Fre- quently, visitors are attracted to our town by the opportunities for fishing, hunting, bathing, quiet week-ends and even baked bean suppers. For the lack of a few im- provements in our grammar schools and academy, our young people seem to be mov- ing away and our visiting vacationists and -sportsmen are not tempted to make their homes here. We should improve our town not only to attract visitors, but to encour- age people to make their year-round homes here. Our own townspeople enjoy their farm lands, their wood lots with a good supply of fuel, places to hunt and fish as well as the lakes and ponds for recreation. They are glad to have a resident health nurse and organizations which promote the religious, social, and agricultural life of the town. They are proud of the Davis Memorial Li- brary and Limington Academy with its vo- cational courses in agriculture and home economics. In a number of respects there is still a chance for improvement. First of all, conditions should be made more favorable for the establishment of a business or factory of some kind by utilizing our water power. Many years ago, the Goodall Mills wanted to establish their busi- ness in Limington. They wanted to be free of taxes for ten years but Limington would not allow them to establish a factory here unless they would pay high taxes. An argu- ment could be made on either side. The Maine Central Railroad would have liked to come up the Ossipee Trail instead of through Steep Falls, but the taxes were too high. Business would be attracted if the property were revaluated and the tax rates were lowered. Improvements in the schools would en- courage newcomers to make their homes here. People with children think of educa- tion when moving. They want their chil- dren to have good training from capable teachers. They are also interested in the buildings in which the children receive their education. The safety of the building is usu- ally thought of first, next, whether the build- ing is comfortable for the students. A con- solidated school would attract good teachers as well as students. We shall not be able nA4A4A4 19.51 ' to hire good teachers in our schools unless we offer them higher ,salaries and better liv- ing conditions. In the academy we need a business course for the increasing number of students who want to learn to typewrite. Education, of course, is important but everybody knows that health is important, too. One big improvement in our own town would be to secure a good resident doctor. Prospects of a good home would encourage a doctor to come here. Two young doctors would have come here last year if they could have found a proper place. Health is wealth is an axiom which everybody be- lieves even if not stated in this form. Health is the most important thing in our life. Again, the scenery of Limington could be improved in many ways. Roadsides should be free of rubbish and bushes. People should be encouraged to put their papers and rubbish in the proper place. e Tourists do not take much notice of mere signs like Keep Off, but signs like Put Waste Here encourage the thing you want obeyed and are noticed twice as often as the plain and ugly Keep Off. Of course there are exceptions to thisg some people obey any sign. if wouldn't One of the best attractions to this town would be a park beneath the elms. Benches, bird baths, bird houses, hedges, flowers, and a fountain would help to make an attractive place for both young and old in what is now merely a four corners. People want a home in a town that pro- vides means for earning a living, good edu- cation for their children, protection for health by means of a doctor, and recreation. These things not only encourage newcomers but keep the people we have satisfied and contented. People may soon become dis- satisfied with things as they are, and leave for a place where there are better advan- tages compared to ours. I am certain we do not want them to do that. An attractive, neat, active town will at- tract newcomers and tourists, and also keep our own people satisfied. This is what, we, the citizens of Limington, must achieve. But what can I, a Sophomore in Liming- ton Academy, do to help along these sug- gested improvements? I can make the best use of what we have while working for some- thing better. I can study these questions, discuss them with other people and in that way help to create the sentiment for progress. , N. J. s., '5s.

Joyce Hasty was picked for the foul shooting in Portland. Roberta Smith and Dorothy McLucas were picked to play in the All-Star game. Frances Pul- sifer was picked for the All-League team. Arthur Dearborn and a member of the junior class played in the All-League game. This was what the seniors contributed to in sports. During the year we have been quite successful at putting on suppers. The seniors were asked to put on a supper for the sportsmen and the poultrymen which we did very well with good results we thought. We also have had several food sales in which we cleared between S35 and 3540. ' I We presented .a play called Smarty- pants in which all of the seniors and three I- :fir of the juniors, namely Dolores Howard, Alton Black, and Vern Blake participated. We presented it two nights at the town hall then we put it on at the Odd Fellows' Hall at Hollis and we divided the profits from it. We got Sl5.l3 down there. The seniors are leaving on their class trip to New York and Washington, April 13, and we hope to see a few of the most important things that time will allow. It is coming near our time to gradu- ate and we are beginning to be busy with our class partsg four honor parts were given this year. They were given in this order: Mary York, Valedictoryg Roberta Smith, Salutatoryg Dorothy McLucas, First Honor Essay, and Arthur Dearborn, Second Honor Essay. I hope the rest of my classmates will be very successful at whatever they do. ' Graduation is June 8, and we wish all of our underclassmates the best of luck and happiness in the future years to come. S. A. R., '5l. 19504444444 SOKOKIS IV.4RRIORAAAAAAA LITERAR Y THIN ICE Tonight there was a skating party up to Potter Academy. lt was a social for the young people of the Youth for Christ group. This is a group made up of young people of several churches from different towns. The boys and girls went up in a truck. When they arrived Mary went into the gym but found nobody there. She went down into the kitchen but found only a woman who said that the young people were all down on the pond skating. She said it would be a five-minute walk down there. We struck out for the pond. When we got half way across the pond we came to some shell ice. Further on there was a bog. The boys and girls were on their way across the bog when .jackie and Laura started go- ing ahead of the other girls. Susan, Gracie and Mary were behind the rest ol' them. There was snow on top of the ice but walk- ing along they sank only a little bit into the snow. As they were going along at a good speed Susan stepped through the snow upon thin ice. Crack! went the ice. One foot crashed into the cold water. When she tried to get up the extra 'weight of her other foot caused that one to break through also. Both feet were in the water up to her knees. Afterward, Mary met the same fate and Grace stood there laughing. All of a sudden she slipped and sat down into the icy water, also. When they were near enough to the pond to hear the voices of the other young people they started yelling for someone to come and meet them so they could find their way down to the pond. The three girls reached the pond at last. The two that got their feet wet were cold but they put their skates on and went skat- ing just the same. It was fun for a while but Mary and Susan were too cold to enjoy it much. They both took off their skates and went up to the gym. When they got up to the gym they went down into the kitchen and put their cold feet into the oven. What a relief! When the rest of the gang came up from skating we all went into the room and sang songs. Meanwhile refreshments were pre- pared and soon we were served hot dogs and cocoa. There was a little cocoa left in the cups that had been used. Eating must have had a bad effect on the boys. They felt like throw- ing things to create a little excitement. They 44444441951 threw the cocoa at the girls which hit them on the sides of their faces. They also played football with one that they found there. jackie had half a cup of cocoa left when he saw Bobbie throw a football at him. He ducked under the table so he wouldn't get hit. The football hit the cup of cocoa and knocked it down jackie's neck. It was about ten-thirty when we left Pot- ter Academy to come home. XV e got on the wrong road but we went down and turned around. We got home about eleven-thirty. R. M. B., '52. MY EXPERIENCE WITH THE DENTIST l was five years' old the first time I went to the dentist. Since my teeth had been aching very badly my mother and sister juanita went with me. When we arrived at the office the dentist The nurse took was getting ready for me. off my coat and led me to the chair. After it up high and I was seated she pumped then tied a napkin around my neck. I was interested in looking at all the instruments and rather enjoyed myself for a few minutes. Then the dentist came in. He stood be- side me and told me to open my mouth. Be- cause I didn't open it wide enough for him to see much he stuck his fingers in my mouth. I didn't understand why he should put his fingers in 1ny mouth! I did what I thought was bestg I bit his finger. I wouldn't let go either. The nurse came and finally the dentist got his finger loose. The dentist came out and told my mother that he would take my teeth out in the hospital and not in the chair. I guess he decided he didn't want to take another chance of getting his finger bitten. I don't blame him either. I wonder if he ever remembers it. If he did he hasn't said anything about it to me. I always supposed Mother and Juanita knew I bit his finger, but when I mentioned it to them a short time ago, they told me they never knew. They teased me about it but I didn't mind it. It's funny to me now to think back and see myself sitting in that chair, biting Dr. Stockwell's finger as hard as I could. I don't suppose it was funny to him. N. J. s., '53. F fftzm ,AAAAA LIMINGTOIV fIC.4DE.WY IMPROVEMENTS IN LIMINGTON Limington Academy was founded in the year of eighteen hundred and forty-eight when of course they had nothing but wood to burn and the academy looked pretty good to the older people. Now in the year ol' nineteen hundred and fifty-one, we still burn wood but we do not intend to other year. As for improvements already begun, the Agriculture boys and Mr. Mayo, whom you might call a supervisor, have rebuilt and done over our whole first floor which pro- vides us with a new library. A new Chemis- try room, an Agriculture room, a principal's ollice, and a boys' and girls' dressing room have been made downstairs. Upstairs we have new curtains for the windows, new book shelves, a new trophy case, and fluorescent lights. With a little help and encouragement, I think the rest of the school could be improved. It needs a paint job on the interior, a new furnace which should burn coal or coke in order that a fire could be kept during the week- ends and the building would not cool off so much. A little repairing made on a schoolhouse does a lot toward making it a warmer and pleasanter place for whatever it may be used for, in this case for studying. And who can study when it's cold and the furnace will not throw enough heat to warm the English room. If we had the im- provements that I have mentioned this school would have a better enrollment and a smaller group of absent students than it ever had before. To those who read this, let me say: Please do not say that what is good enough for you is good enough for us because this school is older than you realize. Let us improve instead of going backwards. A. S. B., '52. HH- SAVE OUR WILD LIFE Hunting and Hshing are two of the chief attractions to Limington, but when the people arrive with all their Hshing tackle and hunting equipment, they find that the brooks and woods do not furnish enough fish and game to bother with. .5 lvtn In Limington we have various brooks tl1at are wonderful places for the trout, but the people do not have enough interest to stock them. The Sportsmen's Club in Lim- ington should raise money and then go to the state hatcheries and buy little fish and put them into the brooks and streams. Let the state put a law on them for four or five years, then when the law would go off, we would have plenty of good trout as well as wonderful sport. A beaver dam is one of the best means of making a small rundown brook into a large pond that in no time would be full of pickerel and trout. I think that the State, or even the people of Lim- ington, should encourage the beaver to make dams in their brooks and even the small rivers. However, the dams should be destroyed before the pools become stagnant and the trout begin to die. The Little Ossi- pee River that runs through Limington is full of bass, chubs, pickerel, hornpout, suckers and eels for fine Hshingg and mink, otter and muskrat for fine trapping. Trout fishing is the kind of Hshing that people like best but conditions favorable to this sport are not maintained in Limington as well as in other towns in the State of Maine. There are various ponds in Limington that have all the Hsh in them that I have mentioned and more, too, such as sunfish and smelts. Some of them should be protected by a closed season for a few years similar to those provided in places we already have. The woods or forest is one of the greatest factors in keeping our game in the abun- dance that we like. If we cut our forests and then we don't replant them, there is no cover for the wild animals, such as squirrels, who live in the treetops, and run back and forth scolding each other. Some squirrels are very destructive to the cornfields and sometimes they will even get into a barn or storehouse, but they are very beautiful in the forests, especially the gray squirrel. We have lots of deer in Limington, but each year sportsmen from other places seem to get them before the townspeople do. The deer have game preserves where they can go for protection from hunters. In the winter the deer all have to bunch up and make yards because of the heavy snow. Lots of deer die because of lack of food when they 195044444444 do bunch up, so it is a better thing to hunt them for food then to have them wasted. The moose is not very plentiful in Liming- ton although they are slowly coming back in the town. The State has a law on them to protect them. There are not many bear in this town although people have seen signs of them. The bobcat is one of the IHOSI destructive animals in this town. Some people think that the bobcat goes into the game preserve and kills the deer and the other small wild-life, so therefore, we should do all we can to keep the number of bob- cats down to a certain extent. The Fish and Game Department have let out pheas- ants in different parts of the town. The pheasants have rings for leg-bandsj around their legs, which after a day's hunt, can be sent back to the game department and they can put out more pheasants if too many have been killed. I think this is a very good practice. We have another bird that most people can not distinguish and that is the partridge which furnishes a great sport for the hunters. We have owls that help the farmer out by killing rodents and insectsg they are not hunted to any extent. The porcupine or hedgehog is very destruc- tive to the forest trees and, therefore, should be kept down to a reasonable num- ber. Night hunting for the raccoon is very good sport, but the raccoon is very rare in some parts of the town and are more numer- ous in other parts. There are also a great number of rabbitsg therefore, hunters come from different towns to hunt them in Limington. Foxes are rapidly growing in number, but at one time, they were pretty well killed off. They can be very destructive at times as any ani- mal can. Groundhogs and skunks are not very popular in Limington and they are very destructive. We have birds so numer- ous that we do not have to worry about their being killed off, but we should not try to hunt and kill them, but help them as much as possible. Because of the beautiful birds we have, many visitors come to see them each year. If I have failed to mention any kind of wildlife in Limington, overlook it, and remember, every true citizen of Limington should help protect wildlife. I am sure that if the birds could talk, and also the fish and animals, they would say, thank you. C. N. H., '53. 444444419-51 SOKOKIS WARRIORAAAAAAA SPOILED BY A NEIGHBOR In a small town in Maine one bright May morning, about eight o'clcok, a small six- year-old by the name of Janie was out play- ing up and down the street. She wandered over to the house of her neighbor who was an elderly woman, and a very dear friend of Janie. Her name was Mrs. Murphy. She raised flowers for a living. Mrs. Murphy was away for the week-end. Janie went up to play on Mrs. Murphy's steps. While playing there, she noticed Mrs. Murphy's beautiful flowers. She had noticed those flowers before, and had been tempted to pick a bunch for her mother. This morn- ing had been diflerent, for somehow she just couldn't hold herself back from picking those flowers. Nothing meant more to Janie at this point than picking the flowers to take home to her mother. So, she picked a beauitful bouquet, and hummed a cheery song while doing so. After she had just about cleaned Mrs. Murphy's flower bed, she trotted home happy as any girl could possibly be, and thought she was performing a great deed, getting the flowers and giving them to her mother. Her mother' received the flowers with somewhat of a surprise, and asked, Janie, where did you get those flowers? Janie answered her mother truthfully, and replied, I took them from Mrs, Mur- phy's flower garden. Janie's mother was glad she had told her the truth, but felt very hurt to think that her daughter would steal. She tried to ex- plain to Janie that taking flowers from someone else's garden without asking for permisssion was stealing, but Janie did not understand. She felt very ashamed and ran up to her room crying. Her mother fol- lowed her to her room, and tried to talk to her. All Janie could say was that she thought that she and Mrs. Murphy were such good friends, that she could pick her flowers whenever she wanted to. She began to cry and flung herself across her bed. Her mother left her alone to think over what she had done. That afternoon Mrs. Murphy came home, and Janie's mother told her what had hap- pened. She felt as bad for Janie as Janie 444444 LfMfNGTO1V ffCz1DEfl4iY felt for doing such a thing. She said it was perfectly all right, as Janie didn't under- stand, but still Janie's mother felt uneasy about it. About a week later, Janie was out playing, and Mrs. Murphy asked her to come over. While she was there, Mrs. Murphy asked her if she would like to pick some flowers for her to sell. Janie felt ashamed and didn't know quite what to say, but Mrs. Murphy talked to her and told her she hadn't clone anything bad, so Janie helped Mrs. Murphy pick the flowers to sell. This is how children get spoiled. Some nice ladies like Mrs. Murphy, who have no one in the world to love, give all their love to a child whose parents are trying to bring her up properly. People like Mrs. Murphy do not realize they are spoiling the child, and believe me, folks, there are a lot of Mrs. Murphys in this world, that are spoiling all of us. E. J. H., '51, KIDNAPPED It was one warm summer day. Joan and her friend Mary wanted to go swimming to get cooled off and have some fun. They asked their mothers who were willing. Joan's mother said, Yes, but you listen to me first. You must be very careful with whom you take a ride if a car should stop. They wriggled into their swimming suits and started to walk to the swimming pool which was about three-quarters of a mile from home. As they were talking, Joan said, Aren't you scared to walk alone? After that lecture mother gave us I feel afraid of every car I see. As they were walking and talking, a handsome new car came along and stopped. Want a ride? asked the driver. No, thank you, replied the girls, who noticed that the driver and his companion had been drinking. However, instead of riding along the men got out and forced the girls into the back seat of the car, say- ing, You better not make any noise or try to get away, because if you do, we will never let you get back alive to your home. I' glzzern The girls were frightened to death and sat huddled together on the back seat, not daring to jump out of the car. They could see the men watching them in the mirror. They thought of writing a note and drop- ping it out but they had no pencil or pa- per. They rode on and on until finally they were up on the hills and the car stopped in front of a cabin. It was two-thirty when the girls had left to go swimming, they were due home by four-thirty. It was beginning to get dark when the fathers of the two girls came home from work. The mothers ran out of Joan's house and greeted the fathers with, Joan and Mary went down to the pool swimming and l1aven't come home yet. We had better go find them. ' They were all so excited that the men found it impossible to calm their wives. They couldn't imagine why the girls hadn't come home yet. They all got in the car and drove to the swimming pool. They looked all around but found no trace of their daughters. Other children there said they had not seen Mary or Joan. Next they drove to the police and sent them out hunting. Finally they thought of an idea that would help, they sent for an airplane. The plane was out for hours looking for the girls. When the aviator spied a camp up in the hills with a nice car setting outside, he reported to the parents that it looked sus- picious. They jumped into their car with the sheriff and followed the directions that the men gave. They walked up to the door of the cabin and without saying a word or knocking walked right in. They heard two girls cry- ing whom they took to be their own daugh- ters. They found the girls tied to a chair. The fathers rescued them while the sheriff captured the kidnappers in the next room. When asked why they kidnapped the girls, the men replied, We needed some money, this looked like an easy way to get some. The men were sentenced to jail for five years. Joan and Mary had learned their lesson and promised that if ever a strange car stopped again they would run for home. R. G., '53. 195044444444 BETTER SCHOOLS FOR LIMINGTON This subject I write about is one of much discussion in the Town of Limington. It is about the new elementary school. We all know there is varied opinion throughout. l know that each one insists that his reasons for being for or against the new school is right. But why won't we listen to the other fellow? See his point of view and then de- cide. Maybe if we listen and hear the other fellow we can see his reasons for his choice. Closing your ears isn't doing us children any good. Let me list for you the reasons people choose as they do. Then don't de- cide from what you hear but from what you see and know. The main reason for the people objecting to the building of the new elementary school immediately is that taxes will go up. Another thing that is said, lf the schools were good enough for my grandfather, they children. The are good enough for my people who want the new school list their reasons as: l. The present schools have unsanitary conditions. 2. The present schools have poor heat- In . '-'gl gl. The present schools have inadequate lighting. 4. One teacher must teach eight grades and six subjects to every grade every day. Of course this is impossible. 5. All the water supply must be brought to the school and there is hardly ever enough water for a day. Personally I'm all for the new school and I'll tell you why. Taxes may or may not go up but if they do go up the amount would be very small. For this small amount your children can have the kind of education that enables them to go to college or other further schooling and make a success of their lives. lsn't your children's future worth those few extra dollars? These schools, people say, were good enough for their grandfathers and should be good enough for their chil- dren. Grandfather went to these schools, yes: he used a horse and buggy, too. He plowed his lields with the horse team. To- day we still go to these schools but where is A444444 1951 SOKOKIS IIOIRRIORAAAAAAA the horse and buggy? Why do we use trac- tors instead of the horse team? Of course we use the automobile and tractor because they make progress faster but we are still making the slow progress in our schools as we did years ago. 1 know what our gram- mar schools are like, I've been to them. I came from the city where one teacher taught one subject and the pupil had a different teacher for every subject. The teacher had time to give to her class and the subjects were interesting and beneficial. You can imagine my surprise when I attended these schools and found one teacher teaching eight grades. To top it off she had to teach six subjects to every grade which as I said be- fore is impossible. The pupils were lucky il they got lessons in two subjects, usually reading and arithmetic, occasionally spell- ing. There are exceptions, however, in one or two cases where spelling was taught regular- ly. Naturally we didn't have time for other subjects which would be interesting and valuable later on. Even our teachers at high school agree that we who come to the acad- emy are not prepared. Then too, sitting near the wood stove would bring on severe headaches. During school hours it was so hot near the stove one could take no interest in his school work. On the other hand if one sat away from the wood stove it would be very cold and colds would occur often. There is no even heating at all. Another major strike against these schools is the use of the privy. This is very unsanitary for so many children to use. Flies and insects fly about them making it very unpleasant. Water for drinking and washing is inade- quate. All water must be brought to school and on hot summer days there isn't enough to drink or to wash dirty hands in. These things are truly not right. If we spend our money on a new ele- mentary school teaching conditions will im- prove greatly. A teacher won't have so many grades to teach. A person graduating from Limington now has to go to preparatory school if he desires to further his education. He must go to make up for the loss of an elementary education. Why not spend the money for better schools than have to spend it later on to go to a preparatory school? Then, too, the entrance exams to enter col- lege or other further schools are getting more rigid. Therefore, Limington graduates are getting a weaker chance to be admitted. Nineteen A4 A444 LIMINGTOIV JCIJDEA4 Y As I look over the population data I see that Limington's population is decreasing while other towns are increasing. It we had an elementary school that was up to stand' ard people from the overcrowded cities would come and settle down here. They would build houses, build up Limingtons population and increase its tax intake. Parents: you have invested much in us, your children, invest a trifle more and re- ceive interest on your investment. This is my opinoin of the situation and I sincerely hope you agree. We all want the best for our children. We are all interested in their future. Give us a chance, give us an education. Don't you think we deserve it? I hope so. I truly hope so. M. MCK. TWO HUNDRED FEET OF NOTHING It was early one morning in September, a nice clear cool morning. Tom went to Bill's house to get him to ride to the moun- tains. Bill was ready and they started out for Greenwood, a small town in the central part of Maine. It was a long trip of forty miles over hills and across rivers. They finally arrived at Greenwood, a very small village of four or five houses and one filling station. They stopped at the filling station to inquire if they were on the right road. The attendant could not tell them so they went on to see if they could find Noyse Mountain. They could not find N oyse Mountain but they discovered another mountain with a height of about eight hundred feet and they decided to climb it. On one side of the mountain there was a cliff of about two hundred feet, on the other side was a long steep slope covered with thick woods and brush surrounding a spring which was the source of a small brook. Since it looked like an interesting climb the boys started up the wooded slope toward the top of the mountain. It took them thirty minutes to reach the top where the view was so broad that they could see in all directions. Down toward the cliff was very steep but they decided to descend down as far as the cliff. They had no trouble until they were about fifty feet above the cliffg then Bill slipped and started sliding. It was so steep here that he caught hold of a bush with his feet and he turned around and he went on toward the cliff head first. Twenty When he started to go over the edge of the cliff one of his feet caught in a crack in the rock where he was. Tom tried to help but he couldn't without a rope so he went back to the car to get one. lVhile he was gone the blood rushed to Bill's head and he was thoroughly frightened. Two hundred feet of nothing was all that was under him. The view was not of much interest since it looked very strange upside down. He thought Tom would never come. Tom. had to go over the top of the mountain and down the other side. It was at least a mile. Thirty minutes after Bill slipped, Tom re- turned with the rope. He found Bill still there. His foot was paralyzed so he did not dare move much. Tom lowered the rope down to him and he tied it around his waist. Tom tied the other end around a tree and then pulled Bill up. Bill could not stand on his feet and Tom had to help him over the top of the moun- tain and down the other side. Two hours later, they arrived at the car. Tom drove Bill to the doctor's. The doctor said Bill's foot would be all right in a few days. They went home and ever after carried a rope with them when they were climbing moun- tams. - R. E. P., '52. A HECTIC DAY The day started out very well, and I thought I was going to get along very well. But I found out differently. I had just sent the children off to school when the baby began howling. I didn't have any housework done yet but I had to pick the baby up and get him to sleep. As it was wash day, I started the machine and got the clothes into it. While they whirled away I started doing the dishes, but I broke a cup and cut my finger. just then the baby began howling again. When I ran to the nursery, I tripped over the wash- ing machine cord and pulled it out of the socket. By the time I reached the bedroom the baby had managed to go back to sleep. I went back to my dishes, and got them done after a fashion. I got the first tub of clothes into the basket and started carrying it out to the line when the bottom fell out. I shoved the clothes back into the machine, then I went upstairs and made the beds. As I was 195044444444 making one, the bed fell down on my toe, and 1 went limping around for the rest of the day. I finally got it back together. As I was coming downstairs, I stubbed my toe and fell down. The noise must have disturbed the baby, because he started cry- ing again. l picked him up and staggered into the kitchen. As I passed through the doorway I saw white stuff all over the floor. Come to find out the washing machine had been going so long that the soapsuds had run over the edge of the tub. I put the baby on the floor to play, and for once he was good and didn't cry. I vacuumed the living and dining room rugs without any trouble. But when I came back into the kitchen, the baby was playing in the soapsuds. Well, I got that cleaned up, and gave him a cookie to eat. This made him happy, so 1 started getting my clothes ready to hang out. I put them in a sturdier basket this time. When I went to get the baby fl take him outdoors when I hang out the clothesj, where do you suppose he was? In the middle of my living room rug, with crumbs all over the place. I swept them up, and we went outdoors. I got the clothes hung out all right. Then I happened to glance at my watch. My goodness! Only fifteen minutes until my husband would be home for dinner. I went in, put the baby in his play pen, and started getting some hash ready. Mlhile it was cooking, I set the table, and picked up the kitchen. just as I got the washing machine put away, my husband drove in the yard. What was that smell? Oh, my hash was burning. l was almost in tears when my husband came in, but managed to hide them. When we sat down to dinner, he said the hash was just right. I could have kissed him right then. Everything turned out all right, after all. D. L. H., '52. NEVER A DULL MOMENT I'm sorry the manager isn't in, said the girl to the visitor who had strutted in. Is there anything I can do for you? No, snapped the visitor, I never deal with underlings. I'll wait until the manager returns. 44444441951 SOKOKJS W'f1RR1oR,,,,,,, About an hour later the haughty person became impatient. How much longer do you think the manager will be? he de- manded. About two weeks, was the reply, He just left on vacation. When do you expect him back from vacation? demanded the stranger. Well, I told you two weeks, that will be two weeks from today, replied the girl. With that the stranger walked out the door. Meanwhile the manager, Mr. Scott, was fishing at Horseshoe Lake. His line was wobbling and he started pulling in the line. When he got'it just above the water, he saw that it wasn't a fish that he had caught, it was a snake. Since he was fond of snakes, he decided to keep it. After he killed the snake he put it in a cracker box. lt was a huge specimen. - Soon Mr. Scott was tired of fishing. He didn't catch any fish so he started out with the box. As he was going along he met up with a bear which he thought was wild and Herce. Qlvfr. Scott didn't know it was a tame bear.j When he saw the bear he was so scared that he ran right into the bear and dropped the box. The bear just stood there and put his paws around the man. He thought the bear was never going to let go of him. He twisted and turned until he finally got away. He started running as fast as he could, then he remembered he had forgotten the box so he went back after it. The bear had disappeared. By this time he had calmed down. One day when he was out walking in t-he woods a cat popped out in front of him. The first thing he knew he was climbing a tree. He didn't know that the tree he had climbed was rotten until he heard it crack. He landed on some moss and what do you think he saw! It was the same cat that made him rung it proved to be only a skunk. Boy, did he get out of there fast! Mr. Scott's vacation was over. He had his packing to do before he went back to his office again. He got out his suitcase and opened it. When he opened it he got a big surprise. There in the bottom of his case were two little skunks. He wanted to keep them but he had no place for them in the city because they do not allow pets in the apartments. He took them out and put them in his bed to sleep. He finished pack- ing and was on his way to the city. Twenty-one 54 4444 LIMINGTOIV 1iC,fiDEA4iY Jane, the girl that took care of his office, was there when he arrived. She was busy when he walked in. She didn't notice that he had a bag which he. put down by her desk. Jane nearly always brought her lunch in a bag so he swapped bags. When it came time for her to eat her lunch, she took the bag and put it on her desk. She opened it and out jumped a little mouse. She nearly jumped out of her chair when she saw what she had for dinner. The mouse jumped out of her lap and onto the floor. She was standing on her desk when Mr. Scott came into the room. What are you doing standing on your desk? he asked. Why I saw a mouse and you know I am afraid of them, answered jane. You get right down from there and start working! was his answer. I will get down from here if you will get that thing out of this room, and you shall do it yourself! Well, Mr. Scott was on the floor chasing the mouse and you should have seen him crawling on his hands and knees after that mouse. The mouse jumped onto his lap and down his neck. Mr. Scott was off that floor in no time flat. The office bell rang and who should ap- pear but that haughty stranger of two weeks before. R. M. B., '52. IMPROVEMENTS FOR LIMINGTON Loyal citizens of Limington appreciate the many natural advantages of our town, also visitors coming in enjoy many pleasures here. They are interested in visiting our apple orchards, our lumbering operations, and our poultry farms. They like to hunt in our woods and fish in our ponds. They admire our beautiful elm trees. Best of all visitors are attracted by our church. For instance, one Sunday morning, a couple from Portland riding by saw our church on the hill, stopped and came in. After our service they told us that our church was so homey that they just had to stop and come inside. But besides our advantages we have some disadvantages. Our roads are not good, our schoolyards are not plowed out, we have no fire engine, and very little equip- ment. We have no place for children to T eng'-I-wo play. VVe need more improvements in our church. We need a doctor, we need a water system, we need better schools. Our roads have had some improvements but they still need more. Most of them are not very good, especially the back roads. In winter the back roads are never plowed until the last thing. When We come to school in the morning our schoolyards are never plowed. The roads are sanded only when those in charge need some money. The next thing we need is a fire engine and more equipment. Our fire engine is our snowplow in the winter. Our fire equip- ment consists of hand pumps kept in the town hall. If we had a fire, while they were loading the fire equipment on the truck, the fire would do a lot of damage. We have to call on another town for a fire engine but we have to call our selectmen first. By the time all arrangements are made our house would be burned down. What good does it do to call for help? About our children: We all love our children and we want them to have places where they can play and get acquainted with other children as in nursery school or playgrounds. The older children should have young people's meetings or some other activities which will keep them out of trouble, like driving their cars just as fast as they can, or drinking. They should not be doing it but we know a lot of them are. The parents could help if they wanted to. But what is the use if parents do not care what their young people are doing. A lot of this carelessness could be stopped if they would try. Let us do something about it! Our church has been improved in various ways but it needs more painting and more people going to church. We do not have very many people at church on Sundays. I think we should have more, don't you? People who live right in the village hardly ever go to church, it is the people who do not live in the village who attend most regularly. At North Limington they are doing very well. They have a young people's group and a Sunday School con- ducted by Nancy Harmon. She is doing very well. I, myself, have started a Sunday School at Limington Village. My first Sun- day I had only three children, the next Sunday I had four, and last Sunday I had six. So you see anyone can do it if they really want to. I950A4A4AA44 We need a good doctor in this town such as we used to have. We had a chance to have a good doctor in this town but did we get him? N ol Ivhy? Because the people in town would not find a place for him to stay. What we need is a little get up and go in this town. If they wanted to they could find a place. What is a town without a doctor? It is not quite a town. If anyone were sick he would have to call an out- of-town doctor and by the time he got dressed and got going anyone could die be- tore he got there. These are just a few of the reasons why we should have a doctor in town. We have a dentist and nurse but most of all we need a doctor. Our water system is not very good and we need it very badly. One foolish thing this town did was to refuse the offer many years ago from Ben Cousens. He was will- ing to put in a water system but Limington ielused, so he did it for Steep Falls. We need water for hydrants for fire fighting, for plumbing in our schools and for our home use. We need water all the time and that is the reason why we should have a water system in this town. We have wells of water, yes, but we need a supply that does not go dry. For better schools the first things we need are water and heat. Our school buildings are getting very old. They have no running water. The boys carry what they can and it freezes in the winter and it is not good to drink. As for heat, the stoves do not even heat up our one-room schoolhouses to say nothing of the school with more than one room. What we need is just one good con- solidated schoolhouse, then they can have better e uipment, better ways of heating, and good water fountains. They have good schools in other towns, why can't they have good schr ols in our town? Our high school would bt all right if we had water and a good heating system. But I do think that our gran mar schools should be improved, don't yor? I think it will take time to improve our town but we can do it if we make up our minds to do it. If we work hard and work together we can have a better town. Vis- itors who come here may be encouraged to stay. I hope we can. I will try to do my part. Even if I am not old enough to vote, I can hel in other ways. I am going to ioin the ciass in First Aid for Civil Defense. I hope we can encourage everyone to do his part. We hope that we can and we will have a better town. B. F. R., '53, .44444441951 SOKOKIS WUIRRIORAAAAAAA RADIO SCRIPT Autobiography of Meself Well, folks, I came to be in a little town named Bumperville, Kentucky. It got its name because everybody had bumps from hitting each other. But seriously I was born in 1833 A. D., December 32, was the date. My ma and pa were really swell, so folks sayg you see I never saw my folks for they were in their graves before I was born. My name was Faith, l was named after Old Faithfull l 1 spent my childhood with my mother's ma, they called her my grandma, well, anyway, I lived with her, and boy, what a woman! l Oh, sl1e's all right in her place, but that isn't dug yet. I was very bright in school. I stayed in the fourth grade three years, you see my sister was in the fifth and I didn't want to pass by her. Oh, yes, my sister is quite a girl but she's married now. She's really unusual so her husband says, you see it isn't everybody that is bow-legged, ding- toed, and cross-eyed, too. I have a brother, too, he's been stationed on an island the past five years. The name of it is Alcatraz, I guess. Got a letter the other day and he said they wear black and white uniforms. When I was twelve years old, I celebrated my third birthday, you see I was born on leap year. My friends gave me a big party in which the main event was a game I in- troduced. Everybody had to go out and bring back the strangest, most broken-down thing they could find. Boy! That's the last time I'll ever play that game, they brought me back five times before they realized who I was. The most exciting time of my life was my first date. 1'll never forget it. Every- thing ran smoothly until Jim kissed me goodnightg I still don't know what hap- pened except that jim passed out cold. I haven't had a date with him or any other male critter since then and I probably never will, for most folks say I look like a.n old maid. Well, folks, there you have it, my life thus far. And though it may seem unbelievable, I've enjoyed every minute of it, and if you do not like it, do not read it. Yours truly, Meself. R.

The trick is to get a pull Through some friend, although, Some cars are full, And others just say no. To the game we go Happy as can be, Hoping we'll win But just wait, and see. We play the game As hard as we kin, Two minutes to play Sure hope we win. , The ref blows the whistle We lose by three points. The crowd then says Limington should loosen their joints. Off to the dressing room, Disappointed at our game. Everyone is thinking, The other team won the fame. Everyone is getting dressed, Our muscles sore and lame. just give us one more whack We'll win the honored name. Players scramble to their cars Already to start back. Surely wish we'd won the game, Wonder what we lack. We're on our way back home now, Each singing a gay little tune. Then one speaks up for all the rest, I hope we eat pretty soon. We have now arrived at Lou and Al's. Good food for everyone here, It's great to feel we're such good pals, While taking seats with cheer. Everyone is ordering sandwiches, We are all talking at the same time. For drinks some order root beer, While others order lime. 'We joke and laugh while eating As much as we can hold. We pay the bill, run back to the car, Boy, is'it ever cold. We're on our way to Limington Homeward bound at last. just looked at my wrist watch, It's eleven or half past. T-'wmly-four Everyone says we got to go home, For school keeps the very next day. We're so tired we can't help but wonder If all these games actually pay. We arrive home, call it early, At twelve or quarter past. Our folks still up and worrying, Wondering if we drove too fast. I tell the folks we lost the game And give the final scores, It's a good night kiss, And then a slam of doors. 4 I sleep and dream about the game. There are many worries, you see, But the basketball teams tho' losing Are still happy as can be. 13. J. H., '51. MY STUDYING Study, study, study that's all there is to do, Mornings before school, in school, and after school. too. But it seems like the only way in which to succeed. To be able to get out into the world and get what we need. Bookkeeping comes first and that takes a long time, That is, I don't know about the others but it sure does mine. Whether debit or credit, liability or asset, You have to know these things in order to pass it. French comes next, to translate it you have to know quite a bit, Whether present, past, future, he, she, or it. From French to English and English to French. To be able to do this subject it isn't a cinch. Next comes the subject of P of D, That's what I call it for short, do you understand me? Problems in Democracy is what it is written on paper. To pass the test is not just a caper. Home Economics is always good to know, It helps in present day living and later life also. We have two periods of this, you see, The last one is usually a spare, which is handy to me. English consists of both poetry and prose, Autobiographies, travels, essays, and that isn't the close. There are many other things you get from your English classes, Both young or old, either lads or lasses. In poetry I'm not very good so let's forget it, If you don't like this I'm sorry you read it. If ever any more of my poems you should find, Whether you read them or not you can make up your own mind. ' ' - R. A. S., '51. I950A4A444AA.

He was thinking of his loved one As he went along his way. Remembering the day her hand he won just as though it were yesterday. Now they were many miles apart. They parted some time ago. Still she was foremost in his heart, And it would be ever so. He wondered as he was walking What she was doing that night. I wonder if she is home talking, Sitting by the fireside bright. No one need ever write me To say she has been untrue, For she said before I sailed the sea. I will always be true to you. A.

We elected the following officers at our first class meeting: president, Vern Blake, vice president, Alton Blackg secretary, Rose Marie Bodemerg treasurer, Dolores How- ard: our advisor was Mrs. Chick whom we wish to thank for her help and understand- ing. We sold chocolate milk and candy un- til November and then the activity club started selling tonic at the gym. We have had two food sales and plan to put on the senior ball and the junior prom. The reason that we have not put on more activi- ties the first of this year was that the seniors had to earn most of their money for the class trip this year. 44444441951 We all take English from Mrs. Chick, three of us take algebra from Mr. Mayo, four of us take problems of democracy from Mrs. Dickson, two take home eco- nomics from Mrs. Dickson, four take chem- istry from Mr. Griffiths, two take mechani- cal drawing and one takes aft from Mr. Griffiths, one takes French from Mrs.' Chick, and three take agriculture from Mr. Mayo. Dolores Howard went from our class to be on the spelling team. Dolores How- ard, Vern Blake and Alton Black were in the senior drama and all the others took prize speaking. Three will go to Orono with the agriculture class. Four of our class play basketball and four play base- ball. R. P., '52.

English and world history are the re- quired subjects for us this year. The girls take home economics and the boys take agriculture. Three of our class take general science and the remaining four, algebra. September 5 after we had enrolled, we held our first class meeting of this year with Mrs. Ellen Dickson as our class advisor. We elected our class officers as follows: president, Herbert Ramsdellg vice presi- dent, Gilbert Gammon, secretary, Grace Pariseaug and treasurer, Nathalie Shea. Carl Harmon and Herbert Ramsdell were chosen as representatives to the activities board. We began to make plans for the freshman initiation and reception. Another meeting was held, and the dates for the freshman initiation and reception were made, also plans were made regarding the latter. September I4 we initiated the fresh- men by turning their clothes wrong side out. The girls had their hair tied with rags, covered with a stocking. September 15 the freshman reception was held in the gym. Herbert Ramsdell was master of cere- monies and read the list of stunts. The freshmen were very good sports. The rest of the evening was given to dancing, the first dance being given to the freshmen. We sold refreshments. All in all the recep- tion was a success. Agnes Manchester's orchestra furnished the music. Next, we held a movie, November 16 at the town hall. Frisco Sal was the movie we chose, and we also had some short subjects. We sold fudge, candy bars, 444444 19-51 pop corn and tonic for refreshments. Due to the townspeople and students of Liming- ton Academy, we had a very successful night. A Tony and Juanita show was held February 5, at the town hall. For refresh- ments we had pop corn, fudge and ice cream. We had a very good crowd and were very profitable on all sales. Those, from our class, participating in basketball are Ruth Gammon and Herbert Ramsdell. Next of importance is that we would like to mention' that two of our class, Bar- bara Ramsdell and Nathalie Shea, entered an essay contest sponsored by the Standish Kiwanis Club. The subject was What Improvement can be made in our town within the next ten years which will benefit living conditions and what can I do per- sonally to bring it about? Five schools participated in the contest, one from each town being chosen as winners. Nathalie Shea was the winner from our school. The winners will go to Boston in june. There are many events that will come later this year, but so far we have had a happy and successful year at Limington Academy. We would like to thank Mrs. Dickson, Mrs. Chick, Mr. Griffiths, and Mr. Mayo for making our class so interesting, and also that they have made our sophomore year at Limington Academy very pleasant and successful.

The freshman reception was held at the gymnasium on September 16. The students had to perform the following stunts: May- ola Garland and Chester Black had to roll onions the length of the gym floor with their noses. Peter Childs, Raymond How- ard, Hazel Bodemer, and Marilyn McKin- non had a mock wedding with Victor Worden as justice of the peace. Gerald Worden and Marion Harmon had to dance together. Rodney Garland and Rosemary Colby had to feed sour pickles to each other blindfolded. Pauline Black sang Put Your Arms Around Me Honey to all the boys. Shirley Gammon and True Day had to dance. Evelyn Tufts had to comb and tie a ribbon on Gerald Blake's hair and Gerald Blake had to pin curl Evelyn Tufts' hair. A dance followed the reception. 44444441951 At our first class meeting, we elected officers as follows: president, Gerald Blakeg vice president, Rodney Garlandg secretary, Marilyn McKinnon, and treasurer, Hazel Bodemer. On january 16 we started a paper drive, from which we collected over one hundred dollars. We had a dance in honor of the paper drive which was free of charge to anyone who wished to come. At this dance we crowned a king and queen of the carni- val. We, the Freshman Class, would like to thank Mr. Mayo, our advisor, for all the help which he has given to us. We would also like to thank the teachers for all that they have done to bring us through our freshman year successfully. P. B. and E.

We had a faculty of four teachers, two of them were new, Mr. Griffiths our new principal and Mr. Mayo our new agriculture teacher. We started school this year on a rotating schedule, which we like very much. Tc start things off we dressed up the freshmen one morning and the following night we had the reception and a dance afterwards. The freshmen were very good sports about the whole thing. We have had movies either on Tuesdays or on Thursdays during activities periods. We have ten new shades for the windows in the main room. On October l4 the junior class had a food sale. In October we had the hornets, all the students were batting them around with anything they could get hold of. Novema ber 3 the seniors had a food sale. On November 9 the senior class of Hollis had their play at Limington, Maine, with the seniors at Limington Academy getting half of the profits. On November 20 the sopho- mores had a movie. About the first of December Mr. Mayo, and the agriculture boys started taking out partitions down- stairs so that now we have two more class rooms in our school building which makes it much more convenient. We also had new fluorescentilights put into our main room upstairs. After that we had the elm tree cut down that was in front of the school. On December 30 the seniors had a movie. january 19 the freshmen had a paper drive. On February 5 the sopho-- mores had a Tony and Juanita show. On February 7 the seniors had a sportsmen's supper and on February 8 they had a poul- trymen's supper. February l7 the seniors had another food sale. On the 28th they had a Washington dance. The seniors had a paper drive the- last week in February. The school had the gym ceiling painted and the fioor fixed during February. On March the 5th and 6th the seniors put on their drama. On March 13 they showed their drama at Hollis. We would like to thank the teachers in all that they have done to help us through this year very suc- cessfully. And we wish to thank also the townspeople for going to our activities which the various classes have put on. B. R., '53. H OME ECONOMICS HOME ECONOMICS I The Freshman home economics class had an enrollment of nine, seven girls and two boys. One girl and one boy dropped out. First we studied personal appearance, grooming, clothing care, and textiles. The course also includes nutrition for health, personal and social living, the wise use of money, child care, and vo- cational opportunities. In the future we plan to go to Bates cotton mill. , We all want to thank Mrs. Dickson for her kindness and patience. We all hope she will be back with us next year. H. B., '54. HOME ECONOMICS II In the fall of nineteen hundred and fifty, we started with the cooking unit which lasted for fifteen weeks. The food prepared was suitable for breakfast and lunch boxes. F or! y-eight The next fifteen weeks was the sewing unit. The next six weeks we will take up home nursing and first aid. In September, we went to Fryeburg Fair. WV e had to watch for anything which would interest us in Home Economics. In November, the Sophomores, juniors and Seniors attended the food fair at the City Hall in Portland. We looked for new ideas, and watched a food demonstration put on by a homemaker. In January, we entertained the Freshman class, Sophomore boys, and teachers at a Dessert Party. Vie had homemade cookies and cocoa. Each girl made two kinds of cookies. On town meeting day we had open house at school. We were on duty in Home Eco- nomics to show the people around. We especially want to thank Mrs. Dick- son for being so patient with us and hope she will continue for many years. R. M. G. 19504444444 HOME ECONOMICS III AND IV This class has eight members, six Seniors and two juniors. We started the year with the study of a unit on Family Relationships. This in- volved learning how to get along with other people. We were taught that a good per- sonality and an attractive appearance helps us to make the most of ourselves. We visited the food fair in Portland one day. We all enjoyed it very much. Also we have taken advance child care. SOKOKJS WARRIORAAAAAAAA The remainder of the year is to be taken up with the study of home mechanics, busi- ness and management of the home, and individual problems. Each girl has two home projects to do during the year. The home economics girls have spring cleaning at the end of the year. We want to thank Mrs. Dickson for her co-pperation with the junior and Senior gir s. Rosiz BODEMER, '5 l . AGRICULTURE AGRICULTURE I Agriculture l consists of a class of five boys who are: Chester Black, Raymond Howard, Gerald Blake, Peter Childs, and Rodney Garland. We have learned many things with the help of our teacher, Mr. Mayo. We went on three field trips, one to Fryeburg Fair, one to MacArthur's apple orchard, one to several different places to get soil profiles. On the field trip to Frye- burg Fair, we had papers to fill out on the different kinds of dairy breeds, poultry breeds, sheep, hogs, beef animals, vegetables and machinery. On our field trip to Mac- Arthur's orchard, we learned how to pick apples. We saw the different varieties of apples. We picked apples all the afternoon. On our field trip to get soil profiles, we learned the different kinds of soil and what they looked like. We intend to go on more field trips before the year is over. ln shop work, we made lamps for Christ- mas presents for our mothers. We also made miter boxes, set new glass in all the broken windows and made two bookcases for the main room. In shop work we also did a lot of remodeling. We tore out the old office and made a new oflice in the chemistry room. We put-up a partition in the big room downstairs and made two rooms out of it. We tore the wall out be- tween the boys' and girls' dressing rooms and made a bookroom between them. Each boy in this class decided that his most interesting subject was as follows: Rodney Garland, dairyingg Gerald Blake, dairyingg Chester Black, poultry, Peter Childs, dairyingg Raymond Howard, dairy- in . g R. G., AND P. C., '54. s44A444I95I AGRICULTURE III AND IV Agriculture lll and IV is made up of seven boys, including six juniors and one Senior. Mr. Mayo, our instructor, made out a sched- ule for each student for the whole year's work. l'his schedule has divided the school year of agriculture classes into units and each unit into parts. We-have classes Monday, Wednesday and Friday. We have double period classes on said days. The following is a list of the articles we have taken up: l. The importance of agriculture in the life and economy of the community, the area, and the State. 2. The importance of agriculture in the national life and economy. 3. Dependence of agriculture upon na- tional resources. il. Importance and conservation of nat- ural resources. 5. Farming as a career. 6. Becoming established in farming. 7. Types of farming. 8. The characteristics and management of the soil. 9. Plant growth and nutrition. 10. How plants multiply. ll. Elementary principles of crop culture. 12. Elementary study of livestock. I3 Improvement of plants and livestock. I4. Beautification of home grounds, lawns, trees, shrubs, flowering plants, etc. I5. Household mechanics. Our agriculture program includes the following: I. Surveys for information about local con- ditions and practices. 2 Problems, particularly those involving elevation and judgment. Forly 444444 LfMfNG7lO1V flCxfDEfll'Y 3. Field trips for observation and study of local agriculture. 4. Experimentations and demonstrations. 5. Projects, experimental and exploratory, to gain to a limited extent. The class has worked mostly on numbers 2, 4, and 5 this winter because they can be done indoors whereas numbers l and 3 have to be done outdoors. The class did go to East Limington last fall and took soil profiles of different fields and compared and studied them. We also went to Ralph Weston's to study apple trees and apples. For projects we have made table lamps. We have made great changes on the first floor of the academy building: we made a bookroom downstairs, a new laboratory and an agriculture room. We made new book shelves for the main room. But we intend to do more in the way of field trips and surveys in the spring. All of the boys like the course and I think that it makes a great improvement in the school. D. B., '52.
