A few have a faint idea, and I have heard at least one, myself, laugh openly at the idea of our trying to print a small weekly newspaper. Of course this hurt- maybe more than that person really intend- ed it to-ibut it is just these little things that make life so hard for the serious student. It is a fact that some people are so pessimistic that they think that the student benefits only financially from these social activities. This sounds absurd and you who know pass it by with a smile and think no more of itg but it stays im- pressed and fresh on the stud'ent's mind and makes him wonder if his efforts are worth while after all. Hodgdon High is very grateful for those who have subscribed for the paper or put an advertisement in it. It helps a lot-more than just the few cents you paid us-it shows the real spirit of the people of Hodg- don. This is not praise or a pat on the back, it is a statrnent made by one who has had a great deal to do with people of all kinds4Principal Lambert, of Houlton. He said' that if a small town of only 1200 could build and maintain a four year high school there must be splendid spirit in Hodgdon, and that there was no getting away from that fact. Take that for what it is worth. Most large High Schools publish a school paper every month, a few of the larger ones with an enrollment of 2000-3000 publish one every week. So you can see that, as we publish one every week, and have only about ninety enrolled we are not doing anything common-on the contrary it is very unusual. Even some of the students think that the publication of this paper of little im- portance. I, personally, think that it is a splendid activity, to be rated with basketball or baseball. It lets the public know what nunnuguununu-nun-un:unnnunnnnnuuuuuununnuu is going on in their school, what the results of athletic enterprises are. It also gives the student a chance to put to practical use his acquired knowledge of English, History, and Business Methods, as well as to try out such literary gifts as may be present. It is hoped that next year we will pub- lish the Tatler the whole of the year. We hope you will support us next year as you so generously have done this school period. You may be sure that we shall do our best to give you something in return. Ellery Anderson, '32 HOW TO MAKE A SUCCESS It is natural that everyone should want to make a good living. Everyone wants to have plenty of money to take care of him- self and to live comfortably all his life. He wants to live well when he is too old to work and to have plenty of money to do right by his family. In order for one to do this he must do three things: First-He must choose Xa good career. He should choose a good job which he likes, one he knows he will not tire of. He should work hard and do all in his power to make his career successful. Second-He should try to develop for him- self a good personality. This means you should win, if you can, the respect of your fellowmen. Do all you can to get the atten- tion and admiration of other people. Take, for example, two men who have been pals ever since they were children. They have graduated from High School and College together. One starts im-mediately to work himself into a good position. He works hard and makes a success of his career, living well in his old age with plenty of money to educate his children and take care of himself for the rest of his life. The Aurora Page Five The second man does not bother to develop a good personality and choose for himself a .good career. He is easily discouraged and does not stay at one job very long. He has to work hard and just make a living, and that is all. He has to work when he is old, because he did not do the proper things to make his career successful. One can develop a good personality by working hard for it, and he is bound to win in the end. Third-Persevere, which means to carry your plans to the last notch. Do not give up after you have started. If all does not go your way, do not get disgusted and quit. Work all the harder to make your plans as you :wanted them to be. N-ever get discouraged and give up. You will do the same thing in the next job you try and' then, where will you be? Never give up, take this as your motto and stick to it and you are bound to win. Chester L. Warman, '32 SYSTEM What is System? Can a bridge building contractor when he begins to build his bridge, suspend a bolt in mid-air over a river and from that one bol-t build his bridge? No. He begins by building a foundation from which extends his bridge until the bridge is completed by the replace- ment of the king-bolt. His men working for him are not at work one day and drunk the next. The work is systematically divided among the workers. Under the Contractor are sub-contractors, who specialize in that certain work. Under the sub contractors are Supers, who have in turn under them, foremen. The Foremen in their turn have control of four or five bosses, It is these men, the bosses, who have control of the real working gang. And yet they are all closely united. But all the higher officials are absolutely necessary, in that they have the brain power and fore-thought to keep everything in their mind-in a systematic way. Land is a very precious thing on the Broadway of Nevw York. Time also is precious. A contractor for a large building on Broadway cannot waste time. As soon as the first few floors have been erected in steel, the masons start to work at the bottom, meanwhile the steel gang still mounts higher. As soon as the masons finish a floor the interior workmen step in and go to work. Many times before even the steel gangs have finished their work the first few floors of a building are ready for occu-pation. It all goes to show you just what the six lettered word System is. System! l System ! ! It is a cry which has been heard round the earth many and many a time. One had but to raise his eyes to the heavens at night and there he sees the best illustration of system that man can ever look upon. Countless thousands upon millions upon billions upon trillions upon quadrillion-s of stars, of suns, of planets, of solar systems, of things that man can never hope to know about. Count- less miles of space, so vast that man cannot even begin to speculate. And yet this seem- ingly uncontrollable mass, is intricately controlled by-well-only God could con- trol such a marvelous display of matter. Our own solar system, which is but a speck in the great universe has been going on so far as we know for over a billion years, and will no doubt go on for many more. Yet our earth has not lost the smallest part of a second in time, not one trillionth of the smallest part of a milli- meter in distance. Is it not astounding that when we try to sit as still as possible we are still moving in three distinct directions at a comparatively very fast rate of speed? We are moving with the rotation of the earth at the equater at the rate of 1000 miles per hourg around the sun at the rate of 16 miles per second, and the whole solor system is mov- ing sovmewhere out in space at the rate of 18 miles-per second. Yet it can all be summed up by the word system, The present site of New Orleans was and is but a bog to which there is evidently no end in depth. Yet the first settler began Page Six The Aurora a city which was to be one day one of the leading commercial cities of the World. How was it done? Every year in the spring that bog was covered over with a layer of water from six to twelve feet thick. The city site is at the highest point only twelve feet above sea level while one third of its area is two feet below. The city is there today. How was it done? System ! Let me explain in detail: ' At the end of the seventeenth century Spain began to crumble. Louisiana was returned to France and Napoleon, dreading that Louisiana would again fall into the hands of the English contrived it transfer to the United States. Fiercely those people of the old regime living in New Orleans opposed the exchange. Foreign tyranny had lost its grip upon the river and, like a flood undamimed above them, Kentucky's flat-boats came pouring down to New Orleans, tobacco, grain, flour, pelts, lumber. Merchants found themselves making money hand over fist. Dwellings had' to be built to house the people to the city. Drainage had to be promoted. Ah, that was it. Drainage. How on earuth were they to drain the city? The small streams flow away from the river, not tow-ard it. It sounds quite simple. Remember however that the banks of the Mississippi are higher than the ground behind them. How could New Orleans be drained when the river stands at its maximum twenty feet higher, and the sea is six feet higher than the approximate level of the city? Yet both sea and river must be kept out of town. The people threw up ridges of dirt. Unsystematic. Puny little barriers that the river broke in 1780, 1785, 1791, and 1799. The people gradually began to com- bine with each other in wfar against the common enemy. The Federal Government began to combine with the people of New Orleans and the Valley. By solving one problefm they intensified the other. A continuous ring of embankment around the town had converted New Orleans into a gigantic saucer out of which no drainage could flow. Neither can the moisture sink into a supersaturated earth. Every gallon of water must be lifted over the saucer's rim. To imagine the tropical cloudburstg some- times as much as three inches .per hour, a yearly average of five feet. On the bl-ack night of April 15-16, 1927, the sky itself seemed to open, the bottom dropped out, and a deluge came from above. Thirteen inches of rain in thirteen hours. Streets be- came navigable rivers, with the mighty Mississippi attacking the levee. New Orleans handled every drop of that inside water by means of its pumping system. How? It was just stated. System. Another victory for System was the de- struction of Yellow Death. Men are alive now who may remember standing at the door of America's finest hotel and smelling the stench of its sewage that meandered lazily along an open gutter. Refuse could not go elsewhere. There were no under- ground pipes, and no chance to lay them. Odors from disease breeding filth suffocated a town of ten thousand. No wonder the death rate there climbed to 180 per thou- sand. No wonder that malaria alone killed 156 people per 100,000. When the Yellow fever came on, the town had to be absolutely closed. No human being was permitted to enter. Boats were shooed away from the landing place and north-bound trains rushed through at full speed. In the trade territory of New Orleans no travel went or came: not a com- modity was moved. Wholesalers called in their drummers. Business came to a com- plefte standstill. Meantime American investigators were patiently following the trail and studying the phenomena of Yellow Death. Heroes sacrificed their lives to demonstrate that infection was carried solely by a mosquito. Not only that-they narrowed down their research to a sin-gle kind of mosquito, the female of the species Stegu-myia fasciata. When our investigators caught Mrs. Stegumyia with the goods, they screened every yellow-fever patient so that she could stick her weapon into no more poison.

They made a thorough job and Yellow Death was routed. Since 1906 not a single case of Yellow Fever has developed on our continent. No human is perfect.

One cannot accomplish anything for the good of humanity or for the good of himself, without the use of system. Let us use and think well of system. Let us build our lives on a foundation as the Bridge Builder. Let us use system in regard to the cultivation of our lives. Let our associates, both people and books, be the steel frame- work of our lives. Let our lives be con- trolled, as the great universe is controlled- by God. J. C. Jenkins, '32 WDW e ts: Q?

To the shortest path and the longest lane there comes an end g inevitable change brings the sad word 'farewellf We leave our school with a deep appre- ciation of the advantages it has given us. Education is capitalg by investing it wisely we may become factors in the world's pro- gress. Modern education seeks to give a three fold development and send forth students upright in character, vigorous and healthy in body, alert and trained in mind, that they may give to life the combined efforts of heart, head and hands. It is with pride that we receive our diplomas of graduation from a school that has given us this up-to-date training. We leave our school with a high regard for the dignity of labor, the toil of the hands as well as the head. All labor which tends to supply man's needs, to increase his happiness, or to elevate his nature is honor- able. Labor is the mighty magician who advances civilization through the channels of art, science, music, and inventions. It is the hope of the boys and girls of -the class of 1931 that we may join the ranks of the real workers on the field of action, for the life giving power of education was intended to fit us not for cultivated leisure, but for honorable occupation. Members of the School Board: To you we would' express our thanks for the privileges you have given us through our school, and for the courtesies extended to our class. Our school has been to us the Bank of nn----nu-nn-uns-mnvnnun-unn-nunInu1nnun-un-nnnnnn-.2 Knowledge on which we have drawn for funds. Years of the highest endeavor alone can repay the debt we owe J our Alma Mater. We give you our I. O. U. and pro- mise to repay these funds by passing on to the world the best efforts of which we are capable. Members of the Faculty: In behalf of the class of 1931 I would say that we bid you farewell with sincere regret. Your enthusiasin and kindly interest in our advancement has lightened the gloom of lessons and made classroom work a plea- sure. You have made our school mean more to us than mere walls of architectureg you have invested it with life and endowed it with the solicitous love of a real Mater. We shall ever look back with pleasure to the profitable hours We have spent under your instruction, and we hope the equipment of mind and character which you have labored faithfully to give us may be used to your honor and credit. Classmates: Though the time for fare- well is at hand and we shall meet no more as Seniors, let us not break the ties that have bound us during the happy years of work at Hodgdon High. Though we may be scattered east and west, on the prairies of the north or beneath the sunny groves of the south, let us still be loyal, devoted memlbers of the Class of 1931. Though there be a wide divergence in our thoughts and occupations, let us still be joined by the memory of these, the most joyous years of our lives. Though far from these scenes, may there never be a time when we cannot, in memory hold an reunion in our Alma Mater. Classmates, let us resolve anew amid these happy scenes, to fare forth bravely and so live that we may be proud of each other and that Hodgdon High may be proud of all of us. Let us be patriots. The young people of today hold in their hands the future of our country. There is a great need for men and women who are The Aurora Page Nine willing to sacrifice their selfish desires for the good of their community and fellowmen. We need citizens who live up to the golden rule seven days of the weekg who lift a hand to the other fellow. Now, in every address that I have heard or read, the graduating class is made to believe that the world is their oyster which with their sword they shall open , and pick and choose that which they desire. Then I have watched the true results, and in almost every case, the dreams and hopes were un- realized, and the lofty castles reared with so much confidence went tumbling to the ground. The great artist in embryo, need- ing only time and opportunity to become one of the world's masters, was shining as a sign painter in his native village. The future poet, or novelist, became a reporter on the daily paper. The great opera star was leading the village choir, the great pianisrt was given piano lesson at fifty cents an hourg the future actor was teaching school, the great toe-dancer was conducting a private dancing school, the interior d-e- corator was working in a candy factory, at the minimum wage, the potential movie actress was conducting a beauty parlor, and the civil engineer was glad to accept a job as plum4ber's assistant. Afnd so, one dreamer after another h-ad fallen from the fairy pinnacles upon which they had exalted themselves. But this is a too pessimistic view. Let us look at it from another angle and judge if these people were failures. Were they able to accept responsibility? The answer decides whether or not they were failures. There is another class of people needed by this country, and every other country. The kind who are willing to accept responsibility instead of running from it and shirking it the moment it con- fronts them. The schools, at this time of the year, turn- ing out thousands of supposedly well- equipped young people ready and willing to help th-e world along, if they can do it in exactly their own way. The head of any big working establishment of whatever class, will tell you that the hardest part of his business is the finding of young men and women of dependable character. He can easily find a hundred who will obey orders, where he can find one who will assume the responsibility of seeing that the orders are faithfully carried out. It is one of the evils of society that when troubles occur every one cries out, It is not my fault, I had noth- ing to do with it. There has been for this Class of 1931 and still is for the remaining classes, a wonder- ful opportunity to train one's self in this way. If every time we were placed in a responsible position we have carried out our duties, and urged and induced others to fulfill theirs, then we probably shall be successful in later life because we have been dependable in school life. I shall quote an old saying, It is good to bear the yoke in youth. May it be said of every member of the Class of 1931 that he or she has never proved recreant to a trust. Let us pay our debt to our school by years of noble living. Then, here is a smile for the future, And for our parting, a sigh, Here's a God speed and bon voyage, And to all a fond good bye. John E. Oakes '31 'THE SALUTATORY Members of the School Board, Faculty, Mr. Superintendent, Classmates, Ladies, and Gentlemen: The class of 1931 extends to you a most cordial greeting and welcomes you to this, the laying of the final milestone along the journey of high school. For four long years-yet speedy as we look back upon their passing-we have work-ed for and looked forward to these closing scenes in our career as students of high school. For four years our little fleet has been sailing calmly in the harbor, riding the ripples of school work and pleasure, basking in the sunshine of our teachers' commendation and occasionally fretting in the clouds of their wrath. Today we weigh our anchors and begin the voyage into the sea of action where each one of us must steer his craft toward the :goal cf the future. Page Ten 'The Aurora The flowers massed so beautifully in our honor, tell us that it is Juneg yet to us, it is also New Year's Day, that ushers us from the old months of school activities into the new life of broader endeavor. We thrill with appreciation of the benefits you have showered upon us through our school and its capable instructors. True education draws out and develops all the human facultiesg it wakes the heed- less youth to the fact that life has a work for him to perform. Before us stretch the years of our further education and the d7u-ties of life. The future looks bright and the rosy dreams of youth are full of promise. We go forward to meet our obligations firm in the belief that the lessons of our school life have laid the fo-undaftion for future success. The influence of our school days has left a lasting im- pressiong it has helped to mold our charactersg it will be instrumental in shap- ing our destinies, so we thank you, as we welcome you to the scenes of triumph for enabling us to successfully complete the work of high school. Of the many inventions, fast developing ind-ustries, and great branches bf business in which one must indulge for life work, there is, in my mind, one which I have chosen as my subject, because of its swift develop- ment, the economlic revolution it has brought about, and its steadily mounting popularity as a commercial and industrial benefit. From prehistoric time all down through the ages man has looked upon the flying bird with envy. The earliest legends were filled with impossible accounts of man fly- ing through the air, and as time passed these stories grew, often giving the details of the supposed flights. Whether these legends are pure myths, the results of the imaginations of the early birds, well rounded out from telling and retelling, or whether they had their be- ginnings in man's early experiments in try- ing to take to the air, cannot be deter- mined. However, there is much in many of these stories that comes under the range of possibility. To Leonardo da Vinci is attributed the invention of the parachute and helicopter which he had developed from the first basic principles of his own genius. As for the first lighter than air craft We must tum to Francesco Lana, who in the seventeenth century directed his energy and mentality to the construction of gas con- tainers made of thin copper from which he planned to exhaust the gas causing the contrivance to rise. Although the, whole principle was imipossible, yet many new versions concerning lighter than air craft were obtained by many such experiments. On June 5, 1783, a large crowd assembled at Versailles, France, to see the firsrt successful balloon ever constructed. The frame of this feat goes to the Montgolfer Brothers, who through their observation of natural objects and exiperiments with paper bags, developed the first airshilp to make a successful flight, carrying a rooster, a sheep, and a duck as the aerial passenger list. In enumerating the many inventors, scientists, and discoverers of the principles of aviation, one must not forget Dr. Samuel P. Langley who, although always unsuccess- ful in launching was the first to con- struct a motor driven plane -based on thoroughly sound principles. Just nine days following Dr. Langley's second trial flight which ended in the same manner as-the first had-by the breaking of the track from which it was launched, the Wright Brothers made their first power driven flight and the conquest of the air was completed. With the firsrt successful flight of the Wright Brothers the era of unlimited aerial development began, which was sched-uled to the end of time. Numerous flights were made by the dif- ferent inventors and aviators of the many countries abowt 1910, but not until the World War was the real value of aviation revealed. ' The construction of many different models, the development of aerial photo- graphy and synchronization, a method of timing guns on the transmission in such a manner as to permit firing the guns be- tween the propeller blades were brought forward. l FACUIJTY LLeft to rightj Principal G. Stanley Everett, Miss Charlotte Jewett, ' Miss Mary Thrall, Mr. Herbert Libby The Aurora Page Eleven Since the war aviation has advanced steadily, especially in the commercial field. As evidence of this, we have in America the highly developed Air Mail Service. a number of passenger carrying lines, and an increas- ing number of firms and individuals using the air for rapid transportation of parcel goods. Europe has its large and ever increasing number of passenger lines meeting their schedules day after day in all kinds of weather in a way that rivals the railways, and with the added element of speed with its saving of time. The most discussed events that have taken place in aviation since the war, have been the numerous long flights, for the most part they have been successful, especially where proper preparations were made be- forehand, and have proved the reliability of the airplane far beyond the dreams of the early pioneers. With the conquering of the Atlantic by Lindbergh came the desire for scheduled flights carrying mail and passengers across the several oceans. This feat seemed impossible at first, but with the construction of airdromes and careful preparations for each flight it is deemed possible. Still another and even more original route is proposed between America and Europe, that is by flying along the Newfoundland Coast touching different Arctic Islands and circling down to England. Although these ideas are practical and seem quite possible, time will be the sole judge as to their safeness, benefits, and the proof of the ability of the airplane as an ocean carrier. Lewis E. Howard ADDRESS T0 UNDERGRADUATES This evening we are about to leave high school to go out into the world, not with our goal already gained, but with our goal be- fore usg and, Underclassmen, upon leaving, we, the class of '31, are leaving you some friendly words of advice. We know it will not be a hard task to do as well if not better than we have done. This school, Underclassmen, is just what you make it. Remember that school spirit is one of the essentials necessary in order to be a good representative of your high school. People regard our school by our actions on the street, at public gatherings and in our sports. Let us in all our activi- ties try to show real school spirit so that our school will stand high in public esteem. There are times when everything seems against us-everything in the world seems to go wrong-this is the time, Underclass- men, when loyalty will be your chief com- fort. If a student is loyal to his classmates and friends while at school he will be a friend worth having all through life and I you, who strike to reach it. Underclassmen, assure you we are all proud to have such a friend. E Another thing that is necessary, school- mates, is co-operation-co-operation with your faculty and with your fellow-students. Your teachers are helping you to the best of their ability and you must co-operate with them to get the most out of your school life. A school cannot go on without teachers neither can it go without pupils. So, to render perfect harmony, teachers and purpils must co-operate. Underclassmen, these years at high school are going to determine your character and attitude all through life. If you are an honest, faithful student, having the real school spirit you will become a loyal citizen and a credit to your school. On the other hand, if your attitude is care- less and your character becomes involved you are apt lto be a disgrace to all who know you. As we build our character let us try to build it so that wie will be an honor to our sc-hool. As we strive hard in all our undertakings th-ere is one secret word behind it all. That word is success. To succeed means to work hard, to keep struggling on no matter how difficult the path is and, in the end to re- ceive the reward, that is always waiting for youfi who strive to reach it. Underclassmen, I know many of you think as we do, that a high school education will be a great help to you socially. This is true and as you think of this remember it is to your parents, Page Twelve The Aurora your school board, and your superintendent, that you owe this great opportunity. In return for all this you strive to be a success and a credit to them. Freshman, you are now fully entered ulpon your high school life, you have passed one year here and are striving for the same goal we have reached this evening. You have before you the three best years of your life. As you rise from class to class We hope you will love and' honor your high school as the class of '31 would have you. We hope as you 'pass from year to year you will be able to carry your class through with laurels and be an example to the classes below you. S-ophomores, we hope that you will leave behind you all unworthy habits and set a standard worthy of Juniors. Juniors, it is you who are to advance in our footsteps and hold high the honors of the school. It is your duty to advise and help the underclassmen. You must set a worthy example for them to follow and keep the school spirit always fresh in their minds. And' now schoolmates all, the class of '31 bids you FAREWELL. Ena McLean. MACHINES AND UNEMPLOYMENT fOrationJ As unemployment cannot be dealt with until its various causes are understood, it may be worthwhile to suggest that the re- placement of men by machines has more to do with the matter than is commonly sup- posed. When various machines came into use it was thought by historians that they heralded cheaper goods, a higher standard of living, and more employment for all. Up to the outbreak of the world war people were satisfied to accept these generaliza- tions. Bult, now I think thc matter must be reconsidered. It is very true that machines are rapidly displacing human labor. The United States Government has re- cently published some very remarkable figures in this connection. Between 1919 and 1929 the total quantity of goods manu- factured increased by 58.5 per cent. But the number of persons emrployed in the factories decreased by 5 per cent. In the first year after the war 9,000,000 persons were earn- ing wages in American factories. Ten years later their numbers had fallen to 8,550,000. From year to year the numbers kept decreasing and more workers were looking for employlmen-t, but the factories could not take care of them. It is estimated that in 1929 two millions people were avail- able for employment in the factories but had to look for work elsewhere. The machine had ousted them. The American wage earner in 1929 was probably better off than any working man has ever been in American history. Yet, when Mr. Hoover was elected president labor was very highly paid, but the demand for it in manufacture was silently shrinking. The machine was cheaper, and the man could be dismissed. While trade remained good, this condition of labor attracted little attention and caus- ed no uneasiness. It was though-t that those wvhom the factories did not want could earn a living elsewhere, by doing various odd jobs for the well-paid wage-earners, or perhaps by going back to the land. But the sudden decline in trade revealed the seriousness of the labor situation. The closing of the factories meant that the sur- plus labor was destitute. If the numbers of the wage-earners are to diminish steadily with the development of machineryfand if the labor surfplus, dependent on the wage- earners, is to grow in proportion, we must expect the unemployment problem to be- come more menacing as the years go by. Let us look at this question from another viewpoint. We all know how many people have been out of work this year and that nearly every city has provided bread lines not because they are lazy, but simply because they are out of funds. No, these people are not lazy. Fathers of families out of work would give their right hands for jobs. For centuries men were poor because they did not know hour to produce enough. They had little machinery and they knew nothing about how to use steam or electricity. If crops failed in one region they did not have means of transportation to quickly bring in a surplus from more The Aurora Page Thirteen While in our day and told that children of ill-fed because their fathers have grown too much wheat. Mr. Daniel Willard recently delivered an address before the Wharton School of Finance and Commerce of the University of Penn. His subject was To Steal and to Starve. One of his criticisms is as follows: A system-call it what you will-under which it is possible for 5,000,000 01' 6,000,000 of willing and able-bodied men to be out of work and unable to secure work for months at a time, and with no other source of in- come, can not be said to be perfect or even satisfactory. On the contrary, it can be said to have failed in at least one very im- portant detail. I can think of nothing more deplorable than the condition of a man, able and anxious to work, but unable to secure work, with no resources but his labor, and perhaps with others even more helpless de- pendent ufpon him. Unless he is willing to starve and see those wfho justly look to him for support also starve, his only alternative is to seek charity and, failing in that, to steal. In closing I will venture to say that I think this situation can be managed in time. We can use machinery so that it will lighten labor for everybody and increase the number of good things we all can have instead of using it so that it 'makes un- emrployment for thousands and profit for a few. We can plan production and distribu-. tion so as to conquer both poverty and unemployment. It will require some very profound and well thought out changes in the way we own and manage the things we use. No education is worth much that does not help us face these problems. prosperous regions. generation, we are wheat farmers are Y! Madeline Herron. CLASS GIFTS Friends, teachers, and' fellow classmates. The cheerful duty of presenting the gifts tc. the members of my class has fallen upon me. And it is with the keenest of interest and with the greatest of joy that I wish to perform 1ny task successfully. It is no simple matter to select gifts appropriate to one's charming characteristics, nor is it an easy matter to please everyone in the giving of gifts. But throughout all time it has been always appropriate to present gifts to our loved ones, and it has also always been appropriate to receive such gifts as may be presenlted with the greatest of gusto and of smiles. Perhaps these gifts are somewhat small, but you must remember that it isn't the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the figlilt in the dog. With the presenting of each gift every member of the class sends his loyalty, life's friend-ship and peaceful memories, like as the beautiful sea gulls of the deep gracefully hover above a homeward bound ship. One day I heard a story, and it doesn't happen to be on a Scotchman, either. It deals more with the subject already men- tioned-Gifts. Kindly let me pass it along to you:- There is a lonely isolated island that lies in the blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea. Here once upon a time there lived a. lonely shepherd and his flock of sheep. He was not a learned man, neither was he a fool. By chance he had found a delightful painting that pictured the riches of kings, the grandeur of the ages, and the glories of the past all in one. Never in his life had he ever had the privilege to let gold coins trickle through his fingers. It was his sole ambition to see in reality, gold, silver, perfumes, jewelry, and rich mantles. Finally his chance came. It was like this. While singing to his flock one spring morning, his glance rested on a little flower that grew on the side of the hill. He ran towards it forgetting his sheep, and his own drift of thought for the moment. On reach. ing the flower he stopped to smell of its petals. And as he breathed the sweet breath of heaven so it seemed, he confessed to himself that nothing had been seen so beautiful and with such graceful lines be- fore. Whereupon he plucked it and put it in his long black locks. Immediately there was a slipping of the earth's crust, the creaking sound of rusty hinges, the falling of bolders, and of slipping sand rushed to' his ears. He saw a great door open up on Page Fourteen The Aurora the side of the hill. He was dumbfounded. This miracle wlas as strange as the flower itself. There was a time in his life when he would of turned and ran on an occasion like this. But experience had taught him to face dangers instead of running like a coyote from them. He picked up his long oak staff and ran towards the door, ready to lay low any foul thing that might come forth from the abyss. But nothing came, all was as quiet as before. Instead he saw things like he had seen in the picture years ago. Gold coin, casks of wine, silver belts, diamonds, pearls, and rich mantles covered the walls. He saw also costly clothing highly decorated with furs. The old shep- herd walked toward the door, and' 'went in. For minutes he stood' gazing at the sights, not knowing just what to do. Suddenly a voice cried out, Take what you want, but don't forget the best. Whereupon he drove his fists deep down into the coins, filled his shirt with perfumes, lace and gold. He broke open a keg of wine and drank deeply of the contents. He then rolled barrel after barrel out through the open door. He re- turned and carried out armfulls of per- fumes, jewelry silver coins and mantles. For two days' and nights he labored with beast like energy, until finally the chamber was almost empty. He was carrying out his last load when he heard the voice again cry, Take what you 'want but don't forget the best. Start- led he looked about hi-m, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets, the chamber looked bare for he had removed everything. Presently his eyes rested upon the flower that he had stuck in his hair, for in the excitement it had become loose and had fallen to the ground. The old sherpherd paid little or no attention to the flower but walked on towards the ope-n door. At the threshold he paused again and took one more glance around, seeing a pearl in the farthest corner he returned and picked it up. The voice that had urged him on said quietly, My good man, take what you want but don't forget the best. The shepherd gave a pigish laugh and continued, bearing his riches toward his pile of heaped treasures. As he walked, strange as it seems, the things that he was carrying seemed to melt out of his arms. Frightened, he stopped and looked all about him as he had done often in the past few days. He suddenly ran to a knoll and looked down a-t his wealth. A sad sight met his e-yes. All the wines, beauti- ful mantles, and priceless jewelry were vanishing before his very eyes. He turned and saw the giant iron door close as silently as death. All was lost, he wept bitterly. Then it was that he remembered the voice telling him not to forget the best. Ah, but it was too late. The iron door had been sealed, and the flower, his life, his hope, and the best of all, were buried forever from his sigwht. And so it is with these humble gifts, the best of good will, and the best of luck trail every gift. So cheerio, class.mates, and don't you forget to take the best, for re- member All that glitters is not gold. Robert Jenkins '31 HISTORY One bright September day twenty three green freshmen entered Hodgdon High. We held our heads high but not for long. The Sophomores announced one day that there would be a reception held for us. We were warned that if we wieren'-t there we'd know the reason why. We decided to go. We clung together like hair on a dog's back. 'Dhey dressed us up in green ribbons and made us do kiddish tricks until we began to think We were kids. Soon after this we had a class meeting and elected the following officers for the year: President, Leon Benny Vice-President, Bessie Lindsayg Secretary, Madeline Her- rong Treasurer, Eva McLean. Later in the year a speaking contest was held. Madeline Herron received first prize for girls and Lewis Howard received first prize for boys. We had began to l-earn the meaning of school spirit. We were more than pleased when Leon Benn received a letter for basketball. The second year wasnit as full of events as the first year. The Aurora Page Fifteen A class meeting was held and the follow- ing officers elected: President, Leon Benng Vice-President, Nellie McQuarrie9 Secretary and Treasurer, Bessie Lindsay. In the falliterrm it was announced that a speaking contest would be held between the freshmen and sophomores. Five were ch-osen to speak from our class. J oe' Jenkins received first prize, Lewis Howard received second, and Leon Benn received third. We refturned to school our junior year with a sunaller class. There were only five of our old Class of '31 returned, but we welcomed two new students--namely: Jack Oakes and Faye Johnson. A class meeting was held and the officers elec-ted, namely: President, Leon Benng Vice President, Madeline Herrong Secretary and Treasurer, Eva McLean. We dreaded the Junior Exhibition the most of anything this year. Everyone had to speak, Madeline Herron received first prize for girls and Lewis Howard received first prize for boys. Each student spoke well. A 'week before school closed we surprised the Seniors with a banquet at Cary's Mills Ten Room. The faculty, seniors and juniors were invited. We were sorry that Jack Oakes 'had the misfortune of burning him- self so he couldn't attend. A good time was reported by everyone. Our fourth year has been crowded with events. A class meeting was held' at the be- ginning of the year and class officers were chosen, namely: President, Jack Oakesg Vice President, Eva McLean3 Secretaryg Dorothy Londong Treasurer, Leon Benng News Council Reporters, Faye Johnson and Bob Jenkins. A baked bean supper was held at the beginning of the year. A large crowd attended the supper. With the help of our ever willing principal Mr. Everett we chose the play, Now Adolph. The cast was: Bob Jenkins, Leon Benn, Jack Oakes, Dot London, Willard Howard, Lewis Howard, Madeline Herron, Laversa Wright, Joe Jenkins and Cyril Quint. We worked very hard on this play and well earned the congratulations which we received. Later in the year we had a social and entertainment. The glee club helped by giving a number of songs. We are now rehearsing the play, Flo's Beau under the faithful leadership of Mr. Everett. The Cast is as follows: Bob Jenkins, Chester Warman, Lewis Howard, Jack Oaikes, Allie Murchie, Electa Carson, Madeline Herron, Dorothy Lond'on, Mar- garet Turney and Doris Turney. Now that we are ready to graduate fond memories will always go with us. We will never forget the carefree days that we have spent at H. H. S. Our teachers have stood by us even if we have been unwilling at times. We feel now that we are ready to go out in the world and accomplish great things with the knowledge we have gained here. We hope every class that graduates from here will have as much faith in them- selves. We will now say Au revoir to the students and teachers of Hodgdon High School. Dorothy London. THE SAILOR TOURIST 'Ilhe port is Boston-the date is March 11, 1930-the time is 6 o'clock in thc morning. All is well, clear sky, light breeze blowing, and a smooth sea. 'Captain Watson and the First Mate Burns had said farewell to their little families, not knowing 'whether the Gods would be so liberal as to let them return to their respective homes in safe-ty or not. But such is the life of a sea-faring man. His existence depends on the winds and the tides, his fate is in nature's hands. HHi! there you fellows , cried the Mate in his cheery manner. IIeave-a-way on those ropes-stand by the fenders ! We sailors sprang foreward' doing as he bid, pulling with both hands on the slacking hairy ropes. The stern of th-e yacht slowly swung out clear of the docks. Soon she was free and drifting with the tide. Ding-Ding-Dong the bells were relay- ing to the engine room. Chug-Chug- the twin propellors churned the green Page Sixteen The Aurora muddy water of the harbor into white foam. The Yacht Hardi Biaou glided foreward and passed silently out of Boston Harbor. She was off-off for the haunts of the Mediterranean. Soon the city of Boston was nothing but a black blotch on the horizon line. The very plainly Customs Tower could be seen as it seemed to shoot up into the heavens entire city. like a guardian angel for the Off the port beam about a mile away fisher- men in small thirty foot boats were head- ing for the deep waters, to set their lobster traps or to fish. The trusty old sea gulls were beginning to drop off one by one. While at every turn of the propellors we were lengthening our distance between home and loved ones. For eleven days Old Man Neptune beat and lashed the iron sides of our vessel. Were we Sea Sick? Don't ax' me ! But after the first three days out we all began to gather our sea legs under us, and from then on life on board the ship was a continual joy. The first port was Gibraltar, Spain. Here is where we Americans go for our first real taste of foreign elements. For days affter we left this port the taste-fwas still in some of the fellows' mouths. Gibraltar is a free port, controlled by the British Government and is one of the chief trading centers in Southern Europe. In the picture you will notice the Rock of Gibraltar standing as it has stood for thou. sands of years, the Watchdog of the Mediterranean and a very Hercules to its solid granite core. Seven days after we left Gibraltar we were being towed by an Egyptian tug boat up the Suez Canal. There they anchored us before the French Customs House of Port Said. At all times the officers were very kind and considerate of the welfare of the crew. 'Ilhey would give us leave ashore in every port where conditions were favorable. This gave us a wonderful privilege to get acquainted with the people, customs, and languages which 'we all took advantage of to the best of our abilities. One Sunday while we were in a port called Beriuth, Syria, five of us red blooded deck sweepers banded together to take a grand old walk and see the sights. The roll was called, the instinctive command to march forward was given! Like a wander- ing bank of homeless Gypsies we paraded up one dark alley and down through an- other. The disgusting smells that lingered like a thick fog in some of those dark alleys, boy, it turned my silver lining inside out. There wasn't a fellow that night who didn't have sore feet or a lame neck. I craned my neck around, up, and sideways until I thought that I would be taken for a baby giraffe. My eyes were continually on the move, dancing with every new excitement. Finally we broke out into open country. Douglas, the 2nd Engineer was from Maine and he lit out like a back woodsman when he saw and smelt the fresh green meadows that lay before us. We all followed close at his heels, for the call of the green grass was strong. Well, it wasn't long before we got into trouble. Seeing a great white cross and a large stone build- ing on top of a very high mountain, we be- came interested. Then some one said, Let's climb it and see what that Cross of Christ looks like close to. So up the face of the mountain we went. Grabbing on to moss and bushes to aid us in climbing. Scaling a six foot wall, my ship mate and I landed in a pig s-ty. We walked up a winding stairs and came out into a large court yard. Some one gave a low Whistle that caused us to stop and look about. Where Were we? Well, sir, we had landed head over heels into a Convent. Were we surprised? Well, some, believe me! On leaving Beriuth the course was set for Famagusta, Cyprus. The people of this Island looked as ancient as the decayed stone battlements that were built by the Crusaders. They would stare at us with blank faces, while we stopped and inspect- ed or admired an old rustic piece of stone carving or walked slowly over their paved narrow roads. We may have thought that they were thinking us Gods sent from Heaven to give them a change of scenery. If in truth we really did know their thoughts it would probably be, Who are those white monkeys, they act as though they had never seen stone before. Ugh, what evil thoughts the east can bear towards the The Aurora Page Seventeen west. It was in this port that I had a real close up of a baby camel. They are ugly little creatures, but the world loves a baby and being of the things of this earth I wanted to bring him home with me. Brut nothin' doin', there was no room for such ugly little things on board the ship-there were too many of them all ready. The Tower of Othello was the noted antique that caused our boss, Doctor Lloyd, to have his yacht visit Cyxprus. Shakes- peare immoralizes this bit of broken down stone tower until it rings like a silver note in the world's great Hall of Dramatic Arts. We lay in Famagusta, Cyrpus, for one day. Then when on May the sixth the Captain gave the order for the anchor to be hoisted, we were to do some quick cruis- ing. Our next port was Rhodes. The fol- lowing is a report of Rhodes as taken from my log bookg-May 9, 1930-Ah, what a day to set sail. The sun is bright, round and full. White fleecy clouds dot the hazy blue skies. The cool balmy breezes that are blowing off from the humped-backed sum- mits of the Dorian Promentory refresh my dreams and causes the sweat upon my brow to vaporize. I have just finished shining brass rails. I wish you could just see the color of this sea. It is a deep rich blue like the sapphire, and I'll guarantee that it must be as deep as a woman's soul, for in places they tell me that it is bottomless. We left Rhodes about five o'clock this morning. I must confess that I feel as though I had left a chunk of my heart be- hind me. Rhodes is the best port that we have been into as yet. It is sometimes called the City of Walls. This describes the city in itself. For one cannot look any great distance without seeing 'walls forty or fifty feet high reaching up into the air. Yesterday my ship mate, Ralf, the oiler, Jack, and myself hired bicycles and toured the city. We saw the exact spot where once the Bronze Collusus straddled the harbor. All the buildings of the town are made out of sand stone quarried on the Island. The streets are very narrow, made of cobble stones. The people are mostly Greek and Italian. Very fair skin with beautiful eyes and long black hair. They aren't shy like most of the people we had seen in previous ports. Many a young man and maiden we parlez-vous with. The young boys about the ages of five or seven years would follow us American curios about taking our hands and hanging on to them as though we were their daddies. A great place, I-can- a-tell-a-you. After stopping at a large number of the Greek Islands such as Samos and Mytiline we set the course for Constantinople. Since leaving Boston the yacht had cruised 6,168 miles. The trip to Constantinople was very pleasant. The Sea of Marmara was as smooth as glass. The Dardanelles seemed to rehearse a talking picture of her glorious past as we sailed between her stately clay banks, for it seems as though I saw once again Greeks fighting against Persians. Hand in hand they fought the battle, ever- increasing in loudness. Or, I would imagine Leander. swimming in mid-stream with powerful masculine strokes. Then the Mate Burns jerked me out of my dreams, Hey, you, Jenkins, get the brass polish and some rags and shine up the gangways or we'll soon be looking like a cattle boat in- stead of a yacht. So we continued our voyage from Constantinople back down through the Dardanelles and thence into the Agean Sea, touching again such islands as Tinos, Delos, Paros, Thera, and may I mention right here the picture showing how Thera was formed? The inhabitants live in stone built houses on top of the cliffs, having only a zigzag road leading to their summits. Up this winding trail travel man, beast, and burdens. Again we start out on our circle of the Mediterranean stopping at Melos, Syros, Pieraeus the port for Athens, then going through the Corinth Canal we anchor at Oxia, the next day sailing to Corfu. Then we sailed along the coast of Jugoslavia always heading towards Venice. Venice to us was a 1'egular gold pot at the end of a long, long rainbow. What a beauti- ful place to spend your youth! The ci-ty makes the young feel younger, and the old feel young. A spot only for lovers and dreamers. Venice-I shall never forget you! Harken! to the words of Lord Byron:- Page Eighteen The Aurora She looks a sea Cybele, fresh from ocean, Risking with her tiarra of proud towers At airy distance, with majestic motion, A ruler of the waters and their powers: And such she was, her daughters had their dowers From spoils of nations, and the exhaust- less East Poured in her lap all gems in sparkling sholwfers. In purple was she robed, and of her feast Monarchs partook, anddeerned their dig- nity increased. In Venice Tasso's echoes are no more, And silent rows the songless gondolierg Her palaces are crumbling to the shore, And music meets not always now the ear: Those days are gone, but Beauty still is here: States all, arts fade, but Nature doth not die, Nor yet forget how Venice once was dear, The pleasant place of all festivity, The revel of the earth, the masque of Italy! After seeing many of the important cities of Italy and many of the world's great wonders, such as Mt. Etna, Mt. Vesuvious, the Island of Capri, Rome, Pompeii, we set sail for the shores of Elba and Corsica. The Principality of Monaco, the gambling den of France was the next and last great point of interest. Here is where the Casino is locat- ed. Monte Carlo is a dream to a man with wealth but as for a sailor, I should' advise him to give Monte Carlo wide berth. On leaving Monte Carlo we headed straight for Gibraltar again, arriving there in four days. The tanks 'were filled with oil and water. Stores were taken on board ship. Everything was once again in order to hoist the anchors and set sail. This time for the United States-HOME. The trip from Gibraltar to Boston was made in eleven days, nine hours, and twenty-one minutes. We would have made better time if the steering wheel hadn't broken down four days out of Boston, and a strong south-Wester sort of chopped up the sea making it rough going. The afternoon that We sighted Boston, were We satisfied with our own native land? Boy, you just ax's me once only! I have only given you a light scratch com- pared to the deep scar that this experience left upon my memory. I trust that you will appreciate my feeble efforts to make the Ports about the Mediterranean Sea good places Where you can spend your loose change.

The Aurora Page Nine-teen A NIGHT OVER THERE France lay calm in the darkened moon- light. She was slumbering after a hard day's Work. The night could hardly be called beautiful, although the melancholy person would call it thus. It was a night for deep thoughts, a night to think of the past. It was one of those nights when one could almost feel the presence of a higher mind. On such a night lovers usually cling to the fireside rather than venture into the open air of the dark and shadowy garden. Children stop their play at the approach of dusk, while usually their joyous shouts and laughter could be heard far in the evening. There was a slight breeze moving among the large trees, and they swayed slowly as if, when their day's work was done, they were resting in a large arm chair, rocking quietly and thinking of what had gone by during the years they had been there. A path stretched itself in and out among these trees, reaching ever forward toward a large open field. One glance at this field and one would need no explanation of the purpose which it served There glistened in the :gloomy light thousands upon thousands of crosses. Rows that were as straight as an engineer could make them extended as far as the eye could reach. On each cross, if examined closely, there could be read the so1dier's naime, the regiment in which he served and the cause of his death. Oh, the stories that that path could tell, stories of sorrow, of heartaches of joy suddenly quenched by the death of a father, brother, or son! How many have traveled this path ?-But yet, how many have gone this way, not as We go now, but borne on the shoulders of their comrade-in-arms with feet foremost? Oh, the injustice of it allg the cruelty of it. It is as if Fate was mocking us and daring us to stop it if we could! Will We ever wake up from the sleep which we have been in for the thousands of years? Will we ever wake up to the mocking cruelty of the wrongs which we have afflicted upon ourselves? How long will it take us to learn that War can accomplish only one thing and that one thing, the destruction of our civilization? We are not to judge, but what will the people who were responsible for the war, say, when called before their maker and asked to account for the thousands of lives that they caused to be destroyed? For every life that was destroyed there were ten persons brought to sorrow. Think of the hundreds of young girls 'widowed before they were hardly out of their teens. Surely our younger generation has carried their share of the sorrows and hardships of this last war! May they never have to experience such horrors again! We know now, for certain, in spite of all the efforts of those whose interest it is to keep the facts covered up, that the war was a result of the per- sonal prejudice and ambitions of just a handful of persons. We read in the head lines of the papers that such a nation did this, and such a country did thatg that an- other country was forced into the war by having to protect its colonies and its trade, but those who have studied the war from several angles know that this was just an elaborate system of diplomacy. I wonder if these few people ever visit the graves of their victims? When they see the flags of different countries waving over the graves, I wonder if their hearts ever soften and if they breathe a prayer for the souls of those gallant young men? If they never have, there have been thousands who have. Hardly a night has gone by but what there has been some poor person walking slowly through that little gate and with bowed head standing before a grave, which is the only remembrance of a once young and carefree boy. If these graves are remem- brances of brave deeds done in service of their country, they are also remembrances of grave mistakes and false deeds on the part of the rulers. These men only thought of their own gains and their own rewards, never once giving thought to the sacrifice of the brave lads who would die. What care Page Twenty The Aurora they for the sorrows of the 'common trash,' if they could only gain their own ends? It was on such a night as this, that a poor French peasant woman was seen walking along this path which led toward the rows of crosses. She was alged, and walked 'with a droop of the shoulders. Her ldng black dress touched the ground' and a hood of the same material covered her head. This was just one of her nightly visits. Every night, about this time, would find her walking along this path. After passing through the gate, she would turn to the left and approach a little white cross. After standing -before this cross a little while with bowed head, she would go over to another cross, and with the same bowed head she could be heard to murmur a prayer in her native tongue. If you ask a villager who she is, you will be told that she is Madam Mateau. Her story is well known among them. How her olde-st boy was called from her to fight for 'la belle France! He went with a glad heart, because he knew that his mother would be looked after by her younger son, and also because he would be able to fight for his country. It was not long until news was brought of how her son had been killed in action. She stood the blow bravely. When her son was brought home, it cannot be said thrat she l-ost heart. I-Iald she not her Jean to look after her? She bore her loss silently as is characteristic of her race. Never once did she complain. Every night she would carry a little bunch of flowers and lay them on his grave. When asked if she did not feel bitter against the fworld for the death of her son, she would answer quickly, Why should I? Was it not the will of God? Have I not my Jean? Then, when asked what she would do if her Jean were called to serve his coun-try she would look startled, then she would say quickly, But he will not be. Thus she lived with her only son, happily and without regrets. He loved her as only a boy can love his mother, and worked steadily and long into the evening so she might have money to buy flowers and to have the little comforts which every mother likes. Then one day the blow fell. He came home from their little store pale and 'w-ith a haggard look on his young boyish face. When he entered he saw his mother sitting beside the window watching' the little child- ren across the street playing ball. Mother, he stammered, mother, I-I've been called! What?-Oh, Jean, it can't be so! It can't be! Oh, mon enfant, mon enfantf' He kneeled at her side, Ma Mere, je reviendrai, he assured her. Then- I have got to go tomorrow night. I arranged everything, mother, Mary will come over and do the house work. The clerk at the store will attend to all the business affairs and report to you at every week-end. She was quiet for a long. When she said softly, Go, it is your duty! Long into the night they talked. This would be the last time that they would have a chance to talk together for a long while, perhaps, but she would not-could not, think of this-it would be the last time. The sun 'was just appearing over the hill tops when she sent him to bed for a little sleep before reporting to the military headquarters. While he slefpt she worked busily for a half hour, putting his few belongings into a small traveling bag to- gether with a small Bible. By the time she had finished, it was time to get breakfast. Within fifteen minutes it was ready. She called him, and with a short prayer of thanks they ate in silence. He was at her side all that day. When time came to report at head-quarters he left, with a simrple, Good-bye, mother. Don't worry. I will be back in a few months. He did come back but sooner than he ex- pected. You could hardly believe that mutilated form was once a boy, happy and healthy just a few weeks ago. Oh, the untold agonies that she suffered after he had left for the trenchesg not The Aurora Page Twenty-one knowing if he would come back or not. She put all her trust in God that he would bring her boy back to her safe and whole. She never ceased praying that she might see her boy once more. Maybe this was selfish of her, but those who have had sons go 'over there' know how lonesome it is to be left all alone with only the sympathies of the neighbors to help them over the trying times when they have not heard from their sons for weeks. Both of her sons were gone from her, one to that eternal sleep and the other fighting for a cause which he knew not. She was all alone. Neighbors came in to comfort her and to assure her that he would soon be back with herg but she silenced them 'with a sad tone that brought a tear to the eyes of many of them, It was his duty. Days past and she aged as if each day were a year. Every day found her scaning the columns on the bulletin posted by the government. Then one day it appeared: Jean Mateau killed in action while trying to take an enemy's machine gun nest. Friends carried her to her house. It was days before she ever came out of it. Her boy had been brought home and buried be- side his brother. She was a striking figure in her long black dress. When asked what her age was strangers would say that she must be at least sixty years old, but neigh- bors say she had just turned forty. Every night she would take a few flow- ers to lay at the head of two graves now instead of one. The war ended. It brought no joy to her. There was no lorner ioy in this -world for her. The only joy that she could ever have now would be when she would meet her sons across that border of death.

J BOYS' BASEBALL TEAM ,a r QATHLE TICS GIRLS' BASKETBALL NOTES At our first call for basketball this season there were about twenty present. We elected our captain, M. Herrong man- ager, E. McLeang and assistant manager, M. Merritt. This year our girls were able to have new suits and stockings of the school colors. This helped a great deal in the attitude they took toward basketball as each one was trying for a suit. The first two gawmes of the season, played with Danforth and Easton, we met with defeats. It was due to the lack of practice and not knowing the exact placement of the players. The next game we played was 'with Merrill. We won from them with a score of 45-19. The next few games were rather unlucky for us. Then came the night for the big game between Hodgdon High and Island Falls High. They had defeated us last year and we had a determination not to let them this time. We started off from the first with eagerness and a desire to Win. When the whistle blew, our center got the tap-off and it went straight into the hands of our forward, who grasped the ball and shot a basket. The first half of the game ended with a score of 25-0 in our favor. Not until our coach put in subs were our opponents able to get a basket. The game finally ended with us in the lead 33-4. We also won from them on our own floor, 26-13. Next in line came the big boosters from Bridgewater. We won from them with a score of 53-10. Then came the purple and gray from Ricker. They beat us with a score of 29-11. Nearly everyone in school wanted to see our second game with Bridgewater, but as it happened the game was up there, and only the coaches and the first and second teams were able to make the trip. Nevertheless, we won 33-8. Our return game 'with Ricker had drawn upon us. The game was very exciting all the way through. At the half the score was 2-1, Ricker's favor. It was a close score up to the last two minutes then Ricker got the better of us. It ended with another victory for Ricker 15-10. The next two were with Easton and Alumni, bo-th won by the opponents. This ended our basketball season for this year. We had a very successful season consider- ing the teams we played and the fact that we lost three of our regular players last year by graduation. The girls showed good sportsmanship and good playing in all of the games. Our guard com-bination E. Corson, M. Herron, and Alward, worked very 'well with the forwards D. Turney, Howard, and Merritt. Benson, T. Herron, Quint, M. Turney, and McLean showed their ability when they were called' in as substitutes. Our coach, Miss Thrall, did very well at coaching us throughout the year. Due to the fact that we are only losing one who played this year we are all looking forward to a better team next year, because they will be more experienced. M. Herron, M. Merritt, D. Turney, H. Howard, E. Corson, H. Alward, T. Herron, L. Benson, and E. McLean were awarded the High School H for their work this year. INDIVIDUAL SCORING M. Merritt 252 D. Turney 61 M. Herron 37 H. Howard 15 L.

The man- agers did very well in getting games for the team this season. The captain also did very well in leading the boys on the floor in each game. There were more boys out for practice this year than ever before, but it was about all green material. We boys were able to get new pants, making a complete suit. Our first game was with Danforth. We had only about a 'week's practice and it hadn't been decided where our permanent position would be. They all played very well throughout the game, fighting with all their might from start to finish. The whistle finally blew with Danforth in the lead, 14-36. We played Easton the next Friday night and were defeated 9-19. Next, came the big game with Merrill. It was a very exciting game all the way through. First one would be ahead and then another. At last we looped two baskets which won the game for us -w-ith a score of 24-21. The few games that followed were un- successful for us. n Then we defeated Bridgewater with a score of 14-30. ' Here comes the game everyone looked forward to. It was the Ricker game. Our boys had a determination to win and that they did, 15-20. Then our return game with Bridgewater. It was a trip no one could forget. Let alone the game which we won 12-24. Our last game of the season was with Ricker. They defeated us 19-30. We played class games. The Seniors won the most, therefore they won the cup. Earle Neal came the latter part of the season and helped a great deal in our basketball activities, as he was high point man in the last few games. Mr. Libby did very well at coaching us all the year. He sure showed he knew his basketball. There are three of the players graduating this year, but we are all planning on a better and more successful basketball team next year.

Allie Murchie '33 JUNIOR HIGH ATHLETIC NOTES The Junior High boys have had a very successful season in basketball. This is the first year the Junior High has ever been organized. We hope in the future to have the opportunity to be coached in all our athletic activities as we were last season. The boys who played are as follows:- John Adams our Captain did some very good work at guarding. Ray Murchie was our aggressive forward. Willard Howard could not be beat at center, although it was his first experience at basketball. Ronald Herron was our lucky forward, being a smooth shooter. Ralph Howard a fast and dependable guard.
