Although none of us was high sales-person, enough of us sold so that our class ranked second in the amount of money raised for the school. Seven of us sold, with Norman Knapp, Nancy Howard, and Marguerite Hunting- ton selling over ten dollars and Leone Chadbourne receiving a certificate for sell- ing twenty-five dollars or more. In all, our class sold over eighty dollars worth. Katherine Loucks and Mahlon McMul- len have been strong members of our bas- ketball teams this year. Others who have helped during the season are Leone Chad- bourne, John Edgerly, and Norman Knapp as managers and Jean Pushard as cheer leader. Norman also played second base in last fallis baseball. Class of 1955 Nineteen of last year's Freshmen return- er to become the Sophomores of 1952-53. We elected the following officers: President SHIRLEY WILBUR Vice President GEORGE DAWSON Secretary AMANDA WINTER Early last fall, three of us were cast in the three one-act plays, Leone was promp- ter and John, stage manager. In All the Riversn Norman was the stubborn father who hated to see his daughter leave home, Mahlon, in the same play, was a friend of the family. Victor Nichols, in Thingv, was the soap producer who wrote a check for one thousand dollars as first prize in his soap contest. Norman was also in the Carnival Play and in the three-act play. Norman is Editor in Chief of our year- book, with Mahlon being his Assistant Ed- itor. Besides all these activities, Norman took part in public speaking. The two social events we were responsi- ble for were the Junior Prom, held March 13, and the Commencement Dance, June 11. For both these dances we hired Bob's Orchestra. Although we didn't make any money on the Junior Prom, we felt that all who patronized us had an enjoyable even- ing. . This year has marked another step for- ward toward our goal. We are now well on the last half of our way through King- field High School. Treasurer METHEL ATWOOD Student Council Representative PATRICIA WALKER During the first part of the school year we lost two of our classmates: Lynette Douglass and Donald Moody.

Several from our class have taken part in school athletics as players during the year. They were as follows: Methel At- wood, joanne Meldrum, Shirley Wilbur, and Amanda Winter for girls, Sonny Dyer, David Edgerly, and Clifford Norton for boys. Muriel Winter was one of the man- agers of the girls' basketball team. Methel Atwood, Shirley Wilbur and Amanda Win- ter Were cheer leaders. Later on, Amanda dropped out and Anita Sillanpaa replaced her. In the three one-act plays Methel At- wood and Shirley Wilbur took part in All Class of 1956 Class Officers President ALBERT CAREY Vice-President LOUISE PHILBRICK Secretary BARBARA NICHOLS Treasurer DORIS MELDRUM Student Council Representative GAIL THOMPSON September 3, 1952: About eight fifteen this morning, I arrived at school and joined my classmates to find seats, for this was the first day of school and the beginning of our first year in high school. Although we started with twelve pupils, the second week of school two more joined us. They were Helen and Ellen Williams. Unfortun- ately they and Austin Sillanpaa left us be- fore Christmas, thereby reducing our class to eleven members. September 26, 1952: Finally that fatal day has arrived. You guessed it. Freshman Initiation! The dress was varied. Fun and gaiety reigned. We now really belong. 10 the Riversn, Amanda Winter in Another Beginning , and Patricia Walker and Mur- iel Winter in Things',. Muriel was in the Carnival Play, 'KOn Vengeance Height and also in the three-act play. Joanne Meldrum and joan Packard were prompters. jean Morrison, Patricia, Shirley, Methel and Sonny participated in public speaking. Three of us were on the yearbook staff. They were Methel, Class Editor, Amanda, Girls, Athletic Editor, Muriel, chairman of Photographic Committee. Others have helped secure advertisements. The passing of this year marks another step forward in our progress through King- field High School. We have been well represented in all sports. Beverly Chadbourne, Louise Phil- brick, Gail Thompson, and Anne William- son were on the girls, basketball squad, Albert Carey, john Carey, and Richard Lovejoy, on the boys'. Richard is develop- ing into a good center. Doris Meldrum and Louise Philbrick were cheer leaders. Al- bert, john Richard, Boris Knoecny, and Austin Sillanpaa played fall baseball, and the Careys were on the track team. We have not restricted ourselves to ath- letics. Louise and john were kid sister and father respectively in Thingsv. Per- haps you remember Gail as the maid in Another Beginningv or as the neighbor's daughter in On Vengeance Height . Be- sides having parts in these one-act plays, Gail was in public speaking. Other speak- ers from our class were Louise and Albert. As Freshmen we have not held import- ant offices, but we have begun to make ourselves an active part of the school. EDITORIALS BACK TO SCHOOL When we climb the school steps to be- gin a new year, the day holds excitement. Yes excitement! As the groups gather we relate the events of our summer vacation. A new student is sitting is the seat Bill oc- cupied last year. We eye him with cau- tion. Then some brave soul introduces himself to the newcomer. Presto! A new friendship is made. As we pass from class to class, we are greeted by our teachers. The books mount on our arms, books new to us, that are to be both our friends and our property for the following thirty-six weeks. As Seniors we are starting the last round of our high school career. On the agenda for our class are the long awaited trip to Washington, D. C., and our graduation. I believe nursing, which I plan to make my profession, is very worthwhile. I am anxious to finish high school so that I may get started on my goal. When people ask, Are you glad school has startedfy, I can honestly answer, Of courselv Beverly Boynton ,53 THE SCHOOL BUS g Once again, we were fortunate enough to be granted the opportunity of hiring the town school bus for basketball transporta- tion. The teachers and pupils have appre- ciated its use, because it does simplify the problem of getting to other towns to par- ticipate in games. The pupils probably have a more enjoyable time because they can all go together, instead of separately in several cars. Too, no student has the re- sponsibility of driving his familyls car. The teachers certainly are glad to have all the students together and in the hands of a responsible driver. Do you realize that in almost fifteen hundred miles of travel in the last two winters there has not been even one incident of leaving the road or being stuck in the snow? Moreover, when the teachers arrive in Kingfield, they know that all the students are in town too. One carful of them is not left stranded in the snow, neither has it been left behind be- cause some of its occupants wanted to stay a while longer in some restaurant. Parents must be glad, too, that their children are allowed to travel on the bus. The old system of private cars was ex- pensive for those families who most often had to supply a car. Now if the car goes, there is room for the family itself to go and maybe invite friends to accompany them. The school always likes to have loyal rooters at games away from home. There is, of course, some expense for each family, because each rider is asked to pay twenty cents a trip. But that ex- pense is spread over a period of time and over all the families, not just the ones who furnish cars. Why do they have to pay at all? That is to help make the cost of hiring the bus less prohibitive for the school. After all, it does cost quite a lot, and the school is not able financially to pay for the total cost in addition to all other expenses in carrying out a sports program. This past season the school has paid to the town treasurer ninety-nine dollars for the use of the bus and to the driver fifty-eight dollars. In spite of the expense incurred in the use of it, Kingfield High School is very glad to be able to hire it. The whole school joins in saying Thank Youf, Bryce Meldrum ,53 11 EDITORIALS ALMOST SIXTEEN You are almost sixteen - but are you grown up? This is a familiar question. Usually if you are in doubt, there are a few things you have slipped up on. If you are grown up, your outlook on life is much different and the way you take things is very changed, also. To become grown up you must be de- pendable. This is the basic clue by which you are judged. Do what you say you will. If the windows are to be washed by Mon- day, that does not mean Tuesday or Wednesday. Don't forget Mrs. Brown wants you to take care of Mary and Billy, Friday, at 7:00 P. M. Are you careful about your person? Do you always look well in public? just one thing, such as greasy hair, will spoil your whole appearance. Too, you will want to overcome your social failures. Shyness in public can and should be conquered. Meeting people isnlt hard, since they usually donit bite. Ad- mitted it will be hard at first, but most people are uncertain at times. Remember your manners. The Golden Rule should be followed as closely as pos- sible. If you enjoy people bumping into you accidentally and not at least saying a hurried 'Tm sorryf, probably other peo- ple do not enjoy it. Also, remember the familiar Ladies before g e n tl e m e n. Thoughtfulness is the keynote. Accept things as they are. Usually they canit be changed, so there is no use crying over spilled milk. Truthfully now, are you grown up? jean Morrison ,55 - WEARING GLASSES Hey there, Four-eyes,', and Goggle- eyes,', are the remarks that usually follow me as I walk along. No matter where I am or what I am doing, people always have the same comment to make about my glasses. I guess this is the fate of all of us- who wear them. Of course, there are peo- ple who say I look good in glasses or that the rims of my glasses go beautifully with the dress I am wearing. Those I love! I think a personis eyes are accented with glasses, and that tricky usage of the eyes will make him even better looking. For instance, a trick of mine that brings out the color of my eyes is to open them very wide when someone asks me some- thing or when some one very special is talking to me. Itis fun because I enjoy peopleis reaction to this. Some even go so far as to tell me I have pretty eyes! All this with glasses on! No, I donit mind wearing glasses, in fact, sometimes I actually enjoy it. Muriel Winter ,55 HAPPINESS Happiness! What is it? What does it mean? Is it something you can buy? No, I do not believe it is although some peo- ple will sacrifice happiness for money. Afterwards they may regret it when they think of the wrong they have committed. Happiness to me is living moderately and enjoying life from one minute to the 12 next. You must make each minute count. The word happiness means a lot to you all through your life. You cannot expect it to come looking for you, you must put an effort forward to look for it. Once you find it do not throw it away for petty things. To be happy you need good friends and EDITORIALS HAPPINESS tcon.l these you have to strive for. Enjoy your- self with them and get along with them. Trying to get your own way all the time will not bring you friends. Choosing your life work will mean your happiness, also. This is especially true for boys as they will have to do that work for the rest of their lives. So, come on! Do not let happiness slip by. Remember you have only one life. Shirley Wilbur '55 ACHIEVEMENT ' The big man starts as a boy back in the first years of school. He forms the habit of being quiet and listening when the tea- cher speaks to him. He learns what is asked of him even though he fails to see any immediate use for it. He continues doing things other and old- er people think are best for him. When he gets to high school, he does odd jobs about the school for his teachers. He does things for his class and teammates. He helps do the mean and dirty jobs that have to be done. If asked to get oranges for a basket- ball game, he does that, too, without grum- bling. After he leaves high school, he goes on to further schooling or he learns a special trade. Now he is prepared for what life holds in store for him is this work. Prob- ably he starts at a very small job in the bus- ness and, without any hard feelings, he begins working his way up the line. After many hard years of work, he is well repaid for the cooperation and effort that has made him the man he has become. These incidents all help to show that big men become big by doing what they don't want to do when they don't want to do it. Leone Chadbourne 754 YES. BUT ' Big men become big by doing what they donit want to, when they don't want to. I believe on the whole that this state- ment is true. Men 'in companies, where advancement is possible must be accomo- dating at all times, or they will not get ahead. Bosses don't like men who will do nothing out of their regular line of work. In business this is also true. In order to be popular with your customers, you must be willing to put yourself out to help others. In another sense, however, this isn,t true. Thomas Edison became great by working in his laboratory when others con- sidered it ridiculous. Walter P. Chrysler was a very independent fellow. Once he tore every piece of a new automobile-his first-apart before he even had taken a ride in it. This he did much against the will of his family. Abraham Lincoln spent time studying books when people around him were ignorant and thought he was wasting his time. The statement applies to more people than there are exceptions to it. However, I think many men have become great by yielding to inner urgings of their own, re- gardless of other people. Norman Knapp '54 13 EDITORIALS THE Who are you fooling when you try to pretend that you are someone else? Do you really Want to know? Well, just take a good look into the mirror. Thatis right, it is nobody but yourself. You may fool oth- ers for a while, but it does not last. The only one that you really cheat is yourself. If people would only stop to think things over, they would realize that they cannot pretend to be some one else or to have ac- complishd some thing that they could not possibly do. It is like a daydreamer, who sits all day in school and does positively nothing but dream. He pretends that he is some great person. just inside of his own body, though. Outside he looks to CHEAT ,A others just like his real, true character. He is not taken to be some great person. Some people even go as far as to pretend that they are some Prince or Duke. They travel around the country, introducing themselves as such and enjoying the grand welcomes they get. They may eventually deceive themselves into thinking they are this person. No! Do not ever cheat yourself by pre- tending you are some one or something else. People will like you much better if you do not try to deceive. just remember: The worst of all frauds is to cheat oneis selff, ' Christie Packard '53 REMEMBER THAT YOU STAND OR FALL BY YOUR OWN WORK Behind the little white church in the cemetery stands a large marble headstone which marks the remains of George H. Cropper. Yes, he made an achievement. He own- ed the Cropper mines and off its handsome profits he lived, smugly looking down his nose to the men and boys who went down into those mines. He never gave a penny to charity and he never gave a thought to the women and children whose husbands, brothers, and sons his mines had suifocated. Beside his grave a wooden marker bears the name Samuel Smith. Sam Smith was only a farmer, who tilled his soil, took his products to town and at- tended church on Sunday. He helped paint the little church white. He always wore a smile as he peddled his fresh butter and eggs to the housewives. To those too poor to buy-he gave. It is not so important what you achieve during your life as how you achieve it. A person like Sam will stand in the hearts of his fellow men forever. Beverly Boynton ,53 YOUR OWN MARK The last class bell rang and Bill saunter- ed into the classroom. Today was the day for the big test. Bill didnit see why they gave these final exams in English anyway so why should he bother to study for it? jack, his brother, had spent all last even- ing studying for the foolish test and passed up a chance to go to Dryden to the movies. 14 Bill vowed that he would never be that stupid over some silly exam and, of course, jumped at the chance to go. This was jack's and Bill's last year in high school and they both planned to en- ter Northwestern College the next fall. Anyone wishing to enter that college had to have a high scholastic standing to be EDITORIALS YOUR OWN MARK icon.l accepted. The boys had decided to enter the col- lege during their freshman year in high school and they both realized they would have to get high ranks. jack had got busy and was on the honor roll his four years, but Bill-that was different! Bill thought he was brilliant enough without studying. He was sure he could pass any tests that were given by just using common sense. When he got into college he would studyl Bill knew the only reason he had received C's and Dis was that the teachers had a grudge against him! - Well, today was his final exam in English and he knew it was going to be a cinch. FIRE Over the trees there was a red glow. I immediately thought: Firel', A fire frightens me very much, but at the same time it fascinates me. So when I came in view of the fire, I kept my eyes glued to it every minute. It was a house and barn combined, and they were both quite large. just a half hour before, I had gone by the house, and the owner had been mowing his lawn. Now, on my way home, I saw that the buildings were nearly burned flat. Every now and then a glowing beam would crash down, and the flames would leap higher. The leaves of the trees around the When the boys arrived home from their last day of high school, there were two letters waiting for them. The first was to jack from Northwestern College. It read: We are proud, because of your scholastic ability and standing, to accept you as one of our students next Septemberf, The other one was for Bill, and it read: We regret to inform you that we cannot accept you into Northwestern College because your scholastic standing is not high enough to be accepted in our collegef' Bill was very angry, but his mother said to him, Remember that you stand or fall by your own work, Bill. Q Betty Kirkwood ,53 house were burning, and the trunks of the trees were black and singed. When the blaze was over only a few charred beams remained. This is only one of the numerous fires that occur annually, destroying not only buildings, but land areas and even life. Many fires could be prevented, others, by quicker action, could be kept less costly. It is the duty of all of us to know the principles of fire prevention and to prac- tice them. Only in that way can our justi- fiable fear of fire be lessened. Anne Williamson '56 I ENTER A CONTEST The first land probably the lastj ski contest I entered was on Sugarloaf Moun- tain last spring. I had no idea of entering it, until on the Saturday night before the day of the race when Finn Sprague and his wife, two skiers from Portland, came to visit Mother and Dad. Amanda,v she asked, will you enter the race with me tomorrow?,' I thought for a minute before I answered her. I knew I shouldnit say no, and Uncle Amos wanted me to, so I told her I would. The next morning we arrived early at the ski hut at the bottom of the mountain. It was a cold, rainy day, but despite this, there were about seventy people there. 15 . N ,. 2 . 'iii . .

I began to feel a little shaky. I sud- denly didnit want to enter, but it was too late. On the way up the mountain I got awful- ly tired. The reason for this was because I had only climbed it once before, and my legs weren't used to it. The rain was driz- zling off from the trees and it was terribly wet and muggy. You coudn't see ten feet ahead because of the fog. When we reached the tree line, we stop- ped and ate our lunch. Then we climbed to the top of the second snow field where the race was to start. Oddy helped me take off my skins Cstrips of sealskin you put on the bottom of skis so as to keep them from slipping while climbing a mountainj, and made me sit down to get my wind, but I was too excited to do that for long. There was too much going on. Then the race began. I was the fourth girl to go. I lined up at the starting line and heard the man say, Five-four-three- two-one-go. Then I was off. I made it down through the snowfields all right, but when I got down to the tree line, my legs began to ache, because I had never skied such a long distance without stopping. I wished I could sit down, and before I knew it, my skis were all crossed up and down I went. I got up as fast as I possibly could, Qthat wasnit very fastj for I had about a quarter of a mile left to ski. I took it good and slow, because I was so tired. When I finally got over the finish line I dropped right then and there and rested my legs. I came in seventh out of seven girls. That wasn't very good, but it was good experi- ence for me and I have the fear of my first race behind me. Amanda Winter '55 CNote: Amanda wrote the above about the winter of 1951 and 52. This year she placed first in the Sugarloaf Schuss, third in slalom and fifth in downhill in the East- ern junior Girls Championship held at Farmington, third in Sugarloaf Giant Slalom. BABE RUTH SPORTSMANSHIP AWARD We are continuing again this year the Babe Ruth Sportsmanship program award. We are pleased to announce that our win- ners for this year are Beverly Boynton for girls and Bryce Meldrum for boys. fWe congratulate these students, because we fell that this is one of the highest awards that we are able to make to any of our membersj. I MOVIE PROTECTOR VVe are all very proud of our new movie projector. Although we have had a projec- tor for several years, ours was quite an old model and it was nearing the time that we would have to spend quite a sum for re- pairs. Too, it was a heavy, cumbersome machine to carry around, as we frequently have to, from one place to another. The new one is very compact, you pick up the case the projector itself is in and you have the entire machine. There is no separate sound box. It threads much more easily than the old one. It is simpler to run and, also, much quieter. The tone quality can be regulated so that it is pleasing. The new projector is another step forward in equipping ourselves with modern audio- visual means for education. I7 Year Calender Sept. 1 - Labor Day.

They furnished us with a tasty ,meal which consisted of chicken pie, mashed potato, with all the trimmings, and frosted sugar cake for dessert. The four tables were well decorated. Each was covered with a white table cloth, and had a candle in the center with small flags at each side of the candle. I believe Girls' Chorus Through the direction and everlasting patience of Mrs. Ruth Wing, the Girls, Chorus has made a hit for the year 1952-53. They have taken part in several school aHairs, one of which was the Variety Show. They sang in the Baptist Church twice, once at Christmas and once at Easter. The girls looked very good in their new Easter Carnival The long planned for and exciting day of the Carnival finally came. All morning at school everyone was very busy, most of us attending classes and studing as usu- al. But a few must finish the booths and collect the food that wasn't to be ready until that forenoon. After noon, each committee chairman was given change and prizes to open his booth, and the fun began. Many of us patronized the food booth where fudge, ice cream, hot dogs and drinks were on sale, as well as cakes and pies. One of the most popular spots was the fish pond where many of the younger children spent most of their time. If we were too old to fish, we could have our fortune told, throw 26 special mention should be of the place favors. They represented a basketball poised for a perfect shot over the basket with its crocheted net. The rim of the bas- ket was fine wire and the ball itself was made of wood, which had been stained brown. Very impressive indeed! All of us who attended the banquet wish to thank each and every Past Noble Grand who made this banquet a success for us. Robert Taylor '53 outfits. Too, Mrs. Wing presented each girl with a corsage of yellow daffodils. The Chorus will take part in the annual Spring Festival, which the entire school presents. They have, also, been requested to sing two selections at the County Teachers, Convention in Wilton. baseballs, or toss rings. For a dime we could see movies over in the school house. Later in the afternoon there was great demand for people to clean up the hall and to set up the chairs for the play to be pre- sented in the evening. Although Carnival continues through the evening, the most of the noise and ex- citement is over when the school children leave at bus time in the afternoon. Proceeds go to the Student Council fund to help meet expenses of our school during the year. We always hope for large profits, because that means we can continue with our schedule for another year. Our activi- ties wonit have to be stopped because of lack of funds. On March 17, the High School put on a Variety Show under the supervision of Mrs. Wing, with the following students taking part. jean Pushard and Louise Phil- brick did a tap dance. Jean Morrison gave a humorous reading. Doris Meldrum sang Another venture We all take part in is the booth at Fair. The Whole school works to help make it a success, although it is the Seniors' responsibility to see that commit- tees are drawn up and that things are done. Seniors are the ones who stay overnight on the fairgrounds to be sure everything is all right, and to get an early start the next morning. And what is very important to every Senior is that the profit made from ACTIVITIES Variety Show It Is No Secretf' Gil Thompson played two piano solos. The Chorus sang selec- tions at the beginning and again at the end. Announcer for the program was Rudol- ph Dyer, Jr. Proceeds were donated to the Heart Fund of America. Booth At Fair the booth goes to help pay for his Wash- ington trip. Each individual, then, as he works up through the classes helps the current seniors, but he, in turn, will be- nefit from the efforts of others when he reaches his last year. This serves two purposes: It spreads the work over a larger number of people, but most of all, it unites us into one working unit right at the start of a new school year. 27 mewRuM,77-IE HU NTER llEREWc CDME!

Winning thirteen out of fourteen games, they showed a splendid display of cooperation and sportsmanship. Mr. Osier coached the girls with the as- sistance of Mr. Graham. Both of them led the girls to victory with their good coach- mg. Muriel Winter, Leone Chadbourne, and Christie Packard were managers. They were a welcome sight to the girls at the half of an exciting game when they came through the door with their hands full of 1'efreshments. Doris Meldrum, jean Pushard, and Anita Sillanpaa cheered in the girls, game. They were joined later by Methel Atwood, Louise Philbrick, and Shirley Wilbur in cheering for the boys. There were many exciting games for the Kingfield girls this season. When the Rangeley girls played us at home, we beat them by four points in a fast and breath- taking game. When we went to Rangeley, Beverly Boynton, Eleanor Parsons, and Amanda Winter were handicapped with sprained ankles. Rangeley beat us, so each team is going to get a cup. The Kingfield girls played four non-lea- gue games. These were with Central High School and Woodstock High School. Mr. Lago, the principal of Woodstock High School and former principal of Kingfield Cross Country: Kingfield entered only one meet, which was the Franklin County meet held at Strong, October 25. The teams that entered finished in the following order, first, Wilton, second, Phillips, tied for third, Strong and Kingfield. Although our team placed last, we had the first run- ner to cross the finish line, Norman Tren- holm. This is the third year that he has Girls' Athletics Grammar School, asked us if we would ex- change games with them. We gladly ac- cepted. The girls appreciate the support given them by the cheer leaders and the home town people who attended both home and out-of-town games. Here are the girls that played. Forwards Guards M. Atwood B.

We have paid one hundred eleven semi-annual dividends, amounting to 5347,68O.7I. The average dividend rate since its incorporation is 3.42W. This does not include seven extra dividends. We have a surplus consisting of Reserve Fund SI00,000, and Profit and Loss Account SI7,438,06, total SII7,428.00. The State Law requires transfers from Profit and Loss to Reserve Fund until the Reserve Fund equals SW of the deposits. The new Federal Tax Law applies to all savings banks having over 12W in its Reserve Fund. This Bank has a surplus of over 1876 of its deposits. This ample provision for any contingencies that may arise is sufficient, and at present there is no necessity for increasing its surplus. It is contemplated that increased dividends may be paid to its depositors. The increase will start with the April T952 dividend. HERBERT S.
