MEMORIES It gives us fond memories to think back over our four happy high school years, years that were filled with anxiety over the va- rious teams and their comparative chances of winning a coveted title or trophy, anxiety over exams and cramming at the last minute, the fun we've had at the school plays, contests, the annual circus, assem- blies, detention hall, and the tournaments that used to be held at Caribou. When we think that We'll never again be able to sit in the classrooms of Houlton High School as students and participate in the activities of the school, it makes us sad to graduate. lt seems strange to us to be thrust into a different world without much preparation for it. If we could have more contact with this world while we are in school, we would not be so bewildered when we make this change. -M. B. YOU HAVE T0 GO OUT If you have at any time read stories of the Coast Guards, you undoubtedly remember reading these immortal words, They have to go out: they don't have to come back. Some of you probably skipped over these words thoughtlessly, while others stopped and seriously considered them. Indeed, you might, by changing the words slightly, compare this motto to a student's, You have to enterg you don't have to tin- ish. For you students who will, of course, graduate, you may skip over this lightly: but for you who have thought of quitting, this is for you. Is It because you haven't got the stuffing to finish your course, or have you no ambi- tion or pride? Don't you want to be able to say, when applying for a job, that you have graduated from a credited high school, per- haps an honor student? What would you think if you read of a disaster at sea in which all aboard perish- ed, slmply because the coast guardsmen dldn't want to go out-no, they had to finish that game of chess: and anyway, the ocean was too rough for them to risk their lives. You'd call them slssles and cowards, wouldn't you? Well. isn't that what you are-cowards and slssles-if you don't care about doing your assignments? Not doing your lessons-lsn't that the same as quit- ting? So, you would-be quitters, when you feel like letting up, remember these words, They have to go outg but don't have to come back. -B. J. S. OUR PRAYER By Justlna Donovan Each eve, at the end of the dreary day, When most of the world is happy and gay, We bend on our knees, our prayers to say- We're tired of life, of work, of play. We pray for those whom we one day loved: For those who have gone to heaven above And have left us here, alone and afraid To carry on without their aid. And then, when we have finished our prayer. We climb to our feet and brush out our hair- And we try to forget our worldly cares, Hoping that God has heard our prayers. HAVEN OF REST By Mary Louise Higgins There is a winding dirt road That ls my haven of rest: When I am tlred and lonely, I like this place the best. It winds and rambles over a hill And by a babbling brook, Where I sit and ponder Within a shady nook. If ever you're tired and lonely, Please visit my haven of rest Along the winding dirt road- The place that I love best. The day is :bright and sunny: lt looks like spring this day. Hard telling what tomorrow brings! It may not be so gay.
