Not that your age excel In pride of life the ages of your sires, But that you think clear, feel deep, bear fruit well, The friend of Man desires.H 9 I A M E D U C A T I,O N By Henry Van Dyke I BEAR the torch that enlightens the world, fires the imagination of man, feeds the flame of genius. I give wings to dreams and might to hand and brain. From out the deep shadows of the past I came, wearing the scars of struggles and the stripes of toil, but bearing in triumph the wisdom of all ages. Man, because of me, holds dominion over the earth and seag it is for him I leash the lifhtning, plumb the deep, shackle the ether. I am the parent of profress, creator of culture, molder of destiny. Philosophy, science, and art are the Works of my hand. I banish ignorance, discourage vice, disarm anar- chy. Thus have I become freedom's citadel, the arm of demo- cracy, the hope of youth, the pride of adolescence, the joy of age. Fortunate the nations and happy the homes that wel- come me. N The school is my workshopg here I stir ambitions, stim- ulate ideals, forge the keys that open the door to opportune ity. I am the source of inspiration, the aid of aspiration. I am irresistible power. 10 -7 KA! , ,I 1. , -. A ':,f 'A .gz.f',.i if-3. IT. ' 3 fe-3Q3EgQ?.gwee?g 12? :r'4'3 :. ::f f .i5'r x . - -fs r,- 4 - 9 ' ' 5 . , , , P' I - 1 . . 1 .

High School. Of course we probably looked very green to the Seniors, even though we thought ourselves quite dignified. ' About two weeks after we had been in school we were given a re- ception by the sophomores. . . After Christmas vacation, Bernice Smith was welcomed to our group. Our first year was enjoyed very much under the supervision of Principal Rollins. ' - Both boys and girls had a basketball team and won quite a few games The following September when we came back to school our class was divided into two divisions. Mrs. Dyke and Mr. Roland Wilkins were our home room teachers. We were very much pleased to have two more students added to our class, Rowena and Thomas Fairchild. i' Returning as juniors we had Mrs. Grant for our home room teacher. In the spring we presented the play dBashfpl Mr. Bobbsu, under the supervision of Mrs. Grant. We made it an hmusual success, giving us sufficient funds for the reception to the seniors.5 V We began in May to prepare for the reception and on June 14th it was given. Everyone had a very enjoyable time and remarked on the beautiful decorations. A ' c ' 'H September, 1956, we all assembled in Mrs. Bradbury's room for our last year together. New there were only twenty-four left out of a class of sixty-two. I W . The seniors presented nHe was a Gay Senoritau as the class play. It was given at the usual places, except that we played at Canton in- stead of New Sharon. In April the minstrel show, HThe Dark-town Folliesu, was presented for the benefit of the juniors and the seniors. .-. .1 Genevieve Smith '57 . HTHE FUTURE FOR SOME OF USU For the class of nineteen hundred and thirty seven, many things have occurred in the last four years, important things and things not so important. y While I was our for a ride the other day, I happened to come in contact with many of my pals. The first one was George Donald. I asked him what he thought the future held for him, and he said he was going to work as an artist, drawing funny pictures to amuse pupils in school., As I came a little farther down the line I saw Bernice Smith. She said that she was going out for the next dancing marathon that occurred, providing she could get a good partner, like Woodrow Wilson As I came down still farther south, I saw Stillman Morse, and what do you suppose he is planning to do? Well, he's going to build a new road from Jay Village to Chisholm, so it won't be so hard for him to walk back and forth. While talking with him, I asked about Tommy and Rowena Fairchild. He stated that they were at home. The first I saw was Tommy. I asked about his plans for the future. He said he was going to build a road 21 1 from where Stillman left off, over to Stones Corner. I asked for 1 Rowena, he said that she was downjnear the river.behind her house. I went down where she was. At first glimpse I thought maybe she was going.to take a swim, but to mylsurprise I found that she was picking up tooth-picks which had come dbwn in the flood last spring. She must be planning to keep house or to' do-fa 'lot of cooking... - -As-I was leaving Rowena, I met Ernest Morton and Margaret Parker. I asked Margaret about her future plans., She said she thought perhaps she would build a new dance pavilion at North Turner. I asked Ernest about himself. He has decided to work for a newspaper company. I - believe itfs the Sun. ' .Q . ,. Q ' Before leaving Jay, I saw Edwin Adams cemingfacross the bridge. - Eg hasndecided to work in a match factory sojhe can see things by the ross . N f V I went home for the time being, and called it a dayw The next day I started out again. The first one.I saw was David McKenney. Imagine it! He's decided to invent a new car, I believe it's a Ford. He wants one that will go anywhere, any old time. J .1 , ' When I get down to Chisholm I saw Carmen Ditata. She's going to be a nurse, so she can look into pretty faces. While I was talking with Carmer, Arthur and Querino Benedetto came along. I asked about their plans. Arthur has decided to go West and play for the cow-boy round-ups. Querino is going to become boss of the I. P. Mill if they will keep him long enough. , While talking with them I asked about Raoul Henry and Raoul Roy. They are still undecidcd'what to do. About this time Thomas Crotcau camo along. I asked him about his plans for the future. He has decided to follow in his dad's footesteps, so patronize him well. I also saw Ann- ette Duguay down there. ,She has decided to go to school to vamp other girls. ' - - , ' ' ' I I started out for the open country. As'I get over to.Stones Corner I saw Genevieve and Arnold Smith. Arnold's plans are very definite. He has decided to work for the first company he can which has the name UStevensU in it. 1Genevicve is still undecided just what to do, but I believe she is going to try to get into the movies as a tap-dancer. Still riding in the country, I camo back over Macombor Hill. On the way down this side, I saw Ralph Noyes. He was also working on his FOPG. He has decided to invent a Ford that will go by David McKenney or keep ahead of him all the time. ' ' ' Aileen Mqceurt 'sv What does it matter what duty Falls to the lot of man?

The play was all the name im- , w plies. He , played by Tommy Fairchild, was a very active, helpful young fellow who dressed up as a gay Spanish girl to help his pal out of a scrape. Of course as a lady he was a flop, but as a heartbreaker for Patsy the chauffer and as a Nnervous prostratorn for Danial Benjamin, the dignified old Hcrab,n he was perfect.

This acquisition will aid in making you an intelligent citizen of state and nation, a trustworthy, respected, and desired companiong a connoisseur of the beauty and se- renity in the finer things of life. -Second--It should be the aim and ambition of each student to form habits of promptness, accuracy, neatness, and thoroughness in his or her work, for habits formulated during the adolescent period generally become measures of success or failure among adults. By success I do not necessarily mean monetary reward. The word actually means a pros- perous termination of an attempt whether that attempt be mental, physi- cal, or social. Do not misuse spare school time. Moments idled away during school days are irretrievable. Be thankful that you are fortunate enough to have periods during school hours in which you can add to your knowledge Allow a consideration of the boys and girls who are deprived of your educational opportunities by the vicissitudes of life to influence you to use your time to the best advantage. , Third--That you may always remember to act like gentlemen and ladies in your conduct towards your teachers and fellow students is my third wish. Gentlemen and ladies do not destroy personal property, do not display excessive outbursts of temper, do not use either slanderous or imprecatory remarks. School etiquette requires of students neatness in appearance and surroundingsg courtesy, obedience and respect toward elders. Fourth--I hope that you will formulate logical and systematic habits of study so that the conclusions you desire may be based on rea- son instead of emotion. Such habits carried into life will prove most beneficial to your welfare. , Fifth--Students should endeavor to create and foster among them- selves an inseparable bond that will endure throughout life. True friendship is priceless, it makes bitter, gloomy moments sweet, and serene, happy moments sweeter. Sixth--Although you individuals have an important part to play in the continuance and progress of society, you should not feel that your opinions are the only ones that are important. You should consider those of your neighbor, for his may be right. You must realize that you are only a minute spoke or cogiin the Wheel of Life. Seventh--It is my wish that you realize that the efforts of your teachers are concentrated on your development. You should profit by your contacts with them so that when you go forth to face life you will be well equipped to solve its great problems. Whether you are aware of the fact or not, you learn more from teachers than from the subject 27 matter which they teach, School boards take this idea into consideration when they select teachers to guide the learning of the young people of their com unities, Cultivate the friendship of your teachers and imbibe to the utmost the results of the training of those desirable characters, Ei ith--If you are to become good citizens of our country you will pave e way by performing your daily tasks so methodically and willingly that you will unconsciously formulate character traits that will aid ' you later in making our country a better place in which to live, to work, and to play. Ninth--Whenever you feel that school life is becoming monotonous and you desire to lag or to leave school, think'of your parents, Their sacrifices for you are greater than you realize, The fact that you are in school shows that they want you to have the opportunities of which they were probably deprived, Be ever mindful and appreciative of the truest friends that life can give--your parents, Stephen J, Drottar I shall so greatly need the space a mf r Within my heart for keeping JL ' A t All loveliness, I must forget r The ugly and the weeping. I must pluck out assidously The stubborn pain, the sorrow, Q Lest in my heart there be no inch Q X For beauties come to-morrow. --Elaine Evans 28 NAHE NICWNAME Edwin Adams Antonio Balsamo Querino Benedetto Arthur Beneaetto Thomas Croteau Carmen Ditata Annette Luguay George Lonald Ronena Fairchila Thomas Fairchild Raoul henry Sanarina marchetti Aileen lcCourt Luvid ieKenney Ernest Morton Stillmanyiorse Raloh Noyes morgoret Parker Raoul Roy Lorraine Richora Frank Slovak Arnold Smith Bernice Smith Genevieve Smith Hgoamsy I. !lTOny !l HOB!! !lBgnfLy ff ukellyn VShortieH ymunseyy yGeorgieH VSunshineH llfofnmy !l ukoun L fSandyV !fLeefl llbavell Hlonasy Hoishoty MLM cj, ll ,lm Ll 6 y HShieky E!! yfrsnkiey -t ll yBunT 1 ucenn I some STATISTICS 6 To beta dancing teacher Second Clarke Gable Italian Baritone Second Rubinoff he a slou ualker Second uae West To get her man To be an Olymbic Champ To become an actress To leaa a band To Fall in love To be z,oresident's ' aije A housewife UWWNNN MWUHSMG MHNM Noisy Swing Swing Lear ' H A , e - mother-in-lau hitty La Paloma Fair Aria from HGolden ' -H- -'- is Butterfly honsensical Kia in the Three ' e .'.

' , --John Oxenham Tonight we launchg where shall we anchor? For four years we who are seniors have worked together in high school, sometimes wondering for what purpose. Our teachers have endeavored to show us ideals and how to form ideas. Soon we are to leave the guidance of the school room only to enter the greater school of life. Daily we shall meet tests which try our mental and moral strength when we shall need to make choices without the enceuragenent or guid-' ance of sympathetic associates. rHave we learned to be honest, trustworthy and fearless? Can We take just criticism unflinch ingly and cheerfully, and profit by it? Have we learned fair play and team work? Can we always remember that the test is not so much that we win or lose--but how did we play the game? Let us all strive for clean living and thinking which help to bring lasting success in life so that when our class motte shall be answered for each one of us our fellow men will say we have chosen the high way fer the seul. , u v v v U sl v v x.: mf Editer4in-chief sf -I 1, nf sp n U v u U u up u v u xr v v U u u u u v u u v u u nf nf nl u u v u v v v E Are you in earnest?

It shouldnlt be done like that. nYou ought to make it longer, more in the shape of a bat.u The child-took the advice given and proceeded to mold it again. He had just-finished to perfection saying, 'live done what I can.n When another voice advised him to make it more like a ball. nlt ought to be rounder and shorter, not so long nor so tall.u Many times that morning our friend had to shape his clay. For many went by to be satisfied while he sat there at play. It was eighteen years later when we find in this same place. Our friend just back from college with a smile on his face. He was working, working industriously laying a cement walk. He stopped a minute to greet a friend who had lingered to talk. nGlad to see you back, Jack, but for heavens sake ThatYs not way to fix this walk, and he caught up a rake. New our young friend interposed, looking up with a grin Ulf you donit mind Iill leave it this way, Ifve just get it in.H Though many gave advice as he worked there that day He just answered with a grin and continued to do it his way Therefs a moral to this story, though it may be hard to find Ifm sure you will see it when I say it concerns the mind. Yes from.birth until death we are influenced by our surroundings, A child will do what others do, for he knows not the result ' ' it brings. Our minds are molded and shaped like the clay in the first of my theme As youngsters we depend on others for our knowledge of life and itfs scheme. But if we can go to high school, what a blessing that really is, An opportunity in this life that we should all try not to miss. We learn to meld our own mind in the best possible way, We can pick our path to follow, and stay there day by day. College fellows this, where we gain confidence and poise. For an education is necessary for one wherever he goes. nGet an educatienn should be the sign post on every street, For that is the only thing to keep one standing on his feet. .-..n., , -Z Assistant Editor -seeseeeeeeeeeeaeeeeeeeeeeeaeeeaeaeaeeeaeeeeeeeeeeeeaeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaeeeaeeeeeeeeeeeeeaeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaeeeeeeeesee - Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith 4 - let us to the end dare to do our duty as we understand it.

Peter Gagnon was our only member to drop out of school. Still we remain the high number of forty- six. There are- eleven pupils taking the college course, nine- teen taking the general, and six- teen the commercial. The ,offi- cers of this happy class' are: Priscilla Longley, presidentg Doris Swift, vice-president, Bea- trice Adams, secretary, and Neil LeBlanc, treasurer. We juniors are a very excel- lent class for sports. The girls who received letters for their work in basketball are: Florence Farnham, Angela Benedetto, Pris- cilla Longley, Katherine Doiron, Doris Swift, Eila Hill, and Marie Hamel. The boys who received their basketball letters are: Carl Pomeroy and Minnie Wilkins, and they certainly earned them. Several of the juniors are taking baseball: Jimmy Wilkins, Harold Foster,-and Neil LeDland. A softball team has been started this year as usual with a few of the juniors joininm it. Dennis Croteau, ' Carl .Poms eroy, and Elwin McDonald received their letters on the track team. The juniors usually have a junior play, but changes have been made this year. Instead, we had a School Minstrel in which many juniors took part. Work on the gJunior-Senior Reception is under way with the Priscilla the Deco- following committees: Longley is Chairman of rative Committee, and, with Ethe help of other junior members, the gym will take on a jolly appear- ance. I'm sure that this will be a happy occasion for all, Beaa trice Adams is Chairman of the Executive Committee assisted by Phyllis Berube, Katherine Doiron, and Marguerite Perry. - The members 'of then junior class are very musical, with many taking orchestra this year. Several of the juniors took part in our school paper, HBrecz- esu. As News Editor,'Robert Con- stantg as Exchange Editor, Elwin McDonald3 as Advertising Manag- ers, Eila Hill and Marie Hamelg as Circulation Manager, Edith Brooks, and as home room report- er, Jeannette Duguay. In closing, the juniors all join together as a happy family saying, HWe're all going to come back next year as seniors. Jeannette Duguay '58 CLASS OF '39 In September 1955 our class entered Jay, High School as 71 green HFreshies.h We'll have to admit that we were rather timid at first, but we soon overcame that. ' Later on came our Reception from the Sophomorcs at which a few were initiated, but we all had a fine time. At a special class meeting we elected the following officers for our first year: president, Joan Fournierg vice-president, Richard Johnsong secretary, Nor- man Bryantg treasurer, Vincent Doiron. They all proved to be very satisfactory. l Quite a few managed to keep on the honor roll all their first year. I . Our boys had an excellent freshman basketball team, winning nine games out of eleven. X ' The first year of our high school life passed very quickly and.pleasantly. The next fall we started back to school with about 58 in the class. We gave the Freshmen a Wel- coming Reception which seemed to be a success. This winter we purchased our class rings which bear a very beautiful emblem, we think. We have some real athletes in the class, for quite a few, both girls and boys, are starring in basketball while others are aiming to be famous trackmen. Some are also playing baseball and softball. We have found our first two years at dear old Jay High very enjoyable. The teachers have been very cooperative, always ready to lend a helping hand, and we appreciate it very much. Marjorie Gould '59 FRESHMAN ANNUAL REPORT The Freshman class of 1937, though not a very large class, consisted of fifty-one members at the. beginning of the year. Now that number has sadly decreased to only forty-three. For unknown reasons, eight have left school. Perhaps they found too lit- tle excitement and too many stud- ies. Even though there is work to be done, interesting events happen daily. Most of them will probably wish, in the future, that they had continued their schooling for many new and inter- esting friends can be found in high school. Also, in most in- stances, education is a key to the door of success. . Five freshmen are taking the College course, with many Roman Gods to puzzle over in mtatin. Miss Gordon sees to that! Twenty girls and two boys are following the commercial course, sometimes disappointed over the mark on their rank card for General Sci- ence. Mr. Legge says they do not study. Is it true? The rest, sixteen boys, are taking General course. Quite some arguments you have with Mr. Hickey over Eng- have with Mr, Hickey over Eng- lish, boys. Many sports, such as basket- ball, baseball, softball and high jumping have been enjoyed by both boys and girls. A few basketball games were played by Jay Fresh- men boys vs Chisholm and North Jay Grammar Schools. There were some smiling victories for the Jay boys, too. Richard Currier is the only boy of this class to enter track and is doing fine. Margaret Cou- ture is the only girl to take softball in the Freshman class. Nearly half the Freshman girls are in the pchorus, sand Naomi Morton, Virginia Latham, Paul LaBrecque, Dorothy Fletcher, Thelma Gross and Philip Wright are in the orchestra. Naomi and Paul play Hawaiian guitarsg Virginia, the pianog and Dorothy, Thelma and Philip play the violin. Three receptions were tended the Freshmen this year, with games, dancing, and refreshments enjoyed by all. The Freshmen in- tended to have a hot-dog roast but with the Senior Socials it wouldn't fit in. I think it worthy to mention the fact that in the contest to sell Breezes, James Tweedie help- ed to win a nice new pencil sharpener for the Main Room and a big box of chocolates for him- self. Congratulations and many friends, at once, for Jimmy., There is a bustle going on now, for everyone is selecting his or her course and studies for next year. If all the Freshmen do next year, as Sophomores, as well as they did this year, there ought to be a good Sophomore Class at Jay High School.

':Dickehs1- I Q living. He must thoroughly grasp the fact that THE SUPREME COURT An American citizen will never understand the form of government under which he is living unless he understands why we must have a Supreme Court.- And he will nevcr understand why we must have a Supreme Court until he understands the form of government under which he is the existence of the American form of government--a federal republic with limited national powers, a system of checks and balances--implies and requires for its preservation the existence of a Supreme Court. of such a republic is inseparably bound up with Court The honorable existence the existence of a having authority to enforce the limitations of National powers. No conviction is deeper in my mind,n said Daniel Webster, Hthan that the maintenance of the Judicial power is essential and indispen- sable to the very being of this government. The Constitution, without it, would be no Constitution--the Government, no Government. Q1 the absolute necessities of the case, the judges of the Supreme Court be- come judges of the extent of Constitutional powers. Suppress its function, and the Constitution ceases to be a supreme law capable of enforcement, and becomes whatever the Congress, from time to time, decides it shall be.n ' ' The Supreme Court is the guardian of the people and of the Con- stitution. It is composed of none members, appointed for life, or during good behavior, by the president. The Chief Justice receives a salary of j20,500 and the other Justices a salary of 320,000 per year.. These men are old, experienced in the ways of government, and are above reproach in every respect. They are fearless and independent of person al feelings. That the Court has, from the outset, proved itself to be fully as ready to curb the President as Congress, if either had exer- cised power not granted, is shown by many episodes in its historyg and their independence was evinced by the Justices of the Court within three years after the inauguration of the first Court, when, in August, 1795, they made it plain that theyxvould not render a decision or give any judicial opinion, even to the President, unless in an actual case brought by parties before them as a Court. And although it appears that it was the popular expectation that they would render advisory opinions Kin the same manner as the Justices of the Massachusetts Su- preme Judicial Court did under the State Constitutionl, they refused, very firmly, though respectfully, to render to President Washington an advisory opinion which he had sought from them on the complicated questions then arising out of the neutral attitude of the United States in the war between Great Britain and France. In his letter to Washingtor announcing this refusal by the Court, Chief Justice Jay said, UThe lines of Separation drawn by the Constitution between the three depart- ments of the government, these being in certain respects checks upon each other ---- afford strong arguments against the propriety of our extrajudicially deciding the questions alluded to.H This shows the independence of the Court as a whole. That the in- dividual judges are just as independent is shown by the case of Justice Story, a Democrat, who had been appointed to the Court, by the Democratic president, Madison, only ten months prior to the case in question. Story was a young man of 55. The war of lSl2 had begun, and the Ad- ministration was vitally interested in prosecuting and convicting the CESCS of Americans, who had been guilty of unlawful trade with the enemy, England, Such a case came up before Judge Story, in which, the 41 defendant pleaded that a proclamation of President Madison revising an embargo law, under which the indictment had been found, was illegal. Judge Story was thus called upon to decide upon the legality of the action of a President who had just appointed him to office, and upon its legality as bearing upon a class of case in which the President and his Administration were vitally desirous of obtaining convictions. Story, in spite of his youth and his personal and political predilections, without hesitation held the action of the President to have been illegal, and the prisoner vent free. HFor the Executive Department of the Gov- ernment, this Court entertains the most profound respect,U said the Judge, Hbut it is our duty to expound the laws as ve find them in the records of the States, and we cannot, when called upon by the citizens of the country, refussjour opinion, however it differs from that of any high authority. I do not perceive any reasonable ground to imply an authority in the President to revive this Act, and I must, therefore, with whatever reluctance, pronounce it to have been, as to this purpose, invalid.' . A It is one of the glories of the American Federal Judiciary that both the Supreme Court and its Justices have shown as complete inde- pendence of the Executive as of Congress. They have never hesitated to curb any usurpation of power by the Eiecutive or to hold invalid an Ezecutive's action, if it was an action unwarranted by the Constitution or by a constitutional statute. Furthermore, the Supreme Court has not hesitated to curb the officers of the law and the Judges of the inferior Courts, whenever the latter have acted in violation of the Constitution, and in a number of instances where the rights guaranteed to individuals by the Bill of Rights in the Constitution--such as the right against unreasonable search and seizure, the right not to be forced to testify against oneself, and similar rights--have been infringed, the Supremo 'Court has held the actions of United States attorneys, police officers, magistrates, and Judges to be invalid, and to constitute grounds for - setting aside a conviction or an imprisonment of the citizen complaining of the action. ' Of late years, and particularly since the famous N. R. A. decision of the Court, the representatives of organized Labor have been partic- ularly active in opposition to the Supreme Court's power to pass upon athc validity of Acts of Congress. The Court has been frequently de- nounced by them as prejudiced against Labor in its decisions. And either through misapprehension of the purport of those decisions, or, through lack of knowledge as to the facts, the impression has been given that the proposal for an Hinfusing of new bloodu into the Court will relieve them from decisions unfavorable to them--whereas the truth is' that special Labor interests were concerned in very few of the cases in which Acts of Congress have been held invalid. There exists so much misunderstanding as to what the Supreme Court has actually decided in Labor cases that it is desirable that a complete statement be made. What are the actual facts as to the Court's record in cases specifically involving Labor? The Court has decided about one hundred such cases. Of these, not more than twenty were decided in a manner which Labor might term adverse to its interests, and of these twenty, it should be noted that only si: involved the constitutionality of an Act of Congress. Of the others, six-involved questions of statutory construction under the Sherman and Clayton Act and other Federal Lawsg two involved no questions of statute, State or Federal, but simply decided questions of general law, and six' involved the constitutionality of a State statute. ' A' 42 Therefore, let Labor note that, so far as regards the six decisions concerning the Sherman and Clayton Acts or other Acts, and the two merely diciding questions of general law, Congress may at any time, by appropriate changes, alter the law that has been interpreted by the Courts. One-of the favorite forms of attack upon the Supreme Court's ex- ercise of the power to pass upon the valadity of Acts of Congress is to allege that it makes the Court superior to Congress, that it destroys the independence of the three coordinate branches of the Government. This charge, however, is unfounded. It proceeds from a complete misunderstanding of fundamental principles of the American Constitution. When we speak of the three co-ordinate branches of the Government, if we mean by Hco-ordinaten that the Congress, the Executive, and the Judiciary are each a complete governmental body exercising its own peculiar func- tion, we use the word accurately. If, on the other hand, we mean gpm- pletely independent of the other, and not subject to be affected in any way by the other--then it is entirely untrue that the Constitution was ever intended to make, or did make, the three branches nco-ordinaten to that extent. When the framers of the Constitution established a new Federal Government with three independent branches--a President, a Congress, and a Supreme Court--they did not intend, nor did they provide, for a Government in which these three branches of each other. should be absolutely independent The framers constituted a Government in which not only should each branch have limited powers for itself, but each branch should also have a curb or check on the operation of the other. This is what is meant when we speak of the American Government balance.u p However, it is frequently forgotten that this judicial chock is never applie or the President. The Court does not uve Congress. It is because this fact is so as being one of uchecks and in the discussion of the questic directly to either Congress ton or nannuln an Act of often overlooked that much of the talk has arisen about the interference of the Court with Congress and the President. Ag armatter of-fact, the question of the Conatitutior does not arise directly between the Court and Congress, or between the Court and the President. It arises only in which, the plaintiff of the suit claims that the defendand based on an Act of Congress or on and in which case, the defendant claims that the right because the Act of Congress or the in some suit brought in a Court, he has a right against an action of the Presidc: plaintiff has no such Presidential action was an in- fringement of the Constitution, or it may arise in some suit in Court in which a defendant bases his defense on an Act of Congress or on a Presidential action, and the plaintiff claims that such Act or action is of no defense because it was a violation of the Constitution. Then the Supreme Court's duty is simply to decide whether these contentions, by the plaintiff and by the defendant respectively, are valid, and whether, in fact and in law, the Act of Congress, or of the President, was or was not in accordanee'with the provisions of the Constitution. When we look at it in this light it is plain to be seen that the Supreme Court does not decide questions of Government--it decides cases of law, and these cases decide the questions of the Government. And so, in closing, let me ask: nDo those who wish Congress to be free to act in conflict with the Constitution, unchecked by the Court, also wish the President to have the same privilege--to be, in other words, a virtual dictator?n A 43- The question has been strikingly put by a President of the Amer, ican Bar Association: UShall we say that when an American stands be- fore the Court demanding rights given him by the Supreme law of the land, the Court shall be deaf to his appeal?. Shall wrongs visited up- on him by the illegal acts of Congress and the President be less open to rebuke than those which he may suffer from subordinate Courts, or shcriffs, or military tyrants, or civilian enemies?e If this be so, if in any such case, the ears of the Court are to be closed against him-- then it is not the power of the Court that has been reduced, but the dearly bought right of the citizen that isltakon away.U Therefore, let us repeat this toast which was given early in history at a dinner in Washington, 1801: - E Q - ' NThe Judiciary of the United Statesa-independent of ' y partyg independent of the desire for powerg and independent '. of popu1arity.n , To this let us add: ' T .

No one in crime life, heedlcss of the high or low position he holds, is safe from our Secret Service men. This is a picture we may safely retain and cherish. The most publicized work of our Secret Service at the present time is the guarding of the president of our country. Although this duty is of vast importance, it is only one of the Scrvice's manifold activities. There are five billions of dollars continually in circulation in the United States. The introduction of any considerable quantity of counterfeit money imperils the value of all of the money in the country. This also applies to the billions of dollars in government bonds, the millions of postage stamps, all of which are subject to forgery. It is the duty of our Secret Service men to apprehend and bring to trial they ones responsible for the forgery. There are the Intelligence Department men, who are always after gangsters, kidnappers, violators of the income tax law, etc. The head of the Intelligence unit is Elmer L. Irey. Under his leadership, this unit has the so-called underworld Uheroesn. It is no longer subject to Hollywood glorification or youthful worship. y The next unit of the government is the Narcotic Bureau, with H. J. Anstinger as head of it. This department has more information on Narcotr than any other institution in the world. It is known what section of the country is using the most, how it is obtained, and other such im- portant knowlodge. As a result of this knowledge, the Narcotic Bureau r has been able to reduce the number of drug addicts in the United States to one-fourth its number of four years ago. ' f The custom Service department also comes under the Secret Service. This branch, directed by Thomas Gorman, is continually at war with pro- fessional and criminal smugglers, both on land and at sea. The man at A Q4 the head of this law enforcement division is Edison J. Shamhart, a veteran of the smuggler wars. The Alcohol Tax enforcement Unit is under Dwight E. Avis. This unit caught up with 51,859 bootleggers last year and put 14,707 law- breakers behind bars. It also broke up one of the most powerful of the gangs of racketeers in America. The Alcohol Unit's biggest ally against smuggling is the Coast Guard. The United States Coast Guard is commanded by Rear Admiral R4 R. Waesche. This department has much more to do toward law enforcement than is generally thought. All of these departments are under the command of Secret Service Chief W. H. Moran.

THE GRANGE The Grange, a secret association of farmers, was founded at Wash- ington D. C. December 4, 1867, by Oliver Hudson Kelley, a Minnesota farmer. Mr. Kelley was sent out by the government in 1866 on a tour of inspection through the Southern States to report upon their agri- cultural conditions and the best means of improving them. The Civil war which opened in 1861 caused a great deal of loss to the farmers. Their crops in most cases were ruthlessly destroyed, transportation impaired, orchards and hayfields ruined, fences tern down, and many other merciless acts performed which greatly bereaved the farmer, Besides all this, many of the farmers were killed during the war. If there was no one left at home to keep on with the farm it was either left to ruin or taken up by some other owner. When the war closed in the year 1865 there was a widespread de- moralization in the farming population. This convinced Kelley that Organization was vitally necessary for the farmer's advancement as well as for his self-protection. He thought this was possible by the use of scientific methods of cultivation and the enactment of laws favorable to them. . When Kelley, who was a northern man, reached the south, he was not very warmly received by the people there, but he talked with a few brother Freemasons who suggested to him the idea of a secret fraternity of farmers. Upon his return to Washington, he outlined his plan to a few friends who helped him to establish the National Grange of the Patrons of Hus- bandry. Mr. Kelley, along with six of his most active associates-- William Saunders, J. R. Thompson, A2 B. Grosh, John Trimble, W. M, Ire- land, and F. M. McDowell--are recognized as'Hthe seven founders of the order. The organization was secret and the membership limited to those actually engaged in agriculture but at the suggestion of Miss Carrie A. Hall, a neice of Kelley, and a Boston School teacher, women were admitted on an equality with mon. This feature was rather novel at that time but it had much to do with the society's rapid growth and permanence. ' 45 After a few years the society gained rapidly in members-and in- fluence. In 1873, there were 13,000 subordinate granges and in 1875 the total membership reached l,l500,000.' ' 1 ' About this time the grange gained promimence in legislative matters, both state and national. It intended to curb-railroads and monopolies, to prevent discrimination in rates and prices, and to advance the farmer's interests educationally, socially, and financially. The grange makes its appeals to legislatures and Congress in a spirit of fairness as it is a non-political order. It was largely instrumental in securing the passage of the Interstate Commerce Act, the Oleomargerine Law, the Hatch Act founding experiment stations, the law making the head of the Department of Agriculture a cabinet officer, Rural Mail Delivery, Postal Savings Bank Law, the Parcel Post Law,z1nd many other state and national laws which show a broadmindcd statesmanship. The grange also tried to get control of elevators, ware- houses, and terminal facilities, and instituted cooperative buying and selling on a large scale for the benefit of its members. The Granger States of the Northwest worked out the fundamental principles upon which American regulation of railroads by legislation has. developed, during the decade of the seventies. It is from this source that some of the railroads of the Northwest are still refferred to as ' granger railroads. From a number of undefined causes the grange reached a condition of rapid disintegration in the years from l875 to 1876. But it survived ' through the decade of the eighties with a strong and well disciplined leadership in many state and national granges. - ' About 1890 it began to take on a new life, and again took an active part in every move for the betterment of agriculture. Many dormant granges were reorgainzed, and slowly but surely it has gained.in numbers and influence in the last twenty years. On June 50, 1914, there were strong state granges in 52 states, with a paid-up membership of approx-it imately 600,000 with probably as many others more or less deliquent. The national grange now has a permanent invested accumulation of more than Ql00,000, which gives it a guarantee of financial soundness. In recent years it has been a very important factor in securing much state and national legislation in the interest of agriculture and the o benefits conferred by it upon the agricultural community are believed to be very great. The system of cooperation which it has worked on has assis ted a great many farmers in their efforts to get out of debt, and devel- oped a spirit of entcrprise and cooperation which is of inestimable value. g It is this spirit of enterprise that has made America what it.is to- day. The private man his striving always for a better livelihood, better methods, for better tools and machinery. Of course there are the inevi- table tires but there is always a majority who possess that never dying spirit of enterprise and stick to their jobs, always aiming for a higher objective. This type of person seldom fails. If he does it is not for- lack of hard work or perseverance. , 4 . The farmers as a class are as keenlyalive to their interests now 'A is at any previous time and the grangc, though with a smaller membership than it once had, promises to remain a permanent institution. I , In 1874 the national grangers issued a manifesto declaring the object of the order to be nto develop a better and higher manhood and womanhood among eurselvesg te enhance the comforts and attractions of our homcsg to buy less and produce more, in order to make our farms self sustain- ing, to discountenancc the credit system, the mortgage system, the fashion system, and every other system tending to prodigality and bank- 46 ruptcyg to secure harmony, good will, and vital brotherhood among our- selves and to make our order perpetual. - g g ' . D George Donald '37 fSenior Essay? SUCCESS The student of men is often asked the question, what determines success-the level attained by a man in his life? This is a puzzling question, with the correct answer not as near at hand as the writer would have us think. We have noticed the vast difference between the levels attained by different men in this world. To what are the differenced due? To health and strength? To beauty? To brains? These are all very plausible at first thought, but a closer study of these quali- ties will tell us it is none of these. Careful study of the careers of many in many different lines of endeavor indicates that what determines the place to which a man or woman attains in life is not so much his health or his beauty, or his brains, or even his inherited wealth and position, but his ideals in life is what counts. ' By an ideal in life, it is not meant a vision, a rosy dream con- jured up for the delectation of idle hours, but it is the manfs de- finite and concise aims and purposes in life-the standards of life and the levels of achievment he has marked out for himself as necessary for contentment and satisfaction in life. There are 2 kinds of ideals. One is Inherited and the other is Acquired. Inherited ideals are the things that first appealedite us when we were young. Acquired ideals are those that are obtained by reading and observations and experience of our surroundings. Hwhat is the significance of ideals,H someone asks? Ideals is something that gives us a broader view of the outside world. 1 It isn't as if we were cast into a specific place, with special orders not to move into a broader view.' We can each of us be any one of the many things. In China and India, law and custom tie a person down to the place and mode of life of their ancestors. In this way, unless the law is broken, it prevents a person from obtaining success in any way he de sires the most. We are each a reservoir of possibilities, and it is our ideals which we hold out before us in life which determine the particular possibility that is emphasized in our development until it stands out above all others as our character and personality does. A person's ideals in life are his measuring rod of success in life. For that, effort is necessary. The exertion of a single purpose, if he is to accomplish anything. A man who gives himself over wholly to some great purpose is certain to accomplish something. A man of today must choo intelligent direction or just must take the most initiative The days of just holding down master his place in the world e whether he will make his life one of let himself drift from day to day. He way in which to make his life a succes one's job are past. Today a man must or it will defeat him. In order to be 47 of any prominence in the world, one must work and work hard for it. 'It is true that the most of us will sit back and protest, and say that we have done our best. UOur Bestn is all that anyone can do, and there is no more to be expected of us. But do we know for sure that it is our best? Absolutely not, not until we have tried several times in several different ways to secure success in some way. What cannot be done by one stroke may be effected by manyg and applications and preserverance have often succeeded where all other means have - failed. Powerful as is the force of suggestion, great as is the tendency to copy and to imitate, much as we would prefer that others do our thinking for us, the fact remains that such secondehand management of our affairs can give us only the partial value of our stay. It is true that it is easier to have someone to do our work for us or it easier to copy a problem, than to solve it ourselves, but that cer- is tainly doesnft get us on the road to success in learning to solve for ourselves. To live his life to most satisfying effect, every man 1 must depend upon himself-on his own thinking, his own deciding, and his own doing-and on no one, and on nothing else. The fundamental quality of character of the successful mangis self-reliance. When trying to solve a problem, and not seeming to succeed, Why not conspire with Fate? Why not make her acquaintance and learn her ways to achieve the end desired? Can it be done? Absolutely! Anyone can, if they will only possess the will' power. Look at the men on top, the big men. Notice how they stand upright on their own feet, taking their own course and making their own decisions. Great achievements have always been characterized by boldness and fcarlessness. Success in its most dazzling form, is highly speculative in nature, calling for extreme boldness toiiisk and adventure into the unknown, bravery and cool courage in the face of danger, the ability of high order in surmounting difficulties. Difficulties are to be expected in the course of life. Mistakes and failure are normal events. Progress is a process of climbing over onefs failures and errors. The man who succeeds is not the one who conceives the greatest am bitions to begin with, as he who, through different obstacles he en- counters, best maintains his ambitions in their original purity and forcefullness. The enthusia tic.and progressive find this a kind and appreciative world, while the lazy and indifferent type find it a cruel and cold world. Why? Because there is a lack of exertion, and that's what it rcquirestolee successful in anything. Light the beacon for ambition, and the shadows of drudgcry dis- appear as if by magic. Turn on enthusiasm, and burdens lose their weight and obstacles and difficulties their renaee. Ambition gives zealg zeal gives love for the work, and love for the work gives success. Without these a man is deemed to mediocrity or failure. Success in life is not a matter of course, but of constant study, watchfulness, and application. A Diligence, patience, preserverance, and endurance will at some time come to success in anything.

It was a bright and happy day for Tom, for he was going home to his parents, whom he hadn't seen for months. , . He looked at his watch and exclaimed, nGosh! It's .ten minutes after nine o'clock now. I've only got twenty minutes- to catch the nine-thirty' trainn. With this thought in mind he re- sumed his packing with a little more haste, and about ten minutes later he was ready to leave. ' Grabbing his hat, coat, and suitcase, Tom pulled open the door, stepped quickly through the doorway, ran down a flight of stairs, taking three steps'at a time, through another doorway, and out to his waiting nroad- stern. Throwing his luggage into the rumble seat, he slid under the wheel. . Suddenly a queer feeling came over him as he thought he heard his motherfs voice calling him faintly by name.

He had just graduated from high school the week before so he was beginning to feel a little more grown up, A On this path was a little white cottage hidden among the pines, Many times he had saun- tered up the walk leading to this little cottage. This was where Rachel, a classmate ,and chum of his from childhood, lived- during the summer months. -They often eanoed, swam, and fished togeth- er. They seemed to be more grown up than they ever before had. The thought of graduation and the thought that they would never be able to go back to the dear old high school as students still lingered with them. The happi- ness -and sadness of these thoughts made a rather queer feeling in their hearts, Hand 'in hand they strolled down the winding path. Both were dreaming of what the future held in store for' them. Rachel and Bob alike were 'planning to enter college- in the fall., She was dreaming- of being a great food specialist someday, and he was dreaming of being an athletic coach in some large college. They hoped someday that they might own a little heme all their own on the shores of the lake that ,had breught them so much happiness, , They soon reached the shores and sat quietly 'upon the sand. Silently they,. gazed upon the beautiful scenery about them, Soon the sun disappeared down be- hind the rugged .mountain, which made a wonderful background for the scene. The old moon soon ap- peared to take the place of the sun.

Merrily they pad- dled -up along the edge of the lake, going in and out of all the coves. V The happy couple chatted gayly as they glided along. Hav- ing gone all around the edge of the pond, they, decided to+go-a- cross the pond.' t T , Just as they were about in the middle of the,pond thoyp not- iced that the sky was growing dark in the south.

The storm had reached its height and was new beginning to grow a little clamor. Luckily both of them could swim, for that helped them some toward rescuing thdm- selves. They managed to catch hold of the edge of the boat and there they hung wondering what they should do next. In the dis- tance they heard something that sounded like a motor boat put- tering along. They began to shout and very fortunately the boatman heard their cries and came in that direction. Rachel and Bob had practically given up hope when the boat reached them.

There was a middle-aged woman at- tending her since her headaches had begun. The girl had a nice white goat given to her by the native woman and, it used to fel- low her everywhere. One after- noon the two men, the girl, and the attondin5 woman went out to pick flowers and to get informa- tion for their book. As the girl was picking flowers she saw fa little green garter snake, or a Vudul snake as the natives called them. She picked it up and show- ed it to her firends. Then the woman began to mumble and fall down on her knees and erying5 nVudul,n The father of one of the men had cone up, to this place before to write a book, but when he: was coming down from the hills he was pursued by cannibals.

On the ythirdp night the non were looking for the girl. She had been told not to leave the-hut where they They searched everywhere between her mumbling, livfzldg but eeuldnft find her, They re4 turned to the house to write, The owner of the diary was lach- ing in it when he found that this was the year that the Vudul tribe were going to have their ceremony He looked for the date and found that the ceremony was to be held that nidht.

When the wo- man saw the goat with the Vudul Snake around its neck she re- leased the girl, who .im ediately came towards them. Then 5 the people began to cry,-nGet us an- other sacrifice.H So she killed the goat. Then the two men and the girl went back to a civi- lized town at the foot of the hills. They learned after, that the girl had been vhypnotized by the woman who had attended her while they were up in the hills. They reported to the government that the tribe still held their ceremonies once every twenty- five years. The government ,knew that they still had their cere- monies but they ,did not know what date, or how .often. They wrote the book which had many pictures of the tribe and one of the ceremony. Thej' book was a great success. ' Andre Creteau '38 THE wormw-mesa A nAw, quit your crazy talk a- bout females! You and all the guys around here make me other sick with your darn girls.

He's called a Hstuek-upn by all the girls in school when he really isn't, but you can't say anything to himgn Ted went out to the wood- 52 ' shed and began splitting wood, thinking of Frank all the while. After Ted had slammed the door, Frank shrugged his shoulders, turned to his work bench and gether the rudder of an army plane. After Completing the rudder, and having covered it, he decided to go downtown to the Craftshop to get some model air- plane cement and dope. After having purchased these articles, he looked long at the Hneat' exhibition airplane model in the window. Not taking his eyes off it, he started to walk away and wham! he ran squarely into a young lady, who, in a hurry, was looking over towards the other side of the street. Frank turned around, his face red with shame and eyes sparkling more than ever, to face the person he had bumped into. There, before him, stood the prettiest girl he had ever seen, her scolding blue eyes looking steadily at Frank, while over her rosy complexion stole the shade of a ripe apple. Not having had anything to began to piece to- do with girls, before, Frank sputtcred, nYou see, er-I, er, excuse me, Miss.n With that he spun on his heel and started to walk away when she hailed him in a rich contralto voice, UPardon me, but if you're not in too great a hurry, would you please tell me where May Stevens lives?n Hardly daring to turn around Frank said, HEr, you speaking t't 'to me?H Receiving the affir- mative, he asked, dWhat, er, what was it you said? You see, er-- well, I'm kinda bashful.n Frank didn't know what kept him there, but could he help it? HCould you tell me where May Stevens lives, please?H she re- peated. nOh yes,H replied Tom, los- ing some of his bashfulness, Hshe lives about a block from where I live. I can show you, er, that is if you want me to.H With that Frank smiled and began wondering why he wanted to talk to this girl.- HWell, I wish that you would. I've been traveling all day, and I surely wouldn't want to hunt all evening to find where she lives.u In his bashfulness, Frank had unknowingly squeezed the tube of cement, until the cement had burst a hole in the side of the tube, and when he thought of of- fering to carry her bags, he just couldn't take that one hand out of his pocket. UEr, put the arm, will you?n Wyou seo, er, my well--.H Q Thinking tha been cut off or said, HOh, that's She, being a other under my he muttered, other hand, er, t his hand had was sore, she all right.n good conversa- tionalist, made Frank lose his bashfulness quickly and he was soon talking to her as he would have talked to his sister. He told her about his model air- planes and she told him of her secret ambition to be an avia- trix. The conversation continued along, different channels until they had reached May's house. After having set her bags down awkwardly with one hand, Frank almost unknowingly made a date with her, saying that he'd like to take her to the school social the following Sunday. She said that she would like, to go, so Frank said, USo longn and walked home. After nearly ripping out all of his pocket, he finally get his hand out and began thinking of himself, the women-hater. He didn't. know what had happened, but all of a sudden he thought that girls were great. A , Upon entering May's home, Gertrudei Hall, the girl whom Frank had just fallen for Cal- though he didn't think sol, and after having exchanged very inti- mate grcctings with her cousin and aunt, May cjaculatod, nwhy Gertrude, do you know who you camo homo with?H Disturbed, Gertrude replied, HNo, why ho seemed very nice, whatfs thc matter with him, is his hand out off?H W HGec,n expostulatod May, HHo's supposed to be the colo- bratod misogynist of our city. Ho's tho brother to my boyfriend. Boforo to-day, ho's boon un- touched by girl's hands. No, his hand isn't cut offin Uwoll, I'll bo gdarnod,H ox- ll plodedi Gertrude, no wonder he was so bashful.

All thc girls around hero have tried to get him. Ho wouldn't oven W ith take two looks at us.H that, the two girls began plan- ning for a good time at tho school social. Tod, after having split about a half-cord of wood, do- cidod that ho'd go up to Franks' room, make up with him, and pro- mise him not to mention girls anymore. Upon entering, he was sur- prised to find Frank combing his hair for about the first time that ho didn't have to Tod began, nFrank, I'm sorry for what I said about girls--.H Uwhat for?U interrupted Frank, HI think that girls are great.

Smith lived in the country where they were well known.' They had a nice home and a beautiful 'daughter who was named Mary. She was about five years old and was known as the best looking child in that coun- try. Not far from the Smith's lived Mr. Jones, who was about thirty years old and lived alone in an old shack away from the other people. Mr. Jones didn't have much to do, so he usually went fishing, in a pond near-by. It was quite hard for Mr. Jones to find work because people thought he was out of his head. One day Mr. Smith had some wood to chop and was busy, so he hired Mr. Jones to split wood for him. Mr. Jones worked for about a week and Mr. Smith thought he was all right, so they had Mr. Jones have his meals with them. Mr. Jones always thought so much of Mary, but Mrs. Smith did- n't like to have him tell her how pretty her daughter was, because she was afraid he would kidnap her or kill her. Finally he get through splitting wood and went back to his old shack again, and back to fishing. A few months went by and one evening Hr. and Mrs. Smith had company, Hrs. Paul, a friend of theirs, came to tell them -some- thing. Mrs. Smith was getting Mary ready for bed but she wouldn't go. Her father told her to go to bed and still she wouldn't go so he gave her a little push and she fell down. He went to 'pickQ up and found, she was dead. He did- n't know what to do. He thought he would kill himself, but changed his mind. His wife wouldn't let him go to jail so they thought up something. They pushed Mary's bed near the window, broke the window just large enough to get her through and then he carried Mary down to the Pond where Hr. Jones always went fishing. He tied the dead body in the boat and went home. Then he jot Mrs. Paul to promise not to ever tell anybody. Final- ly she promised. ' After Mrs. Paul left, Mrs. Smith called up the sheriff, and told them that somebody had kid- napped her daughter Mary. The sheriffs hurried over and found the window broken and the bed near the window. They first thought that Mr. Jones had kidnapped her, so they went over to Hr. Jones and found him in bed. They awoke him and asked him questions. They could get nothing out of him so they went down to the pond and found Mary just as Mr. Smith had left her. The sheriffs new thought they were sure Mr. Jones brought her down to his boat and killed her. Mr. Jones was taken to court the same day and was questioned. he said he didn't kill the little qirl, but the judge said he was guilty. Mr. and Mrs. Smith told the judge that Mr. Jones ras not guilty, but the judge wouldn't listen to them. Mr. Jones was out in prison and was to stay in prison for life. After being there for a- bout ten years, Mrs. Paul was dy- ing and her last words were that she ceuldn't die leaving hr. Jones in prison for lif: when he wasn't guilty. She told thc whole story, how Mr. Smith killed his daughter, and how he broke the window and took her dorn to the boat, They questioned Hr. Smith' and he said it was all true, but that his wife uouldn't lot him be known as guilty so he had to do thats Mr. Jones was out of jail and supported by the state for i.-. the rest of his life. Angela Benedetto '58 EDUCATION As we move on we find a greater need for education. It is the only solid foundation for progress. What causes lack of courage, poverty, superstitions, ctc.? lt is plainly the lack of education. The resources with which America is endowed are sufficient enough to provide a very general and broadening elementary train- ing. And now, it is up to the indiviCual to go after this training. What will all this education mean to us? We must realize that what we need is not intellectual power but moral power, and more character. This can be acquired only through a good education. We must acquire training and skill by which we can better min- ister the needs of humanity. It is this purpose which lies behind all our endcavors for education. lt is not the more power to exist that must be sought, but, more wisdom and an enlightened dispo- sition to servo. Under more primitive condi- tions those who were perhaps en- tirely untrained in the schools, found ample opportunity for com- pletn personal expression in their daily employment. The wre- sent industrial mxthods, depend upon education. The requirements of efficiency and skill has rc- duced much of modern industrial life to a more mechanical opera- tion. Those engaged in it are no longer able to draw inspiration from their work. All must. seek 55 to achieve something greater, and surely, this is what we must do if we want this nation to pro- gress. L. Gastonguay '58 A FRESHMAN LOOKS AT HIGH SCHOOL nThe future is always a fairy- land to the young. This motto is true in most instances. Nearly everyone looks forward to his future, and if he has succeeded in getting through high school, he will be better qualified to select a notable vo- cation. He'll be more able to meet competition, and know fhow to spend his liesure hours to the best advantage. A good reputation comes from a High School Diploma. It means better jobs and higher estimation than that of the under-graduate. High school is free to everyone, and to borrow money in which to complete a course is not disgraceful. We gain more know- ledge of our surroundings while in high school, and HMind employ- ed is mind enjoyed.n It is much better for chil- dren between the ages of fifteen and nineteen to be in school ra- ther than being idle or getting in with bad company. Jobs are scarce for young people, and poor Paying- I HEducation is the keystone to success.

The Club started with about fifteen members, but soon nar- rowed down to five who comprised the years debating team. Letters were earned by Laura Gastenguay, Violette Rivers, George Donald, Edith Brooks and Phyllis Berube, The question under discus- sion this year was resolved: That all electric utilities should be governmentally owned and operated.

When Miss Aileen McCourt receives her diploma, this June, the school will lose a very talented singer. Thomas Croteau 'and Carmen Ditata wrote the Senior class ode and they deserve high praise for their commendable work. The standards of the choral performances have advanced over previous years in Jay High which was demonstrated at the Minstrel Show--this being the case, the orchestra on that occasion had to be omitted as its members were in the cast, . T Since several of the gradua- members are musical, tion class it has been decided to have all special musical numbers by them. Thomas and Rowena Fairchild will play an instrumental duet, Aileen McCourt will sing a solo for Bac- calaureate, also for Graduation-- the Overture' will be played by Arthur Benedetto,' Carmen Ditata, Rowena Fairchild, Thomas Fair- child, David Mchenney, Stillman Morse and Tony Balsamo, The Rancho Rhythm Boys, a group of high school boys from Chisholm, have added greatly to the affairs of school and commu- nity and they are indeed clever in their line. Hurrah, for the boys, and may they long continue to play together and have much pleasure in time so spent, Ask some people what is Am- erica's national game. They would say it is football in 'the fall and basketball in the win- ter. Truly speaking these ans- wers are not correct. The great American game today, and for the past ten years, is music. Statistics show, according te National Federation of husic Clubs, the largest crowds in Am- erica did not attend either of the first two mentioned activi- ties, Crowds of thousands have attended Music Festivals during the past ten years and it seems that is just the beginning of mu- sic for the masses in this coun- try. .A very popular activity, of particular interest nationally, is baton twirling. The national Champion gave a dazzling exhibi- tion at the Rumford Music Festi- val. This was well worth seeing, Those from Jay High who at- tended this year's festival will long remember the beautiful sight the hundreds of students made in costume and parade. The excel- lent unit work and the thrill of being part of such a great and interesting affair will always be remembered. Always, much is to be learned at such a time. ,. HOME ECONOMICS ' llhatever serves to make a girl a happier,, better and more efficient member of her home and community has its place inithe curriculum of home economics.

H: On April 15, the Juniors and Seniors put on, at Murray Hall, a real honest-to-goodness minstrel shew with singing, dancing, and ' jokes. The end-men were dressed in black pants with orange strips, orange fishtail coats, white shirt fronts, and, of course, the neces- sary wigs and black faces. Mixed in between the jokes were solos, ' both vocalfand instrumental, songs by the chorus, quartette singing, and tap dancing, s V The Chorus itself consisted of twenty-eight girls all dressed in evening gowns, which made a very attractive background for the end-men. ' The stage was cleared and the curtain came up again to find Raoul Roy perched on top of a soap box. He was l'. giving a campaign speech to get votes for Cat-Fish Gann fhimselfl as assistant dog catcher of Halibut county. The climax arrived when, upon finishing his speech, he found to his dismay that he was in the wrong county. A solo by Beryl Spiller followed this, then came the Billionaires Club. This was a club made up of inhabitants of an insane asylum. The doctor knew that they were insane, but when he started talking about the machine that talked Cradiob they thought he was. The club' members followed their play with a song HThe Kid in the Three-Cornered Pilrlts Qu X Next on the program was a dialogue between Thomas and Rowena Fairchild, or nMike and lke.n Each thought the other was someone else so while one talked about an old car, the other'talkod about a girl, and thus they get everything all mixed up, Mildred Constant played a violin solo, followed by a quartette of boys singing nCarry Me Back to Old Virginia,H The last on the program,was HThe Darhtown Amateur Houru with David McKenney as Major Bloze. We were entertained'with musicians, comedians, singers and tap dancers. Paul LaBrecque, soloist, won the prize of W88.8S for giving the best performance. A The show ended with the Grand Finale with everyone filing back' on the stage to sing nWay Down Upon the Swannie Rivern.

If you did not happen to see any of thdsu pictures you can guess from their titles what they werefabout.m, I know you all enjoyed the pictuegm on the Cornation. we were very fortunate in being able to procure such a picture. Uredit should be given to mr. wilkins and others for helping make these pictures poss- ible, The machine is more than paying for itself along the education- al line and in money. Its influence upon education is the same for both young and old. ' S. horse '57 A GENTLEMAN It is almost a definition of a gentleman to say that he is one who never inflicts pain. He is mainly occupied in removing the obstacles which hinder the free and-unembarrassed aetion of those about him. The true gentleman carefully avoids whatever may cause a jar or a jolt in the minds of'those with whom he is cast--all clashing of opinion or col- lision of feeling, all restraint or suspicion or gloom or resentmentg his great concern is to make everyone at his ease and at home. He guards against unseasonable allusions or topics which may-irri- tateg he is seldcmkprominent in conversation--and never wearisome. HG never speaks of himself except when compelled,-he has no ears for slander or gossip, is scrupulous in imputing motives to those who interfere with him, and interprets everything for the best. N' i He is never mean or little in his disputes, never takes unfair ad- vantage, never mistakes personalities or sharpfsayings for arguments. He has too much good sense to be affronted at insultsg he is too well emp1oyec'to remember injuries, too indolcnt to bear malice: He is patient, forbearing, and resigned, on philosophical grounds. He sub- mits to pain, because it is incvitableg to bereavement, because it is irreparable, and to death, because it is his destiny.

Noyes BASLBALL ' The baseball team closed an .unsuccessful season at Leavitt Friday, June 4. The boys had quite a bit of hard luck this w'year losing all their games to 'date. This was largely due to the inexperience of the battery. The team was hard hit by the loss of last year's battery of Soap- pitticci and Gagnon. The Qbcys gained a lot of experience this year and look for a better season next year. All the boys will be back with the exception of George Donald who is the-leading batter on the squad and Tony Balsamo a scrappy little catcher.
