EDITORIALS SILENCE Silence is goldeng speech is silver. We've all heard this saying over and over again, but how many of us ever stop to think of the actual value of silence? Of course, the compar- ative values of gold and silver can give us a slight idea, but that is not enough. Let us consider silence and speech in ordinary, every-day people. Do you often hear of a quiet person getting into avoidable trouble? Not as often as a talkative one does, you must admit. Winch does the employer advance first, the one who tends to his own business or the one who tells everyone's secrets with his own? The former, of course. Who learns from the experience of others by listening? The one who is not too busy talklng to listen and profit. All these examples are just to show that sile-nce is appreciated in people. This does not necessarily mean that one should act dumb and inferior, but that it is best to keep one's thoughts to one's self and not speak until speech is required. A little slip of the tongue and your most innocent speech may be misunderstood and carried to far extremes. When we were children we were told that Children should be seen and nO: heard. Although we do not consider ourselves as children any more, we should bear that in mind. Calvin Coolidge was known as a man of few words, yet he was asked to serve arfother term as President of the United States. People understood his worth, even though he did not attempt to convince them by speech. Many of ou' great men were of the same kind. The rule also applies itself to our school life. It is only natural for us to want to speak frequently, for, after all, God gave us tongues for speaking purposes, but we should give our classmates their chance to express themselves. For studying, there is nothing more useful than a quiet room to study in, so let us too try to observe the slogan Silence is golden. ' M. A. POTTS, 35. ETIQUETTE Etiquette is an art-the aft of doing and saying the correct -thing at the correct time-the art of being able to hold oneself in hand, no matter how exacting the circumstance. And like painting or music, the more you study it, the more you apply yourself to its principles, the more THE PEP 9 perfectly your own character is molded. Today we have a code of manners that is the pride of refined living. What is a gentleman? It cannot be ancestry, for often a son of most noble parentage is merely a combination of money and a name. It cannot be dress-for surely there is many a man who, despite his careful appearance of being Well dressed, is not what may be called a gentleman. it cannot be money, for then many a common thi sf, made wealthy by his ill-gotten money, would oc entitled to the name of gentleman. No, it is something that goes deeper than ancestry, dress or wealth-something that is nobler and liner. Perhaps it can be better expressed by this example of what true etiquette can mean. A well-to-do man, on a very cold day, stop ted to buy a newspaper from a ragged youngster who stood shivering on a corner. Poor little fellow, he said, aren't you cold standing there? The boy looked up with a smile and said: I Was, sir-before you passed. The gentleman treats everyone from the lowliest beggar to the most distinguished person with consideration. It is only the man who is always eager to please, who is as courteous and considerate in manners to his inferior as to his equal, that really deserves the name of gentleman. An incident occurred which might show one where the true worth of a gentleman is revealed, not in his stylish cloth, but in his regard for the rights of others. It is the little kindness that count. e , An elderly man, who showed quite obviously by his manners that we was accustomed to travel about in his own car, was on one occasion forced to ride home in the subway. It was rush hour, many tired men and women were in a hurry to get home. The man impatiently waited his turn on a long line at the change office, constantly grumbling and making it disagree- able for those about him. When he finally did reach the window, he presented a ten dollar bill and deliberately remained at the window counting and recounting his change, 'while the people behind him anxiously awaited their turns. When he did move away he 'had a half smile of malicious satisfaction on his face which said that he felt repaid for having had to travel in the same train with them. This man, in spite of his self-satisfied manner and well-tailored suit, was far from being a gentleman. Why should we know the way to do and Say things? Vlfhy should we be agreeable? It is to make one's life happier and to bring into it a new sunshine, a new joy of living. How can a person of low, vulgar tastes be happy and contented? He finds everywhere ugliness, selfishness. He finds it because he looks for it. And he looks for it because it already exists in the mind. Wit-h the development of the mind to regard the rights of others, there comes a new under- standing of human relationship. Where once everything seemed selfish and vulgar, one sees beauty and helpfulness. Instead of harsh words and 1 nkind glances, there are words of cheer and encouragement and smiles of friendliness. Etiquette teaches you the right thing to say and to do at the right time. It teaches you to avoid the possibility of mistakes. You do not have to use the etiquette of good manners, if you do not wish to. 'Certain not, you may do just as you please, but do not complain when you find the door of respect closed against you, when you rind that people of good manners bar you from their activities. Good manners is the only key that will open the door of respect. MARY KARPEN. TRY A SMILE We all know the familiar saying that laughing makes a person fat. As we see all the charming, smiling girls around us we 'might be tempted to doubt the truth of the saying. Yet, whetner it be true or not, what a great help a hearty laugh, a friendly smile, or a cheerful word is in our every day lives. Wealth or position can gather many fair-weather friends about one, but a friendly smilc will make lasting ones. In a single day we meet people of many different types. We would not be human if we felt attracted to all whom we meet. But a smile can carry one over many rough roads where dignity would fail. A cheerful bearing, like a good lubricant, can reduce frictions in all contacts. Those of us who are apt to show poor taste in our mirth should remember that he who 10 THE PEP laughs last laughs best. j Those of us who are a little too sober should remember that a man without mirth is like a wagon without springs, in which one is caused disagreeably to jolt by every pebble over which it runs. JOHN C. KIDDER. WHY THE DEBATERS SHOULD JOIN THE M AND M-ER CLUBS It is being argued that the M and M-er Clubs are strictly atnletic clubs, and that only those earning letters in sports may join. That argument has no basis, because no fact has yet been found to prove it. The idea nas merely oeC0.ne understood because until now letters have been awarded in nothing but athletics. Athletics has become established as the only worth while activity. Not only is this an absurd idea, but a dangerous one also. What are we in high school for? An education, of course, and what activity is there that is of more educational vrrlue than debating? There is none! Debating gives you the power of being able to speak your ideas on a subject with clarity and frankness. It gives you a sense of equality and ease before people, a broader view on current events, and a developed knowledge of the English language. And what do athletics give you? A healthier body, indeed, but statistics prove that athletes have shorter lives than ordinary people, because they strain themselves too much. And after all, life isn't a series of making a touchdown, of tossing a ball into a hoop or of batting a ball. Athletics do not give you as much to build your future life upon as does debating. Perhaps you say that athletics are more for the glory of the school. Well and good, cultivate that spirit of sportsmanship, but don't overlook the fact that the glory of your school isn't going to help you any when you're out of work or money, 'vhefr you feel your strained muscles stiltening with premature rheumatism. I, personally, feel that athletics are fine, and I enjoy watching a good clean game. But when it gets so that ' seems that athletes are on a higher plane L. an debaters, that is the time to put a stop to such ideas. , This year only eight students went out for debating. And why? Because many pupils, although they are fine speakers, feel that they are just wasting their time on it, and that they will get nothing for their efforts. The students of Mexico High have not given the oebati' teams of former and present years the proper backing. No interest has been shown and then, also, some of the student body do not even know that such an activity exists ,till they are reminded of it. In order to prove that the athletes are not On a higher plane than the debaters, let me say here that the Student Council of Mexico High has standardized one letter for all those earning letters. If we are all to have the same ranking and standing, why shouldnt we all belong to one letter club? On behalf of my fellow 'debaters and myself, I wish to say that I hope in future years not only will the spirit of equality be shown, but greater things will be accomplished by the debating team of Mexico High School. M. A. POTTS, '35. WHERES OUR SCHOOL SPIRIT? Did you know that school spirit makes the wheels go 'round in a successful high school? Let me tell you!!! It's the pep and spirit of the students that urge the Pintos and Pintoettes to victory! Iris the unfailing support of the teams, victorious or vanquished! It's the energetic efforts of the classes that make a grand success of our annual fair! It's the ceaseless drive to sell tickets for our dramas and all other entertainments! It's the mob attendance at our games and socials and other activities designed for our own pleasure and enjoyment! It's the coopera- tion of the students with the faculty! The wimngness of each and every one of us to take part in anything and everything concerning Mexico High. Not many years ago Mexico High, altho' a small school was noted, not only in neighboring towns, but throughout the state for its glorious school spirit! But where is that ramous spirit now? Is it extinguished? dead and buried? or is it merely asleep waiting for a stick of dynamite to bring it to action? No, it is not dead! Not quite! A few faint signs of life were shown during our fair and at the Rumford-Mexico football and basketball games, but thatls all! Two or three years more of THE PEP 11 this school spirit depression and it will be extinct like the Do-do bird! Are we going to let out tamed reputation be wiped away, forgotten entirely! Lets forget ourselves and think only of our school! Let's all do our part to make our reputation permanent! Lets squelch those who think theyre too good to cheer for our teams and school and instill the joy of rooting tor good old M. I-I. S. into every one of our classmates. 1 ' In short, let's get out and fight, work and root for dear old M. H. S. U M. STAFFORD. THE ROADS . Great is the romance of the road! The road is often compared to man, like man it is created, it lives, it prospers, it decays and dies. It advances as the years go on. First of all, we have the wild land, then a trail made by wild animals and after this we have a carriage trail. Thus it prospers until it becomes a thriving highway for the rich and poor, respected and depraved, in short, for all. The primitive people used this tough trail as a passage to their dwellings, the Egyptians first put the road to useg the Greeks beautiful and the powerful Roman nation perfected the highway. The unsurpassed Roman road, Main Boulevard, Fifth Avenue and the Path of Life-or Prosperity, road is everything that gives man the way to success and, undoubtedly, experience. Without the road, mountains and deserts would be unfruitful, for it would be unbuilt. How can people live without roads? Impossible. Why horses and other beasts of burden would be useless, automobiles and other means of traveling would be undiscovered. Think of anything -anywhere that could exist without roads. mankind is enticed by roads and yet isn't the road what man has made it? My wish is this- may man never wander from the road! J. TARASKUS. LOOKING AHEAD Mexico High School students hope to enter a new high school building before the end of next school year. Whether or not we Shall have this privilege remains to be seen in the not far distant future. If we do get a new high school, our mothers and fathers, the nearby schools and communities expect greater things than in the past from the students of Mexico High School. I All of us want football next fall, the Same as we always have had. How do you think we can have football or any other extra curricular activities if we haven't the money to support it? Let's all support this school of ours and help it reach new heights. The best way for every one of us to do his part is to join the Student Assembly of Mexico High School ne-.. .aii. that will give us a good start for a successful year. Students, it's entirely up to you. R. BROWN. TARDINESS I think everyone should have a slogan reading something like this: Always be on time. Maybe you prefer something else, but still there are not many things that are more important than being where you are supposed to be at a desired time. Anywhere you are going, be it church, schr-01, ball game, movies or any places of amuse- ment, always start in plenty of time to arrive there before if has stared, If you do not get in the habit of being punctual it may hinder you in your work when you are older. Sometimes lives are lost because the Person required to save it is 500 late. Of Course, it is sometimes impossible to be early, but if it i5 Pgssible, always to avoid being tafdy, In a case of a lite the firemen can't afford to lose any time. In the case of an accident or illness, it all depends on the doctor. I . A good place to get practice is right here In school. From the grammar school 'till you graduate, make a special 6ffOft tO be 0l'1 time. When y0u gg infg 5511001 Classes tai-dy if not Qnly hinders yourself, but other students as well. It diSttacts their minds and it also inconveniences the teacher. But it is all true as the old story runs: Better late than never, But better never late. D. BARTLETT. 12 THE PEP OUR NEW HlGH SCHOOL , Our new high school has, in the past been a dream, but not the dream has come true.

What a real pleasure it is to work upon such desk tops. l Now picture the same wall a short time later. Its former smooth, unmarred surface has been spoiled by marks, smears, writing and various other forms of disngurement. That same smooth desk top has rallen prey to knire, pencil, pen, anything that will spoil its smooth surface. X It there can be no act without some thought, what can be the trouble with folks who do these things! What strange psychological 'Kink' urges them to blemish, to mar and t0 destroy! Why do not they, like normal people, take delight in seeing things clean, orderly and attractive? I know of no better proof of the saying: Satan finds work for idle hands, for the hands that do these things are most certainly not engaged in useful work. How fine it would be if each of us would take it upon himself to aid in keeping our surround- ings as attractive as possible. How much We could accomplish if, as a group, we discouraged vandalism in all its forms. J Society has always had its vandals. Some were iconoclasts, some were anarchists, some were plain looters. All, however, had as an objective the defacing and restruction of something useful and orderly. 'lhese persons in our midst, who seem to delight in spoiling the appearance of their surroundings Qand oursj are fully as undesirable as any group ot vandals in history. 1 It should be the desire of everyone in school to keep rooms, desks, walls, basements, etc., in the best possible condition. The boy or girl who persists in defacing ...ll destroying deserves no better treatment than to be cast out of the group, as an enervating, disliguring V, . is cut out of the body. , We are looking forward to the completion and occupation of a new school. All equipment and surroundings will offer a constant temptation to the vandal ro exercise his pernicious practices. May we exert our group effort against him and his ways. The vandal is a scourge and a detriment, and has no place in our system. ANON.

LITERARY SUNSET It had been a dreary day. It was the kind of day that made one think: Well, whats the use of trying to do right, why not end it all? 1 Now, at the end of day, the clouds had vanished, the sun was setting. What a gorgeous sight! The western sky was much more beautiful than any rainbow could ever be. When the sunlight had almost vanished it outlined the mountain peaks like a zigzag piece of lightning. This sunset brought hope, courage, renewed faith in life and the promise of a better day coming. LILLIAN BBROOKS. THE WATER BOY At the football games I like to distinguish myself from the common rooters by working on the side lines. Since my stature is not that of a gridiron hero, I gain the coveted distincton by serving as bearer of the water pail. I have found the position of water boy a very desirable one, for I not only see the game at close range, but see it as the coach sees it. It see the mistakes as well as the good plays and get the benefit of all the coaches' comments. My greatest thrill comes when some one is knocked out and one of the players yells: Water! I grab the pail and run across the field, with the water splashing on my legs. I arrive, they all have Water and the player revives. Then I walk back, as if I were one of the players coming out of the game, and set the pail down. I go over to the bench and take my seat as if I had completed 9, difficult task, THE PEP 17 As water boy I enjoy another advantage after the game is over. I follow the players to the locker room and listen to them talk as they are getting dressed. I then hear both sides of the story. I hear the star player tell how he made a long run and why he went through tackle instead of around the end. I hear the coach receiving the congratulations of all his visitors and of the opposing coach. As water boy, I have the best of the rooters, too, when I read of the game in the paper. I can say with pride: I was Water boy at that game. WILLIAM FISHER VIEWS It is funny what views will do to a perS0n. From the windows of the school room I can see the smoke curling lazily out of a mill chimney and a haze all over the surrounding landscape. To look at this picture of peacefulness and quietness makes me feel lazy and at peace with everything. Sometimes from the windows of my home I will take a glance at the brook running down beside my house and when I see how merrily and snappily that brook runs, even though my thoughts might be depressed at the time, it seems to cheer me and put more life into me. Sometimes I will look out and see some bird way up high, drifting around and I will start dreaming. Other times I will look out and see throngs of people hurrying from their homes to their work-and that reminds me of the things I should be doing, and doing without any more loss of time. THOMAS POWELL. JEALOUSY ' Two young girls walked along the shore Of the Fairmount Lake, each carrying an armful of books. The statuesque, creamy skinned, blue eyed brunette on the right was Helen Logan, the acknowledged beauty of the Fairmount High School. Her companion and best chum, Betty Garner, was brown haired, brown eyed and tanned. Both fully seventeen and both Seniors. Helen had been brought up by her grandmother after the death of her parents and had been taught the old sweet, elusive charm of olden days. Betty was an imp and dressed trimly, but with more regard for long wear than style. Helen wore modish clothes of a Parisian cut, and truly looked as if she had just stepped out of a painting with her cameo profile and smooth, glossy hair. More than once had her selfish chum remarked to her mother that she wished she had hair like'Helen's, so she wouldn't have to wear a ribbon to keep it tempered down, as she expressed it. On this particular afternoon, Helen was in One of her rare moods of sulkiness. It was all due to the fact that Betty had won the award for true sportsmanship which she had coveted for a long time. A deep frown marred her usually smooth forehead and her tone of voice was cool and distant. It hurt Betty deeply to think that her being awarded a medal should cause this sudden rift in their lifelong friendship. In vain she tried to bring back the usual smile to Helen's face, it was no use. She sadly told Helen that she was going home by the main road and parted for the first time willingly from her chum. She walked along the path which led to the highway, sorrowfully, passing Mother Nature's works of art without noticing them. Her head was bent and her steps lagged. To think that Helen would let this come between them! After all, why wasn't Helen satisfied with being the im0St beautiful girl in the school? Meanwhile the object of all her thoughts was walking out on the wharf to sit and watch the waves lap against the logs. They had often done this together, and Helen was not even conscious of turning in at the wharf. She dropped her books and sat down. Suddenly she heard footsteps coming along the wharf behind her. A strange sensation went up and down her spine. It was rather strange to see anybody at this unfrequented part of the town. Turning she saw an old gypsy, in tattered, gaudy rags, with earrings in her ears and an evil smile on her lips. Come with me, dearie, she croaked invitingly, and I will tell you your fortune. Perhaps you will be famous some day, eh? She grinned toothlessly and advanced towards the now thor- oughly frightened girl. Not a soul was in sight and Helen thought of Betty with a pang of remorse. Oh, why had she let jealousy turn het against her beloved friend? In a frenzy of the gypsy's approach, she jumped up and called: Betty! Betty! Come and help mel' Like an echo her call resounded through the woods. Betty looked up with a start. She 18 THE PEP listened to see if her imagination was playing tricks with her. Then the call came again. She flung down her books and sped like an arrow in the direction of the shore. She breathed a prayer of thankfulness for the sensible dress Which did not hinder her any. With a last effort of speed, she ran out into the open of the shore and was amazed to see an old gypsy grasping the wrist of a pale and trembling Helen. With one frightened look, the gypsy fled and Helen sank down in a faint. Her chum revived her with the cool water of the lake and soothed her. Helen asked her forgiveness in broken accents. Betty cried with joy to think that their friendship was not to be broken by such a petty thing as an award. Together they sat side by side on the edge of the wharf with their arms about each other and their heads close, watching the sun sink beyond the horizon and the waves lap against the logs. M. A. POTTS. . RUMFORD FALLS Have you ever stopped to consider what this falls means to Rumford and the surrounding section? It is, indeed, a beautiful creation of Nature's architecture. Most of us do not appreciate it because it is a common sightg sometime just forget that you have ever seen it and let your mind dwell on this picturesque scene. f' just picture the water forever rushing on sensationally, hurling gigantic sprays of water on the wet rocks and the sun, Nature's greatest creation, allowing its rays to fall upon the sprays to form an impressive rainbow. To those more adventurous, picture the Rumford Falls during a storm, like a mighty army going forth into battle in a wild, barbaric fashion. Do you Wonder now why the Indians, in order to keep their lands, made war upon the white man? But how- ever, let us leave the descriptive side of it and consider its commercial purpose. In '85, where the power station is now located, there was a grist mill run by water wheel, which was built for the purpose of grinding grain for the early settlers. Much credit is due to Mr. H. I. Chisholm and Mr. . Pettengill for building a dam here and persuading the Interna- tional Paper Company to build a small axe handle mill. In 1900 the Oxford Paper Company realized this place would prosper, so the Company established the present Oxford Paper Mill, one of the largest in the country. Following this Paper Bag Mill was added to the International Company. In the years 1909 and 1910, a wooden dam and two generators were established, each having five thousand horse power. As time went on, the supply of water was not enough, so, during 1916-1918 a new dam was built. In the same period two more generators were added, this time having ten thousand horse power. Also in 1926 another ten thousand horse power generator was added. Therefore in about twenty years the water power of Rumford has increased and Rumford would not be what it is today if it were not for the Power Co. It is understood that Rumford will not increase its Water power unless Water iS stored in nearby lakes and released when needed. So you see what an important factor the falls is to Rumford and to the vicinity. THE LOST EXAM PAPERS Betty Browning shuddered and hurriedly opened Prof. Atler's desk. Yes, here were the papers and now to get one answer she didn't know in Biology and she would be all set to win the scholarship given by the school to the pupil who had a perfect paper. The paper was swiftly unfolded and Betty hurriedly glanced over the page and to her amazement number 4 could not be found on the page. 1 The next morning the assembly was called to order and Principal Collins, grave and determined looking, eyed the pupils with a strange look. I am very sorry to bring this 'before the assembly, but I find that it is the only thing for me to do under the circumstances. Some one entered Prof. Atler's office last night and took the Biology Test Papers, and that person had better confess, for when we do find out he will be expelled from the exam. 1 Betty Browning caught her breath. She hadrft taken the papers. She had just hunted for that one answer and she hadn't found it, so she had placed the exam papers back in the desk and gone to her room. ' , THE PEP 19 The next day another Biology exam was given and the judges were chosen and the whole assembly was called together during the afternoon for the awarding of the scholarship. I am greatly pleased to have the honor to give the scholarship to the girl who certainly deserves it. That person is Miss Betty Browning. Betty stumbled to her feet. She must tell them hgw She had gone to Prof. Atlers office, but her words were drowned out in the cheers of the students. The next day Betty went to Prof. Atler's office and told him the truth. As she finished, the Prof. laughed. Well, Betty, the test papers were found. They had slipped underneath my desk drawer. So I wouldnt worry any more if I were you. Betty laughed and through her tears she whispered, I'll never do such a thing again for I know that 'Honesty is the Best Policy,' forconfessing to you makes me feel so much better and happier. FAY DYER, '34, TWO FRIENDS Bill and jackie were both interested in the same' girl. People said it was a wonder how they could stay together, yet, they were chums. They had gone to school together, and now have hired an apartment where they live. Blil was rather plump, liked to eat ftoo wellj and didn't like to exercise. jackie was tall, and he liked sports, especially hiking and dancing. It happened that at about the same time both boys had met Patsy Walters, a happy-go-lucky girl, who didn't believe in crossing bridges until she had to. Patsy hadnt tried to find out which one she liked best. Many times people told her that she couldn't keep her cake ana eat it too, and why break up two good friends, for you know how they feel ? 3 So one night at the dance, Bill and jack planned to propose. Jack was going to ask her while dancing, while Bill planned to take her out in the moonlight. Ar,ah-it's hot tonight, isn't it? Oh Patsy, I lo-like to dance with you, what I mean, will you -ah it's hot, groaned jack, not knowing how to ask the question. jack, what is the matter with you this evening? You don't seem to be yourself, said Patsy. I I mean, Patsy, will you mai, replied jack. Hey, Patsy, you said you'd sit out this dance with mej' shouted Bill, O. K.,,' smiled Patsy, as Bill led her to his car. Say, isn't it cold out here? Let us put thhis coat on you. Patsy, will you-I mean I'd like to-. Another poor fish, thought Patsy. I Opening the car door Jack asked Patsy if that wasn't their dance. So the evening had been spoiled for both of the boys. They took her to her apartment and drove silently home. . Say, what's the big idea? Two is Company and three is a crowd sometimes, growled Bill. How about you leaving my girl alone, suggested Jeck. They thought for a while, and then Jack Said: Let's hike to Horn Mountain and leave an empty bottle at rhe top. The fellow that gets back to Patsyis house first can have her. Jack, being a better hiker than Bill, gained much on him. Bill took his time. He heard someone calling him and as he turned he saw Jatkie hanging on the lirnb of a tree. jackie so-.41 explained how he had got there. Bill decided to get the bottle and leave jack just where he was. Before he left he said I'll be back this afternoon. . Oh, say, shouted jack. ' what kind of a pal are you, anyhow? After thinking a few minutes, Bill deciced to help. If you'll call the race off, I'll take you down. jack replied: I'll even kick you down the mountain, just help me. 20 THE PEP Bill took him down and started grinning at tt jack. I believe I've made a mistake. I don't like Patsy as I thought I did, you can have her, said Bill. Aw, I don't want her, if you don't, said jack. Let's forget it. And they did. I OUR JIMMY Every morning after eight, Our history teacher again is late Oh here he comes through the open door With a smile on his face looking us o'er. He cuts up paper, we pass it around While he rocks his chair up and down, He asks us a question Qwhat can it be?j Name the most eventful date in history. I can see him now, as I stop to pause, Telling the rules fcalled basketball lawsj, To the boys who are wearing the orange and black, ' To the boys who today are wishing him back. He taught us to play, so hard and so clean For the glory, the honor, the fame of the team. Though the world can replace some men, of course, There'll never be another like our Jimmie Morse. JOHN MacDOUGALL, M. H. S. '34 NELLIE MILISHOUSKY. TO THE CLASS OF '34 LIFE Life is just like a dream- That has while passing through the mind Many pictures, swift and serene, In other symbols people, like you and I. In places the dream is vague, And the outlook on life if gray- In others it is very clear And sudden joy with gladness strays. In a dream are vast horrors, In life are evils unnumbered. At times the world is filled with terror And temptation must always be shunned. A dream is at times raged and troubled, So is life filled with sudden changesg At times we are saddened and gloomed, Again we are tranquil and happy. Such is life- With its evils and vices- With its stumbling blocks and-hardships, Like a dream that in passing left beauty and happiness. ROY, 55.

THE PEP 21 TO MOTHER The years have gone, but in my heart Is a love that will never die For the woman who struggled to give me a start Toward the goal she treasured so high. Nobody knows the sorrows and woe, That come when I think of her, , It seems that the best of people go And she was one, my mother. Oh mother I'll try to do my best, For I know you're watching from heaven, And I'll try to meet and pass every test And make good on this earth before leaving. It is hard to part with friends so true And it's harder to lose a sister or brother, But the worst that can happen to me or to you Is to lose such a friend as Mother. JOHN MacDOUGALL, '35. TO M. H. Sf' The school we all- adore- - The school of high ideals. Here in the state of Maine, Here in the town of Mexico Where we for manhood train. When we graduate forth, half.sad, half proud- With fond memories lingering bright, ' We shall meet the harsh, imperial crowd, We shall struggle in the fight. ' ' The weaker shall wear the shroud. When tempted-let us recall the honor of the sages, Let us recall the teachings of MHS And justice will reign throughout the ages. Let us recall the high ideals of childhood That we may always cast honor on the school of our youth. DAN CUPID AT M. H. S. J Fond teacher, tax me not too hard today- For I met such a lovely Miss That she stole my heart and thoughts for a day I just can't wait to receive that kiss. If, dear teacher, we had double seats, Why we could hold hands and say- With our hearts skipping beats Little words about the day. If, teacher dear, arm in arm to classes we could walk You cannot realize how sweet life would be. School would be a shady nook by a murmur- ing brook Life, just as in fairy tales would be. The teachers make us wait till school is done, But they just cannot understand, Soon they will know her love I have won, School day Sweethearts are never understood. fWith due respect to B. C.-B.
