THE LINCOLNIAN Five C0l17'l1'8jl. Grlmlril I'11l1IiSILil1L1 UU. On the morning of April 22nd one of the fondest dreams of my life came true. I was on the platform of our assembly hall and I hacl just introduced one of the most famous people in the United States, none other than Rudy Vallee. For long months I had writ- ten and waited, hoped and prayed, and now I know that patience and persistence have their reward. Rudy was talking to the pupils on How to Make the Most Out of Onc's Life Work. He said that everyone's ambition was to gain success or achievement Cand he preferred the word achievement which implied prolonged success in the face of obstaclesj. He said that many people think that success is a secret formula but he had found out that it is composed of three factors: natural talents. environment, and a golden opportunity. He gave the following advice: i'l.ook yourself squarely in the face: and if you lack certain necessary qualities, discourage yourself in the field you have chosen, He vividly likened J person's prepara- tion for his life work to a surgeon's preparation for an operationi if one tool was missing the operation might not be a success. The climax to the program was when at Mr. Stevens' request Rudy, all smiles, stepped down from the platform to conduct our school orchestra in his favorite, The Maine Stein Song. The pupils of Lincoln Junior High School will long remember the delightful morning of April 22, 1938! PAUL KEYES, DIV. F-8 Six THE LINCOLNIAN THE LEGEND OF THE IVORY BRACELET It was the most beautiful courtyard I had ever seen. It was like fairyland and it retained all the pomp and splendor of old India. In the center of this gorgeous courtyard on a velvet cushion in a glass case decorated with gold lay a strikingly carved ivory bracelet. This bracelet caught my gaze because of all the attention it was receiving. indians of rank and position who received the admiration of all were bowing in humble devotion to this beautiful bracelet. I consulted my English friend as to the history of this bracelet and as he told the story. I was swept back through time to early India where I paused to look on as this beautifully tragic story was unfolded before my Ayes' -r fa- x a wr at It was almost midnight and the full tropical moon floated lazily along its sky trail, reflecting its weird light on the still jungle below. All was silent but the continuous roar of the river as it sped over rough crags on its way to the sea. Now and then the stillness was broken by the roar of a tiger or the trumpet call of an elephant as he ducked his companion in the river. High above the mysterious jungle on a rocky hill stood the palace of the Nlaharajah, ruler of the north Indian province of Suristani. The palace courtyard looked more like midday than nearly midnight. as elephants were being brought into line and seats were being placed on their backs. Mahouts were chaining the ele- phants together and many score of servants were loading them. Rifles were being loaded and spears and knives were in readiness. Although all were hustling and were apparently used to their tasks. a certain tenseness hung over the scene and all spoke in animated whispers. Suddenly all moved back against the walls and knelt as the Maharajah in all the glory and splendor of an Indian prince appeared. His guard of honor in gay uniforms followed close behind, the priests bringing up the rear. A servant appeared in the doorway and beckoned the Maharajah. After a discussion the Maharajah gave his consent to the servant's request. Shortly after, a girl appeared in the courtyard. About eighteen years of age, she was tall and slender, with beautiful dark eyes and hair and a smooth olive complexion. She was bareheaded and wore a plain black velvet cape with no jewelry except a small finely carved ivory bracelet. This girl was the Maharajah's only daughter. Her wish was his command. At the sight of her. uneasiness swept the party and a stubborn expression crept over the face of the high priest. for it was a well- known fact that a girl on a hunt was an evil curse. The girl ap- proached her father, knelt in reverence and started toward the largest elephant. At this point the' high priest interfered. No, he said sullenly. The girl turned inquiringly toward her father who, with an angry gesture. summoned .thehigh priest to him. T HE LINCOLNIAN Seven A heated argument followed as the high priest hated his ruler too much to yield. Suddenly the Maharajah's mighty voice boomed out, She is no curse. I say she shall go and by the grace of Brahma she shall go! The priest was about to answer but thinking better of it walked sullenly to his elephant to await'the pax-ty's departure. Twelve strokes came from the oriental gong and the natives knelt in prayer. Then they rose and mounted silently. The palace gates swung open and the party passed through them. Down the treacherous trail into the jungle walked the ele- phants. Just before dawn the party reached the small village of Rhutan at the very door of the tiger country. On into the tiger-infested area swept the party. Shortly after this. they reached their destination. Here they rested until nightfall. About midnight the hunters took their elephants and prepared for the night's work. The nrst hunting party was successful so the Maharajah allowed his daughter to go on the next one. But on this one several men were lost. This continued for a week and was climaxed by the disappearance of one entire group, all but the high priest. In their anger the natives threatened to kill the Maharajah unless he sent his daughter back alone to his palace. The Maharajah refused but his daughter pleaded that if she did not go. all would bf lost. Finally, the Maharajah consented and the girl started home a one. A few hours later a number of the lost party returned and revealed that it was the high priest, not the girl, who had done the evil. The party immediately set out after the girl but a tiger had claimed her. All that remained was the tiny ivory prayer bracelet that the girl's father had had made from the tusk of the first ele- phant she had captured. Her father took the bracelet and for many years it was kept in the glass case in front of the palace where the natives came to worship it. At the death of the Maharajah the bracelet was lost and famine and tragedy stalked the land. A few years later the bracelet was recovered and the people prospered once more. Although the natives have been offered fortunes for the bracelet, they remain steadfast in their belief that should the bracelet slip from their hands their kingdom would crumble and fall as their princess had so many years ago. HENRIETTA HAMMONDS, DIV. C-8 HOMEMADE GHOSTS Do you believe in ghosts? Joan and I did until-. Well, here's the story. We were walking down a lonely road one afternoon. Suddenly it began to thunder and lightning flashed. In a few minutes it began to pour. A short distance from us was an old house to which we hurried for shelter. Eight THE LINCOLNIAN As we approached the house a hollow booming sound was heard. On the front door was painted Haunted House with a large skull and crossbones underneath. This sound together with the sign startled us but rather than get wet we decided to go in. The door opened easily and as we entered the hallway. the booming sound grew louder and every door in the house seemed to be opening and closing. Black storm clouds made it quite dark within. We decided to stay near the door so that a quick exit could be made if anything like a ghost should appear. The storm lasted about fifteen minutes and so did the booming sound and slamming of doors. The moment the rain stopped we left hurriedly, glad to get out of that house. Before we had gone far the sun came out bright and warm and with it came most of our lost courage. We stopped and talked about ghosts and wondered if the house could really be haunted. Joan said she had been told that ghosts did not come out in the daytime. Hoping that was true. we decided to go back and explore the place. On entering, we again heard the same sounds. The first door upstairs was banging noisily. We found that the door could not com- pletely open or shut because of large rocks in front of and behind the door. The windows were all broken. allowing gusts of wind to blow through the house and causing the door to swing between the rocks, making a loud noise each time it hit. We found all the doors in the house fixed that way. That cleared up one mystery but what made that hollow sound? After thoroughly searching every room on the nrst two floors, we proceeded to the attic. There we saw a rusty wash boiler hanging by a rope from one of the beams between two posts and so fixed that the least draught would make it hit one of the posts thereby causing the hollow sound. FLORENCE SAWYER, Div. L-7 HE DOES NOT UNDERSTAND Upon Tony's arrival in New York, he was met by a wealthy American gentleman who had been traveling in Italy the summer before and knew Tony. This gentleman took him to many places of interest and Tony had a very good time. However, there was one thing he could not figure out and that was the way the people of the United States talked. For instance, after dinner the gentleman took Tony riding in his automobile. They stopped to get gasoline for the car and the gentleman said. Fill me up. XVe have just had dinner and why does he want to be filled up? wondered Tony. Later, the gentleman bumped into a policeman and said, Now my goose is cooked. The policeman said. You're in the soup now. To make matters worse, a friend came up just then and asked, Are you in a jam? THE l-iNcoi.N1AN Nine Tony, much bewildered by these proceedings. said to himself. Where are the soup and goose and jam? I don't see any. Finally when the gentleman with whom he was with said. This is a line kettle of fish, Tony gave up trying to understand and said he thought he had better go back to Italy, where he would at least understand what was being said. SHIRLEY Wm-IAM, Div.

He has just had his breakfast and is starting to pack. I-Iey. Ma. where's the big black trunk, you know. the one I took last year? William, you know very well that trunk is just where you left it last year. under your bed. Thanks, Ma, you're a pal. I.et's see now. I need shirts. pants. socks. two pairs of shoes. Now what else do I need? William, don't forget to pack your heavy underwear and your rubbers. Okay, Ma. Say, where's my heavy sweater? It is hanging in the closet. And stop bothering me. All right. Here's my tennis racket. Boy. it needs some new strings. Hey. Ma, what are tennis racket strings made of? I don't know and I asked you not to bother me. Yes, Mother, but it does need some new strings. Say. Ma, guess what I just found in the closet? What now? My old snowshoesf' TPR THE LINCOLNIAN Well, William, you certainly don't want to take them to with you. - I know it, but what shall I do with them? Wrap them up and put them in the cellar. Okay, Here's my hshing rod, but where are the hooks? Oh! remember. I lost them at camp last summer. Hey, Ma. can I camp Now I have some money to get some hooks? Yes, and now will you let me alone to do my housework? Okay, Ma. you're a gentleman of the old school! Our friend Billy has gotten his hooks and after about two hours has returned. I-Ii, Ma, how are you? I got my hooks okay, and say, can I go to the Cameo this afternoon? There's a swell show there. William, you have a lot of work to do this afternoon and I think you should be satisfied with going to camp for the summer. I know, Ma, but this is the last chance I will have to see a show for the whole summer and Tom Mix is there in his latest picture. But, William, when will you do your packing? I'll do it for sure tonight, honest, I will. Oh, all right. William, but be sure you do, because your father will HOC want to wait for you tomorrow. So long. Ma, you're a peach! What a boy! sighs Mother as she turns to hnish the packing. GEORGE I-IAsKELL, Div. C-8 TALK ABOUT NIGHTMARES Last night I had a queer dream. It all started right after I relieved the pantry of two pieces of pie, three pieces of cake, two glasses of ginger ale and some marshmallows. The scene took place at a movie house right after I had done some shopping. After dropping and spilling a box of bird seed and two boxes of BB shot. I got to my seat and started to sit on a woman's hat. But I felt the pin and decided to sit elsewhere. Everything was going fine until some people behind me started to move out. After getting hit on the head with a basket. smothered by an overcoat, and jabbed in the neck by a few elbows, I decided to move. Istood up, walked on a few corns, fell into a lady's lap, and finally reached the aisle. When I thought I had found another seat I sat on a small boy holding a dozen eggs in his lap. His yelling and screaming beat all I had ever heard. While his mother yelled blue murder at me and I tried to apologize, down came a six-foot usher who guided me to the door. With a heave-ho, out I went and landed on the floor where I was met by a couple of laps by my faithful dog. Dad. who had heard the noise, came with the castor oil! DONALD MOORE. DIV. C-8 TI-IE LINCOLNIAN Eleven SAILOR BEN'S YARNS I was sitting on the edge of the wharf and he, Sailor Ben, was sitting on a coil of tarred rope. I had a Hshing pole, and although I did not expect to catch anything with it, I could manage to maneuver the hook down to the fishing smack below which was still loaded. The last time I had seen Ben, he had told me about his exploits in the Civil War with Admiral Farragut. He said he was a coxswain then and that he was the sailor who held Admiral Farragut to the foretops when the Union fleet passed the forts of Mobile. Now Ben was not over sixty-five so I doubted his story and later I read that it was a quartermaster named Knowles who was in the tops with Farragut. Today I started to expose him but he immediately began on another story about when he was chief gunner on the Olympia, Com- modore Dewey's Hagship at the battle of Manila Bay. He said he was gunner at casemate three under the starboard barbette. Ben claimed he fired the very shell that swept away the bridge of the Spanish cruiser Maria Ininira and exploded her magazine. I pointed out that the bridge was the highest solid structure and that the magazine was nowhere near it. That didn't ground him. He carefully explained that the shell passed through the bridge and into the forward stack where it fell down to the boilers and exploded. Sparks from the boilers llew to a small amount of ammunition being carried to nearby casemate. This explosion knocked a shell from its rack in the maga- zine which in turn exploded, blowing the whole magazine. That ended the life of the Maria lnlinita. During this time my lishpole had dropped nearer and nearer to the fishing smack, until now the hook had caught onto a pile of Esh on the deck. I hastily pulled it up, but the captain of the boat had seen me. He started for me. Exit-one boy and one old sailor full of yarns! EARLE TRICKEY, DIV. C-8 BUYING A NEW HAT - A WOMAN'S IDEA A new Easter bonnet! Shall it be red. green, blue or gray? She will decide that after she sees the hats. On entering the hat shop she saw a darling pillbox with a veil attached, After inquiring about this creation she tried it on. Then there was much time taken to decide whether or not it was the correct shape and a becoming color. After long consideration no decision was reached so the hat was laid aside and others brought out and tried on. After an hour of trying on hats of all shapes and colors, she decided to purchase the one she had tried on Hrst, but she was in- formed by the clerk that that particular hat had been sold while she was looking at the others. She was rather aggravated until the clerk brought a jaunty Twelve THE LINCOLNIAN green Alpine cap with a grey feather tipped with red. She purchased it and felt elated until she saw Joan Dixon of THE Dixons wearing an exact duplicate of hcr hat. This disturbed her a bit but it was the last straw when Martha Brown and Kathryn Ross wore duplicates of her very hat to school the next day. She was so exasperated that her new hat didn't appear out on Easter. BARBARA GOLDTHWAIT. Div. D-8 BUYING A NEW HAT - A MAN'S IDEA Mrs. Jones was all of a flutter. She was going to get a new hat. Not one of these extravagant affairs but just a plain. ordinary hat. After a half hour of critically surveying hats in the Hat Shop she finally decided on one. Outside the wind began to transform the calm day into a minia- ture hurricane. When Mrs. Jones emerged from the shop and started to walk along the street, her hat was gently lifted ol? her head by Mr. West Wind. It flew through the air like a glider but, alas. it landed under the wheels of an oncoming automobile and the poor hat was Battened like a pancake. Of course, Mrs. Jones tixed the hat as well as she could, but it still looked like a last year's crow's nest. She put it on for protection because it looked like rain. Then she went into the five-and-ten-cent store to resume her shopping. She went into the store a perfect specimen of a sad human but she came out very happy and cheerful. Why? Because she had heard remarks in the store about what a beautiful hat she was wearing. Now I think that if any woman wants a hat that is stylish. she should just take an old hat, make some dents in it, punch a few holes in it and stick a feather on it somewhere. Then she will be sure to have one of the most stylish hats in town. JOHN RICKER. Div. F-8 HELEN KELLER My mother was present at the meeting of the School Adminis- trators in Atlantic City last February when Helen Keller spoke. She took full notes and these are well worth passing on to the readers of this magazine. Of course we were all eager to see Helen Keller in person. and as the dignitaries came onto the platform we strained our eyes to see which one could be Helen Keller. We could not seemingly find her and whisperings about the auditorium told us that everyone else was searching for her. After the first part of the program, a tall, dis- tinguished person entered on the arm of a very kindly looking person. but which of the two could be the blind one? As they approached. the audience stood in a moment of respect for one who through mis- fortune had conquered. TPIIE I.lNCOI.NlAN Thirteen Probably the three thousand people who stood up had the same feeling of sadness. As she sat down we noticed that her guide kept her Fingers moving on her arm. This was the guide's way of conveying to Helen Keller what the master of ceremonies was saying by way of introduction. As she did her part that night every man and woman sat almost spellbound. Not a murmur or a whisper lest one miss even zt small part of it. This is what Helen Keller said: 'I was touched when educa- tors asked me to say a word to them and I must first say it was Anne Sullivan who gave me this privilege by imagining herself in my place and gave to me life and spirit which are so necessary to a happy heart. It is a revelation to me to know how students and teachers advance together full of hope for the future. To do this I know students must investigate life. Teachers today are doing so much to unify complex knowledge and to do this there must be kindness, cooperation. respect for fellow men, and lastly, they must remember to make every effort to grow in Gods image and likeness' This was the extent of her talk but, of course. these words came very slowly and very hard and not so clearly. but we sat at attention. 'If you were to have one wish granted. what would it be?' and h answer was, 'I would wish only for world peace and brotherhood From the nottbook of Mrs Roland E Stevens Brviiui STI vi N9 Dlx A 8 SPRING How I like the sweet spring air How glad I am that spring is here The little birds in their nests cry While larger birds around them ily The gardens are planted row by row, The farmer's no longer afraid of snow: The grass grows up all tall and green, And flower blossoms can be seen.

Div, N-7. er Fourzeen THE LiNcoLNmN THE FLYING DUTCHMAN The sun was shining on the small white capped waves that the off-shore breeze was kicking up. The Old Sailor sat on an overturned trawl tub mending a net. I had just arrived from the city to spend the summer at the little Hshing village. Nothing had changed since the year before, not even the Old Sailor. Will you tell me another true story about the sea? I asked. Why, sure, my lad, I'll be glad to, he replied. So I sat down on an empty lobster trap and waited while the Old Sailor took two or three stitches in the net. Well, it was like this, he began. When I was about eighteen, I signed up as cabin boy on a bark by the name of Star of the Sea. We sailed out of New York to Liverpool and when we reached Liverpool we took on a cargo for Australia. In those days we had to sail down the Coast of Africa, and it was the stormy season at that. When we were about halfway down the coast we ran into thick weather. It was rough and the barque sprang a leak. We had to pump day and night. It was thick fog all the time and the crew began to grumble. 'It's about time we saw the Flying Dutchman and that will settle us,' said one of them. 'What's thatf' I asked. Remember. I was only eighteen and hadn't been around much. Well, I soon found out, for before the fellow could answer me, we heard a shrill whistling noise such as no one in this world ever made. It made your blood freeze in your veins and your hair stand on end. There she was-a full-rigged ship beating to windward of us. She was covered with barnacles and seaweed and her sails were in rags. but she went by so fast that it seemed as though our own ship was standing still, Away she went in the fog. 'XVe'll either be in Davy Jones's Locker by morning unless the wind shifts,' the crew told me. 'Pray. boy, as you never did before.' And believe me, I did. About midnight it cleared up and we got a fair wind abeam. By morning we were scudding down the coast like thc Dutchman himself. 'Chips,' the carpenter aboard the ship. had gotten the leak plugged somehow and things were a lot better every way. I kept at the boys in the crew about the Ghost Ship till they told me about it, although I could see that they dicln't want to. It seems a Dutch captain bound home from the Indies met bad weather off Cape I-Iorn but refused to put back and swore a profane oath that he would beat around the Cape if it took till the Day of Judgment. He was taken at his word and is doomed to beat against the wind all his days. His sails are threadbare and the sides of his ship white with age, but still he has to sail on and on. X 'F if lk is il Here the Old Sailor stopped to light his pipe. I.andlubbers THE LINCOLNIAN Fifteen don't believe these stories, he said, but I saw this with my own eyes, and though it may have been a real ship, I d0n't think so. What do you think? And somehow I believe like the Old Sailor that there are things on the sea that people on land never would believe. Nm-ALIE MCMANUS, Div. C-8 WHY SOME GIRLS ARE POPULAR 'Cause they're Winsome and they're charming And their wiles are quite disarming. Don't you think? 'Cause they look so like a fairy And they are so very merry. Don't you think? 'Cause their eyes are always smiling And their manner so beguiling. Don't you think? 'Cause they're witty and they're chatty And they drive a fellow batty, Don't you think? JOSEPH DALE, Div, A-8 THE LEGEND OF THE WATER LILY Once upon a time the forests were filled with happy Indians. There were no wars among them and all the wild animals in the world were tame. There was no winter, just one long summer and everyone was happy. One night the Indians noticed a star which seemed to come nearer and nearer the earth. Night after night they watched it. At last a brave warrior had a dream. He dreamed that a silver maiden stood by his side and said, I want to live in your beautiful world. A council fire was made and the wise men decided to let the star live with them. Let her choose what form she will. they said. First the maiden chose her home in the heart of a rose. but way up in the mountains where she grew. no children visited her and she became unhappy. So she moved and lived in a flower on the prairie. Great herds of buffalo tramped over her. so again she sought a resting place. As she wandered about. a soft breeze bore her over to the lake and she saw her own reflection in the quiet water. She was pleased and cried to her sister stars to come down to the quiet water to live. The next morning the Indians found hundreds of beautiful white water lilies floating on the surface of the lake. The stars have come to live with us. cried the Indian children. Let us try to make them happy here on the earth so that they will always stay. BETTY GRIGSON. Div. E-8 Sixteen THE LINCOLNIAN THE LEGEND OF THE PEACE PIPE Once upon a time there lived an Indian called White Star. He was called this because he was counted as one of the Star Gods. White Star was a very kind-natured Indian and went from tribe to tribe telling the Indians to share their goods and to live in peace together. As White Star grew old. the Indians told him how much they would mourn for him when he died. I-Ie said. Do not mourn for me. because I will return to you again in a different form. Later White Star died. One morning as an Indian was passing White Star's tent, he heard White Star's voice coming from a plant which had sprouted during the night. I told you I would return and I have. This plant is to be called tobacco which you will smoke in pipes to be made from stone. I urge each council to pass a pipe from one to another around the circle and smoke it. This is to be called the Peace Pipe. And so. there was established the smoking of the peace pipe. Every time when the Indians smoke the peace pipe, as they look into the curling smoke they can see their beloved White Star whom they nicknamed the Peacemaker. EUGENE Room. Div.

BRADFORD JOYCE, DIV. E-8 THE LINCOLNIAN Seventeen PAUL BUNYAN - LOG ROLLER Paul Bunyan, the greatest lumberman of all time, used to com- pete in and win all log-rolling contests. Now he is not allowed to take part in them and here follows the reason. When Paul was in the contests. he rolled the logs so rapidly that hc filled the river with foam. The foam became so thick that he could walk ashore on it and this he always did. Of course, this was a very spectacular stunt, but it caused considerable havoc through- out the length of the river. Boats and logs would be thrown far up on the banks of the river: houses and bridges would be washed away: and all kinds of disasters would take place. Even today, after a storm. particles of this foam can be seen in and along the banks of many rivers. After this happened several times, people saw that Paul could no longer be allowed to take part in log-rolling contests. EVERETT FOYE. Div. E-8 WHAT CAN I DO? What can I do in this World so wide With this jig-saw puzzle of life? I want to think I have worked and tried And not given up the strife. I would greet each day with a pleasant smile And tackle my work with a will. I would help some fellow along the way Though the path may be uphill. And when in the end the puzzle is done And the pieces are all in place, I would turn at last to the setting sun And hope I have served the race. JosEPH DALE. Div. A-8 MY LIFE STORY All af xii 3 . s 0' ,':x 1c,. 'li 'W ax' il? i . Q 4 One of the Grst things that I remember is a big storm that whipped my branches and howled around my tiny trunk. But you don't even know who I am. I am a cherry tree. rather tall and slender. somewhat frail-looking after that first storm which nearly killed me. But I have been very happy. Often in the spring birds have rested on my branches trying to decide how long they must wait before my fruit would be ripe. Again, cats have sought refuge in my sheltering boughs from frisking dogs. Also, many boys and girls have played in my cool shade. My life story would not be complete without telling of the beautiful May day when a sweet young woman and her lover were married under my fragrant blossoms. NANCY LEE SCHROEDER, DIV. E-8 Eighteen THE LINCOLNIAN HOW FRENCHMAN'S BAY WAS MADE - A TALE OF PAUL BUNYAN One morning Paul's boy. Tony, came up to him as he was cutting lumber and said, I'm hot and want a place to swim. Paul, who was the most good-natured man that ever lived. picked up his shovel and started to dig out what is now called Frenchman's Bay. Paul was somewhat right-handed and threw most of the dirt over his right shoulder. This pile of earth is called Mount Desert Island. Paul worked until three o'clock in the afternoon and then showed Tony his swimming hole. After swimming awhile, Tony was cooled off and started to play. He threw stones into the new swimming hole Paul had dug for him. Each stone settled down into islands, all of which are still there. This was the only time Paul ever became angry with Tony. However, he was hot and tired and hadn't had any lunch. unless you would count a twenty-pound cheese and a barrel of crackers he found in his pocket. It made him angry to see Tony skipping stones into the pond which he had worked so hard to clear. So he spanked the boy so hard that it caused a thunderstorm over in Vermont. Then Paul set Tony down into the pond to cool off. BRUCE SPRINGER. Div.

K-7 THE MANSION No, it was not an ordinary house. One could see that in former days it had been a gathering place of the society of that time. One could almost picture the hansoms and other stylish carriages filled with chattering gentlefolk coming gracefully to a stop in front of this mid-Victorian mansion. THE LINCOLNIAN Nim-teen But now the place was filled with only memories, and the fine orchards in which the owner took so much pride were just stumps, anddthe old well-kept velvety lawns were covered with straggling wee s. With visions of ghosts of the former inhabitants aroused from their peaceful sleep, I cautiously entered, my brain aglow with thoughts of what I might perceive within. Step by step I edged my way towards the parlor which. on entering, I immediately named the pink ballroom because of its size and the pink hue still clinging to the time-weakened mouldering walls. The balustrade which was carved out of solid oak was an example of the craftsmanship of the once fine interior. Although entirely devoid of furniture, one could well imagine what fine pieces once graced the place. As dusk was fast approaching, and as I felt rather wary about continuing my explorations. I turned my thoughts--and sore feet- homewarcl. FRANK MURDOCIQ, Div. G-8 LINCOLN'S CHARACTER Lincoln the honest, Lincoln the true, l-Ie was the finest One ever knew. So tall and strong. So stern and brave, His eountry's foundation He helped to pave. Who was it that comforted When others were sad? None other than Lincoln Made people so glad. BRADFORD JOYCE. Div. E-8 NEVER AGAIN Oh, dear, why must we have homework? sighed Jane. lt was a lovely spring evening and all the girls in the neighborhood were going to play tennis. However. Jane must do her English before she could go with them. She had been out of school almost an hour and hadn't got anything done. Suddenly she had an idea! Why not leave her homework until the study period tomorrow? Mother would never know the difference. So, away she went without a care to play an evening of tennis. The next day. alas. found her in agony for. because of a special assembly. her study period was omitted. And thc next class was English! If the teacher called on her, what would she think? For Twenty THE LINCOLNIAN it was oral composition day and she had had a whole week in which to prepare her lesson. But Lady Luck was with Jane and she did not get called on. However, that night before .lane went to bed her homework was done, and never again did she intend to put in such a day! MARGARET PINKHAM, Div. H-8 DANCING Mother wanted me to toe dance. But my father said, Oh, no! He said he guessed that I'd take tap Or else I wouldn't go. I just sat there while they argued. Thoughts running through my head: Imagine taking toe dancing. Why, I might as well be dead. Then I said to my mother, You say 'yes' and Dad says 'no': I'll tell you now just what I'll d0. I'll tap dance on my toes! BARBARA PRESNELL. Div. C-8 THE SEAL OF THE STATE OF MAINE The Maine State seal had its beginning when at the first meet- ing of the Legislature of the new state at Portland, then the capital. a law was passed ordering the adoption of a State seal that should be representative of the State's leading industries. A doctor in Hallowell was asked to design it. ln the center he placed a shield containing a pine tree. symbolizing Maine's vast pine forests with a giant wild moose resting in the shade of the pine. On the left of the shield which is enclosed by a golden frame is a farmer with a scythe, representing agriculture. On the other side of the design which is on a field of blue is a scaman with an anchor to repre- sent the shipping and fishing industries of the State. Above the shield is the State motto. Dirigo, from the Latin I lead. Over this is a star of brilliancy and golden color, showing that Maine is the most northern state in the Union, FRANK MURDOCK, DIV. G-8 THE LINCOLNIAN Twenty-one EDITORIALS SPRING CLEANING To every housewife the word spring cleaning mean sev- eral days of hard work-taking down and washing curtains, wash- ing windows. cleaning walls and pictures, and countless other duties that go with this work. But to everyone spring cleaning should also mean the cleaning out of our minds. During the winter season we probably have met many new acquaintances. We have doubtless noticed some things we did not like about them. We often stressed these things about them and forgot their good points. So one part of our spring cleaning should be to change our attitude toward these folks. Spring with its wind swept sky, its fleecy clouds. its crocuscs poking their heads through the last remaining snow to the sun for a bit of warmth! What a splendid time to do mental housecleaning, to get rid of the unkind thoughts, muddled ideas and other depressing feelings and to replace them with thoughts of joy and growth and service to one's neighbor. CAROL HARRINGTON, DIV. O-7 SAFETY WHILE BICYCLE RIDING Safety while riding a bicycle is just as important as safety while driving an automobile. Some boys try to be smart and do tricks, such as hitching a ride on the back of an automobile or truck. Approxi- mately fourteen thousand children have been killed because they were careless and did not know the rules on safety for bicycle riding. Riders should always stop whenever a street car stops to allow a passenger to alight. XVhen one is riding along the right-hand side of the road and wants to turn to the left. he should raise his left hand and point to the left before turning in that direction. A reflector should be put onto the back of one's bicycle so that automobiles can see it in the dark. Observe the rules of safety and safety will observe you. CHARLES BARNES, Div. I-8 MAINE A VACATIONLAND During the past five years Maine has been developed into a wonderful vacationland. People from all over the eastern section of the United States come to Maine in the summer to enjoy the cool air and fine vacation opportunities. ln the winter they come to Maine for winter sports and in the fall for hunting in its large forests. In the southwestern part of Maine people seem to linger along the coast. At Ogunquit there is a large playhouse that attracts thou- Twenty-two THE LINCOLNIAN sands of folks through the summer. The numerous beach resorts also are a drawing card. The Rangeley Lake section in the mid-western part of Maine is famous for its boating and fishing. In the winter this section is a winter sport playground. In the center of the State we find many people gathered around Belgrade Lakes. Here equestrians exchange notes about their horses. The Lakewood Theater is another important attraction. Way down east, as people call it, attracts hunters in the fall. This is -said to be the tinest hunting ground in Maine. These are but a few of the better known sections representative of the endless opportunities awaiting those who seek an all-round vacatlonland. DAVID ANDREW, Div. C-8 SPRING FEVER Every year at a certain time in the spring boys and girls in school become very drowsy. It is not far from the end of the school year. We hesitate about putting much effort into our work. for it won't be long now. However, this is a great mistake on our part, for it will be a sad story in June if some of us are left behind when the rest of our class- mates go ahead. Let us all steer clear of Spring Fever! EDWARD BERNSTEIN, Div. E-8 THE ADVANTAGES OF SMILING Vlfhen you are out in the world looking for work, smile. Em- ployers like employees who smile and look cheerful. They think the customers will like you and do business with them more often. Smiling doesn't take as many muscles as does scowling. When you are sick. smile and say, I am going to get well. Start smiling right away so you won't have to keep on taking that awful medicine. Smile! lt makes you have a better disposition and brings you lots more friends. lf everyone would smile, this would be a better place to live in. JOHN KENNEDY, Div. C-8 BE KIND TO ANIMALS The way a person treats animals most always shows how he will treat his fellow men. No one who is cruel or unkind to animals will be kind to his fellow men. lf we treat animals kindly, we will naturally grow kind to all living things. This is one of the most important things we have to learn. for when we are cruel or unkind we harm ourselves. People used to think that only human beings could talk, Of course, there is no doubt but what humans have the most understand- able language. However, anyone who knows animals recognizes that many animals talk to each other-only not in our language. Now that it is spring and the birds are back. let us try to help them. Let us build bird houses instead of destroying eggs and nests. And let us be kind to all living creatures. ROY JENSEN, DIV. H-8 TI-IE LINCOLNIAN Twenty-three SCHOOL ACTIVITIES GIRLS' BASKETBALL Why is it that Deering High School has had championship girls' basketball teams? Lincoln Junior likes to think that it is partly because the girls have had the opportunity of two years of training here before entering high school under the guidance of good coaches. Early in December basketball got under way with Miss Chan- dler and Miss Ulmer in charge. The seventh grade with six teams played on Mondays and the eighth grade with four teams on Wednes- days. Letters were awarded to Janet Fickett, Patricia Haskell, Elinor Clark, Maryjane Gonya, Barbara Dennison, Winnifred Smith. all members of the winning team, Also letters were awarded to Phyllis Lowell and Dorothy Davis who were present at every basketball practice for two years. ANN KIMBALI.. DIV. A-8 EIGHTI-I GRADE BOYS' BASKETBALL During the basketball season, a typical scene on Friday morn- ings was a group of boys gathered around the bulletin board to see who had won the last night's game. The basketball season closed in March with Notre Dame team winning all the games easily. Dartmouth came in second, Pittsburg third. and Washington fourth. Letters were awarded to the four captains: Edward Flaherty of Notre Dame. David Andrew of Dartmouth, Malcolm Reed of Pitts- burg. and Frank Smith of Washington. Letters also went to the rest of the Notre Dame team: Richard Massey, George Dennison, John Goff. and Thomas Hennessy, The seventh grade winning team and captains also received letters, DAVID ANDREW, DIV. C-8 SEVENTH GRADE BOYS' BASKETBALL Early in December the seventh grade boys organized their bas- ketball teams. For over a month they practiced under Mr. Packard Tuesdays after school. In February, captains were chosen and then teams. At the basketball assembly, the captains of the four teams were awarded letters: Douglas Jackson, James Lynch, Norman O'Brien. and Merrill Winsloxv. Others earning letters were: Richard Skillin, Winfield l-lodgkins, William Dodge, Howard Watts. and Donald Martin. GEORGE Lopez, Div, L-7 Twgnfy-four THE LINCOLNIAN OUR CHAMPION BOY SWIMMERS Lincoln Junior High won the swimming championship for the grammar schools of Portland at the meet held at the Boys' Club, with eight schools reaching the finals. With Jackson and Lincoln Junior each having won two lcgs on the cup, both teams will be fighting harder than ever next year. We have the upper hand, however, with our ace swimmer, Robert Blake. back on next year's team. Blake was high scorer of the meet and Won the individual medal by securing the 25-yard and 50-yard freestyle events and was anchor man on the winning relay team.

Constance Nanos' paper was selected to be among those brought to Boston for the Eastern Art Exhibit. BARBARA Mosusv. Div. A-8 THE AUDUBON CLUB A Spring is the time of year when one thinks of a re-awakening earth. In the North temperate zone as the trees and flowers bud and blossom forth, the birds are wending their way back front the warm winter climate of the Southland to the North. Birds play an impor- tant role in preserving the natural life of many things upon the earth, more important than is generally realized. Throughout the year. we of the Audubon Club are constantly learning the most interesting facts concerning the language. the travel, THE LINCOLNIAN Twenly-Eve the plumage and habits of the birds who are both temporary and permanent residents of Portland, Maine. When spring comes, in place of the regular indoor meetings, the club members go out for bird walks under the guidance of Miss Goodwin. The increased knowledge in bird and nature lore thus gained will do much to enrich the lives of its members. CAROL HARRINGTON. Div.

We worked hard to supply every member with a cape and to prepare a good program for the Annual Entertainment. We have furnished the music for most of the assem- blies. We have practiced hard for the Western Maine Music Festival in Kittery. One of the high lights of the year was having Rudy Vallee conduct our orchestra in the Stein Song when he spoke to us in April.

Each member of the club is preparing a sheet of stamps covering a subject in which he is particularly interested. The club is now preparing for an assembly program which is to be presented to the school during air-mail week. This will show the various methods of sending messages by air from the earliest days to the present time. Another project undertaken by the club is the correspondence with stamp collectors in foreign countries. DOROTHY DAVlS, DIV. A-8 THE JUNIOR RED CROSS American Junior Red Cross activities were continued with more vigor than ever during the second semester. Meetings were held the second and fourth Thursdays of each month in Room 201 under Mrs. Whitney's direction. Thirty-five representatives met in this group. To our adopted institution, the Marine Hospital, the Red Cross sent at Christmas individual cups tilled with candy made in the Home Economics classes, Valentine memo pads with pencils attached were sent in February. In March our project was the Red Cross Portfolio which was sent to The Netherlands. This portfolio was dedicated to Princess Beatrix. It contained pictures, photographs, paintings and composi- tions illustrative of Portland, Maine, and Lincoln Junior High School. A later activity will be the raising of contributions for the National Childrens Fund. A Junior Red Cross Broadcast was given May 4 over the Red Network of the National Broadcasting Company. The program opened in New York with a symphony and chorus in the Junior Red Cross World Song, followed by an introduction in English, repeated in Spanish, French, German, Italian, and Portuguese. and a dramatization of the origin and development of the Junior Red Cross. Following this. the program was switched to San Francisco. where six or eight delegates to the Junior Red Cross Convention spoke. The program was then switched back to New York, where the Good Will Message, given at the Convention. was translated into foreign languages. The conclusion was given by Commissioner of Education Dr. Studebaker, who spoke for the American people and the Government on the meaning of the Junior Red Cross movement. THoMAs HOWARTH, Div.

Among this year's exhibits in the library. one of the best was the ship exhibit. Besides many pictures of famous ships, there were on display an old glass medicine bottle and a sextant which actually did service long years ago. The spring project in the library will be a garden exhibit show- ing the possible arrangements of little nooks and bits of ground into attractive garden spots. Emvaizo BERNs'rl2lN, Div. E-8 THE LUNCHROOMS Our lunchrooms are of great importance to the school because they furnish a place for the pupils to eat and enjoy their dinners. The girls' lunchroom seats about one hundred tifty comfortably. The host and hostess idea was organized this year by the Civics Clubs. Their duty is to seat the pupils, keep order, and see that any stranger is made to feel at home. In other words, they are to see that everyone is happy and satisfied. The hostess is Dorothy Williams and the host is Paul Keyes. The assistant hostesses are Jeannette Williams, Carolyn Manchester. and Ann Whibley. The assistant hosts are Turner Jones and Robert osen. This plan has worked out very well during the past year. DoRoTHY Wituaars. Div. G-8 The boys and girls in the lunchrooms felt that it was necessary to have some definite rules to follow. So a meeting of all the workers was called. The result proved very satisfactory. Each boy and girl submitted a rule and from these we made our code, which is as follows: l. Leave table as clean as you find it. 2. Drop paper into the wastebasket. 3. Talk only in conversational tones. 4. Do not visit other tables. 5. Do not leave tables without permission. 6. Wlien leaving tables do not talk. 7. Unless crowded, keep your feet under table. 8. With monitor's permission, you may talk to people at other tables. 9. Sit at table at least fifteen minutes. l0. Be as courteous as you would be in your own dining room. The workers in the lunchroom felt that it was necessary for the THE LINCOLNIAN Twenty-nine comfort of the three hundred children who eat their lunches there each noon to have screens at the windows, After a conference, the host of the boys' lunchroom, Paul M.

He came out and looked the situation over and. much to our delight, screens were installed in both lunchrooms. PAUL KEYES, Div. F-8 SCHOOL BANKING I wonder how many of us realize the story behind the small white slip that goes into the banking box on Tuesday mornings? The amount of money each one of us banks has to be recorded. nor only on the deposit slips, but in the ledger on journal sheets and in the school bank books. An average of 190 pupils deposit each week and over Sl ,800 has been deposited this year by thrifty students of our school. All the balances have to be added up and checked for mistakes. The money has to be counted and sealed in envelopes. Much credit is due Mrs. Morrison and her staff of bank tellers: Thomas Howarth.

The Secretary's and Treasurer's reports were given and the follow- ing club program was presented: A Map Showing Location of Birds' Nests. John Bowles and James Hanley: Hunting Nests. Viola Wilson and Beth McWilliams: A Bird Wheel. Judson Mer- rill: The Parts of a Bird Necessary for Identification. Arthur Emery: 4'Flight identification.
