper. A frown passed across his tired face. With a sigh he gathered up the squares, placed them in the file basket, mentally making this re- mark- Two hundred dollars odd, where is the money coming from Y Taking his hat from the stand he walked slowly out of the office, shoulders drooped and his face registering disappoint- ment. Rhoddy Blaine, coming out of the Senior room, saw it all and knew something had gone wrong with Mr. Gilmore. Yes, she just knew something had. She stood still a second watching him, then hurried along to the Office to finish some filing for he be- loved principal. Picking up the wire basket she carried it over to the files and with deft fingers placed the papers in their proper places. Bills, bills, bills! What could they be for? None of her business but she just couldn't help noticing them. A. A. equipment, trans- portation, constabulary service. Quite a bunch! And then Rhoddy Blaine's fingers snapped. She knew just what was the trouble with Mr. Gilmore. It was those old A. A. bills. And then all in a Hash she remembered-the boys and girls wouldn't stay for play rehearsal last night on account of the forest fires, and tonight they had begged of to go to the game. No rehearsing meant a poor show and that play had been planned as a means of putting across the A. A. program for the year and it was coming off in two weeks. Mighty mean, mused Rhoddy. Rhoddy's mind worked like a whirlwind when she wanted it to. Back went the basket on the principal's desk, ting-a-ling went the telephone and click, click, click went Rhoddy's stacatto voice interrupted only by more ting-a-lings. Then silence. Back to her locker, hat in hand and homeward bound hurried a radiant Rhoddy. f The Midget oifered a prize to the student who submitted the best ending for this story. Katherine Townsend received the prize.J A PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE-Concluded Very early next morning, Rhoddy hurried into the office, greeting the principal with a happy, Good morning, Mr. Gil- 30 THE HANOVERIAN more. Before I do any work I'm going to ask you a question. Until after the school play has been staged, isn't it possible for the busses to leave at three o'clock in the afternoon instead of half-past one? That would give about an hour more every night for rehearsals and two weeks from now, when the dress-rehears- als come, no one will have to walk home. The other pupils ought not to object for they can take the Junior High busses, which leave only twenty minutes later, they ought to do it for the sake of the Association. Extra time for rehearsals won't do much good, Rhoddy, said Mr. Gilmore, when those taking part are not willing to stay after school. But I have a plan, cried Rhoddy. Several of the girls, and two of the most popular boys in school are going to help me put it across. We are going to make a success of this play and We want to have more time for rehearsals. Take a look at our sign out here. Mr. Gilmore followed her excited steps, not because he had any hope in new ideas, but just to please his young secretary. He glanced at the big sign. Then he opened and closed his eyes in astonishment. His old-time contagious smile lit up his face, he broke into a hearty, happy laugh, uttering the one word, Great 1 Rhoddy quivered with delight. Don't you think our plan will succeed, even if we demand a longer and harder period of rehearsing? she asked with shining eyes. If you can put this across, it will lift a great load off my shoulders, said Mr. Gilmore, gratefully. I think that matter about the busses can be arranged. In an hour, the whole school was buzzing with surpressed excitement. Groups of pupils went the rounds of about a dozen signs, all different. One of them read as follows: JOIN THE McD. H. S. A. A. TAKE THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE TO THE SCHOOL. BOOST THE PLAY! Give application for admittance to Rhoddy Blaine before Friday. Initiations will be held Saturday night in Assembly hall. COME ONE! COME ALL! DON'T STALL! GIRLS! Bring one old broom for Saturday night- THE HANOVERIAN 31 with a string attached to it, one ladies' hat and any babies' clothes you can find. BOYS! Bring a bottle, a spoon, and oh yes! bring mice-we furnish chairs for the ladies! On Monday, the MCD. H. S. A. A. will show you how the interior of a butcher's shop ought to look and will sell you all kinds of rare meats. In the basement-first room to the right. Dolly Dotson and Goofy Russell will be in charge. At 3 O'clock every afternoon, REFRESHMENTS will be served to those taking part in the School Play. For further details see Mavie Walker, Pusher-in-Chief. By Friday Rhoddy had received applications from nearly the whole school. And oh! what a wild time those children had Saturday night. It was rumored that the actors of the play had a speed contest in learning their parts. The School Song was sung a dozen times. And last of all, just before the refreshments and dancing, Mr. Gilmore was brought in, blindfolded, and was initiated by the whole crowd. On Monday, the Butcher Shop was opened. At the back of the room, against the wall, four old brooms and five dead mice fthe relics of Saturday nightl were strung. Flowers were on the window sills, on the counters, on the floor, in the cupboard- everywhere. Long streamers decorated the room. Ice cream, cake and candy were being sold at one counter by Dolly, who was wrapped in her father's rain coat. And the grab box, in which Saturday night's baby-clothes could be seen, and the more sub- stantial refreshments were taken care of by Goofy Russell, who held an umbrella over his head. In a Butcher Shop ! Don't you sell 'hot dogs' here ? asked one of the boys. Sure thing! said Russell, hurrying into an adjoining cham- ber. Tell Rhoddy to have a 'hot-dog' sign put up, if you see her, added he, as he returned with a steaming frankfurter. Rhoddy's idea was extremely successful. Everyone was anxious to help. Mr. Gilmore was able to make his program still more attractive with some new songs to be sung between' the acts by the Glee Clubs. One of the girls, who, before, had refused to help, now offered to give a solo danceg another promised to sing. All the time the Butcher Shop was making money with the cake, candy, and the grab-box donated by the members of the McD. H. 332 THE HANOVERIAN S. A. A. Everything was going like a Well-oiled clock. It is need- less to say the play was a huge success. Monday night, the MCD. H. S. A. A. held its farewell party Which, however, turned out to be a rejuvenating party. Mr. Gil- more, on being asked to make a farewell speech, rose and said, Pm not going to make a farewell speech to-night, I'm :going to urge you to keep up the good work-- The school cheered. I think this organization is a wonderful thing. It's -created more school spirit and cooperation than I could have made with a hundred speeches! I sincerely hope you all agree with me in this matter. The success of the play was due- At this men- tion of the play, his voice was drowned by another burst of ap- plause. After a few moments of deafening uproar he continued, The success of this play was due, not to the McD. H. S. A. A., not to me, but to the instigator and planner of the MCD. H. S. A. A. Bring Miss Rhoddy Blaine upon the platform and let's give her three hearty cheers for her splendid work. Her pledge of allegiance to the school was in actions not in Words. Hurray! Hurray! Hurray for Rhoddy Blaine! shrieked the mob in a transport of delight. No one had supposed that popular Rhoddy had been the guilty party. Make a speech, Rhoddy, make a speech l the voices clamored. Happy, blushing Rhoddy could not utter a Word. And now, said Mr. Gilmore, coming to her rescue, 'Tm going to show you the sign that made me fall in With Miss Blaine's idea! He drew forth a screaming caricature of a boy stuffing him- self. At the top was listed in black, tapering letters, Patronize the Butcher Shop. Join the Athletic Association's Help Association's Eats' Club. Katherine Townsend, '27 . I THE HANOVERIAN 33 SAND! I I observed a locomotive in the railroad yards one day, It was waiting in the round-house where the locomotives stay, Panting for the journey it was cooled and fully manned, It had a box the fireman was filling full of sand. II It appears that locomotives cannot always get a grip, It's so with us who run o'er life's slippery track, Panting for our journey, altho cooled and fully manned, We must see that we're provided with a good supply of sand. Wendall Magoun, '30. THE BACHELOR'S BABY One cold stormy morning in December, a young woman dressed in a dark suit pushed open the gate of a large mansion on 42nd street, New York. In her arms she carried a large bundle wrapped in brown paper. Reaching the steps she carefully set down the package, rang the bell, and hurried away. Roger Pendleton, a crusty old gentleman, having just spent a sleepless night on account of his gout, heard the bell ring. He knew that the butler was at the other end of the house, so he arose to answer the bell himself. He slipped on his bath-robe and descended the stairs. He opend the front door and saw only the dingy looking package. The butler was coming up the hall. Who rang that bell ? he demanded. There is nothing here but an old bundle. I do not know, sir. There was nothing there ten minutes ago when I unlocked the door. A Well, throw the package into the ash can, ordered Mr. Pendleton. The butler picked up the bundle. He was startled by a queer sound. What was that? asked Mr. Pendleton. I do not know, sir. The noise seemed to come from the package. Wait a minute and I will open it. Imagine the sur- prise of the two men when the package was opened and a small baby was revealed. The child began to cry. Call the police at once, ordered Mr. Pendleton. I can't keep the little fellow here. Let them put him into an orphanage where such as he belong? 34 THE HANOVERIAN Sir, probably the little thing is hungry. I shall ask the housekeeper to get the baby some milk before calling the police. The butler having left, Mr. Pendleton turned his attention to the half naked baby. The baby outstretched its tiny arms and turned its pleading eyes toward him. Touched by those eyes, he suddenly recalled his boyhood. He remembered well the care and tenderness he had received from his mother. He was alone in the world so he decided to keep this child to be a comfort to him, to be something to live for. By the time the butler arrived with the milk he had made definite plans for rearing the child. He was looking forward with much anticipation to the future. Russell Henderson, '28. . JACK The fun began when my brother who was spending his va- cation in New York wrote home and told me about Jack Thorn- ton, whom he had met. Henry praised him so much that we all wanted to meet him. I wrote a letter to Henry and told him to bring Jack out when he came home because we were very much interested in him. Henry promised saying, I certainly will bring him home. None of you can but help loving him the very first thing. I hope you'll be ready to give him a warm welcome. - 1 The day came when Henry and Jack were to arrive. Every- one was excited. The room Jack was to have was full of things sure to make a boy happy. We all went down to the station to meet them. When the trainvpulled in, out jumped Henry and Jack. ,EJ ack was everything Henry had promised he would be. He had lovely trusting brown eyes and soft curling hair-a noble fellow. For Jack is a full blooded Scotch Collie. Cecilia Nelson, '30. THE HANOVERIAN THE DROUGHT The sky was clearg that azure blue Which marks a summer day. The sun shone down on meadow brown, And on hilltop far away. The sighing trees raised up their heads As if in want for rain. The plants were drooping-almost deadg The flowers were the same. The brook was rippling very low, Its life semed all in vain. And every plant and flower and tree Was calling for the rain.

I remembered so clearly the meadow, So fresh and green in the spring And also the trees I lingered by To hear thebluebirds sing. In the evening the birds were silent, But before I went to sleep, I heard the frogs' high peeping Down in meadow and in creek. I was wandering once more through the meadow How oft I'd been there before! Here, a treasure deep in my heart, I buried forevermore. These remembrances came back to me, With their days so filled with pleasure Oh, how I longed to go back there! And find the hidden treasure. My heart was filled with many thoughts, Pure as the white of a dove, And I wondered at the treasure in the meadow For the hidden treasure was Love.

The social season of 1926-27 was ushered in with a Hallow- e'en Party under the auspices of the Hanover High School A. A. The party was a success financially and socially. A Christmas Party was enjoyed this year, by the students and teachers on the day before the Christmas vacation. Each class contributed a stunt . The faculty, as judges, awarded the 38 THE HANOVERIAN prize to the Junior Class whose entertainment was featured as a Radio Program. The pupils purchased presents for the children who are under the direction of Mrs. Olive Wheeler, school nurse. The many students who have participated in the various social gatherings at H. H. S. expressed a desire to hold a Farewell Party as the last event in the old building. On February twenty- fifth, the Senior Class entertained the entire school including the faculty, in the Assembly Hall. The teachers in turn spoke to us concerning the cooperativve work of the High School. Dancing and refreshments concluded our farewell to Hanover High School in the Town Hall. The Sophomore Class of H. H. S. held their annual Mas- querade on April first. Prizes in gold were awarded for the two best costumes. Burke's novelty orchestra of Brockton supplied music. The operetta The Gypsy Rover was presented by the Glee Clubs of the H. H. S. under the direction of Mrs. Pansy Stetson, music supervisor, on April 29. This operetta which has delightful music and efective scenery was presented entirely by students of the High School. The Senior Play Take My Advice was produced on March twenty-fifth under the supervision of Miss Isabelle Smith, our English teacher. This class had the honor of holding the first social function in Sylvester School auditorium. Much credit is due the players and coach for its splendid success. A Petite Cercle Francaise under the direction of Mrs. Eliza- beth J. Hatch, teacher of foreign languages in S. H. S. has been formed recently in the second year French Class. The Club meets on Friday. Games are enjoyed and lively conversation carried on entirely in French. The penalty for anyone who speaks a sen- tence in English is to conjugate a French verb. Naturally there is not much English spoken. The Cercle Francaise members also re- ceive Le Petit J ournal , a paper published for French students. Reports and intelligence tests from these papers afford much in- terest as well as instruction. The Club is preparing to present a French Play at some future assembly. A successful innovation at the High School this year is a form of Student Government, introduced and sponsored by Miss Isabelle Smith. The oflicers of the Student Government Associa- tion consist of a President, Vice-President, Chairman of Moni- tors, Council Members from each class and a Board of Monitors. THE HANOVERIAN 39 These oiiicers are elected by the student body. The form is sim- ilar to that of a Representative Democracy. Our Constitution will be printed in pamphlet form and a copy will be presented to each student. This organization has done good work this year and is striving to become stronger, that it may give greater service next year. The Seniors have sold ice cream, tonic and candy throughout the year.

Extra suits had to be purchased for our squad had almost doubled since last year. The squad practiced diligently under Coach Orcutt. Hanover 0-Stoughton 19 First game opened with Stoughton High. The day was ex- tremely warm and our boys were heavy and therefore unable to show the pep that Stoughton did. Hanover 7-Braintree 6 The second game was played at Hanover with Braintree. This was a snappy contest from beginning to end. Braintree scored in the first half but were unable to get the point after the touchdown was gained. Hanover rallied in the second half and put the ball over for a touchdown. The educated toe of Captain Studley decided the game when he kicked over a pretty drop kick. Hanover 46-Duxbury 0 On October 9 we played Duxbury. It was a one-sided game, Duxbury being unable to get started. Earl Wells and,Gordon Bray kept ripping their line from all angles. Hanover 0-Rockland 0 October 15 we journeyed over to Rockland. The boys of both teams fought hard to get a score but were unable to, although both sides threatened each other's territory. Hanover 0-Kingston 19 Kingston came to Hanover and gave us a good trimming. The reason for that was that several members of the team had been injured in a past game. This changed some of the players' positions and so they confused the signals several times. Carroll Studley our flashy end played full-back but was knocked out during the game. He seemed to be the only man who could make a good gain. Hanover 13-Duxbury 19 Hanover played Duxbury October 30. Duxbury played on their home field and showed improvement since their last game 44 THE HANOVERIAN :.,....

They defeated the Gold and the Blue. John Davis scored for Hanover but Duxbury came back and got one touch- down too. Bray, Hanover's half-back put another one over, but Duxbury also put two more over, thus winning the game. Hanover 6-E. Bridgewater 0 Hanover played East Bridgewater on November 6. This was a close contestg both teams being evenly matched. But with our swift-footed Gillette and husky Bray we put the ball over for a touchdown. . Hanover 0-Kingston 13 November 12 Hanover played at Kingston. Hanover had its fighting spirit up and the game was a hot one till the very last minute. John Davis, our end, fractured his collar bone in the early part of the game and was unable to continue in the other games. Kenneth Lovell, our center, stopped many a line plunge through center. Freddie Nelson and Eddie Lundberg also played a whale of a game, opening large holes in the Kingston line. Bray and Studley starred in the backfield. Hanover 31-Cohasset 0 November 16, Hanover played Cohasset. Most of our second team was put in the second half. Everyone seemed to wade through the line. Hanover 0-Canton 20 Hanover journeyed over to Canton November 20. The field was extremely muddy and our boys were unable to show their speed. Gillette and Wells played well in the backfield, Russell Monk and Jack Kellow playing excellently in the line. Hanover 0-Alumni 7 The last game was on Thanksgiving morning with the Alumni. It ended in a fizzle and although both teams fought hard, Hanover High could not stand the pounding of the older alumni. Neither team scored till the last quarter when Dave Studley of the Alumni .blocked a kick and fell on it. Armitage starred for Hanover. The following lineup was used in most of the games: le C. Studley, lt A. Shats, lg E. Lundberg, cg G. Armitage, re J. Kellow, rt R. Monk and C. Gleason, rg K. Lovell and J. Yusca- vitch, fb E. Wells,qb Capt. Studley or R. Henderson, rhb D.

We haven't much time left for many regular games but we can make a good start for a good team next year. Mr. Hatch has kindly consented to coach us and with his instruction and encourage- ment we ought to become champions. It hasn't been decided where we shall practice this year, but next year, the girls will have their new base-ball diamond, marked out on the grounds of Sylvester High. Another feature of girls' athletics this spring will be track, scheduled for from the ninth to the twenty-first of May. This year, our coach and principal, Mr. Orcutt, introduced inter-class basket-ball games, which in many ways was an ex- cellent thing to do, for besides furnishing the classes with health- ful exercise and practice in the art of co-operation with others, it created a fine class spirit and revealed much new material for next year's team. To the great disappointment of the. lower classes, the Seniors carried off the championship with flying colors. We all hope the inter-class game will become a custom in our new school. The Senior Class line-up was as follows: Katherine Town- send, captain, Marjorie Sickoll, Elisabeth Snell, Bertha Magoun, and Eleanor Jenness. The Junior line-up was: Charlotte Stuart, captain, Ella Oldham, Helen Graham, Esther Hansen, and Louise Turner. The Sophomore Class line-up was: Christina Hansen, cap- tain: Edna Sangster, Mary Wells, Mildred Sides and Marjorie Pratt. The Freshman Class line-up was: Verena Guptill, captaing Millie Wells, Blanche Lemish, Madeline Merritt, Phyllis Studley, and Marjorie Haynes. Under the capable leadership of our coach, Mr. Orcutt, the girls of the basket-ball team proved very successful, both in their excellent playing and in their fine spirit of co-operation. The line- up was as follows: Katherine Townsend, captain: Elisabeth Snell, manager, Christine Hansen, Charlotte Stewart, Millie Wells, Marjorie Sickoll, Verena Guptill, Ella Oldham and Blanche Lemish. p 56 THE HANOVERIAN g You Cannot Afford To Burn Hard Coal or Oll Until You Have lnvestlgated !
