But to meet it in the full bloom of youth is a tragedy. Such was the sad fate of Reggie Downie - grateful athlete, gentleman, pal of H. H. S. - stricken just before his graduating year. But he left the greatest legacy of all - a beautiful memory.

Editorial lJeeember Tth is a day that will long live in infamyf' ln these words spoken by our President lies the prelude to a new chapter in Ameriea's history. Youth ot' America. we are the war gener- ation. How we act in the next few years will determine the fate ot' this country. Our elders have shouldered the responsibilities ot' a nation at war. The burden ot' an Nall- outf' effort, is heavy, and by the minute grows heavier. Youth must and will au:- ment the ranks ot' belli,t.rerent Ameriea's in- dustries in their rare against time.

It isn't necessary to shoulder a gun to defend Auierieag join those Fivilian lleteuse classes: be on the alert to better yourself and thus better your country. XVe all have in us, somewhere, dormant abilities. These hidden potentialities should be the stepping stones to a satisfying: and lasting position in life. Now is the time to unsheath those talents ami wield them vig:- orously in the nation's struggle.

Junior Notes - In tht- l'all ol' 103351. 1535 new students enter- vml llonlton lligh School, Like most fresh- lllt'll. we were shy at firstg Init this condi- tion didn't last long, That year we elected Hob Anderson president, Winnifred Miller rict--prvsitleiil. Donald McNutt, secretary, Marjorie Watson. treasurer. Since this' h it was decided not to have a freshman and year candidate for queen. our class was not rep! rt-sented in the gala coronation at. the an- nual high school circus. The following year, we suffered the loss ol' one ol' our most beloved students, Fran- ces Cates. Winnie Miller and Dick Niles were our caunlidates tor queen and king at the circus of '41. The class talent in dram- atics was shown in the speaking contest. As juniors. we have several outstanding students in the music field, Jimmy Chad- wick and Albert Madigan carry the honors in the band, Dick and Bob Niles, Bob An- derson. and Don McNutt all helped this yt-ar's basketball team. Most of the time, our boys were out-sizedg but they were in there fighting just the same. Ken Larson is the fastest boy in the junior classAhe's on thc track team, incidentally. He placed eighth in the state meet, fourth in the county meet, and he is co-captain of next year's track team, x The same students except Louena Merri- thew. Kay. Kinney. and Ken Larson, who were new this year, participated in the spc-aiming contest. Margie Watson and Al- bert. Madigan are this year's candidates for queen and king. Here's luck to you, kids. .The enrollment of our class has dropped to 119. Ann Doherty is one who left us to go to a girls' school in Albany. So far, we haven't done many outstanding things, but we have a big year coming up. L. II. x H?H. S. BOY'S LAMENT By Harriette Watson '44 , These soldiers sort of cramp our style. ln uniforms so neat, They fascinate our pretty girls. Their line is hard to beat. Perhaps we'll have to mend our manners, Learn to dance and such, Or we'll be out of luck and sore. NVe wouldn't like that-much! Boyne: Yep, I paid 35100 for that dog. lle's part Collie and part bull. Jonesy: Yeah? VVhich part of him is bull? Boyne: That part about the S2100. 1 e u 2 THE JUNIORS 11 Sophomore Notes This elass is really quite important, as it has some fine lloulton High spirit in it. And of eourse let's not forget, its president from Central Ameriea. .lose Duron. ln number. this elass is also quite large. having 1110 members. Aeeording to Coaeh lluse Tibbetts. with a little more growth and improvement, its basketball players. Grant. Plourde. Byers. York. and Nleflaffin ought to shape into a flue varsity in a year or two. Of eourse. let's not forget its sougbird, llarriette Wat- sou. who is also a member ot' the band. VW- should also mention their eandidates for eireus king and queen. lfraueis Skehan and Phyllis Gray. All in all. this is a most promising elass. XVe might even prediet that its athletes will some day put ll. ll. S. baek on the map. lt is quite possible that it contains the Aroos- took County basketball ehampions ot' 194-t. F. G. lllr. Tibbetts at skull praetiee: Suppose the ball is on their five, last down. one point behind, and a minute to go. what would you do. VVileox'? .loez l'd move down the beneh l'urther where I eould see better. V Freshman Notes Nine years ago. there started to various sehools in town those Marys. Johunies. Tommies. and Bettys who today make up our timid little freshman elass. Not little iu the sense of numbers. Heavens. no! lt's really quite a large elass. having a total of 125 members who are represented by their President Bobby Mctformaek. Each morning, they struggle off to the Houlton High School knowledge box to learn their algebra. world history. English. and other branches of knowledge theY just live by. Not that itfs all work and no play! Good- ness. no! The elass has its own athletie team eoaehed by that Colby man. Joe Doh- binsl who has reeently enlisted-. In Elliot Berman and Billy Bernard. it has fine poten- tial varsity basketball material. Oh yes. let's not forget those who lmff and puff uu- der Mr. Sherman's guidance in an attempt to play in the band. and who will in years to eome make fine musieiaus. I . G. Miss F.

Joyce may not know it - but somebody else is taking her place - tt'or one evening anywayb by name, Phyllis Grant. Macllroy is all broken up - girl friend -- school w and all that sort of thing. We've all been wondering who will re- place Bobby in the Pope affections.-Your reporter heard that Bud and the soldier are neck and neck S . . . Do soldiers carry guns .... ? This year's high school circus brought. forth many pleasant surprises in the selec- tion of the candidates for king and queen. New stars will shine in the school's Popu- larity List - and welcome additions, t.oo. Do you suppose Jean will ever settle lown to one soldier? . . . Do you suppose .lean will ever settle down? Joyce Wolverton isn't just absent. She really left this time. Flash ! ! The Lewin sisters are having trouble with their love affairs again - this time Dolores has the wanderlust. Congratulations to the students who were awarded the honor parts. May scholarship always have first place in H. H. S.! Ralph Grant thinks variety is the spice of lit'e - but Lois Hovey is the spiciest. How does Ruth manage to juggle two boys at the Sallie time? The other night. she broke a date with .Toe to go out. with llalphie. The next night it was .loe's turn. Some girls are born lucky. Mary Maloney is reported to be having a wonderful time doing the town with Paul Fitzpatrick. Has she forgotten Don McNutt ? Until next year. folks. this is your campus snooper wishing you lots ot' luck during the summer. A. S. signing off Once upon a time in Aroostook lived Mr. and Mrs. Potato and their little daughter.

THE FOOTBALL TEAM Back row: Coach Peabody, Coach Dobbins. Manager Hagermn. Head Coach Tib- betts. Second row: C. Gardiner, F. Gardiner, lVlcQuade, A. St. Pierre. E. llerman. Riley, P1ou1'de, Drown. Front row: Asst. Mgr. Cameron, Niles. McNutt. Wilcox. Captain Malcolm Berman, Cameron, Moore, Taylor, Asst. Mgr. Byers. Football When coaches Tibbetts. Peabody, and Dobbins issued the call for football candi- dates. four lcttermen and a host of eager aspirants reported. The veterans returning to the pigskin wars were Bob Russell '42, a fast triple-threater, Mal Berman '42, field- general, Ralphie Taylor '42 vicious-tackling halfback. and Joe lVilcox '43, a 180-lb. All- State-mention guard. To round out the backfield, the pigskin braintrust alternated Elliott Berman '45. hard-running freshman speed merchant, and Bill Riley '44, a husky sophomore. The forward wall, riddled by graduation, was the big headache throughout the campaign: and although some capable men were found, it sadly lacked the defensive strength of former years. Bob Niles '43, a Iletter-than-average pass snatcher, Dorson Plourde '44, a hard-working guard, together with Joe Wilcox, were the stalwarts in the front bulwark, The Black and White warriors broke only one record during their sojourn on the fall gridiron-they were the smallest and light- est team in the history of the school. Statis- tics show that the average weight ol' thc squad was on the shy side of 140. In brilliant performances, the touchdown at Lincoln would be hard to beat. ln exact- ly two minutes, our boys went eighty yards to score. After Elliott Berman at safety wisely decided to let a ditticult-to-handle punt roll into the end zone, the march was on. Far up the field. the quartet of Russell. Berman, Taylor, and Berman rushed the ballball, Then Bob Niles kangarooed high into the air to snatch an overland heave on the one-yard stripe. Led by vicious block- ing. Russell easily swept through a large hole for the score. On a quarterback sneak, Berman rammed over for the point. The letter winners are Malcolm Berman '42, Robert Russell '42, Elliott Berman '45, Ralph Taylor '42. Vvilliam Riley '44, Robert Niles '43, Donald McNutt '43, Bernard Cam- eron '42, Frank Gardiner '43, Earl Gardiner '44, Joseph Wilcox '43, Dorson Plourde '44, Euclid St, Pierre '42, John Mooers '42, Al- cid St. Pierre '43, Holland Taylor '42, Pat- THE CROSS COUNTRY TEAM l,111'1 111 right: IX11'G111'fi11, 11111'1111'k.

Girls' Basketball As a farewell token of her esteem, Mado- moiselle La Basketball crowned Coach Charles Wood and his girls with the mythi- cal championship of the Pine Tree State. Again the star was lanky lfllsa Bostrom. who used her six foot frame to good advant- age in popping the pill through the net so frequently that the local fans usually left the gymnasium with a noted stiti'ness in the neck from looking so often from the nets to the scoreboard. Teamed with Slug , the highest scoring girl hasketeer in all New ldngland. were Arlean Taylor, a fine floor- mun and a good drihhler, and Katherine tlilland, who not infrequently brought down the house with amazing shots from all corn- ers of the court. ln the back court, Shirley Titcomh, Mar- ion Gilland, and Donna Hates were mighty stalwarts. Throughout the season, Rena llatfield, .lanette Hallett, and Betty llurlock were constantly pushing the regulars and turned in many praiseworthy perform- anees. 'Phe shining spots in an undefeated re- cord were the win against the highly favor- ed Calais sextet--previously unbeaten in two successive seasons, the win over a fine Brewer hall team, and the first win over the Stearns lassies at litillinovliet.

THE BASEBALL SQUAD Baseball Starting the season with a drastically modified schedule, the Black and White pasturers appear to have the makings of a izither successful nine. At present, merry battles are being waged for most of the positions, Spooner, Niles, Taylor, and Berry, being the only veterans from last year's fine squad returning to the diamond wars. Time alone will tell what the actual team will look like, but the following seem to be on the inside track for regular berths: York '44, catcher, Spooner '42, pitcher: Berry '43, lst base, McGaffin '44 2nd base, Dick Niles '43, shortstop, E.

Suppose it. will ever end '? On the battlefield. men are strewn With their bodies riddled and torn From bullets of the enemies' guns- Suppose it will ever end?

My THE CIRCUS PARADE ON THE SQUARE 21 PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE By Ardith Smith Peggie Darling, I'm simply bubbling over with news- about me, of course-and it's so thrilling I can't type it fast enough. Woe is me! Now I wish I'd been good and learned my keys the way Miss Wallace told me to. But, you know me-the original bug-a-boo. You remember me telling you about getting two bids to the Lynn Prep School Victory Dance and not knowing which one to accept? Well, that's settled, Bud FINALLY asked me! Tomorrow night's the big night, and I can hardly wait! Honest, Peggie, I'm more excited over this dance than I was over in first formal-and that's saying a lot, isn't it? You know, I think I have a bad case of it and That Ain't Good.. fSong title-but it fitsl Of course, I have a new dress, and is it a honey! Woo! Woo! There was an awfully cute yellow one at our pet shop, but Bud says I remind him of the angel who didn't use Rinso when I wear yellow, sow naturally, that was out. This is a pale blue chiffon and, as you've probably guessed already, blue IS his favor- ite color. Bul-you will have to admit-it is my best color too, so-no wise cracks, please. It has a long waist-line and, modest as I am, I must admit I look like a million bucks in that type of a dress. It has an extremely full skirt which is gathered on the long- walst line just below the hip bone. The neckline is high and gathered, while the sleeves are long and fairly full. Velvet bows of a deeper shade of blue are scattered in a hit-and-miss maner over the skirt. My slippers make me feel just like Cin- derella, even though IIERS were of glass wear my sweetheart locket on a ribbon of wear my swetheart locket on a ribbon of velvet, too. I won't have a corsage.

Well, Hon, it's after 1:00 a. m. and I do need a little beauty sleep-believe it or not Hso I'd better close. Forgive my mistakes - wish me luck - and write soon. All my love, Alice THE GIRLS' GLEE CLUB HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS By Sally Packard We were arriving at home for the Christ- mas holidays. The smooth runners of the sled made a crunchy sound on the snow as the spirited chestnut horses pulled us merrily along the road, homeward bound. A merry twinkle was in the eyes of the driver when he heard our laughter ring out in the frosty air. The weather-beaten sled plowed its way through the sifted snow, up hill and down dale. We passed farm houses partially snowed under and all having a peaceful, silent atmosphere about them. Now we were rounding the big curve, dashing across the short, straight stretch with sleigh bells ringing clearly in the snap- py air. The large white farm house, with the green shutters at the many-lighted win- dows, was indeed a pleasant sight. Smoke was curling lazily out of the two huge stone chimneys. Behind the house stood the red barn, half buried -in the newly fallen snow. Two pine trees by the corner of the house, heavily laden with snow, spread their beau- tiful branches as if ln a welcome.. The straight path leading to the front door looked as if it had been shoveled early that morning. .As snow had fallen again, the imprints of tiny feet and dog tracks still lingered on the fresh, shimmering quilt. Jumping from the sled and running to the porch, stamping our feet to keep warm, we could hear Buster's joyous bark inside. No sooner had we reached the door when it was thrown open, and a warm light shone out on us all. In the doorway stood our mother, welcoming us with open arms, THE DRUNK By John Putnam There was a man whose name was Bill Who now and then got drunkg One night he had imbibed too much, And in his thoughts was sunk. He started walking home that night, But couldn't guide his feetg One Wobbly foot was on the walk, And one was in the street. A cop then passed him on his beat. Why, Bill, he said, you're drunk! Thank God for that! then Bill replied. My leg was broke, I thunk! ACCIDENTAL DEATH? By Jean Way A man on his way to Missouri Said, My brain is loaded with worry.

I know everybody's gossip and whom they like and dislike, what teachers they have, subjects. and just about everything you can think of. When recess comes, everybody rushes down to the auditorium to watch Virginia, Jean. and Jeanette dance. You see, I know most of your names, too. They aren't the only kids that dance. Anyone who wants to cang only I suppose some of the small freshmen would rather sit hack and watch until they are a little olderg but of course there are exceptions. I see all the basketball games free, while you have to pay twenty-five cents or get an activity ticket. At the games, I practically fall apart with everybody hollerinf: and screaming, Fight, team, fight! or Come on, Houlton! There is another time when I have fun, alsog and that is at the dances down in the gym with all the kids talking and having a merry time, and especially with Rod Palm- er's orchestra swinging and swaying it. I just shake all over as though I were danc- ing right with the others. I go all through winter this way, having a wonderful time until graduation day comes, and the seniors leave me. Oh, but new fresh- men kids come in, and I meet new friends, the next fall. Well. good-bye now: but you better watch out about what you say, because I'm all 0 mrs. and I might tell. THE MURDER OF SLUG BOSTROM By Arlean Taylor What was that? A scream! Another one! It came from the locker room. Policeman Tomilson rushed in. He found Pookey Steen. her face as white as her cheerlead- ing suit, leaning against the wall. What's the matter? he yelled. Look! she gasped, pointing to the op- posite corner. There, lying face downward, was the body of Slug Bostrom. A stream of blood trickled out from her chest. She was dressed in her basketball suit, her sneakers partly laced. Evidently, she had been leaning against the wall, lacing her sneaks, when she was shot and fell for- ward. The gun must have had a sllencer on it, or someone would have heard it. This was the night of the big game be- tween the,Houlton Roberts and the Portland Crooks, to- see which team would get the state championship and the free trip to the White House. Slug, six feet and over inches tall, could not be outguardedg therefore, she was the high scorer for Houlton. Someone wanted Houlton to' lose. Policeman Tomilson called Inspector Barnes. When Inspector Barnes went into the locker room, he found Shirley Titcomb rummaging through Slug's bag. What are you after? he asked. N - - n - - nothing, she replied meekly. What's that in your hand, and where did you get it? he demanded. This is mineg it's my compact. I let Slug use lt, and now I want it. Well, I gotta go. 'Bye. Walt a minute, yelled Barnes. I under- stand you were S1ug's best friend. What can you tell me about her? Did she have any enemies? Well, I heard Kathryn Gilland and Rena Hatfield say they were tired of doing all the work at a game and having Slug get all the praise. They wished they could play one game without having to throw the hall to her all the time. Fine, Anything else? Someone on the other team might like to see her out of the way. With her gone, they could easily win and- What's this? he asked interrupting her and picking up a bloody handkerchief. On it were the initials, A. K. 'Nobody .on our team with those initials. Must belong to someone on the other team, Shirley replied. Ba.rnes, with the handkerchief wrapped within his own, hastened to the hotel where the Portland girls were staying. 'Whose initials are A. K.? he demanded. Mine, peeped a red-haired girl from the lounge. What's your name? he asked, taking out his pencil and notebook. Annie Kake. Why ? Does this belong to you?' he inquired, handing the red handkerchief to her. Yes, It did. So what? she replied. This was found at the scene of the mur- der. Now will you explain? Before the game. I took a nose bleed. I went into the basement for some cold water. Seeing that my handkerchief was bloody and knowing I couldn't use it any more, I threw it away. With that. Barnes left. saying he might return later. Now for that Gilland and Hatfield girl! Conferring with them, he learned noth- ing. Why should they harm Slug, when she would make possible their championship and a trip? That's reasonable, thought Barnes to himself. But who could have done it? Leaving the basement, Barnes went up- stairs. Hearing an argument in room seven, he stopped. Weren't those the voices of Mr. Marsh and Shirley Titcomb? If you ever tell that Slug and I quarrel- ed at my last cowboy chapel rehearsal, you'll be sorry, Mr. Marsh was saying. You know she slapped my face when I told her she had to be my lover in the play. I had to defend myself. . Yes, but why did you kill her? demand- ed Shirley. I don't know, I must have been out of my head. Promise me never to tell, he begged in agonizing tones. I guess you were more than a little bit out, bellowed Barnes, stepping into the room. Philip, you're under arrest! Mr. Marsh was taken to the county jail, where he was examined by Dr. Spooks. He was found to have a pressure on the brain which made him think he had to have his own way. Upon questioning the students of his classes, Barnes discovered the pupils dared never to have their homework undone. Mr. Marsh is now in Bangor, cutting paper dolls and trying to scratch his right elbow-with his right hand.

THE HONOR SOCIETY TIMELY ADVICE T0 WORRIED MOTHERS By Dr. MacGowan All mothers, no matter what race, color, or creed. are intimately annoyed with their children when they reach the late teen ages. Young men and women at this age seem to have more genius for get.ting into trouble than at any other period in their life. Young people should consider their parents when they do unreasonable things, but, for some undefinable reason, they do not. At this stage in life, the greatest worry of the mother is the carefree, independent. at.- titnde that high school phpils, mostly boys. adopt when they become smitten with the hidden charms of some delicate creature of the opposite sex. When a young man wan- ders through the house aimlessly with a far- away look in his eyes, beware! These are the first symptoms of an undying devotion for some silly, giggling, lipstick-smeared female who has turned loose on him all her charms. Now, mothers. do not get excited at these familiar signs. After your boy has had one date with the object of his incessant devo- tion, he will discover a great loathing for her, because she constantly chews gum. But let me warn you. the next time he comes down with similar symptoms, be on your guard! This one is likely to develop into a more serious matter. He may go out with the girl four or five times before he finds that she is a True Love Story fiend and is just dying to try a new technique practiced by Myrna La Bombshelle, on him. As a last bit of instruciton, let me warn you, while your loving son is undergoing all these reactions, pay no attention to him. Let him suffer with his great burden and he will recover, somewhat the wiser from his experience. He will know that all women spell danger. and will avoid them, t'or two months or so.

Never be- fore have we seen so many new, famous, and glamorous pans decorating the hot spots. We saw J. Samuel Hoskln, author of Cones and Old Lake, at the Imperial Cafe yesterday. The show starring his wife, that beautiful hunk of girl of silent films you all know, is going great guns on the Gay White Way.

Honeychild Pope, who ls now appear- ing at the Grecian Room of the Hotel Hey- wood, is rumored engaged to Bob Hogan, her handsome bandleader, with whom she vocals. In the very front row of the Grecian Room's swank tables were Phil Marsh and Mal Berman, owner and coach respectively of the last place Broklyn Dodgers.

Miss Tony Blther, who has written a se- quel to They Died With Their Boots On called The Cobbler's Lament, was in town yesterday to see her publishers, Jones, Boyne, and Hughes. This gay society charmer was striking in a gray suit with a purple hat by Chapeau. Miss Edythe .Rlchardson, star of Mis- souri Compromlse, has been a permanent fixture on Junior Hale's arm for the last few weeks. Junior is the son of P. T. Hale, the millionaire piano bench manufacturer and backer of this alluring gal's show. 'Their engagement is to be announced as soon as his divorce decree from Arlean Alicia Tay- lor becomes final.

A fresh fall ot' snow covered the earth with a diamond-studded bla11ket of pure white. ln the valley nestled a few scatter- ed farm bn'ldings, their somber sides eni- phasizcd hy the dazzling white crown on their roofs. The silence which ruled over the scene was suddenly broken by a sharp report from at frost-bitlen tree on the knoll. A fox, which had been trotting jauntily over the sp :rkling field, came to an abrupt halt, one foreleg uplifted. and listened intently for a moment. Then, his doubts satisfied, he continued unconcernedly onward. his small. bright eyes made brighter by the prospects ot' the hearty meal which awaited him in the l':irmcr's henhouse.

A NARROW ESCAPE By Allce Crawford Margie Jones ran down the porch step , calling over her shoulder for her friend, Betty Brown, to hurry. Margie gazed up at the summer sun, which was beaming down pleasantly on the little cottage. A slight breeze rustled through the trees. It was just the day for a plcnlc. She sat down on the steps to walt for Betty, who was putting the finishing touch- es on the lunch. The sprucy-smell of the trees behind the little white cottage filled her nostrils. What a pleasant place this was to spend a summer vacation! A large lawn of green grass reached as far as the sandy beach of the lake. Margie looked across the lake. It was like a large blue mirror stretching into the distance. Everything was ready. A small boat was anchored at the edge of the lake. Henry, Betty! Margie shouted. We don't want to lose any time! Betty came out of the house carrying a large lunch basket. I have everything, she said, even to our bathing suits. The trip across the lake was a great suc- cess. The water was calm and peaceful. The waves rolled lightly against the boat as the girls drifted to the other side. Finally reaching the shore, they jumped out and prepared for a swim. The cool water made them feel intensely hungry, and, when they came out of the water, they were ready to eat the lunch. After lunch they laughed, talked, and told stories. Soon they felt drowsy and dropped off to sleep. Sometime later, Margie awoke to find the sky growing darker. She aroused Betty and said, We'd better start for home, Betty. A storm's coming up. They hurriedly gathered up their belong- ings and rushed for the boat. Already the wind had started to blow quite a gale. The trip home was a bit less pleasant than the one out. The sky was growing darker all the time. The water became choppy, and the wind blew harder. It began to rain, lightly at first, and then to come down ln torrents. The girls became very much frightened. The boat tossed and rolled on the angry waves. Margie tried her best to guide it home, but all ln vain. A large wave dashed over them, then an- other. Oh, Margie! walled Betty. What'll we do? Just then an enormous wave dashed over them, overturning the boat. Margie came to the surface and looked wildly about for Betty. Then she spied her hanging to the boat. She grabbed the boat with one hand and yelled for Betty to hang on. Luckily, both girls could swim well. The waves tossed them to and fro. They tried frantically to put the boat ln its right position. The water seemed to be getting icy cold, making their fingers very numb. Margie, screamed Betty above the roar of the waves, I can't hang on much long- er! Just then Margie heard a faint sound. Could it be her father ln the motor boat? She hardly dared to hope. Hold on! she cried to Betty. I think I hear Dad coming. Then all was suddenly silent, dark, deathlike. All she could remember, later, was her father's lifting her into the boat. The next thing she knew she was safely home in bed. My, but lt felt nice to snuggle down among the warm blankets! As she fell asleep, she could still hear in her ears the roar of the waves. THE MOUSE THAT DIDN'T THINK By Colleen L. Once a trap was baited With a piece of cheese, It tickled so a little mouse, It almost made him sneeze. An old rat said, T'here's danger.

THE B THE SAGA OF THE SEA By Malcolm Berman What stories I can tell! Men have tried for centuries to thwart me. to lay bare my secrets to their fellow mortals, and use me for their greedy ends. I have been subjected to carrying' huge ships of trade upon my surface. 'I'hey have succeeded, in part. My great- est. depth has been revealedg many of my dangerous reefs have been eha.rt,ed. They have even wrested oil from my bosom. But. I am like many. a good servant but a bad master. When I have released my peut-up fury. men, smug and self-satisfied. have trembled. They have seen their mis- take. I am a Trojan horse. taking my toll at times least expected. Beneath my waves there are bodies intern-ed in the creaking bulks of treasure-laden galleons. The irony ol' fate has granted their desire. The extent. of my destruetions knows no bounds. My tidal waves wreak havoc with man's most substantial works. My ty- phoons destroy entire villages. Hark!

MAN'S GREATEST ENEMY By Bryce Lambert Fear is the greatest enemy of many. Our most. famous practitioners of law. medirine. and theology sometimes refrain from in- forming: the world of important findings. because of fear. Why did Louis Pasteur. one ol' our most, noted scientists ot former days. hesitate to try his great discovery? First. he feared the reaction on the part ol' the people. Second. he c-ould not find any- one who would submit, to a trial. Why? Why wouldn't. anyone permit his lite to be saved by I'ast.eur'? Men were all possessed by a dread ot' the results, XYhy does a vhild dis- like to be left alone in a dark room '? IIe was at one time told that a ghost or shadow would get him. so he always will be waiting for that. phantom to come. Fear ran make or break a person. PRESQUE ISLE AGAIN By Eleanor Newhouse There was an old man from Presque Isle Who swallowed three nails and a file. They came out of his chest . And ruined his vest- Now doesn't that call for a smile? AN IDEAL FRIEND By Phyllis Hardy Any friend is a treasure, but an ideal friend ls a gold mine. I have a friend who understands my every mood. She knows just when I need cheering up, and just what to do to lift my spirits. I can trust her ab- solutely, for I know that she would never do anything to hurt me. When I am with her, I feel that I can be utterly crazy, and she will join in with me. Often we have long moments of companlonable silence, with each of us lost deep in her own thoughts. Our interests are the same-and usually our moods. I am always sure that I have a sympathetic listener and a should- er to cry upon, or a fellow conspfrator in mischief. It's a grand, comfortable feeling to have a friend like that. NEARSIGHTEDN ESS By Murlel Roben The eye-doctor said I was a little near- slghted. Maybe that is the reason for my reluctance ln wearing glasses. Well, they are usually to be found at home while I go wandering around wondering who is shout- ing Hello! from across the street, who's ln the car parked at the curb, and if he is waiting for me or someone else. School has been a problem for me. My position in the front row of most of my classes is not due to any love for my teach- ers, but only to my inability to see the board from the back of the room. There ls another advantage of sitting in a front seat. When eye examinations are being held, I usually memorize the rows of let.ters before my turn to be tested. This is very satisfactory until the teacher de- cides to skip around to different letters. I have about all I can do to see the stick which he uses as a pointer then. Oh, why do I have to be blessed with this virtue of vanity? I love to go to the movies and hate to miss any part of them, but it takes all my courage to don those awful spectacles-especially if a good-looking young man is at my side. However, I am far more uncomfortable hearing Errol Flynn speaking and not being able to see him, so I push my pride aside and put on my glasses. Imagine yourself at a dance, wishing a certain young man would ask you for a spin, but not daring to look at him, because, if he should nod or otherwise motion for a dance, you wouldn't know whether he was nodding at you or the girl next to you! My eyes are not really bad. The doctor said so. I'm just afflicted with a slight case of nearsightedness. But - darn! JUDITH By Ruth Nickerson Judith is one that people notice, not for her beauty, but because she is so homely, except when she smiles. Judith is thin, un- usually so, so that her clothes hang lankly upon her. She has a sharp nose and pale, uncertain eyes that dart here and there. If they spy something amusing, they crinkle up at the corners, and her whole face lights up as if by magic. Thus, when she meets people and smiles, they can't help look at her and smile back. ASHES OF MEMORY By Kathryn Gilland I heard the river sing last night Of the joy of an August day, Of the gold glint in the starlight, And the rainbow tlnts in the spray. Last night the tall firs leaped and played, And music echoed on the bay The voice of one we loved, who stayed But the space of a summer day. Tonight the song of the river Is a murmur - half dirge, half prayerg And the waves are all a-quiver With a deep, remorseful despair. Tonight the world is wrapped in a veil Of darknessg its heart is stone. The light falnts from stars that are pale, Memory and I are alone. HOULTON SCORES A POINT By Kay Klnney Instantly everyone had risen to his feet as if by an electric shock. All that was visible was a packed mass of happy, bois- terous faces and wide-open mouths from which issued a variety of cheers. There was a. Rah! Rah! Rah! for Niles! here, Atta boy! there, and a Let's show 'em! somewhere else. It cannot be said, how- ever that the band dIdn't add its noisy bit toward promoting this tumult, as it was the hub for the whole wheel of disorder. Besides having a noisy side, though, this hilarious assemblage of youth was colorful, as they were dressed in gay sweaters-red, green, blue, and yellow ones-with an oc- casional proudly borne H. Upon a closer ex- amination, two other very predominating features of dress were discernible-the popular ski boots and moccaslns. All the girls 'seemed to have an ever-present zest to wear these incessantly-at school or home, work or play. Then the crowd settled back, waiting with anxiety for another breath- taking thrill. ' A TYPICAL SPEAKER By Sanford Plourde When I started to write this treatise, es- say, theme, or whatever it may be-I'm sure I don't know-it was my intention to des- cribe a speaker. But after due consider- ation, I decided that my reader must have had at some time, some place, the oppor- tunity to listen to a speaker who made a lasting impression. As you read this what- ever it may be , keep this person's image before your mental eye, if you please. If you don't like to please, don't do it. He walks out on the stage, rubs his hands together, looks at you, and grins. You think he's funny too, so you grin back. Before you can say Robinson Crusoe , everybody's grinning. Why? This question suddenly seeps into the mind of the audience, whose grins are fast disappearing, but that un- daunted speaker could smlle forever, and he would-if he had the time! But, time be- ing what it is, the speaker becomes serious, straightens his tie, clears his throat-the sounds remind one of the Holland Tunnel -and prepares to deliver his history-mak- ing message. After a series of er's, he begins success- fully. The audience listens to him spell- bound, that is, those who are not asleep or on a trip to China. Having delivered a small portion of his speech, the lecturer decides to tell a joke to Increase his hold on his hear- ers. So, after the necessary prellminaries, which every speaker uses to arouse the at- tention of his lukewarm listeners, he begins his tale. His anecdote told, he ventures a smile. His intelligent audience immediate- ly grasps his smile as the signal and laughs uproariously. In this fashion, the talk con- tinues, punctuated here and there by sup- posedly entertalnlng stories. At last there are the concluding words that the speaker mentioned hours ago. Having uttered his final remark, he bows to the audience and leaves the stage, accom- panied by a burst of applause. Later, per- haps, one of the slumbering listeners, who is just waking up, will congratulate him on he text of his subject. Politeness means un- limited sacrifice. A PHILOSOPHY By Malcolm Berman For what others live, now I cannot sayg But I have often told myself alone The Lord of Hosts shall mortal man condone When time has brought, as must, his dying day, , If he has lived as man should live And thus to those in need did always give. But if he longed for power and for gain, And by his deeds had caused his fellows pain, Then God shall penance give him to endure, To neutralize his sins and make him pure. So, ever do I strive In my small way To comfort folk, although to me unknown. To see them turn and face the world alone Both warm my heart and banish all dismay. MACK, TACK, WHACK By Patsy Waalewyn There once was a boy named Mack, Who put in a chair a tack. Up from her seat, May leaped to her feet, And gave him an awful whack!

A LITTLE COUNTRY TOWN By Arthur McBride The 0116 narrow street, of the little coun- try town lay like a giant serpent basking i11 tl1e sun. O11 either side were the few ru11- down buildings that the town consisted of. It was shortly after noon, and the sun was sending down blankets of shimmering heat that made everything but the grasslioppers look for shade. The geese, having had tlleil' noon-day swi111 i11 the stream behind the t.own-meet,- ing house, were busily preening their feath- ers in the shade provided by Mrs. Green's rosebush.

TIPS TO FRESHMEN By Shirley Titcomb HEAVEN HELP YOU TF -B--You munch candy. gum, or cake dur- ing school hours other than recess. lt's the office, you know. -You lag down the upper corridor on your way to class. That is Miss Adams's territory. - 'You stop to chat with your girl friend in the basement corridor after school. Thatfs where Mr. Wood rules the roost. -You pause to exchange a juicy tid-bit with your dearest pal on the stairs at noon. That is Mr. Marslrs hangout. ff You decide to go on a personal errand before the attendance bell. The home room teachers have eyes in the back ot' their heads. -You don't laugh at Mr. Shermun's jokes. They'rc his pride and joy. --You lean out the windows any hour of the day. It doesn't look nice. These are a few of the most common mis- takes made by you freshmen. They'll both- er you at first. but just watch the timely seniors. and you'll soon catch all the right techniques. HEROES OF SPORT By Philip Boyne Althoufrfh every year a large number ot' new heroes take the limelight. a still great- er number are forgotten. Every once in il while, you will hear someone ask about 'tSo and So , the great back for Yale in '37, or about Such and Such , the great Olym- pic sprinter in '36. Whatever became ot' So and So and Such and Such nobody knows. They just suddenly disappeared from the public eye and haven't been heard of since. The Harmons and Reagans of last year give way to the De Correvonts and the Bertellis of this year. The names of such gridiron guests as Bill Shakespeare and Clint.

The flakes, they wave hello to me, As they go fluttering by. Now it's just a flake or two. And soon lt's millions more. I can see what I must do - Shovel from two to four! MY FAVORITE VIEW By L. Berce Across the road from home is a wind- swept hill, covered mostly with rocks and tall grass. In the latter part of August, I like to go up on this slope and gaze down across the fertile valley. Beneath me, I be- hold fields of golden grain contrasted with acres of green potato tops. All the various- shaped plots seem like parts of a giant crazy quilt spread over the countryside: but, occasionally, one sees a set of farm buildings nestled ln a group of trees. On closer observation, one would -also notice that some fields are literally alive with bug-like creatures that turn out to be men hoelng potatoes and pulling the ever- lasting mustard. Near the men ls a tractor, crawling along the landscape, not unlike a huge worm. The whole vast scene suggests the usual country peace and contentment. I LOVE A STORM By Constance Smith I love a storm, one of a kind That whlrls you about and beats in your face, Snatches your breath with one great blow, And leaves you gasping and weak from the struggle. Let it be rain or let it be snow - Some kind of a storm, lt little matters- I like to feel the snow strike, Or the rain splash, or the wind Hug at my clothes, forcing me back To the snug, warm shelter from whence I came. I try to advance a foot at a time, Only to find that I'm going but inches. So I turn and run back with the storm at my heels. OUR UNITED STATES By Robert Jay If I had the opportunity to travel for a year, I would be satisfied to travel in the United States to see how the different races of people llve, and what they do for a living. , I would like to see the large plants, also the smaller ones that are now working full time for National Defense. I like to meet people, make friends, and see the different ways they have of doing things. It seems people have a different way of doing things, even here in our own little town. It is very interesting to see people working. I would like to see the Capitol Buildings In Washington, and perhaps get a glimpse of our President as he ls going to or from the Whlte House. I would like to see the Rocky Mountains. California, the Golden Gate, and numer- ous places too many to mention. I think that anyone has as many interest- ing and exciting things to see and do in the United States as he could flnd ln any other country in the world, and l believe in the slogan, See America First . A LITTLE HOUSE By Pearl Cunliffe I like a little friendly house That's built among the trees, Where tall and stately hollyhocks Bend with every breeze, A little house where windows clear Are brightly sashed with blue. They seem to beckon gaily, And say, Come on, won't you? And if some day you do go in, I'm quite sure you will find, Within that little friendly house, Someone sweet and kind. And perhaps, if you are tired- For the road was long- That someone in that little house Will cheer you with a song. lt takes a heart of love and faith To build these homes so dear. I'm certain, in the building, That God was very near. THE TWIRLERS Tow row: Scott, Packard, McCutcheon, Cumming, Tracy, Kinney, Nickerson, lllake, Annett. Lower row: Hen1'y. Gardner, Watson.

It seems as though l'm caught among The shadows as they fall, And look into the world of stars. And read their mystic scrnwl. The tiny pin-points up so far lionve all the earth dead black, Until the moon begins to show IM-hind il tzlmarack. JUDY By Phyllis Hardy The very first thing that one notices about .ludy is her eyes. They are a fascin- ating blue-green, fringed with long, da1'k lashes. Judy can joke and keep her fea- tures mobile, but her eyes give her away every time. Her heart-shaped, appealing thee is frann-d by a cloud of red-gold hair thnt allways looks nntnrnl and glorious. She has that fresh type of beauty that enables hc-r to rome in out of il downpour looking lovely instead of like a drowned rat. .Iudy's beauty attrlcts you, but it's her personality that wins you. Her cheerful, happy-go- lurfky outlook on everything intrigues you: but if you should need a shoulder to cry up- on, she is always sympathetic. Her wit and sense of humor-even when she herself is the victim-delight you. Is she the ideal girl? Well 3 perhaps I'm prejudiced. SHORTCUT TO INSANITY By Katherine Downie I never did like poetry, l'n1 not even very bright, But when Miss White says Poetry , Then poetry I must write! I gnash my teeth in agony, My hair slowly turns grayg I think of Longfellow and Poew Did they ever feel this way? Finally, after long hours, When I've become a mental wreck, I find that Shakespeare stole my stuffe- I wish I had him by the neck! IDLE THOUGHTS By Hllda Scott I love to go Where the green grasses grow, With the sky up above ln the blue that I love, With the clouds all in white And the sun shining bright. I love to see, From a knoll near the sea, All the ships that will pass Till they've gone on at last, And the birds in their flight- What a beautiful sight! I love to be Where the soul can be free Where a breeze in the sky Makes the clouds float on by. There beauty and I Can mingle and sigh. lSN'T IT FUN? By Margaret Haggerty lsn't it fun to live, To struggle and strive? lsn't it nlceyto have friends Who encourage and comfort? lsn't it a joy to have Mother and Dad Ever standing behind us? Isn't it a thrill to live in America, Away from Europe's Wars and greed? Isn't it wonderful to have a bed to get into After a long, hard day? lsn't it encouraging to wake each morning To a brand new, spotless day? Isn't it fun to llve. To struggle and to strive? ,i...,....l.. Agent: Is the man of the house ln? Mr. Peabody: He can't be disturbed. I-Ie's upstairs ln his cradle sleeping. SENIOR HISTORY CContinued from Page 65 gether, was pursued by Villain Boyne, but was finally rescued by Hero Grant, to the pleasure of Mama Packard and Papa Hoskin. Others helped with the play, among them Al Madigan, Jean Hanson and Leo Koran. Our senior days were the times when lit- tle Danlel P. Cupid was as actlve as Ralph Grant during a lab period. Edith has had Bun Hale's scalp on her belt and class ring on her finger for quite a few months now. John and Barbara are real old timers. Jo Ann, Bobby or Jim-you figure that one out-we can't. Ruth and another Ralph, and Mary Ann and Phil are a few of the couples where Dannie has scored a bull's eye. The girls' basketball team, made up en- tirely of senior girls, Elsa, Shirley, Donna, Marion, Kay, Arlean, Janette, Rena, Muriel, Betty, Ruth, and Virginia, was undefeated. They mowed down such teams as Brewer, Calais, Washburn, and Stearns. The girls gave Calais their first defeat in three years, beat Stearns at ,Millinocket, fsomethlng no other Houlton girls' team has donej, and scored over fifty points in the last game falso something no other Houltonx girls' team has accomplishedj. Here's to the class of 1942! Houlton High is a grand place, and we have had a good time. We'll always remember the circuses, the games, plays, speaking contests, and dances in the gym. We'll always have a great memento -- our memories of H. H. S. Freshman: I know something I won't tell. Mr. Marsh: Never mind, little girl. You'll get over that when you're a little older. Mr. Lambert in assembly: Anyone caught shooting rubber bands will be severely punished for wasting vital mater- ials. - R , k sw-x, W i Q X 5 U 5 ww x S V 5 . . 5 W S' ., h., A 4 Q , ... 1 ' ws W - 45 YW.

We stand for lihcrly, equality, and justice. We stand for our con- stitution, and each small part of it stands for us. Even the initials of our country, U. S. , spell us. Will we lie down and let the other fellow do it? Will we succumb to the tyranny of the Axis powers? Will we lose our very ideals? We will not! Together we'll pull the tyrants from their precarious seats. With our heads and hearts high, we'll march out. victors. With us will march our ideals. Why? Because we are Ameri- cans!

Assemblies I am sure we are all agreed that the best chapel of this year was the special one, You Can Defend America! Everyone - pupil, teacher, and visitor - left the audi- torium with a clearer idea fo how we can help and with an inspired ambition to help As every year, the opening assembly is an introduction of teachers to the students, and the Honor Society had charge of the second. Its motto and ideals were explain- ed to the new members. In January, Miss Black and her room presented a short one-act comedy about women in business, starring Virginia Cum- ming, Lois Hall, Anna McCutcheon, and Lorraine Murchie. The boys' H-Club initiates drew a riot of laughs as they went through their anticsg for example, John Mooers was treated as a baby. Others sang, etc. In March, with hated breath, we watched the tumbling corps do its stuff . Also, presented by room six, was a short patriotic ptgeant symbolizing America with Ruth Nickerson as the Statue of Liberty. A group of students. including Juanita Shea, Shirley Varney, Eleanor Newhouse, Leo Koran, Horace MacGowan, and Sanford Plourde, pledged allegiance to the flag and followed with the singing of America . After a postponement or two, Mr. Marsh's famous cowboy chapel was given. This musical and laugh-getting assembly is al- ways one of the most anticipated chapels of the year. Mr. Marsh is always at his fun- niest with the aid of his fellow players. Elsa Bostrom was the leading lady with Bill Madigan, who sang three songs, as her co-star. Other singers were Mary Ann Young, Albert Madigan, Carol Gardner, Mary Jane Gorham, and Leo Koran. The whole program was in the form of a play. At that time, there was the largest number of visitors this year. Two representatives from colleges, Pro- fessor Brown of Bowdoin and Professor Wright of Bates, came to give interesting talks in special assemblies. In March, the honor parts and honor roll were announced by Mr. Lambert. Also, Major Reid gave a fine singing perform- ance. We asked for encore after encore. I-Iere's hoping he'll come again soon! Once a month, a minister has spoken to us. Movies, free or with a small charge, were given quite often. There was one special assembly when representatives from the telephone company explained to us the new dial system. The Curtis cam- paign started off with a bang in the fall, with another Mr. Sprague keeping the students laughing while he explained the work and prizes. All in all, this has been a year of many interesting chapels, long to be remembered. P. W. Clubs Eighteen years ago, the boys' H-Club was organized in Houlton High. Since Mr. Lambert has been our principal, he has also been the club's faculty adviser. This year, there are petween forty and forty-five mem- bers, all of whom have earned their letter ln some sport. The officers who are serv- ing are: president, Ralph Taylor: vice president, Dick Niles, and secretary-treas- urer, Robert Russell. The new members were initiated in an assembly which was entertaining to both the participants and the audience. The boys have full charge of school fire drills and are very prominent in air raid drills. Mr. Lambert is also the adviser of another fine organiadtion in this school. This is the Hi-Y Club. Since it was the first to be organized in Aroostook County, it chose the name, The Aroostook Chapter Hi-Y of Houlton High School. The twenty-five members represent all the local churches and every school activity. This year's offi- cers are: John Hoskin, president: Ken Lar- son, vice presldentg and Kenneth Wetmore, The boys have had secretary-treasurer. three suppers this year, after which they The sunlight dances, enjoyed speakers. which were held in the gym, were sponsor- ed by this club. In May, the members at- tended the annual Hi-Y Conference at Fort Fairfield. There were twelve representa- tives at the state convention at Waterville from H. H. S. last year. The Glee Club, thirty-four strong, has participated in both music nights. Miss In- galls, who recently resigned, is being re- placed by Miss Wilson. There were no offi- cers elected this year. May 9, the glee club will go to Presque Isle for the music festi- val. The girls are also planning a supper for some time before school closes.

To become a member of the Honor So- ciety. a person must have, for two years, an average of ninety or more. Membership is withdrawn if a membe-r's rank drops below this at any time. The motto is Noblesse Oblige ' -- From those who have attain- ed much, much is expected . The officers are Arlene Taylor, president, Ken Larson, vice presidentg secretary, Jeanne Bitherg treasurer, Alice Crawford, the executive committee, Patricia Waalewyn and Paul Bither. This year, the members have spon- sored a dance and a movie. and are plan- ning a May Day Dance, the profits of which will be used to buy pins for the senior mem- bers. Miss Adams is the supervisor of the Girls' H-Club. Every girl has earned an H in some extra-curricular activity as tennis, basket- ball, cheer-leading, etc. Last fall the girls entertained the Bar Harbor football team with a movie and dance. On March 20, a dance was held in the gym. A mid-winter supper was held to which each member in- vited a teacher as guest. The initiation will take place sometime this spring. The officers are president. Shirley Titcomb: vice president, Marie Gartleyg secretary. THE CHEERLEADERS Ross. Pope. and Gardner Janette Hallettg and treasurer, Ruth Nick- erson.

The thirteen girls in the all-girl Tumbling Corps have won recognition this year with their brilliant act. The senior division en- joyed their act in Miss White's chapel on March 4. On April 15, the girls performed in Miss Donovan's junior division chapel. The tumblers also performed at the Odd Fellows dance on March 27.

They plan to at- tend the music festivals in Presque Isle and Bangor in May. The English Club has had two initiations and suppers. 'The first was last fall with the supper held in the Unitarian Church. The second was this spring, and the supper was held in the Dux Club. At the beginning of the year, the members sold H. H. S. cal- endars, and this winter they sold H. H. S. stickers. The money from these projects and from the Literator , a paper of stories by students, bought green-gold pins and pendants for the seniors.

Vice-president ls Bryce Lambert, the secretary is Ruth Nickerson and the treasurer, Patty Russell. The group plans to study call phases of the stage life-acting, make-up, managing, and so forth. B. McN. and C. G. , . 'kirir THE DREAMERS By Edith Dickinson Youth dreams of the future-a golden future brimming over with opportunities for everyone. Some, through their optimist- lc eyes, see an ideal vision, lofty castles in the air supported by roseate hopes. Other youthful dreamers, well-satisfied with their present state, see only a continuity of love, happiness, and contentment. However, the most typical dreams of youth are those of the adventurous. These. setting out to conquer the world, see no road too rough or journey too long for their eager feet. Although their heads are ln the clouds, their castles have foundations in ambition and courage. These dreams are only youthful fancies-yet tl1e hope of the world. SAND By Louena Merrithew Before us lay a wide stretch of white sand, sand-that delightful, mercury-like substance which slithers ticklishly between naked toes, giving one a pampered feeling of leisure and well-being. Bathed by both sun and sea, swirled into fantastical shapes by the wind, made picturesque with care- lessly strewn, weatherbeaten driftwood and dried seaweed, it begins each dawn with a clean past-all memories of yesterday hav- ing been smoothly erased by the high tide.
